The plane landed, and the two quickly hopped off, grabbing their bags and leaving the air port.
�Man, I�m stiff!� Ken said. �Race ya! Go!�
�Hey, wait a minute!� Ryu shouted, quickly sprinting up behind Ken. �I wasn�t ready!�
�Snooze, ya lose, bud!� Ken shouted with a laugh. The two ran all the way to the temple, lightly sweating when they arrived. And of course, Ken won.
�You cheated!� Ryu panted.
�Hey, I don�t need to cheat,� Ken said. �I�m too good to have to.�
Ryu grimaced at Ken, and the two walked up the something over four dozen steps, and entered the temple.
�Whoa.�
�Took the words right out of my mouth, Ryu.�
Before the two stood eight menacing looking fighters. Two from four different countries. England, the US, China, and Japan.
�Ryu, I think we�ve got our work cut out for us.�
�Definetly.�
�Greetings, all of you,� an old man said as he entered through a pair of huge doors.
�Welcome to the first Street Fighter tournament. I�m glad you all could make it...�
�Ryu?�
�He said hi, and he�s glad to see us,� Ryu said. He was the one that knew thai.
�Today the ten of you will test yours skills, attempting to prove exactly who is the most powerful fighter in the world. Now, let me introduce our champions.�
The doors opeened again, and another man stepped out. He looked barely a little bit older than Ryu and Ken, but was a little bigger. He was thai, but his red hair almost made you believe otherwise. It was spiked, and seemed to dance somewhat like fire. If that didn�t give him a devilish quality, the evil sneer on his face more than did. His clothes were traditional thai, and from his build Ryu knew that he had studied muay thai.
�Allow me to introduce Adon!� the old man said. �He is a extrodanairy fighter, taught in the ways of muay thai. He is seconded only by one man...�
From the darkness of the doors, a man emerged. The man was 7�6. He WAS muscle.
�This, is Sagat! The undefeated champion of the world, and Adon�s master!�
Sagat wore muay thai clothing like Adon, but had a patch over his right eye. His head was bald, and even it seemed to be filled with muscle.
�The winners of these coming matches will proceed to fight Adon and Sagat,� the old man explained. �Now, without further delay, let the tournament begin!�
�I don�t know what Sensei Gouken was thinking,� Ryu said to Ken, �but we�re are definetly...uhm...what�s that word?�
�Screwed,� Ken replied.
�That�s it!�
