Jade and Tanya get their mission

Kitana returned to her living chamber, and 5 minutes after she arrived, someone knocked on the door

Kitana: Come in

Jade: You called for me, princess

Kitana: Welcome Jade, I hope I didn't bother you

Jade: Nothing you will do will ever bother me, it is my duty to follow your commands

Kitana: how are things with Kotal

Jade: Good, very good

Jade: Though I doubt you summoned me here to talk about my boyfriend

Kitana: You're right, there is a situation that I need your help with

Kitana explains the mission she got from her mother

Jade: So I need to find the leader of the adventurers and bring him to the empress

Kitana: Yes before Tanya does

Jade: Are you certain it will be Tanya I'm up against? I don't know if Mileena will put her in harm's way

Kitana: My sister wants to become empress, she'll sacrifice even Tanya if it comes to it

Jade: Then I'll be off, I swear I'll bring him here, that way your mother will have no choice but to acknowledge you as her true heir

Kitana: Good luck and be safe

At the same time Mileena arrives at her living chambers, and is greeted by a naked Tanya, who is doing her morning stretches

Tanya: Your back, what was so important that you had to leave before I was awake

Mileena: a great opportunity

Tanya: Oh, do tell

Mileena walks over to Tanya and kisses her

Mileena: mother gave me and Kitana and important mission, some adventures crossed the borders and mother wants to see who catches their leader first

Tanya: The empress is allowing you and Kitana to leave the city

Mileena: No we both need to choose a champion who will go in our place

Tanya: In other words, me

Mileena: Yeah, but if you bring that idiot leader back, Mother has no choice but to make me heir, and once I'm the empress, I'll make you my wife, so we can stop hiding our love

Tanya: I told you before, I have no problem in keeping our relationship a secret, I don't want to jeopardize your position, so you don't have to do this for me

Mileena: I want to do this, so can I count on you

Tanya: You can, but I'm not doing this for me, I'm doing this for you

Tanya: Now, let's go pay the prisoners a visit

Mileena: Why

Tanya: Jade probably is going directly towards the last location of the adventurers, so I can't beat her like that, but if I know more about the man who hired the adventurers

Mileena: It will give you an edge

Tanya: Exactly

Mileena: Then let's go

Tanya: I thought you needed to stay out of this

Mileena: I can't go outside of the city, but the prison is in the city

Tanya: Very well
