It was sundown as the boat carrying Earthrealm's warriors was heading towards Shang Tsung's island for the tournament. Ichigo was standing on the railing looking at the sea then to his three allies: Raiden, Khameleon, and Liu Kang. The latter was an adult of Chinese origin with a red and black monk robe, red pants and black shoes, a red headband, spiked gauntlets, and long black hair. When Ichigo first met him he felt Liu was like a combination of Byakuya and Renji, a prospect which he thought was impossible but was proven wrong. Some of his training included sparring with him and Kung Lao which developed into a sort of rivalry, but luckily they were on friendly terms with each other. In his short time in the alternate realm the soul reaper had experienced so much and was now determined to protect Earthrealm even more. He allowed himself to drift back to the time when he revisited his inner world for the second time since his escape...
Ichigo was back in the forest where he saw the realm's spirit still as calm and beautiful as ever. "So you represent Earthrealm am I right?" he inquired her.
"Yes, here the world is lush and clean representing your humanity that you first started as." she explained.
"So, do you have a name or do I have to give you one?" Ichigo asked the spirit.
"No, but I would like one please." she asked nicely. Ichigo took a moment to contemplate a suitable name for the forest spirit.
"How about Hahaoya?" he suggested and was relieved as the spirit nodded. "Ok then, when do we begin?" he asked her.
"You don't have to do anything; with the others you just have to accept us and learn how to summon us is all." Hahaoya assured him.
"Alright, I guess I better get to the rest of the spirits then. See ya." Ichigo replied.
"Good-bye Ichigo and remember that your humanity lies within you." were her final words as the world shifted to the infernal domain.
"Welcome to the Netherrealm loverboy." said the seductive spirit as she circled the young man while swaying her hips.
"Thanks. So can you tell me how this realm is connected to me?" he asked.
"The Netherrealm is like our version of hell where the bad and evil souls are sent to be punished harshly. To use its power you must tap into your hollow abilities and use them without restraint!" she said joyously.
"Yeah right! I've had enough experiences to know what happens when I do that!" Ichigo retorted, giving her an accusing glare.
"Oh relax, sweetie pie, with me you'll be in control the entire time," she said before levitating up in the air. "So what shall call me, oh great and powerful one?" she said jokingly as Ichigo thought of a name while tapping his chin.
"How about Rivu Aiasan?" he offered making the demonic spirit's eyes gleam with interest.
"Ooh, sounds exotic! I'll take it!" she accepted as the world begins to change. "Bye-bye, Ichigo. Take care not to die on me..." Rivu said before she shifted to the next spirit.
The spirit was the short girl that was wailing on him the entire time and she had a stoic look on her face. "Uhhh…hello?" Ichigo tried communicating with the spirit only to recieve head-butt to his face knocking him down. "Ouch! What the hell is wrong with you!" he yelled in indignation only to revieve an annoyed groan from the spirit.
"What did you expect, Strawberry? You're in the Chaosrealm." she said incredulously.
"Okay, one: what's the Chaosrealm, and two: don't call me that!" he roared. "My name means, 'one who protects!'"
"The Chaosrealm is the place where chaos and anarchy is the way to go," the spirit answered while ignoring Ichigo's outburst. "This is where absolute change and freedom is how you roll." she finished before doing a cartwheel on a large floating rock.
"So what do I have to do to use you?" Ichigo asked, rubbing his sore nose absently.
"Well, that's easy. Just don't care about anything, even life or death; don't go with the flow while using your fullbringer abilities. Now," she faced Ichigo with a cocked eyebrow. "Are you gonna give me my name or what, fruit-loop?" she smirked smugly causing a vein mark to appear on the substitute's forehead.
He relaxed and decided to get it over with. "Your name will be Fuwa." he declared.
"Hmm, sounds cute and dangerous at the same time!" she gleefully said before abrubtly ending their chat. "Hey check this out!" Fuwa said as she twist her bones and muscles in ways that would be lethal to any normal human. All Ichigo could do was turn green and nearly vomit as the realms changed.
Now in Outworld, he was back in the village enjoying the onigiri and baozi his spirit made. "This may be my favorite realm and I actually wanted to leave it" Ichigo said, his earlier queasiness forgotten as he scarfed down the food like a starving man.
"Outworld wasn't always bad," the spirit of Outworld explained. "It was once a normal realm until its rulers decided to expand its influence. So they conquered and combined the different realms until its borders were vast and in turmoil."
By the time she finished her tale Ichigo was finished eating. "Don't worry about it, Ai Lee. I promise that won't happen anymore!" Ichigo swore confidently.
"What did you call me?" the spirit asked, wondering if she heard it right.
"Ai Lee, the name I'm giving you. I mean you have to have one right?" Ichigo offered in explaination, only to feel something soft wrapped around him tight and smothering his face.
"Oh thank you thank you thank you thank you!" Ai cried embracing him joyously to her bosom, oblivious to the fact she was effectively cutting off Ichigo's oxygen supply despite his desperate attempts to escape, wiggling about with his arms flailing wildly. When she let go he greedily gulped up as much air as he can til he wasn't light headed anymore. Ai Lee didn't notice this as she continued speaking. "So, to use me just concentrate and focus all your energy to the blade and then you'll deadliest combatant who ever lived!" she said as the world transitioned again.
"I'll be the best I can be, Ai lee! just watch." Ichigo assured her.
With a smile, the spirit replied with, "I know you will."
"Ready for your orders?" the next spirit said brusqely as Ichigo nodded, ready to see what needed to be done. "Here in Orderrealm or Seido we value law, order, and structure. You must be the exact opposite of your Chaosrealm self. This form will be the easiest of them all since it relies on your Shinigami powers and you have been using them the most out of all your abilities." she explained.
"Okay but why are you all serious and uptight all the time? I mean you need to relax at least every now and then." Ichigo shrugged as the spirit looked back confused.
"Because it's the law and we must abide by it" she replied matter-of-factly.
"Listen, I know you're not trying to be a rule breaker or anything but you don't have to be so strict about it." he placated making her face soften.
"I know, my apologies. And you're right, there are times I wished that Seido would just loosen its leash a little." she said dejectedly as he placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Don't worry you can loosen up as much as you want around me" Ichigo said making a smile appear the enforcers face.
"You know you still haven't given me a name yet." She noted.
"I know just the one: Kishi." he said giving her the name.
"Well then go out there and show them that no one is above law" Kishi commanded as Ichigo jokingly saluted.
"Aye, aye ma'am!"
The last spirit was in deep thought on her knees as she sensed her host approaching. "Ichigo, so good to see you again." she said standing up and approaching him.
"Judging from my last weapon and spirit, I'd say you don't represent any particular realm but rather you're the replacement of the old man for my Quincy powers." he guessed.
"You are correct," she confirmed. "You will have access to more abilities and your weapon by being pure and always being positive like Edenia" she said gently with a smile on her face.
"Well then, all that's left is to name you." he said as she nodded. "Then it will be…Reinheit."
"A good choice, my dear." she said while walking along with Ichigo. "Be careful about the journey ahead and remember this warning when changing the timeline, 'History abhors a paradox.'" Reinheit said as she placed a kiss on his forehead and left the soul reaper to leave his inner world.
"Ichigo!" Liu Kang called out to him, shaking him from his thoughts. "We've arrived."
Ichigo looked to the island cliffs above as the ship docked. Walking on the beach he observed his surroundings, taking in the ancient architecture. Looking around further, his head snapped to a single spot where he thought he saw a flash of pink.
"Mileena?" he murmured. Thinking it was just his minds playing games with him Ichigo walked on only for the young princess to come out of her hiding spot and stare at the departing male.
"Ich~i~go." she said in a child sing-song like voice.
The feast in the main hall was huge as everybody was tending to their own meals. Liu Kang was admiring someone at the head table except that same person and her friend was glaring at the orange haired teen, who was doing his best to ignore them.
"What I'd give to have Khameleon's invisibility right about now..." he muttered to himself as the feast continued despite Jade and Kitana's obvious annoyance at him.
They moved to the courtyard that night as the Tournament was ready to begin. As Ichigo looked at the kombatants he recognized some from his visions. One was a white male with well-kept brown hair, seem to be well built as well despite the clothes he had on, wearing a Tux suit with the tie undone and a set of expensive sunglasses on his face waiting impatiently. He recognized from some of the movies he saw while training that this was the action movie star Johnny Cage.
Nearby was a woman wearing a short, tight Special Forces vest that goes displayed her midriff with two straps buckled up along with an official looking I.D. badge. Around her neck she wore a set of dog tags. On her upper arms she wore arm bands, some of which form Xs over her biceps and triceps. She also wore dark green-and-black leather pants, a holster, knee-pads, and high-heeled, combat-style boots. He thought her name was Sonia or Sonya Blade, it was all fuzzy to him.
He noticed there was that guy Khameleon fought at the portal in Outworld. He was standing next to a man wearing a ninja suit which bore two swords that looked earily like stingers on his back and a kunai attached to a rope tied to his belt while his shoulder pads and mouthpiece were molded after scorpions. His eyes were unnaturally white.
Next were guys who seemed to part of the same group: one was an Asian warrior wearing a red and black gi with technological advances like a jetpack and hidden conventional weaponry, the second a Botswana warrior with a different gi in yellow and black with no tech on him whatsoever, and the third wearing a traditional blue-garbed ninja-like uniform with a mask through which the wearer was exhaling chilled air. There was also a middle aged Indian standing alone, his expression alone disuaded any thought of messing with him. As Ichigo was pondering the rest of the kombatants he noticed Raiden began to clutch his head in pain; both he and Liu went to check on him.
"Lord Raiden, are you okay?" Liu asked.
Raiden looked over at the concerned warriors. "I am fine," he said. "It's just some strange visions."
Raiden was going over the unsettling visions in his head; he saw people fighting and dying trying to stop Shao Khan and then he saw a warrior with a red tattoo and skin as white as ash. Ichigo, himself, wondered if his own visions coincided with Raiden's. Just then Raiden heard the sound of breaking glass and looked down at the amulet he kept on him at all times to discover that the gem was cracked. Liu Kang looked upon Raiden's amulet in dread.
"Your amulet."
Raiden was, himself, concerned but at the moment decided that it wasn't important. He instead turned his attention to the stage in front of him and replied "It's nothing Liu Kang, Ichigo Kurosaki. The tournament is about to begin."
On the stage Shang Tsung was approaching his throne accompanied by Baraka, Kitana, and Jade. As they stopped Shang Tsung signaled the drummers to stop.
"Kombatants!" the old man announced in a raspy force as the monks in front of him began to sit. "I am Shang Tsung. In the coming days each of you will fight. Some of you have come of their own volition, others were lead here by chance."
As Shang Tsung continued speaking two warriors failed to pay attention. Johnny Cage turned to Sonya Blade and tried his hand at seducing her.
"Hey, beautiful. Johnny Cage."
The blond just looked at the fool and coldly replied, "Good for you."
The star was stunned but tried to continue. "What?! "Massive Strike", "Citizens Cage", "Ninja Mime" none of those ring a bell?"
The woman in question just ignored the idiot until she saw the person she came here to find. "Kano..." Sonya said with venom in her voice.
The movie star looked confused and said, "'Kano?' Wasn't in that one." Ichigo could only groan at where he was watching the two at it wondering how they could ever be three's attention returned to listening to the Shang Tsung's speech.
"You'll participate in the most important Mortal Kombat in history!" the sorceror proclaimed ominously. "This tournament, the tenth out of nine Outworld victories will determine Earthrealm's fate! If you defeat all of your opponents, you will face one final challenge. Me."
Johnny chuckled and muttered "That old geezers the final challenge? They might as well give me the belt right now. Eh…They do have belts right?"
Johnny then heard something behind him. He turned around and saw that Shang Tsung had suddenly appeared behind him! Johnny jumped back in shock.
"What?! How did you…"
Before he could finish his sentence Shang Tsung responded darkly, "Appearances can be deceiving."
Ichigo couldn't even believe it with his own eyes, he was there a second ago and now he'd appeared in a completely different place. "It's good thing I know Shunpo, flash step, and Sonido..." he said to himself.
As Shang floated back to the stage he announced "Our first Kombatant will be Mr. Cage!"
Johnny just chuckled and strutted up to the arena and said cockily, "That's right! That's right! Who is gonna be?"
Shang Tsung had an answer to his question. "Reptile!"
Just then a green skinned warrior appeared out of thin air and jumped down to the arena. Johnny was pretty impressed and asked, "Nice Stunt! Who's your agent?"
Shang Tsung calmly sat on his throne and cried out, "BEGIN!"
"Alright! It's showtime!"
Johnny charged at his opponent with a punch, but Reptile ducked under the punch and sweep kicked him. Johnny fell to the ground but jumped back up on his feet and responded with an uppercut to Reptile, sending him flying through the air. Reptile was about to hit the ground but Johnny followed up with a high kick to keep him up in the air. Reptile quickly recovered in the air and was about to give his enemy a drop kick, but Johnny dodged the attack by jumping back and countered with a roundhouse kick to the head.
Johnny then grabbed Reptile and smacked him a couple of times in the face before hitting him in the groin and delivering a powerful roundhouse kick to the back sending him sliding across the arena. Reptile frustratedly got up and fired a ball of green goo at him, when it hit Johnny it began to sizzle and the affected area began to smoke!
"Ah! What the hell is this s***? Acid?"
Reptile used the distraction to give Johnny a kick in the gut. Reptile then followed up with a flurry of punches to Johnny's face and used a push kick to knock him to the ground. Johnny got back up and tried to retaliate but found that Reptile was already on him and was about to deliver a haymaker to the movie star! Johnny quickly ducked under the attack by doing a split and countered with 3 devastating punches to the Saurian's nuts, side stepped him, jumped up in the air and delivered a crushing elbow strike to Reptile's spine shattering it! Reptile fell to the ground and didn't move. It was official, Johnny was the winner of the match.
Johnny triumphantly remarked "He got Caged!"
The victorious star then looked towards the crowd of warriors and said, "That's it! Ha ha! Oh yeah, I'm so pretty!"
Raiden, Ichigo, and Liu Kang looked at Cage with deadpan expressions and looked back at each other thinking the exact same thing, "What a fool."
Johnny strode up to the group of warriors and said excitedly, "And I'm taking you down, and I'm taking you down. I'm taking you out, I'm taking you out, and I'm taking you out..." The moment he got to the beautiful blond from before he looked at her with a cocky smirk and said, "And I'm taking you out for dinner!" He didn't notice as he chuckled the look of disgust on Sonya's face. However Shang Tsung interrupted Johnny's victory lap.
"And now for your second challenge, Mr. Cage… Baraaka!" he announced as the Tarkatan roared and leaped to the fighting space.
"Hmm, okay nice makeup but is it really necessary?" Baraka just sheathed his blades only for Johnny to look in amazement. "Whoa."
"Oh boy..." the orange-haired reaper muttered as he began wondering if the actor could handle himself or be turned into American sushi.
"They will taste your flesh!" Baraka cried before jumping only for Johnny to jump too and knocking him back down so hard he bounced once and was hit with several punches and kicks before returning to the ground.
Baraka leaped back up and charged at the movie star with both blades forward hitting him back for the earlier blows. Johnny struck back with his signature shadow kick but Baraka blocked it and jumped over him delivering a jab to his face. He then spun with his blades forcing Johnny into a corner. The bloodthirsty monster attempted to carry the spin on only for Johnny to jump over him like Baraka had done to him earlier.
Johnny attempted to attack only to get hit by his spin attack again but he was able to deliver an elbow to the creature's face and then followed up with a couple of energy balls. Johnny performed another shadow kick sending Baraka into the air and landing hard with a thud. Johnny quickly broke Baraka's hasty defense and began to hit juggle him till the action star tired. Baraka slowly began to recover but it became clear that it was now a contest of who could land the last blow. Johnny once again proved himself the victor as he kicked Baraka straight into the air and juggled him again before attempting to finish his opponent with another shadow kick. Baraka however broke the combo and blocked Johnny's kick.
Looking for an opening the movie star jumped over the tarkatan and once again juggled before doing a nutpunch. Baraka swung his blades cutting and knocking the actor down but Johnny quickly recovered and started delivering another devastating combo before finishing with a final shadow kick, knocking the monster senseless.
"Man, I love those blades!" Johnny said excitedly.
He looked to the floored beast and began suggesting to him the chance to join in a movie. "My producer has got to meet you! We're doing "Tommy Scissorsfist" and-"
Shang Tsung interrupted him. "Good Mr. Cage! Now, finish him!"
Johnny just smirked, still thinking this was all an act. "Finish him? Heh, yeah right." Johnny said only to recieve an angry glare from the sorceror.
"Kill him!" Shang Tsung cried. Johnny looked around hoping for anyone to back him up only to be met with silence and stares.
"Whoa… Whoa whoa! Wait a second I'm not gonna kill anyone!" he argued as the Shaolin warrior, the reaper, and the thunder god witnessed this.
Liu Kang looked at the other two with an incredulous look on his face; Raiden remained silently contemplative, and Ichigo, though still stoic, was glad to see maybe Johnny wasn't a complete selfish and materialistic b***.
"Very well…" Shang Tsung glowered. "The tournament will resume at dawn."
"What, that's it?" Johnny responded, relieved. "Really? Now where that hottie go?"
The three warriors approached him as he looked around for Sonya. "You fought well." Raiden remarked.
"Thanks. Nice hat. And I like your hair, it shows character." Johnny said to Raiden and Ichigo. This surprised the said reaper since this was one of the few times he was complimented for his hair. Liu Kang was less than impressed, however.
"You should be more respectful of Lord Raiden!" he criticized. "He is the Protector of Earthrealm, the God of thunder, the-" Johnny cut him off before he could continue.
"Look I don't know what kind of roleplaying you guys are into but count me out."
Liu Kang got in front of him, clearly annoyed. "This tournament is for more than the chance of personal glory; we are fighting for the very survival of Earthrealm!"
Johnny still wasn't convinced. "What are you talking about?"
Raiden answered for his protoge, "Your last opponent was a Tarkatan; he was born with those blades."
"Yeah, those things are real." Johnny remarked with sarcasm.
"Oh trust me they're real alright, and I got the scars to prove it." Ichigo said like it was no debate.
As the guards dragged the downed mutant away, Raiden continued, "He represents Outworld. Had you lost the emperor Shao Khan would have come one step closer to physically absorbing our world into his." But johnny still wasn't convinced.
"Outworld, yeah, yeah right."
Ichigo and Liu Kang could only look at each other with deadpan expressions as Raiden continued. "The Elder Gods created the Mortal Kombat Tournament to give Earthrealm a chance to defend itself, but if we lose this time Shao Khan will conquer all!"
"Johnny's only response were mocking sound effects "DUNH! DUNH! DUNH!" Johnny shrugged and continued. "Look guys, I'm an actor. I save the world for the cameras; if this emperor is really a threat call the military. Me? I got a date with a blonde. Ciao!" Johnny Cage then turned and walked off.
"Well that couldn't have gone worse..." Ichigo scowled as Liu Kang spoke to Raiden.
"What do you see in him?"
Raiden just kept watching the receding figure. "He is a hero, though he may not yet know it."
Ichigo proceeded to follow the action star. "I'll convince him." was the last thing he said.
After the fight between Johnny and Baraka, Sonya went to a secluded part of the island which composed of a mountain range with rock bridges connecting them. The woman then began to talk into her disguised wrist-communicator.
"This is HQ, we're sending an evac but, there is no island."
Sonya didn't like the sound of that; she was shocked to hear this piece of information.
"I'm standing on it. Just lock on to my wrist comm!"
HQ then replied "Understood. What's your current status?" Sonya then began her report.
"They have Jax and if I don't fight in this crazy tournament they'll kill him. I am gonna to try and-" Before she could finish her sentence she was interrupted by someone.
"Need help? My specialties include rescuing damsels in distress."
When Sonya turned around she was greeted by the clean-shaven face of Johnny Cage.
Sonya sighed disgustedly. "You again. Listen I've got serious problems here I am in no mood to be hit on by some movie star."
Johnny just smiled and said, "Come on, a girl like you shouldn't be running around this freak show alone."
Sonya just walked away, but Johnny wasn't about to give up; he caught up with her and grabbed her by the arm and said, "Look baby I can't let you run lose without an escort."
Correctly, believing that Johnny wouldn't leave her alone Sonya gave him a nasty punch in the solar plexus flowed by a strong uppercut that knocked the fool flat on his a**! Sonya then retorted angrily, "I don't need an 'escort,' and I am sure as hell not your baby!"
Johnny quickly got up and opened up with a front kick that was easily dodged. Johnny then jumped in the air and prepared to attack with a flying kick but Sonya jumped up and countered by wrapped her legs around him and threw him back down to the cold, hard ground. Johnny jumped back up and ran forward to resume the fight with the sexy blond. Johnny jumped only to be kicked again and hitting the ground hard.
Johnny attempted to regain the offensive and grabbed Sonya and did a drop kick to her chest which sent her flying. Johnny siezed the opening and did another front kick, this time hitting his target. Sonya recovered in midair and gave Johnny three quick jabs to the face and did a spinning roundhouse kick but Johnny ducked under her kick and did and uppercut hitting her hard.
Sonya, recovering from both physical pain and her damaged pride, didn't notice that Johnny did a back flip kick to her jaw which sent her flying through the air. But Sonya did a flip of her own and was on her feet when she hit the ground she then attacked with a cartwheel kick which stunned Johnny. Sonya charged at Johnny but before she could land a hit on him Johnny back handed her and did an ax kick to her shoulder which brought her down. Sonya tried to get back up but found that she couldn't.
Johnny on the other hand laughed arrogantly and said "Ha ha! Not bad for a girl." When he finally realized what he did he felt like a bigger j*** than normal if that was possible.
"Smooth move A-list..."
Johnny looked behind to see Ichigo approaching him. Johnny then offered his and tried to make things right. "Look, sorry about that."
Sonya slapped away Johnny's hand and snarled, "I don't need your help."
Johnny then began to back away with Ichigo and said, "Fine! Have it your way! I'll just leave you to your problems."
Before Johnny or Ichigo realized it Kano came up behind them, grabbed the two and said, "Good idea!" before throwing them over the rock path to the sharp spikes below.
Kano then leered at the helpless Sonya before him and remarked, "Now that he's softened you up, it's my turn..."
Sonya looked at him with hate filled eyes and said accusingly, "Not man enough for a fair fight?"
Kano simply laughed and replied, "I don't do fair." Then he began to torture Sonya nice and slow.
Little did Kano know Ichigo and Johnny were still alive holding on at the bottom of the cliff face. The movie star tried to get a stable hold but his hand slipped. Johnny knew he had to get him and Ichigo back up and help Sonya, but "how" was the million dollar question.
Just then he heard Kano say, "I've got a knack for survival. You, on the other hand, are going to die here."
Green energy suddenly surrounded Johnny and he pulled Ichigo up while doing a flip back onto the rock path! Johnny glared at Kano and ordered, "Step away from the lady." Kano turned around, shocked that they weren't dead.
Ichigo summoned his weapon for the fight. "Wreck and maim everything in its path, Fuwa." His blade turned into the gauntlets ready for battle.
Johnny just smirked and muttered, "Fans think my moves are all wirework and special effects. Truth is…I am the special effects!"
Ichigo then got into a combat stance and said mockingly, "Bring it, Terminator."
Kano opened up with two powerful punches that Ichigo blocked. He then retaliated by doing a front kick while his body was surrounded by liquid energy which provided more power to the kick, knocking Kano back a couple of feet. Kano got up and attacked using shuriken that Ichigo was barely able to dodge as they tore up his outfit. Ichigo then retaliated with a liquid energy ball that Kano blocked. Ichigo switched with Johnny as the actor ran up to Kano and did a sweep kick which knocked him on the floor. He tried to finish Kano off with an axe kick but Kano rolled out of the way and did a spin kick that knocked Johnny back. Kano leaped forward into the air and did a drop kick but Johnny grabbed his legs and threw him to the other side of the path.
Johnny then fired a low green energy ball hitting Kano in the stomach. Johnny then gave him a devastating uppercut to the jaw followed by a powerful knee to the face. Kano recovered and tried to attack Johnny with a punch with all of his power behind it but Johnny ducked under the blow and punched him in the balls three times and finished his combo with a front flip kick. Kano was out cold before he hit the ground.
Johnny gloated in his victory and said, "Throw that on, shrimp."
"Oh good one. No, seriously." Ichigo said sarcastically, mockingly clapping.
Sonya was shocked beyond words the only thing she could think of was 'That was a crappy comeback.' She saw that Johnny was walking towards her and said, "Thanks."
Johnny smiled offering his hand and replied, "No problem. Who was that guy anyway?"
Johnny retracted his hand, however, remembering Sonya's earlier rejection for help. But Sonya surprised him by offering her hand, asking for some help up. Johnny and Ichigo obliged and she began to tell them her story.
"His name's Kano," she explained. "He was an informant in our Black Dragon investigation; big time arms dealers. Turns out he was their leader giving us the run around. A lot of our guys got killed because of him."
Ichigo and Johnny was surprised before Johnny replied, "So that's not a costume? You're actual military?"
Sonya nodded and said, "Special forces."
"Get out!" Johnny said while Ichigo was silently surprised. "So you know about this threat to the world stuff; Raiden called in the calvary." Sonya only looked confused at that point.
Ichigo tapped Johnny's shoulder. "Um, Johnny, we didn't exactly tell the military because without proof they would just send us to the crazy bin." Ichigo explained.
"Oh." Johnny replied dumbly, feeling embarrassed. The three turned to face Kano only to find he was gone.
"Damn." Sonya growled.
Johnny looked around and said, "He can't be far."
Sonya nodded in agreement before saying, "He'll have to wait." She then turned to the two of them, "I appreciate the help Cage and..."
Johnny shook her hand and replied "Call me Johnny."
"Ichigo Kurosaki."
Sonya nodded and finished, "But right now I've got things to take care of. My C.O. is locked up on this island somewhere, I have to find him."
Sonya then began to leave in her search for Jax. Johnny kept watching her till the soul reaper butted in.
"Sorry to interrupt, but how about Raiden give's you the full story then we go save your damsel in distress?" he suggested as though talking to a child, as he grabbed Johnny by the shoulder and yanked him off.
Done now to explain Two things.
One: the reason it took so long was because I was waiting for a beta reader to finish reviewing it does not have access to the same tools as I do. He is currently swamped in studies so I thought it would be best if he got this chapter done and just went back to his studies; now I need a new Beta reader to help me with the story. All you have to do is send me the email address so I can give it to you then all you have to do is read,edit, and point out corrections.
Two: many of you have been aking me to put Khameleon in the harem so here's what i'll do. I've just put up a poll on my page and by sunday i'll go with the highest votes.
See ya
