When we last saw Jade Chan, Micky McStone, and the rest of the Section 13 crew, they had split up into nine groups and traveled across the world to face each of the Oni generals and to retrieve the stolen elemental amulets. In order to defeat Tarakudo and his generals, it is essential to have all eight amulets combined with all the demons within the same range, activated at the same time by the eight humans chosen to represent the good side of the elements. Or else, evil and darkness will reign on the earth forevermore.
Cassie and Strikemaster Ice were the first to arrive at their destination in the eastern United States. Uncle was able to find a spell that revealed the capital city for each of the Oni empires, which for the eastern United States and Canada was New York City.
"Yo here we are" Ice said as they parked and folded up their briefcase airplane outside the city.
"Man the city doesn't look as awesome when nobody's here" Cassie replied. "Wonder where we're gonna hide out at so we're not seen!"
"We should look around, yo, and see what we can find" Ice said, "Can't risk the shadow dudes findin' us till we figure out a game plan to get back the sky amulet."
The duo scoped out the city for a while until they found a vacant building with a basement just outside the city.
"This will work!" Cassie exclaimed as they unpacked their rations kit and rolled out some blankets and pillows to sleep on. "Guess this is home sweet home until who knows when. Man I'm beat, I think we should get some shut eye." she added as she lay down.
"Yeah I'm with ya" Ice replied as he lay down next to her and pulled her close. "Yo you think we can swing kickin' a ton of butt on our own?"
"Chyeah man! We both got mad skills and smart brains, and you know that two people together are better than one" Cassie said as she yawned. "As long as I'm with you, I don't think anything can go wrong."
"I'm with you there! I just can't help but be a little worried though, ya know?" Ice replied.
"Yeah I feel you, I'm scared to death but we gotta save the world again, and we gotta be confident in ourselves! No way I'm livin' under the rule of some goofy-lookin' Halloween dudes" Cassie stated. "Were you nervous when you were fighting Drago for the demon powers?"
"A little bit but I wasn't gonna show that to D-Man and the crew" Ice replied, "Rebellin' against him took some serious guts. When we was fightin' Drago for the demon chi and he eventually got 'em, I thought fo shizzle that we was over with. But since I'm on the good side now and D-Man is no more, I feel more confident since the good guys always win in the end, yo."
"That's true! They didn't make it like that in the comic books for nothin'. We best get to sleep now if we wanna have the energy to kick some booty" Cassie said.
"A'ight, good night sweet thang, I love you" Ice said as he kissed her cheek.
"I love you too, babe" Cassie replied as the two shared a passionate goodnight kiss.
Kaysha and DJ Fist arrived at their destination in South America. The Oni general's capital was outside the vast Amazon Forest. Kaysha had gotten from Uncle the spell for finding the earth element amulet. She and her husband were walking through the depths of the Amazon with the candlestick and special goggles that allowed them to see in the dark better, as the spell revealed that the amulet was hidden within a cave deep within the forest.
"I don't know about this" Kaysha said nervously as she looked around at the vastly tall trees, vines, and nocturnal animals roaming around quietly.
"It's okay babe, I'm here to protect you and our baby, plus we gotta get this thing so that we don't live in the dark forever" DJ assured her, taking one of her hands into his as they walked around.
As they tread through the forest, determined to get the amulet before going to sleep for the night, they heard rustles in the bushes beside them.
"Babe, what was that?" Kaysha asked fearfully.
"Oh probably some small animal, we're gonna be okay hon. Let's keep goin'" DJ answered.
As they continued walking, the rustles they heard turned into a large black panther jumping out in front of them, its eyes evilly green and its teeth sharp and ready to kill prey.
"DJ!" Kaysha whispered in fright as she shrank back and held onto her husband's arm tightly as the panther locked its eyes on them.
DJ Fist gulped. "Man this ain't what I wanna deal with" he thought nervously.
At the same time this was happening, Lydia and Valmont arrived in western Europe, specifically in London where the green faced Oni general had made the city his capital.
"The city's definitely not too lively with everyone in hiding" Lydia said as she observed the empty streets of the British city.
"Indeed" Valmont replied, "Tell me darling, how do you think we can possibly defeat this Oni general?"
"Well Cassie gave me this little trinket before we left since this general didn't get an amulet" Lydia said as she held out the mountain element amulet, "We need to get all the generals within the same distance in order to banish them, so I figured we could use this as a lure to get the general to chase us to Japan where Ikazuki and Tarakudo are!"
"Brilliant plan, darling! Though it could be quite dangerous" Valmont replied.
"Well at this point, I'd rather take a few risks than live in an Oni world" Lydia stated. "So, where should we hide out at? We need to plot our strategy perfectly before striking."
"Umm I think we'll have to improvise that thought" Valmont said as a group of sumo Shadowkhan, who were randomly roaming the streets, noticed and approached them, ready to fight.
"Blast!" Lydia exclaimed. "I'm a bit too jet lagged to fight right now!"
Back in Japan, Ikazuki was on top of one of Tokyo's highest buildings, observing his empire.
"How does everything look, Ikazuki?" Tarakudo asked as he approached him.
"Completely dark with shadows, which is exactly how it should be!" Ikazuki replied happily. "And I sense no interference from our enemies!"
"Excellent. As Lord of Oni and King of the Shadowkhan, I am pleased to have such reliable generals to help keep my global empire under control. Soon the entire planet's greenery will diminish and life will be suffocated without the light of the sun. And this planet will become an empire more to our liking, and these humans will have no hope of ruling this earth ever again." Tarakudo exclaimed with an evil grin.
"And we don't have to worry about competing against other demons, such as Shendu and his siblings, since they are locked in the void!" Ikazuki added.
"Even better" Tarakudo replied darkly, "At last, the world is ours and ours alone!"
