Chapter 14: Battle Commence!

The wolves immediately went in after them and the kung-fu masters quickly went in for the attack as they fought them one-by-one. Two of the wolves fought with Po and Monkey and they were willing to kill both of them, but Po had other ideas. He went in front of them and sat them down, causing the wolves to let out a muffled scream to remove themselves from them.

As he got up, he pounded him with his feet and sent them flying through the air with his belly. Monkey jumped behind him and took him down hard, spun them around and threw them to the other side, causing the wolves to land on the tree.

Monkey looked at Po and gave them high-fives and he said, "That's using your butt."

"Thanks. Wanna kiss it?" asked Po.

Monkey stares at him with disgust and he quicklt said, "Don't go there, man."

Viper went ahead and swiped three of them with her tail and one actually tried to grab it, which didn't go so well for her and she completely went over the edge and wrapped her body to squeeze them, causing the wolf to almost lose consciousness and he said, "You choked me."

Viper spat at their faces and she told them, in an angry tone, "That's what you get for causing pain on Arizona."

Mantis went ahead and beat them up with his pincers and then used some pressure points to make one wolf beat himself up instead of Mantis and he said, "That's one way to hit yourself."

Then another one hurdles his way and Mantis got on top of him and slapped him in the eye and sent him flying out of the palace and said, "Sayonara, sucker!"

Crane and Tigress were next to take down four wolves and one looked at her and he said, "Hey, pretty lady. Wanna curl up with a real wolf after this battle or you're just gonna beat my tail every chance you get?"

Tigress went ahead and scratched him on the nose while Crane swoops in with his wings of justice and sent shockwaves flying through them, causing them to lose balance and fall down on the ground as hard. Tigress went ahead and she told them, "I don't date wolves who are bloodthirsty and evil."

Crane winks at her and said, "Good one, Tigress."

They stood up and Crane goes up and Tigress reaches his legs and they fly up and then, Tigress lets go of his legs, does a flip and kicked them in the faces with her legs and lands on the ground.

Shifu, Shing and Kazuo went ahead and fought the other wolves and one tried to punch Shifu in the face, but Shifu had other ideas; he went ahead and kicked, punched and slapped them across the entire body. Two of them went for Kazuo and Shing, but Shing went ahead and used his claws to scratch their faces and got on top of them and roared at their faces, letting out a huge snarl.

Kazuo then got on top of Shing's mane and he taunted them saying, "Hey, over here, butt-dog faces!"

They then grab a hold of Kazuo, but he quickly got away and then Shing follows him as well and when they stopped, Kazuo turns around and shows his butt to their faces, letting out his secret weapon.

One wolf gasped and he already knew that he was gonna do next and he angrily said, "You wouldn't dare."

Kazuo scoffed at him and shouted, "Talk to the butt!"

He rose up his tail and lets out his powerful stink into their faces, causing the wolves to cough and groan in disgust while Shing went ahead and beat them down and scratched them every which way but loose.

Shing chuckled as he gave Kazuo a knuckle touch and said, "Now that's stink power."

"You said it, bro!" Kazuo added, high-fiving him.

Arizona, Ruiz and Musaki were the ones to battle Mah-ru, Moki and another set of wolves to take them down and Arizona and Ruiz grabbed a hold of their elbows and Ruiz took them down with his feet, kicking them in the head and he throws Arizona to another side, making the wolves chase him and he beats them to the punch. Mah-ru punches him in the face and goes for it again, but is stopped by Arizona's hand and he punches him back as well.

Musaki went ahead and fought them great and knocked two of them out and Arizona went behind him and he got on top of Arizona, flipped him in the air and does an aerial dynamic superpower, using his fist and took them down flat.

But the wolves didn't come close to giving up. Mah-ru growled at them and said, "Enough of this! Let's kill!"

The wolves cheered as well and they immediately went ahead and beat up the Five, Po, Shifu, Kazuo, Shing, Ruiz and Musaki. They all tried to stop them, but they weren't strong enough to take them down as well. Every punch, slam, scratch, shove and other usage of weapons the wolves used were gonna take the rest of the gang down hard. Horrified by this, Arizona tried to stop them but one wolf smacked him across the face and he fell down to the ground and landed on the mud.

Then, a muddy Arizona got back up and he suddenly witnessed a horrible sight-most of his friends beaten, battered, bruised and bloodied up. He was devastated to know that this would happen and he slowly walks over to them, one-by-one, all knocked out and he sees Musaki lying there, with blood and scars over his face and he went over to him and asked, "Musaki! Are you alive?"

No answer. He shook him up just so that he can wake up, but he heard a soft painful moan coming out of him and Musaki looked at him and he sees a very grief-stricken Arizona in front of him and he said, "They're too freakin' strong."

Arizona feared the worst that he might die. He panted heavily and he said, "Don't leave me like this. You're like the only friend I ever have."

"I'm not dead, dude. Just knocked out." Musaki said, in pain.

The lightning strikes and thunder started to rumble and Arizona looked up to the sky and sees that it's gonna rain and he looked at him and Musaki told him, "You gotta fight them. Show them no mercy."

"But...I can't do this without you." Arizona said, tearfully.

Musaki chuckled softly and he said, "Don't worry about me. I'll be fine."

Soon enough, he blacked out and Arizona tried to wake him up, but he was already unconscious. He buried his face on Musaki's shoulder and started crying. He hugged him deeply and he figued that someone close to him would be knocked out and as he looked at the others; they were a mixture of unconsciousness and exhaustion, like they couldn't go on.

Then, he looks up and there's Mah-ru standing there with a smirk on his face and Arizona slowly stood up from the ground, with a face filled with rage, anger and hate seeping through him. He started breathing and then, he lets out a huge growl and a scream as the lightning strikes again and Arizona shouted, "YOU WILL FREAKIN' PAY FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE!"

He immediately came at Mah-ru and beat him down hard and harder than ever. Punches were being thrown back and forth and he was gonna fight them until one dies. Mah-ru grabbed him and slammed him down on the ground and the tree and threw him back to the mud again.

He laid there, muddy, beaten up and bloodied, but he never gave up. Mah-ru and his comrades came down and he said, "When will you get it? No one would ever be friends with you nor even defend you. Dai Ling has always told you that, but then this...this...panda came in and ruined everything! Love does not exist anymore and it's all a sign of weakness! And we are willing to end your life because of your defiance!"

Arizona groans in pain and tells them, "You're wrong."

That made Mah-ru more furious as Arizona stood up and he said, "You've always been wrong about everything. You've been giving me all this hate, torture and I was your easy target...and I've been letting you ruin my life for 15 years. But not anymore...because love does exist and all you did was tell me stupid lies about me and the world. I'm surrounded by friends...good friends who are always there for me and helped me up when no one else would! You don't even deserve to live anymore because everything you and Dai Ling ever told me...was a lie. This is my new life now..."

Arizona weilds in his fighting stance and he finished, "...and I am not gonna let you destroy it again!"

Every wolf came to him, but Arizona beat them down harder, not caring if he would kill them. He used his methods to take them down and ends up with him throwing every wolf out of the hill to their deaths. As more came in, he beats them up and then, he squeezed their neck, as blood starts coming out of them and throws him out of the way.

Mah-ru watched in horror as Arizona defeats every wolf coming his way, including tearing them apart, limb-from-limb and scratching them with every chance he gets.

Then, he looks at Mah-ru and he's still willing to kill Arizona and Mah-ru scratched him on the nose, face and shoulder, letting out a very painful howl and Mah-ru puts his sword onto his neck and he said, "You'll regret that you did that. Now...prepare to embrace your last day of living!"

Before he could even kill Arizona, a knife suddenly emerged out of nowhere and stabs Mah-ru in the back as well, causing him to roar in pain and Arizona then took the sword from him and slices off his head and devoruing every part of his body and throws the remains down that hill.

Arizona pants heavily as blood was all over his shorts and some on himself, but he felt a sense of relief that his past is now dead. He looks down and he sees a sai from under the mud. He looks up and sees Musaki laying there with a thumbs-up on top and Arizona does the same as well.

Arizona climbs up and Musaki lets out a helping hand to pull him back to the top and Musaki told him, "Wow, and I thought Tigress was harcore."

They both looked at each other and Arizona hugged him tightly, feeling a wave of emotion all over that he's all right and he said, "I thought I might lose you."

Musaki chuckled and he said, "Like I said, you'll never lose me. You took down these guys by yourself."

Arizona felt like he got a sense of accomplishment on himself that he did this on his own and he sees all the other kung-fu masters stand up and watched Arizona bask in on his glory and it impressed them all beyond his wildest dreams.

Shifu went over to him and they stared at each other for a minute and he said, "I am very proud of you...my son."

He gave him a bow and Arizona felt proud too and he said, "Thanks...father."

Arizona bowed back as did the rest of the kung-fu masters and Kazuo, Ruiz and Shing followed suit as well. Tigress happily went to him and said, "You are hardcore, just like me."

Musaki rolled his eyes at that comment and then he said, "I agree with her."

Then, he froze and realize that he just agreed with her and he asked, in shock, "Did that just come out of my mouth?"

"Yes it did, Musaki." Tigress said, with a chuckle.

"Then...how do I take it back?"

Tigress went to him and he said, "You can't."

Po went up to Arizona and gave him a huge hug and shouted, "That was AWWWWWWWWESOMMMMMMME!"

Arizona felt like he was gonna be choked to death and he said, "Can you let go now? I'm losing the feeling in my neck."

He immediately let go of him and he said, with an embarassing chuckle, "Sorry, wolfie guy."

Arizona felt like his past is starting to exit out of his mind and replaced it with a new feeling-moving forward and gaining peace. He chuckled and said, "Thanks to you guys, you kept me going and I found peace within myself."

Shifu smiled at him and he said, "Yes, you did. You found peace within yourself and with your kung-fu."

Musaki patted him on the shoulder and said, "Looks like you have the fighting skills of a kung-fu master."

"I guess you're right."

Musaki took a deep sigh and he said, "I need a bath."

Arizona looked at his muddy and bloody self and said, "Yeah, me too. It's like I took a blood-mud bath and it ends up with me being dirty."

"But at least you're gonna be groomed again." Tigress added.

"I knew that one was coming."

VICTORIOUS! Is Arizona radical or what? There's more coming up!
