Afterwards: The Fourth Tekken Novel

Agreement

Heihachi frowned as he watched them leave. The rest of the Getanha was his to keep. He wasn't sure if it was a good idea to go with them on that vacation, seeing how they didn't even tell Kazuya or Jin about it. Wouldn't it be chaotic?
But then he remembered what his older self had said.
Remember, you were created to do what I didn't get to. Keep that in mind.
Is this what he meant by that? That he should try to reconcile with the rest of his family? But is that something possible? Are they really willing to accept him? Heihachi knew that Jun would, seeing how she had even come to invite him, but her own clone didn't like the idea. Then again, that might just be Kazuya's genes talking.
Jin didn't in the least seem to want him around, but Heihachi wasn't sure about Lars. He didn't speak much to him, but it was clear that he didn't really like his presence. And then there was Lee.
He didn't seem very happy to see Heihachi loitering about like this, even defending his adoptive brother. Heihachi frowned, that bit was still a little hard to process. Lee never once came Kazuya's rescue when they were children. If anything, he actually seemed scared of Heihachi whenever he would punish Kazuya. That was another question, is Lee coming along as well?
Heihachi retreated into his house and looked at Jun's card. She had her number on it, together with her social media usernames so that she can be contacted. He took his phone out and saved her number before messaging her.
Decide on where you're going and I'll be there

Jun perked up as she looked at the message from Heihachi and nudged Shasha, who had been peacefully reading a book in a moving car.
"He replied!" Jun beamed. "And he says he's coming!"
Shasha sighed. "Joy. Now how are you gonna deal with him and your husband being under the same roof?"
Jun smirked. "Easy. By having him share a room with Lars and Jin."
"And how will you do that?" Steve piped up from the front passenger seat. "Wouldn't your son bite his head off?"
Jun frowned, realising that that was a possibility. She sighed and turned to Amber. "Will you share a room with him?"
Amber grimaced. "Oneesan! That means you want me to sleep in a same room with him." She quickly clapped a hand over her mouth as she smothered a retch.
Jun gasped and started looking around for a paper bag, eventually having the driver stop the car so that Amber can let it out. Steve and Shasha watched the scene unfold in surprise.
"You don't see that every day," Steve remarked, watching as Jun held Amber's hair back.
"Forget plotting Heihachi to stay with Jin and Kazuya, you guys have to find a way for Amber!" Shasha said. "You okay?" She asked when Amber finally stopped.
Amber took a deep breath and nodded. Her gaze fell on the puddle she had created. "Should we wash that?"
"No, now you wash your mouth," Jun said as she took the bottle from Steve and pulled Amber's hand, then placed it on the water bottle. "Amber, we are in the middle of nowhere. And you barfed in a drain too. That's not too bad, the rain would wash it away."
Amber burped before bringing the bottle towards her mouth, chugging some water before lowering it again. "We can at least wash the grate?"
Jun sighed and took the bottle from her, pouring some on the drain before handing it back to her.
Shasha dug in her bag and pulled out a sweet. "Amber, nah. Take this. It will refresh your breath."
Amber quietly took it as the four of them walked back to the car. "Don't ever suggest such a thing again, you hear?!" She exclaimed, her voice hoarse from what she had just done.
Jun rubbed her back, nodding. "Okay, okay. I won't. I'll have him stay with Lee instead."
Steve groaned. "Auntie, come on. You do know that Uncle Lee has the same amount of hatred for Heihachi as your hubby, right?"
"He's got a point," Shasha added, nodding as she turned to Jun. "Did you even think of this?"
Jun sheepishly shook her head. "No..."
Steve, sighed and shook his head. "Okay, how about this. We still have one more option."
"And what would that be?" Amber frowned, hoping that his one more option wouldn't have anything to do with her.
Steve smirked. "Well, it's a funny thought, but I'm not a hundred percent sure it's gonna work."

"What?!" Adam exclaimed so loudly that the crows resting on the window ledge flew off in a hurry. "Steve! No! This is so not a good idea!"
"Keep it down," Steve said in a low voice.
Nina nodded, a slight frown on her face. "He's right, Steve. Think about it, it's Heihachi, not Shasha, you, or Anna. It's Heihachi. A walking weapon of mass destruction."
"And that's psychological destruction, by the way," Adam added. "Bloke even managed to successfully traumatise Kazuya. Kazuya of all people and he isn't even entirely of human heritage."
"Nope, even his human half came from Heihachi's lineage, I wouldn't consider that either," Nina added, shaking her head.
Steve shrugged. "Well, at least Heihachi had a very human father who cared for his grandson."
"Who was killed by Heihachi, so no," Adam said. "Besides, I don't want him near Mum and Dad. That would not end very well."
Nina gasped. "Oh gosh, yeah. Your parents will be coming too. I don't want their lives to be endangered because of this drama."
"Nah, I don't think Dad was worried about their safety," Steve snorted.
Adam nodded. "Yeah, I was thinking of that too. And we're the kind of people to go around with hidden weapons."
"Bet you, Mum has like ten guns in her person this minute," Steve said, pointing at Nina.
"You bet, I do," Nina smirked. "But no, they won't find anything."
"Oh, you don't know about them," Adam shook his head. "They can be the best detectives when they want to be."
Steve gave him a knowing look, smirking. "Let me guess. You did something and got caught. What was it?"
"None of your business," Adam frowned.
Steve snorted okay. "So, how now? Shall I just tell Auntie Jun that we can't have him stay in our suite?"
Nina pursed her lips. "That feels wrong in some ways. Especially since Heihachi has actually agreed to make peace."
"You sure about that?" Adam shook his head. "Did he say that?"
Steve frowned and got up. "I'm going to the penthouse to ask her. You guys coming?"
Nina frowned and turned to Adam. "I have work to do, why don't you go?"
Adam shrugged. "Sure."
The two of them walked out of the office.
"Do you think Mum and Dad would agree to Heihachi staying with us?" Adam asked. "Because... well, remember yesterday?"
Steve nodded, smirking. "Yeah, I do. Maybe we can talk to them about it."
Adam turned to his son. "You do it?"
"Sure, but you owe me that lasagna. Grandma has been dodging it for so long, you have to convince her to do it for us."
Adam sighed, but nodded. "Sure."
