Chapter 5
Escape Success/Ending
As I begin to wake up out of my sleep, I couldn't move my paws that were behind my back. I get up, look behind and see the chain and I knew they were lightning proof.
Crap! I thought.
I look at my feet and they were chained also. I lower my feet to reach and go over my paws to get them in the front.
"Kenji?" Wing called out.
"Wing? What happened?" I asked, "Where are you?"
"In here." she said.
I look at the walls a there was a big hole enough to look through a full head. I look through it and see Wing looking disappointed.
"Wing? They got you too?" I asked.
She nods.
I sighed, "So how can we get out?" I asked.
"I don't know." she said as I hear her voice starting to break down and cry.
"Wing?" I called out.
"This is all your fault!" she snapped all of a sudden.
"My fault?" I asked, "How is it my fault?"
"If you hadn't come, then this could've not happen!" she continued to shout.
"Look, I came here for a reason and that is to find something important to me." I said.
"And for what?!" she shouted, "You had come here for nothing!"
That then got my attention.
"My parents died when I was little, and my sisters were the only family I had left! And now I have nothing!" she said.
"I'm sorry, Wing. But I do understand." I said, "You see, I-"
"What do you know about family!? she snapped, "You don't know how long I was in prison! You don't know what it feels like!"
"Well, you don't know how it feels to have no memory at all!" I roared, "You don't know how it feels to have no memory of anybody! No friends, no family, nothing!"
It became dead silence for a whole minute.
"You...then how...?" she asked.
"I... I was found by Master Shifu. He brought me to a real family. No dakness, no despair. It was all perfect until all of this." I said almost letting out a tear, "I never felt so happy to find a life. To find the person I love."
I start to then bite my lip hard that it begin to bleed and cry.
"I promised... I promised to her... that I will come back..." I said, "I can't die here."
I wipe the blood off and look at it. I scoff and see my future in my thoughts. I may either die or have a REAL family. I start to hear unwrapping until I see a hand sticking out with burnt marks.
"I understand..." Wing said, "But now we got to focus on getting out. But first, I want to show you something."
"Your arm." I said as I start to wipe the tears also.
"Yes. This... unique dagger that is stuck on top of our volcano. When I first touched it, this is what happened. It electrocuted me." she explained.
Quickly, without any hesitation, I grab her arm with my paws cuff and start to channel my lightning through to her arm. She then cries in pain until her arm start to heal with flesh sound healing. I let go of her arm and shake out the dizziness of energy I used to heal.
"There. Now, we got to get out of here. if that dagger had injured your paw by getting electrocuted, then it has to be mine." I said, "Try to find us a way out."
I look at my cuffs and begin to review my head.
Okay, so Su said that only I can't use my lightning. So all I got left is my Telekinesis. I thought.
I look at a key that was being hanged from a distance.
"Hey, Wing, is that the key to open these bars and these cuffs?" I asked.
"Yes, but they're so far away. How can we get them?" she asked.
"Just watch and learn." I said reaching out.
I start to picture the key in my head after closing my eyes and start to channel the energy flowing to my arms. I can hear the vibration of my arms until I feel something touching my paws. I open them and have the keys.
"Okay, I got them. Here and open the bars and me." I said tossing the keys into the hole in Wing's cell.
It takes a minute to unlock her bar, my bar, and then my cuffs.
"Thanks. Now, let's go." I said.
We start to sneak through the unknown troops behind the boxes of supplies and get to the roof.
Why would Su hire guards or mercenaries? I thought they do things independently. I thought.
Just as we got to the roof, a blue dagger was stuck on a black brown stone surrounded with lava. It was pretty hot outside than the inside.
"Looks pretty stuck onto the stone." I said.
"So, you came here to retrieve your memories, you said?" she asked.
"I didn't mention about myself retrieving it, but you can say that." I said.
"Well, I was thinking that if you grab that, then it should either give you some of your memories." she said.
"Good thinking." I said.
I look ahead and see that it was kind of far from where we were standing until we move forward and stop behind a rock.
"Is it guarded?" I asked.
"No. Just guarded with surroundings of lava." she said.
"Alright, you stay here while I get it." I said.
"I can't let you touch it." a voice said.
We both look behind us and see Su and her mercenaries. They were a couple of mercenaries behind her that looks strong pigs.
"What if I do touch it?" I asked.
"Guess you'll have to find out on your own." Su said, "Get him!"
They all charge at me until I grab Wing in bride style, jump to the highest part, and put Wing down.
"Stay here. I'll be back." I said before going back down.
I jump off the high ground, land on the surface with no damage, and was sort of cornered by mercenaries.
"Get him!" one of them said.
I kick the one coming at the others, grabs the person behind him, flips him to the pile, and kick the last to the pile. The last mercenary, which I think is the leader, circles around me with a dagger like a vulture.
"I hope your head is worth more than something." he said.
"Too bad you won't get the reward." I said.
He charges at me until I shoot a bolt at him and send him flying.
"Have a nice trip." I said.
but then a dagger was under my neck. I slowly look behind and see Wu playing with her finger with her mouth even though she has her mouth hidden.
"You don't want to mess with me." I said.
"Try me." she said.
I grab her hand, knock the dagger aside, trip her with a spinning kick, and chain with her lightning on the ground. She begins to struggle to get out, but fails to. I start to walk over to the river of lava and look ahead at the dagger.
If that can bring my memories back... I thought.
I jump over the river of lava and start to walk to the dagger. Suddenly, I turn around and Su jumping and slashes my left naked eye vertically.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHH!" I roared in pain holding my eye and fell onto the ground.
Slowly, I move my paw away from my eye and see blood dripping off my eye. I can't see but just darkness with my left eye. I look back up and see Su coming to jump again, but I blast her back to the ground and stand up. I slowly go for the dagger and reach it with my left bloody paw. I start to feel pain as the lightning starts to electrocute me. I almost roared in pain, but my eye felt worse. I then finally take it out, but then these memories of me shooting unusual lightning that I either never experience before or seen before. It soon ended when I saw 3 or 4 visions of me shooting unusual powers. I look at Su struggling to get up until my body suddenly slowly walking up to her, grabs her, and was going to stab her.
"STOP!" Wu's voice said.
I finally regain control of my body and look at Wu.
"Don't take her life, take mine!" she said, "Just let her go!"
I look back at Su with her unconscious probably from fear and back at Wu.
"I'm not going to take any of yours." I said.
I look at Wing coming down by climbing down and looks at me.
"I'm the Dragon Warrior. I don't take people's lives." I said.
Wing smiles. But then the place rumbles in a shake.
"Tell me that was just a false alarm of a rumble of a volcano." I said with my eye still in pain.
"No, it's going to erupt!" she said.
I then start to react.
"Shadow! Where are you?!" I shouted.
"I'm right here." Shadow said appearing.
"Where have you been?" I asked.
"I'll explain later. This place is about to blow!" he said.
"Get Wu over there, I got Su." I said carrying Su on my shoulder.
Shadow runs to Wu, looks at me, and then disappears where I hope somewhere safe.
"Wing, come with me!" I said.
"What?" she replied.
"Come with me and you can live life with good." I said.
"I don't know. I..." she said.
"You can still have time to redeem yourself. It's never too late." I said.
I pull out my paw to get her paw until she grabs it. I then use a move that I recently got from my visions was to teleport from here to the boat. I open my eyes and we were at the boat 20 ft. away from it.
"There's the boat! Go!" I shouted.
We both start to make a run for it as flaming magma comes raining down at us. I throw Su and Wing at the boat when a magma was about to hit me. Suddenly, a person was right by me that looked like me. He looks at me evilly and thrusts his hand at me. I went flying backwards until I hit a wooden platform and was knocked out.
"Kenji?" someone called out.
I shake my head and see Tenzen right in from of my face.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Uh, yea." I said getting up. I see the island explode from a distance.
"We got away as soon as you came flying backwards to the boat and we went a run for it." he said.
"Thanks..." I said as I start to feel pain on my eye.
"Come on, let's get that patched up." he said as he walks me to the medical room.
Several hours later as the night calms the water, I was outside with my eye bandaged around my head and my other wounds bandaged too. I look behind and see Wing in new clothes. She still look the same except her colors. Her skirt and shirt was used to be grey, but now it's blue.
"You look wonderful, Wing." I smiled.
"Do you like it?" she asked.
"Of course, I like it. Why wouldn't I like it?" I asked.
"Well, I thank you for saving us. All of us." she said.
"You're welcome. But how are you sisters?" I asked.
"They're resting. They're also upset of me betraying them." she explained.
"It's fine. They choose their path and they will either change their path or stay on their path." I said, "They don't control your path anymore."
"No, they don't. But, they were my only family left. Now, I have nothing." she said coldly.
"Hey, that's not true." I said grabbing her shoulder's, "You have me. I can be part of your family. You're my friend now."
"You're more than a friend to me, Kenji. You're more like a... like a brother." she said.
"Well, let's stick to that." I said going inside.
"One more thing before you go." she said.
"What is it?" I asked.
She comes up to me and then gives me a kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you again." she said.
"You're welcome." I said.
I went in my room with a sigh still in pain of my eye.
"Bothers you, huh." Shadow said.
"What, my eye?" I asked.
"Yea." he said.
"Well... yea." I said, "I can barely see through my right eye."
"Here, let me fix it for you." he said coming right in front of me.
He slowly unwraps the bandage off of my head and looks at it. He places his hand in front of my left eye and I start to see a glowing point with my left eye. Soon, I see a bright light shining at my left eye. Shadow removes his hand away and smiles.
"Hows that?" he asked.
I start to move around my left eye and now, I can see!
"Shadow! You-" I exclaimed.
"Yeah. I healed your eye, but one problem." he said.
"What is it?" I asked.
"You know when she didn't just slash your eye, but your skin too?" he explained.
"Yeah." I said.
"Your eye may have healed, but your wound hasn't." he explained.
I start to feel my eye and it hurt. I yelp a little bit and look at Shadow.
"Do I look good?" I asked.
"You still look injured. But maybe in several days, you'll be all healed besides your eye. It might come out to be a scar." he said.
"I know." I said.
Shadow looks up and sighs.
"Council. Got to go." he said.
"Wait, before you go, can I ask you a question?" I asked.
"Sure." he said.
"When I grab this dagger." I said showing the dagger to him, "I received a few visions of me using unusual powers that I never used or seen before. What are they?"
"Well, maybe not just your memories has scattered, but maybe your powers too." Shadow guessed, "I don't know. But we'll have to figure it out later."
"Sounds good. Have fun." I said.
"Councils are not fun. Trust me." he said before he disappears.
I look back at my walls until the Voice comes back talking to me by my head hurting.
"You fool. I will come out soon enough." it said.
"Shut up! I will not allow you!" I growled.
"It's futile, boy." it said, "I don't eat, neither sleep, and I will never stop! Mark my words!"
The Voice starts to fade away as my head starts to feel better.
I promise to Tigress that I will come back. I never go back on my promise. I thought clutching my fist.
"I never do." I said.
Well, that's the end of his very first journey! Phew! This took a very long time to process and think through. But hope you guys enjoy this one! X) There will be another journey, but if you guys want me to create another. If you guys want to figure out more to it.
