~Introductions~

The time had come once again for the Mortal Kombat tournament to begin, Earthrealm and Outworld had assembled its fighters and the first couple of matches had been brought to an end, Earthrealm's protector Raiden and the shaolin monk Liu Kang approached the fighter who had just won for their realm, before the thunder god could speak however a bright flash of light blinded them.


When the three Earthrealmers where able to see once more, they saw they were no longer alone and they did not recognize their surroundings.

"Lord Raiden do you know where we are?" the monk asked, looking around confused.

"I do not" glancing at the others in the room Raiden took note of the Outworlders who were here with them.

"Oh good you all arrived here safely" An unknown voice called out from the back of the room, the kombatants turned in stances showing they were ready for a fight.

The source of the voice was a dark skinned woman in her mid-twenties with golden eyes behind a pair of ordinary glasses and shoulder length hair that started as black and lightened to a stark white at the end she also had a small scar on the left side of her lips, she wore a low cut blue dress that showed her modest cleavage and light purple hoodie over the top, she had knee high boots that matched her hoodie in colour, around her neck was a matching choker with a golden buckle and a blue crystal necklace hanging lowly.

Closing a book she held in her hand, she looked at the assembled group, "There's no need for violence" she said calmly "I have something very important to say"

"And why should we listen?" Raiden asked weary of a potential new threat.

"I know about the visions you just witnessed Raiden" she replied, confusing everyone present except the thunder god "I brought you all here to see a future that has to change"

"What do you mean?" asked a masked woman clad in blue.

"Well Kitana I have seen a lot of things, from the future Raiden just foresaw" she answered cryptically "To the future he will create trying to prevent it"

"But just who are you?" Liu Kang asked.

"I am the Thantom Phief" she answered with a smirk "and I think I should introduce all of you"

Phief looked across the room counting it's inhabitants and muttering their names "Liu Kang, Raiden, Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade, Jax Briggs, Scorpion, Kung Lao, Kitana, Jade, Kuai Liang, Smoke, Baraka and Reptile" nodding to herself after the count "Okay just one person left"

"Who?" Jade asked rather confused "and bring them after everyone else?"

"I actually brought her forth earlier" Phief answered "I just had to accelerate her development" after saying this she walked over to a door on the far right of the room before knocking on it three times "Mileena you can come in now"

As the door opened a person none of them had seen before walked in, if not for being clad in pink and her orange eyes she bared a startling resemblance to Kitana "Sister!" she exclaimed happily before running towards Kitana.

"Mileena wait" Phief called out, a yellow glow coating her hand before the same glow appeared on Mileena halting her in place "Wait until I explain everything and then go introduce yourself okay"

"Fine" she huffed like a scolded child.

"Now to explain to all of you, Kitana and Jade specifically" Phief started "Shang Tsung has been attempting to clone Kitana for some time now" she paused "Mileena here is his success, however don't treat her badly because of where she came from" Phief stared directly at Kitana as she said this "she needs help understanding the way the world works and genuinely desires family"

The glow dissipated and Mileena continued to walk to Kitana "Sister, it's nice to finally meet you" she cheered, hugging Kitana before she could react.

"Er... yes I am pleased to meet you too" Kitana said awkwardly looking to Jade for help, who was trying to hide her laughter at her friend's embarrassment.

"Why were we brought here as well?" Reptile spoke up.

"Most of you have more of an impact on the future than you think" Phief answered "and the rest of you honestly deserve better than what happens to you"

A golden glow surrounded Phief's hands once more as cushioned seats rose up from the floor "Now these viewings of the future will contain a glimpse into the previous timeline and you'll understand why Raiden wants to change it, and a couple things that have just happened to you, after that it will events that have yet to happen"

"So it'll be like a movie?" asked Cage, looking at the seats.

"Yeah pretty much" she relented "now food and drink will be available at the back of the room, so mingle around and I'll go set this up"

"Wait" Sonya spoke up from next to Jax "what are you?"

"Well… by your terms you could call me a sorceress" Phief answered taking a thinking pose "however I'm just the Thantom Phief, nothing special really" with this she summoned a golden portal and left, the gateway closing behind her.


~Earthrealm Group~

Raiden was lost in thought at the possibility of seeing the future in detail, knowing mistakes he would make and how to correct them.

Liu Kang was not fairing any better but was broken out of his trance when a tournament guard approached him, removing his mask to reveal "Kung Lao?" he questioned, surprised to see his friend here.

"Hello Liu Kang" he replied "I guess I should tell you I snuck into the tournament to prove myself"

"Hey nice hat, where'd ya get it?" Cage asked with a smirk, which he soon dropped at the annoyed stares he received "Geez tough crowd"

"Sonya do you believe any of what we were just told?" Jax asked in clear disbelief.

"I don't know" she answered honestly "BUT if this 'Phief' character is telling the truth we could save a lot of lives"

"True" he replied "we could also see some pretty messed up stuff"


~Outworld Group~

"Mileena can you release me?" Kitana asked, unable to keep the annoyed tone out of her voice.

Mileena complied, backing away a couple steps, "Who are you?" she asks, looking at the others with them.

"I am Jade" the green clad woman answers simply, unsure of how to react around her friend's clone.

"I am Baraka" the Tarkatan hissed through his teeth, offering a small bow the princess' sister.

"And you may call me Reptile" the final member of the group answered, bowing like his Tarkatan ally.


~Tundra and Smoke~

"Tundra do you believe what we have been told?" the grey clad ninja asked his friend.

"I do not know Smoke" Kuai Liang answered truthfully "I am curious as to why my brother was not brought here as well"

"It does seem strange" Smoke mused "if we are to see the future is there anything you'd like to see?"

"I hope to surpass my brother one day"


As everyone was wrapped up in their conversations a golden portal opened at the front of the room and Phief stepped "PINEAPPLES!" she yelled immediately drawing everyone's attention "Good you heard me, now everyone take your seats we are about to begin, any questions?"

When no one asked anything Phief merely shrugged and created another chair at the back of the room, walking over she took her seat "Good then let's begin"


~A/N~ Phief: The kombatants are here and will now see their tragic futures.

Phief: There will not be cast additions in the future, these characters are fan favourites and important to the future.

Phief: That's all for now, goodbye.
