Chapter 1: How did I make such a Big mistake?

Where do I start? Hi I'm Opal, I'm 16 years old, and I'm in the biggest trouble I've ever been in my life. I was in China visiting my friend we had a great time. Sadly I had to leave my friend and go home; unfortunately I have bad eye sight even without my glasses. So I ended up on the wrong boat that and I'm stuck in a "Guest room" until the captain is able to see me to figure out the matter. Meanwhile I'm reading one of my favorite books to pass the time.

"Hey missy, come here" I look up from my book I was reading to see a man with black dragon tattoos on his arms, scruffy beard and a metal face plate calling me. I went over to him and he led me to the captain's quarters, it was a nice room filled with artifacts that looked like it came from Asian royalty. I was snapped out of my awe when I was shoved down onto a chair. "Evening intruder my name is Shang tsung, just so we're clear I don't take kindly to stowaways. So you better have a good excuse for coming on my boat uninvited." He said with a low growl in his voice. I didn't want to be rude to him so I replied "I'm Opal I came on this boat by accident I don't have good eyesight and took the wrong pier to your boat. If you want I can pay with services such as cooking or cleaning until we reach the next port and I can get home on another boat." Shang tsung laughed "I'm sorry but we cannot do what you ask because this is a none stop journey to my island; where the most important event in your world is about to happen. As for your services they are unnecessary." He snapped his fingers so the man with the black dragon tattoos held me while he grabbed my throat. He stopped however and gave me a confused look "What sorcery is this?" He started to strangle me as I struggled "Why can't I take your soul?!"

'Take my soul what is he talking about?' I thought to myself when Suddenly a flash of lighting came in and a man was standing in the middle of the lighting strike, he was wearing a white robe with a straw hat. "Release her she is just a child." Shang tsung let go of my throat and laughed. "What are we going to do with her? She has no place here among us." he said with an amused smile. "I'll take care of her until the tournament is over. I expected more from you, attacking a young lady that's a new low." Shang tsung waved the man with dragon tattoos away and the strange man pulled me to his side and led me out of the room onto the deck, "My name is Raiden if you want to survive you have to stay near me or one of my comrades at all times. Is that understood Opal?". "Yes sir… Thank you for saving me but how did you know my name?" I asked in confusion as we came to the entrance. "There is no time to explain now… Liu Kang!" I saw a shirtless man coming toward me he bowed and asked "What is it Lord Raiden?" "This girl came upon this boat by accident; we are going to keep an eye on her until we can get her safely home. I have to go; there is urgent business I must take care of." Raiden said to Liu kang then left in a flash of lighting as he came before.

"So what is your name? So I know what to call you if you get lost." Liu kang said with a smile. "My name is Opal. I live in America and I was visiting my friend in China when I got on the wrong boat home. Then here I am." I say as I'm cleaning my glasses from the constant fog. We heard a bell and that was the signal for dinner, it was amazing almost every food from around the world was there. I start by getting some Aburaage (which is kind of like fried tofu) on my plate as well as Sweet red beans, then proceeded to get a turkey leg and water as my drink. I ate my food while everyone in the room stared at me, 'I know I don't belong here. So stop staring at me' I thought to myself. "Don't worry I'll make sure your safe, you can eat in peace." Liu kang said as he began eating his dumplings. Two others sat at our table a blonde Special Forces woman and a man wearing sunglasses indoors. Before I could meet them properly though the food was being taking away, signaling that it was time to go to sleep.

Liu kang led me to an empty room and said if I needed anything to come to him and he would help me. I got ready for bed in my tank top pajamas and started to read my book again. After reading a little I turned off the light and went to sleep. That night I had a strange nightmare, it was a pale man with red tattoos murdering an entire village. He then lied to a man from the village saying it was an ice ninja who slaughtered the village and transformed the man to a hell fire specter. I heard the specter say "Kana, Jubei and my clan will all be avenged if it's the last thing I ever do." I woke up with a start, 'why did I have that nightmare….Or could it have been a vision? Hopefully I'll get more answers tomorrow. ' I thought to myself as I lied back down and went back to sleep.
