Battle I: Kitana VS Scorpion

Stage: The Pit

Scorpion laughed at Kitana before assuming his stance. This puny assassin would

be no problem. When Kahn boomed, "FIGHT!", he instantly extended his arm and

threw his potent harpoon. But years of experience in the field fighting

numerous villains prepared Kitana well. She sidestepped, carefully avoiding the

ledge of the fatal bridge, and sliced downward at the living projectile. She

decapitated its head, rendering it useless. Scorpion yelled in rage and

charged at her, unleashing a series of four high kicks. Kitana blocked the first

three but was hit with the last. She was sent sprawling on the bridge. She

rolled to the side to avoid being stomped on and leapt to her feet with a flying

kick.

Her foot jammed into the dead man's jaw and sent him crashing back to earth. She

readjusted her mask before unsheathing her fans and throwing them both at the

yellow ninja. One of them made a deep cut in his arm. He howled and struggled to

get up. He took off his mask and started to spit fire at Kitana, trying to

incinerate her before she even got close to him.

Kitana had anticipated this, however, and using her own brand of magic, she

jumped over the flames and zoomed at Scorpion, her right arm outstretched. She

caught him right in the nose, and she was satisfied when she heard a definite

crack. He tried to attack but she caught his foot and did a potent Ba Gua

reversal that left him with a broken foot. He got up shakily, and Kahn yelled

"FINISH HIM!" Kitana knew that it would be the right thing to end his suffering,

so she ducked low and came up with an uppercut so fierce that he was knocked

off the bridge and he landed to his death at the bottom of the gorge.

Winner: Kitana

"My lord, you had bade me to watch Kitana and see if her motives were true. She

is not on your side, my lord. She is a spy now for Earth and is plotting

against you. Give me the word and I shall dispatch of her."

"You have done well, Mileena. But you shall not kill her yet. I want to see how

far she makes it, and how foolish she is to stand up to me. When the time comes,

you shall have her head."

"Thank you, my lord."

Battle II: Liu Kang VS Sub-Zero

Stage: Wastelands

Liu was confident. He knew it was his destiny to win this tournament and defend

Earth Realm. He would do whatever it took to win. Sub-Zero was equally as

confident. His freezing power would destroy Liu Kang and his puny fireballs.

When the match started, Sub-Zero instantly froze Liu Kang and made him immobile.

He followed up with a powerful uppercut that sent Liu up into the sky. Sub-Zero

jumped up into the air and sent Liu Kang back down to earth with an overhead

punch. Liu landed on his side and was injured badly. He got up and shot

a combination of low-high-medium fireballs. Sub-Zero dodged one but got hit

successively twice. He reeled back and Liu took the advantage to deliver a

potent flying kick. Sub-Zero crashed on the floor and got up, only to be sent

back down again with a bicycle kick. Bruise, battered, and beaten, Sub-Zero

tried to muster his strength to send an ice blast, but Liu kicked him in the

face hard. Sub-Zero tried to block out the pain, but Liu uppercutted him

and he knew no more.

Winner: Liu Kang

Battle III: Kung Lao VS Mileena

Mileena grinned behind her mask and pulled out both of her sais. If she could

defeat a god, this idiotic monk would be no problem. She twirled them

nonchalantly and narrowed her eyes to mere slits. Kung Lao stanced into his

Shaolin Fist and readied himself for combat.

Mileena swiftly teleported and reappeared above Kung Lao, sending her foot

crashing into his belly. He collapsed and before he could get up his biceps were

impaled by Mileena's sais. He screamed out loud and tried to concentrate, but

he was loosing blood fast. He pulled them out of his arms painfully and before

he could make any attack, he fainted from loss of blood.

Liu rushed up to him.

"Kung Lao? Are you okay?" But Kung Lao made no response. Raiden teleported next

to them and said,

"He'll be okay, let's get him patched up." Raiden and Liu supported Kung Lao as

he was taken off the stage. Mileena was chuckling devilishly. Kitana walked up

to Mileena and congratulated her.

"Nice one. That was a clever trick you just did," said Kitana approvingly.

"Thank you sister," said Mileena. Kitana was one heck of an actress.

"I know you saw me talking to Liu Kang. I'm fooling him and Raiden. I just want

you and Master Kahn to know that I am on your side." Mileena was shocked. How

could she have known that she was watching them?!

"Very well. But I am warning you, any false moves and I will show no mercy,"

she said harshly.

"I swear, nothing will happen."

Current Survivors:

Liu Kang, Kitana, Mileena.
