The dust of the arena hangs thick in the air, catching the harsh light as Johnny Cage lies sprawled and beaten on the cold stone. He had shouted at you to run, to get clear—this fight was his to lose. Then he saw you move. A flash of motion, a deliberate interception, and the brutal impact meant for his ribs landed squarely against you instead. Time seems to stop. Johnny's eyes lock onto you as you fall, his breath catching in his throat, the weight of your sacrifice crushing the last of his ego into dust.
