All Earthream warriors plus Raiden is in the earthrealm camp.

Raiden: Curtis Stryker was a good man he did not deserve his demise.

Jax: It just so bizarre I remember when we were all recruited now we lost two people.

Flashback

Stryker: So mister cage, you are being charged with gross misconduct, being drunk and disorderly and the sale of class a drugs.

Johnny Cage: I didn't do anything.

Stryker: yeah, yeah, that's what they all say. (Stryker hears a beep on his Wilkie talkie). Yes?

Receptionist: Two special forces personnel have arrived, they a requesting to see you.

Stryker: Send them in. (Sonya and Jax appears).

Sonya: Curtis Stryker?

Stryker: Yes.

Sonya: My name is Sonya Blade, this is Jackson Briggs. We would like to request you join us right now.

Stryker: I already told your superiors, I'm not interested in joining the special forces.

Jax: This is something different, You had a partner named Kabal who died one year ago when the black dragon attacked the city?

Stryker: Yeah. Never forget that day.

Johnny Cage: Hey beautiful, Johnny Cage.

Sonya: (Ignoring Johnny Cage) We believe that the black dragon leader Kano might have had previous contact with your partner.

Stryker: That can't be true, Kabal would never associate with scum like the black dragon.

Jax: We are not saying that we just know that he had contact with there leader Kano.

Stryker: So what do you want from me.

Jax: We need to know everything about your partner or... (In that moment they are all teleported to Raiden's Sky temple). What the hell.

Johnny Cage: Ok that's weird.

Sonya: I can't get a signal to h.q. (Raiden, sub zero, Liu Kang, Kung Lao and Kenshi teleport in).

Raiden: That won't be necessary. (Jax, Sonya and Stryker all point there guns).

Stryker: Who are you?

Raiden: My name is Raiden, there is no need for Violence Curtis Stryker.

Stryker: You know my name?

Raiden: I know about all of you.

Johnny Cage: Well you would obviously know about me.

Raiden: Indeed, I know that you get up everyday thinking that you need something to help resurrect your career.

Johnny Cage: How did you know that?

Raiden: I have been watching all of you for some time now. I am here for your help.

Sonya: (back to modern day) Next thing I know we are all transported to this island to fight for earthrealm. (Kenshi enters)

Kung Lao: Kenshi, thank the elder gods your ok.

Kenshi: Thank you Kung Lao. And to all of you who helped me. Oh.

Jax: What is it?

Kenshi: We lost Stryker, I was unaware. We are down 3-2 are we not?

Raiden: that is correct.

Johnny Cage: I'm sorry guys (he leaves).

Sonya: Cage, wait up (she leaves).

Liu Kang: I didn't know it hit him so hard.

Kenshi: I sense he feels he has let us all down.

Jax: Kenshi just because you can go into people's mind doesn't mean you should.

Kenshi: Scared what I might find?

Jax: no I just...

(Cut to Johnny and Sonya).

Sonya: What's the matter Cage?

Johnny Cage: Nothing's wrong just didn't get to say my catchphrase. You know you should get one.

Sonya: Noted, but I know that's not what's bothering you.

Johnny Cage: it's noth...

Sonya: You walked out on us don't tell me it's nothing.

Johnny Cage: I just don't understand why I'm still alive. In those few seconds my life flashed before my eyes. What am I doing with my life. I go out a party every night sell drugs and waste my life.

Sonya: That's really mature of you Cage. You know we never finished are kiss.

Johnny Cage: Well, let's make up for it then...

(Outworld camp)

Shang Tsung: (angry) Why didn't you kill him.

Kitana: He did not need to die.

Shang Tsung: If it comes to me fighting in the last round the more deaths the better.

Kitana: Well let's hope it doesn't come to that then. (Walks always jade confronts her).

Jade: What is going on Kitana? You usually are ruthless yet you let that Earthrealmer live?

Kitana: He was not worthy to die from my hands.

Jade: I have been your closest friend all your life there is something more to this.

Kitana: There is nothing else Jade.

Jade: I hope your right. (Kitana looks divided cuts to Shang Tsung and Ermac)

Shang Tsung: (to ermac) What did you find out.

Ermac: Nothing.

Shang Tsung: Unusual. (Shang Tsung leaves, Scorpion enters).

Scorpion: What is it you found out?

Ermac: I caught the princess talking to the Earthrealm warrior Liu Kang. They fought and she lost, the Earthrealmer however let her live.

Scorpion: Interesting. This should be bought to quan chi's attention.

Intersting. I will be exploring Quan Chi in future scripts however he will not be appearing in this one. Please review and favioute the script.
