Jamie/Story

Story

Background

Jamie Siu was born in Hong Kong to a businessman father and a mother who he described as beautiful. Due to his parents frequently travelling aboard for business trips, they rarely spent their time together with him during his childhood. As a result, Jamie had become a delinquent and started picking up fights with others in his neighborhood, primarily due to his headstrong attitude against local hoodlums and gangsters, preferring to die rather than submit to them. At some point during his childhood, he developed a feud with then-fellow delinquent Luke.

One day, Jamie entered another fight with a local gang and ended up being badly beaten. He was then saved by the "Twin Dragons" Yun and Yang who then scolded Jamie for his reckless behavior. This incident was a "wake-up call" for Jamie to value his own life, as well as sparking his dream of becoming heroes just like them.

After learning about the incident as well as his delinquency, Jamie's parents sent him to live with his grandmother in the countryside, whom he loved greatly. There, Jamie's grandmother taught him various Chinese martial arts, including drunken fist style using her special herbal tea to make him "intoxicated". As he matured and returned to his hometown, Jamie combined drunken fist with his self-styled breakdancing into his own fighting style, and started his career as a vigilante in Metro City's Chinatown to follow Yun and Yang's footsteps.

Jamie: Peacekeeper

While walking through the Hong Hu Lu Chinatown area of Metro City, Jamie addresses his role models Yun & Yang in his narration. He assures them that, even in their absence from Metro City, life continues to run smoothly. Jamie introduces himself to the player as the "peacekeeper" of his hometown, taking care of those "lookin' to stir up trouble". Jamie's brief exchange with an audibly nervous gang member appears to support his reputation. Jamie explains that some people are "tryin' to cause problems", while others simply "just wanna prove how bad they are". As a result, he's eager to dutifully protect his hometown and with violence, if necessary.

While claiming that he is not too "full of [himself]", Jamie boasts about his own fighting prowess. He clarifies that he doesn't wish to be the strongest, akin to "some kid lookin' to be the king of the jungle gym", but trains out of determination to follow in Yun & Yang's footsteps.

As Jamie continues his stroll, he and Luke accidentally bump into each other. Luke breaks the tense silence by accusing Jamie of purposely running into him, enraging the latter. The two begin to fight.

The outcome of the match only escalates their quarreling. Jamie continues his narration, stating that he'll occasionally encounter someone who inexplicably makes his blood boil. Though he acknowledges Yun and Yang's presumed mocking from these actions, Jamie can't resist a childish scrap with someone he claims he "can't afford to lose to" (in this case, Luke).

As the cutscene ends by panning skyward, Jamie and Luke continue trash talking off-screen, their barbs devolving into schoolyard insults faintly heard in the distance.

Luke: Delinquent Turned Fighter

Jamie's appearance in Luke's Arcade mode mirrors his own story: the two fight after accidentally bumping into each other. Both refuse to apologize to the other, leading to squabbling and fisticuffs. Later, a cutscene reveals that Luke and Jamie have been fierce rivals since childhood.
