She stands there for a moment then realizes that "right your hands do you not have" I shake my head "there in here I'm in a straight Jacket don't really have the option to take it off and these vines aren't the most safe tools.
Aaron freezes kicking Sonya and jax back "why you do " a fan goes flying by Aaron sticking into the ground "normally I wouldn't do such a thing but" she looks at the vines she severed from Aaron "it seems to have disarmed you" Aaron growls a vine shooting from his back grabbing the fan and tossing it back "the arm things getting kind of old" he says the two stare at him for a moment "oh your arms " the two bow "sorry for the" they stop "wait you three are not allow to leave the island.

Winner Sonya and Aaron.
POV:Aaron
"Look our rides here" Sonya says waving at it I look over seeing it first the fireball firing at the chopper I try to shoot my vines out but I feel something different gush out instead I look seeing blood on the ground my vision going blurry I hear Sonya yell no seeing the two who had come out "fuck" I growl slumping to the ground. "So since he was passed out I think that means I won" my eyes shoot open I shoot up looking around Kano Shang Tsung where are they what happen. I look over seeing five people standing there "your awake good to see you didn't die from blood loss even Raiden's shit didn't work on you" Jax said I stand up looking around "you see how they act now this is why we need to fight against them" I again stare at him "I again will join you if I find out what side there on till then I'l help you if it suits what I need to do seeing as I exceeded the helpful meter today mine telling me where my fucking! Room is please and thank you. Everyone stares at him "right you did say that sorry for pushing you can I ask you this though" he says "fine" I say "will you kill anyone protecting earthrealm" I look at him if he could see my grin he'd get my answer "I'm a serial killer who's been stuck in a hole for far to long I don't know who I'll kill but someone's gonna die from these hands we should hopes its only the target huh.
They point me towards my room guess Shang Tsung told them it I walk all the way to my room stopping a bald man was standing in front of my door "do you want something" I ask he nods "my name is" I shake my head "look I'm tired tell me what you want tell me your name tomorrow" he nods "we want you to help us" I stare at him "with" I ask "Shao Kahn need's warriors like you to fight for him to take over earthrealm" I nod "so your the other side then " I say he nods "like I told those guy's I find out what sides he's on then I'll think about it till then I'll help you if it suits me other wise" I shrug he sighs "then make sure to kill as many earth realm warriors as you can" I shrug "was told not to do that but whatever you say tattoos " I say opening the door with my feet and slamming it on his face. I hop on the bed closing my eyes every thing seems to become quiet I hear buzzing everywhere around me I open my eyes the rooms dark now is it that late out. A chuckle I stand up looking a girl standing there looking at the vine that I manage to summon "you don't remember me funny" she says touching the vine it begins to wilt dying I freeze "your the one who destroyed my vines back there" I growl . She begins laughing "don't blame me for that you push your body over your limit meaning you crippled yourself taking out those many at once risky flashy and almost cost you your life. I stand up walking towards her "who are you then" she smiles "you already know about me I've been inside you you've read about me in books. She lifts her hands in the air a black fog coming out swarms of bugs and rats fall out "my favorite was the black death they had know idea what hit them blaming god saying he betrayed them.
I shake my head "your disease " she nods "bingo but it's Plague" she says extending her hand "I wouldn't touch you if my hands were free" she smiles "awe come on you've been sick before I already know where to go to hurt you the most what to do to destroy you from the inside" she says I growl "oh scary your power can't do anything nature got to you first I came here to give you a different gift" she says walking forward unzipping my mask she licks her lips "to bad you where this thing all the time" she says leaning forward I go to move but she's to fast she kiss me deeply I feel my body become weak fast like a burning sensation through my entire body I feel something fire into me my eyes go wide as she releases me I fall to the ground throwing up I look the pukes black "what did you do" I growl there's some of the black fluid on her face she licks it smiling "just a gift from me to you" I feel something pull me down the puke became huge pulling me down "shit no dammit" I look at her she waves blowing a kiss as I fire into the darkness.
I shoot up panting looking around, I shake my head sanding up I look at the ground a snake is wrapping around my leg I stand there looking at it waiting it sinks into my skin turning into black fluid from before I sigh looks like that wasn't a dream after all I walk over to the door opening it with my feet. I follow everyone else feeling a tap on my shoulder I turn around "Johnny" I ask confused "hey wanna check out the match together" he ask I sigh "you won't stop unless I do so lets go" he nods smacking me on the back "alright then lets go. I follow looking around no one's around so I guess its alright "the match started actually awhile ago one of the guards against this fire dude. I stare at him fire dude what the fuck I growl that might prove to be a problem I don't know how to control what plague gave me and my vines and plants can't go up against flames I look seeing the two fight one was a man with a large hat that seem to simmer from the edges.
The two fought for awhile I stood there scanning the area trying to get a good feel of the place I look seeing someone in a cloak standing on the roof with a grin on there face someone stood a bit away I couldn't see them as well but they were there that's for sure. I start walking around stopping as the man with the hat is kicked at me "Scorpion wins" Shang Tsung says I "your next challenger will be them" he says snapping his finger the cloak figure flips of the roof landing they grin a shimmer coming from under there cloak it has to be him. "The battle will begin later for the time being relax " he says before standing up and walking off I growl no way in hell is this hot head getting my kill I see that Scorpion guy talking to Raiden I hear something about Sub Zero someone or something don't know yet but it seems important to him. "Aaron" I turn seeing jax and Sonya standing there "did you two need something" I ask "I don't feel like we thank you" I shake my head "I remember being thanked and then offered a hand shake that didn't really help with anything. She nods Jax takes a step forward "so what do you think about that cloak guy" he ask I tense up"I'll take care of them even if I have to die don't worry about them" I say I catch them glancing at me grinning bastard he's taunting me I'd rather not slaughter everyone around I don't think I could manage here these guy's are monster's in there own name even for a serial killer.
I take a few steps towards the cloak figure before I get close something fly's by my face I look down seeing a large blade had hit the ground I look over seeing a man with blade arms he glares at me was he the one next to this bastard "A challenge " I look over seeing the old bastard looking with a smile "yes my blades will taste his blood" I growl walking forward "try me you over sized kitchen set " I growl at him two blades fire from his arms he runs forward swinging at me.

Winner Aaron Fatality
Aaron walks over to the straight jacket picking it up and putting it back on he feels the rip parts being replaced by the vines he turns towards Shang Tsung who only smiles he shakes his head walking off.
POV:Aaron
I lean against the wall one of the vines unzipping my mask I throw up looking down the black fluid again I over did it with that one as well I shouldn't try using as much. A laugh from behind me I turn around the two are standing there the woman in green and plague. Plague smiles "that was amazing loved how that thing tasted thanks for dinner" she said "stop fighting so much take a break there'll be a few hours before the next battle starts try to let your body rest if you push any more the roots will rip your heart apart or she might eat you" Plague laughs "if he keeps up what he's doing he won't taste good I'm not gonna eat you" she said "then tell me what do you two want these powers all of this it making me annoyed I can't even kill the person I'm trying to kill the woman in green sighs "we wish we could tell you more but we can't just know where on your sighed Aaron trust us. I look over "someone's coming " I say to the two I already know they vanished I turn the corner looking two men and a woman walk by they look at me nodding I stare back one red one yellow one blue interesting. I sigh once they pass walking around "hey Aaron" I look over Liu Kang stands there "lord Raiden like to see you" he says.
Out of curiosity I follow him looking around do we eat here I think to myself seeing a few tables and people eating looking at around I notice alot of them staring at one another or looking over here I stop a bit away Jax Johnny Sonya Raiden and that hat guy are sitting at one table talking to each other two seats are open are one of those for me I sigh walking over as Liu kang sits next to Raiden I sit next to Johnny and Sonya looking around "Raiden did you need me for something" he nods "you don't want Scorpion to fight that cloak figure right" I look up nodding "then all you have to do is stop Scorpion from killing Sub-Zero " I remember them talking about them but didn't actually know it was an actual person. I nod "and when do you think he'll try " he shakes his head "just make sure your there I've seen some things and I think you being there might help Scorpion control his rage.
I shrug don't know how me being there will calm fire boy but whatever he thinks will stop him helps me "fine I'll be there when it happens" I say he nods "have you eaten anything" I look down I don't really look thin in the straight jacket but still I shake my head "there's some food on the large table I'll grab it for you" Johnny says patting me again on the back. I sigh do these people forget I'm a serial killer "so how human are you" Jax ask me I look at him shrugging "its just that not most people can do what you did back there" I nod "most people aren't crazy or at least not to my level of insanity" "you look pretty controlled for someone who's insane. I nod at her "of course I do three years in an asylum can put your mind close to breaking as much as it can fix like my case. Johnny comes back setting a plate down "the Johnny special I pick some of the best food for ya" I stare at it "its not grass or anything like that so thanks Johnny" he nods one of the vines come out unzipping the mask grabbing a knife the other one grabbing the fork cutting into the meat then placing it in my mouth.
They stare at me "what" I ask confused "you always eat like that" Johnny ask me I shake my head "most the time I attack it like you would an animal but they put this mask on me and fed me" I said taking a bite of the food and swallowing it "right we haven't seen your face what do you look like" Jax says "that is true would you mind taking the mask off so we could see" Raiden ask I shake my head "I put the straight jacket back on meaning I can tae it off unless I rip it from my head with these vines. I sigh "what if one of us do it" Liu Kang says "my vines might kill you or you'll get covered in that black fluid not sure what idiot would agree to do that" I take another bite of the food "besides I'm the one who put the straight jacket back on. I finish the food standing up "why you put it back on if you don't mind me asking" Raiden ask I sigh "self control so far I can keep myself from killing with my hands like this but you saw what happened out there not the friendliest of sorts with my hands free.
I walk out of the room looking another Tarkatan looks almost the same but he seems alot stronger than the other one he looks at me walking forward "Baraka " he stops I look over a four armed...woman was talking to him. He growls walking off with the woman I sigh don't really want to pick a fight with another if he already seen my trick as well I continue walking I could barley see out of the one eye hole no way in hell can I see well now I sigh stopping its the three I saw from before with someone else talking they nod walking off in different directions if I follow one of the guy's they might force me into another fight but then again so would the girl but then again she walking towards me I sigh might as well right I walk forward "hey " I say to her "yes" she ask we stare at each other for a moment in silence "can I ask who you were talking to back there" she sighs "you saw that then" I nod she walks a bit away "fine then you leave me no choice" she turns around a blue thing coming at me I jump to the side looking ice wait a moment sub zero like cold is she sub zero "stop wait" I say running forward dunking under one of her ice blast again getting close "stop I need to keep you safe" I growl she walks back "what are you talking about" I sigh "I have no fucking idea but if I keep you safe from fire head I'll get closer to my goal" she nods "but why would you need to protect me " I shake my head "no when you get into trouble with them I'll stop them from hurting you" Im so glad I found them would have been hard not knowing who sub zero was.
Hey gonna end it there sorry if no actual harem is progressing here and if things are progressing fast but you always got to keep the ball rolling if you like it or not thanks for reading also if you have any suggestion or just want to say something feel free to PM me or review I'll get on it as soon as I can. Making that clear I haven't decided on anyone yet just been setting up bridges with others even if it looks like he's getting even the bit close to anyone doesn't mean anything when I've figure out at least a few I'll show them might make a few people sigh or might make a few people get angry and I'm sorry if it does. Anyways Aaron's powers even if he can use and recreate the vines at will it puts alot of constriction on the roots surrounding his heart that was also explained in the story I wanted to make sure everyone knows that it takes alot of energy for him to even make of puddle of that black fluid that is also his blood the poison from the kiss and the plagues cause in the past are force actually through his blood stream making it harder for him to stay in non serial killer mode and makes how long he can keep using his abilities there's side effects like the blood shooting from his back and throwing up the actual plague and more actual ones if it becomes more serious. Thats the end of my rant sorry that this is so long thank you for reading and see you later.
