Hello! I'm here to present you the Christmas chapter! which is a little because Christmas has already passed u_u
I have a video about Mortal Kombat on YouTube! Yay! The link to my channel is on my profile, so enjoy the 'Mortal Kombat awesome music video', as I call it. I know that there are a zillion of this kind of videos, I just wanted to do one myself.
Anyway, I don't know if I'm focusing my attention on certain characters and some don't get a lot of mention in the BB house, so… please notify me if any character is missing some love :) Enough of me, ENJOY THE CHAPPIE!
Shang Tsung and Quan Chi left boxes of Christmas items, such as adornments, lights, present bags, spheres and even a big tree in the living room. It was the middle of the night and Shang Tsung stood in front of one of the many wall mirrors of the house.
"Hey there good looking!" said the sorcerer. He pressed his fists and pretended to be a boxer.
"What are you doing, idiot? Behind all those mirrors are cameras filming day and night!" said Quan Chi.
"Oh yeah. When are we going to deliver the 'special' punch?" asked Shang Tsung.
"Don't worry about that, Santa will be delivering it" said Quan Chi. With that said, they disappeared.
The kombatants woke up and discovered the new holiday that they were given, except for the earthrealmers (spelled right?), which already know it. They gave a weird look to the boxes and the tree.
"What are we supposed to do with this?" asked Kitana. Then, the TV turned on and Quan Chi was on screen.
"Good morning kombatants! Today you'll be celebrating Christmas!" said cheerfully the necromancer, "You will have to distribute the roles of Christmas, that are decorating the tree, the place, and preparing dinner, but the role that you won't escape is making the presents!" said Quan Chi.
"Quan Chi and I took the liberty to give you as well a present, which are sweaters that are in a box next to tree" said Shang Tsung.
Scorpion opened the box and put all the 'pretty' sweaters on the coffee table. They were all in hideous colors. They were so awful, that if Rain saw them, he would faint. Everyone forced a smile.
"I knitted them myself! Don't they look lovely?" said happily the sorcerer.
"Uh…sure. Thank you" said Sareena, forcing the smile harder.
"Ok, don't forget that you will have a special guest tonight and he will be the one giving your presents to a random habitant of this house. So, let Christmas begin!" announced Quan Chi. With that being said, the TV turned off.
"They didn't like the sweaters, did they?" said Shang Tsung in a worried tone.
"Um…well…" said Quan Chi nervously.
"They didn't! Waaah!" sobbed Shag Tsung. Quan Chi laid a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"It's just not your thing, you are way better at other stuff" said the necromancer, in an attempt to cheer him up.
"You are right…I mean, I'm way better at video games than you. Man, I crush at video games and I…"
"Ok stop it now! There is no need to brag about it"
Sonya explained how Christmas was celebrated to the kombatants and gave them their respective roles. Kitana, Li Mei, Scorpion, Ermac and Sareena would be cooking; Sub-zero, Kenshi, Ashrah, Baraka and Mileena would be decorating the tree; and finally, Nitara, Raiden, Shao Khan, Sindel, and Kano would be decorating the place.
Sonya supervised everything that was going on.
"Sindel, please come back with me" pleaded Shao Khan. Sindel was humming a song playing in the stereo.
"Please, please, please…don't ignore me!" demanded the emperor.
Sindel turned away and went to hang more ornaments. Shao Khan grunted.
"Ooh mistletoe! I should hang it in strategy points, so that a girl can kiss me, and I really hope it is not Sonya! or Mileena…or Nitara…or even Sareena, cuz' she ain't human, but she's hot!" said Kano to himself. But he didn't know that Sonya heard him.
"Sub-zero, since I see that we are having some cold weather recently, but it is not snowing, I was wondering if you could make some snow when the night comes" said Sonya.
"No problem" responded the cryomancer.
Baraka was on the top of a wooden ladder trying to put the bright star on top of the tree. Suddenly, he looked down to see Mileena's attributes while she was hanging some spheres. He sighed and held his usual idiotic face.
"Baraka, please hurry up or…You are so sick!" shouted Mileena when she discovered where was he looking at. Mileena kicked the ladder and it split in two, making Baraka fall to the ground.
Mileena scoffed and turned away. "My job here is done"
Baraka groaned in pain and touched his back.
"Dear Elder Gods, I guess I have to put this myself" said Kenshi. He lifted his glowing hand and the star flew to the top of the tree.
It was almost night, and the preparations were almost finished. It was time to make the gifts. The girls did not have much problem making the gifts, but some guys did. When they finished, they left all the presents under the Christmas tree, which was beautifully decorated.
Sub-zero approached to the garden and with his freezing powers, he made snowflakes. It was certainly beautiful. Many gasped at such beauty, because they have never seen snow.
"Come on everybody! Dinner is ready!" announced Ermac.
The kombatants were eating happily. Scorpion lit the candles on the table, Sub-zero cooled the beverages, Sareena came with the big turkey, Kitana sliced the turkey in pieces for everyone, and when everybody finished, Li Mei brought the chocolate cake.
Everything was joy and laughs for the MK family, when suddenly, a thumping sound was heard. They stood up from their seats and went with caution to the living room.
It was dark and a big silhouette was picking up the presents from the tree. Nitara turned the light on and to everyone's surprise, it was a fat man in a red suit and with long white beard.
"Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!" said the man.
"Who are you?" asked Nitara.
"My name is Santa Claus. I'm here to deliver the presents" said Santa cheerfully. The kombatants sat down on the sofas.
"Ok, so let's see…ladies, I'm going to hand you out your presents. Catch!" said Santa Claus. He threw the boxes to the girls and they opened the presents quickly.
Kitana got a teddy bear, Mileena got a pink sweater, Nitara got a music box, Ashrah got a porcelain doll, Li Mei got a beautiful white rose with a note tied to a red ribbon, Sindel got a painting of a panda, Sareena got a jar with fireflies, and Sonya got silver mirror with a note. They all smiled to the guys and they smiled back.
"Remember girls, don't ask from who was the present that you received" said Santa.
"But why? Then how would we thank that person?" asked Ashrah.
"You don't need to thank just that person, because you have many people around with the same love. Christmas is not about receiving, but for giving, and not only presents, but love" explained Santa.
"Haha, loser! You got only a dorky rose! I got a cozy sweater and it is pink!" bragged Mileena to Li Mei.
"I don't care. The thought is what matters. It has a beautiful poem too. And you really needed that sweater to cover you up" said Li Mei. Everybody chuckled.
Sonya read the note from her present: 'Babe, you and me in the closet at midnight…under the mistletoe', it had to be from that bastard! I'll give this note to someone else, and make a responding note to Kano, thought Sonya and she grinned.
"Now it's the turn of the gentlemen. Catch!" said Santa. He threw the presents to the guys and they opened them.
Kenshi got a flute, Scorpion got a skateboard, Kano got a tie, Ermac got rollerblades, Shao Khan got a golden scarf, Baraka got a pair of sporty sunglasses, Sub-zero got a leather jacket, and Raiden got a CD player. They thanked the girls.
Sonya gave the note secretly to Baraka with PS saying that he does not have to make noise; and a response note to Kano. And they fell for it.
Kano's note said that he did not have to make a single sound, in order to make it 'interesting', and that he has to come at midnight sharp. Kano felt lucky as well as Baraka.
It was close to midnight and Baraka entered the closet and he waited. In minutes, Kano entered the dark closet and reached with his hands until he touched something, or should I say someone. Then, they kissed but just immediately knew that something was wrong.
"Mileena, your lips are flat" said Baraka.
"Baraka, is that you? Dude! You don't have lips at all, and I'm not Mileena!" shouted Kano turning on the light. Baraka and Kano shrieked at what happened and ran from the closet.
Sonya had invited the other kombatants to see the show and they received them with laughter.
"Well kiddos, I must go now. Have a Merry Christmas!" said Santa in a drunk tone. He had a difficulty to walk towards the snowy garden. Li Mei ran off to help him. They were already in the garden, away from the others.
"Oh girl don't worry, I can walk by myself" said Santa. His breath was alcoholic.
"Hey, you seem very familiar…you are…Master Bo Rai Cho!" exclaimed Li Mei when she noted the difference in the color of the beard. "Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"
"Because it was a surprise and a special occasion" explained Bo Rai Cho.
"Oh…but can you get all of us out of here?" asked Li Mei with hope.
"Sorry little flower, I can't do that. I realized that this experience will leave you unforgettable moments, great memories, and much more" said the drunken master smiling. She sighed.
"Have a Merry Christmas! Ho ho ho!" said Bo Rai Cho disappearing in a green cloud.
"Merry Christmas" she whispered.
The snow was simply beautiful. Li Mei threw herself to the snow and made snow angels. Other kombatants followed her.
Meanwhile with Shang Tsung and Quan Chi…
"I can't believe they had their first Christmas with a drunken Santa Claus" said Shang Tsung.
"At least only Li Mei knew it was Bo Rai Cho" said Quan Chi.
"Good point. Hey man, I got you a double present" said Shang Tsung handing to Quan Chi a green box.
He opened it and it had a saxophone and black glasses.
"Wow dude! You are the best! Now I can interpret my favorite jazz tunes" said Quan Chi with a smile. "Here is my present to you", and he handed to Shang a red box.
He opened it and it contained what Shang Tsung has been waiting for a long time.
"STREET FIGHTER 4!" yelled the sorcerer in a tremendous happiness. Quan Chi laughed at his reaction.
"Thanks dude! You are the best" said Shang.
"We forgot to give the combatants the 'special punch' " said the necromancer.
"Don't worry, we'll give it to them eventually" said the sorcerer.
A beautiful holiday has ended but the great moments of it will be carved in the memory of the kombatants.
I guess I made it quite long. I hope it was not too annoying or boring. But I updated fast! It looks like that I put a little more attention to Kano, and it is just only that I like messing with him :D I'll leave to your imagination who made each one of the presents.
PLEASE REVIEW! Reviews tell me that the story is being read! REVIEW! :D
Oh and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Better late than never ;)
