Jun and Claudio ( Tekken 8 )

"Thank you for agreeing to listen to me, Claudio," Jun's voice carried an air of both vulnerability and determination. "To truly understand Kazuya, you must hear my story."

Claudio nodded, his curiosity piqued, eager to pierce through the enigma surrounding the Mishima bloodline. Jun composed herself, recounting the fateful moments that kindled Kazuya's love, despite the darkness that shadowed his soul.

"It was many years ago," Jun began, her voice laced with nostalgia. "We met during an intense battle, that was when our destinies intertwined by chance. It was there, amidst the chaos of the Second Iron Fist Tournament, that we felt an inexplicable connection. Kazuya's eyes, although hardened by his past, were carrying a flicker of warmth, longing for acceptance and light."

Claudio leaned forward, drawn deeper into the intricate tale Jun spun.

"Over the little time we had, our bond had deepened," Jun continued, a hint of melancholy shading her words. "We found solace in each other's arms, healing the wounds that etched upon our hearts. Kazuya yearned to shed the darkness, to break free from the clutches of the Mishima Curse. What many failed to grasp was that beneath the chaos, love had flourished between us."

Claudio's belief systems were shaken to their core. Until now, he had seen Kazuya as a formidable adversary, a symbol of unchecked power, evil and violence. But Jun's words painted an entirely different picture—a man longing for salvation, and a love powerful enough to ignite change.

Seeing Claudio's contemplative expression, Jun clasped both of his hands, her eyes bearing the weight of a thousand emotions. "I beseech you, Claudio, do not view Kazuya through the lens of hatred. Try to see him as I do—as a soul longing to be loved. His path has been fraught with suffering, and it is love that can guide him towards salvation."

Claudio absorbed Jun's words, her heartfelt plea striking a chord within him. A newfound determination bloomed within his heart, as he vowed to himself to play a role in Kazuya's soul deliverance. He realized that by saving Kazuya, he may not only repay his debt to the young Ling Xiaoyu but also unlock the keys to a brighter future for the world itself.
