The bar was full. People of every side of the country were there. But he was the only ninja around here. He was using a blue vest, made of thin fabric. His light brown eyes, somehow fixed at the cup of alcohol beverage, shining due to the crystal clear of the tears. Sub-Zero taken the cup of whisky to his mouth. This was the cure for his suffering, the hot feeling liquid descending trough his throat. His movements became inaccurate, beginning a long, unstoppable state of drunkenness."Who cares" he thought to himself. "No one even care of my existence, so why should I take care".

Smoke entered the bar. He was searching for his best friend a lot of time. It used Sub-Zero LVW to search, and was tired. "That bar will be the last place I will search for him. Better he be in there" The bar was full of people playing poker and other card games, drunken men making fun of themselves and drunken women, selling their virginity. At the left corner he found him, whining, tears going trough his mask and reaching the table.

"Sub-Zero"

"Smoke, what are thou doing here?"

"I´m doing a friend obligation, to find you, here"

"Then you don't know of my suffering, i´m crying pots, cause of that idiot sparring match"

"Don't finish of. Jade, isn't it"

"You right, she caught me off guard, while I was thinking about how she is sexy, then he kicked me in the face, then extended that bar of iron of her's and hit me, in the balls"

"Ouch. That hurt"

"But not only hurt my body, but my heart as well. Also, when I was lying on the stadium ground, she raised the bar, most like to pierce me. I do not wanted to live anymore, so I was ready to die"

"Then, she danced and shown to you the 'World Wide Ability of Dancing on a Pole' In other words, strip-tease"

"Why she done that with me, did I something wrong? Am I not worthy of life?"

"I can´t answer this to you, the answer lies within your heart. Trust in yourself, right, even if it hurts."

"How can I do this, i don't know, I want to…..to have…."

Sub-Zero fell asleep. Smoke picked his old friend, and put on the LVW. He reached the house were they lived very fastly. Lucky for the grey ninja, the princess bodyguard was doing patrol.

"Jade, can you help me here. I need to take him to his bed."

"Sure thing. I was searching for him, did I dealt too heavy with him?"

"Sorry to say, but yes. I found him in a bar, drunk"

"That is my fault, I didn't needed to be so harsh with him. How can I repay him"

"I guess that you´ll need to melt his heart out. And you´ll know exactly what to do, right"

Jade began to think how she could ask for sorry, after all, she didn't hurt only Sub-Zero, but has hurt the heart of Kuai Liang.
