Nursing the Kombatants/Kombatants with injuries or illness
Including Erron Black, Johnny Cage (both younger & older), Raiden, Bi-Han, Mileena and Kano.This is written with affection and there is angst amongst the comedy. I’ve put the Kano bit at the bottom so if you don’t like him you can ignore it. Erron Black: You’ve seen Monty Python and the Holy Grail? Erron is worse than the Black Knight. He’s taken you into the jungle near Kotal’s palaces. The lush foliage is full of exotic birds, flowers with delicate and alluring perfume that only stoke your desire to get to know Erron that bit better. It’s also full of terrifying beasts with too many teeth and claws, and whilst Erron manages to take down that… thing…. he doesn't come out unscathed. He’s spilling blood at an alarming rate, and he’s swaying on his feet, but “tis but a scratch” and “I’ve had worse”. You only manage to get him to sit his (magnificent) arse down and to let you tend to his (horrifying) wounds with the threat of taking away his hip flask. Luckily you’d packed your travel medikit and through sitting on his chest to stop him moving and several phials of superglue and all your steristrips, his leg is attached once again. Sort of. He insists on you kissing it better “but it’s your leg not your mouth” and then stupid idiot faints from shock (from the injury, your technique isn't that bad). Luckily Ermac has sensed something is wrong and appears with a small pack of servants and a litter to carry Erron back to the palace. 3 days after Erron has recovered he invites you back into the jungle. More kombatants after the cut!
