The last seconds of my life passed like hours. Hanzo (to Takeda): is my curse, a burden I've carried since the day everything changed.

It's real sad and a dick move on Quan Chi's part, to see a guy like Scorpion so hurt and being used like that after his loss. Eventually he learns to master it and became the specter that we all know and love. Scorpion is crying over the sadness of losing his family and clan and it becomes the source of his powers. Here we get to see him calling out to them half-dazed before Quan Chi comes along to manipulate his feelings into controlling hellfire as it can't burn him. Most of the time in MK you just see him as an "angry guy killing people just cuz he lost his family and clan" and not the pain and anguish he felt losing them. Scorpion's time in the Netherrealm after he just died.The viewer is watching this almost literally right after having seen Quan Chi finaly get killed by Hanzo (or was it actually his Scorpion persona) out of revenge. He also mentions that as long as Quan Chi is alive he can bring them back like he did Hanzo, Jax, and Kuai Liang. As mentioned over on the heartwarming section, Raiden sorrowfully expresses his regret over losing several of the Forces of Good's souls to the Netherrealm (including Kung Lao and Liu Kang whom he refers to as similar to sons to him).She was not the queen of Edenia, but a revenant of Hell. Kitana awoke from this vision to find herself in the Netherrealm. Unlike some of the other characters which are revenants in the service of Quan Chi and later Shinnok, Jade is nowhere to be found. Kitana has a variation called 'Mournful' that utilizes the equipment formerly used by her long-deceased best friend.From a Certain Point of View though, Torr, Jax and Ermac all die in their Arcade Mode endings, fulfilling the "eight characters die" tweet. It seems that this either turned into a case of Trolling Creator or more characters where planned to die orignally but it was changed during development.Sektor may count, as Sub-Zero keeps him in pieces to access his memories. You know what that means, don't you? Of those eight characters confirmed so far is Baraka, possibly Bo Rai Cho, Mileena, and Quan Chi. One of the developers had stated in a tweet that eight characters are going to die during the events of the game.

Later, he has to fight two more of his old friends, Smoke and Jax, and express sorrow doing so.Johnny: I liked it better when we fought on the same side.
