But l’m sure I can help you find him.

- Out of my way.

- Just another starstruck fan, huh?

———————————————————

- lt’s an honor to finally meet you, Sonya.

Shang Tsung at your service.

- l'm looking for a murderer.

He boarded this ship.

- l'm impressed.

But it is my boat, and if you'd like a tour...

l'd love to give it to you myself.

- Be nice to the lady.

She's doing her job.

- When l want back-up..

l'll radio for it.

- Got that radio handy?

- Scorpion and Sub-Zero.

Deadliest of enemies...

but slaves under my power.

- Move aside.

- Enough!

- Lord Raiden.

How good of you to grace us with your...

presence.

- Your sideshow freaks attacked my fighters.

That is expressly forbidden before the tournament...

as your emperor well knows.

- My sincere apologies.

lt won't happen again, l promise you.

- l shall see to that.

- Of course.

Until we reach the island...

where you have no dominion.

- My dominions are well known to me,

sorcerer. Thank you.

- What tournament?

- You've been chosen, Sonya.

Much to my delight.

- You really are Raiden.

- Come with me.

———————————————————

- Got a guy with things comin out of his hand, we got another guy who freezes stuff...

and then there’s man, who as far as I can tell, is made out of electricity.

I mean, how did he disappear like that, what's going on here, who is this guy?!

- Let's just think this through.

There is a rational explanation for this.

- He's Raiden.

God of Lightning & Protector of the Realm of Earth.

- Great.

- There's your rational explanation.

- Listen.

What you're about to face

is vastly more important than...

your ego...

your enemy...

or your quest for revenge.

You have embarked on a sacred mission.

You have been chosen to defend

the Realm of Earth...

in a tournament called Mortal Kombat.

- Defend it from who?

- Your world is but one of many realms.

One of them is a forsaken land

called Outworld...

ruled by an immortal

who has crowned himself emperor.

Now he seeks a new world

to conquer and enslave.

- Now, wait a second.

lf this guy is so powerful...

then why doesn't he just invade us?

- To enter the Realm of Earth

the Emperor's demon sorcerer,

Shang Tsung...

and his warriors have to win 10 straight

victories in Mortal Kombat.

They have won nine.

This will be the tenth tournament.

- A handful of people on a leaky boat

are going to save the world?

- Exactly.

The essence of Mortal Kombat...

is not about death...

but life.

Mortal men and women

defending your own world.

- Why are you telling us all this?

What about the others?

- They are all great fighters...

but l have looked into their souls...
