PAGE ONE

Panel 1: Akira and Satoshi are sparring. Akira sweeps Satoshis legs out from under him. Satoshi is able to catch himself and kick Akira back.  Akira evades a head kick and counters with one of his own. He then does a Blazing Nitro Kick that knocks Satoshi back

Akira: Hell yeah! Being half Edenian is badass!

Panel 2: Jade smirks. Satoshi gets up

Satoshi: Alright not bad at all. My turn

Panel 3: Satoshi teleports in a burst of flame and appears in front of Akira and kicks him in the head, knocking him down. Akira gets back up and tosses an incendiary kunai which Satoshi dodges.  Akira uses the distraction to land a flying knee to Satoshis jaw.   He follows up with a flaming kick to his body before landing a flaming uppercut that knocks him into the air.  Satoshi does an air teleport and goes to slash at Akira with his sword,  only for Akira to counter by taking out one of his swords

SFX: CLANG!

Panel 4: Akira and Satoshi engage in a sword battle.  They lock blades and look at each other

Satoshi: Yeah you're definitely related to me! The way you fight, the way you move. Classic Hasashi

Akira: No shit.  We're both trained by the the same dad anyway! It makes sense we'd be this good!

Panel 5: Akira and Satoshi leap back and blast fire beams at each other.  Satoshis Hellfire beam overtakes Akira's fire beam. Akira teleports and lands a Blazing Nitro Kick. Satoshi comes back with a flaming teleport uppercut. He stabs down at Akira who's able to roll away.  Akira gets up and utilizes the same force field Jade uses, allowing a fireball to harmlessly pass through him.  He teleports behind Satoshi and throws a kick- only for Satoshi to teleport out of sight.  He reappears behind Akira and lands a flaming kick that knocks him down

Panel 6: Akira is on the floor. Satoshi extends his hand.  Akira takes it and he's helped up.  They bow to each other

Satoshi: Hey you're good little bro

Akira: Damn right! And I'll beat you next time too.

Panel 7: They grin at each other.  Scorpion smiles.  Suddenly thunder cracks and Raiden appears. Everyone greets him

PAGE TWO

Panel 1: Raiden greets them back and approaches Scorpion and Jade.

Raiden: I sensed two familiar presences. I informed the others.  They're all gathered at the Sky Temple.

Scorpion: Alright.  These two will explain who they are as soon as we get there

Panel 2: Raiden nods and teleports everyone to the Sky Temple.  Sub-Zeros blue eyes are full of anger and Kitana can be seen comforting him, her hand on his face

Kitana: Don't worry Kuai. We'll make sure they perish

Sub-Zero: I know. I just refuse to let them hurt you or Bao.  If I fail in that...

Kitana: You won't fail my love.  I know it.

Panel 3: Sub-Zero closes his eyes and nods.  Kitana gently kisses him and they embrace.  Satoshi looks around,  astonished to see everyone again.  Scorpion and Raiden walk forward with him

Caption: After introducing himself,  Satoshi explains everything

Liu Kang: That damn Shang Tsung! No matter what timeline he's from he's up to his old schemes

Raiden: I'm not surprised.  Him being from an alternative timeline confirms the theory as truth: that there are an infinite number of universes out there, each with different versions of us. The Elder Gods had wondered about that for some time. Now we have solid proof
