Scorpion

Scorpion, originally known as Hanzo Hasashi, is an undead ninja who has spent years fighting in the various Mortal Kombat tournaments for varying sides and factions, and to further his own goals. Once a proud member of the Shirai Ryu, Scorpion's life was destroyed when he was brutally murdered in battle by the Lin Kuei ninja Bi-Han, shortly before the Sorcerer Quan Chi murdered the Shirai Ryu, fooling Hasashi into believing that the Lin Kuei were responsible for the deaths of Scorpion's family and friends. Now a hellish spectre seeking vengeance for these perceived transgressions, Scorpion enters the Mortal Kombat tournament to fight Bi-Han, now calling himself Sub-Zero- defeating and killing him in single combat, before exiting the tournament. Shortly afterwards, during the second tournament, Scorpion heard tales of a new Sub-Zero having entered to fight and avenge his fallen brother. Scorpion realized the true identity of this new Sub-Zero early in the tournament, and vowed to protect the young Lin Kuei ninja in secret, as atonement for slaying his kin.

Scorpion's spectral form would be set free to roam Earthrealm after Shao Khan began his invasion of the Earth, where his presence was considered a wild card and a threat to both sides, as no one knew where the Ninja's loyalties truly lied. At first, Shao Khan recruited Scorpion to aid him, but when he discovered Sub-Zero was a member of the Earthrealm defenders, the ninja turned on the Emperor and aided Raiden and his defenders defeat Khan's armies. Khan's defeat, however, forced Scorpion to return to the Netherealm once again. During this time, Scorpion discovered that Quan Chi was responsible for the murder of his family, and he spent years brutalizing and torturing the sorcerer for his crimes and for manipulating him to kill Sub-Zero. Quan Chi was able to survive and escape to form the Deadly Alliance, though Scorpion continued to hound the Sorcerer. Before Scorpion could take his final vengeance, Quan Chi's Oni allies brutally beat him and threw him into the Soulnado, where it was believed he would finally cease to exist.

Inside the Souldando, Scorpion encountered the Elder Gods, and witnessed the Dragon King Onaga's rise, as well as Raiden's sacrifice. The Elder Gods enhanced Scorpion's power and returned him to the world as their champion, so that he could stop Onaga, and in return, the Gods promised to revive Scorpion's clan and family. After Onaga was killed, the Elder Gods upheld their end of the bargain- but resurrected the Shirai Ryu as hellspawn like Scorpion, causing the ninja to rage. Before Scorpion could truly take any vengeance against the Gods, the events of Armageddon occurred, and Raiden created a new, alternate timeline.

Battle vs. Sasuke Uchiha and Garaa with Sub-Zero (by Codgod13
Sub-zero and Scorion have just approached each other and are about to duel, when Scorpion feels something speeding toward him, and teleports away, just as a huge amount of sand pellets pulverize the ground where h just was. As Scorpion teleports to the other side of the field, he and Sub-zero see Sasuke and Gaara standing on a ledge. Scorpion yells in anger, unleashes a stream of hellfire at the two shinobi. Sasuke leaps away, and Gaara uses sand to move himself. Scorpion teleports directly behind Gaara and strikes at him with his Ninjato, but sand automatically block his strike. Scorpion starts trying to barrage through Gaara's shield, the two slowly move away from Sasuke and Sub-zero.

Sub Zero creates an ice nugget, and rops it over Sasuke, but he dodges, and uses Phoenix fire jutsu to send a storm of fire balls at Sub-Zero, who creates an Ice Clone in front of him. Whenever, a fireball hits it, t turns to ice and sticks to the clone. Sasuke says, "hmm, ice clones? Never heard of them. Some hidden jutsu? Maybe I'll torture it out of you once I beat you." and rushes Sub-zero. The ice ninja summon the Kori blade and the two begin to duel. Eventually, Sub-zero gets the upper hand and disarms Sasuke, the latter teleporting back about a hundred feet, and begins chargin up a chidori. As Sub zero stabs at Sasuke, he ducks the weapon, and sends his chidori into Sub-zero's stomach, ripping clean through it. Sub-zero collapses to his knees, and Sasuke retrieves his sword by teleporting back and forth. He smiles, says, "Looks like I'm strong enough without Ice clones," and beheads Sub-zero.

Meanwhile...

Scorpion is sill trying to break through Gaara's defenses but can't, and is too fast for Gaara to get a clean shot. Finally, Scorpion is stationary enough for Gaara to trap him with some sand, Scorion is rooted to the floor by the sand. Gaara smiles and summons the Shukaku spear. Scorpion replies, "Well if that's how you want to play, then block this!" He releases an amount of hellfire big enough to barbecue two football fields. Gaara needs to recall every ounce of sand to protect him from the might attack, and us forced to use lots of precious chakra. Scorpion sees and opening and fires his rope dart, but the sand has recovered enough to block the strike, and Scorpion has left himself open as sand wraps around his ankles, curling up his body. Gaara use every bit of sand to focus on crushing scorpion, and he yells "SAND BURIAL!!" with enough force to shatter carbon steel. Just then, he feels a cold pain in his neck, and his last realization was that Scorpion had teleported from within the sand, and before he had time to recover, stabbed him in the neck. Scorpion smiles in victory, and goes to find Sasuke.

As he is walking, he arrives just in time to hear sasuke say he doesn't need ice clones, and he feels anger that Sasuke was to kill Sub-zero, and not him. He yells, alerting Sasuke. Both warriors unleash their fire, Sasuke's magically created fire standing no chance against hellfire, he teleports behind Scorpion, but Scorpion had already teleported to where he though Sasuke was. Realizing teleporting is pointless, Scorpion blasts his rope dart and Sasuke dodges, grabbing the rope, and pulling Scorpion toward his katana. Scorpion dodges and slashes Sasuke's hand with a ninjato, then teleports away. Sasuke smiles to himself, and yells, "You just signed your own death warrant! SUMMONING JUTSU! GIANT SNAKE!" A snake as long as the willis tower is tall appears under Sasuke, and as Scorpion appears, he is shocked by the beast, giving it time to strike. Scorpion snarls and leaps to the side, launching his rope dart at Sasuke who is temporarily blinded by the rise in dirt, is impaled. Scrpion twists his hand and launches Sasuke into the sky. With a savage crack, he lands, and Scorpion stabs him again just to make sure.

Scorpion decides to expand his power and take over other realms, starting with the dream realm. Quan chi opens a portal for Scorpion(against his will) and Scorpion emediatly finds himself in an old boiler room. There is a loud and menecing laugh echoing through the realm. As Scorpion looks up, he spies a hatted figure with a clawed glove. It was the dream realms current ruler Freddy Krueger. "So you want my realm eh?" Freddy says with a sinister grin. "Surrender or I'll take it." replies Scorpion with his sword out. Freddy lunges at Scorpion ready to slash him with his clawed glove. Scorpion quickly cuts off his arm. Freddy relieces what seems to be a yell of pain, but quickly, right before Scorpion's eyes Freddy's arm grows right back. Scopion attempts to slash at Freddy again, but Freddy quickly grabs his sword and knocks it out of his hand. Freddy then summons hellspikes which knock Scorpion back, but dosen't impale him. Scorpion then lashes out his spear which hits dead center in Freddy's chest. "GET OVER HERE!" Scorpion yells as his yanks Freddy in. Immediatly Scorpion engages in hand to hand combat, punching Freddy multiple times before kicking him over. Freddy shakes it off and tosses his glove at Scorpion. Scorpion catches it before the glove hits him in the face. The glove then disapears and reappears on Freddy's hand.

Suddenly Scorpion's spear comes through the portol and latches on to Freddy. "GET THE....OVER HERE" Scorpion yells angrily. He then pulls Freddy directly out of the dream realm. While Freddy tries to shake of the pain, Scorpion yet again engages in hand to hand combat. Freddy again shakes it of and begins swinging his glove at Scorpion. Scorpion then takes out his second sword and manages to cut Freddy's gloved hand off. He then slashes Freddy in the shoulder, making him get on his knees.

Battle vs. Dark Prince (by JWarrior89)
Somewhere in Babylon, the Prince of Persia makes his way through the besieged city, leaping from rooftop to rooftop, running along walls, and slaying any of the Vizier's Sand Soldiers he comes across. As he runs across the roof of a building, he sees a flash out of the corner of his eye. He stops and looks up. A man dressed in yellow, with two swords on his back, is staring at him from the rooftop above him. "What... who are you!?" the Prince calls out.

Scorpion doesn't answer, but assumes a fighting stance. Knowing where this is going, the Prince steps forward, but a sudden pain in his left arm causes him to stop. With a cry of pain, he transforms into the Dark Prince. He looks up at Scorpion, who narrows his eyes. Without warning, Scorpion vanishes in another flash of light, reappearing in front of the Dark Prince.

"Get over here!" He yells, launching his spear at him. The Dark Prince, however, manages to roll out of the way, and starts to twirl his Daggertail Chain above his head. He then swings it at Scorpion's head, but Scorpion ducks to avoid the blow. The Dark Prince then swings at Scorpion's legs, but he backflips out of the way.

Scorpion suddenly teleports behind the Dark Prince, proceeding to punch him several times, then kick him to the floor. Looking up, the Dark Prince sees Scorpion remove his mask, revealing nothing but a skull. He barely manages to roll out of the way of Scorpion's flame breath. He quickly gets to his feet and runs, Scorpion still attempting to roast him. The Dark Prince runs up a wall and backflips over the fire stream; as he lands, he whips the Daggertail around Scorpion's legs, tripping him up and sending him to the floor.

The Dark Prince runs forward and stabs at Scorpion with the Dagger of Time, but Scorpion intercepts the blow and flips the Dark Prince behind him. Both warriors get to their feet, Scorpion putting his mask back on. He draws his twin swords, as the Dark Prince readies his Dagger.

Scorpion lunges forward, swinging his blades. The Dark Prince dodges several blows, parrys another with the Dagger, and then grabs Scorpion's outstretched arm, stabbing it. Scorpion yells in pain, dropping his sword. The Dark Prince withdraws the Dagger and roundhouse kicks Scorpion in the face.

Scorpion stumbles backward, but quickly recovers, raising his remaining sword. The two fighters circle each other, eyes locked, each waiting for the other to make a move. The Dark Prince suddenly grins; before Scorpion can react, he activates the Dagger of Time. Time slows to a crawl, as well as Scorpion. The Dark Prince, however, is unaffected; taking advntage of this opportunity, he runs forward and begins slashing Scorpion from all sides.

After a few seconds, the time flow returns to normal, and Scorpion, immediately feeling the pain from his injuries, drops to his knees with a cry of pain. The Dark Prince approaches Scorpion from behind, and wraps the Daggertail around his neck. Placing his foot on Scorpion's back, he pushes forward, while pulling back on his neck with the Daggertail.

Scorpion struggles to pull the chain off, but he is too weak from his wounds. With a savage yell, the Dark Prince rips Scorpion's head off, his body falling to the floor with a soft thud. The Dark Prince raises the Dagger of Time in the air and yells in victory.

Winner: The Dark Prince.

Meanwhile in an abandoned construction site Japan Team leader Kyo Kusanagi is doing his daily training in preparation of the next King of Fighters tournament. “I only go two weeks left, I have to give it my all.” Kyo said to himself, then a flash of light struck the ground before him. “What the?” the young fighter said in awe, suddenly the spectre ninja Scorpion appears before the young man. Scorpion looked at the new location in confusion “No, not now! I almost had him! He was in my hand and now he’s gone!” Scorpion said while tightening his fist in anger, he then turns around only to face Kyo. “You! You did this!” Scorpion said, pointing his finger at the young fighter. “Who me?” Kyo said pointing at himself. “I didn’t do anything if that’s what you’re thinking?” Kyo said, trying to reason with the spectre ninja. “Silence! I heard enough, prepare yourself sorcerer for Mortal Kombat.” Scorpion said, getting into his battle stance. Realizing that the ninja wants to rip him, Kyo still wants to reason with him “Listen we don’t have t-“ Kyo stop at mid sentence when he felt something hit his shoulder, he looked to see Scorpion’s bloody spear lodged in his shoulder blade; “Get over here!” The spectre ninja said, then forcefully tugs his spear.

Kyo then falls onto the ground

“Ugh, now that was cheap move.” Kyo said while getting up. “Come and fight me, your punishment isn’t over yet.” Scorpion said as he walking towards his opponent, Kyo then looks at the ninja with anger in his eyes. “Okay if that’s what you want then I won’t hold back, so bring it!” Kyo said with excitement. The young fighter then charges at the spectre ninja and lands a punch in Scorpion’s face, but the demon ninja disappears before the fighter’s very eyes. Confused, Kyo looks around to find his opponent “Over here!” a voice said behind him. Kyo turns around only to get elbowed in the face by Scorpion, the spectre ninja then knees the fighter in the stomach causing the fighter to spurt blood, and then disappears before the Kyo’s eyes again. “ Dammit where did you go!” Kyo said in anger as he searches for the ninja. “I’m right before you fool!” a voice said, suddenly Scorpion appears in front of the Kusanagi heir. Before Kyo could do anything Scorpion lands an uppercut in his chin sending him flying up in the air, Scorpion then teleports above the flying fighter and is about land an overhead slam; Kyo looks above to see Scorpion about to land a blow “Not this time, Shiki:Oniyaki!” Kyo slams his fist into Scorpion’s chin, then a swirl of flames appears to heighten the damage, Kyo then rolls around and does an axel kick that hurls Scorpion into the ground.

“Don’t tell me that you gave up?” Kyo said as he lands on the ground. “ Don’t underestimate me! This fight is far from over.” Scorpion said getting up. “Now get over here!” Scorpion then unleashes his bloody spear at Kyo, but Kyo grabs the spear before it latched onto his body. “That trick won’t work again.” Kyo said, he then sets the spear aflame. Realizing what happen Scorpion removes the spear away from his body “Damn you!” Scorpion hissed. “Come on let our fist do the talking!” Kyo said as he set his body aflame. Scorpion charges at Kyo and trys to punch him in the face, but Kyo blocks it and lands an open headed strike in the chest; Scorpion strikes back with a punch in the stomach, followed by a roundhouse kick to the face which causes the young fighter to stagger back. Kyo then punches Scorpion in the face, in which Scorpion counters with a kick in the chest, Kyo then does an overhand strike in face again which causes his mask to be caught on fire. Scorpion quickly takes off his mask to reveal his skull face. “What the hell.” Kyo said in disgust. “ You have seen my true identity, now you must die!” Scorpion said, then he blows out flames from his mouth, Kyo dodges the attack in an instance. ”Fire with fire eh? Okay then Shiki: Yami Bari!” Kyo then fires a projectile at the spectre ninja in which Scorpion counters with a fire blast, causing a huge explosion to occur that sends both fighters to be knocked down. Scorpion gets up after the explosion, he then looks around and finds that his opponent is nowhere in sight. “Pathetic weakling.” Scorpion said then walks away from the scene. “Who said the fight is over skull-face?” a voice said from behind. Scorpion turns around and sees Kyo walking out from the flames. “This fight is far from over Shiki:Aragami!” Kyo then punches scorpion in the stomach, followed by one in the chest, then an elbow in the face, and finally an uppercut on the chin that sets off an explosion within his fist to heighten the damage. Kyo then charges something in his hand “Final blow Shiki:Orochinagi!” Kyo then lets off a burst of flames within his hand. “Gruagh!” Scorpion screamed as his body is covered in flames, the mighty ninja then falls on the ground. “Man, that was some training.” Kyo said as he wipes the blood from his forehead. “You don’t mean to think that I lost did you?” Scorpion said as the burning ninja begins rise from the ground. “No way! How can you survive an attack like that !?” Kyo said in shock. “ Gah ha ha ha! Please the flames from the Netherrealm would give me pause than these flaky ashes.” Scorpion said pridefully. “Now face my wrath sorcerer, rise my fallen brothers!” Scorpion then raises his hands up in the air; suddenly members of the fallen Shirai-Ryu clan began to rise from the grave and grab Kyo Kusanagi. “ What the hell is going on? I can’t move!” Kyo said trying to set himself free. Scorpion then walks up to his captured enemy “ Now sorcerer, as a hindrance to the vengeance of my clan, your punishment is death!” Scorpion said, then turns around “FINISH HIM!” Scorpion yells after he puts his thumb down. “ Noooooo!” were Kyo’s last words, as he is ripped apart by the undead ninja clan. Scorpion then clenches his fist…

“Soon you’ll be mine Sub-Zero, no… not Sub-Zero Noob Saibot.”
