Chapter 01: Mortal Kombat

 * Long ago, there existed six realms:
 * Chaosrealm
 * Earthrealm
 * Edenia
 * Netherrealm
 * Orderrealm
 * Outworld
 * All six realms co-existed in peace and harmony...until Outworld invaded and merged with Edenia.
 * In response to this unlawful invasion, the Elder Gods—the watchers and protectors of the six realms—announced Mortal Kombat, a martial arts tournament held once every 500 years, in which a conquering realm must defeating a defending realm before invasion and mergence.
 * If the conquering realm wins ten tournaments in a row, then they would be allowed to conquer and merge with the realm they defeated.
 * If the defending realm wins ten tournaments in a row, then the conquering realm would be forbidden from making anymore invasion attempts.
 * In the first Outworld vs. Earthrealm tournament, a martial arts sorcerer named Shang Tsung competed on behalf of Earthrealm and won by absorbing the souls of the defeated Kombatants.
 * Because of his unruly nature, Shang Tsung was disowned by the Elder Gods.
 * Angered, Shang Tsung won the next OvEa tournament—this time on behalf of Outworld. Upon victory, he claimed the tournament for himself as ownership and legalized killing—dubbing them as "Fatalities"; all future Outworld-hosted tournaments would be held on his island.
 * Shang Tsung would then go on to win eight more tournaments for Outworld; however, on the eve of their final victory, Shang Tsung was defeated by a Shaolin Monk named The Great Kung Lao, thus resetting Outworld's victory streak and earning Earthrealm its first of ten required victories.
 * Kung Lao then won eight OvEa tournaments, leaving Earthrealm one victory away from permanent protection from Outworld.
 * In desperation, Shang Tsung enlisted the aid of Goro, the prince of the Shokan race, to compete; Goro defeated and beat Kung Lao to death, thus resetting Earthrealm's streak and restarting Outworld's.
 * Goro went on to win eight more tournaments for Outworld, leaving one victory away from conquering Earthrealm.
 * For the next tournament, Shang Tsung invited many Kombatants to compete.
 * While many Kombatants (like Kano, Scorpion, and Sub-Zero) are willing to murder their opponents, others (like Johnny Cage, Liu Kang, and Sonya) are more merciful and willing to spare their opponents.
 * The spared Earthrealm-aligned Kombatants are later assassinated by an invisible figure.
 * The tournament continues until only six Kombatants remain:
 * Johnny Cage: A failing martial arts actor hoping for a comeback.
 * Kano: The leader of the Black Dragon mercenary and arms dealing organization, hired on behalf of Shang Tsung.
 * Liu Kang: A Shaolin Monk born and raised by the White Lotus Society at the Wu Shi Academy.
 * Accompanying Liu Kang is his mentor Raiden, the God of Thunder and Protector of Earthrealm.
 * Scorpion (AKA Hanzo Hasashi): A undead Japanese ninja of the Shirai Ryu, seeking revenge on Sub-Zero for the death of his family and clan.
 * Sonya Blade (AKA Bi-Han): A Special Forces agent hunting Kano and the Black Dragon for the death of her partner and twin brother Daniel Blade.
 * Sub-Zero: A Chinese ninja of the Lin Kuei, hired on behalf of Shang Tsung.
 * Johnny is defeated but spared by Sonya. On his way back to the boat. Johnny is attacked by the invisible assassin and thrown into the Pit, but he survives, and the assassin reveals his invisible form: Reptile (AKA Syzoth). Reptile is defeated and exposed to the other Kombatants by Johnny, and Shang Tsung reveals that he hired Reptile to assassinate the Earthrealm-aligned Kombatants so he could steal their souls and retain his immortality—an act he has been doing to every defeated Earthrealm-aligned Kombatant since the first tournament.
 * Scorpion defeats and burns Sub-Zero to death.
 * Eventually, Liu Kang remains as the last remaining Earthrealm-aligned Kombatant. Liu Kang is challenged by Goro, but despite near death, the former is victorious.
 * Desperate to achieve victory on behalf of Outworld, Shang Tsung fights Liu Kang as the final challenge, but he is defeated as well, breaking Outworld's streak and protecting Earthrealm for at least 5000 years.
 * Johnny Cage makes a movie named Mortal Kombat, detaining his experience at the tournament (yet falsely proclaiming himself as the victor), reviving his movie career.
 * Sonya continues her pursuit of Kano.
 * Scorpion returns to the remains of the Shirai Ryu with Sub-Zero's remains, announcing that they have been avenged; however, the spirits of his family and clan don't welcome him home for some reason.
 * Liu Kang returns home and is celebrated for his victory by Raiden.
