<b>Dreaming Alone<br>
-</b>Chapter 2-<i><b><br>
</b></i><b><u>Invitation To Faraway Lands</u></b><p>Julia awoke the next
morning. She somehow didn't feel right. Then it hit her- a huge spasm of
pain, she was to be...<i>given away</i>...Well she didn't like to think like
that but that's how it felt. She was looking in the mirror when she noticed
something, obviously she saw herself everyday to do her hair and all but
this time she just looked and took some time to study her face. She wasn't
that little child no more, sure she was 18, but still, she looked and felt
older. Why? She hated to answer it, but yes, she was going to marry a
stranger, someone she hadn't met ever in her life. Why? She asked herself,
but then the answer soon followed by Michelle's voice...that's why.<br>
<br>
As Julia was walking to do the shopping for the day, she saw a lot of boys,
they all felt stranger's to her now, she could not bring herself to talk to
them. As soon as the shopping was done she rushed onto the computer in the
hopes of that her friend Xiaoyu was there.<br>

<br>
&quot;Dad, I'm home!&quot; Jin called as he came home from his final day of school.<br>
Jin Kazama had a powerful build, yet there was a mildness about his eyes and
mouth that claimed no devil. He was back from his final day of school, and
the buoyant expression showed that it was his <i>final</i> day of real
education.<br>
<br>
&quot;Son! I have excellent news, I've just booked 3 pairs of tickets for a tour
of Europe, so you and 2 mates can go!&quot; Kazuya cart wheeled into the room.<br>
<br>
Jin folded his arms against his chest and frowned.<br>
<br>
&quot;Dad...Please sit down...the right way up, I need to talk,&quot; Jin sighed shook
his head, sometimes he wondered who the son was and who the father was. Ever
since Kazuya had handed over the zaibatsu to a co-manager and had less work
and more time to learn the world- he'd changed. <i>Completely</i>.<br>
<br>
&quot;Oh, alright,&quot; Kazuya pouted- but then dived onto the sofa and sat
down...normally.<br>
<br>
&quot;Oh, also, cancel the tickets. I don't want to go to Europe, I've lived my
youth and need to take care of business,&quot; Jin reported carelessly.<br>
<br>
&quot;WHAT!?&quot; Kazuya crowed aghast. &quot;You think you've lived you're youth then
live <i>mine</i>! I made this business for your pleasure, so YOU Jin Kazama,
could live like I never have! Please...&quot;<br>
<br>
&quot;Dad...not the <i>lip</i> thing!&quot; Jin sighed, his pale fingers rushing to
his raven bangs for Kazuya's bottom lip was tremling.<br>
<br>
There was an empty silence, then finally Jin nodded awkwardly. He didn't
ever understand until now why his father was so childish, because once your
an adult you can never turn back. Jin smiled, his father still had the inner
child within him.<br>
<br>
He dialed a number and invited Law and Paul to accompany him on the Europe
trip.<br>
<br>

<br>
Julia was browsing around reading fan fiction until finally, after two hours
Xiaoyu came online. <i>&quot;Yes!&quot;</i>&nbsp; thought Julia. Even though they lived
quite a fair distance, Xiaoyu was her best friend, she wished she was like
Xiaoyu.<br>
<br>
On web cam she saw the sleek black hair of Ling in two ponytails and she
couldn't make out her outfit but it seemed to be a Kimono. Her face was
glowing and she had a smile plastered onto her face. Julia sighed and told
her friend of her fate.<br>
<br>
<i>Arizonian Wolf says</i>-&quot;...Hi...&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>Fruit fly123 says</i>- &quot;HEY! So how have you been? Why haven't you been
online and oh my....&quot;<br>
<br>
Xiaoyu was finally taking the time to read the script that her friend had
typed.<br>
<br>
<i>Fruit fly123 says</i>-&quot;Is it true? You are getting married?&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>Arizonian Wolf says</i>- &quot;Yeah...&quot;</p>
<p><i>Fruit fly123 has changed his/her name to MY BEST MATE IS GETTING
MARRIED.</i><br>
<br>
<i>MY BEST MATE IS GETTING MARRIED says</i>- &quot;Is he beautiful? What does he
look like, what does he act like?&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>Arizonian Wolf says</i>- &quot;um...they didn't send a photo but dad informed
they say he is handsome, and I don't really know his personality...he is
Korean and that's all I know...&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>MY BEST MATE IS GETTING MARRIED says</i>- &quot;You mean? You don't even KNOW
WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE?......sorry about the caps ^-^&quot;</p>
<p><i>MY BEST MATE IS GETTING MARRIED has change his her name to MY BEST
MATE IS GETTING MARRIED TO A MORON.</i><br>
<br>
<i>Arizonian Wolf says</i>- &quot;well...I don't go for looks...&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>MY BEST MATE IS GETTING MARRIED TO A MORON says</i>- &quot;I mean he can have
carnivorous teeth and nails like talons...&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>Arizonian Wolf says</i>- &quot;Nails can be cut and teeth could be taken out
but....habit's can't easily be forgotten...&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>MY BEST MATE IS GETTING MARRIED TO A MORON says</i>- &quot;Oh...sorry. I'm
sure he is the ONE you dream about 'k? ^-^ Also I have really good news! I
got some tickets for Europe and I asked the Williams sisters if they wanted
to come and they agreed...I have one specially for you Jewels! Say yes and
it will give me a huge smile like this ^____________^&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>Arizonian Wolf says</i>- &quot;Father might...&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>MY BEST MATE IS GETTING MARRIED TO A MORON says</i>- &quot;Oh, forget about
that gasbag! He ruins your life! (sorry about the name-calling)&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>Arizonian Wolf says</i>- &quot;I'll have to ask...&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>MY BEST MATE IS GETTING MARRIED TO A MORON says</i>- &quot;Eeh sheesh, you
should learn to be independent ya know! Like me! The only place you probably
can go to by yourself is the library!&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>Arizonian Wolf</i>- &quot;Please don't be angry, I'll persuade him
somehow....just give me time. I CAN be independent!&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>MY BEST MATE IS GETTING MARRIED TO A MORON says</i>- &quot;Ok I believe some
of my teachings got into you :) I have to go now, see you at London
airport!&quot;<br>
<br>
<i>Arizonian Wolf says</i>- &quot;Hopefully- take care-Bye!&quot;<br>
<br>
That was their pretty <i>long</i> conversation. How was Julia going to
persuade her father? He wouldn't let her go to parties around the block, but
Europe? She had to try though, she just wanted to go. Live her own life for
once, be independent like Xiaoyu had said.<br>
<br>
&quot;Please let dad be in a good mood when he comes home!&quot; Julia pleaded to the
fates.</span></div>
