"It looks like we're going to have to fight to free them. Three on three, I'd say those are fair odds. I'll get Kahn." Kung Lao said.
"You'll have to get past my three warriors first, monk." Shao Kahn said.
"I only see two of your warriors." Jade said.
Shang Tsung smirked. "Three, if you count Liu Kang."
"Liu Kang? He would never work for you!" Kung Lao said.
"Wrong. Bring Liu Kang forth!" Shao Kahn ordered.
Sure enough through the darkness of the open door emerged the beaten up, zombie like body of the fallen former mortalkombat champion, Liu Kang.
"No!" Jade said.
"It can't be!" Kung Lao said.
"How is this possible?" Kenshi asked.
"It's simple if you're a sorcerer." Shang Tsung said.
"You're a monster!" Kung Lao said.
"Go now and kill them!" Shao Kahn instructed to his warriors.
Lui Kang, Shang Tsung and Quan Chi advanced upon Jade, Kung Lao, and Kenshi. Kung Lao took his fellow comrade and Jade and Kenshi battles with the two sorcerers.
Outside the fortress the battle with Shao Kahn's army raged on. The longer the earth warriors fought the more stamina they lost.
"Raiden this is ridiculous! We can't possibly beat them all! We need to go and help the others." Sonya said
"I know, but I see no end in sight to the army. If we can hold them off a bit longer until I can find a way to get the others without being followed." Raiden said.
"Well it's got to be soon because I can't last much longer fighting non stop like this." Jax said.
"Ah!" Sonya screamed as a blade from a soldier sliced across her arm. Blood began to drip from the wound. Jax and Johnny immediately turned to her.
"Sonya! Are you ok?" Johnny asked.
Sonya killed the soldier and held her arm. "I'm fine. It's just a graze."
Raiden looked around Outworld and saw a massive mountain of rocks on both sides of him and above.
"Jax, Sonya, Johnny Cage! Come follow me! I have an idea!" Raiden said.
Jax Sonya and Johnny Cage followed Raiden over by the rocks.
"What are you going to do?" Jax asked.
"We can't fight hem all. Hopefully I can cause a rock slide and trap them in the process." Raiden said.
Raiden outstretched his arms high above his head as lightning began to surround his hands. He directed his attack to the mountains of rock. The mountains began to shake and rumble as rocks began to loosen and tumble to the ground. Raiden increased his powers as more and more rocks fell, causing a small wall that was getting higher. Raiden then directed the lightning to the rocks above him. As he did this the army began to advance once more, determined to let their enemy get inside the fortress, but it was too late. Five of the warriors had been crushed by the falling rocks. The thunder god finally managed to cause all of the rocks to fall to make a medium size wall that was half the size of the rock Size Mountains.
"Do you think that will hold them back Raiden?" Johnny Cage asked.
"I hope so. The wall that I Have created should buy us enough time to defeat Shao Kahn and get the others out safely, but we must hurry." The thunder god said.
The four warriors ran into the fortress. Raiden stepped ahead of the others, trying to get a feel of the location of the others.
"Raiden, can you find out where the others are?" Sonya asked.
"I can only find them if they provide some kind of hint. We'll just have to look until we find them." Raiden said.
The four warriors searched the fortress for the others but were only met with mere warriors that were no match for the thunder god. They eventually came across Kahn's empty throne room.
"Shao Kahn's not here." Johnny said.
"He must be with the others." Raiden said.
"I say this whole thing's a trap. I'll tell you one thing…"
"Quiet, Jax. Do you hear that?" Sonya said.
Somewhere off in the distance muffled yells and thuds could be heard from every direction.
"Do you think that's them?" Johnny asked.
"It's possible. But which direction is it coming from?" Jax asked.
"It sounds like it's coming from the north east end." Raiden said.
"Yeah I think you're right, Raiden." Sonya said.
"We must go. There isn't much time." Raiden said.
Sonya went to follow Raiden and Jax but Johnny grabbed her injured arm.
"Johnny come on. We have to hurry up. This isn't the time to be fooling around." Sonya said.
"I'm not. It's just your arm. You're still bleeding." Johnny said.
"Oh. I didn't notice. It thought it would have stopped by now."
"It doesn't look that deep. Here, let me take care of it."
Johnny Cage took a cloth from inside his pocket and gently wrapped it around her arm and tied a knot at the end.
"There. It isn't too tight?" He asked.
"No. It's perfect. Thank you."
"You're welcome. We'd better hurry up now. If Jax find out that you're behind because of me I'll never hear the end of it."
Sonya smiled. "Yeah that's true. Let's go."
Johnny and Sonya ran to catch up with Raiden and Jax.
"What took you two so long?" Jas asked looking at Johnny when the two had finally caught up with them.
