Armybot619: hey I gave a warning didn't I? so buzz off!

Deep within Outworld, on the shores of some unknown beach that was littered with bodies of corpses, an ocean of blood was washing away the footprints of two warriors walking long side of the waves. One warrior was dressed all in black with silver armor and a silver mask to cover the lower part of his face, while the other warrior was an exact copy of Sub-Zero. "We should stay together, Tundra."

The one dressed like Sub Zero turned to the black warrior and said "I will be careful Smoke, don't worry. But I would rather focus on finding Bi-Han and warn him of what is happening to the Lin Kuei."

Smoke then turned to Tundra and replied "Don't worry if your brother is here we will find him before the Lin Kuei do. Cyrax was able to help some of us escape before we were cyberized, but he stayed behind to buy us time so we owe him that much."

Tundra nodded in agreement and said, "While it might be best for us to stick together, I believe we will be able to cover more ground if we split up." Smoke agreed but before they split up Smoke asked "Tundra, why do you dress as your brother Bi-Han?" Tundra then looked at Smoke and said "Should we run into any of the Lin Kuei who are with Sektor, they will think I am the true Sub Zero and if I must I will sacrifice myself for my brother's safety."

Smoke nodded, he was reluctant to accept any plan that involved self-sacrifice but respected Tundra's sentiments, and said "Let us hope that it does not come to that. Be stealthful as the night, Tundra." Smoke then bowed to Tundra, who to others would see as Sub Zero and Tundra then turned to Smoke and bowed., "And deadly as the dawn." He said before teleporting away in ice.

Smoke then began to walk towards the forest he saw in the distance until someone called out "The Emperor was wise to send me here. The Lin Kuei do walk uninvited in his realm." It was Kitana with one of her bladed fans ready in her hand. Smoke looked at her and just chuckled before saying "How wise your emperor might be, he was foolish to send his housemaid to interfere with Lin Kuei business." That's when Ichigo arrived on the scene to see Kitana starting grow as angry as hell itself. "Oh boy" he said as mentally prepared himself before he equipped Rivu Aiasan.

Kitana eyes roared with fury at being insulted and yelled "I am Kitana, princess of Outworld and I deal harshly with sharp-tongued intruders!" Kitana then got into a fighting stance and so did Smoke.

Kitana moved quickly as she whipped out her fans and slashed them at Smoke who dodged her attacks and then grabbed one of her of her hands and delivered a palm strike to the gut pushing her back a little. Smoke then teleported in a cloud of smoke and appeared behind her ready to give her a kick to the spine but Kitana somersaulted into the air and landed on her feet and did a 180 spin and threw her fans at Smoke. The Lin Kuei warrior dodge the fans with easy but that was what Kitana wanted as she then ran towards her opponent and sent him in the air with a high kick, she then jumped up after him and tried to slice his belly open with the razor blades on her back up fans.

But when she made the cut, Smoke turned into his name sake and appeared on the ground behind her when she landed. Kitana, thinking quickly, used her powers over wind to push herself backwards and give her enough momentum for a strong dive kick. Smoke was able to avoid the kick and deliver a hard elbow to her face causing her to stagger a bit, then Smoke followed up with a sweeping kick and then tried to stomp on her chest but Kitana rolled out of the way just in time.

As Kitana got back to her feet she saw Ichigo and immediately changed her target, beganing to throw a flurry of punches and kicks at Ichigo. Ichigo was able to dodge most of her attacks and block the ones he couldn't, until he saw an opening in the princesses' stance and threw a slash to the side of her head. Kitana smirked under her veil seeing as the hybrid took the bait and then blocked the stab and then wrapped her right arm around Ichigo's left arm and the jab him hard in the solar plexus leaving Ichigo gasping for air as she then followed up with a with a left hook to his cheek, a uppercut to the jaw, and finally a push kick to his chest which sent Ichigo back a little. Kitana then brought out her fans and began to attack Ichigo again with renewed vigor. Ichigo was still trying to get air back into his lungs and so when Kitana attacked she was able to get a few good hits on him, only his armor saved him from being cut on his arms from blocking and receiving a nasty slash across his chest.

Ichigo then decided that he needed a little distance to regroup so he jumped back away from her, but Kitana lunged forward again with great speed until Ichigo, finally having had enough, threw a fireball at her. When it hit Kitana, she was flung into the air and when she was falling, Ichigo jumped into the air and struck her to the side making her land in the waves of the ocean. Kitana got back up with her clothes wet and hugging her skin tightly. The water was very cold, making her have to fight the impulse to shiver from both the water on her and the cold wind that was blowing, but she ignored it and charged forth with her fans in each hand and engaged with again Ichigo and they were trading blow for blow with each other. Until Ichigo then looked at her chest and turned around looking embarrassed, confused by his actions Kitana looked down and saw that her nipples had hardened due to the cold weather and because of the wet state of her clothes they were pointing through for all to see.

Smoke then charged into battle unbidden and proceeded to attack the distracted princess. Smoke landed a couple hits before turning into smoke and moving behind her and then grabbing shoulder her and spinning her around to put his palm on her stomach, causing her to shake at painful angles. Then he used a palm strike to her stomach again and then he turned himself into smoke and moved behind her again and grabbed her one more time before doing a suplex move on her. When Smoke got back up he saw that even though Kitana was on the ground she was slowly trying to get back up again. Smoke then prepared to finish her off and said "Where there is smoke, there is fire."

However the Soul reaper stopped the assassin from finishing the job. "Not happening!" he said making it clear that he wouldn't let the Lin Kuei kill when he was suddenly tackled by Kitana and was struggling with her as Smoke just looked on in confusion.

"Well you two obviously deserved each other" he said as he turned invisible and left.

The two kept struggling till Ichigo tried getting through to her by reasoning. "Kitana what is wrong with you?!" he shouted only for Kitana to keep beating his chest, "What's wrong!? WHAT'S WRONG!, YOU LEFT US, FOUGHT AGAINST US, BETRAYED ME! I can't stand losing another good thing in my life" she said as the rage began to leave her and she started to sob and Ichigo placed her head next to him as he embraced her and tried to calm her down. "I'm so sorry Kitana I didn't mean to hurt anybody, especially you" he said as he held her head and looked at her face while pulling her mask down. She just looked down at him and kissed him hard on the lips showing her affection for him. Ichigo was enjoying it until for some reason he stopped her, looking concerned and serious. "What is it?" she asked as the soul reaper just got up and turned around and before leaving, said "I care about my friends and that includes Liu Kang, I can tell he has feelings for you and to get involve with you would be a disloyalty to him. Like me he lost someone very close to him and unlike me had something to guide him being Martial arts. What I'm saying is you and Liu Kang should get together and be happy." And with that he left the princess alone to follow the smoke elementalist.

After walking for miles Smoke began to hear something that sounded like explosions, so Smoke began to move towards the noises and as he got closer he began to hear voices there as well. When he got to the place, he hid behind a tree and spied on who was there; the first person he saw there was a man that looked like half man and half machine and he had a RPG with him, Smoke recognized him as Kano one of the people who participated on Shang Tsung's side during the previous Mortal Kombat. The next person he saw he had to do a double take on, because the next person was Shang Tsung himself except he looked a lot younger by 30 or 40 years.

Kano smiled patting the RPG on his shoulder and said proudly "With a whole army totin' these babies no one in Outworld or Earthrealm could stand up to you." To prove his point Kano fired another round into the forest causing another patch business of forest to explode as Shang Tsung smiled and said "Well done. You may tell your fellow Black Dragons that I am very interested in your merchandise." Kano smiled and nodded okay and fired yet another round just for fun.

Smoke decided it was time to make his presence known and started to walk towards them "Shang Tsung!"

Both of them looked at Smoke angered that their little meeting was interrupted. Kano was the first to act, telling his new business partner "I'll take care of him, no charge." and then walked up to Smoke and said "One dead Lin Kuei in a tick." and then he got into a fighting stance and Smoke got ready to fight as well.

Kano was the first to attack with a couple of well-aimed punches that Smoke was able to block or dodge, until Kano tried to punch him in the jaw. Smoke ducked the incoming blow and then sprang back up and delivered an uppercut to the Black Dragon merc that sent him flying into the air. Smoke then rushed his opponent as Kano did a back-flip in the air using the momentum from Smoke's uppercut to put some distance between them and land on his feet. Smoke tried to punch him but Kano grabbed his fist and retaliated by smacking Smoke with a head-butt. Kano then grabbed Smoke around the neck and began to strangle him as he laughed.

Smoke then brought both his hands up and smacked Kano in the ears causing Kano to let go of the Lin Kuei assassin and stagger back while holding his ears hoping the pain will stop. Smoke wasted no time and turned his entire body into his namesake and moved behind Kano and then became solid again and started to deliver devastating punches to Kano's head and chest before sweeping his legs out from under him and threw a smoke ball where Kano was going to land on the ground.

Kano expected to land on solid ground but instead he was teleported into the air by Smoke's technique and Smoke jumped into the air and began to do combos against Kano all the while teleporting in a cloud of smoke to make guarding impossible before he delivered and ax kick which made Kano collide with the cold hard ground.

Kano got back up only to see another smoke ball coming towards him and before he could react he was already engulfed by it and was in the air next to Smoke again, who grabbed him and threw him to the ground again. When Smoke finally landed on the ground he then teleported behind him in a cloud of smoke multiple times around Kano and proceeded to beat the crap out of Kano with haymakers to his jaw, throwing low swinging hooks to his kidneys, delivering powerful kicks to his body, which knocked Kano around like he was a pinball. Smoke decided to finish him off by throwing another smoke ball while Keno was disoriented and the merc once again found himself in the air; Smoke then teleported into the air behind Kano but instead of hitting him like before Smoke grabbed Kano around his body and they both flipped over where Kano's head would hit the ground when he was about to hit Smoke teleported away and Kano's head smacked the ground with enough force where if his skull wasn't made out of steel it would have been cracked open. When Kano tried to get back up Smoke delivered a powerful push kick to his face, sending him flying back and when Kano came to a stop he was out cold and Smoke stood up and said "Stay down, I would have words with your associate."

Smoke then began to move towards Shang Tsung "Tell me where Sub Zero is?" Shang Tsung then transformed into the man the warrior was looking for while Reptile appeared by his side, "What the….?" Smoke said surprised as Shang Tsung, using Sub Zero's voice, said "Don't worry he is still alive despite his failure at the tournament. He is now fighting for Earthrealm, but you won't be meeting him anytime soon. I'll also wager he is more powerful than you Lin Kuei" and then got into a fighting stance and Smoke got into his own fighting stance and then said "Assuming his form does not give you have his skills, shapeshifter."

"Let us see if smoke can freeze." Shang Tsung said, and the fight began.

Smoke attacked first with furious punches but Shang Tsung matched him blow for blow and when they both delivered haymakers to each other they were then pushed back. Smoke stopped himself from skidding and then teleported behind the fake Sub Zero and threw a punch but when his fist connected he found himself frozen. Shang Tsung then delivered a double punch to the gut pushing Smoke back and causing him to fall to one knee and looked at Shang Tsung who then charged at Smoke.

Smoke quickly got up and dodged or blocked his foe's attacks he head to rethink his strategy. Smoke then threw a smoke ball at his opponent's feet but Shang Tsung jumped into the air, only for Smoke to teleport behind him and side kick him in the head, sending him on a diagonal fall back to the ground. When Smoke landed back on the earth again Shang Tsung used Sub Zero's sliding ice technique to try and hit Smoke only for him to teleport behind him again and grab Shang Tsung from behind and began to channel his power into him. Shang Tsung screamed as he felt like he was being boiled alive before Smoke suplex-ed him to the ground.

When Shang Tsung did not get back up got back up Reptile stepped in and before the two combatants could attack each other jumped away from Smoke and vanished, who soon felt himself get hit by an invisible fist. However Smoke, as someone who had invisibility in his arsenal, knew what to do and waited for the right moment and when Reptile attacked, Smoke teleported, punched his opponent, and then ran behind him and delivered a German Suplex which slammed his opponent's head onto the ground, breaking the skull and neck. Then, while the lizard was trying to get up, Smoke kicked him in the face, breaking their skull even more. Reptile crashed into the ground laying there unable to get up; "Now answer me" the assassin demanded "What do you know of Sub-Zero?"

That was all he could say before getting punched by out of nowhere. "What?" he said before something began punching him out of thin air. Shang Tsung got up to see Smoke being beaten up by someone unseen and took the opportunity to use his magic to teleport both himself, Kano, reptile and the RPGs out of the area.

Smoke jumped back to get some distance from this new enemy and saw what it was when he materialized out of thin air, it was some kind of robotic warrior but when it spoke the Lin Kuei assassin's heart skipped a beat, "You have disobeyed the directive to remain at the Lin Kuei Temple and joined with Cyrax and Sub Zero to put a stop to the Cyber Initiative. You will return with us to begin your transformation."

Smoke then realized what he was facing was none other than Sektor, only this Sektor was cyberized. "You actually did it. You're a cyborg."

"We are the new Lin Kuei. More stealthful than the night, more deadly than the dawn!" Sektor said in a mechanical voice as he got into a fighting stance and Smoke also got into his fighting stance. Sektor then moved faster than Smoke could keep up with and he gave the former Lin Kuei three punches to the gut before finishing his combo with an uppercut that sent Smoke flying in the air. Smoke then turned into a cloud of smoke and teleported behind Sektor for a counter attack, only for the cyborg to dematerialize out of existence and teleport right under his jaw sending Smoke once again into the air only this time he landed on his back.

Smoke got back up just in time to avoid Sektor trying to curb stomp him. Smoke then backed away and charged at his opponent again and Sektor blocked every punch before he grabbed both his hands, Smoke then jumped up and delivered a drop kick to Sektor's chest which made him let go of Smoke and pushed him back.

Sektor tried to charge him but Smoke threw a smoke ball at the cyborg's feet sending him into the air and Smoke jumped up into the air to kick him back only to teleport behind him and kick him back to the ground. Smoke then teleported in a cloud of smoke to avoid Sektor teleporting behind him and using his flamethrower on him. Smoke then attacked Sektor with four quick punches to the face before teleporting and sweeping his feet from under him. Smoke then kicked him back and teleported behind him to use a smoke ball to teleport the cyborg into the air and then turn into a cloud and teleported to Sektor and began to beat him everywhere he could think of. First he delivered a couple of kicks to his body only to appear behind him and deliver punches high kicks him further up into the air Smoke teleported behind Sektor and kept on kicking him further and further into the air and when he was high to reach Smoke would then appeared above him and gave Sektor a strong punch to the back of the head and while the two of them began to fall back to the earth Smoke grabbed Sektor's head and slammed it into the ground head when they landed.

When Smoke got back up Sektor wasn't moving, Smoke looked at Sektor with disgust and said proudly "I will never submit."

But before he could walk away he was surrounded by other Lin Kuei cyborgs that put him in some form of stasis field.

A little ways away Raiden and Johnny Cage teleported to the source of one of the signals Sonya told them about. "There is great energy nearby." The god of thunder said as Johnny looked around until he tapped Raiden on the shoulder, "Um…Rai dude."

As Ichigo regrouped with the two, Raiden saw the Lin Kuei cyborgs and Smoke causing him and Ichigo to be assaulted with another vision from the future where Smoke was turned into a cyborg and became a deadly threat to them. When Raiden regained his senses he charged up his godly powers and said "We must not let them take him" and fired a stream of electricity from his hands.

When the lightning hit the cyborgs they began to short circuit and were forced to let Smoke go and Sektor saw that he was outclassed and he retreated. Raiden, Ichigo, and Johnny both ran to Smoke to see if he was alright, Smoke saw Raiden and he immediately bowed before him and said "Thank you, lord Raiden. I am called Smoke. I understand that Sub Zero his helping you in this new tournament to defend Earthrealm. I have something I must tell him."

Raiden nodded and then said "Sub Zero is with Scorpion at the tournament. Join us Smoke." Smoke nodded in agreement before adding "Before I leave we must look for Sub Zero's brother Tundra who accompanied me here, and if Sektor is here then he will be looking for him as well. The he Grandmaster intends to turn every Lin Kuei into a cyborg. My friend is in danger."

Raiden, understanding the danger young Tundra faced, said "The tournament, I have a feeling that we will find Tundra and Sub-Zero .there." and Smoke replied "Then let us go. Tundra's soul depends on it."

The four then left to the arena in search of the Cryomancers
