Love & War 6: Replicants
Chapter 31: Ambush At Sun Do
Jade, Kitana, Mileena and Tanya entered Sun Do bia portal from Edenia. They began searching for Like Me when they were ambushed by... their Replicant clones! Kitana in her MK Deadly Alliance primary skin, Tanya in her MK Deception skin, Mileena in her MK Deception skin and Jade in her MK Shaolin Monks skin.
"Tanya! We meet again."
"You! But how?"
"I'm everywhere you wish to be. Me and my new friends were created by Garhos himself. He has arrived to take over all the realms.'
"I don't think so!" Jade exclaimed.
"Look at you," said Replicant Jade. "A fragile shell of your former self, having children by that fool Earthrealmer. You killed for Shao Kahn years ago."
"A life I left behind."
"Not for long after I kill you."
Both Jades fight. Master Raven was right all along. There would be a time where Jade would fight her clone. And this was the time. They both possess the same fighting style, which would be difficult. But Jade remembered what Melody told her. "The life of a assassin is beyond you. You are better than that." That thought empowered her as she landed her patented Eclipse Kick. Meanwhile, Mileena was fight her clone.
"What happened to you, Mileena?," asked Replicant Mileena. "You were created by Shang Tsung to replace Kitana. Now you side with her and her harlots?"
"I've evolved since then."
"I will have your throne and Outworld!"
Both Mileenas combat each other. Tanya roundhouses Replicant Tanya into a house. From a distance, Li Mei was watching the battle. She soon realized that they are fighting their Replicant selves. She rushed to their aid as Tanya was down. Replicant Tanya was going in for the kill as Li Mei clocked her in the back of her head. Kitana was successful in defeating her clone while Mileena savagely slaughtered her clone as well. Jade defeated hers but refused to finish her.
"Are you girls alright?" Asked Li Mei.
"We will be," Kitana replied.
"Jade?" Tanya went to her.
"I..."
"Jade, I know Melody told you that your assassin days are over, but..."
"I can't."
"She will take your family and kill them if you don't kill her. Melody will understand."
Jade looked at her fallen clone. She readied her staff with hesitation.
"I'm sorry, Melody."
She stabbed her staff through her clone's head.
"You won't threaten my friends and family."
