Shao Kahn: Sindel, is something wrong?
Sindel: No, it's nothing. I want him*points to Mark* to go first.
Shao Kahn: Good choice. The one with the sliver hair, step fourth!
Mark: I think he's talking about me.
Jax: Yep. Good luck out there.
Mark: Heh, I've been through worst.*walking to the middle of the arena seeing many crowds cheering* Hehehe. Alright, who's my opponent?
Shao Kahn: Eager aren't you? Your opponent, is Baraka!

Baraka:*snarls* You dare mock me human!?
Mark: Mock you? Maybe.
Shang Tsung:*appears in the middle* Are you ready?*sees them preparing to fight* Fight!
Baraka roars as he charges at Mark but he easily dodged his blades at ease.

Mark:*looks down at Baraka who was glaring while in an injured state as he prepared to finish him off* Raah!*hits the ground close to Baraka's face making everyone in shocked as he moves back* Nah, he's not worth a killing.*deactivate his devil arms* Besides, he has a clan and his race is just like him.*turns away and walking away*
Baraka: Wait!*sees him stop as he gets up* Why did you spare me? Aren't you human?
Mark: Heh, you maybe right. But there's something that you need to know who I am.*looking back at Baraka* I'm a Sparda.
Baraka:*eyes widen in shocked* Sparda!?
Raiden:*eyes widened* It can't be...!
Sindel:*eyes widened in shocked and disbelief* A Sparda...!?
Shao Kahn: Impossible! Raiden has recruited a warrior that slayed the ruler of demons!?

Shiranui: Amazing darling.
Blackfire: Way to kick his ass.
Raven: Mark, why did you spare him?

Shiranui: I'm so happy I'm married to you.*kiss him as he kiss back*
