MORTAL KOMBAT 1 KHAOS ONE | NetherRealm STUDIOS | WARNER BROS. | PS5

Описание: In Mortal Kombat 1, the story of Cyrax vs. Sektor begins within the shadows of the Lin Kuei, the legendary clan of assassins. Under the leadership of Grandmaster, the Lin Kuei initiates the Cyber Initiative, a plan to convert their most skilled warriors into emotionless cybernetic soldiers to ensure loyalty and efficiency. Sektor, a ruthless and ambitious warrior, is the first to volunteer for the procedure, embracing the cold logic and power that comes with becoming a machine. Cyrax, on the other hand, is a proud Lin Kuei warrior who values honor and free will. Though loyal to the clan, he hesitates to surrender his humanity. This hesitation fuels a deep conflict with Sektor, who believes that emotion and hesitation are weaknesses that will doom the Lin Kuei.

Their confrontation escalates when Sektor, now a fully cybernetic warrior, is ordered to ensure Cyrax’s conversion—by force if necessary. In a tense encounter within the Lin Kuei stronghold, Sektor ambushes Cyrax, attempting to subdue him with overwhelming mechanical precision. Cyrax fights back fiercely, his skills as a human warrior pushing Sektor to his limits. The battle represents more than just strength; it is a clash of ideals—freedom against control, humanity against machinery. Despite Cyrax’s resistance, the encounter ends with Sektor subduing him, leading to Cyrax’s eventual capture and forced cybernetic transformation. The rivalry between the two becomes one of the most personal and tragic in the Mortal Kombat saga, symbolizing the cost of loyalty when free will is sacrificed to power.

The cold moonlight seeps into the Lin Kuei fortress, reflecting off the steel walls of the secret cybernetics chamber. Sparks crackle as machinery hums, and the scent of burning metal lingers in the air. Sektor emerges from the shadows, his red armor gleaming under the dim lights, mechanical eyes locking onto his target.

Sektor: “The Grandmaster has given the order, Cyrax. You will submit… or be dismantled.”

From the far side of the hall, Cyrax steps forward, his fists clenched. He still wears the traditional Lin Kuei armor, his human eyes filled with defiance.

Cyrax: “I will never surrender my soul to your machines. I am Lin Kuei, not a weapon.”

Without another word, Sektor lunges forward, jets igniting from his back, propelling him with lethal speed. A flurry of missiles streaks across the hall, but Cyrax rolls aside, the explosions lighting the room in flashes of orange. He counters with a net projectile, ensnaring Sektor briefly, then charges in with a powerful kick that sends the cybernetic warrior crashing against the steel wall.

The fight is brutal—human instinct versus cold precision. Sektor’s flamethrower scorches the ground as Cyrax leaps over him, landing a crushing blow to his back. But Sektor’s emotionless resolve never falters. He activates his chest cannon, blasting Cyrax across the hall. Staggered, Cyrax rises, only to be seized by Sektor’s mechanical grip around his throat.

Sektor: “Your hesitation makes you weak. The Lin Kuei will be perfected… without you.”

With a surge of electricity, Sektor subdues Cyrax, his body going limp as the machines of the Cyber Initiative close in. The last thing Cyrax sees before darkness claims him is Sektor’s glowing eyes and the hum of the conversion chamber. The birth of the cyber Lin Kuei has claimed another soul, and the rivalry between the two warriors is sealed in tragedy.

Darkness fades into the cold hum of machinery. Cyrax’s eyes snap open, now glowing with a faint yellow light. His body feels heavier, movements precise yet unnatural. He looks at his own metallic hands, a flash of memory showing Sektor’s betrayal and the suffocating grip that dragged him into this fate. His voice is no longer fully human—distorted, mechanical.

Cyrax: “…What… have you done to me?”

From the shadows of the Lin Kuei cybernetics lab, Sektor steps forward, his armor reflecting the eerie lights of the control panels.

Sektor: “I have freed you from weakness. You are now perfection. A true Lin Kuei.”

But within Cyrax, fragments of humanity still flicker. He remembers his honor, his loyalty—not to machines, but to the Lin Kuei code. Rage begins to override his programming. With a sudden burst of strength, Cyrax breaks free from the restraints of the lab. The floor trembles as the two cybernetic warriors face off—machine against machine, but only one with a soul still fighting inside.

The battle erupts with mechanized fury. Cyrax launches his signature net, now enhanced with electric currents, snaring Sektor and pulling him into a devastating knee strike. Sektor counters with a teleport uppercut, followed by a barrage of rockets that light up the dark chamber. Sparks fly as metal clashes with metal, each strike echoing through the fortress.

At the height of the fight, Cyrax overpowers Sektor, slamming him against the very conversion chamber that stole his humanity. He raises his arm cannon, ready to end it.
