Earthrealm, Iga, Japan
Hanzo Hasashi was practicing his Hapkido in the courtyard of the Shirai Ryu temple, all that filled his thoughts were finding the sorcerer Quan Chi, he was the reason Hanzo had suffered the worst tragedy in his life. As he through his kicks and punches into the cold night air all he could imagine was his blows reaching Quan Chi, all Hanzo wished for was to beat Quan Chi to his knees and have him beg for mercy like the coward he was. This is what would bring Hanzo inner peace. Finally snapping under the anger he let out a cry of anger, letting some of his alter ego take hold for a moment. All the while Mileena watched, admiring his skill and his desire for revenge which she would use to her advantage.
After Hanzo had calmed, he took a long deep breath and went for a walk to a place he visited every day, it was a place that drove him to continue living. He knelt before two headstones and hung his head, he then placed his hands on both graves and let tears escape him, Hanzo had beared the guilt of not being able to protect his family when they had met their deaths. Avenging them was the only reason he had for living, its the only reason he agreed to be resurrected as a hellspawn. As Hanzo's hands lowered still on the graves, Mileena keeping her distance could see the names on the two grave stones, they were Kana and Jubei, a rose in front of Kana's and a teddy bear in front of Jubei's. Mileena did feel a slight bit of sympathy for Hanzo, having lost everything he had held so dear to him.
"I swear to you both I will make him pay for what did to you both, I will go to hell and back and bring him before your graves, after I lost you both I promised I would kill him for you, I just wish my judgment had not been twisted and misguided, I killed an innocent man because of it, somehow some way he will feel what I felt when I lost yout two" Hanzo said to himself tears escaping him no matter how hard he fought to keep them in.
"There may be a way I can help you achieve you goal Hanzo" Mileena said coming out of hiding.
"YOU, what the hell do you want?" Scorpion asked furiously the tears in his eyes previously had quickly disappeared.
"Calm down Hanzo, I come to offer you something I know you want, however I will need you to do a favor for me before I give you what you want" Mileena said in a smooth almost seductive voice.
"What could you possibly offer me, I have no interest in power or prestige, I also have no interest doing any favors for you Outworlds concerns are no longer mine, I was freed from that kind of life a while ago" Hanzo said in a more calmer tone.
"That may be true, but I can offer you so much more, but I can't give you what you want for nothing of course, all I'm asking you to do would be to do what you do best, killing people in the most terrifying way possible, if you do that I promise you I will bring Quan Chi before you, no tricks Hanzo I promise" Mileena said in a very cute almost childish voice.
Hanzo quietly got up and turned around, and almost in an instant lunged at Mileena with hell fire behind him and tried to land bone crushing punches to which Mileena deflected all except one which landed to Mileena's face knocking her back a few feet. Mileena got her bearings and got in her fighting stance, the two combatants ran towards each other each trying to land a variety of punches and kick to each other, neither one being able to land an effective blow. The combat was intense Mileena didn't really know why Hanzo had attacked her, however she did enjoy when Hanzo was enraged, in a weird way it kind of turned her on, she could see every inch of Hanzo's muscles flex with every strike he tried to land. Eventually Mileena sweep kicked Hanzo to the ground, she pulled out one of her Sai and stabbed the ground inches away from Hanzo's face. Mileena noticed she was ontop of Hanzo but didn't seem to mind, she brung her face close to Hanzo's. Hanzo could feel her soft silky black hair tickle his face, he took in the smell, it was intoxicating, but Hanzo kept his cool.
"I'm not lying to you Hanzo, I promise you if you fight for me I will bring you Quan Chi and you will be free to do as you please with him, and maybe a little more if you do a good job" Mileena said tracing her finger along his jawline.
Mileena got up from on top of Hanzo, Hanzo did the same and put his hood and mask over his face.
"My name is Scorpion" Scorpion said agreeing to Mileena's terms. And with that Mileena grinned.
