Sorry this took forever... I've been playing the new game like there's no friggin tomorrow... yeaaaaaaaaa... Anyways, here's a new chappie


Fire escaped my mouth as every fiber of my being wants to destroy this son of a bitch… I watch as he runs and soon falls to the floor. I look down at Saia, who only stared at me… I knew all too well what she was thinking…. I only turned my head, feeling regret for the first time in many many years…

I don't hear anything from Saia, which brings me to believe she is fearful of me. How can I blame her…? She's never seen my true face… The creature that I am, in all its unholy glory.

I let my fears grow the longer I hear nothing from her… But soon, slender fingers intertwine themselves into mine. I felt her warm body pressed against my back. For a second, I was in pure shock… Why would she accept me like this…? I knew I was a monster; most of my foes would look at me in horror... Some would attempt escape… But not her….

I felt her body moving till she was in front of me still I refused to stare at her… Fear has me to the point that I cannot even think to look at her... It wasn't until I felt her hand touch my cold skull, that I finally turned my head to face her. When I met her eyes… I saw the love that has always been there. It hadn't changed…

"You… You don't fear me?" I look at her.

"Why would I?" She whispers, giving me a small smirk. "I told you I'd love you no matter what."

Before she could finish her statement I could see a shadow forming behind her. I quickly pull her aside only to be tackled by the shadow. My body was thrown to the ground on top of Saia. Soon the shadow became more defined and I was staring into the cold dead eyes of a black clad ninja.

"Scorpion." He seems to smile. "Long time no see huh?"

"Not long enough." I sit up. "Saia, leave with Rain and Reptile…" I stand to my feet. "I'd rather you not witness the hell I will unleash on him."

"Ha, she's going nowhere." I hear an all too familiar voice.

"Quan Chi." I hiss seeing him emerge from the darkness.

"Indeed." He smiles. "It's good to see you as well… But let's skip the pleasantries. And get right into business." He smirks.

I feel myself burning with rage… "Fine, what 'business' would you like to discuss?"

"Well as you can see, I already have some of the best warriors on my side, Noob Saibot, and Smoke being the only a taste of them. I don't wish to stay in the Nether Realm any longer. I want more."

"And me joining you will do what exactly?"

"You are the demon of the Nether Realm… You strike fear into all who face you… You are the perfect creation…. I should know… After all, I created you." His smile gets wider. "I have spoken to Lord Shinnok, and if you help us, he is willing to make you the god of the nether realm… Think of it… This could all be yours, to rule as you see fit."

"Sounds tempting…"

"Indeed, that, and you will be an Elder God… You can never be destroyed, the realm is at your beckon call, and you will no longer serve others."

"It seems like I'd be serving you."

"Ha, of course, but I will only ask that those souls I gather, be in your care."

"Hmmm, so I'd be an Elder God, yet I'd take orders from you?" I smirk. "Sounds like I'd be in the same position I'm in now."

"Well, not really, because if you don't agree to do this, then I will kill the mortal girl." He came closer to me. "Ha-ha, before I kill you."

"No, no…" I hear Noob, come closer. "You promised she would be mine."

"Oh yeah, I did say that didn't I?" Quan Chi chuckled. "You wanted her with her memories of Scorpion."

"Okay, you are just sick Noob." I growl, balling my fists. "And you Quan Chi…. You can just fucking rot."

"Not the answer I was looking for." He scolded. "But one I had hoped for none the less."

Before I could react to anything before I could even form a thought. I could see Saia vanishing into a black cloud. When I turned around, she was being thrown into a wall. When I tried to come to her aid, I was stopped by Quan Chi, who had appeared from a portal.

"It's sad…" He smiles. "You were the perfect creation."

"Reptile!"

Right then the green grabbed Quan Chi and threw him to the floor. When I started running towards Saia, who was still being thrown around by Noob, I was stopped by the gray ninja.

"What the hell are you going to do?" I look at him.

"Well, I had planned on doing this…" He evaporated into a cloud of smoke. "Now it's time for me to have some fun."

I opened my mouth spraying fire all over the place. But it was no good…

"Pathetic demon." I hear Rain behind me. "Smoke and Fire go hand and hand… Get the girl, I'll deal with him." His eyes soon go glow white as a cloud surrounded Smoke. Within the cloud lightning and thunder began to flash… and instead of rain coming from the cloud, blood slowly trickled from it.

"I'm going to enjoy making you my pet." I hear Noob shout as he threw Saia once more.

"GET OVER HERE!"

I grab Saia with my chains, and pull her closer to me. She looks bad, but she's still breathing.

"Well, well Scorpion… Here we are having the battle you've always wanted."

"Not really…" I lay Saia on the ground. "I had hoped to kill Sub-Zero, The man who killed my clan."

"Well… Unfortunately he's long gone… But I'm the next best thing."

"BROTHER!"

Noob turns to face the blue ninja, giving me a chance to look over Saia. She's a tough girl, that's why I love her.

"So you are the demon my brother has become…"

"Hmmm, we are blood… But we are not brothers."

"What do you mean?"

"Well if we were brothers, I wouldn't be able to kill you so easily."

I looked up to see the shadow behind Sub-Zero, soon his neck was ripped to one side, and swiftly to the other… Damn… I look back to see how everyone else is doing…. I see Reptile being thrown along with Rain, by Quan Chi, and from the looks of it, they weren't going to get up any time soon…. Damn…

"So Scorpion… Are you still fixed on the whole 'no' thing?" He and Noob stood in front of me. "Cause if so, then I must warn you, what will happen to you, will not be pleasant…"

I look at Quan Chi, whose eyes began to glow green… SHIT! I look at Saia, whose eyes are glowing the same color… NO! SHIT NO!

"How about death from the woman you love so much?" Quan Chi laughs, forcing her to stand. "Here" He throws her a knife. "Now I want you to kill him… He is worthless."

I can see her struggling to take control of her body, but she couldn't control herself… "Scorpion!" She screams. "KILL ME BEFORE I KILL YOU!"
