Mel Masters and Rock Howard
--This Post will contain updates for all animations--
--Please allow me to start posting things up so you wont get lost in this thread of whats going on--
--Thank you--
Sprite Work
Mel and Rock are high resolution characters. Its sized up to be at Guilty Gear characters though as we know Blaze Blue has a higher resolution for their characters
Too bad it didn't come out earlier. I would had considered making it that size to have more freedom with hand drawn animations though Mel and Rock sprites are all drawn on the computer. No scanned images.
Time Line
This is an out look of my own time line and doesn’t follow much of what Capcom has provided. We as fans know that Capcom hasn’t been consistent of the Street Fighter story along with its characters.

Story
In Game Story Line:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
Scene: Mel is sitting on the ground, tired.
Scene: Sean extends his arm to him, “nice workout, eh?”
Scene: Mel swats his arm out of the way, “I’m sick of training with you!”
Scene: Mel gets up. You can see Eliza and Guile in the Dojo and Mel screams out, “I want to train with my FATHER!” You see Mel running out of the Dojo. Eliza looks towards Mel with a worried face.
Scene: Guile turns to Eliza, “This isn’t right. Ever since Ken disappeared Mel has been miserable.” Sean looks to Guile, “Well he misses his father.” Eliza looks down with a sadden face, “We both do. I wish I knew what has happen to him.” Guile lifts his hand to his chin, “What do you think of Mel going camping being that tomorrow is his last day of school? It would help him clear his head a bit.” Eliza looks at Guile worried, “I hope so….”
Scene: Guile enters Mel’s Room. Mel is sitting on his bed looking at an old picture of his father and his uncle, Ryu when they were young as the TV is playing an old match that Ken attended to.
Guile looks at Mel, “Mel? would you like to go camping? I know that things have been hard for you since… Well you know… may be it would be good for you.”
Mel looks at Guile, “Where to?”
Guile shrugs his shoulders, “Do you have any where in mind that you would like to visit?”
Mel looks away Guile and looks at the picture that he is holding and lefts it up to Guile, “Here.”
Guile looks at Mel with a little discomfort, “Well then. That settles it. Pack up and I’ll pick you up from school tomorrow to take you straight to the airport.”
Scene: Guile walks off as Mel stares into the picture once again. The picture is being zoomed in and fades away.
Scene: The next day, you see Mel at school attending his last period of the day (gym). His couch (Sakura) is introducing a late transferred student that goes by the name of Rock Howard. Mel looks at Rock as his eyes are focus on him. Rock looks back and smiles.
The scenery fades
Scene: You see Mel exiting his school with his backpack on. Suddenly a backpack is thrown at his feet. Mel looks at the direction from where the backpack was thrown and notices Rock grinning at him.
Rock: “So Ken is your father, huh?”
Someone shouts, “Mel!” He looks over and notices Guile in a Jeep.
Guile shouts out, “Let’s go Mel! We don’t want to be late. It’s a long flight to Japan. Guile looks over to Rock, “Hey kid! Give my regards to Terry for me.”
Scene: Mel looks at Rock once more and runs off to the Jeep.
Mel looks at Guile with wonder, “Uncle, how do you know that kid?”
Guile looks over to Rock and responds, “His father, Terry, is an old opponent and good friend.
Scenery fades out with Rock looking onward to them grinning.
The Scenery fades in with a helicopter hovers low to the ground. Mel jumps out of the helicopter. Guile throws Mel’s back pack to him and tosses him a cell phone.
Guile: “Call me if you need anything, I will be back in two months to take you back home. Be safe"
Guile smiles as the helicopter pulls back. The pilot turns to him.
Pilot: "Will the kid be alright here alone?"
Guile: "He is made out of tough stuff, he can handle it."
The camera cuts to Me Looking up at the broken Dojo. He notices that its getting dark fast and so, he starts to set up his tent and decides to sleep and start explore the Dojo in the morning. As Mel falls asleep he slips into an uncontrollable dark dream. In his dream he sees a dark shading lurking in the mist and was woken up in a startled by these red dead eyes.
Mel: “What the…”
Mel rubs his eyes to bring it back to focus and notices a blue glowing light outside of his tent. Mel gets out of the tent and he follows the bright light which makes him look up towards the Dojo’s roof. He sees unknown figure standing there looking down at him. In shock, Mel rubs his eyes in doubt and when he looked on ward, the person disappeared. The glow that remained was just the glow of a full moon. He walks closer to the Dojo and looks up, and then looks towards the entrance.
Mel: “Master Gouken?”
With no one there to respond to him he knees down with a sadden emotion and looks down to the ground.
Mel: “I… My father and uncle use to tell me stories about you. Ken and Ryu use to train under you. I wish I could do the same.”
Mel is still looking down and he notices the glow coming back and feels a light touch on his right shoulder. He looks up and sees man with his left hand touching Mel’s right shoulder.
Scene fades away with Mel looking at this unkown person.
The next cut scenes you see Mel training. Punching trees, doing push ups, lifting rocks, and doing other creative exercises while this mysterious sprite looks over Mel. Two months have passed and Mel takes it easy for his last night at the Dojo. You see mysterious man sitting down next to a tree shinning in strange ora. Mel is standing and front of him and says:
Unknown: “Always remember, the fist is not only used for destruction, but to protect yourself and the ones you love.”
The man vanishes and you Mel bowing . The next day a helicopter lowers down and you see Guile extending his hand to Mel. Mel takes his hand a pulls himself up.
Guile: “So how was it?”
Mel: “Great.”
Guile face changed into wonder knowing that there was something different about Mel.
Scenery cuts back to Ken’s Dojo and you see Sean huffing and puffing.
Sean: “Wow Mel, you sure have improved”
Someone walks into the dojo. Sean and Mel looks towards the entrance and there stood Rock.
Rock: “I heard your father was missing and I think I have information of his where abouts… But if you want it, you need to challenge me and win”
Mel: “Hehehe, been waiting for this”
Cut scenes shows Mel and Rock fighting, but neither of the two won. It was an even match. In exaction they carried out the conversation of his father.
Rock: “Not bad, you live up to you fathers name. My father talked about Ken and recently he kind of ran into him.”
Mel: “Really?”
Rock: “But he said that for some reason, Ken just attacked him for no reason and ran off.”
Sean: “At least we know he is still alive, wish he ran into Ryu.”
Guile storms into the Dojo
Guile: “Mel, let’s go! I just got a phone call from Chun-li. They ran into Ken.”
Rock and Mel get up from the floor.
Mel: “Thank you Rock.”
He starts to run towards Guile.
Rock: “Wait! I’ll come with you”
And thus their mission begins.
