The Peak

Chapter 1: The Dominum Brothers

The Dominum Family, a family of great fighters. The Dominum family is considered to be one of the strongest line of fighters along with the Van Halen family, the Sebastian family, and the Nickel family. Cerilius Dominum was one of the founders of the Street Fighters Rankings, and one of the legendary 4 Masters. He is the father of Horilus Dominum, a former SF 1 and hailed as the strongest street fighter in history. Horilus had three sons; Figorus Dominum, Rigolus Dominum, and Accendus Dominum.

The story begins with the three orphaned brothers, raised in an orphanage of martial arts. Figorus Dominum, the eldest, was already a gifted fighter at an early age. When Figorus was 15 years old, he already had an orange aura, with a battle index of 8,000 points. At that age, Figorus was still not allowed to rank up on the Street Fighter Rankings, he was still registered as underage. Figuros was stubborn, yet a fair figther, and a kind brother to his two younger brothers.

Rigolus Dominum, the second brother, was also a gifted fighter. Both of them always train hard and smart. On the 13th birthday of Rigolus, he and Figorus went to a river for a swim, leaving a sleeping Accendus behind. While the brothers were enjoying their swim, a group of boys came to them and started an argument saying that the river is their turf and anyone outside their group is considered an enemy.

The leader of the group was the SF 4, Elias Truth, 18 years old with a battle index of 8,000 points. Elias and his group of seven fighters, started picking on the young Rigolus. Rigolus was scared because he had not released his aura and battle index limit yet. Figorus immediately went to talk it out peacefully first.

" Hey ! we are just kids, we did not know this is your turf, we will leave !" Figorus yelled. Elias looks at Figorus, " Well what do we have here, isn't it the wonder boy, Figorus Dominum, haha! don't think that I would be intimidated by your name boy, you are weak." he mockingly said to Figurus. One of Elias's underfighter said, "Get him Elias !". Figorus grabs Rigolus and stands in front of him, "Look guys, I know who you are, and I know you, Elias, SF 4, you pick on kids now ?" he said. "Well let's just see how strong a Dominum is. Listen all ! No one is to interfere!" Elias told his friends..

Figorus turns to Rigolus, " Rigolus, stay there do not move, you understand ?" Turns back to Elias, "Look guys, we are going to leave, we do not want to fight." Rigolus pulls his brother's sleeve, " Why won't we fight them brother, you're strong right ?" Rigolus said. " This situation is not a fair duel, we are not at the right age to fight them yet, and picking on underage fighters is breaking an unwritten rule on the SF Rankings, this is just bullying " explains Figorus.

"But brother, you can beat them ! You can beat them, why not fight?" Rigolus replied. Figorus looks at Rigolus in his eyes, "Listen Rigolus, sometimes, it's better to be safe than prove your strength. When we reach the right age, we will be able to fight them, but I think not now. Plus, Accendus is probably looking for us right now, he'll get jealous again."

" This is a waste of time !" Elias said, " boys get the kid ! I'll fight Dominum". He ordered his friends to surround the brothers. "You know our fathers were once on the top of the SF Rankings, and he always told me that your father was a swine and not a fair fighter, so that's why he died eh! deserves it!", Elias mockingly laughs.

" Don't you dare talk about my father !" Figorus angrily shouted. Elias replied "Ow yeah ? What are you going to do about it ? Dominum". Elias is provoking Figorus. Elias's underfighters started to hurt Rigolus. Rigolus grunts in pain. Figorus screams "Stop this Elias! You dare hurt my brother in front of me ! you will pay for this !". Figorus gets serious.

And so the fight began, Figorus tried to save his brother first, but Elias won't let him get close to Rigolus. "You're not going anywhere Dominum!" Elias said. Figorus yelled to his brother telling him to run! However, Rigolus is scared and hides under a tree root where Elias's boys can't reach him. Sam, a friend of Elias, is the current SF 10, told the others to just let go of the young Rigolus for a meantime and focus on supporting Elias in his fight with Figorus.
