Yakushima Plans Part Nine: The King of Iron Fist Tournament

"Ah you're awake," said Lee. "We must leave for the tournament. It starts in a few hours. We will go straight after breakfast.""Sure," I said. "Is it far away?""No not really," said Lee. "It's only about ten minutes away. We'll be there in time."So after breakfast, we headed straight to the Mishima Zaibatsu in Lee's Bugatti La Voiture Noire. We had to go to the Mishima Zaibatsu first to know where was Shasha's first match. The car was amazing. When we arrived, we saw that there were many contestants waiting there, and I can see Shasha there too. She was standing somewhere at the back with the sisters and Steve. There was a big screen displaying the contestants' names and pictures together with their opponents. The battle arena that they were supposed to go to was displayed too. Shasha's name was somewhere in the middle, and her opponent was someone by the name of Lili.  She was a young girl with long blonde hair. The place that their match was held was in a place called Playroom.""Oh my gosh you're my opponent!" said Lili, shaking Shasha. "You trained well didn't you? But you surely don't believe you can beat me?""We have to see first," said Shasha, grinning. "Where is this Playroom anyway?""The Zaibatsu car will take you," said Nina. "Go, you two. The car is waiting for you outside, with your names.""Can Sebastian come with me?" asked Lili. "Well if you say he can't, he will still come with me.""Of course he can," said Anna. "Go ahead, call him, do whatever you want."They went off together to the Zaibatsu car. Lee and I walked over to the sisters. "You're coming with me," said Anna to me. "Nina's coming in her car behind us.""Okay," I said. "What about my bags?""Just shove them in the boot," said Anna. "Come on, we wouldn't wanna miss the match.""I'll follow you two in my car," said Nina. "I'll go watch Steve's match after this.""Sure I'll text you the arena," said Steve. "My first opponent is Hwoarang. Wonder how that's gonna end..."I followed Anna in her red Ferrari convertible while her sister followed in a purple Lamborghini Urus. Everyone here seems to have a luxury car...So we followed the Zaibatsu car to a large white mansion, owned by Lili. Anna was telling m about Lili on the way, while driving. Emilie De Rochefort, or Lili, is apparently the daughter of a rich oil tycoon, and is the same age as Shasha. She made a special request with Jin to have her first match there."She's a spoilt child?" I asked and Anna nodded. "Hmm...""She's spoilt, but she's a nice girl," said Anna. "She's a helpful person, and very generous too.""Okay then," I said. "Wait isn't she the one who sponsored for the other girls to come to Yakushima?""Yep she's the one," said Anna. "She's in this surprise too. Our first plan was just the five of us going to Yakushima, but Xiaoyu said she wanted to come too. Alisa joined in, and soon Asuka too. Asuka is Lili's best friend, used to be think rivals before this. So because of that, Lili thought that it would be fun to travel too, and sponsored the whole trip.""That's nice of her," I said. "Where is she from?""Monaco," said Anna. "That's why her outfit consists of the colours of the country flag."We went in and it kinda looked like an arena with big stuffed animal dolls and heart-shaped balloons on the ground. The place was surrounded by seats. I'm guessing Lili had this place built for the soul purpose of having tournaments here. I sat myself on the back of the arena. I decided to not sit with the sisters because Shasha might spot me. I want this to be a surprise for her. There was a big screen on the wall too. The screen showed information about the tournament.The two girls stood in front of each other and got into their fighting stances. Soon, music started playing and the girls said something to each other before starting to fight. The blonde girl fought as if she was dancing. She was fast, but my daughter had countered her attacks and defeated her. The second round, Lili defeated Shasha, but the third round she won! The sisters cheered too. Once Lili was announced K.O, Shasha helped Lili up, and they both said something to each other before running off to the resting area to drink some water and cool off. The screen showed who Shasha's next opponent was gonna be some sumo wrestler by the name of Ganryu, and the stage was in a place called Autumn temple.I waited outside while the sisters went to see Shasha at the resting area and cheer for her. I badly wanted to go too, but the sisters stopped me."That would ruin the surprise," said Anna. 'We want it to be a surprise for her!""Fine..." I said. "But I'll be watching from far.""So I guess I'll be going after this," said Nina. "Steve's next match will be held at the Ghetto Pit. His opponent is Law."Anna finally came out and we went in her car to the next area that Shasha's next battle was in. This time, we went to the place called Autumn temple, except it wasn't autumn. The fighters were to fight at the temple yard. The sumo wrestler didn't look very pleasing. They got into their fighting stance, and the music started as the fight began. Shasha somehow managed to beat this guy. I don't know how, but she did. I guess all that training with the Williams and Steve really helped.After that, the match was held a place called Manning Valley. Her opponent was a weird fellow by the name of Yoshimitsu. He carried a sword, and he looked like an alien. His right hand spun around, like the blades of a helicopter!"Is he even human?" I asked Anna. "He looks like an alien!"Anna started laughing. "Yes he is," said Anna. "That arm of his, it's a robotic prosthetic arm. I'm sure Shasha can beat him.""But the weapon..." I said. "Is he even allowed to bring it?""Apparently yes," said Anna. "Don't worry, I'm sure she can dodge it."I was kinda worried. But to my surprise, Shasha swiftly dodged the blade of his sword and won the fight. She didn't even let the blade touch her! She did K.O the second round though, but still avoided the blade. The fourth round was in a place called Heaven's gate. The place had a giant Buddha head statue from the ground. Her opponent was a girl by the name of Asuka. They both arrived and they acted like they knew each other. I'm guessing they were friends. So my daughter had managed to make friends in this tournament besides the sisters and Steve. They started fighting and at the end, Shasha won. The next was against a girl by the name of Christie. It was in a place called Electric fountain where the place had fountains that shot colourful light rays. The stage music was good too. This Christie person wore really revealing clothes, and I kinda didn't like the look of her. She fought as if she was breakdancing. It was obvious that Shasha found her to be a challenging opponent, because she lost the first round. She soon got the hang of it and defeated her in the next two rounds. Shasha's next opponent was a girl named Julia. She looked pretty. She wore glasses and a shirt with the word REFORESTATION printed on. She looked like she was streaming a video while fighting. The place called Road of the stars. The place looked good, there was a waterfall at the side. Shasha kicked Julia, but she jumped over her, landing behind Shasha. But by the time she can balance herself after landing, Shasha kicked her to the ground and punched her on the face multiple times before pulling her arm. She defeated Julia and her next opponent was a girl in pigtails by the name of Ling Xiaoyu.Xiaoyu looked like a friendly girl, and she was speaking something to Shasha. From where I was sitting, I can faintly hear her say 'Happy Birthday' to her. Yep they're definitely friends...Shasha won the fight and they talked more before proceeding to the next round. The next stage that Shasha was to go to was called Winter Palace. This time, Anna drove back to the Mishima Zaibatsu. The battle was in the 65th floor of the building. The place was decorated to look like a castle. Lee was there too, he was the announcer. Shasha's opponent was Steve.
