Blue team and Triska continued to lower the number of shadows from the never ending wave, all happening while Shao Kahn fought the Hero of Oakvale to an Stalemate:
The Hero: I have to give you credit, you are far stronger than anything I've ever fought... -He said with honesty-
Shao Kahn: Flattery won't save you, I'll will do what that Fool Jack could never do... I'll end your pathetic life!
As the name "Jack" was spoke, The Hero remembered the monster that Destroyed his Village, That killed his family, tortured him for years and... forced him to Kill his Guildmaster... the memory of holding the limp body of the Elderly man in the Rain that washed away the red stains on his armor, The blood of the old man whom trained him since his village was burnt down...
Shao Kahn took advantage of the small opening and hit the Hero with an Brutal impact with his Wrath Hammer, sending him reeling back into an Wall, After sliding down the wall, the hero laid on his Knees, his sword far from reach and an Powerful Emperor walking forward to him. Without hesitation, the Wrath Hammer hit the hero square in the jaw, knocking the helmet off the hero's head.
Shao Kahn: You are Weak... not even worth my effort; Your true strength relies on that blade.
Shao Kahn then lifted up the hero and placed him on his feet and afterwards the Hero headbutted the Emperor, breaking his nose under his helmet.
Hero: Even without my sword, I'm strong enough to kick your arse...
Shao Kahn: you'll never win!
Hero: Try stopping me... RAGEEEEE!
Then all of a Sudden, An Red Aura covered the hero and he grew three times in muscle mass, he put himself in Bezerk mode with an spell, he was taller than Shao Kahn and muscular, like crazy muscular. He tackled the emperor down and right after he lifted him up and threw him at a wall. He walked up the Solus Greatsword and Picked it up and ran towards Shao Kahn, who avoided getting his head being sliced in half by using his Wrath Hammer as a Shield. they continued to battle, while Triska and Blue team gunned downed the last of the Shadows.
Triska: That's the last of 'em... now to finish off that guy with the hammer.
Triska reloaded and blue team nodded in approval then they charged into the area only to see Shao Kahn in the losing side of the battle. Shao Kahn had a couple gashes on his body, his tainted blood was on his body and on the floor, his wounds slowly healed but thanks to the large amount of damage that he took he was getting weaker.
The hero was returning to his original self but his hands were packing heat of their own... His Left Hand was covered in lighting that was spewing from his fist and his Right Hand was burning in blue flames then his gaze was settled on the Emperor, an gaze that if looks could kill, Shao Kahn would have disintegrated from existence. As the Hero walked forward, the loose stones on the ground and pebbles began rising into the air. Because of this, the Cage that hanged from his belt began rising until it opened on its own and the mask broke free seconds before the mask of Jack fell upon the hero's hand a moment later it was put on, making his eyes glow and turned into dragon like eyes.
The Hero: When I killed Jack, his mask tricked me into putting it on... but after I destroyed the remnants of Jack's soul, this hideous mask became the key for unlocking even more power within me... -He lifted up his right hand and created a Fireball, which shot out electricity... for every step that he took, it grew in size...- ...I've been learning from my descendants, watching their progress and new findings using Will, so this comes from the mind of the Queen that dethroned Logan... -he looks at the ball-... And I wanted to know how it felt killing the first sod to attempted to kill me with it. -his eyes flickered orange but turned blue-
Shao Kahn lunged forward with his wrath hammer only to have it grabbed by the Hero with one hand and having the Charged Fireball impact him in a very close range with the other, causing Shao Kahn to burst in flames and electrocuted. five seconds later he fell to the ground, his skin was sizzling, the sound of his blood literally boiling was barely audible but was there but even by all that, The Emperor of Outworld began moving to the point where he got back to his knees using his hammer as a clutch. He coughed blood before looking up, seeing the Hero holding the Solus Greatsword...
Shao Kahn: I'm Shao... Kahn... T- The destro- destroyer of... of... o-... Worlds!... -he tried standing up-... I'm a Go-god...
The Hero: Even Gods die... -he swung his blade horizontally towards Shao Khan's neck-
The Giant, Yellow blade sliced Shao Kahn's head cleanly, perfectly severing his head from his neck, causing a huge explosion/fountain of blackened blood to spray all over the dead Emperor's kneeling corpse and the Platinum armor of its executioner; The head rolled into the courtyard, Before he pushed the headless body with his leg, he wiped his mask from the blackened blood... Blue team stepped out of the way as Kahn's head rolled down near them with a gaping mouth death face; Triska walked pass it and holstered her weapon:
Triska: You okay, big man?... need to clean up.
The Hero gave her an confused look before nodding.
Triska: My name is Triska Novak... we've been looking for you... umm... mister? -she was doing that thing where the other person says their name-
The Hero: I have no name but you can call me Archon.
Triska: Okay, Archon... we are looking for beings of powers capable of dealing with gods... well that's what they keep telling me.
Archon: You wish for me to join your cause to kill Shadow God Ramtus?
Everyone stared at the Hero with confusion, the Spartans's faces couldn't be seen but it was obvious that they were confused.
Triska: Ramtus?... that's his name?
Archon: Yes, he tried bringing me to his side more than one time... it was because of my knowledge of ancient text and incantations... he sees me as a threat for his powers, due to my ability to understand his language for spells...
Triska: Which is? -Making an hand gesture that said "Spill the beans"-
Archon: Its Latin or Backwards Latin... depends of how furious he may be but he fears his brother more that he fears individuals like me.
Triska: Blue team, keep guard here and try to close the entry portal from here and open an exit portal.
Buck: Wilco...
Triska then follows Archon to an destroyed Pub or bar, the place looked like if it was made for little kids but it had some ale that Archon seemed to enjoy:
Archon: So, I'm guessing that Ramtus has been hitting dimensions hard? -he asked serving some ale to Triska-
Triska: And now with thoes things that blue team and I just fought, He seems to be upgrading his troops...
Archon: Living Shadows, i've fought them before... but these are tougher, Faster and far more dangerous. Ramtus may have brought those beings from the Void or he Contaminated an Shadow Grunt with a... ummm... an Feral Shadow's blood.
Triska: Are you sure you ain't drunk?
Archon: I'm sure... -Sigh-... fine...
Triska: Fine what?
Archon: I'll join you in your quest to defeat Ramtus...
Triska: Well then, we should be leaving...
Then Buck entered the room:
Buck: We opened the portal back to the Nexus chamber.
Triska: Did you close the other one?
Buck: Yes, we should move before more of them show up...
Triska and Archon nodded, then they followed Buck into the Portal. After they left, another portal opened but from it a bunch of Black clad Soldiers with purple auras came out and quickly surrounded the beheaded body of Shao Kahn. The soldiers were wearing Heavy armor and they had an Mask with a Scythe and a Rifle emblem on their shoulder plates. the soldiers were a mix of Space Marines from the 40K dimension, Brotherhood of Steel paladins from the Nuclear Fallout dimension and DeeBee soldiers from the Gears dimension; All of them only had three colors: Black, Purple and Gray, then all of a sudden from the portal, An Mysterious Soldier with an Jetpack, an Robotic weapon arm and thick armor he walks up and stands in the middle of the crowd of soldiers, as they salute him:
Mysterious Soldier: Target Identified... Shao Kahn, Former Emperor of Outworld from Dimension MK1-3D800N. Require new mission details. -Talking to an Radio glued to his armor; His voice was filtrated by his Helmet that had an Built-in Gas mask and Scope for his left eye. Then an DeeBee walked forward and handed him an Chip that the Mysterious soldier put into the Radio-... Commander... we have found Shao Kahn... and as you predicted, he's dead...
Commander: Bring him... every piece of him, Our lord wants him.
Mysterious Soldier: Is Soldier-890BH3K successful in his Mission?
Commander: 890 and 602 have informed of their success... 541...
Soldier 541: What is it Commander?
Commander: Return to base with the Target, ASAP... The boss wants to speak to Us -Emphasis on "Us"-
Soldier 541: Noted...
He made a hand gesture to say "Wrap it Up" then the soldiers lifted the dead Shao Kahn and took him into the Portal and like that they left...
