Bottom of the Bottle


(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDVP-IEtBIY&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl&index=16   ) 3 bottles of brown liqur later, and he wasn’t even so much as buzzed. He was more so conflicted, not sure what direction to go. Kevin Chan, the famous home town superhero Web Strider, had become somewhat of an alcholoic, and he couldn’t even get drunk like that because of his oni linieage. Kevin had lost his direction, stting on the edge of an eagle head, atop a high tower. His mask off and his costume burned and singed from the battles of the day. “How all these –hiccup- super villans escape is beyond me…but I’ll keep sending em back…til they send my yumi back.” Kevin would lay back on the surface of the Eagle statue, and look up at the blue sky. It seemed to early to be getting drunk, but try telling that to him and see how far you get. Kevin was still upset about the death of Yumi. He hadn’t seen her in god knows how long….he missed her. He wanted to say good bye, but he was to busy with his heroing career to even give her so much as a passing glance. It was his fault…he wouldn’t have blamed her had she moved on to bigger and better things than him. Someone who couid give her the attention she’d never admit she craved. Kevin would sit himself up, drunkingly putting his mask back on. The buzz started to kick in, but tis was only a mental thing. He wanted himself to be intoxicated, and with mind over matter he’d put himself in a self induced drunken state. Kevin would go to shoot a web, but being off his game like he was, he neglected to pack extra cartilidges, as he’d fall slam off of the 30 storie building. His body twisting, twinning, and twirling, until he’d landed smack dab in a dump truck. The dump truck would’ve closed around his body and Kevin would’ve just been along for the ride. He was silent…the sound of the moving truck was soothing, and the smell of rotten bannaas actually had some appeal to them. The truck would’ve stopped, and when a garbage man opened to look inside, all he’d seen was trash. He’d scratch his head. “that’s funny. The digital weight limit said there was more weight in here…ah well.” Kevin would’ve snuck his way out, and stumbled to a park. It was barren, but he’d find a private circle, more like a private area, with what looked like wedding dacor, and he’d lay on a bench. His eyes shut beneath his mask, and he began to drift off to sleep. As if nothing was his problem. He didn’t even give a fuck about the up and coming sector games. He could care less! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjlKIqXAg50&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl&index=31 ) A figure would’ve emerged form the surrounding woodland area. He was massive in size,and had a very imposing figure! Something straight out of a hulk comic book! The figure however was cloaked, in a black cloak, and his face was covered out heavily. Kevin’s strider sense would’ve kicked in without a second thought, and just like that his drunken stupor disappeared, as his adrenaline was about to come into play full force! Kevn would’ve stood up and squatted down, placing his right hand to the ground, and glaring at the person. “Can I HELP you good sir?” the giant figure would say nothing at first, until his voice boomed. “You. You’ve…lost someone. Someone precious to you have you not?” Kevin would glare his eyes at the figure only to stand up straight. “Stop. You’re about to hit a personal spot that I’m gong to have to fight you for hitting.” The big man put his hands up in defense. “Please, I mean you no harm. I only want…to bring truth to the light of things. Things you were left in the advent dark about.” Kevin would fold his arms. “you’ve got 5 seconds. 5…4…3…2.” “Yumi Ikeda and Connor Ryoji were lovers Kevin.” “….” Kevin’s entire demenar shifted. His arms…fell limp. “Y…what? Ha! Connor? She’d never! They fight more than anything else, they’d never-“ “Fighters…express their emotions through one method. Fighting. She and Ryoji formed a connection that you were never aware of…until today. If you doubt my word. In any way, shape or form. Go. Find the Ryoji child, and ask him yourself. His personality will enable him to tell you and what you do from there…well that’s on you.” The big massive figure would turn it’s back on Kevin and Kevin would stand there looking down at the ground. Not quite sure how to feel about anything anymore…did Yumi….with Connor? These words plundered Kevin’s head…as he sat down on the bench, and looked at the ground. He remained there for the remainder of the night, and a little bit into the next day simply pondering weather she was truly unfaithful to him.

Catching Up To Do
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUIcvFv06WU&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl&index=91&shuffle=25686 )Connor would’ve been sitting inside of his jail cell with his cell mate butch. He’d been huddling in the Corner after his attempt to “break” connor in so to speak. If one looked in the cell, the bottom pipe form the sink was missing…and the man was bleeding from behind. One could infer where Connor put that pipe. Sitting in his orange jumpsuit on the edge of his bunk bed, Connor would be humming a tune, waiting for one of the phone calls he made to show some results. That being said, his prayers were answerd, as a guard would begin walking towards the direction of his cell. “Connor Ryoji?” Connor would stand up. “Oi?” “I don’t know why, but this guy bailed you out. Even after all your offenses, for not one, but two distrubences of public peace and property damage…wish I had a brother like that.” The guard would unlock the door, and Connor’s eyes would widen as Leon would’ve walked twaords the opening of the cell. There he stood wearing a black business suit, with the blazer open, revealing a purple dress shirt underneath. His hair in a pony tail, jet black, and his green hues piercing Connor’s very being. “Leon…long time no see huh?” Leon would walk up to Connor looking him square in the eye. He looked angry…so many emotions bottoled up into one, as Leon would lean forward and hug his brother. “It’s…been much to long. I’m glad you’re alive Connor.” “Oooooohkay Leon. Freaking me out. You don’t have tits, I’d rather not feel your chest buddy.” Leon would let him go, shaking his head, and similing, genuinely. ‘Still the same. I thought you died Connor…for a while I thought you died because I wasn’t strong enough.” Connor would scoff. “Pft please. I died, because that bitch was op. I’ll kill her if I ever see her again. But since the city’s still here, I’m guessing she got dealt with?” Leon would nod and turn his back to Connor, looking over his shoulder. “Come on. I’ll get you up to speed on as much as I know if you don’t know already.” The two would’ve made their way from Brick Wall prison, and stepped outside into Leon’s hover limo. The driver would open the door for them both, and allow them to climb inside. Connor now wearing a badge v-neck shirt, and some jeans with air force one shoes. As the driver drove them back towards Leon’s law firm and home, also secret base of operations,   Leon would’ve caught Connor up with all events he was unaware of. Including the almost secondary war, the death of Tomoko and Akuma, and the sector game details, along with other adventures he himself journeyed on. “Man…” Connor would lean back in his seat and sigh, folding is arms behind his head. “I should’ve just fucking stayed dead yo.” Leon would fold his legs, looking out the window. “It may seem like that. Sometimes. But it’s for the greater good that we live. Our lives and worths will be judged soon enough.” Connor would look over at Leon. “So…Domini huh? I’m gonna have to meet this girl sometime.” Leon would smile at the mention of her name. “She’s great. Better than any girl I’d ever thought I’d meet. She helps me in many ways, and cleansed me of my dark brood. “ Connor would sit up and laugh. “Good cause that shit is mad annoying haha!” Connor would knock on the window separating the driver and the back seat. “Aye yo drop me off at the federation!”   Leon raised a brow. ‘you don’t wanna go say hey to mom and dad? I’m sure they’re worried sick. Kat too, though I never see her around as much as I used to.” Connor would sigh. “yeah, that goes for a lot of memebers of our family. “ the limo would pull up and Connor would step out of it. “Wait. Here connor.” Leon would hand Connor 1,000 tanz in cash. “Don’t spend it all in one place. I’m not a fan of Yakuza, but I know you’re trying to rebuild. Also.” Leon would take off his wrist watch and hand it to Connor. “Take this. It doubles as a phone, so my offices can call you. It’s gonna take some work to get the law off your case. Before this omega gene registration thing, you might have been able to get away with stunts you’ve been pulling.” Connor would’ve shaken his head. “Yeah. Thanks in the long run. Whatever happens, I’m glad I’ve got you.” Leon would nod. “Be careful Connor.” The limo door would shut, and Connor would turn around, only to see Kevin standing right infront of him, seemingly from out of nowhere. “Eh? Kevin? The hell are you doing around here.”

A Confession
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDPHIQMSss8&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl&index=3 ) Kevin looked like a train wreck. He had dried tears on his cheeks…he’d been crying for a majority of the night, having his trust betrayed. Even if he put and pinned the blame on his own shortcomings….he still couldn’t believe it to be true. He didn’t want to, but lord knows what he would believe as his mental state was spiraling down. “Connor…it’s good to have you back. Heard you were dead….” Connor would burp, before rubbing the back of his neck. “Yeah I get that a lot lately. Sometimes I don’t think the world was quite ready for my return, if you ask me. That being said, the federations in shit condition. No ones here but lil old me. Til I get this place back and ru-“ “Where’s Yumi Connor.” Connor’s demeaner shifted. He’d forgotten…that during his and Yumi’s “fling”   that she was infact dating kevin during this ordeal. Connor would lick his lips, and look down for a moment before rising his   head back up to look at Kevin. “Shes dead kevin…she died a while ago.” He wanted to avoid telling her that she was actually off in the dark zone doing other things, where she was even Connor had no potential clue. Kevin would’ve put his face into his hands and took a deep breathe before slidng them down, and clapping his hands together. He’d close his eyes for a moment, getting himself together before going to speak again…he tried to keep calm…but Connor could feel the growing intent of hate in kevin’s being. It was feeding him. And while it tasted delicious, Connor had a gut feeling he knew what the next question was. And his gut feeling was right. “Did you….were you…with Yumi. Were you and her a thing?” Connor would’ve stuffed his hands into his pockets, and sucked on his own lips for a second, looking up and   popping his mouth open only to let out a long drawn out sigh. “Look Kevin. We were…we were both vulnerable and-“ “It’s a yes or no question Ryoji. Were you and her…a thing.” Connor would roll his shoulders, and decide to just give him what he wanted. “Yes. We were a-“



The First Punch Has Been Cast
Not even letting Connor so much as finish that SENTENCE, he’d slam his fist into Connor’s face! The impact mushing the skin of Connor’s face into one point, as his body was sent hurtling 30 feet backwards, down the road way of his home and federation! Connor’s body would’ve tumbled and tossed himself amongst the ground until he’d finally hit a dead end stop, his back skidding against the ground, as he’d then tumble once more landing flat on his ass. Connor would blink once…he’d blink twice, before he realized what had just happened. Kevin had just rocked Connor god knows how many feet away! His jaw was hurting, and he had a dastardly ringing noise in both ears. Connor would then look and see Kevin standing there walking towards Connor, cracking his knuckles and starting him down. “You stole my girlfriend. You probably did god   knows what to her. You get her killed, by being involved with her…I’m going to kill you Connor. I’m going to kill you, and kill everyone you care about. I’m going to take all my anger out on you BECAUSE YOU TOOK HER AWAY FROM ME! YOU STOLE HER! YOU FILTHY PIECE OF SHIT!” Connor would’ve stood up, and wiped his mouth off. That hit had so much negative raw anger behind it, and so much strength behind it Connor received a hearty little physical boost from it all. Connor would look at Kevin. “I’m not going to fight you over her…I’ve come to terms with the fact that I did what I did. I’m sorry, but I regret nothing. Got no time for it. However…when you go threatening my family and friends…right when I get back…I CANNOT ALLOW THAT!” Connor would launch a push blast form his backside, propelling his body forward, and clothslining kevin right in the neck! Kevin took the hit,   his body flipped backwards, only for him to land on the ground and throw a straight punch right to the back of Connor’s skull! Connor’s head whipped forward, before Kevin would’ve pulled connor by his sleeve, turning him around and throwing a chop to his throat! Connor gagged for a second, before Kevin would’ve thrown a right elbow towards his temple! Connor would’ve tucked his head in, ducking and bobbing his head out of the way of the elbow before leaping a bit, and throwing a superman punch right at kevin’s forehead! A sick “crack” echoed, as Kevin stumbled backwards a bit, but the fight was far from over. Kevin’s muscle mass had grown at least 2 inches ,more and he’d become a physical power house! Taking a wing chun stance and advancing twaords Connor as the ground beneath his feet shattered when he started to run! Throwing blow after blow towards Connor, Connor could only deflect them and dodge, as blocking them was   good way to get himself fucked up! Connor had just gotten out of a serious fight previously, and was right back in the fray of another! "Wham!" Connor would've taken a kick to the back of his calf muscle from Kevin's kick! He combo'd this by gripping the bck of Connors neck and pulling him into a straight punch. Connor would then pull a suicide maneuver and headbutted Kevin's fist! a crack being heard as Kevin pulled his hand back, shaking it a few times as he didn't expect Connors head to be so hard! On the flip side Connor would lean back having a gash above his left eye. "Damn! forgot he's. a physical chi user...his hits are worth 3 times more than my own! " Connor would've taken a step back to get into his stance, when Kevin would've come in quickly with a fierce sweep kick going from right to left. Connor would've lifted his foot and attempted to boot kick Kevin in his chest. Kevin would tank the kick literally shrugging the damage off and gripping Connor's foot only to flip hI'm up and backwards into the air. Connor would've cut a full backflip only for Kevin to reach out and grip Connors ear the moment he landed properly. in doing this, he'd sling Connor around and toss him onto his back, Tucking Connors head between his knees and locking it in place there! Connor quickly realized the situation he was in. "T-this is a Wing Chin finisher! and with his strength he'll kill me!...he'll really frggin kill me!" Connor watched as Kevin's fist was raised. acting fast Connor would've shot his left leg up into the air and impacted Kevin I'm his right eye! Kevin winced, shaking his head momentarily and reairing his right hand back anyway until Connor reached both his legs up and gripped Kevin's neck with his feet. "Play into my plan kev!" Connor thought. Kevin would've slang Connor up, gripping his feet and flipprf him as if he was flipping am omlet! Connor would've emitted a push blast from his body to adjust his balance and using his spinning momentum he'd slam the heel of his foot on the top of Kevin's head! enhancing his attack enhanced by emitting a pusu blast from the top of his foot Kevin's head would bend forward over along with his upper body! "guh!" Kevin grunited. "The .the force of that kick! Just what is Ryoji packing?!" Connor would land ad grip Kevin's hair and begin kneeing him repeatedly in the top of his skull! Connor grunted between each hit!



Purpose In Life
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBtl-kXK8cwn ) A sipping noise could be heard in the bellows of an empty cave once called home to many of the Ryoji family. Now it is   home to one man, and one man only. Ochigi Ryoji. Ochigi sits in his recliner, infront of the giant t.v screen monitoring the steller activity of the approaching incursion…of the planets aligning.”There’s…nothing we can do to stop this. But prey.” Ochigi would’ve closed his eyes. Spending time alone, he began to monoluage. “I spend my time here. Inveinting. Always pushing the next evolutionary step in technology or technological inventions.” Ochigi would’ve gotten up and walked past his work table. There was a form of robot on in, with design specks, he’d been working on, but never got around to finishing. He began to walk down the long pathway towards the armor. Areas like the Danger room, and the house part of the cave. All barren and empty. Once full of life, but now…again void. “I’m alone. I realize this…and yet I perservere. Is it even for the good fight anymore, well..” Ochigi would grip his chest, and close his eyes, winching in pain. “I…often wonder that myself.” Ochigi would’ve begun coughing very violently, hacking and coughing away until he covered his mouth with his hand. As he did this, and pulled his hand away, a few spots of blood would’ve been contained within his hand. Ochigi’s eyes fixated themselves on the bloody spot. “For all the generations that’ve come after me. I am the most human…I allow myself to be. I must. “ He’d make his way into the bathroom arean and open up a the cabinet. Reaching for a pill bottle entitled “infinity serum” He’d pop it open and swallow a pill, not thinking about the consquences. His throat flexed, showing it all went down. “I’m getting old…really old. Even with my youthful appearance…I forget that I won’t always be around to help the boys when they need it. To guide them. to love them…” Ochigi would reach into his coat pocket, pulling out family photos. There was a photo with Tetsu and himself. A photo with Densuke, and Felicity when she was first pregnant. A photo with Densuke, Felicity, along with Connor, Leon, and Katarina. Ochigi smiled. “I cling to memories that aren’t mind. Heh. C’mon old timer, don’t tell me you’re getting soft.” Ochigi would a laugh, before coughing some more, all be it not as bad as it was before. “I started this…all of this to face off against the Yakuza threat…then things went from human threats, to scientific and mythical threats. And who’s to say the children of new will defeat the gods? Who’s to say we’ll survive what’s coming? Will I be here?...” Ochigi would sit on the toilet running his hands through his hair. “I-…I’m losing my drive. My purpose. Maybe I just feel there should be something more…something more that I should be doing. Having a life. With…a wife. Why I haven’t remaired, I’ve no idea…” Ochigi would shake his head, standing again and taking off his trench coat, folding it over his arm. He’d pass by a mirror and look at himself. Five o clock after shadow abroad, and youthful appearance. Ochigi knew he wouldn’t be here forever. “…” He made his way back out into the main lab speaking. “Computer…run protocol experimentation. Project: S.M.A.R.T. conscious…is a go.” Ochigi would toss his coat on the table and sit in a chair as a holographic screen appeared infront of him. He’d begin punching in codes and designing a foreign hologram that looked like him. “I’m addicted to my work, I’ll be the firs to admit. Who knows. Maybe I’m jus addicted to what I do as a whole. If I lose my drive I lose my life…what life I do have to live. I regret…that my time is drawing near. But…” the photo’s spilled out of ochigi’s coat pocket when he tossed it down and he got another look at them as he continued working. “It won’t be so bad. I’ll leave a legacy…maybe spend some time with my family. Yes. My proceeding genes. Make my life something more than this..” a headband would’ve lowered around Ochigi’s head that had wires coming from it. “I’ve left my legacy in this world… but I’ll leave a few more things behind. Just like you would’ve done for your son. Right Tetsu?”

No More Holding Back!
“Taaaaaaaaaaaake THIS!” Kevin would’ve dodged Connor’s kick, by flipping over his entire leg, and landing on his hands, in a handstand like fashion, only to twist his body, and flail his legs out in a spinning fashion, kicking connor 4 times across the left side of his face! Connor stumbled backwards! Subcociously he was holding back as he had no real beef with Kevin what soever, but he knew he couldn’t back down…his physique wouldn’t let him. Yes, Connor had been feeding off of the negative emotion and tremendous weight of kevins’ physical chi enhanced blows, and as such, When Kevin went for one final twirl kick, Connor would’ve gripped Kevin’s leg underneath his arm. “I can’t play anymore Kevin…I’m sorry!” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojL5Y5HvOlE&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl&index=165 ) Connor would rear his left arm back and punch kevin right in the lower abdomen, directly aiming to push his intenstines towards his back side! Connor’s body had now hit a form of enhanced condition after prolonging his fight with Kevin and taking in what he took in! Kevin’s eyes rolled into the back of his head, as Connor would fling kevin’s legs up, forcing his body to cartwheel to and upwards, position. “She was a great girl! I don’t know what you did but you sure as hell drove her away you jerk!” Connor would’ve thrown out one of his combo’s… Connor rushes his opponent at a high speed, coming in at about 75mph, with his right fist rared back, aiming to throw a 2 peice right and left heymaker combination at his opponents left and right jaw. Each punch thrown with full martial potential, Connor aiming to completely shatter the hinges of his opponents jaw with his knuckles, both jabs moving at a speed that his fist would appear as fleshy whipes. They'd be thrown one after the other, even if one was blocked or dodged, and the opponents body would be sent in a spin if the right punch connected, spinning them around in a complete 360 before Connor would lift his right leg up, his knee and upper thigh touching his chest, before attempting to lash his right foot against the forehead of his opponent! If this boot connected, the opponent's head would had connor's heel print imbeded into it  like a tatto! They'd suffer from sever disorientiation and jet lag, their nervous system lapsing for a few seconds, as their body would be sent tumlbing 10 feet back along the ground, accompanied by severe concussioning and bleeding in the brain, which if not looked at after 2 post, will cause bodily failure, depending on an opponents durability.



The combo hit spot on, and Kevin would’ve begun bleeding from the mouth! Connor had reached a physical peak where he could hurt him, and now the fight was on par! Connor altered the kick as he heard kevin’s groans of agony, and when kevin’s back hit the ground, it would’ve popped his body up into the air momentarily, which would lead connor to raise his right leg up, and slam it upon Kevin’s feet, forcing him to stand straight up AGAIN, and connor would unleash a furious assault of kicks!~ Connor, takes a stance or in the middle of a combo already, and attempts to kick his opponent 7 times in rapid sucession. 2 kicks thrown with the right foot aimed at the side of the left knee cap, attempting to cave it in, 2 kicks thrown with the left leg aimed at the opponents right hip and rib cage, in attempts to crack the pelvis severly and deeply, and attempting to outright fracutre or break the right 3 ribs with Connor's crushing martial force and posture, and finally 2 more kicks, i.e a clock wise spinning upper right heel kick twoards the chin, which if connected would push the opponents jaw against their mandible, hitting a nerve to cause sever lock jaw and limit breating from the mouth FOLLOWING UP with an attempted upwards vertical axe kick with the left foot aimed dead at the curve of the neck. This particular kick would send the opponent air borne temporariy and strike a nerve that would send a ringing noise thrugh the opponents ear cutting that sense off momentarily. All of this would lead up to connor pushing off of his right foot in an attempted backflip kick twoards the chin once again. if this hit connected, the opponents teeth would be pushed and mushed against each other cracking severly and sending the opponents body arching backwards before flopping to the ground past the point of unconcious. Each kick is thrown in a matter of half second intervals and even if one is blocked, the other kicks will stil be attempted unless interupted entirely. Kevin’s body would’ve twitched and flinched as he took the full blunt of Connor’s attacks! Kevin’s eyes had lost their color completely…”His…martial arts…it’s damn near perfect…my body hurts….I…I-‘m losing.” As Kevin’s body would’ve been flailing in the air, he’d open his eyes…to see a giant blue hued blast of pressureized air, about the size of a mini van coming straight at him! Kevin was helpless to move, as suddenly BOOM!” the blast hit and sent kevin’s body soaring 30 feet away, as the gravel rose around his traveling body! He’d finally hit a firehydrant, and an explosion of water would’ve skyrocted into the air! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhWx8DLh63k&index=416&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl ) Kevin’s body lay there, his shirt gone, and his muscles back to their normal size, and his hair was soaking wet. Connor’s body would’ve fluttered before him, standing over him with bruises on his face and what not. This was an old street in district 1 which was mainly for bums, so there was no worry of being seen by any law officials. Connor would’ve huffed and puffed speaking. “I’m sorry Kevin. I can’t take back what I did…nor do I intend to. You liked her? Well I…I loved her. “ Connor would turn around, turning his back on Kevin. “Just like I…I love Kodi. Oh god…I used the L word.” Connor would put a hand over his face and sigh. “You….don’t understand. “ “I do. I’ve had my girl taken from me by another man before. It’s nothing new to me…it’s a terrible feeling and I’m the wrong guy to lecture you but it is what it is. I miss her to Kevin…but I can tell you still look at me with such resent in your eyes. It’s hard to not want to honor you with a good death…I won’t kill you. I like you kid. Come fight me again anytime.”   “Stop!” (STOP MUSIC) Connor would’ve turned around to see Kevin on his hands and knees. “You…you don’t get to walk away do you hear me?! You weren’t there…to show here the world! The things she missed out on! I was there! Me! She was my everything! I don’t have much god dammit! I sacrifice what I want EVERY SINGLE DAY, for the good of a city that DOESN’T deserve to be saved! Do you know why   Vigilantes struggle with relationships?!? Out of all my selfishness I wanted one thing and one thing only! For myself!” “I didn’t pick your role Kevin. You did.” “NYAAAAAAAAAAH! SHE WAS MINE! MINE, MINE---!”( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gcshz4lBJPQ&index=451&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl ) Connor’s eyes glared at kevin as he could feel the rise in his energy. “He’s…not done?” Kevin’s body would’ve begun pulsating. Pulsating rapidly. More and more before kevin’s muscle mass increased by 4 inches! He looked like a massive body builder, on roids hard! That’s when the muscle shrank. Kevin’s frame became pure muscle…every inch of body fat he head disapered, and he was now a pure chiseled being! His blood red chi flailing the area, and eclispsing it in it’s light! Tears streamed from Kevins’ eyes as he unintentionally hit…his Hadou Kussei. “IF SHE WAS WITH ME…IF I WAS THERE SHE WOUDN’T HAVE DIED! SHE’D STILL BE HERE, PRATCING AND FIGHTING, AND BEING WITH MEEEEEEEEEEE-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!” (Kevin’s chi but red https://33.media.tumblr.com/9eb423433993ac15b2534e60879e74de/tumblr_n0n8zwX0D71sdfhwqo1_500.gif ) The ground around Kevin sunk beneath his feet. Connor would’ve taken a step back. “Damn…didn’t anticpate this…gotta keep my guard up! I can fight him now!” that’s when a web would’ve attached itself to Connor’s face. “The hell?!” he let out a muffled scream, and next thing he knew hew as being flug around like a rag doll! Kevin spinning Connor above his head like he was a wrecking ball, before jumping, and stepping forward, leaning his body forward as well! Connor’s body would’ve sunk into the inside of a building, and crashed through multiple floors, support beams, and brick until he was dropped onto his head 45 feet away! Connor graoned, as he felt his neck about to snap. “w-webs…he used…the fucking,…webs.” Connor would’ve gripped onto the web, using his destruction chi to dsistintergrate it. He’d stand   back up and have his arms by his sides. He’d look and see Kevin swinging towards him. “Those web’s make your combat patterns all to easy!!!” Connor would shout, as he’d jump and grip onto kevin’s body as he continued to swing! Connor would’ve wrapped his legs around kevin’s waist and begun to wail on his face repeatedly while they were in the air! Kevin though…his chi had increased so much he was literaly blocking the punches using the muscles in his cheeks! “I’M STRONGER THAN I’VE EVER BEEEEEEEEEN!” Kevin would’ve punched connor directly in his throat, and stunned him, only for him to push both of his feet into Connor’s chest in a squat like fashion, and pushing his feet out, to send Connor flailing downwards, from 20 stories high! Connor’s body hit the pavement with a bounce, as he tumbled, a gash in the top of his head now, as he struggled to catch himself. He went to get up, but he’d find that kevin would’ve shot webbing at his hands and feet, praticaly keeping the man bent over on the ground! “Oh no! no no no!”   Connor struggled to move, as he looked up and saw Kevin coming down from the sky! “how’d he get so high?!?” Connor’ eyes darted around as he saw to strands of web attached to the sides of the building. “Sling shot method huh…” Connor’s eyes would’ve shifted…he’d begin using his Eagle eyes to track Kevin’s vibrations, and see just how fast he was coming in! “Alright…he’s at least….30 stories up, and going to hit terminal velocity soon…” He’d yell to kevin. ‘I’m sorry Kevin! But!...” Using his destructive chi Connor would break himself free of the webbing, and stand to his full height only to squat again. Kevin’s eyes narrowed, as his red chi brimmed off his body the further down he got towards Connor. “What’s he?... it doesn’t matter! At this speed I’ll kill him! I’ll defeat him and get revenge on him for running Yumi’s life!” A bright purple aura would’ve begun to stream off of Connor’s being! “??” Kevin looked in surprise as Connor began to speak. “It’s one thing to want revenge…to want to honor somones memory…I understand your feelings Kevin I really do. I have no problem helping   you as a fighter earn the right to claim your vengeance..however I myself also have a goal! A goal to rebuke and renew the honor and respect that came with my name! A name that has been forgotten since I left this world, and that name is CONNOR RYOJIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ny24zPeQLks Yup it’s happening) Connor flexed his body and unleashed the bright purple aura would’ve streamed form his body rapidly! Connor would’ve held his right hand up infront of his face and begun to speak! The very wind from Connor’s power outburst, slowed kevin’s descent massive, as the winds would’ve literally pushed him back momentarily! Connor’s body was destroying and distintergrating parts, bits, and pieces of the ground around him, as a light tremor could be felt! Knocking over stop signs, and street lights for a few miles out! Connor’s right hand begun to glow a bright red, while the bones in his forearm illuminated to look like a bright pink! (http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/yakuza-mob-roleplay/images/a/a4/Screenshot_17.png/revision/latest?cb=20141218060400 ) “This hand of mine is BURNING RED!” Connor’s eyes shifted to kevin in his nose dive! Kevin would’ve fwipped webs beside connor to missile himself closer! “IT’S BURNING GRIP TELLS ME TO DEFEAT YOU! HERE I GO!” Connor would’ve reared his right arm back as the chi poured form his very essence, from his very soul! “ ANNIHILATIIIIIIIIIIIIING FINGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!” As Kevin would’ve closed in on Connor’s location Connor would’ve thrusted himself into the air, using a push blast to literally meet kevin half way in the air, and completely reverse his direction! Connor’s destruction chi hand destroyed the very tissue of Kevin’s mid section, tearing straight through! The blood that would’ve leaked from the wound destroyed the instant Connor’s had made the piercing, and now he and kevin were soaring upwards into the sky at break neck speeds! Kevin gritted his teeth! His intestines were torn, there was no way he was going to live through this! He couldn’t! no one man could without sacrificing their life! As they ascended Connor would’ve gritted his teeth, and thought about Keyomes words. “Death is an honor for those who’d earned it.” Connor would then speak through gritted and bloodied teeth. “And now….HEAT! END!” Connor would’ve closed his fist, and opened it up again, only to attempt to unleash a 10 foot micro push blast of destruction chi from the inside out of Kevin! This blast would not only utterly destroy his very being inside out, but result in a violent explosion of guts and gore!...at least it should have! As Connor was getting ready to make that move he’d feel his arm being crushed! Cricke, crackles, and pops unleashed themselves, as kevin having the Iron will to avenge Yumi would’ve used his physical chi to tighten his muscles around connor’s arm with enough psi to crush a car! “AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!” Connor screamed, as Kevin would the grip him by the neck as they were both about to descend from their height! Connor’s arm trapped inside of Kevin’s mid section, and kevin now atop, he’d rear his own right hand back! His eyes now a full red…. A deep and crimson, pupiless, Tasanagi red. “I told you…” Kevins’ voice was now two toned. “I’m going to avenge her Connor…AND YOU’RE NOT GOING TO WIN THIS FIGHT JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE A PURPOSE! I’LL WIN! I WILL WIN! SIMPLY BECAUSE I’M GONG TO FIGHT HARDER THAN YOU!!!!!!!!! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUEHnyAtp9I&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl&index=317 ) Kevin would’ve unleashed a punch directly into Connor’s nose, breaking it on impact, and releasing an invisible wave of sheer unbridled force! The shockwave cracking and destroying the windows on the upper floors of 5 buildings surrounding them! Connor’s nose bleed profusely, the crimson liqud escaping his nostrils! Kevin was no where near done, as he’d throw a punch with his opposite hand! Impacting Connor in his throat! Nearly crushing his windpipe, and causing another crimson stream of blood to erupt from his lips this time! Another shockwave would’ve pulsated from Kevin’s fist! “HUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!” Kevin would’ve begun throwing punch after punch after PUNCH into Connor’s very being! The chest, the abs, the arms, the legs, the knees, the eyes, the chin, the balls, the hands, no part of Connor’s body was remotely safe as Kevin’s fist impacted all of them, and broke whatever bone layed in that area! Each punch kevin through because of the immensely high level of physical chi sent shockwaves throughout the air, propelling them to fall faster, and faster…at double the speed of terminal velocity, and even in that time, Kevin’s wing chun training would’ve allowed him to throw over 500 punches to the body of Connor before they impacted upon the ground! (http://blacknerdproblems.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/LEE_KICKS_ARSE.gif ) Kevin’s last reared back punch would’ve had a violent red glow as once they were an inch from the ground he’d launch this punch…the punch hit against Connor’s chest, but there was no impact sound right away. As if in a slow motion movie, Kevin’s body and Connor’s body seemed to be moving in a fast motion camera like fashion. But suddenly one could see the air around the two of them blurring…as if waves were rippling though the very space around it. And they were. Kevin put his all into this very last punch, and ash e did, he would’ve unleashed a punch so hard, so frieghteningly fast, the sound woudlv’e momentarily had to catch up, and it resulted in a sonic boom like effect! (http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20141130225359/yakuza-mob-roleplay/images/6/6d/Punch13.gif ) After that second, a large noise similar to a clap of thunder would’ve echoed through out the lower streets of district 1! Street lights busting, fire hydrants erupting in various areas, the vibrations causing sewer lines to go out of wack and send gysers of water exploding from the ground all in a mile vicinity of where Kevin and Connor were! (http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/10/105240/3964779-5456120780-39645.png )Connor’s body finally hit the dirt, and immediately pillars of rock would’ve emerged and   uprooted from the ground alone! The cars surrounding them would’ve flow upwards and away, and the lower building windows would’ve erupted in a sprinkling shower of glass raining from the heavens! Sinking connor’s body below the street, and into the sewer bottoms! At least 60 feet below! (http://darkroom.baltimoresun.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/BS-md-sink-hole-p2-perna-760x506.jpg ) (http://listenonrepeat.com/watch/?v=JDPHIQMSss8#G_Gundam_OST_3_|_07_Feelings   ) As the smoke and dust began to clear around the two of them. Kevin would’ve been the one standing over Connor this time. Connor lay in the murky water and rock combination. His body bruised black and red with fist whelps, that had puddles of blood in them. Connor’s face was so badly swollen and unrecognizable…you’d have to know it was him to KNOW it was him. Kevin’s body covered in water,   tears still streaming down his face as he thougth about Yumi…being gone. Kevin bit his lip and gripped Connor by the hair, and began punching his face sommoere. He grunted with each punch…his knuckles bleed. Hell you could see the bare bone on them suckers. His hits at this point were no where near as strong however as he was experiencing the fatigue that comes with a Kussei. Kevin would stop punching, wanting to see if he was dead. Connor was silent for a while, before blowing a bubble of blood and beginning to breathe again. Kevin would rear his hand back about to end it all, when Connor spoke up. “She’s…not dead.” Kevin stopped in his tracks. “what….?” Connor coughed a few times. “The place I went…we went…is known as the dark zone. We got stuck there…with you’re grand father. He took us in…t-trained us…me and Yumi were inseperable…but along the way during a routine. We got separated…I looked for her…for 50 years…” Connor began to shed a tear as well. “I couldn’t find her…” Connor closed his eyes. “I just wanted it to be easy on you Kevin. Thinking she was dead would save you guilt. The hurt. I have to live every day knowing, that I failed to find her. To bring her back with me. Don’t   you see?...” Connor would look up to Kevin. “We both lost her in our own way…I blame myself as do you…” Kevin would let Connor’s head drop. Kevin turned around and looked around. “Then…she could still be alive?!” Connor weakly groaned. “y-yes….I came back through a wormhole. It was random..but it brought me back. She…she’s as tough as nails. She’ll find one and maybe one day come back…but don’t put your life on pause. None of us can..” Connor weakly started to pull himself up. He fell twice before finally being able to sit up. The fact that he could even move was a feat in it’s own, considering majority of his major bones were broken, and his organ’s were rupted. Another stream of crimnson would leak from connro’s lips covering his chin as a whole. He’d look to Kevin and smile through his damged features. “you loved her too didn’t you. That’s why…I lost to you. You know what’s in you’re heat. Who’s on your mind. Me…I’m still trying to figure things out.” Kevin would turn to Connor. “why not just…tell me from the start?” Connor looked up at the light coming from the hole in the ground they were sitting in. he was silent for a moment. “Dunno…” Connor pondered. “I guess…deep down I wanted to   know…who loved her more. Who was willing to fight harder…I got my answer.” Connor would close his eyes and lower his head. “That’s all I can tell you Kevin. What you do no is up to you.” Kevin would look away, with a scowl. “…just…hop on my back. I’ll take you back to the surface. “ “Nah..if I go they’ll know It was me who caused this mess. Pretty sure with my probation, I’d be off to the big house for good. I’ll heal…trust me. You get on outta here. I’m hidden down here, but…you’ve got a city to defend. “ Kevin would sigh and begin making his way up the discarded and crushed rubble. Looking back at Connor he’d speak, while climbing. “You’re a trifling piece of shit Connor. But you’re one of the most honest guys I know, just like Leon. We should go drinking some time…” Connor would nod. “Chea. Sounds good.” Kevin would’ve made his way up and began fleeing the scene. The police sirens buzzing the back ground, and Connor would barely manage to pull himself up. “Well Ryo…back to fix your self up. Wouldn’t wanna waste daylight…got a job to do.” Connor would weakly limp through the tunnels of Kasaihana city. His healing factor   using his left over chi to mend the major injuries, before attending to the smaller ones. “Yumi…” Connor thought. “I wonder how you feel in all of this…don’t you have a say in who gets your heart?” Connor would then get flashes of Kodi in his head and he realized he was incredibly torn between two women he’d admittedly had such strong effections for both of these women. “I need to sort this out…my way. On my own…I need to see Kodi.”



(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUpPpvwn7ms&index=13&list=PLYNBny7IRlVkbiSVlrNHnbXbgZBIdU3Pl ) A day passed, and while everyone else was busy living their day to day lives, early in the morning upon the hill of Heroes Reperieve atop the tallest plateu there. Stood two men. One of those men being the Red Dawn, Densuke Ryoji. He stood in present, in his military combat gear, ready to seize the day for everything it was worth. Infront of him was none other than Jacob Turner, the recruit Densuke had been training especially to take on the mantle of being this day and ages Red Dawn. Jacob stood, with his hand in his hand, unlike it normally placed upon his blonde locks. What was the occasion? And why were these two men standing so dramtically infront of each other. The silence was grand, as the waves crashed against the baseline pillars of the facility, only for Densuke to finally speak up. “You’ve…made me proud   Jacob. You’ve passed your combat test, and field test with flying Color’s. “ Jacob would nod. “Thank you sir. It’s been an   honor.” Densuke would nod, closing his eyes, and looking towards the direction of the city. “That city needs heroes, no matter which way you shake a stick at it. People look up to the vigilantes. They follow their own code and do what they must for the greater good. Taking the law in their own hands, when the law doesn’t have the needs to get the job done. The Red Dawn was symbolic for this…but. I am old now. My time has passed Jacob.” Densuke would look to Jacob. “But   you’re time is here. The generation of a new. Carve the path of your life, and follow it. Grasp your prize with your   own two hands, and hold it as tight as you can. Never let go. I trained you to be the perfect vigilante. I gave you the skills, the tools, and the assessments to make your job better for you. Now, as your head, I must let you go and venture off. Take on your own missions. Do your own thing, but in the name eternal that is Red Dawn.” Densuke would pull the shield from his back. Holding it in both hands. “This shield, is very unique. It’s an Adamantium-Vibrainium mix, with an unknown element that tot his day hasn’t ben confirmed. It’s unbreakable by any means or standard. I want you to take it. Keep it. Cherish it. Use it to fight the good fight I was once able to fight when I was   your age at one time. Jacob hesitated. “A-a-are you sure? This is…a lot to take in. the weight of the shoes I have to fill is…” “Don’t walk in my shoes Jacob Turner. Walk in your own shoes. Your own way. Just remember to always do the right thing, and follow what you know to be true. In the end, that will always support your heroic mind and spirt.” Densuke would extend his hands towards Jacob and Jacob…would grasp the shield tightly in his hands. Looking at it’s shine it’s shimmer….it’s unnatural in the sunlight. Jacob would look back to Densuke,as he’d strap the shield onto his left arm. Densukes said nothing as he’d step back and Salute Jacob. “Welcome to Heroes Inc…Red Dawn.” Jacob would smile estatic! He’d stand straight, and salute Densuke right back, and smiling the entire time. Densuke would put his own hand down and speak. “Go get fitted for your Red Dawn costume. I sparred no expense. You’ll get the quality uniform, and carry out the legacy. Now go!” Jacob hurridly rushed down the stairs,and headed to the armory. Walking in with excitement in his eyes,he’d let the door shut behind him. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ymted8LHlVY ) A few moments Later Jacob would’ve stepped from those double doors, in a sleek and spiffy new Red Dawn outfit. Jacob would have the shield mounted on his back, and a pistol mounted on his right leg. A utility belt abroad his wasit, and the cowl over his face, only exposing his mouth. “I’ll honor the name of what I’ve become! And make this city a better place, one bad guy at a time!” Jacob would’ve raised his shield high into the air! The sunlight woudlv’e sparkled off of it as he readied himself for the challenges of being the Red Dawn…but he was willing to face them head on! For freedom, and the greater good!
