Happy day after Valentines Day MK community.
This story will be like my other stories, my retelling of the story or oc killing each other. Things you need to know, a lot of the human characters ages will be be between early twenties and thirties, storyline will be a mix between movie, game and online series, and there wont be any bs that certain characters beat certain like in story mode in the games.
First few chapter will be the introduction of main characters and will than start towards the tournament stage.
I added characters from mk2 because there were only 7-9 characters in 1. Plus Ermac was technically in mk 1, just as a glitch. Kenshi in it because well Kenshi.
Disclaimer: I do not own Mortal Kombat or any of the characters. Please enjoy.
Chapter 4: Opponents
Liu Kang Pov Shang Tsung Boat
Raiden finally reappeared with an injured Sonya Blade and Johnny Cage. "What happened to them"? Said Art Lean who was next to Kenshi.
"One of them was stupid enough to go after someone who has a laser eye". Stated Raiden. Than Sonya looks at him with an annoyed look.
"There's a guy with a laser eye"? Asked Kung Lao, who was right next to me.
"To be fare we do know a guy who is leader of a league of assassins, not to mention freeze people". I stated to Kung Lao.
Raiden than starts glowing starts healing Sonya. "Woah how are you doing this". Asked the confused Johnny Cage. He takes his sunglasses off to see if this was some sort of illusion.
"We also happen to know the god of thunder and protector of earthrealm". I smile mocking him.
"Excuse me but did you just say god"? Asked Sonya.
"Raiden at your service". Raiden says as he tips his hat and winks at her. After finishing healing her the glow stopped and he started to look more human. "I bet you three have a lot of questions"? Motioning towards everyone except me, Kung Lao, Bi-Han, the hooded person and Kenshi.
"An explanation would be nice". Said Sonya.
"Long ago when all the realms were young and free, there were six realms that stood out in power and greatness. The realm of order, Seido. The realm of chaos, chaosrealm. The realm of peace, Edenia. The realm of war, Outworld. The realm of death, Netherealm. And the realm of life, Earthrealm or earth.All the realms were at peace, but peace doesn't always last forever. in the world outworld the monarchy was taken over by a mad power hungry warrior by the name of Shao Kahn, who shortly after killing the king of outworld went on to conquer all the other realms to gain more power. However the power of lesser realms were weak compared to the main six realms, so Shao Kahn set his sights on Edenia. Since Edenia is the realm of peace conquest was easy. Kahn than than killed the royal family to prove outworld power.After Edenia power was absorbed, Outworld power was increased tenfold and shortly afterward they started to attack earth so that they can gain Earthrealm's power. I went to the elder gods and pleaded for there aid, sadly they told me that they couldn't interfere but will allow Earthrealm a fighting chance against Outworld. Outworld must beat Earthrealm in ten straight tournament known as Mortal Kombat.".
"Oh that makes since". Johnny says sarcastically.
"If this is true than how come none of the world governments know about this"? Asked Art Lean.
"Everyone did, but as time went on and people started to find the story ridiculous so everyone chose to forget it". I told him. "However not everyone chose to forget".
"That's where me and Liu Kang come in. The Shaolin have trained warriors for years to fight outworld in the tournament". Said Kung Lao. His face than sadden a bit. "We were only successful once".
Sonya than turns and looks up at Raiden. "Why us of all people"?
"Liu Kang and Kung Lao were already chosen ahead of time. Kenshi and Bi-Han came to me and volunteered".
"And the rest of us"? Sonya now irritated.
"I searched the planet for at least a year, looking for brave cunning and honorable warriors. Sadly in this era there's not that many people like that anymore so I had to make due with you guys". He starts laughing until he saw the look on Sonya, Johnny and Arts face. "I was kidding".
"Well your sense of humor sucks". Said Art.
"Well first I went around and look deep into the hearts of fighters around world. Digging deep into your souls and finding your inner strength".
After Raiden finished I got up from my seat and walked closer to him.
"Do know who we will be facing into the tournament"?
"I got names, but I only know about few of them". Raiden eyes start to glow and he moved his hands into the air as they to glowed. Than out of thin air came a cloud that than showed a reptilian warrior in green spike like armor and long black pants. He wore no boots or gloves so his reptilian claws were out in the open. He also wore a green mask that cover most of his face leaving his reptilian eyes exposed. "Reptile, as far as I know he is the last Saurian in existance".
Johnny than gave him a confused look so I spoke up. "Lizard people from the realm of Zaterra".
Raiden than continues while the screen than shows Reptile melting someones face with acid drooling out of his mouth. "After Shao Kahn conquered his realm and was spared by Shang Tsung he took on the name Reptile and became there most trusted spy and on few occasions assassin. I've seen him fight in past tournaments, my word of advice he can turn invisible".
The screen than changes and shows a tarkatan in white robes and black bagging pants. His face was extremely ugly to look at. "Baraka, half demon half outworlder and all deadly. He is commander of Shao Kahns elite army of tarkatan warriors". The screen than shows blades coming out of his arms. "In past tournaments he was brutal and ruthless. He spares no one and has zero brains".
"Wasn't he the guy puking over the ship"? Bi-Han pointed out.
"Sea sickness". Raiden said. The screen than shows Kano. "Kano l-". Sonya interrupts.
"Leader of the black dragons, major weapons arms dealers. And none of you worry for he's mine". Sonya says with flaming anger.
"Okay". Raiden screen than changes to shows a man in red and black cloak. His face, arms, and legs were wrapped in black wraps. The only thing visible of his face was his glowing green eyes. "His name is Ermac and I have nothing on him. He's a complete mystery".
Than a yellow tattered robed ninja with a pair of kitanas strapped to his back than appeared on screen. What was terrifying about him was his completely white eyes and his golden mask that resembles a skull, hood covered the rest of his face.. "His name is Scorpion and for what I can gather he is a warrior from the Netherrealm, a deadly assassin and skilled warrior". I notice Bi-Han was staring deathly at him.
Than two young women appear on screen. The one on the left had short shoulder length black hair and was wearing pink sleeveless top that left her back showing and a bit of her chest exposed, pink gloves, she also wore black skinny pants and pink boots. The right side had a women that looked like the other girl but seems more mature. She has an outfit similar to the other one but with blue instead of pink and her hair was long.
"Mileena and Kitana. Assassins and that's all I got".
"They don't look that bad". Johnny stated before Sonya hit him at the back of the head.
Than a four arm man than appears in red robes and spiked pads. He was huge and extremely bulky and had his black hair wrapped in a pony tail. "Goro is general of the shokan, half human and half dragon. He's been outworlds champion for years and so far he lost once in his entire life. To win the tournament you must beat him first".
"Don't I got him". Kung Lao said in a serious tone.
Than the screen takes form of Shang Tsung. "Now he's a whole another story". Johnny starts laughing his as off.
"I'm sorry but he's an old man". I than turn to him an anger. Before I could speak Kenshi responded first.
"Do not underestimate him, for his power is beyond anything you can imagine".
I than turn to him as I wonder if he had ever encountered him before.
"Kenshi right, before Shang Tsung was on the side of Outworld he was an Earthrealm warrior that once protected the earth. However he be came tempted by dark arts and switched sides. Now he leads Outworld's forces to invade Earthrealm". The light show finally ends and he puts his hands down.
Sonya than stands up and begins to walk off. "Where you going"? Asked Johnny.
"Look I don't care about this all I care about is putting a bullet in between Kano's eyes". Raiden than appears in front of her and pauses her.
"This is why Shang Tsung chose Kano. He knew that I've chosen you to fight for Earthrealm, so he got the only person that would distract you from whats important". He said to her blocking her from the doors to the rooms.
"Get out of my way thunder god". Sonya stared Raiden down until Kung Lao yelled out.
"Hey Raiden, were here". And in the distance an island surrounded by peaks and mist. On the island was a mountain and on the mountain was a massive palace.
Than up above us was Shang Tsung was in the air and he than screamed. "IT HAS BEGUN"!
