Thanks again guys. I'm really loving the positive reception this is getting. ^_^
Well, I've FINALLY written Part 4, but I dunno if I'm happy with the way it turned out. It's very exciting and it got me excited when I thought of it but, gee.
Whatever. If Mara spots something she'll definitaly tell me.
Here you go. Enjoy.
===============================
Part 4 - The Meeting and the Pairing"Master Hong?"
"Oh ho," the old fighting master jollyingly laughed, "Hello there, friend of the Chosen One."
"Greetings Master Hong," Jimmy and Cindy bowed before him.
Hong then noticed Jimmy and Cindy together.
"Oh, and who is your girlfriend here?"
The two gawked at his question.
"He/She's not my Girl/Boyfriend!" they both declared simultaneously.
"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!," the old master laughed as he then walked over to the two, "Love does strange things to people, indeed. But true love isn't measured by how two humans look at each other, but the direction they are heading, what future will they move forward to, together," as he put his hands together in a gesture symbolizing a united couple.
Jimmy and Cindy stared at each other, then turned away disgusted.
Cindy then noticed that her original master was missing.
"Wait! Where's Master Toriyama?" Cindy asked.
"Master Toriyama is out sick, so I called to fill in. He always gets seasick, poor apprentice of mine."
Cindy gasped.
"Master Toriyama was your student?!" Her face beamed.
"Oh yes. Very troublesome he was: Always crying at night to go home to his mommy. The poor sap. But he learned discipline and restraint and soon enough he left my school with his head high, or in his case, a bad case of indigestion."
"So, what brings you here to Summer Mountain, Jimmy-san? Have you finally admitted that a strong body and mind is more virtueious than gadgetry and technology? Ha, ha, ha, ha!"
Bothered but retaining his anger, Jimmy politely asked but was then interrupted by Cindy.
"Well, Master, Jimmy here wishes to learn the expertise of martial arts."
To Jimmy's surprise, she seemed unusually polite around Hong, considering her constantly being rude to him on an almost regular basis.
Then the old man let loose a laughter.
"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!! Him? Fight? Without tripping on his small legs? Impossible!" He almost cracked in laughter.
"Actually Master, there's something we've come here for and-"
"Speaking of which, where is your friend the Chosen One? Oh how the monks in Shangi-Lama loved to see him put his leg behind his head!"
"Uh.. Actually, there's a story to that... "
-2 minutes later-
"The Chosen One and his friends has been captured by Yoo Yee?!"
"That's why we came here, Master Hong," said Cindy, "Jimmy is the only person left to fight Yoo Yee and save out friends. Which, by the way, he hasn't got ANY of his self-made inventions left."
"Although," Jimmy replied surpassingly, "Cindy has ENOUGH fighting prowess that she could take on Yoo Yee herself and-"
"Quiet!!!," Hong yelled. Jimmy and Cindy were forced instantly into standing position.
"For too long I have seen too many kids immerse themselves with useless technology and not enough learning mental and physical discipline! And YOU," Hong pointed towards Jimmy, "Of all people, relying heavily on science and gadgets, can you really hope of defeat such a foe as Yoo Yee with such distractions?"
Jimmy's blood boiled.
How DARE he mocks my work and love for science!! ARGH!! If only I knew how to fight then I'd... I'd...Hong noticed Jimmy's temper.
"Ah, so you DO have a temper, then. If you think you're strong enough, come at me!"
Hong stood up tall. In a fit of anger, Jimmy carelessly came charging at Hong, trying to land a punch on him, but Hong nimbly dodged it and whacked Jimmy with his cane in his stomach, face and head effortlessly, knocking him to the ground.
"HA! You think you can beat me with such poor skills? You.." Suddenly to Hong's great surprise, Jimmy got right back up and charged at him again. But just as Hong was confidently on guard, out of nowhere... "
"HEEEE YAAAAAA!"
In literally lightning speed, Cindy came crashing into Jimmy with a kick to his gut., shooting Jimmy to the ground.
At that instant, like a freeze frame in his mind, Hong looked on in awe towards Cindy.
"Wait," Hong mumbled to himself, "These two, could they be...
the prophecy?"
"Vortex? Ugh.. What.. are.. you doing?!"
"Picking on someone my own size!"
"Grrr!"
Jimmy got up and charged at Cindy.
"I'm gonna enjoy this!"
Just as the two made contact...
"ENOUGH!!," the master yelled, stopping the two in their tracks.
"I have another proposition. It seems obvious to me that Ms. Vortex is of a much more advanced fighting level than yours, Jimmy-san. So, inspired by that brilliant display of martial arts, I WON'T teach you fighting."
The two became shocked.
"BUT, in order for you to save the Chosen One and your friends from Yoo Yee's clutches, I elect that you two.."
This became rather predicable. Jimmy and Cindy crossed their fingers and closed their eyes.
"Please, don't let me be with Cindy, please, don't let me be with Cindy..."
"Please, don't let me be with Nerdtron, please don't let me be with Nerdtron.."
"Work together!"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
Their cry echoed infinitly around the neighboring mountains...
==============================================
Two ninja henchmen with the captured Sheen, Carl and Libby walk down a dimly lit hall way...
"Man, why do we ALWAYS walk down a dimly lit hall way?" Sheen complained.
"Maybe it's because you're yelling too loud!," scorned Libby
"I wonder what's gonna happen to us? I'm scared...," Carl shivered.
"Come on, Carl! Look on the bright side, maybe we're being taken to a Wrestle-palooza match and these ninja guys are professional wrestlers!"
They reach a steel door which opened sideways. Then out comes a familiar yet annoying laughter.
"Or maybe we're gonna be bored to death," Libby rolled her eyes.
"I wish Jimmy and Cindy were here," worried Carl, "Where are they?"
