Interlude - Timing

Jade Chapter 2

Jade smiled to her best friend while gathering a few articles of clothing. Kitana smiled back before asking, "Why are you smiling?" The green-clad female warrior just giggled before pointing out, "Liu Kang has been by your side ever since he got here. I think I'm jealous."

Kitana sighed briefly before near-scolding Jade, "How many times have I told you that you'll find a suitable man for you soon? You just need to be patient."

Jade returned Kitana's sigh with one of her own before pointing out, "It's not like my husband is going to randomly just walk in the door any day now." There was a brief pause before Jade added in, "If he does though, I hope he's naked so at least I can get a preview of the show." Kitana waved Jade off saying, "I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that. Now hurry up and get ready for dinner!"

Jax Chapter 5

Jax stared between the warriors as they formed an awkward semi-circle around Johnny. Sub-Zero just sort of stood there, looking almost unfazed by the events going on around him. Then, out of the blue Sub-Zero looked to Jax, "This is probably not the best time, but you now have that sun-roof you were inquiring about."

Sub-Zero Chapter 1

Sub-Zero stood next to Jax as they eyed their new, albeit temporary, rest stop. Jax then asked Sub-Zero, "You think they got a room with a view?"

Sonya Chapter 3

Sonya poked her tummy a few times before sighing. Never should have let Kitana and Jade talk her into bathing with them. Feelings of inadequacy were kicking in, meaning comfort food would soon be in order. Sonya then moved to open her door, and as soon as she did a certain Johnny Cage was there to greet her. She was about to huff in frustration before realizing that Johnny was giving her body the once over. Multiple times.

He'd then give Sonya a cheeky grin, "Hey babe, you ready for our date?" She narrowed her eyes at him before pointing out, "I didn't agree to a date! In fact, I didn't agree to anything!" Johnny didn't appear to give up as he persisted. He followed her around for a little while before she finally managed to ditch him at some point between him discussing a new promotional deal he was considering and his most recent action flick, Ninja Mime.

Sonya was free, if just for a short while. She wasn't so hungry anymore now, especially with the way Johnny had been after her. She felt good-!

"Sonya! We're going sparring and taking you with, let's go!" Jade and Kitana trapped each of Sonya's arms and they guided her out of the inn, all the while Sonya sparing a glance back to the kitchen.

Scorpion Chapter 1

The spectre folded his arms as he watched the male swing slowly back and forth before sighing, "If you're serious then I may be able to help you."

Jay nodded repeatedly before imploring, "I am!" He then glanced somewhere behind Scorpion before looking back to Scorpion to ask, "Are you -sure- the coast is clear? I thought I saw movement behind you."

Scorpion narrowed his white eyes at the male before turning around, if just to humor Jay. After glancing around a few times to make sure no one was there he then turned back to inform Jay, but was ironically cut off "Sorry, that must have been my mistake. Just in case, you could always prove me wrong by looking one more time?" Scorpion just sighed, unsure what the male was getting at.

Jay - Chapter 1

Jay smiled, mostly to himself. 'Well, well! He's got a cute ass! Wonder if I can make him do it again?'

Liu Kang Chapter 5

Liu woke up to see Kung Lao still passed out from the beating both Jay and Scorpion had given. Liu would go shake his brother a bit before the Shaolin monk came to. Kung Lao sat up before looking around. Finally, he looked to Liu Kang before offering, "I didn't see anything if you didn't?"
