Story[]
When Johnny Cage arrives at Jennifer Grey's mansion, he finds two women named Ashrah and Kia battling each other over a mysterious scroll. He ends up getting caught in their fight, and the three escape before Jennifer's house explodes from a planted bomb.
As Ashrah and Kia continue their fight on the highway, Cage hijacks a tour bus to pursue them, which kills Kia after Ashrah ejects her from her car. Cage manages to retrieve the scroll from Ashrah with Golden's help. The two find that it is a star map of Los Angeles with Greek text on the back. Meanwhile, Ashrah returns to the White Lotus Society to report to Lord Raiden, who encourages her to enlist Cage's help for the coming battles ahead.
Before Jataaka can take him further underground, the two are intercepted by Ashrah, who tells Cage that Jataaka and Kia were two of three assassins aligned with the Brotherhood of Shadows, a cult intent on summoning their god, Shinnok, to conquer Earthrealm. Cage and Ashrah are able to defeat Jataaka with the help of Golden, who informs them that the Brotherhood intends to use the spell on the scroll and the "blood of a god" below the Oriental Theatre to open a gate to the Netherrealm. Before they can destroy the scroll, they are attacked and captured by the third assassin, Jennifer.
Jennifer reveals to Cage that she is a demon named Sareena and was cut off from the Netherrealm before getting sent to Earthrealm decades ago. Upon finding out that Cage possessed the blood of the gods needed to open a portal to her home, she and other demons helped set up his film career and Ninja Mime so that he could eventually be used as a sacrifice to summon her master, Shinnok. Ashrah and Golden escape their captivity from the director, during which Golden finds out that Ashrah is a demon formerly affiliated with the Brotherhood now focused on repenting her sins and becoming human.
Ashrah and Golden manage to rescue Cage, but not before Sareena uses his blood to create the portal to the Netherrealm, bringing Shinnok to Earthrealm. Golden suggests that they get Shinnok back through the rift and then cast the spell from the scroll to trap him back in the Netherrealm. Cage fights Shinnok in the streets near the Oriental Theatre while Golden and Ashrah face off against Jones and Sareena, who unleash their true demonic forms. Golden manages to knock Jones back into the portal before giving Ashrah back her sword that she uses to kill Sareena. With his fans and onlookers cheering him on, Cage unleashes his mystical powers that allow him to fight on par with Shinnok and manages to knock the fallen Elder God back into the portal. Golden casts the spell to close the portal, cutting off access for Shinnok and the other demons of the Netherrealm. Cage is celebrated as a hero by the public and shares a kiss with Ashrah.
