"You…"
Chun Li scrunched back with fear. "What do you want?" Her voice was hoarse and soft.
A voice hissed. "Lord Bison has special plans for you. But me…I have my own reasons."
He reached out for her as she quickly dodged. Instantly, he attempted again. This time he caught her. He pulled her body close to his. She screamed, but was silenced as he covered her mouth with his palm. His face turned into pure pleasure as he took in the sweet aroma of her hair.
"My beautiful senorita, you are mine now."

After 'a lot' of explanations, Ryu and Sakura were finally updated on the details. Obviously troubled, the three sat silently on one of the Masters family's private jets. Sakura glanced at Ryu, who was staring intensely out the window.
*He hasn't even spoken a word since we boarded. *
She walked up silently behind him and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Ryu?"
Ryu looked up, startled. He raised his eyebrows in recognition.
Sakura hesitantly brought her hand back to her side.
"Are you okay?" She asked in a soft tone.
He shook his head slowly. "Not until she's found…safely."
He turned around without another word and resumed his withdrawn position.

~ Ryu ~

*Chun Li…please be safe…please. You can't give up. Don't let us down…the ones that love you. Fei Long, Cammy, Ken, Sakura...me. *
He gripped the arm of the chair positioned beside him.
*Don't you dare leave me…I-I don't know what I would do without you. *
Closing his eyes, he rested in the chair…visioning 'her'.

Sakura watched Ryu as he silently dozed off with a worried mind. Tears streamed down her face. She was crying for Chun Li…and for herself.
*He loves her…*
Oh come on. You knew that.
Her mind spoke back.
Did you actually think that he would stop?
Sakura closed her eyes, falling into a deep sleep, speaking one word.
"No."
Ken walked into the back after talking briefly with the pilot in the cockpit. He raised his eyebrows as he saw Sakura and Ryu sleeping.
"Funny. I'd thought that they'd never rest."
He stopped as he saw a gas coming from the vent. "Gas?"
Darkness.
The plane went down.
