Mortal Kombat is the property of Midway I do not own it.

This is a story about Sonya and Scorpion (my two favorite characters) and a journey of revenge, fait, past, present, future and love. Enjoy

Chp .1

It was the beginning of the Mortal Kombat tournament; Sonya was tracking down a named Kano. A man who took the lives of her partner and several other members of her military squad. She wanted her revenge even if that meant going against the book. She looked over at all the competitors that were in this tournament. She felt a person behind her she quickly turned around to see a man in sunglasses standing behind her. He pulled down his shades and said, "Well hello there sexy are you the prize"? Sonya rolled her eyes and started to walk away. He grabbed arm and said, "Now come on baby I just want to talk and maybe get a date with you after I win ". Sonya had enough she turned around and said, " look here you pig leave me the hell alone before I kick your ass". The man frowned "do you know who I am. I am Johnny Cage", he said angrily. Sonya jerked her arm away. "I don't care who the hell you are, i'm here for one reason and that is to kill a man named Kano, " she said. Sonya walked away. Johnny walked in the opposite rolling his eyes. Sonya could not let anything get her off track of her mission.

Scorpion was ready to get his revenge on the Lin Kuei assassin named Sub Zero. The assassin that killed his clan and his family. He walked down a hallway entering the throne room where all the challengers in the tournament were waiting for the tournament to begin. Then he saw Subzero, the rage built up inside him, he wanted his revenge. He started to walk towards Subzero when he felt a hand on his shoulder. "Not yet Scorpion", said Quan Chi. Scorpion nodded and continued to walk at Quan Chi's side. They came to a stop and stood beside the throne. Scorpion could see everyone in the throne room. A woman caught his eye, she was a blonde with her hair pulled back in a ponytail, and she was staring at a man known as Kano with revenge in her eyes. Scorpion chuckled and gazed back toward Subzero. " Vengeance will be mine " Scorpion thought.

Sonya stood in the throne room staring down Kano, she couldn't wait to get her hands on him and end him, but first she had to find her partner Jax. Her communicator started beeping. "Sonya here", she said into the communicator. "Sonya have you located Jax?" said the voice on other line. " Not yet but i've located Kano " she replied. " Find Jax first and keep your eyes on Kano and bring him if you can" said the voice. "Roger that ", said Sonya. Then an older man entered the room and sat on the throne and spoke up, "Hello warriors I am your host of this tournament Shang Tsung. He continued to speak, " This tournament will determine the fiat of Earthrelm, and then the winner will face me". Sonya looked up at the old man. He was strange man who must amuse himself with watching people fight for their lives. It sickened her. " Lets begin the first fight will be Johnny Cage vs. Scorpion", said Shang Tsung. Sonya crossed her arms and turned her attention to the first match. She looked at Johnny Cage and rolled her eyes. Then she looked at the one called Scorpion he was an average height man in ninja like clothing on that was black and yellow. He had very strange eyes they were white, no color in them at all. "He's not human anymore", a voice said behind her. It was the thunder god Radien. "What do you mean"? Sonya asked. "By the powers of the sorcerer Quan Chi" said Radien. "Why you telling me this", Sonya asked. "Because Sonya you're the one who will unlock his true power and help him regain his formal self.

Scorpion didn't care much to win the tournament he just wanted to get his revenge on Subzero. "Hey we going to fight or what," said Johnny. Scorpion didn't say a word. Johnny ran at the ninja ready to punch him. The ninja then disappeared. Scorpion reappeared in front of Johnny kicking him in the face knocking a couple of his teeth out. Scorpion picked Johnny up and held him by the trout. "Finish Him," said Shang Tsung. Scorpion tossed Johnny to the ground "no", Scorpion said. Shang Tsung shook his head in disappointment "Take the loser away", he said. Scorpion had his first win in the tournament. "I demand Subzero". Said Scorpion. " You will Scorpion calm down", said Quan Chi. Scorpion nodded and walked away. He passed by Sonya who was looking at him. Then it hit him a flashback of his wife. "You okay"? Sony asked. Scorpion just walked away. He walked outside the throne room by the fountain. He didn't know why he was having these flashbacks, was it because of Subzero, or was it something about that woman but what was it? He just wanted this pain to go away.

Sonya watched the ninja leave the throne room. She turned her attention to Shang Tsung. Shang Tsung was looking at the warriors. "The next match will start tomorrow at dawn ", he said as he got up to leave. Sonya would take this time to find Jax. She left the throne room to explore the palace. This place is huge she thought, well it is a palace after all she reminded her self. She then came to some stairs that lead down to a dungeon. "This must be where they're keeping Jax," she said to herself. Before she reached the end of the stairs she heard voices, she stopped. She peaked around the corner to she Quan Chi talking to Scorpion. "Guard this room make sure no one frees the prisoner", said Quan Chi. Scorpion nodded. Then Quan Chi teleported out of the room. "Damn", Sonya thought. "This isn't going to be easy.

Scorpion stood crossed armed in front of Jax's cell. Scorpion wondered why it was so important to keep this man prisoner. Then he heard someone enter the room, it was the woman form earlier. "Jax", she yelled. Scorpion stared her down and stood his ground ready for anything "Get out of here", he said. Sonya replied "No I have to get my partner out of here and no one is going to stop me. Sonya stood her ground as well. "Sonya", said Jax form the cell. "It's okay Jax I'm here to get out of this place", Sonya said. Sonya looked at Scorpion, "Move aside Scorpion I don't want to have to fight you, but I will", she said. Scorpion looked puzzled for a second then his expression turned serious. "You're going to challenge me", he said. Sonya replied, "Yes I never leave a man behind". Scorpion smirked, "I accept your challenge", he replied. Sonya cartwheeled at him and did a spin kick to his ribs. Scorpion countered it by grabbing her boot and tossing her aside. Sonya landed back on her feet and tried to round house kick him this time she connected. Scorpion smirked not bad that actually hurt a little he thought. He stumbled a little and grabbed her when she tried to kick him again. Damn he is fast, Sonya thought, she jumped back to her feet and went for the uppercut. Scorpion grabbed her wrist and pulled her arm behind her. "Don't move or I'll break it", he said. Sony struggled. "I'm not playing woman", Scorpion said. "Let go", Sonya said. "I wont to you stop struggling and listen to what I say", said Scorpion. Sonya stopped struggling "What do you want", she asked. Before Scorpion could answer her Radien entered the room. Scorpion let go of her arm and pushed her aside. Sonya stumbled and fell to the ground,

"Shield your eyes", a voice said inside Sonya's head. She did as it said a big bright flash of light blind Scorpion for a while. Sony used this time to free Jax. She used her laser on her wrist to melt the bars on the cell bars. "Come on ", she said grabbing Jax. She helped him up get outside and gently put him down. "You okay", Sonya asked Jax. "Yeah just a little banged up", he replied." I'm going to get us out of here", Sonya replied. "This is Sonya Blade reporting in I have Jax he need medical attention", she said into her communicator. "Sonya we are locked on your location and on our way" said the voice on the communicator. Jax looked at Sonya, "It's a good thing you showed up I didn't know what that old man was going to do to me", he said. "The old man, Shang Tsung?" Sonya asked. "Yeah that's the guy", replied Jax. Sonya growled, "That basterd he is asking for trouble", Sonya said. Then she heard the helicopter coming in she flag them down, but before they could land a fire ball hit the helicopter spinning it out of control making it crash. "No", Sonya shouted. She turned to see Shang Tsung. "You have a challenger", said Shang Tsung. "Were not apart of your tournament", Sonya said. "Now you are you either compete or you die", said Shang Tsung. "You should at least get Jax a medic", Sonya said. "After you face Kano", said Shang Tsung. "Come on shela lets fight", said Kano This is my chance, Sonya thought. They began to fight. Kano pulled out his knife and ran at Sonya trying to stab her. Sonya managed to avoid getting stab and grabbed his wrist and trips him with her foot. She then disarmed him. Kano jumped back on his feet and charged her and then kicked her in ribs. She stumbled ans regained her footing. Sonya then uppercut him in the jaw. Kano fell back she put her boot on his chest and held him down. "Stop this fight Shang Tsung", said Radien. Shang Tsung laughed and motion for Kano to come. Sonya moved her boot form Kano's chest. Kano got up and smirked at her "Next time I got you "; he said to her and laughed away laughing. Radien walked over to Jax and Sonya. Sonya stood defensively in front of Jax. "Its okay Ms. Blade", said Radien. Radien kneeled down beside Jax and healed him. "That's amazing", said Jax. "Okay so this tournament really is held to decide the fate of the Earth"? , Sonya asked Radien. "Yes if we do not win against Shang Tsung and the rest of Shao Kahn's men the Earthrelm will be under Shao Kahn's control", said Radien. "Well me and Jax are with you", said Sonya.

Scorpion knew he would hear it from Quan Chi later for letting that woman and prisoner get away. He teleported back to the throne room where everyone was waiting for the 2nd half of the tournament to begin. Scorpion took his spot beside Quan Chi. "You let her get away Scorpion", said Quan Chi. Scorpion stayed silent and looked at Subzero. Shang Tsung entered the throne room and began to speak, "The next match will be Kung Lou vs. Scorpion", he said, Scorpion stepped forward and took his place on the battle ring. The battle ended with Scorpion the victor. Scorpion turned his attention to Shang Tsung, " I demand Subzero", Scorpion said. "If you want Subzero you get him", said Shang Tsung. "Next match will be Scorpion vs. Subzero", said Shang Tsung. Subzero walked on to battle ring and stood in front of Scorpion. "You", said Scorpion. Subzero stayed silent. "You will die for what you did", said Scorpion. Scorpion grabbed Subzero and teleported him to the Neitherrelm. The fight went on for hours it seemed but Scorpion came out the victor. He went for the killing blow but stopped himself. "I wont kill you", he said to Subzero. Then Quan Chi appeared " Kill him Scorpion or have you forgotten what he has done ", he said. Then Quan chi showed Scorpion the past of what happened to his clan and family. Scorpion looked at Subzero with rage. "But that's not me ", said Subzero. Scorpion then delivered the final blow. Scorpion teleported back to the throne room with Subzero's skull and spine in his hand. He hung his down and dropped Subzero's skull on the floor making it shatter then he teleported away. "Damn", said Jax. Shang Tsung smiled and said, " The next half of the tournament will start at noon tomorrow". Everyone left the throne room and went to a hallway where they were given keys to rooms they would be staying the night in and a letter.

Sonya took her room key and letter. She looked at Jax and said, "Wow I can't believe that Scorpion killed that man," said Sonya. "I can he probably would have killed you if it wasn't for Radien", said Jax. Sonya nodded then said, " But he seem to be going easy on me like he didn't really want to fight me". Jax shook his head "he probably was toying with you Sonya and if you can help it stay away form him", he said. Sonya replied," yes sir". "Now get some rest Sonya", said Jax as he walked away. Sonya walked till she found her room when she found it she unlocked the door. When she entered she saw that paper lanterns on the ceiling lighted it, there was candles on the bedside tables. There was a queen size Japanese style bed and to the left of the room there was a bathroom but no shower. She walked back to the bed and sat down. She opened the letter and began to read it. It said," Please enjoy your stay at the palace you will be served meals by the following 8:00 am breakfast will be sent to your room, at 12:00pm lunch will be sent to your room as well, and at 7:00pm you will be expected to be in dinning hall for dinner". Sonya kept reading, "There is hot springs on the Westside of palace if you need to bathe and we hope you enjoy your stay and good luck warrior". She put the note down and walked out to the balcony and looked up at the stars. She looked down at her watch 6:57 it said. Well better head to dinning hall, she thought. She saw everyone except for Scorpion. The dinning hall was so beautiful the ceiling had a giant chandelier with a dragon in the center; the table was set beautifully with flowers in the center and food neatly prepared and in the center as well. Sonya took a seat beside Jax. When everyone was seated Shang Tsung began to speak, "You may feast warriors". After dinner Jax looked over at Sonya "I don't trust a lot of these people here so be careful and watch your back", he said. "Yes sir" Sonya said. After talking to Jax Sonya went back to her room to grab a towel and headed for hot springs. When she got there she sat in the hot spring and relaxed. But she didn't know she was being watched.

Scorpion didn't understand what was wrong with him, he killed the Lin Kuei assassin but he was still feeling the pain he'd been feeling for years. Then he got another flashback of his wife she was crying, he shook his head, why is this happening to me he thought. He started to walk around to palace trying to clear his head. He wondered around until he heard a scream coming form the Westside. He teleported to the hot springs to see Kano holding Sonya by the trout with one hand and a knife stabbed in her ribs on the left side. Kano had her pined to a tree laughing at her. Scorpion teleported behind Kano and hit him in the back of the head enough to knock him out. Sonya fell to the ground. Scorpion walked over to Sonya's body and tossed her body over his left shoulder, then he teleported to the medical room. He stitched her up and went through her pockets; he found her room key with room number on the side. He teleported to her room and sat her on the bed. When she came to she moaned in pain. "Don't move you'll open your wound", Said Scorpion.

Sonya looked over at the balcony to see Scorpion standing there. "What are you doing here and what do you want?" she asked. Scorpion stepped forward and said, "You were attacked by Kano your lucky I was around to save you". Sonya looked down at her injury, damn she thought. "Why you save me?" she asked. But when she looked up Scorpion was gone. The tournament went on without Sonya competing due to her injury. The tournament with the Earthrelm the victor. Sonya healed with time and started to train for the next time she saw Kano. But she couldn't help but wonder why Scorpion saved her that night. "Sonya training is over for today hit the showers and rest that's an order", said Jax. "sir yes sir", said Sonya. She walked to her room and took a shower. "why, why did you save me she thought. She layed down after putting on a tank top and pajama shorts and fell asleep.
