Viva Las Jackie

Jackie, Uncle Jade, Camille, Mira and Cyndi were driving in a company car that was owned by Long Enterprises and there was room enough for all five of them. This time, the team were talking about the Locator Spell in which Uncle had used to discover the location of the Tiger Talisman Power.

"Well it turns out Johnathan Long's hunch about Helmut and Ulf's tigress Sasha being the talisman-powered tiger was correct," Jade said.

"The Locator spell showed us that the power was in Vegas and how many white Tigers are found there?" asked Camille.

"Now perhaps we can let Johnathan call in the proper authorities and have them handle this," Jackie said before Uncle promptly dope slapped him, "ow!"

"Are Johnathan Long's security at the Hotel trained to handle Dark Chi Wizards and Shadowkhan Ninjas?" Uncle asked, "Then we must get to Sasha before Forces of Darkness do."

"And since Daolon Wong has a new Dark Chi Warrior and Shadowkhan Ninjas we're gonna need some help so we better stop at the airport," said Camille, "I've arranged for the American Dragon and his friends including Fu Dog."

"You want to bring that mutt into this?" Mira asked.

"Unfortunately, yes," Camille said, "Besides I want a word with him and Jake did say something about him getting barf bags and selling them to magical elevator users. Perhaps he and I could put that into place or maybe we could do something here in Vegas. Ow!"

"We are not here for business ventures!" Uncle said after dope slapping Camille, "We are here to find the Tiger Talisman Power."

"Duh which is why I called in Jake Long," Camille said, "If all else fails we may need him to make a phone call to his father to get Helmut and Ulf to let us borrow Sasha."

"Maybe I should come too," said Cyndi, "I might be able to speak to Sasha and convince her that we are not a threat. I'm great with animals considering I was born with the ability to understand them."

"And that's why we invited you along with us but why am I here again?" Mira asked. "Shouldn't I be in Section 13 or protecting Tohru by now?"

"We need you because we may have to subdue the forces of darkness and short out the muscle gear Arcanon is using with your shock pistol," said Camille as Jackie was riding shot gun with the driver of the vehicle.

"Well can we please hurry up," said Jade, "It smells in here."

"Blame Uncle and his locator spell," Mira said. "Why couldn't we just use the seeking device Camille stole from the Dark Hand? Ow!"

"Do not mock the sock," Uncle said after dope slapping Mira, "It is our only hope of finding if Johnathan Long's hunch about the Tiger Talisman Power is true."

After more driving the team arrived in Las Vegas and headed to the airport to pick up Jake Long and company.

"Seriously did you have to use such a smelly locator spell?" Trixie asked as soon as they arrived at the hotel.

"Hey, it's not my fault," Camille retorted, "The Locator spell specifically said that a sock was the required item to find the Tiger Talisman power."

"Camille's right and besides we need to prepare," said Jake, "If Daolon Wong and Lord Arcanon are coming for the Tiger Talisman Power we're going to need all the help we can get if what else Camille said is true."

"What else did she say again?" Spud asked.

"Daolon Wong has a new Dark Chi Powered Warrior and it's basically a duplicate of Hak Fu," Camille said, "Only stronger than before. That's why I still have all the earth sign talisman powers. We're gonna need all the fire power we can get to face him."

"And we will need powerful spells to combat him," Uncle said.

"And to make those spells we will need very rare spell ingredients," said Vivian as she showed up.

"Councilor Vivian," Jake spoke surprised, "What are you doing here? We thought you were helping the Japanese Dragon and his family deal with an earthquake."

"It was only a 4.0," Vivian said, "Anyway I brought some ingredients as well as some spells that the Japanese Dragon and his wife and his in laws have shared and some ingredients for said spells such as eel saliva."

"Uncle will need eel saliva for spell," said Uncle accepting the ingredients, "In the meantime find Sasha."

"Way ahead of you on the eel saliva," said Vivian, "I'm not sure if you know this but the Shiba Clan's been keeping an eye on the Sushi Restaurant that Camille's ancestors on her dad's side of the family own. Turns out the shop makes a good cover for the magical community."

The rest of the team headed off without a word as they went to find Sasha while Camille, Vivian, and Uncle prepared the spells.

At the show Jackie and company were watching Sasha the tiger jumping through hoops of fire.

"Sasha has the heart of a savage predator, but we have tamed her wild nature with years of training, right Ulf," announced Helmut.

"Ya, Helmut, now Sasha is our princess," Ulf announced.

The crowd were enjoying the impressive act of the trained tiger. Jackie and company were also watching, but they were paying more attention to Sasha's eyes, where a faint gleam of the talisman magic was.

"We just found the noble tiger," said Jake as he was holding the seeking device.

"Looks like your dad was right," said Jade, "Did you call him and let him know that he was right."

"Already did so before the show using a portable mirror," Jake said. "And I told him to be ready just incase we need him to convince Helmut and Ulf to let us borrow Sasha."

"You really have gotten better with the planning thing," said Trixie, "Whatever made you think of doing that?"

"My mentor always said that one must have multiple plans and be three steps ahead," said Jake, "Remember the Heist when we were dealing with Pandaras?"

"I remember that," Spud said, "And Camille also said that her family is known for being clever but they never said she was beautiful. Is she taken? Ow!"

"Focus on the mission Spud," snapped Cyndi after dope slapping Spud, "And for the record Camille is taken."

"I like your style," Trixie said to Cyndi upon seeing what she did to Spud.

"Technically this is Uncle's style and I've seen him use it enough," said Cyndi, "But let's continue watching the show."

Soon enough after the show was over the team went to see Helmut and Ulf who were somehow expecting them.

"Ah Mr. Chan and Company," said Helmut, "Johnathan Long said you'd be coming and that it was important."

"It is very important," said Jackie, "It's about your tiger Sasha. We need to borrow her for the time being."

"Yes Johnathan Long told us that was the important bit," said Ulf, "But he didn't tell us exactly why you needed to borrow Sasha. He only said that she'd be in safer hands with you for the time being and that's after he sent us proof at what happened to Royal Medicine after the stables he owned in London."

"So does this mean that you believe us when we say some very dangerous people are out to capture her?" Camille asked.

"We believe you," Helmut said, "Follow us."

The team followed Helmut and Ulf to where Sasha was being kept and they could see that she was well cared for.

"As promised here is Sasha," Ulf said, "But please be gentle with her."

"Don't worry we will," Cyndi said, "We know how much hard work went into training her to preform here in Vegas so we won't let that go down the toilet."

"And Johnathan Long is sure to have a Juggling Bear that can fill in," said Camille as she went to go and get Sasha.

"Well for once this seemed like an easy mission," Jackie said.

"Yeah a bit too easy," Jade pointed out once they had Sasha and Cyndi was already tending to her showing her talent with animals.

"Jade's got a point," said Cyndi, "I thought Sasha would be much harder to handle but she seems to be easy."

"Easy you call the fact that we had to convince a pair of stage magicians to let us borrow Sasha easy?" Jackie asked.

"Jade and Cyndi are right," said Camille, "I've been in this long line of work to know that the forces of darkness are bound to have a plan."

Little did they know that the forces of darkness did have a plan but for the time being it was one that was already being put into place for little did they know they were being followed by a robotic mosquito.

Later on the team met back up at the airport to discuss the travel plans.

"So it looks like we have the noble tiger on hand," Jackie said, "And for once we didn't have to fight Daolon Wong or his minions for it."

"Perhaps but something tells me that this calm was just the beginning," Vivian spoke, "Either way I need to get to the others and give my report not to mention get Jake, Trixie, Spud and Fu Dog home."

"Well it was nice teaming up with you lot," Cyndi said. "Perhaps we can do so again?"

"Something tells me we may need to do so again but for now we should be ready for anything," Jake spoke, "After all grandpa said that one must be cautious for evil tends to find a way."

"Did he really say that?" Jade asked.

"No but it sounds like something he would say," Jake pointed out.

"Your grandfather has a point," said Uncle, "Either way we must get Noble Tiger to safety until Daolon Wong and Lord Arcanon are defeated."

The group agreed as Team Dragon headed back to New York City while the J Team headed back to San Fran with Sasha the Tiger along for the ride.
