  1. Act 300:
  2.  
  3. HavikTitan: Look at him. Clinging to life. Even now, he struggles.
  4. KenshiChaos: Everyone who fought today did so fiercely.
  5. HavikTitan: Had I not been here for it, I would have thought it impossible.
  6. HavikTitan: Warriors from across timelines, clashing in kombat. The blood. The death. The chaos.
  7. KenshiChaos: Yes, Lord Havik. It’s unfortunate it all ended so fast.
  8. HavikTitan: The next time, it won’t.
  9.  
  10. Act 303:
  11.  
  12. SubZero: Once again, you outdo yourself. This facility, the armor. Even your father’s dreams weren’t so grand.
  13. SubZero: Only you could’ve replaced him as our Master Armorer.
  14. SubZero: First it must be tested in battle.
  15. SubZero: We have found Kuai Liang and his Shirai Ryu. They gather at the Wu Shi for his wedding.
  16. SubZero: Surprise will give us the tactical advantage.
  17. SubZero: Better to be feared than respected.
  18. SubZero: They gave up on the Lin Kuei, but we will not.
  19. SubZero: Go. Begin attack preparations.
  20. SubZero: We will be ready when she does.
  21.  
  22. Act 304:
  23.  
  24. Johnny: Stage fright, Thunder Lad?
  25. Raiden: I have never performed a marriage. And I wasn’t expecting to today. But Liu Kang and Geras were called to Outworld unexpectedly, and I --
  26. Johnny: Relax, Raidude. You’re being very undude.
  27. Johnny: We’re just extras in this picture. Kuai Liang and Harumi: they’re the stars.
  28. Johnny: Man this reminds me of when Cris and I got hitched.
  29. Kenshi: In Hollywood? I bet that was epic.
  30. Johnny: Small service, modest church. Simpler times.
  31. Raiden: Today we gather to witness the union of Harumi and Kuai Liang. Let us celebrate their bond, as they celebrate each other.
  32. Johnny: Doesn’t that come after “I do”?
  33. Raiden: By the Elder Gods!
  34. Johnny: Oh, hell no! We are not doing the Red Wedding.
  35. KungLao: What?!
  36. Johnny: Game of Thrones?! Season Three, Episode 9!
  37. Johnny: You, my friend, are hopeless.
  38. Raiden: Both of you! Not now!
  39. Harumi: Go. I’ll be fine.
  40. Johnny: Don’t worry. I’ve got you.
  41. Harumi: You do?
  42. Johnny: God? Please let her have a sister.
  43. Johnny: When did the Lin Kuei go mecha anime?! Who the hell are they?!
  44.  
  45. Act 305:
  46.  
  47. Scorpion: You grasp feebly for honor amidst this brazen assault?!
  48. Scorpion: It disgusts me, how you’ve corrupted the Lin Kuei!
  49.  
  50. Act 306:
  51.  
  52. SubZero: Are you ready, brother? To reap the reward of your faithlessness?
  53. Harumi: You want him?! You must kill me!
  54. SubZero: If she makes it necessary, grant her wish.
  55. Harumi: You know Bi-Han is wrong. That he acts without honor.
  56. Scorpion: That. Is a lie.
  57. Scorpion: Spoken by the man who let my father perish.
  58. Scorpion: So impatient to lead, to make the Lin Kuei his, my “brother” went even further. He broke his sacred oath, and sided with outsiders against Earthrealm!
  59. Scorpion: Did I have this when last we saw each other?
  60. Scorpion: Who do you think is responsible?
  61. SubZero: Every word.
  62. SubZero: Now that you know, you are a threat to the Lin Kuei.
  63. SubZero: And you must be imprisoned alongside my brother.
  64.  
  65. Act 307:
  66.  
  67. Scorpion: That’s no excuse.
  68. Harumi: Please, Kuai Liang.
  69. Harumi: She was deceived. Give her mercy, your gift to me on our wedding day.
  70. Scorpion: As you wish.
  71. Scorpion: But know you are not forgiven. This day has seen too much Shirai Ryu blood.
  72. Raiden: The Lin Kuei retreat! We’ve turned them away.
  73. Scorpion: Thank you, Raiden. And also to the Shaolin.
  74. Scorpion: I am sorry to have entangled you in my family’s squabble.
  75. Raiden: Respectfully, no. Their crimes are not only against you, but against Earthrealm and Outworld.
  76. Raiden: Their fate lies in the hands of Lord Liu Kang and Empress Mileena.
  77.  
  78. Act 308:
  79.  
  80. MileenaHuman: Spare their lives?! Are you mad??
  81. LiuKang: I agree they must answer for aiding Shao’s rebellion. And of course, I leave their punishment to you.
  82. LiuKang: But killing them will neither restore Sindel, nor ease your loss.
  83. MileenaHuman: But it will give me great pleasure.
  84. Kitana: Empress, please.
  85. MileenaHuman: When Shao’s rebellion ended and he was imprisoned, my advisors also urged mercy. To smother the seditious fire he’d lit.
  86. MileenaHuman: But it stayed smoldering among his followers. And when Shao escaped from his cell, it reignited!
  87. MileenaHuman: Now my sister’s armies are stretched to their limits!
  88. LiuKang: And as always, Earthrealm’s might is at your disposal, to help deal with Shao’s threat.
  89. LiuKang: What I ask in return is that together, we try to break the cycle of violence. As partners in peace.
  90. MileenaHuman: What’s this?!
  91. LiuKang: Interlopers from yet another timeline.
  92. Geras: Yes. But whose?
  93. LiuKang: Havik.
  94. Geras: The Cleric of Chaos is a Keeper of Time? This day will not end well.
  95. HavikTitan: How can it not? I finally meet the man who inspired my life’s work.
  96. HavikTitan: Thank you, Lord Liu Kang.
  97. LiuKang: Spare me the theatrics, Havik. Explain.
  98. HavikTitan: I fought against you at the pyramid, alongside Titan Shang Tsung. He came to my timeline and sought my aid.
  99. HavikTitan: Until then, I’d no inkling other timelines existed. Let alone that they could be made to fight.
  100. LiuKang: That is why you are here? To pit my timeline against yours in kombat?
  101. HavikTitan: Yours, mine. All timelines!
  102. HavikTitan: You cannot imagine the chaos.
  103. LiuKang: Can I presume the next death you seek is mine?
  104. HavikTitan: That comes later.
  105. HavikTitan: For now, I only need him.
  106. SubZero: We are finished if Geras is abducted. We must break free!
  107. Khameleon: The odds are not in our favor.
  108. Tanya: We are Umgadi, Khameleon. We won’t fail.
  109. Khameleon: You and Sub-Zero won’t earn the Empress’s mercy. Once set, her mind doesn’t change.
  110.  
  111. Act 309:
  112.  
  113. Khameleon: My sisters!
  114.  
  115. Act 311:
  116.  
  117. RaidenChaos: Deal with them.
  118.  
  119. Act 312:
  120.  
  121. Khameleon: Your weapons need work. They were defeated easily --
  122.  
  123. Act 313:
  124.  
  125. Khameleon: You are a good fighter.
  126.  
  127. Act 314:
  128.  
  129. LiuKang: With me.
  130. Raiden: His skills. They’re unnatural!
  131. KungLao: How do we fight them?!
  132. LiuKang: Trust your training and each other, to endure and survive.
  133. Khameleon: If only you had built it for a more noble purpose.
  134. GerasChaos: Whatever its intended purpose, it now serves Lord Havik’s.
  135. RaidenChaos: You will fight and die for his amusement.
  136. RaidenChaos: Rejoice! Embrace the chaos!
  137.  
  138. Act 315:
  139.  
  140. KenshiChaos: He is ours, Lord Havik!
  141. HavikTitan: When I return, there will be anarchy.
  142.  
  143. Act 316:
  144.  
  145. HavikTitan: I hope you are fond of chaos.
  146.  
  147. Act 317:
  148.  
  149. MileenaHuman: Tanya! Detain her!
  150. Kitana: Empress, Perhaps she has earned mercy. She aided us in kombat.
  151. MileenaHuman: Only because we faced a common foe.
  152. MileenaHuman: She was complicit in mother’s death! She deserves no mercy.
  153. LiuKang: She may not, Empress. But we will need her aid in the current crisis.
  154. LiuKang: We should take the time to discuss.
  155. MileenaHuman: As you wish.
  156.  
  157. Act 318:
  158.  
  159. KenshiChaos: He is a gifted fighter. He will do well in the arena.
  160. HavikTitan: No. For him, I have other plans. To pass the time while I infuse my Kamidogu with Geras’s time crystals.
  161. SubZero: What are Kamidogu?
  162. HavikTitan: You don’t know? See for yourself.
  163. HavikTitan: They are powerful, ancient relics. When used together, they can remake this timeline’s reality.
  164. HavikTitan: My genius was discerning that they could also shape the reality of other timelines.
  165. SubZero: If first infused with their time crystals.
  166. HavikTitan: He has brains to go with his brawn.
  167. SubZero: Shouldn’t you have captured Liu Kang? Why capture Geras?
  168. HavikTitan: Because he is the only being who has lived in all prior timelines. Which means the time crystals within him contain the building blocks of all current timelines.
  169. HavikTitan: Once my Kamidogu are infused with them, I will have the power to remake all timelines as I see fit.
  170. SubZero: Condemning us all to anarchy.
  171. HavikTitan: Not condemned, elevated! Perfected.
  172. HavikTitan: As you will be, once I’m finished.
  173.  
  174. Act 319:
  175.  
  176. Kitana: This new Havik is different from ours, the one who helped Shao’s rebellion.
  177. Kitana: He doesn’t want freedom, he wants to burn everything down. Smashing timelines together so he can watch them fight?
  178. LiuKang: Our Havik is less crazed because I recrafted his destiny when I restarted time. Meeting “Titan” Havik proves it was wise I did.
  179. MileenaHuman: First that Shang Tsung, now this Havik! Will the threats from these “Titans” never cease?
  180. MileenaHuman: Tell me! How do we escape this crisis!?
  181. LiuKang: We must rescue Geras, before Havik takes from him what he needs.
  182. MileenaHuman: I will dispatch several legions. Kitana will --
  183. LiuKang: Your Majesty, they are needed here. Shao’s escape, his renewed rebellion, leave Outworld vulnerable.
  184. LiuKang: Similarly, I cannot go. As my absence would leave the timeline vulnerable.
  185. LiuKang: I can send them immediately, under Scorpion’s command --
  186. Scorpion: I want neither’s help. I will go alone.
  187. LiuKang: That would be unwise.
  188. LiuKang: Neither will betray us.
  189.  
  190. Act 320:
  191.  
  192. Scorpion: No. I am also not sure I trust you.
  193. Scorpion: But Liu Kang is right. We must act.
  194. Scorpion: You understand the terms of your release?
  195. Scorpion: Is secondary. We save him only if the mission is not put at risk.
  196. Scorpion: Do not forget.
  197. Scorpion: Move. Liu Kang is waiting.
  198.  
  199. Act 321:
  200.  
  201. Scorpion: No distractions, either of you.
  202.  
  203. Act 323:
  204.  
  205. ErmacChaos: We know you lead those who resist us. Lord Havik wants their names.
  206. JohnnyWWII: Eh, quit beating your gums. He’s getting nothing from me.
  207. BarakaChaos: Once he breaks the cryomancer, you will be next.
  208. JohnnyWWII: Name: Johnathan Cage
  209. JohnnyWWII: Rank: Lieutenant Colonel
  210. JohnnyWWII: Serial Number: Piss off
  211.  
  212. Act 324:
  213.  
  214. Scorpion: I concur.
  215. JohnnyWWII: Welcome to the party, baby doll! What’s your name?
  216. JohnnyWWII: I’ll call you any time you want.
  217. JohnnyWWII: I love a broad that can fight.
  218.  
  219. Act 325:
  220.  
  221. JohnnyWWII: I like your grit. You’ve ruined me for the girls back home.
  222. ErmacChaos: We seek chaos. You defend order.
  223. ErmacChaos: It will be destroyed.
  224.  
  225. Act 326:
  226.  
  227. JohnnyWWII: What in blue blazes?!
  228. JohnnyWWII: Oh shit… This is some bad business.
  229. JohnnyWWII: Is that what the hell he is?!
  230. ReptileChaos: Lord Havik wants you captured. Your choice if it is dead or alive.
  231.  
  232. Act 327:
  233.  
  234. Scorpion: Are you hurt?
  235. JohnnyWWII: Allow me salute your tailor. That is a helluva fine suit.
  236. JohnnyWWII: Lieutenant Colonel Johnathon Cage. U.S. Army, 44th Infantry.
  237. JohnnyWWII: One moment, I was fighting Hitler in France. The next, I was here, fighting some asshole named Havik.
  238. Scorpion: We have a Johnny Cage where we come from. Though the two of you have little in common.
  239. JohnnyWWII: Six months ago, I’d have been gobsmacked by that. But now? I realize I’m... We’re?... A dime a dozen. Eh, this mashed-up worlds thing has my brain FUBAR.
  240. RainEmperor: Lieutenant Colonel! What happened?!
  241. JohnnyWWII: At ease, friends. He’s with me.
  242. RainEmperor: Thank Argus you are safe!
  243. RainEmperor: I am Rain. No need to use my title, as I no longer have an empire. Havik has taken it.
  244. RainEmperor: I assume you’re among his latest victims? You do not yet seem the worse for wear.
  245. Scorpion: Havik arrived recently in our timeline, kidnapping a being who is key to his plans to destroy it. We are here to retrieve him.
  246. JohnnyWWII: We’ve been trying to take Havik down, but we’ve got shit to show for it. Our attack on his citadel was a bust. Lotta folks died. Rain’s wife, Tanya, got captured.
  247. RainEmperor: She is to fight for Havik’s perverse pleasure tomorrow in his arena. To the death.
  248. RainEmperor: The being Havik kidnapped: I would think he is at the citadel. It is where Havik spends his time.
  249. JohnnyWWII: Sure thing. But getting in, finding your friend, that’s a whole other kettle of fish.
  250. JohnnyWWII: Rain’s wife is the only one with the scoop on the citadel’s layout.
  251. Scorpion: Then we must save her. Before it is too late.
  252. RainEmperor: Your aid is welcome. But be warned, death is more likely than success.
  253.  
  254. Act 329:
  255.  
  256. HavikTitan: Care to make a wager?
  257. TakedaChaos: The sorcerer. No question.
  258. KenshiChaos: Frost will win. Every variant of her who’s ever fought here has been fierce.
  259. HavikTitan: I should have kept Kronika alive after taking her Hourglass. So I could rub her nose in what I’ve made of her “golden balance”.
  260. TakedaChaos: She would disapprove?
  261. HavikTitan: She would despise it. It was her own fault she didn’t think me a threat.
  262.  
  263. Act 330:
  264.  
  265. RainEmperor: All equally revolting. Reiko and Li Mei, the rulers Tanya and I deposed, also revered blood sports. I had hoped I had seen their end.
  266. Scorpion: How long did you hold power?
  267. RainEmperor: Before Havik came? Long enough to miss what he destroyed.
  268. RainEmperor: Everything changed in an instant. Our timeline merged into his and was reduced to anarchy.
  269.  
  270. Act 332:
  271.  
  272. HavikTitan: Kenshi wins.
  273. HavikTitan: My friends, my friends. If you enjoyed that, you will revel in what comes next.
  274. HavikTitan: A new kombatant will entertain us. One who dared to resist.
  275. HavikTitan: Welcome Tanya!
  276.  
  277. Act 334:
  278.  
  279. RainEmperor: If she is hurt before we can --
  280. JohnnyWWII: Don’t worry. We’ll surprise ‘ em before kombat begins.
  281.  
  282. Act 335:
  283.  
  284. HavikTitan: It seems we have an unexpected, but welcome, wrinkle.
  285. HavikTitan: Tanya will have partners in kombat!
  286.  
  287. Act 338:
  288.  
  289. TanyaEmpress: Rain! What are you doing? You shouldn’t be here!
  290. RainEmperor: Without my Empress, I am not an Emperor.
  291. Scorpion: You celebrate too soon. This fight is just beginning.
  292. TanyaEmpress: Who are they?
  293. JohnnyWWII: They’re friends, Tanya.
  294.  
  295. Act 339:
  296.  
  297. HavikTitan: You had no chance of sneaking in here unnoticed. Kenshi’s blade excels at ferreting out intruders.
  298. HavikTitan: I was not expecting you three quite so soon. Your Liu Kang was shrewd to take the initiative.
  299. RainEmperor: Come down here, Havik! We are waiting.
  300. TanyaEmpress: Yes! Entertain your lackeys by fighting us yourself!
  301. HavikTitan: You would die too quickly. My followers deserve so much more.
  302. RainEmperor: A vampire? A demon? Havik needs to do better than that.
  303. AshrahChaos: When my kriss fells you, order’s collapse will be hastened.
  304. AshrahChaos: With every strike of it, my soul is one step closer to chaos!
  305.  
  306. Act 340:
  307.  
  308. RainEmperor: As long as I live, I will keep anarchy at bay.
  309. RainEmperor: They will overwhelm us if we don’t escape.
  310. SindelChaos: Well done, Husband. We have them.
  311. TanyaEmpress: They fight like Reiko and Li Mei.
  312. RainEmperor: We defeated those tyrants, we can defeat these.
  313. RainEmperor: I’ve faith in Argus, Delia, and you.
  314.  
  315. Act 341:
  316.  
  317. RainEmperor: Tyrants always fall.
  318. TanyaEmpress: I adore your quick thinking.
  319. RainEmperor: Just one of the many reasons you wed me.
  320. ShaoChaos: Lovesick fools!
  321. ShaoChaos: Cast your eyes here, not on each other! To behold those who bring you death.
  322.  
  323. Act 342:
  324.  
  325. RainEmperor: Do not be so quick to demand attention.
  326. RainEmperor: Yes. Expeditiously.
  327.  
  328. Act 343:
  329.  
  330. HavikTitan: This will be amusing.
  331.  
  332. Act 344:
  333.  
  334. JohnnyWWII: Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!
  335. Scorpion: We must choose another path.
  336. HavikTitan: Escape? The tunnel is an entrance, not an exit.
  337. HavikTitan: You are now in the Maze...
  338.  
  339. Act 345:
  340.  
  341. HavikTitan: Its route is ever-changing. Its traps, beyond ingenious. Its denizens, wickedly lethal.
  342.  
  343. Act 346:
  344.  
  345. HavikTitan: No one survives. I delight in devising new ways to kill.
  346. Scorpion: We won’t give you the pleasure. We won’t die here.
  347. HavikTitan: Death is assured. The only question is how it claims you.
  348. RainEmperor: We will weather this storm together.
  349.  
  350. Act 348:
  351.  
  352. JohnnyWWII: Well this is a pretty pickle.
  353. Scorpion: Agreed. Come.
  354.  
  355. Act 349:
  356.  
  357. RainEmperor: Handle the others, please. The Empress and Emperor are ours.
  358. TanyaEmpress: I am not surprised that you aligned with Havik. You’ll do anything to obtain the power you crave.
  359. LiMeiEmpress: Do not lecture us. You’re no better! That is why you stole our throne!
  360. RainEmperor: We acted for Outworld, not ourselves. To free it from your corrupt regime.
  361.  
  362. Act 350:
  363.  
  364. RainEmperor: You will never regain your power.
  365. RainEmperor: Merciful Delia! How did --
  366. HavikTitan: Chaos manifests in myriad ways. In this case, by undoing what you’ve done.
  367. HavikTitan: You will fight them again and again until you finish them. Only then may you move on.
  368.  
  369. Act 351:
  370.  
  371. RainEmperor: I take no joy in what comes next.
  372. TanyaEmpress: It is their lives or ours. You heard Havik.
  373. RainEmperor: But I wish only to take his.
  374. RainEmperor: Put them out of their misery.
  375. HavikTitan: Now that is a kill. Executed with such flair.
  376. HavikTitan: You have earned my favor, and may proceed.
  377. TanyaEmpress: I am so weary of his voice.
  378. TanyaEmpress: Hopefully, Havik keeps his word.
  379.  
  380. Act 352:
  381.  
  382. TanyaEmpress: Thank Argus!
  383. HavikTitan: Are you prepared for the next?
  384. RainEmperor: What now?!
  385. HavikTitan: It is fiendishly simple. To survive you must open that door.
  386. RainEmperor: Havik let us pass so he could crush us. His is a diseased mind.
  387. TanyaEmpress: This is getting us nowhere.
  388. RainEmperor: I will buy you some.
  389. TanyaEmpress: No! I won’t.
  390. RainEmperor: You must! I cannot hold these back much longer. I won’t escape.
  391. TanyaEmpress: Rain, I --
  392. TanyaEmpress: No! We vowed never to leave each other’s side.
  393. RainEmperor: We also vowed to preserve the Empire.
  394. RainEmperor: Go, Tanya. Please.
  395. TanyaEmpress: Every day, you remind me why I chose you.
  396. TanyaEmpress: Goodbye, my love.
  397.  
  398. Act 353:
  399.  
  400. JohnnyWWII: These corridors go on and on like my old C.O. Damn, Major Blade could talk!
  401. Scorpion: Thank Harumi. It was her request.
  402. Scorpion: How long have we known each other?! That you could ever believe --
  403. Scorpion: You blame me for your actions? Is that what you are saying?!
  404. Scorpion: We will finish this later.
  405.  
  406. Act 354:
  407.  
  408. TanyaEmpress: This fiendish place. To think it will by husband’s tomb...
  409. TanyaEmpress: Please, don’t. If I dwell more on it, I will come undone.
  410. TanyaEmpress: Speak of anything else. Perhaps your friends.
  411. TanyaEmpress: Is your fight over land? Resources?
  412. TanyaEmpress: And that is something worth killing for?
  413. TanyaEmpress: Untold died satisfying Reiko and Li Mei’s barbaric whims. Ours was not a squabble over visions for the future.
  414.  
  415. Act 355:
  416.  
  417. TakedaChaos: If this keeps up, they may fight each other.
  418. HavikTitan: They won’t get the chance. Neither will survive the next encounter.
  419.  
  420. Act 357:
  421.  
  422. TanyaEmpress: Brilliant. Which one? They could lead anywhere.
  423. TanyaEmpress: Back the way we came! Hurry!
  424.  
  425. Act 358:
  426.  
  427. TanyaEmpress: Your armor failed to detect that, too?
  428. TanyaEmpress: We can get past, if I can calm her.
  429. MileenaChaos: By filling her empty belly.
  430. MileenaChaos: Orin is famished. She hasn’t fed in days.
  431.  
  432. Act 359:
  433.  
  434. TanyaEmpress: How dare you abuse such a magnificent creature.
  435. TanyaEmpress: Plainly, they are gluttons for punishment.
  436. HavikTitan: They fight on to entertain me. They know I will savor this kill.
  437. HavikTitan: How will you, if you cannot keep your feet?
  438. TanyaEmpress: Havik thought that would kill us? He has no idea what we can do.
  439. KitanaChaos: You are able, not invincible. Have no doubt that you will die here.
  440.  
  441. Act 360:
  442.  
  443. TanyaEmpress: It will not be you who kills me.
  444.  
  445. Act 361:
  446.  
  447. KenshiChaos: She must also be a telepath.
  448. HavikTitan: It would seem. Read their thoughts.
  449.  
  450. Act 362:
  451.  
  452. TanyaEmpress: Oh Mighty Orin, I am Tanya. If you can hear me, respond in kind.
  453. TanyaEmpress: Orin, I beseech you. We mean no harm.
  454. Orin: You speak dragon tongue, and with the proper respect?
  455. Orin: Come. I will not smite you -- Yet.
  456. TanyaEmpress: She has opened the door. Come!
  457.  
  458. Act 363:
  459.  
  460. HavikTitan: Kenshi?
  461. KenshiChaos: I do not understand them. The language is foreign.
  462.  
  463. Act 364:
  464.  
  465. Orin: Before Havik destroyed my reality, I was beloved by gods. But then he trapped me here, and condemned me to this living death.
  466. Orin: In all the time since, no one has proffered me goodwill. Why do you?
  467. TanyaEmpress: So we may pass unharmed and escape to defeat Havik. We hope an exit lies ahead.
  468. Orin: Your hope is misplaced. There are no exits. All paths lead here.
  469. JohnnyWWII: Sarge did not cover this in basic...
  470. TanyaEmpress: No, Orin. They are friends!
  471. Orin: If you could leave, where would you go?
  472. TanyaEmpress: To Havik’s Citadel, where their comrade is being held captive. If we free him, we can save their timeline, and Havik will fall.
  473. Orin: Show me your destination. I will send you there.
  474. Scorpion: What did she say?
  475. TanyaEmpress: That she can help.
  476.  
  477. Act 365:
  478.  
  479. HavikTitan: Help? How?
  480.  
  481. Act 366:
  482.  
  483. Orin: Hmmm... It is heavily guarded. A direct assault, impossible. But if I can get you inside...
  484. TanyaEmpress: Inside? Natural laws don’t apply there. Sending us is --
  485. Orin: Difficult, but achievable. Stand back.
  486. TanyaEmpress: Everyone, stand back!
  487.  
  488. Act 367:
  489.  
  490. HavikTitan: No. This will not do.
  491.  
  492. Act 368:
  493.  
  494. Orin: Go! Havik drains my power.
  495. TanyaEmpress: Thank you, Orin. I will come back for you after this crisis passes.
  496. TanyaEmpress: We are leaving!
  497.  
  498. Act 369:
  499.  
  500. HavikTitan: My new minion will have to occupy them until we arrive. Warn him the citadel has been infiltrated.
  501.  
  502. Act 370:
  503.  
  504. JohnnyWWII: Did we go on a bender I don’t remember? I feel like I’m heavily sauced.
  505. TanyaEmpress: Do not try to make sense of it. Anything is possible in Havik’s domain.
  506. Scorpion: How do you know the citadel's secrets?
  507. TanyaEmpress: I spent months posing as one of Havik’s minions, to gather intelligence for our assault.
  508. TanyaEmpress: There. Havik’s Foundry. If your friend is here, he is beyond that door.
  509. Scorpion: Are you all right?
  510. Scorpion: You saved my life. Thank you.
  511. TanyaEmpress: Be careful. Fall off the pathways, and you will fall forever.
  512.  
  513. Act 371:
  514.  
  515. TanyaEmpress: Havik’s “will” will not be done.
  516. TanyaEmpress: You know him? From your timeline?
  517. TanyaEmpress: Do not fret. I am sure we haven’t seen the last of him.
  518.  
  519. Act 372:
  520.  
  521. TanyaEmpress: Thus far your “brotherhood” does not impress.
  522. TanyaEmpress: Havik is deluded if he thinks you can contain us.
  523.  
  524. Act 373:
  525.  
  526. TanyaEmpress: I remain unimpressed.
  527. LiuKangBrotherhood: You will be scorched by the flames of anarchy!
  528.  
  529. Act 374:
  530.  
  531. TanyaEmpress: I will be glad when this day is finished.
  532. TanyaEmpress: The foundry door is up ahead.
  533. Scorpion: Lead on, Empress.
  534. Scorpion: Defending him?! Is there no low he won’t sink to?!
  535. Scorpion: That may be so. But if he gets in our way --
  536. Scorpion: Only if it won’t jeopardize the mission.
  537. Scorpion: He is owed no more respect than he showed my father.
  538.  
  539. Act 375:
  540.  
  541. Scorpion: Your new attire suits you. It is as black as your heart.
  542. Scorpion: It is your ambition that is blind, Bi-Han! As always.
  543. Scorpion: Though he twisted your mind to his purpose, he left your desires unchanged.
  544. TanyaEmpress: Scorpion needs help.
  545. TanyaEmpress: No promises. Havik must be stopped, no matter the cost.
  546.  
  547. Act 376:
  548.  
  549. TanyaEmpress: Thankfully, death won’t be necessary.
  550. Scorpion: Knows nothing of Havik’s magic.
  551. Scorpion: Liu Kang is your only hope. You should not have plotted against him.
  552. TanyaEmpress: You refuse to help? He’s your brother.
  553. Scorpion: He was my brother.
  554.  
  555. Act 377:
  556.  
  557. Scorpion: Havik wants his time crystals. These relics must be extracting it.
  558. Scorpion: When you are ready, we must leave.
  559. Geras: And take the Kamidogu as well.
  560. JohnnyWWII: Who was the wise guy who plastered these on here!
  561. Scorpion: Now, Geras! We have them!
  562. HavikTitan: Gather my minions. We go to Liu Kang’s timeline!
  563.  
  564. Act 378:
  565.  
  566. TanyaEmpress: Should Liu Kang be treating him?
  567. Scorpion: As a god, it is his prerogative. I would not be so forgiving.
  568. LiuKang: Only his mind is mended.
  569. LiuKang: Havik’s magic is unlike anything I have encountered. It will not be easily mastered.
  570. LiuKang: While our conflict remains, its resolution must wait. It will be moot, if we do not stop Havik.
  571. Scorpion: Only if we keep them from him. We can assume he is already on his way.
  572. LiuKang: Once in the Temple of the Elements, they will be beyond his reach.
  573. LiuKang: The others wait for you outside. They will accompany you on the journey.
  574. LiuKang: Now, Bi-Han. What can you tell me of your captivity?
  575. LiuKang: So he is aware of our defenses.
  576. LiuKang: He will use them to hasten capture of this timeline. By projecting his chaos into all realms at once.
  577. LiuKang: Of the failings which should shame you, this is not one. Few could withstand a Titan.
  578. LiuKang: Havik.
  579.  
  580. Act 379:
  581.  
  582. HavikTitan: Raiding my citadel, stealing my Kamidogu: your warriors are adept at creating chaos.
  583. LiuKang: So good of you to approve.
  584. HavikTitan: Approve?! You’ve dared to throw my plans into disarray!
  585. HavikTitan: The Kamidogu are powered and I am ready. Nothing can stop me from seizing this timeline.
  586. HavikTitan: Dispose of them as you wish. The more painful it is, the better.
  587.  
  588. Act 380:
  589.  
  590. Scorpion: Of course. You have no flaws.
  591.  
  592. Act 381:
  593.  
  594. SubZeroChaos: I will bury you in a glacier of hail.
  595. Scorpion: What is more important? Winning this fight? Or protecting your ego?
  596. ScorpionChaos: Shall we leave them to their quarrel?
  597. SubZeroChaos: No. Let us silence it forever.
  598.  
  599. Act 382:
  600.  
  601. Scorpion: Bi-Han, wait!
  602. Scorpion: That was entirely unhelpful. We could have pressed them for information.
  603. LiuKang: Possibly. But we will never know.
  604. LiuKang: We would have been better served had cooler heads prevailed.
  605. LiuKang: Agreed. We will gather my champions and depart for Ying Valley.
  606.  
  607. Act 383:
  608.  
  609. HavikTitan: Now the end begins.
  610. HavikTitan: Geras?
  611. HavikTitan: This timeline is mine.
  612. TakedaChaos: Lord Havik, look!
  613. HavikTitan: Liu Kang and his allies are determined to keep things interesting.
  614. HavikTitan: Thoughts?
  615. KenshiChaos: The more. The merrier.
  616. HavikTitan: There will be blood.
  617. LiuKang: This is what you are meant to do. Defend Earthrealm.
  618. LiuKang: Your desires are not at issue. It is your methods for achieving them.
  619. KenshiChaos: Enough toying with them. We’ve a job to do.
  620. TakedaChaos: Patience, father.
  621. TakedaChaos: You’re the one who taught that death should be entertaining.
  622.  
  623. Act 384:
  624.  
  625. LiuKang: I have them.
  626. LiuKang: One does not trifle with gods.
  627. KenshiChaos: No, one kills them.
  628. KenshiChaos: We dispatch gods, titans, whomever Lord Havik needs destroyed.
  629. LiuKang: Stay back. I will finish this.
  630.  
  631. Act 385:
  632.  
  633. LiuKang: Desist, Havik! Or be banished to the Void!
  634. HavikTitan: Submit to your order and abandon my triumph? You’ve gone mad.
  635. LiuKang: This timeline will not succumb to chaos. Its beings are not meant to live that way!
  636. HavikTitan: Meant to? There are no sacred laws. No divine rules!
  637. HavikTitan: I choose what is right. Because I hold the power. And I choose to bless all beings, everywhere, with anarchy.
  638. TanyaEmpress: What in Argus’s name...
  639. Johnny: Great! Now we’re fighting math?! I hate math!
  640. LiuKang: Indeed.
  641. HavikTitan: Every timeline I take, it comes down to this. A battle I never lose. A battle between titans.
  642. LiuKang: No, Bi-Han! Your ego is too--
  643. HavikTitan: Fool, you have learned nothing.
  644. HavikTitan: Chaos is unknowable. Unpredictable. You are in no way prepared to stop the pain you will endure.
  645.  
  646. Act 386:
  647.  
  648. LiuKang: Bi-Han, stand down!
  649. LiuKang: We do not know how he is joined with his timeline. Destroying him could wipe it from existence. And I will not kill innocent millions.
  650. LiuKang: Enough! I have had my fill of your selfishness.
  651. LiuKang: Thank you, Geras.
  652. LiuKang: And you, for your support.
  653. LiuKang: Very well.
  654. LiuKang: To reward your efforts on our timeline’s behalf, I will see that you are spared Empress Mileena’s wrath.
  655. LiuKang: Go. Return to the Lin Kuei.
  656. LiuKang: He will remain with me until he has been restored.
  657. LiuKang: As I see fit.
  658. LiuKang: Further Lin Kuei transgressions will be severely punished. As their Grandmaster in Bi-Han’s absence, you will be held responsible.
  659. Scorpion: Can Havik’s magic truly be undone?
  660.  
  661. Act 387:
  662.  
  663. LiuKang: Yes. Though comprehending its intricacies may take years.
  664. LiuKang: For now, Bi-Han will reside at the Temple of the Elements. It is safer for all that way.
  665. Scorpion: I know Harumi’s thoughts. But I remain unsure.
  666. LiuKang: Trust your wife, Kuai Liang. Avail yourself of her wisdom.
  667.  
  668. Act 388:
  669.  
  670. Scorpion: I promised a decision, and I have one.
  671. Scorpion: You fought well against Havik. You also saved my life. But that is -
  672. Scorpion: But that is not all.
  673. Scorpion: I had no business judging you, for believing Bi-Han’s lies. I, too, was taken in. It is he, and he alone, who deserves my ire.
  674. Scorpion: You, however, deserve an invitation.
  675. Scorpion: Thank you... Grandmaster.
