Your Adolescent Street Fighters Ch.5
By Silvercane

“That’s Balrog, with the blue boxing gloves on”, Guy pointed out to Ryu. “And he’s fighting Dee Jay.”

Balrog backed up and forwarded a rapid punch to the side of Deejay’s nose. He spit on the floor and got into position.

“Yo Balrog, I thought we wuz friends. I swear I wuzn’t doin’ anythin’ wit your girl! You gotta belive me”, said Dee Jay.

“Don’t you go calling me a liar!”, and with that, Balrog forced another blow on Dee Jay’s cheekbone.

“I can’t believe that they’re fighting already, on the first day of school”, said Ken, his gaze lost in the mesh of blood, bruises, and profanity.

“Well, Balrog and Dee Jay are street fighters”, informed Guy. “They do this a lot”

Ryu and Ken looked at each other. Ryu was beginning to like this school.

“Ooooh!”, everyone made a face. Dee Jay had just delivered a kick to the side of Balrog’s nose. He fell back in agonizing pain.

“C’mon! Get up!”, yelled Balrog, as he lightly kicked Dee Jays sides.

Dee Jay slowly got up, cupped both hands on his nose and straightened the broken bone. The fixing hurt worse than the breaking. Everyone heard the crack of him straightening it out and they looked away. Dee Jay shook himself and got into position…

“Not on MY school grounds!”, shouted a familiar voice. The principle. He was followed by security guard-looking people. They grabbed hold of Balrog’s and Dee Jay’s arms and escorted them inside.

“Nothing to see here, go on to your next class”, yelled the principle, shooing everyone away.

“I think I found it!” cried Pullum from under a desk in the math class. The teacher had given them permission to look.

“Oh-no-wait, it’s just a piece of foil”

“Keep looking”, urged Cammy, searching thoroughly through the back rows.

Chun Li searched the class, with her head glued to the floor, until she found herself out in the hallway.

What a waste of life is school, thought Vega. America has a lack of beauty. The girls here cannot meet my standards, he sulked. The most beautiful creature has just walked into my life, thought Vega. He was perched on a windowsill, when he saw Chun Li appear in the hallway. She had pale skin, rosy cheeks, brown hair (odd for a Chinese person) that was tied up in two braided buns on either side of her head. She was slender and tall and her legs looked smooth and delicate, yet muscular. Her lips were light pink and her eyes were rich brown.

Vega stared at her, desiring her. She has fallen from heaven as a gift…for me.

Chun Li was still surveying the floor, unaware of Vega watching her. He lept off the window sill and made his way toward her. She looked up, seeing only shoes, and came face to face with a tall and incredibly handsome guy. He had long blond hair, part of it tied loosely in a braid, behind his back and piercing blue eyes. They were like deep pools of intrigue to her. She found herself drowning in them. He took her soft hand and kissed it gently.

“Never, have I seen an angel of such grace and beauty, such as yourself”, he said in a soft, soothing voice.

Chun Li’s knees began to buckle. This was like an actual Prince Charming, from a fairytale or something. She was still staring into his eyes and managed to force out a weak “Thank you”.

“Allow me to introduce myself. I am Vega Fabio de Cerna. A well-respected matador in Spain and noble Spaniard. And may I ask what the señorita’s name is?”

“I’m, uh…Chun Li”, she croaked.

“Ah, meaning beautiful, like spring, am I correct?”

She nodded and blushed. Hey, what do ya know? The guy knows some Chinese.

“Hey, Chun Li, I found the-“, Cammy stopped in mid-air.

Elena, Cammy, and Pullum were standing in the doorway, gaping at Vega. Elena smiled wickedly at Chun Li and that made her blush harder.

“Uh, let’s go guys. Class will start at any minute”, said Elena, as she skipped down the hall. Pullum smiled and followed her. Cammy bit her lip from giggling and started off.

“Uh, wait, Cammy!” So where was it?”, asked Chun Li.

Cammy looked embarassed. “It was caught in my hair and barrette”, and she ran off.

Chun Li looked up at Vega. He smiled at her.

“RRRRIIIIIINNNNNGG!”

That stupid bell, thought Chun Li.

“I best be off now, my lady”, and he kissed her hand again and walked away.

An unknown feeling of jealousy came over Ryu as he spotted Chun Li talking to that Vega guy down the hall.
