Since they're no longer fighting for the evil side necessarily, they should be doing their typical Lin Kuei stuff: battling other clans and hunting fleeing members, such as Sub-Zero, to turn them into cyborgs as well. Unless one of the villains recruits them or the whole Lin Kuei. Then they would be evil guys again.

Though Boon has hinted that Cyrax won't be in MK X (only heard of it in this thread, didn't read it myself), I still believe it would be more probable for Cyrax to be in than Sektor, because he's the one with the more interesting story. He's the one with a stronger free will and more eager to regain his humanity, which always gives him better roles in the games he appears and makes him more developed character wise.

Maybe Sektor's free will, if he still has any, in focused in ascending among his clan's chain of command, and not in regaining humanity, which would explain why all he does is following orders from his Lin Kuei superiors - which almost always involve eliminating or capturing targets - or trying to become the new Grandmaster by force (though rarely). You see that even in his human form in MK 9 he only speaks of stuff like that. He'll never stop being a killing machine for the Lin Kuei because he doesn't want to, unlike Cyrax. So in MK3 he's hunting Sub-Zero, in MK Gold he's still hunting Sub-Zero but also keeping an eye out for Cyrax, in Armageddon he's hunting Taven and in MK 9 he's once again hunting Smoke and Sub-Zero. What could be done about him is obvious: make him do something other than hunting people. His superiors could be telling him to do something like searching for an artifact or leading an army in a war. At least that could make his roles more interesting. That remidns me, could someone post the tweet or whatever where Boon deconfirmed Cyrax? Was curious about that for awhile.

As for Sektor, even if he became grandmaster of the Lin Kuei again by killing his father (like his ending suggested), Sub-Zero prolly kicked his ass and became leader again like in the original timeline. MKX Sub-Zero has a variation called Grandmaster after all. So, maybe Sektor will form the Tekunin again (the squad he used against Taven in Armageddon konquest).
