Arrival in the city!

[taekwondozephyr]

This city is amazing! I mean, I’ve seen quite a few cities on the tournament trips, but this one is really something else! Reminds me of my layover in Southtown last year… but with less graffiti. I wonder if there’s any food shops here like at the Dongdaemun Market… maybe I should go looking later.

This room is something else, too… really upscale! I feel kind of humbled to be staying in such a room, but it seems like it’s insisted, and… I don’t want to rock the boat. I wonder if they’d be okay with some different curtains, something that lets the light in better than these…

I think I’m going to get a shower in, and then head down to check out this “state of the art” training facility. I hope they’ve got some durable gadgets - I have yet to find a training dummy that can withstand a Phoenix Kick!

What the fuck... girls...

You'd better not pussy out the first time someone hits you...

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

...well, looks like the fun types have already shown up.

Do you want me to pull my punches so I don't break anything, tough guy?

[str8jkt-fashion.livejournal.com]

I'd give you some credit if you could break more than a nail.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

Oh, so you're a sexist, and a jerk! Great!

While it's bad form to break an opponent's bones in a tournament, I might make an exception for you... provided you even prove to be a challenge in the first place.

[str8jkt-fashion.livejournal.com]

Sexist? I don't give a FUCK about sex. Every girl I've met, Storm Rider or not, cries like a BITCH after scraping their knee. I'd be glad to see one who doesn't.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

Crying is not something I do, tough guy. The only things I do are fight, and fight well.

[str8jkt-fashion.livejournal.com]

Good. Prove it.

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

Boy are you in for a shocker.

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

...Phoenix Kick?

CHAE LIM!

1/2

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

2/2

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

It can't be...

Sunbae?!

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

The legendary Dynamic May Lee, at your service!

Oh man, I'm so psyched that you're here, Lim!

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

I really didn't expect to see you here, May Lee-sunbae! Though... I can't say it surprises me, what with how much you've wanted to return to the arenas.

So, how's the competition around here look to you, so far?

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

There's like, only TWO nice people I've met. Everyone else has been a jerk to me. And you'll never guess who else is here...

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that first guy needs a new attitude... though I met another newcomer who seems all right.

...please don't tell me it's Dong Hwan...

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

Worse. Angel of NESTS.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

Angel?!

Well, it figures that not all the fighters would be of the just variety...

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

She hasn't changed in the years since our last meeting at all. I can't wait to get back at her for my loss in the 2001 tournament.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

I have faith in you, and faith in Master Kim's teachings, sunbae. There's no doubt that you can defeat her with the strength you posses.

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

Well, beyond defeating her... I think I should do for her what Master Kim did for Choi and Chang. She's going down the path of ruin as it is...

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

You think it might work?

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

I think it's at least worth a shot.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

Of course, you've got me to help you if you need it. The righteousness of justice will triumph over all evils!

[dynamic-may-lee.livejournal.com]

Right! Aku wa yurusan!

[warrior-wez.livejournal.com]

Another strong woman...We had few.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

That's too bad. All women should be strong, if not physically, then at least mentally and emotionally. Weakness is one thing, but weakness without another strength to overcome? That's terrible.

[warrior-wez.livejournal.com]

All women with Humungus were strong...Usually slaves, though.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

...Slaves?!

No one should be a slave to anyone!

[warrior-wez.livejournal.com]

Either that or death.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

That's...

...that's evil! Who is this "Humungus"?! He has to be shown just why evil cannot be forgiven!

[warrior-wez.livejournal.com]

The one who led the wasteland's scavengers. He saved us all from death. You can't touch him.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

Just because he saved you from death doesn't give him the right to kill others... especially not for refusing to be slaves under him!

Don't these people know their right to free will?

[warrior-wez.livejournal.com]

You didn't understand. Either women be slaves or die in the desert. Or we kill them for their gas. Some join to fight like us.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

...nothing you're telling me is making it any more right.

[warrior-wez.livejournal.com]

You're like the woman guarding the gas. Stupid pride.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

You wish. That woman probably couldn't shatter concrete with a kick. Me, on the other hand...

[warrior-wez.livejournal.com]

That didn't matter. You are stupidly proud and understand nothing.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

I understand that this Humungus guy enslaved people or left them to die. That's all I need to understand. Evil is not a complex subject.

[warrior-wez.livejournal.com]

I want to see your spirit crushed.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

Never gonna happen! The spirit of justice cannot be destroyed!

[warrior-wez.livejournal.com]

You will be fun to destroy.

[taekwondozephyr.livejournal.com]

You're welcome to try it, any time, any where!
