Nightwolf: Cool, huh? It's my Animality.
Shao Kahn: You should have killed me... when you had the chance... brother.
Rayden: My brother died a long time ago. His heart, anyway.
Jax: If your Father's an Elder God, what does that make Kahn?
Lord Rayden: Kahn is my brother.
Sonya Blade: There's so little time left.
Kitana: Whatever time we have, we must use well.
Jax: Are we really ready to die here?
Liu Kang: If we die, we will die in battle. Together.
Kitana: Mother! You're alive.
Sindel: Too bad you... will DIE.
