Alright, I've got my OC's and they're going to be introduced later in the story. Anyway, to Scaled wolf, I think I'm gonna change your OC to a female because there's not enough females in the group, so if you can, send me a name. Disclaimer: I don't own anything I shouldn't.
Chapter 10: On Guard
It had been several hours since Seff and Edon went inside the time chamber. Monkey, Mantis, Cobra, and Po were on guard duty for the day while Tigress, Viper and Crane were sleeping for the night shift.
The sun was going down, which means their shift was almost over.
Po was sitting on a rock looking around while Monkey and Mantis were sitting against the cliffside.
"Ugh, I'm bored!" implied Mantis as he shifted positions.
"Yeah, me too, I wonder what Seff and Edon are up to." Po wondered. So many questions went through his head about what was in that place. He could only wonder what was in there and what they were doing. What was the inside like? How were they training? Are they even training at all? What will they look like when they come back out? Po couldn't help but just keep wondering.
Just then, Po heard something off in the distance.
"You guys hear that?" Po asked as he stood up, on guard.
"Uhh, I don't hear anything, Po." Monkey replied.
As if on cue, The three heard footsteps coming from both directions. They each looked left and right to see several figures approaching.
The four got up and entered their stances, ready to fight these guys off.

Meanwhile, back inside the time chamber, Seff and Edon were under intense training. They had been in here for 3 months and they've greatly improved their skills.
Inside the chamber was a marble room that contained one's basic needs. 2 bedrooms, a bath house, a vast storage of food, and an indoor river to clean laundry. However, the training took place outside of the room.
When you walk outside of the room, there's a few rounded steps that leads to a wide open area covered in rock boulders and pillars. Once you walk off of those steps, you will expirence the intense gravity of the training area. Seff and Edon were already used to the gravity and trained all day, every day in it.
They haven't slept in weeks. The only reason they did sleep is literaly falling asleep from exhaustion.
Now, they were sparring against eachother. They unlocked the ability to use chi power from a scroll that was here. They've been using regularly in their attacks.
Edon and Seff stood 10 meters away, in their stances, focusing on eachother. They stood there, doing nothing but listening to the ticking of the clock. Their clothes were tattered and shredded, their fur was ruffled and burned in some places, and covered in cuts and bruises.
They then lunged at eachother, fighting at their fullest, as if they never felt the pain, which for the most part didn't. They fought equally until Seff gained the upper hand.
Seff landed hit after hit and finished the combo off with a charged chi palm slam, sending Edon into a rock pillar creating a small cave.
Seff fell into his stance, ready for anything. He focused sharply on the cave. He then saw a blue ball of energy charge and then shoot at him. Seff quickly readied his own blast and fired back at Edon, creating a blast battle.
They were giving it everything they had, not backing down or letting up. Knowing that they were equal, they pushed towards eachother, compressing the blast. They now were just meters away from eachother. They put more energy into their blast, creating a huge explosion.
Both wolves were knocked back, buried in rubble and debris. After a monent, they skakily got back up and continued fighting, still at their fullest.

Po, Monkey, Cobra and Mantis finished fighting off the attackers and were panting lightly.
"That...*Pant*... was fun." Po commented. Monkey and Mantis just nodded.
Just then, Tigress, Viper, and Crane wokeup from their sleep.
"It's about time you guys woke up." Po said as he walked over to them.
"It's kina hard to sleep when there's fighting right outside your door." Crane joked.
"Yeah well, good luck." Cobra said as he slithered past them. When he slithered past Viper, they gave eachother a glance and quickly looked away.
Monkey, Mantis, Po and Cobra then went to get ready to go to sleep while Tigress, Viper and Crane stood guard of the door and cave.

Back in the chamber, it had been 6 months now and Seff and Edon were exhausted.
They haven't slept in months, and those months were filled with constant fighting. Seff and Edon shakily climbed from the rubble again and limped off to the bath house to relax for once in 6 months.
They ran some water and then stripped down to their undergarments and then climbed into the tubs. They let their heads fall back and sighed.
After about 10 minutes, they got out of the tubs, dried off, and changed into a fresh pair of clothes, and then went to get something to eat. They haven't eaten in a week and a half so the dinner table was full. They cooked turkey, steak, mashed potatoes, 2 pizzas, salad, and a fruit coctail. They licked their lips and then chowed down.

Back outside, It had been 12 hours out of the 24 and Viper, Tigress, and Crane were still on watch. Crand had his hat covering his head leaning near the mouth of the cave, Viper was curled up waiting for something to happen, while Tigress was on top of a boulder, meditating.
Tigress then popped open her eyes and said "They're coming.". The others stood up on guard now.
No sooner did they hear footsteps coming their way. They got into their stances and prepaired themselves.

Back in the chamber, it had been 11 months and 28 days. The time to come back was almost here.
Seff adn Edon were training harder than ever now. They were in the field fighting as if it were their last. Neither stopped for a second and kept fighting.
The environment was just about destroyed from their long year here.
Only 2 pillars were left out of the hundreds that were there when they started. Seff and Edon were standing across from eachother on each pillar. Their clothes were tattered, their fur was ruffled and burned, and their strength still full.
They stared at eachother, looking for a weakness, but found none. They jumped towards eachother, shattering the last 2 pillars. Before one could even blink, fists connected with faces.
Seff quickly regained control and tried to punch Edon, but Edon grabbed his fist and tried to punch with his other, which was caught by Seff. Edon then opened up his arms and head-butted Seff, shortly stunnung him. Edon then pulled his hands behind him charged chi in his hands and then forced them forward.
Seff was knocked back, shattering several rocks along the sprinted towards where Seff was and continued their battle.

Back outside, everyone was awake and exhausted. They had fought of several waves of warriors and now resting, waiting for Seff and Edon to finish.
It wasn't long until they heard yet another wave of warriors came towards them.
"I don't think I got much fight left in me." Cobra said, getting into his stance.
Everyone else followed suite and entered their stance. The fighters now were kung fu fighters. It was a hard fought battle, but with the fatigue, our masters were defeated. The last one fighting was Master Tigress, but she was hopelessly outnumbered.
She was grabbed by the neck and thrown to the floor. The fighter flipped her over and raised his foot, ready to finish it. Tigress cringed, waiting for the finishing blow, but just before he was about to end it there, they heard a bell ring. The door swung open. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the door.
2 wolves walked out and stopped. they looked around to see many kung fu fighters and the kung fu masters laying on the ground, beaten badly.
Then before a muscle could even flex, 2 wolves turned into 2 blurs. Within 2 seconds, the 2 wolves stood back where they were and all of the fighters fell limply to the ground.
Everyone stood amazed at what had just occured. Seff and Edon then walked over to the masters and helped them up.
They then walked into the cave and had everyone's things.
"Let's get out of here." said Edon. Everyone slowly nodded.
"But how do we get back up?" asked Po.
"Follow us." replied Edon as he punched the wall, leaving a fist-sized whole. Seff did the same and they made a ladder back up. Everyone climbed back up to the top. Once everyone was at the top, Seff and Edon proceeded, still carrying everyone's things, including their own.
"C'mon, I know a friend that can take us back to the valley." said Edon as he and the others proceeded back to the village.
Okay, I'm really sorry for the suckish ending, but I really just wanted to get this chapter done, so here it is. Till next time. Peace. Oh, and 'll be waiting for that name, ScaledWolf. Cheers.
