HONG KONG GENERAL HOSPITAL CHINA

Chun li was waiting nervously for the doctor to tell her Ryu's condition. She was pacing back and forth for the past hour to try and cool down . "Why does something always have to happen every time you come to visit Ryu?" she thought to herself. She stopped pacing when a doctor came out of the E.R room. "Miss Xiang?" Chun li faced him "Is Ryu going to be okay?" she asked with a faint note of panic in her voice. The doctor smiled "He is stabile at the moment." Chun li felt as if a huge load was taken off her heart. " I must comment your friend is very strong few people have survived such injuries while in a feverish state his body is in increadibly good shape. He will be realised tomorrow". Chun li asked the doctor if she could see Ryu. He nodded and lead her to a room. Ryu was sleeping peacefully he had bandages on his left shoulder and tubes in his nose. Chun li felt such relief on the fact he would survive. When he came to her apartment she was afraid he would die in her arms. she sat in chair next to him and gently passed her hand in his wild dark hair. 2 hours later Chun li was already sleeping in the chair next to Ryu when she woke up because of Ryu's groans and mumbles "No..leave them alone you fiend" then he woke up violently ripping the cords while shouting "no!!!!!" sweating his eyes opened looking around wildly for a moment and then returned to their calm normal brown. Chun li was starteled with the scream and the glint of insanity that shone in his eyes just a moment ago. Ryu was sweating and breathing heavily. "Chun li, youre okay". She smiled "Yeah I'm fine, its you I'm worried about you almost died on me" she said tears beginning to form in her eyes "I...I was so afraid for you she said while she hugged Ryu. He smiled and calmed her down. "I always did know how to make an entrance" he joked. She punched him lightly on his good right shoulder. "Don't you ever do that again you hear!" she said with a slight sniff. Ryu nodded I promise I will try to keep safer in the future". She then knew its time to ask him a few questions now that he is awake. "Ryu, Why did you miss the party you promised to come to?" Ryu gazed to the floor "I..I'm sorry I was caught up with training because Akuma challenged me". Chun li frowned and replied "Ryu you promised" She said in a dissapoited voice. Ryu blushed and held her face in his hand "Chun li I promise you I will make it up to you. she turned around in disbelief. "I know, this week I'll be at your service. I shall do as you ask and train only in before dawn and late at night O.K" he asked with a pleading tone. Chun li considered his offer and accecpted "I just can't refuse a begging man. she giggled a bit "O.k Ryu we are gonna have some fun this week. But I'm warning you if you break your promise this time without a better reason then forgetting I send you to the hospital in a worst state than Akuma could ever put you in" she poked him in the chest.Ryu didn't doubt the seriosness of the last statement and swore in his heart he would do enything to please her because he was beginning to understand just how important she really is to him.

Interpol-Mi6 joined base N.Y U.S.A

Cammy lead Guile to a room in the basement of the complex. When Guile entered the room he was greated by his old friends Ken,Guy and Dan. Guile asked Cammy "Where is Chun li she is with Interpol right" Cammy shrugged "I don't know,I called her last night but no one answered". Ken approached "So Cammy I wonder,are you guys looking for my old pal Ryu. You know he's the guy that whooped Bison" Cammy answered him "I know, we're looking for him. But as usual he is hard to track." She left him and Guile and stood on a little stage. "Gentlemen please be seated so the briefing may begin" a few minutes later when everybody sat quietly she began. "we've summoned you here because we need youre help." a picture appeared behind her on a view screen showing a village burning and people running it changed to others showing disasters to populated areas througthout Asia. "We know a new organization is behind these attacks, We do not know who leads them and we haven't been able to capture even one enemy soldier its as if they are shadows they are seen attacking and then the next thing you know the vanish". All we know is that every squad we sent after them was found slain without any signs of confict. Meaning they are very clever assasins. Every time we think we found their base we learn they switched locations we need top ranking fighters as yourselves to infiltrate these areas and try to find some information. Usually we wouldn't bother you but we recieved information from a secret source which shows they have recruited some extremely dangerous people" the screen changed to a picture of Akuma. Everyone ghasped Ken yelled "You gotta be kidding Akuma would rather die before he works for someone else" Cammy sighed "I know its hard to believe but are contacts in Japan told us that Ryu beat Akuma and we quess Akuma is using this organizations resources to help him find Ryu". next picture showed the four leaders of Shadowlaw. "We think the leader or leaders are recruiting these warriors to help them against anyone who dares challenge them. That is Why we need you're help". The lights turned on and the view screen rose into a hole in the ceiling. "So are you with us?" she asked slowly everyone nodded. "Good I'll brief you on are flight. "Hey, Wait a minute at least give us a couple of days to pack and get ready" ken shouted. Cammy nodded "I'll meet you in N.Y airport gate 25 to Hong Kong in one week".

MOUNTAIN BASE IN THE HIMYLAYAS

Akuma was training in a gym. He was impressed with his employers style, Despite the fact they agreed to be partners he knew better. He was glad he joined because when that crazy shadowbane conquers the world he gets an entire country to rule and he liked the idea because he would be in complete control.He began with a simple kata punch,swat,kick,spin kick,backfist slowly he started to speed up his attacks putting more power in the moves using more powerful attacks. His right eye glew with red power and joy as he smashed the wodden dummies and punching bags. For the first tim in his life Akuma felt he must train for a upcoming fight. He was determined to beat Ryu at any cost. He heard the door open but continued to train in full force. "Akuma, so nice to see you again old friend". Akuma stopped at the sound of Bison's voice. "He didn't tell me he needed a new guard dog" Akuma teased Bison. Bisons eyes glew with purple energy you insolent fool you dare mock M.Bison he teleported a few inches in front of Akuma and gazed at him and his jaw dropped "Who could of scared you like that" Akuma growled "the same one that beat you and started the crumbling of you're empire. they both spat a word in a tone filled with hate "Ryu". "Akuma you know Shadowbane is insane, right" Bison asked. Akuma whispered " be silent his spies are everywhere. listen I trust you more than that fool. so here's the deal. We use him to take care of our foes and then together we turn on him that way we will most certainly defeat him" Bison nodded "lets sign this with our blood so it cannot be broken each cut his thumb and touched the others. "Our blood is now mixed Bison, until this is over we are brothers in blood and will fight together to the end".

Bison grinned "When this is over we go back to enemy status" Akuma nodded. They shook hands and left eachother.
