Ok, I’m taking the old Mortal Kombat, and giving it a new twist, the story takes place through the eyes of 16-year old Kenji Ryu.

Here’s the story.

--

DOR Covert Military, Africa, 8:05 p.m

It was dark in the small room, the large screen gave off a light green glow, revealing the grim face of an old man. He wore a dark blue military uniform and black dress shoes.

“General Steel, I found the person you’ve been looking for.” A soldier appeared from the doorway. “I believe this person is the descendant.”

General Steel turned to the soldier. “What’s their name?”

The soldier replied. “Kenji Ryu, sir.”

Underground Fighting Arena, Japan, Same time

The room smelled of blood and sweat, a young brown haired boy was strapping on his black gloves and pulling up his white kickboxing pants, they had his favorite black flames at the bottom of the legs.

“Kenji, you’re up next.” A young red-haired girl holding a clip board and a pen peeked into the locker room. “You’ll be facing Rock.” She was about to leave when she turned to say. “Good luck, you’re going to need it.”

Kenji waited for the right moment.

The ring finally rung and the announcer said. “Our winner by technical knockout, Bryan Stone.” The crowd cheered and the announcer declared. “And our final match for tonight, first, our challenger, coming from London, with a record of 60 wins 0 losses, weighing in at 450 lbs., Jack “The ripper” Rock.” The crowd began to boo. The announcer continued. “And our reigning champion, with a record of 100 wins and 0 losses, weighing in at 210 lbs., Japans own, Kenji “The dragon” Ryu.” Everyone cheered.

Kenji stepped out of the locker room and into the crowd filled arena. He rolled into the ring.

Standing on the other side of the ring was a massive man, he wore yellow skin tight shorts that went down to his knees, his hands and feet were wrapped. The man was bald and had tribal tattoos on his whole head.

Kenji checked the wraps on his feet and posed ready to fight.

The large man smiled at the sight of Kenji. “I’m going to break you in half, little man.”

Kenji grinned. “Only if you can catch me.”

The bell rang, Kenji moved around the ring to his left, The large man swung hard with his right.

Kenji ducked and gave him a hard jab with his right, the mans jaw made a loud crunching sound.

Rock fell to the ground hard. Kenji stepped back to let him up.

Rock wiped the blood from his mouth. “You’re going to pay for that!”

Kenji grinned. “I’m shaking.”

Rock let out a loud roar and swung at Kenji with a deadly left. Kenji leaned back and let the fist swing over him.

“The funny thing about anger is…” Kenji dodged another punch. “Let it consume you…” He dodged a kick. “And you lose sight of everything.” He delivered a deadly roundhouse.

His kick landed across Rocks face.

Rock fell to the ground, he was knocked out.

The referee raised his hand.

The announcer declared. “The winner, and still the reigning champion, Kenji “The dragon” Ryu!”

The crowd went wild. Kenji couldn’t help but showoff, it was easy, just a few flying kicks and backflips, the crowd loves it.

After he finally got tired, Kenji headed back towards the locker room.

An old man dressed in a General’s uniform and a few well-dressed soldiers were waiting for him, along with a young red-haired lady.

Kenji unstrapped his gloves, he didn’t even see them.

The old man coughed. “Excuse me, sir, can you tell us where Kenji Ryu is?”

Kenji smiled. “What do you want him for?”

The man replied. “Sorry, it’s classified.”

Kenji nodded. “Classified, huh.” He threw his gloves into a small bag. “Sorry, I can’t tell you, it’s, shall we say ‘classified’.”

The man growled. “Boy, I don’t think you know just who we are, son.”

Kenji looked the group over. “I can tell you where Kenji is, if you tell me why you need him.”

The girl walked up to the man and whispered something in his ear.

The man nodded and said. “Alright, we are from the UN, we are from the DOR, the dimensional observation and reconnaissance.”

Kenji laughed. “Dimensional, what is that like portals and different worlds?”

The man replied. “Yes, there are many worlds, each connected to each other by portals, some are peaceful worlds, others are different, there are worlds bent on destruction and domination.” He paused then said. “We are a military unit who are in charge of making sure that these worlds don’t harm ours, we’ve been successful at stopping these worlds.”

Kenji nodded. “So what do you need Kenji for?”

“We have been successful at stopping all attacks, except for now.” The man paused again. “There’s a man, a monster, stronger than anybody we’ve encountered, and he’s gathering an army of soldiers to conquer this world.”

Kenji gave him a confused look. “Again, why do you need Kenji?”

The man continued. “This man is a descendant of an ancient evil known as Deagon, and we believe Kenji is a descendant of Taven, the brother of Deagon.”

Kenji laughed. “You expect me to believe all this crap!?” He pulled of his kickboxing pants and pulled on some baggy jeans. “Army of soldiers my ass.” He put on a black shirt and left.

The girl spoke up. “Kenji, have you ever wondered why you win all the time?”

Kenji stopped. “Because I know how to win.”

The man nodded. “Yes, but against the enemies you’ve faced, any other man would have lost.”

Kenji laughed again, hoisting the bag he was carrying over his shoulder. “Bye.” With that he left.

The girl looked at the man. “General, what do we do?”

“All we can do is wait.” The General sat down on the bench. “If we know who he is, so do they, then he’ll see the truth.”

Kenji walked out into the dark alleyway, his car was waiting for him, it was a dark black RX-7.

He threw his bag into the back seat, he noticed a group of men blocking alleyway.

The man were various shapes and sizes, but they all wore the same uniform. They wore no shirt, but their faces were covered by a black masked hood, they wore black kung-fu pants and ninja shoes.

Kenji wrinkled his brow. “What are you guys suppose to be?”

One of the men stepped forward. “Riku, descendant of Deagon, wants to meet with you, Kenji Ryu, descendant of Taven.”

Kenji laughed. “You freaks too.” He opened the driver side door. “Sorry, not interested.

“I’m afraid you don’t have a choice.” Came a deep voice behind him.

Kenji turned to see massive man standing there, he only wore small black underwear, but that’s not what freaked Kenji out.

This man was twice the size of any normal human, his skin was bright red and his hands were like that of a dragons, large wings sprouted from his back along with a massive pointed tail. This man was a demon.

“Holy crap!” Kenji muttered under his breath.

“See, our master really wants to meet you.” The demon smiled. “And he won’t take no for an answer.”
