Ch. 3: Best Friends Reunite
The J-Teens finally arrive at the science camp where Chrissie is going. It is called the "Green Valley Camp of Science and Exploration. Waiting for them outside the camp is Jade and her friend Jimmy.
"Jade? What are you doing here?" Colleen asked.
"Jimmy and I signed up for a two-week program. Remember?" Jade said.
"I forgot," Colleen said.
"Jimmy, these are the J-Teens, the group of friends I told you about," Jade introduced.
"Hi. Jade told me so much about you," Jimmy said.
"This camp rocks, Colleen!" Jade said with excitement, "We got to look at wild animals from a distance, learn about different rocks, and we got to go inside a cave! What are you guys doing here?"
"We're trying to find the Air Key," Drago said.
"Have you met Cody?" Colleen asked.
"Hi," Jade said to Cody.
"Jade, have seen a girl named Chrissie?"
"Chrissie? She's with the older kids on a different schedule, and we're bunkmates," Jade said, "Why?"
"She's the Holder of the Air Key," Colleen said.
"It's important we see her," Hsi Wu said, "Me especially."
"Focus, Hsi Wu," Cody said.
"She's at my bunk resting up," Jade said, "Follow me."
Jade took the J-Teens to their bunk. They went inside and see Chrissie sitting on one of the bottom bunk beds. She was working on some kind of invention when Colleen spoke to her.
"Hi, Chrissie," Colleen said.
"Colleen!" Chrissie yelled out as she ran to her and hugged her.
"How are you doing?" Colleen asked happily.
"Pretty good," Chrissie said.
"You remember me, right Girl?" Ice said as he walked toward her.
"Ice!" Chrissie said excitedly.
Chrissie hugs Ice, much to Hsi Wu's dismay. Then, he thought about what Jade mentioned earlier.
"Didn't Jade mention a cave when we got here?" he asked.
"Don't even think it, Unc," Drago said.
"We can catch up on old later, Chrissie," Colleen said, "Right now, you are in real trouble."
"What kind of trouble?"
Suddenly, the Goblin Trio appears form out of nowhere.
"Trouble from us, Deary!" Baldro said.
"Baldro, how did you get here?!" Colleen asked with surprise.
"We had a ride from our new allies," Illry snickered then whistled.
Colleen had a confused look on her at first, but then she noticed that Cody, Drago, and Hsi Wu's shadows were getting bigger.
"Drago, your shadow is getting bigger!" Colleen warned.
Drago and the others saw this. Jade, Drago, and Hsi Wu realized what is going on.
"The Shadow khan!" the three yelled in unison.
"Shadow what?" Colleen said.
"Talk later!" Jade shouted out.
The Shadow khan suddenly poofed out of the shadows and surrounded the gang. Hsi Wu and Ice each hold onto Chrissie's hand. They both noticed this and looked at each other suspiciously. Jade and Jimmy hid under the bed. Jade was dialing her cell phone for uncle.
