Hey everybody, Figure I post a story I've been working on, their's probably a thousand grammatical errors but I fix those later, anyway, tell me what you guys think,
Mortal Kombat: R.E.D.
Prologue
Red Dragon Headquarters, Unknown Location
A man stood in a pitch-black room; decorum of Weapons and Dragons covered the walls and ceilings, a large bay window brought in the only rays of light inside. The man looked out the window, staring up into the night’s sky. Somewhere else the sky might have seemed peacefully gorgeous, but here its beauty was skewered with the sight of helicopters buzzing through, and defense missiles being shot out by weapons testers. ‘The realms have changed so much since my youth’ the man thought as he took a sip of wine.
Just then another man burst into the room, he wore a dark trench coat with armor plating. He had a worrisome look on his face as he bowed and said “Lord Daegon, I must speak with you.” Daegon did not move a muscle, he continued to stare out, he responded with a single word “Speak.” The man bowed his head again and elaborated, “Sir, we have heard back from the squad we sent to hunt down the traitor Kenshi…” he paused for a moment before continuing “The survivors reported that Kenshi managed to escape with the help of the Specter Scorpion and his apparent revived clan, and… Hsu Hao is dead.”
Daegon remained silent, until he finally replied, “Is that all the news you bring Mavado?” Mavado slowly shook his head, “No, sir, we also received a distress call from one of our Chinese Temples.” Daegon turned his head at that, he was all too aware of which temple he meant. “We sent reinforcements, but by the time they got there, the dagger was gone, and based on the trail of ice that was left, its seem as though the Assassin Sub Zero was responsible.” Daegon once again gave no facial emotion; though his hand began to squeeze his wine glass tighter and tighter, until it finally shattered under his force. Daegon took a breath and asked, “Were their any survivors?” Mavado gave him a slightly confused look “No my Lord.” Daegon turned away and said “Good.”
Daegon looked back up at the sky, whatever majesty it had left was removed from his eyes. Mavado rose to his feet and cautiously asked “What is our next move?” Daegon turned back to his subordinate, tapping his finger on his desk for a moment before replying “These recent failures show that our organization lacks the power it needs to stay dominate, Hsu Hao’s passing also leaves a gap of proper enforcers at our front lines.” Mavado gave his lord a questioning look, “So what do you suggest my lord?”
Tracing his hands around the crevices of his desk, Daegon replied, “I suggest we reinstate our recruitment program, the same one that originally yielded you and Hsu Hao.” Mavado bowed again to his master and said, “It shall be done my lord.” Daegon slammed his fists against the table, causing Mavado to flinch, “I do not want any of the common thugs that we already have amongst our ranks, I want warriors!” Mavado nodded as Daegon pointed a finger at him and gave him one final order “And I want you to find the cryomancer, bring the dagger and his head, to me!”
