Description: Fatal Fury 2: The New Battle
Fatal Fury 2 starts with a man named Wolfgang Krauser, who is Geese Howard's half-brother. Wolfgang visits Geese to find out who had defeated him. Geese names Terry Bogard.
Terry has been working at a dock and had just met a little kid named Tony when, moments later, a man named Kim Kaphuwan showed up. He wanted to meet the guy who defeated Geese. Kim challenged Terry to a battle, which Terry won by using his final attack, The Hurrican Punch (Sen Po Kin). Kim was launched in the water, and Terry jumped in to save him. Kim thanked him for saving his life and went back to his homeland to do more training, so that he may beat Terry the next time they meet.
After that fight, Terry encountered Krauser in a dark alley and challenged him to a fight. Terry attempts to use his Hurricane Punch on Krauser, but somehow Krauser copies the techinque and he uses it better and stronger than Terry. This leaves Terry half-dead. Krauser doesn't kill Terry only because Tony convinces him that Terry was not at full strength for the fight. So Krauser tells Tony to have Terry meet Krauser at his castle.
Terry awakes in Tony's house. He takes a train to another city, with Tony following him even though Tony tells him not to. Once in the city, Terry starts to drink, becomming drunk.
Meanwhile, Andy is at a dojo in the mountains, training himself. There he sees Mai Shiranui, who has a giant crush on Andy. There, Joe Higashi tells Andy that Terry lost a fight and has gone underground. Joe and Andy ask Master Jubei if he has ever heard of Krauser, and how Drauser could have beaten Terry. Master Jubei tells them that Wolfgang Krauser is one of the strongest fighters in the world, and that he's not surpised that Krauser defeated Terry. So Andy decides to take on Krauser, but Master Jubei won't allow it. If Andy wants to fight Krauser, he has to get past Master Jubei first. The two of them fight if out, with Andy being the victor. Master Jubei has Mai follow Andy and do whatever it takes to stop him from fighting Krauser. When they arrive at the airport, Joe decides to go look for Terry while Andy and Mai head off to Germany to look for Krauser. Joe finds Terry drunk and in jail for fighting, and informs him that Andy has gone to fight Krauser. Terry tells Joe not to let Andy fight Krauser or he'll die. Joe doesn't listen and leaves.
In Germany, Mai and Andy find Krauser's castle. The man Krauser left to guard his affairs spys Mai and Andy looking around. He confronts Mai when she is alone, and challenges her to a fight. She accepts. Mai lands one good hit on him, but in the end the victory escapes her. Andy finds Mai all tied up, and when he does he quickly kicks the guy's ass and unties Mai (I think this is where they fall in love).
By this time Terry is out of jail, although still drunk. He goes to a bar and gets challenged to a fight by a grown man. He accepts, and gets the crap beat out of him. The guy tells his friend to beat up the kid, which prompts Terry to get out of his drunken state and kick the guy ass. Althought he has now regained his speed and strength, he still isn't strong enougth to beat Krauser.
Now Joe is also after Krauser. Their fight doesn't last long, and ends up landing Joe in the hospital. Terry gets to Joe, and Joe tells him to meet Andy at "the regular place". They meet at the graveyard. There they begin fighting each other, since they have to be ruthless in order to defeat Krauser. They have a long and good fight, with the end marked by a new move from Terry.
Now it's time to take on Krauser. Terry visits Krauser's castle, and the showdown begins. After a long and tiresome battle, Terry eventually overcomes. Krauser, finally admitting defeat, throws himself into the lake.
