2 years later, a week after the Kazama Dojo incident. Nesta had chose to skip that week of school because of discomfort and stress. Today is Wednesday, the middle of the week.
Jin and Xiaoyu were taking Eiji to the Dojo to train him, as this was the beginning of his training. "Are you sure you'll be okay by yourself?" Jin asked his beloved daughter.
"Of course Dad I'll be fine. I promise." she said as she hugged her father. Xiaoyu and Eiji were already at the door waiting to leave. Eventually Nesta heard the door open and close downstairs, and there, she was alone. For the time being.

Lei, Helena, Micah, and the twins were all going to go see Jin and Xiaoyu. However, Li-Mei wasn't really all that interested. So rather, she decided to go see her friend, Nesta. Maybe for a rematch. She knocks on the door, waiting for an answer.

Nesta grunted in discomfort and pain as she looked out the window, seeing the snow fall down gently. Her arm felt like a million hot needles piercing through her skin, knitting it, and tearing it out repeatedly.
As she looked out the window she saw Li Mei, coming towards her house by herself, with of course normal winter clothes. Soon Nesta heard the follow up of her arrival, knocking.
Nesta was conflicted. She didn't want to let Li-Mei in simply because she didn't want to involve her in these issues, but she didn't want to keep her out as that would create more problems and most likely cause her to get involved anyway.
As Nesta walked down the stairs to let Li Mei in she stopped clutching her arm, committing all her effort to just seeming okay. She got to the door, and opened it, and was greeted with a more mature looking woman, rather than the teen those 2 years ago.
"Hey Li Mei, been a while since we've seen each other huh? Come in."

Li-Mei nods as she makes her way inside, taking off her scarf and sweater, in this nice warm home.
"Thanks. It's really cold outside. Japan's really cold isn't it? Where I'm from, it's always warm all-year round." She smiles.
"Doing okay?"

"Y-yeah, I'm doing fine! And yeah sorry about the weather, it usually doesn't turn out like this in this area. But it's beautiful to look at. Do you want me to make you some cocoa?" Nesta said as they walked further inside.

"Indeed, snowfall is beautiful. I like it. But it never snows in Hong-Kong." Li-Mei smiled.
She makes herself at home on a couch. "Yes, hot cocoa would be nice... real nice."

As Nesta started preparing the hot cocoa she went to turn the TV on for Li Mei, and what came on was a movie with Li-Mei's cousin Xianlong playing as the main character. It was one of her older movies, as this was an action film.
Nesta of course went back and waited for the hot cocoa to brew and warm as Li Mei watched her cousin on screen.

Once the TV was turned on, Li-Mei was surprised to see her cousin on the silver screen, but it shouldn't be too surprising since Xianlong did do a lot of movies.
"Hmm... what movie is this? Mission Impossible 5: Code Red."
Li-Mei liked watching her cousin's movies.
"Did you know that Cheyenne Long is my cousin?"

"She is?! I had no idea!" Nesta replied. "I'm actually a pretty big fan of hers..." Nesta said embarrassed.
The cocoa was finished and she carried both cups to the table in front of the couch and set one in front of Li-Mei. She had put small little marshmallows in the cocoa as well for them to enjoy. "My mom always makes them that way.. It always helps warm me up when I'm cold."

"Yep! In fact, she's trying to work on this awesome movie. When it comes out, it's gonna be epic!" Li-Mei cuffed her hands in excitement. "It's called The Phoenix, and she's gonna be like the protagonist in the movie!"
Finally, Nesta got the drink ready as Li-Mei couldn't help herself and take a nice sip of the drink.
"My mom always makes them that way.. It always helps warm me up when I'm cold."
"That's awesome..."

Nesta started to feel discomfort and pain in her arm, so she tried to excuse herself without making herself seem so easily in pain.
"Hey I gotta go upstairs right quick. I'll be back down I promise." Nesta said smiling. As she said this she left to her room upstairs.
As soon as she got upstairs and closed her door she started grunting in pain immediately. "Damnit why now...?!"

"Okay! But be back soon! You're gonna miss the best part!"
Li-Mei leaned back as she watched her cousin face off against a bunch of thugs, while Tom Cruise was helping out. It was just times like these that made her happy. It made her feel at peace and so happy. Just reminds her of those days she and her dad would watch movies together, or when they traveled to Cypress to meet Helena's parents. It was kind of sad that she never got to spend much time with her mom. Her mom was nice, but unlike her father, she was unmarried and alone and didn't make much money. Li-Mei wondered what would have happened if her parents stayed together and got married. Maybe she'd have a normal family, unlike this weird collection of step-siblings and step-moms, and all these step-people, and staying at two houses.

As Nesta held her arm she moved around the room, trying to ignore the pain. Eventually it subsided enough, and she decided to go back downstairs.
"Okay I'm back, did I miss anything?"

"Ethan Hunt jumped out of the window with Cheyenne, while they were being chased by the goons!"
Li-Mei shouted in excitement. "And they're about to land on a helicopter!"

"Oh! I remember this part!" Nesta said in excitement with her rival.
After about 5 minutes Nesta began to take one of her last sips of Cocoa, but all of sudden she dropped her glass mug on the floor and began to hold her arm and pain.
She began to moan and groan, obviously trying to resist. A semi-visible black aura is able to seen on her arm, where her gene mark is.
