So, I've been burnt out to hell. Long story short, I haven't mustered the energy to write for a while due to the combined factors of major events, hardships and straight up laziness. So I'm trying something a bit lighter and simpler. Mortal Kombat 11 intros with RWBY characters. I love Mortal Kombat and I love RWBY, warts and all. So I'm compiling different characters from RWBY to interact with MK11 characters. Think of each RWBY character like a Kombat Pack character so they will only interact with characters from the game (…for now).

Let's kick this off with the series mascot and protagonist…Ruby Rose!


Mirror Match

Ruby: You came a long way to cause trouble, Neo!

Ruby: I'm not a mute, you doofus!

Ruby: Wait, you're actually me?!


Ruby: Mom, is that you?

Ruby: I've missed you so much, Ruby

Ruby: I almost believed you for a second there


Ruby: Emerald's going to pay for messing with me

Ruby: I'm as real as you, clone Me

Ruby: Not sure if that makes me more or less worried


Ruby: Don't think Team RWBY can handle two of us

Ruby: Neither can Salem or the Grimm

Ruby: How do I know you're not working for her?


Vs. Cassie Cage

Ruby Rose: Can you help me? I'm looking for my teammates.

Cassie Cage: Hot blonde, cat girl and Frost 2.0?

Ruby Rose: Yep! That's them!


Ruby Rose: Looking for a sparring partner, Cassie?

Cassie Cage: I wanna see what that scythe can do

Ruby Rose: Without an aura, it'll be messy


Cassie Cage: Can I try out that scythe? Just once?

Ruby Rose: Crescent Rose needs a lot of love

Cassie Cage: I know how to look after weapons, Ruby


Cassie Cage: Your sister's told me all about you, Ruby

Ruby Rose: Ooh, Yang mention any good parts?

Cassie Cage: If you back it up, they'll be even better


Vs Sonya Blade

Sonya Blade: Wait, you're how old?

Ruby Rose: I'm 17 and I've been fighting for two years

Sonya Blade: Doesn't mean you're prepared for war


Sonya Blade: You're too attached to that scythe, Ruby!

Ruby Rose: I can cut through hordes of Grimm with this baby

Sonya Blade: And without it?


Ruby Rose: So you're in charge of the Special Forces?

Sonya Blade: You sound tense, don't you trust me?

Ruby Rose: I haven't had the best experience with generals


Ruby Rose: So what are you gonna do with me and my friends?

Sonya Blade: Keep you under escort till we find you a way home

Ruby Rose: That sounds like house arrest


Vs Johnny Cage

Johnny Cage: Ever thought about show biz?

Ruby Rose: Sorry, I'm too camera shy

Johnny Cage: Maybe when you're older, sweetheart


Johnny Cage: So you're not from Earthrealm?

Ruby Rose: No, I'm from Remnant

Johnny Cage: So that technically makes you an alien?


Ruby Rose: Don't make me hit you, Johnny!

Johnny Cage: With your fists or the weaponised weathervane?

Ruby Rose: Now you're gonna get it!


Ruby Rose: You kind of remind me of my Dad

Johnny Cage: Sorry, got my hands full with just one little girl

Ruby Rose: Cassie's lucky to have you


Vs Jacqui Briggs

Jacqui Briggs: Me and Yang have been comparing stats

Ruby Rose: Nothing beats her when she gets going

Jacqui Briggs: She nearly roasted me in our last match


Jacqui Briggs: That scythe looks heavy, Ruby

Ruby Rose: No, Jacqui you can't borrow her

Jacqui Briggs: Damn it, so close


Ruby Rose: I heard about your mom, I'm sorry

Jacqui Briggs: She'll always be with me, Ruby

Ruby Rose: I hope so


Ruby Rose: I've lost my mother as well, Jacqui

Jacqui Briggs: She sounded like an amazing woman

Ruby Rose: She was the best


Vs Jax

Jax: I don't like children fighting in war

Ruby Rose: Your daughter's a fighter

Jax: She's not a minor


Jax: Sonya tells me you need more practice

Ruby Rose: My hand-to-hand is fine

Jax: Then drop the scythe and let's go


Ruby Rose: What happened to your arms?

Jax: Not a story you want to know

Ruby Rose: You don't need to baby me, Jax


Ruby Rose: You think Jacqui can beat Yang?

Jax: A superpowered tantrum can't beat military discipline

Ruby Rose: Yang can take it and dish out even more


Vs Liu Kang

Ruby Rose: So you're Earthrealm's champion?

Liu Kang: That is what many call me

Ruby Rose: Can I have your autograph afterwards?


Ruby Rose: You and Lie Ren would get along great

Liu Kang: He is also a skilled warrior?

Ruby Rose: And he's into the whole zen monk thing


Liu Kang: So this is Ruby Rose

Ruby Rose: Am I shorter than you expected?

Liu Kang: And much younger


Liu Kang: Mastering your body is essential for kombat

Ruby Rose: I can move faster than you can see

Liu Kang: Your skill doesn't match your speed


Vs Kung Lao

Ruby Rose: I like your hat

Kung Lao: It's but an accessory to my greatness

Ruby Rose: Your ego, not so much


Ruby Rose: I think you and Liu Kang are both awesome!

Kung Lao: Flattery doesn't work on me, Miss Rose

Ruby Rose: Because you've never gotten it?


Kung Lao: My hat against your scythe

Ruby Rose: Try not to cry when you lose, Kung Lao

Kung Lao: I won't be the one crying, Ruby


Kung Lao: Your weapon is gratuitously designed

Ruby Rose: Coming from the monk with the bladed hat?/It's pretty pass on Remnant

Kung Lao: I am not dependent on my weapon


Vs Kitana

Ruby Rose: So you're the queen of Outworld?

Kitana: I am its Kahn, child

Ruby Rose: As long as you're a friend


Ruby Rose: Earthrealm is just trying to help me go home

Kitana: How do I know you're not being used as soldiers?

Ruby Rose: We're not the ones starting a fight


Kitana: What is your quarry, young Huntress?

Ruby Rose: Grimm, bad guys, the usual suspects

Kitana: The latter is a very broad definition


Kitana: What kind of realm requires such brutal weaponry?

Ruby Rose: One focused on survival against countless monsters

Kitana: Take heed before you swing that blade here


Vs Jade

Jade: You do not belong here, Miss Rose

Ruby Rose: I'm not here to cause trouble, Jade

Jade: More disreputable groups will be looking for you


Jade: That scythe looks unwieldly

Ruby Rose: It's also a customisable, high-impact sniper rifle

Jade: A warrior's spirit is not determined by the steel they carry


Ruby Rose: So you and Kitana are 10,000 years old?

Jade: Edenians are long-lived, Ruby Rose

Ruby Rose: You must have seen a lot of great fights


Ruby Rose: I don't want to be caught up in another war

Jade: Then you best find your way home soon

Ruby Rose: There are people here who depend on me


Vs Raiden

Ruby Rose: Wait, you're an actual god?

Raiden: I am Earthrealm's protector

Ruby Rose: As long as you don't have a God Complex


Ruby Rose: We could use your help back on Remnant

Raiden: I cannot involve myself in your world's affairs

Ruby Rose: Our world's divided and about to be conquered


Raiden: Does every human on Remnant possess an Aura?

Ruby Rose: Every living thing with a soul, Raiden

Raiden: Such power could rival the Jinsei


Raiden: Salem seeks to destroy humanity?

Ruby Rose: She wants to tear us down so we'll live in fear of her

Raiden: Her evil must not spread beyond Remnant!


Vs Kotal Kahn

Ruby Rose: Remnant isn't a threat to Outworld

Kotal Kahn: These soulless beasts tell a different tale

Ruby Rose: The Grimm are drawn to negative emotions


Ruby Rose: You gave up your throne to Kitana?

Kotal Kahn: She earned it when she united Outworld

Ruby Rose: Remnant needs someone like you


Kotal Kahn: Your silver eyes can destroy these Grimm?

Ruby Rose: They're tied to my emotions and the people I love

Kotal Kahn: Then you require further instruction


Kotal Kahn: Why do you side with Earthrealm?

Ruby Rose: They've promised to help me get back to Remnant

Kotal Kahn: Do not follow others blindly, young Huntress


Vs Nightwolf

Nightwolf: You are also blessed by spirits

Ruby Rose: The Silver Eyed Warriors were created by the God of Light

Nightwolf: Your heart is pure but is your mind clear?


Nightwolf: Red petals revealed your location

Ruby Rose: It's just part of my Semblance

Nightwolf: Do not use your power as a crutch, Ruby


Ruby Rose: Could the Great Spirit help us return to Remnant?

Nightwolf: She guides only the Matoka

Ruby Rose: Was worth a try


Ruby Rose: What's it like, being Nightwolf?

Nightwolf: I am forever grateful to the Great Spirit

Ruby Rose: I would be too, after what you went through


Vs Sub Zero

Ruby Rose: You and Weiss have a lot in common

Sub-Zero: Your teammate's skill lies in Glyphs, not cryomancy

Ruby Rose: You both have matching scars


Ruby Rose: I hear you're one of this realm's greatest warriors

Sub-Zero: I am Grandmaster of the Lin Kuei

Ruby Rose: So, you must be a tough cookie


Sub-Zero: Your idealism is a double-edged sword

Ruby Rose: A Huntress fights for the people, Sub-Zero

Sub-Zero: But you cannot fight for all of them


Sub-Zero: You are too reliant on your weapon

Ruby Rose: I've survived this long, haven't I?

Sub-Zero: A true warrior must be versatile in kombat


Vs Scorpion

Scorpion: Your mother came to this realm once

Ruby Rose: Did she ever leave?

Scorpion: Alive but not unscathed


Scorpion: You remain hopeful after so much loss

Ruby Rose: If I just gave up, I would have never been able to move forward

Scorpion: Wise words, young Huntress


Ruby Rose: You and Yang sparred yet?

Scorpion: Her flames burn bright, but it is not hellfire

Ruby Rose: She kicked your ass, didn't she?


Ruby Rose: I've been tempted by vengeance as well

Scorpion: You have lost family?

Ruby Rose: And I know who's responsible


Vs Baraka

Ruby Rose: Do you eat people in the middle of a fight?

Baraka: Tarkatans savour the blood of their enemies!

Ruby Rose: You'll leave yourself open to getting killed


Ruby Rose: I've taken down bigger and badder things than you

Baraka: Without that scythe, you are a lamb amongst wolves

Ruby Rose: You won't gobble me up, Baraka


Baraka: My blades will rend your flesh

Ruby Rose: I'll shoot you down before you get near me

Baraka: You may try, human


Baraka: How do silver eyes taste?

Ruby Rose: I don't know, and neither will you

Baraka: I intend to find out


Vs Shao Kahn

Shao Kahn: You are a long way from home, Rose

Ruby Rose: I kill monsters wherever and whoever they are

Shao Kahn: Not this one, girl


Shao Kahn: You and your comrades will serve me

Ruby Rose: That's not going to happen, Shao Kahn

Shao Kahn: Your sister said those words to me


Ruby Rose: Wow, you're a step down from Salem

Shao Kahn: My power far surpasses hers

Ruby Rose: Face the facts, you're all washed up


Ruby Rose: I killed your war dogs

Shao Kahn: You will pay dearly for that, brat

Ruby Rose: I've had more trouble from Beowolves


Vs Shang Tsung

Shang Tsung: Such a simple, honest soul

Ruby Rose: Keep your hands to yourself, creep

Shang Tsung: It will prove invaluable to my collection


Shang Tsung: I can help you destroy Salem

Ruby Rose: I'm not desperate enough to gamble with my soul

Shang Tsung: What about your eyes, Miss Rose?


Ruby Rose: Stay away from Remnant, Shang Tsung

Shang Tsung: It has quite a fascinating aura

Ruby Rose: It will eat you alive if you're not careful


Ruby Rose: Why are you taking people from Remnant?

Shang Tsung: I seek to unlock its secrets

Ruby Rose: Prepare to be disappointed


Vs Sindel

Sindel: You will serve as my bodyguard

Ruby Rose: I'm not for sale, Sindel

Sindel: I want a slave, not a mercenary


Sindel: You are not welcome in this realm, child

Ruby Rose: I didn't come here by choice

Sindel: Flee or you shall be punished


Ruby Rose: I thought Cinder was bad

Sindel: She's pathetic, you're contemptable

Ruby Rose: And you're worse


Ruby Rose: Shao Kahn won't be able to take Remnant

Sindel: The Grimm are as pitiful as your meagre kingdoms

Ruby Rose: It's not them you should be worried about


Vs Kollector

Kollector: Your weapon is unique

Ruby Rose: Thanks but it's also mine

Kollector: Not for much longer


Kollector: Outworld will have all of Remnant's Dust

Ruby Rose: I know a few people who won't agree to that

Kollector: They will pay one way or another


Ruby Rose: So you have six arms?

Kollector: The Naknada are peerless craftsmen

Ruby Rose: And crazed kleptomaniacs


Ruby Rose: You tried stealing Weiss's Dust caches!

Kollector: These crystals are priceless

Ruby Rose: And will literally blow up in your face


Vs Kano:

Kano: Well, aren't you just precious?

Ruby Rose: Why do I always get the creepy guys?

Kano: Just trying to be friendly, love


Kano: Ever thought about joining the Black Dragon?

Ruby Rose: I became a Huntress to help people, not hurt them

Kano: School's out, Ruby


Ruby Rose: Go near Cassie or Jacqui, you lose your other eye

Kano: Who's to say you're keeping yours?

Ruby Rose: Come near me, you lose your head


Ruby Rose: Nice laser eye, Kano

Kano: You've got an eye for quality, girlie

Ruby Rose: It's the only thing about you I like


Vs Kabal

Kabal: You can't outrun me, Ruby

Ruby Rose: I can outgun you, Kabal

Kabal: All bets are off, then


Kabal: So you're from another planet?

Ruby Rose: I'm a licensed Huntress from Remnant

Kabal: That supposed to mean something here?


Ruby Rose: Think you're faster than me?

Kabal: I'd bet your life on it, Ruby

Ruby Rose: You're not as well-equipped though


Ruby Rose: Crescent Rose against your hook swords?

Kabal: You looking for a contest, Rose?

Ruby Rose: You seem more like a practice dummy


Vs D'Vorah

Ruby Rose: Seriously, you are disgusting

D'Vorah: The Kytinn feel like-minded about humans

Ruby Rose: We don't puke up larvae


Ruby Rose: Sending the Swarm against the Grimm is a terrible idea

D'Vorah: We will assimilate them, not eradicate them

Ruby Rose: Two bugs, one bullet, D'Vorah


D'Vorah: Kronika offers aid to Remnant

Ruby Rose: You're a terrible liar, D'Vorah

D'Vorah: And you are poor nourishment, Ruby Rose


D'Vorah: Your flesh will sustain the Hive

Ruby Rose: I've slaughtered hundreds like you

D'Vorah: The Swarm is numberless


Vs Erron Black

Erron Black: That's a hell of a piece, Miss Rose

Ruby Rose: And you're coming at me with those peashooters?

Erron Black: I'm putting you down with them


Erron Black: You're a wanted girl, Little Red

Ruby Rose: Wanted by Atlas or Outworld?

Erron Black: I bag you for whoever pays more


Ruby Rose: Who sent you after me?

Erron Black: Didn't ask, just waiting on my paycheck

Ruby Rose: You'll be bankrupt, Black


Ruby Rose: You related to Mercury Black?

Erron Black: I ain't a family man, missy

Ruby Rose: But you're both equally bad


Vs Skarlet

Ruby Rose: You're getting desperate, Skarlet

Skarlet: Your blood has an otherworldly flavour

Ruby Rose: Maybe because I'm not from around here


Ruby Rose: You tried to brainwash me!

Skarlet: The Blood Code would have imbued you with its power

Ruby Rose: And would've driven me insane


Skarlet: Are you huntress or hunted?

Ruby Rose: Ask again after this fight

Skarlet: Gladly


Skarlet: So young to have slain so many

Ruby Rose: I got this far, I can go further

Skarlet: How much blood is on your hands, I wonder?


Vs Noob Saibot

Noob: The Grimm will be mine to command

Ruby Rose: Don't think Salem will like that

Noob: She will be consumed by my shadows


Noob: Darkness awaits your world

Ruby Rose: I hear a lot of bark but no bite

Noob: You will feel it


Ruby Rose: My eyes don't work on you

Noob: I am not Grimm, I am Wraith!

Ruby Rose: I'll kill you either way


Ruby Rose: I don't have time for this, Bi-Han

Noob: I will enslave your soul

Ruby Rose: I've got bigger problems to deal with


Vs Frost

Frost: What makes you a great leader?

Ruby Rose: I give people reasons to follow me

Frost: You have none for me, Rose


Frost: The Lin Kuei will dominate Remnant!

Ruby Rose: Don't you have to be Grandmaster first?

Frost: Big mistake, Rose


Ruby Rose: Weiss on her worst day isn't as bad as you

Frost: That spoilt heiress pales to my skill

Ruby Rose: She'd splatter you, Frost


Ruby Rose: Heard you dropped out of the Lin Kuei

Frost: I outgrew Sub-Zero's platitudes

Ruby Rose: I don't respect people who spit on their teachers


Vs Geras

Ruby Rose: You're immortal as well?

Geras: Unlike Salem, my creator granted me my power

Ruby Rose: You'll need some tweaking after this fight


Ruby Rose: Do you know what happened to my mother?

Geras: Join Kronika and she will reveal her fate

Ruby Rose: Knew there were strings attached with this


Geras: Your mother fought well against me

Ruby Rose: What do you know, Geras?

Geras: That no victory came from her skill


Geras: Ozpin has left you ill-prepared

Ruby Rose: You know about him?

Geras: Remnant's history is but a brief chapter in time


Vs Cetrion

Cetrion: Your purity is a priceless virtue

Ruby Rose: Then why are you threatening me?

Cetrion: You compromise Mother's vision


Cetrion: The silver-eyed huntress

Ruby Rose: Also, the leader of team RWBY

Cetrion: Do not let pride fester into hubris, Ruby Rose


Ruby Rose: You remind me too much of Salem

Cetrion: She stole her power from the Brothers

Ruby Rose: You're stealing free will, just like her


Ruby Rose: Kronika will destroy everything, even you

Cetrion: Her efforts will balance the realms

Ruby Rose: By wiping out her creations and starting from scratch?


Vs Terminator

The Terminator: You come from a different earth?

Ruby Rose: I'm from Remnant

The Terminator: What is Remnant?


The Terminator: What is your weapon's manufacturer?

Ruby Rose: Crescent Rose is my baby

The Terminator: It will be studied after your termination


Ruby Rose: You one of Ironwood's new models?

The Terminator: No

Ruby Rose: Then I won't worry about destroying you


Ruby Rose: You'll help us fight Salem?

The Terminator: I have been reprogrammed to obey you

Ruby Rose: You'll need to be broken in first


Vs The Joker

The Joker: Ooh, I think I'm in love

Ruby Rose: You better be talking about Crescent Rose

The Joker: What a lovely name! I'll carve it on your corpse!


The Joker: My, Ruby, what a big scythe you have!

Ruby Rose: All the better to slice you up

The Joker: Now that's my girl!


Ruby Rose: You remind me a lot of Tyrian

The Joker: He's got the showmanship, but not the wit

Ruby Rose: Of course you nutjobs have met


Ruby Rose: What's with the make-up?

The Joker: I dress to impress, Little Miss Red Hood

Ruby Rose: Has it impressed anyone yet?


Vs Spawn

Ruby Rose: Nyx told me where to find you

Spawn: That supposed to make me trust you?

Ruby Rose: She's not trying to trick you and neither am I


Ruby Rose: You know anything about killing immortals?

Spawn: I've beaten God and the Devil, kid

Ruby Rose: Then, I've got a proposition for you


Spawn: You got a hard bite on you, kid

Ruby Rose: I bear my teeth if someone tries to mess with me

Spawn: You're still just an pup, Ruby


Spawn: You're a sitting duck without that scythe

Ruby Rose: That's rich coming from the walking armoury

Spawn: We can go bare-knuckles, if you have the balls


Vs Fujin

Fujin: Your mother came to this world long ago

Ruby Rose: Why was she here, Fujin?

Fujin: She sought allies to destroy Salem


Fujin: You cut through the air with abandon

Ruby Rose: My speed's one of my biggest advantages in a fight

Fujin: Unless you miss your mark, Ruby Rose


Ruby Rose: I've lost so many friends to war

Fujin: Yet you continue to advance forward

Ruby Rose: No one else is going to die while I'm standing


Ruby Rose: Have you been spending time with Yang, Fujin?

Fujin: She tried and failed to break the wind

Ruby Rose: That just sounds so wrong


Vs Sheeva

Sheeva: Your weapon appears cumbersome

Ruby Rose: Mind if I prove you wrong, Your Highness?

Sheeva: I welcome the challenge, little Huntress


Sheeva: You come from another world?

Ruby Rose: I'm still human, Queen Sheeva

Sheeva: No wonder you need such a ridiculous weapon


Ruby Rose: What's it like, having four arms?

Sheeva: It ensures victory against lesser opponents

Ruby Rose: Don't test me


Ruby Rose: We don't have anything like you on Remnant

Sheeva: And we do not have Grimm on Outworld

Ruby Rose: That could change if we're not careful


Vs Robocop

Robocop: Can you fly, Ruby?

Ruby Rose: I can try but not for long

Robocop: Interesting


Robocop: You are a licensed Huntress?

Ruby Rose: Just got my badge, Murphy

Robocop: Minors should not be forced into service


Ruby Rose: Heard Ironwood's handed you a warrant for us

Robocop: I answer to OCP, not Atlas

Ruby Rose: Better than the alternative, I guess


Ruby Rose: What kind of weapons you got on you?

Robocop: They are OCP property/These aren't toys, Ruby

Ruby Rose: Sorry, I'm big on weapons

I admit, the order in which I wrote these is odd and did end up creating a nebulous narrative of sorts but hope you enjoyed it. I did try to keep everyone in character and touch on characteristics that would naturally come between each interaction. Addendum: I've addded in mirror matches and non-MK character intros as well. Will continue to do the same with consequent chapters.

Next time: Weiss Schnee!
