Love and Street Fighting Ch. 2
By Yusuke

In the town near the forest, Ryu, Chun-Li, and Ken are walking down the street. They see people going around the sidewalk shopping, talking, or taking care of some business. When they're about to go beyond the town, a loud noise lies toward the alley. "Did you hear that noise?"-Chun-Li "Yeah, sounds like there's a crowd or something."-Ken "It's coming from the alley toward us."-Ryu "Lets go see what's going on out there."-Ken "But, Ken. If this becoming worse, Gouken going to find out."-Ryu "Oh don't be so nervous, Ryu. We're trained very well under Sensei. So, we must stay alert."-Ken "What about Chun-Li? We must never let her get into trouble."-Ryu "Believe me, Ryu. I can handle this myself. Really..."-Chun-Li "Ok..Lets go."-Ryu They went to the alley near them and then sees people cheering at two men fighting. The three teenagers walk by the other side of the crowd and take a clear look at the fighting competition. "Wow! This is getting to be exciting. What do you think, Ryu?"-Ken "I think, it's ok. They're sparring each other."-Ryu "Like what we did back at the dojo, Ryu."-Ken "Yeah."-Ryu A man within the crowd shout in japanese accent. Bettting the other guy to win the fight against his opponent. The rest bet the opponent who's fighting the guy. This guy is 7 feet tall with boxing trunks and bandages on his hands and feet. He's bald too. His opponent was non other than a guy who's a half feet shorter than the balded fighter. He has blond hair and is a british accent fighter. He cover chains on his hands to grab his opponent and slam him to the ground. "Tiger ki!"-The bald fighter His opponent was knocked out so hard and was unable to get up. He was unconscious before he got to the ground. *Crowd cheers the huge bald man* "You're not a warrior, but a beginner."-Bald fighter "Speak for yourselfs, Sagat. You're too strong, but next time we meet, it'll be bloody different."-English fighter "Hm."-Sagat Sagat then looks to his fans and walks out of the alley. Before he left he turned back to the english man. "Birdie, I will love to have another fight with you. But, it'll be at the annual street fighter tournament. I'll be waiting for you there and of course it's host by me. The worlds strongest. HAHAHAHAHA!!"-Sagat He then left the scene. "This freak gives me the cripes.."-Ken "He's really strong, but my sifu can stand a chance against his fireball attack."-Chun-Li Ryu looks to the english man and see if he's ok. "Are you already? You put up some good moves there. What's your martial art?"-Ryu "Eh, it's not really a martial art, mate. I'm kind of a third rate street fighter. A brawler, mate."-Birdie "Oh. I see."-Ryu "You better be careful facing an opponent like that huge guy I fought with. He's well known to the whole world. He's the Muai Thai champion Sagat."-Birdie "I have enough info to know who he is. Thanks."-Ryu "Your pleasure, mate. This is the first time I talk with a decent japanese gu in english."-Birdie Birdie then look to Ken and Chun-Li standing next to Ryu. "So, those were your friends?"-Birdie "They are sir. Ken and Chun-Li right here are with me."-Ryu "Ok, looks like you three will grow up someday and become great fighters like I was. I have to be going now. So long!"-Birdie Birdie left the alley and so does Ryu, Ken and Chun-Li. "Nice guy."-Ken "Yeah, but he looks pretty thuggish."-Chun-Li "Well, what else shall we go on this town?"-Ryu "How about checking out for some more street fighting?"-Ken "Nahh, I'm getting hungry. Lets find something to eat?"-Chun-Li "There's a food court next to the marketplace. Come on."-Ryu They walk to the marketplace then finds the food court next to it. There are alot of people siting at their tables eating. Others are buying their food. When Ryu and his friends stopped. They found a table for them to sit. "Do you guys have any money?"-Chun-li "We do."-Ryu and Ken both said "We saved all the money since doing chores with Sensei in this town."-Ryu "So, you guys came to this town before?"-Chun-li "Yeah, but we never saw a street fight like what we seen at the alley."-Ken "I'll go get the food for you guys. What do you want to eat?"-Ryu "Ramen."-Chun-li "I'll get..uh..I know they barely have american food. I want some fried rice."-Ken "Ok, and I'll get Ramen and fried rice for me."-Ryu "Woah, you eat alot, don't you ,Ryu?"-Chun-li "I do eat alot. Food was my favorite."-Ryu "Pig."-Ken "Hehehehe."-Chun-Li "I better go spend the money for it. Be right back."-Ryu Ryu left to get the food for him and his friends. Ken and Chun-Li decide to chat. "So, what have you been doing in China?"-Ken "I train my washu karate with master Gen. Sometimes...sigh...those boys always start to get rought on me. But, the only guy who respect my abilities was a good friend named Fei Long."-Chun-Li "Fei Long? Does he train Washu with you?"-Ken "No, he learns a different art. It's called Jeet Kuno Do. Sort of like fast lighting kung fu. He surely got that hot temper when he's fighting."-Chun-Li "Cool. So , how old is he?"-Ken "He's 15 years old."-Chun-Li "He'll make you a good date."-Ken When Ken said it, Chun-li starts turning hot and she smack Ken in the face. *Wham!* "What kind of statement is that?!"-Chun-Li "Easy, chun, I was kidding. Hahah. You and Fei Long are just friends. That's it. Haha."-Ken "Oh boy. So tell me about what you been doing before you came to Japan."-Chun-Li "I, Ken Masters , the one and only. Born with my rich parents. It's boring. I've been staying in my room like a box. My parents hate it when I got into fights at school. Those punks tried to steal other people's money and I decide to stop them. When the principal found out. He really want me to improve my self-discipline. Even Eliza, my long time friend saw what happenned. She decide to support me and always help me. My Father wants me to go to Japan and learn Shotokan to improve my self-discipline. When I got past the whole test. I found that the path I done before was wrong and I need to learn how to fix the wrongs and make it right. That's why right now , I learned what's right."-Ken "Wow, that's a long story. How old was Eliza now?"-Chun-Li "She wrote letters to me and she said she's 13 now. Like in your age."-Ken Ken grins. Chun-li grinned also. Later, Ryu arrived with the food on the tray he's holding. "Here it is , my friends."-Ryu "Alright, time to eat."-Ken Ken gets his fried rice. While Chun-li got her noodles. Ryu gets the double jeoperdy. Both fried rice and ramen. They start eating their food until they finish. "Mmmmm, this is delicious."-Ken "Same here."-Chun-Li "Me too."-Ryu "Ryu, why do you like eating alot?"-Chun-Li "Because it can give me more energy. But, also, my Sensei told me not to eat too often. It will cause some health problems."-Ryu "Well, we must hurry back to the dojo."-Ken "I think you're right, Ken. Sensei is really worrying about us."-Ryu The three finished their food and left the food court. They head back to the forest as they cross past the waterfall where Ryu first went. "Ryu, can you teach me how to mediation like you did at the waterfall? You had so much power."-Chun-li "It takes alot of skill to teach you it, Chun-Li. It's called a 2nd degree meditate. Unlike the first one. I tried to keep my inner power within my heart. While my mind was at peace."-Ryu "Oh really. Wahh!! I want to learn it. Please Ryu?"-Chun-Li "Um, maybe some other time. I'll ask Gen for you."-Ryu "Ok."-Chun-Li Once they reach the training grounds, they enter inside the dojo where Gen and Gouken awaits. "Ah, you three have come back too soon. Where have you been?"-Gouken "We went out to the forest and then stop by at the town to get something to eat."-Ken "I see and what did you all eat, Ryu?"-Gouken Gouken turns and looks at Ryu. Ryu gulped then starts to answer his Sensei question. "We ate Ramen and fried rice."-Ryu "I see, did you three stay out of trouble?"-Gouken Gen finally stands up and walks toward the 4 people and looks at Chun-Li. "Well, sifu. I'm not getting into trouble. But, we went down the alley and saw a wild crowd cheering at those 2 street fighters we saw at the alley."-Chun-Li Gen and Gouken looked at each other, then looked back to the teens. "A Street fight!?"-Gen and Gouken "Yeah, master, we didn't mean to be in it. Just watching and seeing what's going on out there."-Ken "Tell me, who are those 2 opponents."-Gouken "A tall fighter named Sagat and the other opponent was Birdie."-Ryu "Sagat! The Muai Thai champion? And you brang my student with you to see that vile warrior?"-Gen "Um, yes. Is there a problem, Master Gen?"-Ryu "Yes there is a problem, but not with the fact that I wanted Chun-Li to stand out of trouble. It's just that he is a very dangerous man. Inside him was savage and cruelness. He was also in full control of Thailand. Mugging with drugs and crime. Very dangerous man indeed. Thank god, Chun-Li is already. I want to thank you both for watching her."-Gen "You're welcome, Master Gen."-Ken "For this time. I'm about to see that you two learned well and are becoming my highest expections."-Gouken "Thank you , Sensei."-Ryu and Ken "Well, I think me and Chun-Li will love to stay for the night, Gouken."-Gen "Then you are welcome to stay for the night."-Gouken Finally , they all paused. Then, Gouken resume his speech. "Ryu, Ken, you two continue training tomorrow morning. Right now , you may rest."-Gouken "Yes , Sensei."-Ryu and Ken Chun-Li giggles and she looks at Gen. "Master, Ryu would like to ask you for him to teach me how to do the 2nd degree mediation."-Chun-Li "I see and I accept the offer."-Gen "Ok, thanks. Ryu, sifu said you can teach me."-Chun-Li "Alright, come on. I'll take you back to the waterfall and see how I did it."-Ryu Ryu and Chun-Li leaves the dojo and head back to the waterfall beyond the forest.
