Awake

Chapter 4: Are You Falling For Him?

Outworld

Tanya was at her home, contemplating her first meeting with Chris. She recalled finiding him unconscious in the Living Forest after pushing Kano and the Black Dragon away. She took him to her campsite and helped his recovery of his injuries. She first fell in love with him after her confrontation with Jade in the Wastelands. However, after Chris defeated Shao Kahn, she disappeared. Two years later, the Netherrealm War was won by Earthrealm, but because of Reiko's actions, Chris was put our of action. For how long, she may not know. Chris knew of Tanya's betrayal to Edenia, but her story added up. However, the love she received from him was something she never experienced before, and probably never will ever again now that he's gone missing. Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. She answered and sees Kano.

"What do you want, turncoat?"

"I heard Chris had gone missing since the war ended."

"What is it you think I know of his location?"

"I've seen you with him in your arms. Are you falling for him?"

"How dare you!"

Kano laughs, "So he did tap that ass. Good for him. Gotta admit, lad does have excellent taste in women, especially Jade. Can't say the same for his slut of a wife.'

"His family is not my concern. You wanted him dead, right?"

"He's just like Sonya, always up my ass. They call him when he does good.'

"Begone, Kano."

"(Laughing) Later, fire girl."

Kano leaves. Tanya laid down furious that Kano knew of affiliation with Chris, and knowing she may never see him, she teared up. She could also tell Jade feels the same way. Tanya realized that Chris could be anywhere, near or far, so she made up her mind and set off to find him. However long it takes, she'll find him, and give him one more night of passion before he is gone... permanently by her hand.
