Monkey Fist: Thanks, Fred. (sits down) Gio, fulfill your destiny as Monkey Prince! Lower Ron, Yori, and Rufus into the lava!
Gio (bows): Yes, Father!
(Gio heads over to the chain crank mechanism, smirking at Chippy who nodded and let go of the crank, moving out of the way for Gio to get into position, and crank downwards, the cage lowering inch by inch)
Ron: I am so sorry, Yori.
Yori: It's okay, Ron...I forgive you...I wish we would get out of here as Sensei told me about Monkey Mystical Powers one time...it would help us...
Ron: I don't know how to do that...But someone else can..(Smiles slowly as realization comes to his mind) I wasn't the only one who absorbed the Mystical Monkey Powers. (Glances at Rufus)
Gio (lowers them, but stops): But...before you die...Any last words, Ron and Yori?
Ron: Yeah. There's something you forgot!
Gio (folds arms): And what would that be?!
Yori: There's someone else beside you, Monkey Fist, and Ron who has mystical monkey powers!
(Rufus sat in a lotus pose, then eyes open with a wide grin, accessing his Mystical Monkey Powers, and burst out of his cage with a yell)
Gio: What the?! (grabs the lotus sword) I'll make him into sushi! (swings at Rufus) Hiya!
(Rufus dodges, jumps, and kicks, hitting Gio with a extreme kick into the head, knocking him over, losing the Lotus Blade to Rufus who grabs it while jumping into the chain crank mechanism, pulling it back by causing Ron & Yori's melting cage to move upwards, and then with a high jump, the Lotus Blade shifts into a long staff, whipping and saving the duo of humans, and landing upon safe ground)
Gio (gets up): NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! (grabs my own katana) No one shall get out of here alive! (powerfully kicks Ron towards the edge)
Ron: No! (Clawing for ground as he feels the heat of the lava, grunting as he pulls up with Yori's help) Thanks...(Sees Rufus holding the Lotus Blade, giving it to him) Rufus! Thanks, little dude! Let's beat them!
Gio: Ninja Monkeys, fight Yori! Fukushima, reappear!
(Fukushima comes out from behind a rock...)
Gio: Fukushima, fight Rufus! I'll fight Ron personally! (pulls out his regular katana) FIGHT ME, RON! Wait...You have a phobia...AND I KNOW WHAT IT IS! Monkey!
Ron: Too old for that! (Moves into pose with the Lotus Blade in hands) Let's do this!
Gio (runs toward him): AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH! (swings katana towards him)
Ron: Hiya! (Blocks Gio's katana; taking deep focus) Take that! (Moves around, swinging the Lotus Blade around with Gio dodging and blocking in return)
Gio: Hiya! You can't beat the master and Chosen One, Ron! (swings sword at him) HIYA! (blocks the Lotus Blade)
Ron: (Dodges and swings the Lotus Blade) No, you're wrong! I am the Chosen One!
Gio: YOU?! HAHAHAHAHAHA! (kicks ron;s groin) NO! FATHER AND I ARE THE MASTERS! WE ARE MASTERS OF MONKEY KUNG FU!
Yori (fights off Monkey Fist): NO! Gio, listen to me, your father is corrupting you! His teachings are corrupt!
Gio: THEY ARE NOT! (punches Ron's face)
Ron: (Groans in slight pain) That hurts! Take this! (Swings the Lotus Blade close to Gio's face, but Gio dodges it by leaping back slightly, and he then swings his katana down to strike at Ron, going for the head, but Ron blocks it fiercely, nearly giving out with a pressure push, and shouts) Ouch! (Looks down to see a bleeding cut on his lower arm, realizing that Gio has cut him)
Gio (grins): HAHAHAHAHAHA! You're nothing but a weak and spineless fool, Stoppable! (punches his stomach)
Rufus (notices remote to open the lair's exit door sticking out of the back of Gio's pocket) Uh huh...(Translation: Must open the lair door!) (Jumps up and pushes the button)
(The steel lair door opens, revealing Sensei and a whole lot of ninja students) Sensei: Help our friends! I shall stop Gio! (Moves swiftly and fiercely which is surprisingly shocking, considering his age, revealing a sword to block Gio's katana from going for Ron's head again) Enough of this, Gio! You have gone too far!
Gio (jumps over the group and runs outside the tunnel passageway) YOU'LL NEVER CATCH ME! (runs out into the snow)
Monkey Fist (pulls out a katana): Stoppable, leave my son alone and GIVE ME THAT LOTUS BLADE!
Ron: No way, Monkey Fist! (Gets up determinedly despite his bruises, holding up the Lotus Blade, and blocks Monkey Fist's katana from swinging at him)
Monkey Fist: MONKEY! MONKEY! MONKEY!
Ron: I told you, that's getting old! Take this! (Moves around craftily, and swings the Lotus Blade, the smooth side hitting Monkey Fist's side)
Monkey Fist: OW! (falls over) No...fair...(bites Ron's left foot)
Ron: Ow, oww! (Kicks Monkey Fist off from his foot) Eew! I got monkey mutant germs! (Notices that his kick knocked Monkey Fist out unconscious, slightly relieved to see that he's breathing, not wanting a death on his conscience)
Fred: Cheeee! Coooooo! (Translation: NO ONE HURTS OUR MASTER! Let's attack Ron like Bobo the Chimp from his summer camp trauma!)
(The other monkeys chatter and howl in agreement, rushing toward Ron who widened his eyes, realizing that he has pissed off Monkey Fist's pets/minions, but other students came to his rescue, kicking, punching, thumping the monkeys out unconscious)
Yori: Where's Sensei? (Ron looks around, and then sees the exit passageway)
Ron: He's after Gio!
(Outside, Gio fled the mountain through the snowy area with Fukushima...)
Gio: Fukushima, you've got to get out of here! You will get prosecuted, but not by my reasons. Go, flee! I got this! Thanks for working with my father and I!
Fukushima: You're welcome, Gio! And your bag's nearby around here somewhere! (Nods and bows before leaving into a swift and hasty run)
Gio (opens sack, pulling out a red battle ninja outfit, similar to the one from the live-action Mulan movie promo pictures): It's battle time...(sighs) Gio...you can do this. You are a Fiske! (gets behind a tree, and takes off black ninja outfit) And now...(puts on red ninja battle outfit and ties on black belt at the waist) Now, to wait...
(Suddenly, in a surprise twist, a spirit suddenly appears...but not just any spirit...it was Gio's mother, Elizabeth Fiske. She wore a brown suit jacket, a grey shirt, brown pants, and high heel shows. She had blonde hair and she was smiling upon seeing her teenage son...)
Gio: What the? (finishes putting outfit on) M-m-mother? (walks closer) I...thought you died!
Elizabeth: (Smiles and nods sadly) Hello, Gio..I am dead, yes, but right now, I am a spirit. You are troubled, my little imp.
Gio: Troubled? Mother...I am. I can't beat an army of ninja students!
Elizabeth: Gio, I know you barely remember me besides pictures, but I protected you that day. I made your father promise to raise you to be a great, wonderful man, and I have watched you grow up...You look so much like your father...He's proud of you, and he knows that you have potential to be a villain of your choosing like how he has, and I supported him even if he knew that I was neutral.
You are destined to belong to the Fiske bloodline, and that will never fail as long as you find your path. Remember who you are, Gio, and know that I will always love you no matter what.
Gio (Cries and hugs her): Mother...please don't go...I really don't want to live without a mother...
Elizabeth: I know, my little imp. I am sad to go, but I must leave. And even if that Ron boy has betrayed you, he was right about one thing. If you truly deserve to know what happened that day, I wouldn't blame you if you search for it in your memories. It hurts me to say anything about that day, but know this, IT WASN'T YOUR FATHER'S NOR YOUR FAULT!
Gio (sniffs): G-Goodbye, Mother...
Elizabeth: I love you, Gio, and please tell your father that I love him too. I want him to be happy even if love finds him again. Goodbye, my little imp. Never forget who you are. (Disappears with a soft smile and a final caress upon Gio's cheek)
Gio (sheds a tear): I must...I must fight...(gets out katana) No turning back now...(comes out from behind tree)
Sensei: (Comes out into the snowy landscape, searching for Gio until he saw him coming out from behind a tree) Gio. Since this is clearly out of school grounds, I am now able to fight you.
Gio: Sensei! Father told me an interesting story! Is it true that at age 14, my father was a student at your school?!
Sensei: Yes, he was. Your father excelled well, and then he became too well, worrying me, and making other students gossip. When I had to be involved, I was forced to expel him after he was stealing forbidden high-level books without asking permission. I had never saw him again until today, changed from the student I used to remember.
Gio (bursts into laughter): That's a lie! Father told me that you expelled him, and kept him from his black belt, and the Lotus Blade out of spite! He worked hard to earn it, and you ditched him! Now, I will finish the job!
Sensei (sighs): Your father brainwashed you...
(The students suddenly appear next to Sensei, along with Yori and Ron...)
Sensei: Stoppable-san, try to settle this without fighting first.
Ron: Gio...
Gio: Get back, Stoppable! (Holds Out katana)
Ron: Man, I just wanna talk to you. Put the sword down...
Gio: No! You put down the Lotus Blade!
Ron: Shut up! Look, you may think that your father wanted all of this, but what about you? You aren't your father. Please, Gio, remember the fun times we had! The times you helped me out? The times we shared jokes and hung out with Yori? I may not know what happened to your mother, but she would want you to choose your path, not be forced by anything, even your father!
Gio: Actually, Stoppable, I just saw my mother as a spirit form for a visit, and she just told me that she wants me to follow the Fiske bloodline! My father has provided everything from himself over the years including food and all the luxuries I have access to which others would just would beg to have for one day!
And those nice things I did for you and Yori?! Those are all lies because I was just trying to lead you into a false sense of security! I will get that Lotus blade if it's the last thing I do!
Ron: (Exhales) I am sorry, Sensei. He's too stubborn...
Sensei: Then it's up to me. You won't have the Lotus Blade when I am here to fight you, Gio.
Rei: Sensei, let us fight him first! You are very old, and we are very concerned for your well-being!
Sensei: (Sighs before opening his eyes in resigned weariness) Do it. (Students hear the command, and then turn to face Gio, some having katanas while others having staffs, chuck-chucks, etc, and they charged forward)
(Warning: The following action scene has been rated PG-13 due to death, perilous action sequences, and blood. Discretion is advised...)
(Gio, now wearing his red ninja/battle outfit just like the live action version of Mulan from the upcoming film, charged towards the students in slow motion...)
