Ken and Ryu, having helped smash an international drug smuggling ring in Thailand, traveled to Barcelona to accept an award from Interpol. Along with Chun Li, they watched the feats of the renowned matador, Vega. Vega killed a bull, and cut one of its ears off. He presented this to Chun Li as proof of his victory, calling it a matador's token of affection to a woman he loves.
But no one knew just how obsessed Vega had become with Chun Li. He crept into her room and stole a kiss from her, putting her under his spell. Vega then invited her and Ken to his castle, where he challenged Ken to a death match. Performing a ritual to make them blood brothers, a long and bloody battle ensured.
Ken eventually used his sho ryu ken technique, which defeated Vega. Chun Li was freed from Vega's spell, and saw to the badly injured Ken. But they were not aware that the fight had been watched by the Shadowlaw leader, Bison.
Meanwhile, Cammy, the beautiful and mysterious assassin, agreed to kill Dorai when she was told he was an Interpol agent gone bad. Knocking him off his hotel room's balcony, Dorai's death seemed certain. And like her father, Chun Li also fell into Bison's sinister plans.
Chun Li was no match for Bison, and she was choked by him. Ken, who had been injected with something, woke up and saw Chun Li seemingly die, before passing out again. He and Chun Li were taken to Bison's private island, where Ryu was also taken. Bison, having seen Ryu use his hadou ken technique, challenged Ryu to a fight.
Ryu tried to use the hadou ken, but Bison used his psycho power. Ryu lost control of his ki, causing the hadou ken to explode in his hands. Meanwhile, Ken woke up, and found himself chained down. Managing to control ki himself, he caused an explosion which destroyed the chains. He then used the hadou to create a new technique, the hadou sho ryu ken. Using this move, he destroyed the ceiling to his cell, and escaped from the fortress.
Bison walks past Ryu, and sees that the cyberchip is still on his head. He then looks forward, towards the statue of an eagle's head. He walks up to it.
He outstretches one of his arms, and the eagle head starts to slow, pulsating with a strange energy.
Bison collects this energy, seemingly transferring it into himself. Ryu opens his eyes, and watches Bison continue to gather his psycho power.
Outside the fortress, Guile and Nash wait near some bushes. Guile says he can see some guards, and bets this is the place. Nash says this has to be Shadowlaw's headquarters.
At the hospital, Barrac takes Fei Long to where Dorai has been moved to. Fei Long is devastated to see what's happened to Dorai, and Barrac says he was marked for assassination by Shadowlaw. He explains that Shadowlaw is a crime syndicate so powerful its influence extends to almost every part of the world. He had appointed Dorai to lead the investigation into Shadowlaw yesterday, but he was attacked yesterday in his hotel room. Fei Long asks about Chun Li, but Barrac reveals she, along with Ken and Ryu, have been missing since last night. He believes they were somehow captured by Shadowlaw, and also believes that Shadowlaw has managed to position its spies in the upper ranks of their Interpol agents. If they learn Dorai is still alive, they'll definitely be back to finish him off -they can't afford any loose ends. Barrac says he can't let that happen, and Fei Long says he can't just stand here and let Shadowlaw get away with it.
Barrac says he'll protect Dorai, but he wants Fei Long's help. He says that the doctors have said Dorai's condition is too delicate for him to be moved. And if they do have a Shadowlaw spy in Interpol, he could jeopardize Dorai's life if he tries to bring in any of his own agents to protect him. For the time being, the two of them are the only ones who can be trusted to watch over Dorai. Fei Long says he'd give his life to protect him.
At the lobby, Balrog asks a nurse where Barrac is. The nurse asks for ID, and as Balrog provides it, she recalls what Barrac said to her earlier: if anyone asks for him or Dorai, she needs to find out who they are and inform him at once. The nurse asks Balrog to take a seat, and she'll see if she can find him.
Balrog walks off and hides around a corner. He calls Cammy, and tells her to get over to the Veronica Piana hospital, as they've got trouble. Cammy asks what went wrong, but Balrog doesn't know for sure. He just does know something is very strange. Cammy says she'll be there.
Balrog goes further into the hospital, but then hears someone behind a door. He hides around the corner, and watches as Barrac leaves. He thinks that if Dorai is alive, that room must be where they're keeping him.
Cammy then suddenly appears, and hopes he has a very good reason for calling her out here. He says her target has managed to survive, and somehow he doubts she wants word to spread that she managed to blow a hit. Cammy thinks this whole job is starting to stink, as why is the chief of Interpol sneaking around like this, and why is Balrog watching him? She understood that Barrac was the one who gave the order to perform the hit. Balrog tells her all she needs to worry about is following his orders.
Cammy says that's fine, but warns that if she finds the information he gave her is false, he'll be her next hit. Balrog gets nervous.
At the fortress, Ken is trying to find a way back in. He comes across a strange sight: several small, black pyramids. Each one is individually numbered, and he thinks they look like graves.
He then sees an open grave, and hopes it's not for Chun Li. He then runs off, as he hears a door opening. He sees a guard pushing out what appears to be a coffin, so he runs up to him and knocks him out with one punch.
He looks inside it, and is thankful it's not Chun Li. He heads inside the fortress, wanting to find Chun Li and Ryu. But he hears something, and takes a look through into the next room.
He sees Chun Li, but she's fighting against a Shadowlaw soldier. He calls out to her, but she doesn't respond.
The soldier tries to attack her, but she avoids his attacks, and then hits back.
She then gets him into a hold, and starts choking him. Ken yells out to her to stop, but she doesn't respond, and continues to choke her opponent.
Ken has seen it -the unearthly light shining from the cyberchip on Chun Li's forehead. Soon he'll see it coming from Ryu as well. Ken's rage becomes so powerful that he summons his hadou sho ryu ken. But is there any way to return his friends to their senses? Be here for Street Fighter II V: Nightmare Reunion - An Anguished Cry, A Mind Sealed Away. Gonna burn some muscle!
