 The Call:

Ryu stood in front of a group of people in his living room. A woman with long blonde hair and a long scar from her left cheek to her chin, sat on the end on the couch. Next to her was a woman with long brown hair. They were talking to a woman with black hair.

Ryu looked at the woman, trying to think of a way to make them quiet down. He looked to his brother Liu for help. Liu grinned and shook his head, not intending to help Ryu. Instead he patted ken and jerked his head toward the women.

"Okay girls, time to stop gossiping, we have more important things to talk about." Ken taunted.

They all turned around, eyebrows raised glaring at Ken.

"Jeez, I was kidding." Ken said quickly not wanting to feel their wrath.

"Girls, you could beat Ken up later. Now we have business to attend to. Guys are you still there?" Ryu directed his attention to the phone.

Cammy, having connections to various phone numbers in her line of work, had tracked down several Street Fighters. Dan, Charlie, Dhalsim, Zangief, T. Hawk, Rose, E. Honda, Guy, Gen, Balrog, and Dee Jay were on three way. (Either one of the recipients had three way or had someone at their house; using speaker phone.) They hadn't been able to get in touch with Fei Long since he was making a movie in LA.

"Yea we're here." They sand in chorus.

"Ok, since you guys are the nearest to Shadowloo, where is Bison now?"

Gen, being the closest to Shadowloo, answered "he has not moved. It is strange that he stays in one position."

"Yes, I agree. He seems to be waiting for something." Liu seemed deep in thought.

For a moment there was silence, then...

"Who the hell was that?" Charlie asked.

"Oh, that's my brother, Liu." Ryu answered uneasily.

"What?! You have a brother? Since when?" Dan, asking a completely idiotic question.

"Not now, we still have to figure out what to do." Ryu, changing the subject.

"You guys come out to China, when you get here we'll form a plan. Now about your brother." Dan insisted on getting an answer.

"I can talk for myself you know and I do have a name." Liu, slightly agitated.

"Sorry, so how long have you been Ryu's brother?"

Liu rolled his eyes, "My whole life, and I'd rather not talk about it on the phone." Liu's voice rose slightly as his anger did.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to be nosey."

" Well your doing a great job pretending to be."

I said sorry. Not my fault if your over sensitive."

"OVER WHAT?!"

"Ok, so it's settled. We go to China, meet you everyone there.." Ryu tried to stop them from arguing.

"You heard me. I said that you were over sensitive."

" Ok, when we get to China we'll see who's over sensitive." Liu challenged.

" Fine then."

Ryu walked over and press the button to hang up the phone.

"What was that guy's name?" Liu was obviously still mad.

" Dan, Liu come here for a second. I wanna talk to you." Liu followed Ryu into the kitchen, leaving Ken to the women he scorned.

"Now ladies, you know I was kidding. Did I mention how beautiful you look?" Ken grinned nervously.

"Liu, come on he doesn't mean it. He just wanted to know about you that's all." Ryu tried to coax his brother into not fighting Dan.

"I don't care. He was being nosey. And that's not even the point. He called ME over sensitive. Of all people ME. He doesn't know me, who the hell does he think he's talking to like that?" Liu began to pace.

"Liu, please I want this to be a peaceful trip. Your going to be fighting with this guy to save the world, at least try to get along."

"No, Ryu. I've made up my mind." Liu folded his arms stubbornly.

Ryu pouted, looking down at the floor. Then he looked at his brother with that puppy dog look that would make Liu do whatever he wanted when they were children.

Liu rolled his eyes, "No Ryu, its not gonna work."

Ryu continued to pout.

Liu sighed, "Ok, fine. I won't fight him. But if he hits on Kitana then I'm pounding him." Liu held out a warning finger.

" I could live with that." Ryu grinned evilly at Liu.

"I hate that look." Muttered Liu.
