Chapter One
Liu Kang and Kitana were lying down in bed together. They were both naked underneath the sheets that were covering them. Liu Kang's strong arms were wrapped around his beautiful lover's waist. Kitana rested her head on Liu Kang's broad chest. They were both fast asleep.
"COOK A DOODLE DOO! COOK A DOODLE DOO!" said the rooster outside their cottage. The curtains were drawn but the rays of the sunlight still brought light into their bedroom. Liu Kang heard the rooster crow and it woke him up. He tried closing his eyes again and going back to sleep but he felt the sun on his face. He couldn't go back to sleep. He yawned and wiped his sleepy face with his hand. Liu Kang looked down at Kitana, whose head was still on his chest. She was still fast asleep. He smiled. Liu Kang loved Kitana more than anyone else in the world. He felt so lucky to be with such an incredible woman. She was everything he wanted in a woman and more; she was beautiful, smart, confident, tough and she was nice and sweet. She was a good person. Even though her 'sister' Mileena hated her and wanted to kill her, Kitana still cared for Mileena. Kitana always told Liu Kang how she hoped that Mileena would become a good person one day.
Liu Kang gently kissed Kitana on the forehead.
"Mmm.." she said, and she fluttered her eyes open.
"Good Morning," Kitana said, smiling.
"Good Morning," said Liu, smiling. "Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you up."
"It's okay. I heard the rooster so I was waking up anyway."
"Your snoring woke me up." Liu said, smiling.
"I do not snore!" Kitana smiled, jokingly punching his arm. They both laughed.
"I'm going to the temple to meditate and spar with Kung Lao this morning. Do you want to come with me?" asked Liu.
"Not today my love" said Kitana, "I have a lot to do on the farm today."
"Okay," said Liu, pecking her on the lips. He got up from bed and changed into his red and black pants, and black shoes. He tied his red bandana on his head.
"Do you want breakfast?" asked Kitana who was sitting in bed, covering herself with the bedsheet.
"No I'm good, thank you."
"Are you sure? You should eat something. You need your strength before you spar."
"I'll eat an apple."
"Thank you." said Kitana. They smiled and kissed each other on the lips.
"I will see you later today Princess."
"Alright my love."
Liu walked outside and started his walk to the temple. Liu and Kitana lived in a small, quaint cottage in the woods. They had a small farm where they grew their own crops; potatoes, fruits, vegetables, corn, and they raised goats, chickens and ducks. When they were not defending the world from evil, Liu and Kitana enjoyed their peaceful life in the woods. The temple was not so far from their house. It was only a ten minute walk.
Liu Kang arrived at the beautiful temple and practiced his fighting moves. He decided to meditate after sparring with Kung Lao.
"What's taking him so long?" thought Liu Kang to himself. Kung Lao was fifteen minutes late.
Just then, a man appeared. This man was the last person that Liu Kang wanted to see.
"Shang Tsung?" said Liu Kang surprised and disgusted. "What the hell are you doing here?"
"To get your soul!" Shang Tsung replied with an evil smile on his face. The sorcerer sprung into attack. He tried to punch Liu Kang but he blocked his punch. Liu Kang kicked Shang Tsung's stomach many times and then punch his head. Shang Tsung was on his knees, groaning in pain. Liu Kang thought that he had defeated him. Liu Kang didn't see that Quan Chi was behind him. Quan Chi threw a fireball on his back and Liu fell down in pain. Shang Tsung came behind Liu Kang, who was weakened by Quan Chi's attack. He grabbed Liu's head. Liu Kang struggled to get free but to no avail.
"I told you I would get your soul." smirked Shang Tsung. Liu Kang continued to struggle and then Shang Tsung snapped his neck.
Liu Kang is dead.
Shang Tsung used his powers to absorb Liu Kang's soul. The evil sorcerers smiled at their victory.
"You have no idea how long I have wanted to do that." said Shang Tsung.
"You have finally had your revenge." said Quan Chi.
"Indeed." said Shang Tsung.
Kung Lao was late and he was hurrying to the temple. From afar, he saw Quan Chi and Shang Tsung, who was holding Liu Kang's head.
"NO! NO! NO!" screamed Kung Lao, running at full speed to help his best friend. Before he reached Liu Kang however, it was too late.
Kung Lao was devastated, sad, angry, enraged. He was going to kill those assholes for killing his best friend. He reached the temple and gave Shang Tsung a powerful uppercut and then he punched Quan Chi in the face. Quan Chi threw a fireball at him and Kung Lao dodged it but then Shang Tsung hit him with a fireball causing him to fall to his knees in pain. Quan Chi went up to Kung Lao, about to rip his heart out from his chest.
"Lets go. Our fight is not with him. It was with Liu Kang. We have more important matters to attend to." said Shang Tsung.
"Fine." said Quan Chi reluctantly. The sorcerers transported out of the temple through a portal.
"NO!" said Kung Lao, running towards them but it was too late, the portal had closed.
Kung Lao turned and saw his best friend lying on the ground. Lifeless. Dead. Tears started to form in his eyes. He fell down to his knees next to Liu Kang's body.
"Liu? Liu?" said Kung Lao, tears falling down his face. He picked up Liu's arm and held his hand. "Come on Liu. Stop kidding around. Get up. Come on, get up brother. Liu…"
Liu didn't answer.
"Liu…no…NOOOOO!" screamed Kung Lao, crying loudly.

"Hello there little ones!" said Kitana, patting the baby goats. Kitana was so busy. She had fed animals and collected eggs from the chickens and ducks. She picked some crops from the farm and planted seeds. Kitana loved the life that she and Liu had. She had been a princess her whole life. Although he mother thought her how to fight and be independent, she was still a princess with servants around her. She loved the fact that she didn't have any servants attending to her anymore. She did her own work. She grew crops, she cooked and she cleaned the house. Liu Kang worked on the farm as well and helped clean up the house. She just liked the fact that she was living a normal life with the man she loved. Kitana left the pen of the goats. Carrying a basket of vegetables, she was just about to go inside and make lunch before Liu returned. Just then, she saw a man walking towards the property. It was Kung Lao.
"Where's Liu?" thought Kitana to herself.
Kung Lao walked slowly towards her.
"Hello there Kung Lao! I was just about to make lunch if you want to eat…" Kitana noticed that Kung Lao's eyes were red and he had tears in his eyes. He had a miserable look on his face. Kitana felt scared.
"Kung Lao?" she said, placing the basket down on the ground, "Are you alright? What troubles you? Where's Liu?"
"Kitana…" Kung Lao tried not to cry but tears rolled down his face.
Kitana was feeling more afraid now.
"Kung Lao…you're scaring me…what happened? Where's Liu? Did something happen to him?"
"Kitana…I…I am so sorry…Liu…Liu is…he's dead…"
Kitana was shocked. She heard what he just said but she didn't want to believe it. She stood still, devastated.
"Kitana…I'm so sorry." Kung Lao hugged her but Kitana pushed him away.
"No…No…No! NO! NO! NO! NO! NOOOOOO! NOOOOOO!" Kitana fell to her knees crying so loudly. She didn't even sound like she was crying, she was wailing. Her wails were full of pain, hurt, sadness…
Kung Lao bent down and hugged her, stroking her hair. They both knelt down on the ground holding each other, crying.
