Story: It has to be Raiden. After I finally defeated Shao Kahn, I was months later rewarded by the Thunder God with death. Raiden killed me and made sure I never existed. I had to miss out the incidents until Shinnok resurrected me along with Onaga the Dragon King. Though uneasy I've became allies with Onaga, and fair rivals. After Raiden's death to fail in stopping Onaga from being freed, that God won't be bothering me again. I think I recalled about this person similar to Shang Tsung. His name is Shujinko. He knows many kombat skills but denied mine because I was seen evil. Who is he to judge me evil? I had to fight Shang Tsung and Shao Kahn two times. Raiden must've warned him about this. Either way, I am done being nice. I was treated to being evil, so I will make my stand in the name of Onaga. After all in his words, "Do not forget who betray you. If you are seen as evil, then let that side of yours awaken."
Ending (Shujinko as Final Boss): "I have finally done it! Shujinko posed a threat after much encounters but I have beaten him. Fortunately, Onaga managed to deceived him to think he is a good friend, and get him to not be hostile against me. I was successful, and Onaga has finally achieved awesome power. Afterwards I became his loyal servant in helping reclaim the Throne. Shao Kahn is no more, and now Earthrealm is next on our list to destroy."

Fatalities not listed here because of 'Kreate-a-Fatality' system.
Story: "And so the Final Battle has begun, to teach them the consequences of their selfishness and greed. I have defeated Shujinko who posed a threat against Onaga the Dragon King, and my new master since he made me his servant and his pupil. Most of my former friends who came from the Special Forces, or the White Louts tries to convince me to come back, but it was too late for them. I told them that asked why I betrayed them to ask Raiden for what he did. After defeating Shao Kahn for the second time, it was Raiden three months later that executed me before the rise of Shinnok. Thankfully he brought me back. With my new powers and new weapons, I've begun my conquest and see Onaga at first as my Rival, but then turned into his servant and I accepted the Dragon King's gift which he give the same to Shujinko. After sharing my words, most of Raiden's allies cut ties, making him much weaker, especially these Elder Goods they call almost trying to strip Raiden of his powers. I now enter the final journey when the Pyramid appears, where Blaze issues a challenge. I can also tell Taven wants to keep me from the tournament as he was warned by that Former Elder God, since I was warned he cannot be trusted. Either way, I'm going to fight my way to defeat this Blaze, and win this Power."
Ending (Raiden as Final Boss/In the words of Onaga): "I am pleased to know that Dirk has defeated Raiden, and stole the powers of Blaze. Though he is no longer undead, he has become much powerful than I thought, equal to mine. I made him my newest General to help me reclaiming Outworld. We both share the common enemy Shao Kahn, but also the Earth Realms who will know the Consequences. After I took back Outworld whom Kahn stolen, and ensure the Usurper prisoned and tortured, we, Dirk and I, set our sights on Earthrealm. Raiden is no more, and Earth Realm is finally conquered. But the first part of the Conquest is far from over. Now, we shall explore and conquer all other Realms. No other warriors will dare to challenge me or my pupil. Their Game is over."

Mortal Kombat (2011) "After slaying Shao Kahn, Dirk finally faces his brother Falchion for the last time. The permanent influences had him Enraged after seeing his believed-father Shao Kahn eradicated, but bested by Dirk once again. The result came with a shocking revelation. Kahn's defeat causes his broad axes to absord so much dark magic, it transformed each into demonic broad axes, both soulbinded so not even the gods can take it away. Dirk discards his kickboxing style and puts the tools into good use, finally punishing those who bullied him, and treated him like dirt. Soon, the modern age will fear him as the Anti-Paladin."

Mortal Kombat 11: "With the Kronica goddess defeated, I am able to claim the legendary artifact, known as the Hourglass. Using it would alter the past but change the future. I managed to research the alternate simulation to learn what Raiden means about his past, and it was there I discovered the terrible timeline. If Raiden hadn't been warned, I would be assassinated and become Dragon King Onaga's loyal servant. Knowing my realm could be next, Raiden created an alternate timeline so he and I can go there. We were able to meet the other timeline Raiden and prevent him from killing my other self. Thus creating a correct time paradox, and it was the proper decision. The other me survived through most major battles, all the way to where Blaze raises the Temple. It also revealed the discovery of where the final battle will take place as warned by the other me. With sufficient info, it's high time we prepare the confrontation of Blaze, and put an end to whichever evil he is planning."
