Odd and Sissi hang at their favorite booth at the Brain Bar. "Where are they," ask Sissi. "Hanzo said he was stuck in traffic," replies Odd. "Oh, I see them." Odd waves to their guests: defenders of Earthrealm and Outworld, Mileena and Hanzo Hasahi(AKA Scorpion) "Sorry we were late. Milly had to go to the dentist. She bit down onto a jerk who tried to attack her too hard," explains the fiery ninja. "No sweat. At least you made it," says Odd's fiancee. "So, you're planning on where to have your wedding," asks Mileena. "Where do you both enjoy going?" Odd gets an idea. "We could have it at Kadic. That's where we met." "Good thinking," says Scorpion. "Now, lets-" He is interrupted by an explosion. The four look and see a full white bald dude with a red chakra on his forhead, firing green skulls at bystanders. "Quan Chi? Here," say Mileena and Scorpion. "You guys look like you've seen a ghost," says Sissi. "He's the one who massacred my clan, family, and me, as well as killed Mileena's father," explains Hanzo. "Though I thought I removed his head from his shoulders." "Scorpion and Odd Della Robbia," says the pale sorcerer. "Come out and fight!" "Why does he want me? I hardly know the dude," asks the blonde comedian. "Never the less, we must challenge him. Milly, protect Sissi." Odd and Scorpion face Quan Chi. "Greetings, Mr. Hasahi and Della Robbia." "Why are you here, sorcerer? Didn't I kill you a couple of years ago?" "I was revived by a new ally, one your friend here might know. A kind of enenra." "What's that," asks Odd. "A creature made entirely smoke," explains Scorpion. "Smoke? (gasps) XANA." "Correct. Your "XANA" revived me, and in return for freeing him from the digital world, he grants me the power to destroy you and Scorpion." They engage in full-on warfare; Odd fires off his laser arrows, Scorpion tries to burn and use his martial arts and kunai skills to pwn Quan Chi, but he evades all attacks and subdues them his spinal bonds; spinal columns that wrap around the body of his opponents. "You will never beat us, Quan Chi," says Odd. "I'm not beating you. I'm just buying time as my revenants capture Mrs. Delmas and Mileena." They look with rage on their face as see their lovers captured; Sissi, with her hands tied behind her back and her mouth taped shut, and Mileena, straight jacketed and muzzled to prevent her from biting anyone. "If you want them to live, come and find us." Quan Chi and his captors and revenants escape through a portal to the Netherealm. The spinal bonds on Scorpion and Odd crumble to dust. "We have to go after them," says Odd. "We have to be better prepare before we go to the Netherealm," says Scorpion as he takes Odd to his lair showing him his load of authentic weapons. Odd choses a katana and nunchuks. "We must find others for our battle," say Scorpion. "And I know just the people."
