Mortal Kombat: Deception Mayhem!

Chapter 16:

Mileena lead Bo' Rai Cho and his army through the thick forest on the way to Onaga's palace where the final battle was to take place.

"Princess," said Bo, "Are you positive that we are ready to attack Onaga's castle?"

"Of course!" said Mileena, "I know for a fact that their general is dead. Without him, the army will be powerless! Then, we can win the war, and we'll celebrate by building me a huge castle in Edenia, and maybe one in Outworld as well, and I will live in it and everyone will worship meeeee!"

Li Mei and Bo' Rai Cho gave each other a weird look.

"Um," said Mileena, "Will you excuse me for a minute? I have to go the woods to, er, you know..."

"Oh," said Bo, "Well, here are some leaves!"

"Ew," said Mileena, "I just have to pee!"

Mileena ran into the trees, looking for a place to urinate. Meanwhile, Baraka, who was hiding in a tree, carefully watched her every move.

"Ah," he said, "There's that little tramp now!"

Baraka then leapt from the tree and landed in front of Mileena.

"EEK!" screamed Mileena, "Baraka! H-H-How's it going? I-I missed you so much! No hard feelings?"

Baraka pointed his elbow blade at Mileena's face.

"Shut up, you stupid bitch," said Baraka, "I know you tired to kill me. Unfortunately, you only killed my double!"

"You have a double?" asked Mileena.

"Actually," said Baraka, "He's just some guy who looks like me and was wearing my clothes...But that's not the point! Tell me what happened to my army!"

"Um," said Mileena, "They're hiding..."

"LIAR!"

"Okay! Okay!" said Mileena, "They're all dead. But don't you see? The heroes are winning this war! They are far more powerful than we thought. And plus, I finally get to be princess! Don't you know how that feels?"

"Um, I'm a guy..."

"I know...I mean, the power, the glory, the people worshipping you. You don't know what that's like!"

"Actually," said Baraka, "When I was a kid, I had this treehouse in my backyard. Me and my brothers used to play 'fort' in it all the time. We would wage war against the neighbourhood kids for control of the treehouse and bomb them with water balloons. Then we started bombing them with rocks, bottle rockets, and glass shards, but that's not the point. The point is that whenever I was up in that tree house, I felt like I was king of the world. But I was consumed with power. I got greedy and paranoid and eventually killed my 3 brothers shortly after I hit puberty and sprouted my first ellbow blades. I had to find a place to hide the bodies and lie to my parents, and then I had to kill my neighbour because he saw me...Um, but anyways, what I'm trying to say is: Power can make you do crazy things!"

"So," said Mileena, "You understand?"

"Of course I do," replied Baraka, "But that still doesn't give you a right to fucking kill me!"

Baraka then raised his elbow blade in the air. Mileena screamed for her life and tried to run, but Baraka succeeded in slicing Mileena in half at the waist. Baraka watched with contempt as the bloody top half of Mileena began to crawl across the floor. Without saying a word, she turned to face Baraka and stretched out her arm towards him. Baraka held out his hand as well, but instead of taking her hand, Baraka simply stabbed her some more.

"Stupid bitch," he muttered.

Just then, he heard a noise. Bo' Rai Cho and friends had heard Mileena scream and were looking for her. Baraka hid behind a nearby bush.

"Princess?" said Bo, "Oh my God! Princess Kitana!"

Bo ran up to Mileena's mutilated body and knelt beside it, crying.

"What have they done to you?" screamed the fat drunkard, "Oh, what have they done?"

"Sir," said Li Mei, "Now what are we gonna do?"

"We must continue the invasion," replied Bo, wiping his eyes, "We must avenge our princess and KILL every Tarakatan!"

The army cheered and began to head towards the palace. Baraka gulped.

"We're screwed," he muttered.

Baraka then ran from the bush and headed towards the palace as well.


Onaga sat in his office working very hard on the computer.

"Damn Wikipedia," muttered the Dragon King, "My first appearence was not MK4! I can't believe I always have to edit this shit!"

"SIR! SIR!" shouted Baraka, who came running into the room.

"Baraka!" said Onaga, "How dare you show your face here again after..."

"My lord," began Baraka, "I know you're mad, but there's no time for chit-chat right now. Bo' Rai Cho and his gang are on their way right this minute! And they are pissed!"

"You killed Mileena didn't you? While she was still in disguise?"

Baraka nodded urgently.

"Aw fuck me," Baraka sighed and rubbed his head, "Where are they?"

"Like, less than a mile away," replied Baraka.

"Then, we must gather up whatever troops we have left. Call all the guards, soldiers, whatever! We have to win this!"

"Yessir!" Baraka left.

"If it's a war they want, it's a war they'll get," said Onaga, "Time for the final showdown!"
