Back in Shang Tsung's throne room, several masked guards are escorting a new warrior, covered in a mask of cloth and red clothing.
SHANG TSUNG: Kombatants! I present this latest creation of Shao Kahn. He is many warriors, their souls fused into one being. Behold... Ermac!
Ermac assumes a fighting kata. He glows with green energy, light crackling and the air rippling around him. Johnny Cage is once again impressed, Kano snickers under his breath.
RAIDEN: Be wary, Liu Kang. He is unlike anything you have fought before.
Liu Kang steps up to face Ermac.
SHANG TSUNG: Liu Kang! You are the sole Earthrealm warrior to progress to this final stage of the tournament!
LIU KANG: I am ready.
ERMAC: We are many. You are one. We will destroy you.
They fight. Ermac's telekenetic powers and control over magic would be an even match for several kombatants, but Liu Kang is no oridinary warrior. After an intense battle, his fighting skill overcomes the mystical warrior.
LIU KANG: Earthrealm will not fall into your master's hands.
With the fight over, the kombatants take their leave. Kitana walks over to Shang Tsung, who is seething with rage.
KITANA: Both the shaolin and the God of Thunder's son is a greater threat than anticipated. I will insure they don't reach the final challenge.
Shang Tsung nods his approval and Kitana departs after Y/N. Later in the forest, Y/N is practicing a kata with Raiden watching.
RAIDEN: Remember Bo' Rai Cho's teachings. For my vision to be realised, you must not let emotion overpower you.
Y/N: Your visions. What causes them father?
RAIDEN: My future self sent them to me. Perhaps to ensure some outcome.
LIU KANG: Or to prevent one.
Raiden gasps again. Another vision appears in his mind, this time of future Raiden.
FUTURE RAIDEN: He must win!
The vision disappears.
RAIDEN: "He must win". Those are my last words before I die. I believe it is you who must win.
Raiden says as he looks towards Liu Kang and Y/N as he takes off his amulet.
RAIDEN: This amulet was forged by the Elder Gods. It cracked here in the present after my first vision. If we choose wisely, the future will be secured and the cracks healed.
LIU KANG: I trust you will make the right decisions.
RAIDEN: We must trust in the Elder Gods, Liu Kang.
Raiden teleports away in a flash of lightning. Liu kang nods towards Y/N as he does the same to which makes Liu Kang walk away. Y/N prepares to resume his kata, only to find Kitana walking toward him which makes him slightly smirk. She attacks immediately, but he blocks all of her attacks and kicks her away. She tries again, fails to land a good hit and he kicks her away again. Getting angry, Kitana tries another attack, but Y/N grabs both her arms before she can connect. He seems rather intrigued by her efforts.
Y/N: You're good! Show me more.
She pushes him back.
KITANA: Do not underestimate me, Son of The God of Thunder.
Their fight began with a swift exchange of blows, both combatants demonstrating their incredible agility and martial prowess. Y/N utilized his unique combination of fire and lightning powers, creating a dazzling display of elemental might that put Kitana's agility to the test. Kitana, armed with her deadly steel fans, countered with acrobatic moves and precision strikes.
