Tokyo's Airport, Januar 5th 1999.

Daniel's private jet landed after a long journey. They are get out and stretched out." I hope we get our things as soon as possible. I could use a cigarette." Daniel growled as she looked at him disapprovingly. After they took out their luggage, they went out to the front door and looking around. They saw that the limo, which was due to the snowstorm, was late."I don't belive it. I hate snow." He muttered again, when Akira stomped on his feet. „Okay! I'll stop whinning." After she stop the stomped, Daniel wonder one thing: Why yaguchi loves this woman? All the way through the flight, one wrong word and it hit, kicked, bit, stung.

The limousine came in with great difficulty, when daniel had already smoked one cigarette. The driver came out, who was pretty clumsy because he almost fell into a half-frozen puddle when he got out of the driver's seat. „Good day sir! Sorry about the late." Said he, while bow a little and picking up the packages after standing up. „I don't care about excuses. It's timet o go home." Said Daniel and got into the car. Akira followed him, but immediately returned her luggage from the driver. She prefers to keep it with him. The journey was, of course, slow and boring. It was not possible to play because the portable sega genesis and arcade imitation were exhausted. Daniel was looking out the window. „Where the hell was this snow in December? When it was Christmas?" Ask Dan silently. „Probably haven't been watching the news, Sir. it's been a week since the forecast promised a blizzard." reply the driver. „Blizzard, eh? Great. By the way, Akira! Do you have any idea where we might be looking for Yaguchi?" She just point the arcade imitation. „I get it. I bet you even know which one he goes to? 'cause there's only ten in one street, that's for sure." Instead of answering, akira pressed his face against the window and pointed. There was the Maru Miye Arcade. „Well, that's good news. Now we know where to search." Daniel moan to the window. The girl let go of the guy's head and leaned back in the seat. No more words were spoken between them until they arrived at Daniel's mansion. The gates opened and the car went smoothly to the parking lot, because the snow was cleared by the hired workers. After the disembarkation, we didn't have to worry about the luggage either, because people had that to do this. the man showed Akira around the mansion, which was a two-story, normally built building, so nothing fancy. „What I'm about to show you is gonna knock your socks off." said Daniel in front of his bedroom. When he opening the door, Akira was really shocked. Two TVs and a lot of video game consoles and games in him his collection. Famicom, Super Famicom, Sega Master System, Sega Genesis, PC-Engine, Atari 2600 és egy Nintendo 64 lined up in one table. There was also an unopened psx and some freshly bought games on the table. „I can see you're already loving it. It's not much of a collection, but I've only been collecting these for two years." Not big? Akira think. She could only dream of this. It was almost impossible for her to own a single console, because his supervisor at the time, teacher Moegi, said they were harmful to her and unnecessary. He couldn't watch them for long because she started churning on his stomach. „Fact is, I'm hungry, too. I'll have dial the chef." Daniel used his room phone and called the Cook Department. he hung up after a little chat." That's what I like about my workers.They're always on time. It's already done. Let's go to the dining room.

The dining room was so nig, it could fit 30 people with great comfort. After sitting across from each other, the waiter served burgers with fries. „I know it's not Japanese, but I'm not really into oriental food. I'll stick to my roots, the American." Said Daniel before take a bite. Akira doesn't care about this detail right now. „Mogaaa." She had this sort of moan when she bit the first bite with her mouth wide open. As soon as he chewed and swallowed the first bite, she blushed. „ I see, you like it." Daniel said then smiling. He took a another bite of his food. She just nodded and continued to eat. For a long time, all he could hear was the sound of eating noises and the strange moan of Akira, when she opened his mouth to eat. By the time the last crumb was gone, they both sat back satisfied. „ That's hit the spot. Those bourgeois dicks says on the burger say it's bad and shitlike. Yeah, and deer steaks are like lawn mats if it made by the local chef there. I never understood why she wasn't fired. Although, I suspect it's because my father's meat carrot is well cared for by this slut." Daniel philosophizing then akira was laugh a little. „ By the way, isn't it interesting that both of our names are linked to video games?" She looked at him with a questionful look. Daniel leaned back in his chair and continued his monologue. „ It's very simple. Your last name comes from Street fighter producer Ono Yoshinori, with some rewriting of course. And your real name is from street fighter's ex creator, Nishitani Akira. Sure, it's a coincidence, but it's kind of weird, don't you think?" Akira thought a little, then shrugged her shoulders, then pointed to the Daniel. He took out a cigarette and lit it on fire. „ Mine? Oh ,of course, you just updated me from the game world. I got my name from the protagonist of the 1998 video game called Medievil. The hero name was Sir Daniel Fortesque. Of course, I was born first. Wthat's what I'm saying, money and status don't come with common sense. That's what I'm saying, money and status don't come with common sense."Daniel closed his monologue. Akira after a short rest, stood up and pointed out. She wanted to continue his search for Yaguchi. „That's not gonna happen anytime soon." Said Daniel after looking to the window. „ This won't stop until tomorrow. She began to growl and think about to slap her friend, but he said without looking at her. „Just think, what happened if you met him? what do you say to him if you can? Hey Yaguchi! I love you, but quess what: I already have a husband. Come, I'll introduce you. Do you have any idea what's going to happen if my parents or one of your parent's people spots the situation? They'll figure out the plan and we can throw the whole thing in the trash. What I want to point out is that we need a plan here. Which we can cheat here him." Akira was thinking after that. Daniel's right, but she need a way to do it, and no one in his parent's men see it. Then she clapped her hands and signaled with her hand to follow me. As soon as they got to Daniel's room, she went to the psx games and took out Tekken 3 and showed it to him like Link did when he got some key. „Oh, I get it. Since Yaguchi is a big video game fan, he'd be cool with it. If it's about, prized tournament, he totaly bite the bait. I'll write the invitations and multiply them. Luckily, I have a printer and a computer, so I don't have to dawdle by hand. However, we will first need an invitation poster and a couple of blank forms with the name, age and main character, which he/she use." Akira nodded with a smile. She was glad to he is smart. Then, she put his hand on his face with his index finger and middle finger open and posed. „ I do not understand. Now should Tekken 3 or Jojo s Bizarre Adventure Heritage of the Future be the tournament game?" ask Daniel. Akira stomped on his foot. „Why did you do this?" Ask Daniel while hopping his uninjured leg. „ Okay, I get it now. You want it to be a masked party, do you?" Oh, finally. Akira thought to herself, and then she went to the TV to try the Playstation. It was time for her to train.

For the rest of the day, Daniel made the invitations and printed them. Until then, Akira played Tekken 3 and Gun Jack was her favorite. She could never get away from the sluggish, but strong characters. Plus, she played arcade mode on the hardest difficulty without losing round.

The next day.

Daniel and Akira went to different veichles. Their purpose was different. Akira goal is to contact her sister, Makoto Oono. She was the firstborn, but she was considered a disgrace because she rebelled against her parents and the system. Since then, she's been living in the mansion nearby. Akira used to see her and wonder what she'd done to you since then. But, the first surprise was already at the entrance. At the fence she saw a tomb standing. She opened the gate and took a closer look. On the tombstone the following inscription was written:" Here lies jiiya. Your last ride will lead you to heaven." Akira's in shock. Jiiya was the only person, who ever treated her normally in the Oono household. It was thanks to him that she could hold a controller in her hand at all. She wouldn't have thought that. She wouldn't even go into the apartment and she was already getting sad news. She stood there for a minute, while processing the information. Finally she turned around and went back to the entrance and opened the door. There was a great darkness inside, as if no one was here. This is strange, since there must be a minimum number of staff in this case. As she ventured deeper and deeper, she was struck by the stench of alcohol. She couldn't stand the smell. She is stopped and listening. There was a steady snoring in the living room. She approached the living room carefully, where in the chair her sister, Makoto slept her intoxicating sleep. When she was so close, she noticed that her own sister was slightly drunk, and she still had the bottle in her hand, from which the sake left drop by drop. „It must have been some cheap shit."Akira tought, and then she woke up Makoto with a big slap. That get up like the badly held-down pig they were about to stab. It took a few seconds for him to see who was responsible for the alarm. „No way... Sister?" She asked, grumbling. She thought she was dreaming. Akira just nodded, then Makoto burst into a slow cry. „ I'm so sorry for what I did to you, and I haven't even tried to get you out of the family business. I just pushed you more into it, forgetting that you want to be free, too. You must hate me now, and so must Yaguchi. That's why I haven't spoken to him in almost three years." Akira caressed her sister's head. She never had a grudge against her, and she never thought that Yaguchi would hold a grudge too. Since, because of Makoto, he passed the moped exam and also received the vehicle from her. It took ten minutes for Makoto to calm herself down. by the time he finished, Akira shirt on his left shoulder was completely soaked. She showed Makoto to the kicthen. She was cooking something for her.

While Akira was working in the kitchen, she thought about the situation. She was happy to see her sister, but the fact that she was in such a shabby state and that Jiya had died made her sad. She hoped Daniel would have more success with Tekken 3 championship promotion and find Yaguchi. Makoto told her that the old driver died of cancer last year, and his last wish was to see Akira Oono for the last time, but the parents didn't seem to hear him. Another good reason to hate her mother and carry out Daniel plan. No one knew her father was a victim in this game.
