A portal opens in Netherrealm, and Quan Chi stands by, waiting for Scorpion's arrival.
Scorpion enters into Netherrealm and is greeted by Quan Chi. Immediately, he noticed the necromancer giving him a strange look. No doubt, he noticed the pink robe.
Without wasting time, Scorpion began revealing the details of Shao Kahn's plan.
"The emperor seeks to unite his Outworld forces with Netherrealm's forces and ..."
Quan Chi interrupted, "What ...are ...you ...wearing?"
Scorpion, slightly annoyed, answered, "What does it look like?"
"Explain yourself!" the necromancer demanded.
Scorpion rolled his eyes at Quan Chi, not like he would notice anyway. As if it wasn't obvious enough.
"Shao Kahn did not have a meeting as he said he would. It was a party."
Quan Chi raised a brow. "And that outfit?"
"I had too much to drink and woke up in bed with a woman. My clothes were ..." he paused for a moment, "Missing." He didn't want to reveal too many details or the fact that he ended up in bed with one of Shao Kahn's daughters.
"I see." Quan Chi smirked as if amused, which annoyed Scorpion even more.
"Well then," the necromancer continued with business, "I suggest you focus on your goal for the next meeting. Gaining the emperor's trust."
"I never strayed from that goal."
"Are you certain? We can't afford anymore," Quan Chi eyed the pink robe, "distractions."
"This won't happen again!" Scorpion declared firmly.
"I sure hope so." the necromancer said as if he was in doubt.
Scorpion wanted to hurl curse words his way, but simply nodded to him and walked away in silence. Smashing his skull in would be a pleasure at the moment, but right now, his main focus was to change out of this ridiculous pink robe and into his attire.
He found a remote spot and summoned all his weapons and clothes. This little trick he could pull in Netherrealm, but nowhere else. Immediately he took off the robe and threw it on the ground. Then he stopped when he noticed small streaks of blood on the back.
He looked at his shoulder and noticed the scratches. They weren't deep, but they went all the way down his back.
Mileena's imprint on him.
Oh, she will pay for that!
But first, he will gain the emperor's trust and then make her pay.
With that, he had another goal set in mind.
