Whew, I'm getting a lot of views from the previous chapter! Now, let's see what are our Disciples doing. Plus, I am so emotional after the recent episode of Game of Thrones and I finally played MK11. I gotta say Kotal Kahn is the juiciest thing I'll ever have out of everything in the game. Just makes me want to run my hands over those muscles...

Along with the lemon I made here that gave me shivers all the time!

Okay, enough about me and my womanly needs. Let's get on with the story! Also, if any of you have a problem with why I put multiple perspectives instead of Nash, I'm trying to develop each character further and kinda got inspired by the text in A Song of Ice and Fire.

Chapter 38

"Go to her, Azril!" Bryan yelled above the chaos of screaming spectators. "I've dealt with Black Dragons before!"

Azril did not hesitate, rushing off to find Frost.

He found her in time, in a fuming state to which he assumed was her match being interrupted by the Black Dragons. She was punching the floor of the cage until a hole was form with her iced fists. Azril simply approached her while his sneaker shoes were careful not to step on stalagmites of ice coming out from the ground.

"Mister, if you want your life," Frost seethed, her hands starting to glow with her cry abilities. "Get the fuck out of here!"

"Until you come back to the Lin Kuei," Azril told her. Honestly, he doesn't care that his disguised made him looked like a clown. Frost paused before staring at the disguised man. Then her expression contorted to rage as she tried to punch him with hot tears coming out of her eye.

As usual, Azril blocked with his hands before locking both of her arms behind her back, putting her in a kneeling position.

"W-why are you here?" she demanded. She was struggling but Azril's grip was vice-like. "I was so close to earning my title and you had to ruin anything! Don't you know what it's like to prove yourself so that you don't end up on the streets?!"

Azril stared at her through those steely eyes that never blinked as he listened.

"You never had any of these problems," Frost continued. "You always have a place and a family!"

"Not exactly," he shook his head. Frost glared at him with those red-teared eyes. "My family fell apart ten years ago and I grew up becoming the parent rather than my mother. My father's death and my two older siblings couldn't stand her so I became her caretaker."

Frost's tensed body suddenly slacked, she wanted to know more about this outsider who won favours of everyone in the Lin Kuei. He told her about his past and the turning point of his mother. When Frost listened, she was so stunned.

"Oh my god…."

"Heh, at least there are some perks," said Azril. "So, will you please come back to the temple? They cared about you a lot and said you were the best. You just need to be patient."

Frost sighed and nodded. Azril escorted her back and hoped Bryan can handle the Black Dragons with his technology. That boy's sure is full of surprises despite the fact he screamed a lot and ran from most fights.

Arriving at the Lin Kuei, Azril's little dragon Visenya was perched on a statue before screeching for Sub Zero to come out. He was surprised to find Frost walking next to Azril without any restraints on her. In fact, not a single anger from her but just sadness.

"I take it everything went smoothly?" Sub Zero enquired.

Azril nodded before his wyvern perched on his shoulder and growled at Frost, a warning. But she couldn't care less as she never knew Azril had a dysfunctional family to the point he repressed emotions in order to work harder than ever. She had been annoyed at him and hated him for stealing her place.

But now she is confused.

She can't walk too close to Azril because his wyvern kept glaring at her. Just as they stopped near her room, he signalled his wyvern to fly off somewhere. He turned his head to meet her gaze.

"Sorry to crash your cage match," he admitted. "But he was worried about you and so was I."

Frost said nothing. Just before Azril could return to his room, she pulled him close and surprised him with a kiss on his lips.

Azril blinked and turned away quickly.

Frost may not see a change in his expression but the tip of his ears became red. She smiled, wondering if she could get more emotions and expressions out of him.

She was starting to warm up to him.

Little did she know that someone was watching her. It was the Grandmaster himself who tried to hide a chuckle behind his mask. He could tell that Azril is confused but if he could help Frost control her anger and teach her humility…

She could teach him how to open up once more.

…

Nash's P.O.V

It's bad enough that Mileena and Tanya kidnapped me to be their sex slave. But it's worst when I feel sore everything I tried to make a run or even sit for a second.

I decided to venture down to where I heard where Shang Tsung made all of his experiments. Jade will rip me apart if she ever saw me again. I bet either Tanya or Mileena had indirectly told her. On top of that, I haven't seen my friends after this.

I wonder if they're okay?

Descending the flight of stairs, I hear almost thousands of voices. It sounded like Ermac. Being curious, I went the other direction to see what's going on. Is it true that Kristina likes him just as much as that damn cowboy?

I hid myself behind some pillars to watch the scene before me: Kristina was having a conversation with Ermac, sitting crosslegged side by side. Unlike her usual tough attitude, she was giggling along with gesturing with her hands.

It's so weird!

I hoped Bryan isn't here to film this. She would've destroyed him along with all of the witnesses. But I stayed in my spot, hoping Ermac wouldn't use one of his mind powers to find me.

"Sorry about earlier," Kristina chuckled nervously, trying not fidget a lot. But Ermac watched her with his glowing green eyes either amused or something. He gently touched her hand with his bandaged one.

"It's not your fault," he assured her. I couldn't believed that the thing with thousands of souls is getting along with her. "We must admit that beer or imitation Earthrealm drinks were not to our liking. Wine is still our preference."

"I drink wine too," said Kristina, plopping down on her back with her arms stretched like a relaxed cat. "Though only the pussies drink from those little glass. How's someone suppose to have a good time with only a sip?"

"It's common courtesy. Most women do as a sign of respect."

Kristina snorted and punched his shoulder gently. "Most girls are idiots. Save it for some I'm close to since there are some things I wouldn't know."

I wanted to spit into my eyes but I just saw a thin smile forming on Ermac's lips. With his pale skin, I wonder if he ever exposed himself to the Sun or at least have cream to make it smooth. What was shocking was that Ermac's hand had intertwined with hers.

"You are an interesting one, Kristina," Ermac commented. Kristina stared at him while I covered my mouth in case I am going to cough. "We've met a lot of Earthrealm women when Shao Kahn ordered us to battle but none are quite like you."

"Oh yeah?" Kristina arched a brow but I swear, she's blushing.

"You have a softer side," Ermac explained, his glowing eyes blinked. "With us, Erron and we've seen you around when we had that night in the cave. You and that woman are friends?"

"Well, I'm her brother's friend but she's alright. Can be in Wonderland for all I know or in her garden of animals. And Erron can be cocky but he's good. Just a poor lonesome cowboy who needs friends."

Just when I was about to escape, something grabbed me despite being totally hidden from view or Ermac's mind range. I was hung upside down with both him and Kristina staring at me.

"What the hell are you doing here, Nash?" Kristina demanded. The construct of souls glared at me but did not squeeze me too tight thankfully.

"Getting out of here," I told her. "Come on, you gotta believe me! I was kidnapped and they used me against my will!"

Both Kristina and Ermac exchanged looks before dropping me with a thud. Kristina lifted me from the shirt, wanting the answers now. And Ermac crossed his arms, looking at me as well. So I told them about what happened with Mileena and Tanya.

"YOU DID WHAT?!" Kristina exclaimed. "YOU'RE GONNA GET YOURSELF KILLED AND WE'LL BE DEAD TOO! DO REALISED THAT NO WOMAN IS GOING TO TRUST YOU NOW?!"

I'm still shaken up but I feel so ashamed. I let her nag me on until I could here my teeth rattling. But I still wanted to know what's Kristina doing here. But Ermac interrupted.

"Shao Kahn will not be pleased to know this," he stated. "We know of your trifling affairs yet it confuses us. Why would lead a string when you already have one woman who trusted you at first?"

I don't know how to answer him. How can I say I want to conquer and sample all of the hot women in the game and we're all from the real world while these guys are just characters? And Kristina, what the hell is she doing siding with Ermac? You know Outworld are the bad guys, right?

"I don't know," I sighed. "Fucked up, okay? And Jade will never speak to me again if I keep doing this."

"Not easy to do," Kristina scoffed. "When your fantasy here becomes a nightmare. I suggest you get your shit together and clean up the mess you made. Now, can you leave us alone?"

Say no more as I went out, looking back to see Kristina placing an arm around Ermac.

…

Shao Kahn's palace is like a labyrinth with different rooms and various tunnels leading to different parts of the underground passage. It would take me weeks to see the sun again. But then I heard a few people laughing.

I'm all battered, bruised and no weapons in sight. I should find my hammer before returning to Bo Rai Cho and tell Riana the whole story. Only if she would listen since the both of us are not on good terms at the moment. It hurts, to the point I really believed that I'm going to lose my rod anytime now.

If I can't find my hammer, I guessed I'm going to find a replacement.

When I climbed up the stairs, I was greeted by a pretty garden on my left. I never knew Shao Kahn would want a garden. But I halted in my tracks when I saw a familiar face.

"Riana?"

Riana was bonding with that damn lizard warrior over those weird creatures I've seen the guards and soldiers use. Some looked prehistoric while some looked like they just got kicked out of Hell. Riana and Reptile stared at me with their respective pets on them.

I never knew Reptile had a pet green snake. Is that considered slavery since they're both reptiles?

"What are you doing here?" I asked, eyeing Reptile and his deadly claws ready to slash me.

"I should ask you the same thing considering this is the last place you want to go unless it's about Mileena," my sister retorted. Kurt on her shoulder stared at my carefully.

"Forget about what happened to me," I groaned. "I'll explain later what happened but you disappeared after your match and missed out Jade vs Tanya."

Riana exchanged glances with Reptile. The lizard warrior sniffed me and said: "Because both of your presence will distract her. Isn't she going to avenge her fallen family? Both of you, especially Nash and his harem."

"Hey, I'm trying not to start a war, okay?!" I yelled at him.

"Don't you dare yell at him!"

"I'm tired, Riana! Tired of being used even when I told them to stop and they will use me until I was knocked out. Do you know how hard it is to avoid trouble yet it comes to you?"

Riana approached me, behind her glasses her eyes looked deadly despite her being short. She took my hand in her gloved hand, I felt a bit of the sharp claw filled with venom. A warning that if I talk further, she will inject me.

"All my life, I have been," Riana told me. I noticed Reptile holding her by the waist. "You're the lucky one getting everything without putting effort while I had to work my ass off because no one else would help me."

Everything was silent before Riana shoved me back. Clearly, I've struck a nerve. Reptile emitted a low growl as a warning before I back off. Just as I was about to exit, a man in blue war paint with his Aztec get up approached us. From the size of his frame and his weapon, I could be squashed like a grape.

"And who are you?" he asked, his voice was like it could shake the Earth. Shit, I'm going to be like Bryan and soiled my pants. I was surprised that my sister didn't flinch. But the Aztec warrior was waiting for an answer while I am shaking inside!

"I'm Nash," my voice came out meekly. "I-I'm Riana's brother."

His eyes were white, ironic because it held so much emotions compared to people I know who have coloured eyes but are lifeless due to the life they have experienced.

"So, you were the one who copulated with Jade before leading a string of women to form your harem?" he inquired, arms folding across his chest. I wanted to run but Reptile could swiftly catch me or worst.

Being trapped, I told him while my sister and Reptile watched. The Aztec warrior murmured something I couldn't decipher. But my sister placed a hand on my shoulder.

"I think you should leave," she told me. Her voice held no anger or hurt like before. "I'll see you back at Bo Rai Cho's. If I'm not back, just grab something to eat first."

"And what are you going to do?"

Riana looked back at the creatures behind her. "Settle them down first and then come back. I might even stop by to find new poison and venom for myself."

Deciding not to press further, I left but saw a glimpse of the Aztec warrior talking to my sister and she seemed pleased. Was he the guy who let her work here when there's people that will kill us?

I passed Ferra and Torr who seemed happy in their new domain. Well, that settles it with both of the symbiotes.

Still aching, I walked back to where we lived without being seen by Jade or any women in case they'll set an angry mob on me. I'm gonna double my training tonight if I want to prove to the ladies and my friends better.

As I reached Bo Rai Cho's place, I was blocked by an angry Takeda, disappointed Kung Jin and a guilty Bryan.

…

3rd P.O.V

Riana finally finished her work at the menagerie on the first day before making her way home. Her employer K'oatal is very kind and reasonable on the first day. She's still going to be prepared for the worst in case isolation or verbal abuse is involved.

She was really fascinated by the creatures, to the point she wished she would've her phone to snap some pictures and do a little comparison with the animals in her world. She hoped she could help them and make a difference. Other than that, she had been collecting samples of some form of poison or venom during her work.

She might test it out on tormentors if they harmed her.

Just then, a small groan was heard and she saw Erron stumbling towards her. She helped him leaned against the wall while her pet sneezed from sniffing the hungover cowboy. Riana wondered how Kristina dealt with him in a drunken state.

"Where's Princess?" Erron asked with a small slur in his voice. Riana looked away trying to hide a giggle. Kristina will surely kill him if he called her princess again. She gripped his shoulders to steady him.

"She's somewhere," Riana smiled. "Why don't you get some rest and someone will get you some water."

"She's quite a woman," Erron sighed, Riana knew he was smiling despite the mask. "Can hold her liquor like no other and is a fun type. Tough and fun, my kind of gal~ And the trash bag full of ghost…"

Just as Riana was about to reply, Kristina has entered with a smile on her face. Not the smirk when she won something. Rather, it was like she was asked out by someone. Riana had some ideas on who it was.

"Look who's back," Riana grinned. "I take it you had a walk to shake off your hangover?"

"Nah, I met Ermac," said Kristina, still smiling. "Glad he was alright after the bar episode. He drinks wine but don't think he's strong enough for booze. He's got a slender frame. I don't have to worry about Erron though."

Riana was beginning to wonder if Bryan's theory is true: Kristina is the real life Christine with a pretty boy and a phantom after her.

Still, Ermac served Shao Kahn with Mileena so she wondered if the construct of souls would one day decided to have free will and go against his master's wishes. She may not know him well but Kristina seemed happy with him along with Erron Black.

She hoped this friendship wouldn't screw Kristina in the back since Nash had told her about her break up with her ex. If Ermac decided to side with Kristina, maybe there's a chance they might help Nash into defeating Shao Kahn and everyone can go home.

But it all depends on how Kristina handled the situation.

She was blocked from exiting the menagerie by K'oatal. She may have just met him but she could sensed a good vibe off of him. She smiled at him and spoke in a quiet tone:

"Is there anything else that needs to be done?"

"Nothing, my dear," he assured her with a warm smile. "Take care of yourself and I will see you tomorrow. You've done well for your first job."

Riana didn't know if she wanted to smile or cry. Most jobs including those chores at her relatives' house during the break always criticised and doubled her work on the first day without explaining to her certain methods or else she'll screw up.

Maybe seeing her screwing up has always been their kink.

She kindly thanked the Aztec warrior before scooping up Kurt, who was playing with Reptile's green whip snake. The snake was so sweet, slithering around her hand before passing her to Reptile.

"So where will you go?" she asked her beloved Zaterran companion. Reptile was quiet, still dealing with the blow from both the tyrant and sorcerer. She took his hands in hers to comfort him.

"I have a den in the Kuatan Jungle," he told her. "I will just hunt, train and see if what they say is true. I truly believed that there might be survivors of my kind."

Riana flexed the fingers of her gloves to check on the venoms. She wondered if he would like to- No, but it's worth a shot!

"Can I follow you into the jungle? I would like to visit your home sometimes," Riana asked. Kurt also had a pleading look in his eyes, to which it was hard to say no to. Reptile smiled and nodded.

Little did he know, the people watching them had mixed expressions of shock, warmth and had the look of horror.

…

Kuatan Jungle is eerie when the sun sets as not a source of light will be seen unless it's from the pale rising moon or the dance of the fireflies. Riana followed Reptile from behind with Kurt on her shoulders. She doesn't mind the fact that her long skirt was going to be tattered and dirty by the time they reached Reptile's humble abode.

Kurt had decided to scatter after climbing down from his owner's shoulder. Riana was worried he might get lost but Reptile assured her he will be fine. He can sensed the little lizard with his excellent sense of smell.

Inside the den, there were lit candles, some mats used for either training or exercise and there's a hidden waterfall inside that led to a spring. Riana assumed it was to cool off or his version of a shower. It's warm for a cave to which Riana took off her shoes and gloves, laying them on the nearest rock.

"It feels cozy," Riana commented, taking a seat on the cool floor. Reptile had never invited anyone over to his home. But this human, she was an exception. Something in the way she moved, attracted him like no other. How she had been kind and saw him without disgust or hate.

He approached her and carefully pinned her below him without any force. Riana reached up a hand to caress his face and then the chin. She giggled when he purred like a cat under her touch. The young woman continued her little session before she moved her lips close to his maw.

Both of them had sealed themselves once more with a kiss, Reptile cradled her head while the young women captured his face in her hands. Their kiss soon turned passionate with them duelling each other's tongues, Riana's hands trailing down his back as her legs locked around his torso.

"Syzoth…" Riana breathed from the kiss.

"My sweet Riana," he purred softly, gently nuzzling her. Reptile's scales stimulated her with their roughness on her pale skin. He never felt this way with any human. He had longed for his race since he was the last one left. But now, he wanted nothing more than this woman who captured his attention and opened his heart to new possibilities.

Pressing their foreheads together, the two of them gazed into each other. Reptile then pulled off Riana's glasses to place them onto the rock with his long tongue.

"I can't see far," she told him.

"Stay close to me."

Riana's face was already heating up. She wanted nothing more than to be with him. She gently traced the muscles of his chest before she peppered them with kisses. She then looked down to see a small bulge poking out of his pants. Reptile growled, making Riana feel shivers.

"Do you want this, my dear?"

"Only if it's with you…"

"I wouldn't change anything out of this."

While they locked themselves again in their erotic kiss, Reptile's sharp claws removed Riana's tattered skirt and the whole of her top which left her in only her soaked panties. The Zaterran's blood was hot, his instincts was ready to take this woman and mark her as his own. Riana on the other hand had removed his pants, gear and even the wrapping that covered his head to reveal the scaly green head much similar to a green gecko.

Reptile now got a good glimpse of the woman naked before him. But he sensed Riana was uncomfortable about something. He tilted her chin to make her look at him. "It's your scars, isn't it?"

Riana nodded, turned around to show him. All the scars made over a decade from whips, chains, knives and how it was cut open to be seasoned with peppers and lemon juice in order to make her behave in front of the family before they lock her up in the darkest room or shed.

"It's hideous, right?" Riana asked quietly, bracing herself to know he will be repulsed and kick her out. But Reptile traced each scar, every crevice and dents with those deadly claws. How gentle they were and his scales made her back feel tingly.

"I don't see anything," he admitted, licking her neck. "I see a survivor who has endured the worst. You never stopped moving on despite being on breaking points. These scars may be reminders but they made you who you are."

"And…what's that?" Riana turned her head to look at him, small tears forming. Reptile kissed away the tears, letting out rumbles of sounds. He decided to show her by letting her got down on all fours.

Riana gasped, knowing where this was going. She was embarrassed that her panties was still on and Reptile was staring at her rear before his muzzle leaned close to the cloth that covered her snatch. Riana then shuddered a bit when the Zaterran pulled down her panties in a teasing motion before he inhaled her scent.

"S-Syzoth…" Riana whimpered as a long tongue had traced across the pink folds. Reptile grabbed both of her rear ends before he plunged deeper into her, making Riana moaned. It echoed the den and it was just them in the candle lit together. She steadied herself on the floor as her lover began to eat her out as if she were a treat.

Before she could begged him for more, his tongue slithered out to turn the woman over to capture her again in a kiss. Riana sighed with him while her hand had made its way down to his erected member, pumping the shaft in slow motion.

Reptile growled lustfully, his eyes curious to know what Riana wanted to do. Riana then lowered her head to his cock and licked the tip, making the lizard warrior shuddered in delight. Oh, this human was making him more primal than in his current state.

Riana then stared up at him as she took in his serpent into her mouth, bobbing her head up and down. She wanted to smile when Reptile uttered her name, letting her be in control. Riana even applied her teeth to give him a bit of pain to the pleasure.

"Ah..Riana…" Reptile grunted.

Riana knew he was at his peak before jets of liquid came and she swallowed it, gagging a bit from the taste. Holding both of his hands, Riana wanted to try this position for the both of them. Gently, she descended onto his member, grinding her hips with him.

"Syzoth…."Riana gasped, as they move to their bodies rhythm. "Am I hurting you?"

"No dear," he hissed, grabbing her waist while his tongue was painting her large DD breasts with his drool. "Come closer~"

Riana held onto him for dear life as they went longer, sometimes him giving her bite marks on both breasts and neck while the woman scratched his back with her hands, legs still around him. There was a point where Reptile wanted her to lay on her side so that her leg could be over his shoulder and he would kneed those breasts that seemed to be the thing he's obsessed with at the moment. The final would be a traditional one to him with her under and he pounded hard into her like two horses mating.

"Riana," he whispered. "Come for me, my sweet Riana~"

Riana screamed when she hit her climax, sending the both of them to embrace each other as Reptile came inside of her with his seeds. Both of them laid together onto the floor, in each other's arms.

"I've never experienced this before," Riana admitted, snuggling into his chest. Reptile chuckled, kissing her on the cheek.

"Likewise," he purred. "You're quite a woman. Come, let's rest for a bit. We can continue again after our nap."

Riana blinked. "I have to get back before dawn. Who knows what I've missed out."

Reptile knew she was right. But right now, he's content and happy to be with her at this moment. She may not be a Saurian or from his realm but she does have a spirit like one. Just as Reptile closed his eyes, he heard a murmur from his beloved:

"Love you, Sy…"

I don't know about you but I was shaking when writing this. Also, it's best you read this chapter with the song La Javanaise. Really good and I'm still not over Battle of Winterfell!

Damn, I wonder what Sub Zero is going to think of Azril now after what Frost did to him. Visenya's probably going to blast Frost if Azril gave the order.

Poor Nash. Gotta make up to undo all of the mess somehow and trouble's ahead with Takeda, Jin and Bryan. I wonder what's going on?

Also, Kristina surely is into being Christine, huh? All I could say is *inhales a song* Masquerade, paper faces on parade! Masquerade, hide your face so the world won't find you~

And Riana...Oh Riana, if only you wore something red and have red shoes. Reptile can wear his Kraken skin to look the part. Hopefully, there will be a tower where Reptile in MKX has Kraken skin and it has to do with water.

Please review to know what's going to happen next!
