Lovers Fate: A Mortal Kombat Story
Chapter 1: Fallen Empress
Raiden stood before the Elder Gods, Shao Kahn's helmet in his right hand. He had allowed tge evil emperor to merge the realms, thereby breaking the rules set forth by the Elder Gods. They punished him severely, giving Raiden their combined power he defeated Shao Kahn and killed him. Now Raiden appeared before the Elder Gods, as he held Shao Kahn's helmet he stood boldly and gracefully. "Elder Gods, I stand here before you. Here my request." He told them. "Lord Raiden what do you seek?" Their combined voices echoed through the temple. "I have defeated Shao Kahn, he is dead. I ask that you return the fallen Earthrealm warriors to the mortal world and release them from Quan Chi's hold." Raiden replied. "Their deaths were unintentional and unfortunate. We shall grant your request, you keep them ready to defend Earthrealm again in case another threat rises." The Elder Gods told Raiden. He bowed to them and left the temple, he transported himself back to the Wu Shi Academy where the fallen Earthrealm warriors stood resurrected. Liu Kang, Kitana, Sub-Zero, Nightwolf, Jax Briggs, Jade, Stryker, and Smoke. They looked at each other surprised, Raiden approached his fallen friends. "Lord Raiden, are we back?" Liu Kang asked. "Yes Liu Kang, it is good to see you. Sorry about accidentally killing you." Raiden told Liu Kang. "Sorry about attacking you Lord Raiden." Liu Kang replied bowing to the thunder god. Suddenly a portal opened up, one person stepped out of it. The new empress Mileena. She looked at the Earthrealm warriors and scoffed, she put her left hand on her hip. "Step aside earth realmers. I'm taking over Earthralm." She said firmly. The warriors charged at her like they did Sindel, she quickly and non lethally took them down until only Raiden remained. "I don't think so." Raiden said ready for kombat.
Mileena fought hard against Raiden, she had her two Sai's n her hands. She teleported and kicked the thunder god in the face, he retaliated with a bolt of lighting. The Tarkaten princess fell down, she shook it off and got back to her feet. Mileena charged at Raiden with her Sai's ready to stab, she reached the thunder god when he suddenly reversed the move. Raiden grabbed the Sai's out of her hands and shoved the first one into her throat severing her jugular vein, he then shoved the second in her skull puncturing her brain. The evil princess fell down defeated, Raiden looked in apathy. "That's all of Shao Kahn's henchman, his royal family of monsters are completely wiped out." He turned around to face the earthrealm warriors, they all cheered at him. "Nobody will threaten this realm any longer. Earth is safe from the perils of evil." Raiden told them. Kung Lao and Liu Kang approached the thunder god, they bowed to Raiden who bowed in return. "With earthrealm safe, we no longer need the Mortal Kombat Tournament." Liu Kang said in excitement. "No, nobody in the other five realms will threaten us. I brokered a truce between the Netherrealm and us, Shinnok will keep his end of the bargain or face judgment of the Elder Gods." Raiden replied. "Come on everyone, let's go home." He told the warriors before leading them out of the temple.
Mileena awoke on the ground, all around her was fire and smoke. She stood up to see where she was, she was surrounded by people being tortured. This was the Netherrealm, she was literally in Hell. She explored the hot and scary atmosphere, her body sweated from the heat despite her very revealing attire that left her half naked. "I am a clone, I don't have a soul. How can I be here?" She asked herself. "Because I resurrected you." A voice told her from behind. Quan Chi stepped toward her, she readied her Sai's for battle. "What do you want with me sorcerer?" She asked him. "You have much skill, with my help and powers you can have much more. There is someone who I know, someone who has grown a dislike of me. Go see him on the reaches to the south, he can teach you the ways of the Shirai Ryu. Along with the ways of the hellspawns." Quan Chi replied. Mileena nodded knowing who he was talking about, she put away her weapons and walked away to find Scorpion. She walked through the depths of Hell looking at her hideous surroundings, a figure stopped her in her path. "Halt, where are you going?" Shinnok asked her. "Out of my way, I need to find Scorpion." She replied. "You will find him down this path, he has much to teach you Mileena. Come find me when you have finished training. I have a plan for you two." Shinnok said stepping aside. Mileena nodded and continued, she walked to the end of the path where the Shirai Ryu ninja sat in silence.
