Finally Free

Introduction

I am the daughter of the Edenian Ambassador. An henchwoman and worshipper of Shinnok. I may appear to be innocent, but I was corrupted by dark magic, though no one truly knows how or why. This corruption has caused me to betray my realm in favor of Shao Kahn, who merged Edenia with Outworld long ago. Since then I made a lot of enemies, one in particular was Jade, one of Edenia's highly-esteemed generals and bodyguard of Princess Kitana, who I also despise because of her popularity. I would ally with whoever would help achieve my goals for ultimate power, but most of the time, they became obsolete. I've spent my entire life in Outworld, hoping for a chance to return to Edenia. Shao Kahn was planning to invade Earthrealm, something I did not wish to take part of. I served many masters, Shang Tsung, Quan Chi, and even Onaga, the Dragon King. I thought I had great power in my hands as promised, until one day, all of that has changed when I met a certain Earthrealmer, Chris. He was being attacked by Kano and his Black Dragon thugs. I stopped them immediately before they can kill him. I took him to my campsite to accelerate his recovery and earned his trust when I explained to him that my birthplace is on the verge of being rebuilt. Immediately, I fell in love with him. He took it upon himself to defeat Shao Kahn and save Earthrealm. I realized that he was the real deal. I decided to play along as his 'girlfriend', but five years later, I used his love and trust to backstab him. I revealed to him that I planned on killing Jade, whom he had a love interest, the same woman who stole him from me. I learned that Kitana shared the same interest. It was then that Kano had mentally tortured Chris, much to my delight. The Dragon King's return was rapidly approaching and I was ready to serve him, and finally kill Jade, win Chris back, and kill him. Something changed that night while I was sleeping, however, something that will change my life forever. My name is Tanya, and this is my story.
