Sorry if it's not that funny but the next chapters will be funnier, I promise. Oh, and thanks for clicking on my story. Hope you like it.


"Beat you again!" Nick yelled.

"Thanks for telling me because I couldn't see that." Nick's twin sister, Connie, rolled her eyes.

"Wait…wait…wait for it…"

"FATALITY!" the stereo boomed.

"Oh yeah! Fatality! Kung Loa loses again!" Nick declared as he stood up happily. "I am Raiden; the thunder god!"

Connie rolled her eyes and sighed heavily; her brother was way too ecstatic about this game as usual. They were playing Mortal Kombat again as they did often. They loved that game but it always seemed like Nick loved it more. His favorite character was Raiden and every time he beat someone with him he'd prance around as if he was the Queen of England or something. It got on Connie's nerves but it also pushed her to beat him…but whenever she did he'd never give her her props.

"You're not Raiden; you're a baboon." She said "I told you already, if Kenshi was in this game you'd be demolished."

Nick waved her remark off. "I don't get why you like that blind man; he's whack and he sure as heck isn't a challenge to Raiden."

"You're too arrogant! Just because you beat me a few times doesn't mean you're the best. If only Kenshi was an option…you'd get yours."

"Kenshi can't touch Raiden! Don't you dare offend me again!" Nick yelled.

"You're not Raiden, fool!" Connie yelled back irritated.

"You dare deny me?" he growled as he invaded his sister's personal face. "I challenge you to…Agni Kai!"

Connie pushed him away causing Nick to fall. He laughed as he sat up.

"Mortal Kombat! Do you accept?"

Connie yawned "Nah, I'm tired."

"Tired?" he repeated shocked.

"Yeah, it's after midnight. Plus it's pouring outside and rain makes me sleepy." She explained.

"Bawk! Bawk! Bawk!" Nick yelled flapping his arms. "Chicken!"

Connie rolled her eyes. "Why is it that were both 17 and yet you're the only immature one?"

"And why is it that I smell chicken! Bawk! Bawk! Oink!"

"It's thundering and lightning outside!" Connie protested then paused. "Did you just say oink?"

"Bawk! Bawk! Bawk!" he continued.

Realizing she'd never hear the end of it if she didn't play, she decided to take his offer.

"Fine…but if I win you must go without this game for a week."

He grinned. "And if I win you must address me as Raiden and play with me every night for a week…even if it's storming like it is now."

Connie hesitated but eventually shrugged. "Deal."

"RAIDEN!" the stereo boomed; Nick had chosen his character.

He grinned again. "Kung Lao will fail again!"

Connie smirked "Who said I was picking Kung Lao?"

"VERSUS RAIDEN!"

Nick sighed. "Abandoning your favorite character? It doesn't make a difference."

Connie growled. "I'm not abandoning Kung Lao…I'm just giving him a break…I'm going to beat you at your own game."

"Connie…remember to add 'The Thunder god' after you call me Raiden." He grinned goofily.

"And you wonder why I'm not friends with you on facebook."

"FIGHT!" the stereo boomed again.

The fight didn't take long; since Connie wasn't used to Raiden she lost the first round. But since Nick was so cocky he didn't realize she was getting better and he lost the second. It was in the third round that something changed. Each of them had managed to bring their life down extremely low which made them both cautious. They stood on the far side of the screen just waiting for the other to make a move.

"This is the end." He mumbled.

Then suddenly, surprisingly at the same time, they flew towards each other. (You know that torpedo move right?) Just before they hit each other lightning from the sky hit…their tv. The impact sent the twins flying back into the wall. The screen froze on the Raidens and then flashed like lightning. Then the screen turned black and eventually went to the character screen. Lightning continued to stay on the whole tv and it buzzed. Then as if things couldn't get any stranger someone slowly stepped out of the tv. That someone was Raiden.

"Oh…my…goofy goobers." Nick gasped.

But that wasn't all; Scorpion proceeded to step out along with Sub Zero and a bunch of others behind him. It was after Johnny Cage stepped out did the lightning leave and the tv set fire. The Xbox 360 blew up as everything was still.

"Where are we?" Scorpion demanded after a while.

Suddenly Nick picked up his jaw and stood up. "We come in peace." He slowly started towards them.

A few characters got into an offensive position but Nick continued with Connie not too far behind him scared. She was stunned he was acting to calm about the whole thing.

"Where are we?" Scorpion repeated.

"In my house."

"How did we get here?" Raiden spoke.

Nick grinned. "Raiden my main man!"

He held his hand up for a high five but Raiden just stared at it.

"You're going to leave me hanging? Okay…you're confused, I get it."

"How do you know of me?"

"Oh, I know all of you. You're in my video game."

"Video game?" Sub Zero repeated.

"Yeah…you know. Fatality!"

They stared at him for a minute and then Connie coughed. Lu Kang looked at her for a moment and then turned to Raiden.

"This doesn't seem like Earthrealm." He whispered.

"That's because it's not." Nick answered before Raiden. "Drop the realm…you guys are on Earth."

"Earth?" Kitana repeated. "Where is this? How did we get here?"

"Well beautiful…" Nick grinned "you came through my tv."

Kitana narrowed her eyes. "Tv? Lies…tricks from Shao Khan!"

Nick backed up when she took her fans out. "No, no, no…no lies…truth…how could I lie to someone as beautiful as you?"

Surprised by his complement she blushed and looked down. Nick grinned while Lu Kang did the exact opposite. He stepped up to Nick.

"Earth? Tv? Video game? Why have you brought us here?" he demanded.

"I didn't do it on purpose…but if I knew how I cant promise you I wouldn't do it again."

Lu Kang pushed him. "Lies! You work for Shao Khan! That's why none of his henchmen are here!"

Nick looked around and saw he was telling the truth. No Baraka or Mileena or cyborgs.

"Just luck I guess." Nick shrugged.

"I challenge you to-

Nick cut him off. "Agni Kai?"

"Wait…what?" Lu Kang was caught off guard.

"You know…Avatar the last Airbender? I can show you on my…burning television." He looked and saw the tv still on fire. "Uh, Sub Zero? A little help? Just a little."

Sub Zero reluctantly froze the tv putting out the fire.

"Thank you."

Lu Kang pushed him again. "You make no sense! Mortal Kom-

"Stop Lu Kang…he is telling the truth. This place is much larger and different. He does not work for Shao Khan…I cant even reach the elder gods." Raiden spoke, his voice thick with uncertainty.

It was silent for a minute until Kung Lao broke it.

"So how are we to get home?"

"Not through the tv obviously." Sonya said staring at the ice cube of a tv.

"I don't know…but however we get back it's going to be through the help of those two." Raiden said pointing at Nick and Connie.

Nick grinned. "Yes…and we will get you home…just not tonight."

"When?" Jax asked.

"Well…judging by the fact that my tv is broken…my xbox 360 blew up…and the new mortal kombat game is gone…I'd say a month or two."

"What?" they all yelled in unison including Connie.

Nick turned to his sister. "Well yeah, it's going to take a while. It's also going to be awesome!"

"Awesome?" Jade repeated "Being stuck here with you is awesome?"

"Aw, I'm not so bad babe. You'll come to love me…as I already love you." He winked.

Connie punched him. "Stop flirting with the females Nick."

"I cant help myself…but anyway since were going to be here for a while I suggest we get to know each other. Let's introduce ourselves."

The others looked to Raiden with pleading eyes but he just sighed.

"I'm Nicholas Hale but you can just call me Nick, and this is my twin sister Connie Hale…and you can just call her Connie…or Con-artist or even the Conster...oh, but I love calling her Conster-pated and you can even call her-

"Connie is fine." She glared at him.

Nick pointed to Scorpion. "And you are?"

"I am seconds away from tearing your head off." He growled.

Nick nodded. "Okay…no need for introductions…I know you all anyway." He cleared his throat. "Scorpion, Sub Zero, Raiden, Sonya, Kitana, Jade, Lu Kang, Kung Lao, Jax, Johnny Cage, and Ermac."

Nobody spoke for a minute or two again.

"Gosh you guys are quiet." Nick sighed "Well, I guess it's time to hit the hay."

"Why do we need to hit hay?" Ermac questioned.

"…it's just a saying…were not really going to hit hay…it's another way of saying lets go to sleep."

"Hitting hay means sleeping? That doesn't make any sense." Sub Zero said.

"What do you mean sleep? Here?" Kitana inquired. "We don't know this place."

"There's not really an option...but you guys can check out your surroundings if you feel the need to."

Nick didn't finish the sentence before they scattered and started snooping around. All left except Raiden who was still standing there unhappy.

He sighed. "I don't like it here."

"It's alright Raiden, my homie." Nick grinned "Everything's going to be fine. Right now you need to sleep…you do sleep right?"

Raiden didn't respond.

"…anyway, I have the sleeping arrangements all planned out. Kitana, Sonya, and Jade stay in my room…you can stay in my parents room, and everyone else out here somewhere."

Connie punched him again.

"And Kung Lao stays with Connie." Nick added.

Connie paused. "That can work."

"I may not know much about this place but I do know those sleeping arrangements don't have good intentions backed up behind them." Raiden said.

"They're good intentions…good for me." Nick said.

Connie interjected. "He's right. You all can sleep out here and well bring down some blankets."

Raiden nodded and took a seat on the couch. "Thank you Nicholas and Conster-pated Hale."

Connie glared at him as Nick laughed for a minute. "Good one Raiden…but you can just call me Nick.

Raiden wasn't listening, as he analyzed the Mortal Kombat box.

Nick and Connie headed for the others to tell them the plan.


Sorry if I assumed they knew (and didn't know) about certain things. Honestly I love the game but I've only played and finished Deception and the new 2011 game so I don't know much. My mom isn't too enthused about a game that involves killing. Smh. Anyway, review, review, review!
