[FIC] Unlikely Angel [Chapters 45-Epilogue]

2008-08-24T16:26:03Z

Oh my, this appears to be the end. I don't know if I want to cry or whoop for joy. It's always so fulfilling to finish something of this size. I've never written anything so large before, but I'm glad I could finish it off in a nice way. I polished off the last chapter (45) and I wanted an Epilogue to sorta shed some light on the aftermath of the tournament and how Jin and Hwoarang are getting on in the Zaibatsu. So, here we are. Enjoy!

Summary: Hwoarang had his own problems to deal with, but when Jun Kazama approached him with an offer he couldn't refuse, he found himself in possession of powers he'd never asked for, and a promise to help his rival, Jin Kazama overcome the Devil that had recently overpowered him. However, to counteract pure evil, he needed the power of pure good; the strength of an Angel.

[Chapter 45]   → Jun's cry for help brought them together, and now that the danger has past, there is nothing that could keep them apart. They have a whole lifetime ahead of them and actions speak louder than words.

[Epilogue]   → What happens once the danger is past?

[FIC] Unlikely Angel [Chapters 43-44]

2008-07-07T00:00:17Z

Two mega-fight chapters. It's drawing to a close and I'm feeling kinda happy/sad about the whole thing. Not finished yet, though!

Summary: Hwoarang had his own problems to deal with, but when Jun Kazama approached him with an offer he couldn't refuse, he found himself in possession of powers he'd never asked for, and a promise to help his rival, Jin Kazama overcome the Devil that had recently overpowered him. However, to counteract pure evil, he needed the power of pure good; the strength of an Angel.

[Chapter 43]   → The Blood Talon finds himself in his long-awaited match against Jin, and he's not too sure if it's a good idea. Jin claims Devil has left him alone for good, but Hwoarang isn't so sure. He must beat Jin to keep the other fighter from reaching the final stage and the great evil, but how far will the redhead go to stop him?

[Chapter 44]   → Hwoarang recovers from his injuries and wakes up completely alone. His friends are strangely absent and nobody will tell him what happened to Jin. There is only one opponent standing between the Blood Talon and victory, and in order to destroy the evil giving Devil an unfair advantage, he will do whatever it takes to beat Jinpachi.

Oh, and visit my poll for something that might turn into something interesting. Maybe ^_^

[Chapter 41]   → Hwoarang is noticing Jin's descent into something darker than he is.

[Chapter 42]   → The tournament is drawing to a close, meaning that the weaker fighers have been eliminated and only the strong remain. Jin's strength is put to the test; has he finally overcome Devil? Has Hwoarang fulfilled his promise?

[Chapter 35]   → Hwoarang and Jin make the journey from Yakushima to the King of Iron Fist Tournament without a hitch. There is an absence of danger when they first arrive, as if the Zaibatsu has no interest in Jin, which is fine, because someone showed up for Hwoarang.

[Chapter 36]   → The arrival of Hwoarang's friends from Korea is sudden and definitely awkward.

[Chapter 37]   → Devil contemplates his position from within his golden prison. He's aware of events beyond the golden walls, including Jin's relationship with Hwoarang. He is trapped in his rage at this fact, until he can feel the dark call of a kindred spirit promising him release.

[Chapter 31]   → Hwoarang and Jin take a trip into Onoaida for a nice, relaxing trip to the hot springs.

[Chapter 34]   → Jin's trip to the salon is quick and inspiring a little action that Hwoarang had missed down on the beach. The rest of the day's plans fly out the window as their baser urges are satiated.

There she finds a way she can repay Hwoarang for everything he's done beyond her request to simply help Jin. The only thing left standing in her way is her inability to properly communicate with Yon to warn her of the sudden danger.

[Chapter 30]   → It's their first morning back in Jin's cabin and Hwoarang is ready to train. It starts off serious, and then somewhere along the line, Jin gets other ideas. Somehow, Hwoarang doesn't mind a little pleasant distraction.

Hmm, yeah, I haven't been posting links to my updates... so I come bearing links to many chapters! ♥ ♥

[Chapter 23]   → Jin and Hwoarang find a safe harbour for the night before deciding on a game plan for how to get back to the South end of the island where Jin lives. Of course, nothing is simple when either man is concerned and what could have been a simple bus ride turns into the beginnings of an adventure.

[Chapter 24]   → Hwoarang follows Jin along the trail through Yakushima. He knew he was prepared to tackle the excursion and any discomforts that would arise, though he was unprepared for the unexpected thoughts about his rival.

[Chapter 25]   → Hwoarang's feelings become stronger the more time he spends with his rival.

[Chapter 26]   → Hwoarang has set his resolve to not get close to Jin, though try telling the other man that. Somehow it was just meant to be.

[Chapter 27]   → Hwoarang never thought he'd find himself kissing Jin like that, but he was, and fuck what anybody had to say about it. If someone was going to get through his defenses, they'd have to be strong, and as far as he knew, Jin was the only person worth letting in. It wasn't justa kiss. It wasn't gratuitous or carnal or anything like the other kisses he'd given and received before. It had been unlikely that he'd find someone worth kissing like that, but then again, he was an unlikely candidate to be there for Jin in the first place.

Notes: I'm going a bit out on a limb with this project. I still love the yaoi, but it won't come out in this for a veeeeery long time. I've spattered a few het hints throughout here, but they'll only stay hints. (I'm still a yaoi lover!) This is plot heavy.
I've labelled this as a Hwo/Jin/Hwo because I love reversing the guys and usually try for variations on both, but can't guarantee if both will top or what will happen. (Blame my wonderful, fickle muse for keeping it a secret from me until I actually *get* to that part.)

[FIC] Lustful Game - Ch 3 - An Angry Devil

2006-11-11T05:42:19Z

Hello everyone! I posted here a while back with the first chapter of a fanfic I wrote featuring Hwoarang/Jin. The second chapter wasn't related to either character, so I didn't mention it here, but the third chapter is right back into it, with Devil Jin/Hwoarang, Jin/Hwoarang, so I thought I'd pop my head back up and point it out.

This story *was* going under the title "Too good to be true" but it's since been changed to Lustful Game. Yeees, I like this title better.

Enjoy! ♥

Jin's resolve isweakened through insults and expensive wine leading to Devil gainingmore ground in his psyche. The two fighters find themselves pittedagainst each other in a violent confrontation as Jin loses control, andit's up to Hwoarang to save him and not get killed while doing it.

New video from Tekken6 is here! XDXDXD And it has Jin/Hwoarang! (At least the way I see it)

http://www.tekkenforces.com/videotek6.html#a

Just follow the link and click on "Vidéo Temps Réel (pré-E3 2006)", then download. I think you can view it in both quicktime and windows media player. It works for me anyway.

And if you can't see it here is the description:

Lili is fighting Jin in slow motion. The graphics look pretty awesome. Suddenly he gets in a hit to her stomach and she flies backwards. They are just about to continue when (and this is all happening in the cathedral stage) Hwoarang comes crashing through the big, colourful window on his bike.

I am not kidding you.

Not exactly the knight in shining armour, and Jin isn't exactly the damsel in distress, but I think it's damn cute anyway. ^^

Hybrid Child - Chapter III: Pregnant Pause

***********************************

Ling Xiaoyu’s heart started to pound and skip a beat every now and then. She was afraid. Terrified. Something had went terribly wrong with her friend, to where he was no longer speaking. ‘Oh no...something’s wrong with Jin!’ she cried to herself, nearly in tears at this point. She had to do something, but her mind was racing so fast that it was hard for her to concentrate on figuring out what she should do in this moment of desperation. ‘I know! I’ll go to Tokyo! I remember Jin telling me he lived there now. That’s what I’ll do!’ Her plan conceived, Ling hurriedly packed a small duffle bag and gathered up her entire savings. She was going to Tokyo.

On a plane en route to Tokyo, Japan from Hong Kong, China, Ling found it hard to control her emotions. Her stomach was in complete knots, and twisting still into other knots. Her face felt hot from the tears and excitement. Her knees knocked. She was never too good at handling emotional moments like this, especially when it concerned the love of her life, Jin Kazama. On the plus side, she was able to find a little comfort from the businesswoman sitting next to her on the plane.

“Don’t worry sweety. I’m sure your boyfriend is fine. Maybe his phone got turned off or something? Things like that happen.” said the American woman, who looked to be in her mid 30's to early 40's. “...you think so?” sniffled Ling as she wiped her tears. The American put one hand on her shoulder and smiled. “Yes I do. Or, maybe he accidentally hung up, or remembered a game was on; men do that.” A smile tried to escape from Xiaoyu. This woman next to her had so much wisdom brimming fourth from her green eyes, it was a very comforting feeling to her. Maybe she was right. Her emotions at ease, Xiaoyu decided to take in a short nap.

***********************

His hands full with grocery bags, Hwoarang pounded on the door to the apartment with his knee. “Jin!!! KAZAMA!!!!” he screamed. “Open the fucking door man! My hands are full and I can’t reach my keys!” The Korean knocked on the door again with his knee. Jin was usually so responsive. Hwoarang, fuming, dropped the paper bags to the floor to reach inside his pocket for his copy of house keys. Kicking the door open with his foot, Hwoarang stepped inside the apartment, only to find that his lover was lying on the floor face down.

He merely thought Jin was playing a joke on him. “Jin. Nice try but you know you can’t fool the Joke Master. Get your hot ass over here and help me put the groceries away.” said Hwoarang to the unresponsive Kazama. “C’mon Jin. Get your ass up!” called the redhead. It was like talking to a wall. ‘Man...I know he’s just trying to play a joke. He’s patient enough...’ But when the Blood Talon walked over to his lover on the floor, he quickly realized that Jin’s stunt was no joke. Hwoarang picked him up, and found that his entire body was limp.“Holy shit. Jin? Jin, it’s me, Hwoarang. Wake up....” asked the Korean. He shook Jin, still trying to get through. “C’mon Kazama, snap out of it!” He was met with silence.

The redhead gave Jin another little shake, and called for him again. “Jin! Come on Jin, please wake up?” said the Korean. With one hand cupping his lover’s cheek, Hwoarang gave a little sigh of little relief; Jin was still warm. ‘Great, he’s still warm...but what the fuck am I supposed to do? Damn it. My bike is running low on fuel, and Jin’s car is in the shop, I’ve got no way to get anywhere! I knew I should have filled up before I came home!’ Hwoarang said to himself, sweating. There weren’t many times when he felt despair, and unfortunately for him, this was one of those rare times.

Even though he wasn’t sure what he was to do, Hwoarang knew he had to do *something* Wake up Jin, take him to the emergency room...something. But just trying to get Jin up off the floor and into his arms was a task in itself. Jin was quite heavy. ‘When you come around...no more cookies for you.’ smiled Hwoarang. He was able to lay Jin down on the couch while he fetched a blanket from the linen closet to cover him with. Returning, the Korean slowly draped it over Kazama’s still body. While doing so, he couldn’t help but notice that his lover had a little bump in his mid-section. ‘Where’d that come from? Maybe it’s been there, and I just now noticed it?’ wondered Hwoarang as he covered Jin with a soft red blanket.

‘I guess I have no choice but to take him to the hospital...maybe they could figure out what that bump of his is....’ Hwoarang said to himself, his eyes glued to that mystery that had grown into his lover’s skin. ‘It’ll be tough as fuck, but I can’t just stand here with my finger up my ass.‘ Hwoarang didn't dwell on it for very long before running off to find his motorcycle keys. 'Too bad I had to fuck up Jin's car. That would have been a lot easier than hauling him on my bike' was Hwoarang's final thought as he flung Jin over his shoulder and ran out the door.

Xiaoyu glanced around as she got off the plane. She felt a bit weird being amongst all these Japanese folks, but decided it wasn't really something to dwell on considering she went to *school* in Japan for a few years. "Ohhh, I hope Jinny is alright" she said aloud before jogging off to find a cab. Luck seemed to be on her side at that particular moment as she conveniently spotted one lounging out in front of the revolving doors from which she had just sprinted. Latching onto the door, before anyone else could "steal" it from her, she hopped in, told the driver in Japanese where to go, and they sped off.

Hwoarang had set Jin down on the pavement as he tried to figure out just *how* he was going to set Jin on his bike. He had a hand on his hip and one stroking his chin thoughtfully as he pondered some ideas on the situation. Suddenly, a particularly nice solution popped into his head; he grinned lecherously and scooped Jin up off the sidewalk. He set the Japanese man down carefully on the riding seat, with his legs on either side, and hopped on behind him.

Jin couldn't have picked a better time to pass out. Hwoarang looked at his watch and noticed it was the five 'o clock rush hour in which the streets would be congested with bumper to bumper traffic. The Korean, however, considered himself to be lucky due to the fact that he had his motorcycle and could easily drive in between the traffic. Before he did so, he gazed around for an opening big enough for his motorbike to fit through. "Fuck." he said aloud. Traffic on this night was so bad that he wasn't even able to find a spot big enough to drive through. "Of course..." He smiled to himself, spotting the sidewalk. Just when he was about to break the law for the millionth time, "Hwoarang? Hwoarang what are you doing here? Where's Jin?" could be heard behind him in a high pitched voice. Hwoarang looked over his shoulder to see Ling nearly hanging out of the cab window, waving at him frantically. But the redhead stayed silent and gave her a dirty look. "Crap. What's *she* doing here?" The Korean revved his motorcycle's engine. It was now or never. Snickering, he took off down the populated sidewalk and turned into a wide alleyway.

"What in the world is he doing?" Xiao remarked from inside the cab. "Follow that motorbike!" she exclaimed with a rush of urgency. Her thoughts immediately turned to Jin being kidnaped by that no good street punk. "I can’t lady." said the driver kindly. "Do it! My boyfriend is with that man on the bike! He's being kidnaped!" Ling replied, nearly ready to take control herself if the driver did not.

The driver decided to take pity on the obviously distressed girl and took a left into the alleyway that led into the lesser used driving district of town. It was lesser used because gangs and street punks typically hung around that area, but if the girl wanted to save her boyfriend, who was he to really say no? Hwoarang glanced behind him as he cruised down the sidewalk, prize sitting in front of him. He heaved a sigh of relief as he noticed the taxi wasn't anywhere in sight. The red-head figured that Xiaoyu probably told the driver to go to Jin's place... maybe... Hwoarang wasn't sure if she was trying to be sneaky and follow him to a point where he couldn't see her or if she actually gave up. He picked the former, assuming his street senses weren't lying to him (not that they ever really had before). Living on the streets all those years made Hwoarang rather wise in this regard.

He shrugged and figured 'if she's after me, let her come, not like I can't take her on anyway' and kept a steady pace toward the hospital, which was in plain sight right up ahead.

The Blood Talon slowed to a stop right in front of the building doors, and kicked the stand on his bike down so his precious vehicle wouldn't fall over. He flung a leg over the left side, followed by the other and grabbed Jin from where he had been resting the whole time. Slinging the shorter, but heavier male over his shoulder once again, he made his way into the building.

Taxi Dude, as Xiaoyu had dubbed him, seemed to know where he was going, but she didn't have a clue as to where they were headed. The man had a grin on his face as he slowed to a halt in front of the hospital... where she happened to spot Hwoarang's motorcycle! "Wha? Just how did you know he would be here?" she asked, surprise evident on her face. The driver just glance back at her in his rearview mirror and said "Girly, I know my way around this town, and judging by what I could see of that wrapped up bundle in his arms, that dude didn't look so good." Ling sat there in awe at how such a seemingly smart man got stuck as a taxi driver.

"Thank you SO much sir! Here, here's your money! I even left a little bit extra as a tip... thanks!" Xiaoyu squealed as she nearly flew out the back passenger door. The driver opened his window and screamed out a quick "thank you, lady!" as he sped off into parts unknown.

The sight of a Korean man holding a Japanese man wrapped in a red blanket was enough for a nurse at the admission desk to hurriedly waddle her way over to the attractive young Korean man. "My goodness! Sir, what's the problem?" she asked. "I found my friend here passed out on the floor of our apartment. Can you get somebody here to take a look at him?" Hwoarang replied calmly. "Yes of course, right away!" said the forty-ish nurse and hurried back to the desk to alert a doctor. Almost immediately, a female doctor and a nurse came from the nearby elevator with a stretcher. "Lay him down here." instructed the doctor. Hwoarang did so and vowed, "you better not hurt him otherwise I'll make you glad your already in a hospital." as he kept up with the doctor and her assistant.

The doctor just shrugged off what the red-head said and hauled her patient as quickly, and carefully, as she could to an appropriate room. After all, she had to put up with comments like that on a near daily basis, and was used to such things by now. Hwoarang hustled after the two hospital freaks, as he thought that's what they pretty much were, to make sure they didn't start sticking needles all over Jin, or do some other weird shit like that.

Hwoarang had a difficult time understanding all the medical mumbo-jumbo being exchanged between the doctor and nurse. Perhaps he should say something? "Hey! Would you mind telling me in human terms what the hell your saying?" he asked, trying to be patient. "Sir please. Calm down." said the doctor while hooking Jin up to a monitor of some sort. The nurse was trying to wake him with smelling salts. "No I won't calm down. Now what the hell are you doing to him?" asked Hwoarang, followed by a string of obscenities. Finally proving too difficult, Hwoarang was asked to leave the room, and did so...in his usual hot-headed tantrum.

Hwoarang crossed his arms with a glare as he walked out the door, slamming it shut in a rage. Not one to be deterred from something that was important to him, he quickly turned around and started listening through the door. Not being able to quite decipher what was being said, the Korean held up a hand to shell around his ear to block out any surround sound that might be interfering with his hearing. Needless to say, the Korean was more than pissed when all he heard was the doctor and her nurse talking more medical bullshit:

"Physically, there seems to be nothing wrong with him. I suspect that there may be an anamoly inside, something we can't see with just our eyes."

"Perhaps. What do you suggest doctor?"

"A blood and urine analysis. I think it would also be wise if he be kept for observation. I'd like to run some tests in that time."

Was just some of the things Hwoarang could make out on the other side. He thought he felt his heart stop for a minute. ‘No way in hell!’ he said to himself and bit his lip to keep from breaking the door down.

Instead, he decided to listen in some more, thinking it would give him a chance to cool off. An EKG. Ultrasound. CAT scan. Those were just some of the things he could hear the doctor talking about doing to his lover. Then, he could make out a strong, deep Japanese voice. "Jin!" Hwoarang said aloud, unable to contain himself. He kicked in the door with his boot. "Jin! Are you ok?" asked the Korean, wide-eyed. Kazama just stared at his lover with a blank stare. He looked a little groggy. At Jin's side, the Korean wrapped his arms around him and kissed his forehead. "Don't you do that to me again." Hwoarang laughed nervously. "I don't know what happened. I was talking to Ling, and then I just remember feeling lightheaded. I'm ok now, but my stomach hurts." Jin's comment made Hwoarang think back to when he spotted that weird-looking bump in his lover's mid-section, and decided to ask about it. "Instead of bullshitting doctor, why don't you just tell us what this is." The redhead gestured at and poked Jin's bump. They were both met with an awkward silence.

The doctors looked down at the odd bump in Jin's stomach. "Goodness, we didn't see this." remarked the female doctor. She asked the nurse to fetch the ultrasound machine. "Let's just have a peek in there." a cool gel splurged across Jin's conditioned body, and sent a chill up his spine. "We *might* have an idea of what it is but, we'd just like to make sure." An image appeared on the monitor. Although black and white, it was clear enough to see that there was definitely something in there that was calling Jin Kazama's belly home. But when everyone looked closer at the image, there looked to be two somethings that were calling his belly home. "The fuck? How the hell did you get tadpoles in your stomach Jin?" asked Hwoarang. Jin kept a straight face. "This makes sense now. Mr....Kazama is it? Somehow, you've gotten yourself pregnant." concluded the doctor.

Jin just raised an eyebrow at the woman as if she were completely insane. "Pregnant?" he muttered as he started to feel light-headed once again. Hwoarang, meanwhile, couldn't help but speak a bit more forcefully on the matter. "WHAT?! MEN CAN'T GET PREGNANT!" The Japanese male couldn't help but wince at the loud voice of his boyfriend. His senses seemed to have sharpened lately and he wasn't sure why that occurred. Nevertheless, Hwoarang's voice was really grating on his overly-sensitive ears. Jin decided he'd better intervene before the red-head spouted off more loudmouthed questions. "He has a point, I don't see how what you are saying is possible." Jin stated with a surprisingly calm air about him.

The doctor coughed slightly before continuing. "It appears that you *are* indeed pregnant, sir. You see these?" The woman pointed to both "tadpoles", as the red-head male had called them. "Those clearly show that you have the capacity to bear children. How that is possible... we are not sure, but it *is* possible." the doctor concluded.

Hwoarang sat there with a look of complete horror on his face. Jin, on the other hand, wasn't fairing much better at this point. He didn't actually *believe* the woman at first, but after seeing the ultrasound results and listening to her explanation... he was feeling a bit wary to say the least. Somehow, he'd went from not knowing what was wrong with him this morning to wishing he never found out what was wrong right now, some hours later. What was he to do?

Without so much as another word, Jin's eye twitched right before he fainted again.

A/N: This chapter marks the debut of my friend and writing partner, our very own fuma_x_seishiro! Thank you for teaming up with me.

Chapter II: Change of Plans
***************

Aside from spending time with Jin in the form of intimate company and sparring, and listening to rock music, Hwoarang loved riding his motorbike. He was given a certain, freedom when he rode that nothing else could even give him, and felt the wind whip through his hair, or got the occasional bug stuck between his teeth. Feeling the motor vibrate between his legs, hearing her smooth acceleration, the unmistakable smell of gasoline, the way his heart would race with every revving of the motor. There was certainly nothing like it in the world to him.

Nothing yet, anyway.

Even though it was fact that he and Jin were romantically involved and had been living together for a couple months now, they never did anything much higher than dry humping. And even that was few and far between. Hwoarang would blame Jin for the most part as the reason why they hadn’t had sex yet. But it was merely a cover for the Blood Talon. Because while he would never, ever admit it to anybody, he was secretly a little frightened about having sex with another man – back in Korea, he had a reputation for being a total ladies man. And his encounters, seemingly limitless, were legendary. On even his worse day, when he was feeling like total shit, he would bang at least five girls in a single day!

And none of those encounters, save for one, never truly meant anything to him or the hooker. It was just another day and another dollar to them, and nothing but a cheap screw for Hwoarang. Another notch on his bedpost. After awhile, he grew tedious of the same thing every night and waking up alone the next morning. It made him feel empty and like a tool. Perhaps that was why it was such a shock to him when elusive little Jin Kazama confessed to him one night that he was in love with him, and wanted him to move in; nobody ever showed the Blood Talon that they really, truly, cared for him like the way Jin did. Sure, his buddies held close ties to him, but it was more in a brotherly way. What he heard from Jin that night was full of true emotion and sincerity.

That night, for the first time in his life, Hwoarang felt like he actually had some real purpose in life, felt as though he had something to live for. That he would wake up the next morning and find that his bed wasn’t empty and cold, but warm and full.

As he rode down a crowded city street, Hwoarang thought about ways he could tell Jin that he was ready for that next big step in their relationship. He was never good with dealing out the romantic things, but he did try his best. But tonight...tonight was going to be special, and he knew he would have to try harder than just his best. Ihe tried to remember the things Jin liked, or what Hwoarang thought he liked, and came up with silk, candles and soft music. And before, they could take a little walk in the park, just as the sun started to set. Or maybe he could take Jin out sailing. The possibilities were endless and while the old Hwoarang would have expressed his opinion on it in a myriad of dirty words, the new Hwoarang was actually looking forward to spending a romantic evening with his special one.

On his journey to find his romantic alter ego, Hwoarang was able to buy the necessities and more, much more. Aside from purchasing the candles, a cd, a bottle of wine and a couple green silk shirts, Hwoarang also purchased what he thought would be the cherry atop this sundae of romance...a sterling silver ring of some sort. He took good care in keeping it hidden by stuffing it into his leather jacket pocket before entering their apartment. There, laying on the couch was Jin, with a hot bowl of soup on the table next to him.

Jin had tears starting to well in his eyes as Hwoarang dropped the bag of goodies behind the sofa. Jin's tears turned to full-out sobbing. There was a oommercial on the television. "The fuck? Why you cryin' princess?" teased Hwoarang with a grin. "So...sad." sniffled Jin, "All these children are poor, and nobody cares about them." Hwoarang glanced at the television."Bah! No they’re not. These commercials are bullshit. These scam organizations only make these commercials to make money. You can stop crying." replied Hwoarang.

Jin pointed towards the television with tears streaming down his face. Hwoarang decided to have a seat next to Jin on the floor. "C'mon man, enough with the water works. Why you getting so sad over a dumb commercial?" asked the Blood Talon. "I...don't...know." said Jin, trying to breathe. Hwoarang, uncomfortable, decided to stand up instead. A sour taste lingered in his mouth, seeing that Jin had the whole nine yards going -- tears, snots, everything, and decided to fetch him a tissue from the bathroom. "Here. if your going to sob like a pussy, at least blow your nose. It's not becoming of you." Jin stayed quiet.

Hwoarang returned with said item and handed it to Jin. The dark-haired man took it without much thought and wiped his eyes before cleaning up the mess he had made all over his face. He glanced at Hwoarang before throwing the item in the wastebasket next to the couch. Almost like a lightswitch, Jin became his normal "stoic" self with his arms crossed with the perfect severe facial features that Hwoarang was always so fond of in all the years he had known him.

The Japanese male then gave Hwoarang a hard look. "I don't get it. Something seems to be wrong with me, but for the last 2 and a half months I haven't been able to put a finger on just what that something could possibly be..." He trailed off as he began to head for the kitchen. Food was calling him, and of course, he had no idea as to *why*... he just knew he was hungry, and wanted a bite to eat.

Right about now, he would eat just about anything, but after digging through the cupboards, Jin helped himself to Hwoarang's secret stash of chocolate chip cookies. "What the hell? You just ate damn it! And my cookies..." Hwoarang's voice trailed off, hinted with anger. The sight of seeing his lover pigging out on cookies, regardless if they were his, just seemed too good to miss. Jin was just standing there, stuffing his face with two cookies at a time, acting like he hadn't eaten all day!

Hwoarang decided that he'd better go to the grocery store, as much as he *hated* being seen in places like that, and get more food to stock the fridge. Jin didn't seem to be slowing down any, and at this rate, he'd eat them out of health and home. 'Is he gonna get fat from all that?' Hwoarang couldn't help but be amused as the thought of Jin looking like Ganryu, but then immediately pushed the thought aside considering he wanted to have sex with Jin ...and overly fat Jin wouldn't be too appealing. No, he liked his partners to be somewhat in shape; to be expected since he was a top-notch martial artist

"I'm going to the store. When I get back, I'm hiding those damn things from you Jin!" Hwoarang stormed out of the house, hopped on his bike, and headed to the grocery store.

Hwoarang hated grocery shopping. Jin was usually the one who took care of it. But, on the plus side, Hwoarang looked forward to buying some of *his* favorites for once. "Shit, that's right. I live with Jin the Insatiable...gotta hide the goods." the Korean pulled a shopping cart out from the row and headed towards the produce area. There, he picked up a big bag of carrots, some tomatoes and celery, and some lettuce when he caught a glimpse some cucumbers. Instantly, perverted thoughts entered his mind. ‘I wonder if Jin's is that big?’ he thought, having unknowingly picked up one. It was all wet and ripe. Fresh. ‘This is exactly why I never buy groceries!’ he screamed to himself. Taking a plastic bag, he dropped a few of the vegetables into it and placed it in his cart.

Meanwhile, back at the house, Jin was rummaging through the cabinets again, still hungry. It was like something possessed him and forced him to binge on food he usually considered unhealthy. Unhealthy it may have been, but to the Japanese youth, right now it was absolutely delicious.

Jin finally left the comforts of the kitchen for the cushiony softness of his and Hwoarang's bed. As he laid there, he unconsciously began to rub his stomach. 'I wonder how long Hwoarang is going to take?' He let out a short laugh knowing how Hwoarang was when it came to shopping. 'I have a feeling he's being a pervert. He always seems to do that when we're shopping together.’ Jin fondly recalled an incident that occurred not more than a month ago. Him and his lover were both looking for a birthday card to send Anna that they thought she would enjoy. Hwoarang, being the guy that he was, opted to check out cakes and let Jin do "the dirty work." Not long after, Hwoarang returned with a cake with a penis drawn in the frosting, laughing his head off.

The recollection made Jin laugh. Hwoarang could, and would usually be a perv whenever he got the chance. Sometimes, he'd say something nasty in public, and would embarrass his lover, but over time, he got used to Hwoarang's randomness and his perversion, and really thought it to be quite funny. He laid there, seeming to recall another memory in which Ling was ill, and Jin decided to get her a Get Well card. He picked one, Hwoarang picked another. It said Here's hoping that you Get Up in time. On the inside, a big penis was on it. "Say the card's from you Jin. That way, she'll always have you to jack off with!" Hwoarang remarked. Jin ended up giving the card to Ling. 'funny enough,’ said Jin to himself, 'she actually liked it quite a bit.’ Feeling tired suddenly, Kazama flopped over to one side and went to sleep.

Back at the grocery store, Hwoarang was busy stringing together obscenities at an employee in the deli, who’d already gotten his order wrong two times. But it wasn’t hard to set him off. “No! Damn it! I wanted a pound of roast beef and half a pound of turkey! R-O-A-S-T B-E-E-F and T-U-R-K-E-Y, you fucking moron!” The employee, a teenage girl, pointed to the fresh cuts of meat under glass. “Yes! That one, and that one” pointed Hwoarang. He was given his roast beef and turkey, and sighed heavily as he left the Deli center.

Just for kicks, he went for a stroll down the aisle he affectionately called Lube and Screw, and stopped at the huge rank of condoms. ‘Better get some of these, knowing Jin...but how the fuck am I supposed to know how big his dick is? I would like to think that I’d have the bigger one but...’ Hwoarang’s conversation with himself faded into the back of his mind as he started to remember all those times Jin would come out of the shower, or had a tight pair of jeans on and he would notice the bulge underneath. It was like some source of hypnotics – Hwoarang would just look at his lovers crotch. Shaking his head, Hwoarang picked out a random box and moved down the aisle.

Jin woke up feeling surprisingly refreshed for once, even if it *had* only been a short nap. He looked over to the alarm clock that was on top of the dresser next to the bed and raised an eyebrow. "Hm, Hwoarang should have been home by now. I hope he's alright." As the raven-haired fighter said this, he got up and headed for the telephone in the living room. He wasn't much of an extrovert, but every now and then, it felt nice to talk to someone *other* than Hwoarang. He picked up the receiver and dialed, the number practically ingrained into his mind. A few rings later and a perky "Hello?!" could be heard from the other end. Jin often wondered if she was naturally that hyper or if she had a secret stash of sweets somewhere; kind of like Hwoarang and his cookies.

"Hi Ling," said Jin. She practically cried his name on the other line, sounding ecstatic, like she always was whenever he called. "Jinny! It's good to hear from you again!" Ling replied. "How are things with you?" asked Kazama, showing his concern. "Good, good. Even better now that I hear your voice again. Are you doing ok?" Jin was quiet for a minute, as he gazed pensively at his upset stomach. "...Yes....I guess so..." Jin finally said, suddenly feeling a little light-headed. He was hoping Ling couldn't detect the malaise in his voice. "Are you sure? Jin? Jinny? Hello?" replied Xiaoyu, greeted to sudden silence on the other line.

Jin was unconscious.

Okie dokie, over at Tekken Zaibatsu, in the Fan Fiction Depot, I posted a topic about my thoughts on the JinxHwoa pairing, and marked it as Yaoi. But you think those dumbasses noticed it? Course not! I'm pissed because the people who replied to it have NO IMAGINATION and decide to just "Live By the Book" when it comes to Tekken. Somebody on there told me I should pay attention to the "facts" about Hwoa. In fan-fiction, facts don't mean shit. People write a pairing a certain way because THEY WANT TO, not to keep in line with facts. Some people on there told me that Hwoa isn't the type who would be a homosexual. Well, neither does Heero Yuy of Gundam Wing, and yet there's TONS of fiction out there with him and Duo as the pairing. Neither does Trowa, but people like the TrowaxQuatre pairing.

I'm sorry for ranting, but stupid people piss me off. I absolutely CANNOT stand people who are narrow-minded and have no imagination.

Next time I won't bother marking my shit since people don't bother to pay attention anyway. Here's the link to the thread if you guys would like to look at it:

********************

Chapter I – Coffee and Pepto Bismol

Jin Kazama wasn’t a party animal by any means. Nor was he was heavy drinker, only occasionally treating himself to a beer when the need arose. And yet, for the past few weeks or so, he could have very well called the bathroom, and more importantly the toilet, his best friend. Being sick from a hangover was usually Hwoarang’s department, not his. And perhaps the weirdest thing to Jin was the fact that he didn’t recall having any copious amounts of alcohol recently. But he had been so sick lately that he very well may have did just that!

Maybe laying down would ease his upset stomach. Jin couldn’t help but to spit at that thought; he’d practically lost count of how many times he’d gone back and forth between his bed and the bathroom, but decided that it couldn’t hurt to lay down, close his eyes, and maybe try to sleep whatever this was off. Today was not his lucky day, however, because just as he was starting to get comfortable, he could hear the door burst open and Hwoarang’s loud rock music blaring on the same cd player he was hardly ever seen without. Groaning, Jin flopped over to his left side and covered his head with his pillow in hopes of smothering himself.

Behind Jin and standing in the doorway to their bedroom was the Blood Talon himself, convulsing in a wild fit of passion for the current hard rock tune drowning his hearing. He could be heard singing along rather unharmoniously and banging on the walls with the beat of the drums. Jin swallowed hard, his attempt at killing himself wasn’t going as planned, no matter how hard he tried. Finally tiring of all the noise, he sat up and shot Hwoarang a look that could have very well made his little cd player explode. The Korean turned his music down and off, noticing his antics had touched a nerve with the ailing Kazama.

“In case you haven’t noticed Hwoarang, I’ve been puking my brains out for the past few weeks. And your really not helping me with all that racket. Why don’t you go out and ride your motorcycle for a little while? The fresh air is good for you.” Jin explained. Hwoarang suddenly felt a sliver of guilt tear through him as he looked at his lover’s run-down appearance. In truth, he really hadn’t payed any mind to Jin’s sudden bout of stomach flu lately, and was just now actually seeing what poor health his partner was in. His face was deathly pale, his eyes were heavy, his lips looked parched. Jin really did look like shit. The Korean approached his lover and took a seat next to him on the bed.

“You’d better not get too close to me Hwoarang.” said Jin tiredly.

The Blood Talon, true to his rebellious nature, did not acknowledge his lover’s warning, and put his arm around Kazama. “A little fucking illness isn’t going to keep me from kissin’ you Kazama. Now come here and put a little effort into it!”

Without a moment to think or protest Hwoarang’s offer, Jin felt his lover’s lips against his own as they trembled. His entire body trembled, having been wracked by the stomach flu for a couple weeks. But it felt good to Jin to feel contact with something other than the toilet for once.

“Feel better?” said Hwoarang.

“Not really. Though, it feels good to have my arms around something other than the toilet for once.” chuckled Jin nervously.

“Why don’t we go out somewhere? Maybe some fresh air will do us both some good. We could go to that café down the street. Besides, you look like you could use a little caffeine in your system; you look like some rundown fucking bum.” Hwoarang couldn’t help but laugh at his lover’s expense.

“That sounds nice. Funny you should mention my appearance; I feel exactly like what you described.”

“Cool. We can take my motorbike if you think you can take it.”

“Ok”

Hwoarang headed for the doorway, but looked over his shoulder. “Are we–“ he stammered.

“Only if you think your ego can take the rude remarks and staring, Hwoarang. I’m perfectly comfortable with my sexuality. But are you?” asked Jin inquisitively while changing into his warm and comfortable blue sweatsuit. The question sounded more like a dare to Hwoarang, who was still having to contend with his ego over the fact that he and Jin were lovers. In the big scheme of things, Hwoarang really had nothing to worry about, his buddies were all back in Korea. And it wasn’t that he didn’t like being seen holding hands with Jin...it was the cruel remarks and staring that he didn’t like.

Being called a faggot or homo. The looks he and his lover would get when they did a simple thing like walk down the street or while they were in a store, or restaurant. It was like the people around him were afraid of catching something, or were afraid that if they showed any interest in something like conversing with Hwoarang while Jin was around, they would in turn become gay themselves.

After a while, it really started to bug the Blood Talon. He just couldn’t understand why people looked down at him when he was with Jin. He loved Jin, why couldn’t anybody accept that and leave it be? Hwoarang would often ask himself this many times at night while he was in bed, with his lover sleeping peacefully next to him.

Fuck them he thought to himself while gazing at Jin tying his sneakers. Why should I suffer just for loving somebody? “Fuck those stupid gay-bashin bastards. Jin, let’s go for it; I’m tired of this shit. You and I shouldn’t have to hide who we are just because other people can’t deal with it!” Hwoarang said somewhat proudly and full of confidence.

Jin smiled warmly. “Right. What’s with the sudden change?” he asked, meeting his lover in the bedroom doorway.

“I’m just tired of dealing with all the bullshit everytime we go out somewhere. We can’t go somewhere without hearing someone call us faggots.”

“You just have to block them out is all. C’mon, let’s go.”

His cup of hot coffee felt good against his chilled hands. The liquid felt good against his throat as he sipped at it. Kazama looked down at the blueberry muffin that came with his coffee, and wondered if he was feeling well enough to eat it. Even if he wasn’t, however, he would gladly take the risk; it looked fresh, smelled absolutely delicious and tempted him from the napkin it was on. And lately, it was very rare that he left any food to waste. He ate like he’d never ever had a meal before. Deciding to tempt fate, he picked up the muffin, unwrapped it, and took a big bite out of it.

“Good to see you got your appetite back. Though, you couldn’t tell your sick by the way you’ve been eating lately. Can’t leave you alone with food for a minute, Kazama. Is your inner devil starving or something?” Hwoarang chuckled, but was firmly corrected by his lover with a disapproving glance. “Oops. Sorry Jin. Just curious that’s all.” the Korean went back to drinking his warm beverage.

“Damn it, not again.” said Jin with a wince. He rubbed the side of his head gently, but knew that in a few hours his head would be throbbing. On top of his increased appetite and throwing up, Jin suffered from bad headaches. It was a miracle that he wasn’t a headache pill addict he’d pop them like they were candy.

“Again? Shit that’s like the fourth time you’ve had a bad headache in three weeks. Plus you’ve been popping those damn pills like their fucking candy. What the hell is going on Jin?”

He was practically on his knees by now, begging for the pain to stop. The other patrons in the café looked at him like he was a freak. “How the...hell should I know? This whole thing happened so suddenly...I feel sick...” The ill Japanese youth quickly headed for the mens room, leaving Hwoarang to pick up the tab.

Jin was lucky enough to make it to the restroom sink before he threw up rather violently. The violent force of vomiting only made his head pound more until it felt like it would explode and splatter his brain all over the tile walls. Right about now, as his loud, guttural, animal-like noises filled the restroom, Jin prayed to god that no one came in on him during his time of embarrassment. Keeping up with his continued streak of bad luck, a man entered the bathroom and gave the sick Japanese boy a quizzical look through the mirror, then stationed himself at a nearby urinal.

When Jin returned, Hwoarang was quick with the questions. “Did you puke again?”

Jin took a napkin to the corner of his mouth and stuffed it in one of his jacket pockets. “I feel like I just puked my stomach up. Sorry to have ruined everything Hwoarang but, I’d really like to go back home and lay down.”

“Sure man. You don’t look too good either. I already payed the tab so we can go ahead and bolt.”

Hwoarang was first to jump on his motorbike and made sure Jin had enough room. He was slow to get on the bike, holding his stomach as he did so, and covered himself with the hood of his jacket. “One thing before we leave. Try not to puke on me ok Jin? I’ll go slow and avoid bumps.”

Like a cranky tired baby in a car, the sound of Hwoarang’s bike and the gentle motion calmed Jin enough to sleep. And when he woke up, he hoped, this whole illness would be gone and he could get back to doing the things he loved.
