While this contains interactions between the Kazama family and Lei family, the main focus will be of how the two daughters of the families bonded, and started a rivalry with each other. And how the rivalry has grown and reached to how it is in present time.
It all started with a simple martial arts tournament only allowing 12 to 14 year olds compete. It was the Grand Finals, the final two competitors eyed each other for the first time on the matted space. Their parents and other spectators, including Lar's wife Naomi and his daughter Ikari, watched from seats and also stood from the sidelines.

Li-Mei looked focused and ready as she performed some Tai Chi warm-ups. Lei stood on the sidelines as her coach. Lei was most proud and amazed at his daughter making it this far. All these years of training have finally paid off. Li-Mei was ready to rise above the odds and prove to her ancestors that she is worthy of the Lei family name.
Lei was also pretty excited to see what Jin snd Xiao's precious daughter could do.

Nesta was doing the same, doing warm up techniques taught by her father and mother, like Jin's signature taunt/stance.
Jin was proud of his daughter, he and Xiao only started training her this year and she's already made it to the grand finals of her first tournament. She seemed to be a prodigy, carrying Jin's blood in her veins. As the referee came to the middle of the matted arena Jin went to his daughter, "You'll be fine, just focus and don't lose sight of your goal. Stay calm." He said to her with a comforting smile and a kiss on her forehead.
The referee said for both fighters to get into their fighting positions, and they both did, with Nesta entering a position similar to her father's.

Xiao was completely ecstatic to be attending her daughter's fighting tournament, it's been a long road getting here but she finally made it. All the countless hours of training brought her here and she couldn't be more thrilled. In the stands, Xiao was sitting with her youngest child, 10 year old Eiji. She was holding him on her lap so that he could have a good view of his sister, "Watch carefully Eiji, you will learn the things your sister is doing in a few years." Xiao said to her son before softly kissing his cheek. --- Eiji looked at his sister from the stands, he was in complete awe. Even though being 10 years old, Eiji knew that this was something that he wanted to do as he grew older. He was excited that in a few years, he would learn how to fight just like his sister!

"Fighters! Come to the center! No dirty moves or tricks allowed, or anything fatal. You may greet each other as you wish."
Nesta and Li Mei walked to the center, both still staring at each other. Nesta reached out her hand and greeted Li Mei. "My name is Nesta, what's yours?"

Li-Mei stepped into the ring, giving her opponent a respectful bow out of curteousy.
"I'm Lei Li-Mei, daughter of Lei Wulong. It is nice to meet you."
She looks at her opponent. "Don't hold anything back!"

"I would never!" She said. They stepped two steps away from each for spacing, and the referee said the two syllable word.
"FIGHT!"
Nesta immediately opened with a crouch dash, something extremely hard to do in continuum. She managed to catch Li Mei off guard with her speed and hit her abdomen with a strong body mid kick.

Xiao and Eiji braced themselves as they watched the battle between Nesta and Li-Mei ensue. Xiao couldn't express how excited she was for Nesta!
It'll only be a matter of time before the same will be said about Eiji. With the Kazama blood flowing through his veins too, Xiao knew that Eiji would learn quickly, just like his sister!

Li-Mei observed her opponent's moves and watched carefully. She saw her opponent go in for a dash. She ducks, but took a hit, expecting an uppercut. She gets flung onto the ground.
"OUCH! That's gotta'a leave a mark!" Shenlong says to his mom, who was 11 at the time along with his twin.
Li-Mei gets up, smiling. "I was looking for a challenge!"
Li-Mei sends in an elbow, and jabs Nesta with her two fingers, finally ending the string with a backflip kick and stands on one leg, perching like a crane. [Lei Gong Elbow to Flip Flop to Crane Stance]

Although she wasn't particularly a master with it, she managed to parry the final flip of the string learned from Jin. But she was still hit from the first two moves.
As she saw Li-Mei enter into a stance she saw that is a good choice to use the Kazama five string taught to her be father, but she had added something to it.
As she got closer she started the string, and ended it with one of Xiayou's moves, using both hands to hit upward in a windmill like fashion. (Kazama Five String into Xiao WS 1,2)

Xiao cheered her daughter on from the stands, it was such a surreal moment for her, watching her little baby work so hard and it finally paid off.
As much as she wanted to cheer and do cartwheels, Xiao had to remain quiet. Fighting was about concentration, any wrong sound can throw even the most disciplined fighter off track.

Li-Mei tries to block the punch with her leg, but she was hit in the face by a heel to her chin. She instantly lost balance before being sent into the air. She falls and lands on her back, but she's okay. She's tougher than that.
I can always bribe her with cookies and ice cream if things get too bad... Lei thought.
Li-Mei then ducks to avoid anymore launching strikes, as she pounces on the ground like a panther waiting for its prey. [Panther Stance]

Nesta got hit by the combo and immediately got back up to see Li in a panther stance. Even though she wasn't use to it, she threw her entire body legs first onto where Li Mei was. Jin's (3, 4)

Xiao cringed a little when her daughter was hit by the combo, it looked like it was a rough hit. But, she knew that her daughter could handle it.
She's a Kazama!
Xiao and Eiji continued to watch the fight, anticipating the next move.

Li-Mei hops backward to avoid the attack. Once her opponent was on the ground she hops on top of her [Panther's Pounce]. She made sure not to step on her too hard, but she was pretty gentle about it. She hops off and remains in this stance, ready for her opponent's next move, waiting for her to get up before doing anything. Her dad's style was tricky, and it was even trickier to learn. She can't even do the Drunken Master Walk yet. It requires her to master Panther, Tiger, and Dragon Style before moving into the Drunken Monkey Style. That would be her end goal. Lei did promise her that if she won, he would teach her Drunken Boxing.
