Love & War 6: Replicants
Chapter 30: The Meeting in Edenia
A few days later, Jade and Tanya attended a meeting in Edenia. Sindel as well as Mileena of Outworld were discussing the dire situation in Earthrealm.
"these so-called Replicants are about to invade Earth," said Sindel. "Jade already took the position of general, a position our Earthrealm hero Melody once had, because of the heavy burden she took leading two armies."
"And Jemarcus took the lieutenant spot," said Tanya.
"As he should. Mileena, what is your take on this crisis?"
"My main concern is Outworld, but since Melody is already at war, but I'm putting it aside for the time being."
"I understand you and Kotal Kahn are still at war."
"He stole my throne. I will have his head."
"Mileena, we can seriously use your help," said Jade. "Melody is seeking more allies in this war. She cannot fight it alone."
"I'd like to test Melody and see if she is indeed worthy of protecting Earthrealm."
"You're not still angry at Chris for defeating Shao Kahn?"
"I've learned to accept it, but that doesn't mean I won't fight him for it."
"But you will not kill him, Mileena."
"Who said anything about killing him? Melody will have my head too."
"Unlike us, she's not one to kill for any reason," said Tanya.
"But only if the situation requires it, but I find the likelihood of that happening is small."
"So, our next move?" Sindel asks.
"We find Li Mei in Outworld. She rescued Chris long ago from Tanya."
"Ah yes. My clone abducted him thanks to the Black Dragon. If it weren't for Li Mei, Chris would surely had been dead."
"And I will report to Sonya Blade. Kitana is there at the Refugee Kamp. I assume Melody's female allies are as well."
"Then we will take our leave for Outworld," said Jade.
"Go now, ladies, and may the Elder Gods watch over you."
