Chapter 9- Fall of a warrior- Randy.

Time, I just need more time. More than just thirty minutes, more than just a twenty-second head start. I needed time to prepare my plan, if all goes well. Everyone will leave here happy no doubt, I was planning my idea up in the trees when I could see frost glistering in the sun. One was onto me. His steps were silent. Hardly noticeable, but at least I will be able to take down a few of them. His frost powers were nothing compared t Sub-Zero, yet he must be taken seriously. He stood under the tree I was in, in a split moment he fired ice from his hands right at me! I countered with a fireball melting his blast, leaping from my post I stood on the ground as he charged right at me. I blocked all his major attacks and knew he would be setting up for an ice blast or something. I managed to kick him some distance away from me. Man was he pissed.

"You improved!" he said to me.

"Yeah, so show me what you got" I smirked back. The warrior summoned his ice powers, as I summoned my fire in my hands. I saw a very vital weak spot of his blast; he gathered it above his head. I noticed the air around him also was in sub zero temperature that was his weakness too.

"Sorry, I can't stay and chat. So you're gonna be on ice" I smirked. Blasting his energy with fire, what ice he had gathered turned to water. When it came down on him. He froze in place. His eyes could still move under the layer of ice. "One down" I smirked. He then vanished as I heard wings above me. It was Rob.

"One Lin Kuei has been defeated!" he called aloud to the island, letting the other four know of their fallen comrade. Now then, to find the others and I think I knew where one would be. I teleported myself to Scorpion's lair, no doubt one would be staking out here… yet where…

My question was soon answered when I felt a hard punch come across my face. His one can blend into any background… like Reptile! I felt a stiff kick come across my stomach, and laughter in the lair. "Fool, you can't hit what you can't see!" he laughed aloud.

I smirked back. "You can't hide from everything you know" I called out my living harpoon creature. It instantly caught a scent of someone in the room and went after it. "COME HERE!" I yelled aloud. The harpoon was off like a shot as it went to the very middle of the poles snapping on in half with its jaws. Something heavy was falling to the ground and landed harshly in the sand. I tried to think of a way to get this guy visible once more. My belt carried a small water pack. Kane packed it for me; wait… if I can get a part of him wet, and throw sand on him… I could see him! I called back my harpoon, and looked about the room. It was silent, not even an air current could be heard in here. Looking to my creature I gave it the water pack. "Bite down when you are close" I whispered to it. I sent to out again, this time; it bit down and splashed water right into the warrior's face. He fell blindingly into the sand… making him visible! "I…see...yoooou" I sanged aloud. He got himself off the ground and charged at me, he wasn't at full capacity since he was blinded and all. Nonetheless I was able to knock him out with around house kick, he was teleported way after the knock out. Two down now… three to go.

Time was running out for me, I had to get this challenge down and over with. On my way out of the lair I was bombarded by fire! Above me was one of the more serious Lin Kuei; this was the one that hated my guts. "Finally, I get you all to myself!" he grinned.

"About damn time huh? Well then. Bring it on!" I snapped back to him. He made his arms go ablaze like what Kane could do and charged right at me. This was going to be hard, since I maybe able to control fire. Yet I can't block an oncoming attack like this! His arms burned me every time I blocked a punch from him. He sculled my face when he landed a good one, kneed me in the stomach to bring me to my knees. Damn, he has been training hard. He was laughing when he brought his boot to my face and shoved it into the sand. "Taste your defeat boy. Do you give up?" he asked.

"Go to hell" I growled back. I wasn't going to lose to this guy. I pulled myself from under his foot, sweeping his legs from under him. I got to my feet once more. Calling out both of my harpoons this time and setting them ablaze. "Time to fight fire with fire!" I yelled out to him. I bought them down like a whip; he tried to block with his arms not realizing how hot these things really were. They burned like the fires of hell on his skin, drawing blood each time I lashed at him. His uniform was ripped and tethered. He tried to catch them yet couldn't take the heat. I then had my harpoons wrap around him. No doubt this was searing into his flesh, for I could smell it from here.

"Surrender!" I yelled at him. He didn't say a word. He only smirked.

"You kill me boy… you deal with Sub-Zero!" he laughed. What a damn fool, he rather have me kill him then surrender. I called back the harpoons, the idiot laughed at me. "You're soft, for I would be willing to die if it meant your death!" he laughed. His arms fired up once more. I summoned my own as we locked arms. We were battling in a blazing fire. Seeing who had the stronger will.

My body blistered and burned from his flame, as mine did the same to him. "Give up boy! I have mastered the flame!" he yelled to me.

"Never, you may have control over the flame… but I do as well!" With a burst, I breathed fire right into his face. He pulled out of the lock and blindly walked around unable to see. I used a nerve pinch Shao Kahn had taught me, making him pass out instantly and vanishing. Two left… I know what I have to do now. I stormed into the woods making as much noise as I can. "I'M RIGHT HERE! THE LEGEND KILLER RANDY ORTON, COME GET ME!" I yelled into the sky, my voice echoed off the trees. I could hear rustling in the trees. They were coming. It was time to end this all once and for all…
