Chapter 10: MY DIGNITY! IT STINGS! Part 2
Scorpion tried to slash at Sektor as he was in the air, but Sektor blocked the attack with his metal arm. As the spectre got his feet back on solid ground, Sektor shot a missle from his chest to blow the ninja to bits, but Scorpion rolled to the right, allowing the missle to blow up a support beam. Scorpion then uppercutted Sektor right on the chin, causing his voice to sound squeeky. Sektor stumbled back five feet.
"Not cool Scorp." Sektor said in his squeeky little voice pointing at his target. It sounded like someone smashed his "bolts" with a sledgehammer.
Sektor roundhoused kicked, but Hanzo ducked. When Scorpion tried to get up though, Sektor created an explosive burst from his face, hitting Scorpion point blank in the face. The force was enough to send the ninja twenty feet flying through a wall, breaking a support beam.
As Sektor saw the ninja limp, he took the oppurtunity to re-tune his voice box. As he was working on that, the cyborg saw the Scorpion get up, his mask mangled, revealing his skull. Hanzo then stared at the cyborg with embers in his eyes.
All that Sektor could do while watching and adjusting his voice box was"Undead never play fair." In a high pitched, then low pitched, then average pitch. He then put his fists up for another round.
Scorpion took out his second ninja sword and lunged at Sektor with both of his blades, aiming to slice his head right off. Sektor put both of his arms up and blocked both of the swords. The two kombatants were motionless, staring into one another's eyes. They knew that if one of them moved, there would be a brutal counterattack. But when Sektor saw Hanzo about to breathe fire, Sektor got his missle compartment ready. He shot the missle at Scorpion, but the ninja rolled away and with the swipe of his sword, sliced Sektor's right arm off. The cyborg kicked Scorpion in the chest, knocking him back a few feet.
"OH GOD! YOU SLICED MY F*#ING ARM OFF!" Sektor hollered at his opponent in agony, but somehow his robot body made a bleeping sound when he cursed at him. The cyber-ninja then picked his limb off of the ground.
Scorpion took this oppurtunity to lunge at his with both of his blades. The ninja screamed in unbridled fury. He knew this would be the killing blow. But then he saw a quick red streak approaching his face.
*Smack*
Scorpion stumbled back three feet as he held his face in pain. After a second or two, he took a look and saw the cyborg smack him once across the face with his own severed arm as if it was a club. Sektor then started slapping him again and again with the limb.
"How ya like me now punk!" Sektor hooted as he continued hitting the ninja again and again. He then charged up his dismembered arm and smashed Scorpion over the skull with it, smashing onto the lower floor and making him drop his swords.
Sektor then stumbled back exhausted and woozy from the blood loss. He used his right arm to cauterize the wound and leaning a the side of a pillar.
Meanwhile just outside the monastary, Mileena, Chameleon, Cyrax and Drahmin saw the broken window in the building and they all knew that Scorpion would be close to that area. Chameleon, Cyrax and Mileena used their agility to jump to the window. Drahmin just looked at them and sighed in self-dissapointment, knowing that he wasn't nearly as agile as them.
"I'll take the stairs." Drahmin said to himself with his head down, shaking his head.
Inside, the trio of assassins find the beaten body of Reptile. Chameleon shook him and Reptile regained conciousness.
"Chameleon...Baraka and Kano...are upstairs...Sektor's...fighting Scorpion." Reptile moaned while in pain.
Mileena saw the hole in the floor and had a feeling that Scorpion and Sektor were down there. She gestured Chameleon and Cyrax to follow her down.
Meanwhile, Scorpion just got back to his senses after being slapped around silly. Hate filled his fragile mind as his skull was sheathed in flames. He jumped back to the previous floor to have a rematch with the cyborg. But when he saw the cyborg leaning on a pillar severely weakened, Scorpion immediately did a high jump kick strait at Sektor. But at the last second, Sektor saw a ball of ice freeze Scorpion freeze in midair.
When Sektor looked at who threw the ice ball, he saw a ninja dressed in blue clothing.
"Sub-Zero? What are you doing here?" Sektor asked confused. He did not see this one coming.
"It's Clark." The rescuer told Sektor in a deadpan manner.
Sektor just stared in confusion. Clark sighed and revealed his usual clear color. Sektor seemed to recognize that.
Just then, Chameleon saw Scorpion thawing out of the ice. So "Clark" threw another ice ball at him. When Hanzo was frozen again, Chameleon turned to Mileena and Cyrax.
"Alright! Let give him everything we got!" Chameleon ordered Mileena and Cyrax as she took out her Sais and he took out his bombs. Little known fact: Chameleon is not a half bad leader.
So Chameleon started throwing more ice balls, acid balls, fire balls, psi balls and water balls, Mileena threw a countless amount of Sais and Cyrax started tossing bombs like a madman. All of these projectiles were directed at Scorpion, leaving a fog of dust and destroying much of the room. When the three finally stopped panting for air, they watched the dust subside. But to their horror, Scorpion was still up. His clothes were all torn up and he was grunting in pain. But the three could see that fire was in his mouth, ready to shoot out. Luckily, Mileena and Chameleon dodged to the side as Cyrax stood there since he was immune to fire.
"Sorry Scorpy! I'm one hundred percent FYAAAH PREEEEWF!" Cyrax taunted laughing robotically to himself as he danced in the inferno. But through the fire and flames, he recieved a fist strait to his stomach, knocking the wind out of him.
Chameleon and Mileena jumped into the fray to battle Hanzo. Mileena lunged with a sai but Scorpion grabbed her wrist and threw her to the other side of the room, breaking another support beam. Cyrax tried to slash at the ninja with a buzzsaw to decapitate him. But Scorpion ducked and uppercutted him, sending him flying into the air and landing flat on his back, falling down two stories due to his weight. Scorpion tried to punch Chameleon, but Chameleon mirrored his exact move, colliding their fists together. They copied each other move for move, punch by punch, kick by kick for quite a while. But eventually, a loud, deep roar is heard. Scorpion turned back and saw an Oni club deck him strait in the face, sending him flying back thirty feet. "Clark" then took a look at the huffing and puffing Drahmin.
"Sorry. Had to take the stairs." Drahmin told his superior still panting.
Chameleon then took a look at the damage Drahmin did to Hanzo, then realized that six of his friends were down for the count. Clark then had an idea. He went up to Drahmin.
"Alright! I've got an idea! While you distract Scorpion, I'll get everybody out of here! Understand?" Chameleon told the Oni as he pointed to their unconcious allies. Drahmin nodded in understanding.
But before Chameleon went off, he gave Drahmin one last tip.
"In five minutes, I suggest you take the mask off." Chameleon said smiling under his mask. He knew the side effects very well.
Drahmin saluted and began to charge at the yellow ninja. Scorpion's eyes went wide open as he saw the oni charge at him and dodged to the side, making making Drahmin break another pillar. Scorpion, then had an idea to send this whole place down.
Chameleon got Cyrax and Mileena up from unconciousness. Cyrax then used his cybernetic abilities to reattach Sektor's arm. Cyrax and Sektor then helped Reptile get up and out of the building. But upstairs, Mileena and Chameleon were trying to wake Baraka up, who was still unconcious with his rear up in the air.
"But mommy, I don't wanna be a bloodthirsty warrior. I wanna be a botanist." Baraka muttered to himself as Mileena and Chameleon started to wake him up.
When Baraka opened his eyes, he strait to his feet. Mileena and Chameleon then saw the huge hole in his teeth. They stared in shock.
"Did we win?" Baraka happily asked not feeling any pain at all.
"We're working on it hun. Let's just get out of here." Mileena answered him as she patted his back with a smile. They then both left the building.
Chameleon then noticed Kano's dead body. He knelt to the corpse and from out of hammerspace, got a first aid kit. He then got a can of "Anti-Death Spray" from the kit and sprayed it all over Kano. Within seconds, Kano was up and ready.
"I knew I'd be back today!" Kano shouted in triumph to Chameleon.
They then noticed that the whole monastary was now shaking. Chameleon and Kano had a feeling Drahmin was now going berserk, so they went out of the monastary ASAP.
Drahmin had taken off a mask a short while ago and was smashing everything in his way trying to get at the extremely injured Scorpion, from pillars to walls to even valuble artifacts. Scorpion just kept dodging the rampaging monster, making sure he breaks everything that can possibly support the building. Drahmin didn't even know what he was doing. He was just think smash, smash, smash.
The stability of the monastary gradually got worse and worse. The two were on the second floor by now and Scorpion saw a perfectly fine pillar. He rushed to the pillar and Drahmin pursued him. He waited for Drahmin to swing his club and dodged at the last second, making the oni smash the pillar to pieces.
Scorpion knew that the monastary couldn't take any more damage. So he made his escape. But before that, he grabbed Drahmin's mask and tossed it at his face, so he could see the building fall on him with sane eye. Drahmin strapped the mask on and noticed Scorpion escaping, and the whole building about to fall on him. He jumped out of a window and made a run for it.
Outside, Reptile, Mileena, Cyrax, Sektor, Chameleon, Kano and Baraka saw the whole building collaspe. Sektor and Cyrax then used their binocular vision to see Drahmin running away from the collaspsing building crying out "crap, crap, crap" the whole way.
The seven of them look in awe as they see Drahmin stop in front of them all covered in dust huffing and puffing for air.
"He got away." Drahmin told them dissapointed in himself.
With those words, they were sure Shao Khan would have them killed. So they left to his palace accepting their fate.
Meanwhile, Scorpion was running from the destroyed building into the Living Forest. He was in critical condition and he knew it. One more hit from anything and it's back to the Netherealm. So he was running as fast as he could to find somewhere to heal his wounds.
But then something metal smashed his crotch. Before Hanzo died of his injuries, he saw that the culprit was a Chaosrealmer coming from a hole in the ground. He then went to his knees and then fell face first on the grass.
"Owie" was the last word he said before his death.
Havik was recovering from hitting his head on something. He looked around and saw the corspe of Scorpion lying there. He then smiled to himself as he put an eating bib around his neck and got a fork and a knife from hammerspace.
"Thank you Albuquerque!" Havik hollered in joy as he dragged the corspe into the hole.
Back in Shao Khan's throne room, everybody voted that Reptile be the one to break the new to Shao Khan. Reptile entered the room in a nervous manner and confronted his master.
"That bloody Scorpion managed to destory the monastary! There I said it!" Reptile screamed out as crounched down, covering his face with his hands. He knew he was going to get killed by something due to the king's wrath.
But all he heard was joyous laughter. The other seven were confused and entered the throne room.
"What's the matter? I thought we needed to guard it?" Mileena asked her "father" confused.
Shao Khan wiped a tear from his eye and stopped laughing to explain.
"Well you see, I was tired of that stupid place. Who needed it anyways? I really wanted to make a awesome ninjaball stadium in it's place, but stupid Onagan magical laws or whatever wouldn't let me. So I got someone to convince Scorps that the monks help Quan-Chi slaughter his clan. And knowing him he bought it. IT...WAS...Glorious!"
"Then why did you get us to guard it?" Reptile asked pointing out the gaping plothole.
"Well I had to make it somewhat legit." The emperor told his servant with a well duh look.
They were then excused with everybody except Baraka confused about the whole thing.
"Sweeeeet! An entirely new ninjaball stadium! CAN'T WAIT!" Baraka screamed jumping for joy.
The rest just shook their heads as they walked into the sunset. That incident wasted their entire break. Now the minions must wait for another break.
Finished for now. I got other story ideas to work on. But I'll be back eventually to work on my MOB (Minions of Break) Universe. Thanks to all the reviewers. Adios for now.
