Mk: escape to Outworld
At the bottom of the mountain where a small forest was vapor of smoke started to sizzle out of the small cave, rushing out like a tornado. As the winds dies down, two figures lay there on the ground.
Sub-zero immediate got up but doing so cause him to get a major headache. Once again he vomits on to the ground. As his dizzy spell started to pass he quickly looked few feet were Smoke is. Smoke was on the ground on his hands and knees. He was shaking uncontrollably. Sub-zero quickly headed toward him.
Why can't I move? Smoke thought. His body wouldn't respond
"Smoke, Are you all-"Sub-zero said be for he was cut off when something grabbed him by neck and choked the air out of him. Soon he was slammed into the nearest tree.
Smoke didn't notice it yet, as he still tried to figure out what was wrong with his body. He felt like all of his power wore going hey wire.
Calm down little one. The voice
You again?
Better calm yourself before you kill your friend. And I wouldn't think that you would want that to happen.
At first Smoke didn't know what the voice was talking about, but then he turn towards were sub-zero choking against the tree. His face was turning blue.
"S-Stop!" Smoke command the invisible hand and then it vanish. Smoke then ran towards him to see if he was o.k.
"Kuai Liang! Are you ok?"
"I be just*akk* fine." He coughs out "What was that?"
"Yea, Smoke what was that?"
They both look up to see where that voice came from. They saw horde of Lin kuei warrior and with them was the Grandmaster.
A Small army of Lin kuei warrior surrounded Smoke and Sub-zero. This was the first time the Grandmaster outside of his chambers. Meaning that this was more serious then they thought.
"It a shame that you two fine warrior would do this. Tundra, what would your brother said?"
He would say go screw yourself! We know what you're planning to do with the warrior!" sub-zero said enrage
Grandmaster lifted his eyebrows
"Oh so you knew. I was going to tell you all about are little project but then you have to spoil the surprised."
Sub-zero couldn't believe it that Grandmaster could sure thing to them, the Lin kuei that serve there life to him.
"How could you betray us like this? Turning us into cyborgs , giving us no free will."
"And this is why I wanted cyborg project! Warrior like you is weak minded. Emotions that get in way, if you have none of that you be a prefect warrior."
Grandmaster then turn toward the commander "remember capture Smoke." He whisper
"yes, master." The commander toward to his warriors
"Attack!"
Then the nearest warrior attack Smoke. Hitting him hard in the gut. It was so hard that he cough up blood. Never had he felt sure pain.
"Tackle him down!"
Three more warriors then started to tackle smoke down as he couldn't move a muscle.
"Smoke!" Sub-zero yelled seeing his friend is in trouble. As ran toward them a small group of Lin kuei warrior blocked his way. One them knee kick him in the face. Cause him to double over. Seeing the other was to about to attack Sub-zero quickly made an ice ball, freezing one of warrior. Them he ice slice toward the frozen warrior causing him to be unfreeze but also causing him to fall. Sub-zero saw his chance, /he quickly make a bed of ice spikes. So when the fallen warrior land he was impaled by the spikes.
"One down one to go."
Sub-zero looked at the other warrior. The warrior looks young. Sub-zero can tell this was his first mission. An inexperience warrior like him can't hope to defeat someone like Sub-zero. Much to Sub-zero dislike he have no choice but to put a end to this young warrior life, There was a few reason why. One he could be a threat later on, better to be safe then sorry. And two, Sub-zero considering this is saving the young warrior from a horrible fate. Even Sub-zero think that he rather die a human then an emotionless cyborg.
"Sorry."
Sub-zero said he ice slide toward the young warrior. It was so fast that the young warrior didn't saw it coming as Sub-zero lodged his hand into his stomach freezing his liver. Then he crushes it before he gave him a brutal headbutt breaking his skull. Insisting the young warrior dies. Sub-zero had to turn away from the body couldn't bare to look at it.
*hpm* I should have know a young warrior like him would be useless."
Sub-zero turn toward the Grandmaster
"O-well I guess I have to take care of you."
Then the Grandmaster's hand turn into panther paw. The next thing Sub-zero knew he was slashed by his former Grandmaster.
"Boy, do you know why I'm Grandmaster?"
Sub-zero just looked up didn't even brother to answer
"It because I'm the must powerful warrior here."
"heh, yeah but you got your ass kick by some out world guy." Sub-zero stated
The next thing he knew the Grandmaster turn. Himself into a huge panther. Sub-zero then brace himself.
"Shit."
Mean while
Smoke was now under chained, seeing his friend fighting while he did nothing made him useless.
Sub-zero I'm sorry I couldn't protect you.
Don't be.
Damn it! Not you again. Why won't you leave me alone? Smoke thought now enrage by the voice had appeared again.
*hpm* you know you were nicer when you were young. But seeing you trouble does remind of you.
What are you talking about?
I help you but you have to make a deal with me.
What kind of deal are you talking about?
Don't worry, it not like I want your soul or anything. All I want is you to trust me.
As Smoke began to decide what to do. He soon sees that Sub-zero won't last long, The Grandmaster was powerful foe. His power surpass all warrior from the Lin kuei defeating Sub-zero would as be easy as stomping legless bug.
Smoke saw that his friend was on his last legs. He wouldn't last long if this keep up.
Fine, I trust you
Good, now this might sting a bit.
What?
Soon agony pain came over Smoke's body. He could nothing but scream, one of the warrior who was holding Smoke down early Smashed Smoke face down into the ground so his screams was muffled.
"That should shut him up." Said one of the warrior
He didn't noticed a small Smoke cloud started together around them.
"hey where did all this fog come from?" the second said as the small fog in golfed them
Sub-zero was on barely able to stand as body was badly cut and bruised. He dare not move a inch as he didn't want to make the injury worse. He started at the Grandmaster who was just dusting himself off. Sub-zero was shocked that he didn't lay a scratch on him.
"You know what? I change mind about you being a Cyborg." The Grandmaster said while studying his hand then a sick grin formed on his face.
"I decide to bring back your body so broken that you be begging to be a cyborg."
"I rather die then to become a cyborg." Sub-zero spat out
"That could be arrange."
Then for a instant the Grandmaster vanish then reappear in front Sub-zero, he grab his face slam his back against a wall. Sub-zero struggled to get lose.
"Now die!"
Sub-zero closes his eye to much of his dislike as he consider to be coward, But at this point he didn't care. He didn't to die not like this, he came so far. Soon he felt blood slatted on his face. He thought the impact was so great that he couldn't feel anything. Then he opens his eye thinking he was about to meet his marker, but what he did saw shocked him. That blood that was on Sub-zero was not his own but the Grandmaster.
A bloody hand was sticking out chest that stab from his back.
"What?" The Grandmaster choked out. He turned to see who stabbed him and saw Smoke.
"How dare you?"
Smoke didn't say anything. He didn't even look up at him. He quickly took out his hand then slam him to the rocky mountain.
Sub-zero was surprise that Smoke was that strong. He was still shocked how take down five." Lin Kuei warrior" sub-zero looked over where he saw the fog cloud covering the area that Smoke was once at. As it stated to dispatch he saw bodies of the Lin kuei warrior who hailed him were tored to limb to limb.
That would explain where the blood came from on Smoke body.
"Smoke?" sub-zero said
Smoke didn't listen as he teleport where the Grandmaster where the Grandmaster is. Smoke then grab the Grandmaster by his neck, this time he got gleams of his eyes. They were blood red as if he were a demon. For the first time if his life he was afraid. If weren't for his mask Smoke would have definitely seen it, which there was no point because Smoke can definitely sense it. Smoke want to savior the moment before he rip the Grandmaster to piece.
Hey dumdass! I told not to kill him!
The voice screamed. It was so loud that Smoke winced in pain.
He deserved to die! He growled
"Yea,yea,yea. So does a bunch bad people. See that necklet he wearing."
Smoke looked at the Grandmaster's neck and saw a blue crystal that have a weird symbol on it.
Hurry up and grad it.
Smoke did what he was told and quickly grabs the crystal. Then threw him away like a toy.
Now get your cryomacer friend.
What?
The voice just ignored him then change Smoke into vapor. The vapor grab Sub-zero and they teleported away.
A few miles away from the Lin kuei, Sub-zero and Smoke rest, trying together there thought of what just happen.
"Smoke, how in the hell were you able to defeat the Grandmaster?"
Smoke didn't answer; he was still amazed that he was capable of doing that. He was also afraid that he couldn't remember half the things he did. All he remembers was agonies pain, and then the next thing he knew was he choking the life of the Grandmaster. If he could do that to the Grandmaster, he don't want image what could do to Sub-zero.
"Don't worries I make sure you won't hurt him". The voice said, "You trust me don't you?"
"Yes." Smoke said out loud that he forgot that Sub-zero was next to him who had noticed
"Who are you taking to?"
Can I tell him? Smoke asked the voice
I don't care just, hurry up. Your former Grandmaster will probably going to send another group to try to captured you again.
Smoke just sighs. The Grandmaster was always suburb of losing.
"I'm waiting." Sub-zero said impliedly Smoke almost forgot about him.
"I-I don't know what to say." Smoke wasn't sure if he should tell Sub-zero, He could think he have gone crazy.
"Well… lately I have been hearing a voice in my mind."
"You have been hearing a voice? When did this started?" sub-zero asked
"After the whole Bi-Han memory innocent." Smoke said. See his friend become sad that he blamed himself for getting Smoke into this missed
"Hey ,It not your fault."
"Sure feel like it."
Sure feel like it.
Sorry to interrupt your lame soap opera to bring you to tell you to. HURRY UP!
"shh, can't you be ant louder?"
Yes. What to see me try?
No
Good, Do you still have the necklet?
Smoke reached into his packet and took out the blue crystal.
"What that?" Sub-zero asked
"I don't know."
That crystal you have is your ticket out here." The voice said
Give to your ice friend. His powers will active it.
"What did that little voice say?" Sub-zero asked as he still looks a crystal
"It said that you need to use your ice power to active or something."
Smoke had him the crystal that was now glowing in Sub-zero hand.
"Are you sure that we should trust that little voice of yours?"
"Well, it is the only thing we got. We got nothing else to lose, were dead to Lin Kuei anyway."
Sub-zero just shrugged. Then he began to concentrate, force his energy on the crystal. soon a blue beam shout out of it to create a portal
In you go now. The voice said as they enter the portal
