MCU: The Lawyer's Cold Case

Origins: The Lin Kuei Part 2

The Four Lin Kuei Warriors began making their way to the main building to meet with their grandmaster

In the mean time hydro and tomas made conversation.

"So Tomas, you figure out how to turn invisible yet?" Hydro asked interested in the warriors unique magic.

" Sadly no, its proved to be a more difficult endeavor then i expected, even floating didn't give me this much trouble." Tomas said discontent, he had been trying to pull off invisibility for weeks now

" Ah don't sweat it kid, it took me about a year to learn how to slice things with my water, keep at it you'll get there, who knows you might just have to make thinner smoke clouds hehe." Hydro chuckled, as he walked with his hands behind his head.

" thinner smoke...." Tomas thought , he would have to experiment with that later.

A bit ahead of them cyrax and y/n were leading , with y/n looking at his allies converse before facing forward again.

"Cyrax...tell me..what do you think about the cyber initiative?" Y/n asked, he knew how Sektor felt about it all too well, he was curious about cyrax's point of view.

"Hm...Well, on one side i understand why its being discussed, The Lin Kuei has been around for centuries but we have been slow in evolving, around the world people are taking advantage of technology and making truly powerful weapons, The Late Tony Stark being the most prominent example." Cyrax spoke thoughtfully

Y/n couldn't help inwardly sigh at the mention of The Late Avenger, the Lin Kuei didn't engage with the outside world but they still kept up with what was going on, He respected the avengers dedication to earth, they all stood on the front lines against thanos.

Despite his great love and respect for his late father,
y/n hated that the majority clan voted against providing aid in the fight, he understood why, being out in the open like that would put a spotlight on the clan which would lead to bigger problems, but for a battle that affected not just the world but the very universe...it felt cowardly to him.

"I see what you mean...on the other side?" Y/n asked curiously.

Cyrax couldn't help but sigh

"cyberfication... this is not a matter of losing a limb and getting an enhancement, we are willingly becoming cyborgs, deadlier than before yes ...but at the expense of our bodies....who's to say our souls will remain?...I am loyal to the clan and i will serve ... but i cannot lie to myself and say I'm enthusiastic about this." Cyrax said grimly.

Y/n could understand Cyrax, the clan was all the man knew, His loyalty had been tested before and he never wavered, he truly embodied the spirit of the lin kuei.

"What of you y/n, what do you think about it?" Cyrax asked wishing to know what the ice ninja thought.

"...There was a lesson on freedom my father imparted to me, " Better to die fighting for freedom than be a prisoner everyday of your life." Y/n said recalling his father's wisdom.

" you believe the cyber initiative will make you a prisoner?." Cyrax asked trying to understand

"You could say that, as you said , who's to say our souls will remain as cyborgs? I understand serving the clan but ...that cannot be all we were meant for, serving the clan and risk loosing who i am in the process....it's just not a fair trade to me." Y/n said clenching his hand.

Cyrax nodded considering the younger warriors words.

" Well... this is still a discussion of course, Grandmaster is your brother, and you know him best, do you think he will go through with it?." Cyrax asked, it didn't matter what anybody thought, the one who had final the say was Bi-Han.
