Sonya Blade

== Early Life ==
Sonya Blade grew up in a military family and she spent most of her childhood in the U.K. where her father was based. By the time Sonya was 3 her father died while on the Job. Sonya and her mother moved to Scotland, where she was raised by her mother as a single parent. When Sonya was 11 her mother was killed at a gas station. Sonya got out of the car she was in and revealed herself to the killers seeing her mother’s dead body. The killers took her to their base of operations where they held her for 5 months until they sent her to an orphanage in the Soviet Union. At the Orphanage she was being trained, along with other children, by a man named Orlov to obey him. She underwent special military training by the Soviets and since she wasn’t there since birth Sonya was given a serum to temporarily erase her memory of her prior life. After her training was complete she was given the serum again and when she is “ready”, she along with a hand full of other orphans were sent to America with a future mission to kill the U.S. President.
== Who is Sonya Blade?-21-25 ==
She became a CIA Agent by 21. 2 years after that, she was being held in a prison in North Korea, where she was tortured on suspicion of being an American spy. Released as part of a prisoner exchange, she is collected by CIA colleague Ted Winter and her boyfriend, well-known arachnologist Michael Krause. Sonya admits her true occupation and genuine feelings to Krause but warns him that he "is not safe with her." Mike however doesn't care and tells her on the return home that he wants to spend the rest of his life with Sonya. Two years later, on their wedding anniversary, a Russian defector named Vasilly Orlov arrives at the CIA. Sonya interrogates him with Winter and CIA Counterintelligence agent Peabody observing. Orlov tells her about "Day X", a Russian plot to destroy the United States by using English-speaking sleeper agents trained from birth. Agent "KA-12" will kill Russian President Boris Matveyev at the funeral of the American Vice President. Orlov reveals that KA-12 is named "Sonya Blade". Sonya, shocked by the accusation, calls her husband. He does not answer, and she realizes he is in danger. When Winter and Peabody decide to detain Sonya, she escapes and makes her way back to her apartment. Finding signs that Michael has been kidnapped, Sonya takes her weapons and one of Michael's spiders. After evading CIA pursuit, Sonya travels to New York City and checks into a hotel, where she extracts venom from the spider. Sonya makes her way to the church, where the Vice President's funeral is taking place, evading pursuit and eventually setting off a demolition charge during Matveyev's eulogy. Matveyev falls through the floor, and Sonya shoots. Peabody captures her, but she escapes. On her way to the barge where Orlov is holed up with other KAs, Sonya remembers, growing up in the Soviet Union, where her mentor Orlov trained her and other children to obey him absolutely. Sonya and Orlov have a touching reunion until, as a test of her loyalty to himself, he has Michael killed right in front of her but she does not react. He then briefs her on the next part of her mission: Assassinating the President of the United States and commandeering the U.S. nuclear arsenal. Once Orlov has finished, Sonya kills him and the other agents. Sonya continues with Orlov's mission, meeting a fellow KA agent named Shnaider, a Czech NATO liaison. With Sonya disguised as a man, they go to the White House; and Shnaider sets off a suicide bomb, causing the Secret Service and CIA Officer Ted Winter to move the President to "a safe location". In a series of violent hand-to-hand battles, Sonya follows them to the bunker. In the bunker, Winter suddenly shoots everyone except the President, to whom he introduces himself as Nikolai Tarkovski and knocks the most powerful man in the world unconscious. He then takes over the Department of Defense computers, just enabled by the President, and prepares to launch nuclear missiles at Mecca and Tehran. Sonya finally reaches the bunker and sees Winter through the Control Room window amidst several bodies strewn around. She asks to join Winter to share the glory, and he agrees until the television news feed reveals Sonya's duplicity—Matveyev is alive. Winter rebukes Sonya for falling for Krause, instead of recruiting him, and brags that he arranged for Orlov's appearance and Krause's kidnapping. Sonya breaks into the Control Room, where they fight for the nuclear football. Sonya wins and aborts the launch just as the Secret Service Agents and Peabody break in to arrest Sonya and rescue Winter. On the way out of the White House, Sonya manages to kill Winter. On a helicopter with the CIA man and the FBI Hostage Rescue Team; Sonya convinces a skeptical Peabody she wants revenge on the sleeper project because "they took everything from her" and tells him there are many more remaining KAs trained by Orlov. After receiving an SMS saying that Sonya's fingerprints were found at the barge, Peabody accepts she is telling the truth. Peabody uncuffs Sonya and whispers, "Go get 'em", before she jumps into the Potomac River.

Within the year Sonya was able to track down and kill all the other KAs. Her last kill interfered with a mission being run by a private security company named Byzantium.

== Ensuring Samantha's Saftey-31 ==
2 years later Sonya gets a call from her former team leader now head of Byzantium Deacon telling her that Aidan Marsh has been murdered. She said that she was sorry to hear that and Deacon told her to come in and that they need to talk. Sonya goes to London and once at Deacon’s office sees that he is not alone. In his office sits CIA Counterintelligence agent Peabody. Agent Peabody then briefs Sonya on the man who killed Aidan who’s known as simply Kano. Peabody then says that Kano works for a gang called the Black Dragon Clan and that the CIA and U.S. Special Forces have been trying to capture them to no avail. Deacon then said that Aiden came the closest to busting up their operations until he was caught and killed by Kano who they have discovered killed all of Aiden’s remaining family: all but one. Sonya knows that he is talking about their daughter. Deacon tells her that she needs to ensure Samantha’s safety and Peabody offers her a position in the U.S. Special Forces to give her the best chance at finding and killing Kano while also operating to shut down the Black Dragon Clan. Sonya leaves Samantha in the care of her friend and goes off to America so she can start the search for Kano to protect her daughter and avenge the death of her partner Aiden.
== Special Forces-31-40 ==
Sonya came to the Special Forces and was given the codename Gemini. Sonya’s direct superior in the Special Forces is Kurtis Jackson Guile who goes by the codename Jax. Sonya was immediately attracted to Jax but decided to not pursue a relationship with him because of the fact that he was married and she learned her mistake with Aiden to not date your coworker. Instead they became very close friends with Jax becoming one of the few people that she trusts. For 2 years their Special Forces Unit tried to track down the Black Dragon Clan even coming so close as having Kano in custody but he was able to escape before Sonya could attempt to kill him. The trace was cold until they got their big break.
=== Mortal Kombat-33 ===
Sonya's pursuit of Kano leads her to Shang Tsung's boat, where she meets Bo Kazama and Forrest Masters. The three of them are chosen by Raiden to represent Earthrealm in the Mortal Kombat tournament, and it is there that Sonya encounters Kano and Kills him, avenging the murder of Aiden by Kano's hands. Later, Sonya is taken prisoner by Shang Tsung and challenged by him to Mortal Kombat. Sonya is rescued by Bo, Forrest and Princess Kitana. Bo takes Sonya's place and defeats Shang Tsung, winning the tournament. During the Tournament a budding affection grew between Sonya and movie star Forrest Masters and after the Tournament the two embarked on a whirlwind romance. Forrest brought Sonya as a date to a couple of his movie premiers and she even met Forrest’s parents. On the night before she is to reunite and introduce Forrest to her daughter Sonya sleeps peacefully until she gets a vision in her dream. The vision was from Kano who tells her to come to Outworld and that their party ain’t over yet. The next day Sonya writes a letter to Forrest saying she was going to look for a portal to Outworld to check something out and that something doesn’t feel right. While driving on a lonely highway, Sonya comes across a random portal. Sonya gets out of her car and decides to enter the portal.
=== Mortal Kombat II ===
At the other end of the portal she found herself back on Shang Tsung’s Island where none other than Kano was waiting for her. She looks at him and says “this is impossible, I snapped your neck.” Kano said “Your right baby you did we have to talk about that later haha. Shang Tsung was brought back to life with his youth restored by the emperor and because Mr. Tsung took my soul he revived me and told me I still have work to be done. Sooo while I wait for orders from Mr. Tsung ive decided to have a little fun with you, which brings me to you giving me a break.” The two start fighting but during the battle, the island started to crumble and both she and Kano were taken prisoner to Outworld by Shang Tsung to appease the emperor, Shao Kahn. In Earthrealm Forrest goes looking for Sonya and also stumbled across a portal. Forrest goes inside but instead of going to Outworld he lands in a river close to the Special Forces Agency, and they took him in on Jax orders for an interrogation on the whereabouts of Sonya. Sonya however, was able to send a signal to her superior Jax from Outworld. He traveled there to find her. Jax made contact with the other Earthrealm warriors, and together, they learned of Kahn's scheme to invade Earth. She was later freed by Jax who arrested Kano, but as soon as they had passed through the portal to Earth in which Sonya’s boyfriend Forrest Masters gave his life to ensure his comrades had safe passage back to Earth, Kano escaped and ran back into Outworld. Sonya and Jax now had other things on their minds, however. They tried to warn the United States government of the impending invasion, but their claims went unheeded. As such, they began preparing by themselves for the coming invasion.
=== Mortal Kombat 3-34 ===
When the fateful day finally came, Shao Kahn stripped Earthrealm of all human souls, with the exception of a few chosen warriors, one of which was Sonya, who would soon encounter her old nemesis, Kano, on top of a skyscraper near Kahn's fortress. A fierce battle was waged between the two. Kano gained the upper hand, and kicked Sonya onto a stone gargoyle. Sonya feigned defeat, but when Kano advanced to finish Sonya off, grabbing her by the hair, she performed her infamous special move: the leg grab, and hurled Kano off of the roof to his apparent death, taking a lock of her hair with him. Kano however survived the fall and he was found by Motaro who took him back to Shao Kahn who had him imprisoned for failing him. Kano soon gains favor when he was able to stop an assassination attempt on Shao Kahn’s life by the Shokan Shiva. Kano was then promoted to general of Shao Kahn’s army and was back running the streets of Earthrealm. Meanwhile on Earth Sonya was still distraught over the death of Forrest and around the same time Jax got divorced from his wife Julia. The two friends soon became romantic with each other now single and decide that their new relationship can help them cope with the recent tragedies they have both had.
=== Super Fighters vs. Superheroes ===
Sonya soon ends up chasing Kano. Although she pursues him well, she fails to catch him. During the moment of Bo's disappearance, she encounters Catwoman, and defeats her. She searches for Bo, but is attacked by Baraka. After defeating him, she suspects an invasion coming and goes to Raiden's Sky Temple to tell him. When she arrives, Captain Marvel storms out. She defeats him, and is subsequently confronted by Green Lantern, whom she also defeats, but Captain Marvel knocks her unconscious soon after and flees. As Jax approaches her, she instead sees Kano due to Kombat Rage and attacks him. Raiden, however, arrives with Bo, who he had recently rescued from the heroes, and stops the fight. Sonya returns to her normal state and apologizes to Jax for attacking him. After returning to the base, she checks on Catwoman. She and Jax go to the U.N. Orbital Station. Although Jax defeats Captain Marvel and Wonder Woman, both are defeated by a newly recharged Green Lantern. After returning to Raiden's Sky Temple, she is told that she will have to work with Kano. As they approach the Graveyard, they spot Deathstroke and Joker. After they damage her teleporter, they wound up on Oa. They are both defeated by The Joker, who had been infected with Kombat Rage the whole time. After they all gather in, they travel to Outworld. There they have a massive brawl with the heroes until Raiden and Superman decided to stop fighting and work together to stop Dark Khan.
=== Mortal Kombat 4-35 ===
Sonya soon gave up the search for Kano as she had already defeated him and he knows that if he messes with her or her family she’ll just kill him again. Plus Kano left the black Dragon Clan and was now doing business in Outworld way beyond her jurisdiction. After her journey to Outworld and Shao Kahn's near destruction of Earth, Sonya became a member of Earth's own Outer World Investigation Agency. The Black Dragon kept crossing her path, however. Its last known member, Jarek, had fled to Edenia while Sonya was chasing him. This lead Sonya and Jax to team up with Raiden and Bo to free that realm from the Fallen Elder God Shinnok's grasp, and to prevent him from coming to Earth. During the battle Raiden brought Forrest Masters back to life to help fight Shinnok. After the battle the revival was permanent and Forrest was allowed to live on earth once more. Sonya however did not look to continue her relationship with him as she wanted to stay committed to her relationship with Jax.
=== Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance-36 ===
A year later, Sonya would once again heed Raiden's call, this time to travel to Outworld after the Deadly Alliance had slain Shao Kahn and Bo Kazama. For Sonya, this coincided with her search for two missing OIA agents, Cyrax and Kenshi. She was unable to find them, however, and was killed along with Jax, Forrest, Kitana, and Kung Lao in a fight with the Deadly Alliance and their minions. The Deadly Alliance's victory was short-lived, as Onaga had been resurrected moments after their victory over Raiden himself, and reclaimed Outworld, as well as the amulet. With his ability to raise the dead at will, he resurrected and enslaved Sonya and her fallen comrades. After Onaga's defeat, Sonya and the other Earthrealm warriors were freed and restored to normality by Ermac. Seeing and being around Forrest at that time really brought back some old feelings that she still harbored for him. At the same time Jax was ready to try to reconcile with his wife and make their marriage work so the two mutually agreed to part ways while agreeing to still be best friends.
=== Mortal Kombat: Armageddon-37 ===
A year later, Sonya and her force found Sektor and his men invading territory protected by Earthrealm. Sonya sends Jax and his men to handle Sektor. When nobody checked in the following day she decided to go to Outworld to look for Jax. Her ship destroyed Sektor's, but she found a tracer attached to an Edenian warrior named Taven in the snow region of Arctika. As Taven was about to fight a snow monster, Sonya destroyed it and proceeded to interrogate Taven. Though Taven was innocent, he would not reveal his quest, and Sonya attacked him. She was, however, convinced by the half-god that he had nothing to do with the Tekunin leader, Sektor, so Sonya leaves him alone and continued her way back to the Special Forces base. After searching as far into Outworld as she could she had to report Jax as M.I.A. and presumed dead. Sonya was the one to tell his wife and kids the bad news and after that shuts down the O.I.A. feeling guilty for the death of Jax. Sonya stayed with the Special Forces, however she was given an indefinite leave of absence so she could spend time with her daughter.
=== Reunited ===
Sonya then heads to Scotland to be with Samantha who is now a teenager. Soon she receives a visit form Forrest Masters who flew all the way from New York to Scotland to talk with Sonya. Forrest tells her that he has loved her since the moment he saw her and is still in love with her till this day. He promises Sonya that she will be the only woman he truly loves until his dying day and that all he wants is for her to give them one more chance. She tells Forrest that she feels the same way and that she loves him and they decide to give their love a try. Sonya and Samantha then move to New York with Forrest.
=== The Netherrealm War-38 ===
Sonya accompanies Forrest Cage and Kenshi on one last mission from the Special Forces to stop Shinnok from poisoning the Jinsei chamber. When a brainwashed Scorpion and Sub-Zero assault their aircraft and kill the pilot, she takes control and flies it while Kenshi and Forrest fend the ninjas off. She manages to crash-land the craft, and the group makes their way to the temple. She is saddened to see Jax as a revenant when he fights against them, but Forrest reassures her and reminds her that it's not really him. In the chamber, she attempts to fight Shinnok hand to hand with Forrest but is subdued quickly. Shinnok tries to kill her for good, but Forrest leaps in front of her and blocks the attack with his inner power. After the battle, she passes out from her injuries, but satisfied that they've won.  Sonya and Forrest later track down Quan Chi to his fortress along with revenants Jax, Sub-Zero and Scorpion. They take down the three revenants together but while confronting Quan Chi, Jax recovers and stabs Forrest from behind. Sonya manages to incapacitate Quan Chi, and then take down Jax, but is unable to save Forrest who is dying. Thankfully, Raiden teleports inside the lair and is able to reverse Quan Chi's magic while Sonya subdues Quan Chi. By mixing his power with Quan Chi's, Raiden is successful in not only saving Forrest and stopping him from becoming a revenant, but releasing Jax, Scorpion and Sub-Zero from Quan Chi's control.
=== Finally A Family-39-40 ===
Not long after, Sonya becomes pregnant. Shortly after that, Forrest and Sonya get married and they have a beautiful baby girl named Maria. A few months after the birth of Maria, Sonya finally meets Forrest’s adult son Mel who along with his girlfriend Kozue move into the Masters household. Sonya now had the big family that she always wanted having being stripped of one from an early age. When Sonya came back to the Special Forces from maternity leave, she was able to finally shut down the Black Dragon and Red Dragon clans, clearing the way for a new era of peace. Sonya then retires from the Special Forces to be a full time mother and wife.
== The Decision-49 ==
Sonya's big family life didn't last to long however, as Mel and Kozue soon brought their own house, Samantha went away to College, and Forrest started traveling as a pro wrestler for the WWE. The only people at the Masters house was Sonya, Maria, and the Nanny for 9 months out of the year(when Maria is on summer vacation from school they travel on the road with Forrest). Sonya was beginning to fell lonely and useless event though she had a full time job as a mother. Sonya missed feeling important and the excitement of trying to save the world. She also would get sick to her stomach when she would turn on the news and see the Black and Red Dragon clans running amuck all over the world. So it was not surprising that Sonya accepted a job offer by the United Nations to be the General of the Special Forces; protecting Earthrealm from all foes inside and out. The problem with this was that Sonya was constantly on missions, the most in her Career, so unfortunately she was almost never at home. she would go on stretches of not being home that would put Forrest in his WWE heyday to shame. Other than the occasional week off, Sonya would only come home for Birthdays and Holidays. This put a strain on both of her relationships with her husband and daughter; but mostly her daughter who didn't have her mother around for most of her pre teen- teenage years.
== Most Important Mission of Her Life-60 ==
Sonya is sent on a mission to physically head to Outworld to speak with Kotal Kahn but before she goes she is reminded to not start an interrealm war. Sonya retorts that she has a mother's touch. Sonya then goes to confront Kotal Kahn and his warriors D'Vorah and Erron Black. Kotal makes his case for Earthrealm to aid him in defeating Mileena, but Sonya interprets this as threats towards Earthrealm and tells Kotal to fight his own battles. When Sonya turns her back on the Kahn and declares they are done, this enrages D'Vorah who attempts to attack Sonya. Sonya easily counters and lands a hard kick on the insect woman's jaw. Sonya draws her gun on D'Vorah while her fellow soldiers charge in, weapons on Kotal and Erron Black. Sonya has D'Vorah pinned down and is threatening to put a bullet in her head if Kotal doesn't call off his attack. D'Vorah is unfazed and Kotal is too enraged to stop, but Raiden's arrival causes bolts of lightning to strike all kombatants, Sonya included, as he orders the fighting to stop. After Kotal and his followers retreat, Sonya snaps at Raiden that she had the situation covered, but the thunder god only asks her of her daughter's whereabouts. Later, Sonya arrives at the illegal deathmatch club where Maria had been and finds her daughter's cellphone with several missed calls from her father and a snap shot of Erron Black. When one of her Special Forces soldiers confirm the Black Dragon's involvement, a furious Sonya tells him to call Forrest and get ready to head for Outworld before proclaiming Kotal Kahn to be a dead man. Sonya manages to get a shot on a weakened Kotal Kahn after he burned Reiko and Mileena's hideout to the ground, before demanding to know where her daughter is. Sonya reloads, reiterating her demand for her daughter and warning Kotal Kahn that her next shot goes between his eyes if he doesn't answer. Reptile comes to the fallen Emperor's defense, infuriated at Sonya's accusations, and tries to strike her with his tongue. The attack is blocked by Forrest Masters, who begins calming everyone down. After Kotal Kahn's wound is treated by D'Vorah, he refuses to speak to Sonya, with Forrest not blaming him, causing Sonya to groan in annoyance. After Forrest explains the situation and Kotal Kahn realizes that Erron Black is the true perpetrator who instigated Maria and Amy's kidnapping with the Black Dragon, D'Vorah comments to an indifferent Sonya that Outworld was frustrated by the poor meeting and believes Black to be acting on that. Sonya only states that she knew one of Kotal's warriors was behind it, with Kotal responding that Black did not get permission from him. Forrest tries to calm Sonya down but she just snaps at him to get Erron Black's location and to stop running his mouth. After Kotal Kahn gives them Black's location and sends Reptile and D'Vorah to accompany them, Sonya decides to let the emperor deal with Erron Black after retrieving her daughter, saying he is Outworld's problem. Sonya follows D'Vorah in the lead as the group explores the Outworld jungles in search of Erron Black and the girls. When D'Vorah kills and devours a small lizard, Sonya expresses her disgust at both the act and D'Vorah's offer to regurgitate to share with her. When Sonya overhears Forrest betting with Reptile on her snapping first, she warns Forrest not to tempt her. When Forrest tries to get her attention, Sonya at first waves him off until he points out he's found their kidnapper, and Sonya sees a bloody and beaten Erron Black tied to a treetop. Unfazed by the mercenary's state, she orders him to be cut down so they can find out where the girls are. After Erron Black tells the group of the battle with the Red Dragon, Kano's escape and Maria's execution of Mavado, Sonya is impressed by her daughter's fortitude and is convinced she's still alive. Erron Black then tells them that the girls were taken to Shang Tsung's island, with Sonya noting that Tsung is dead before asking who's on his island, with Black revealing the girls to be captives of the cleric of chaos, Havik. Sonya alongside Forrest and their Special Forces troops observe Kotal Kahn's reprimanding of Erron Black for the kidnapping of the girls. When Kotal asks Black how they are supposed to repair this offense to Earthrealm, Sonya demands they be given safe passage to Shang Tsung's Island and that they pray they find the girls alive, but begins to break down when confronting the possibility that Maria may have already been killed. Forrest offers her a comforting hand but Sonya slaps it away, telling Forrest to "Fuck off." Sonya listens to Kotal Kahn explain his own recent losses before the emperor promises them his swiftest ship and a battalion of his soldiers to accompany them. When Sonya asks what the catch is, Kotal Kahn tells her they must survive the coming dawn and reveals the approaching Shokan army prepared to avenge Goro's defeat. As Kotal Kahn explains his strategy to hold off the coming Shokan siege, Sonya compliments his strategy but questions how many he is expecting. When Kotal admits he doesn't know how many to expect, Sonya declares the city a deathtrap and questions Kotal Kahn's strategy if as many as a hundred thousand Shokan arrive. When D'Vorah announces that the Shokan have been spotted over the mountain, Sonya questions one of her soldiers, who tells her all he could see was the dust kicked up by the approaching army. Outside, a shocked Kotal Kahn announces they need a new plan and Sonya asks how many Shokan. The emperor admits less than he was expecting, but the Shokan are joined by the Oni Warlords. Sonya prepares barricades throughout the city and as her team is securing the last one, she contacts Forrest, who is stationed with snipers along the city's walls. After confirming Forrest is in position, she ceases communications and waits for D'Vorah to attempt to negotiate with the Shokan. When the negotiations fail, Sonya calls Forrest again just as an Oni Warlord attacks the perimeter wall. Sonya's communication with Forrest is cut off as the Oni Warlord smashes the wall and Sonya is left calling out to an unresponsive Forrest, pleading with him to respond. As Kotal Kahn's warriors scramble to confront the Shokan forces, Sonya keeps trying to contact Forrest on her communicator when one of her lieutenants calls out in warning to her. Cursing Outworld, Sonya turns and confronts a charging Oni Warlord, ordering her soldier back before firing an energy beam from her wrist gauntlet. The attack temporarily staggers the Oni before it retaliates with a swing of its battle axe, bisecting the lieutenant in half, showering Sonya in his blood. Sonya manages to escape the Warlord and runs into one of her men, who is shell shocked by the violence and reminded of the days of the Netherrealm War. Sonya orders him to collect himself and work with her less they both get killed. The soldier snaps back to attention and attempts to cover his general from the returned Oni Warlord with his handguns, but meets a swift end at the Oni's axe when it splits his head in two, much to Sonya's horror. Sonya dodges the monster's follow up attack but is punched into a nearby scaffolding. When Sonya hears the Oni laughing, she fires another energy blast into its face, the beam seeming to fell the monster, much to Sonya's disbelief, when she sees a blood covered Kotal Kahn brandishing his sword. The emperor greets Sonya and helps her up, and the general mourns her fallen men. Just as Kotal Kahn is promising Sonya he will help her recover her daughter and get vengeance, both hear Forrest Masters calling out to them and see him fleeing from the hordes of the Shokan, straight for them. Sonya fights alongside Forrest against the Shokan, stealing a spear from one of the Shokan to use against them. After Kotal Kahn kills King Gorbak and sends the Shokan horde into retreat, Sonya and Forrest observe Kotal with his warriors, and after Forrest comments that it's looking more like the emperor's last stand, Sonya says they should go get the girls, get out of Outworld and go home.  Forrest then collapses from the toll of his injuries. Sonya checks his wound and begins applying pressure, urging Forrest to keep talking for once to keep him awake and from going into shock. Forrest suddenly apologizes for Maria's behavior, explaining he was the same way at her age only difference being he was married. Sonya jokes about a young woman with the mind of Forrest Masters being reassuring, but when Forrest suddenly starts to talk about not making it out of Outworld, Sonya tells him they're in this together. When the Black Dragon clan arrives to aid Kotal Kahn and his forces in repelling the Shokan hordes, Sonya refuses to fight alongside Kano and waits back at Kotal's palace while the two forces clash outside the city. Conflicted over her choice, Sonya asks Forrest if she made the right call and Forrest tells her he is not sure, as it is a no win situation no matter what happens and reminds Sonya that she can't save everyone and every realm. Forrest comforts Sonya and tells her to focus on saving what matters the most, their daughter and her friend. Sonya hugs and kisses Forrest and thanks him, but their tender moment is ruined when a massive explosion outside the city catches their attention. After Kotal Kahn successfully sways the Shokan back to his side and attacks Kano for his involvement with Maria and Amy's kidnapping, Sonya arrives with Forrest just as Tremor threatens to bring the palace down, shooting him in the shoulder and arm with a shotgun, while joking to Kotal about his 'friends'. Sonya holds Forrest back when Kano makes a snide remark about their daughter as he is being carted away and she then asks Kotal if he plans to execute the Black Dragon members. Kotal denies this, saying Kano must answer for crimes beyond Outworld and plans to turn him over to Sonya. Sonya thanks the emperor and tells him they still need to find the girls. Kotal agrees and reveals he has the ship prepared and will join them as they sail that night for Shang Tsung's Island. When Kotal Kahn says that defeating Reiko and the Red Dragon will require their own alliance, Sonya agrees.

10 years later, when the refugees from Li Mei's village arrive in Earthrealm, Sonya is tipped off that Kano is along with them; being confirmed when a refugee woman turns up dead by one of Kano's neckties. Sonya tracks him down, disguised as the woman, and defeats him in battle. Sonya loses control and begins strangling him, but Forrest manages to stop her, telling her that this shouldn't be another thing she regrets. With Kano alive, the Special Forces learn of the location of Shinnok's amulet. Afterwards, she visits Jax and convinces him to aid the Special Forces on their mission to capture Quan Chi, as his experience from being a revenant was vital. It is also revealed that Jax holds a grudge against Sonya as Sonya allowed Amy Guile to join the Special Forces. After the successful capture, Scorpion- now known by his human name Hanzo- attempts to kill Quan Chi and fends Sonya off. Held by his ninja subordinates, she can only look on while Hanzo decapitates Quan Chi, who is able to free Shinnok from his amulet. She is unable to stop Shinnok from taking Forrest prisoner and passes out once Maria and her group show up. After the final battle between Maria and Shinnok, with Maria proving victorious, Sonya and the Special Forces raid the Sky Temple and capture Shinnok and D'Vorah. She comforts Forrest and commemorates him. The three stay close, a family once again. Sonya then once again retired from the Special Forces and lived the rest of her life with the love of her husband, children, and grandchildren.
