Scorpion vs Sekiro

We begin on a shot of a compound, the Shirai Ryu clan, at night. Guardsmen patrol in watchtowers over the area. Suddenly, a figure, as quiet as a shadow, makes his way stealthily towards one of the towers. The figure, Sekiro, shoots out his prosthetic hand and climbs up the tower. He quickly dispatches of the guards inside, before glancing out the window. There is a wall encircling the Compound, with more guards patrolling.

Sekiro leaps from the tower, landing on one of the guards, simultaneously stabbing into his spine, killing him instantly and quietly. Sekiro begins to sneak towards another guard, when he senses something. Reaching out his prosthetic hand, he catches a kunai on a chain that had been launched towards him

Sekiro is pulled off the wall and across the compound, landing at the feet of Scorpion

Scorpion: Explain your trespass, or I will turn you to ash.

Sekiro: This clan has captured the divine heir, and I will release him.

Scorpion: we have our reasons for taking the child. Leave now, and your life will be spared.

Sekiro unsheathes his blade

Sekiro: I cannot accept that.

Scorpion: so be it. FIGHT!

Sekiro slashes at Scorpion, who dodges and retaliates with a punch to the jaw. Scorpion lands several unarmed strikes, ending the combo with a uppercut that sends Sekiro upwards. Toasty! Sekiro shoots out his prosthetic hand, grabbing onto the roof of a tower and zooming up to it

Sekiro catches his breath for a moment and eats a few pellets to heal himself. He would need to wait until this enemy had lost track of him, then attack from the shadows. Suddenly, the roof next to Sekiro begins to Crack and burn, as Scorpion bursts out, ready to resume battle

Scorpion swipes at Sekiro, who dodges and hurls a fistful of ash into his eyes. Sekiro goes for a stab with his Shinobi Lance, striking him in the chest. Scorpion instinctively grabs the Lance and sets it on fire, causing Sekiro to flee. Scorpion finally removes the ash from his eyes, and looks around

Scorpion: your strategy is nothing more than cheap tricks and cowardly hiding. You disrespect the colors you wear with your worthlessness!

Sekiro hides again, waiting for an opportunity to strike. He cautiously blows his Reed whistle, and Scorpion jumps down on the ground, searching for the source of the sound.

Scorpion: hide all you like! Your tricks will never overwhelm a true Shirai Ryu warrior!

As Scorpion turns away from Sekiro’s hiding spot, the hidden shinobi strikes. Sekiro leaps from his spot and buries a loaded axe in Scorpions shoulder.

Sekiro: No trick or deception is cowardly, as long as it ensures victory!

Scorpion turns, the axe still embedded in his shoulder, and draws his katana. He swipes at Sekiro, who blocks with his own blade. Sekiro shoots out his grappling hand and zooms away, toward a nearby tower.

Scorpion: You shall not escape my sight again!

while Sekiro is travelling towards the tower, Scorpion teleports next to him, grabbing onto his leg. Sekiro let’s go with his grapple hand and grabs the axe out of Scorpions shoulder. With his prosthetic hand, Sekiro launches several shuriken into Scorpions face, then with his real hand, sends his axe into Scorpions forehead

Finally, as Scorpion’s grip goes limp, Sekiro attaches several bombs to the injured flame ninja, before letting him fall. Scorpion explodes mid air as Sekiro grapples back towards the tower.

Just when Sekiro was about to reach the tower, there’s an explosion of fire coming from the roof of the tower. it’s Scorpion, tackling Sekiro back down the side tower. Scorpion tightens his grip on Sekiro’s throat

Scorpion: you will join me in HELL!

The duo disappears into an explosion of flame, being teleported to the fiery caverns of the NetherRealm, near a cliff above lava. Scorpion hurls Sekiro over the cliff

Scorpion: Your soul will BURN!

Sekiro uses his grappling hand to grab onto a stalactite. As he begins pulling himself up, Scorpion teleports above him and slices the rope connecting Sekiro to his hand.

Sekiro: No-

He’s cut off as a kunai bursts out of his chest. Scorpion had teleported behind and shot his chain kunai through Sekiro. Scorpion whips the chain downward, causing Sekiro to land in a bloody pile.

Scorion: the Shirai Ryu prevails.

As he walks away, Sekiro breaths another breath. He’s found a second wind, and he rises to his feet. His prosthetic arm is busted, but he still has his sword.

Scorpion, noticing the sound of Sekiro unsheathing his blade, turns to face the wounded shinobi. The warriors meet eye to eye, and Scorpion draws his blade.

They duel for several strikes, both using nothing but their skills. Scorpion goes for a downward chop with his sword, and Sekiro rolls behind him. He stabs through Scorpion’s back

Sekiro: Shinu!

Scorpion, shrugging off the stab, twirls around, completely severing Sekiro’s real arm. Sekiro looks to Scorpion, before closing his eyes to accept his fate.

Scorpion removes his Mask, revealing his skull face, before breathing a bout of fire over Sekiro, burning him to ash.

Scorpion: Fatality.

Scorpion turns, teleporting away with a burst of fire.

The End
