#jade mk1

These two on base roster would've been amazing.

Before Mk1 was released, I thought we were gonna see Jade in the royals trailer. Since we knew (from beta, Kitana's intro with liu kang), Jade's new role is Countess. I think it would've made sense to see Jade, but no, I was delusional and getting my hopes up.

I can see both Kitana and Mileena slipping little references to Sindel (mom's gotta get her rep) into their individual ceremonies in some way. Maybe using her favourite flowers as decor or something along those lines, kinda like how the festival in MK1's story mode was done to honour Jerrod's memory.

•I headcanon that Jade proposed

•jade is countess of Edenia

The sun was slowly starting to set over Edenia. The blue sky started to fade into an ombre of orange, pink, and purple. Jade could feel the sudden change in the air, the slight breeze kissing her skin. It felt great after spending the day in the sun. She had enjoyed one of the rare free days that both her and Kitana had. So fortunate that they both happened to have some free time, at the same time. Being Countess leaves her little time to herself with specific responsibilities and royal meetings. Her schedule is usually full. And Kitana. Kitana. Princess, General, one of the daughters of Sindel, the list goes on and on. Her schedule is always full.

Jade turns her head as she feels Kitana's slender finger slip through her own. The Countess squeezed her hand in return, offering Kitana a smile. Kitana smiled back, feeling the warmth envelope her hand. Such a welcoming feeling after weeks of stress with leading an army and helping her older sister's reign. Things get rough, so she truly cherishes the days when she can finally release the weight on her shoulders.

Kitana lets out a contented sigh, "I feel at ease. After weeks, it feels nice getting away. even if it's just a day, im glad we get to spend it together."

Jade chuckles, rubbing her thumb against the top of Kitana's hand. "I imagine the last few weeks haven't been too kind to you."

"It comes with the position. Snakes are always after my sister's neck, even after thousands of years. Tanya and I have dealt with 5 separate attempted assassinations. On top of that, there's been whispers of a rebellion. I wouldn't be surprised if it's Shao." Kitana rubs her forehead with her free hand. "I just want my sister's reign to thrive."

Jade's face showed signs of concern as she stared at Kitana. "And you're doing a great job, Kitana." She squeezes her hand again. "You're a strong general, and your sister has rolled in another golden age in Outworld thanks to your help. And remember, Edenia is your ally. My army will aid you if you fall short."

Kitana felt appreciative. For the time she's known the green eyed royal, she's been nothing nice.

They fell into a comfortable silence as the carriage ride continued. The only sounds being the whispers of the wind and the creaking of the carriage wheels. They were on the outskirts of Edenia by now. Jade figured that this would be the best time to propose. She had it in her mind to do it months ago, but of course, duty came first.

The carriage was rolling through a spot the Countess was familiar with. Perfect. She knocks on the carriage for it to stop. Kitana furrows her brow in confusion. Jade saw the look on Kitana's face from the corner of her eye. "There's a place I want to show you. The view is beautiful you'll love it."

As the carriage comes to a full stop, Kitana steps out first. She holds her hand out for the Countess to grab. Jade happily accepts her hand and steps out of the carriage, her heels meeting the dirt road. They had stopped next to a grassy cliff that overlooked a vast field of trees on one side and red, pink, and yellow hibiscus flowers on the other. In the distance stood out a wisteria tree. Hand in hand, Jade led Kitana towards the tree. They sat down to take in the view. From here, they can see the Edenian palace. Shades of orange and purple painted the sky as the sun started to hide behind the place.

"Jade, this view is extraordinary. It's as if I'm sitting in front of a painted canvas. Outworld is rarely this quiet." Kitana's eyes light up with awe as she admired the view in front of her. Jade turns her head to look at Kitana. The Countess takes a moment to adore the way the warm hues give the princess a warm glow, her usual dark brown eyes looking like golden honey. "It definitely adds to Edenia's charm." Both let out a short chuckle and stare off to the distance.

Jade takes a deep, contented breath before speaking. "I used to come here a lot when I was a child. My parents would stop here after royal meetings to distress. I used to pick flowers and give them to my mother. She happily accepted them and made a little flower crown and braided the leftover flowers in my hair." Jade smiles fondly as the memories of her childhood start to play in her head. "It astounds me how one place can hold many beautiful moments, and I want to keep making them... with you, by my side, Kitana."

Kitana's eyes widen slightly as she takes in each word that comes out of Jades mouth. Jade takes hold of Kitana's hand, standing up and helping her up. She grabbed her other hand as she smiled softly at the beautiful princess standing in front of her.

"From the day we were acquainted to now has been the happiest years. Kitana, you are a confident, gorgeous, strong woman. A classy princess and an even better general." The princesses' eyes begin to swell with tears as her smile widens. Jade continues, "I want to be with you through joy and sorrow. Be your strength when you feel weak. I will support you when times get rough." Jade reaches behind her back, revealing a velvet, navy blue box. She opens the box, presenting Kitana with a ring. A beautiful ring with a blue jewel surrounded by gold and silver.

"With this ring, I ask you to be mine, princess Kitana of Outworld." Kitana sniffles, nodding her head while choking out the word yes. Jade's smile grows wider as she carefully slips the ring on the princess' left ring finger. Kitana wraps her arms around Jade's neck, pulling her in for a kiss.

When they pull away, Kitana rests her forehead against Jade's forehead. "You know, I was gonna propose to you. Mileena came along with me to get the ring. You have no idea what that's like." Jade chuckles, "you still can. I'm right here." Kitana pulls out a small box and opens it.

"Jade, my enchanting countess, I am forever grateful for the gods who decided to make our paths cross. The day we met marked the start of something I never thought would blossom into what we have today. And with this ring, it marks the new chapter in our lives filled with promise and love. I ask you to be mine, Jade, countess of Edenia." Tears came down as she tried to wipe them. "Yes," she was smiling ear to ear, Kitana expression mirrored hers. The princess slipped the ring on the countess' finger before being pulled into a kiss.
