Shin-Dan Ch.4 First Blood
By Dan

Akuma warped foward toward Ryu at frightening speed. Dan warped towards Chun-Li. Dan grinned evilly, showing Chun-Li his impressive Akuma-like fangs. " My God... WHAT did Akuma do to you?..."

" It doesn't matter, Chun-Li. All that matters is revenge!" Dan leaped high, and Chun-Li readied herself in her fighting stance. Dan tried to fell her with a high axe-kick from above, and Chun-Li easily blocked, and responded with a " KIKOKEN!!" Dan was felled easily by the fast moving projectile. " I knew I would always 'fall' for you Chun-Li", Dan said, getting up. Chun-Li watched in part amazement as Dan's eyes took on the same red glow of Akuma's. " Enough talking, Dan! Destroy her!" Akuma said telepathically. Dan rushed Chun-Li. Ken and Ryu were both battling the demon Akuma. " Hadoken!" Ken fired off his projectile. akuma swatted it away harmlessly. " HADOKEN!!!" Ryu's bigger, powerful fireball had more of an effect. Akuma had to block two-handed. " Your power is nothing compared to mine, Ryu. You knew what had to be done..."

" Yeah, and I told you no. So you got Dan instead to submit to the evil intent. I bet he doesn't know the long term effects of Saui No hado... How it changes the person who lets it enter his life, how it makes it do what IT wants..." Akuma was tired of Ryu's speech, so he fired a red hadoken at Ryu. Ryu anticipated the attack, and Akuma's warp, and in turn, yelled out " TATSU-MAKI-SENPUKYAKU!!!" Akuma barely made a sound as he was hit several times in the chest and face. He wiped off the blood that seeped out his nose. " You'll PAY for that, Ryu..."

Chun-Li was having an extremly hard time with Shin-Dan. She was in mostly a defensive stance most of the time because of Shin-Dan's relentless attacking. " You seem to be...getting tired, Chun-chun. Maybe you should just LET me kill you..." Chun-Li blocked a Gadoken. " You maybe a little faster and stronger, Dan, but you still are a loser when it comes to fighting..." Loser! LOSER!?! " AAAAHHHH!" Dan screamed, forcing Chun-Li to step back defensively. " LOSER!!! I'll show you, B*@+% !!" Dan's eyes turned a new shade of red as he attacked Chun-Li. " Fukai-GADOUKEN!!!!" Chun-Li was blasted several feet from the compact blast of chi. " Damn! How did he..." Chun-Li didn't finish the sentence. Dan was on her immediately, and picked her up by the throat. " WHO'S THE LOSER NOW???"

Just as Dan was throttling Chun-Li, Akuma was seriously beating Ken and Ryu. Ryu tried to attack from the side with a side kick. Akuma blocked, but he forgot about Ken. " SHORYUKEN!!" " OOF!!" Akuma was sent into the air. Akuma backflipped, and countered the attack, and went into a defensive roll. He came up quickly, and uppercutted Ken into the air! But that WASN'T all. Akuma then followed with his Messtsu-Go-Shoryu attack! Ken was lifted into the air several times. Ryu began charging up his energy. " Shinkuu-HADOKEN!!!" Akuma came down from his assault on Ken, and couldn't counter the move!" BLAM!! The move sent Akuma crashing into Ken, who was nearly unconcious.

" Give up, Chun! You can't defeat me!!" Dan said advancing on Chun-Li. " I bet..." Chun-Li rushed toward Dan. Dan expected a high attack and began to block. Thought so, Chun-Li thought. She executed a flawless Axe Kick, smashing Dan square in the skull and jaw. But Dan wasn't going to let her get the upper hand. " KORRRRYYYUUKEN!!" Dan sent Chun-Li crashing back to the hard ground. " Ha ha! I'll get my revenge the only way I KNOW HOW..." Dan began to charge up his untapped energy. Chun-Li didn't get up. She coughed violently, and spit up blood. Dan suddenly surged foward! " Shun...Goku...Satsu..." Dan uttered. Chun-Li still wasn't aware! Dan was only four feet away! Dan eyes glowed red fiercly. SHE will be the first... I'll kill her, then I'll KILL THEM ALL... Dan thought, overcome with newfound evil. Ryu and Ken were still fighting Akuma, when Ryu felt the feeling he always felt when Akuma would perform the Shun Goku Satsu...but it wasn't Akuma! Ryu turned his head sharply. He saw Dan mere inches away from Chun-Li! DAN is performing the Shun Goku Satsu!!! The thought screamed into Ryu's head. " NOOOOOO!!!!!" Ryu and Ken both screamed, running full speed to Chun-Li's rescue. But it was too late! The blinding light...so bright... Ryu and Ken turned back to Akuma, who had the scornful smile on his face... The smile of pure evil...
