Chapter 2: The Meet

Kitana is at her mother's throne. Sindel and Jade are very disappointed.

Sindel: What are we going to do with you! I'm very disappointed in you! Your behavior was...

Jade: Unacceptable!

Sindel: The whole thing was...

Jade: Ruin! This concert was supposed to be the most magnificent thing ever! Now I'm the laughing stock of this bloody ocean, because of you!

Mina: It wasn't her fault!

Sindel: What do you mean?

Mina: I mean there was this shark! Yeah that's it. And we were like "whoa!" Then we dodge it and we were safe! Then this seagull with sunglasses was like"blah and blah" and...

Sindel: Seagull with sunglasses? You went up to the surface again, didn't you?

Kitana: Nothing happened, mom.

Sindel: How many times do we have to the whole song-and-dance again, Kitana! You know you're forbidden to go up to the surface!

Kitana: But mother!

Sindel: Don't you "But mother..." me! I don't want to see my youngest daughter engulfed by some fish net!

Kitana: I'm 16 years old! I'm not a little girl!

Sindel: Don't you take that tone with me, young lady! As long as live under here, you will follow my rules! Is that understood?

Kitana: ... (swims away)

Jade and Sindel: Teenagers.

Sindel: Do you think I was too hard on her?

Jade: Of course not, Your Highness! If Kitana were my daughter, I would really lay the hammer down! I would keep her tight control!

Sindel: Your right, Jade! Kitana needs to be under tight control and you're the mermaid to do it!

Jade:( walks away) Me? Kitana's guardian? I should be writing plays and songs. Not watching a headstrong teenager.

(She looks up to see Kitana and Mina swim off somewhere.)

Jade: What's that girl up to?

(She follows them to a large cave with stone blocking it. Mina lifts it and they both swim in. Jade swims in as well, and hides behind a rock.)

Mina: Kitana? Are you okay?

Kitana: I wish I could make her understand. I don't see how a wonderful world, which makes wonderful things, can be bad.

Kitana:

Look at this stuff. Isn't it neat? Wouldn't you think that this collection complete?

Wouldn't you think that this girl has everything checked her list?

Look at this chest? Isn't it great? Wouldn't you think that its full of goodies?

Sure... she's got everything!

I have gadgets and gizmos a plenty! Whoits and whatacallits

Want some thingies? I have 37!

But who cares? I don't cause I want more...

I want to be where the people are

I want to see them jumping and dancing!

Walking in those... what are they called? Oh shoes.

Up where they walk, where they talk, that'll be me up there!

Wish I could be part that world.

What would do get out of the fins?

What would I do to spend the day, under the sun?

I bet a shellfish that they don't limit to where there daughters go.

Nice young women. Sick of swimmin'

Ready to DANCE!

I want to know what the people know.

Ask some questions and gets some answers!

When will I be up there?

To explore the shore up there?

Who am I kidding? I'll never be up there. Part of there... worldddddddddd.

Jade: Kitana!

Kitana: Jade! What are doing here?

Jade: The real question is... what is this junk/

Kitana: My special stuff.

Jade: Oh, I see. IF YOUR MOTHER FOUND THIS PLACE...

Mina: Your not going to tell her, are you?

Kitana: Jade, please don't.

Jade: Kitana, you're under a lot stress down here. Why don't I make you a cup of tea and...

Kitana: (sees a shadow) What's that?

(She swims up to the surface and sees a ship and fireworks)

Jade: Kitana! Come back!

(She swims closer and climbs on. She then sees all the sailors dancing and singing)

Kitana: Wow.

(A dog is barking but stops to smell something. He comes over but Kitana hides. She turns back and the dog is in front of her. She smiles and pets him.)

Liu Kang: Jax! Come here, boy!

(Jax hops over and Kitana sees Liu Kang for the first time. She's in love.)

Cage: (flies over) Kitana! How are you, kid?

Kitana: Johnny! Shhh! They'll hear you!

Cage: Oh. I see. WE'RE OUT TO DIS...

Kitana: (closes his beak) Shut up! I've never been this close to a human before. Isn't he dreamy?

Cage: I don't know. He looks all slobbery and black. (He's a German shepherd)-RCG

Kitana: Not that one! The one playing the flute.

Kung Lao: All right, everyone. Quiet down!

(Everybody is still talking)

Kung Lao: Shut up or decapitate everyone with my hat!

(Everybody shuts up.)

Kung Lao: Now, then, I have arranged a little gift for our prince, Liu Kang.

Liu Kang: Kungy! You shouldn't have!

Kung Lao: Happy Birthday, Liu Kang!

(The sheet is pulled off and a statue of him with a sword and shield is reveal. Liu Kang looks at it funny.)

Liu Kang: Its...great. I'm speechless, Kung.

Kung Lao: You should be. I was hoping it would be a wedding present.

Liu Kang: sigh Are you still upset because I didn't fall for Princess Sheeva?

Kung Lao: Yes, but I just want you happy and find the right girl!

Liu Kang: I will! She's out there, somewhere. I know it. I bet she's right under this boat!

Kung Lao: Now, lets not get all silly here.

Liu Kang: But its true! I know she's out there! I'll hit me! Like lightning!

(Lightning is heard and the wind starts to pick up.)

Sailor: Thunder-storm is coming! Let's go!

(Liu Kang and them start to move the ship. The rain starts and the wind picks up.)

Cage: Whoa! This is some storm! (gets blown away.) KITANA!

(The sailor is struggling with sheering wheel and falls over. Katina gets blown into the water. She swims back up to the surface.

Liu Kang takes over the wheel. Suddenly, they crash into a rock and everyone falls overboard.)

Kung Lao: Help! cough Help!

Liu Kung: I got ya.

Jax: Bark! Bark!

Liu Kung: Jax!

(Liu Kang swims back to ship, which is on fire. He climbs on and sees him on the high part.)

Liu Kang: Jax! Jump! I got ya!

(Jax jumps on to his arms and they both run. Then, Liu Kang's leg gets stuck on a hole. Jax is release into the water. Kitana watches in horror as he struggles to break free.)

Kung Lao: Liu Kang! Behind you!

Liu Kang: (turns to see gun power) Oh...

(The ship explodes and everyone gasped! Kitana swims around the area and finds him on a broken piece of wood. He falls in and she swims after him. She grabs him and swims him to the shore. She lies right beside him. Johnny Cage flies over.)

Kitana: ... Is he...dead?

Cage:(pick his foot up and listens) I can't make a heartbeat.

Kitana: (giddy) He's breathing! Oh he's so handsome.

Kitana: What would I pay to see you standing?

What would give to lay beside you?

What would I do you see you smiling?

(Jade and Mina are push on rocks by the waves and Jade sees her with Liu Kang. Johnny comes over as well.)

Where would we go?

Where would we live?

Can we stay out here in the sun?

Just you and me

You'll see that I'll be part of your landddddd.

(Liu Kang wakes up to see Kitana in her face veil and hair in a bun. She hears Jax and swims off.)

Kung Lao: Liu Kang! There you are! I was so worried about you!

Liu Kang: That voice. I was saved by a girl who had a wonderful voice...

Kung Lao: I think you ate a little too much seaweed. Come now.

(Jade, Mina, Johnny, and Kitana are hiding behind a rock.)

Jade: The sea queen must never know about this. If you don't tell her, I won't tell her. I'll stay in one piece.

I don't know how? I don't know why?

I know something starting this instant!

Just wait and see.

You know that I'll be part of you... WORLDDDDDDD!

(The waves crash in the background. However, Quan Chi and Shang Tsung are watching her.)

Shao Kahn: Oh my! This is precious! The child is in love with a prince! This is too easy! I bet mommy's going to like that.Queen Sindel's lovesick daughter would make a lovely addition to my collection of souls. Mwhahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
