Light out of the Darkness

Chapter 6

Goro's turn!

Jon Talbain: "So what your saying is if we lose our 3rd match, Shang Tsung will take our soul?"

Liu Kang: "exactly, what still bugs me is why we get three chances."

Johnny: "you know that is quite odd."

Talbain: "I also heard them talking about light and the dark fighters."

Liu Kang: "I have no idea what that could be."

"hello Liu Kang." Kung Lao said as he entered the room holding up a rat creature and walking beside Nightwing.

Johnny Cage: "Hey kung lao, who's your friends?"

Nightwing: "just call me Nightwing."

Kung Lao: "Just call him splinter, they helped me in a battle."

Ken: "it looks like he took a good beating."

Liu Kang: "um, I've never seen a creature that looks like this, where is he from?"

Kung Lao: "New-York city, he said he lives in a sewer with some mutated turtles."

Ken: "where are they?"

Kung Lao: "Thousands, and thousands, of miles back at New York."

Jon Talbain: "I think we should explain the situation to Kung Lao, and I think Nightwing should be in on this."

In the woods.

Raiden: "I see, thanks for the information Kenshi."

Robin: "what do we do from here?"

Raiden: "head back to the tournament, Goro is almost ready to fight."

Robin: "who the heck is he?"

Sub-Zero: "oh great, Tim Drake am I right, Goro was the champion before Liu Kang showed up."

Kenshi: "Raiden, do any of us stand a chance against him yet?"

Raiden: "I've looked into everyone's soul at this tournament, there aren't many warriors that can beat him."

SubZero: "Was that a yes or a no, just throw it down on the table thunder god."

Raiden: "the answer is no, but that doesn't mean you don't have time to prepare yourselves."

Kenshi: "then let us head back to the tournament."

Raiden: "be careful you three."

Raiden disappears.

The next morning.

Ryu wakes up to see Cletus throwing rocks. Ryu sits up and sees Juunanagou and Eddie sitting up against two different trees.

"your up, I guess we can be on our way." Eddie said as he sat up.

Ryu: "works for me, but do you know the way out of here?"

"according to my calculations we should head that way." Juunanagou said pointing forward.

Ryu: "let's go."

Cletus: "I'll lead the way."

#17: "but you don't even know where your going."

Cletus: "Straight, unless of course your calculations are wrong."

Eddie Brock: "let's just go instead of talking."

The four of them run back to towards the tournament.

At a temple.

Shang Tsung walks into a dark room filled with candles.

"I'm I up my master?" A voice said in the dark.

Shang Tsung: "Yes our enemies have survived long enough, take them out Goro."

Goro: "with pleasure!"

Goro walks out of the shadows into the light of the candles.

At the tournament.

Nightwing: "Whelp, I've won three matches so far with ease."

Ken: "trust me it will get harder, take scorpion for an example he beat me and Johnny Cage at the same time."

Nightwing: "I got to face this scorpion guy."

Liu Kang: "hey Nightwing and Ken have you guy's seen ryu around?"

At that moment, Eddie, Cletus, Ryu, Tim Drake, Juunanagou, SubZero, and Kenshi show up.

Kung Lao: "so where were you guy's at?"

Kenshi: "getting information."

Eddie Brock: "It should be my turn to fight."

Eddie runs into the ring and waits for fifteen minutes.

Shang Tsung: "well Mr. Brock it seems John Gared isn't coming which makes you the winner."

"It doesn't get any easier or boring then that." Eddie said as he walked out of the ring to see Morrigan.

Morrigan: "I'm sorry about John Gared me and him had a talk in my room last night. You see Eddie your going to be mine."

Eddie: "I know what you did to him, you."

Morrigan cut's him off by leaning up and wrapping her arms around his neck and placing a soft kiss on his lips.

Morrigan: "you should be thanking me, Eddie Brock."

"I don't need your help." Eddie said as he pulls away and walks over to his friends.

Ken: "wow that looked like your toughest match by far."

Eddie: "oh would you shut up Ken."

Ken laughs at his remark. Shang Tsung steps onto the fighting ring.

Shang Tsung: "All of you are the remaining fifty warriors, that means you all have a chance to fight the prince of pain himself, Goro!"

Tim: "raiden was telling us about him."

Shang Tsung: "the matches with Goro will start in five minutes, so be prepared."

Kung Lao: "um, Goro, this early I thought it was in the remaining twenty-five."

Johnny: "so did I, it must be different this year."

Four hours pass by.

"wow no one has even come close to beating him, now I'm a little scared to face him." Ken said as he sat into a chair sipping a fruit juice drink.

Scorpion: "your fear will be your down fall, remember this, use your surroundings."

Johnny comes running to Ken's table.

Johnny: "Nightwing is about to face Goro."

They run to the fighting room to see a crowed of Shang Tsungs guards and other fighters watching and cheering. Nightwing jumps up and kicks Goro in the face making him walk backwards a little bit.

Goro: "rah!"

Goro fires a fire blast at Nightwing sending him to the ground. Nightwing flips back up and throws a couple punches. Goro finally grabs Nightwings hands with his bottom ones, and starts pounding on him with his top hands.

Robin: "Dick, you have to get out of there!"

After another minute of pounding on Nightwing, Goro let's him fall to the ground unconscious.

Goro: "he's done master."

Shang Tsung: "good, your soul is mine!"

Shang Tsung zaps up Dick Grayson's/Nightwings soul.

Robin: "No, hang on I'm coming!"

"let him go, that would be breaking the rules." he putt's a hand on Robins shoulder."

Robin wipes the tears from his eye's and falls to his knees.

Liu Kang: "I'm sorry Tim, I thought you guy's might want to know that the rat creature woke up."

Robin stands up.

Robin: "let's go and see him then."

Liu Kang and Robin walk into a dark room filled with two candles.

Liu Kang: "Mr. Splinter, how are you feeling."

Splinter: "I'm feeling fine."

Ken walks in.

Liu Kang set's on the floor facing Splinter.

Liu Kang: "so how did you get dragged into this fight?"

"I'll start from the beginning when I was no more then a pet rat." Splinter said.

Forty-five minutes.

Splinter: "I named them Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael, and Donatello."

Robin: "Let me get this straight, you were on your way to a place called the battle nexus but when you jumped into the portal it brought you here?"

Liu Kang: "in the middle of a battle, right."

Splinter: "you both are correct, you two may go now as I need my rest."

Robin and Liu Kang walk back into the dirt floor hall ways.

Ken: "Splinter, how do we beat Goro?"

Splinter: "There is a way Ken, but you must find that for yourself, here take these ninja shurikens."

Ken walks out of the room.

Outside the tournament grounds.

Demitri Maximoff: "I see, so Eddie is back to normal, interesting you may go now." With that vampire-Sonya walks off."

"ha ha ha, Maximoff you clown you should have known you couldn't control him." Joker said as he entered the room filled with gold and other merchandise.

Demitri: "what do you want Joker?"

Joker: "I've come to tell you that Goro has begun fighting."

Demitri: "What!"

Joker: "he's already taken down many of the fighters, but don't worry Ryu and Liu Kang have been left un touched."

Demitri: "we don't have time to wait until tomorrow, we attack tonight!"

Joker: "now your talking, ha ah ha ha ah ah ha!"

Back at the tournament, Cammy stretches as she waits for Goro to enter the ring.

A Guard: "hey sweetie, I hope you can fight as good as you look, ha ha."

Another Guard: "why don't you and me go on a date."

Cammy ignores the guards and continues to stretch. Goro comes roaring into the room, as everyone begins to cheer his name.

Shang Tsung: "Round one, Fight!"

Cammy runs over and does a jump kick on Goro, he doesn't move an inch.

Goro: "you really think you can beat me little girl?"

Goro punches cammy to the ground. Cammy flips up onto Goro's shoulder, she then try's to twist his neck with here legs but Goro throws her into the air.

Goro: "nice try, but I don't go down that easy."

Cammy runs over and try's to kick goro, this time he teleports and stops on her.

Goro: "pathetic."

He holds her by her up into the air by her hands with his top arms. Then he takes his two free arms and starts beating on her chest, face, and stomach. After two minutes of this Goro drops her to the ground as she coughs out blood falling unconscious.

Shang Tsung: "Finish her."

Goro: "this will be fun."

As Goro walks towards her Eddie Brock jumps in front of him.

Shang Tsung: "what is this, Eddie get out of the way."

Eddie: "no."

Shang Tsung: "kill him."

Goro putt's on a smirk and runs toward Eddie Brock who transforms into Venom.

Venom: "come and get me!"

Venom uppercut's Goro to the ground. Everyone watches in amazement.

Venom: "she's not in good condition, I have to get her out of here."

With that Venom picks up cammy and runs off.

Shang Tsung: "Goro, follow him don't let him get away!"

Goro: "yes sir."

Goro runs after him. Venom bumps into Ken.

Ken: "Eddie what's going on?"

He quickly notices Goro running towards them.

Ken: "let's run for it!"

They run into a dark room.

Venom: "I would fight him but I have to get her somewhere safe."

Goro blocks the door way.

Goro: "now your trapped, this is my lair."

Venom and Ken run even further into the Dark halls.

Ken: "you keep going, I'll keep four arms busy."

Goro runs into a room to see Ken standing there.

Goro: "where are the other two!"

Ken pushes his hair back.

Ken: "There none of your concern."

Goro: "I don't have time for you little man, where is Venom!"

Ken: "You won't get a word out of, ah!"

Goro grabs him by the neck and pulls him up to his face.

Goro: "where is, Venom!"

Ken rams his knee into Goro's balls which makes him drop him. Ken gasps for air. Then he shoots an energy blast at Goro sending him to the ground.

Goro: "rah, you will pay!"

Goro pushes up with his four arms then he teleports, but Ken jumps out of the way and does a spin kick making Goro spin into the wall. Ken runs over to Goro and throws a punch Goro catches it then swings Ken into another wall. Then Goro runs over and beats on Ken.

A minute passes as Ken lays on the ground defeated.

Goro: "I've had enough of you, it's time to die."

Ken looks up at the ceiling and sees spike.

Flash-back: Scorpion: "use your surroundings."

Ken then remembers the shurikens he was given by Splinter.

Ken: "I got it."

Ken flips to his feet and throws two shurikens up at the chains holding up the spikes. Ken does a back flip out of the way.

Goro: "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

The spikes fall on Goro as he looks up.

Outside the temple.

Venom lays Cammy on the grass. Venom turns back into Eddie Brock.

Eddie: "She's not breathing, ok first make an airway."

He opens her mouth.

Eddie Brock: "Cammy I know you'll really hate me for this but it is the only way."

Eddie puts his mouth against hers and begins to blow.

Eddie Brock: "there's no pulse."

He pushes down on here chest again then he blows air into her lungs again. Cammy begins to cough. She slowly opens her eye's to see Eddie over her. She pops up and slams Eddie to the ground and sits on top of him. She puts her hands on his shoulder forcing him down.

Cammy: "what the hell were you doing to me."

"feeling better already, oh am I interrupting anything." Liu Kang said standing next to Talbain and Kenshi.

Cammy: "You didn't answer my question."

Eddie Brock: "Hey cammy you mind getting off of me?"

She removes her hands from his shoulder, she crosses her arms as he sits up.

Eddie: "Could you get off my of me, your still sitting on me."

She quickly jumps off of him.

Eddie Brock: "Well as you can see you were fighting Goro when I."

At that moment Demitri Maximoff appears.

Demitri Maximoff: "hello Edward, it's time for you all to die so say your goodbyes."

Kenshi, Liu Kang, Cammy, Eddie Brock, and Jon Talbain get into there fighting stances.

To Be continued.
