Jacqui: I don't know, I expected the sky to be purple or something
Specter: I thought the streets would be filled with kombat
Kung Jin: Don't believe everything you see online
Cassie: And what makes you an expert?
Kung Jin: The Shaolin archives, I studied a lot about outworld
Specter: Anyone can just write a book and put whatever they want, Jin
Kung Jin: Those books were real
Cassie: No substitute for experience
Kung Jin: So what makes you our leader then?
(Cassie glares at Kung Jin)
Takeda: Guys, tap the brakes. Lets just stick to the mission
Jacqui: Li Mei has to be telling the truth, an invasion would violate the Reiko accords
Kung Jin: Because you can always trust an outworlder...
Takeda: But if outworld is our ally, why didn't they help us during the nether realm war? Against Quan Chi and his team of-
Kung Jin: Revenants? Like Jacqui's dad?
Jacqui: Asshole
Kung Jin: Its not an alliance. Non aggression pact. Outworld is not our ally
Erron Black: A point you might make with more subtlety given your surroundings
(Erron Black and a team of Osh Tek guards surround Cassie and her team)
Erron Black: Now state your business. Including a reason why we shouldn't kill you
Takeda: I can read you. You're not from outworld
Erron Black: I'm from earth realm, like you. But my employer, Kotal Khan is from outworld, so I'm from outworld by proxy. State your business
Cassie: We're emissaries. We need to talk to Kotal Khan. Here, we have Raiden's official seal
(Cassie pulls out an amulet case)
Erron Black: I can buy one of those at that stall right over there
Kung Jin: Look, you can arrest us, even kill us. But if we're telling the truth, you'd probably get a pay cut, or worse. You take us to the Khan, I'll tell him you took us down. Maybe you get a bonus. You can't lose
(Erron Black thinks for a moment)
Erron Black: Follow me
(Erron Black leads Cassie's team to an execution stage)
Osh Tek: In these times of war, we are required to view every resource as a weapon for our emperor to use at his descretion. To take without leave is to steal from the hand of
Kotal Khan himself. Therefore, having been found guilty of theft, you shall be put to death
Thief: I was hungry! I-
Osh Tek: Your sentence will be carried out... Immediately!
Kung Jin: Death? For petty theft?
Erron Black: Remember where you are
(Kung Jin tries to go up to the thief and free him, but Erron Black aims his revolver at him)
(Cassie knocks Erron Black down before he can pull the trigger)
(Right as the thief's head is about to be cut off, Kung Jin shoots an arrow into the executioner)
