Sareena is the secondary antagonist of the animated film Mortal Kombat Legends: Cage Match. Based on the character of the same name from the Mortal Kombat games, she is a demonic warrior from the Netherrealm who leads a sect of the Brotherhood of Shadow in Earthrealm. Taking on the identity of human actress Jennifer Grey (who is voiced by the real Jennifer Grey), Sareena enacts a plot to summon the fallen Elder God Shinnok so that he may bring about Earth's destruction.
History[]
Initially due to star in the movie Ninja Mime, Jennifer mysteriously goes missing. Her co-star Johnny Cage goes looking for her, but finds himself narrowly escaping the bombing of her house and chasing after two women, Ashrah and Kia, who are fighting over a scroll. After Kia is killed in a high-speed chase, Johnny takes the scroll, but soon finds himself being pursued by others who want it.
After learning that the scroll is in Johnny's possession, Jennifer sends Jataaka to retrieve it. Jataaka confronts Johnny and Ashrah out by Hollywood's NOHO sign, but is killed in battle. However, Jennifer then arrives via helicopter, attacking with a rocket launcher. Johnny, Ashrah and Chuck Golden are rendered unconscious and captured.
When Johnny wakes up, Jennifer - who tells Johnny to refer to her as Sareena - tells him how he has "special" blood that is key to releasing Shinnok from the Netherrealm. Once Johnny is prepared for the ritual, Sareena takes him to the central chamber of the Brotherhood's temple where he is to be sacrificed. The ritual is interrupted when Ashrah and Chuck intervene, but enough of Johnny's blood has been spilled in order to open the portal between Earth and the Netherrealm. Thus, Shinnok emerges and heads aboveground to begin his conquest, but Johnny follows him up, leaving Ashrah to deal with Sareena and the remaining cultists.
Death[]
Ashrah grabs Datusha, the holy kriss Sareena had used in the ritual, and fights off Sareena's minions before battling Sareena herself. Sareena mocks Ashrah for maintaining a human form while expressing pride in her own, transforming into her true demonic form. In her giant demon form, Sareena grabs her former sister, but Ashrah is able to plunge Datusha's blade into her chest. The holy magic within the kriss causes Sareena great pain before causing her to turn inside out and implode into nothingness.
