The scene changes to The Pit. Cyrax is walking along it when a growl attracts his attention. He turns around to see Baraka alonside with a tall woman with four arms.
CYRAX: What are you doing? I'm not here to fight you. I'm assigned to kill Johnny Cage.
SHEEVA: Shang Tsung and Lily Tsung no longer has need of you.
She holds two of her arms up to stop Baraka from intervening.
CYRAX: What do you mean?
SHEEVA: They are terminating your agreement. And you!
They fight. Although unprepared to take on a member of the Shokan race, Cyrax and his weapons prove to be up to the challenge. After a heated fight, he manages to defeat Sheeva.
CYRAX: I need to have a talk with your Masters.
Baraka roars and charges forward, blades unsheathed.
BARAKA: This fight is not over.
CYRAX: You mean to finish me? You couldn't even stop the actor!
They fight. Baraka's fury, as ferocious as his blades, is still not enough to defeat Cyrax's tricks and skill. The Tarkatan nomad is soon lying on the floor next to Sheeva.
CYRAX: Now this fight is over. Shang Tsung and Lily Tsung has turned on me. I need to find out why.
Back in the arena, Shang Tsung is talking with Sektor. Cyrax looks over to Raiden, who greets him with a nod. Cyrax then walks over to Sektor and the Tsungs
CYRAX: Sektor, we need to talk. Our hosts tried to have me killed.
SHANG TSUNG: You were speaking with the Thunder God. Your indescretion has jepordised me and my daughters plan.
LILY TSUNG: You should of shut your mouth giving information to that imbecile Thunder God!
SEKTOR: Cyrax is Lin Kuei. He will complete his task.
LILY TSUNG: He better complete his task, otherwise I will kill him myself.
SHANG TSUNG: Now now daughter, Sektor still needs him. The next match will be Cyrax versus Johnny Cage.
JOHNNY CAGE: What, me? All right then.
Johnny steps up to the arena floor.
JOHNNY CAGE: Not everyone gets to rumble with a celebrity. Ready for your beatdown, Sunshine? Here it comes!
They fight. The battle is an intense display of martial arts and dirty tricks, but in the end Cyrax manages to emerge victorious.
CYRAX: That should shut you up.
Cyrax stalks over to Cage and lifts him up by the neck, preparing to land a final blow.
LILY TSUNG: Finish him!
Cyrax looks over to Tsung, then to Raiden, who shakes his head. He makes his decision.
CYRAX: I won't kill him!
LILY TSUNG: Your a fool!
He lets Cage down and walks off. Lily Tsung and Shang Tsung glowers in fury, but Raiden nods his approval. Sektor watches his comrade leave with disdain on his face. The scene cuts to the two of them talking in the jungle.
SEKTOR: You were commanded to kill Johnny Cage. You disobeyed.
CYRAX: I eliminated him from the tournament. He didn't need to die.
SEKTOR: You have broken your oath.
CYRAX: I used my judgment!
SEKTOR: The Cyber Initiative will eliminate insubordination.
CYRAX: We're not machines, Sektor. I chose to serve the Lin Kuei. But I will not surrender my free will!
They fight. The fight between the two technologically advanced assassins is brutal and deadly, but in the end it is Cyrax who defeats Sektor.
CYRAX: Tell the Grand Master I am finished.
SEKTOR: No one leaves the Lin Kuei
Cyrax responds by kicking Sektor in the face, knocking him unconscious. He then walks off.
