Kasumi's Story:
Kasumi’s uncle Raidou, who had been banished from the clan years ago, returns to the Mugen Tenshin village to steal a secret move called the Torn Sky Blast. Hayate and Ayane fight Raidou and Hayate uses the torn sky blast in the fight, thus showing Raidou how it’s preformed. The fight ends with Raidou using the Torn Sky Blast and putting Hayate in a coma. After realizing her brother might never wake up Kasumi abandons the clan to take vengeance on her uncle for what he did to her brother. The clan brands Kasumi a runaway shinobi and tasks Ayane with eliminating her. Kasumi learns that her uncle is involved with a company called DOATEC and enters a fighting tournament they are hosting. Unbeknownst to Kasumi, while she is participating in the tournament the still comatose Hayate is kidnapped. Kasumi makes it to the final round of the Dead or Alive 1 World Combat Championship and faces her uncle. She kills him and wins the tournament. Immediately afterward she is taken captive by the Super-human Development Project.
Ayane's Story:
After the portal to Hell in Mt. Fuji is closed Ayane returns to her clan for a while. While she’s there Raidou also returns to steal one of the Mugen Tenshin secret moves called the Torn Sky Blast. Hayate and Ayane fight Raidou and the fight ends with Raidou using the Torn Sky Blast and putting Hayate in a coma. The next day Kasumi abandons the clan in order to take revenge for her brother. The clan brands Kasumi a traitor and tasks Ayane with eliminating her. Ayane follows Kasumi who has enrolled herself in a new fighting tournament called Dead or Alive hosted by DOATEC, a company Kasumi thinks knows something about the whereabouts of Raidou. Ayane does not enter the tournament and hopes Kasumi will end up in the D column of DOA. The tournament ends with Raidou dead, the still comatose Hayate kidnapped, and Kasumi’s whereabouts unknown.
Kasumi's Story:
While Kasumi is held captive her clone ‘Kasumi Alpha’ is created. Kasumi is entered in DOA 2 and faces her clone. Kasumi defeats the clone and advances. During the tournament she sees Hayate, but he has amnesia and doesn’t recognize her. Later she faces off against Ayane who was sent by her clan to kill the traitor. Kasumi loses the fight and barely escapes with her life.

Ayane also runs into Hayate who is awake and free, but has amnesia. Ayane also meets Helena for the first time. Helena suspects Ayane could have killed her mother and when Helena confronts Ayane, Ayane doesn’t deny anything. It is later revealed that Ayane had nothing to do with Helena’s mothers death.
After the tournament Ayane returns to the Mugen Tenshin Clan and learns that the man who raised her, Genra, is missing.
Kasumi's Story:
