Chapter 18:
Inexperience can be painful
As Shifu and Michelangelo were on their way back, and as the other three brothers were at the palace or training area the Furious Five were on an intercept course with their opponent Tai Lung. ‘Must stop him, can’t let him be the hero.’ Tigress thought to herself as she and the others ran through the tree limbs, but she went back to the last part she told him:
“Just be careful. You’re anger could take you down. Make you act just like him.” She shook the comment away with one of her own thoughts.
‘I will never be like him.’ Unknown to them Tai Lung had already made it to a series of rope bridges that expanded over a nearly bottomless gorge. Eventually the Five made it to one of the ends of the path, and saw that the white tiger of legend was standing on the other side.
‘Who are these underlings?’ He wondered with minimal effort before charging toward them by running on all fours. The Five saw this, and since they didn’t have a plan they just winged it.
“Cut it!” The experienced fighter said and with that they each cut one tether, but at that time Tai Lung leapt into the air. ‘Wasn’t fast enough.’ She thought before coming up with a follow up plan. Kicking him in the chin, and when the others saw this they grabbed the falling lines and pulled.
‘Decent move.’ The tiger thought as he landed back on the bridge with his eyes still fixed on his opponent who landed in a battle ready stance. “Where is the Dragon Warrior?” He questioned as he leaned against the unstable bridge not bothered by the fellow cat in the least.
“How do you know that you’re not looking at her?” Tigress questioned back - temporarily relieving the four of that title. Her ploy did not work on the man before her.
“You think I’m a fool?” He questioned to her and before any of the five could say anything he continued with, “I know you’re not the Dragon Warrior. None of you!” This got the others worried because they wanted to protect their friends by borrowing their title, but since he knew otherwise they knew they were screwed. “I heard how he fell from the sky in a ball of fire. That he‘s a warrior unlike anything the world has ever seen.” The tiger carried on, still in a calm voice as he walked closer to his fellow feline.
“Michelangelo?” Viper and Monkey questioned after hearing him.
“Naw, got to be Leonardo.” Mantis said as he held his line.
“And what’s wrong with Donatello?” Crane questioned since he felt a sort of kinship to the purple turtle.
“Raphael…” Tigress found herself saying the angered turtle’s name. The white tiger heard all the names and was impressed by all.
“It does not matter what his name is. All I need to know is that I have found a worthy opponent. Our battle will be legendary!” He said and that was when the female before him struck. The two traded blows with one another and the four had to hold the bridge.
‘Gotta block.’ The tiger thought as she lied on the bridge and watched as he flew down at her. Putting up a shield she moved the bridge to block him, but he smashed through it. The two traded blows again until he grabbed her right ankle pulled her and was about to fling her straight down.
‘She’s a scraper. I’ll giver that.’ The tiger thought as he let out a painful howl as he claws anchored down to his outstretched arm. The two brawled while hanging onto the bridge, but the others could see that their friend had become his punching bag.
“We’ve got this. Help her.” The simian said to the speedy serpent and the crafty crane. As they came to her aid their opponent had forced her through the wooden planks and then kicked her causing the ropes holding the hand rails and the boards behind her to break.
‘I’ve got you know.’ He thought and quickly spun the loose ropes around to where they were choking the spunky woman. The snake poked him in the eye causing him to let go of his victim, but she was saved by the flyer.
‘This trick never fails.’ Viper thought before binding one of his arms and started punching his face. The tiger stumbled but stopped himself from falling due to his knee joints. “Monkey!” She shouted out when he grabbed her by the throat.
“Go!” The insect said to the man in question before adding, “What was I thinking?!” He realized that he had bitten off more than he could chew since his bug body was not strong enough to hold them.
‘That was for messing with my friend.’ The ape-man thought as he rushed over and socked the white tiger in the face.
‘These guys need to end this quick. I’m losing ground.’ The bug thought as he found himself losing ground. Having enough of this interference Tai used the two line before him to reach them.
“Mantis!” Tigress shouted to the insect as she still held the bird’s ankles.
“On it.” He shouted up at her and made a wave move by using the bridge. His friends timed it right and jumped, but the former student was slammed and barely recovered by landing on one of the lines.
“Now!” She ordered to them while landing on one of the ropes and raced over to her fellow feline. The team went with a combo attack: Monkey opened with another kick to the face, Viper launched herself with her friend’s outstretched arm and gave him a tail whip, Crane snapped a line and used it to tie him up, Tigress focused all her might into her paws and slammed him straight down before cutting the other line.
‘Guess that’s my cue.’ The pincer pall thought as he saw the whole event and gave the ropes one final pull causing all of his friends to land on their side of the chasm. Once they landed all of them watched as Tai Lung’s side slammed into the opposite stone pillar.
‘Looks like that hunk of turtle gets to live a little longer.’ Viper thought before adding, ‘Why did I call Michelangelo that?’ Her thoughts were halted as a hole when she and the other four watched as the fallen bridge began to move.
‘What’s this?’ Tigress wondered as she and the others watched as it turned all the way around the stone spire, and the tip of the spun around line flung up. They did not completely understand what happened until all heard an explosion of sorts behind them.
“Shifu taught you well.” The enemy said to them in an appreciative tone before striking with a strange finger move. The first casualty was Monkey. ‘That was for punching me in the face.’ He thought before looking over to the others. “But he didn’t teach you everything.” In under a minute three out of four others were taken down.
