Chapter 32

3rd P.O.V

It felt like hours or even years before Kristina could tell it was nightfall. Their cell never had a window to view the outside world so she had to pay attention the the guards' idle chats. She wanted to gag at the topics they discussed: Best brothels, Shao Kahn would give them some acknowledgment or listen to them touching their shafts.

Kristina was thankful to only view their backs or else she would have to blow her head up if she ever saw their dicks.

All she wanted to do now was to bust both her and Riana out of this cage then find their weapons before going back. She wondered if the boys ever noticed or realised that they were kidnapped. Oh well if they are not coming, might as well they handle this situation on their own. Which was fine for her. So many questions and thoughts ran through her mind outside and inside the cell.

Riana was almost motionless.

But Kristina saw something out of place. Slowly, she carefully pulled down Riana's dress to revealed her bare back that was decorated with scars. She traced the scars lightly, feeling her friend shuddering from the contact and heard a faint whimper of pain.

'Who the fuck did this to you,' Kristina wondered. She was not sure what's going on at home but from seeing Nash everyday, she thought everything was fine since he looked clean and fresh every time she saw him. Was there something Nash and Riana didn't want to talk about? Was the secret too great?

But Riana stirred awake. Her eyes lazily surveyed the cell from where she was chained.

"Sorry I slept," Riana gave her a small smile. "Not easy being chained and not able to move. At least I wasn't muzzled or hanged upside down."

"How can you make jokes when you're imprisoned like me?" Kristina asked. "Don't you want to escape?"

"I do," Riana nodded. "But what can I do other than struggling to break free and might snap my own neck? So I have to relax myself, play along with the plan Shang Tsung has for us and then we find our weapons."

Kristina thought that seemed like an alright plan. But she wished she could get out of this dress. She will never understand how to most girls fight or manoeuvre in them without having a panty shot to their enemies or trip? So both girls waited until a guard came to escort them to Shang Tsung's Flesh Pits. It was the same guard who silenced Riana during the trial at Edenia. He had that vibe that made Riana questioned his loyalty.

Along with the guard was no surprise that Erron Black was with them. This time, he had a blade that once belonged to a Tarkatan was strapped onto his back. Riana wondered if he had a spark with Kristina. Since Riana doesn't know Ermac too well to understand Bryan's exclamation once at the cafe. But if she ever meets Ermac again, she will observe him. What made Kristina interested in him.

"I've been here," Riana whispered, almost a mumble. Whatever they knocked her out with, it made her sleepy.

"No way," Kristina shook her head. "This is freaking horror show."

The guard wanted to hit both girls on the head to shut them up but decided not to with the gunslinger twitching to pull the trigger of his Colt gun. The guard guessed he couldn't wait to have a round with either one of them. But one has the bust while the other has the legs that could make any men pounce on her.

Shang Tsung was different the last time Riana saw him. Her eyes behind her glasses became wider than ever. His elderly white hair was now jet black along with his hair tied into a thin ponytail and there were a lack wrinkles. His robe attire was now changed to a yellow, more agile outfit.
