Nine Tailed Mutant Legend

CHP10: Discovery







Liu Kang and the group ride through an open field. The horses gallop at high speeds.

"We should keep to this path, we will run into them. I just hope we're not too late." Kung Lao says.

Not even two seconds pass, and they are surrounded by a group of familiar foes, who come out of the trees to their side. The invaders sit on the tops of black horses.

"Hey you Civilians over there, stop right where you are!"

The wind plus the speed they are moving at, blows Batman's cape at an upward position.

"Why don't you murderer's try and catch us, all you have done is create sadness and pain to the people of this world!" Kung Lao yells back.

The evil beings speed up, putting themselves next to the earth defenders. Leonardo holds on tight, reaching back in his sheath for a sword. Batman does the same, while reaching into his utility belt.

"You ingrates will be forced into submission!"

Liu leaps to the side, kicking one of them onto the ground tumbling. He now rides on the horse of the knight. Batman pulls out a batarang, throwing it to his side. The projectile hits another of them in the head, causing him to fall onto the field. The remaining guy realizing his defeat retreats going the other way. Leo looks back at the retreating character.

"Thank goodness there were only three of them; I don't know how many of them we could have taken, especially in this position." Kung Lao says.

The four of them continue on their path, hoping to catch and stop another group of the outsiders. Raphael steps into the ring cracking his knuckles. He looks outside of the ring to see a group of Lin Kuei fighters cheering. The surrounding walls in the room are covered with Japanese décor. In front of Raph, two of his opponents step in.

"Do your best Raphael son; I don't expect you to defeat them both. However I would like to see you take one of them down." The grand master tells.

The turtle steps forward, moving to the middle of the ring. His opponents do the same.

"So what's you're guess? Do you think this green guy will even beat one of them?"

"This mutant obviously is not from around here, I doubt he can take either of those two veterans."

Two of the members talk among each other. Subzero stands next to the grand master with crossed arms.

"You may begin; this will be a three minute match. I don't want either of you holding back on him." The grand master tells.

Both men nod, before turning to the turtle. The fight begins with one of them jumping over and kicking him in the back of his shell. Raph spins to the side, keeping himself from falling. The other ninja throws shurikens in his direction, noticing it instantly dodges them. One of them pulls out a staff while the other reveals a long blade. Raphael too pulls out his weapons. The staff comes at him in great speed and force. He jumps and slides out of the way of it. While doing this he kicks the weapon out of the wielder's hand. He turns just in time to block the blade of the approaching sword. He slashes the ninja on the arm, but is kneed in the stomach. The other Lin Kuei fighter from behind, kicks him to the ground. Showing no weakness, Raphael jumps right back up.

"Impressive, he isn't too bad. Let's just see how long he can keep it up." The grand master says.

Time passes by with the turtle sparring against some of the Lin Kuei's best. One of them tackles Raphael onto the ground, punching him viscously. He kicks the ninja into the air, after the few seconds of the punishment he took. Raphael jumps up running over to the ninja, throwing a series of punches and kicks on him. He ends it by upper cutting him out of the ring. The Lin Kuei member falls unconscious on the cement floor. The group of ninja's watching are clapping and cheering. Raphael smiles while turning to his remaining opponent.

"Un believable, maybe you should have had him fight against me. I'm curious to where he learned his techniques from." Subzero says.

"This turtle creature hasn't disappointed, let's see what he does with the amount of time that is left."

The Lin Kuei fighter kicks into Raphael who falls back a bit, but once again catches himself. The ninja attempt's to round house kick Raph across the face, but only to have it blocked. The turtle counter's it by throwing in a knife hand, which is blocked by the ninja. Both wanting to end the fight, pull there fists back gaining power. They slam there fists into the other's face. Both fall onto the ring floor. There seems to be no movement from either of them for a moment. That is short lived, as one of them slowly gets to there feet. The crowds of ninjas are loud and cheering, standing before them is Raphael! Both Subzero and the grand master stand shocked.

"I can't believe that turtle guy won, and not only that! But he K.O.'d them both! A ninja says in the group.

The grand master looks at the time, to see that forty seconds remained.

"You put on quite a show Raphael son, now step out of the ring and come this way."

Raph heads over to Subzero and the grandmaster.

"I would like to ask you a question. Who is your sensei? Surely you didn't learn that type of material arts on your own?" The grand master asks.

"It's actually a really long story, but I was trained by my Master Splinter. I can explain it to you later if you'd like, but for now we should focus on the mission."

The grand master looks over at Subzero, and then back at Raphael. He places a hand on both their shoulders.

"I guess your right, and I have made my decision. The two of you along with Tokie, will be the three I will send out. The three of you will begin your journey as quickly as now."

The grand master calls over the Lin Kuei member, as the four of them exit the room. They are given utilities and maps, before leaving.

Miles away

Batman pushes on a huge gate, which leads to an enormous castle. The dark knight enters with the others at his side. They walk across a field, making there way up some golden steps. Kung Lao places a hand on Batman's shoulder, pulling back on his cape slightly.

"We don't even know if they are inside. If we have made a mistake, we have a chance of being imprisoned for trespassing."

Bat's thinks about the Shalion fighter's prediction before turning around.

"That is why we will get in un noticed. If you're that concerned, you can wait out here, while the rest of us go in."

"I'm not worried, I just wanted to be sure you are aware of that."

The group back up from the castle.

"The best way for us to enter, is to find an opening on the rooftop. I want you all to grab hold of me." Batman tells.

They do as they are asked, while the caped crusader grapples them up. They walk slowly and carefully, making sure that none of them falls. The group walks over to a part of the roof that is stable.

"I think it best that the four of us split up, in groups of two. It will lower our chances of being noticed." Liu suggests.

"Good thinking, we need to lower our chances in definite, especially if this is one of their head quarters." Batman adds.

The dark knight digs into his utility belt, pulling out three devices.

"I want you all to wear these close to your ears, just incase we get separated somehow."

The three of them take the gadgets from him.

"What about you, how are we to keep contact with you if something happens?" Leonardo asks.

"I have one that is built into my cowl." He replies with half a smile.

The four of them stand silent, looking down at the many fields. Cows and horses can be seen galloping, or chewing on the dark grass. The warriors observe them for a while.

"It's time we head inside. Remember that if this is one of their bases, we get in and out. They would out number us by too great a margin." Batman tells.

The four split up, with Kung Lao traveling with Liu to the left. Batman lasers a window open, as he and Leo jump in. The room is filled with dust, and spider webs stretch among the walls. Leonardo walks over to a bookshelf, rubbing his hand across the top shelf of novels. He clears the dust off to read a few of the titles. Batman looks at the many lamps, which are covered in web.

"This must be the adic, judging by the surroundings." Leo says.

Batman picks up a picture, wiping the dust off it. He studies the image.

"I'm going to agree with you, it would seem they keep their antiques up in this place. This picture is of a passed king, which leads me to believe the invaders are not here."

"Maybe so, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't take a look around. After all, their trail seemed to have stopped in front of this place."

The turtle walks over to a spot in the room, pulling on a chain that pulls a board out of the ground. Fresh air enters the room; Leo looks down to see a hallway. Both He and the dark knight jump down. They move along with extreme caution. Liu and Kung Lao walk side by side, in a hall that get's its light from the torches on the wall. Stacked up against the walls are silver armor's, and paintings.

"I would imagine the people in this place would get depressed sometimes. Just look around, there are hardly any window's to let in some light." Liu complains.

"I don't know, but this place creeps me out a bit. We need to hurry up and see what is going on in this place, and get out.

The sound of footsteps can be heard ahead, the two-shalion fighters are quick to hide behind a statue. Kung Lao peaks his head out to get a glimpse. His eyes widen at what he sees. He puts his head back in, looking over at Liu.

"What is it? Tell me what you saw?"

"We need to contact batman, it's the knights they're here. They must have taken down the leaders of this palace."

Kung Lao fidgets with the device in his ear, trying to figure out how to work it. After pressing two buttons, the dark knight and Leo are notified. Both Leo and Batman look at statues that are made of clay.

"What is it; did the two of you find something?" Batman asks quietly.

"I don't know if the two of you discovered them, but the invaders are here! You don't have to ask me if I'm sure, I'm positive it's them."

"Good find, but we can't leave just yet. We need to find out why they are here, from what I have seen this castle is ran by citizens. I want you and Liu Kang to stay hidden, and try to locate the main room. Leo and I will do the same, Batman out.

The transition is ended, as Kung Lao turns over to Liu.

"Let's follow them down that hall, but slowly."

Both of them stand up, walking down the hall. A huge door can be seen, with a lot of sound behind it. Both of them walk over, putting an ear up next to it. So that they can hear what is going on.

"Everything seems to be going good, Klenk will be proud! Our master's dream will finally become a reality."

"So the women of this planet, will be taken back to ours? Or will they be held at our bases, here in this world."

"It depends; they are picked at random where they will go. You need not worry about that, our main focus should be on accomplishing the mission."

Liu and Kung Lao stand there for a bit, listening to them talk back and forth. They are both surprised, as they are pushed into the room. The two of them were to slow to react. From the ground, the shalion fighters look up at the tyrants.

"I found these two spying outside of the door. I'm assuming they've heard a lot and should be dealt with!"

The group of villains looks down on the two, who try and stay calm. Showing no fear, both shalion monks stand.

"I don't know how the two of you got in here, but this is not acceptable! I want the two of you to follow me."

Kung Lao almost protests, but Liu gives him the look to go along with it. Glass from the ceiling comes crashing in! They all look up to see the caped crusader gliding down. Leonardo comes sliding down a rope. Batman kicks the leader of the group, as he comes down.

"They aren't going anywhere with you! And what have you done to the citizens of this palace?"

The knight gets up wiping the blood from his mouth while smiling at bats.

"All of the un cooperative beings were killed, as for the others that is strictly private. Both the king and Queen were executed for not following our King's rules."

"I don't know what kind of sick people you are, what is the name that your leader goes by? If he is so great and powerful, why doesn't he do things himself?" Kung Lao asks.

"Our king goes by Klenk, and never speak of him like that again! I will cut your tongue out and feed it to the mosquitoes! Enough with the questions, the four of you will be disposed of this instant!"

The earth defenders get back to back. Leonardo takes out one of his swords, while Batman pulls out two batarangs. Liu looks down to see he did not come prepared, forgetting his nun chuck. Just as they are about to be attacked, the group of villains are electrified! Liu Kang looks to his side to see Raiden.

"I'm not sure whose rules you're all following, but this is a planet of peace. Is it power what your leader seeks, destroying the lives of innocents is not power! Nor I or the protectors of this planet will let you succeed!"

"Big words old man, but at this point we've already won. Alright gentle men, kill them all." A knight tells.

Raiden performs his torpedo glide, knocking a few of them into a wall. Batman grabs Liu Kang by his wrists swinging him around; he throws the Shalion fighter into the air. While up high, he performs his bicycle kick into the face of a knight. Raiden grabs another one of them shocking the dark warrior. Leonardo turns to Kung Lao, as the two of them fight a group of knights.

"I just have one question, how did you and Liu get discovered?" Leo asks, dodging a speeding blade.

"These guy's caught us off guard; I will make sure that doesn't happen again." Kung Lao replies kicking one of them across the room.

Batman elbows a knight into Raiden's direction who uppercuts him. Liu Kang shoots his dragon fire at a few of them. They are knocked over, but most of them get right back up. The surrounding doors bust open, with more of them pouring in.

"What is this, like two hundred to four?" Leo says a bit nervous.

Raiden looks around to see them quickly being out numbered. He fires off a few lightning bolts to clear a path.

"All of you grab hold of me!"

Liu Kang and the others jump over the many knights, grabbing hold of Raiden. There all teleported away. The knights look around confused on what happened to them. Raiden and the others re appear in front of a temple. A slight wind blows to the east.

"What is this place?" Leo asks.

"I want the four of you to wait outside here. Inside is the elder gods, I have one last meeting with them. It shouldn't take to long, so I want you all to be patient."

Raiden steps forward entering, with the four of them standing in place. Leonardo spots a huge rock, walking over and sitting on it. Kung Lao sits down next to him, while Liu Kang and Batman stand next to them. They give there devices back to Batman.

"I'm really starting to wonder how many of them there are, we could be in deep trouble. I'm not saying we can't win, there is always a way to come out on top. Things just seem to be getting tougher." Bats tells.

"I think it's time we go after them, from where ever there coming from. The longer we stay here, the more of them continue to come." Kung Lao says.

"That would be dangerous; we would be too out numbered. We need to come up with some sort of plan." Liu Kang tells.

The four of them sit there for over an hour, and when Raiden doesn't show up they begin training with each other. Many hours go by and Raiden finally exits. He comes out to see the four of them meditating. He looks up at the sky to see the sun setting behind the clouds. Raiden speaks bringing them all out of there Transition.

"I'm sorry, but that took much longer than I thought it would. Let's head back to the shalion temple now."

They all get up, as Raiden takes them all back to the shalion temple.

Subzero, Raphael, and Tokie walk around a lake. The three hold maps, as they continue walking toward substantial mountains. Raiden returns with the others into the training room. The room looks the same way they left it. The thunder god leaves them once again, through bright electricity. The four of them head into the back room to get cleaned up. The group takes there time, finishing at about the same time. Bruce throws his bat suit into a washing machine, putting on some clothes. Liu and Kung Lao do the same, and the four of them exit the back room.

"Your suit should be clean within the next thirty minutes." Kung Lao tells.

"No problem, I'll just get it tomorrow I will be turning in early. Leonardo and I will be going to recover his brothers first thing in the morning; I want the two of you to just focus on the invaders."

"How do you know that it isn't them, who have them captive?" Liu asks.

"I don't, but this will be a two man job no questions asked."

Everyone is quite until the entrance to the training room opens, as Spiderman and Naruto enter. Bruce shakes his head realizing the mistake he made.

"What the heck! Bruce Wayne, what is he doing here? And what happened to Batman?" Spiderman asks.

He looks around confused, and can see a smile grow on the billionaire's face. Spiderman almost laughs at this.

"Are you serious, a guy like you is Batman? I find that hard to believe, you seem so bright and cherry on TV. Do you have a split personality or something?"

"The questions can wait till later; we just got back and are tired. There is a lot that needs to be done tomorrow." Bruce responds.

"Speaking of that, where were you guy's all day? We tried looking for you, but gave up after an hour." Naruto asks.

"As I said before, questions can be answered later."

As Bruce heads to the door, Zatanna enters with two Ice cream cones. She is surprised to see him not as Batman. She attempts to say something but is cut off by him. He exits the room.

"What's wrong with him, he sure is in a bad mood?" She asks.

"I think he's probably just tired, I think it's time we all turn in. We have a lot to do tomorrow. The three of you can split yourselves up, and sleep in a room with either Batman or Naruto." Liu tells.

He exits the room as well, with Kung Lao following him.

"I guess the two of you can share the room with Naruto, I'll kick it with bats." Leo suggests.

"Thanks but no thanks; I want to share a room with him. I have a few questions to ask that guy any way." Spiderman replies.

"If that's what you want, than I'm fine with it. Why don't we all head upstairs. So are Jax, Johnny, and Sonya still here?" Leo asks.

"They actually left a few hours ago." Naruto tells.

Zatanna hands one of the cones to Naruto, while she begins licking on the other. They follow Leonardo as he exits the room. The leaf village ninja leads them up to his room unlocking the door. Spiderman walks across the hall knocking on a door. Bruce slightly opens it.

"What is it you want?"

Spidy can hear the agitation in his tone.

"Believe it or not, I'm now your official room mate!" He says cheerfully.

"Are you serious? I don't know how that is going to work out; there is just one minor problem."

"Let me have it, whatever it is I'm sure we can work it out."

Zatanna walks behind Spidy with a smirk on her face, pulling off his mask!

"Problem solved, he is Peter Parker you can let him in now. Sleep well you two." She says walking back across the room, into Naruto's room.

"Come on in Peter." Bruce says, fully opening the door.

Spidy walks in with a frown on his face.

"There is no need to pout; she just made the situation easier. If I wanted to, I could have figured out who you were on my own. I'll let you have the bed; I don't mind sleeping on the ground."

Bruce throws Spidy some shorts to sleep in; similar to the one's he wears. He throws a couple of blankets onto the ground creating a comforter, and lays his head down over a pillow. Peter gets un dressed turning off the lights and getting into the bed. He stares up at the wall for a bit, feeling restless.

"Hey Bruce, do you think you could tell me the story of how you became Batman? What motivated you to do such a thing, I had no idea a rich boy like you would fight crime? I'm not tired at all."

All Peter gets from him is a grunt.

"Take my advice Parker, look up at the ceiling and count as many bats as you can. That will make you tired." Bruce finally replies.

Peter laughs at his some what lame joke. Not another word is said as the two of them fall asleep eventually. Time passes through the night.

Something startles Peter, which awakens him. He can feel the breath of someone up against his lips. His first thought is Bruce!

"What the heck are you doi…"

A finger is placed on his lips to keep him quite.

"It's ok Peter it's just me."

As his eyes get use to the darkness, he can see that it is Zatanna. He sits up a bit, looking her up and down. She wears a long white tea shirt.

"What are you doing in here Zee?" He asks whispering.

Her leg crosses over as she rubs her foot against one of his legs. His heart rate speeds up!

"I can't stop thinking about the kiss we had earlier, there is something about you that I like."

"I like you a lot to Zee, but we hardly even know each other. I think it's best that we just stay friends for now."

"You're not rejecting me are you; I can make all your dreams come true."

She now rubs her hand up against his chest. Peter backs up from her a bit.

"I thought Bruce locked the door, how did you get in here?"

"Duh I used my magic."

"Look Zee, even if we were going to do anything Bruce would wake up. Come on now, he is Batman."

"That is where you are wrong."

With the snap of a finger, head phones appear on Bruce's ears with a force field around it.

"He won't be able to hear a thing through those. What's wrong Pete do I not turn you on?"

Zatanna moves over sitting on top of him and removing her shirt, to reveal her bra. She leans on him, pushing his back onto the bed.

"Just tell me if you want me, I can make this a night to remember!"

"I'm sorry Zee, but I just can't. I guess I failed to mention there is another woman in my life. I would have told you earlier, but I didn't think things would go this far."

Zatanna gets off of him putting her shirt back on, and getting rid of the head phones. She looks over at him.

"I'm so sorry about this Peter, please forgive me. Let's pretend this never happened. Good night."

She gets out of the bed stepping over Bruce and opening the door, closing it behind her. Peter lays down thinking before falling asleep again.
