Steve Fleming, while not as feared as Malcolm (mostly due to the fact that, unlike Tucker, he seldom swears), is nonetheless infamous throughout the party for his obsequious, unctuous personality (which is once described by Ollie Reeder as "Obsessive Repulsive Disorder"). He is shown to frequently lose his temper and lash out when faced with any opposition from his co-workers, implying he is mentally unbalanced. Tucker and Fleming harbour a mutual hatred, going back to when the former forced the latter to resign in 2003 (Tucker's diaries from The Missing DoSAC Files implies this hatred goes back even before then). Fleming exacts revenge on Tucker by forcing him to resign by informing the press before telling Malcolm; ironically the same way Tucker had forced Fleming to resign previously.

His ending is a near-duplicate of that in Deadly Alliance in that he exacts revenge on Shang Tsung by killing him with his sword. In Mortal Kombat X, Kenshi is part of a task force consisting of Earthrealm survivors Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade, with the assistance of their mentor, Raiden and fellow god, Fujin, leading Special Forces and Shaolin armies against Shinnok and Quan Chi's force during the Netherrealm War, personally defeating Nightwolf. In the following years, he discovers he has an illegitimate son named Takeda with his former lover, Suchin, but after she is killed by Red Dragon forces, Kenshi leaves Takeda in Hanzo Hasashi's care for training and protection while he goes to avenge Suchin's death. This strains the relationship between Takeda and Kenshi, but the two reconcile in a flashback during the main story, with Kenshi teaching Takeda how to use his telepathic abilities in the intervening years.

However, upon his re- instatement by key figures in the party (most notably Julius Nicholson), Tucker exacts revenge on Steve by forcing Nicholson to pass the full blame of a recent scandal to Fleming in his inquiry report, forcing him to resign from his position after less than a week. Stewart Pearson is equally, if not more unpleasant than his fellow spin doctors, but not nearly as feared by his party or his opponents. Devoid of morals or competence by comparison, he is a cool, calm man who doesn't usually raise his voice and hides his intellectual mediocrity behind a hip, pseudo-modern political jargon, filled with bizarre buzzwords that no one understands; Adam Kenyon complains that he "need[s] subtitles" in order to be understood. His petulant disposition, indifference for colleagues' and subordinates' opinions, his "touchy-feely" managing style and his entirely unjustified arrogance make his work-colleagues (and Whitehall as a whole) despise him.
