The Perfect Storm

In London England a day after the Vault attack the Chan Clan and the Cooper Gang were searching the town for any sign of the Castle Terminal which had risen right after some extremely rainy weather arrived.

"Kira, are you sure that Mindy will have raised the Castle Terminal in this weather?" Jackie inquired.

"Of course I'm sure. Mindy wants to help Drago tap into more of his newly acquired Thunder Powers so bad weather is the best time to raise the Castle Terminal."

"And with this weather you can't get as bad." jade added.

"What I want to know is whose idea was it to invite one of Red's Fellow Elders instead of Red himself?" Tori wondered.

The Dragon who was with them this time was a bipedal green dragon with light brown horns, wore gold cufflinks and a gold badge. He had a staff with a dragon head on it and in between the two horns of the staff rested a light gem.

The green dragon spoke, "If you must know Red was called away by Elders Tomas and Titan to discuss the possibility of a threat greater than the one we're dealing with now. And also Red wanted me to make sure that his nieces were in good hands while his son went to oversee Monica's restoration."

"Well, so far Cousin Silver's doing a good job with that, Elder Astor." Ruby explained.

"Quiet! Uncle cannot concentrate with so much talking!" the old man shouted.

"Is your Uncle always like this?" Saphira asked Jackie.

"Afraid so." he sighed. The group then continued on till they were at the edge of town.

"The Chi O Matic has detected the presence of two demon chi powers." Jim said.

"Which means Drago's present." Tim added.

"Move in quietly." Jackie whispered.

The group moved in quietly but unfortunately for them some stones fell down causing an old vase to break.

"Tohru!" the group called.

"Whoops." he answered sheepishly.

"Well, look on the bright side. It's not like Drago heard that along with Emperor Mavro and the Sinister Sisters all of whom are sporting stronger weapons." Mira said.

Right on cue Drago showed up with Emperor Mavro and the Sinister Sisters. The Sisters were holding Staffs with power crystals in their respective colors while Emperor Mavro was wielding the Varden.

"Mira!" they yelled.

"Trespassers? I cannot allow it." Drago said.

"Who are they?" Elder Astor asked Uncle.

"You see before you Drago, the son of Demon Sorcerer Shendu. Mavro, the leader of the Armada. And the Sinister sisters, witches of Halloweentown."

"Red told me and the other elders about the Demon Sorcerers and he mentioned something about an Alien Armada but he never mentioned Witches were involved." Elder Astor said.

"Because they used to be powerless." Jade noted.

Lavender put in, "Much like how Daolon Wong used to be. But enough about this, let's just give them a long overdue spanking."

"Not gonna happen! Drago, Get to the highest point of the Castle Terminal. We'll handle these punks." Scarlet said.

"On it." He started jumping up high.

"Oh, no you don't. Come on guys. Let's get him!" Ruby called.

Saphira, Ruby, and Lavender went after Drago with Elder Astor flying behind to keep them safe while the others took on Mavro and the Sinister Sisters.

Drago looked back and started spitting fire at them. Saphira countered by using her water breath to counter Drago's fire breath.

"Try some of this!" Drago clapped his hands sending blasts of thunder.

Saphira dodged which allowed Lavender to counter using her electricity breath on Drago, "Direct hit!"

"Did we finish him?" Ruby asked.

"I don't know it seemed too easy." Lavender replied.

"Lavender's right. We have to be sure," Astor said. They got closer only to be repelled back by a thunderous force, "See, ladies. First lesson of battle. Never underestimate your opponent."

"Ya got that right!" Drago agreed.

Meanwhile the rest of the team was doing battle against the Combat Kuros that the Sinister Sisters had summoned while the Sisters themselves were taking on Tohru.

"Come on, big guy. Let's see whatcha got." Scarlet taunted Tohru.

"You'll regret those words." Tohru used the spells that his Sensei taught him in an attempt to disarm the Sinister Sisters.

The three were dodging. Sage used a powerful Lightning Spell that zapped Tohru and knocked him on his ass.

"Tohru!" Jade called.

"Is down for the count runt. And you're next!" Sage replied.

"Not gonna happen," Jade attempted to do a flying kick to Sage only for Sapphire to hose her with a water spell, "Ok, that may not have been the smartest choice."

"Maybe you should go back to playing with dolls like a good little girl." Sapphire mocked.

"Dolls?! Now you've done it!" She jumped in and delivered a flying kick.

This time Sapphire dodged the attack before she began taunting Jade, "Did I hit the little shrimp's nerve?"

Jade was getting angry but remembered the time that Jackie had to deal with own anger due to Captain Black being sent to the hospital because of Valmont and the lesson Jackie taught her about controlling anger. She calmed herself and was able to focus better.

Back with Astor and the young dragons Uncle had jumped onto the Elder Dragon's back in an attempt to remove the chi.

"Are you in range of removing the demon chi from Drago yet, Chi Wizard?" Astor asked.

"A little closer."

Elder Astor flew in closer but before he could get too close a Massive Thunderbolt struck the highest point of Castle Terminal and Drago in the process.

"Oh, yeah!" Drago cheered.

"Uncle, what's happening?" Ruby asked.

"Drago is harnessing the energy from the weather itself."

Saphira spoke, "Are you saying that the power of Tchang Zu allows Drago to get hit by lightning and grow more powerful?"

"Unfortunately."

"Guys, we might want to take cover. Drago's getting ready to do something." Lavender warned them.

The group looked seeing Drago powering up. The heroes all dived for cover as Drago attacked while the Sinister Sisters casted a shield spell to protect Mavro and themselves while also absorbing the electrical energy into their staffs.

"Now this is what I'm talking about!" Drago pumped a fist. The heroes continued to dodge till Jackie spotted a shelter.

"Over there." They hurried inside.

Fortunately the shelter had a banner that said. "Scheduled for use during magically induced Thunderstorms."

"How about that?" Jade asked.

"We'll be safe from Drago's thunder powers in here." Benjamin said.

"Is everyone alright?" Michelle asked. Everyone confirmed.

"Elder Astor, can Uncle remove the Demon Chi from Drago?" Seth asked.

" It will be difficult, but the chi can still be removed."

"How long does Uncle have before it becomes bonded to Drago for good?" Ruby asked.

"It's hard to say but the longer we wait the harder it will be for Uncle to remove it."

"And we have to act fast." Uncle added.

"What about asking Carol and Camille for help?" Jade asked.

"Carol and Camille were given the week off by Prince Zuko." Mira answered.

"Well, that stinks." Jade sighed.

"Not really, young one. Remember there are times when we can't rely on our strongest players." Astor reminded her.

"I know."

"Perhaps we should get back to section 13?" Jackie suggested, "Maybe Twilight has some ideas as to where Drago might go or what he could do next."

Once the team was back at Section 13 they explained the situation to Captain Black but by the look on his face he had some bad news of his own to share.

"Well, unfortunately we got some disturbing news. Drago and the others are reported to be going to Seattle." The Captain explained.

"Seattle? What's in there?" Ruby inquired.

Jackie realized it, "The Space Needle."

"Not to mention frequent thunderstorms." Richard put in.

"Sounds like a good place for Drago to set up a new lair." Astor said.

"And serve as a perfect conduit to charge his thunder demon chi." Uncle put in.

"If that's the case then you better get going at once." Captain Black suggested.

"We're on it." Jackie confirmed.

"I've got to return to the other Dragon Elders," Astor said, "I need to give them an update on what's been going on."

"Then we'll go to Seattle at once." Uncle said.

Astor nodded as he left through a portal that allowed the elder to return to the Dragonfly Dojo while the others headed to Seattle.

Meanwhile in Seattle Drago, the Ice Crew and the Sinister Sisters arrived at the Space Needle.

"Yes. This will do nicely." Drago said.

"Was living in the Castle Terminal really that bad?" Scarlett asked, "I actually liked the place."

"This place will serve me better now that I have the thunder demon chi." Drago explained.

"How about you let me, my crew, and the Sinister Sisters trick out your new pad?" Ice offered.

"Do what you want." Drago answered.

Fist, Cobra, and Ice smiled at that while the Sinister Sisters went along to make sure they didn't get into too much trouble.

Meanwhile with Jackie Chan and Company they arrived in Seattle and as usual the place was already covered in storm clouds.

"If Drago came up here for bad weather then he's obviously in the right place." Jim noted.

"By harnessing the thunder and lightning from the Space needle Drago's thunder demon chi will be past the peak of it's power." Uncle explained.

"And if that happens it'll be nearly impossible to remove the demon chi from Drago." Tim added.

Kira and Tori had been silent which didn't go unnoticed by Jackie.

"Is there something wrong, you two?" he asked.

"There is. Remember our battle with Drago, Mavro and the Sinister Sisters at London?" Kira began.

"Yes?"

Tori continued, "The Sinister Sisters absorbed some of the lightning into their staffs. Whose to say that they won't have even more power up here?"

"Now you tell us?" Jade asked rhetorically.

"This is Camille's department. Besides we thought the first time was a fluke." Kira replied. Jackie and Jade sighed.

Meanwhile at the Space Needle, Vrak was busy working on the lightning rod that would help Drago Harness the power of Seattle's thunderstorms.

"Just a few more adjustments and we'll be ready to go." Vrak explained to Drago.

"And then there will be some fireworks."

"As long as our enemies don't ruin everything. But just in case I placed my Powermid up here to harness the power of Seattle's thunderstorms."

"Excellent." Drago smirked.

"Always helps to have a backup plan."

As soon as Vrak said that the Sinister Sisters along with the Ice Crew returned with all the supplies they needed for the new lair along with some of Mindy's cooking and Ursula herself.

"Now this is what we need." Ice said.

"To make this place the new base for the Seattle Chapter of Crime Inc?" Ursula asked.

"You betcha, sister."

"I don't know about you but we better get ready. Jackie Chan and company are gonna be here." Vrak warned them.

"Let them come," Drago replied, "When they arrive I'll shock them to their doom."

"And we're gonna help." Sapphire said.

"Yes. Your staffs are loaded up?" Drago inquired.

"Yep," Sage confirmed, "That extra jolt sped up the process. Considering that our staffs are powered by traptanium."

"Which by the way is the ultimate power source and has limitless energy." Scarlett said.

"You can yap later. I just spotted the chans," Vrak said, "They're on their way here and so is a green dragon carrying a staff with a light gem."

"So Astor of the Dragon Elders has decided to show himself. This will be fun." Ursula said.

"Everyone at your positions." Drago ordered. The bad guys got the message as they took positions.

Meanwhile with the heroes, Astor was flying with Uncle on his back to get the Chi Wizard to Drago as soon as possible while Ty Lee was taking the rest of the team in the Chariot.

"Can you not fly any faster? Demon Chi needs to be removed from Drago Quickly!" Uncle called.

"I'm trying to fly as fast as I can." Astor replied.

"Well, please hurry," Jackie pleaded, "According to the weather reports the Storm of the Century will be here any minute."

Drago was scaling up to the spire of the space needle.

"Chi Wizard, hang on this could get dangerous." Astor spoke.

Astor flew as fast as he could to try and catch up to Drago in an attempt to get Uncle close enough to remove the chi.

Drago finally reached the top, "Now to fully charge up."

"Not on our watch." Ruby and her sisters attempted to attack Drago to keep him distracted but the son of Shendu was firing at them with everything he had.

"He's tough." Saphira said.

"You have no idea what I'm capable of." Drago warned them.

"And you clearly don't know Uncle or the Elders. Hit it, guys." Lavender called.

Uncle began chanting with Astor helping out so as to give the Chi Wizard the best possible chance to remove the Thunder Demon Chi.

"No!" Drago cried.

Ursula heard that and attempted to blast Astor and Uncle but it was too little too late as the Thunder Demon Chi was removed from Drago. Fortunately Ursula managed to get Drago out of the Way as the Thunderbolt struck the Powermid.

Ursula spoke, "I'm pissed about the fact that I wasn't able to do enough to prevent you from losing the thunder demon chi but Devina says that she's already got a plan in motion to steal back the Demon Chi, Drago."

"It better work!" Drago growled.

"It will work. Trust me and Devina on this alright."

Drago growled but had a point as Ursula had the Shadowkhan take The Ice Crew and the Sinister Sisters back to the Castle Terminal.

Later on in the Vault the Thunder Demon Chi was placed into the Containment Unit along with the other five demon powers.

"Six powers down. Two more to go." Jade said.

"But the remaining two powers are going to be the toughest powers to claim yet." Astor said.

"We will do whatever it takes to ensure Drago does not acquire the last one and will have his fire demon chi removed." Uncle said.

"Good to hear. For now I would suggest you go check on Monica," Astor said, "From what Prince Zuko says about her she's got the most colorful mouth on her old railway."

The team got the message as they headed out to do that not knowing when or where the Mountain Demon Chi would reveal itself.
