Kelton and Kimiko return to the Dog God's Den...

Kelton: I caught her for you...

Kimiko: What?! I did...

Kelton: Kimiko...why are you talking? I am trying to talk to my superior here.

Kimiko: Why...you!? RRGH!

Dog God: Good...and in exchange, here is the Flourescent Stone as you asked for.

 The Dog God handed him a necklace with a green crystal at the end of it. Kelton places it around his neck and the stone illuminates. A green aura surrounds Kelton's body...

Kimiko: (His power has spiked up exponentially!)

Kelton: (So...this is the power of the stone, huh?)

 The aura disappears and he smiles...

Kelton: Now, this is what I'm talking about...

Kimiko: ?!

Dog God: Thank you for doing business...

Kelton: Thank you as well, sir...Kimiko! Let's go!

Kimiko: Right!

 The two leave and return back to Noko Town, to the spot where Masaki and Taji were standing.

Masaki: Where the hell did you guys go to?

Kimiko: Oh, um...well...

Taji: Did you guys go on a date?

Kelton: Well, you could say that...

 Kimiko slaps Kelton in the face for his remark...

Kelton: Ouch!

Kimiko: Like I would ever!

Masaki: Well, anyway...while we were out, we found some information about Tarah.

Kelton: What?

Taji: It seems that they left the town after the building was destroyed...

Masaki: But check this out...just about an hour after they left, another town nearby was raided and robbed by "two unknown figures."

Kimiko: You think Tarah was one of them?

Kelton: And the other...was Adam!

Masaki: Maybe so...

Kimiko: So, what now, Kelton?

Kelton: We check the other town out and get more information on where they could have gone to!

Kimiko: Okay, let's go!

Jitama: Wait!

Masaki: ?!

 Suddenly, Team Heihachi appeared...

Jax: So, you joined up with this guy, Kimiko?

Kimiko: Listen, Jax...now is not the time to...

Heihachi: Jax is right, Kimiko! We can't afford to let him leave this town!

Kelton: Those who stop me from getting to Adam will be cut down! Do you want to be added to that list?

Jitama: We're not here to fight.

Kelton: Then, why are you here?

Kimiko: We're leaving and that's that. If you try to stop us, we will take you down!

Heihachi: You've turned that far, Kimiko?

Kimiko: This is something you wouldn't understand!

Kelton: I'm not the talking type...Let's go!

 Kelton leaps into action!

Jax: Heh! This is what I've been waiting for!

 Jax reveals his humongous mallet and charges at Kelton with it!

Kimiko: Kelton, stop!

Kelton: DRAGON-EYE TECHNIQUE: SHIATSU!!!

The orange and blue flame appear once more and burns the mallet to dust! Kelton then rushes at Jax! Jax then becomes terrified...

Jax:: Heihachi, HELP!!!

Kelton: DRAGON-EYE TECHNIQUE: SHINJ....

Suddenly, Heihachi restrains Kelton and Jax by binding them with wood!

Heihachi: That's enough! Both of you!!

Kimiko: Whew! That was close...

Kelton: ......SHINJIKU!!!!!!

 A large, demonic spirit created from green flames appear around Kelton's body and breaks the restriction!!

Jitama: That's the Shinjiku...but that would mean that he's...

Heihachi:: How do you have that technique? It's only known to Perralians and that tribe died out ten years ago, along with its leader, Tajima!

Kimiko: ?! (So...Kelton is...the last of his tribe?)

Kelton: That's right...my tribe was killed 10 years ago by Adam during the last Great War!

Heihachi: Wait?! So, you're a Perralian...

Kelton: That's right...Tajima was my father! If I remember correctly, I had three brothers as well. They all died out because of Adam's tyranny!

Jitama: So, that's why you want revenge?

Kelton: I'll tell you the truth about that day!
