The body fell and slammed against the concrete, Sub-Zero departed to Amaterasu to confront Noob Saibot and his army. Scorpion's resting place wreaked of death and destruction. The light that had been shining down began to fade. Slowly darkness crept in accompanied by the sharp sting of death once more. Scorpion could feel the blades of death ripping and tearing through his soul as he fell through the darkness. The velocity became greater and with the faster fall, the pain increased. His soul was paralyzed, unable to move and protect himself from the unseen forces. He slowly felt himself fading away when the pain finally ceased. The fall had come to its end. Scorpion reeled in pain, finally able to move he yelled out in agony. He finally calmed down and looked out into the darkness. He sat thinking about his death, his inability to help Sub-Zero. Thoughts raced through his mind torturing him. He would sit for hours until finally a small glimmer of light appeared before him. Scorpion looked at it, just a tiny speck of light floated before him. He got to his feet, the light grew. He began to walk slowly towards the light, with each step the light grew in size and as he was only feet from it, the light expanded and showed a burning village. Scorpion looked on in horror, it was his very own. He looked on in horror as he saw the older Sub-Zero go in and murder his wife and child. Scorpion dropped to his knees and looked on in horror. Rage began to build in him. The older Sub-Zero turned back and looked at him. He let out an all too familiar laugh. His blue garments faded from his body and were replaced by his dark robes. Scorpion looked back at Noob and threw his spear. It went through the light and destroyed the image on it. Scorpion beat his hands against the ground. Tears ran down his face and hit the ground. The light reappeared this time with a different image upon it. Amaterasu was before him. The paradise given by the Elder Gods to the purest souls was in ruins. The Brotherhood of Shadow had ravaged the buildings. The sky was dark, rain beat down upon the city. Scorpion looked on to see Sub-Zero making his way through the city slaughtering Brotherhood members who dare attack him or the innocent around him. Sub-Zero made his way to the plaza and began to lay waste to the Brotherhood with his Kori Blade. Scorpion looked on in amazement as Sub-Zero slashed the heads from the minions and ripped the spine from one. Sub-Zero fought well until the shadow crossed his path. Saibot jumped out of his shadow puddle. He came from behind Sub-Zero and used a sweeping kick to knock him down. Sub-Zero felt another man grab him. Noob had appeared from a crowd of Brotherhood members and picked up Sub-Zero and threw a punch that shattered his nose. The members of the Brotherhood circled around them. Scorpion got up and tried to move towards the light as to help but heard a voice whisper, "It is not time…" He looked back and saw golden eyes looking at him. He turned back to the light to see that Sub-Zero had taken the upper hand. Noob had fallen victim to one of Sub-Zero's iceballs and was frozen. He had made his way over to Saibot and grabbed him by the collar and began to throw punches into his face repeatedly. He finally threw Saibot into the air and delievered a roundhouse kick that sent him flying into members of the crowd. Sub-Zero turned his attention back to Noob. Noob had broken through the ice as Sub-Zero threw a kick. Noob caught it and laughed. He threw an elbow, shattering Sub-Zero's knee. He held on to his foot still. Sub-Zero screamed out in pain. He tried to fall but Saibot had come and grabbed onto his other leg.

"It was nice to see you brother!" Noob said mockingly. Noob and Saibot began to pull. Slowly they ripped Sub-Zero in half. The Brotherhood roared at the triumph. Noob and Saibot held the body up as a trophy. Scorpion could only look in disbelief. There was no hope now… The Brotherhood began to celebrate when an earthquake began to shake Amaterasu. Sub-Zero's body disappeared, leaving behind only the his blue garments. Scorpion's eyes widened. He looked back to the golden eyes. They looked back at him with intrigue. Scorpion slowly began to feel light-headed. He looked down to see his hand disappearing. His body began to fade. He continued to look at the golden eyes until he was no more…

"It is not about death, but life."
