The Puppet Master

Chapter One - Bad Day

Daolong Wong was chanting in the temple he had sought for so long, the Pupper Master's Resting Place, according to Wong's studies, he who awakens the great Puppet Master shall be awarded knowledge of magic far beyond the understanding of the chi wizards, and that it could be used dark, or light.

But his joy ended as he heard a loud smash, and out from a broken wall came Tohru, Jackie, Uncle and a 17 year old Jade, Tohruand Uncle immediately began to chant with their chi ingredients in hand, Jackie and Jade rushed at Wong, who simply lowered his hands and laughed, saying "You are too late Chans, the Puppet Master AWAKENS!"

He was too correct, as the statue of a man holding a puppet exploded into a cloud of smoke to reveal an Egyptian Sarcophagus, which opened to reveal a 17 year old boy, in modern US clothing, asleep.

Wong stared in disbelief, and realized the hard way that he had let Jackie and Jade get too close, their combined kicks sent him flying at the feet of the boy, who woke up and said to Wong "He who freed me, becomes endowed with knowledge of the ancient arts of Ninjustu, Taijusu and Genjustu."

Wong got up and laughed wickidly, saying "Its over cha-"

Before he could finish, he felt as he could not move, then slowly turned his head with all his might, to see blue lines from the fingers of the boy, who said "By Becoming, my ninth collection."

A green light surrounded a screaming Wong as he turned into a scroll written in Kanji, which the boy grabbed and made various handsigns, causing it to sink into his air force jacket.

Uncle shouted "Ai Yah! Jackie, Jade, keep Puppet Master at bay while we cast the spells!"

The Boy jumped down behind Jackie and Jade with inhuman speed, and simply leg sweeped them to the ground, then got up to say "Normally Puppeteers have little Taijustuskills, but in my case, I have mastered all three arts with perfection, but hold your spells please, I am where I belong now, July 7th, 2010, which is exactly one day after I was flung to ancient times..."

Uncle shouted "Dark Puppeteer no fool Uncle, get ready for a whooping!"

The boy simply dodged Jade's leap and kick without paying notice and said "With what? Chi spells? No Chakra? Please, I've killed people far greater then Chi-only Wizards, you do not deserve to become my tenth collection"

Without warning the boy was sent flying back into his resting place with the Dragon Talisman, the boy rubbed his head for a bit and sighed saying "Sendu'stalismans? well it seems you can now perform Grand Fireball withlesser extent, let me show you how its done!" With this said the boy jumped foward making handsigns at a fast pace, then shouted "Fire Release:Grand Fireball Technique"

A ball of fire large enough to overtake the entire room roared towards Jade, a small green barrier reacted but was easily crushed by the head, the flame exploded, destroying the entire building revealing the jungles of the Amazon, the boy cracked his neck back and forth then said "I wont kill pathetic imbeciles like you peop- hmmm!" he pauses for a second then stares at Jade for a while, who then says "Uh, creepy stare much?"

The Boy then shouted "Shadowkhan queen, FACE MY WRATH!" Jade jumped out of the way of several shuriken and saw the boy bring out a scroll and opened it, causing Wong to appear again, but before he could speak, his body fell to the boy's justu, he then said "Tell me your name so that when I finally am free of this I can properly kill you!"

The Boy laughed and said "You cannot turn against me, you are too slow, but very well, my name is Ray Zenji, the missing tourist in these parts, but then again, its only been one day, technically, so-" as Ray jumped back to avoid Jackie's kick so did Wong jump back, Jackie recovered from the failed kick to hear Uncle shout "Jackie! Dark Puppetmaster can control people with his magic, Daolong Wong now forced to fight for him!"

Ray gave a sarcastic smirk and said "Magic? seriously, you believe this is MAGIC!"

He lets out a guffaw and Wong grows frustrated shouting "Shut up, aren't you supposed to be a great Dark Puppeteer, master of ancient magical arts of Ninjustu, Genjustu and Taijustu?"

Ray began to laugh again, then said "Every human has a chakra circulatory network, even some animals do, any dimwit can perform Ninjustu and Genjustu, and Taijustu is simply a Combat Art, a means for Hand to Hand battle."

Losing his concentration he failed to notice Jade had survived his Katon Justu without a single wound, and the massive kick hitting his face sent him flying into the jungle.

After five minutes he was slowly walking out, Wong had ran away and Uncle had run out of ingredients.

Ray then said "Dragon, Ox, Dog and Horse, safe to assume you have all twelve, I'd love to go serious but you're quite the looker, and you seem worthy enough for my next collection, but for now I must depart, It appears the man who freed me is an imbecile unworthy of my knowledge, I must return to the modern world, but before I leave, tell me your names.."

Jade shouted "Jade Chan, master of the ancient art of Butt Whoop."

Jackie simply said "Jackie Chan"

Uncle and Tohru revealed their names and Ray shouted "Jackie Chan? the archaeologist or the actor?"

Jackie then said "Archaeologist..."

Ray then said "Hmmm, perhaps you are worthy as well as an opponent, very well then study well Jackie and Jade, you will need the Taijustu fury of Maito Guy to face me, but please don't act like like him, he's very annoying and mood breaking."

Ray waves bye as he swirls out of existence, disappearing from the smoldering Aztec ruins, Jade then says "Did we just get our butts kicked?"
