Skarlet and Kenshi walked into the school.

"Are you sure you're okay?" He asked.

"Kenshi, I'm fine...what about Ermac."

"Mmm, he's okay. Not happy but not sad...neutral I guess." He opened the double doors for himself letting one crash into Skarlet.

"Ouch! Goddammit Kenshi!"

He laughed aloud. "You seemed tired. Just wanted to wake you up."

She smiled and rubbed her forehead. "Gee thanks."

They sat down and Kenshi took out a notebook.

"Wanna read my speech?"

"You read it."

"I'll try." Skarlet laughs and Kenshi cleared his throat. "Honestly I can't believe were gonna graduate. I thought at least ummm 25 of us were gonna get held back, me included, I mean all we basically did was party and not study or do homework. Not to mention hit a home run if you know what I mean. A Lot of drama occurred this year and best of all the engagement of Mrs. Sindel and Sir Tsung. Congrats on that! And best of all I experienced my very first time seeing! It was a wonderful two minutes. But of course I was cursed by blindness again. Being blind isn't so bad though! I get to make a lot of jokes. That slowly reduce my self-esteem." Kenshi flipped the paper over.

"Wow, that's better then anything I have ever read." Skarlet laughed. "I don't have anything yet."

"Well I wrote something for you too." He handed her a paper.

"The future is a mystery to everyone besides physics who can predict the future. But who knows what we will be when we get out of this place. Most likely half of us are gonna be criminals, no doubt. But maybe we'll make a mark on the world. And when I say that I don't mean peeing behind alley ways marking it. I mean leaving behind things that people will remember. One of us could become a president. Everyone knows that's gonna be Smoke. That kids got talent. Who would have thought he was a straight A student who never forgets about his homework? But the future holds many surprises that we cant even begin to think about. Hopefully we are happy and successful." She looked up. "Kenshi this is good!"

"Is it? I thought you wouldn't like it."

"No, its awesome. Way better then anything I have done." Skarlet put the paper away. "So about the dance afterwards?"

"Right! Student council guys said we should do a Mortal Kombat theme. So everyone wears the original outfits our ancestors wore." He nodded to himself. "I like the idea, what about you?"

"It's sounds fun. But I meant who are you going with?" She asked

"Oh. No one." He 'looked' away. "I'm just gonna be chillin with some friends like always."

"Don't you do that every dance we have?"

He shook his head. "I went with Kitana once that was back in middle school though. I haven't gone with anyone else sense."

"Wait...you went with Kitana!? Back in middle school?! I though she denied everyone?" Skarlet asked

"We were best friends in middle school! She said I was the only person she was willing to go with." Kenshi looked back at Skarlet. "What about you?"

"I'm going alone again. Last year I alone too. But Sonya was willing to keep me company the whole time."

"Really? There are a lot of single guys here. You shouldn't have a problem." Kenshi said.

"Well no one asks me and I'm to nervous to ask someone else." She sighed. "You're almost never embarrassed why don't you ask anyone?"

"Is anyone single?"

"Sonya. She's the only one. Well, and me." Skarlet shook her head. "Your right. Plus it's better to go alone, you don't have to impress anyone.".

"Aha! See that is a valid reason!" Kenshi grinned then turned back to the papers. "So, are the speeches good?"

"Yea! They're both awesome."

"FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC!!!" He stood up so quickly the chair fell backwards. "I'm hungry! It's 6:45 school starts at 8. I'm going to taco bell." Kenshi started to walk away then stopped. "Oh yea, you can come too."

Skarlet laughed and joined Kenshi for the adventure to taco bell.

The camera transitions to Kitana, Mileena, and Jade.

"I can't wait! I'm gonna have my make-up done twice this week!!!" Kitana squealed.

"That's right. Your parents wedding and the graduation. Jeez your gonna be pampered." Jade commented.

"Just like the princess you are." Mileena giggled.

Kitana smacked Mileena's back causing her to wince. "You're gonna get pampered too!"

"Ow! Quit being mean siiiis!!" Mileena whined.

"Hey, quit acting like a little kid you're 18 years old now!" Kitana grinned. "But you can't swear!" She gave loud and forced laugh.

Mileena pouted. "It's not fair!"

Jade laughed. "You two are so weird."

"Don't say you're not! You're just as weird if not more!" Kitana poked Jade's cheek. "You were the first to loose your virginity."

Jade blushed and punched Kitana's stomach.

"AHHH!" She fell to the floor rolling around in pain. "IT WAS A JOKE!!"

They arrive at school.

"This is the first time I've been here before 7." Jade said looking at the many empty tables. "It's actually quiet."

"I know! It's pretty relaxing." Kitana sat down and Mileena followed. Jade continued to observe.

"Did you run into Skarlet on the way here Jade?" Mileena asked.

"No, I didn't see her. Isn't she in charge of graduation?" Jade (re)asked.

"Oh yeah! She is." Kitana laughed. "Then should be here...where are they?"

They lookes around then suddenly Kitana's phone rang. She jumped and answered.

"Ello?" Kitana saud calmly. Then her wyes went wide. "WHAT!?" She stood up causing the chair to fly back. "Dad, where are you guys now?!?" She looked around frantically. "Should we go?!" She waited then nodded. "Okay. Okay I'll tell her." She hung up and forcefully lifted Mileena up. "Mom's water broke."

Mileena blinked. Then her eyes also went wide. "WHAT?!"

Jade looked at them. "Are you serious?! Where are they?!"

"Dad said they are driving to the hospital right now. Mil we gotta go." Kitana said.

Mileena nodded.

"Should I tell Mr. Raiden?" Jade askes.

"Yeah!"

Mileena and Kitana sprinted towards the dounle doors running into Liu, Kung Lao, Sub-Zero, Smoke, Noob, AND Scorpion. Of course they crashed into each other.

"Holy fuck! What are you two doing?!" Noob asked.

"AHHHH! Oh hi." Kitana said.

"Hi. Whats the hurry?" Liu asked.

"Sorry, we gotta go. Mom's gonna give birth soon." Kitana said (again).

"WHAT?!?" Smoke stared at Kitana. "No fucking way."

"Yes way! We gotta go!" With that Mileena and Kitana ran out towards the hospital.

Sorry this was short and up late. I was busy in the morning. And I fell asleep in the afternoon and woke up again in the evening. At Least I got it up! Better than nothing right? Yas! I might be able to update tomorrow not sure until then buay!!
