Welcome everyone to my newest fanfiction. This will be following the Mortal Kombat 9 storyline with the addition of my OC of course and with that out of the way let's get started.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Mortal Kombat games

Outworld was usually a whirlwind of noise with the nearly constant war and bloodshed. In between that noise however was a deathly silence, a silence that promised violence would follow soon. Today however was different, today it was neither silence nor battle that filled the air of this world, but the cries of a newborn.

Cries that could be heard for miles in every direction, wails of fear and hunger that penetrated the silence of the surrounding area. These cries of course didn't go unnoticed, four demonic vultures began to circle the baby from above. Unfortunately, for the vultures the baby was not a defenseless as they believed, as the vultures dived down to feast on the child four muscular hands snatched the vultures out of the air.

Reaching out with two of its three fingered hands the being brought the baby closer to search for signs of injury. The child then looked up at it's rescuer. The being was female with dark coffee colored skin and black hair.

She stared down at this baby that could be no more than a few weeks old, the baby appeared to be male with a few small tufts of blood red hair with eyes to match. As she stared at the infants features it too stared up at her and began to laugh. This brought a smile to the women's face before she began to ponder what to do, the child seemed to have been abandoned and would most surely die if left alone.

As the child once again looked up at her and smiled the woman came to a decision. She would raise the child, he would be her son and she would make him strong. He would have a hard life no doubt. Being a two armed child in a village of those with four would be hard, but when the time came and he was strong enough such things would be an afterthought.

"I name you Cormac," The women declared, "And I promise my son someday you will be the strongest." Swore Sheeva of the Shokan.

And so end the prologue of The Crimson Demon of Outworld I know it's short but it is a prologue. I promise the next chapter will be much longer. Until the review, follow and favorite this story.
