AN:
This is another angle I thought would be fun to explore, it might not be as serious as my other fic, but i wanted to try something light hearted though be warned it might get serious! I wrote it a long time ago, so it is filled with a different mood and atmosphere, and my pathetic attempts to be funny!

Chapter 1; The beginning.

It all started in the beginning of the tournament, when Kazuya had announced the tournament to begin. The press was their taking pictures and writing and filming everyone wanted to know everything. They pulled the competitors aside, one at the time to know a little about them. It was a tense day with press and everything.

And when Kazuya Mishima arrived the press moved like a wave, while the press asked fast for questions and the photographers clicked away with there photo cameras.

"As you know I have announced The King Of Iron Fist 2. And today I officially state it open. Your schedules will be delivered to your hotel rooms, so you can see whom your challenger is. And for the press the schedules will be listed for the present day, so you won't be able to see the fighting schedules two days ahead. And the opening ceremony before the tournament is tomorrow night. More information will be given, to the competitors. Also the press is welcome at the opening ceremony, and will also receive information in the right time. I hope you will enjoy your stay here in Tokyo. Thank you" he said and was about to go down, when a journalist began asking questions.

"Mr. Mishima is you father still alive?" She asked.

"I don't know, but if you see him say hello from me" Kazuya answered joking.

"How are you going to end this tournament, the last match I mean?" Another male journalist asked.

"What is your name?" Kazuya asked.

"Joe" he answered.

"From the states I presume"

"Then you would be presuming right"

"Right then, I cannot tell you as I am still looking for a place."

"What will you say to the accuses drawn against you about abuse of animals"

"All I can say is that…" Kazuya was about to speak when he got interrupted.

"Mr. Mishima will not be answering any further of your questions, as he has a tight schedule to keep. Any other time or day would have been great." His adopted brother Lee Chaolon stated.

"His so fake" a native woman from the states said.

"Excuse me" a Japanese woman said, who wanted to get past her.

"Oh sorry, are you from the press"

"No"

"Great, I would have been in trouble if they heard me. They would start to ask me questions. Anyways are you here for the tournament"

"Yes, what about you."

"Same here, my name is Michelle Chang by the way." Michelle said offering her hand to shake.

"Jun Kazama, nice to meet you" Jun said and accepted her hand and greeted her.

"Here for revenge."

"No, and nothing I can talk about"

"Most of them in here are here for revenge, power and others to stop him"

"He's not one of those persons, that is loved by the people."

"No, but the press does"

"You don't say"

"The newest headlines is, that Nina an assassin is after Kazuya to kill him of course, and her sister Anna is hired as his bodyguard" Michelle said taking a sip of her drink, trying to prevent herself from laughing. "Thats the most ridiculous story i've heard so far" she stated coldly.

"And I thought he could protect himself" Jun answered, wondering how he came about his day with those body guards.

"Sure, but not in public. He would be hitting a woman!" Michelle stated with a small smile on her lips.

"Yeah, the press is like sharks, they attack anyone." Jun stated after own experience.

"Have you been interviewed, yet" Michelle asked Jun curious, but Jun just looked at her blankly. "Then watch your back don't say something you don't want twisted, I mean it seriously."

"Thank you for your advice, but I can watch my back. Let's go and check in now"

"Sure,"

"Hi, we both would like to check in" Jun said to the receptionist.

"Yes of course, are the both of you here for the tournament."

"Yeah" Michelle said and stepped up.

"Okay, I can get you your own separate rooms or you can share one" the receptionist said after she had been into the computer database.

"You'll have each a separate room, one bathroom you'll have to share and a living room and a kitchen of course. That's if you want to share a room. You can also get rooms for yourselves. It's your decision" The receptionist said after she had been on their hotel database.

"What do you think Jun, we could share a room. Or have one each."

"What do you say about sharing" Jun said and smiled.

"I'd love to" Michelle answered Jun.

"Okay then book us up for the double room then."

"Okay and you are now booked for it, your number is 204 and you can get the piccolo to show you the room and carry your bag of course." The receptionist said giving them paper and the key card.

"Thanks, what are the papers for"

"Oh, they are for tomorrow where the ball will be and when, and other type of information on the tournament. You'll receive your schedules, on the morning after the ball."

"Thanks" Jun and Michelle answered.

"And if you want I can give you two card keys. So both of you can have one"

"Sure that would be good" Michelle said.

"Here you go" The receptionist said and gave it to Michelle. "Ken could you show them there way to room nr. 204"

"Yes of course, this way ladies" Ken said and shoved them the way.

AN: not the most interesting ending or chapter i'll admit, but i hope it will get better. Tell me what you think and I hope you'll be back for more!
