Episode 27 – Lee VS T3 Part 3 aka The Final Battle
Lee laid next to his rod, hopelessly, as he stared at the cyborg of doom getting closer to him, slowly. "I want to enjoy every last second of your pain, before I finish you off," he said as he came closer to Lee.
Lee turned away at the slight thought of not avenging the death of his loved ones. Then he saw his golden rod glowing brightly, setting off a signal of energy. It wasn't a rod anymore, but energy shaped into a rod. Then a flashback appeared in Lee's mind.
In the reminiscence, there was a young Lee in his early teenage years and his old sensei, Ken Mikai Yoshi. "Once you harness true power, this rod will become more than a weapon. It will become one with you, giving you an energy boost and the control of the wind," said the wise sensei. "Have you ever accomplish it, sensei?" asked the curious teen. "No, I never had the potential to wield such a power. I' am only the messenger of the rod. The rod truly belongs to you (hands the rod over). I have a feeling you could do it," he said as he patted Lee's head.
Lee shook himself out of it. He made a reach for the rod slowly. T3, not aware of anything, because he was fully occupied on how he should finish off his opponent, walked closer, until he was in arm's length to Lee's body. Lee's arm stretched as it came forward to the rod. T3 saw Lee and stared at what he was reaching for. "What is that?" he demanded to know. The energy broke apart into little pieces and came into Lee's hand. Lee squeezed them causing wind to gather all over the place. Dust on the ground blinded T3 as it was sweeped up by the wind. He covered his eyes, as he scanned in his head to find the source of the gust that came all of a sudden. The wind calmed down several seconds later.
T3 opened his eyes and yelled "What the hell is this? Where is he?" A wind blew past by him and Lee suddenly appeared behind him. Lee still looked pretty much the same, except his cuts and bruises mysteriously disappeared. "I'm over here," he whispered in T3's ear. T3 turned around and leaped back in surprise. "Why couldn't I sense your energy?" he asked. "Well for one thing, I'm not a cybernetic freak like you, where your energy can't be sensed either. I'm well... one with the wind," Lee explained, "Let me show you."
Suddenly his body disintegrated and the wind was blown past T3. Lee reappeared behind T3 once again. T3 was looking around not knowing where he was. Lee formed wind at the palm of his hands and used it to push T3 away. T3 went flying up and crashing to the ground hard.
"Do you fear my powers now, you pile of used and rejected hunk of junk?" Lee said boldly. "Fine, see if you can handle this. No human will ever stop my reign," he yelled. Once again his whole body glowed. Small shadow creatures (similar looking to the ones in Burning City) with needled fists, crawled out T3's glowing body. A total of ten of them appeared before Lee's eyes. They pound their fists in a threatening way, trying to scare Lee. He just stared at them, dully in response. Feeling disrespected, one ran forward, recklessly, and punched Lee in the crotch. Lee just stared at him with no feeling of pain, whatsoever. Lee slammed his fist down to the shadow creature, but it just went through. "Huh?" Lee asked confusedly. It jumped up to try to kick his jaw with a bicycle kick, but before it touched him, Lee disappeared into the wind and went away. He reappeared high up in the air, charging a ki ball. Instead of an energy ki ball, the blast was made with wind. He threw one down and 9 more with 1 blast per shadow monster. All of the monsters absorbed the wind ball. Their size tripled after his attack.
The one, who attempted to hurt Lee before, jumped high up and punched Lee's face. Lee stepped back a little rubbing his face. "Who knew a small attack like that could change their strength tremendously, when they absorb it. It practically multiplied their strengths by 10," he said.
Then 9 of the ones in the bottom flew up to the other one and merged with it. It grew to a very big size with needled fists and shoulders. "Wow," Lee commented, as it ran forward to him. It came and punched him, but Lee caught the punch with two hands. The fist crashed down on him, but Lee already disappeared. Lee reappeared near its face and punched it hard. The monster barely felt it. He went for a kick, but it held his leg and threw him down. The wind cushioned Lee's landing, preventing any damage. "That monster could really begin to hurt me, if I keep this up. I have to use its weaknesses to my advantage, but my punches barely have any effect, so there would be no point outspeeding it," he thought and looked up. The monster grew big little by little by sucking up the small traces of energy in the air, greedily. "I got it!" Lee said.
Lee opened his hand and formed a wind shaped rod. He made it thick enough for the monster to notice it. The monster turned around to see it. "Want this, boy," he said in a voice like talking to a dog. The huge mindless shadow creature nodded in delight. Lee threw it toward T3. The monster rushed at it, delightfully. T3 got out of the way completely by flying quickly up in the air. The monster caught with his hand and put it in his body. His body, as big as it already was, tripled in size. "Your plan was to let my own monster crush me. That is the most pathetic idea I ever heard," T3 said with a smile. Lee smiled back as a sudden explosion appeared where the shadow figure stood.
T3 looked surprise as he saw the creature he summoned, blown into smithereens. "Who knew a little firecracker could do much damage," he said. Then he formed a small pebble of energy and threw it on the ground, where T3 was standing over in the air. A big explosion marked the land, giving it a huge crater. "If you can call that little, that is," he said with a smile.
T3 stared at Lee furiously. Lee turned around to see if the monster's corpse still lied there. As he turned to see, he noticed a rip in the mid air of the darkness, instead. There was a big container that looked like an oversized propane tank inside the rip of the darkness. "What's that?" Lee asked. T3 flew down quickly to partially block the view of the tank from Lee's eyes. "None of your concern. I'm getting really sick of you, right about now. Darkness Chain!" he yelled. Three black rays sprung out his palm, wrapping around each other, and grabbed Lee's neck.
Lee's body weakened little by little. "What is this?" he asked in a weakened voice. "It is a chain that transfers your energy over to mine. Not only that, but it makes your thoughts more negative, giving you no hope of winning whatsoever," he said with a laugh. His body grew bigger little by little, with his strength increasing at the same rate.
"I can't let him win./ You will fall just like everyone else./ No, I can't let the Earth down./ No matter how hard you train, what transformations you unlock, you cannot defeat a creation, whose whole purpose in life is to rule the world, when only it was programmed to raise havoc./ I owe it to everybody to at least try, I must fight back while I still have the energy to do so./ You are a nothing but a mere weakling. You are nobody. You are not the wind, but a small particle of dust trapped in the wind's wrath./ NO, I'AM MORE THAN THAT," he said, yelling his last line.
He grabbed the chain and ripped it off his neck with all his strength. Then he used a wind wave to shatter the dark rays into pieces, collecting his remaining energy that was in the chain. His body felt a little bit better, and he stood up straight. T3 threw down the small piece of chain in his hand onto the ground. All the broken pieces of the "Darkness Chain" went into the ground, healing it a bit.
"No matter, now I have gathered enough energy to end your useless life," T3 said. Lee breathing heavily said "The pain you caused everyone will now end. In memory of everyone you hurt, I will destroy you." "Haven't you said something like that before? Give it up, you have no chance against me," T3 said.
"Dead End!" T3 yelled and threw a deadly, black, huge ki ball toward Lee. It went toward to him, quickly and Lee caught it. It pushed him back, greatly, scraping his feet on the disturbed ground. Lee tried to push it back, but at his state he couldn't do it. Lee was about to disappear, but he saw Trunks behind him, so he continued struggling. "Do the barrier breaking move, I last taught you," said a voice. "Sensei," Lee said in a surprised voice, while struggling with the massive ki ball, "But you never completely taught me it. I can't do it." "Was I the sensei of a quitter or was I the sensei of a fierce warrior. Believe in my words, believe in yourself, and most importantly believe in what you are capable of. Unleash the rage, you have for the Earth when it is in need," shouted his sensei.
The voice of his sensei faded, leaving Lee alone once again. He was still struggling, trying to push back. "Let's do it, then" he yelled, "Raging Wolf!" His right fist glowed red as it punched the dark ki ball. It pressed against the surface of it, hard. Soon, the fist went in and through the "Dead End", with his whole body following through.
The ki ball was destroyed, as Lee went out of it and stood on one knee breathing, heavily with his hand still glowing. "Impressive! You still have no chance against be though," he said. Lee glared at him with dangerous eyes. He brought his left hand up and suddenly it gave off a bright glow, too. Lee waved the back of his hand and a wind wave formed and gave a cut to T3's face. He held it in pain, as Lee ran quickly to T3, in a style that looks like a wolf chasing down its prey. Then a combination of punches was released to his body and face. Each punch struck him hard, having the potential to break him apart. The last blow pushed him back, closer to the tank. "(Coughing out blood, while holding his chest in pain) It doesn't matter if you kill me or not, you will stay in Burning City forever. The longer you stay here, the more dull your senses and strength will become. And as long as Burning City exists, it will recreate my existence as a stronger cyborg," he yelled.
Lee's eyes turned back to normal. He turned to look at Trunks and saw that he was getting worse. He turned back around and said "I guess this is a good-bye for now then. Because frankly, every time you'll come back, I will beat you down badly as today. I won't give you the chance to live." Lee pulled out one strand of his white hair. It came back to normal (meaning black). Lee powered up his aura, giving that strand of hair life again. It came back to the color of white and glowed brightly. Lee threw it like a dart, toward to T3 to finish off his remaining life energy he has left. T3 saw it coming and dodged it by moving his body to a complete 90 degrees. He smiled as it ran past him. T3 suddenly turned around in a worried look. He saw the strand of hair, pierced through the tank. "Nooooo!" T3 yelled. A big explosion occurred and destroyed everyone in Burning City. Lee dashed to grab Trunks and put him on his shoulders. The flame burnt Lee's already in pain body and destroyed the round shield Trunks was in. All of the shadow creatures and T3 were destroyed.
After the explosion, Burning City was gone. Lee stood there in New West City staring at the sun, as small flames dropped from the sky. Trunks was still on his shoulders as Lee barely stood up straight.
"Thank you, sensei" said Lee in a low voice with his last words, before he spat out a waterfall of blood built up in his body. He collapsed to the ground with Trunks on him. His powdery white hair came back to normal. There, the two bodies lied unconscious, without any hope of anybody finding them.
