***Jin Kazama's Diary
I was a veterinarian on my way to America
to attend a business meeting
when our ship had an accident. I was able to survive the wreckage,
getting
hold of a life raft. But as the days pass, my rations were consumed
and not
a trace of hope can be seen across the blue salt water horrizon. I
finally
gave up and losing my sanity, jumped off the raft to die...yet, destiny
had
something more to offer me...
I woke up on a soft, warm bed in a very cozy
room lit by a flaming
fireplace. I was asking myself if this was heaven...though I found
out later
it was a terrible nightmare...***
Jin: (Blinking...) Urm...??? What...?! Where...where am I?! (Sitting
up)
Huh?! God, am I dead?! Is this the after life?
Suddenly, an old man entered the room. He was elegantly dressed in velvet
robes. He had a belt on, a whip strapped on it. He looked at the young
man.
Hei: Ah! I see you've awaken. Goodness, we're glad you are alright.
Jin: Huh?! Who...who are you?!
Hei: (Sitting by the bed) I am Mr. Heihachi, the owner of this Island.
I
welcome you, young man. What is your name?
Jin: K-Kazama...Jin Kazama...
Hei: What happened to you?
Jin: The ship I was in got havoced. I...I got swiped here by the waves...
Hei: I see. So, Mr. Kazama, what is your occupation?
Jin: I'm...I'm a professional vet.
The old man seemed surprised to hear this. He grinned as he rubbed his
chin
in amusement.
Hei: What a coincedence...Is there anything that you wish to ask, Mr.
Kazama?
Jin: H-how did I get here?
Hei: Ishmael found you by the sea as he was taking his usual walks
by the
shore. He quickly picked you up and ran to me.
Heihachi began to laugh.
Jin: What's so funny?
Hei: Oh, it's a very sarcastic thing. Him, walking and running when
he could
have just used his wings! Hahaha! It makes me proud of our development.
Jin: Huh?! [I](What the hell is that suppose to mean?)[/I]
Hei: Ah, I see that you could not comprehend. Freshen up and come,
I will
introduce you to my family before we eat.
Heihachi left the room and Jin washed up. He found some classy clothes
in
the closet. After which he got out immediately. Heihachi was waiting
for him
just outside.
Hei: Ah! I see the clothes fit you nicely. Ling sure knows how to judge
upon
these things. Ehem...CHILDREN!!!
Voices from the 2nd floor: Coming father!!!
First came down a young teenager in a very lively pink dress. She had
accesorries on her hair, neck and wrists. She came down and hugged
Heiahchi,
giving him a kiss on the cheek.
Hei: This is my only true daughter, Ling Xiaoyu. Ling, this is Mr. Jin
Kazama.
The girl blushed as she waved sheepishly. Jin nodded and she began to
giggle.
Jin: Er...if you don't mind me asking, what do you mean your only "true"
child? Are the others adopted?
At this, Heihachi cackled that made Jin's spine tingle.
Hei: Well, my boy, I wouldn't say they share my blood [-How revolting-
Er...excuse my mannerism ^_^;;;] but I did create them, so I am their
father.
Jin: What?!
At this, a sudden stampede rushed downed from the staircase. And Jin
couldn't have been more surprised. His eyes narrowed, his whole body
was
electrified he almost lost his balance. He would have fainted at that
very
second.
Heihachi's "other children" dressed human and looked human...except
for some
brown or black fur tracing their face. Though it had a bridge, their
noses
were black and protruded a bit. The ears were forming a human's ear,
but was
still animalistic. Their feet and hands, too, still had some fur on,
slightly malformed and their nails were sharp like claws. One of them,
the
red-headed one, still had a tail. And they walked in a strange manner.
Seeing Jin's reaction, Heihachi put his arm around him.
Hei: Do not be shocked, my boy. These...these are products of my research.
These are my development. They are my first batch of success. These...These
are my creations!!!
Jin: Good Gawd!
One of them had brownish fur. He wore a very punkish type of clothes.
His
hair...er...fur that is suppose to be hair, was tainted red. He had
silver
earrings with very rebelious designs, rebelious to the family's asthetic
style that is. He licked his paw-like hand and stroked the fur back
from his
cheeks and began twitching his black-tipped nose.
Hei: Hwoarang! Stop that!!!
Hwo: Hmph...
Hei: Excuse his rudeness, there is still some animal in him. Ehem,
this is
Hwoarang. He was a dog, a brown beauty, though he wasn't very obedient
then,
and still isn't very obedient now!!! (Eyeing his clothes)
Hwo: Hey, wht did I do?!
Hei: What kind of a reply is THAT?!
Hwo: Sorry father...(Rolls eyes and murmurs)
Hei: Be glad we have a visitor, otherwise I'd whip you again!
Kaz: Hmph!
The next one, though also dressed elegantly, looked arrogant.
He stood
tall, proud of his gelled black fur, which beautifully glinted from
the
chandalier's light. His ears were still pointy, and one of his eyes
glinted
an evil red color. His claws were still sharp too.
Hei: This is Kazuya. He was a savage wolf before I turned him into a
decent
human being, capable of intelect and emotions!
Kaz: [I]Heh, we were better off as animals, than to be nothing but
slaves
for your entertainment you old bastard!)[/I]
Jin couldn't resist to ask any longer.
Jin: WAIT...I don't understand! You...you...
Hei: Yes...We have developed a unique project. We have mutated these
savage
creatures into civilized beings like ourselves.
Jin: HUMAN?! Look at them! They still look-!!!
Hei: They are still in development. But I DO have one FULLY successful
transmutation. I believe cats tend to have faster mutations than any
other
animal, as we have observed. Uh...Where is your sister Pai?
Hwo: Dunno...maybe taking a bath by the streams? (Grins and Starts
to play
with his imagination)
Things just didn't seem to register into Jin's head. All these
things...could they POSSIBLY be real?! Is this some sort of twilight
zone?!
Seeing Jin's baffled expression, Heihachi announced...
Hei: Ah! Dinner! Come, my good man. Let us eat. I shall explain all
your
queries at the table.
***
The table was set with so much food, all savory
and delightful to the
tastebuds. But Jin didn't get to taste much of it, he hungered instead
for
reasons, answers to all the question that has been bugging him since
he saw
these...things...
There were two other guests at the table who
joined them. One had
silver hair and was wearing a business suit. He looked very professional
indeed. The other one was an old thin man with glasses and very little
hair.
He wore a scientist's outfit. Heihachi conversed with them until he
noticed
Jin's silence.
Hei: My boy, you've een awfullt quiet. Now is the time to ask anything
that's been bothering you.
Jin: (GLADLY) ...Why...and How?!
Lee: What?
Jin: I mean how did you do this? And most importantly Why?!
Dr.B: I'll answer the how. Using the science of genetic engineering,
we have
learned how to alter the code of an organism. By slowly mutating it
into a
human's genetic code, we produce them.
Jin: (Pausing for a while) Still...why?! Why would you want to alter
God's
creation?!
Lee: (Drinks from a goblet) 'Cos quite frankly, I'm disatisfied with
his
work (Grins)
Jin: !!!
Hei: (laughs) Excuse him, he was just kidding. But the truth is we
are
actually teaching them about God, morals...
Lee: (No I'm not kidding...)
Hwo: (murmurs) Heh, like YOU even believe that shit.
Though it was only a low murmur, Heihachi heard EVERY word of it and
his
ears started to fume. He dropped his utensils madly, pounded his fist
on the
table, stood up, took out his whip and pulled Hwoarang out from the
chair.
Hwoarang whimpered and cried out for mercy, but Heihachi just shoved
him
hard on the floor, just behind Jin's chair. Ling and Dr. B tried to
pull
Heihachi (who was whipping the floor already) back as Hwoarang backed
away
from him. Jin watched in horror as Heihachi punished the young one.
Hwo: NO FATHER PLEASE!!!
Hei: WHAT MUST I DO TO EARN YOUR RESPECT, YOU SON OF A BITCH!!!
DrB: Mr. MISHIMA!!! Calm down!!!
Jin turned to see Lee and Kazuya laughing, not even bothering to help out.
Hwo: PLEASE FATHER, HAVE ME-
Heihachi striked Hwoarang with the whip and he let out a long moan as
he
felt the pang on his leg. He covered his head with his arms as blood
flowed
from the areas Heihachi's whip whacked him.
Ling: (In tears) FATHER PLEASE!!! STOP!!! ENOUGH!!!
Hei: I WILL NOT TOLERATE HIS INSOLENCE ANY LONGER!!!
Ling: DADDY...!!! (Looks around) WE HAVE A GUEST!!! ISN'T THIS SHAMEFUL?!!!
At that, Heihachi stopped and looked at Jin, who was completely shocked
about everything. Then he turned to the bloody hound on the floor,
crippled
like a shrimp, whimpering. A few minutes later, he got up and ran out
from
the dinning hall. Heihachi was embarrassed and didn't have much to
say to
Jin. In a mild tone, he spoke to Jin before he, followed by Dr. B,
left the
room.
Hei: ...When you're done, you can stroll around, if you like...your
room
will be awaiting you...
As all the commotion continued to unfold, nobody gave much of a care
to Lee
and Kazuya's conversation.
Kaz: Heh, he just scares the hell out of everyone. Damn! If he tried
to whip
me, I'll massacre him!!!
Lee: (Drinks) Well, I just hope that if you do, it will be according
to the
plan.
Kaz: Heh, that won't be a problem. With his age and temper AND with
a little
help from HORMONES, I'm sure MOST of the animals will listen to us.
Heh,
I'll bet Hwoarang would LOVE to join us now!
Lee: Though I think Ishmael the wise will pose a problem. A lot of
animals
respect him.
Kaz: Nothing I can't handle...
Lee: I do hope so.
***
Hwoarang cried as he licked his wounds (literally), sitting on a ledge
by
the pillars of the hall leading to the garden. The night was silent
and only
his moans and the nightinggales could be heard by the woman dressed
in an
all black silk, covering every inch of her white skin. It was quite
fit
around her waist, making the curves of her body prominent. She walked
on
with her barefeet. She covered her face with a black lace, making her
look
like an arabian girl. Except for her hands, which she used to cover
her
face, and eyes, not a single flesh could be seen. She was the first
ever
successful transformation Heiahachi and his team have, yet she disliked
showing off her body. She approached the Hwoarang gently and spoke
to him,
her voice sweet anf gentle like little golden bells.
Pai: Hwoarang?
Hwo: (Lifts his head) WHO GOES THERE?!
Pai: It's me...
Hwo: Oh..(sniff)
Pai: what happened?
Hwo: Guess (Shows lashes)
Pai: OH!!!
She rushed to him and, sitting beside him, wiped the blood with her
sleeve.
Hwoarang just looked at her as she did this, running his eyes on her.
Hwo: ...I never saw father whip YOU once.
Pai: That's because I don't cause trouble silly!
Hwo: WHY DOES HE HATE ME SO MUCH?!
Pai: He DOESN'T hate you. He only wants to teach you the right thing.
Hwo: OH YEAH?! Well then why does he have to whip me EVERYtime I do
something wrong?! I have ears you know!
He looked at her again then looked out into the garden.
Hwo: He NEVER did that to you! He always uses kind words when you do
something wrong. But with me? Make one fucking mistake and he takes
out
that...that HORRIBLE whip again!
Pai: Oh Hwoarang...
Pai carressed him, wrapping her arms to his neck, pulling him to her
and
stroking his hair. Hwoarang let her rock him back and forth for a while,
then he kissed her shoulder and slowly climbed up to her neck. Pai
tried to
push him away.
Pai: Hwoarang...!!!
At this point, Hwoarang held her by her waist. Pai struggled to get
free.
Finally with one strong shove, she manage to brake free from his grasp,
almost losing her balance as she stood up, looking at him madly. She
was
blushing as she ran away from the hall.
Hwo: (snaps fingers) Damn! Almost had it!
Lee: (Clapping his hands) VERY INTRIGUING INDEED!!!
Hwoarang turned to see Lee appear from the end of the shadowy hall.
He
slowly walked towards Hwoarang, who started to growl.
Hwo: WHAT THE FUCK-
Lee: Tututut!!! You shouldn't speak like that! Or else I'll tell your
"father" of what I just saw! Believe me, he's not gonna let you in
the house
EVER again!
Hwo: DON'T YOU DARE!!!
Lee: Well, I have a proposal...
