Chapter 4: Making a man out of you

The next day in Izzy's tent, the girl was sound asleep until...

"RISE AND SHINE SLEEPY HEAD! UP, UP, UP!"

Izzy then jumped up at the sound of Dojo's voice as she groaned and pulled the covers over her head. But Dojo immediately pulls it off of her while telling her. "Strap those clothes on! And I've got breakfast for ya." Dojo then reaches out and pulls out a bowl of porridge. "And today, you get porridge. Aw, look. I think it's smiling at you."

He was right as the eggs in the bowl made eyes and the bacon made a smile. Izzy looked to see Brightly popping out of the porridge.

But suddenly Dojo began to shoo Brightly away saying, "Hey, get out of there! You'll end up making people sick." He then turned back to Izzy as he stuffed her face with the porridge.

"Now just remember kid, this is your first official day of training. So make sure to listen to your instructor and don't start a huge fight. Play nice with the others, unless if they want to fight. Then you got to kick their butts."

"But I don't wanna kick the other kids butt..." Izzy told him, though muffled because of the food.

"Hey! Don't talk with your mouth full. Now show me your war face!"

Izzy just looked at him, her cheeks puffed up due to the porridge. "Woo! I think my bunny slippers just took cover. C'mon kid! Scare me!" Izzy then growled loudly, definitely scaring Dojo. "Now that's what I'm talking about! Now get out there and make me proud! And bring honor to your entire family!"

Suddenly, Pharfignewton popped her head inside the tent, trying to tell Dojo something.

And amazingly Dojo somehow understood her. "What? What do you mean the troops have already left?!"

"Wait, WHAT?!" Izzy shrieked, now hurrying to get her clothes on. Soon, she ran off to meet the troops. "WAIT?! Hold on! You forgot your sword!" Dojo said, but she was already gone. And right now, he felt very proud as a tear sheds from his eye. "There goes my little girl, off to destroy people."

At the camp, the boys were already in line ordering their breakfast. "Come on people, let's keep up those orders!"

"I want some noodles." Said one soldiers.

"Sweet and pungent squid." Boomer requested as his brothers laughed. But Squidward groaned in annoyance and sarcastically said. "Very funny..."

Brick then noticed Izzy running up to them. "Well, look who finally managed to show up after sleeping in?!" Brick said as Izzy suddenly ran into him. "Good morning Ping, Are you feeling hungry?"

Before Izzy could answer, Butch spoke up. "I sure hope you are, cause I still owe you a knuckle sandwich!" He prepared to punch Izzy, who covered her face, until the captain spoke.

"Listen up soldiers! All of you will assemble swiftly and silently, every morning. Anybody who does otherwise, will have to answer to me."

Jake then began to take off his shirt. Once fully off, Izzy looked on in awe. She had to admit, Jake looked good. "Ooh, he'd trying to be a tough guy." Butch muttered to his brothers. Unfortunately, Jake heard him. As he then pulls out a bow and arrow, and at first aims it at Butch. But then at the top of the pole in the middle of camp. "Thank you for volunteering Butch! Now for your first training session, retrieve the arrow!"

Butch just smirked as he walked towards the pole.

However, Jake stopped him and gave him something. "Hold on. You'll need to wear this." Jake then tied to golden medals around Butch's wrist. "Before you even ask, this represents discipline. And this medal represents strength. You'll need both in order to reach the arrow."

Butch then began to climb the pole. But before he could even get halfway up there, he started to slide back down. He tried to keep climbing, heck he even tried using his teeth to keep his grip intact. But even that didn't as know as he slid down to the ground. And this practically went for everyone else who tried to climb the pole, including Izzy.

Jake sighed, "We've got a long way to go."

He grabbed some sticks and threw them towards the soldiers to use for their training. Just as Izzy was about to get her's, Butch suddenly grabs it. Izzy glared at him until he used it to trip her. And now tries to look innocent as he rolled his eyes and throws her stick by her. That's when Jake began to sing

Jake: Let's get down to business!

He then used his stick to throw up two pots, and broke them as the soldiers watched in awe.

To defeat the Huns

Did they send me daughters when I asked for son?

He then aims his stick at the soldiers as they posed themselves and stick in the same position Jake has it. And while Izzy wasn't looking, Brick stuck a bug in her shirt. And upon immediately feeling it, she began to move around to get it out, accidentally knocking the soldiers around her down. Dojo, watching from afar shakes his head, placing his hand over his forehead.

Jake glared and stormed over to Izzy.

You're the saddest bunch I've ever met

And you bet before we're through

Mister I'll make a man out of you...

Over with Squidward, he writes down some more notes on his clipboard. Next it was bow and arrow time, as Jake demonstrated shooting a tomato with an arrow, and targeting it at a tree.

Tranquil as a forest

But on fire within

Everyone else tried to copy exactly how he did it. But they didn't even come close! Dojo tried to help Izzy with hers, by piercing a tomato onto her arrow. Unfortunately Jake had saw her and scowled at her. Izzy just smiled nervously.

Once you find you center

You are sure to win

Next it was fending off attacks. Jake, with a bucket of water on his head, using a stick to block off rocks thrown by the soldiers, as a defense mechanism. Once he showed his demonstration, he had Izzy tried to block rocks. She saw the devious looks on the Rowdyruffs faces. This was not going to end well for her. They all threw the rocks at her and she could barely block any of them... except for one.

You're a spineless, pale, pathetic lot

And you haven't got a clue

Somehow I'll make a man out of you...

Next after that, it was fishing like a bear, as Jake showed the troops how to catch fish with their bare hands. He eyes down the water very cautiously, and then snatched up a nearby fish. Izzy and Butch tried to do the same, However Izzy did grab something. But it wasn't a fish, instead it was Butch's foot.

Izzy looks down to see that she accidentally pulled Butch underwater. She chuckled and carefully put his foot back underwater.

Next at night, it was dodging fire arrows, as the troops had to run and dodge as many arrows on fire as they could

Boomer: I'm never gonna catch my breath

Unfortunately for Butch, he suddenly trips, and an arrow targets his behind.

Butch: Say goodbye to those who knew me

Later on Brick was learning to break concrete in half with his forehead, but as he attempted it, the only thing he broke was his forehead.

Brick: Boy was I a fool in school for cutting gym

With Izzy, Jake was training her to punch and kick. And already it was hard for her as Jake punched her, causing her to fly into a near tree, where Dojo was waiting for her with a wet cloth.

Dojo: This guys got 'em scared to death

Izzy: Hope he doesn't see right through me...

With Boomer, he was jumping on polls that stood over water, but was nervous.

Boomer: Now I really wish that I knew how to swim!

But due to this, he ended up stopping all of the others that were in front of him. Next it was firing cannons as Jake demonstrated on how to light it. Once getting it into position, he takes a match. Lights the fuse, and then the dragon themed cannon flew and landed on a target. And explodes upon impact, as the target was practically charred and destroyed.

And now the troops had to do the same. But each one of them kept missing their target. But when it came to Izzy lighting her rocket, Brick knocked over the wood holding it up. Just as the fuse reached to inside the rocket. Izzy tried to keep it from falling, but couldn't.

(Be a man)

Jake: You must be swift as a coursing river

(Be a man)

With all the force of a great typhoon

And the rocket ends up flying out of control, until hitting Squidward's tent... right in front of Squidward! And immediately a livid Squidward loses it as he throws his clip board to the ground.

Later on, Jake watched as some troops attempted to retrieve that arrow from the pole, but most of them gave up. And as he watched, he sighed in annoyance. It has been a long few days, and they were going nowhere.

Time is racing towards us

Till the Huns arrive

The next day, Jake had the soldiers carrying heavy sacks on the end of sticks on their shoulders. For most of them it's been very hard for some, but then Squidward notified Jake and pointed towards Izzy, who was falling far behind to due the heaviness of the sacks. Though she tried very hard to keep up, but she ended up falling to the ground, extremely exhausted.

Just then Jake walks up to her and takes her sacks, glaring as he did so. And as he starts to run off, to catch up with his troop. Izzy just sighed as she lowered her head in defeat. This was getting difficult already.

Heed my every order

And you might survive

Later that night, Jake walked up to Izzy with Pharfignewton. He was expelling her from the army.

You're not suited for

The rage of war

So pack up, go home

You're through

How could I

Make a man out of you?

Once doing what he had to do, he leaves. But as Izzy was about to leave in shame and defeat, she looked up at the pole and saw that arrow. And then, not wanting to quit, proceeds to try again with retrieving the arrow. She used the medals from before to try and climb the pole, but then fell back down again. She grew frustrated at first, but as she looked at the medals and then got an idea.

Once getting to her feet and into position, that's when she takes her medals and suddenly wrapped them around the pole.

Be a man

You must be swift as a coursing river

Be a man

With all the force of a great typhoon

That's when the other soldiers began to notice her. She began to climb up the pole once more, but nearly slid down a bit. But Izzy used all of her strength to pull herself up. Suddenly, as Jake came out of his tent, and arrow was shot down in front of him, targeting the ground.

With all the strength's of a raging fire

Mysterious as the dark side of the moon

He looked up and saw Izzy sitting on top of the pole smiling. And Jake just smiled back. There was still a chance after all, as we hear the sound of applauding next. Coming from the troops. Now Izzy had what it took to be strong. And so because of this, the days that followed. The soldiers started to get better at training. For instance, Izzy got better at carrying sacks, shooting arrows through tomatos, fighting, and catching fish.

Be a man

You must be swift as a coursing river...

With all the force of the great typhoon

With all the strength of a raging fire

Mysterious as the dark side of the moon

As the song ends, we see in the middle of the forest, Broly cutting off the top of a three. with his own bare hand amazingly. At the same time this occurs, this pet hawk comes flying in carrying a small doll as it drops it to it's master. Broly then jumps down from the top of the tree, and makes a massive impact on the ground. Then throws the doll to one of his hun soldiers.

"What do you see?" Broly asked his soldiers.

"Pine... from the high mountains." Said one.

"White horse hair... Umperial stallions." Said another.

"Sulphur... from cannons." A third hun replied.

"This little ragged toy, came from a village in the Toon Show Pass, where I learned that the imperial army is currently waiting."

"We can avoid them easily." A hun told him.

"No you fool!" Broly shouted. "That pass is the quickest way to the emperor's palace. And plus, I'm sure the little girl will be missing her doll. So I say we should return it to her."

Oh my... Broly's got some sinister plans. And the soldiers are getting better at training. Next chapter, we'll taking a bath... I mean, Izzy will be taking bath. How will it go? You'll find out soon. I'll see you guys later, and don't forget to review, please. Thank you.
