My friend Siegfried runs a website called Fighter Mania. It used to feature characters from various fighting games as hosts in the site's different sections. When Siegfried redesigned the site in 1999, he "fired" Kyo and a few other characters to make way for new ones. Here's how Kyo took the shock...
***************

Chris: Hey, everyone! *waves* Hi, Shermie! Hi, Yashiro!

Yashiro: *behind the camera* Will you cut that OUT?!

Chris: *clears throat* I'm here at King's bar to interview one of the biggest names in fighting history... Kyo Kusanagi, Japan Team leader and THE King of Fighters grand champion!

*Camera pans to a shot of Kyo, slumped semi-conscious at a table with a few empty beer bottles on it.*

Kyo: ........

Chris: Errrr... *sweatdrop*

*Camera zooms in on Kyo for a close-up.*

Yashiro: Heh heh heh! Let's have a good shot of that drool there, eh?

Chris: Waah, you're MEAN! *slowly walks up to Kyo and taps him gently on the shoulder* Mr. Kusanagi? Kyo?

Kyo: >BUUUUURRRRRRRP!<

Chris: EWWWWWWWWW!!! *covers his nose to protect against Kyo's beer breath*

Yashiro: HA HA HA HA HA! Wait until the Satella News Network sees THIS!

Chris: *scratches head* Ummmm... Hey, Kyo?

Kyo: >HIC!< Yeah?

Chris: Can I, ummmm, interview you? Just for a little while?

Kyo: Suuuure, doll... >HIC!< I'll give you a break, since you're shuch a cutie...

Chris: *turns red* I'M A _GUY_!!!

Kyo: Whatever.

Yashiro: .......!!! *trying to hold in his laughter*

Chris: AAAANYWAAAAYYY... AHEM! How does it feel to be a consistent King of Fighters champion?

Kyo: It'sh great. Get lotsha giiiiirrlsh... *gestures with one hand* Everyone likesh you, and the guysh on the shtreet are scared o' you... It'sh great to get lotsh o' reshpect. And of course, you can't beat that feeling o' knowin' that all your hard work, all your training finally paid off... >HIC!<

Chris: What do you have to say about your teammates?

Kyo: Oh, Goro's great. We've been buddiesh ever since I was in the firsht grade. I've known Benimaru for a long time too, but lately, I've been avoidin' him...

Chris: Why?

Kyo: Well, firsht thing, there'sh all these rumors that he'sh "THAT WAY", you know... and I wouldn't be surprised, conshiderin' the way he moves, the way he dressesh... You'd think he was a member o' the Village People.

Chris: ... And?

Kyo: And the other rumor says he'sh got a crush on me. *shrugs* Better safe than sorry!

Chris: AIIIEEEEE!

Kyo: *murmurs to himself loudly* Say, that might explain all the "secret-admirer" lettersh I've been gettin' in the mail...

Chris: *laughs nervously* AHEHEHEH! Ummm... *pauses* I understand that you've also had the satisfaction of beating your arch-rival, Iori Yagami...

Kyo: Yagami... HAH!

Yashiro: *murmuring* My thoughts exactly!

Chris: If you wouldn't mind too much, Kyo... could I ask you how this whole rivalry between you and Iori started?

Kyo: WEEEELLLL, it's a loooong shtory. Way back before any of ush were born, there was shome kinda feud between Iori's family and mine. They used to be good pals, but then Iori's family sold their soulsh to Orochi, and of course my family didn't like that at all...

Chris: Uh-huh. *nods*

Kyo: Sho there you got it. My family hatesh Orochi, and Iori's family doeshn't. Shimple as that.

Chris: And how do you feel about beating Iori?

Kyo: Pretty good. >HIC!< Actually, I don't care about thish whole Orochi thing. I jusht wanted to beat him up for stealin' all the girlsh.

Yashiro: *can't hold it in any more* HEH HEH HEH!

Kyo: I mean, look at 'im. What'sh HE got? I'm a REAL man! But then all the girlsh jusht swarm around HIM like a bunch o' antsh in a sugar jar. WHY? Don't tell me girlsh these daysh like their men with BLOUSES!

Chris: *giggles* Heehee!

Yashiro: Excellent point there, Kyo!

Chris: *turns to Yashiro* Hey, _I'm_ running this interview! You're just the cameraman!

Kyo: And tell me, tell me... doesh a REAL man go 'round with a garter belt hangin' 'round his KNEES? I don't THINK SHO! >HIC!<

Chris: Okaaaayyy......

Kyo: And he'sh a WOMANIZER too, don'tcha know? Jusht look at his teammatesh in 1996. WHOOOOOOOO! Mature AND Vice! Not one... but TWO hot sexy ladies! NAUGHTY-NAUGHTY!!! *waggles his index finger in front of his face*

Chris: EHEHEHEH...

Kyo: AND... WHAT doesh he think he'sh tryin' to accomplish with that "Yaotome" move o' his, eh? Y'know, that one where he startsh clawin' and tearin' away at someone's CHEST? Y'know how BAD that looksh when he's performing it on a LADY? He'sh SICK, I'm tellin' ya! One time he did that on Mai, so she flew right off the handle and gave 'im the whoopin' of his life! Got even better when ANDY came along, heh heh! Boy, HE showed him! And to top it all off, they shaid they'd sue him for sexual harrashment!

Yashiro: AHAAAA HA HA HA HAAAAA!

Chris: Heeeeyyy! Quiet back there! *clears throat* So... moving onto another topic... How's your relationship with your father, Saishu?

Kyo: Oh, Dad? Heh. Some dad _he_ ish. Leavin' me jusht when I was shtartin' out as a King of Fightersh competitor... then turnin' againsht me! *clenches fists* I OUGHTA...

Chris: But wasn't it Rugal's brainwashing that turned him against you?

Kyo: Yeah, SUUUUURE, blame it all on RUGAL! >HIC!< The ol' man hatesh me... *sniff* My dad hatesh me... *sob!*

Chris: *rapidly changes the subject* W-... what's the King of Fighters champion doing here in this bar? Eheheh...

Kyo: Awww, I got fired from Siegfried's place... I'm not runnin' the Copycatsh archive any more. >HIC!< Sho I figured I'd come on down here, since there'sh nothin' better to do.

Chris: *scratches head* Fired? Whoa. Siegfried hadn't told me about that...

Kyo: There'sh four of us... me, Ukyo, that rabbit girl Alice, and..... *scratches head* Who'sh the fourth one? >HIC!< Can't remember...

*A shadowy figure half-stumbles towards Kyo*

Iori: You forgot ME! >HIC!<

Kyo: Awww, YOU? Hey, GET outta here! *tries to wave Iori aside* Thish ish MY show!

Iori: It'sh not ANY MORE! *sticks his face directly in front of the camera* HI, LADIESH! *winks*

Yashiro: *yanks camera away* Get your ugly face out of my line of vision, Yagami!!! I've got no time to waste on you!

Iori: *starts singing* I'm... too sexy for my shirt... too sexy for my shirt... sho sexy, it huuuurrtsh! *starts unbuttoning his black jacket, swaying his hips*

Kyo: *leaps up* OH YEAH?! *flings away his own jacket and practically tears his shirt off* See how the ladiesh like THISH! HA! *gets in front of the camera and strikes a macho pose* CAN'T BEAT A BOD LIKE _MINE_, BUSHTER!

Chris: *nervously* Uhhhh... Hey, Yashiro... Maybe we should get out of here! Before things get WAY out of hand!

Yashiro: *suddenly snickering with glee* WHY BOTHER? I've changed my mind! *zooms in closer to Kyo and Iori for a better shot* This footage is going to make us RICH!

Iori: I'm... too sexy for my PANTS...

Yashiro: Fame and fortune, HERE WE COME!!!

Chris: EEEYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! *dashes out of the bar*
