(Athena Asamiya)
 
Athena, Sie Kensou
Kensou Woah! As usual, what a magnificent number!
Up to this point, letters were scarce for the young two, a mere means of communication with the outer world, things have changed.
Whenever Chin heads for town, he always returns with bags filled with letters lately.
Athena Ever since we entered last year's KOF tournament, we always get these piles of letters.
Kensou But of course! Since the world saw our courageous fighting on TV last year...!
Chin But there's not one letter for you as usual, Kensou...
Kensou A-ha! But Master Chin! I get quite a few myself too!
Chin Are you happy counting threatening letters from Athena fans and ones with paper blades included with the letter?
Kensou ...well...
Kensou sat in the corner of the room, pouting.
Kensou ...First of all, even Master gets letters... why am I the only one getting letters like 'Stay away from Athena' written all over them... mumble mumble...
Chin Gah, he's into his self-talking mode again! We'll have to leave him alone for a while...
Ignoring Kensou's childish actions, Athena continued to read the letters.
Athena Hm? Kensou, here's one for you from a girl...
Kensou Mumble mumble...what? A girl? YES A letter from a girl, a GIRL!
Kensou hopped over to Athena and received the letter with overflowing joy. And reading the message flashed a broad grin; hard to belive from his actions from just moments ago.
Chin But... I didn't have you two participate in the tournaments to become famous like this...
Kensou We hear ya loud and clear, Master.
Athena Yes, we know, Master.
Chin I hope so...
What a complex situation for the master. The two indeed are training hard after the tournament; even harder than before, it seems. But it is their youth that he was worrying about. If this popularity keeps up, the children might get the wrong idea...
Kensou By the way, haven't the KOF invitations arrived yet?
Chin I was thinking about the tournament... and I'm thinking of not entering this year.
Athena Why do you say that, Master?
Chin Last year, you two entered with your wills, and I agreed. Indeed you did far better with your fighting than I ever expected and praising you won't be enough to show my pride for teaching you two.
Kensou Then, can't we enter this year too and see how much we've improved?
Chin But last year's tournament was too big for you two, and the people around us are getting restless...
Athena Indeed. It's the same with these stiacks of letters, but we also got several TV interviews and stuff after that.
Chin I want to let you two train and grow in a quiet, calm environment. And as I say this again, your powers are to be kept away until the appointed day comes for you to fight evil. So I don't think this excess exposure is doing you any good.
Kensou Well, I see. If Master's been thinking about this so seriously, we don't have to enter, really.
Athena Yes, we should practice harder, and that should be our priority for now.
Chin I'm glad you two understand...
Or so they said so in front of Chin, but it is also true that the two youths were looking forward for this once-a-year event where they can leave the temple they train all year at and see the world. Seeing their sad faces, Chin felt a tiny pain from the guilt.
That evening. The day's training has ended, and the three were spending their time in their leisure. Chin went into the woods for a walk, and the two sat in their rooms reading their letters. And it was one of these letters that caught Athena's attention. After reading the message from a girl about her age, she hesitantly showed it to Kensou.
Kensou Hmm.... so, there are people like this, eh?
Athena I'm talking to Master about this.
Kensou Huh? Hey, wait up Athena...
The two dashed to Chin, who has returned from his walk.
Athena I would like to talk with you, dear Master.
Chin Hm? What's with the formal tone, Athena?
Athena I was thinking about many things, and I thought we should enter the King of Fighters tournament after all.
She handed Chin the letter.
Kaoru I'm writing to you for the first time, and am overjoyed to make the acquaintance, Miss Asamiya. I've become a fan of yours since I watched you fight in the last KOF tournaments. I have an illness that has robbed from me my ability to walk, and I've become very afraid to go outside, and am now not attending school. One day when I casually flipped the TV on, a girl my age was fighting in the screen. I learned later that that was Asamiya san. Seeing you get up again and again after falling several times really gave me courage. Watching you, I thought to myself, 'I can't be like this' and I worked hard after that, and I was able to enter highschool this spring. This is all thanks to you, Asamiya san. And I thank you from the bottom of my heart. By the way, are you entering the tournament this year too? If you are, I was thinking of going to one of the tournaments. And good luck!
Athena Reading this letter, I realized that our fighting can be a source of courage for others. Our powers are for helping people, right? Do you think by entering the tournament, this will be of some aid for people as well, Master?
Kensou Just practicing won't save anyone. But if we encourage others by fighting, I think we should do it.
After waiting for Chin to read the letter, Kensou confessed his honest ideas on the matter.
Chin Hmmmmmmmm...
Athena And about the training...even if we go to a foreign place, if we continue our training with strong minds, I don't see any problems.
Kensou I totallly agree!
Chin I see. With such strong wills, I believe you can win at the tournament.
Athena Huh? Then you mean... Master?
Chin Moving with your own will is always a great thing. There is no right for me, as your master, to quench away that will. And it seems you two understand what you are to do. I have nothing to object against.
Kensou, Athena Thank you, master!
Kensou OK! This time, I'll fight hard so I can get more fan letters!
Athena For crying out loud, that's not our motive, remember!?
Chin Now I think I made a wrong decision...
Kensou Lighten up, Master, it's only a joke!
Chin Really?
Chin stared at Kensou with questioning eyes.
Kensou O, of course! Right, Athena!?
Athena I'm not sure about that.
Kensou What? You don't believe me either!?
Joyous laughter filled the sunset sky. And in the midst of the giggles, Chin thought to himself....
Chin I guess they've proved to me that it's meaningless of worrying... their wills are stronger than I expected. They've grown so much in these past years... No wonder I grow old... Well, I should sit back and see how much they've learned form training. I just hope strange happenings don't occur like last year...
Athena Asamiya | 94 | 95 | 96 | 97 | 98 | 99 | 00 | 01 |
Athena is the re-incarnation of the Greek goddess by the same name. However she acts just like a normal girl, going to school, shopping, and indulging in her love of music. She originally joined the King of Fighters tournament sensing an evil aura surrounding the tournament, but since then has also entered to publicize her singing career. In any event, she enjoys her role as a justice fighter. (read bio)

Sie Kensou | 94 | 95 | 96 | 97 | 98 | 99 | 00 | 01 |
Kensou is not a natural psychic, instead he awakened his powers through vigorous training. Though he struggled hard to maintain his psychic powers, over time they began to dissipate, causing him frustration at the thought of being helpless. Following the addition of Bao to the Psycho Soldiers, Kensou has regained his abilities using an increasing power inside his body from an unknown origin. (read bio)

Beneath the deteriorated physique, beyond the drinking habit, and despite displaying no overt psychic power mastery, Chin is a very knowledgable teacher of telepathy and the supernatural. His prized student Athena approached him with an invitation to a tournament she had an eerie inkling about. Chin shares the same intuition and so they investigate the underlying evil power that may be. (read bio)

First Intermission
Announcer Satella News Network! The team has been decided for the 4th match! Let's give them a big cheer! Now, let the carnage begin! The next competitor! Match 4 begins!

Second Intermission
Iori A victory ceremony? What a bunch of nonsense! Wah! What...!? It looks like Orochi is mixed up in this contest. Gyah! My blood boils! Don't mess with me, Orochi! You can't conquer me! Gggggyaaaaaaah!
Announcer Congratulations, victors!
Chin I whiff evil's aroma!
Announcer Now for the next match!
Kensou What the...?
Athena Whoa! It's Iori Yagami!
Chin Watch out everybody! That guy's over the top!
Iori Goooaaaaah!

Defeat of Orochi Iori
Kensou What's going on here!?
Chin Yikes!
Yashiro The Orochi Blood Riot!?
Athena It rings in my brain!
Yashiro An interesting performance for a sideshow.
Athena Who in the...!? You guys are... Orochi!?
Chin Holy Feng Shui! You've got some bad evil vibes!
Yashiro Surprised? It's to be expected.
Shermie We're not that dumb, to be sensed by you. You psychic psychos!
Chin Why you!
Kensou What are you scheming?
Yashiro Us? Scheming? You've done it all for us!
Athena Us? What do you mean?
Yashiro The Orochi awakening. It's Goenitz's success! To energize the awakening, we needed your energy.
Kensou Our energy?
Yashiro You got it! And the place to increase power in such a short time was our job, but it was a breeze.
Shermie A place where the mighty clash! I think you get the picture!
Chin I got it! These guys, they used the King of Fighters for their vile purposes!
Yashiro You fought frantically and, thanks to you, the Orochi received enough energy to awake!
Shermie We just livened things up. Good idea, don't you think?
Chin Geez, I feel so used!
Yashiro And it went so easily! But we need a bit more, so we're gonna kick your butts!
Athena Hah! Guess again!
Yashiro Even if you win, a living hell awaits you!

Defeat of Orochi New Faces Team
Yashiro Well fought! We had a blast! But, sadly, it was all in vain!
Athena Ah!
Shermie It won't be long!
Kensou Soon!? You mean?
Chris The time is here. Those who can't hack it are headed for a long sleep!
Athena The Awakening!? You?
Chris O... ro... chi!
Yashiro Now, we fulfill Orochi's will!
Chin Orochi's will, you say!?
Shermie Yup! The end of the world! It's our only wish!
Athena But, why?
Kensou You won't get away with it!
Orochi You fleas can't beat me! I know your thoughts; know what you'll do. You can't defeat me! Your minds are open books!
Kensou Hah! It's a fluke!
Orochi I read not only your minds, I know what all humans think. Nothing's changed in 1800 years. You can't be saved. Now all returns to 'nothing.'
Athena No way, weirdo!

Defeat of Orochi
Orochi Ignorant mortals! All these 1800 years, why struggle against me? Continue this way of living and you'll destroy yourselves?
Athena There's no way we'll lose. There may be not turning back... realize you can't defeat us!
Orochi Hmph... To believe a human, there's a first for everything.
Chin What's this?
Athena Kensou! Master! It's coming for us!
Kensou What is it!? Whaaaa!
Chin W, where are we?
Orochi Nowhere...
Athena Ah! You mean?
Orochi Not that. I return to my sleep. For now, the dimensions bend.
Chin Did you say sleep?
Orochi For ten, a hundred years, you have a chance. I look forward to it.
Athena We'll be waiting for you!
Kensou Huh!
Clark Quite a trip!
Kensou It's over?
Athena For now, huh?
Chin For now, yes. After tens, hundreds of years, if the Orochi awakens again, we humans may not be around. It's up to us from now on.
Athena We'll realize our folly. I'm sure of that!
Kensou Me, too, toots!

Kaoru Hey!
Kensou Yes?
Athena Who are you?
Kaoru I, I'm a fan, Kaoru Watabe. Thanks for the letter... and tickets.
Athena Oh! That Kaoru!
Kensou Who?
Athena You know. The kid who wrote the letter.
Kensou Oh, yeah! That was you? It sure pumped us up! But what tickets?
Kaoru In Athena's letter, tickets to your match! "Cheer for us!" you said.
Athena That's right. Master got the tickets. I sent them.
Chin Athena begged me for them.
Kensou These are for the finals. What if we lost midway?
Athena With Kaoru cheering us? There's no way we'd lose!
Chin Kaoru brought us this far.
Kaoru But thank you, everyone.
Chin No, you taught us all a lesson. To encourage and support people. It's we who thank you.
Kaoru No, no. Thank you.
Kensou Well, what did you think. Was it an interesting match?
Kaoru Yeah. It was super!
Kensou That's great!
Kaoru By the way, I've been training too.
Athena How?
Kaoru When I got out the hospital, the doctor said my leg was ok.
Chin But he said you couldn't walk! We heard you weren't trying.
Kaoru But I wanted to meet you. So I worked real hard.
Athena Wow! Great!
Kaoru Can I shake your hands?

Athena Kaoru...
Kaoru Aaah!
Athena Huh!
Kaoru Sorry, I...
Athena I, I'm okay.
Athena, Kaoru Ha, ha, ha!
Kensou Boo, hoo, hoo... Ignored completely.
Chin Sniff
Kensou Oh, well. Sniff.
