~Jade's P.O.V~

I did not understand what was wrong with Kitana's mind. Sew together a teddy bear to defeat Mileena? I was about to object but I saw a glimmer of hope in her eyes as she led me to the room.

"Fine Kitana, but be careful. I do not wish to come back and see my best friend ripped to shreds" I said and walked into the room. On top of that, why was Scorpion sent with me? He does not know how to sew, better yet control his anger.

"I want to leave out of here and join the fight" Scorpion muttered.

"I wish to as well, but Kitana's orders are clear. We must stay here until I finish sewing together this teddy bear, which you ripped up" I replied sewing back on the arm. I was halfway done. I just needed to reattach the eye and make sure all of the stuffing was inside of it.

"When I finish this, you are going to act like you love this bear. You better not rip one stitch out of it and you must give it directly to Mileena" I ordered, pushing some stuffing back inside of the neck.

"I would rather be executed on the spot" he growled. I darted my eyes toward him and he got the message.

"How long is this going to take?" he asked impatiently. I sighed heavily and turned my attention back on the needle.

"Because of your unnecessary anger, this will take more than needed" I snapped and accidently pricked my finger. Scorpion shook his head and began to sharpen his kunai.

~Kitana's P.O.V~

She was too fast for my bladed fans. I was so close to getting a good amount of blood shed from her inner thigh but she rolled under me and kicked me in my neck. I flew into the wall and rubbed my head. She still seemed too powerful even with being stripped from her powers. I watched Liu and Sonya run to attack her so I used the distraction to come in contact with Raiden and the others.

"Have you freed the Elder Gods yet?" I asked whispering. A loud thud ricocheted off the walls and I closed my eyes.

"I am afraid not Princess" Smoke answered.

"What is taking so long?" I asked and scooted over behind a pole.

"We have found the box, but we cannot open it" Kung Lao responded. I face palmed and sighed.

"Does it require a key of some sort?" I questioned. There was an awkward silence and small faint click sound was heard.

"Are they free now?" I asked quietly. I heard another thud and a groan. My wrist communicator that Sonya gave me lost signal and I sighed again.

"Why do you keep trying?" Mileena asked and picked up Liu Kang. She started to clamp her hands around his throat tightly. Rage fueled throughout my veins and I flung one of my fans at Mileena's hand. She winced in pain and dropped Liu Kang onto the ground.

"I thought you were supposed to be tough" Sonya commented and air kicked Mileena straight in the jaw. I calmed down and tended to Liu's neck.

"I am terribly sorry Liu" I whispered and massaged his neck. Sonya had been kicked in the air and now was bleeding from one of Mileena's sai lodged into her chest. My mouth opened and Sonya gave me a small smile.

"I'll be fine, just go and save us all" she said and crawled over to an empty spot. She pulled out the sai and threw it to me. Mileena pounced on me and caught her sai, the glanced down at me. She pulled me up by my ponytail and kicked me in my back. I had never felt so much pain in my life.

"So pretty…" she began and twisted my arm behind my back.

"So fair so sad and alone" she growled and stepped on my twisted arm. I hollered out in pain and she turned me over. I tried to grasp my fans but she plunged her sai in my knee. I inched away from her and tried desperately to pull the sai out. She swung around giggling and walked closer to me.

"My pretty sister, tell me, do those bruises match the blood on your perfect little face?" Mileena hissed. She was less than five feet away from me. I gripped onto the sai and cried out in agony as the bloody sai was finally out of my knee. She cackled and kicked me into the air, followed by her teleport kick. I was beaten badly and I was frustrated. I had it all planned out, but I just couldn't get her to stay still.

"You have always been jealous of me…" I whispered as another punch was landed onto my stomach.

"You had everything! The looks, the power, the attention and the love. What did I get in return?" she growled into my ear.

"You got what you didn't want. But now you are terrorizing citizens of Earthrealm and killing everyone. You are even trying to build a new realm" I scolded. She pulled my hair and traced my jawline with her sai.

"You lose sister" she replied icily. She kicked me across the room and I landed next to Sonya. She had covered her wound in gauze and was now frowning.

"Kitana, when does this plan actually start to work?" she asked.

"As soon as Jade and Scorpion come in" I answered as she wiped dripping blood from my knee. A crackle of lightning was heard and Raiden and the others arrived next to Mileena. The Elder Gods started to attack Mileena and I threw my last steel fan at them. The box shut tightly on them and Mileena was stuck to the wall.

"Kitana!" Jade yelled and threw the bear. I grabbed it and drug Scorpion with me.

"Your tainted blood will splatter on my razorang you witch!" Jade shouted and ran at Mileena. With every bit of anger inside of her she pulled out her staff and beat Mileena in the head with it. Once she was on the ground, she jumped onto Mileena's back and switched to her razorang. She glowed green and sliced Mileena's left side open like a piece of ham.

"Jade, that is enough" I said and began to get up. Jade was still in her rage trance. Blow after blow Mileena's body began to bruise and bleed. I shook my head and stood on Mileena's chest.

"Mileena, I never wanted to harm you. I actually never meant to hurt your feelings on our first encounter. I was just nervous and actually scared to see a version of me get up. But you are not a version of me, you are my sister. We have the same blood and I intend to watch over you" I started off. I helped her get up and held Jade and the others back.

"What I am trying to say is, we do not have to be rivals. Sure we have huge differences but I can learn to cope if you can. Don't be jealous of what I have. I didn't ask to be princess but I know it is a job that I must do." I continued and handed her back her sai.

"You do not need power and glory to be held at the highest respect. I know because that is what Shao Kahn believed and look where that got him. You do not need a pretty face to be loved as well Mileena. It is the beauty from the inside that counts. Take this bear for example. His eyes and burned, his nose is ripped, his arm was torn off, and his mouth is barely visible. He may not be the best sight to look at but he is very lovable like you" I concluded and handed Mileena the bear.

Her orange eyes widened in amazement and she looked down at the bear.

"I do not understand…" she trailed off.

"You are loved by many and I have spared you. I could have killed you but instead I felt that you had another side to you. A more lovable side that is hardly exposed because you seek approval from others instead of yourself. Now, if you want to just put this behind and help us restore all the realms, you would start to be favored by the weak and strong" I said and looked at her. Her orange eyes darted around everyone and she slowly nodded.

"You will not regret this. But first you must face the Elder Gods" Raiden said and teleported Mileena and I to them.

She has destroyed everything and other life forms, yet you ask us to spare her?

"Yes, she did not know what the consequences of what power was. She has agreed to help restore the realms" Kitana answered. Mileena nodded and clutched the teddy bear tightly.

"The power caught up in my head. I thought about all the years everyone treated me like shit and favored Kitana more. I could not help myself" Mileena admitted. Raiden tapped his chin and Kitana frowned.

"I really doubt that her fate should rest in the hands of Elder Gods who could not even get out of a box" Kitana snapped.

Very well then princess. She may stay with you in Edenia until she dies. But if she turns on you, both of you will never see the sun again.

"I think that is fair" Kitana replied and with a flash of lightning they were gone.

The wind blew around lightly as the warriors stared at the mess in front of them. Burning buildings, damaged cars, dead bodies, snapped trees, millions of holes and broken streetlights. Sonya turned to the sisters and saluted them as she and her CO walked back to their base. Now it was only twelve of them left as the sky turned to a light reddish orange. Jade walked up to Mileena and awkwardly cleared her throat.

"I am sorry about the events that occurred earlier" she spoke. Mileena nodded and put her sai in its holster.

"Well, there is no use in standing around here like a pack of frozen meat. If we want to even get halfway done before the police show up and question us, we must hurry" Smoke reminded.

"Smoke, Li Mei, Jax, Raiden, Sub-Zero, and NightWolf will clean up Earthrealm. Kung Lao, Liu Kang, Jade, Mileena, Scorpion and I will clean up Edenia" Kitana said. With that all of them began to work swiftly, slowly fixing everything the way it was.

Under the princess's feet, a bigger problem was occurring. With Mileena joining her sister, the Elder Gods reset everything except for the destruction in the realms. They figured that would be a fair enough punishment. Everything else was returned back to normal.

"She has been turned by the Princess" a voice whispered. The muscular war lord let out a small heavy laugh and slung his hammer over his shoulder.

"She still will always have a hint of jealousy running through her veins" he replied digging under the ground. He was now in Outworld and smiled madly.

"You are all powerful my lord" the wicked sorcerer replied.

"Of course, for I am Shao Kahn and no one can ever destroy me" he grunted.

"So what do we do about them?" Shang Tsung asked pointing at Mileena and the others. Shao Kahn laughed and looked in his mirror.

"Let them rebuild their silly realms, I want them to look the best they can when I take them all" Shao Kahn ordered. Quan Chi walked over to the two and bowed his head.

"It is done" he replied and motioned to Sindel. She stood with her hands on her hips and narrowed her eyes.

"Bring me my daughters, I request to have a word with them" she demanded.
