All language subtitles for Mortal Kombat CONQUEST - Ep. 01-02 - Warrior Eternal (1998 - 480p DVDRip)

Kung Lao, a humble young man with
the heart of a great warrior.

Soon that heart
will be tested...

as he fights for his home.

The Earth Realm.

Kung Lao will make his stand in the
tournament called Mortal Kombat.

Here, the Elder gods grant
the greatest fighters...

of the universe the right to
defend their own realms...

against the warriors of the
dark realm called Outworld.

The rules are simple.
Every generation...

the chosen fighters from each side are
transported to Shang Tsung's island...

an outpost between realms.

If they lose their battle...

their realm falls to
darkness forever...

absorbed in the desolate
expanse of Outworld.

Another victory for its
Emperor Shao Kahn.

Over centuries of Kombat,
Kahn's champion...

Shang Tsung, has
remained undefeated.

Laying to waste an untold number
of fighters with his sorcery.

Finish him!

Earth is the jewel
of the universe.

A young, vast, pristine realm...

whose inhabitants have not yet begun
to comprehend the power it holds.

I am Rayden, God of Thunder,
Protector of the Earth Realm.

Not an easy job, believe me.

Your soul is mine!

It's time to commit, Kung Lao...

to a destiny you've trained
your whole life for.

Here... you are ready.

Physically there is no fighter your equal.
But here is your weakness.

Doubts. Lurking in your head.

Since you were a
boy, Kung Lao...

I have known that a great and powerful
warrior resides in your soul.

Your victory will come from an
unwavering belief in yourself.

That and a little luck.

Kung Lao is the best and the
last Earth has to offer.

Your final battle, Shang Tsung.

After your victory, Earth
finally becomes my domain.

Our domain.

Meaning, of course, that I would share in
its power as your most obedient servant.

Your ambition serves
you well, Shang Tsung.

But know this: Failure
now is unacceptable.

Today, Earth lives or dies with the
skill of its greatest warrior.

It is a fight to the death.

In this sacred tournament
called Mortal Kombat.

Fight!

Pathetic or not,
your soul is mine.

Your will is weak, Kung Lao.
Soon to break.

Finish him.

Kill him! Kill him!

Earth will make a fine
addition to our world.

You can do this, Kung Lao.
Believe.

Jen... I can't stay. But I had
to see you one last time.

This is not the end, Kung Lao.

Your strength is in
me and mine in you.

You must finish what you've
started before it's too late.

Very clever. Playing dead.

Not as clever as this.

Kill him! Kill him!

He is worthless and weak.

Finish him.

No.

Listen to me.

When the next tournament comes,
remember what you saw here today.

The people of Earth
are not murderers.

In respect of the Elder gods and
the laws of Mortal Kombat...

I choose... mercy.

Nice speech.

You should have
killed me, Kung Lao.

You look like you're
sleeping standing up.

Give me a break Rayden.
I'm tired.

I know. You deserve a rest.

I offer gratitude.

To the Elder Gods...

for granting me to courage and the
strength to defeat Shang Tsung.

Up at dawn. Filled with anger.
Not much of a rest.

- Someone is tormenting me.
- Any suspects?

Someone or something
is inside my head.

Turning all my
thoughts to darkness.

There's no one inside your head, Kung Lao.
No one but you.

What you are seeing is no doubt
a premonition of your future.

A fate yet unwritten,
but clouded with fear.

Haven't I earned the right to
just be happy for a change?

Shao Kahn has not been defeated.

His claim to Earth has
merely been postponed.

What you have earned, Kung Lao,
is the right to be a leader.

To find and train a new
generation of fighters...

to stand at your side
in the next tournament.

It is one path, Kung
Lao, if you so choose.

But remember, in Mortal Kombat,
victory is not the end...

it's only the beginning. Why can't
you teach the new fighters?

This is not my world.

Not my responsibility. The key to Earth's
victory lies in the human spirit.

So you want me to just
turn away from everything?

What about my dreams
of happiness with Jen?

Do you want me to give
up my whole life?

There are rewards.

The Elder Gods have granted that you will not
age another day until the next tournament.

Tell me, Rayden, would you rather be
old and happy or young and cursed?

If my future is unwritten
like you say...

then I'll write it the
way I want, from now on!

Why do they never listen to me?

Siro.

- Miss me?
- Absolutely not.

Siro, tell me the trip went well. I
need my father in a good mood today.

You know I always tell you
what you want to hear, Jen.

But this time it might
actually be true.

I just got your father a very sweet
deal on two hundred pounds of cinnamon.

Good. Then he won't mind
me asking for a gift.

A gift?

Yeah, for the Temple of the Order of Light.
It's their holiest week...

Oh, I know, that Mortal
Kombat nonsense.

Nonsense or not, it's only right
for us as citizens here...

to make an offering to the
Temple and its fighters.

Like Kung Lao?

Yes.

Wish me luck.

Are you enjoying the
rewards of failure?

- Great Shao Kahn, end this now.
- How dare you beg for death!

Only victors are
granted their desires.

There's a fate worse than death.

The Cobalt Mines of Shokan.

An eternity of pain
and suffering.

Mocked by the dregs
of the universe.

A fitting punishment for letting the
Earth realm slip through my hands!

You are forever
known as Outcast.

Failure.

Failure!

Now remove this
vermin from my sight.

Revenge will be mine.
Kung Lao will die!

Come on. We're almost
at the Temple.

Siro, how do I look?
And be honest.

In love. Undeniably in love. And this
concerns not just your father, but me too.

What have you told him?

You underestimate your father. He
can see it as plainly as I can.

He only wants what's
best for you.

Well, I'm glad he knows. The love
Kung Lao and I share was meant to be.

A word of warning, Jen.

It may be that the only
thing inevitable...

is a battle of wills between
you and your father.

Not very friendly, are they?

Something's not right.

Enough.

No bloodshed on sacred ground.

Why didn't you tell
me you were coming?

A contribution for your temple.
I wanted it to be a surprise.

What to do, what to do? Oh...

- the Barron could use some kitchen help.
- I'd rather die.

And you will, if you can't cook.
Where are you going, Jen?

Tradition says all contributions to
the Temple must be made in person.

- Jen goes nowhere without me.
- She's safe now, Siro.

- Thanks to you.
- Five minutes. Then I come hunting.

You're all heart.

Now you may just find out
that's far from the truth.

Come here, I want to
show you something.

- You've been practicing.
- Ssshhh.

Focus, you taught me. I
can't be distracted.

What? Scared I can beat you now?
Don't look so surprised, Kung Lao.

- You're a very good teacher.
- Jen, l...

I, uh, had visions
while I've been gone.

About us?

It's nice to know when you're
away on your Temple retreats...

- that I'm still in your dreams.
- Jen, please. Listen to me...

- This vision I had...
- Let me guess.

You saw us together,
just like now.

As husband and wife.

Growing old in
each other's arms.

You, uh, read my mind.

Just one thing, the only problem now
is going to be convincing my father.

Kung Lao, my friend.
It's good to see you.

The trading post is closed.
This must be a social visit.

Actually, I've come to propose
a deal with the Barron.

Wish me luck.

Hey, smile, Kung Lao.

After all, it's not every day you get
to propose to the Barron's daughter.

How's our thief?

Being treated like one.

No.

And to what do I owe
the honour, Kung Lao?

I think you know, Barron, that over the years
I've become very close to your daughter.

Is that so?

And I'm ready to dedicate
my life to Jen's happiness.

She's a dear girl. She
deserves happiness.

And what are your financial
prospects, Kung Lao?

Just how much does that Temple
pay you to save the world?

Well, sir, it doesn't
exactly work that way.

I'm well aware of the way it
works, your training to fight...

other realms, your Elder Gods.

But, if you're serious
about marrying Jen...

you have to put aside this
foolishness once and for all.

But Barron, how can you ask
me to abandon my faith?

What you call faith, Kung
Lao, I call delusions.

- They're not delusions!
- I am a businessman.

I have practical concerns for
the welfare of my daughter...

and if you cannot seriously provide
for her, then your request is denied.

Guards! Show him out.

I can't accept that answer.
Jen will be my wife!

Jen is my property!

And like everything else in this
trading post, she has a price...

which I'm afraid
you cannot afford.

Leave now, Kung Lao, or I'll consider
you a thief and treat you accordingly.

No, I will not
leave without Jen.

Be smart now, Kung Lao.
Don't make me hurt you.

Take him outside and punish him.

Father, wait! Today
at the Temple...

Sir, it was Kung Lao who
saved us from the thieves.

- This is true?
- I swear it.

I will spare you
punishment this time.

But if you show yourself here again, I'll
consider it a threat to my daughter's...

safety and I will have no
choice but to have you killed.

Get him out of here.

The great Shang Tsung. No
better than the rest of us now.

Unless you count his powers
of sorcery, which are legend.

All cheap tricks. We all
lose our powers down here.

I hope so. Otherwise your respected
position is seriously in doubt.

I'll show Shang who
he bows to now.

I'm Z'dak and this is my region.

There's no power greater
than mine down here.

Yes. You're right. There is no
greater power than your stench.

You work when I say.
You rest when I say.

- You're my slave now.
- I think not.

- Out of tricks, sorcerer?
- A few more... up my sleeve.

Hocus. Pocus.

You dropped something.

I warned that it was no match
for the mighty Shang Tsung.

But... fools have to
learn the hard way.

I can only imagine what
you're down here for.

But it does not serve
my purpose right now.

So... disappear... before
there's another hard lesson.

Your purpose, if the
rumours are true...

is revenge upon the Earth
Realm warrior, Kung Lao.

A difficult proposition
from inside these mines...

but possible with
my help, of course.

All I ask in exchange is a
way out of this hell-hole.

A simple arrangement
between friends.

Help me take revenge
on Kung Lao...

and you will live
to see tomorrow.

How's that for an arrangement?

Splendid.

You're at a
crossroads, Kung Lao.

Part of you accepts your obligation,
part of you rejects it.

Your visions are
created by self-doubt.

Ignoring them will only make them stronger
until one day they will become real.

I can't control them.

Then do what's in
your power to do.

You're the last
Earth fighter left.

To find more and train them
well, that is one path.

The other promises bliss...

but it will also lead you to
betrayal, to suffering and death.

Not a tough decision
if you ask me.

No, I can't, Rayden.

If I betray my heart now,
I'll be haunted by regrets.

Either way I lose.

At least one way leads to Jen.

- You're really quite fortunate.
- And how's that?

Shao Kahn did not choose these
mines as his prison by accident.

The luminescence of cobalt deadens any
special powers a fighter may have.

Except yours, for some reason.

I am human by origin. This...
this rubble has no effect on me.

A human? I've made a
deal with a mere human?

A human with enough power
to erase you from history.

And yet clearly not enough power
to escape these mines yourself.

You must have really
enraged Shao Kahn.

Your usefulness is waning.

You've told me nothing about this
place that wasn't painfully obvious.

Oh, but there are other places.

Places most prisoners
know nothing of.

I've seen the secrets of Shao
Kahn's conquests hidden below us.

All that way for this...
this trinket?

Hardly a trinket. This is The Scorpio,
stolen by Kahn from a conquered realm.

- Bugs. I have no need for bugs.
- Go closer.

You will see there is
more than meets the eye.

You are seconds away
from annihilation.

Legend says The Scorpio holds a prisoner
within it. A most deadly warrior.

It occurred to me that
with your magic powers...

you could release
the warrior within.

In exchange for settling your
score on Earth with Kung Lao.

Takeda, Takeda! Please let me in.
I have to see Jen.

Are you crazy? The Barron's issued an
execution order if you're seen here.

Takeda, we've been friends for too
many years. You have to let me in.

My whole future depends on it.

Look, my future depends
on not letting you in.

Takeda, I have to come in.
Don't make me hurt you.

You give yourself far too much credit,
Kung Lao. And you give me, far too little.

You know, my only
consolation is...

When the Barron finds you knocked
out, he'll see you tried to stop me.

At least one of our
futures will be secure.

- Kung Lao, I thought I'd never...
- Shhh. The guards will find me soon.

I thought I'd never
see you again.

You should know me better than that.
Quickly now, Jen. We have to leave.

I call upon the soul trapped inside and
offer these terms for your release.

Unleash your malevolence from the
skies above onto Earth Realm...

- I knew something was not right.
- Siro, please.

I owe you so much
already, I know.

But do what you know
is right for me.

I swore to ensure
your happiness.

Protect her as I have, Kung Lao.

Go quickly.

Takeda!

Come on, Jen. I'm here for you.

Jen?

No, Takeda, you don't understand.
I'm leaving with Kung Lao.

That will not happen.

No.

No fruit tonight.

I'm hungry for something else.

Something... new.

- You've got a real way with women.
- Mm-hm.

- Excuse me, sir.
- This better be good, Siro.

- Jen has eloped with Kung Lao.
- What?

They left some time ago.
And I allowed it.

You allowed it?!

Takeda, I'm sorry about
what happened outside.

- But I had no choice.
- Neither do l.

No, I order you to let us go!

Damn you.

I can see the doubt in your eyes
now, Kung Lao. You can't beat me.

No!

Get over here.

You...

Summon my guards.

I was warned I'd be betrayed.

But I never imagined
it would be you.

Have mercy on your friend.

No, Kung Lao.

Take him!

- As you ordered, Barron.
- Seize him.

Please, no.

I will deal with you later, Jeneviere.
Please.

Your efforts shall
be rewarded, Takeda.

You will be promoted to Siro's
job as my personal consort.

As soon as you banish this
traitor from my trading post.

You should not have ignored
my warnings, Kung Lao.

You've forced my hand in this.

Tomorrow...

you die.

No place for a woman.

Jailed in this pit, slave to a
ruthless man like the Barron.

Who are you?

Oh, me, I'm just a lowly
thief like yourself.

Caught taking what wasn't
mine from the Barron.

I am not lowly.

Oh...

How'd you get in the other
side of that grate?

When they were moving the temple warrior guy
into my cell earlier tonight, I snuck out.

Temple warrior?

You mean Kung Lao?

Mm-hm. Yeah. You know, he's to
be executed tomorrow morning.

Some say with him dies the
future of all mankind.

Oh, you mean all that stuff
in those old legends.

Yeah, you're right. Who cares?

Wait.

Can you get me out of here?

Me?

I'm no use to you.

It'll take two strong young
bodies to move this grate.

You and... maybe a warrior.

I see.

You want me to save Kung Lao.

Oh, heavens, no.

That would be suicide
helping him escape.

Besides, wasn't it his fault that
you were caught in the first place?

Not really.

But...

I mean, I might just...

kill myself if I have to stay down
in this rat hole another night.

Hey, where did you go?

This is all my fault.

- I never should have let you...
- Enough.

It's not your fault. I brought this
on my own by not doing my job.

Please be careful, Jen. Something
is not right with Takeda.

Your instincts are
never wrong, Siro.

Show yourself here again, Siro,
and you'll be killed on sight.

It might be worth it, just to get
another shot at you, traitor.

If I'm the traitor...

why are you the
one being exiled?

Better hurry now, or you'll
miss Kung Lao's execution.

I'm within my rights to
offer you nothing...

but I know that you're
a spiritual man so...

I will grant you five
minutes for prayer.

You're too kind.

Speak.

Such a lucky man, Shang Tsung, to get
everything you've ever dreamed of.

Kung Lao dies today.

How?

Barron Reyland has
ordered him beheaded.

I want his soul.

There is none stronger in
Earth Realm than Kung Lao.

Without fresh souls,
my powers will fade.

The Scorpion lives. We will be there
at the moment of death to take it.

- Then you must free him.
- I must?

If it is your will.

It is my will. Die, Kung Lao.

Take Jen home. Guard,
take her back home!

I must be crazy.

I feel his suffering
and it is wonderful!

Excuse me.

Hi, um, this is very embarrassing.
Um...

I would like to take a bath...

but I can't get my clothes
off with these chains on.

Could you help?

Yeah? Great.

Um, now if you could just,
uh, yeah, right here...

What're you doing?

If you want me to break your boyfriend
free, I'm gonna need your help.

I don't understand. Why
would you do that for him?

Well, the other day when I tried to rob
you, he saved my life. I owe him one.

And nothing personal, but I'd hate to
see your father get what he wants.

What can I do?

Where does your
father keep his keys?

Two minutes, that's how long your
brain needs without the body.

Enjoy.

Kill him.

Now Jen.

Takeda!

- We've come to set you free!
- So I see.

What is going on?

You and Taja must go far away.

Jeneviere!

Stop this treachery.

Stop it!

Don't come any closer.

Why are you doing
this to me, Jen?

Could you truly love Kung Lao
more than your own father?

If you would've loved me, Father,
you would've never made me choose.

Go, now!

- Guards! Guards, help me!
- Come with us, Jen.

Kung Lao.

Go, both of you, please!

Stop them!

Who is there?

All packed and ready to go.

Who are you?

Just a lowly beggar.

But one who hears things.

Moving about as I do.

The rumour has it...

the Barron's daughter is in
need of a new bodyguard.

The old one quit.

Quit? I would die for that girl.

Now you tell me who is spreading
these treacherous lies about Siro.

Or I'll have you
begging for your life.

Speak.

Your words are very impressive.

A quick word of
advice, my friend.

Don't wear yourself out on me...

if you ever hope to get
your old job back.

Are you sure this leads
up to Jen's room?

Yes, I'm sure.

I've just escaped, and here I
am, sneaking right back in.

Okay.

Push.

Harder.

You were hardly innocent.

No, I'm a thief.

Have been most of my life.

Not just here either,
in many places.

This is where I slept.
Nice, isn't it?

Oh, I was given a choice. Down
here with the rats, or...

upstairs in the
Barron's chamber.

- You choose the rats?
- I may be a thief...

but I do have my standards.

Through there is the
servants' stairs.

They lead to the bed chambers.

I snuck up there once, just
to see what it would be like.

I know it sounds silly, but I, uh,
I even tried on one of her gowns.

Raw silk.

Soft, luxurious. And the way
it caressed my skin, it...

it made me feel...

more than just a thief.

Jen's a very lucky girl
to have someone like you.

You'll find someone too, Taja.

But this is not your fight.

Go now. Escape while you can.

- You've earned your freedom.
- No, um...

wait for nightfall.

And as for me, let's just say
I'm a fool for a happy ending.

No guards at the stairs. I guess the
Barron doesn't realise how crazy you are.

I'll take that as a compliment.

Siro?

I thought you were banished.

- Ow!
- Shhh.

I thought you were dead.

And you, you're supposed
to be in shackles.

Unpredictable, aren't we?

Taja rescued me. We've
come back to get Jen.

Hey, that's why I'm here, too.

Some beggar in the
woods got me thinking.

I have a hunch Jen's
not safe here anymore.

Tell me about this beggar.

Oh, he was very insolent.

But very nimble.

Long grey hair, bright blue eyes.
About... this tall?

Hey! I know that guy. He escaped
from here last night...

after he guilted me
into saving you.

He's name is Rayden. He is the Thunder
God and protector of the Earth Realm.

Wanna run that by me again?

Yeah, you lost me
at Thunder God.

You really are nuts, Kung Lao.

It doesn't matter
if you believe me.

If Rayden came to you both then
I can't do this without you.

The last part I agree with.
But, what's our plan?

Very simple. Get
her and get out.

Less noise.

Something isn't right. This
door is never unlocked.

Wait here. Cover my back.

Jen?

Take him!

Takeda!

It's me, Kung Lao.

- No, Takeda. Please!
- That's enough, Takeda. Take him away.

Your soul belongs
to Shang Tsung.

I said enough.

Stop him.

Stop this sorcery!

No!

No!

No, no. You'll break your legs.

Don't ask me why he didn't.

I should've listened to Rayden.

I should've killed Takeda
while I had the chance.

I should've killed Shang Tsung.

Kung Lao, come quick.
The Barron's dying.

Kung Lao. Kung Lao, I beg you, save my...
my Jeneviere.

- Do you know where Takeda might take her?
- No. But you must stop him.

Now...

I was wrong.

Please... forgive... me.

So where do we start looking?

Everywhere. She may have
been taken to Outworld.

- "Outworld"? Where's that?
- It's another realm, another dimension.

- It's hard to explain.
- Let me guess...

Outworld is where your
Thunder god lives.

Don't make me laugh. I wouldn't
be caught dead in Outworld.

Fortunately,
immortals can't die.

- That's the beggar! That's him!
- Yeah, and a liar. He told me he was a thief.

- Jen's been taken. I have to know where.
- Walk with me.

Rayden, I don't have time
for one of your lectures.

If you had listened to my
last lecture, Kung Lao...

you may not be in
this situation now.

I'm sorry. You're right.

But Jen's in trouble. And I think
Shang Tsung's behind this.

If that's true, you're being
led straight to your death.

I don't care. Tell me where she
is, Rayden, I have to save her.

I understand.

Your visions, Kung Lao,
what is it you saw?

I saw death.

My own.

Of those I care for.

The monks.

The monks.

The Temple. Is that it? Is
that where he's taken her?

The Temple is also where
you're most vulnerable.

Until you commit to fulfil your
destiny, you cannot defeat Takeda.

There's much more at stake here,
Kung Lao, than even the life of Jen.

I understand.

I need a vacation.

Kung Lao is in trouble. I
need two strong bodies...

to help me kill him.

It's okay. They're
with my Temple.

Not anymore.

- Killer monks. This should be fun.
- Speak for yourself.

Go on. We'll take care of your friends.
Or whatever they are.

Two on two. Seems
like a fair fight.

I hate a fair fight.

Ever been in this
situation before?

- Yeah. You first.
- Okay.

Your turn!

Jen.

Kung Lao.

Takeda?

Takeda is no more.
I am Scorpion.

Whoever you are, if Shang Tsung sent
you, it was to kill me, not her.

I was sent to make you suffer.

And then kill you.
Get over here!

I'm going to kill you, Kung Lao.

Jen!

Is it over? Did I kill him?

Almost, Jen. Almost.

Your will is weak, Kung Lao.
Soon to break.

Together we can
beat him, Kung Lao.

No. I have to do this myself.
Stay with Jen.

Jen. It's over now.
Stay with me.

I will always be
with you Kung Lao.

My home is now your heart.

Jen.

Please, don't leave me.

Please.

I ask of you Elder
Gods only this...

Let this candle burn in memory
of my lost love, Jeneviere.

Until we are reunited...
someday, somewhere.

I'm sorry about Jen.

There's still so much
I don't understand.

I can never forgive
myself for Jen.

You do what you must, Kung Lao.

This Realm of yours is the
greatest prize in the universe.

And now that Shang Tsung has
taken Jen and Takeda...

we know that he can strike out
at anytime in any form...

and will stop at
nothing to defeat you.

Beware who you trust, for
evil is everywhere...

and it is relentless.

Where do I even start?

The City of Zhu Zin.

It is not just the centre of your world,
but the crossroads of many realms.

You must find a place in the heart
of the city to call your own.

A place where you can find and train
new fighters for the next tournament.

The key...

Jen gave me this.

She said... her home
is in my heart.

The Trading Post. It's vacant now.
This must be the key to the gate.

It's what Jen would've wanted.

But be warned.

Warriors will come to you
from all over the world.

Some fugitives, some
disguised as friends...

some even led by a vision
of their own destinies.

But anyone who joins you also becomes
a target for Shang Tsung's minions.

How will I know the true fighters?
Where will I find them?

Trust only your
instincts, Kung Lao.

For nothing and no one are
always what they seem.

Now...

go kick some butt.

Kung Lao! Kung Lao.

I've been giving it some thought and I
want to try and put my past behind me.

Take it from me,
it's always there.

You're probably right. I just want
to do something useful for a change.

Very admirable.

Look, I'm offering you my help, Kung
Lao, on this "mission" of yours.

But don't make me beg.

Since when did you
become a believer, Taja?

I'm not but I have to admit I saw
some very strange stuff and...

if I'm gonna risk my life, better
it to be for something worthwhile.

I could use your help, but I can't
be responsible for your safety.

I can't be for yours either.

So where're you off
to know, Siro?

Hard to say.

What fool would hire a consort whose
last charge died before his eyes?

I'm sure I'll find
work in Zhu Zin.

Cleaning sewers, something
prestigious like that.

Take care. Both of you.

Siro, you could come with us.

Only if it means getting
revenge for Jen's death.

All the other things you talk
about make no sense to me.

It may take a while, but Shang
Tsung will be punished.

I must warn you both...

the forces of Outworld will
stop at nothing to defeat us.

We must beware who we trust.

For evil is everywhere
and it is relentless.

Sounds better than dying alone.

Brooding?

Be very careful.

I will, Shang. With
you, I always will.

Walk with me.

Where?

Into the future.

Even though you failed...

You have lived too long.

I was going to say that even
the greatest plans made...

by the most powerful
can sometimes fail.

So there is only one
thing left to do.

And what is that?

Make more great plans.

You're not the only warrior
imprisoned here by Shao Kahn.

Kahn's been around for
eons and over the years...

he's imprisoned hundreds
of fighters, just like us.

"Us"?

I only show so much
on a first date.

We're just full of
surprises, aren't we?

In the Cobalt Mines,
nothing is at is looks.

So I see.

Hundreds of fighters, all
trapped down here. With us.

We could build an army.

As always, Earth will live or die on
the skills of its greatest warriors.

In the sacred tournament
called Mortal Kombat.
