By Eliad Sholomovich

TOWN NEAR THE MOUNTAIN OF MORDARIA

Ryu was surrounded by ten huge neo-orogs(orc-troll hybrid).He was in his stance and waiting for them to approach. One lunged at him swinging his fist. Ryu ducked and jumped to his left to avoid a punch from another neo-orog.

Ryu landed away from them. "Where are the innhabitents of this city?" Ryu asked. One of the creatures laughed. "They ran away from our army you foolish human. If you had half a mind you and your friends would too. But you wanted to be heroes so no your friends will pay when our general finds them" Ryu sensed his companions were in danger just like him if not worse. "I must find them and help them" Ryu thought.

His line of thought was cut by a neo-orog trying to kick him. Ryu swatted the kick and reverse side kicked his attacker's chest. Then ducked under a punch coming from behind. He grabbed the neo-orog's arm and threw him over his shoulder.

The beast crashed into the neo-orog ryu kicked. Ryu then sensed three approaching. He channeled his Chi. Blue energy amassed into his palms. He thrusted his hands "Hadouken" he shouted and nailed one in the chest.

He then jumped high. The two neo-orog's passed under him. He summersaulted backwards and landed on his feet. One of them surprised him by hammering his back. Ryu landed the air knocked out of his lungs.

The neo-orog picked him up and gave him a vicious headbutt. Ryu felt dizzy.Blood flew from his mouth a he bit his tounge. He shook the dizziness away. But then looked forward and saw the wall approaching. The neo-orog had threw him at the wall.

Ryu quickly brought his feet forward. He planted his feet on the wall and kicked. He launchd into the air. He landed behind the neo-orog that threw him. Ryu waited for him to turn around.

The neo-orog punched but Ryu dodjed and kicked him. The neo-orog growled and kicked at Ryu. Ryu ducked and swept his feet. The neo-orog got up "Would you stand still you blasted human" He lunged at Ryu. Ryu rolled aside.

The neo-orog crashed into two of his companions. Ryu channeled his Chi into his palms. yellow lightning amassed into a huge dense ball of energy. Ryu aimed it at the three neo-orogs. He let the Chi loose. The huge Denjin Hadouken flew towards them. Two jumped out of the way but one of them. was nailed in the chest.

He was lifted off his feet. He crashed into a nearby house. He slammed threw the wall and lay on the house's floor. Ryu them sensed the four approaching.

He backed himself. towards the wall. He was surrounded they all lunged Ryu lept high and avoided them. But in midair he was hit by something we increadible force. He fell to the ground .

He turned around to see one of them holding a wooden pole. it was 8 feet long and half a 20 cm thick. Luckly Ryu's head wound wasn't hit. the neo-orog swung again intending to squash Ryu. Ryu rolled aside. He avoided another swing. Ryu's shoulder started hurting again from the hit and the use of his arm so much under a short period of time.

"D*mn this shoulder" he muttered. His arm was now hanging since he couldn't use his shoulder. The neo-orogs laughed. Ryu channeled his chi. Yes,underestimate me and come closer" Ryu thought.

They did as he expected they surrounded him. Ryu waited until they were a foot away before leaping into the air and spinning into a shinkuu tatsumakisimpuukayku. The neo-orogs were surprised and nailed multiple times in the face. They fell backwards uncontious.

Ryu landed and then felt a kick to his back. He fell to the ground heavily. The a punch to the back. Then he was pelted by multiple blows by a neo-org. "You actually thought you can win you puny little human." It spoke

Ryu tried to get up but the neo-orog kept kicking and punching him down. Ryu looked at the neo-orog and saw it was the one he nailed with the Denjin Hadouken. Ryu was in pain. four of his ribs were dangerously close to being broken plus his shoulder was in really bad shape.

It was bleeding again and was also broken now. Ryu clenched his teeth. He channeled his chi. "Must beat him now,Must help my friends." He teleported away.

The neo-orog was confused "Hey where'd ya go you little coward?" Ryu teleported behind him. "Shin..." he whispered. The neo-orog turned around with a backfist.

Ryu ducked and yelled "SHORYUKEN" he lept into the true rising dragon punch. he slammed into the neo-orog's jaw with his good fist covered with blue flames. He lifted him off his feet covered with flames. The neo-orog screamed in pain.

He fell to the ground limp. Ryu landed. He was weak and dizzy. But he ignored it "Must warn the others". He started running towards the gate.

MEANWHILE IN THE MEADOW

The group was also surrounded by many neo-orogs. They approached and attacked. Chunli was attacked by one. She dodjed his punch and quickly palm striked his chest. Then she jumped over him and stomped his head.

The monster grabbed his head. Then when Chunli landed. She was about to shoot a kikoken but was hit by a kick from behind.The other neo-orog smiled as he loomed above her. He was to stomp her.She quickly rolled aside and channled her chi.

She hit him with her lightning kicks. The neo-orog shook his head. He kicked at her. Chunli heard another one approach from behind. She lept high and landed behind the neo-orog.It kicked its companion.

Then Chunli channeled her Chi.She raised her hands and nailed the two neo-orogs with a Chou Kikosho. They flew backwards. then she heard a branch break from behind.

She turned to she a neo-orog about to hammer her. She knew she couldn't block or dodje. Then the neo-orog was kicked aside. "Watch your flanks Luv" Cammy said as she kicked the neo-orog.

Cammy then kicked his groin.The neo-orog bent forward groaning. Cammy kneed his face. Then she turned around and blocked a blow from a neo-orog. She was pushed away they truly had increadible strength. Cammmy punched one he laughed and punched her chest.

She was sent flying she slammed into a tree with a loud thud. The monster approached. She pretended to be uncontious then when he was close enough she put her feet around his head and slammed it forcefully into the tree.

The neo orog held its head. Cammy kicked its chest and roundhoused him. She then swept his feet. The neo-orog fell. She lept above him and ran to help Guy.

Guy was being attacked by three neo-orogs. Guy with his speed avoided them. He kicked one and then lept above them. He ran and roundhoused one. He grabbed its head and pelted it with vicious knees. He landed and was kicked in the side. Then a neo-orog grabbed him by the gi. It was about to break his neck when suddenly it let go. Cammy had just saved his live by kicking that creature.

He fell and then channeled his own Chi. he jumped forward and used his super move he pelted the neo-orog with kicks and punches. The neo-orog staggered and Guy grinned as he kicked his head. The neo-orog fell.

Meanwhile Dan and Guile were facing four. Dan kicked one and then hit him with a Gadouken. When the neo-orog lunged Dan sidestepped and Guile hit him with a Flash kick. Then Dan jumped and kicked a neo-orog that was about to hit Guile as he was about to land. He then ducked low and lept into a high Shoryuken.

The neo-orog's head wipped back. But he recovered and punched Dan. Then he picked up a large stone and was about to squash Dan. Dan was wide eyed "Oh Sh*t" he said as he saw the neo-orog. Then he heard a shout "Sonic Boom" and the orc dropped the stone. It was above his head so the stone fell on the neo-orogs head. The neo-orog fell uncontious.

Dan got up and winked to Guile. Then another one attacked Dan. Dan motioned to Guile. Guile nodded. Dan swatted the punch and stuck his foot into the neo-orogs chest. Then he fell and threw the neo-orog above him. Guile grabbed his neo-orog and threw him as well.

Both crashed into eachother in midair.They fell to the ground uncontious. Guile gave Dan a high five. They both went to help Mariko Mel and Ken.

Meanwhile Baltazar was blasting Neo-orogs with fireballs and lightning bolts. Lorian was shooting them with poisened arrows. Brad was swinging his axe wildly at neo-orogs. Derek was slashing them with his sword. They didn't have much trouble since for some wierd reason th neo-orogs concentrated on the Street fighters and neglected them.

Mel and Mariko were fighting eight neo-orogs along with Ken. Ken rolled under a neo-orog's punch and lept into a shoryuken. Then stood and was kicked in the face. He staggered back and saw a punch approaching. He ducked and the neo-orog smashed a tree behind Ken

Ken took his distance "That could have been me" Ken said. Two lunged at him. He hurricane kicked them. Then Mel came from behind and nailed one with a shoryuken. Mariko nailed the other with a Hadouken.

The two fell. THe other five then looked around them and saw they were alone. The other Neo-Orogs were defeated. They were surrounded by the Sf crew and the other crew. They reached for their pockets and threw something and covered their mouths.

The Crew didn't have time to react as a strange purple gas spread amongs them. They felt weak and sleepy and fell to the ground uncontious one by one. The neo-orogs laughed and took out some knifes.They were about to stab them in their sleep

Shadowbane was about to stop the neo-orogs when he sensed Ryu approaching. "I'll give you a chance before I interfere" Shadowbane thought as he remembered the rules of his deal.

"No leave them alone you cowards" Ryu shouted as he arrived. The neo-orogs looked at him. His shoulder was bleeding and broken.And he was at least a foot and half shorter and was limping and looked tired and wounded.

"Whos gonna stop us you" they joked. Ryu apporoached he ignored his pain and weakness "Must save them My life is not important if they are hurt" Ryu said to himself.

The Neo-orogs decide to have some fun before carrying off their mission. "Why not I haven't tortured a human for a long time." one of the fice said and grinned

Ryu stood ready his stance was with only one hand guarding his face since his other hand was out of comission. They approached him their sharp yellow teeth showing.

Ryu channeled Chi threw his body to avoid falling to exhaustion.
