Mortal Kombat: In the Dark

In the Darkness

(October 9, 1992—17 minutes after preparing to face Nitara)

"I've been going easy on you all the entire time." Nitara stated. I want to deny it, but I actually do believe her. We've been shooting at her for a while, yet all she's doing is dodging our shots left and right. She didn't even try and attack us. It felt like this fight was almost easier than my fight with Ciero.

 

"Then I suggest you start getting serious!" Sgt. Capitol shouted as he continued to fire his gun at the woman. Kano kept on firing his eye laser at the woman. As one of the lasers contacted her, she used some sort of force to redirect the laser towards and nearby building. This is not a good sign.

 

"I was trying to give you all a chance for redemption. I will only give you one last chance to walk away. I won't hold back if you decline the offer." she threatened. I looked at everyone for thoughts on what I should do. Stryker didn't want to run, but I could tell he'd decide on a better solution. Metric didn't know what he should do in this situation. He is the best strategist and tactician in our group and he would've been the best person to take Fang's place. He knows there is no escape and he just wants this to all be over. Capitol wasn't going anywhere. He was reloading his gun to prepare for the next attack. Kano looked in my direction awaiting my decision. We need to do this, regardless of the consequences

 

"I'm sorry, but there's no going back Nitara." I responded. We all directed our weapons towards Nitara as we prepared to unload a full clip into her body. However, time stopped as Ciero's voice echo through my mind. I looked towards Kano and saw that he wasn't in on the conversation this time.

 

"Sonya, you've just made the biggest mistake of your life." Ciero stated.

"What should I do to stop her?" I asked.

"I'm not here to give you advice. I'm here to give you a heads up on what's about to happen." Ciero responded. With that, I went back into real-time.

 

"Have it your way." Nitara stated plainly. We began to unleash our attacks onto her. At the point of collision, her entire body vanished. We stopped firing one our clips ran out of ammo. Kano looked around to see if he could find out her true fate.

 

"Aw come on!" Capitol shouted. He sounded as if he knew something bad was about to happen; and it did.

 

We saw Capitol's body soar into the sky above at a very fast speed. We could see the vampire behind him carrying him past the cloud. After a few seconds, we began to see what looked like a human figure falling from the sky. As worst case scenario goes, it turned out to be Capitol's body. It finally met the ground. Surprisingly, his body didn't splatter like I thought it would. From a drop that high, he should've been unrecognizable. I think she sucked his blood, but how did she do it so fast?

 

Next, she dived straight down towards Metric. He panicked as he reloaded his gun. He unleashed at least half of his Uzi clip into the sky, but she easily dodged each shot. As soon as her body was close to crashing into him, she stopped herself. His eyes were closed as he thought he was already smashed to bits. He slowly opened his eyes and looked directly into her face, which was upside down and directly in front of him. She gave him a slow warm smile. He felt some relief, but it was short live. She flashed her teeth and sunk them directly into the left side of his neck. She quickly ripped the neck muscle apart, instantly killing him. She then turned her attention to Stryker.
