Street Fighter II: V (1995) s02e01 Episode Script

A Battle for Life, Pride, and the Princess

Reunited with Chun Li in Barcelona, Ryu and Ken encountered Balrog a nationally revered matador at a bullfighting arena.
Chun Li's beauty caught Balrog's eye and he declared his love but his cold demeanor only made Chun Li uncomfortable.
Later that night, a masked figure broke into Chun Li's hotel room, where she lay sleeping.
He stole a kiss from her and then fled! Begone, O pathetic rival! Ken, what happened?.
Just as I came in, I thought I saw someone leap out onto the balcony.
But, somehow, he just disappeared.
Disappeared?.
Didn't you see anything, Chun Li?.
Well, sort of I could sense someone close to me.
But it seemed like a dream.
It was so strange What's wrong with me?.
My head feels so fuzzy Like I've been drinking sweet wine.
Hey, pull yourself together, Chun Li.
Are you okay?.
But I'm sure there was someone in the room with me If anyone did sneak in here the only escape route would be to leap up to the roof.
Yeah, and I doubt anyone could jump up that high.
Maybe it was just my imagination.
I wonder if it was him?.
- "Him" who?.
- You mean Balrog?.
I just get the feeling it was him.
It couldn't have been! It's a possibility.
Whoever came to look at Chun Li was no ordinary man.
Gentleman, you are here today at this classified meeting because you represent the best investigators we know of.
I've gathered you here to tell you about a huge crime syndicate whose existence we've only recently become aware of and whose hidden ambitions are global in scope.
And how Interpol has determined that, so as to shut them down quickly, an investigation must be launched at once.
- You may begin.
- Yes, sir.
Recently, 5000 hectares of upper Amazon tropical rain forest in central South America was purchased by an environmental protection group calling itself "Caesar.
" When we learned of the 400 billion dollar price that was to be paid we launched an investigation.
We learned that the money was paid from a Swiss bank account.
That Swiss account apparently gathers similarly huge amounts of money on a daily basis.
And the group paying into the accountwas Ashura! Ashura??!.
Ashura built up huge profits in the southeast Asian drug trade and then deposited the money into this account.
They made money on drugs and then used the profits to buy a rain forest?.
All we know at this initial stage is that this mystery syndicate received money from Ashura and then, posing as the Caesar environmental protection group used it to buy this rain forest land.
Do we know their name?.
I'll take it from here.
The name of this group, which not only controls a drug syndicate but also an environmental protection group capable of purchasing huge tracts of rain forest land is Shadowlaw! Shadowlaw And the name of the person who stands at the top of Shadowlaw is Vega! Their nationality, gender and date of birth are unknown to us.
I'm sorry to say this is all the data we have on them at this time.
Gentlemen! From the this day forward your one duty will be to determine who this syndicate is and exactly what it's up to! Vega At our current speed, we should be touching down in Barcelona at 1 8:.
00 hours.
Chun Li.
How are you?.
Are you a little calmer now?.
Yeah, I'm fine now.
Did you sleep well last night?.
Ken, someone left a letter for you at the front desk.
Here.
What could this be?.
"Mr.
Ken Masters, you are invited to join us at the Castle de Maria Isabel for a grand ball this evening.
" A grand brawl??!.
Hey, that sounds like fun! So, what kind of guys do we fight??!.
A BALL, you nut! As in a formal dance.
The sort of party the upper crust typically throws.
The kind where you get to wear formal gowns and stuff??!.
Oh, I wanna go, too! Of course.
A female escort is expected at formal parties.
You mean it??!.
Okay! Let's dress up and really impress 'em! I'll pass, guys.
Parties aren't my style.
Figured you'd say that.
Chun Li, you look great! That dress really suits you.
Where are you going with your training clothes?.
Figured I'd work on developing my Ki back there.
Don't worry about me, guys.
Go have fun! Sure thing! We'll dance the place down.
Right, Chun Li?.
Something wrong, Chun Li?.
No It's nothing.
Okay Good to hear.
It's nothing Stop the car! Go.
Mr.
Ken Masters?.
That's me.
We've been waiting foryou.
Ifyou'd follow me.
And be so kind as to please put these on.
What are these?.
Guess they're throwing a masked ball.
What's that for?.
Ifyou would please come in.
I think Ryu may have called this one right.
That thing's a steel deathmatch cage.
Ladies and gentlemen.
I welcome you this evening to the Castle de Maria Isabel.
It's him, Chun Li.
He may be wearing a mask but that's definitely Balrog.
Don't you think?.
Chun Li?.
Chun Li, what's wrong?.
Snap out of it! Tonight's show will be a bit different than usual as I have invited a guest to participate.
His name is Mister Ken Masters! Mister Ken Masters, would you kindly come up onstage with me?.
Don't feel I'm forcing you to come However Can it be you don't have the courage to come up here?.
After what you did to her??!.
Sure I'll come up there! I accept your gracious invitation, Mr.
Balrog.
We are honored to welcome you Mr.
Vega.
What did you do to Chun Li last night??!.
I cast a spell on the lovely princess.
You drugged her, didn't you??!.
The more we met, the more her heart became mine.
Ifyou intend to interfere with my love then in this arena you must defeat me.
But that is impossible.
Because, tonight, you will die here.
I'll make you eat those words! There are no rules in this arena.
Simply choose your preferred weapon.
"Weapon"?.
Your shiny trinkets don't interest me! Oh?.
Are you saying you intend to face me bare-handed?.
You'll regret that.
Ken Masters I wish to honoryour valor with a ritual.
Will you accept?.
This intro's too long, pal! Let's get started! Now it's your turn.
Not even a twitch of the eyebrow You are indeed a worthy foe! The Initiation of Blood! It's going to be a fight to the death! He's serious about this! This show's going to be one of the rarest kinds! Tonight's party is absolutely fantastic! Here, now, our blood has mixed together as one.
You and I are now blood brothers.
I'm honored! We two blood brothers now fight for the hand of one girl! Oh, how foolish a battle! Oh, how cruel is our destiny! But it is a battle so foolish, so cruel, it is beautiful! Don't you agree, Ken Masters?.
Are you finished yet?.
I pity your inability to appreciate this, Ken Masters.
I thought you could understand Let us raise the curtain on this battle! You are the first to ever strike my face, Ken Masters! I must return the favor! Damn it! The battle between the great fighters Ken and Balrog rages with the eyes of Shadowlaw leader Vega watching both closely! Those eyes have also caught a glimpse of Chun Li and Ryu.
How will Vega's devilish machinations affect their fates?.
The shadow of death draws close to Ken! Next time, on Street Fighter II V:.
"The Unveiled Ruler.
