Ch. 8: Flower in my Heart
That night, Drago saw the surprise: fifteen paper boats each with a white chrysanthemum flower on it. Drago is very surprised by it,
"But how?" Drago asks with wonder.
"This is Jade's idea," Jackie explained.
"My mom owns her own florist shop, so I asked her to lend my some flowers for a friend," Jade explained.
"Thank you, Jade," Drago said as he hugs her.
"I'm just gonna look around the palace more," Holly said as she changes back.
Holly was about to give the Monkey Talisman back to Shendu.
"That's okay, Holly," Shendu said, "You can keep the Monkey talismans. You've used its magic wisely, and you earned it. It's nice to know the Power of the Monkey is in safe hands…or paws anyway."
Holly is happy about this. She runs back to the palace. When she arrives back at the palace, she could hear the night make music and see Meilin's spirit. This is her cue to sing "Flower in my Heart":
"You lift us up and let us fly,
You give us strength to reach the sky.
You plant seeds with love and sow,
When you plant, they always grow.
I see a field that I can see
Because you watch over me.
Chorus:
When Winter comes, you bring Spring
While on Earth, I have wings.
I believe in brand new starts
'Cause of the Flower in My Heart.
From the smallest pebble in the earth,
To the greatest love in my heart.
You are there in spirit,
And fill my soul with merit.
I close my eyes and feel you there
When I see rain and sun glare,
You are everywhere.
Chorus:
When winter comes, you bring spring
While on Earth, I have wings.
I believe in brand new starts
'Cause of the Flower in My Heart.
While Holly sings the song for Meilin, Drago and the others each take a boat and float it into the sea as they carry a flower. This is a way for Meilin's Spirit to be guided home. Drago, Shendu, Bai Tsa, and Hsi Wu are remembering what they love about Meilin: Shendu remembers how they met, their wedding day, and when Drago was born; Bai Tsa remembers how they use to water the plants together; Hsi Wu remembers how he accidently trip in the roses and he, Meilin, and Bai Tsa laugh about it; and Drago remembers himself as a kids and how he helped her in the garden. Ice puts his hand on Drago's shoulder.
"You never gonna lose us, D-Dude," Ice said as the J-Teens gather around Drago.
Meilin smiles, knowing her son is on the path of goodness and that he has friends who care for him.
