Mortal Kim
Dis: I don't own anything in this story.
30 years ago:
Sub-Zero took Frosts body back to their training grounds, in order for her to be given a proper burial. Even though she had signed her own death warrant by using the Dragon medallion before she was ready, she still was a major factor in the downfall of the Deadly Alliance. As Sub-Zero said his peace to her he left her grave to start a new generation of the Lin Que. This Lin Que would not only be stronger than the first. It would also be a school for good and protection of the world; Sub-Zero already had the confidence of the thunder god Raiden that he could accomplish this and that was what spurred him to recreate the Lin Que. The problem with frost was that she only saw the power she could posses with her skills, she never thought about the sacrifices and the honor needed for his teachings.
As he left his training dojo he sensed the presences of two people behind him. He wasn't afraid, for these auras had no evil within them. As he turned around, he found himself staring at two young teenaged blondes. The taller one was a young woman with shoulder length hair with chocolate brown eyes. She had a lithe yet strong, and sexy figure her face was pretty if not for her sternness and she wore a basic black ninja gi that had extra cover due to the extreme cold that was Sub-Zero's School. The other was male and shorter than the woman, but his body was very muscular and like the other one he also wore a black ninja gi with extra covering. Looking at the two for a minute Sub-Zero finally spoke.
"Who are you two and what do you want?"
At this both bowed to him low. "Master Sub-Zero, I am William and this is my friend Mai. I am the brother of my departed older sister you know as Frost." Sub-Zero raised an eyebrow at that. "Go on," "We are deeply sorry for what has befallen my sister. We found out about what has happened a few months ago by Raiden. He believed I disserved to know what happened here. He told us everything out of sympathy for Frosts death, the deadly alliance, the mortal combat, as well as what you plan to do now."
Sub-Zero scratched his chin a bit. "I see, but that still doesn't explain what you two are you doing here in this freezing wasteland?"
This time it was Mai who spoke. "My love and I want to join your Lin Que and fight to protect earth realm. We as Frost was, are martial artist and we believe that we can help you redeem the Lin Que name and prove to the world that the Lin Que have changed from ruthless killers and mercenaries to protectors. Please allow us to train in your art and become your students."
Sub-Zero thought about this for awhile. These two seemed to be true in their words for wanting to help him. However he didn't want to have this couple in it just for them to give it up later on. He needed to them to be truly dedicated to this art if they were going to do this. "Are you positive that you two want to do this. If you do then there is now turning back. The Lin Que is a life long devotion; not only this but we will be training in the harshest environment in the world isolated from all the pleasures of the world. You will have to train hard and no complaining for years to come. You may even suffer death if you fall from my teachings even by a hair. Now that you know what you will have to do what is your answer now?"
Both blondes faces held no emotion as they cupped each others hand for reassurance. At once they both answered Sub-Zero. "Yes."
Sub-Zero narrowed his eyes at the couple and realized why Raiden brought them here. They were strong and determined enough fro these teachings. Nodding his head at them he spoke again. "Alright you two get your things into my Ice dojo will start tomorrow."
14 years later:
The training had been long and hard but both young blondes learned well during the ten year training; at the young age of 29, both were very accomplished Lin Que students, the top 2 among the 50 other students Sub-Zero now taught. Raiden as he did with both Will and Mai, sent young students to Sub-Zero to have them taught the ways of the new Lin Que. Soon the Lin Que would be a place of greatness that rivaled the school of peace and light. Today both are going to the quarters of their master for permission to do something they need to do.
They knocked on his door and heard him say to enter. Both walked in on the master and bowed to him. "Master, we have a request we need to ask you."
"go on."
"Well master we have just found out that I have impregnated Mai. We wish to marry on the mainland and raise our child there." Sub-Zero looked at them for a minute until he asked a question. "Are you two going to leave the Lin Que even after you said you wouldn't?"
"Not at all master, we just think it would be better for our child there than here. A baby can't survive this cold, and we would still teach over there just as hard as we did here. Our son will carry on the legacy of the art and we will honor for the rest of our lives."
Sub-Zero looked at them for a minute and asked one last question. "Why do you want to get married are you dong this just because you're pregnant…"
"No" Will interrupted and held Mai's hand tightly. "We want to get married because we love each other. Over the years we have found this out through our confrontations together. This is why we wed master."
"And that William is all I wanted to know. Very well you may leave, but on the condition that when the child is old enough that you bring him heat every summer to have me teach him the ways of my art, agreed?"
"Agreed." Both answered.
9 ½ months later:
In the town of Middleton, in the hospital a young mother hugs her new born son with pride. The father walks up to her. "He has your beautiful eyes Mai." The woman smiled. "Yes he does, doesn't he?"
"I hope you two are very proud, this is a very healthy young boy." Spoke the four mouth pregnant, red-headed doctor, Andrea Possible.
"Yes, we are very proud thank you for all your help. So Will, what shall we name him?"
"Well dear I have always like the name Ronald."
"Hmmm, Ronald (Ron) B. Stoppable, I like that." With this the mother fell asleep with her baby.
