History: (Mortal Kombat X #1) - Kenshi Takahashi went undercover to infiltrate the Red Dragons, but when his cover was blown he was forced to go into hiding. His old love Suchin called from Thailand to tell him they had a son, Takeda. He went to Thailand only to find Suchin murdered by the Red Dragons, but she'd sent away their son before the carnage started. Kenshi found Takeda in a nearby village, and told him his mother died in an accident, not wanting to tell him the truth because he feared his son would be blinded by vengeance. Hso Hao and his Red Dragon underlings pursued them into the Himalayas, and promised Kenshi a gruesome death for his betrayal. Kenshi had purposely wandered into the domain of Scorpion, who killed Hao by plunging his kunai blade into his artificial heart.
