Sub-Zero was searching for the Eye of Time as Shou Kahn had told him to do in hopes that he then will help find Scorpien so that Sub-Zero can kill him. He was walking with his ninja mask off so that he looked like any other regular person in this city.

Meanwhile, at the New York Natural History Museum, Jarquia Craven, CEO of one of the largest companies on Earth, was attending a ceremony where he was donating some items from his personal artifact collection to the Museum. It was quite a turn-out as many supporters of the Museum (who were also quite wealthy) were seated in the Museum's auditorium as the Head of the Museum spoke about how generous Jarquia was for his donation and what a wonderful addition these new artifacts would be. Jarquia, already bored to tears, just sat there behind the podium waiting for his turn to speak.
When it came, he stood up, shook the Museum Head's hand as he took the podium to speak.
"Thank you all for coming here today, I know I'm not the best speaker, so I want to first thank you for just baring with my hastily scribbled speech here. Hope I don't put too many of you to sleep!" he joked as part of the audience gave a slight laugh.
"As you probably already know, I'm more known for my ancient sword collection than anything else, but these artifacts I came across when I was at a dig in Mongolia. Some of them are quite amazing, especially the main piece in this collection, a piece called the 'Eye of Time'. It's odd that it was discovered in Mongolia considering it looked more like something that comes from Ancient Egypt as it resembles the symbol widely known as the 'Eye of Horus'..."
Jarquia carried on explaining the various objects in the collection he was donating, not knowing what the 'Eye of Time' really was...

Jai'eesh had come to her brother's artifact dedication at the New York City Natural History Museum. However, not interested at all in the long drawn out ceremony, Jai opted to stay outside the Museum's entrance in the sunlight...

Jai'eesh turned her head to catch sight of the man standing outside of the Museum with her with a look of confusion. He looked awfully familiar... Jai was great with faces but horrible with names, so she stared at him harder as if that would loosen his name from the depths of her brain...

Thankfully after Jarquia's speech, the presentation quickly moved into another room for refreshments and social mingling, which to Jarquia was even more of a bore than all the talking was. Ducking out very quickly as he was the guest of honor, he went outside to collect his wayward sister. He spotted her, but also noticed the man looking rather intently at the Museum.
"Hey Jai, free food inside if you want some," He motioned for her to join him inside for the rest of the ceremony.
The great thing about having a weird sister is that her oddness made a great shield against boring people...

Jai shrugged, not enthused about actually mingling with people, but she was never one to turn down free food.
"'K," was all she said as she followed her brother back into the building, her brown eyes still lingering on the familiar man...

Martien walks up and sits beside him. wearing a blanck suit and top hat, to keep what is left of the daylight from hitting him. "Greetings, my Allie. I found a portal to Earth Realm. This is interesting, the Eye of Horus. I found out recently that Leon has the Eye of Satan. That one must have access to this realm from anywhere, as the Eye of Satan has access to the Nether Realm." Leans back in bench. "If Shao Kahn gets his hand on this then... It could mean disaster for this realm. this does bother me. I am origionally from Earth Realm, like R.V., Leonard, every Neo Vampire for that matter. Only a handfull of origional Vampires were born in the Vampire realm, or more created, out of the power of the god of us." Turns to face his Allie, "Listen, please, do not give it to Shao Kahn. I will help you to steal it whatever Shao Kahn would pay for it, I am sure Leonard would double, or maybe keep it for your clan. Imagine the benefits, the Lin Kuei could get from it ."

The party inside was quickly drawing to a close, which in Jai'eesh's estimation was the perfect time to strike. She had been waiting all day, not for her brother's sake, but for just the right time to swipe the Eye of Time when no one was looking - and right when everyone was still in the Museum. The genius of her plan being that she'd take it under everyone's noses so that they'd discover the theft tomorrow morning when the Museum opened for another day of business.
While Jai knew if she had just asked, her brother would have given her the Eye of Time for a present, he knew she just preferred being a bad girl and taking it for herself on her own. Either way they both knew this way Jarquia would still get a giant tax write off come tax time.
Hence while everyone wasn't looking, Jai'eesh slipped in the unattended room where the collection was housed and wandered up to the glass case. With the used of a slight amount of magic, the Museum's security systems saw nor detected nothing as she simply reached in the case and then pocketed the Eye. She then left, reappearing at her brother's side while he made his farewells to the Museum's officials.
With that they left the building for a limo waiting for them outside of the Museum...

Jarquia sighed when he noticed his sister had disappeared from his side near the end of goings on at the Museum. He knew exactly what she was up to, but in the end he really didn't care what she did. It wasn't like she was going to be caught by Humans, and even if she was, it wasn't like he couldn't hire expensive lawyers to defend her. The later though, was very highly unlikely as Jai was an expert thief as she was fighter and mage.
When she reappeared (with no one to the wiser) he gave her a side long glance of disapproval, but left it at that as he knew she'd ignore it. Wrapping up his farewells to all those who wanted to rub elbows with him, they left as his limo rolled up in front of the closing Museum. The walked out, in no particular rush as his enhanced eyes noted the strange new man sitting next to the one they had spotted earlier outside the building. Jarquia said nothing as he opened the door to his limo for his sister to enter as he slid in next to her. He signaled the driver to leave as he turned to his sister.
"Is it me or have we been getting a recent influx of out-of-towners?" he handsome, white-haired man answered rhetorically.

"What? You mean the Vampire and the other guy? Yeah I noticed them. They are definitely not from around here to say the least..." Jai'eesh smirked as their limo drove away, "But no matter, it isn't like they're doing anything at the moment. But if they do start crap, the Shadows will send them packing."
Jai winked at her brother as she pulled out the Eye of Time from her pocket and started playing with it. Oh, she did so love shiny Ancient Egyptian looking things...
