Chapter 10
I had noticed I had left a few characters out for a while, concentrating mainly on the story at hand, so I am making an attempt to bring them back into the storyline. This will be by far the biggest chapter so far!
------------------------------
The Edenian army stood to attention, Sindel had just finished a prep speech for the up coming battle… she knew the chances of winning where slim, but she had to hope for the best. Johnny, Sonya, Jax and Stryker where sparring with eachother, Kenshi and rain where meditating and Cyrax was running a diagnostic check on all of his weaponry, accidentally firing a net which caught Sonya and Johnny together. Cage whispered to Sonya "You know Sonya… I was thinking…" Sonya was about to make a witty insult at him, but with the situation unfolding and the serious yet gentle look in his eyes she kissed him on the cheek then said "If we live through this we will sort things out between us" Johnny had a brief flash back of his past experiences with Sonya, before Cyrax retracted his net, Sonya had escaped the net, Johnny got pulled along the floor, the earth warriors all laughed… humour… one of the few things keeping them going. Suddenly, there was a lot of commotion within the ranks of the soldiers… out of it, stood Li Mei. Sindel and Jade took to their defensive stances, until Bo Rai' Cho stood behind her. Kitana greeted the master trainer, "What are you doing here? Where have you been?" Bo Rai Cho laughed, "After Onaga's defeat, I helped in purifying Li Mei's soul… it was an endeavouring technique, which drained me for a while… I am sorry I could not come sooner, but I found an ally of yours and he has brought a little help. He pointed them to a portal that had opened, out of it stood Nightwolf, along with a load of tribesmen. Nightwolf bowed to Sindel "I have brought out best warriors and Shamen to aid you in your plight" The warriors Nightwolf brought bowed. Sindel smiled, maybe things could go her way after all.
Tanya looked from the mountain tops, she had avoided capture many times in the past, from Shao Kahn, The Edenian's, Jade… but this time, she could not escape… Sektor stood above her, a lasso tied around her which projected from his arm. Tanya cursed herself for har capture…
Tanya overlooked the Edenian camp, she hated Jade for scarring her, no thanks to those Tarkatans… revenge on her mind, she went to sneak in and kill her, when a red cyber ninja stood in her way "You will not compromise my plans" he said in a monotonic voice. She tried fighting, but soon realised it was futile, so she attempted to flee, She was evasive, but Sektor was not human, at least not anymore, therefore easily caught her. She though she would die by his hands, before he said "You are not my target… but you would be useful for distracting him for me"
Sektor had been devising his plan of capturing Rain for a long time now, with his new acquisition it would be so much easier. She wanted revenge on someone else in the camp, he would use her to distract rain, who would undoubtedly attempt to save whoever was being attacked by this warrior, meaning he would be cut off from all other help, making it easier for Sektor to capture him. Sektor smiled beneath his mask… his plans would soon come to fruition… soon, Earth would be his.
Back on Earth…
The entire world was subjected to massive thunderstorms, gale force winds, tornados, hurricanes and the like. Fujin and Raiden fought eachother in Mortal Kombat. These two powerful gods struck eachother, blow for blow, neither of them weakening. Raiden laughed before saying "I am impressed you have lasted this long Fujin, it is unfortunate you do not see things as I do…" Raiden fired a blast of lightning and Fujin, who disappeared into the wind, then reappearing behind Raiden, saying "What? That these humans should be punished for crimes they have not done?" Raiden grunted, teleporting behind Fujin, he attempted a dive attack, but Fujin back flipped over Raiden, releasing a shockwave at point blank range into his back. Raiden teleported before he hit the ground, re-appearing in front of Fujin and hit him with his staff. Fujin stopped himself from succumbing to an onslaught of attacks by staying in the air, unleashing a tornado at Raiden. Raiden stood in the eye of it, Fujin then teleported into it. They stood there, looking at eachother, Raiden then finished the argument "Doing nothing IS their crime… the fate of the realms are in the balance, and these pitiful mortal are the only ones who do nothing" Fujin stood there quiet he then replied "Then I have no choice… for the sake of earth… you must be defeated… I am sorry old friend…" They both took to their stances as the tornado dissipated.
Meanwhile…
Seprion entered the Pit II, he could sense Shang Tsung's energy in this area, he had to be here. He looked around, seeing only shadow priests. He thought to himself, "Without their leader, they are nothing more then souls with no aim in life… how pitiful" he turned his back to them, to search for the sorcerer, when he was hit in the back by a powerful fireball. He fell to one knee, looking back, he saw one of the priest's turn into Shang Tsung "I should have expected that…" Seprion said, he stood up to face his nemesis, "You have grown powerful, it is a shame so many had to die again, before your evil was finally wiped out" Seprion took to his stance. Shang Tsung laughed "Oh contraire… I shall consume your powerful soul, becoming far superior to any being, living or dead!" Shang Tsung attacked with a fireball, while Seprion countered with an energy ball. They then both charged at eachother, both connecting with a punch.
Reptile stopped, he could sense fighting coming from all corners of the realm, which one should he investigate first… which battle should he terrorise with his animalistic rage and brute strength? He smiled to himself and turned around "You can sssstop following me now… ssshow yourssself!" Khameleon made herself known to Reptile, coming out of her invisibility. Reptile was confused, how did a human have a power of his people… unless. "You… are of my people?" Khameleon nodded "I am… My name is Khameleon… I have been searching for you for many years Reptile… we are the last of our race… but we can repopulate our race, begin anew, without tyranny, without rule… just us" Reptile started to calm down… for the first time in many years, Reptile was at peace with himself. His skin started to go pale, that of human colour, going into his more humane form, It has been too long since he was able to do this, he was now more focused and controlled then ever. "I would like that a lot, so i…" He stopped, he was no longer making the hissing sound in his speech, he now realised that he could now hide amongst the human race when needed now, having not to fear his voice will give him away. Suddenly, Khameleon was hit from behind. Reptile put up his guard, he then heard laughing, before being stuck himself, he quickly recovered. "You are a fool to have stop moving… now I can kill you and end your races line forever" Reptile growled, then smiled under his mask, reptile, without turning around grabbed over his shoulder, grabbing his hidden opponent by the head and throwing him over his shoulder. The warrior landed on his feet, a little shocked though. "How? How could you do that?" Reptile did not reply to this question, but asked one of his own. "Who are you?" The warrior stood up "I am Chameleon… I am of a race rivalled to yours… Shao Kahn wiped my race into extinction, except me… so I plan on mating with this… thing here… in an attempt to repopulate MY race… but I cannot do that until you are dead!" Chameleon glowed a little bit, his gi gear glowed different colours, stopping on grey. Reptile sighed, this would take some time. Chameleon stated emitting smoke… so, it is a blind fight he wanted… 'Fine with me' Reptile thought. He ran is his rival and begun to attack.
------------------------
Those who asked me where 'this' or 'that' character was can relax… the only one not brought into this yet is Darrius, but he will soon, you will find out what he has been doing very soon.
So, what do you think? Have I done this representation well so far? Anything you don't understand? Then please ask, I shall be happy to explain
To SaiyanWarrior200: Although I messaged this to you, I may as well post it here so others may see. Rain was on Earth after being cut of from Kahn's invasion forces when he last invaded earth before the time Shinnok did. I briefly touched on what he did in this time, but not fully, but that will come when he has an encounter with a particular character.
