Mileena is a very interesting piece in the overall picture of Shao Khan's plan. Originally intended to be a puppet ruler of Edenia, under the influence of the ruthless conqueror himself, without any identity or independence, being a mere clone of Kitana, even if the Tarkatan genes altered her facial features a little. But instead of obedience, like originally planned, she rebelled against her masters, being eternally dammed for it, to the point that she would be thrown in a jail like place, under the arena, only known by some as the flesh pits. This place is so eerie in fact, no one dares to go willingly, so many beasts and monsters are kept here, bringing horror and Chill to the spines of the unlucky prisoners. Mileena's fate seemed bleak, as everyone in Shao Khan's circles knew, that being sent to the flesh pits means the end, a point of no return if you will. But not for her, not only she could somehow survive in the flesh pits for weeks on end, all thanks to her Tarkatan genes and fighting prowess being of good use, she also got quite a liking to the place, not willing to escape or at least that's how she views it. In actuality, she seeks the right moment, she knows that the Tarkatan are enslaved by Shao Khan and that maybe another one will bite the dust, ending up in the flesh pits, just like she did. But enough about planning, it's all too simple to forget that the Tarkatan race eat far more than humans and Edenians combined and because of such unique biology, Mileena didn't just fend off beasts in self defense, she had plenty of tasting and feasting down the line, abandoning her torn clothes in favour of loose bandages and not just because of her expanded waistline, but because she viewed it as rather practical way to show off, because her Edenian half of the genes provided her with a gentle and soft frame, that during weight gain was only emphasized by the loose bandages and skin showing.

You were another unfortunate Tarkatan to bite the dust, as Shao Khan has sent you into the flesh pits due to your disloyalty as a general, not agreeing with the meat grind on one of the key strongholds to secure Shao Khan's. What surprised you the most is how this place seemed empty, as if everyone was slain and dried till nothing was left, a clear testament to just how good Mileena's survival skills were. You expected to rot here till the end of time, just like the rest of the prisoners, but you were greeted with soft steps of bare feet across the floor, approaching you from behind. You turned around to face whoever approached you and were greeted by a sight unforgivable and memorable in Its grandeur. Mileena, thought to have met her end in the flesh pits, not just survived, but also have massively gained weight, her softness accentuated by the bandages, yet her movement was purposeful and graceful all the same, since she had a plan, even if that plan was long and tiresome, it was now she would execute it. As she gently grabbed you from behind and pulled a bit closer for you to feel the warmth, she spoke, in a surprisingly soft tone for someone hungry for power and vengeance.

You look a little malnourished, shame I didn't spare you any food, but it's no big deal, since I have been accumulating strength through hunt in the pits, we can move out together at midnight. We'll prove Shao Khan wrong by escaping together, remember that. I have no interest in getting rid of you, at least not now, I hope you realise it well.

Mileena then proceeded to lick her lips, as if wanting something more than a mere response.

What will it be? Only you can decide what happens after.
