Your Adolescent Street Fighters Prologue

Hong Kong
“Hyaaaaa!!!”, she yelled as she delivered her split kick followed by a series of lightening kicks. “Kikoken!!!”

“CHUN LI!!!!!”

“Huh?”, she stopped and looked at her master and bowed. “I am sorry Gen Sifu.”

“Chun Li, look at what you have done!”, Gen yelled.

Chun Li looked down at Fei Long who was sprawled face down on the ground. He got up in pain.

“Li, (cough) do I have to explain (cough) to you what sparring means?”, he asked annoyingly.

“Oh, Fei Long!”, she helped him walk over to the bench. “I am sooo sorry! I guess…I…uh…got carried away.”

“Chun Li”, began her master. “Your temper is getting worse and worse. All you ever think about is getting revenge. You have wounded 4 fellow disciples already!”

“Sifu”. Chun Li got down on her knees. “Please excuse my behavior. It’s just that I…”

“No more excuses Chun Li”, Gen interrupted, shaking his head. “You’ve gotten into fights almost every day at school and…”

“They tease me! They call me an orphan and that…”

“You need to calm yourself and being in school with the others who tease you won’t help.”

“What are you trying to say?”, asked Chun Li. She was scared of what he would say.

“Chan Ping’s daughter went to school in America on a foreign exchange program, I think you should do the same.”, said Gen.

“WHAT?!” Chun Li srang up on her feet. “You’re kicking me out of the dojo?!” She was outraged.

“Now relax, Chun Li” Gen’s face softened. “It will only be for 1 year. You need to be far away from the people here who gossip about you and…the incident”, he said sadly. “I already arranged for you to go. Trust me, it will do you some good.”

“No, it won’t!” Chun Li shouted on the verge of tears. How could she leave her friends here at the dojo and Master Gen.

“Aw c’mon Li, it won’t be so bad. You’ll get to see America and…” Fei Long was cut off.

“Shut up!”, screamed Cun Li

“Fei Long, I’ve arranged for you to go with her”, said Gen. “YOU WHAT?!”, Fei Long was shocked.

“She needs someone to take care of her. I wasn’t going to send her there by herself. I trust you will keep a good watch over her”

“But Sifu,…what about my movie?”

“Even young movie stars need schooling”

“$%*@ this!”

“Fei Long!”

“Sorry Gen Sifu”

Japan
“Sensei, must I go live in America?” asked Ryu, hoping for a different answer.

“Ryu-san, it will be good for you to see Ken again and…”

Ryu interrupted him. “I can visit Ken anytime, but why must I live there?”

“Ryu-san, I will be journeying to find my brother and it may take as long as a year. You shouldn’t stay here by yoursel-“

“Why not? I don’t really want to go to school in America” Sensei Gouken gave him a stern look. “We discussed this already Ryu-san”

“Who will take care of the dojo?”

“Shitoshi (a farmer) will come by from time to time. You need not to worry. Now go gather what you need. I have already made arrangements with Ken. I’ll see you when I get back. Rest early, you leave tomorrow.” With that, Sensei Gouken left to go to his room.
