An Outworld Story
Chapter 1	By: James Tucker
*Kitana and Mileena came out of their rooms, which were adjacent to each other in the enormous stone hallway of Shao Kahn's dark castle. They met in the middle of the hallway and walked together toward the throne room* Kitana: What could Kahn possibly want? We received our weekly beating yesterday. Mileena: For the millionth time, he is our father! Call him by his rightful title! *The twins were both in their nightgowns, which were identical except that Kitana's was blue and Mileena's was pink. Their entire wardrobes were exactly the same, but one always wore blue and the other pink. Mileena was not wearing her ninja mask, showing her sharp, crooked fangs, while Kitana stood in flawless beauty.* Kitana: That evil being is not my father. Mileena: You are heir to the throne, you selfish little bitch!! You cannot be a good queen if you deny your relation to the royal family! You are stupid, weak, and pathetic! You make me sick. Remind me to take my own life when you become queen. This realm and all its territories will go to nothing. Kitana: I do not wish to be queen of this ruin. Mileena: (stops before the doors) You are boring. Let's go see what Daddy wants. Guard 1: (emerges from the doors) The Emperor wishes to see you. Mileena: No shit, you horse's ass! We did not travel across the palace in our nightgowns just to admire the doorknobs. Kitana: True, but they are quite attractive. Mileena: (stares at her sister in disgust, then walks into the throne room, followed by Kitana) Shao Kahn: Good morning, girls. Please be seated. Kitana: We would rather stand. Mileena: Speak for yourself! (sits in a velvet-cushioned chair before the throne while a slave fans her with a leaf) Kitana: (shakes her head) Just tell us why you called us here. I would like to rest, so that I may keep my beauty. Shao Kahn: Sleep you need not, my beautiful child. Kitana: I am not your child. I remember my true parents, who gave me the beauty that you could never give to a child! Shao Kahn: Do not test me, Kitana. I am in a rather merry mood and would like to stay that way. Mileena: (shoves a blueberry muffin in her mouth) Get to the point. Shao Kahn: Yes, I have a very special mission for you girls. Kitana: A Mission? Mileena: You're sending US on a mission? Why not Scorpion or Shang Tsung? Shao Kahn: You're almost 5, 997 years old and I think it's time you two started to work. You can't stay cooped up in this palace forever. Mileena: (grabs her 7th muffin) Why not? Shao Kahn: As much as I enjoy pampering you, I cannot allow you to waste yourselves. You will amount to nothing if you sit around and eat muffins for the rest of your lives. Mileena: I'll amount to a big, fat Mileena. What's wrong with that? Shao Kahn: You have so much potential and I cannot allow you to waste it. Kitana: What does Sindel think of this? Shao Kahn: It was your mother, the queen Sindel who suggested this mission. Kitana: What is our task? Shao Kahn: I am sending you both to the realm of Tropiconia to retrieve the gold medallion of Saphron. Mileena: (uses her right hand to dispense orange juice and the left to stuff muffins in her mouth) What does this medallion thingie do? Shao Kahn: The gold medallion of Saphron will grant me the ability to demolish entire realms while I wear it. Kitana: I will not pick my way through an island of thick jungle for a piece of jewelry that will help you kill people. Shao Kahn: You have no choice. This is mandatory. Kitana: What will you do if I refuse? Shao Kahn: (picks up a feather and waves it in front of his face) I shall tickle you until you explode. Mileena: (shakes her head) Not a pleasant way to die. Kitana: That is impossible! Shao Kahn: Remember that prisoner from Tilion Valley who made that obnoxious comment about my loincloth? (traces the feather across his neck) Tickle Combustion. Kitana: I do not believe it. Mileena: You've seen people breathe fire and spit acid, why not? Kitana: When do we leave? Shao Kahn: You shall depart tomorrow. Mileena: You can depend on us, Daddy. (stuffs her mouth and pockets with as many muffins as she can) Shao Kahn: You are dismissed. Start packing and for Elder Gods' sake, Mileena, do cover that hideous mouth of yours. *The twins leave. Mileena's head is bowed in shame.* Kitana: Are you alright? Mileena: Leave me alone. Kitana: That was quite rude of him. Mileena: I am sick of hiding behind that damn mask. (covers her face with her long, black hair) Kitana: I am going to pack. Just to let you know, I do not mind your teeth. Mileena: Shut up. (slams her door)
