Tekken: A Man Called X Page #2

---

Thank you.

You came here for answers.

You know me?

In ancient Sparta,

male children were sent

into the wilderness

to live on their own.

Those who survived were allowed

to rejoin the clan.

You take your time.

We've got a job tonight.

Target's name is

Shikedo Hitomi.

He's got his hands in everything

in the eastern seaport.

There's a club, the Fox

Gentlemen's Club.

He's a regular there.

Don't mess it up.

Hey.

I want out.

Do you think you're

the first to try?

The only way out's

in a body bag.

- Hey.

- Hi.

I just wanted to thank you for

saving my life the other day.

Uh, it's okay.

Are you hungry?

I can make you

something to eat.

No, I, I'm fine right now.

Thanks... thanks again.

See you.

Your girlfriend?

Just a neighbor.

I wouldn't get too attached.

Can I change my mind?

It's just spaghetti and

tomato sauce.

It's not a lot but it's the

least I could do.

So... you just moved in, huh?

I mean, we haven't had

anyone new in a while.

Uh...

Aside from the noise, you can't

really beat the price.

Yeah, it's okay.

Yeah, um...

Uh, I see you... going in and

out, like, at strange times.

What is it that you do exactly?

Um... sort of a little bit of

this, a little bit of that.

You know, whatever I can find.

Oh.

Um... I work at a free clinic.

It, it's not much but... it

makes ends meet... I guess.

Um... so, I forgot to ask you,

what's your name?

So?

What?

Your name, silly.

I asked you what your name is.

Um... people call me K.

Is that short for something?

No, it's just K.

Hmm... cool.

Oh, my God.

Sh*t.

What happened?

It's nothing.

One of those guys

just got lucky.

What, from the other day?

That's much better.

I'm glad I could help.

Dinner didn't seem like enough.

Maybe we can do it

again sometime.

Yeah, I would like that.

I dreamed a dream that the

whole world sings

I dreamed a dream that the

whole world sings

You carry your family name.

Fight with honor!

Face your demons.

Demons...

Fight!

Your heart is weak!

Pain...

Do you remember my voice?

Emotion...

You cannot control your mind!

You!

I thought you were dead!

Do you know who I am?

We're still repairing the

damage you have done!

Do you have any records from

when I checked in?

Address, phone numbers,

anything.

I only have your initials.

"K.M."

You paid cash.

Do you remember if I was

alone or with somebody?

No.

Are you sure?

Mm-hmm.

Thank you.

We're on.

Who is it this time?

So, what's his crime

against humanity?

I don't know.

The Minister wants him dead.

That's good enough for me.

I've walked by this place

five times already.

Then make it six.

I see him.

Stay on him.

Damn it.

Who are you?

Who are you?

You don't know who I am?

And yet you're

ready to kill me?

Be smart, boy.

Walk away.

I can't.

Sure you can.

I did.

This isn't what it seems.

I'll see you again.

What are you gonna do, kill me?

You screwed up the mission.

You put us both at risk.

I made a judgment call.

You don't make the call,

I do.

He had The Minister's mark.

He's one of us.

Correction:
he was one of us.

Now he's a traitor

and a target.

Don't you question The

Minister's motives sometimes?

No, I don't.

Don't you think he

talks a good game

but something's not right?

I know you want your freedom

as much as I do.

He got out.

You wanna go rogue?

And have every single one of

The Minister's killers

trying to hunt you down?

That's not my idea of freedom.

He can't just kill everyone.

Yes, he can.

K?

It's just Laura.

She's a potential threat.

Stop.

We can fix this.

What do you propose?

The Minister can't

lose both of us

over one botched mission.

Talk to him, buy us some time.

We'll find the target.

I'll try.

Don't screw it up.

K?

Hey.

Hey.

Uh, how is everything?

How are your stitches?

They're good.

You did a good job, thank you.

No problem.

Um... you're good at

patching people up.

Have you ever done

the opposite?

Opposite?

What do you mean?

I need something taken out.

- Okay, I think I

can get it out.

Fight with honor...

Pain is nothing...

Fear...

Fight with honor...

Pain is...

Got to get the blood flowing.

No, no, no, no,

you should rest.

Relax.

Here.

Hey...

Hey.

How you feeling?

Better.

Thanks.

Looking much better.

I'm, I'm sorry.

Wakey, wakey!

Ohayou gozaimasu, K-san.

Closing the windows won't help.

I can still see you.

You shouldn't do that.

I think you might want to hear

what I have to say.

Radio waves, electricity,

UHF channels...

they're all so easy

to hack into.

What are you gonna do now,

smash your phone?

Who are you?

- I'm the one that got away.

Fury.

I'm flattered.

You remembered my name.

Now, listen to me closely.

The Minister is not the

righteous man he claims to be.

He sells his services on

the black market.

The sleaziest

clientele imaginable.

Why should I believe you?

Trust me.

I'm your only friend.

And I'm not your friend.

Look at this.

You've pissed him off.

Now he's gonna come at you hard

and fast until he gets you.

...

Your only chance at freedom

is to strike first.

If I was you, I'd get yourself

and that pretty little girl

out of there right away.

Wait.

Wait, I have questions.

Is that The Minister?

No.

The Minister has other ways

of getting to me.

This isn't him.

...

I gotta get going.

Wait.

Don't go, please... you're

gonna get killed.

If she wanted me dead, she

wouldn't have warned me.

It could be a trap.

Don't go, please.

Let's just get out of here.

You and me, right now.

Please.

When I get back, we'll leave

together, I promise.

I didn't think you'd come.

I'm here.

The Minister's livid.

The only way I was able

to convince him

not to blow your head off

was to agree to do

the job myself.

I took it out.

There's no explosive.

Then why are you here?

Because I want answers.

And I believe.

In the cause?

No.

In you.

I don't know who I am.

But I know what I'm

doing is right.

So do you.

You could have killed me

multiple times.

But you didn't.

You risked your life

when you didn't take the

shot at me and Fury

when you got the chance.

'Cause you're a good person.

You just don't know it.

It's been a while.

Glad to see you're doing well.

Screw you.

I deserve that.

Here... take a look at this.

How do I know this isn't fake?

It's a fair question.

But a better one...

is do you think it's fake?

We've all been played.

Not like I have.

Let the games begin.

He's gonna kill you.

What do you want?

That was my last confession.

Let's go.

Laura...

Told you not to get attached.

It's too late for that.

I'm going after her.

They'll be waiting for us.

You don't have to go.

I know.

Let's go.

This is it.

Finish your opponent...

or kill another in his place.

Are you an angel?

Hello, pretty.

I never liked you.

It's funny...

I always liked you.

Are you a coward?

How do you know?

...shall you labor...

Traitor.

You killed The Minister.

He's the traitor.
