After the night our heroes had, the Mortal Kombat Tournament was ready to continue. As last time, the Lin Kuei were present to the festivities, but someone was perplexing to the Thunder God.
Raiden, once again, got a vision. This one was of this Masked Guard, only in the appearance of another of his students, Kung Lao. Whether or not this was him or not, the Tournament had to go on.
Shang Tsung: [Raiden walks away] Kombatants! The next match will now begin!
A hole of fire appeared on the ground, and from it appeared the demon known as Scorpion.
Once formerly known as Hanzo Hasashi of the Shirai Ryu, Scorpion was a man who would've been with Earthrealm in the fight against Outworld a long time ago, but after being killed by Sub-Zero of the Lin Kuei, alongside his wife, son and clan, he was reincarnated and brought back to life by the power of Quan Chi, forced to follow Outworld in the conquering of his former home.
Shang Tsung: Scorpion! Specter of the Netherrealm! Resurrected by the sorcerer Quan Chi! Who among you is worthy of this challenge?
Scorpion: Where is the Lin Kuei Sub-Zero? He killed my family and clan. I will have his head!
Raiden: [Walks over to Masked Guard] I know it is you, Kung Lao. The Shaolin monks chose Liu Kang to represent your order in this tournament.
Masked Guard: I am Liu Kang's equal!
Raiden: That remains to be seen.
Masked Guard: Watch and see.
The Masked Guard walks up to Scorpion and reveals himself to be none other than the Shaolin student, trained in the same ways as Liu Kang, who was in a complete shock, Kung Lao.
