Fof, You just saved your ass.
It seemed that I must put Tallgeese III back to the base for now.
But… When the time is up, I will go onto Tallgeese and whip your @!%@# ass. Understand? :evil:
Hmm…
As far as this fiction goes.
Gouki: A little frustration and he’s wild. I would say that he’s got very weak mind.
Gouken: A warrior that improves from his experience and his weakness. No wonder he can create an excellent student such as Ryu and Ken!
Goutetsu: Eh… As far as I am concerned, he’s a very good teacher. It takes a lot of patience to train both Gouken and Gouki, who have the exact opposite personality.
Afaik: Even with this story, I still have so little know about Afaik. I cannot give good descriptions about her, sorry.
Gen and Fei: Well, well, well, I must say that they are somewhat being held by “destinity”, and it was like they must overcome this destinity so that they can continue on their path.
This is an amazing fan fiction!!!
Gouki: He feels that no matter how much he trains, his efforts display an air of weakness whenever he fights and gets beaten by his opponents, including his bro, Gouken. Gouki strives to become the “perfect” fighter, and the anger that stems from losing to fighters like Gen only fuels his inner rage and his drive to fight, which will consume him later on.
Gouken: He is more level-headed and grounded to reality than Gouki. Gouken sees fighting as a chance to hone his already-remarkable skills-- and from his battle with Gen, he also has that passion going for him as well. Kinda “pre-Ryu-ish” in a way, just without that “wanderer” quality. He’s like one of those positive-thinking, 'keep-your-head-up," high self-esteem types of people.
Goutetsu: The revered master of the bunch. I agree with the peeps here who said that he’s the patient, calm and collected type. He kept his cool when he fought Hiro, that ninja dude, and instead of giving him a swift beat-down, he cared for his well-being by taking him to Afaik.
Afaik: I guess she’s the supportive wife-type for Goutetsu. Not much was revealed about her personality, except on those instances when she spoke with Goutetsu during supper and stuff.
Gen: I can totally see Gen as the sly fighter that he is. He seems assured of his skills, but might have met his match with Gouken.
Master Fei: I get the impression that he wants to impress Goutetsu with Gen and the teachings that he laid onto him, sorta implying, “I didn’t kick your ass before, but maybe Gen will return the favor onto your students.”
Props to the fan fic.
Lmaooo:lol: :lol:…sounds about right.
I love all the characters!! I espeacially like Gouki and Gouken. Unlike some of the other people who have commented I don’t find anything wrong with Gouki. He wants to be the best and it’s not that he doesn’t learn from his loses it’s just that he wants to be perfect and fighting just comes easier to his brother even though they are both extremely talented. I could see how once Gouki learns about and begins to harness Sastu No Hadou(I hope that’s right:confused: ) he could defeat his brother and teacher. Gouken is just a natural at fighting and he loves it! I think that could be the main difference where Gouki wants to be the best I think his brother just wants to improve. So it does not consume him the way it does Gouki. I also think that it’s interesting that they kinda remind me of Ryu and Ken but flipped. Ryu is kinda driven like Gouki and Ken is more relaxed like Gouken, but Ryu is stronger than Ken. It would be cool if you did a fanfiction about their days of training next!!!. You write the best fanfics I’ve ever read. Keep up the good work! Holla!!!

Chapter XIV: Fork In The Road
Gouken and Gen rushed into each other locking hands; trying to force the other to the ground. They strained against the strength of one another, like enraged rams in combat over a willing female. The strain was evident in their exposed bodies; veins boldly showing through sweat covered skin pumping blood and adrenaline to where it was needed.
This deadlock continued for another minute, until Gen smiled through clenched teeth.
WHAM!
Gen viciously kneed Gouken in his unguarded abdomen. Gouken stumbled but refused to break the lock, holding firm after a couple steps back. Gen then struck again with another knee, Gouken did not move this time only winced.
Another knee to the stomach. And another. And a final knee, Gen forced his knee deeper into Gouken?s abdomen, making his mouth and eyes widen in pain. Gouken still held on.
Gen slowly gained the advantage, pushing the coughing Gouken steadily downwards. Gouken suddenly stiffened.
?My turn.?
With that, Gouken stood up. He reared his head back, and rammed it into Gen?s surprised visage with blinding speed and force. Gen stumbled a couple steps and limply fell backwards, holding his head and barely coherent.
?That?s using your head.? Goutetsu muttered with a chuckle. Fei grunted.
Gouken waited for Gen to return to his feet, he had tried once but fell again. After 10 seconds Gen was up, his legs wobblying but quickly recovering. His nose was bleeding, other than that he was fine. Gen wasted no time, shooting forward to punch the surprised Gouken in the stomach, then he grabbed Gouken?s head and drove his knee into it. Gouken?s head rocked back and Gen delivered 5 crane pecks to Gouken?s chest in 2 seconds, then lept into the air to finish with a flying kick; knocking Gouken 20 feet away into a stone wall. Gouken?s body slapped the hard stone and bounced off, smacking the ground with a wet, thick thwack and a cloud of dust.
Gouken quickly sprang to his feet; wiping blood out of the corner of his mouth was a smile on his face.
?That hurt.? He quipped.
Gen ignored him, pushing forward intent on destroying his foe. Gen tried a front kick, Gouken slapped it away and countered with a right hook which Gen dodged. Gen tried a knee to Gouken?s stomach, Gouken kneed Gen?s knee; pushing it away and then tried a reverse spinning elbow. Gen caught the elbow and kicked Gouken in the back, knocking him away. Both suddenly paused and returned to stance, their eyes locked onto each other.
Gouken then attacked with a low sweep. Gen jumped clearly above and landing behind Gouken, putting him in a headlock. Gouken thrashed, but Gen held him firm. Gouken then reached behind him and grabbed Gen?s throat with both hands, not letting go.
Suddenly, they both began to move forward?their steps together yet opposing each other. Then the stride picked up, to a hurried shuffle. Seconds later it became a full fledged gallop.
Both Gen and Gouken were trapped each other in holds, yet they both were running at top speed in the arena.
?What the hell are they doing?! This is no time for games!? Master Fei exclaimed.
?You see that far wall?? Goutetsu said calmly. Fei nodded.
?They?re running towards it. They know one of them is going to have to let go in order to not be thrown into a wall of stone wall 2 feet thick and going as fast as they are. It?s a contest.? Goutetsu said, his eyes glued to the match.
?Well that?s stupid. Kids these days?running into walls. We didn?t pull stupid stunts like that. In our day we just fought, no stupid games involved.? Master Fei pouted.
?This is hardly a game Fei. They are testing each other, what each is made of. How can you not understand? Didn?t you experience that when Master made us fight Long and Chang??
?No. They were weak, I disposed of them quickly.?
?I?m afraid your memory fading Fei. They beat you, both of them.?
Fei grunted and said no more for a few minutes.
The wall was now no more than 10 feet away. They would cross the distance in less than a second. Neither slowed down, only stared at each other in fierce concentration.
WHAM!!!
A sick thud resulted as both fighters smacked the stone wall; knocking a few of the ancient bricks loose and shattering the rest that took the impact. Both fighters limply released each and crashed to the ground, a trail of blood flowing from each who were 10 feet away from each other. Neither moved.
Gouki?s eyes widened as he watched from the outskirts of the arena, his brother and Gen lay on the ground like broken toys carelessly discarded by a disinterested child. He could not even see their chests rise with breath; they were completely motionless.
?Hmmmm?? Goutetsu wondered as he stroked his beard, Master Fei stood in shook, his eyes wide.
Then both fighters began to stir. Gouken groaned as he slowly turned over, his stomach now towards the ground. He tried to slide to his knees, but it was a futile effort and he collapsed again seconds later. Gen tried to stand, managed to get up, his knees bent and quivering. Then he leaned too far backward and crashed to the ground again, his weak body not able to take his own form.
?At least they?re both breathing.? Goutetsu muttered.
Gouken slowly opened his eyes, the world spinning around him. He attempted to get up, this time slower and successfully. He stumbled to a halt, and rubbed his side. Gen slowly picked himself off the ground also, falling into the crumbling stone wall; using it for his only support. Blood was oozing from a gash in the middle of his forehead, running down his face in little rivers, but he did not care enough to tend to it.
Gen and Gouken?s eyes slowly drifted into each other?s gaze and froze, their faces suddenly tightened and held still. Both had endured the wall, and both were standing afterward. In each other, they saw some of themselves. Suddenly yet patiently it dawned on them the only thing they had to do.
Gouken and Gen suddenly shot towards the center of the arena then once there they bounded backwards and rocketed forward into each other. Fighting furiously; their fists and feet blurs, their teeth clenched as sounds of battle echoed throughout the training grounds; rattling the dislodged pebbles from ancient stone.
WHAM! Gouken incorrectly predicted Gen?s next move and was met with a fist buried into his abdomen. He quickly recovered and extended his forearm to absorb a kick and countered with a roundhouse that floored his opponent. Gen did not stay down, bouncing off the pavement into a spinning aerial roundhouse of his own which startled Gouken.
Gouken was knocked 10 feet away, but he never was off his feet. He rushed into Gen and the fighting continued. Suddenly Gouken stopped and shot out an open palm, signaling to stop. Gouken straightened his posture and folded his arms, now unguarded and out of stance.
?Gen. This fight is over with.?
Gen?s eyes widened as he stood silently astonished.
?Gen, I?ve figured you out. I know your strategies and attacks. We don?t have to continue. Whaddya say??
Gen spat blood from his mouth harshly on the ground as a response. Gouken shrugged.
?Now what?s going on?? Master Fei muttered.
?Gouken is asking Gen to stop.? Goutetsu stated flatly.
?What?! If anything he should be giving up! GEN! CRUSH HIM NOW! He?s too arrogant!!?
?Fei, Gouken is not being arrogant?.? Goutetsu gave up mid-sentence, he saw it was no use.
Gen suddenly shot high into the air, coming downward with his foot gunning for Gouken. Gouken easily sidestepped the attack and shot his forearm out to swat away Gen?s follow up punch. Gouken then quickly ducked under Gen?s jumping roundhouse and tripped him. Gen crashed to the ground but lashed out with a trip of his own, Gouken lifted a single foot 6 inches off the ground causing the attack to miss. Gen sprang forward with an overhead right; Gouken caught his fist and threw him into a nearby wall; using his own momentum against him.
Gen slowly recovered, his eyes wide with shock. Just 5 minutes ago Gouken and Gen were apparently on an even level, now Gen was just a toy. Gen?s fists clenched as he quickly took Crane stance. Gouken shrugged.
?Ah yes?Crane. Gen will surely beat him now.? Master Fei muttered.
Gen sprang into the air again, his arms spread out like crane?s wings while the sun burned bright behind him. Gouken dodged Gen?s strikes and ran behind him, kicking him with a vicious roundhouse to the back of the head. Gen was unfazed, taking no time to recover as he lunged forward again, with a flurry of punches. Gouken swatted each away; 15 in 5 seconds, then finally catching the last one.
Gen?s outstretched arm was stiff, trying to break free of Gouken?s hold. Veins showed themselves in his well trained limb and he grunted in strain. Gouken was relaxed, Gen?s knuckles in Gouken?s palm and Gouken?s fingers curled around Gen?s tight fist.
?You can end it now Gen, we don?t have to continue. I have a lot of respect for you. This fight taught me a lot. We don?t have to beat each other into the ground?.you and I both know who will win now.? Gouken said, his voice calm and stern. Gen pushed his fist into Gouken?but his arm would not budge. Seconds drifted into minutes, both fighters standing still as statues.
Gouki watched from the sidelines, his cold eyes focused on the match with slightly spread legs and folded arms. He sensed Gen was about to forfeit the fight.
Gen can still win, if only he holds out. He could wear Gouken down, and in his weariness Gouken would make mistakes?.
Gouki stopped mid-thought, he knew the scenario would not play out as he thought. Gen would tire before Gouken, Gen is pushing and straining, Gouken is using no more than he must now. A saying told to them by Goutetsu suddenly echoed in Gouki?s mind:
?Minimum effort, maximum efficiency.?
He would watch no more, the outcome had been decided. Gouki turned and slowly walked away, cursing to himself.
Gen suddenly shot forward with front kick, Gouken caught his leg and held it. Gen hoped off his other foot, with a jumping reverse roundhouse. Gouken ducked under the kick and punched Gen 10 feet away.
Gen was slow to return to his feet, slower than usual. His movements carried a kind of patience for the inevitable. Gouken stood waiting, then he noticed something:
Gen?s hand was shaking.
Once Gen had returned to his feet he only stared at Gouken, his eyes no longer piercing but rather searching within Gouken?s face for something they both already knew. The setting sun cast an eerie glow on both fighters, the crimson of their spilled blood dissolving in the golden light.
Gen quickly bowed to Gouken and turned, walking away with relaxed stride and swaying arms. Gouken smiled and soon followed.
++++++++++++++++++
?You both did very well, and I am proud of your performances.? Goutetsu started, his voice carrying over the sounds of the night. Gouken and Gouki sat kneeling before him, with Gen and Fei in the background watching.
?Now, this is an ancient tradition of our art. An award is always given to the strongest and most balanced pupil of the two a master takes on.? Goutetsu turned behind him, and emerged with a necklace of brown beads similar to the accessory of a Shaolin monk, only each bead was larger and there were fewer of them due to size. Goutetsu held the necklace in front of him with both hands, dangling it in front of his two students.
?As you can see, my master gave me one?? Goutetsu had re-donned his white uniform, his own bead necklace around his neck. ?..and now Gouken I am giving one to you.? Gouken promptly stood, and Goutetsu slid the necklace around his neck. Gouken solemnly bowed and sat.
?Gouki, this is not meant to diminish your achievements. Your path was more difficult than Gouken?s, even if you achieved less than your brother it does not mean you are any less a martial artist.? Gouki nodded, his face unreadable.
?Would anyone like to say anything else?? Master Fei walked to the front, with Gen trailing behind.
?You two boys did well, Goutetsu trained you well. I cannot wait to see the impact you two make on the world. And do not be a stranger to visit me in China, my students need new punching bags.? Fei chuckled as Gen opened his mouth to speak, something he usually did not do.
?Gouken and Gouki. I was honored to fight you both, and have learned much. I hope to meet you both again in the near future?and this time Gouken?.I won?t bow out.? Gen?s signature smirk returned for a split second as he and Fei turned to leave.
?Well I guess that?s it?..you boys are free to go.?
