The Scar

A Mortal Kombat Fanfiction

A.N. Welcome to the six o' clock news I'm your anchor, Arthur anymoredonuts.

Lmfao, sorry just thought I'd throw that out there, anyone?…no? Nothing? Not even a titter? Tough crowd.

Everyone except Sonic: *silent*
Sonic: Get off the stage! This ain't "Whose Line"!
Amy: This guy took someone else's jokes?
Sonic: CTRL+C and CTRL+V can do a heck of a lot of stuff!

I just got the Freddy Kruger downloadable content on my Mortal Kombat game and he is fucking BADASS! I love his fatalities. And it got me into Mortal Kombat again so much that I had to write ASAP!

This chapter is also Rated M for strong violence, language, and slight nudity.

Disclaimer: Go fly a kite

Emi: That's... not a disclaimer...

Be scared…be scarred!

Mai: Trust me, this fic will scar us. Possibly for the next month.

3rd Person P.O.V.

Princess Kitana had long since returned to her chambers and now lay completely naked under the blue satin sheets of her larger than king sized bed. Since she was the princess of Outworld she had a very royalty fit room.

James: *sarcastically* Totally not an author fantasy!
Amy: Man, this has all the subtlety of a dump truck!

Two open archways covered by dark magenta curtains shifting slightly in the cool evening breeze, rested at the left and right of her bed that lead to the balcony which over looked the entire island. A huge purple carpet covered her floor, a dresser with a large circular mirror sat in the bottom left corner of her room where all of her make up and jewelry rested. Not that she applied much make up, but she was fond of her jewels, especially her earrings. A walk in closet sat on the other side where she kept her outfits, including her gowns, combat suits, royal clothing, and although she never told anyone, she had one of her tailors fashion her some erotic lingerie which she kept in there, even though she hadn't found a suitor yet she still wanted to make sure she could be seductive.

Mai: I have a feeling that we're going to have to replace some keyboards in the future...

Her own personal bathroom was to the right of her room and was the same size of her bedroom. A hot spring lay in the center of it still fizzling slightly from the heat, the white tiles of the floor were basically reflecting everything off of them they were so clean, and four potted exotic plants were in the corners of the room for scenery.

The reason why Kitana lay nude now was because she really didn't like sleeping with clothing on.

Jessie: *singing* Why the fuck you lying? Why you always lying? Mmm, oh, my god, stop fucking lying...

Ever since she was young, she liked sleeping like this.

Jessie: Don't make me sing that again, you fucking liar.
Sonic: Straight up author fantasy. Can't even hide it.

But as of right now she was finding it very difficult to get some sleep, she was so excited. Earlier when she agreed to fight against the stupid Tarkatan, she knew it was an opportunity to take a look at the combatants and see if there was anybody physically appealing to her. She could completely recall her thoughts when she was first looking down the line.

"Too burly, too strange looking, too monstrous, woman, mmph I think I just vomited slightly, another women, too bulky, too…hmmm…"

The second she saw him, her mind almost locked. Almost as if he was an elder godsend. He wasn't too largely built, he didn't have any monstrous features and actually…he was kinda cute.

Cassy: Oh, fuck this Gary Stu wanking bullshit. Where's Rory?!
Sonic: He's probably hiding from you because he doesn't wanna riff this. On the other hand... I don't wanna riff this, either.

Kitana rolled over for what had to be the thousandth time. She just couldn't stop thinking about the events that took place this evening. Secretly during her fight, she continued to steal glances at the boy below her.

Keiko: We know, she's horny for the Gary Stu. Can we please move on with this holy terror?

The Tarkatan was such a slow foolish fighter, that she literally only put half her concentration into the fight. The boy was staring at her intently but their was no lust in his eyes, unlike the other male combatants and frighteningly, two female.

James: Oh, bloody Christ. We have that "he's not like the other guys" bullshit.
Amy: *bored* Haven't heard that one before. Makes no sense since he was staring at her butt.
Jessie: Wait, it's "frightening" that two women are attracted to another woman? Little boy, don't make me give you a permanent time out.
Cassy: Makes me wonder how your sister would respond to that.
Jessie: She'd probably laugh.
Emi: He truly is the Benji of Mortal Kombat.
Mai: Absolutely disgusting.

He just stared at her with what looked like interest. And for some reason, her heart started pounding in her chest. Faster than it had in…she couldn't even recall the last time her heart raced like that. Normally in fights, especially when they were against an incompetent opponent, she could stay calm and her heart didn't accelerate at all. But for some reason, the thought that he was staring at her, watching her fight caused her heart to pound like that.

She didn't know why but…she liked it.

Keiko: *flatly* Squish.

And then of course when the fight was over she did a very dangerously daring thing. She winked at him, and even broke her promise of not making a sound to the combatants by giggling. He seemed to perk up at that,

All: In more ways than one!

and when she walked away her jaw dropped because of her own actions. She knew that associating with the fighters, aside from combat was forbidden, and until then she had obeyed that rule but now that she had broken it, and it felt so good. Never had she felt so devious and she couldn't wait for tomorrow when she would see him again. But she wasn't sure if she could wait that long, she was barley able to focus on sleeping right now.

James: Start masturbating. Stuthor's probably doing that right now.
Cassy: Dude!

Perhaps she could sneak away from her chambers and find him during breakfast in the morning. It would be against her fathers rules, but she had already broke one so she might as well do it again. Kitana thought as she forced her eyes shut then eventually sank into sleep.

Amy: Can we get rid of this revenant and get the real princess Kitana in here?
Sonic: Oh, you sure like to dream big. That's great. It just won't work in this fic.

Kyle's P.O.V.

Keiko: This must have been how Sonic and Amy felt when they dealt with "Sasha's POV".
Amy: *grumbles as she pulls out her hammer*
Sonic: Amy... put the death weapon away, please.

My eyes peacefully drifted open as the warmth from the sun and the blankets over me practically bathed my body in what felt like relaxation heaven.

Mai: We didn't want to see you naked, either.
Emi: You do know that he's only in his boxers, right?
Mai: ...that's just as bad.

A small smile crept across my face and I wanted so badly to just roll over, shut my eyes again and sleep a little more.

James: And have wet dreams.
Jessie: *coughs*

But I knew that I had to get up, their was no specific time stated that I would have to go back to the dining hall for breakfast. But I didn't want to risk missing anything. Plus ever since I got here my watch just completely halted, now at first I thought that it's battery just died, but after seeing the events that took place last night. I know that something…for lack of a better word, magical is covering this island.

Sonic: It's the magical powers of Gary Stus and Mary Sues everywhere. Better start assimilatin' like... what was that, the Borg?
Emi: ...we're all going to die.
Jessie: I'm already there. Riffing just aged me by a decade.

Rising from the unbelievably comfy bed, I dropped to the floor and started doing my exercises. Sixty sit-ups, and sixty push-ups, I do this four times a day everyday not only to wake me up in the morning, but obviously to stay in shape.

Cassy: Who gives a shit?!
Amy: *tries not to laugh*
Sonic: Also, that's not how that works. Who the heck just gets out of bed and does push-ups and all of that like a robot? I thought that people go to the bathroom when they first wake up.
Mai: He's not human.
Amy: Wait, wait, wait, I think I got it. We have a scene of Kitana waking up to showcase how "womanly" she is, while we have this waking up scene with the Stu to showcase how "manly" he is.
James: Pure bollocks. This shit isn't supposed to be synchronized waking.

After my workout, I quickly walked over to the satchel containing my essential items and unzipped it to retrieve my clothes. I brought five tight black T-shirts, and three pairs of black jeans. Normally I would've brought other clothing as well but I didn't think the tournament would last that long, and plus I didn't expect to reveal who I was so, unfortunately I was stuck with what I got.

Keiko: Might as well go naked. Also... why should we care about what's in your bag? It's filler.

The fabric of my T-shirt clung to me as I slipped it on after my pants. Once I was dressed I walked over to my second satchel which contained my equipment and brought it to the wooden table that I laid my weapons and uniform out on and sat in one of the wooden chairs surrounding it.

I then placed my satchel on the floor, unzipped it and picked out some of the contents inside to rest on the table as well.

The entire satchel contained two boxes of .44 magnum rounds, each containing fifty rounds, four speed loaders loaded with six rounds, (two for each magnum) and two boxes of ten gauge shotgun shells holding ten shells in each box, but the shotguns already loaded with five shells already. Same goes for my magnums with six rounds in each. So it should be enough. Also in the satchel are three cleaning kits, one was for my revolvers, another for my shotgun, and the last is for my machete and bowie knife, a medical kit for any wounds I might receive, and three more knifes. One with a curved blade, another with a serrated edge, and lastly a flip knife.

Sonic: *snores*
Jessie: It has begun.
Keiko: So I was wrong. He managed to fall asleep.
Emi: This is not the gun and knife showcase, this is freaking Mortal Kombat.
Mai: He really is... compensating for something, isn't he?
James: With that flea market set? Yes.
Amy: *blinks* Wait... I just realized something else! The first tournament forced you to use your own skills, not your weaponry! He should've been stripped of them to force the rules of honor!
Cassy: So... he should only be using his knives?
Amy: Exactly! The rules are being twisted into a pretzel just to coddle the Stu!

I took out the cleaning kits from the satchel and rested them next to my weapons. I then removed the guns and the machete from their holsters and opened up the kits. I always clean my weapons whenever I'm about to go out as Black Scar. It's just to be sure that I don't have to worry about my guns jamming, or misfiring, or my blades breaking and getting stuck in objects…or people. Not that I'm stabbing people all the time, it's just that might be happening in the next few days.

I emptied the guns of all the ammo that was loaded in them. Then picked out a brush from the revolver cleaning kit, and stuck it into the muzzle of one of the magnums. Then I gently pushed it in before pulling it back out again, trying to catch any dirt or grime. Anything that could cause any malfunctions in the weapon.

Being as thorough as I can, I cleaned my weapons, loaded and holstered them, then slipped on my ribbed Kevlar vest, arm guards, gloves, and mask, then left my room and headed for the dining hall.

Cassy: Well, those descriptions only served to waste our time.
Amy: *as she nudges Sonic awake* No kidding.

When I entered, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it wasn't as crowded as it was last night. I was also surprised to see the new assortment of food that was laid out, it was all gourmet breakfast foods. Sausages, bacon, eggs, and all other good food that could wake anybody up in the morning happily. Hell, I would have been happy with a mini box of cereal and a pint carton of orange juice but I'll take this.

Emi: That would've been because all the money went to his bills... *laughs*
Mai: We can never take the mortgage stuff seriously.

But as I walked through the dining hall I felt like something was watching me, and although I couldn't tell what it was, I just had the strange feeling of eyes being on me.

Amy: Of course. Sues and Stus want attention, but they freak out when they do get it. Always happens.

Shrugging off the weird feeling, I searched the tables for one of the buddy's I made last night and was happy to locate Sonya at one of the far right tables. The same one we sat at last night.

I approached cheerfully and walked around the table to look at her. She was currently biting into her eggs sunny side up with her bronze fork, when she noticed I was standing there.

"Hey," I said from behind my mask.

"Why are you still wearing the mask?" She asked, I was actually taken aback by the question for a second until she added, "I've already seen your face, plus how are you gonna eat with it on?"

Point taken.

Keiko: You are so dumb.
Jessie: Edgy little boys aren't supposed to have smarts.
Amy: Maybe you should pummel him into needing that feeding tube, Jessie.
Jessie: That would be nice, but isn't that child abuse?
Sonic: He yammers about mortgages and his weapons. And he murders folks... so... no.

I blinked a few times then said, "Well alrighty then." I then reached behind my head, unclipped my mask then rested it on the table, before sitting down and immediately reaching for the provided tongs to grab myself some bacon.

"So…" I started, "How come you're here, I thought you were gonna be searching for that guy, what's his name? Kano?" I asked plopping the food onto my plate and picking up the large pitcher of milk sitting next to me then pouring a healthy amount into my goblet.

James: I thought that this was about Sonya. Why the hell should we care about what you're eventually gonna piss and shit out?
Emi: The spotlight always needs to be on him.
Jessie: Ah. Milk. The drink of choice for growing little boys.
Cassy: *points at Jessie's breasts* He won't be able to handle your drink, though.
Jessie: *slaps Cassy on the back of her head* Shut up.

Sonya sipped from her glass and said, "I thought I could get some more food in my belly before I started running around looking for that mad man." She stated honestly with her stern look remaining unchanged.

Mai: "In my belly". Excuse me?
Keiko: This person certainly loves to make tough people sound like seven year olds.
Sonic: Babality!

It was obvious she was very touchy about the subject and wanted to take this guy out fast.

I raised and lowered a shoulder and tried to focus on my food but that weird feeling that I was being watched was still clawing at the back of my head. To the point where I actually turned around in my seat and looked around to see if someone was there. Eventually however I just shrugged it off and continued to eat. Even if someone was watching me, it wasn't like I was doing anything interesting so who cares?

Cassy: Oh, look. He's trying to be humble. Dude, I've been here since the beginning. I know what you and your kind always try to pull over us.

3rd Person P.O.V.

Breakfast had been brought to Kitana by one of her servants before she had even risen from her bed. The servant was a female so it wasn't a big issue that Kitana was barely covered by her bed sheets, that was her fathers idea. No male servants, further adding to Kitana's frustration from lack of a suitor. But today there was a chance that all those problem's could be solved.

James: We get it, lesbians are somehow terrible. It'd be good if you'd stop being gross, yeah?

She ate her food quickly, then immediately took a bath in the hot spring located next to her bedroom. She wanted to be sure she was presentable.

After bathing, she dressed in a combat outfit that was identical to the one she wore the previous day. She liked this one because it was skin tight, allowing more maneuverability when in combat. She also believed that because of how revealing it was it would make her more attractive.

Sonic: *facepalms* We are going there. We are going there.
Cassy: The old "you're not attractive unless you wear skimpy clothing" route.
Amy: I'm so tired of that route.
Jessie: Also... skintight clothing actually restricts your movement in real life. It's why I don't like to wear skinny jeans.

Then, being as discreet as she possibly could, Kitana snuck out of the royal chambers utilizing her stealth skills to get to the combatants dining hall. She needed to see him again, even if she was risking getting in serious trouble with her father. She just wanted to see the face that practically plagued her sleep last night.

Mai: That face gives me nightmares.
Emi: The face that only a mother could love... when she gets him the pink tummy stuff.

And she would no matter what the cost.

Keiko: And she's paying for it with her characterization and dignity.

Being as skilled in stealth as she was, she had managed to get away from the royal chambers undetected and quickly made her way to the combatants dining room.

Mai: *turns invisible*
Sonic: The heck?
Mai: *reappears* What? I am a ninja, Sonic. Stealth is key, after all.
Sonic: Heh.

It was still quite early so she wasn't surprised to see that many combatants weren't there yet. But she was still pretty upset that she couldn't see that boy from the night before.

Amy: Okay, do we need that many sentences saying that "she needs to see him"? This is getting tedious, fic!

"He must not have arrived yet." Kitana thought deducing that he was still in his room. And at that point the devious part of her mind was telling her to go to his chamber, but she quickly denied her desire. He might get the wrong impression of her if he was catching her spying on him from outside his room.

James: No, he'll just bonk her. Stus always think with their baby carrot sized--
Keiko: Stop.

So after several moments of debate with herself, the princess finally decided to just wait until he arrived. Which would hopefully be soon…

It seemed like Kitana was standing behind the pillar for hours, although in reality it was only a few minutes.

Emi: This scene alone is causing this fic to run for hours.

She just wanted to see him, but it was like the universe was against her. And even though it was only ten minutes she was standing there, it felt like ten years to her when finally, the boy with the black scar appeared.

Cassy: About damn time. Maybe we can finally move away from this agonizing waiting crap.

Kitana's heart immediately picked up speed in it's beats when he took his first few steps into the room. She knew it was him because she saw him pick up that mask before she left the dining room the evening before. And although she did like the way the mask looked on him she preferred seeing his face, and was slightly disappointed when he didn't take it off at first.

Jessie: Too bad that we have to hear about her getting all squishy for the Stu instead.
Cassy: I must've made my wish on a monkey's paw.

Regardless she was still so happy that she got to see him, and was quite literally hugging the pillar out of happiness. This was so strange, she admitted to herself that she found this male attractive. But she had never felt this way before, and plus it wasn't exactly a princess like thing to be spying on a single Earthrealm warrior. This act should've been humiliating, never before had the woman stooped this low.

Keiko: A moment of self awareness.
Mai: A lifetime of stupidity.

She was still figuring all of this out, and she tried to chalk her actions up to just being a little curious and wanting to explore the thought of a suitor more.

Jessie: *coughbullshitcough*
James: Also... how can he be a suitor? He's fucking sixteen!

But that's when she noticed something that cause shock and jealousy begin to boil up in the pit of her stomach.

Emi: Bile's rising in mine.

He sat with a blonde woman.

Her hands that were once embracing the pillar then began to claw at it viciously. Kitana was getting so angry that she barley noticed the boy take his mask off.

"I don't think so." Kitana thought releasing the pillar from her death grip and storming off before she was noticed. She was going to make sure that the blonde wouldn't last long.

She was gonna personally get rid of her…

Sonic: Are you serious?! She's not that kind of character!
Amy: Stuthors have a very bad habit of reducing women to stereotypes.
Sonic: I know that, but remember that this guy said that he was gonna try to keep everyone in character.
Amy: I know that, too, but you should also remember that Stuthors and Suethors are never honest.

Kyle's P.O.V.

We were suddenly called up from our seats by a large amount of guards pulling all of us away from our food. Luckily I had finished, but I couldn't say the same for some of my fellow combatants. Sonya didn't care though, in fact I had already lost track of her so I just assumed that she slipped away to search for Kano. And if she snuck away, then that must've meant it was finally time for combat.

Cassy: If he's stuffed like that, it's gonna be hell to see what'll happen if someone splits his guts open.

So I quickly strapped my mask back onto my face and followed the guards for the next several minutes until we were brought to the same stage we stood before last night. The only difference was it was daytime now.

Jessie: *with a dunce cap on her head* No, really?

Then just like last night, out of nowhere that drum beat started up again and a crowd of monk like people stepped out onto the side of the stage opposite where we were standing and sat down waiting for I guessed Shang Tsung to start things up.

Keiko: Can't he just take his soul and be done with it?
Amy: He's already an empty husk, so that isn't going to happen.

"Black Scar!" I heard somebody call out and I turned to see that it was Stryker approaching me from the other end of the line up.

"Stryker!" I said back when he finally got close enough for us to exchange a sideways high five.

James: Disgusting.
Mai: *snickers*

We then were once more forced to just stand and wait patiently for this to start up. And finally after about fifteen minutes Shang Tsung once again appeared at the small throne on the top of the stage followed by the two smoking hot women in the same combat uniforms they were in last night.

Sonic: This fic's gonna be about his wood, isn't it?
Emi: Sonic... this entire fic is about his wood.
Mai: ...disgusting.
James: *laughs*
Jessie: Remember, he had no lust in his eyes! Yet... they were "smoking hot women". Go fuck yourself, you goddamn hypocrite.
James: Pretty sure that he's already doing that, Jess.
Jessie: Stop. If I wanted the extra vulgar humor, I'd switch with Kyo. He's probably trying to cook another Stu right now.

Shang Tsung then raised his hands in the same manner as last night to signal the invisible drummers to stop drumming.

He then spoke, "Combatants! The tournament to decide the fate of the realms begins today!" He said talking about the stupid realm crap again,

James: Oh, go blow smoke up your arse. You live in Earthrealm, you stupid little shit!

"And the first match will begin with the combatant…"

And at that moment all I could think was, "Please not me, please not me, please not me!"

All: What?!
Amy: Wait, wait, wait, wait, stop. This guy goes around killing people, and he's acting like a child? Oh. Wait...
Cassy: Our hero, dudes.
Mai: I want a new hero. He's awful.
Jessie: Wish denied, sweetie.

Sadly I didn't get my wish as he shouted out, "Black Scar!"

I let out a sigh of defeat and rolled my eyes at this, I sometimes wanna smack the person who sets all this crap up.

Keiko: You wrote it, Stuthor. So... maybe you should smack yourself.

Me and Stryker exchanged a glance before I stepped forward and started to walk around to the stage where the stairs were, but before I got to far away I heard Stryker whisper out, "Good luck man."

I really hope that I had as much luck as I could carry right now.

Emi: You're a self-insert. You're going to win. Also... do I smell a rotting fish?
Sonic: *plugs his nose* Oh, man, it's a dead herring!
Amy: Just let the workers remove the fish, Sonic.

The stage was covered in what looked like a really clean cloth made out of white silk. It was probably white so we could see exactly how much blood covered it during the fights.

I hope they change it every match.

Cassy: Like your diapers.
Keiko: Oh, my god...

"Black Scar is an Earthrealm warrior from the country America, and he will be fighting against…"

Oh boy…

"Reptile!"

Amy: Buh-dur-hay!
Sonic: *sarcastically* Didn't see that comin'.
Emi: Oh, he's definitely going to die. Reptile's the butt monkey of the series.
Jessie: I thought he survived the story in 9.
Emi: Yes, but Liu Kang killed him in the first film. Also, a good portion of this fic was written before "Mortal Kombat X" was released.
Amy: Doesn't matter, he's Reptile. He's been used, betrayed, and possessed throughout the series. And that's still less embarrassing than being killed by a Stu.

Suddenly there was a loud hiss coming from somewhere in front of me that sounded sort of like a snake but I couldn't see where it was exactly coming from. That was until completely out of nowhere a person just appeared right on the opposite side of the stage. Quite literally just manifesting out of thin air, although calling this creature a person might be stretching the logic a little bit considering this thing looked more like a lizard than it did a human.

Amy: And that just mirrored his appearance from the first film. On the other hand, we're talking about Reptile here.
Mai: Can't wait for the copied description of him.

3rd Person P.O.V.

This creature was called Reptile, it stood at 6'1' being almost exactly as tall as Kyle himself,

James: *angry* Oh, my fucking god!
Cassy: *laughs*
Jessie: *sighs* Here we go again...
Mai: It was coming.

weighing 189 pounds, his age is unknown, and was dressed in a pair of slightly loose fitting green pants with brown wooden shin guards at the end of them, with a very small green and black cuirass covering the front portion of his upper torso that was held up with black straps that went around to the back of his neck. One shoulder guard covering his right shoulder, he also uses two more brown wooden wrist guards on his arms as armor. And covering his face is a grey mask much like the ones some of the other combatants wore except it covered his whole head with a piece of thin black fabric revealing only his eyes. His skin is a sickly greenish color with several scales protruding from him, and his hands and feet are very lizard like extending several inches longer than human hands and feet.

Emi: Can you please let go of our hands?
Amy: We're too dumb to remember what the characters look like, remember? We need to have them held.
Cassy: So we can go over a cliff? No, thanks.

But his reptile like appearance isn't the only force to be reckoned with, it's his reptile like abilities. As everyone just witnessed he can camouflage himself almost entirely giving him the appearance of being invisible. And his saliva is composed of powerful corrosive fluids that can easily burn right through steel, much like acid. These traits all come from his race of Saurians, Reptile is the only one of his kind who wasn't forced into slavery and instead was trained to be a servant Shang Tsung and the emperor.

Mai: We already know that, you condescending narrator. Get on with the fight.
Keiko: After three or four of these, we should just ignore them. They're just wasting text space now.

Kyle and a large group of the combatants couldn't believe what they saw, they knew this creature was not human. And Kyle knew that he had to fight it, because right at that moment after everybody was finished gasping Shang Tsung yelled out, "Fight!"

Sonic: Then Reptile ate him. Fic's over!

Almost instantly Reptile let out a raspy roar, and Kyle raised his fists into a guard stance and the two started to circle each other around the stage waiting for one to make the first move.

Kyle however was nearly having a panic attack. This thing looked like one of those monsters in horror movies that could kill a man in ten seconds.

And now he had to fight it.

Mai: And I'm supposed to worry for him... why? This is the Gary Stu who has no problems beating up and killing people who are "lesser" than he is, yet he starts whining when he is being confronted with an actual challenge. It's ridiculous.
James: Then there's the part where he insults law enforcement and struts about like he's the bloody cock of the walk.

Reptile, and Kyle inched closer every time they took a step around the stage and when they were only about five feet away Reptile made the first move.

He flung his clawed fist out to meet Kyle who thanks to good reflexes dodged, but then was met with a even paced flurry of fists and claws trying to make contact with him. That's when Kyle noticed in between blocks that Reptile was pushing him towards the edge of the stage.

Kyle didn't know if falling off the stage eliminates you and he didn't want to find out so he finally made his move.

Sonic: Dunno, does the edge have spikes?
Cassy: Not for that stage.

He swung his left fist in a hook around to Reptiles face after blocking another blow and luckily it made contact with the green creatures face.

Jessie: Plot armor.
Sonic: *plays a rimshot*
Mai: Heh.

Kyle at this point was happy for the leather gloves because his fist caught the edge of the mask which had to be made out of metal, cause it hurt his knuckles slightly.

Keiko: You're in a fight. Of course you're going to get hurt, you idiot.
Mai: They always talk a tough game until they get hurt.
Keiko: Then he needs to go back to mommy, because this is a playground for adults.
James: Lady, you're sixteen.
Keiko: True, but I never said that I would join that death tournament.

But once again Kyle's victory first hit was short lived because when Reptile spun around from the force of the punch he immediately turned the spin into a counter attack, and brought up his left leg in a backwards kick using his heel to connect with Kyle's face.

Luckily for Kyle his mask was on which didn't stop some of the pain from the kick but it softened it greatly.

Cassy: Did the quality of the fight scenes just go down rapidly? The actions are fine, but the fic stops to jerk off to what the Stu has on, and that ruins everything.
Sonic: *as the Stu* Luckily, my millions of shields protected me!
Cassy: Ha!

The pressure from it however was to spin him around and knock him to his knees that's when he saw just how close to the edge of the stage he was. He needed to do something that would get Reptile to back up, so he did one of the only moves he knew that would push him back.

Emi: He flailed.
Amy: Critical hit!

He got back to his feet, turned to face Reptile then leaped into the air keeping his feet locked together then shoving them into Reptiles chest. And although Kyle's fall back to the ground hurt his ass, he was still happy to see that his jump kick managed to push back the reptilian human and knock him on his ass as well.

Amy: Little writing tip here. Again, try "back" instead of "ass". It would make the scenario look a lot less silly.

Reptile performed a backwards summersault to quickly roll back to his feet but then as Kyle stood back on his own, he was slightly surprised to see that the creature wasn't already approaching him and trying to push him over the edge again. But that's when Kyle heard something gurgling coming from the monster, something really wet and nasty.

The creature then pulled his head back and made a sound as if he was about to hock a loogie at someone. Which to Kyle's disgust, he did just that.

James: You. Fucking. Kill. People. Pretty sure that you've dealt with piss and puke while you were doing that, you snobby little wuss.
Emi: It sure is a lot different when he's being bound by those silly things that are called "rules".

A huge glob of mucus green fluid shot out of the holes in the front of the mask making it look like that things spit was projectiles.

Jessie: I think that was the point...

Kyle instantly dodged to the right avoiding the spit and watching it hit a small wooden pillar holding up a hut behind the stage.

"Did he just spit at me?" Kyle thought letting his jaw hang low behind the mask before looking back at Reptile who now had some droplets of mucus slipping out from his mask.

Mai: *as she twirls her dagger* Sure you don't want something else being thrown at you?

Kyle was about to speak but that's when he heard something sizzling behind him and without question he turned to see what it was.

The pillar was melting.

No joke, the wood was snapping in various places and when a droplet of the spit leaked down the pillar it quickly sank into the wood and smoke rose from it.

Sonic: I lost the suspense when it said "no joke". I'm not joking.

That's when Kyle realized how much of a monster he was fighting.

He had to bring him down.

Keiko: So... insert another part of the fight scene where his armor protected him. Just get to the killing already...

Reptile cocked his head back then spat again at Kyle who dove once more to the right but this time lost his footing on the dive and fell backwards onto his back.

Cassy: You mean his ass.
Emi: Oh, stop.

And once again Reptile was preparing for another spit-take when Kyle thought quickly enough to reach over to his side, draw out his magnum and fire a quick shot at the creature.

The bullet c connected with his skin on the right side of his ribcage where surely a lung would be.

Jessie: *bored* Oh, look. A perfect hit on the first try. On Reptile, no less.
Amy: He has superhuman agility. It should've taken at least a few bullets before the first hit.
Sonic: Man, nobody works for their stuff. It all has to be gift wrapped.

Reptiles spit came out as if it was blood just spurting out of his mouth from the shot. He then reached over and gripped his side where the bullet wound was, as Kyle got to his feet and ran over to him. Kyle at first wasn't going to use his weapons, or even kill him for that matter but now that he saw what a monster he was. He planned on doing it.

Keiko: Oh, please. Don't give us that "he wasn't planning to use them" nonsense. Those weapons were going to be used.
Amy: No kidding. We were getting paragraphs on top of paragraphs of the Stu's stuff, so we were definitely going to see them in action.
Mai: Also, this is the Mortal Kombat tournament. You're supposed to go all out. I don't know why this Stu is trying to go light in death matches.
Cassy: Because he's an idiot. Hey, you guys also know that he didn't get any confidence until he shot the dude?
Sonic: Gary Stus need their edgy weapons. It's not like they were going to have anything useful like a "personality".

A.N. Cut this chapter off here because I wanted to get it on Fanfiction really bad.

All: What?!
James: Don't admit shit like that, mate. It makes you look lazy.

The rest of the fight will be in the next chapter and Kitana will try even harder to get to know Kyle.

Emi: Shoot me.
Jessie: No.

Plus Jade will soon get involved and it's gonna get very interesting from here on in people.

All: *groans*
Sonic: I hate being right about stuff like this.
Mai: Same here.

Review or Reptile will throw up on your bed.

Cassy: If he does, he's paying for a replacement.
Keiko: You sleep in a coffin, Morgan.
Cassy: Hey, he said "bed". He didn't specifically say "mattress".

Next Chapter: Allies And Enemies

Amy: The allies are the characters who'll kiss the Stu's butt. The enemies are... well, every character who rightfully calls out the Stu or are characters that the Stuthor personally hates.
Jessie: Happens in every bad fic.
