Chapter 3 Chorh-Gom Prison Escape! The Evil Alliance!
Far away from the Valley of Peace, two rhino guards were standing outside of Chorh-Gom Prison in the snowy mountains. There were one hundred guards in the prison with one prisoner. Tai Lung's arms were out stretch, chained to a large boulder on his wrists, having him kneel down. He was wearing a restrained tortoise shell. There were a lot of acupuncture needles in crucial places of the snow leopard's back, blocking his chi to have him almost fully immobile. No one has notice that Tai Lung has inserted a feather from Zeng, the Jade Palace Messenger, in the intricate lock. He begins to pick the lock with the feather, using his tail. There were a few clicks and the needles slowly back away from his back.
"…" Tai Lung breathes. He can feel his strength returning to him. The needles began flying everywhere and the restraining tortoise shell was destroyed as everyone heard it.
"Oh, shit!" Vachir, a rhino with a gold horn, cursed.
"What's happening?" Zeng, a duck, asked. He looks down and swallows hard.
"To your battle stations!" Vachir yelled. "Go! Go! Go!"
Tai took a knee, trying to stand up. But the boulders were giving Tai Lung tough time to stand up. Three crossbows landed near him, one in the front and two in the back. He can see the next one coming to his right. Tai Lung leans to the left and the crossbow destroys his restraint. The snow leopard wasted no time as he freed his left wrist, looking up above him.
"Tai Lung is free!" Zeng screams in shocked. "I must warn Shifu!"
"You're not going anywhere!" Vachir shouted, grabbing Zeng by the neck. "And neither is he! Bring it up!"
Tai Lung turns around and sees another crossbow coming towards him. He stops it with his palm and kicks it back, destroying the archer. Tai Lung throws the other four crossbows in the air and kicks them through the air, sending all four of them in different directions. The crossbows lands at the wall of the cave, making his escape to the carrier. Tai Lung crack the bones in his neck and jumps backward on the crossbow and flies to the crossbows. He jumps onto the first one before running on the wall to get to the second arrow.
"He's coming this way!" Zeng gasps.
"He won't get far." Vachir growled. "Archers!"
Every single rhino on the bridge fired. Tai Lung lands on the third arrow and sees the wave of arrows coming fast. He jumps onto the last crossbow and lands underneath the floorboards. One of the rhinos cuts the chain and watches it fall. Him and his friend chuckled before Tai Lung came through the hole, kicking them both in the head. He lands backwards before hitting the crank and grabbing the chain as he jumps off the platform, flies up to the stone wall and lands on the second bridge. All of a sudden, a large muscular man jumps from the darkness and lands in front of an attacking rhino. The rhino and Tai Lung were startled by the man's appearance. The man has eight pack abs and was wearing black pants. His crimson red eyes stares at the rhino, running his fingers through his short black hair.
"Heh." The man snickered.
The rhino attacks as the man blocks with his foot and threw several jabs in the rhino guts before throwing him back into the guards. Tai Lung and the man continues their attack, making their way to the third bridge. Two rhino guards closes the door quickly, hoping it would hold them. Tai Lung blast through the door and catches two rhino guards by their horns and did a quick spin in the air several times. The mysterious man ran past Tai Lung quickly. He disarms a rhino's ax and chops off the rhino's right arm. A second rhino charges at the man and swung his axe, knocking the rhino high into the air with a spike ball in his mouth. It was the snow leopard's turn to run past the man. Tai Lung catches the rhino and threw him into the doorway, climbs on the wall and jumps onto the last bridge. The mysterious man was running up the wall and landed next to Tai Lung.
Blocking the door that led to the outside of the prison, the remaining rhino guards readied themselves. Vachir snorted, Tai Lung growled and Zeng quacks nervously.
"We're so dead." Zeng whimpered.
"Not yet we're not." Vachir snorted. "Now!"
A guard shot a fire arrow high to the ceiling and the dynamite exploded. The mysterious man wasted no time running towards the edge of the bridge. He dodges huge chunks of stone and leaps high into the air. The mysterious man landed in a circle of the guards with their weapons pointing at him. Vachir gloats as he turns around to face the man.
"I don't know who you are," Vachir said, "but you're going to die with Tai Lung."
The man didn't say anything as he points behind Vachir. Vachir looks behind him and gasps. Tai Lung was flying towards them with another patch of dynamite.
"Can we run now?" Zeng asked.
"Yes." Vachir whimpered in fear, his pride finally crushed.
Tai Lung threw the dynamite at them and exploded. The rhinos were sent flying all over the way that led into the prison as the door was destroyed. Zeng landed on his stomach, coughing smoke out of his beak. Something small in the shape of a gold horn landed besides him. Tai Lung grabs Zeng by the neck to his eye level.
"Aahh." Tai Lung sighs. "I'm glad Shifu has sent you." The snow leopard slowly pets the frighten goose.
The mysterious man lands in front of them. "Otherwise, I would have kill you, goose." The man chuckled.
"Who are you or what are you?" Tai Lung asked.
"I am Zhao Chan." Zhao stated. "I'm a human from the human world."
"Are you here to stop me?" Tai Lung growled, eying the human. "You look strong."
"Heh heh." Zhao snickered. "Hell no."
"Why are you here helping Tai Lung?" Zeng asked, shaking.
"I have come to claim the ancient power of the Eye of the Tiger." Zhao growled. "The crystal will be mine."
"A crystal?" Tai Lung repeated.
"Yes." Zhado answered. "And if we work together, you will have what is rightfully yours."
"Fine." Tai Lung said, before looking at Zeng. "Tell them, the real Dragon Warrior is coming home."
Zeng nodded his head, shaking, before Tai Lung releases him. As Zeng flew off, he knew that the Valley of Peace is in grave danger.
