He peered around the corner, his cloak blowing in the night wind. He staggered to a hault and looked up at the sky. He laughed sinisterly as the wind blew on his face, and rustled his already shuffled hair. His eye flashed with a glint of evil as he looked around him.

"The forest..the trees..all of it..will be destroyed. I've never felt so good, that little punk in the dojo provided a very nice supply of energy. Curse it all, if I hadnt killed Ryu I'd be at full power by now. A worthy sacrifice I suppose, with him out of the way there is no one who can stop me...no one but.." he stopped and thought for a minute, but soon broke out into a dull laughter. "As soon as I have achieved my full potential NOONE will stop me."

He tossed a wave of fire at a tree and watched it burn. The fire slowly spread and before he knew it, another tree was on fire, followed by another. Before long the entire forest was ablaze. He looked in pleasure at the destruction he caused and walked off, now seeming to have more energy after the self-discourse. He sent one more blast into the fire and caused a massive eruption, and with that he headed back to the city.

Morning broke. He stood at the balcony of his mansion and looked over the city with great delight. This was his empire, he was the king of the mechanical jungle.He pressed a button on his desk and in walked a tall, blond man dressed in an expensive looking suit.

"Well,well...look who it is..it appears you arent dead after all." The man said with a snide grin.

"Hmhmhm, I am immortal....I CANT die..." He responded placing his drink on the table. " Now, Geese, I'm sure you're wondering why I've called you here,right?"

Geese just lifted his head and smiled with a sly laugh. "I'm sure it has something to do with your recent escapades...correct?" He said tilting his head and grinning.

He whipped around and snarled at Geese. "What do you know....more importantly..how do you know?"

"Please, the underground world knows all about you. We know everything the media doesnt. You think we werent paying attention the night everything went down at Osaka?" Geese smiled as he took his seat in front of him.

"Who else knows..." He questioned looking down at Geese.

" What does it matter? Now tell me..what have you called me here for?" Geese said with a hint of arrogance in his voice.

He laughed and walked to Geese, which in turn caused Geese to stand up toe to toe with the tall man. " You see..." He clutched Geese by the throat and lifted him into the air. "I need your power...your energy."

Geese snarled and struggled away, losing only a little bit of energy. He sent a double repukken wave at the name almost fully empowered man standing by the window. The man held his hand out and caused the wave to reflect and fly back torwards him. Geese rolled out of the way, but the door behind him was destroyed. The explosion caused alarm downstairs and immdiately Eiji and Mr. Big stood in the doorway. Mr. Big charged him full speed but was paralyzed by a quick stomach shot. He was lifted into the air by the throat, in typical fashion.

"HAHAHA! IMBECILE!!" He held Mr. Big in his left hand as Eiji prepared to attack. Eiji ran forward and propelled himself into the air. He dropped from the sky with his foot pointed downward, but he was soon left suspended in the air. Soon Eiji found himself lifeless in the hands of the menacing figure. Now all that was left was to take care of Geese. "Come now, Mr. Howard, join your friends as part of my trophy case.

"Hehehehe...." Geese pulled something from his jacket and charged him. Eiji and Mr. Big were hurled at Geese, but he maneuvered away from them. He reached his target and rolled right under him. He spun around to see what had happened. Geese dove through the window, shattering glass everywhere. In the all the haze and confusion, a bomb was seen on the carpet.

"Wha-" Before he could get the words out of his mouth the entire upper floor was completely destroyed by the explosion. Geese looked up at the burning tower and smiled.

He brushed his jacket off and got in his limosine, then motioning the driver to proceed. He reclined and shut both of his eyes, smiling as the flames flew everywhere. "Goodbye, Mr. Bernstien"

"I trust everything went well, Mr. Howard?" His guard, Billy Kane, said grinning.

"Of course, Kane...or course..." He rolled up his window and regressed into a state of sleep.
