Cyborg: Archer. How's the move coming along?
Me: Well, my family and I got most of our stuff in the storage and we just checked into our hotel.
Obi-Wan: Well, we hope you get back soon.
Me: I will, Kenobi. Oh, before I forget, I have a whole new story idea. I'm about to get started on it whenever I could.
Daisy: That sounds cool.
Kenny: I totally agree.
Mason: Same here. I guess we better get going now.
Me: Of course. I'll see you guys when I get back. *Everyone starts to leave. Daisy turns to face me and winks at me* Even while I'm gone this long, some things never change. You readers enjoy this chapter. *call ends*

Kombat in the Kingdom
Chapter 1: Awakening
In a coliseum under a blazing sun, a ninja clad in yellow with chalk white eyes and twin swords on his back and a kunai attached to his belt was fighting another ninja clad in blue with a dragon medallion on the right side of his chest. The yellow clad ninja threw his kunai at the blue ninja, but he formed an ice sword in his hand and deflected it. He froze the yellow ninja and kicked him right onto his back. He turns his head to face Emperor Shao Kahn, who wore a skull-like helmet, spiked shoulder pads with similar knee pads and gauntlets, and a skull medallion embedded in intersecting straps across his chest.
"What are you waiting for? Finish Him!" Shao Kahn shouted. The blue-clad ninja created another sword and raised it into the air. Before he dealt the finishing blow, there was a blinding light. When the light faded away, the yellow-clad ninja had vanished.
"What?" The blue-clad ninja complained.
"What just happened?" Shao Kahn asked. The blue ninja became angry with this and left the coliseum. The yellow ninja woke up and finds that he was in a forest. He was weak from his injuries and before he passed out, he saw a small figure approach him.
Hours later…
"Are you sure you saw him in the forest?" a voice asked.
"I'm telling you, he was badly wounded. I wanted to get to school, but I can't just abandon him." Another voice answered. That voice sounded female.
"From the looks of his injuries, it seems you did the right thing bringing him here." The first voice said. Then, the yellow ninja woke up with a groan. The two people turn around to see him wake up. He turns his head to see two people. The first was a grown man wearing a white overcoat over a green polo shirt with a single yellow stripe and tan pants. The other was a 7-year-old girl with auburn hair wearing a pearl-lined lavender gown and a bright purple amulet with a white border.
"Wh-what happened?" the yellow ninja asked.
"Well, you were in the forest with some very bad injuries. You were lucky this young princess here found you and brought you here." The man said. The yellow ninja got up and bowed to the young girl.
"It is a privilege to meet you, princess. I am Hanzo Hasashi of the Shirai Ryu clan, but I am better known as Scorpion." Scorpion introduced himself as he stood up.
"I'm pleased to meet you too, Scorpion. My name is Sofia." Sofia introduced herself.
"And I am Riley Santos, her royal doctor." Dr. Santos introduced himself. "What we want to ask you, Scorpion, is how did you come to Enchancia?"
"Enchancia? That's what this place is called?" Scorpion asked, looking around. Dr. Santos and Sofia nod. Scorpion reached into his back and finds that his swords were gone. "Where are my swords?!"
"Oh, yeah. Your swords are in the armory." Dr. Santos answered.
"Take me there, now." Scorpion demanded.
"I'll take you there." Sofia said. Scorpion followed Sofia to the armory and finds his twin swords on a nearby table. He takes his swords and holsters them on his back. When he did, there was an explosion and dust flew down on them.
"What was that?!" Scorpion asked.
"The kingdom's under attack." Sofia said. She and Scorpion look outside and they find a group of knights approach the castle with cannons.
"Are those your knights?" Scorpion asked.
"No, they were sent from our rival kingdom." Sofia answered with a shake of her head. Then, Sofia's stepfather, King Roland II, stepped outside and approached the general of the hostile army.
"Stop this right now." King Roland demanded. Then, a knight shot him in the arm with his rifle.
"Dad!" Sofia screamed. Upon seeing that, Scorpion was angry. He leapt out of the window, took out his swords and driven one of them into the wall to slow his descent. King Roland slowly got up and glared at the general.
"Is this any way to greet another king?!" King Roland asked. "I demand that you leave my kingdom now!" Then, he was shot in the left leg. He kneels in pain.
"To Hell with your kingdom!" The general shouted as he pulled out a cutlass sword. He swings it at Roland, only to find it parried by two other blades. He finds that his attack was blocked by Scorpion.

"No… To Hell with YOU!" Scorpion shouted as he pushed him off of his horse. The knights charged at Scorpion, but he was prepared for this. Scorpion charged at the army of knights and slashed down four of them with his swords. The knights pull out their own swords and fight the ninja. Two knights try to strike Scorpion, but he jumps into the air and kicks one of them in the head and stabs the other in the back. Four more surround him from all sides. Scorpion anticipates this and pulls out his kunai. It engulfs in flames and he spins it all around him, slashing the knights surrounding him. Another knight sneaks up behind him with a sword, but without looking, Scorpion stabbed him in the chest. After about twenty minutes, all of the knights, except for the general, were dead.
"W-w-what are you?" The general asked.
"Your worst nightmare." Scorpion answered. The general started to run from him, but Scorpion threw his kunai and it was driven into his back. "Come here!" He pulls the chain connected to the grip and the general was pulled towards him. Scorpion grabs his neck.
"W-w-what are you going to do to me?" The general asked in fear.
"Why are you attacking this kingdom?" Scorpion asked threateningly.
"Look, it wasn't my idea. He was the one who pulled the strings on this attack." The general confessed.
"Who?" Scorpion asked.
"We don't know. It was someone wearing a blue outfit and he had this strange medallion on him." The general answered in a panicked tone. Scorpion then recaps the events that occurred before being transported to the kingdom.
"That's all I need to hear from you." Scorpion said as he snapped his neck with his own hand and dropped him. Sofia came outside in time to see Scorpion with the entire army's lifeless bodies surrounding him.
"Unbelievable. He took down the entire army all on his own." Sofia said in surprise as Scorpion helped King Roland to his feet.
"That was amazing. Who are you?" King Roland asked.
"I am known by a lot of names, but you may only call me Scorpion." Scorpion said as he sheathed his swords.
"Well, Scorpion, I'd normally throw people in the dungeon for acts like that, but since you saved my kingdom, I'll make an exception." King Roland said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Scorpion said with a bow.
*Sofia, Amber, Kevin, and Derek are in the studio's game room playing doubles table tennis. The door opens and two familiar faces walk in with an unfamiliar one.*
?: Excuse us. Is there anyone by the name Ghost Archer here?
Kevin: He's gone right now, but he'll be…
*They look at them and see that it was Liu Kang and Raiden with a ninja clad in blue*
Sofia: Liu Kang and Raiden?
Derek: What are you two doing here and who is that?
Raiden: Everyone, The ninja with us is Sub-Zero.
Kevin: That helps with one question, but that doesn't answer the other one.
Me: *appears on-screen* I invited them.
Amber: You did?
Me: That's right, Amber. You remember when Lindsey and Vanellope were kidnapped?
Amber: Oh yeah.
