Disclaimer: I do not own Mortal Kombat in any way shape or form.

A/N: Yay! My first Mortal Kombat fic! Ok, basically, this is the Mortal Kombat fighters when they were kids. This first chapter will be on Liu Kang, but I will take requests for future chapters. Just one rule: I won't do characters that were exclusive to MK4 and MK Deception, because I haven't played those. And all I know about Kai is that he was Liu's friend. Now, sit back and enjoy.

----------------------------------------------Liu Kang--------------------------------------------------

Liu's mother walked outside to the Kang family back yard.

"Liu, stop using your flying kick on your brother THIS INSTANT!" she shouted.

"Yes mother, I won't do it again," Liu replied with an expression that said "yeah right!"

As his mother started to lecture him, he started kicking his little brother Chow again. "Master Bo'Rai Cho didn't teach you that kick to beat up your brother with, you know. He taught you it so that you could kick Shang Tsung's wrinkly morphing butt in Mortal Kombat!" she said.

At this point Chow ran inside. Liu started to follow, but his mother caught him.

"Was I finished?" she said.

"Um… Yes? (I hope)"

Enraged at this, she continued to lecture him, "Now you go sit in your room and think about what you've done! Don't come out until I tell you!" With that she dragged him off to his room.

In his room, Liu Kang was mad. "I was supposed to ride my bike with Kai to the movies today! Stupid mother! WHOOOOBIDABA!" he cried as he unleashed a fireball. The fireball hit the wooden wall of his room, and immediately flames sprouted. "Oh crap," was Liu's only thought as he ran into the main room to warn his family.

"Mom, Dad, quick, I've gotta tell…" he managed to get out before being cut off.

"LIU! WHAT ARE YOU DOING DOWN HERE I THOUGHT I GAVE EXPLICIT INSTRUCTIONS TO STAY IN YOUR ROOM UNTIL I SAID YOU COULD COME OUT!" his mother interrupted.

"But Mom…"

"NO "BUTS"! YOU WILL STAY IN YOUR ROOM UNTIL TOMORROW MORNING! AND NO SUPPER!"

At this point they reached the top of the stairs. When Liu's mother saw the fire, she yelled, "WHAT THE HECK DID YOU DO!" and fainted dead away. Liu managed to get all of his family out of the house, but the building and everything in it was lost.

Kai, who was biking down the street to Liu's house after the fire had been doused, saw what had happened. Sadly, Kai wasn't exactly the brightest apple in the barrel, and all he could think to say was, "Ready to go to the movies, Liu?"

"Yeah, but my bike was lost in that fire,"

"What fire was that again?"

"…The one that just happened, you idiot,"

"When was that?"

"… Never mind," said Liu, who became lost in thought and amazed that Kai could even be that stupid. Then, as apparently some of the stupidity had rubbed off on him, he said, "Hey, I know! I'll just use my bicycle kick to get there!"

Liu jumped up in the air with a, "WHOOBIDABA!" and started his trademark bicycle kick. However, even he couldn't stay up in the air forever, so there were many and constant thumps on the path from Liu's house to the theater.
