Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge/Transcript

(The Warner Animation logo appears, Daffy Duck goes outdoors after the WB logo opens, then it closes as Daffy Duck enjoys messing with its logo, then jumps and runs towards the screen hitting himself and losing a tooth. As he is knocked out, Scorpion appears after opening the WB logo and grabs Daffy Duck by the neck.)
Scorpion: GET OVER HERE!
(And pulls Daffy inside its WB logo and the WB logo closes itself.)
(Then the next scene shows ants running, then it keeps showing ants running again, then after this, a tail from the scorpion appears beheading one of the ants, the ants keep getting killed despite their attempts to kill the scorpion, then the next scene shows a boy named Satoshi Hasashi and his father Hanzo Hasashi.)
Hanzo Hasashi: Look. What do you see?
(He sadly looks how the scorpion fights the ants helplessly)
Satoshi Hasashi: Papa, the scorpion. It needs help.
Hanzo Hasashi: Life is cruel Satoshi. It doesn't care where you are from, what God you pray to, it is. So you must face it head on. (Satoshi wipes his tears) See the scorpion? No matter how enemies, it continues on. (Satoshi smiles) It is strong, yes. It is fast. But do you know why the scorpion is feared? Its will.
(Then the scorpion killed many ants that the other ants are running away.)
Hanzo Hasashi: Willpower is what makes your destiny your own. Learn to be strong (points at Satoshi's head) here (and points at Satoshi's heart) and here. Promise me you'll remember that?
Satoshi Hasashi: I will papa.
Hanzo Hasashi: Now let's get home. Your mother is making dinner and she won't be happy if we're late.
(Hanzo ducks for Satoshi to ride in while Satoshi laughs slightly.)
Hanzo Hasashi: Hold on.
(Satoshi laughs in excitement)
Satoshi Hasashi: Faster papa faster!
(Then the scene transfers to the night scene and Hanzo Hasashi stops running for a while and starts walking)
Satoshi Hasashi: More.
Hanzo Hasashi: Your papa needs a break.
(Then they started walking and they looked at an empty house with no people, then they proceed on walking. The paper lanterns keep swinging slowly. Hanzo while holding his son, walks until a mysterious person walks. Then they go to an alley with no people in it.)
Satoshi Hasashi: Where is everyone papa?
Hanzo Hasashi: Hold tight Satoshi.
(Then a Lin Kuei assassin prepares to kill Hanzo, until Hanzo heard the assassin's footsteps. So Hanzo avoided all Lin Kuei attacks, then he blocked the Lin Kuei assassin's attack with a wooden circle, parried him and then flipped the knife for Hanzo to grab it by the handle, and then stabbed the assassin in the head, and opened it killing the assassin. Then another assassin came by surprise and grab Hanzo by the chains to restrain him. But Satoshi bit the assassin's hand so he can escape, which gives Hanzo a chance to throw the assassin forward and stab him. Then another assassin comes to attack Hanzo, but Hanzo blocked the attacks. parried him and then stabbed the assassin in the cheeks causing the assassin's eyeballs to get off his eye sockets killing him. Then another assassin joins the battle, and after Hanzo avoids the attacks, he flips the Lin Kuei knife, avoids the assassin's attack and then kicks the knife in the handle stabbing the assassin in the stomach. Then more Lin Kuei assassins arrived and he grabbed Satoshi and then run, and then he carried him on his back as he jumped on the poles, the assassins threw ninja stars and Hanzo and Satoshi avoided them and they entered into a house only to find Shirai Ryu clan to be killed and almost scaring Satoshi, and Hanzo covered his son's mouth.)
Hanzo Hasashi: (quietly) Harumi.
(And the assassins were approaching the house, so the assassins broke and entered the house but Hanzo and Satoshi escaped somehow stealthily, and they went to the bigger building finding Harumi Hasashi.)
Hanzo Hasashi: Harumi, Harumi, Harumi
(As Hanzo searched, he didn't find her until Satoshi found her.)
Satoshi Hasashi: Papa
(And then Harumi Hasashi is found dead with a huge chunk of blood meaning that she was killed by the Lin Kuei assassins, and her ring is show on her index finger. Then as Satoshi cries, Hanzo puts his hand on his son's shoulder to comfort him. And as he sees his deceased wife, he closes his eyes and enters in rage mode. Then he proceeds to elbow a Lin Kuei, then grabs his head and knees him, and then takes his sickle and slices the Lin Kuei Assassin with it, spilling some blood on the screen. Then he counterattacks another Lin Kuei assassins and uses the sickle to make a huge wound on his shoulder and then rips it off causing the assassin to scream in pain, then the assassin looks at his missed arm and Hanzo cuts his head with the sickle killing him, and then chops the deceased assassin's fingers to take the sword. Another Lin Kuei assassin rushes to kill Hanzo. Hanzo enters in Berserk mode and then bisects the Lin Kuei assassin horizontally, then mortally wounds the other Lin Kuei assassin with the sword and sickle, and then chops the assassin's arm and stabs him in the liver with the sickle, and then slices his arm, wounds him in the chest and bisects his head horizontally. And then runs to kill the next 3 Lin Kuei assassins. Then in the next scene, Satoshi whimpers while his body shakes of cold, as he blows cold wind indicating that he might get captured. In the next scene, Hanzo kicks a Lin Kuei assassin in the wall, then grabs another 3 Lin Kuei assassins, throws them on the ground, slices them and kills them. These other 3 assassins are shocked what Hanzo did. And as they run away from him, he decapitates one of them, then he bisects the other one horizontally and then stabs the runaway assassin in the chin and stabs the sword in the roof. And after spilling the assassin's blood in the roof, he then opens the deceased assassin's skull forward, and some blood of the assassin is spilled on Hanzo's suit. Then the assassin impaled Hanzo with a knife stick behind in the side, and then Hanzo stabs the assassin back killing him. And then tears the stick to remove it from his wound, looking at the Lin Kuei assassins around him. And then his eye gets in rage mode, meaning that Hanzo kills the assassins, while the background is bloody red, he splitted the Lin Kuei assassin's head, then he cuts the assassins into pieces, then he splits the assassin's head in 4 pieces, then he stabs with the stick and knife to a Lin Kuei assassin, and stabs the last one, and then drags him to stab him more in rage and after the final hit, he calms down and the scene goes back to normal just for Hanzo to realize what he has done, and the scene shows the bridge and water with blood. Then a voice is heard behind Hanzo)
Bi-Han/Sub-Zero (Quan Chi): Enough!
(Then Quan Chi disguised as Sub-Zero holds Satoshi Hasashi by the neck as his hostage. Hanzo stands up and almost walks to Bi-Han.)
Bi-Han/Sub-Zero (Quan Chi): Come further, and he dies. (slightly freezes Satoshi's neck.)
Hanzo Hasashi: What do you want?
Bi-Han/Sub-Zero (Quan Chi): On your knees.
(Then Hanzo kneels to Bi-Han/Sub-Zero with an angry look and as Satoshi looks scared, Bi-Han/Sub-Zero freezes Hanzo creating a big spiky ice trapping his whole body except his head and Hanzo screams. After this, he proceeds to freeze Satoshi's neck, and then chokes him.)
Hanzo Hasashi: If you touch a hair on his head...
(Bi-Han/Sub-Zero (Quan Chi) then looks at Hanzo angrily prepared to kill Satoshi, while he yells for help.)
Satoshi Hasashi: Papa!
(And then Bi-Han/Sub-Zero (Quan Chi) stabs Satoshi behind the neck off-camera, then Hanzo gets shocked for Bi-Han/Sub-Zero's action.)
Satoshi Hasashi: (weakly) Papa.
(Satoshi's blood is shown in Bi-Han's face)
Hanzo Hasashi: Satoshi! Satoshi!
Satoshi Hasashi: (coughs blood from his mouth since his neck got punctured and speaks his last word weakly.) Papa.
(And then Bi-Han lets go of Satoshi and drops him dead. Then Satoshi's corpse fell on the ground spilling blood.)
Hanzo Hasashi: (crying) Satoshi. Satoshi! Satoshi!
(As Hanzo cries for his dead son, Bi-Han (Quan Chi) shakes his fingers to wear off Satoshi's blood from his hands. Then Hanzo gets mad at Bi-Han (Quan Chi) thinking it was Bi-Han.)
Hanzo Hasashi: (angrily) I'll kill you! I'll kill you!
(And then Hanzo struggles to free his arms by breaking the ice picks, and as Bi-Han (Quan Chi) hears Hanzo plans to escape, he walks to Hanzo after Hanzo freed his arms. Then Bi-Han (Quan Chi) creates an ice pick with his hand.)
Hanzo Hasashi: (crying in anger) You'll die for this.
Bi-Han/Sub-Zero (Quan Chi): You first.
(And Bi-Han (Quan Chi) stabbed Hanzo in the mouth killing him and the X-ray scene shows that Hanzo is stabbed cracking his skull that the ice pick punctured the big ice killing Hanzo causing his blood to fall off the ice, the scene zooms and it shows a leak of blood falling in the puddle of blood. Then the movie title Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge is shown and the black background has fire. Then a stormy day happens in the Shaolin Temple, and in the next scene it shows Liu Kang meditating until the wind blows the candles, and then Liu Kang must prepare himself, Raiden attacks him while Liu Kang doesn't pay attention, and then he closes his eyes to feel Raiden's attack, and then counterattacks Raiden by a surprising way and is about to kill him but the thunderstorm showed his face and he refrains.)
Liu Kang: Lord Raiden! (backs off for a while) I'm sorry. I... I didn't know.
Raiden: No, you did well, Liu Kang. Just as you were taught. And now, I pray it is enough.
(Then Raiden uses his power to turn on the candles.)
Liu Kang: Enough? Then it is time.
Raiden: Yes. Do not worry. We have prepared for this moment for a long time. I chose you for a reason, Liu Kang. Now, the others will be gathering. We must hurry.
Liu Kang: Lord Raiden, what others?
(The scene fades in black and then it shows Johnny Cage's mansion which in the inside it's messy with a lot of stuff. Johnny Cage's girlfriend is leaving. Johnny Cage is seen wearing a dark red robe.)
Johnny Cage: No, no, listen. We can make this work, I promise. What do I have to do, huh?
Johnny Cage's girlfriend: (angrily) How about cleaning this hell-hole you call a home? How about doing something besides crying about your career? (throws a shirt at Johnny Cage) You only care about yourself! It's all about Johnny Cage. Call me when you grow up. (closes the door in anger.)
Johnny Cage: So, I can still call her then. That's a W.
(Johnny Cage walks to his couch as the scene shows a crumbled eviction note and then sits in his couch as he drinks his red wine and gurgles as he looks his own movie posters and his picture of his victory. Then his cellphone rings and as he attempts to find it, he found it in the empty top box of pizzas and then he answers the phone call.)
Johnny Cage: Hey! You're in the cage with Johnny. (walks outside to the terrace of his mansion) Oh, well. If it isn't my long-lost agent. It's about time you called. Of course I'm interested in something different. What have I been telling you? Yeah. China? Uh-huh. All right, well, what about an advance? Uh, things have gotten a little... Little tight around here. (then suddenly his phone beeped as it was running out of battery) Hello? Hello. Well, I'm off to China! (rises his arms of excitement.)
(Then the next scene transitions to China in the night with a helicopter flying. And then it shows an alley with people around, then a person walks with money, then goes around the people past them and pays his bet. Then it shows many people smiling, holding their money.
Guy: Kick him in the face!
(Then the scene shows Sonya Blade fighting a thug. She kneels him, then punches him in the face and kicks him in the stomach knocking him out, but not long as he got up growling. And the people cheer for Sonya.)
Sonya Blade: You gonna keep crying like a bitch or fight like a man?
(The thug enraged at what she said and begins to run at her until she evades his punch and punches him in the chin, then dodges his punch and punches him in the stomach, and as she attempts to kick him, he grabs her leg and throws her away but only to grab Sonya's hanging badges on her neck and then headbutts her to throw her to the ground much to an old person's disappointed face as he gave the money to a guy wearing a hat with a red star.)
Thug: Yeah, yeah, that's right. This is no place for a little girl. (his phrase echoes) This is no place for a little girl... This is no place for a little girl...
(Sonya remembering these exact words begins to remember what Jax said in the past.)
Jackson "Jax" Briggs: This is no place for little girls.
(Sonya taunts Jax with a mischievous smile and then endures Jax's yellings.)
Sonya Blade: Hmm.
Jackson "Jax" Briggs: Do you think this is funny? Congratulations, cadet. You've just become my new pet project.
(Sonya smiles with agreement about being Jax's soldier.)
(Then a black scene gets holes indicating that Sonya is practicing target shooting as a military officer checks his list.)
Jackson "Jax" Briggs: You think you're pretty special, don't you, princess?
(Then Sonya and the soldiers are shown running and she seems tired. Jax checks his list.)
Sonya Blade: Sir! My name is Sonya Blade, and I'm going to be the best soldier you've ever met! Sir!
(Then she is shown boxing a man and she defeats him much to Jax's impressiveness.)
Jackson "Jax" Briggs: We'll see about that.
(Then Sonya comes to Jax's office.)
Sonya Blade: You wanted to see me, sir?
Jackson "Jax" Briggs: Yes, I did. I'm putting together a task force. High-level spec ops stuff. Are you in?
(As Jax offers his hand, Sonya shakes her hand to Jax's as she approves his idea and smiles. Then the flashback ends as she was on the ground. The Thug was ready to stomp on her face until she kicked him in the face and she spinned back to her position.)
Thug: I'm gonna kill you!
Sonya Blade: You're gonna try.
(Then as the Thug punches Sonya, she dodges and counterattacks him with her elbow, then he punches her again 2 times, but only for her to avoid them, he kicks her but she blocks it and then she jumps and punches him in the face.)
Man: Yeah!
(The Thug punches her, but was parried by Sonya Blade, she punches him, then kicks him in the stomach, and next, she grabs the Thug's neck with her legs and throws him to the red car frontal window shattering it.)
Man: That's my car!
(The people cheer for Sonya, but the Thug grabs and rips a metal pipe to attack her with it.)
Thug: Not yet, whore.
(As the Thug hits Sonya, she evades the metal pipe and then elbows him in the face, takes the metal pipe and hits him with it in his stomach, rendering him weak as she jumps and hits Thug's jaw knocking some of his teeth and the Thug's broken teeth and his blood can be seen as he's freaked out of losing his teeth and his nostrils bleed.)
Thug: My teeth! My teeth!
Sonya Blade: Honestly, it's an improvement.
(Prepares to knock him out with a stomp kick.)
Thug: Oh, shit!
(Sonya Blade stomp kicks Thug in the jaw knocking some teeth out, and then knocking him out to the ground. The old man snatches the money from the man with a star hat. Then Thug makes his last groan of defeat as everyone cheers for Sonya.)
Everyone: (chanting for Sonya's name) Sonya, Sonya, Sonya, Sonya, Sonya!
(An agent is seen wanting to see Sonya Blade.)
(Then Sonya Blade reads what it says on the scroll)
Sonya Blade: He'll be there? If he's not, there's no way on Earth you'll be able to hide from me. Understand?
(Sonya gets close to the agent intimidating him as she leaves him and then the scene fades black as Hanzo wakes up in the Netherrealm, wearing brown loincloth, his wrists and ankles were punctured by scythe chains as it indicates his soul was teleported to the Netherrealm.)
Hanzo Hasashi: Satoshi. Harumi. What is this? Where am I?
(Hanzo attempts to free himself, but he only gets to scream of pain due to the scythe point hurting his wrist. Then a demon torturer that resembles Moloch's body appearance comes to visit Hanzo.)
Demon Torturer: Don't start without me. Ah! Fresh meat. (licks his sword to clean it.)
Hanzo Hasashi: What in the hell...
Demon Torturer: Close. Netherrealm.
(Hanzo attempts again to free himself, but only to spill some of his own blood in his injured wrists.)
Demon Torturer: It's no use. You are a prisoner here.
Hanzo Hasashi: For how long?
Demon Torturer: (chuckles evilly) Forever. (points his sword at one side) Listen.
(Human screams of pain and fear are heard far far away.)
Demon Torturer: Ah! Do you hear it? The symphony of pain. Your voice will soon join the others, rising up to please the great Shinnok.
Hanzo Hasashi: Shinnok?
Demon Torturer: The master of Netherrealm.
(The scene zooms to this only floating section where Shinnok resided)
Demon Torturer: There. The only place of reprieve in this realm. Look on it and weep. (chuckles evilly and makes a cut on his hand with a sharp Netherrealm sword and spills his boiling blood on the ground, Hanzo looks at what he did) Sharp enough.
(Hanzo attempts once again to free himself, but this time, he manages to injure himself once more spilling a lot of blood and groans painfully)
Demon Torturer: (points his sword at Hanzo under his chin) Calm yourself. Save your energy for what is about to come.
(The Demon Torturer stabs Hanzo in the right side of his body spilling blood as he screams in pain)
Demon Torturer: Now you see, you feel pain, though you can no longer perish.
(Hanzo grabs the sickle with his right hand despite it being stuck on his right wrist.)
Demon Torturer: We can do this for all eternity.
(Hanzo mumbles quietly much to the Demon Torturer's wondering.)
Demon Torturer: Huh? What is it you say?
(Hanzo continues mumbling, as the Demon Torturer gets his ear near Hanzo's mouth to hear what he says.)
Demon Torturer: Is that a prayer? (laughs evilly) No. No God can help you here.
Hanzo Hasashi: I need no God!
(With enough time, he bites the Demon Torturer's ear and rips it off as the Demon Torturer covers his injure in pain. Then Hanzo spits in onto a chain to burn it, and then he pulls it to snap it and then with the burnt part of it, he breaks the over and breaks free this time on his feet. Then he takes off the sickles from his feet and throws them off.)
Demon Torturer: (angrily while pointing his sword at Hanzo) I will take pleasure in ripping your flesh from your bones!
(Hanzo looks at the swords and as the Demon Torturer swings his sword at him, he dodges it. And then he starts punching the demon's right knee shattering its knee bone in the X-Ray scene, the demon screams in pain and kneels in one knee. Then Hanzo picks one of the sharpiest swords, and as the demon screams to get Hanzo, he misses, Hanzo punches him in the chin, and then he screams in berserk mode while getting ready to slice the demon, the demon gets shocked about his action that Hanzo sliced his face in half and it got stuck on his belly killing him as the demon's corpse fell on the ground bisected spilling boiling blood, and then Hanzo took a piece of the demon's clothing and wore it himself and then progresses on bandaging his injured wrists and walks.)
Oni: Human, you have made a big mistake.
(Upon looking behind, he sees a thousand of Onis as he covers his face with a mask.)
Oni: There are thousands of us, and only one of you.
(Hanzo uses a chain and starts strangling the Oni with it and decapitates him, as the Oni's head falls down to the ground.)
Hanzo Hasashi: Minus one.
(Then all Onis are roaring at him and they go to attack him, much to Hanzo's anger and thirst for revenge and presumably after the scene zoomed in to his eye, he slaughtered them off camera. Then, the scene shows 2 crows eating a corpse and they fight for their eyeball, and then the floating hellfire place is shown with full of crows, and it transitions to a white skinned sorcerer with black marks and red eyeballs named Quan Chi, sitting on his Netherrealm throne, then a dead Oni's head is thrown on his throne meaning that Hanzo killed them.)
Hanzo Hasashi: Shinnok!
Quan Chi: No, Shinnok is... (stands from his throne) indisposed.
Hanzo Hasashi: Then go fetch him for me.
Quan Chi: If only I could. I am Quan Chi, in charge of this realm until the master's return. And who do I have to thank for ruining my rug?
Hanzo Hasashi: Hanzo Hasashi. 
Quan Chi: Your reputation precedes you, Hanzo Hasashi. Welcome. Though, I'm not entirely sure how you made it here. What is it you want, Hanzo?
Hanzo Hasashi: To return home. To seek my revenge.
Quan Chi: Home? (chuckles evilly) You can't return home. 
Hanzo Hasashi: You will do as I say, or I will flay you alive.
Quan Chi: Did you think me defenseless, dog? In my realm no less. You may be a vengeful spirit, but even they have their limits. Besides, that's not what you really want, is it? Once a generation, there is a tournament. During that time, the veil is lifted, so that warriors may gather to fight on behalf of their realm. I can send you there.
Hanzo Hasashi: Why would I fight for you?
Quan Chi: Because he will be in attendance.
Hanzo Hasashi: What do you want?
Quan Chi: Good, skilled, and smart. (chuckles evilly) Long ago, my master, Shinnok, was unjustly imprisoned. This is the key to his release. It's being kept at the temple of Shang Tsung, the putrid mortal that has the favor of the emperor of Outworld. The tournament will take place on his island. Get me that key. Once my master is released, he can return your family. Even you, back to the mortal realm. Do we understand each other, Hanzo?
Hanzo Hasashi: Hanzo is dead. Call me Scorpion.
Hold the boat! I'm coming!
Coming through. I'm co...
Whoa, whoa...
Hmm.
Mmm?
Hope no fans saw that. I'm wearing slip-ons.
Liu Kang: Lui Kang, of the White Lotus Society.
Johnny Cage: Johnny Cage, of the superstar variety, but you probably knew that. (to Sonya) And you are?
Sonya Blade: Not interested.
Johnny Cage: Oh, you will be. They always are. So, you guys in this thing, too?
Liu Kang: Yes, I have trained many years for this moment.
Johnny Cage: Oh, yeah? Listen, I love acting classes and all, but they're really kind of a time suck. You know what I mean? No? Anyway, my agent said this would really put me back on the map. Kind of a back-end-deal-type-of-thing. Should be fun.
We are approaching the veil.
Johnny Cage: Who is that? Let me guess. He's kind of like our, uh, Merlin.
That is Lord Raiden. Protector of Earthrealm.
Johnny Cage: Boom! Nailed it. Wait, Earthrealm? Did you guys get a script already or something? Look, I'd love a copy. I have no idea what you're talking about, but I am pretty good at improv. So, uh...
Lord Raiden, right?
Good to meet you.
So, tell me more about this veil.
The space between realms, to prevent Outworld from merging with Earthrealm.
Prevented by what?
Always the soldier, evaluating risks.
What guards the veil is of less consequence than why it does so.
If Shao Kahn wins this tournament, Earth, as you know it, will cease to exist.
Johnny Cage: Not to fear, Lord Raiden. I, Johnny Cage, will make sure that Earthrealm, so dumb, will be safe from harm. You have my word on it.
Liu Kang: Lord Raiden, these are the champions you gathered?
Raiden: You doubt my choices?
Liu Kang: No, I just meant...
Raiden: You see only what is in front of you, Lui Kang, but your eyes deceive you. It is what is inside that matters.
Sonya Blade, a most formidable warrior. She has had to prove herself against many who thought she was nothing more than a weak girl. Believe me, she is anything but.
And him? He only seems to be concerned about himself and material wealth.
That will keep him alive, until he finds something more to care about. Something greater than himself to live for.
Are you kidding me? I paid extra for international, and I can't even get a signal.
Uh, Raiden, are getting one?
What in the...
Stay in the vessel.
It is under Lord Raiden's protection.
Out there, there's nothing good.
Oh, right.
Paparazzi.
We've arrived.
Look.
That must be the bad guy.
One at a time, everybody. One at a time.
Brought enough for everyone. Okay.
Where'd you guys put my trailer? I'd like to freshen up before we start shooting.
Ugh.
He has no idea what he is doing.
Should we tell him?
Raiden: His journey is one of discovery. Besides, I find it amusing.
Quan Chi: Remember our deal, Scorpion.
Whoa.
Yeah! Yeah!
Raiden: Be on guard. Shang Tsung is not to be trusted.
Johnny Cage: Oh, look! Craft services. Great! (to Nitara) Hey, do you know if any of this stuff is organic? (Nitara hisses at him) Just asking. Geez!
Quan Chi: Now is your chance.
Shang Tsung: In the beginning, were the elder Gods. In their wisdom, they created a tournament to safeguard each realm from the threat of invasion. Once a generation, the finest warriors must do battle to decide the fate of their realm. The winner will be granted long life and great power. If one realm wins the tournament ten times, they will have the right to merge with the other, and rule as they see fit. I, Shang Tsung, emissary of the great Shao Kahn, emperor of Outworld, winner of the last nine tournaments against Earthrealm, welcome you to Mortal Kombat.
(The Kombatants all cheer in delight.)
Kombatant: Mortal Kombat!
Shang Tsung: Now, as host of this tournament, I think it only fitting that I provide you with some… entertainment.
Kano.
Sonya Blade: Jax! Jax! Listen, you son of a bitch, you better open this, whatever it is, or I'm gonna use your ass as my own personal punching bag.
Oh, that is so hot.
Princess.
Asshole.
I told you to wait for me.
I got excited.
You got caught by that idiot Kano.
Yeah, that too.
Unless you want me to rip that pencil-thin mustache off your face, I think it's best you let me go, old man.
Shang Tsung: Absolutely. You are free to leave at any time. The doorway is right there. Of course, you have to get past my champion.
Kombatant: (chanting) Goro! Goro! Goro!
Crowd: (chanting) Goro! Goro! Goro!
What the hell?
Jax! No!
Relax, kid. I've got this. (to Goro) All right, ugly. You wanna dance? Let's dance.
I wouldn't.
Let me guess. Quan Chi promised you life if you would do his bidding. 
Ah... No. 
Not you. Someone else. Someone you lost. Someone you care about. Do you think Quan Chi is a man to be trusted?
Scorpion: What choice do I have?
Raiden: We all have choices. Live in the past, or live for the future. The key won't solve your problems. It will, however, create new ones.
Scorpion: And my revenge?
Raiden: Revenge is too heavy a burden to carry. You are a free man. It's time you start acting like it.
Really, Goro, you shouldn't
play with your food.
Stop it! You'll kill him.
That's the idea.
Finish him.
No!
Yeah!
Pfft! Fake. These special effects suck.
Enough!
You forget yourself, Lord Raiden. You are not to interfere in the tournament.
Raiden: I was unaware the tournament had begun. We are here for Mortal Kombat, not your barbarism.
As you wish.
Kano!
Jax! Hold on! I'm coming for you! You hear me? No matter what! I'm coming for you!
Johnny Cage: Wow! She's great. I mean, that is some serious method acting there. Am I right?
I can see we're all anxious
to get started.
Good.
I have determined your opponents and where on the island you will fight. Let Mortal Kombat begin!
Uh... Okay.
That was weird.
Did someone slip me something?
Or... Holy shit!
Hello? Sonya?
Lord Reagan? Radar? Whatever your name is. This thing better not go straight to video.
Gunpowder?
Must be some sort of old fortress.
Bingo.
Hard as a fossil.
No craft services, no trailers.
My agent is gonna hear about this when I get home.
Sheesh.
Hello?
I should at least get a per diem.
Oh, hey, how's it goin'?
That... That is one hell of a costume.
Uh... Are we live?
Like, you wanna do this now?
Whoa, buddy, pro-tip.
Uh, next time, pop a few mints.
Whoa! Whoa! Go easy!
We haven't even rehearsed.
Hey, asshole!
That was custom! Dick.
And barrel.
Eat me, buttercup.
Toasty.
Come on! Face me like a man!
All right, asshole. Let's see what you've got.
Not so fun now, is it, you cold-blooded bastard?
Heads up!
Fuck with the Blade, you're gonna get cut.
You move like the Shirai Ryu.
But they're dead.
Who are you? What do you want?
Scorpion: Revenge!
Tell me, Lin Kuei scum, where is Sub-Zero?
Die, knowing I will kill every last member of the Lin Kuei on this island.
Every last one.
You are Raiden's chosen one.
No wonder your realm has lost so many tournaments.
I do not wish to hurt you.
Spare me your pity.
Do not get up.
I take no pleasure in hurting such a worthy foe.
But, know this. I will do whatever it takes to defend Earthrealm, and win this tournament.
Then you are a fool. Shao Kahn cannot be defeated. He will take your world, and you will bow your knee like countless others before you.
I promise you, I will never bow before that madman.
I yield.
What makes you so sure you will win?
Because I have something no one in Outworld has.
What?
Hope.
Shang Tsung: Impressive, Raiden. Your warriors have made it further than I would have thought.
Raiden: They are strong in spirit, Shang Tsung. You will not win today.
I have heard such promises before.
Thankfully, after Goro kills whomever makes it to the final round,
I will not have to hear them again.
And, Quan Chi, your warrior from Netherrealm, he is proving to be quite formidable.
For the glory of Outworld, I serve at the pleasure of Shao Kahn.
Indeed.
You won't succeed.
No matter how many foes you put between the Earthrealm fighters and your champion, they will make it to the end.
Oh? I'm glad you feel that way.
Surely you know of the Black Dragon.
It seems that several have made it onto the island with orders to kill your Earthrealm friends.
Raiden: How dare you?
Shang Tsung: Are you accusing me of something, Lord Raiden?
Raiden: You brought them here to interfere with the tournament!
Shang Tsung: And break the rules? Even I am not so bold as to anger the elder Gods in such a way.
Raiden: You will not succeed, Shang Tsung.
Shang Tsung: We'll know soon enough, won't we?
Johnny Cage: What I wouldn't give for a frozen margarita.
Hey!
Really?
I know, look at this shirt. It's ridiculous.
I'm glad to see you, though.
Okay, you won't believe this, but this isn't some sort of movie. This is the real deal. Maybe a snuff film or something. I don't know. But I had to fight some, uh… I don't even know what it was. I barely got out alive.
I can believe that.
Listen, I'll get you out of here, but we'll need to stick together.
First rule of combat is to secure our position.
Let's find somewhere to hole up, and then we can start recon. Find out where we are, what we are up against.
A sound strategy.
You both made it. Good.
I fear it's only going to get harder from here.
Johnny Cage: Whoa. Wait, what's gonna get harder? I just fought a walking pair of teeth on the side of a mountain. I'm not Tom Cruise, you know. I act. I leave that stunt shit for the stunt people. Listen, sweetheart, we should get out of here… (Sonya kicks him in the crotch) Oh, my... dick.
Sonya Blade: Fuckballs, no one touches me without permission, you got it?
Johnny Cage: (in pain) Got it.
You said you knew where we were?
I do.
But it will be dark soon.
We need to make camp. Rest.
Agreed.
Johnny Cage: (in pain) No, no. Don't wait for me. I'm fine. Let me just pee out some blood first.
What the fuck?
I think I'm gonna be sick.
Stay behind me. I'll take care of this.
What is this, 1950?
Step back, Bruce Lee.
Bring it, bitch.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, everyone just chillax, okay?
No one needs to fight anyone.
Especially some guy that just went psycho on a bunch of, uh...
Black Dragon. Mercenaries.
Assassins. Bad guys.
Yeah, those guys.
We have to continue.
Once Mortal Kombat has been declared, it must be finished.
Did you declare Mortal Kombat?
Did you?
Nope.
What about you, Mister...
Scorpion: Scorpion.
Oh, it's catchy. I like that.
Did you declare Mortal Kombat?
Good. Good. Great! Then no one needs to die.
Sheesh.
Now, who's hungry?
I know you didn't believe it before, but it's all true.
The elder Gods, the tournament, everything.
Emperor Shao Kahn has won nine previous Mortal Kombat tournaments.
If he wins a tenth...
Then what?
Then you all die.
Great. Just great.
Yeah. Okay, monsters, magic, this can't be real.
Somebody must have slipped something into my drink. I'm hallucinating.
Get a grip, Johnny.
Whatever this is, it's real.
There's no use sitting around and whining about it.
If what Lui Kang says is true, then the whole world is in trouble, and we have to stop it.
If I can get to a radio, a communications array, I can call in reinforcements.
Turn this island into the next cautionary tale.
If only it were that easy.
Lord Raiden.
You.
What do you mean, "If only it were that easy"?
Do you know what a Hellfire missile can do?
I'm sure it's very powerful on Earth.
But we are not on Earth.
This island lives in a place between realms.
A place set aside specifically for the tournament.
Johnny Cage: Uh-huh. Sure. Sounds great. So, if what Liu Kang says is true, then you're really some sort of God, right?
Raiden: I have been given many names.
Johnny Cage: Well, shoot, Buddha! Snap your fingers. Get us home! I'm done with psycho monsters and bad food. And by the way, I'll never complain about doing a sequel again in my life.
He cannot.
Lord Raiden is forbidden from interfering in the tournament.
It is a bargain he made to save Earthrealm from being taken over eons ago.
Well, that's insane. The fate of the world is being decided by some sort of karate tournament?
Are you kidding me?
You are the only hope left for Earthrealm.
Head toward the temple where your final battles await… and your destinies will be made clear.
But be on guard. There are others on this island who will try to keep you from the final round.
Johnny Cage: Great. So, uh, we are screwed.
If Lord Raiden believes we can make it, we can.
No, you can't.
Well, you seem very fun, Mr. Scorpion.
Shang Tsung has the numbers.
He has that... monster.
Go. Hide in the jungle until it is over.
And let Earth be destroyed?
Sorry, pal. I took an oath to defend it, no matter the odds.
He would not understand, Sonya.
Someone such as him, has never known anything worth dying for.
You cannot survive.
My will is strong. My destiny is my own.
You are as naive, as you are doomed.
I have waited here too long.
Know that the next time we meet, it will not end well.
Well, that was cheery.
Shut up, botox.
I'm just sayin', he really killed the vibe around here.
I was just...
Shutting up. Yep.
Scorpion was right about one thing, we've rested long enough.
We must continue on.
I've found them.
So, we're here, now what?
Oh, great. This is fair.
The rules state that it must be single combat.
These lads aren't here for the tournament.
They've been paid to kill you.
Hello, love.
Nice to see you again. Mwah.
Why don't you come over here and I'll give you a hug?
Well, you'd do a better job than Jax.
I guess Raiden was wrong.
Oh, you think?
No, stay together.
We'll survive. We have to.
Johnny Cage: Yeah, we better. I need to make it home, so I can kill my agent.
Be ready.
For what?
Aah!
You see? I knew he liked us.
Stay down!
I know how to fight...
Sure you do. Just stay down.
Oh, man, is she hot!
Down!
Kano: Huh? What gives?
Sub Zero (Bi Han): You dishonor this tournament.
Scorpion: You will die for what you did!
Scorpion: That's for my clan! This is for my wife! And this is for my son.
Screw it. He's not paying me enough for this.
Kano!
Go, save your partner.
Sonya.
Partner?
Raiden said your destiny would be clear.
So, there she is.
You know what, I guess I don't mind having my balls crushed. By her, I mean.
Doesn't make it any better.
Quan Chi: I'm disappointed. I brought you here for one purpose. And you have failed me. You're as weak as your wife was. As your child. Yes, you fool. It wasn't Sub-Zero at all. I killed them. It was easy. I used sorcery to hide my identity. To make the Lin Kuei do as I wanted. You are strong, Scorpion. But not immortal. I think I'll leave you here. Just like I left your son. To be eaten by the birds.
Satoshi Hasashi: Papa, the scorpion, it needs help.
Hanzo Hasashi: Do you know why the scorpion is feared? Its will.
Come on, Sonya, darling.
Just a bit further.
Jax.
Sonya?
I'm so glad you made it.
It's gonna be a joy to watch you end up like your partner.
You think I'm afraid of you?
Bring it on.
Fuck.
Raiden: Shang Tsung.
Shang Tsung: Ah, I'm impressed, Raiden.
You were right.
He has great spirit. 
And even greater skill.
Please, we both know yours is a lost cause.
Goro!
I'll make you a deal, Liu Kang. Yield, and Shao Kahn will grant you mercy. You can come to Outworld. Live as a king. We shall show you every pleasure.
Liu Kang: Is that how Shao Kahn got you to betray your world? I am not as weak as you, Shang Tsung.
Shang Tsung: Then you shall die. Fight!
Whoo! Oh.
Poor Raiden. It must be awful to watch your beloved chosen one die, and be unable to do anything about it.
The fight is not over yet.
It may as well be.
Quan Chi, goblets.
Let us toast to our Emperor's impending victory.
Splendid idea.
Now, Lui Kang, you can do better than that.
For Outworld.
For Shao Kahn.
Now, finish her!
Here's Johnny.
Argh!
Johnny?
Johnny Cage: Don't worry, babe. I got this. All right, boys. Picture's up, roll sound. And action!
Impossible.
Holy shit. Johnny Cage can fight.
Save some for me.
I told you, you'd come around.
Ugh...
Ha!
Eat it.
Well done. Truly, I underestimated you. But... 
I am bored now. Goro, play time is over.
Aah!
Kano!
Stay back!
I'll slit his throat.
Aah!
Jackson "Jax" Briggs: Wait a minute. Now we can go.
Aah!
Shang Tsung: Yes. Yes. You see, Quan Chi, the key to winning is always being a few steps ahead of your enemies.
(He pours the poison out of his goblet, much to Quan Chi’s shock and horror.)
Shang Tsung: Did you think I didn't know you'd betray your Emperor, Quan Chi?
Quan Chi: You're mistaken. I would never...
Shang Tsung: All for what? This? He's been imprisoned for a reason, Quan Chi. Your sad devotion to the mad God Shinnok, makes you as pathetic as he is. Soon, Earthrealm will be Shao Kahn's, and his destiny will be complete. It's too bad you won't live long enough to see it. (to Goro) Finish him.
Goro: (chuckles evilly) Does it hurt? Soon, your weak species will be no more.
Shang Tsung: Who dares?
Liu Kang: Scorpion.
Quan Chi: Impossible.
Shang Tsung: It would seem I underestimated your champion, Quan Chi. (to Scorpion) You are Scorpion of Netherrealm, yes? You have killed Goro. Thus you must take your rightful place as the champion of Outworld.
Scorpion: I want nothing to do with your game. (refers to Quan Chi) I've come for him.
Shang Tsung: Interesting. Defeat Liu Kang, and you can have Quan Chi to do with as you wish. Defeat Lui Kang, and my emperor will give you all that you dream of.
Liu Kang: Vengeance is not the way, Scorpion.
Shang Tsung: Of course it is, and it's yours. All you have to do is kill him. Good. Good. What choice did he really have, Lord Raiden?
Raiden: There's always another choice.
Shang Tsung: Now. Fight. What are you doing?
Scorpion: Living for the future. Give me the key.
Shang Tsung: You fool. Shao Kahn will hear about this and kill you.
Scorpion: I'm already dead. Lui Kang. I yield.
Shang Tsung: No.
Raiden: Then the tournament is finished. Outworld has lost. Earthrealm is safe.
Shang Tsung: I will kill you all.
Raiden: The tournament is over, Shang Tsung. I am no longer bound by rules of non-interference. Return to your Emperor. Tell him of your failure.
Shang Tsung: You have made a mistake, Lord Raiden. Emperor Shao Kahn will have his revenge.
Raiden: I'm counting on it.
No.
Without Shang Tsung's power, the island will collapse.
We must go.
What about Scorpion?
His path lies elsewhere.
But...
Now.
I knew you would survive.
I chose you for a reason.
Give me the key and we can leave this place before it is destroyed.
Scorpion: Come take it. Like you did my family.
Quan Chi: Very well. But please, put up more of a fight than your wife did.
I'm going to finish the job
my demons couldn't.
Die, you wretched vermin.
It's time to die.
Indeed.
Johnny Cage: Liu, Lord Randy. Need a lift?
Scorpion: Get over here.
Quan Chi: My God will avenge me.
Scorpion: Damn your God.
So, is that it?
Did we win?
For now.
All right! Yeah!
Uh... May I?
All right, yeah. Mmm.
Hmm, cinnamon.
Mmm, yeah, pat me there.
Doesn't mean I'm gonna break the hug.
That's enough.
Okay.
Think she'll ever like me?
Jackson "Jax" Briggs: She didn't hit you in the nuts, did she?
Johnny Cage: Yes, she did, Jax. Yes, she did.
Liu Kang: I have failed you. I could not defeat Goro. If it wasn't for Scorpion...
Raiden: Failed? No. Your destiny was never to defeat Goro, Lui Kang. It was to defeat Shao Kahn.
Shao Kahn: You have failed me.
Shang Tsung: I'm sorry, Master. It was that old fool, Raiden. He...
Shao Kahn: Silence! Gather our forces. It's time to end this game… once and for all.
