Deacon City Police Captain Jackson Briggs informs assassin Hanzo Hasashi about the criminals Reptile and Baraka; the latter has recently killed actor-turned-undercover-officer Johnny Cage in a fight. Briggs believes they were both working for a man named Shang Tsung. This short film was made by the director to sell Warner Bros. on his vision for a re-imagined Mortal Kombat film. After positive response to the film, the pitch eventually evolved into the web series Mortal Kombat: Legacy.

Cuando la teniente Sonya Blade llama en un informe que ha rastreado a Kano, "Jax" Briggs convence a su superior, Kurtis Stryker, para que atrape a un escuadrón de hombres, solo para descubrir que es una trampa.

Mientras Jax y Kano luchan hasta la muerte, Sonya logra escapar de sus ataduras. Sin embargo, Jax se ve obligada a protegerla de una explosión, hiriendo a ambos.
