JAPAN
All is quiet at the old shrine. This mountain hideaway is where the late Gouken trained the celebrated ansatsuken pair. It is a place ideal for study and training; it is a place where time seems to have stood still. Leaves rustle, birds softly chirp, and the brook babbles. Everything else in the forest is happily entrenched in their place. their order in the circle of life.
A fist pumped through the air. The tranquility is broken by a primal scream.
“Yahoooooooooo!”
The fist lowered. It belonged to a man with a ponytail and an shocking pink gi. The man then hastily straightened himself. He shifted his direction from the dojo, and scanned a grave post. He then bowed slowly.
“Master Gouken,” said Dan. “Although you did not allow me to continue, I am here to pay my respects. For were it not for your guidance and what you started, I would have not reached this point. But now! Perhaps now, they will finally realize the might of Saikyo!”
Dan then began a display of Saikyo-ryu katas.He taunted. He quickly ducked, then taunted. He leapt ten feet in the air, then taunted. He judo-rolled forward, then back, and taunted. He then mimicked some judo throws, and taunted yet again. He then stopped, and autographed a picture he hid in his gi, and flashed a winning smile. Surely, his foes would tremble at his fearsome mastery.
“Hey, pink dude.”
Dan dropped his marker and photo in surprise. Hastily stuffing them into his gi, he greeted his fellow street fighter.
“Wha? Oh, good day to you, Ken.”
“First off, I’d like to congratulate you for making it far in that Heaven Clash thing. Me losing to that counterrorist babe: not fun. You to do your thing, and get as far as you did, that HAD to be more than luck. So I’d like to extend my kudos, from one fighter to the other.”
“Ah, thanks. So it was you who entered the tournament after all?”
“Yeah, it was weird. At first I thought it was just a strange dream! I could lift 1000 tons, ride little ponies, collect shiny jewels… the ‘realities meeting’ thing of that tourney was WEIRD! Luckily, it looks like I came through the ordeal okay.”
“So did I. And I would’ve won too, were it not for that merc in red. Loudmouthed, regenerative bastard!” Dan rubbed his nose.
Ken paused. He adjusted his gloves.
“Oh, another thing. What’s this I hear about you helping about my boy Sean? You know, between the Double Impact and Third Strike tournaments?”
Dan beamed.
“Oh! Why, yes, I did! I helped him beef up his punches and kicks, and his specials too! In fact, it was I who suggested that he use two fists for his dragon punches, since it looks like basketball’s really a forte of his.”
“…”
There was an uncomfortable pause. Ken tried his hardest not to roll his eyes, and anxiously opted to change to subject instead.
“So, uh… how ‘bout a match for old times’ sake? I promise not to laugh this time.”
“Very well, Ken. I hope you brought your A-Game, 'cause I won’t hold back!”
Dan charged a large orange ball of ki. The air crackled. He then sent a massive attack in the direction of the red-gi fighter.
“GADOU! SHO KOKEN!”
Ken didn’t block the incoming aura ball. Instead, he repeatedly swatted the ball with his near hand. His defense was eventually able to resist the energy attack til it dissipated.
[TECH BONUS]
Ken charged at a surprised Dan. He tagged him with a couple of jabs and low kicks. He then delivered his signature uppercut.
“Shoryuken!”
As soon as his rising punch connected, Ken shifted his offense to a string of 45-degree kicks. This chain terminated with another of his signature moves- a tatsumaki kick.
Birds, squirrels, and other small forest animals fleed at the sight and sound caused by the commotion.
“Shippu! Jinrai Kya!”
Dan crashed to the ground, and slumped against a nearby tree. Ken dusted himself, and finally managed to roll his eyes.
“Eh! That was it? From a man who defeated no less than a mech genius, and a powerful witch? I guess we can chalk it up to ‘flashes of brilliance’ again.” He chuckled, and pat an unconscious Dan on the head. He hastily scrawled a note, and left it at Dan’s feet.
“Nice meeting you again, dude. (Not really.) I gotta go, Eliza and Mel are waitin’ back in the city.”
