The streets of the city were oddly deserted as Xiaoyu made her way home from school. It had been a rough day, she had broken the gym again and cost the school another three hundred grand. Principal Ganryu had hauled her into the office, scolded her and set her to work cleaning the mess, it'd be weeks before the gym would be operational again and years until the repairs were paid for.
Though, as tired as she was from the manual labour, Xiaoyu was still in high spirits; the gentle evening breeze was drying the sweat on her brow and chest and the sky was a shimmering vision of beauty full of stars, the only thing missing was the comforting bustle of the busy residents which gave the city its character and charisma.

A few streets later and Xiaoyu heard it, heard what had obviously attracted the attention of every city resident. Quickening her pace Xiaoyu made her way to the source of the noise, soon she saw a crowd of hundreds who were all stood in front of a pair of large iron gates. The iron gates led to a courtyard and the courtyard led to Rochefort mansion.

The earth shook with the crashes and bangs emanating from the mansion. The crowd outside the gates were in an uproar complaining about the peace being disturbed, that things had gone on long enough and that something should be done about the commotion.

Pushing herself to the front of the bawling crowd, Xiaoyu wrapped her hands around the bars of the iron gates and peered through. Standing on the other side of the gates with a handkerchief pressed to his eyes was Sebastian, the old Rochefort butler.

"Hey!" shouted Xiaoyu from the gates "What's going on?!"

"Oh," replied Sebastian through tears of joy "Miss Lili and that Japanese girl are fighting again. It does my heart proud to see her so happy."

"Shouldn't somebody stop this?!" screamed Xiaoyu over the roar of the crowd.

Sebastian said nothing and instead waved his handkerchief at arm's length to direct Xiaoyu's gaze.
Littered on the ground below Lili's bedroom window were the unconscious bodies of the entire police precinct. Even the super cop, Lei Wulong, lay broken and defeated amongst the other motionless officers.

"I guess somebody did try..." said Xiaoyu with a sigh.

Gripping tighter onto the bars of the iron gates, Xiaoyu pulled herself up out of the crowd and over the gates. Landing gracefully on the other side, Xiaoyu took a deep breath and ran into the Rochefort mansion. As she entered the crowd behind her cheered her selfless resolve.

Running through countless corridors, hallways, kitchens, dining rooms (all of which were deserted) and numerous flights of stairs, Xiaoyu finally happened across Lili's bedroom.

Beyond the door to Lili's bedroom lay a scene that could only be described as a warzone. Walls had crumbled, the floor was riddled with human sized holes, curtains hung in tatters, teddy bears lay with their stuffing hanging out, doors were in pieces and the bed lay in ruin.
In the midst of it all were Asuka Kazama and Lili Rochefort, both were exchanging blows; Lili leading with her feet and Asuka leading with her fists. Their clothes were torn, ripped and barely covering their bodies, though neither girl seemed to care.

"Stop this now!" Screamed Xiaoyu.

"Va te faire foutre!" hissed Lili to a confused Xiaoyu.

"Yeah... get lost, Xiaoyu" panted Asuka who seemed to be losing the battle.

"I can't! You're disturbing the peace! There's a very angry mob outside of the gates, they'll tear this place down if you don't stop this right now!"

"Well, what do you say Lili," asked Asuka as she blocked one kick and side stepped another, "Should we finish this then?!"

With a swift kick to Asuka's stomach which sent her reeling backwards, Lili smiled, nodded, pointed to Asuka and spat something else in French that Xiaoyu didn't understand.

Seconds later and both of the semi naked girls were running across the room at each other. In the same second both girls took to the air; Lili once again led with her feet while Asuka led with her fists.
Xiaoyu covered her eyes with her hands and grimaced as an ugly thud, the sound of flesh and bone meeting flesh and bone, filled the room. The impact blew out what few windows were remaining around the mansion and forced Xiaoyu to take a few tumbling steps backwards to keep her balance.

A moment of silence later and Xiaoyu dared to peer through the gaps between her fingers.
Both Lili and Asuka had rendered each other unconscious. Sprawled unceremoniously at opposite ends of the room the two girls lay battered, bruised and unmoving.
From beyond one of the many broken windows of the mansion Xiaoyu could hear the crowd cheering with relief that the noise and violence had ceased. Xiaoyu, however, wasn't as thrilled.

"When they wake up they'll just pick up where they left off..." she said to herself. "I can't let that happen..."

Scanning the wholly destroyed room, Xiaoyu searched for something that'd bring her some inspiration to negate the potential of a rematch... at least for a little while.
Suddenly she found it, a way to grant the citizens of the city at least a few extra hours of peace.

Running about the desolate room, Xiaoyu began pulling down the tattered curtains, retrieving the torn bed covers and harvesting all of the ripped clothing that she could find. Dumping the collected tarnished materials at her feet, Xiaoyu then pulled both Lili and Asuka from the opposite ends of the room and lay them beside each other.

Tearing two lengths from one of the torn curtains, Xiaoyu scrunched the pastel pink material up into two balls and pressed one of each into Lili and Asuka's mouths, she then took two more strips and tied each of them tightly between the two unconscious girls' lips and knotted them behind their heads.
Rolling Asuka onto her back and dragging Lili face down on top of her, Xiaoyu took Asuka's hands and bound her wrists together behind Lili's back, she then tied Asuka's wrists to Lili's torso by using a long strip of curtain that snaked around from Lili's back, between her breasts and around again.
Rolling Lili on to her back, Xiaoyu repeated the process with the last strip of tattered curtain.

With Lili's tarnished bed covers, Xiaoyu ripped yet more lengths to suit her purpose and bound both Asuka and Lili's ankles and thighs together and then bound their legs to one another in the same way. With the limited amount of ripped clothing that she had managed to scavenge, Xiaoyu strengthened the two girls' gags to ensure that when they regained consciousness they wouldn't be heard screaming at each other.

Standing and smiling to herself as Lili and Asuka shared an unconscious bound embrace. Xiaoyu made her way to Lili's bedside cabinet (which was one of the items of furniture still standing) and raided her nail varnish collection...

***

Asuka was the first to regain consciousness, it took a while for hear ears to stop ringing, her head to stop thudding and the cobwebs to fall away from her eyes, but within moments she had recollected her thoughts, the fight with Lili and Xiaoyu's interference...
Noticing Lili's face and gagged mouth immediately in front of her, Asuka growled an attempted to insult her for being so close only to realise that she had been gagged too, not only gagged but bound hand and foot to Lili's unconscious body.
Still weak from the fight that had rendered her unconscious, Asuka struggled against her bonds and growled into her gag in frustration, she hated Lili and never wanted to be this close to her unless she was punching her in the face, so being bound to her so tightly was a torture Asuka could barely endure.

Asuka's constant writhing and stifled screaming eventually woke Lili from her peaceful slumber and into a reaction of shock and anger. Noticing that Lili had regained consciousness both girls stopped writhing and stared viciously at each other, their eyes saying more than their mouths ever could. Moments of intense wordless hatred ticked over the two growling girls until Asuka noticed something that had been scrawled across what was left of the wall at the far side of the room.

Written in a glittery pink were the words; 'No fighting! Xiaoyu <3'.

As Asuka read the words and felt her blood boil she heard Lili's gagged mouth explode with an offended scream.

On the other side of the room, scrawled across another broken wall, written in a deep pink were the words; 'Hug and be friends! Xiaoyu <3'.

Both Lili and Asuka lay bound and gagged together, semi naked with their bodies too close for comfort, their eyes locked together in hatred for one another and their minds seething with rage of how Xiaoyu had left them. Without saying a word both of the girls agreed that once they were free, Xiaoyu would get what was coming to her...
