The Demons' Revenge
Chapter 9: An Old Friend, and Enemy
At Jade's school, one morning at recess...
"It's true," Jade exclaimed, "There are such things as demons."
"Just stop it Jade," the people around her told her, "We didn't believe you before, and we won't believe you now."
The group around Jade then stood up from the bench in the playground, and walked away.
"Hmph!" Jade said glumly, "If only I had more friends who knew I was telling the truth."
After school, at Uncle's shop...
"Jade tell Uncle to come here," Jackie said.
"What's wrong Jackie?" Jade asked.
"I think that the locator has found Daolon Wong!" Tohru told her, throwing a tentacle in the pot in front of him, "There is something forming in the pot that I'm using to locate him."
'Uncle!" Jade yelled, "Come in here."
"Uncle busy!" Uncle shouted from the other room.
"We think we've found Daolon Wong, though" Jade yelled again, and Uncle rushed in.
"Jade!" Jackie told her, "I told you to get Uncle, not to scream to him."
"It did the job, didn't it Jackie?" Jade said with a smile on her face.
They all gathered around the pot, staring inside. Soon, a green cloud formed on top of the pot. Soon they saw Daolon Wong, heading up to the Red Sox Stadium in Boston.
"Hsi Wu!" Jade whispered.
The Chans were able to get a Section 13 jet to Boston very quickly, but as soon as they were able to get to the stadium, they saw that Daolon Wong had released the Sky Demon. He soared above the sky, and as soon as he saw Jade, he swooped down.
"Why, hello Jade!" Hsi Wu said slyly, "Long time no see."
"Aww! Too bad that we couldn't have kept it that way." Jade said.
"I'm afraid you'll have to get used to me, because I'll be out and about for a long time." Hsi Wu replied, and took to the sky again.
"We've got to put him back in his portal." Jackie said.
"That won't be as easy as it seems." Daolon Wong said, appearing out of thin air, and giving everyone a shock.
"It appears that once again, Daolon Wong, you've been deserted by your demon friend." Jade told him.
"I wouldn't say so." he replied, "You see, me and that demon have an agreement. You'll find out soon enough."
And with that remark, Daolon Wong disappeared once again.
"Jackie! We must go!" Uncle said, "My new tracker can detect demon chi while he is still close enough! Hsi Wu is heading back to San Francisco."
Everyone got back in the jet that they came in, and went back to Uncle's shop. However, when they went in, they found a big surprise.
"AYAA!" Uncle screamed, looking around, "Uncle's shop is in huge disarray! Someone has broken in!"
"Who would do this though?" Jackie and Tohru asked.
"Daolon Wong!" Jade said, "He must have convinced Hsi Wu to break in. That is why he was heading back here."
"We must know what is gone, if we are to know what Daolon Wong is up to." Uncle said, "Everyone must search, and tell me every book in Uncle's shop. If any book is missing, I will know."
For hours they searched, and searched, and in time, Uncle knew what was missing.
"AYAA! Hsi Wu has stolen Advanced Chi Magic. Very powerful. Even Uncle does not know those spells." Uncle exclaimed, "Daolon Wong will become very powerful if he gets that book."
"Sensei," Tohru said, "The locator has found Daolon Wong again. Him and Hsi Wu have met so that Wong may take the book. They are meeting at the docks."
"Then that is where we must go." Jackie said.
Later at the docks in San Francisco...
"We must split up and find the demon and Wong." Jackie said quietly to Uncle and Tohru, "One of us will find them."
"We each have a flute," Tohru said, "So when we find Hsi Wu, we will be able to banish him."
"Roger!" Jade answered.
"Jade! No!" Jackie moaned, "What are you doing here?"
"Banishing Sky Demons." Jade answered again.
"Well, stay here." Jackie said, "If you stay here, you won't be able to get in trouble."
And as soon as he finished talking, Jackie, Uncle, and Tohru split up, and left Jade alone by the car that they had come with.
"He never learns." Jade said to herself, and took off. Unfortunately, she was the first one to find the demon. Jade sat behind a crate, and listened to the chi wizard, and the demon.
"I hope that you enjoy the book." Hsi Wu said, "Take it as a thank you gift for releasing me."
"I'm sure I will." Daolon Wong said, "Well, now that I got what I've come from, I will take my leave."
Daolon Wong chanted his chi spell, and disappeared.
"Gotcha!" Jade said, and leaped up from behind the crate.
"What?" the demon asked, surprised, "Oh, Jade, how nice of you to come and meet me!"
"Too bad that this little visit won't last long." Jade exclaimed, and put her flute to her mouth. She hoped that those flute lessons she took would pay off, and they certainly would.
"Now Jade! We don't want to do anything hasty, now do we?" Hsi Wu told her, hoping that she would not play her flute. "Remember, I'm the one of the only ones that believe you. I know that you're telling the truth. We could be the best of friends!"
"Pfft! Who needs enemies when I have a friend like you." Jade said, and began playing. Luckily, she had grabbed the flute from Uncle's shop, and he had already cast a chi spell on it, so it took full effect immediately.
"This won't happen again to me!" Hsi Wu yelled, and began to fly into the sky, full of the night stars. However, he did not fly far enough fast enough, so the magical flute banished him again. The Sky Demon was rushed through the air, back to Boston, and the Red Sox Stadium.
"Jade!" Jackie shouted, at began running toward her, "I told you to stay at the car! Oh well, at least you banished Hsi Wu."
"AYAA! Daolon Wong still has the book full of advanced chi spells. He will be very powerful!" Uncle said, worrying.
"Don't worry Sensei," Tohru told Uncle, "We will be able to learn new spells ourselves, and Daolon Wong will not be able to defeat us."
"Plus," Jade started to say happily, "There are only four demons left. The Anti Uncle will never be able to come out on top!"
