Chapter 4: Shao Khan's Alternative Plan

Shao Khan was prepared to find a shard of the Master Emerald that'd help him get into the realm of planet Mobius. Sektor was already searching the Nether Realm for the shard as a tracking device was placed into the cybernetic ninja to find it.

"It should be around here somewhere" said Sektor.

But as the cybernetic ninja continued his trek, he was being watched by Scorpion who didn't appreciate Sektor being in his territory. Scorpion then launched his attack by firing a spear from the shadows at Sektor, the cybernetic ninja dodged the spear just in the nick of time, he then pulled the spear pulling Scorpion toward him and giving him a surprise punch using Scorpion as a human yo-yo. Scorpion eventually managed to get out of Sektor's grasp.

"You are not welcome here" said Scorpion.

"I beg to differ" continued Sektor who was ready to continue fighting with Scorpion.

Scorpion then tried to fire his spear again at Sektor, but the cybernetic ninja managed to teleport and implement an uppercut right toward Scorpion sending him flying into the air which Sektor ended up firing a few missiles at him as well. Scorpion eventually lands on his feet and teleports knocking Sektor down, but the cybernetic ninja dodges Scorpion's axe as he pulls it out on Sektor trying to slice the cybernetic ninja.

"You won't stop me from my goal" said Sektor.

"If that goal is getting you sliced up, I am willing to help you" laughed Scorpion.

Sektor then responded by taking out his flamethrower and started to use it on Scorpion, however, Scorpion felt no pain as he took off his mask he revealed his skull toward the cybernetic ninja.

"You think that can stop me?" laughed Scorpion.

Scorpion then ran and delivered a few combos toward Sektor, as the cybernetic ninja stumbled down to the ground he noticed the shard of the master emerald was right beside him.

"Just what I was looking for" said Sektor.

"Hmm, why would you be interested in this?" asked Scorpion as he took it right from where Sektor was about to grab it.

"Give it back" said Sektor.

"Ha, why should I, what purpose do you need this?" asked Scorpion.

"Shao Khan wants to get back to Mobius, he is receiving competition from a foe known as Black Doom" continued Sektor.

"Interesting" said Scorpion who ended up tossing Sektor the shard, "if it'd get you out of my territory go, and don't make me change my mind."

As Sektor left, the cybernetic ninja arrived with the shard toward Shao Khan who was rather impressed.

"Use this to get us into the realm of Mobius" continued Shao Khan as he gave it to Shinnok.

"I'll see what I can do with it" replied Shinnok.

As Shinnok continued to research what he could do with the shard, meanwhile on Mobius itself, Black Doom was waging war against the Mobians, the Earth warriors had gathered to help them out fight Black Doom. Raiden had assembled Earth warriors to help out the Mobians as they were facing two fronts.

"This is our moment of truth!" said Black Doom toward his followers Shadow included, "We shall reign supreme over those who dare oppose us!"

Black Doom then sent his soldiers to fight the oncoming Mobians whom were being led by Kitana and Liu Kang, along with Sally while Sonic and Raiden were trying to get behind and outflank Black Doom's soldiers. Raiden launched a few lightning bolts at Black Doom's soldiers knocking them out cold, while Sonic ended up spinning around them making them dizzy.

"Quickly we have to get to Black Doom and outflank him" said Raiden.

As the two continued to lead the attack meanwhile on the battlefield, Lien-Da and her Dark Legion followers were trying to counter attacks on Kitana and Liu Kang which Lien-Da's Dark Legion warriors were sadly no match for.

"Bah, what fools!" roared Lien-Da.

"So you think you can take me on?" asked Kitana to Lien-Da.

"Ha, I just so happen to have the skills to finish you off" laughed Lien-Da.

"We'll see about that" said Kitana.

As the two were prepared for a fight, Liu Kang along with Sally were still making their way toward the main base where Black Doom was located.
