Ch. 2: Avalon

Uncle and Tohru were explaining to Jackie, Jade, Black, and the J-Teens about Xua Wing and Avalon, while Drago is getting acquainted with his grandfather.

"Xua Wing is known as the very first Chi Wizard and Ruler of Avalon Island," Uncle explained.

"Avalon, as in the final resting place of King Arthur?" Jackie said with his eyes wide open.

"That and more. Avalon is the birthplace of all magic, including the magical creatures of legend. Xua Wing's job is to make certain all worlds magic is kept within balance between light and dark."

"When you meant magical creatures, does that include Shendu and his brothers and sisters?" Colleen asked.

"Exactly, Colleen."

"So what brings you to Section 13, Your Royal Magicness?" Colleen asked Xua Wing.

"Can't an old man come visit his grandson and give him a big surprise?" Xua Wing chuckled.

"What kind of surprise, Grandfather?" Drago asked.

"If you follow me to Avalon, I will show you," Xua Wing replied s he made another portal.

Xua Wing went into the portal first; then, the J-Teens went in alphabetical order, and then Jackie, Jade, Black, Uncle, and Tohru. When they came to the other side of the portal, they see a fresh green place with clear blue skies, aurora colors floating everywhere, and magical creatures of all kinds everywhere. They looked on with awe. A purple fairy flies toward Xua Wing with news.

"Master Xua Wing, the wizard has just finished the necessary preparations," the fairy informed.

"Thank you," Xua Wing said, "Tell him I'll be there with my guests."

They continue to walk onward toward the castle. Colleen couldn't help but look at all the natural beauty.

"Avalon looks like something out of a fairy tale," Colleen said with awe.

"Where did you think those fairy tales were invented?" Hsi Wu said.

Cody looked to his right and rubbed his eyes when he saw a unicorn. What they didn't know is that they are being followed by the Monkey King.

Finally, they made it to the castle.

"Open the front gates!" Xua Wing commanded.

The guards open the gate. The group looks toward the gate and see something running closer to them. It's a dragon that looked like Toothless, only white and with blue eyes. It ran toward them and jumped Hsi Wu. Black was about to shoot it off of him until he sees Hsi Wu laughing as the dragon licks him like a dog. The group showed confused looks in their eyes.

"It's okay, Guys," Hsi Wu said, "It's just Fury, our house pet."

"That's a house pet?" Jackie said baffled.

They continue into the castle and walked down the corridors.

"So how come you never told me about grandfather, Unc?" Drago asked

"We haven't spoken of him since we were banished into the Netherworld," Hsi Wu replied.

"Why?"

"He was the one who gave the Eight Immortals the spells that defeated us."

"Serious?" Jade said.

"Indeed, Jade," Xua Wing explained, "My children were given powers to help humans, but instead, they became corrupted and used their powers to bully and terrorize the humans. I gave the Immortals the means to stop them before they got hurt."

"So the Eight Immortals banishing you was just Dear Old Dad giving you and your brothers and sisters an interdimensional time-out," Jade smirked.

"Don't remind me," Hsi Wu lowered his head.

"But why did you go bad in the first place?" Uncle said.

"I don't know," Hsi Wu explained, "All I remember is Tchang Zu talking us into it. After that, it got a little fuzzy."

The group finally came into the chambers. As they walked down the Main Hall, they saw suits of armor staring at them.

"Which amusement park attraction does this remind me of?" Jackie asked himself.

Xua Wing opened the door at the end of the hallway. Inside is a cavern that's as beautiful as Luray's Caverns.

"These caverns are known as the Rookery, where the eggs of my children were first hatched," Xua Wing said.

"I remember this place, Hsi Wu said, "Why did you bring us back here?"

Xua Wing pointed upward to show them. The J-Teens turn and see the same kind of eggs used for Shendu's rebirth by Daolon Wong, except there were seven and in different colors. Drago looked inside the eggs and sees his aunts and uncles inside. This surprised Drago and Hsi Wu even more.
