Love & War 6: Replicants
Epilogue
In case you're wondering what happened when Uganda got nuked, Ultratech, Shadaloo and the Mishima Zaibatsu fell under question for the attack. Even though Talon committed the act, all three companies were facing enormous lawsuits. As a result, they were no more. ARIA was shut down due to her programming corruption, Heihachi Mishima was forced to return to Japan, where he was facing prison time for the nuclear conspiracy in Uganda. And Bison is still at large, but Ryu, Chun Li, Ken, Karin, Menat, Sakura and many Street Fighter greats have it taken care of. As far as Mortal Kombat goes, the realms are safe thanks to Melody. Gudelia visited Chris' family and thanked him for his efforts in saving Columbus. Queen Sindel of Edenia once again knighted Melody. Even better, Chris made an announcement to military and police agencies across America that he is electing Melody into the position of General of the Homefront Warriors. With this new position, Melody had become much more stronger than before. Starfire watched as Melody was hailed, and with a smile, she was glad that Melody represented strength and commitment in any conflict. Samus also thanked Melody and her family once again and returned to space. Glacius was impressed with Melody's unique powers in saving the world. When he learned of Ultratech's demise, he found what he was looking for and left for space. Jago and Orchid, as well as Combo, Kim Wu and Maya celebrated in their hideout in Eastern Europe until Melody used Orchid's info of her discovery in Ultratech concerning their Fulgore project, which no longer exists, therefore clearing her name of whatever incidents had tarnished her reputation. Combo regained fame in Boxing and became champion again. Jago returned to Tibet and continued training and meditating. Jin Kazama was standing on a building in Tokyo. His vision involving Melody saving the world was correct. Raiden explained Melody's actions on saving the realms to the Elder Gods. They believed that she was indeed the chosen one. Amelie LaCroix remained in this world and taught Jade Ballet. Watching the sunset at home, Melody reflected on how she became the defender of Earthrealm. She remembered Chris naming her as such during their reunion in Edenia, and a few days later, his prophecy came true, just like Tanya's, when she rescued him after defeating Shinnok. Realizing that the threat is vanquished once more, Melody was once again praised for the mission accomplished. In the eyes of this woman shows significance of hope, justice and more importantly, love. These attributes are like lights shone in her eyes that will illuminate the future.
And it's been said before: All is fair in love & war, but it's more about the love, not the war.
