Chapter 1: Shinnok's vision
In the pits of the Netherrealm, the former Elder god Shinnok sat on his throne while planning his accession to Earthrealm. Long ago he was defeated by Raiden and banished to
Netherrealm by the Elder gods for all eternity. He was beaten and tortured by the former lord Lucifer until Quan Chi helped him defeat him. With the sorcerer's help, he became the new
ruler of the Netherrealm. He had desired to rule Earthrealm as well, and to do that he needed his powerful amulet.
Many years later, the sorcerer had a Lin Kuei warrior named Sub-Zero to find the amulet and bring it back to him. During his quest, he encountered his rival Scorpion and killed him.
Raiden had told the young warrior that the more he helped Quan Chi and Shinnok, the more his soul will be tainted with evil. Eventually he would fight against Quan Chi and Shinnok
with help form their former servant Sareena.
During the aftermath of Shinnok's defeat, Sub-Zero would go on to compete in Mortal Kombat and where he encountered Scorpion again, however Scorpion was nothing more but a hell
spawned bent on revenge. He was successful in killing his murderer and when Sub-Zero descended into the Netherrealm, he would find himself under the control of Shinnok. He was
turned into a wraith and renamed Noob Saibot.
Sometime later Shinnok had rise again and fought against Raiden and Liu Kang. He was defeated once again and Quan Chi himself was hunted by Scorpion for the death his family and
clan. Shinnok had also saw a vision that Noob Saibot's brother, the current Sub-Zero had cleansed his soul and return his memories after the battle with Argus's son Taven. . With his
memories returned, he would become threat to him.
"Shinnok what visions did you see?" asked Quan Chi
Shinnok slammed his fist, "I saw Noob Saibot, he is going to defy me and his brother will seek a reunion with him to overthrow me."
Quan Chi rubbed his chin "And what of Scorpion? Did you see any visions of him?"
"Yes I have actually. My vision of Scorpion was of him hunting you and eventually bringing you your demise" he replied.
"Will there be an alliance between Scorpion and Noob Saibot? If that happens, it may be the end of us" said Quan Chi.
Shinnok laughed at that comment "Never, Noob Saibot may have regained his memories but he will never align himself with Scorpion. Not even his younger brother will be able to bring
them together. We should use that to our advantage. We will leave for Outworld and incite a riot in the Netherrealm. While Scorpion and Noob Saibot battle in the Netherrealm, we will
finish Sub-Zero."
Quan Chi laughed, "That is an excellent plan and while we are at it, I will annihilate the entire Lin Kuei as well."
Drahmin and Moloch appeared before Quan Chi and Shinnok. The two Oni had struck a deal with him and promised to protect him from Scorpion.
"You called for us Quan Chi?" asked Drahmin
"Yes, I need you to fend off Scorpion and Noob Saibot. We are on our way to Outworld to regain out strength. Then we will head to Earthrealm to finish off Sub-zero and the Lin Kuei
for good. Do not fail me! Noob Saibot and Scorpion must not leave here."
Quan Chi chanted a spell that opened a portal to Outworld. He and Shinnok jumped through it. The two Oni must now turn their attention to the undead warriors Noob Saibot, and
Scorpion.
