A story mortal kombat that takes place after the arcade endings of the characters in mortal kombat 9
Chapter 1
As the night started in an unknown city of earthrealm, scorpion was on a rooftop thinking what to do now that his master's allies have been defeated by the defenders of earthrealm, so if the deal between Shao Khan and Quan Chi was off because of shao khan's death, does that means he has to go back to the netherrealm? Scorpion didn't want to think of that again so he left the rooftop.
As he was making his way down to the subway so nobody will see him disappearing to the netherrealm in a burst of flames, he reached an abandoned subway station he was about to leave until he heard a female voice.
-"Well, well seems my eyes found a very attractive ninja."
When scorpion turned around he saw a woman with pink clothes and a pink mask, her hair was short and black and she was holding a brown object.
-"Mileena…"he said "what are you doing here?"
-"Looking for you" she said as scorpion was standing there confused. Then she showed the brown object to him.
-"I wanted to give you this teddy bear, I made it myself" she said.
Unknowing of her real intentions, scorpion rejected that fluffy stuff.
-"I HATE TEDDIES!" he said angry. As mileena was a little bit frustrated by his choose of words.
-"I worked so hard on this, you have to accept it!" she said trying to make him accept it.
The two of them started a fight for this argument of a single teddy bear, as the fight was reaching its end; the both of them punched each other so both of them were knock out to the floor.
As scorpion was standing up, he went where mileena was lying on the floor, he grabbed the teddy and strangle the little brown object and throw it to the railway as a train was passing, 2 seconds later the train completely crushed the teddy bear.
Scorpion was watching how a few tears were coming out of mileena's face, he couldn't wait to know the reason of her tears and he asked:
-"Why are you crying?"
-"Because you destroyed the gift I made for you!" mileena responded with sadness.
-"What?" Scorpion asked very confused, "why did you wanted to give me a gift?"
-"It's because I…I...!" She couldn't speak for exactly 3 seconds and scorpion was looking at her wondering what she was trying to say until she finally said a little embarrassed:
-"…I love you." After those words scorpion was petrified like a rock, he felt like an idiot for fighting her and destroying the teddy.
-"And that teddy was my chance to…" mileena said but she couldn't continue because scorpion shut her up in 3 moves: 1) he pulled her close to him; 2) he took off his and her mask, as for his mask he took off the metal part of it, showing only the bottom of his skull; 3)he kissed her.
Mileena was shocked for what scorpion did but she then relaxed and enjoyed the moment with the ninja. When they finished scorpion said:
-"Sorry for the whole teddy bear problem, are we good?"
-"We are more than good." Mileena said very happy and she kissed scorpion again, they stopped when they realize than the passengers from the train that was passing were watching them. Scorpion hold mileena and the both of them vanished somewhere else, a few moments later they appeared on the top of a rooftop.
-"So I'll see you some other time?" mileena asked.
-"Maybe, I hope we can see each other again" scorpion said, before leaving he hug her and kissed her, and then he left in a burst of flames.
-"I'll see you again my scorpy, bet on it" Mileena said as she left as well.
It's been seven days since what happened in the subway station, in the netherrealm, quan chi summoned scorpion and informed him about the recent events:
-"Scorpion, I believe you know of the events after the destruction of the emperor." quan chi said
-"No I don't think so." Scorpion replied.
-"Then you must know…" the sorcerer said "After the death of shao khan, the shaolin monk liu kang demanded the elder gods to make him a god, they granted him his wish but the power corrupted him and now he wants to control all the realms. The problem now is that raiden is still alive but no longer a god, so he is a mere mortal at this moment, he has reunited the defenders of earthrealm again and he even gained others, now liu kang is offering us a spot in his army and we shouldn't leave that opportunity to pass".
-"No, we shouldn't" scorpion replied knowing that if they accepted the deal, he would be able to stay in earthrealm.
-"Then we must go to the location of our new mission" quan chi said as
He transported scorpion and himself to a forest in an unknown location.
When the sorcerer and the specter got there, they spotted raiden and his allies.
-"I can see that live like a mortal is very complicated for you, old thunder god". Quan chi said.
-"I knew it was only a matter of time for you to show up quan chi". Raiden replied. Then scorpion spotted his long time enemy sub-zero and he was ready to battle him until he saw kitana, jade and mileena at the side of the forces of light, scorpion was surprised to see mileena with the defenders and she was surprised as well for see that scorpion was serving quan chi.
-"Mileena, what are you doing with them?" scorpion said.
-"Scorpion, what are you doing with him? Mileena said and quan chi could hear this and the sorcerer replied:
-"I didn't tell you about this, right? Well, after the death of the emperor, the princess kitana offered mileena a spot in the kingdom of edenia and she accepted, so that makes her and the rest of them our enemies, destroy them!" quan chi ordered.
-"I…I will not." Scorpion said, quan chi was angry for the decision of scorpion.
-"Scorpion you will ATTACK THEM!" as he was trying to control the specter with his sorcery. As scorpion was screaming for the pain of the magic sub-zero attacked quan chi so he stopped his controlling attack at scorpion.
-"You idiot, you think if you help me you're gonna escape from my revenge!" scorpion said angry.
-"For the last time scorpion, my brother and I didn't kill your family and clan." Sub-zero said trying to convince scorpion with the truth.
-"He is right, scorpion" raiden replied "and I can prove it". Even without his god powers, raiden stopped the time and showed scorpion the past in where his family and clan were destroyed, and he saw the truth: quan chi disguised himself as sub-zero and killed scorpion's family and clan. After the vision ended, scorpion fulled of rage kicked quan chi to a rock.
-"You really believe you can defeat me, scorpion?" the sorcerer said with pride in his voice.
-"You took away everything from me, NOW I'LL SHOW YOU THE MEANING OF PAIN!" Scorpion screamed with anger.
As they started to fight scorpion shot his spear in quan chi's knees.
-"GET OVER HERE!" scorpion yelled as the sorcerer fell into the ground and he was pulled, but quan chi created a sword and stabbed scorpion in the stomach.
-"You're nothing without my power scorpion and you will die for your arrogance!" quan chi said when he was about to decapitate scorpion until a yellow aura stared to come out of the ninja body.
-"Not…just…yet" scorpion said as he started to change. Bandages started too appeared in the lowest part of his shoulders, bone spines came out of his elbows; his fingers chanced to silver claws, his eyes showed pupils and they turned red and in his back, appeared flaming wings until they took the form of angel's wings.
-"What is going on?" The sorcerer said, as the fear in his voice could be noticed.
-"You will suffer my wrath!" said a grave voice and scorpion was looking at quan chi as his target to destroy once and for all, the rage was boiling in his veins, his hands started to burn in flames, the power was too strong that quan chi was pushed away.
-"What…are…you?"quan chi asked terrified to the specter who was seeking revenge against him.
-"I AM THE SPECTER SCORPION!" the specter said and he grabbed quan chi in his neck and he made the sorcerer burn into flames. As quan chi was screaming for the burning of the flames, the specter scorpion throws him to the ground.
-"So long, quan chi." the specter scorpion said -"For my clan! And For my family!" then he performed the fatality "spine rip off" on quan chi.
At last, the evil sorcerer quan chi was death; scorpion finally avenged the deaths of his family and clan. A few moments later scorpion was getting back to his normal self but when he became normal, he went out and fell to the ground.
-"What happened to him?" mileena said worried
-"It seems he used to much power, he must rest, we'll take him with us." raiden said.
Two hours later scorpion waked up only to see mileena staring at him, he could notice that she was way worried and when she saw him waking up she was very happy.
-"You're not gonna tell me you've been staring at me all this time, right?" scorpion asked.
-"Not all the time my sweet, I had to go to look for some food, I was starving." Mileena said, obviously they were joking with each other.
-"You got me worried down there, you know?"mileena said.
-"Don't worry I won't die so easily, because I'll always protect you." scorpion said and as they were about to kiss each other, Johnny Cage came at the wrong time.
-"SO!, How are you two love birds doing?" the actor said so scorpion and mileena jumped scared for the suddenly appearance of Cage.
-"Dude, what the hell?" scorpion said.
-"He he, sorry scorpion"Johnny said.
-"No problem Cage, by the way where are we?" scorpion asked
-"Well after you fainted because you used to much power, we had to take you with us and our next mission is in Rome, Italy but now that raiden doesn't have his god powers, we're flying in my private jet!" Johnny Cage said and he could see scorpion's nervous reaction for being in a jet. A few minutes later, the defenders were in the main room of the plane as raiden started his speech:
-"We must thank the elder gods that we have gained new allies in our quest, no matter what will happen in our next mission I have faith in all of you, we will defeat liu kang and his army and we will save the realms no matter wha…"
-"Sorry to interrupt raiden-dude" Johnny Cage said interrupting the speech of raiden- "but what we really must do now is celebrate for our team and our new members so…Cheers!" he said, raising a cup of wine, it was amazing that scorpion, mileena, sub-zero, kitana, smoke, jade, nightwolf, jax, sonya, kung lao and kabal did the same except for Stryker, who didn't want to drink wine.
-"C'mon Stryker you must drink a little bit, for the team." Johnny Cage said, trying to make him drink a least once.
-"NO I won't!" Stryker said.
Five minutes later…
-"So I told the guy in the mirror, you look like me but you ain't no cop…" Stryker started to say after drinking a little glass of wine. Moments later they were approaching they're destination, unknown of the opponents they were about to face in Italy.
