Yeah deegirlsjs and I were bored. I was also reading other MK fics and they gave me this idea. Enjoy and I own nothing.

Lucipher's POV

I used to be your normal college student. I was 20 years old and I was living life the way I knew how. My best bud was another 20 year old classmate of mine named Luna. Our names went together; I was Luci and she was Luna. Well, Luci is short for Lucipher (weird name, huh) but you get my point. Luna and I were complete opposites – I was cold and calculating, the strategic one of the two of us. She was hot headed and rushed into things, going on instinct. However, in strength we were equally matched. Our favorite game was Mortal Kombat. We were roommates and whenever our studies were finished we'd play Mortal Kombat. Sub-Zero was my all time favorite character and her favorite was Raiden.

But one day our lives changed. We were just talking about Mortal Kombat when we said we should get down to studying. We cracked open our books but when she gave an answer that I said was wrong, we got into an argument. At first it was just a debate but it changed and soon we were yelling at each other about something completely random. What do you know, two young adults yelling at each other? Then we started fighting and we just felt this uncontrollable rage come over us. Power radiated from our finger tips and we kept arguing.

Then it happened: she shot fire at me. Right out of her hands – fire. I blocked by freezing the fireball and we stared at each other. People stared at us and pretty soon the cops showed up. They arrested us but since we had those weird powers they didn't put us in jail, they put us in a mental ward. Well we weren't crazy we were just confused as to why we suddenly had these elemental powers. I found a way to escape and we almost did, but we were caught and locked away.

Then one night we were called to the meeting/counsel room. We were told we had visitors. When we walked in I was shocked to see Raiden standing there. His hands were behind his back and I was sure this was a dream. I know Luna was thinking the same thing – she and I sometimes think alike. But it was all real. This lady that escorted us there thought we were all crazy vigilantes trying to emulate Batman or some other freak from T.V. Raiden escorted us to the nearby forest and soon we were taken to his temple.

I stood quietly, my cold and calculating side showing obviously. Luna was being a hot head as usual, ranting about how stupid this was. Raiden had a look of amusement in his eyes. Soon after, Scorpion marched into the room we were being kept in. Raiden hushed Luna and I looked on in curiosity. "Ahh, Scorpion, you're here," Raiden greeted. Scorpion glanced to my best friend. Then he looked at me.

"I'm guessing the blonde is mine?" he asked, pointing to Luna. I snorted, holding in a few laughs. Of course it had to be Scorpion and Luna – they were both hot headed fighters. "So I have to train that brat?" Luna started smoking – literally. Gray smoke rose from her hands. "Great…" he grimaced, looking to me again. "I wonder who's in charge of her." I offered a slight smile, blue eyes sparking slightly. Scorpion turned away and walked to Luna. Raiden approached me.

"You and your friend are going to be trained in the ways of your elements. Scorpion will train Luna and you shall be trained by Sub Zero," Raiden explained. I was surprised but I didn't know why. I was to be trained by the blue garbed Lin Kuei assassin. "We have been watching you in hopes of your return…" I was about to open my mouth to respond to that but Liu Kang ran into the room a few moments later.

"Master Raiden," he greeted, coming to stand next to us. He spotted me and bowed. "Ahh, hello young Cryomancer," he greeted me. He greeted Luna with, "And hello to you young fire wielder." There was no greeting for Scorpion. "Master Raiden, I come to deliver a message from Sub-Zero. He says that he will be late and that he is going to give the 20 year old here a pop quiz!" He then looked back to me and his face fell. "Oh, I just warned her of the pop quiz, did I not?" Raiden looked like he was about to face palm, but he didn't. "I shall be back soon."

"NO YOU WON'T!" a voice boomed. It was Luna – she was readying a fire ball to throw at Liu Kang. She had never liked him while we were playing the games, and she had always said she would throw a fireball at him if he was real and she had powers. Ironic, isn't it? Before Raiden and I could react to this, the doors flew open and Sub-Zero (my MK hero) walked in. He wielded his kori blade and deflected the fireball. Luna was angry but Sub-Zero ignored her, coming to stand next to Raiden, Kang, and myself.

"This is my student," Sub-Zero said, giving me the once over. I kept my cold face on, offering him a glance with my dark blue eyes. When he looked back to Raiden I stared at him. It was a statement because he already knew that it was me that he was teaching. I was 20 years old, I had ice powers and I was being trained by Sub-Zero. Wow, how could it get any weirder? Well I thought too soon, but I'll explain that later.

"Yes." Raiden was careful with his response. Without warning, the blue clad ninja turned and swung his kori blade at me. I dodged and froze, unsure of what to do. The wheels were turning in my head, I was thinking of a way to take Sub-Zero down if he attacked again. His brilliant blue eyes were such a distraction though, that I didn't see the blade until it was too close. I managed to avoid it and scramble backwards. He jumped forward and fired a ball of ice at me, but I countered with my own ball of ice.

He seemed surprised that I was able to counter and dodge, but he continued his onslaught of attacks. With the kori blade he sliced at my legs, so I jumped and came down with a kick to his gut. He staggered backwards but it didn't affect him that much. I knew this was too weird – I shouldn't have been able to fend for myself so well. But it helps when you've got a cold and calculating demeanor. I spun and sent a whirlwind of snow and ice at him, but he just moved out of the way. It hit Luna instead who had forgotten to dodge. She was angry enough and that little shower didn't help things, so in a blind fury she tried to attack me. Before I could even think of a way to dodge or counter, Sub-Zero had pushed me out of the way and kicked Luna out of the way as well.

I stared at him in awe. He could've let me get fried by my friend and assailant, but instead he helped me. I didn't take it personally though. "Alright, training begins tomorrow," Raiden advised loudly, breaking up the heated fight. Luna was about to attack Sub-Zero but he wouldn't be able to block her next attack I knew. So I lurched forward and fired ice at her. She was frozen instantly and all fell silent. I turned to look at Sub-Zero who was raising a white eyebrow in surprise.

"I owed you one," I said with a shrug. He had put his kori blade away and I walked to stand next to him. Raiden seemed pleased that we had already started to defend each other – but I knew it was nothing. I did however want to please the ninja and show him that I was a good fighter. Luna was furious when she thawed out and Scorpion looked like he was about to gag. Liu Kang smiled at me as he left.

"Get some rest tonight," Raiden instructed. I nodded and Luna eventually calmed down and nodded as well. "Farewell," he said. Then he disappeared and we were sent back to our homes in the town where our college was. We were roommates but we both had houses that our parents were letting us use until we got out of college and found our own place to settle down in.

"So I have a guest room," I said, turning to Luna. "Yours however isn't finished yet." Luna shrugged.

"He can sleep on the couch," she said. I nodded and started for the door. Sub-Zero's blade landed a few feet in front of me. I whirled around and Luna prepared to protect me. Even though she was hot headed, she would protect me. Sometimes she got too hot headed and got mad at me, but I did that, too.

"Come with me," Sub-Zero said. His voice was firm and I glanced up to the setting sun. I sighed and picked up his kori blade. The hilt was cold, just as I had expected. Together we walked into the forest surrounding our houses and I wondered where he was taking me. The sun was disappearing; sinking and letting the world go dark. We finally stopped somewhere deep in the forest. "I should tell you, Raiden has been watching you since you were little."

"Why?" I questioned, keeping my voice low.

"You aren't from here," he said, gesturing around him. "You're from our world, but you were taken from that world when you were little. Raiden knew you would have elemental powers, but he let things play out. He could tell you two were getting close to discovering those powers, so he informed Scorpion and me of your situations. We didn't know anything about you up until then, so I have no idea what I'm doing besides the training part. I brought you out here to tell you."

"Because Luna would freak," I added. He nodded. The moonlight streamed down on him and I was kept in the darkness. "I feel like I'm dreaming."

"Raiden told us that's how you would feel," he said. "I assume you're the calm one?" I shrugged. I had always been cold and had a hard heart. It was hard to get me to show any form of grief, but I showed anger quite easily. It usually manifested itself in my glares. His brilliant blue eyes were locked on me. I couldn't tell if he thought I was annoying or not.

"Sometimes," I said. It wasn't such a shock that I was paired with Sub-Zero. "I guess you'll find out." I said shortly, turning and walking away. I paused. "You know the way out…" He started past me but it was easy to keep up with him. When we got back to the house Luna and Scorpion were nowhere in sight.

Yay first chapter done! Enjoy! And please review!
