Chapter 4

Owen's P.O.V

Following Flint's K.O

I was all but convinced that the Mike standing in front of us was the shape-shifter Jelly Face. It was only natural for him to go on the offensive knocking out Flint when he was attacked by several shuriken.

"Game's over Jelly Face. Why are you here?" I demanded.

"All I care about now is revenge on Martin Fukanaga." Jelly Face openly admitted.

"Then why didn't you attack him yesterday when you had the opportunity?" Amanda asked confused.

"My plan was to get rid of the Supah Ninjas, which I know is you and Owen, before going after Marty."

"Who told you we were the Supah Ninja," Amanda asked nervously.

"A little birdie told me. That's all I'm gonna say. Now," Jelly Face paused, "Who to get rid of first." Jelly Face wasted no time, cartwheeling towards us.

"How about yourself," Amanda suggested getting into a fighting stance. While the two were deadlocked in fight, I snuck out and grabbed my bo staff from the weapons rack. I may not have needed that weapon in the first place but I would rather have an advantage than try my luck.

Meanwhile, the two were still fighting. Amanda tried to land a sweeping low kick but Jelly Face jumped in time to avoid the attack. He countered with his own sweeping low kick, which knocked Amanda off her feet. She did a backwards summersault and jumped back up to resumed fighting. Punch. Block. Punch. Block. Jelly Face tried a jump kick, which Amanda managed to block. However, she wasn't prepared when Jelly Face followed up with a spinning heel kick to the skull.

The world seemed to continue in slow motion. I saw Amanda's face contort in pain before her eyes closed and she fell to the floor in a heap. I saw Jelly Face's delayed reaction of triumph. I saw Hologramps and Mr. McKay telling me to look after and protect Amanda and I had failed.

"One down. One to go," Jelly Face mumbled to himself before walking causally to where I stood. Even though Jelly Face was weaponless, he was sure to be a good fighter. If he could beat Amanda, and I couldn't even match her on Yamato's fight level, than I should stand no chance. The only advantage I had was being with a weapon of my choice, and the adrenaline rush I was currently experiencing.

"We meet again Owen. Only this time you won't be defeating me." Jelly Face laughed as he took a fighting stance.

"If I didn't need one to defeat you earlier, just having one already gives me the advantage." I shot back.

Jelly Face said nothing and made the first attack, a swipe kick. I fell down but managed to hold onto the. Jelly Face and I wrestled on the ground trying to get that decisive weapon.

Rolling around I managed to strike him in the face with my fist a few times before he used his upper body strength and pushed me off.

I stumbled a little bit but managed to keep my balance. By the time I recovered, Jelly Face was already on his next move. He quickly executed a sidekick to my ribcage causing me to fall off my feet, the sliding off to my side.

I landed hard on my back knocking the wind out of me. My next breath hurt so much I curled into a fetal position to try to ease the pain. That didn't work of course.

"Yamato," I cried. A wave of nausea so severe passed me and I threw up some of my own blood. "Call 911." Every breath I took felt like my insides were being grated like cheese.

"Well this was fun while it lasted. I have to tell Marty the bad news before I kill him." Jelly Face announced happily. He grabbed my Bo staff from the side and raised it high. I closed my eyes waiting for the blow. However, it never came.

I slowly opened my eyes and saw the plasmatic form of Jelly Face lying on the floor, my Bo staff to the side.

"Hey, you ok?" Flint asked, having obviously recovered from his knockout.

"Not at all," I began. Another wave of nausea hit me as I threw up again. "We need to get out of here."

"I'm on it," Yamato enunciated. Before I knew what he was doing, he had picked me up and was carrying Amanda, Jelly Face, and me to the exit. Flint and Kid Q followed.

"A lot of weight you're carrying," Flint spoke up trying to ease the silence.

"That's nothing. I threw 10 men of my back before you were here." Yamato commented in his robot voice.

After we exited the tunnel, we wound up in an abandoned alleyway where Yamato left us. Sirens were being heard in the distance.

'I'm going to be okay,' was the last thing I thought before entering a deep darkness.

Mike's P.O.V

My future was uncertain as I ran towards an Ishina with nunchucks. Since nunchucks were my go-to weapon, I would last longer if I defeated him. I have to stay alive for when Amanda and I reunite in the future.

I began the offensive by swinging my Bo staff in a helicopter motion. He dodged the attack and lashed his nunchuck out, aiming at my throat. I ducked and followed up by scooping my Bo staff in an attempt to hit him in the nuts. The strike connected and he collapsed to the floor, obviously in great pain.

Deciding to have another Sun Warrior finish him off, I easily grabbed his nunchucks and headed off to face my next opponent.

I hadn't traveled far when an Ishina slashed their sword at my face. I instinctively jerked my head to the side, just avoiding the attack. Thank goodness for my reflexes.

The Ishina, who appeared to be a female, followed up with a strike to my side. I fell back a few steps before getting ready for her next attack. She followed up quickly aiming for my throat. I ducked and managed to block her follow-up strike to my chest with my nunchuck.

Trying to gain some much-needed momentum, I went down low and tried a swipe kick to get her off her feet. She landed on her butt but held on to her sword. Not wasting any time, I lunged at her, knocking her back to the ground. This time, the sword fell out of her hand.

Feeling I would be at a disadvantage if she reclaimed her sword, I pinned her to the ground against her squirming. I quickly pulled out my nunchuck and swiftly applied pressure to her right hand, the one that could have reached for the sword.

"Surrender now or you lose your arm." I threatened, praying to god, she would surrender. Much to my satisfaction, she surrendered. I walked away heading to the exit, but not before grabbing the sword.

"Glad you made it out okay," a masculine voice said from behind me, "I see you came away with a nice souvenir."

I turned around and saw a Sun Warrior walking with me. They were carrying a Bo staff.

"Follow me. Our ninjas are waiting to meet you outside." The Sun Warrior explained. The Sun Warrior ran ahead, me trailing shortly behind him.

We ran for a short time before coming across a ladder, which, I was told would lead to my freedom. The Sun Warrior was maybe fifteen rungs up when a Qi blast fired from somewhere behind me. I watched the Sun Warrior land hard on his back.

"You will not escape me Mike Fukanaga." Kagema boomed from across the hallway.

"Up the stairs," the Sun Warrior on the floor whispered.

I immediately began to climb the ladder. I succeeded in climbing the first two rungs before another Qi blast from Kagema almost sent me off my feet. Realizing escaping was useless now; I stepped off the ladder and readied myself for Kagema.

"It's up to you," the Sun Warrior whispered, obviously not strong enough to fight. That fall must have done serious damage to his back.

I gripped my sword as Kagema began the offensive by slashing his sword at my side. I barely managed to block the attack, his strength almost getting the best of me. Withdrawing his sword momentarily, he tried a sweeping low kick. I avoided the attack by performing a butterfly twist. I then tried performing a downward slash with my sword but Kagema blocked my attack!

After stalemating for the next several strikes, I was barely managing to block his attacks; Kagema drew first blood, his sword grazing my shoulder. All I could compare the pain to was someone tearing the hair off my head, except ten times worse.

"That was for hiding the floating sword," Kagema snipped.

"I had to. It was my destiny….gah. Son of a-" I defended.

Kagema had taken advantage of my mini-speech to hit my injured shoulder with a round kick. I fell down in great pain and turned back to face Kagema staring back at me, sword above his head.

A sudden Qi blast from behind me knocked Kagema to the ground, much to my gratitude. Someone, most certainly a Sun Warrior, saved me. I turned back, expecting the Sun Warrior I was to escape with to have fired the shot. However, it was the girl who had told me about my grandfather's death. She had saved me again.

"Up the stairs. Now go. I'll take care of Kagema. Our Sun Warriors are waiting." The girl urged.

Using my good arm, I climbed up the later and shortly later came to the roof, where a half dozen Sun Warriors were ready to assist me. Just beyond them was a helicopter.

"Glad you escaped Mike Fukanaga. Our mission is complete. Follow me back to the base and we'll get you bandaged up," a masculine Sun Warrior spoke up.

I followed the Sun Warriors into the helicopter and sat down exhausted. While another Sun Warrior had left temporarily to get some dressing for my wound, one thought stood out among all the pain and loneliness. 'I am safe.'

Well folks, that concludes my longest Supah Ninja chapter up to date, but that's a given. It took longer than I expected to come up with the fight scenes, but I finally got through them. Leave a review and let me know what you would like from future fight scenes. Would you like more or less description? More variety of kicks and punches? I shall leave that information to you. I am not sure as to when the next update will be.
