Normal POV
Madeline Melee is an 18-year-old girl with long curly brown hair, hazel eyes, average build, and around 5'6". Her dad, or some people called him, Master Lep stopped teaching at the Phai Zhaq Academy when she was born. He died in a car accident when she was four. Her mom Fiona or Master Snowy told her that once she graduated from high school, she wanted her to move to Ocean Bluff to get a new start on life. Madeline thought that her mom didn't want her to move away because she was her only child. She also knew that the house would become emptier when she moved away.
Madeline is walking around town in a pink tank top and a pair of blue jean shorts. She gets a phone call from the manager of the apartment complex where she is planning on staying. The manager tells Madeline that her application arrived two days too late and they gave her apartment to someone else.
Man can things possibly get any worse.
Things do get worse, though. She is starving, not to mention exhausted, from walking around the city since she got off the plane. She takes her wallet and opens it to find she only has $2.45 left. She knows that she can't get a decent meal with that small amount of money, so she decides to keep walking around the park. She then finds an empty pavilion, and walks inside, sets her things down and feels the coolness on her bare legs as she sits down; it feels so refreshing to her tired legs. A few seconds later she slowly closes her eyes.
~Graceful as a Leopard~
Master Finn is walking back to Jungle Karma Pizza with his son RJ. They decide to take a shortcut through the park. About halfway through they see three young teenage boys beating up Madeline. The first boy is Hugh. He's just below average height, has very short, straight, dark brown hair and pale brown eyes The second boy is Erick. He's tall, has long, light brown hair and dark green eyes. The third boy is Fredrick. He's below average height, has very long, straight, pale red hair and dark blue eyes.
"I recognize those boys,"
"Who are they?"
"They're Hugh, Erick, and Fredrick. I heard they got expelled from Phai Zhuq a few days ago."
They can tell that Madeline wasn't looking for any trouble, but the boys don't care as they continue to use their kung fu to hurt the poor girl. The masters can't stand by and watch this anymore. They rush over to help her. When they arrive, Hugh and Erick call for their hawk and eagle animal spirits. Hugh's hawk spirit slashes her face. Erick's eagle animal spirit pecks her right knee she drops to the ground in severe pain. Fredrick then calls for his Falcon spirit. It flies in, grabs her necklace, and rips it off her neck. It flies back over to him, and it disappears.
"No, my dad gave that to me. Now give it back to me." Madeline yells.
"Sorry I can't do that," Fredrick says.
Madeline growls and a magenta color of light surrounds her and then her Snow Leopard animal spirit appears and frees her from the hawk and eagle spirits. She gets to her feet and it disappears and goes over to Fredrick.
"Give me back my necklace now!" She orders.
Fredrick refuses, grabs her wrist and drags her towards the trees. He slams her shoulder hard against it, and she screams out in pain as her shoulder hits the tree. Her right knee hurts so bad as she tries to stand up, that she falls to the ground. The bully lets go of her wrist, and she looks at him. He bends down and makes a fist. He's about to punch Madeline in the face, but Master Finn runs over to her. RJ then rushes over. Master Finn uses his hand to block the punch before it lands.
"Enough Fredrick," Master Finn says.
He pulls Fredrick away, and RJ walks over to Madeline, he bends down in front of her. "Madeline, are you all right?"
"Yes, I'm fine. Thanks for your help Uncle RJ," She says.
Madeline tries to get back on her feet, but RJ notices a big bruise starting to form on her shoulder and blood coming from her right knee. The injury makes it tough for her to put any of her body weight on it, so she quickly drops back down to the ground. She has a few cuts on her face and a small scrape on her left knee.
"Take it easy, Madz, my dad and I are going to help you," He says.
"Thank you again Uncle RJ, just please get my necklace back," She says in a barely audible tone.
RJ can tell that she's beyond exhausted and a few seconds later she loses consciousness. Master Finn comes back with Madeline's necklace in his hand.
"We should bring her back to the loft," Master Finn says.
RJ nods and gently picks her up, so that didn't make any of her injuries worse than what they already were.
"Dad, I need some cloth. Her right knee is pretty bad. We have to take her to a hospital," RJ says.
"Let's go. I'll contact Casey and the others," Master Finn says.
They head to the hospital where one of the nurses sees Madeline.
"I need a gurney - stat," The nurse says.
"Fiona, is that you?" RJ asks.
"Yes RJ it is. Look, I just volunteer here. What happened to Madeline?" Fiona asks.
"She was attacked by three students who were expelled Phai Zhaq academy." RJ whispers.
"I'll head to the loft, and I'll fill Casey and the others in on the current situation." Master Finn says.
"Alright be careful going back," RJ says.
When Madeline is wheeled off for x-rays and cat scans Casey, Theo and Lilly arrive with Master Finn.
"RJ what's going on?" Casey says.
'Master Snowy's daughter was attacked. I don't know why those three expelled Phai Zhaq boys would attack her in broad daylight," RJ says.
"I agree, that makes no sense. Master Snowy, can you tell us about your family please?" Master Finn says.
"When Madeline turned five, we found out that she inherited her father's leopard animal spirit and my good senses of hearing. The day of Madeline's baptism, Master Lep and I decided to make RJ the godfather. I'm glad that we chose RJ. I better get back to work." Fiona says.
