Okay, here is the first episode chapter. It's not entirely different, but the new characters do add some new spice to it.

Chapter Five

Drago sat beside Uncle, reading through some books. They were about magic and ancient culture, both fascinated him. He was part demon, so he liked getting to know more of that part. Though, he didn't want to act like one. 'Ever.' He thought Right now, he was researching an ancient shield his father had brought back from Bavaria. He loved helping his father and Uncle in research. It was one of his favorite things to do.

Drago was in his human form at the moment. He looked like a small, Asian boy. As being part demon, he had to hide his true appearance from people, so not to scare them. Uncle had helped train him to change form between the two. Since the store was open, he kept in human form, so as too not spook the customers. He wore his favorite scarf. It was silver colored and had a green bubble in the middle of it. It was his good luck charm, since before he could remember.

He heard the door bell ring. "Drago, go and answer it." Uncle said, not taking his gaze off the books.

Drago nodded. "Yes, Uncle." He closed the book he was reading, and went around the desk. He walked up to the door and pulled it open. There stood a little Asian girl. She had a bunch of luggage, some of them were pink. 'Typical.' He thought. "Hello, who are you?" The girl was silent. Drago looked back to Uncle. "Uncle, there's a girl outside. There's no one else with her."

Uncle looked up at them. "Ahh, that must be your cousin, Jade."

"Cousin?" Drago said. He looked at Jade for a moment. He rushed up and gave her a hug. He pulled back. "It's so nice to finally meet you."

"Nice to meet you too." Jade said. "Could you help bring in my luggage?" She started back and picked up a few bags.

"Sure." Drago said. He went over next to her and picked up the rest. He lifted them easily. He was half demon, so he could lift weights someone of his size usually couldn't. He carried them inside and set them down. He looked at Uncle. "Is it okay if I show Jade my true form, Uncle."

Uncle rubbed his chin, and then nodded. "It is okay for you to do so Drago. She will be staying with us for a year, so she'll find out eventually."

Drago smiled and turned back to Jade. She was wearing a puzzled expression. Drago quickly turned into his true self.

Jade's eyes widened. She reached out and touched his head spikes. "Wow, so your part dragon." She said.

"Actually, part demon." Drago corrected her. "I was found on the doorstep, when I was a baby. I don't know who my parents truly are."

"I'm sorry for that." Jade said.

Drago could see real concern on her face. He waved his hand and smiled. "Oh, don't worry about it." He said cheerfully, so as to lift her spirit. "Jackie's the best dad you could get."

Jade nodded and smiled back. "So, can you breathe fire?"

Drago nodded. "Ya, but dad won't let me do it inside. I might accidentally burn down the store." "That's so cool." Jade said.

Drago couldn't help but laugh. "What's so funny?" Jade asked, but couldn't help and follow along. Eventually they calmed down. He turned back into his human form. He moved over beside the desk and opened his book up.

Uncle pulled on a rope to sound a bell. His father came over to the balcony, after completing his training exercise. "What is it Uncle?" Jackie asked.

Uncle looked up at him. "Jackie. Come. Give Uncle a hug." He stood up and looked like he was going to give father a hug.

Drago's father jumped down from the balcony, while performing a series of aerobatics. Drago hoped he would be as good as his father someday. He went over to Uncle, arms outstretched. "Uncle." He said.

Uncle hit him in the head with two fingers. "You forgot to make coffee this morning. How can Uncle work without coffee? Coffee is the only thing keeping this ancient heart beating. You want dead Uncle. No. Then you make coffee."

Drago tried to hold back his laughter, but it escaped him. He noticed his father looking at him. His laughter stopped. "Sorry, dad." He said.

"One more thing. The university called." Uncle said. "They want you to translate parchments."

"Okay." Jackie said before starting to walk away.

"One more thing." Uncle said, making Jackie stop and look at him. "I cannot read these inscriptions." He picked up the shield. "It is very old writing." He nodded toward Drago. "Although, Drago has discovered that the rock in the middle of the shield is not of Bavarian making."

Jackie looked at Drago. "Is that true?"

"Yes." Drago said. "I thought it was out of place. So, I did some research and there are no records of any such things in Bavaria."

Jackie ruffled his son's hair and smiled. "Good work, Drago." He said.

"Thanks dad." Drago said, smiling up at him.

"One more thing." Uncle said. "Your niece is here." He pointed to Jade.

Jackie looked dumbfounded. "I have a niece?"

"Yes." Uncle said. "Your cousin's daughter from Hong Kong. She is doing poorly there, so she thought she would do better in America with you. She has too stay here for a year with you. So, take care of her. Get acquainted. Drago already has." He picked up the shield. "I'll think I'll go in back. Look at the journals." He walked off.

Jackie looked at Jade. "Hello there." He said. Jade was silent. "Do you speak English?" She cocked her head. "Doesn't speak English." He said softly to himself. He spoke a few words in Chinese. She remained silent.

Just then, three men came in. One of them wore a disco suit and had red hair. Another one was short, Asian, with orange sunglasses. The last one was quite large, with a bandage on his nose.

Jackie moved behind the desk. "Welcome to Uncle's Rare Finds. How may I help you?"

The red headed man stepped forward. "Are you Jackie Chan, the archeologist?"

"Oh, I dabble in a bit." Jackie said, waving his hand to signify its unimportance.

"Yes. It has come to the attention that you have dabbled in the field and in the possession of a Bavarian shield. My extremely wealthy employer would very much like to purchase said shield." The red haired man said.

"Sorry, I have already donated it to the museum." Jackie said, eying them.

"It would be in your best interests if you reconsider." The red headed man said. He nodded towards the other ones. The smallest one knocked over a vase. Jackie dove and caught it. The large man knocked over another one. Jackie dove and caught that one too. Then, he knocked over another one. Jackie got up and threw the vases in his hands into the air. He grabbed one and put it onto the desk. He quickly did the same to the other ones and sat down into a chair, wearing a smug grin.

Drago saw their dumbfounded expression. He smiled. 'Didn't see that coming did you?' He thought.

They shook their heads, and smiled again. "Let's just hope you reconsider. It would be in your family's best interest if you undonate that shield. By this time tomorrow." They walked out of the door.

Once they walked out, Jackie got up from the chair. He looked at them. "Drago, keep Jade company."

Uncle came out of the back. "Did they buy anything?" He said.

"No." Jackie said.

"You terrible salesman." Uncle said, irritated.

"Stay here and watch the children." Jackie said. "And hide the shield." He walked out the front door.

"Where am I going to hide a big shield?" Uncle called after him. He rubbed his chin. "Now where did I put it?" He walked back into the room.

Jade started after him. Drago went right in front of her and crossed his arms. "Where do you think you're going?" He said, while giving her a 'don't move' stare.

"I'm going after Uncle Jackie." Jade said. "Who knows what is going to happen?"

"But dad said to stay here." Drago said.

"No, he said that you are to keep me company." Jade said, walking past him. She went to the door, and looked back at him. "Are you coming or not?"

Drago sighed. 'Well, I see she's going to be a handful.' He thought. 'Poor dad.' He walked after her. "I'm coming."

They walked after Jackie. They had to pick their speed, to stay up with him. Finally, they caught up to him at the park. "Just a question." Drago said. "Why didn't you tell my dad you can speak English?"

Jade smiled. "I just wanted to mess with him."

Drago smiled. "It's certainly going to be an interesting year." He said. They turned back to see Jackie fighting back those three men. Those were the same three from a few minutes ago. His father must have been following them.

Jade turned to him, as they saw the men pull out electric swords. "Should we help him?"

Drago waved his hand. "Nah, my dad can handle himself. These chumps are pushovers." As too confirm this, Jackie was able to dodge each of their advances. He also landed a few hits of his own. Once he was finished, he turned around. Drago and Jade stood right in front of him. "I told you he could beat them." Drago said.

"What are you two doing here?" Jackie said. Before he could answer, some federal men walked up behind him. He turned around and was sprayed with some type of gas.

Drago grabbed Jade's arm. "Come on Jade." Drago said, starting to run. "We got to get out of here."

"What about your dad?" Jade said.

"He'll be fine." Drago said, pulling her along. "I recognized one of them. He was a good friend of my dad. His name is Black, I think."

"So your dad's best friend knocked him out, and are taking his to some secret location?" Jade said.

"Uhh, yes." Drago said, trying to work that out in his head.

"America is so cool." Jade said, excited by the turn of events.

"Nah. Stuff like this usually doesn't happen." Drago said. "It's usually dull and boring." Jade stopped. She pulled out of his grasp. Drago stopped and looked at her. "What are you doing? I have to get you back to the store."

"We should go back and rescue Uncle Jackie." Jade said. She crossed her arms. "I am going, with or without you." She started off, after his dad.

Drago sighed. 'Yep. An interesting year.' He thought. He started off after her. It didn't take long for them to reach where they went. They watched as Jackie disappeared into a telephone box.

They hurried around, until they came upon some stairs, they hurried down them. "Wow." Jade said. They walked until they came upon a garage. There were a few scooters inside. Jade got onto one of them. Drago just stared at her. He gave her a 'What are you doing?' look. "Stop worrying and get on. It'll be fun."

Drago sighed. He climbed on, sitting behind her. He grabbed her waist, before she started the scooter. They eventually spotted an elevator. "I got it." Drago said. He pulled out a pin and aimed it at the open button. He threw it and hit it dead on. The elevator came open. They drove inside and stopped as the doors closed.

The elevator went down. The door opened and a man tried to step inside. He stopped in his tracks when he saw them. "Excuse us sir." Drago said, as Jade started up. "We're in the middle of a rescue."

Jade drove throughout the compound, dodging people. Some of them had to jump out of the way. "Sorry." They both kept repeating. They kept driving until they saw Jackie. "I found him." Jade said. She drove right over to him. Drago grabbed him and put him on the scooter. They kept driving until Jade made a sharp turn, spilling them on the ground.

Jackie got up. He looked at them. "What are you two doing here?"

"We're here to rescue you." Jade said.

"I don't need to be rescued." Jackie said. "You shouldn't have left the shop."

"I told you Jade." Drago said. "We should have just gone back to Uncle's shop." Jade glared at him, making him cringe.

"Drago what are you doing here." Captain Black said, coming over to them. He looked at Jade then to Jackie. "Who's the little girl?"

Jackie started herding the children away. "She's my niece."

"You have a niece?" Captain Black said. "I didn't know you had one."

"Join the club." Jackie said.

"There's a club?" Drago said, scratching his head. "Why wasn't I told of it?"

"I don't think your father meant it literally." Captain Black said.

Drago shrugged. "Why do you grownups have to say things that don't mean what they mean?"

Captain Black ruffled his hair. "It's just a thing we do." He said. "So, how have you been? I haven't seen you in a few years."

Drago smiled at him. "Great. I'm among the smartest people at my school. None of the bullies bother me. I know how to deal with them." He struck a fighting pose.

Captain Black laughed. "Well, I hope you don't go picking fights with every one of them. Sometimes it is better not to fight."

"That's what my dad keeps telling me." Drago said. Black laughed again. They started off after Jackie and Jade.

(At the villains place)

Valmont had his back to the enforcers. He was very irritated at their progress. "You are telling me one man stopped you."

The red haired man looked at the other two and back to him. "Yes, but…"

"Three of my enforcers, armed with high tech weapons were defeated by an archaeologist." Valmont said, slowly pronouncing the last word. He turned around to look at them.

"Did we mention he had wind shield wipers?" The red haired man said.

"Tohru." Valmont said. The three enforcers looked back to see a large Japanese man hovering over them. He grabbed hold of them and started to squeeze.

Valmont watched for a moment. Then, a little voice came over to him. "Daddy."

Valmont looked to see a little, white haired girl run over to him. His frustration immediatly went away at the sight of her. She had slightly darker skin, like her mother. She had slanted eyes, but her long face closely resembled his face. He smiled. He grabbed her into a hug and then lifted her. "Hello, my little princess." He looked around. "Where's your mother?"

"Right here." Bai Tza said. She walked over and plucked Silvia out of his hands. She wagged a finger in her face. "Naughty girl. You shouldn't wander off from mommy."

Silvia giggled. She looked over at Tohru squeezing the men, then at her father. "Daddy, why is that man hugging the others?"

"Just business, princess." Valmont said. He looked at the others. He gave the wave of a hand. "Enough." Tohru let go of them. They fell to the floor, gasping for air. Then they got up. "Tohru, bring me the shield."

The statues eyes behind him started to glow red. "Tohru may be impressive, but perhaps he should be aided by the Shadowkahn." A few shadows crossed the room, and lined up around them. Black hooded ninjas appeared out of them. Their skin was a shade of blue.

"As you wish, Shendu." Valmont said.

(Section 13)

Jackie's phone started to ring. "I need to take this call." He said, moving away from them. Drago watched for a moment, seeing his father's reaction to the call. He always obeyed his father, and respected his privacy, so he wasn't going to listen in, but reading someone's face was the next best thing. He saw him getting a little scared at the end. He hung up the phone. He went over to Captain Black. "A favor between friends." He pointed to Drago and Jade. "Watch the kids." He started off to the elevator and pressed a button.

"Jackie where are you going?" Black asked.

Jackie raised a hand. "Please do not ask questions." He went inside as the elevator doors closed.

Jade looked at Drago and smiled. Drago had only known her for a little while, but he was sure what that smile was about. They ran off, back the way they came.

It was a few minutes of driving later, before they came across the store. They went inside. "So, what are we going to do?" Drago said. "They've kidnapped Uncle."

"Oh, don't worry about it." Jade said, as they entered the store. "We'll find something to help him. Maybe that shield everyone is talking about will help." They started looking around. Jade went behind a folding changer, while Drago went behind the desk.

Jackie came in a moment later. "Now where is the shield?" Drago heard him mumble to himself. He looked over the desk to see his father pull back the changer.

Jade smiled at him and said. "Hi."

His father, so easily to scare, gasped and stepped back. He patted his heart and breathed in and out. He pointed a finger at her. "How did you…?"

"The stairs." Jade said.

Jackie looked at both of them. Then he moved over to the stairs and pointed up. "Well, take these stairs to your room."

Jade moaned. "Oh, let me help. Uncle is my uncle too." She put a finger to her chin. "I think."

Drago walked over next to her. "Ya and I've lived my whole life with Uncle. I just can't let him get kidnapped."

Jackie sighed. "Fine. Help find the shield." He started off and looked around the room. He knelt behind a chair. Jade saw the shield underneath a pile of rubble. She pulled it out, causing the rest to spill on Jackie. He came out of it and glared at her.

Jade put the shield up. "This it?" She said.

"Yes." Jackie said, smiling.

"I must be getting that wisdom you were talking about." Jade said.

Drago looked at his father. "You talked to her about wisdom?" He asked. He then looked at her. "Well, she does kind of need a pep talk in that field." She pouted at him.

"Thank you." Jackie said, as he cleared the pile. He grabbed the shield. "Now go to your room."

Jade pouted, as Jackie left the building. Drago looked at her. "You're not going to listen to him, are you?" He said, already knowing the answer.

Jade shook her head and smiled. "Nope." Drago sighed. "Oh, come on. You got to admit that this is cool."

"Okay, I'll admit that." Drago said. They walked out of the store and followed after Jackie. They finally reached him at a large building. Drago's father stared up at the rooftop.

"Uncle's up there, huh." Jade said.

"Probably." Drago said.

Jackie turned around to look at them. "You speak English."

Jade and Drago looked at each other and back at him. Both of them giving him a 'duh', expression. "You know I do." Jade said.

"So what part of, go to your room, do you not understand." Jackie said.

"Most of it." Drago said. Jade punched in the shoulder. "Oww." He said, as he rubbed it.

Jackie pointed to the ground. "Stay here or I'll put you on the first flight to Hong Kong." He looked at Drago. "I expected better of you. Now stay here or you will be grounded." Drago looked down at the ground. He started to walk through the front door.

Jade did a two fingered salute. "Scouts honor." She said. Once he was out of sight, she lowered her fingers.

"Are you really a scout?" Drago said, crossing his arms.

"No." Jade said and started walking. Drago sighed and walked after her. They went inside the building and took the stairs up. They continued, until they reached the top. Jade was about to open the door, when Drago stopped her. She looked at him. "It could be dangerous." He stepped in front of her and opened it slightly. They saw Jackie with the shield, while a large, fat Japanese man held Uncle.

Jackie saw them and winked. Jade came around him and gave him a thumb up. Drago pushed her back. Jackie then turned his attention to the big man. "You want the shield." He threw it. "Catch." The shield spun right over the man's head. He let go of Uncle and reached for it. Drago and Jade saw their chance and rushed out. They caught hold of Uncle and ran back to the stairs.

"You fool." The large man said, as he saw Jackie catch the shield. "Now say sianora to your Uncle." He raised a fist and looked to his side. He saw Uncle being rushed to the stairs. The man went after them.

Jackie went to stop him, but was interrupted, when a large amount of shadows popped up around him. They slowly formed ninjas.

Back down at the bottom, they finally made it outside. "Well that was a close call." Drago said, wiping sweat off his forehead. He looked up to see his father battle some ninjas. "I don't remember ninjas up there." He looked over at Jade. She shrugged.

Then, Jackie looked down at them. He threw the shield in their direction. Jade jumped up and caught it. "I got it." She yelled triumphantly.

"Yes you have." A deep voice said behind Drago. Drago looked up to see the large Japanese man behind him. He jumped back and let out a short yell. He patted his heart and breathed in and out. The large man put out a hand. "Hand over the shield."

Jade pulled the shield closer. Then, she looked back from it to the man. She finally handed it over to him. He walked away from the scene.

A few minutes later, Captain Black and Jackie came down in a helicopter. Jackie got out and hugged them. "I'm so glad your okay." He said. He ruffled Drago's hair.

"It's too bad they got the shield though." Drago said.

"Shield not important." Uncle said. "Talisman is. It possesses strong magic."

Captain Black smirked. "Okay." He said. 'He doesn't believe it.' Drago thought. ""We'll put out a search on all talismans."

"Well, you won't have to worry about this one though." Jade said, smiling. Everyone looked at her. She pulled out the little rock that was in the middle of the shield.

(Villains place)

Valmont stood in his office. His wife and daughter stood next to him. Tohru, with the enforcers behind him, came in front of him and knelt. "The shield." He said.

Valmont smiled, until he saw the middle of the shield. 'The bufoon.' He thought. Tohru looked up at him and saw his expression. "What?"

"Daddy, isn't there supposed to be a talisman there?" Silvia said, pointing to the shield's center.

"Very perceptive princess." Valmont said behind clenched teeth.
