Vice...
Ah, yes, the Vice of all Vices. I like Vice, she's neat (And she looks like Chris, or Chris looks like her). Vice, as you probably know, pals around with Mature all over the place. Can we say Female Yamazaki? Well, kinda, Vice is also in one of those controlled Eternal Heathen Modes. Vice and Mature can be compared to a lot of people (Ralf and Clark) that's just what I do personally. Vice had been aware of her Orochi-ness for quite some time, explaining why she and Mature were working for the Big G (Goenitz), carrying out all of his more public biddings. Could she and Mature have been heavily influenced at Big G's merciless orochi awakening of Leona, making her kill all the people in her home town? Or were Vice and Mature even there at the time. My point? No one knows very much about Vice's past at all. But enough with the vague assumptions, on to what I know.
Vice is an automatically violent Orochi, yes one of the eight. ers being the Orochi-ness of Vice. In battle, it's like she's in the Riot of Blood, but she's not, she's just crazy nonetheless. I believe that she and Mature actually met through the Big G, their first real assignment being to watch over Rugal. you see, the kids listen to the jazz music, I mean, Rugal is a big greedy block of mess who tried to seize a bit of Orochi power, but got busted by Goenitz (you might say, Goenitz was the... blockbuster!) and Goenitz toyed with him and gave him some Orochi power as an experiment you might say. Vice, along with Mature, was to kinda keep track of Rugal. So they decided to become his secretary's, the ones who basically did most of the work he took credit for. Then Rugal gone went and exploded (Like Mech-Zangief) and Vice and Mature were releived of their job of watching the big block of putrid..... oh, I don't know,... pudding tang.
Oh, but no, Goenitz was to have them keep an eye out for the newbie orochi guy, Yagami Iori. Now the fun starts. I beleve Vice was the one who personally atacked Iori as Mature watched on. Seeing that he was all big and buff as he was cracked up to be, they decided to join his KOF '96 team. Iori, not one who likes being played with, was all against it, but the women played off of Iori's thirst for the death of Kusanagi Kyo, (Vice had a little Kusanagi grudge herself), and Iori did need a team, so he had one, even though Vice and Mature hated him with a passion, (Iori was not all that jazzed either). So they entered. As Vice observed Iori ripping people apart, she started to think, "now would I ever want to be on the other side of that Jerry Springer beat down carnage?" Mature was thinking the same thing, and they decided that Iori had more power potential that Goenitz, so they turned against Goenitz and sided with him, (Iori was oblivious to the whole shabang). When the time came to take on Goenitz, Kyo and Iori kinda just took him out, so Vice was satisfied with her choice. But Goenitz warned her before he disappeared that her "savior" would be the end of her. Then he pulled a 1980's Leona style Orochi take over on Iori, who then, with his addiitonal heathen trots, took out Vice and Mature. But was this the end of our Vice? Well, she is evil so she migh have survived..... But '98 is here, and even though it has no storyline, I belive that Vice is alive and well (with a grudge of course) because if Rugal can return again, so can she. Strange how she's on Iori's team again, after what iori did to all of his teammates, i'm surprised people let him within 50 feet, (maybe it's because he's cool).
Vice kinda just sits waiting for Orochi to come, it seems that she has little value in her life when it comes to otherwise, so..... Anyway, about her Kusanagi grudge? Wll, from what I know, it's an aquired thing from a bad experience. It seems that she and Mature were the ones who brainwashed Saishu Kusanagi (and here the lying block-feind Rugal said he did, more Blockbusters!) While Mature was giggling away, having a blast with all dem gadgets and tinker-toys, Vice hated the work which was complicated and tedious. So now she just hates Saishu. With it comes the package. If you hate the father of the family you're most likely NOT going to like the rest. I don't know what's with her and Mature. I've heard that they are best friends, then I hear that they just were together and couldn't give a good granny for the other. I personally go with them being best friends, or to be more precise, the best friends each one will ever have, sinnce Orochi-ness keeps them from normally socializing that much. The deal with Rugal is that it was only a job. Vice doesn't like him or anything (he's replaced Vice and Mature with new secretaries anyway). Now that he's back, both Vice and Mature kinda want a piece of him, a good Rugal beating never hurt. (Obvious contradiction). Anyway, nothing further with Rugal that a little deception. We all know that Vice is an Orochi, so there are obvious ties to the rest (like the Band team, yey!) Goenitz was thought to be the head of them all, so Vice wen directly to him, but he was smote (and the leader turns out to be Yashiro N.). That's the only reason Vice even worked for Goenitz, that's why she turned against him when she figured she had found a stronger power to work for. It seems that that's what she and Mature do, find the most powerful person to side with. Only that powerful person BEAT THEM UP! (Iori gets crazier everyday. It's fun to wait and see what he'll do next). What about this Yamazaki thing. Vice and ol' Yama do act kinda similar. Could there be a tie? Well yes, they are orochi's, but not all of them act the way Vice and Yamazaki do. And what about her similar appearence to Chris? Maybe it's just the hair cut, but they sure do kinda look alike.
