Chapter 54

Nash's P.O.V

The figure that Quan Chi summoned from the shadows was in clad black robs, a mask and I noticed the two sickles that were in both of his hands. I knew who this guy was! The one who was the first Sub Zero before the current one with Azril who had gone rogue:

Noob Saibot.

"I know who you are," Azril stated, his eyes focusing on the wraith ninja. "And I know why you and Quan Chi want me but I have to turn down the offer. I have other things to do than become a mindless revenant or carry out the dirty deeds."

Riana and I were this close to attack the black wraith when he brought out his sickle but Quan Chi raised his hand.

"Hmmm, you are very articulate and observant, dear boy," he commented. "No matter, I will still get you. Noob Saibot, get him."

This was when Azril was locked into a fight with the black wraith while my sister was still dealing with Jade who began to attack like a tigress on the prowl. Ermac was really handling Kitana with ease despite the revenant princess using her fan blades to create a gust of wind.

I guessed Ermac knew and used it to his advantage.

"As for you, boy," Quan Chi grabbed me by the ankle with the help of his necromancy. "I never thought I would find some use for you. But I have heard a lot about you, Nash. Trifling with women more than the emperor with his concubines?"

I said nothing because I'm sick and tired of people reminding me! Do they want me to carry this guilt for the rest of my life.

"I know what you're trying to do," I spoke quietly, holding the urge to beat the living shit out of him. "You want me to permanently break Kitana and Jade's trust in me."

Quan Chi nodded before chanting something that almost ripped the lower part of my legs. I struggled from those deadly hands coming our from the ground, feeling the blood. I better not have sand or anything rubbed into the wounds!

Whatever it is, I must break both of the Edenian ladies from this necromancer's control.

As usual, it's not Mortal Kombat without another fight. Quan Chi decided to fight me while I pray that Riana and Azril are alive in this bloodbath.

I used my hammer to swing at the oncoming hands, my eyes were too focused on the bald sorcerer. If I take him out here, there is a chance about us getting back to the surface. I don't want to be down here forever!

But Quan Chi had done something I did not expect:

He basically summoned more undead soldiers and warriors from the ground!

I'm starting to get tired of grinding my way with these guys instead of the main boss. So blindly, I began to swing and even use what ever muscle I have in my body to pummel whatever's in my way. I'm getting overwhelmed....I-

"LEAVE HIM ALONE!!" a shrill yet sultry voice shrieked. My jaws dropped when I saw who it was and I'm feeling a bit hot under the shirt.

Mileena was here and she brought the duo Ferra/Torr with her! 

The duo were charging all over the undead army, at least knocking Kitana and Jade down so that it will buy us time to recover. Torr, that brute of a man decided to slam down Kitana before clobbering her face brutally like the Hulk. Ferra has leaped out from Torr's back before landing on top of Jade. She then proceeds to slash her in a frenzy!

"Wha-" Before Quan Chi could process what was going on, I went for the kill.

It sounds crazy that an average teenage boy like me is going all out on a powerful necromancer but this is for everything! My friends, this world, our chance of going home...
