The Disciples

Chapter 7

3rd P.O.V

Kristina would never had thought she would be living under the same roof with her favourite Mortal Kombat character. Sure, it's not a hotel-like experience but at least she gets a room for her own private needs. Here, she's taking a break after a little training with her mentor, Sheeva.

Sure she's a giant four-armed lady, but Kristina took the training like it was nothing. She will not understand how Bryan or Nash refuse to follow her to parks for a jog, letting the breeze caress your face while running. Hell, the only person she recognised at the parks was Riana. And she's overweight to begin with!

Yet Kristina remembered how Riana is physically strong which made up for her lack of speed. While training, she's thinking about what her friends are doing. She was so distracted, she didn't see a fist coming into her direction.

BIFF!

The girl clutched her stomach before glaring at her four-armed mentor. "What the hell was that for?!"

"Weren't you even listening?" Sheeva asked. "I called you three times but you were drifting. So I decided to see if you would react if I use one of my punches. Apparently, you were too slow." She squatted down to take a good look at her disciple.

"You're thinking," she stated. "Is it about your so called 'friends'?"

Kristina blinked. "What do you mean 'so called friends'? They ARE my friends! Sure we don't have the same interests but we stick together. Yeah, even Nash's sister is part of the team. I'm just thinking about what are they doing right now."

"Training," Sheeva answered bluntly. "The same thing we are doing. But by watching them at the tournament, I don't think the three of them will ever survive. Especially that skinny four-eyes who screamed his way to defeat."

Kristina couldn't help but chuckle at the memory of Bryan screaming his way to defeat while battling Goro. It was funny but it would be scary to see him dismembered in front of the Shaolin. Despite his attitude, Bryan is another friend who accepted Kristina as who she is other than Nash. "Bryan may seemed like a pussy," Kristina sighed. "But be careful if you have any device or fabric. I am serious! He can build a little gadget that could wipe our minds out while wearing the latest trend of shirt at the same time! Don't get me started on his dancing skills."

"You're exaggerating."

"I'm not!" Kristina shook her head, smiling. "As much as it is unbelievable, Bryan is pretty much alright once you get to know him."

Sheeva smirked at her disciple. "And do you have romantic feelings for this boy?" This made Kristina flabbergasted.

"What?! Me and Bryan? Blech!" she stuck her tongue out in disgust. She couldn't imagined Bryan as a boyfriend material in general. All people would see him as a weirdo with a fascination for the latest trend whether it is a gadget or fashion. Sometimes, she will admit the fact he has a better taste in clothing than any preppy girl she knew. Sheeva kneeled down to her disciple's level.

"You want to visit them?" she asked. Kristina nodded. "Yeah...I just want to make sure they're okay and not do something stupid that will cause a mass destruction to the world."

The four-armed warrior chuckled. "Well, we are suppose to meet up at the dojo tomorrow for practice. Maybe we will meet them there. If not, I can take you to the Outworld market. You might bump into your friends there."

The young girl broke into a grin. If they are going to be there-

"Let's get back to training!" she announced enthusiastically. "I'm gonna kick their ass tomorrow! Especially Bryan! He better be prepared!" She was than greeted with an upcoming uppercut for which she dodged it in time.
