Chapter 4: The Day of the Fateful Encouter

After 7 years of training under the wing of Princess Kitana, as Ichigo Kurosaki is now a fully trained Edenian Warrior. It's been a tiresome 7 years of training with her highness; he didn't think that she was this tough on training on him. He learned how to hunt animals, fight monster of the NetherRealm that came out of the portal, different martial arts from different guards throughout the realm. Throughout the 7 years, of training he became rather close to the Princess and there were rumors of the two becoming lovers when some of the guards see them having dinner at the main hall together.

He mastered his swordsmanship that is actually the powers of a Shinigami or Soul Reaper; a long lost race of supernatural warriors in Outworld and his other powers as a Quincy; another long lost race of supernatural warriors of Outworld that focus using a power in him called Reiatsu, a form of chi in a individual person. Ichigo is actually the only child of both races and is truly one of the most potential Earthrealm warriors to fight against the forces of darkness as Raiden would drop by to see his progress.

Ichigo was currently residing in his room in the castle that Kitana rules.

"Zzzzz..." Ichigo is dead asleep after training nonstop for the past couple of hours.

A knock on the door, he doesn't answer.

"Zzzzz..."

"Ichigo are you there?" A feminine voice said behind the door.

"Zzzz..." He is still dead asleep on his comfortable bed. He moans and groans from turning to his side to get comfortable.

"Are you there?" The female opens the door as it was Princess Kitana, she looks to see him sleeping. 'I didn't think he was this tired.' She walks up to the orange haired young man and lowers her mask. "Wake up..." She says warmly.

"Mmmmhm." He groans as he turns to his other side on his bed. She had a coy smile on her face as she takes a seat next to him.

"Please get up my strawberry..." She whispers seductively into his ear as Ichigo's hand started moving towards her waist and he gets up.

"How many times do I need to tell you that my name isn't strawberry?" He gets up properly and wraps his arms around her waist. "So...what's up?" He asks tiredly.

"I figured that you want to get some good news." He looks at her confusingly, "After 7 years training you and taking you under my wing; you can go back home to Earthrealm." He's gives a surprising look at the princess

"But Kitana..." He tries to reason with her but she places a finger to his lips, silencing him.

"I understand that you don't want to go back home to Earthrealm as you feel you're home is here in Edenia but I think you are most needed back home in Earthrealm to help lead a new generation of defenders along with the old defenders of Earthrealm." She turns around to see Ichigo's face and caresses his cheeks. "I know that you have unfinished business there, questions that have been on your mind since you were born. After all; I got to know someone that I would fall for and care about." She smiles sadly as the two would stare at each other for the longest time until Ichigo decided to capture the lips of the princess of Edenia and he would fall onto his back with the two of them would not be disturbed for the next couple of hours as the two lovers got under the sheets of Ichigo's bed.

Kitana would moan from their kiss as she was flipped on her back as Ichigo is now on top of the princess, who was discarding some of the princess's clothes from her boots, to her hair pins and finally pieces of her armor from her shoulders to her neck.

"Ichigo..." she moans as Ichigo would go on to kissing her neck as Kitana would wrap her legs around the orange haired young man. She could not contain her enjoyment quietly as she felt Ichigo removing the lower clothing of her pants, revealing a black themed bra and panties.

"Getting a little excited aren't we princess." He says huskily to her ear and continues to pleasure the princess of Edenia, who just merely smiles to her lover as the couple decided to show their affection for one another as Ichigo's room was filled with moans and panting.

After two had sex with each other, Kitana snuggles up to her lover's chest. "Please be safe, Ichigo. I don't want to lose anyone else so close to me." She begs him as a single tear came out of her left eye, which Ichigo whips away.

"Don't worry Kitana, I won't die that easily. After all, I was trained under a beautiful, strong and brave warrior princess of Edenia." He complements his lover and wraps his arms around her waist, kissing her forehead.

"Love you..." She whispers as she falls asleep.

"Love you too, Kitana."

After training in the military for the past 7 years under the supervision of her parents, Cassie Cage is now finally a Spec ops; due to already knowing the other realms from her mother's stories of the war between realms years ago. She is appointed as First Sergeant in the US Army under the supervision of her mother, Colonel Sonya Blade.

Cassie is currently resting in her bunker until a loud thunderous sound outside. She instantly jumps on her feet from the loud boom and rushes outside to see her mentor, Raiden.

"Is Cassie Cage here?" The thunder god asks the soldiers. Everyone that is in the Special Forces knows of the Thunder God is the current leader of the forces of light.

"Yes sir, she..." The one officer says as Cassie pushes him aside.

"I'm here." Cassie says, "What are you doing here Raiden?" She asks him.

"I figured that you want to meet him." Cassie looks at her mentor confusingly. "Ichigo." He turns to his left side as the orange haired young man walks up to the group. "This is Ichigo Kurosaki, one of the new defenders of EarthRealm. Ichigo, meet Cassie Cage; the daughter of the Special forces leader Sonya Blade and Johnny Cage." Raiden introduced the orange haired young man to the young woman in front of him.

"So you're that guy that was all over the news 7 years ago." Cassie pointed at him, "Heard you disappeared and went into hiding but I didn't expect you to be one of us." Cassie says with a half smirk on her face, "and rather handsome in person."

"Did I miss something?" He asks quietly to the thunder god, who shakes his head. "Nice to uh...meet you Cassie." He extends his left hand to her and the two shake hands.

"Likewise Kurosaki. I hope being on Edenia didn't change your point of view on EarthRealm." Cassie replies back to him.

"Don't worry Cassie; it feels the same thing in Edenia. Feels good to be home." Ichigo looks at the military base and sees the aircrafts, helicopters, vans and other military equipment. "So, you are really the daughter of that crappy actor Johnny Cage?" Ichigo asks the female, who chuckles.

"Yes, Johnny Cage is indeed my father. He's still a bad actor but he's my goof ball of a father and I love him." She replies back to him, "If you want; I can show you around California. It's been 7 years since you been home, even though your home is Japan."

"I like that." And soon, the two would walk away and have a pleasant conversation, leaving the officers and the thunder god by themselves.

"Should we?" Raiden waves it off.

"No don't. Let them get acquainted. Ichigo doesn't have a family for most of his life. With him bonding with Cassie for awhile will let him open up to this generation of defenders he'll find a new purpose in his life. The princess of Edenia would like for him to have a 'family' he should have had. I took the liberty of asking Sonya and Johnny to talk to him when the time comes. He will have that desire for a family here along with a future wife to protect his world from the forces of darkness." Raiden answers the officer.

"Yes sir." The officer saluted to the thunder god as he leaves the base.
