Now, we will see what the emperor's answer is.
All the master's and ninjas were staring at the emperor for his answer. The emperor started to chuckle, and it got louder and louder, until it was a full out laugh. He said,"Oh, that's all you want? Why don't I just give you another thousand and make it ten thousand. Also, I'll send you home with gold and silver and precious jewels. A cartload for each of you." Shifu replied,"That is all very generous of you, but we don't really need any of the jewels or gold or silver." The emperor said,"It is quite alright. Just use it to make your schools and towns better. It still is not enough for saving the life of my daughter, but it is all I can give." Simba said,"Thank you, your highness." The emperor said cheerfully,"It is not a problem. Rest here for tonight. Then, continue your journey tomorrow. I will send my troops with you as well." They all then went into their rooms for rest until the next morning.
The masters and ninjas were up at sunrise again. No one else was up, so they went to train for the battle that would take place that day. The only place open enough was the garden maze that the emperor had. It was an...impressive training session. After about an hour, the emperor had woke up. He went out to his balcohny to see the masters training. He smiled at their training, able to do such impressive moves without even ruining his hedges. He walked down to watch it at a closer distance. The general came to the emperor and said,"Sir, the troops are ready." "Thank you. I will tell the masters." The general bowed and left. The emperor the said to the masters,"Attention, my guests." They all stopped what they were doing and got to where they could all see the emperor. The emperor continued,"The soldiers are ready to leave whenever you are." They all then started leaping over the hedges to where the emperor was. Shifu then said,"Thank you for your hospitality." Then he, along with the rest, all bowed. The emperor said,"It was not a problem at all. I am just glad I could help someone who saved my daughter." The masters and ninjas then left with the small army helping them.
It was about noon and they were about to the camp. Simba was by Tigress, and asked,"How did DB get stuck in your dimension for two years?" Tigress replied,"He disobeyed his boss and so it was his punishment. He was banished for six of his months, but two of our years." Simba then nodded in understanding. Then, Shifu moved some bushes to reveal the camp. He then said,"The ninjas will take out the leader to try to get DB's location, since they have faced him before. The rest of us will go down to the camp to take out the troops. Ninjas, do not attack until we have made a distraction by attacking." They all nodded in agreement and left to go their ways.
The masters all surrounded the camp in the forest by it with the soldiers. The ninjas were close to the master's tent waiting for the battle to commence. Shifu then signaled for the charge to start. The master's and soldiers came in fast and hard. The army in the camp had been ready for an attack. All they had to do was stand up and grab their weapons, which was to slow for some of them. The army and masters quickly slaughtered the firt hundred. The ninjas then jumped into the leader's tent. They saw a familiar vulture with the scar of a thirteen in his left cheek. The vulture chuckled and said,"I figured the ninjas would come. I just didn't think they would be here when I have not yet captured their leader." The ninjas were confused. The Informant said,"It's a trick! ATTACK!" The ninjas did as they were told. The traitor had improved since their last encounter. He was pushing them all back. He had the most trouble with the Informant, but he was still better. The ninjas had all been pushed to the outer edge of his tent. They were panting, as well as him. They charged again.
The masters and soldiers were doing well. Few soldiers and no masters had fallen. The other side lost another two hundred since the start of the battle. Simba had seen that the ninjas were having trouble with the master, so he got Tigress and Po, along with the ladies of the shade, to go with him to where the leader was. They snuck into the tent and Po got the attention of the leader. Simba had been hidden by the ladies of the shade. He snuck out to go around to enter under the back of the tent. It had worked. The traitor had been to focused on the ninjas, Tigress, Po, and the Ladies of the Shade to notice. Simba did an open palm strike behind him. He was then launched into Po, who used his stomach to knock him to the side, towards Tigress. She roundhouse kicked him to the ground. Po then slammed onto him. Tigress helped him up. The traitor was sunk into the ground and knocked out. They pulled him out and threw him into a cage that was by his throne. They then stepped out and seen that the army was down to only athousand members. Simba said," Let's help them finish. Ninjas, just make sure he doesn't escape." The Informant said with an unoticable smirk,"Like we would let him out of our sights." Simbe smirked and turned to go to the fight.
Tigress, Simba, Tai Lung, and Po made a chain, launching Po towards the army. As they were turning, Tai Lung planted his foot and, using their momentum, launched Tigress. Then Simba launched Tai Lung the same way. He then charged at the army himself. The army was down to five hundred and shrinking. Simba, Tigress, Po, Tai Lung, and the Ladies of the Shade were coming at them from in one direction with the masters and eight thousand of the emperors soldiers from the other. Po and Tigress fought as a unit, taking out many of their oppenents. Simba ducked under them and sweep kicked a soldier, then uppercut his chin as he was falling. As he was going up, Tigress swung Po, which then launched him into another group.(A/N: I guess that guy was having an off day, don't ya think?) Shifu then kicked a wolf over towards Tai Lung, who paralyzed him. Another soldier was about to attack Tai Lung from behind, but he was taken out by Song. She then used her umbrella to leap over Tai Lung, then opened her umbrella to knock out five other soldiers. Simba started running, knelt down and slid with his arms out, knocking down another group. He jumped up at the end of the slide and did a split kick on two solldiers.
They finally got down to the last one. He put his hands up like he was going to surrender. Simba went up to him to start interogating him. But, as soon as he got up to him, the soldier pulled out two swords and sliced Simba's arm. He then kicked him in the chest and was about to strike again, but an arrow got shot in his eye and he fell down beside Simba. The german sheperd turned to see The Informant with a bow out. They then looked at their own losses. The Ladies of the Shade lost three members. The emperors soldiers lost a total of 4,361. The rest had non-fatal injuries. They then went to the tent where the traitor was.
He was just waking up. Shifu grabbed him and yelled,"WHERE IS DB!?" The Traitor wiped some spit off his face. He then said,"First: Ew. Second:Tell that fat panda that it is not fair to throw his weight around. Third:I never even had a succesful mission in capturing him. None of my soldiers even returned." Shifu growled at him and said,"Ninjas, torture him." The traitor said,"No! Please no. I am being honest!" Then the Informant said,"I know how to torture him. I know these two ninjas of love that will love to see him. If he doesn't tell us, I could just bring them." The Informant had a cocky attitude, knowing that he would tell the truth. The traitor pleaded,"NO! ANYTHING BUT THAT! I DON'T KNOW WHERE HE IS!" The Informant sighed and said,"He's telling the truth." Shifu said,"How do you know?" The Informant said,"Any ninja would give up information before facing a ninja of love that is in love with them. Even DB. He isn't easy on prying information from." Shifu said,"Fine, we'll all head home then."
They stopped by the emperors house. The Emperor said,"I hope you find your student soon. I can only imagine the pain you must feel. I know this isn't much, but it is something." He handed him a suit of armor of pure gold and said,"This was made as a cerimonial suit that has always stood at ceremonies. It's the most I can do for you." Shifu smile dand replied,"Thank you. This will go nicley inside the Sacred hall of Warriors." The masters bowed. The Emperor returned the bow. They all smiled and left. The emperor chuckled and said,"What a strange culture where even the most noble of people bow to say hello or goodbye." He went inside his palace to watch them go from the top floor.
The walk home was quiet. When they reached the Valley of Peace, Shifu, the Five, and Po just left their carts by the poor corner, which were quickly emptied by the people. They walked up the steps. Viper then asked,"Where will we search for DB now?" Shifu replied,"I'm not sure. We will just have to hope we find him soon." He finished his sentence as he opened the door to the palace, which revealed DB with bloody knuckles and broken fingers. The Five, Po, Simba, and even Shifu ran and hugged him. DB said,"Wow, all this for not being at the Palace for a single day of training?" They all said,"It has been near a week!" DB said,"Oh, doesn't that mean it's time for Simba to go? No offence." Simba replied,"None taken. Where have you been?" DB replied,"The ironwood forest. Nonstop punching of the ironwood trees. Tigress, are my hands supposed to be numb?" Tigress replied,"Yes." Everyone was on the boiling point, but Shifu let it show."YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT WE SPENT ALL THIS WEEK SEARCHING FOR YOU AND RISKING OUR LIVES WHEN YOU WERE IN THE IRON WOOD FOREST!?" DB was shocked, then he seen the Traitor. He then knew what had transpired. He said,"Well, ya. Ya see, I was just taking in the scenery when I was attacked. I threw all of them over the cliff. I figured to take out my frustrations on the iron wood trees. I guess I didn't see the note then because of my anger, but now that I think about it, it was there. Ley me guess, I've got to fight all these masters, the Ladies of the Shade, all my ninjas, and all of the other groups, right?" Shifu said,"Correct. Now, send Simba home." DB did and brought out the rest of his ninjas. Shifu told the masters how DB fights. DB then got into his battle stance, a ninja painter was ready. Then, DB said,"Well, looks like it will be no hands for me, since they are broken." Shifu thn yelled,"ATTACK!" They all charged at DB, who charged back.
Use your imagination for the fight. My laptop battery is low, so I'm gonna stop the story here. Please review.
