Authors Notes: SOOOOOO sorry for the wait! I would have updated and typed quicker than this long, but during the break, I had some work to do in the house when my family and I left for the country. This chapter is going to be another epic situation that you will all love. By the way, please tell me if I should add songs. It really takes a lot of time for me to type out lyrics for certain parts in the chapters. By the way, for those who noticed that the words are no longer italics, it means that my brother has given me his account to use from now on. And from here, I shall be called 'MASTER T-REX' instead of 'MASTER T-REX's Brother.' Let's get started:
Animation Universe 2005: Thanks for reviewing my story and giving your opinion to me on the characters. Thank you for choice on the song, but I lost interest in it, but thank you for your opinion. I read White Brotherhood, it's awesome! (Everybody else reading this should read his story).
Tyson the Wolf Omega: Thank you for reviewing my story, it also means a lot to me. This is just as awesome as you would or would not expect it.
P.O.W. M.I.A. YANF: Thank you for reviewing my story as well, I know you will always be there to review it. I also like your story as well, so keep updating!
awesomeness2207: Thank you for taking an interest in my story (even though you already have) and reviewing. I will try my best to update.
Rakuro Kamigama of SkyBreaker: I am sorry for how I p.m. you, so it is your choice if you want to read it or not. But thank you for your opinion on my story.
So, without further ado, the second part of my pervious chapter.

Po, Wolfe, The Five, Cole, and his friends hurried as best as they could over the mountain ranges to get to the village that they were supposed to go to. But Cole had a feeling in his gut that something was there, there was no point in thinking otherwise. As a blizzard of a storm began to form, Cole tried his best to control it and not delay their travels. So far, it was working and they got through it without being bothered by the cold.
But for all of them, the encounter they had earlier made them not worry about the cold at all.
Po almost accidently slipped and became a living rolling snowball, but Kuo was quick enough to stop him and Po turned to her to thank her. There was a small and unnoticeable but awkward silence between the two as Po and Kuo looked into each other's eyes. Out of shyness, Kuo flew away from him in a blink of an eye, leaving Po confused by what just happened. As he kept running, she was lingering in the back of his mind for some reason.
As for Tigress, she couldn't get the idea of being aided by someone at all.
She, a master of the tiger style, leader of the five, strong as steel, and can protect herself was vulnerable from the slow and yet quick moment the spear was about to impale her. She was saved by what Cole calls a 'conduit.' For some reason, it made her confused to feel 'saved' when she and her friends do most of the 'saving.'
"Were close!" Yelled Crane, as they ran over a few more hills to the village.
What Cole and his friends were surprised to see reminded them of a skiing resort in the Alps.
The village itself looked like it was made from rock and stone. There was a central pathway that looked very open. Their eyes followed its path until they saw a gigantic mountain next to the village.
(Strange. How can something that big was not noticed until now? We'll never know.)
"It's bigger than Mount Everest!" Said Zeke, being surprised of its size.
"What's Mount Everest?" Asked Viper
Zeke looked back at her through his trade-marked sunglasses and said, "The most popular mountain in the world. Well, at least where we come from."
Cole ignored him the entire time and overlooked the area. As he looked and used his 'sense', he felt the presence of many hostiles in the village. His eyes caught sight of a log house that was on the side of one of the mountains. He 'scenced' that there was someone inside it.
"There is a log house." Said Cole, getting the groups attention, "We should check it out."
They ran to the house and Cole knocked on the door. They waited for a few seconds, and then the door opened to a young rabbit. He looked like he was in his 20's. But Cole didn't have time for meeting people, so he cut to the chase.
Cole said, "Hi, we need a place to stay and-"
"You are the lightning bender, aren't you?" The stranger asked with curiosity.
"Uh… yeah." Replied Cole with a confused face.
The strangers eyes widened and said, "Come in, come in, you have no idea how long I have waited to meet you." He went back inside, leaving the door open for them to come in. They followed suit inside the house. It looked like any ordinary house, except the walls that surrounded the 4 sided complex were the only walls. So it was one giant room made of wood for walls.
He sat down on one of his chairs and said, "You all must be among each other as the Dragon Warrior, The Furious Five, the lightning bender and his friends. I heard through the wind that they whisper of your coming."
They were shocked to know that that was like what Po's biological father said. Embarrassingly, everybody saw Po open the window and whisper, "Master Shifu, if you can hear me, can you tell me what you're doing right now?"
He leaned his ear to the wind to listen. But there was no reply.
The stranger chuckled and said, "It does not pass messages, warrior. It only passes rumors, tales, and what heroes come to places. Sorry."
Po looked down in disappointment and said, "Well, it was worth a shot." He closed the window and went back to his friends. They snickered a little by his embarrassing act, but Po is always shameless.
The stranger then said, "What business do you have here in your quest?"
Tigress replied before anybody could explain, "We were on our way here anyways to resupply on our things but was attacked by an army of wolves and boars. We came here due to our concern that there may be more in the village. Are they here? And if they are, can you tell us what happened?"
The stranger then had a sad face and said, "Yes, they are here and they are terrorizing the village of its resources. If we run out and the cold storms become more violent, we won't survive. But that is all I know, what I don't know is what they are doing."
"Well, we can't sit here and do nothing, we need to attack them." Said Zeke
"Nonsense, they are more powerful and deadly then you or the lightning benders powers. There is no way to know what you are up against." Replied back the stranger.
"Ahem." Everybody stopped and turned to Wolfe, who was silent the whole time. He then said, "I would probably know what we are up against, since; I use to be like them. I can blend in with the group due to my status. I will be in and out with information before you guys even know it."
There was silence. But, everybody thought that was a good idea. Then Zeke said, "Reminds me when I was spying on the Militia."
Without stopping him, Wolfe helped himself to the door, saying, "I'll be back." He went on all fours and disappeared into the snowy winds.
(First Song Plays, no lyrics, but acts as a theme)
They all decided to rest and eat. Po and the stranger helped them serve themselves and rest on pillows. Cole took his spot on one of the horizontal support beams near the roof, but before he got ready, he saw Tigress take her place on another support beam across from him.
As everybody got ready to sleep, Tigress whispered, "Cole."
Cole turned a little and whispered, "Yeah?"
Like before, Tigress wasn't use to saying 'thank you' to somebody, but she whispered, "Thanks for saving my life."
This took Cole by surprise. He turned around to see her clearly and said, "Hey, it's what friends are for. They always have each other's backs. No matter what."
For a moment, Tigress lingered on as she stared into his eyes, but he turned around and went back to sleep. As she turned around, she actually had a feeling of safety whenever she was around Cole. That began to make her feel all warm and fuzzy inside. She went to sleep peacefully with the feeling within her.
(End song)
…
As they woke up and ate breakfast, they all ate pancakes. Then, they heard a knock at the door. When the stranger opened it, it revealed Wolfe.
"Am I late for breakfast?" Asked Wolfe
"Nope, you are just in time for it." Replied Po.
As he ate, Kuo asked, "So what did you find out?"
Wolfe stopped eating, swallowed, and said in a sad tone, "It's worse than we thought. They are not just terrorizing the village, they are raiding shops, locking people in cages, executing people for resisting, and committing other crimes for their own amusement on people or monuments or by having the pleasure of being with other women forcefully. Married or not. They are also stealing metal to make cannons again, and soon it will turn on the people imprisoned. We have to find a way to stop them or all of hell will break loose."
There was dead silence. It was much worse than they ever thought. They all silently decided to take a course of action immediately. But, as Tigress thought this, she looked over to Cole, who was not the same cheerful self but an angry, pissed off tiger that would kill anybody in his way.
Cole angrily got up, now everybody noticed how angry he was when Nix then said, "The Demon's pissed off."
Cole walked to the stranger and asked as nicely as he could, due to him being angry, "What was the central pathway in the village for?"
Sensing the anger boil inside him, the stranger quickly spoke, "We use it to clear the snow on the mountain so that it does not cover the village with snow. Like a sewer line."
Cole said, "Thank you for your hospitality." He then walked out of the door, leaving his friends.
"This is very bad." Zeke said as he got up and followed him outside.
They thanked the rabbit. As they took their stuff and left, Po, sounding scared, said, "What happened when Cole get's pissed off?"
With a scary glance through his sunglasses, he said, "You don't want to know. Let's just say, things tend to blow up around him." Po, the Five, Wolfe, and Rachel were now scared, realizing the true power that Cole possesses and what it can do. As they left, they saw Cole coldly looking over the village and mountain range. His gaze traveled through the village and from the pathway followed weird machines that work on the front of the long path. He then looked up to the peak of the mountain. Just like that, a plan formed in his head.
He turned back to his friends, who were looking at him with fear in his eyes. But as he left, he calmed down and focused on making a plan. Cole walked up to them and said, "I have a plan, but you have to listen and do everything I tell you to do, is that understood?"
Due to being afraid of him, they all nodded their heads obediently.
"Nix, Monkey." Said Cole, and the two came forward.
"Monkey, I need you to make something that will cause a distraction and Nix, I need you to protect monkey from the enemies in case you guys get into a sticky situation."
"Don't worry demon," Nix put an arm around Monkey, "We can cause some distractions." With an evil chuckle, they disappeared from a red haze.
"Po, Kuo." The pair came to Cole and he said, "I need you to find something that can help the others push the enemies to the pathway. Then I want Kuo to block those pathways out with her ice."
Before Po could object with the idea, Kuo put a hand on his shoulder and she flew with Po in the air as a thin ice sphere.
"Rachel, Zeke." As the pair came forward, Cole said, "I want you guys to use your heads and find a way to use those machines," Cole pointed to the two towers with gears to the front of the pathway, "To create a pathway for me to come in against the wolves and boars."
Zeke and Rachel agreed and hurried down to the village.
Cole turned his attention to Tigress, Crane, Viper and Mantis, "As for the rest of you, you guys need to find out how to free the people locked in the cages, and if you can't, wait for me."
They all ran down the hill and all that was left was Wolfe. Cole had a smirk on his face and said, "Are you a pyro?"
This took Wolfe by surprise, but he said, "Sort of."
"Good, because I want you to secretly go into that big factory where they make the cannons and blow it up."
This shocked him, but all Wolfe said was, "Fine."
He began to walk down the hill, but stopped and turned back to Cole. Wolfe asked with concern, "What are you gonna do?"
Cole gave an evil smile and said, "My part of the plan." He turned and launched into the air with an ice jump, and then he used his static thrusters to go to the mountain. When he hit the face of the mountain, he used his lightning tether to leap a good distance to the peak.
Wolfe looked back to the hill he was walking on and thought about what he was up to.
…
Nix's & Monkey's Part
The two monkeys silently made their way inside the village undetected (because of Nix's flying ability). Monkey was having goosebumps from the flying experience. But he took control of his gitters and went to a broken down blacksmith store. He quickly made some bombs by mixing some powder and adding a weird substance.
"What'ch ya makin'?" Asked Nix
Monkey made a cartful of bombs. The shell is designed as a trip-wire trap, so the explosion can be quick to take affect whenever a person walks past it.
He turned around and showed the bomb by saying said, "This will make the wolves go to the pathway because of the fowl odor. I call it the, 'stink bomb'."
The pair only grinned at the mayhem they could possibly cause. They put them all in an abandoned food cart and as they silently traveled one side of the village, they planted the bombs on the roads and hid it with some boxes. As they planted one after the other, they were all connected to a long and thin wire, so if one goes off, it will cause a chain reaction and they all will blow up with a stinky smell.
As they planted the last one at the farthest corner of the village, they hid behind a wall and waited.
To their utter shock an amusement, a wolf patrol came by and one of them noticed a wire. But it was too late, because they stepped on one of the wires. One stinky explosion after another spread across half of the city like wildfire. They all smelled the reaching odor and ran to the path way.
The monkeys laughed their evil shirking and waited for the others to do their part of the plan.
…
Po's & Kuo's Part
They too silently entered the village without being spotted (due to Kuo's flying ability). Unfortunately, they didn't have a clue on what to do. So all they did for a few minutes was stand in an alleyway and thought on what to do.
While they were thinking, Kuo spotted some wolves coming, so she pulled Po deeper into the alleyway. As the pair ran deeper into the alleyway until Po saw something over the buildings. There was a waterway that controlled the village's water supply.
"Hey Kuo, I have an idea, but I need your help." Po said to her with the same 'that's awesome' face.
Kuo was a little surprised by how Po is always thrilled to be in these dangerous situations. I'll ask him later. Thought Kuo. "What is it?" Kuo questioned in a curious tone.
"See those waterways at the side of the village." Said Po as he pointed to the side of the village. "I need your help to make the water cold and to use that to flush the village of all those wolves."
This took her by surprise. She never expected Po to be that smart. "It sounds like a good idea."
After Po gave a kind smile to her and ran to where his 'awesome' idea will take place, Kuo was a little impressed by maintaining the situation. She sensed that Po had a kind heart, just like Cole. As she caught up with Po, she felt this strange heaviness in her heart, which, for some strange reason, made her blush to the fact that she sort of liked Po.
As they reached the side of the waterway, Kuo focused her ice powers on the water, causing it to go colder than normal freezing temperatures. Once Kuo was done making the water colder, she turned to see Po going towards one of the beams and trying to impress her, he said, "Get ready to see the work of the dragon warrior in action!"
Po put both hands on the beam and pushed with all his might on the support beam, but Po pushing on the beam looked like an ant pushing a shoe.
He tried lifting it, then hitting it with his hand (hutting his fingers), and stubbed his toe when he kicked it.
"Ahh-ahh-ahhh!" Po cried out in pain.
He looked up to see Kuo being amused by his 'failing' impressions. She put both of her paws on her hips and said, "You gonna have to do a lot better than that to try and impress me."
Po was a little surprised and said, "Really, you actually thought I was trying to impress you?"
This hit Kuo like a ton of bricks. She just realized what she said and found herself in a strange situation that no agent would expect to end up in. She assumed that Po impressed her when he wasn't, then admitting it to make the situation awkward is embarrassing.
"I mean-um, am there any other way to make it fall?"
Po only had a confused face until everything began to click. Po crossed his arms and said, "Do you like me?"
This made Kuo blush a little, but was hidden by her white fur. She REALLY didn't want to be in this situation, but, due to her smart thinking, she said, "Did you use the Inner Peace stance? You should try that."
(Important fact: if ever in a relationship, women use a Jedi trick that makes you look like the jerk, ends arguments, and messes with the guy's mind every time. If you think I'm wrong, look up Jo Koy: Don't make him angry. How women do it, men will never know.)
Successfully, she used her 'mind' trick that agents use and made Po completely confused and decided to go back to the beam. On one side, Kuo had a relieved face that she dodged a bullet there. But on the other side, Po was smarter then she anticipated and pretended to be tricked by her 'womanizing' powers. (Ha! Me and my humor. XD) Kuo began to watch in awe on how Po went to the beam, closed his eyes made hand motions when he swept his right leg slowly across the ground, then using the double-palm strike from his Inner Peace stance, bringing a powerful blow to the beam, but it only cracked it.
Po looked back and said in a teasing tone, "Impressed yet?"
She only blushed, she thought that her skills confused Po, but she began to have second thoughts that he should not be underestimated. She then watched as Po climbed a hill and made a snowball. He made it roll down the hill, making it grow bigger until it became the size of a boulder. It hit the beam, causing it to break apart and for it to cause a chain reaction on the other beams. The cold water began to fall out of the waterway when all the support beams fell, causing the side of the village and the water to act like a toilet (XD), flushing out all the wolves and boars to the pathway that separated the village in half.
This entire moment made Kuo stare at Po in awe. She, after all, underestimated his intelligence. Bring herself back together, she walked up Po and said in a kind tone that made Po blush, "Huh, I guess you did impress me. Come on, we need to regroup with the others at that weird gate." Kuo put an arm around Po, in which his checks turned into a shade of red, and flew him to the gates that acted as a gate for the pathway. One the pair reached their location, they were greeted by wolves and boars, but Po also got the sniffles from the cold. They fought the wolves and boars together.
Kuo was amused by how she could push around Po using her charms, mentally and little bit physically too. Po, on the other hand, was smart enough to know that she was beginning to like him. Sure Po may still be a little immature for his age, but he was also mature enough of the people and situations that are around him.
…
Rachel's & Zeke's Part
"Why do I always get paired up with you?" said the annoyed Rachel.
The two were running from alleyway to alleyway, trying not to be spotted, but the annoyed Zeke turned around and said, "For the record, this is the second time we're paired together. If we want to live and not get caught, we need to stay silent and stay hidden. Now come on."
The pair hurried through the alleyways and streets, they finally reached the gates. The two towers were about as big as a tenement and was wide for something big, but they didn't know what it might be used for. As they climbed the interior of the towers, they saw wolves and boars unconscious on the ground and frozen in ice like statues.
With anxious looks on their faces, they continue into the towers until they climbed to the top. There was a stone bridge that connected the two towers at the top. When they reached the station that controlled the gears of the towers, they found Po, Kuo, Monkey, and Nix near the station as well, talking to each other to pass the time.
When Po spotted them over Kuo shoulder, he got up and said, Hey guys, what took you so long?"
"Wolves and boars were asleep, so we didn't want to wake them up." Joked Rachel
Zeke shrugged and said, "Let's get a look at this bad boy."
He walked to the machine that was stationed at the center of the bridge. It looked a lot like levers that is used to operate a crane. Zeke had to dig really hard into his brain from all those shop classes he took when Cole was in college. He had some memory on how to operate on this sort of machinery, even though he is a little rusty.
Hell, they don't know that! All I need to do is work my magic. It can't really be that hard. Thought Zeke
"Alright, let me just work my magic and watch the fireworks." Zeke pulled on some safety levers and he was able to hear the gears move in place so that they could be operated. As the gears hit each other into position, Po asked, "Have you ever done this before?"
"Bunch of times, though I might be a little rusty." Zeke replied as he pulled the lever on the far left. The gears began to constrict themselves by making the gates unlock.
"Now all I need to do now is to find how to open the gates." Zeke said as he took his hands off the lever he pulled and tried to find the ones that opened the gates.
"Now there has to be something that will open them. Where is it? I think-" His words were cut off when he heard two levers turned downward. He looked up to see Rachel and her hands on the levers with an amused face.
"Not bad, for someone who is rusty." Said the amused Rachel
Zeke quickly stood up and tried to give a charming smile while saying, "Why thank you for the lovely compliment." He even did the wiggle on his eyebrows to make her laugh.
She laughed a little, due to Zeke acting like a gentlemen (he rarely does that) and trying to be funny at the same time. The two pandas behind them looked on the pair with smiles on their faces when they both stared at each other with eye/sunglass contact and the pair of monkeys smiled and snickered as they both tried to get out of eye contact. Rachel and Zeke turned around to the sound of the gate moving, both pigs being thankful that the small and awkward moment, but also didn't want to end it for some strange reason.
The gates began to slowly move apart, causing the ground to cave in. At first glance, it looked like it was eroded away by weather, but then snow began to poor in, making it act like a sink barrier for something big
They all decided to wait for the others to come.
…
Wolfe's Part
Wolfe ran through the streets, knowing that his armor and species will help him blend in with the packs and armies. He ran until he caught sight of the factory. It looked just like the building back in Gongman City. As he went inside, he thought up of a plan to take everybody out onto the pathway and destroy the factory.
The plan involved getting hurt, so as he went inside, he picked up a hammer and put the handle of the hammer into his mouth. He then took an arrow from its holster inside the factory and shoved it into his left arm. He moaned very loudly of the pain, but knew that this will pay off and that Cole will heal him before an infection could spread on his arm.
He acted like he was injured as he busted through the doors, immediately, he was surrounded by a few wolves.
One said, "What happened?"
With beautiful acting and exaggeration, Wolfe said, "The others near the pathway are trapped and are under attack, we need reinforcements."
They all left and howled inside the complex, alerting all the wolves and boars to leave the complex and help their allies. Wolfe hid himself in a bale of hay as everybody left. Once the complex was lifeless, he came out of the bale of hay and broke the arrow head; he then slowly pulled out the arrow and let the blood-covered stick to hit the ground. It was painful, but worth it.
He grabbed some gun powder and placed the barrels near certain beams that held the building in place. He took one and made a trail for him to lead outside. Once he was finished, he took a torch and lit the trail. It immediately was set aflame as it traveled down the trail.
Wolfe took cover behind a wall, waiting for it to explode. At first, nothing happened, but then the whole roof caved in and fire came out of every window and door. In seconds, the walls fell and everything in it was reduced to runnel and ash.
Cole was right, thought Wolfe as he watched the fire, I really am a pyromaniac. He then turned and saw that the 'help' he sent was also trapped in the pathway.
He turned on all fours and ran to the towers, where the others will meet.
…
The Furious Five's Part
The group wasted no time after the others created a distraction on the enemies to the pathway. When it was clear, they all split up and broke down over four dozen cages that were spread all over the village. The villagers were set free and took shelter in their stone and rock houses. The five (four to be exact, but then Wolfe came across their path and joined them) regrouped near the towers and climbed to the station.
As they reached it, Monkey came by and said, "We opened the gates and flushed out the wolves and boars."
"We released all the prisoners from the cages." Replied Crane
"And I blew up a factory full of cannons!" Wolfe said excitedly. Everybody looked at him with shock on their faces.
"What?" Asked the confused wolf, "Turns out I'm a pyromaniac and it was all Cole's idea."
"Speaking of Cole," Said Tigress, easily hiding the worried tone in her voice, "where is he?"
What scared Po, Wolfe, and the five was the sound of Cole's voice, even though he is not in the room.
"Zeke, pick up." Said Cole
"Where's that coming from?" Asked the scared and surprised Mantis.
"Zeke, pick up your damn radio!" Everybody turned to Zeke, sine that was where the voice was coming from. Zeke then had the 'oh yeah' look when he picked up a walkie talkie and said, "This is what I use to talk to Cole at far distances, that way, we talk to each other anywhere."
"ZEKE!" Yelled Cole
He put the device on speaker and said, "I'm here, brother."
"Did you do everything I told you to do?" Asked Cole
"Cole," cutted in Tigress, though she find it weird to talk into something small that has Coles voice, she said, "we all completed the tasks in your plan. Where are you?"
There was a little silence, and then the earth started to rumble. They all almost lost their footing but regained balance through the shaking of the earth.
"Look up." That was all Cole said before he hung up. Everybody looked up to the face of the mountain and had eyes wide open and jaws dropped by what they saw.
…
Cole's Part
Earlier, Cole was using his lightning tether to jump from one part of the face to the next. Before he reached the top, Cole planted sticky grenades inside the snow, which will not blow up until he passes them. When he reached the peak, he stopped and took in a deep breath of the fresh air. He once again felt content with being one with the air once more, being one with the elements too.
He opened his eyes and looked down at the mountain face. He could feel the heavy snow under his feet, just waiting to fall down and cause an avalanche.
That's the idea.
(Start song)
(first part of solo)
Cole had a bright smile as he casted his right arm out, the ice near his feet began to grow into a strong and thin crystalized ice that shade into a snowboard.
(Second part of solo)
Once it reached his right hand, he pushed the ice board down on the snow. As it began to slide, Cole hopped on to the board, the ice immediately enclosing around his feet.
(Third part of solo)
As his momentum and weight began to push him down, he tested his skills on his turns and jumps, and he immediately got the hand of it.
There's nothing now that I can say
To make you to stay here with me forever
Cole had a smile on his face when he began to speed down the mountain on his make-shift snowboard.
There's nothing now that I can do
To make you want me like I need you to,
I need you to,
As Cole turned and look back, he raised his right hand behind him, making every grenade he passes explode inside the snow. The snow began to fall on itself, causing an avalanche to form.
Just give me one last chance to say this
Cole kept shredding through the snow as he passed and exploded every grenade he planted. It only made the avalanche bigger.
Just give me one last chance to say
What's on my mind and I will get it right
When Cole passed all the grenades he planted, there was a huge wall of snow and rock coming right at him.
If I could only get my head above the water for a moment of your time
Cole looked back to see that huge mass. It surprised him a bit. He expected a mountain this size to have a larger avalanche, but it will do. Cole crouched on the board and pushed his thrusters forward, giving him more speed.
Cole was about to get buried under the avalanche he caused, so with quick precision, he saw an iced cave. He launched a rocket at the wall and it exploded, leaving an opening that Cole went into.
But you seem so strong
And I can't hold my breath for long
Have you ever tried to scream underwater?
Cole dodged multiple bumps in the ice and sharp pillars that could hit him. He then saw an opening, so he took it. It only made him jump over a giant black and cold hole, but he used his thrusters to pass to the other side as he did a hand grab 360o which made Cole look back at his grab and smirked.
You'll choke!
Cole then launched another rocket at the wall, creating an opening that he went through, but as he went out, the avalanche was on his tail again.
You'll choke!
Cole realized that the avalanche must stay on course if his plan is to succeed. He summoned an ice sphere on his right hand, acting as a magnate for the avalanche to follow.
You said I always sang to loud to sing you a love song
Well, I save my soft voice for the things I really mean
He twisted and turned around the few trees that blocked his way, but managed to stay in front of the avalanche.
You always say I had a hard time saying what's on my mind
Well, here it goes, I hate you for what you've done to me!
As he went on, the surface became ice, making him go faster, and in the process, making the avalanche go faster. He then jumped off a small hill that sticked out of the mountain face and jumped off it. He did a tail fish hand grab backwards, time slowing down as the pull of gravity pushed him forward.
Just give me one last chance to say this
Just give me one last chance to say
What's on my mind and I will get it right
Cole landed back on the snow, now seeing the village at the bottom of the mountain, as he went downward, he thought of giving them a call. Just to make sure.
If I could only get my head above the water for a moment of your time
But you seem so strong
And I can't hold my breath for long
Have you ever tried to scream underwater?
You'll choke!
"Zeke, pick up." Said Cole
"Where's that coming from?" Asked the scared and surprised Mantis.
Cole was annoyed, realizing that they don't know what a walkie talkie is. "Zeke, pick up your damn radio!"
He then heard in the background that Zeke was explaining what he is going to use to talk to Cole.
"ZEKE!" Yelled Cole
He quickly heard Zeke say, "I'm here, brother."
"Did you do everything I told you to do?" Asked Cole
"Cole, we all completed the tasks in your plan. Where are you?"
Cole had an idea on how to get them all surprised.
"Look up."
You'll choke!
(First part of solo)
That was all Cole said before he hung up. As Cole traveled closer to the village, he could see all those shocked faces on how he did it. He would laugh, but he was too busy outrunning an avalanche, so he held it in for the moment. Cole traveled past the open gates, through the pathway.
The avalanche hit the walls of the gates, but it still stood against the force, it also had hollow trenches near the walls to stop the avalanche short. The avalanche squeezed into the pathway, acting like a pipe with running water.
(Second solo)
Cole was still able to outrun the avalanched as it swallowed the wolves and boars whole. He did a few jumps, tricks, and grinds on the walls and snow as well.
(Third and fourth part of solo)
Al of the wolves and boars became buried under 20 feet of snow by the time he reached the narrow part of the pathway. Cole's friends were till shocked by his actions that Po would call, 'Totally awesome!'
When the last words been said and last tears been shed
I will miss you, miss you, my friend
And I can't tell you lies
Even after all these years
Cole crouched on his board and was ready to do an ice jump as a ramp. He pushed his thrusters forward as he was grinding on the pillar he made.
I – still – cry!
(Ending tune/song)
He jumped from his ice ramp and landed on the other side of the wall. He landed on the snow and pushed the side of his board forward, making him stop. He then broke the ice around his feet and stepped on the end of the board, making it bend upright and to be caught in his hand. As he walked back, he saw his friends already down to wait for him.
Still shocked, as usual.
Then Po came down and said with his fists in the air, "THAT WAS AWESOME!"
Everybody else came back from their homes and cheered for their new hero. This took a while as the group resupplied on what they needed and decided to stay for the night.
In the distance, Ti Lung was beginning to have a grudge against Cole for foiling with his plans and army. He left and put on a disguise in an alleyway. He will strike when Cole is vulnerable.
Everybody was asleep, but Cole left to take a walk. Tigress was also up, but was thinking about what Zeke said, about Cole always having to be in these situations. She began to wonder what other encounters Cole as ever been in, but decided to hold it in another time. She went to bed and fell asleep, but she will have a dream that is strange in its own way.
…
Cole walked across the dark and empty streets. He breathed in the nice fresh snowy air that is untouched by pollution. As he walked on in peace, he noticed up ahead that something was there. As he hid around a corner and heard movement, he popped out with lightning at the ready.
He only saw an old and poorly-robbed snow leopard on the ground, looking for his cane. By guessing that he had round black glasses, he must be blind.
Cole was thankful that the guy didn't hear him, nor see him, or else he would have been startled.
He walked in a helpful matter to the old leopard and said, "Do you need help?"
The leopard looked at the direction of the sound and said, "Yes, I have lost my cane and I cannot find it anywhere. Would you help me?"
Cole looked around the street and found the guys cane near the corner of another block. He picked it up and put it into the blind guys hand, saying, "Hers your cane."
The old leopard got up with his cane and said, "Thank you so much. I would cause accidents if I lost my cane. Could you help me sit down somewhere?"
Cole took the blind guy by the arm and made him sit on the side of a bench.
"Thank you so much. You have a very kind soul that will always help others in need." Said the blind leopard
Cole smiled and said, "Hey, it's nothing."
Cole then thought it would be good to sit down too after his long walk. He sat down and looked up at the sky, beginning to think about someone he really cared about. He also had a sad face as he remembered those last moments of the one he loved dying in his arms.
His train of thought was interrupted when the blind man said, "Is there something troubling you?"
Cole sighed a little and said, "It's about a girl who I loved that died in my arms, and there was nothing I could do about it.
Through Ti Lungs blind glasses, he saw how troubled he was about it, and was happy to know he had a weakness. Ti lung asked, "If you don't mind me asking, what was her name?"
Cole smiled and said, "Her name is Trish."
Perfect. Thought Ti Lung.
"I'm sorry for your loss." Said Ti Lung
Cole looked at him and said, "Its fine. She's now finally at peace." He then looked up at the shy and smiled, knowing that Trish can no longer be in danger and would always watch over him.
Cole then got up and said, "I have to go. Can you find your way back?"
Ti Lung got up and pretended to be blind with his cane tapping on the ground and said, "Yes, I can find my way back alone. Thank you again for your help."
"No problem." Cole said as he walked back to inn they stayed in.
As Ti Lung disappeared into an alleyway, he took of his poor robes and glasses and threw away the cane. He jumped over a wall and ran over the snowy mountains, returning back to Gongman city.
Cole, on the other hand, went to his bed in the inn and threw away his jacket and shirt, as well as taking of his shoes. He went to bed again bare-chested and slept a relaxing and dreamless sleep.
