The final confrontation and an awesome ending to the battle!
Chapter 24: The Last Spar
Shifu and Splinter were standing in front of Tai Lung, looking at each other straight in the eye, ready for a huge fight battle. Tai Lung gave out a low snarl at both of them and Shifu and Splinter clutched their knuckles and they're more than ready to end this once and for all.
"You two are no match for me." Tai Lung said.
"Oh, do we?" asked Shifu.
"Because you cannot touch us." Splinter said.
"Well, we'll see about that, won't we?"
Tai Lung leaped into the air to squash both of them, but Shifu and Splinter made a backflip in opposite directions. Tai Lung got down to his feet and missed both of them. He turned around and saw both of them where he was standing. He snarled fiercely and charged at both of them and planned to give them a sleeper-hold, but Shifu leaped in front of him and kicked him in the back.
Splinter was up next, giving him an air kick on his face. Tai Lung was on the floor, but he was too quick for Splinter, so he tripped him with his leg and fell down on the ground, really hard. Shifu looked at Splinter and he was laying there. That made Shifu ticked off more than ever and he ran towards him and bashed him on the head using his foot.
Obviously, Tai Lung grabbed him by the foot, spun him around and threw him down and was sent flying through the palace. Suddenly, Musaki jumped in and caught him by the hand, thus saving his life. Tai Lung dropped his jaw and exclaimed, "Impossible!"
Musaki looked at Shifu and asked, "You okay?"
"Yes, I am fine."
"Perfect."
"Hey, you! It's you I'm gonna come after, so expect to end your life in pieces!"
"I hope you're talking about your brain, because I'm pretty sure it'll be battered into a million little pieces."
Tai Lung charged to him, but Musaki kicked him in the face harder. Suddenly, he got up quicker and used his kung-fu tricks to make him feel feared. When he stopped, Musaki scoffed and just punched him straight in the mouth.
"Dude, you're wasted."
Splinter grunted softly, opened his eyes and tried to get up and saw Tai Lung coming at the others. It drove him nuts to figure that he'll lay a finger on everyone, including his sons. He quickly runs towards him and then, jumped on his back and scratched his face with his fingers. Then, he made a backflip and got off him and landed on the ground with his feet.
"Nobody harms my sons! NOBODY!" Splinter shouted.
"Well, I just did. What are you gonna do about it, old man?"
Donny tapped him on the shoulder, in which Tai Lung turned around and said, "You should consider getting anger management classes."
Then, he bonked him on the head with his staff and swiped his ribs and his side as well. Both Shifu and Splinter ran towards him and kicked him in the butt and Shifu took a slap upside his head and Splinter kicks him in the chops with his foot. Everyone exclaimed in a shocking and suprising fashion and Musaki was able to finish him off, by standing in front of him and asked, "Know this, you mess with my family, you mess with me."
"And me too!" Zeke exclaimed.
Zeke went in front of Musaki and planned to finish it themselves. However, Shifu and Splinter got in front of them, as well as Po, Crane, Mantis, Monkey, Tigress, Viper, Zuko, Ichi, Leo, Raph, Donny and Mikey went in suit as well. Musaki told him, "There are only 16 of us and only one of you."
"So? I could still take you all down in a heartbeat!" Tai Lung shouted.
"What are you trying to prove, anyway? You got defeated...almost."
"Musaki, Zeke...if you may?" asked Shifu.
"With pleasure." they both said, in unison.
They got into Tai Lung and punched them in the face, while Shifu and Splinter kicked him in the crotch. Tai Lung winced at the pain and got down on his knees and squeaked in a high voice. Musaki looked at Po and asked, "If you'll do the honors of doing a big finish?"
"Most certainly, Lil' Saki." Po said.
Po walked towards Tai Lung and as he looked at him, Tai Lung asked, "What are you gonna do with me?"
"Kiss my panda butt!"
Then, he pushed his belly and sent him flying through the air and after that, he swiped his butt on his face and went airborne! He fell down to the ground numerous times and then, Musaki went in for the huge finish. He walked towards him and Tai Lung tried to grab him, but Musaki stopped him on his tracks by grabbing his finger.
Everyone was suprising and didn't know what he was gonna do with him. Raph asked, "What's he doing?"
"Why is he holding his finger?" asked Zuko.
"Just watch." Shifu said.
"Consider this your farewell for mine and Zeke's parents."
He lifted his pinkie and everyone was surprised to see the secret weapon that Musaki was gonna unveil. Zeke gasped in shock and asked, "Is that...?"
"Yes, it is."
"What's what?" asked Mikey.
"You wouldn't dare." Tai Lung said.
"Ah, shut up and watch me."
"Please tell me that Shifu and that...that...fat panda didn't teach you that!"
"They never did. Why? Because I already know it. As my awesome Dragon Warrior of a brother would say...'Skadoosh!'"
He lowered his finger down and within a few seconds, a golden, yellow flash echoed throughout most of the valley, leaving behind this gold wind of dust blowing everywhere in its path. Minutes later, as the dust begins to clear, Musaki walks out of there with several of the surprised and shocked gang that he walked through. Raph's jaw dropped down and he dropped his sai down on the ground and Donny dropped his staff on the ground as well. All Mikey could say was, "Dude..."
Musaki chuckled and said, "I defeated him. For the first time in my life, I actually defeated Tai Lung...again!"
Zeke dropped his jaw and asked Musaki, "What was that power?"
"That's what I want to know." Leo said.
Musaki chuckled and said, "In here, they call it 'The Wuxi Finger Hold.'"
"The what?" asked Raph.
"It's been developed by Master Wuxi on the third dynasty. You just saw when I held on someone's finger and flex my pinky. Shifu told me the hardest part was cleaning up afterwards."
"Dude, that was totally awesome!" Mikey exclaimed.
"And how!"
"I mastered that trick before when I confronted Dai Lee a year ago. Awesome power to use." Ichi said.
"Isn't it, though?"
As the dust settled, everything was peaceful again. The sun turned from grey to light white and blue as the sun began to come out. Musaki chuckled and said, "Well, I guess this battle's over and...Tai Lung is really gone."
"Forever."
"Good riddance." Shifu said.
Tigress walked towards him and Musaki kinda dreaded what she was gonna do. But, she puts her fist on her hand and said, "Future Master."
Musaki wasn't expecting that to happen to hear Tigress actually call him 'Future Master.' He asked, "You serious?"
"I have to admit, your moves are somewhat impressive and you could be our master someday."
"That's huge coming from you. Thanks."
"Don't think for a minute that this changes everything about me changing my ways about you."
"I knew this was gonna come after."
"Cause I still think you're a little instigator."
"And you're a chick stink breath."
Tigress chuckled softly and said, "Congratulations in the future."
"Yeah, whatever. You care about me, don't you?"
"Still won't change anything."
Tigress started to walk away, but Musaki knows that she was lying through her teeth. He followed her and said, "Come on, you know you like having me around."
"Since when?"
"Uh, since I got here, duh!"
"Nothing about me between you will never change."
"By the time I'm 18, you'll regret every single thing you say about me and I will be your teacher and we'll see who's laughing now."
Splinter asked Shifu, "Are these two always like this?"
"Nah, usually they just squabble. Quite honestly, I've never been more proud of Musaki that I have ever been." Shifu said.
Splinter turned to the turtles, smiled at them and said, "You have made me very proud, my sons."
"Thank you, sensei." they said, as they bowed to him.
Was that awesome or was that awesome! There's more coming up!
