Ch. 7: Holly's New Power
Carlton was on his cell phone with another client.
"Rest assured, Sir," he said, "This fight is the biggest, must-see event of the century: The infamous J-Teens vs. my Power Hounds."
He turned to where the arena is and gasped when he saw the doors opened and the J-Teens gone.
"Looks like you'll get an early show!" he said as he hung up.
He runs up to the red button on the wall and pushes it, sounding the alarm and releasing the ogre dogs from the cages. Alarms go off all over the place as the J-Teens ran from the arena. Cody looks over his shoulder and sees the ogre dogs chasing after them.
"Move it or lose it, Teens!" he said, "Carlton released the hounds!"
Before they can make it to the nearest exit, the doors automatically closed for lockdown. The J-Teens find themselves cornered by the ogre dogs. Carlton suddenly talks to them through the speakers.
"I told my customers I was gonna give them a show, J-Teens, and I'm gonna deliver the goods," he chuckled arrogantly.
Holly looked at the Monkey Talisman for a moment and thought about what kind of powers the Monkey Talisman has. She touches the symbol again and began to change. She turned into a creature with a human face, black fur, sharp claws, and cat ears. The J-Teens were flabbergasted to see her new form.
"What type of form is that?" Colleen asked.
"I don't know, Colleen," Drago informed, "but I think the Monkey Talisman gave Holly a half-human form."
"It looks like we gotta take these dogs down, Dudes," Ice said, "Let's teach these old dogs some new tricks!"
Colleen got out her water bottle, opened it, and made the water come out to form a whip. She used it to try and tame the dogs the way lion tamers do.
"Back! Back!" she yelled as she whipped the dogs.
However, the dog swiped the water whip, making it breakdown. Suddenly, Holly jumped up superfast and scratched the dog with her razor-sharp claws. The huge dog howled in pain as it backed away. The other dogs got angry about this and charged at her. Holly dodged them at super-speed as they tried to bite and paw her. Colleen and the others were surprised and impressed by this.
"Colleen, your kitty's got mad skills," Ice complimented.
Holly delivered the final blow by swipe kicking the dogs hard enough to make them unconscious. Colleen ran up to her and high-fived her.
"Great going, Holly," she complimented.
"Where did your pet learn to fight?" Hsi Wu asked.
"She and I watch a lot of kung fu and anime shows, and Holly learned to imitate a few moves," Colleen explained.
"What can I say? I'm a fast learner," Holly said.
"The Monkey Talisman must have enhanced her cat-like abilities as well," Drago guessed.
"Now let's kick Francis's butt," Ice said.
