Quan-Chi
laughed as he looked at the fighters in front of him; Sonya Blade, Jax Briggs, Johnny Cage, Sub-Zero, Frost, Kung-Lao, Bo’
Rai Cho, and Kitana, all who stood in front of him. Around the fighters, the mummified soldiers of the Dragon King’s
undefeatable army turned to Quan-Chi awaiting their orders.
“The Deadly Alliance has began!” the sorcerer
cried out. “Every single one of the soldiers of the Dragon King’s undefeatable army has a soul and are ready to
conquer Outworld and Earthrealm.”
Sonya looked down at the dead woman by her feet. She was a beautiful woman
with long black hair, each of her strands spreading to different parts of the black marble floor. She wore a Chinese lavender
out fit designed with white flowers with a small slit going down the middle ending at her naval. A purple scarf wrapped around
her slim waist.
Her soul must’ve been the last they needed to revive all of the soldiers, Sonya thought.
Quan-Chi
continued. “But first, they will begin by destroying you mortals.” He pointed to Sonya and the rest of her allies,
then looked over at the army. “ATTACK!!!!!!!!!!!”
Sonya also noticed the Oni demons, Moloch and Drahmin
coming towards them. With whatever amount of strength they have and the number of soldiers we’re going to fight,
this is going to be a lot of work.
Jax turned to everyone. “I’ll fight those demons. You guys take
care of the mummies.”
“You can’t take those two by yourself,” said Johnny. “I’ll
help.”
“Be careful!” Sonya called out.
“We will,” Jax replied. He and Johnny ran
over to the Oni demons. Johnny took out his nunchakus and headed towards Drahmin while Jax ran over to Moloch.
Immediately
upon reaching them, Jax and Johnny were smashed in face with the demons’ weapons, Drahmin’s iron club, and Moloch’s
huge black ball. The two fighters flew backwards before landing hard on the ground.
Johnny rubbed his right arm. “Owe,
that hurt.”
“Did it really?” Jax replied sarcastically. “I seriously felt like I got hit by
Earthrealm itself.
Both of them immediately got up and ran back towards their opponents. Both Oni demons stood in their
stances prepared to face Jax and Johnny again.
Johnny ran over to Drahmin, his nunchakus out. “Come get a piece
of me!” he cried out.
Drahmin let out a grunt and charged after the mortal actor. He threw his clubbed arm at
Johnny’s head. Johnny ducked his head down, then chucked the loose end of his nunchakus at Drahmin’s abdomen as
quickly as he could. The move connected and Drahmin reared back a couple of feet, the flies around him following him. Johnny
crouched down to perform a sweep kick, but Drahmin saw the move coming and performed a back-flip kicking Johnny’s jaw
in the process. Johnny slid back on the marble floor about five feet.
Johnny quickly got himself back up, ignoring
the pain in his jaw. He could also taste the copper-tasting blood in his mouth and throbbing on the left side of his cheek.
When Drahmin kicked him, he had bit down the inside of his left cheek and ripped a small piece off. Johnny could taste that
piece of his cheek bitten off and he spitted it out.
As soon as Johnny straightened himself up, Drahmin was just a
foot away and tried to knee Johnny in the chest. Johnny saw it coming and blocked the move. The two began exchanging punches
and kicks at each other, one weakening the other.
When Johnny threw another punch at the demon’s face, Drahmin
grabbed the fist with one hand and held it with his large hand. “Face it mortal,” Drahmin said, his deep voice
rumbling behind his mask. “You will never defeat me.”
“Not if I can help it,” Johnny muttered
under his breath. He took his free hand and swung upward. A green ball of energy came out from his hand and smashed Drahmin
in the face. His mask shattered into pieces and fell quickly on to the floor. Johnny looked at the demon’s face. His
eyes were nothing but white and his face was just like the rest of his body, no skin, all muscles with a few bones sticking
out. When Drahmin growled at him, his showed off his yellow teeth.
Johnny arched up one of his eyebrows. “And
Jax tells me I should look in the mirror when it comes to being ugly.”
Drahmin let out a roar and sprinted towards
the Earthrealm actor. Johnny quickly lifted his right leg and glided towards the demon. Green shadows followed as well. Johnny
managed to land his foot into Drahmin’s chest, breaking a few ribs. Drahmin stumbled back. This gave Johnny a chance
to finish the battle.
Johnny brought his open right hand up and quickly planted it into Drahmin’s gut. This caused
the Oni demon to fall to his knees and cough up some blood. Then, Johnny raised his right hand up and once again planted his
hand onto Drahmin, this time in the head. He managed to get through the skull and into his brain. Blood splattered everywhere
and Drahmin screamed in pain and agony. When the demon stopped screaming and finally fell limp, Johnny took the brain in his
hand and ripped it out of his head.
“I just love doing tha........” Johnny tried to say, but before he
could finish his sentence, one of the mummified soldiers knocked him down to the ground.
Meanwhile, Jax spent most
of his time trying to dodge away from Moloch’s ball of chain. He was lucky when he was first hit, but had the feeling
that he wouldn’t be so lucky next time.
“Come on, big fella!” Jax cried out. “I dare you to
try to take a swing at me...again!”
Moloch pulled back a bit. This made Jax think that the Oni demon was going
to take another swing at the Special Forces agent. Instead, what he did next gave Jax a bit of a surprise. He inhaled quickly
and a huge gust of wind carried Jax right off his feet and towards Moloch.
“HEY!!” Jax cried out. When
close enough, Moloch took his free hand and smacked Jax upward. Jax flew in the air and as he came back down, Moloch took
his ball and smashed his left arm, the metal breaking off. Jax flew to the side and landed hard on the ground.
Jax
got himself up. “That arm cost me a lot of money! Now you’re really going to pay!”
Jax ran up to
Moloch. Moloch swung his ball. Jax duck and kicked his leg as hard as he could into Moloch’s shin. Nothing broke, but
Jax send Moloch enough pain to rear back a bit.
“Now we’re getting somewhere,” Jax replied.
Meanwhile,
the others were fighting the mummified army.
“There’s too many of them!” cried Kung Lao as he dodged
a sword from of the soldiers. “We’ll never be able to get them all down!”
“Keep going!”
replied Sonya as she broke a shin from another. “The more we take down, the better!”
Frost had just turned
her head to fight the next soldier when she noticed Quan-Chi creeping his way towards the exit. She narrowed her blue eyes
at him.
“You’re not getting away!” she cried out as she sprinted towards the sorcerer. Sub-Zero had
heard his student say that. He turned out and watched her run towards Quan-Chi.
“Frost, no!” Sub-Zero cried.
He dodged out of the way of the flying weapons around him as he made his way towards where Frost was running. When he did,
Quan-Chi had noticed her.
“Fool,” Quan-Chi said. He brought both of his hands to his right side, then quickly
shot it out. A yellowish-green shaped skull with large, black eyes shot out from his hands. Frost did not expect this and
didn’t have time to react. The skull went into her torso and stung her. It felt like a million bees stinging her all
at once.
“Ahh!” Frost cried out as she reared back. When the skull disappeared, she fell down to the ground
unconscious.
Sub-Zero looked at his pupil for a second, then back up at Quan-Chi. “You bastard,” he muttered.
He bended down a bit and quickly glided towards Quan-Chi. Sub-Zero went in such high speed that Quan-Chi didn’t have
time to react. With his fist, Sub-Zero gave Quan-Chi a hard punch. It was enough to make him fly back. As the sorcerer flew
back, the amulet fell out of his pocket and glided twenty feet away from him. Quan-Chi got himself up, not realizing that
the amulet is no longer in his possession. Sub-Zero ran over to him and the two began their battle. For awhile, they exchanged
punches, kicks, and blocks. Then, Quan-Chi went down on to the ground and glided towards Sub-Zero. He quickly lifted his left
leg, hitting Sub-Zero in the groin and sending him upwards. Sub-Zero flew upwards and back down head first. The landing was
not hard enough to knock him out, but hard enough for him to see stars.
Between the pain in his head and the pain in
his groin, Sub-Zero couldn’t get himself up. Quan-Chi saw his opportunity and took out his double broadswords and brought
them to Sub-Zero’s neck.
“Now, Ice Ninja,” Quan-Chi said with a sneer. “You will join those
in the Soulnado along with that little female version of you.”
Meanwhile, Jax was still dodging Moloch’s
ball. “When will this guy stop?” Jax asked himself.
That’s when he noticed something gold in the
corner of his eye. Jax quickly turned around and noticed the amulet lying on the ground. He also noticed Frost down, Quan-Chi
holding two swords towards the weaken Sub- Zero’s neck, and his friends surrounded by the mummified army.
“We
did our best,” said Kitana. “Fight with every last strength you have.”
“That’s right,”
said Bo’ Rai Cho. “At least we would go down like the honorable warriors we are.”
I won’t
let that happen, Jax thought.
Jax suddenly sense Moloch close behind. Moloch swung his ball and once again, Jax
dodged it.
“I didn’t want to do this,” Jax said taking out his machine gun. “But you asked
for it!”
Jax pulled the trigger and shot the Oni demon as much as he could. For a second, Moloch was fine, but
afterwards, he began to rear back and scream. Jax had almost ran out of bullets when the demon finally went down dead.
“Nighty
night, sucka,” Jax said. He turned around and quickly picked up the amulet.
Quan-Chi looked down at Sub-Zero.
Sub-Zero narrowed his eyes at the sorcerer. “Go ahead, kill me, but you’ll never win.”
“You’re
right and wrong,” Quan-Chi replied. “We will conquer the realms, that’s where you’re wrong. But you
are right about me going to kill you. DIE!”
Just before Quan-Chi raised his swords, he suddenly heard the sounds
of weapons behind dropped to the ground. He looked up and noticed the army facing one direction.
“What the...”
Quan-Chi muttered. He looked at where the army was looking. They were all looking at Jax, who was holding the amulet up.
“It’s
impossible!” the sorcerer cried touching the pouch where the amulet was before.
“That’s where you’re
wrong,” said Sub-Zero with a raspy voice. “It is possible.”
Jax cocked his head towards Quan-Chi.
“Eliminate him.”
The army turned towards Quan-Chi and ran after him.
“No!” Quan-Chi.
“I’m you’re master!”
“No, Quan-Chi,” Jax yelled out to him. “It is one who
holds the amulet, so basically it can be anyone. All I have to say other that is...that’s what you get!”
The
mortals watched as the dead army grabbed Quan-Chi. He screamed with terror as his limbs were ripped off of him piece by piece
and shredded him into pieces. Once that was enough, Jax dropped the amulet on to the floor and stomped on it as hard as he
could, shattering it into a million pieces.
With that impact, the army crumbled to the ground and the souls that were
in each of the bodies floated out slowly.
All of the souls floated towards outside except one. That soul lingered over
to the young woman the fighters found before the fight. The soul went back into her body. The woman’s eyes snapped open
and she began coughing.
“She’s alive!” Sonya cried out. Everyone ran over to her as Sub-Zero and
Frost got themselves up.
The woman looked at everyone slowly. “What happened?”
“We’ll
tell you everything outside,” Jax replied. “What’s you’re name?”
“Li Mei,”
she replied.
“Wait a minute,” Kitana said. “If the Soulnado is still running, when why did the souls
go out...........”
Before she finished her question, the building began to rumble and small rocks began falling
towards the ground.
“Time to go!” Jax cried carrying Li Mei into her arms. Sonya and Kung Lao helped Sub-Zero
while Kitana and Johnny helped Frost out of the building. They began to make their way outside before the palace engulfed
them.
