"Stay out of harms way"

Sekrax / mk9

One of my favorite scenes from Mortal Kombat 9 It's when Cyrax accuses Shang Tsung of sending his henchmen to kill him.

This is because it clarifies the relationship between Cyrax and Sektor.

All of this before their fight.

We see their dynamic as a pair; Sektor always advocated for him because he trusted Cyrax, and vice versa.

Why didn't he hesitate to tell him this in front of Shang Stung?

In other words, Cyrax knew Sektor would be on his side, although the sorcerer had a point when he brought up Raiden. Had he not mentioned it, the Lin Kuei agreement would have ended there. Even so, Sektor became defensive of Cyrax.

“We obey the grandmaster's commands, Cyrax.”

“Cyrax is Lin Kuei. He will complete his task.”

However, he never wanted Cyrax to feel bad about his way of thinking; he could have said something to him for questioning his father. In fact, he should have, because Cyrax was questioning the Grandmaster, but Sektor didn't do it directly; he only quoted a speech that Cyrax probably already knew by heart. Deep down, we know that Sektor hated his father, that certain things about the clan bothered him. Sektor was going through a true existential crisis: he disagreed with Cyrax, but at the same time, he agreed with him. It's just that he could never have a moral guide because he knew nothing beyond being a Lin Kuei... In the end, Sektor rebelled against the Lin Kuei, not for good reasons. But it was something that the frustration of his submission provoked, and over time, he came to hate himself for it.

Because everyone thinks he ruined the clan in his attempt to improve it, but perhaps that was always Sektor's true intention. He hated the Lin Kuei as much as his father. And the only thing he liked about the clan was Cyrax. So much so that he wouldn't let him leave.
