Chapter 5: New Partner In Crime
Valmont was kneeling down to his friend Slate to ask him for help in retrieving Shendu's Tailsmans.
"Please Slate" begged Valmont, "I need your help to retrieve the Tailsmans."
"Very well" conceded Slate, "tell you what. I will give you the very same armor I am using. Therefore you will have the power to not only squash Jackie Chan but also those Titans as well. I hope you will be a better partner than Robin was."
"Thank you" replied Valmont in an excited voice, "I will do my best to find the Tailsmans for you."
"Yes" said Slate, "and take your Enforcers with you. They will be your back up in case of any emergencys."
"But how would I find the Tailsmans?" asked Valmont as Slate's robots were putting on the new armor for Valmont.
"That will be left for Jinx to do" smiled Slate, "Jinx! Get in here!"
Jinx enters the room with a strange scepter with a skull on the top.
"This may help you find those Tailsmans you have been talking about" said Jinx as she carefully handed Valmont the scepter.
"Can this also find anyother magical device?" asked Valmont.
"Apparently yes" smiled Jinx.
"How do I know if it will work?" asked Valmont.
"Just hold the top of the scepter" said Jinx.
Valmont does as what he was told. The skull on the scepter then had red eyes glowing as it was pointing in the direction of the Wind Amulet.
"This works just like Shendu's Tailsman finder" smiled Valmont, "I'll take it."
"Good" said Slate, "now take your Enforcers and go find those Tailsmans."
--------
Meanwhile at the local pizza resturant downtown, Jackie Chan was still disturb that his niece had brought Shendu's Tailsmans into the picture. He was still angry at Jade and was holding the bag she brought the Tailsmans. The Titans were also there waiting for the pizza that they ordered.
"I can't believe you would do something like this" said Jackie to Jade.
"But Jackie" said Jade, "I thought you needed help against this Slate character."
"Yeah give her a break" said Beast Boy.
"Give her a break?!" cried Jackie, "She brought those Tailsmans with her. Slate's robotic ninjas could have retrieved those Tailsmans."
While Jackie and Beast Boy were arguing about Jade and the Tailsmans, they were unaware that Valmont and his Enforcers were right outside of the resturant. Valmont's new scepter pointed in the direction to the east of the resturant.
"Those Tailsmans are inside" smiled Valmont, "time to show off my new armor to Jackie Chan and make him pay."
"Uh, big V" said Finn, "don't you think we should join you?"
"Very well then" said Valmont, "perhaps you can distract those Titans."
"You mean us?!" cried Ratso in an astounished voice, "They'll tear us apart!"
"Stop being such a coward and go" said Valmont.
The four Enforcers entered the pizza resturant. Jackie and Beast Boy were still unaware of their presense while they were still arguing.
"Uh, Jackie" said Jade as she was pulling on her uncle's sleaves.
"What is it?" asked Jackie.
Jade pointed to the door of the resturant as Jackie got her attention. He was shocked to see the Dark Hand right in front of the door.
"Quickly hide" said Jackie as he gave the bag of Tailsmans to Jade, "take the Tailsmans too."
Meanwhile, the four Enforcers, Hak Foo, Finn, Ratso and Chow were pushing their way through the crowd of people waiting for their table.
"I'm sorry, but you need to sign up at the door" said the manager as he blocked their path.
"Hak Foo, would you do the honors?" asked Finn.
"Hak Foo is a raging ram!" cried Hak Foo as he rammed his head at the manager, knocking the manager unconcious. The crowd of people paniced and fled the resturant. But this alerted the other Titans in the next room.
"Hey look" pointed Chow at one of the corners of the resturant, "isn't that Chan behind that table?"
"How about some pizza to go with your order?" said Jackie as he threw an entire hot pizza at Chow's face. Chow could feel the pain and the heat of the hot cheese.
"Ahh!" cried Chow, "Get this off of me!"
Hak Foo then dumped some water on Chow to cool off the hot cheese. But Chow was still a mess.
"Thanks" said Chow, "I think."
Then there was another blast in the resturant. The smoke cleared to reveal Valmont in his new suit.
"So, Valmont" said Jackie, "long time no see? Did you get a hair cut or something like that?"
"Not quick Chan" said Valmont. Valmont pointed his new thermal detonator at Jackie. Jackie could see a red laser coming out.
"Say good night Chan" as Valmont gave an evil smile.
Jade noticed that her uncle was endanger. So she quickly took out the Dragon Blast Tailsman and pointed it at Valmont. The Dragon Blast then hit Valmont, saving her uncle from certain doom. But the Dragon Blast only did minor damage. The skull on the scepter that was next to Valmont then had glowing red eyes like before.
"It's those Tailsmans!" said Valmont, "Get them!"
The three remaining Enforcers, Finn, Ratso and Hak Foo were slowly approaching Jade. Beast Boy was the first one to notice this, so he turned himself into a rhino and rammed the three Enforcers into the wall. But Hak Foo managed to grab Beast Boy and shove him aside. But the three remaining Enforcers did not notice the rest of the Titans were also present.
"Hey did you miss me?" asked Cyborg to Hak Foo.
"Hak Foo is a raging bull!" replied Hak Foo as he was about to ram into Cyborg. But Raven threw a table with her powers at Hak Foo, knocking Hak Foo unconcious.
"Uh, Big V, we could use some help here?" said Finn in a nervous mood.
"I'm busy" replied Valmont as he was fighting Jackie Chan.
But while Jackie was fighting Valmont in his new armor, his cell phone rang. He then turned it on.
"Hello?" asked Jackie.
"Uncle has found something very important" replied Uncle.
"I'm sort of busy right now" said Jackie as he was trying to dodge Valmont's attacks.
"But my research indicates that there are four more of these sacred amulets" as Uncle continued.
"Four more amulets?!" cried Jackie as he was still fighting Valmont, "What are they?"
"Uncle can not tell you at this moument" replied Uncle.
"We'll get back to the tower later" said Jackie.
"One more thing" said Uncle as Jackie was about to turn off his cell phone, "you are a bad influence on Jade. You should have not brung her to this place."
"Sorry" said Jackie, "I'll talk to you later!"
Valmont's Enforcers ran like cowards. Valmont could tell that Slate would not be pleased.
"Sorry Chan" smiled Valmont, "but I got to run!"
Then Valmont took out a flash grenade that Slate gave him as a weapon. The grenade temporary blinded Jackie and the Titans. But when everything was clear Valmont and his Enforcers were done. And the resturant was left in a big mess. Captain Black was just stepping out of his car when he entered the resturant.
"Did I miss something?" asked Captain Black as he entered the now ruined resturant.
"Yeah" said Robin, "your old friend Valmont dropped by."
"He was after the Tailsmans" said Jackie.
"I see" said Captain Black, "the city can repair these damages. But we need to head back to the tower. Uncle has found something that could provide us if there are other sacred amulets like the Wind Amulet."
---------
"So you didn't bring the Tailsmans?" said Slate.
"Well, your scepter works find" said Valmont, "but it appears that Chan has once again prevented me from retrieving those blasted Tailsmans."
"And I see your armor has been damaged" said Slate.
"Yes" replied Valmont, "that too."
"Don't worry" said Slate, "I have something else in mind."
"You mean there are more of these so-called sacred amulets?" asked Valmont.
"Yes" said Slate as he handed Valmont the book he was reading, "take a look at this. We may not even need those blasted Tailsmans since we may fail to retrieve them. But the amulets are another story."
Valmont was kneeling down to his friend Slate to ask him for help in retrieving Shendu's Tailsmans.
"Please Slate" begged Valmont, "I need your help to retrieve the Tailsmans."
"Very well" conceded Slate, "tell you what. I will give you the very same armor I am using. Therefore you will have the power to not only squash Jackie Chan but also those Titans as well. I hope you will be a better partner than Robin was."
