First Brawl: Round Two, FIGHT! [Action/Video]

[feetoffury]

[Agent Chun-Li was not going to be amused, at all. Suddenly waking up, sopping wet, was not her idea of a good time. And she couldn't help but shake the feeling that this was not the first time. She drowsily stirred, trying to shake off the heat of the hot spring and blearily make her way to out of the water. What is my life she thinks to herself, looking around the oddly familiar bathhouse for some sign of where she might be. Grumbling, she roots around until she finds a towel and thankfully her qipao had been folded up on a nearby table. On top of a familiar looking book...with her name written on it.

THAT got a low groan...and the detective flopped down to review.]

Ugh. Luceti.

[Not long after that, a Video came up over the network. Now dressed, dried and with her hair done up in proper ox-horns, the Interpol Agent coughed and stood before the camera, arms clasped in front of her.]

Good afternoon everyone. My name is Agent Chun-Li, and for those of you who remember me, hello!

If you don't, then allow me to introduce myself. I'm a police officer from Interpol, and I spent some time here during the last summer it seems. Back home I spend my free time teaching kung-fu and other sorts of wu-shu. I'm originally from Hong-Kong, but I've spent a lot of time travelling the last few years. Keeping busy with work, you know? My memory of being here before is pretty clear now that I've had the chance to go through the journal again, so don't hesitate to contact me if you want to talk or you need help.

I'm hoping not too much has changed in town, I can definitely remember this place having some really good food. And...I've gathered that it's getting getting into November so I guess that means it's going to get cold soon? Anyone who's been here through winter mind telling me what I need to be prepared for? I don't usually get outside the cities too much back home.

Anyway, it's nice to be back I suppose. If you see me wandering around town, don't be a stranger, alright? I don't bite.

[Chun-Li bows politely and cuts off the feed. She can be found around town, at the Clothing Shop, Item Shop, various restaurants, the Welcome Center, and the Smithy to collect her bracelets as well.]

(ooc: Tag her wherever you like, around town, at the hot springs, over the journal. I'm cool with whatever, break all the time you want!)

Comments

[feetoffury]

That is the point of it. Way bigger than where I'm from.

[fierybluebird]

Heh, I can't really imagine, eh. Everything's all islands or ocean where I'm from. Did you get to travel a lot though?

[feetoffury]

Yea, all the time. For work.

[She shrugs and eats a bit more]

Shadaloo's all over the world.

[fierybluebird]

That doesn't sound too bad then.

But I guess it makes being trapped here even harder, eh.

[feetoffury]

It's work. So it's paperwork, tracking down dangerous criminals...fighting...all that stuff? Honestly, it stops being fun after a while.

Staying in one place longer than a week. Now that is a vacation.

[fierybluebird]

And yet you keep at it.

Hah, good. And if you get bored or lonely, you know where to find me, eh?

[feetoffury]

It's for my father. I have to.

[She nods back]

I do. Need to find a place to stay anyway.

[fierybluebird]

[Softens his expression.] Of course.

Ah, I'd offer you a place with us, but we're pretty loud. And I practically killed Ace when he let Shanks stay for a month.

Our building in general is pretty open though. We just cleared out Shanks apartment since he went home.

[feetoffury]

Oh, I'm not sure your girlfriend would like you living with an old flame.

[She smirks]

But I'll consider this one. Only person I knew in my old one was that old samurai guy, Goroh. But he left before I did.

[fierybluebird]

[Small blush.]

Aye that too.

Take a look, eh? Although we do get a little rowdy. But the flag's still on the roof with Pops' memorial, so the people here are pretty good about it.

[feetoffury]

Heh, that's fine. You're no worse than Ken and Ryu.

[She nods]

Well, I wouldn't worry about Pop's memorial. I'd beat the tar out of anyone who tried taking it down for you.

[fierybluebird]

[Grins ear to ear.] You might have a tough time beating me to it, but thank you.

Most people seem wise enough not to bother. The only one who came close was an idiot named Lupin, but I think I sufficiently deterred him.

Actually it's reassuring. Back home, someone would try to take it down. Just because it's there, eh. [And that is why treasure has to be protected.]

[feetoffury]

Lupin? Really?

[She groans]

That idiot tried to mess with the flag?

[fierybluebird]

Threatened to. Back when I first put it up.

You know him?

[feetoffury]

Yea, from my first time here.

[She rolls her eyes]

He's a brazen thief, I'll give him that. But I figured he'd have more respect than that.

[fierybluebird]

He managed to resist the temptation I'll give him that much. Although I did point blank inform him I'd be all too happy to kick him off the eight story rooftop.

[feetoffury]

Don't do that. He's just a regular guy.

I'll give him a good sound whack on the head for even thinking it when I see him, if he's still around.

[fierybluebird]

It was a long time ago, but suit yourself.

[If Lupin ever did touch it though... yeah Marco would still kick him off the roof.]

Admittedly I don't really understand people who want to be the best for the best's sake, eh?

[feetoffury]

Challenge? I don't know. I've got the title I want back home.

[fierybluebird]

There's a difference between wanting to prove you're the best to protect something and wanting power for power's sake, eh?

[feetoffury]

Yea. A big difference. There are people like me and my friends. And then there's Bison.

[fierybluebird]

Aye. It really is a big difference though, eh.

[feetoffury]

Extremely. There isn't anything wrong with being powerful, and wanting to be strong. But when you hold it over other people? That's unforgivable.

[fierybluebird]

Mah... I don't mind it being held over people. Like Pops used his title as the world's strongest to keep people from attacking the islands.

But Teach... [Small growl.] Blackbeard, he's just after the islands for the sake of the power itself. He wants to be the strongest to be the King. To be acknowledged as the strongest.

[feetoffury]

Well, Whitebeard did things differently. He wasn't out to conquer the world, and he certainly didn't want to kill innocent bystanders.
