Shendu looked at Jackie with contempt and Hate in his eyes, "Well, Chan, it would
appear the metaphorical Cat is out of the bag..." He turned to Uncle, "Well, old man,
what do you intend to do?" he asked in a mocking tone.
Uncle grabed his blowfish and pointed it at the demons, "I will send you back to
the Demon Netherworld back where you belong, Demon!"
Shendu laughed mockingly, "My son Drago is the only one here who still posses
demon Chi, Old man. Your Binding spell saw to that! But that will soon be remedied!"
000000ooooo000000
Viper was completely confused. "Wait a minute. What exactly is going on here?"
Jamie turned to Viper just as Uncle was about to reply. " 4 months ago when I
was at the baseball game, I got locked inside when they were evacuating the city.
When I found my way out it was into the feild and I got sucked into the Demon
Netherworld by accident. And then they were gonna eat me, so I said I was a Chi-
witch and spent a month and a half getting ingrediants. And then I did a spell, and
the Old guy did a spell and they combined and They lost their powers and they've
been living with me for the past three months. And now they're sick of being human
and they're trying to get their Chi so they take over the world."
Jamie gasped for air after saying so many words in one breath.
000000ooooo000000
Jade took a fighting stance, "Demon or not, I'm gonna kick all you guy's butts!"
Jackie held her in place, "No you will not!"
"And neither will YOU!" Drago said. He lept upwards and swung his leg, sending
the Chans and Viper flying backwards into the hall just as Toruh finaly reached
the door from the long Trek upstairs. Drago grabbed Jamie as Shendu swung
his hand in an arc, a grayish smoke engulfing them.
Jackie and Jade rushed forward into the room as the smoke vanished.
"They're gone..."
Jamie coughed, the smoke filling her lungs. As the smoke cleared, Jamie noticed that
the scenery had changed. She was no longer in her apartment. In fact the place
she was now was much bigger than her apartment. Shendu cracked his neck, sighing
in an aggrivated manner, "Bah! I never thought I'd have to come HERE again..." he
growled. Jamie looked around, "Where are we?"
"This, child, is the Fish Cannery I was forced to resde in when I was traped in Valmonts
body when Trying to release my siblings before," Shendu said.
Bai Tsa looked around, "Ahh, yes, I remember, I was here before...What a pathetic lair."
"Why are we here, anyway?" Jamie asked.
"Well, obviously, because we can no longer remain in YOUR abode...Chan would try to
stop us."
Jamie's eyes buldged out, "Wait a minute...you're saying I have to leave my apartment
and move nto a FISH CANNERY?!" She shreiked in a high pitched voice. Hsi Wu covered
his ears, "Jeez, calm down would you? That's an irritating noise..."
Jamie glared at him, " NO I will NOT calm down! You jerks accualy expect me to move
into an abandoned building by the docks?"
Drago rolled his eyes, "Just be thankful you're not in the junk yard, J."
"But what about all my stuff? What about my furniture?" Her eyes widened, "What
about Scratcher and Killer?!"
Hsi Wu twitched at the name of his beloved pet. "We'll get them in the morning, right
now, let's focus on what's important..." Tchang Zu said, drawing everyones attention back
to the image of the globe with the Trigrams. The demons, and Jamie, despite herself,
leaned in. One of the trigrams was pulsing. Tso Lan reached out and touced the pulsing
mark. The globe turned bright blue and zoomed in on the mark.
"That's MY trigram..." Dai Gui said coming closer. The image shifted into a square, map-
like shape. It zoomed in closer and closer until it showed a specific area. "Where's that
suppose to be?"
Po Kong took a step forward, "If I recall my geography correctly, that would be New York
City...Central park."
"Looks like we'll be going a little road trip..."Xiao Fung said
"So it would appear..." Shendu agreed.
Jamie sighed and looked down at her feet. Could things get any worse?
000000ooooo000000
A buzzing sound came from Dai Gui's pocket. He reached in and pulled out his cell phone
"Hello?" he said. his eyes lit up, "Izzy. Yes....I am good. yes. yes. Oh... I come soon.
Bye." He hung up the phone.
"What did SHE want?" Bai Tsa said bitterly. Dai Gui narrowed his eyes slightly at her tone,
"Izzy has a broken ankle. Needs Dai Gui to stay with her."
"Ludicrous!" Tchang Zu said, Only YOU can retreive your Chi!"
"I know that!" Dai Gui snapped, "but Dai Gui cannot leave Izzy alone. Therefore, I have
made my decision."
"And what would that be?" Tso Lan asked.
"Izzy is coming with us."
