Announcement:
This and the next few chapters have been coming for a long time, again, and I figured while I worked on my fics, I would also work on my others as well; which includes this, as this is a remake with a twist of sorts.
I don't fully recall the series or even own it, but I wanted to retry my idea of a JCA Story with only adding HP in the mix, and I figured maybe it would be better this time around. And also, hints of other franchises, and not the franchises themselves except for the characters until my Main OC of this story, along with Jade, are older (11-17/18) as most will try and cover my mixed cannon with my own for Hogwarts Years.
So yes, some, not all, of any given franchise characters may end up being in the storyline. Just do expect some hints or others as you read whom or to what the future plots would be for later use, and from its previous deleted story: Jade Chan and The Keybakto, I learned my lesson from it… As the story progresses, possibly expect the return of various specific OC.
But I would also like to at least thank the mix of the Wiki Pages provided, alongside the Youtube Channel User: Throwback Toons, for making me progress and aid further for at least most of what I can of the first season of the show, as I will have to look into for the others. Also "Dailymotion" Site for said Franchise as well.
So yes, I will try and look into the series itself but I think it is going to be a five or six female pairing with Jade (Alpha) including a new HP Female OC (Main), and a few characters that either before or during the fourth year (during either the first year or before the tourney and after), would take an interesting turn of events to what the hints of a crossover are, and also one of the girls being a HP Character as well.
The female HP OC will also have either Servants or Guardians based on the outcomes of things with them being into their relationships as well, or being solo… Mainly up to me on that, and if suggested, even Jade or others.
If I don't detail specific people, they are based on the show itself or the placement of where they come from, but in the show's style for them (for your imagination).
So I hope you all like this and so everyone and the site knows, I don't own any of the JCA or the Movie Versions of the HP Characters. Though to note, I will be adjusting the ages of specific characters to go with the adjustments of said characters. And it will stick with the JCA Plot a bit yet with a hinted touch of yours truly, as hints of things to occur or come.
Also, I only own the OC I made for the story itself, and if you see {This}, it would mean it's someone's OC being mentioned after being introduced with their maker's name.
I am also working on my other fics as well, so don't worry about my thinking I forgot about them. Just wanted to get this story and a few chapters or so up for it.
To mention, this is a High-T Fic, not M-Fic, so there are hints of things, but that's it.
So with that out of the way… Enjoy the upcoming chapters for Season 1, especially my touch versions, and know I will only make an Announcement if it needs it.
(Chapters 1-12 fixed on June 17th to 18th of 2022)
Surrey, England, September 3rd of 1999, Friday, around 3:54 AM:
Within this part of the world, and town, a child was attempting to escape from the home she was raised not of love, but hate, within Four Privet Drive… Again.
She was covered in a full-body emerald green stitched blanket that she was able to at least keep, small ebony and a green backpack filled with her most precious possessions, and a stuffed black wolf of sorts that was placed into a slot for it.
Some of which were books given to her, and some her cousin had no time for as well.
She adjusted the blanket which she knew held her full name, and quietly moved within the darkness of the home and tried to not make a sound.
She knew what would happen if she got caught again, and froze in place as she saw her Uncle: Vernon Dursley was snoring thankfully to her half-wary and relief, with the remote within his hands and the TV on, as it looked like he stood up later than usual.
For you see, everyone, this child had a destiny before her yet she did not know that, and managed to find the spare key under the indoor welcome mat, and tried to not make a sound as she unlocked it.
Carefully, she opened the door and winced from a small creak when it was open enough and warily glanced as she saw Vernon was still asleep yet scratched his stomach, and quickly left out of it while soon closing the door gently, then tossing the key into the direction of the rose garden her Aunt: Petunia Dursley, forced her to garden without gloves at punishment times, and fled.
She didn't know where she was going to try and flee to this time, but she wasn't going to stay in this town anymore and as told by her so-called kin, of being a freak.
Things oddly happened to her during her time within the town over her time growing up within it, and the people that we're friends with her Uncle made sure her life was a living hell.
The child soon held back a wince in her lower place still feeling like it was on fire from a few nights ago by her Uncle's friends taking her to a secluded place when she was half-awake after eating food, but she barely recalled what happened to cause her special place to burn.
She shivered though from the cold air as she managed to at least make it to the school grounds to take a breather as she cuddled with her blanket on the swing set while holding into the plastic holding the one she sat in, up.
She did ignore the misty breath she did as she took a slight deep breath and exhaled, as she saw the partial clouds and starry sky once she gazed upwards, as despite being the first season of school, England was undergoing early winter weather.
She jumped as a voice soon spoke within her mind, a rich yet slightly empowered male voice of sorts, as she resumed looking upwards to the sky and soon saw a few shooting stars pass by, "Do you think this time, they will allow you to escape from this place?"
The child did a shrug as she didn't know, and heard the male voice sigh to itself as a few years ago before things she barely recalled, she was made mute by how much pain and abuse she was placed, and most of her more severe memories were secretly blocked from outside sources.
"Then it would be best to get away from those things that are called human, then?" The male voice suggests as she did a wordless sigh and nodded once, and got up with her covering herself further into the blanket, and after nearly ten or so minutes out, she was able to get out of the city limits with feeling her friend, the voice, started warming her up only slightly as she didn't know where to go next.
Her eyes looked from underneath the blanket to her left, and then to her right from soon coming into a property that said 'No Trespassing', and saw an old car parked close by.
Seeing that could be a bit better than being out in the open until dawn, she heard a grunt of agreement from her voice friend as she managed to get into the cold car without difficulty.
"I will alert you in case trouble comes, Youngling. You need to rest as you have been traveling in your so-called garments in the chilly air. For a time." The voice told her as through her eyes, and sensations, the child yawned mutely before feeling her friend warm her decently for a nice slumber… Only to be awoken by him in urgency, she quickly grabbed her things and took off without looking back, a few hours later, "Youngling! Move now! The Cloaked Ones are on their way!"
The child was soon running in the woods nearby her and with her also trying to avoid having her blanket torn by the stray smaller trees or bushes while hearing the sounds of heavier footsteps going against the twigs and whatnot on the remains of the snowy ground.
The child herself was panicking as she doesn't want to go back there, and even forget what she has done once again to them, her voice friend made sure to inform her if that happens and managed to unblock it, successfully.
She soon saw a large cave of sorts that looked hideable and agreed with her friend as she hastily went into it and ran further and further down the cave itself with her soon stopping on a large rock of sorts and wordlessly trying to take a gasping breath for herself.
She blinked as her eyes easily adjusted in the dark, and saw that she was soon lost as she was in the center of a large cavernous system with stalagmites and the opposite, perfectly placed to make it a beautiful way for her, and soon saw a small opening of moonlight show and aided her to see better of realizing that she was in a deep part of wherever she was.
She stiffened though as she heard those footsteps and hasty shouting that echoed within the caverns to know those cloaked people managed to realize she came into this place, and soon randomly ran once again without seeing the tunnel she entered, held a Chinese-like Latin sigil that dimly glowed to conceal the entrance she entered as those cloaked ones, didn't see it, and went into the farther tunnel to try and find her.
She ran while trying to get air into her lungs and her voice friend that oddly enough, sounds like Michael McConnohie, tried guiding her until she tripped, and barrel rolled right into a stone door with a picture of a western dragon of sorts on it.
She shook her head as she shakily stood to gather her bearings and blinked with a few steps back in surprise as the door fell with a slight thud sound.
Sensing her curiosity and something within the passage, the voice urged her to go on after sensing the cloaked ones were not following her.
The child did, and as she was going further and further into it, she saw old torches mysteriously light up by her touching only one, accidentally, and blinked at seeing a sword stuck in stone in the center of a moonlit opening above, majestically revealing it, as, despite the vines and wild plant life growing around it and on it, it looked well preserved and still new.
The walls, however, held pictures and whatnot the child ignored, as she walked carefully toward the pretty weapon.
The weapon was large enough for what would be an easy carry and was a mix of Eastern and European mixture with the metal looking to be a mix of silver and more. The blade itself was perfected and resembled closer to a long sword yet with a few gemstones, colored diamonds of blue, red, and green in the order, in the shape of a pentagon-based stone with unknown sigils inscribed in each center. The blade also had tribal-like etchings in the center as both outer edges looked decently sharp. The handle was wrapped in some sort of hiding with the sides having a bone-based edge that was carved perfectly to be smooth and closer to a white opal in design with rose vine-like etchings around it. The grip was matching to the green-based hide as well, but the top was that of a black pearl.
Not known to the child, however, there was brief shadowy energy of sorts that briefly showed before her arrival.
The child saw how pretty the blade was, and the voice sensed the energy from the blade itself yet said nothing as she was close to it, and with her soon recalled the stories of King Arthur from the books she read about in her school's library, climbed up the rock a bit and gripped both of her hands on the blade itself with her making sure her blanket was still secure and began to pull it out.
The sword made a brief glow of sorts as the child herself kept tugging at it not seeing rune work dimly glowing an ethereal blue around her on the floor and secretly, testing her, and she soon did a wordless yelp after the fifth hard tug as she fell on her behind with seeing she was easily holding the sword and was soon marveling at it.
She mouthed the word, pretty, and oddly felt the blade humming at her in a way, it pleased her friend, with being impressed with the weapon itself in secret.
Without warning, the area began to shake and with her yelping wordlessly, saw the stone lower itself before an unexpected swirling vortex soon formed and began to pull her into it.
The child held herself with her having one hand on the rock she was trifling to pull herself away from the vortex, but the other hand had her new blade.
She then slipped with her silently yelling a wordless scream as the hellish vortex fully consumed her, and vanished.
Within San Francisco, California, around 8PM or so at night:
The vortex spat out the child with her blinking as the weapon she thought was pretty, transformed into a bone-white bracelet with those three gemstones from the blade itself, as the three main accessories.
She then shakily got up with her covering herself as she was confused with her glancing upwards at seeing the vortex close in on itself, and saw she was no longer in the cave, but within a city of sorts.
"Perhaps it would be wise to see where you are, despite it being that of night, Youngling." The male voice suggests to which she hesitated but nodded, and with her securing her bag and blanket on herself a bit more, began walking out of the alleyway and blinked at seeing that she must be in a popular city at best, and glanced left and right as she decided to take care of her blanket for now as it was warm, and revealed herself out in the open.
She was around a few inches shorter than a six-year-old, as she is nine years of age, and was petite yet frail-looking as she wore thin male clothing with some stains and hints of old blood on them, meant for a boy twice her size that she adjusted to fit her frame. She had ebony-black hair with some natural silvery highlights on her right side, a delicate and heart-shaped face with minor sharp features as her widely squarish eyes held a beautiful set of emerald coloring irises yet there seems to be demonic-looking pupils with her sclera being a natural bloodshot color and having hints of a cool-grey color around the outer rims of her irises as well. She also had naturally trimmed eyebrows, and on her forehead within her bangs, was a faded lightning bolt-shaped scar. Her skin, however, was a natural porcelain color.
The child looked at the blanket though, with her wiping her eyes from reading the name, Camelia, and stuffed it into her bag neatly with her then adjusted her bag, and cautiously began to walk around the city to find out where she is, and maybe find a place to spend the night.
Meanwhile further or around seven or so blocks from the child, Camelia, was a skyscraper that belonged to a group of criminals of sorts.
At the moment, the owner of the building was mainly scolding his three main henchmen, to what they labeled themselves as The Enforcers, within the main aspect of the building itself which was at the highest aspect of the skyscraper itself.
To mention the three, the first is an Irish background. His main outfit consists of a '70s white disco suit over a pink long-sleeved, button-up shirt, and blue-black shoes. He has pale, greyish skin and red hair, which he wears with old-fashioned sideburns. He wears a gold pendant around his neck.
The second is above average in height, being slight. He has greyish-green skin and short, spiky, black hair. His most iconic feature is the bandage that he wears over his nose as a fashion statement. His main outfit consists of a long-sleeved, collared, white shirt under a black dress coat, with a light red tie. He also wears black slacks and black dress shoes.
The final member is of Chinese descent, he has black, spiky hair and dark brown eyes, and is the physically shortest of the Enforcers. His trademark is a pair of orange sunglasses. Unlike his two comrades, who wear suits, he dresses more casually with a grey t-shirt and black jacket. He also wears black pants and black shoes.
These are Finn, Ratso, and Chow in that order.
The man making them wince as he was chewing them out, is tall and athletic, he is shown to be wearing a green suit over a black shirt and yellow tie. He has blue eyes, a medium-tan skin tone, and shoulder-length, flaxen blonde hair (which he keeps tied back in a ponytail). He also has a small gold earring.
This is Valmont, the Leader of the Dark Hand.
Valmont paused in his belittling of his three henchmen as he glanced from the statue that is a Chinese and European dragon, in a greenish skin-based tone and had at this moment, glowing red eyes and seeing the limbs are wrapped up in a swirl with his head being the center, leaving twelve slots to be inserted in a semicircle under his head. "Valmont, are your men blind? It would seem those possessed of sight might have taken note that the shield contained no talisman. Now, if my promise to you of unspoiled riches were as empty as that shield..." Ignoring his men to speak to themselves quietly, Valmont responded then, "Rest assured, Shendu. You will have your talisman. And I will ensure that Jackie Chan never again interferes with the Dark Hand. Ever. We will get back the Rooster Talisman with ease."
Shendu dimmed his eyes before or if it could, stiffened, as it felt some unknown power to intrigue him, was close by yet decided to wait and find it after the fools left it or otherwise him alone, and told him firmly, "See that you do. I want them."
Valmont bowed in respect as he and the enforcers left with the statue soon summoning with a brief glow of his eyes, a single entity that came forth from the shadows and kneeled in respect to the statue.
It was mostly humane looking with light-blue skin and red eyes, and in black ninja clothing and sporting weapons such as shuriken and katanas, and to mention, very skilled in infiltration and martial arts.
"There is a power I have secretly felt to arrive far out from this mortal-built city, and I want you to track it down and bring it here for my inspection, at a precise time," Shendu ordered as the entity, a race of what was dubbed as Shadowkhan and considered the type, Ninja, stood up and bowed before sinking into the shadows.
Meanwhile, with Camelia, an hour or so later, she was lost.
She learned she was in America by secretly snatching a newspaper from a closed open stand, more importantly, within San Francisco itself.
Camelia was still walking further ahead as at times, she did have to pause with feeling like she was being watched, and she soon stopped nearby a restaurant and smelled the food.
Her stomach let out a loud gurgle and saw the back door nearby was open and decided to try and sneak food and maybe use the restroom, by her friend's reluctant suggestion.
Within the restaurant, people were dining in there and with a family of three, as well.
The first is portrayed as an old man in his 70s of average height and a skinny build. He has gray hair that appears to spike in many directions. His main outfit consists of white polo under a yellow polyester vest, blue jeans, and brown dress shoes. He also wears small, round, armless glasses on the bridge of his nose.
The second is a man in his mid-thirties with average stature and a "solid" build. His features include a square jaw, wide nose, soft, brown eyes with thick eyebrows, and short black hair. His most common outfit consists of a light blue sweater, tan trousers, and brown running shoes.
The last is a nine-year-old girl with short ivory-jet black hair, wide-delicate reddish-brown eyes, and a heart-shaped face and thin yet delicate lips, as an Asian-skinned girl. She wears a white long-sleeved shirt covered by an orange sweatshirt, blue jeans, and red sneakers without socks. She is also three feet tall and has a petite figure for a tomboy.
These were in order: Uncle, Jackie Chan, and Jade Chan.
Though no one else knows Uncle's full name, that's a nickname he was stuck by from the family and those of his few rare customers.
"Chinese food? I just moved here from Hong Kong. Can't we get some Tex-Mex?" Jade complains to her family as there was a restaurant further ahead that sold that, but she was ignored by them as Uncle informed her actual uncle, Jackie that is, "Jackie, the Rooster Talisman possesses enormous power." Hearing this, Jade scoops the Rooster Talisman up from the table and curiously stated, "What's it do?"
Jackie looked disapproving as he snatched the talisman from his cousin and niece, and made her pout for only a moment, "Manners, Jade."
Uncle wasn't perturbed by this as he informed his nephew then, and trying to curb Jade's curiosity, "Ancient legends speak of twelve talismans, one for each animal of the Chinese Zodiac." He then displays a table menu depicting the twelve animals of the Chinese Zodiac. "Each possessing a different magic."
This truly caught Jade's interest as she asked him then, ignoring Jackie's look at her, as she got up and stood near the old man to inwardly amuse him, "What kind of magic?"
"Jade!" Jackie tells her off as he guides Jade back to her seat, and Uncle, not bothered by her curious mind, continued his words, "Legend also says the talismans were scattered to the four corners of the globe. If this or any talisman should fall into evil hands-" "Jackie'll give 'em smack with his lightning fists of steel!" Jade states as she bangs her fist against the table, knocking over the tableware whilst alarming a young couple sitting across the room at another table.
Jade only smiled sheepishly with her glancing at the back and blinked at thinking she thought she saw a ragged-looking kid sneakily head to the restroom as Jackie waves apologetic to the couple who nod and resume eating.
"Hey, when are you gonna teach me some of your moves?" Jade asked Jackie as she then folds her arms irritated by his words, "Later, Jade."
Jackie picks the Rooster Talisman up from the table, "Uncle, do you believe in such a myth?" He is then purposely whacked across the head with a pair of chopsticks by Uncle. "Ow!"
"Does that answer your question?" Uncle stared at him in a way Jackie sighed before seeing Jade wasn't in her seat, and heard her state on an empty table near them, "Jackie, check me out! I got the moves!" She attempts to demonstrate her fighting abilities, "Ha! Hyah!" She flings two kicks into the air, almost losing her balance after the second one. "Woah!"
"Jade! Not indoors!" Jackie exclaimed as inadvertently kicked a passing waiter carrying a tray of food, causing him to knock into a table that launches a bowl of noodles into the air and landed right on Uncle's head. Whilst trying to remove the bowl, Uncle knocks over a candle on the table which begins to set fire to the tablecloth.
"Fire!" Jackie exclaimed, and rushed off, dropping the Rooster Talisman onto the table which lands neatly in the concave of a spoon. He subsequently pulls a tablecloth from the aforementioned couple's table, using it to suffocate and extinguish the fire. After Uncle manages to yank the bowl off his head, he tosses it over his shoulder which then crashes against the spoon on the table, launching the Rooster Talisman into the air, causing it to fly across the room and land in a bowl of soup laid out on a serving tray.
"My niece is very sorry, aren't you, niece?" He picks Jade up, holding her in front of the waiter she knocked over who is now covered with noodles seeing the damage she caused, quickly nods with her stating then, "I am such a dork."
Jackie, Jade, and Uncle return to their seats. Jackie offers a sheepish wave to the couple sitting opposite them after sitting down whilst Uncle cleans the noodles from his head with a napkin.
"I was just trying to get you to teach me, Jackie." Jade admits to him as he nodded with understanding as Uncle recognized the idol worship from Jade, but decided to state nothing as Jackie soon confused Jade by his wise words then, "The wise seek power within themselves. The foolish seek it within others. Until you harness the power within yourself, I cannot teach you."
"Huh?" Jade asked him perplexingly after trying to wrap that around her head for a few moments to make him sigh and state his words again, but easier for her to understand, "It means you must have the discipline to behave yourself. Now eat your food." As he said that, the waiter arrives with a serving trolley carrying the bowl of soup which has the Rooster Talisman inside.
"Power within got it," Jade stated while eyeing the food, and the waiter placed the bowl of soup in front of Jade, but she felt the urge to go to the bathroom and was quickly excused, and headed to the ladies section.
Once inside and her business done, she paused at washing her hands as she thought she heard a sniffle in one of the stalls and dried her hands as she didn't know or understand why back then, but her mind was currently curious and worried with recalling that figure coming into the room itself, moments earlier.
Once she got to the stall, Jade hesitated but knocked on the door and heard scuffling to know she may have scared whoever was behind the other side and asked them, "Whoever it is, you ok in there?"
Getting a no worded response to make Jade worried more with a gut-wrenching feeling as she saw the stall door was unlocked, she soon stood stiff at seeing what she guessed was a runaway around her age, or even younger, gazing back and looking slightly sick to boot, and how frail yet decent looking the girl was.
The girl curled into a ball on the toilet though and Jade didn't know what to do, but she hesitated and then made the girl stiffen from her looking at her with those interesting eyes that Jade thought she had, and asked with her trying to be gentle in her approach, "You ok?"
Seeing the girl eyeing her warily as Jade saw the messy mouth to realize the girl might have snuck into the place to impress her, and saw she looked stunned by her gently patting her on her left shoulder before making things awkward between them as the girl instantly hugged Jade, and began to cry on her hoodie.
It seems she was there longer than she should be with seeing the girl stiffened as there was a knock on the door, and Jade rolled her eyes as Jackie asked in concern, "Jade, you ok in there? You're food getting cold?"
"I'll be right out! Nearly done." Jade stated loud enough to her Uncle Jackie, as she guessed he left to go back to their table and looked at the girl before tinting like she was, as both their stomachs gurgled at the same time.
"Guess wherever you came from, you're still hungry, right?" Jade asked her to which she saw the girl hesitated but gave a sheepish wordless nod before looking a bit guilty for her next question as she saw the girl flinch and looked away, "Can you talk?"
Seeing the girl shake her head in a wordless 'No' before Jade was horrified at her being the one on seeing a faded dagger scar across the girl's throat, but she kept her composure as Jade placed a smile on her face to confuse the girl, and got up with her off the toilet, grabbed her bag, and paused at seeing the exposed blanket's name.
"Well, Camelia… That's your name, right?" Jade asked her as Camelia gave a surprised nod before seeing her blanket exposed at least her first name with Jade helping her tuck it back in, and made her wordlessly yelp in surprise once again as she was guarded and wary by her words, "Well, why not come to where my family is and you can maybe share food with ya? What do you say, Amy?"
Camelia was about to object wordlessly, blinked a few times, and tilted her head in a way Jade didn't realize she tinted from, as that was the first time someone ever gave the Potter Child a nickname that oddly enough, warmed her heart and even felt her voice-based male friend was oddly accepting of her hopeful first friend, besides him, in the real world.
Camelia though hesitated but nodded a 'Yes' to her as she hides a wordless yelp once again as Jade dragged her over to the table to make both Uncle and Jackie raise an eyebrow over, and Jade introduced her new friend without not seeing the concern on the two adults faces in the attire the girl had, "Uncle, Uncle Jackie, this is my new friend, Camelia… Can she eat with us?"
Seeing the girl's state, Jackie sighed with Uncle being pleased and saw the utter shock on Camelia's face with her reluctantly placing her bag close to her, by his gentle words, "Of course."
Jade was rather surprised with Uncle being suspicious as Camelia sneezed and saw how Jade's soup was back to being acceptable in warmth, as Jackie aided the girl on her bowl yet was surprised once she tasted it, she began devouring it like it was her last meal, like Jade was.
"Don't eat like a baboon. You should chew your food." Jackie told Jade then in a way, he didn't see Camelia hide a gulp and try to not choke on her free food from nice strangers and with her trying to slow down her eating, respectfully.
"Hello? Chew soup?" Jade informed him as Jackie looked exasperated and stated to Uncle, "Help me out here." He sighed with a facepalm as Uncle hid a smirk on his face by informing him by reminding the man, "She's your niece."
Jade soon lifts the bowl to her mouth and drains the last of her soup with one giant gulp, unknowingly swallowing the Rooster Talisman. "Ah! Mmm, it tastes like chicken." She then places the empty bowl aside before turning to a plate of fortune cookies, and saw her friend was surprisingly on her third and stated, "Oooh, dessert!" She breaks open a fortune cookie and proceeds to read the fortune inside. "Danger looms in your future."
"We must be very cautious." Uncle warned them by seeing Camelia stiffen as she finished her bowl and blinked in confusion at him while setting it down Jackie shrugged it off, and stated to him, "Pfft, you listen to a cookie?"
It was in these odd circumstances that the three Enforcers entered the restaurant and approached the table, with Finn stating then in a smirk, "Evenin', Chan."
Uncle then tells his family as he saw the new girl grab her bag, warily, from eyeing the group, "Never mock the cookie."
"Where's the talisman?" Finn demanded, with Jackie looking unsure before Ratso grabs Jackie by his collar and swung two punches at him, both of which missed Jackie, who proceeds to yank Ratso's tie whilst Chow attempts to subdue him from behind, and the young couple flee.
Jackie then performs a backflip over Chow who then pulls a fist back to strike Jackie, only to find his wrist tied up to the end of Ratso's tie.
"Go, Jackie!" Jade shouted in support with Camelia watching with widened eyes as Finn swung a chair at Jackie, who dropped down and performed a leg sweep, knocking Finn to the floor. After rising to his feet, he pulls a handgun from inside his jacket, only for Jackie to kick it out of his hand into a lobster tank before kicking him back to the floor.
Chow then lunges at Jackie with a pair of retractable fighting sticks, but the former quickly manages to kick him aside.
Ratso, on the other hand, angrily rips off his tie before proceeding to swing his fists at Jackie, backing him up against a table laid out with bowls of noodles. Jackie then lifts two bowls in either hand, evading Ratso's strikes before launching both bowls in his face one after the other. After collecting his bearings, Ratso charges at Jackie, only to trip over a broom placed in his path by Jade.
"Ha!" Jade stated smugly with Camelia wondering what was going on, and what a talisman was, as Uncle told Jade firmly then, "Leave the rough stuff to Jackie!" He takes the broom from Jade and flings it back beneath his shoulder, hitting Ratso in the stomach.
Jade only blinked once before starting to boost the old man's ego a bit, "Go, Uncle."
Back with Jackie, he opens in a fighting stance, prompting the three Enforcers to quickly flee the building.
Jackie then told everyone watching what went down as they made things awkward by applauding the family, and making it convincing, "Thank you for dining with us!" He returns to the table and gasps upon noticing the Rooster Talisman has vanished. "The talisman!" He desperately searches inside a teapot and beneath a plate. "It was right there! They took it!"
Camelia saw that her new friend's family was searching for whatever the item was before she managed to nab a cookie with Jade trying to drag her with, "Come on, we can catch 'em!" She rushes off, only to be dragged back to the table along with Camelia by Jackie as he firmly tells her with an apologetic look to Camelia, "Stay with Uncle!" He runs to the exit.
"Come, sit." Uncle states as Camelia saw Jade had an instant idea, as she gasped out, "The restaurant manager! He looks very angry."
"Where?" Uncle starts to worry before he turns around, only to find that Jade and the new girl have vanished after turning back. "Ai-Ya!" It was then he saw the remains of the other child's cookie and took the paper, blinked, and looked thoughtful as he knew these cookies were telling true fortunes from a true future seer at times, as despite being short, would worded things to prove outcomes.
Outside in an alley further out from the restaurant, the three Enforcers are reporting their failure to Valmont via video phone.
"Mr. Valmont, sir. It didn't go quite as planned." Finn began but was interrupted by their boss as he didn't look pleased, "Regale me."
"Well, we stomped Chan-" Finn states before Ratso added, "Stomped him good!" Rolling his eyes, Finn resumed speaking, "But we didn't see any talisman."
"You will be punished." Valmont only stated on his end as he terminated the call, and turned to Shendu as he raspily stated to him, "Hindsight, Valmont. But perhaps the blind can be made to see with the eyes of a dragon." One of the stone slots on Shendu's statue form begins to melt, revealing the Seeking Device which subsequently drops to the floor until it is picked up by a Shadowkhan, who is quickly joined by more of his kind, alongside the one that was tracking the so-called power and whispered into the statue's stone ear.
Shendu looked rather surprised from Valmont being stoic but hiding his curiosity, from a larger flash of eyes the statue had as the male statue soon told it to resume its quest, and told the others to aid the finding of the talisman, and the Shadowkaun then dismissed themselves.
With Jackie, he races down the street, stopping upon noticing the three Enforcers in the alley. The Enforcers gasp before proceeding to flee in the opposite direction as Jackie gives chase.
Jade alongside Camelia emerges from the shadows, peeking around a corner behind Jackie, and dismissively states to herself, "Stay with Uncle? T'ch, didn't say which uncle..." She saw the hesitation on her new friend's face and gave her a smile of 'Trust me' and with her, dashed off after Jackie.
Lying in wait, the Shadowkhan observes Jackie from an alley as he unknowingly races past them, the Seeking Device indicating that he does not possess the talisman. When they observe Jade follow suit immediately after, one of the four dragon heads atop the device begins to glow, pointing to her, prompting them to give chase, and also perplexed by the dark-blue followed by the other child to which they would report to their master, from one eye being red, and the other that to a dark eerie blue color.
With Jackie, he continues to gain on the Enforcers, who have now reached their limo.
"Who has the keys!?" Finn states in a panicked voice while hearing Ratso agree with noticing something, "He's coming!" Finn glimpses back at Jackie through the side mirror until finally locating the keys, starting the ignition before dashing off in the nick of time.
Jackie watches the limo speed away before stopping to catch his breath whilst Jade sneaks steadily behind him, with the Shadowkhan, in turn, sneaking steadily behind her and her friend Camelia.
"Hmm?" Jackie asks as she turns around after sensing he's being followed, upon which Jade, with her helping Camilla hide better, and the Shadowkhan duck out of view before he can see them. "Hmm." He turns back and takes off after the limo.
Jade creeps back into view alongside Camelia as she glanced back and was the only one to see the Shadowkaun following them. She tries to get her friend's attention before proceeding to follow her and Jackie with a silent sigh whilst the Shadowkhan lurk silently behind them until Jade too turns around after sensing she's being followed, "Huh?" She shrugs before turning back and the duo continues after Jackie whilst the Shadowkhan follows suit.
Jade dashes off after Jackie, only to be suddenly dragged around a street corner by him, causing her to scream, and blinking at her getting the other girl supposedly younger than Jade, as his niece responded, "What's the big- Oh, uh... Hi!" Jade though looked like she was caught with her hands in the cookie jar with also seeing Camelia sheepishly rubbing her head nervously at him.
"You two followed me! What do you hear when I talk? Tell me, does it sound like blah-blah, blah-blah, blah-blah-blah-blah-blah?" Jackie began with Camelia stiffening, tugging Jade's clothing, and wordlessly pointing to make her freeze as she gasps, clinging to Jackie's arm, and trying to get his attention next, "Jackie!" Jackie, however, dismissed this and continued to berate his niece at least, "This is not funny, this is dangerous-" Jade having enough of not getting her attention, turns his head to face several Shadowkhan lurking towards them. "See, dangerous."
"Come on!" He scoops both Jade and Camelia up and ponders for only a second how light the other child was, tucking them under his arm like a football before fleeing the scene, prompting the Shadowkhan to give chase.
"Aren't you gonna whomp 'em?" Jade asked loudly after seeing those weird Ninjas pursuing them as Jackie responded hastily yet was heard by the two people at ease, "Ancient proverb: Do not fight when you can run!"
Jackie, Jade, and Camelia soon bolt down the street with the Shadowkhan close behind. As they pass, a large man emerges into view.
The man is portrayed as a large Japanese man, weighing approximately 480 pounds and standing taller than even Ratso. His main outfit consists of a white t-shirt with black or gray overalls and brown sandals. He has black hair in a chonmage hairstyle, which is the traditional hairstyle of samurais and sumo wrestlers.
Jackie stops after reaching a street corner, setting Jade and her involved friend down before instructing them to run in the opposite direction. "You both go that way!"
"But-" Jade was about to argue with Camelia being wary as she still felt like they were being watched as Jackie urged the duo, "Go! You'll be safer away from me!"
"Alright… We need to go, Amy," Jade tells her friend while ignoring the heart-thump she had from touching her hand and grabbing it, and they both reluctantly run down the street whilst Jackie takes off in the opposite direction.
Jackie dashes off with the Shadowkhan on his tail until they turn off down the street corner after Jade. "Huh?" He glances around the corner at the Shadowkhan chasing Jade and the other child before proceeding to take off after them.
Both Jade and Camelia race down the street, with Jade glancing behind her shoulder to face several Shadowkhan in close pursuit, being guided by the Seeking Device. "Why are they chasing me!? Us?!" Jade declared loudly as she and her friend dashed past a dumpster in an alley, skidding to a stop after noticing a discarded larger skateboard and two helmets sticking out from the trash.
"Please have four wheels…" she muttered seeing Camelia pull the items out, and Jade inspecting the larger skateboard before both of them strapped on the helmets and took off, effectively putting some distance between themselves and the encroaching Shadowkhan.
Jade glances behind her shoulder as Camelia holds onto her to face the Shadowkhan, who is no longer breathing down her neck. "Yes!" She turns back to the road ahead from a wary tug and gestures ahead, only to find that she's leading them to hit a steep slope. "No-ooo-oooo!"
The Shadowkhan stops to a halt before leaping onto the roof of a speeding truck just as Jackie emerges into view.
"Jade!" Jackie explains as commandeers a shopping cart from a grocer outside his store. "Sorry, I'll bring it right back." He subsequently glides down a steep slope in tow of the truck, which in turn is tailing Jade.
Jade flips into the air on the skateboard, effectively jumping two vehicles ahead of her with Camelia having her eyes shut as she just kept holding onto her.
Jackie continues to close in on the truck until an oncoming vehicle flings him from the shopping cart, forcing him to leap from car to car until eventually making a jump for the truck, whereupon he is confronted by the Shadowkhan on top with the truck's driver left none the wiser.
Whilst fighting the Shadowkhan atop the truck, Jackie unknowingly knocks the Seeking Device from its holder's grasp, causing it to fall over the side of the truck, landing in the street only to be immediately picked up by Tohru.
Jade continues to roll ahead of the truck, being surprised for only a moment by how strong and gentle of a grip Camelia had, and eventually reaches the bottom of a slope bound for the Oakland Bay Bridge which is undergoing active maintenance.
After passing onto the bridge, she glances behind her shoulder to face Jackie confronting the Shadowkhan atop the truck. "Jackie, you rule!" She turns back to the road ahead, only to find that she's about to crash into a crew of workers. "Ahhhh!" She then swerves to avoid the workers, inadvertently skidding along with a set of leaning pipes that throw her over the side of the bridge. "Noooo!" She dangles in mid-air as Camelia, still held onto her skateboard, so their former ride plunge into the water below.
"Huh?" She kicks her feet bemusedly before scurrying her way back, clinging to the side of the bridge, and with Camelia's stunning sight and help, helped her lower Jade to the ground and asked her friend in utter confusion, "How'd I do that?"
The driver of the truck eventually glances into the side mirror only to catch sight of Jackie and the Shadowkhan fighting on top of the cargo compartment behind the cabin, prompting him to slam hard on the brakes in shock which causes the truck to swerve out of control until it crashes into the side of the bridge, flinging both Jackie and the Shadowkhan overboard.
Jade saw this alongside Camelia as she shouted out in worry, "Jackie!" They both rush over to the side of the bridge, gazing down at Jackie who is hanging from the framework, with the Shadowkhan, in turn, dangling beneath him one after the other like a rope. At the very end, the last Shadowkhan begins to climb the others like a ladder.
"No cutting in line!" After reaching Jackie towards the top, the Shadowkhan proceeds to kick his dangling kinsmen off, who subsequently glide down to the shore.
Tohru, at his spot, however, follows the Seeking Device to the top of a slope, pointing him towards the Oakland Bay Bridge.
With Jade, she and Camelia gaze down at Jackie before proceeding to scan the working site, whereupon she spots a rope of wire. "Jackie! Grab on!" She tosses the end of the rope down to Jackie, but before he can reach it, the Shadowkhan begins to climb up over his shoulders onto the framework beneath the bridge.
"Help." Jade muttered in growing fear with her friend gazing down wordlessly and widened her eyes from seeing this as Jackie yelled out to the ninja men, "Why do you want the girl!?" As the Shadowkhan reaches for the rope, Jackie begins to lose his grip and drops from the ledge before catching onto the Shadowkhan's leg, using it to swing himself up onto the framework ahead of the Shadowkhan. "Up, up, and away!"
After catching his balance, he proceeds to climb up the rope as the Shadowkhan begins to follow suit.
Jade gazes down at the Shadowkhan as Jackie pulls himself to safety. "Oh, ninja man…" She noticed Camelia pointing, nodding, pushing the reel to the rope over the side of the bridge whilst the Shadowkhan is still using it to climb up, effectively causing him to plunge into the water below.
Once Jackie was on his feet, he said to himself then, "I don't understand why they were after-" "Jackie, the coolest thing ever happened! I went and ran off the bridge but I didn't fall. I stopped in mid-air and then I ran back just like in cartoons!" She gasps dumbfoundedly. "I can fly!"
Jackie though made Camelia frown as she oddly enjoyed the ride Jade gave her from fleeing those shadowy men, and told her then and there in a way he was not happy, "Jade, enough fooling around."
"Fooling around!? I just saved your butt!" Jade declared with Camelia admitting that she did so but with Jackie, he told her then, "Language, Jade. The Dark Hand is after you and I want to know why-" Tohru suddenly emerges behind Jackie before rendering him unconscious with a nerve pinch to the shoulder.
Jade gasps alongside Camelia as Tohru holds the Seeking Device up to Jade, the glowing dragon head indicating that she possesses the Rooster Talisman, and kept it to himself for later when the device to perplex the man, glowed an eerie blue at the other child but grunted out to Jade, mainly, "The talisman." He subsequently holds out an open hand.
"I don't have it! You guys have it! Dontcha?" Jade warily tells him before Tohru scoops her up from the ground, dangling her upside down along with the other child, and leaves without seeing in the shadows, the same Shadowkhan that was told to follow the power, followed in hidden pursuit.
Later at the Helm's Fish Cannery, Tohru is reporting to Valmont via video phone. "The tracker points to the girl, but she does not have the talisman. And it also glows an unnatural blue when it points to the other child I nabbed."
Valmont nodded at his end and stated, "Well, it must be hidden on her somewhere, Tohru. I'm sure she didn't eat it." He freezes dumbfoundedly as in the background, Shendu states casually in a wise tone, "Man is much wiser when he looks within."
"I understand." Tohru informed him as Valmont stated then in order, "And while you're at it, eliminate Jackie Chan, and see what is so special about that other child."
In another room, both Jade and a semi-conscious Jackie are revealed to have been taken captive, and Camelia was as well yet she was chained against a wall with thicker rope as Jade shouted, "Hello!? Let me outta here! I mean it! Just wait'll the "Jackinator" comes to. You guys are gonna get so creamed!"
Jackie begins to regain consciousness, awakening to find himself handcuffed to a metal pipe conduit and Jade strapped to a restraining table, and Camelia trying to reach for her bag left on the spare table beside her in desperation, "Jade? Camelia?"
Jade paused and glanced in his direction in utter surprise like her friend did as she stopped trying to get her bag, "'Jackinator'?"
Tohru then approaches Jade after emerging from an elevator, holding the Seeking Device above her before navigating it down to her stomach, prompting all four dragon heads to glow simultaneously. "Aha!"
Camelia was scared as she knew what was going to happen as Jade saw the large man head over to the corner of the room, "'Aha' what? What's 'Aha'?" Tohru lifts a huge scimitar into view. "What are you going to do with that!?" Jade's tone was panicked though.
Jackie desperately struggles against his handcuffs to no avail, and sees the other child frozen stiff in fear as Jade realizes the situation, stating to herself then with wide eyes, "Oh, boy…" She gasps before Tohru suddenly turns around, heading to the other side of the room until arriving at a wheel grinder, using it to sharpen the scimitar.
"The rooster thing is in my stomach! But, when did I…" Jade began before Jackie and Jade started together, as Camelia tried to get free by chewing the rope but spat out the lining and slumped in place, "The restaurant!"
"How could you not notice you swallowed a golf ball? I told you to chew your food!" Jackie then tells her in a way, that he was surprised as Jade shrugged or tried to at her spot and admitted to making him sigh after, "It was soup!"
Tohru briefly stops to examine the sharpness of the blade.
"Never mind. We have to get you both out of here before he gets the talisman out of you, Jade." Jackie then tells his niece, alongside involving Camelia as he didn't even know why they wanted the other child as well.
"The magic Uncle was talking about! I'll fly out!" She struggles hard against the heavy straps restraining her to the table, growling whilst gritting her teeth with her eyes closed and her stomach pushed out to no avail.
"Jade, even if you could fly, and I'm not saying you can, you are tied down to a big heavy table which is bolted to the floor!" He sighs before a floating can of fish passes his field of view. "Huh? Jade?"
Jade opens her eyes to the sight of several items levitating in the room, and Camelia manages to nab her bag and gives her friend a wary look from floating as well, "Woah."
Jackie gasps upon turning to face the several levitating items behind him. "You're tela, uh... Tela, tela- You can move things with your mind!"
"No, with my stomach!" She gasps as Tohru suddenly returns with the scimitar, and tells her then firmly, "Hold still."
Jade gazes up at Tohru before noticing a heavy crate hanging from a chain directly above him. "Focus! Focus! Focus! Focus! Focus!" She once again pushes her stomach out whilst gritting her teeth with her eyes closed, growling, to Tohru's bewilderment. "Why do you growl?"
Jade manages to release the crate from the hook on the ceiling, effectively causing it to drop on Tohru, as the man gazes up as the crate comes crashing down. "Huh?" He is suddenly struck by the crate, knocking him unconscious as a heap of fish spews out on top of him.
"Guess I have that 'Power within' you were talking about." Jade admits to her Uncle Jackie with seeing Camelia hugging her bag and confused her from her glancing point, looking to be thinking deeply with hazed eyes for a moment as Jackie tells her for an amusing moment and gives her an idea, "Not what I meant. Now cut yourself free!"
"Uh, right!" Jade agreed as she concentrated once more, slowly lifting the scimitar from Tohru's hand before using it to cut through the straps, freeing her from the table, and saw the weapon easily sliced the ropes for her friend to shakily get up with Jade rushing over to free Jackie when the three Enforcers suddenly emerge from the elevator.
"Yo, Big-T, what's all the racket down-" He notices Jackie and Jade were free alongside the other kid, "Chan."
"Jade, run, fly, something!" He scoops Jade up by her feet, launching her into the air, Camelia was frozen in place as Jade exclaimed a 'Woah' as Finn states, "Huh? Get the girl! Payback time, Jackson."
"Oh, boy… Hey Amy! Look out!" Jade states as she somehow managed to land on top of her friend and to make them tint without seeing their eyes flashing a golden color for a moment, kissed her on directly the lips and hastily got up, with her finishing freeing her friend's wrist of the loose ropes before they saw Finn swinging several punches at Jackie, who manages to dodge each of them whilst simultaneously searching his pockets for the keys to the handcuffs, eventually knocking Finn down upon retrieving them before proceeding to set himself free.
Jade concentrates as she easily floats in mid-air above Ratso and Chow, who have formed a human pyramid beneath her and with the latter on top whilst she teasingly hovers just out of his reach. "Ner ner!"
"Get over here, you! Get over here, you…" Chow shouts with Camelia going to hide as she watches things, subconsciously touches her lips in confusion with them still tingling and ignores the amused chuckle her voice friend had.
Finn drags himself back to his feet, stumbling upon a dangling hook attached to a chain before hurling it at Jackie. Just as he manages to unshackle himself, Jackie is struck by the hook and flung across the room into a wall, only to bounce himself back towards Finn in a flying kick, causing him to tumble into Chow and Ratso's human pyramid.
Ratso proceeds to chase after Jackie, charging him against a corner until Jackie flips against the wall at the last second, landing behind Ratso whilst he slams straight into the wall.
Finn trips Jackie over with a loose section of pipe, knocking him into some barrels of fish. "Heh."
Jackie gazes up at the three Enforcers from the floor, Finn armed with the loose section of pipe, Chow with a monkey wrench, and Ratso with a barrel. He proceeds to scan his surroundings for a suitable weapon to use, finding only fish. He subsequently wields a fish in either hand, holding them each by the tail before skillfully spinning them like a pair of nunchaku.
Finn snickers before lunging at Jackie, flanked on either side by Ratso and Chow.
Jackie engaged Finn and Chow with the pair of fish, knocking them both down with a single strike each before turning his attention to Ratso.
Ratso gazes at Jackie in hesitation, dropping his weapon before attempting to flee, only to turn face-first into a metal beam, knocking him unconscious.
Tohru, aware now, roars from beneath the mountain of fish before bursting out from the top. "I hate fish!"
"Why fight when you can run?" Jade taunts the men and Jackie, being surprised for a moment, states to her, "You're learning!"
Jade hovers beside Jackie, leading him up a set of stairs with Camelia taking this as her que, following them as well, "This way!"
Jackie follows Jade into a room on the next floor before gesturing to her to be quiet without having to tell Camelia this, "Shh…" Tohru suddenly emerges from an elevator behind Jackie and Jade.
"Oh?" Jackie and Jade both turn to face Tohru as he reaches to grab a heavy crate before proceeding to swing it at Jackie, only just missing him.
Jackie leaps back into a fighting stance, facing Tohru in a standoff before darting his eyes towards the exit, prompting Tohru to hurl the crate at the door, effectively blocking their escape.
"And when you can't run?" Jade warily asked with Camelia hugging her as Jackie told her then, "Don't watch." He advances toward Tohru with Jade looking annoyed as she stated, "T'ch, yah like I'm not going to watch…" Tohru rushes to grab Jackie, who subsequently manages to leap over him. "Huh?" He scans the room for Jackie, only to find him clung to his back before proceeding to toss him across the room.
"Noooo! I can take him! Hyah!" Jade states as she launches herself up at Tohru, kicking him from behind in mid-air which has no effect whatsoever, and Tohru inhales deeply before blowing a heavy gust of wind at Jade, sending her spiraling away. "Woah!" She ran right into Camelia again to which she caught Jade, and both grunted as they looked where Jackie was.
Tohru gazes down at Jackie from across the room before proceeding to charge at him, whereupon Jackie tips over a barrel of fish ahead of his path, causing him to slip onto his chest and slide headfirst into Jackie.
Jade then proceeds to scan the room until a marlin fish on the wall catches her attention, using her telekinetic power to launch it at Tohru, and Camelia seeing this held onto her for better support. "Hyah!"
Tohru turns towards the fish, catching it between his hands just inches from his face before proceeding to hurl it at Jackie, who subsequently leaps onto a crate as the fish's sword-like snout barely misses his crotch.
"Stop helping! Stop helping!" Jackie exclaimed as Jade was sheepish and Camelia only blinked by sheepishly rubbing her head, "Heh, sorry…" Tohru charges at Jackie, knocking him off the crate into a stack of shelves.
"Jackie!" Jade exclaimed with Camelia equally agreeing as Tohru grabs Jackie from behind, holding him in a headlock.
Jade once again proceeds to scan the room. "Gotta hit Tohru with the biggest thing I can find…" She gasps with Camelia pointing at the large man with a thankful look to her, "Himself! Whoa!" She pushes her stomach out, using her telekinetic power to lift Tohru to the ceiling. Tohru, upon reaching the ceiling, head knocks into a lampshade. "Hmm?" He gazes down in shock whilst releasing his grip on Jackie.
Jackie gazes up at Tohru after dropping safely to the ground. "Huh?" Jade strains with all her might to keep Tohru aloft, "He's big... Can't hold much longer!"
Tohru groans nauseously with Jackie seeing things quickly stating to himself, "Oh, no…" Jade releases her hold over Tohru, letting him drop heavily to the ground as he proceeds to crash through the floor, managing to drag Jackie down with him before continuing to fall through three more floors until finally plunging into the water below.
Jade hovers above the hole in the floor with Camelia looking down at seeing it was safe and with her also placing her bag around her shoulders, inspecting the subsequent holes in the floors beneath until suddenly spotting Jackie, pulling himself to safety from the edge of the second hole, prompting her to dive down to him.
Jackie rubs his arm in pain and gives mainly Jade a look as she looks sheepishly at him with another head rub, "Heh, sorry…" once she helped him out of the hole, she managed to catch Camelia with Jackie touching the girl's forehead and sighed, and Jade soon beamed at him for.
Later in Section 13, Jackie and Captain Black are walking along a corridor, and trying to explain to him, "I'm telling you, Uncle was right, the talismans do possess magic powers."
To mention the man is bald in his forties and wears a dark long coat over a red turtleneck with charcoal pants.
"Of course they do, Jackie. Now, why don't you get some sleep?" He leads Jackie into a room upon opening a door, revealing an apartment containing Jackie's belongings.
"All my stuff! How'd it get here?" Jackie asked his friend as Captain Black informed him with Jackie's understanding, "Until we can take down the Dark Hand, it's safer for you here inside Section 13. I hope it feels like home."
"But what about Uncle?" Jackie asked, meanwhile, at Uncle's Rare Finds, which to mention the shop is located in Chinatown, San Francisco, and has likely been around for more than forty years. The shop itself is located on the main floor, and there is an upper level that is used for extra storage. There is also a library and a spare room in the back where Uncle practices chi spells, not known to Jade when she arrived. This is also where he keeps his ingredients for the spells, as well as other valuable objects.
Anyways, Uncle is pacing in front of the counter to his shop with a bag of orange dust in his hand, proceeding to spread it across the store, "Good magic is stronger than bad magic."
Back at Section 13, Captain Black sighed as he told Jackie then, "He refused to move. Something about messing up his feng shui or something."
Jackie nodded in understanding, "Uncle is very stubborn." A nauseous-looking Jade is escorted into the room by a pair of agents as one of them then states to Captain Augustus Black, "Stomach successfully pumped."
"Uhhh, cock-a-doodle-doo." Jade weakly states trying to be funny, and doesn't see the hidden smile on Jackie's face before he whispers to Captain Black, "What about her?" Captain Black wordlessly points to a pile of Jade's belongings.
Jade gasps with her feelings of being woozy, and forgotten, at the hinting news as Captain Black stated to Jackie, "I trust you'll keep your niece in check?"
Before Jackie could reply, Jade asked excitedly to him as both he and Captain Black looked at her, "Jackie, does this mean I'm a secret agent!?" Jackie and Captain Black quickly stated at the same time to disappoint her, in moments, "No!"
"Aww…" Jade states before crossing her arms to know she was not happy about that, before blinking like the rest of the agents and her uncle as an explosion occurred within the facility.
"What the?" Captain Black questions himself and before Jackie could tell Jade to stay put, saw immediate concern fill her features as a random agent came to them, panting, and wheezed some air into their lungs seeing the suit looked scorched slightly, and couldn't stop Jade as she took off with unexpected energy to where she guessed it occurred, "Sir. That other little girl may have caused parts of the lab to be scorched by the energy she let out from the doctors trying to settle her down, from her mouth."
Jackie turned to his friend as Captain Black narrowed his eyes, held the bridge of his nose, and asked with a gesture to the now sheepishly looking agent, "Please tell me you guys didn't force the child to get scared?"
Seeing his look, he sighed as Jackie went with him and soon found Jade, to tell Jackie how much of a good friend she was, was calming Camelia down who was wordlessly crying in fear and saw minor smoke showing from her mouth to know the agent was telling the truth.
Seeing her bare arms and legs, however, confirmed his suspicions like Augustus was from healed dagger wounds the child was either tortured or worse, abused.
"Sir! Thank goodness!" Another random agent came to him as he gestured to the now sleeping child within Jade's arms as the sedative dart Jade plucked from her arm after seeing it, kicked in, "We tried settling her down the normal way but once she saw a needle to give her her booster shots, and to extract her blood, she freaked out and had no choice but to try and force her to sleep."
"You went over protocol, Agent." Captain Black firmly stated as Jackie checked the girl's pulse to sigh in relief as she was fine, and to surprise him once again, Jade helped him lift Camelia to the spare examination table with a pillow and a decently sized blanket to place on top of her, "Should I force you to go through the drills again?"
The agent sweated at that before making Augustus Black tense up in utter shock as he gazed at the dozing child, with the doctors finally checking her over for things with Jade being led back to their new room by Jackie and an agent, from this agents words, "We did manage to go into her bag and saw a blanket with the name: Camelia Lilith Potter, sir… Sir, you alright?" The agent then asked to only see their boss kept gazing right at the child.
Captain Black shook his head and made the agents and doctors blink, by his firm words of a direct order then, "I want a full diagnostic run while she's passed out, and to make sure she gets a spare bed within the Chan Room. I want to know what she's been through. If she needs booster shots, do so."
The agents nodded as he left them with Captain Black thinking and many emotions running through his head, as yes, he never believed in magic yet knew it existed as well, especially his cousin: Sirius Black, who was in Azkaban Prison for something he was only told by the Aurors of something bad occurring and thought to himself with a sigh, Damn societies and more. I will make changes if that kid was abused or worse.
Within the Dark Hand building, Valmont sat in a seat after berating the men for their failure to get the Rooster Talisman, he was sipping red wine in a chair with tense silence between him, and Shendu.
It was then that the single Shadowkhan arose and bowed before Shendu, and whispered something into his ear once again to intrigue the statue before he sent it back to its task.
"It seems that the power comes from a child who exhibits particular energy." Shendu tells Valmont who raised an eyebrow at him as he gently swirled his drink before gently sipping it, "Power you say? What kind?"
"None of your business, Valmont… Though I highly suggest that you find the next location of the talisman, or our deal will be for not." Shendu scolded the man by reminding him, and Valmont nodded with him sipping his wine once again as he got up, and mock-bowed the statue wordlessly as he left to head to his living chambers.
Shendu is mixed at this moment, but he knows he cannot do anything unless he manages to get all his talismans, or with the use of a single one, to discover this power for himself.
So he would reluctantly be patient and wait for the time being, and keep the knowledge of his single Shadowkhan spy to himself.
