(eerie music)
- Ha!
Oof.
Come on Master Chin.
Can't we call it a night?
We've been at this for hours now.
It's not like I don't get enough
practice fighting these days.
- Perhaps there would be less need
for both practice and fighting
if you were more efficient in your endeavors.
- What's that supposed to mean?
Uh, honorable master.
(Xuan yawning)
It means try winning sometime.
Whoa!
(grunts) You need to work on your moves.
- Really?
Well how about this move!
- Haa!
(Ang gasps)
(Master Chin exclaims)
- Ooo. (Ang screams)
(Xuan yawns) I guess we're gonna be here all night.
- Ow, I'd like to see you do better.
- I was thinking the same thing
about you.
(Ling laughs)
- Give it up, Master Chin.
Ang can practice until he's as old as you,
but my dear brother will always end up flat on his butt.
As you can see, without the dragonband,
he's totally useless.
- I don't need any help to kick your...
(grunting)
(exclaiming)
(discs pops)
(discs bang)
- The soul of a dragon, but the mind of a reckless child.
- [Master Chin] Twins, both destined for greatness.
But only one can wear the golden powerband of the dragon.
Only one may use its power to battle
the forces of darkest evil.
The other must decide which path she will take.
(adventurous tune)
Only one, the chosen one, can be the new Golden Dragon.
(gong reverberates)
- Like taking candy from a baby.
The band of the golden dragon will be--
- [Xuan] Incoming!
(Zodiac Master groans)
(grunting)
- Ling, the band!
- Empower the dragon!
(flame whooshing)
(groaning)
Xuan, get out of the way.
(fire sizzles and explodes)
- Empower the Shadow Dragon!
(energy crackles)
- Too late, Ling.
You lose.
(Zodiac Master panting)
- This was just round one.
(smoke bomb booms)
- Hi-ya.
(sighs)
Thanks, Xuan.
I should've known Ling would cheat.
- It was not Ling's deception that nearly
cost the band of the Golden Dragon.
- I hate to say it, Ang, but Master Chin's right.
- Not you, too.
- Monkey calls it like Monkey sees it.
And I just saw you acting like a hothead.
Face it, Ang.
If I hadn't done my monkey on his back routine,
Zodiac Master would be wearing your band.
- Oh, so now you think you'd make
a better Dragon Guardian, too.
Oh wait, I forgot.
You always lost your powerband.
- Yeah. (growling)
What? Seriously, low blow dude.
- Enough, it is clear that I am
no longer able to teach you what is needed.
- Look, Master Chin,
I'm sorry.
- In the morning we journey to Vietnam
where you will meet the master who will
teach you the true meaning of remorse.
(whooshing)
- [Ang] So who is this teacher, Master Chin?
- [Master Chin] His name is Shoong.
Some would call him a hermit who
shuns the company of others.
- What would you call him?
- The Master of Sarcasm.
(Xuan hum noncommittally)
(Xuan wails)
(mud sloshing)
(pig squeals)
(boys panting)
(pig grunting)
- Anybody got a red cape?
Better yet, some barbecue sauce.
(pig snorts)
It was just a joke!
I'm a vegetarian.
Whoa.
(pig squealing)
Whoa!
- Come on, we found Shoong's pigsty.
His house can't be far.
- This is his home.
- [Ang] He's gotta be kidding.
(pig growls)
Ahhh!
- Please tell your master we have arrived.
(pig snorts)
(pig oinks)
(Dramatic music)
(boys exclaim)
(whooshing)
(Xuan gulps)
- Shoong.
- Master Chin, my old friend.
- It has been a long time.
- Too long.
- Ahh!
- Hmm, looks like a few scrawny strays
have followed you to my door.
- I am Ang, a Golden Dragon.
And this is Xuan Chi, Guardian of the Temple of the Monkeys.
- If you say so.
(chuckles)
Looks like they'll let anyone become
a temple guardian these days.
(pig laughs and snorts)
- Who's this guy think he is?
- Why don't you tell me.
(boys exclaim)
- As you can see, there is still much they need to learn.
- Starting with manners.
- Will you do them the honor of sharing your knowledge?
- I think my pig would learn faster,
but for you old friend, I will do what I can.
- Then I shall leave you to your task.
- [Boys] Leave?
- What? You can't just leave us here with him?
- And that mad pig!
(pig oinks)
- When they have learned what is needed,
I shall return for them.
- Wait, how long will that take?
- How long have you been my student?
- All my life, but what's that go to do--
- And still you have not learned.
- [Xuan] Hmm.
- Well, if I'm stuck with you we might as well get started.
- Oh.
- Unless you are afraid?
- Just show me whatever it is I'm supposed to learn.
- And what might that be, mighty dragon?
- Ugh, you mean you don't know?
Master Chin, wait!
Oof!
- Forget it, Xuan.
Can we just get this over with, please?
(Shoong snarls)
Can you believe this guy?
- Huh, he sure can't give lessons in charm.
Huh?
(pig snorts laughter)
(footsteps booming)
He is kind of (gulps) huge.
- That just means he'll be slow.
Keep moving, he won't be able to lay a hand on us.
- What are you waiting for?
An engraved invitation?
- Okay, you asked for it.
Ha!
Waah!
(screaming)
(pig laughs)
- So, he won't lay a hand on us?
Any other bright ideas?
(gasps)
- Who told you to take a rest?
Do it again, and this time try not to be so slow.
(pig snorting laughter)
(Birds twittering)
- [Ling] We should've stayed at the dojo.
I could've beaten Ang.
- [Zodiac Master] Sometimes a general attacks
to defeat his enemy,
and sometimes he attacks simply to
probe their weaknesses.
- Whatever that means.
- You and your bother are more alike than you want to admit.
- What?
I'm nothing like my brother.
- Once again, like your brother,
you react before you think.
- Yeah, well think about this.
They've left the dojo with the dragon powerband,
but we don't have a clue where they went.
- Every journey leaves a trail,
but not every traveler lives to return.
(whooshing)
(pig chomping)
- Alright, you show him Ang!
Ahh, uh, huh?
Huh?
(Ang grunts)
(Xuan chewing)
Cool, I'd give him a perfect 10.
Huh?
Why you big pig!
(Ang panting)
- Not good enough.
- What?
- You are too far back on your feet.
- There's nothing wrong with my, Ooph.
- You were saying?
- I'm tired of playing games.
You wanna see what I can do?
Come on, let's do it for real.
No holding back.
- Hang on, bad idea.
Really big, bad idea.
- No, let the dragon try his wings.
Come on, make my day.
- Maybe you oughta...
Hey, lots of luck, Pal.
- You ready?
- For you? Ha.
I only need to be awake.
And even then...
- Okay, that's it.
Ha!
(Ang screams)
(mud splattering)
(pig oinks)
(pig laughs)
Great, even the pig thinks he's better than me.
- At least he is wise enough to know
that appearances can be very deceiving.
- Okay, I get it.
I was wrong.
(Xuan laughs)
Oh, I don't believe it.
The Golden Dragon taking lessons from a pot bellied pig.
(Xuan gasps)
- Now you.
(Xuan gulps) - Me?
- Ooh, I'm really gonna enjoy this.
(pig laughs)
- Imagine I have just entered your temple uninvited.
Throw me out.
- With pleasure!
(Xuan grunting)
What exactly do you eat?
- Besides monkeys?
- Oh, I give up.
You're just too fa....
I mean big.
- A wise Greek once said, that with the right lever
he could move the moon.
- Which probably weighs a lot less than you.
(Xuan screams)
- Yep, really enjoying it.
- Try again, this time become the lever.
- Right, I am the lever!
(Xuan groaning)
(Shoong thuds)
Whoa! (laughs)
(whooshing)
(Shoong thudding)
I did it!
I really did it!
(Xuan laughs)
I became the lever and flipped the moon!
I mean, the Shoong.
- Don't push your luck, monkey boy.
(Xuan gasps)
- Right, sorry. (Xuan laughing)
- Nice going, Xuan.
- Thanks. (giggles)
- I saw what you did.
You helped him throw you.
- Leverage is important, but faith can move mountains.
Next time, he will believe he can so he will.
(pig grunting)
(whooshing)
(boys exclaiming)
It's getting late.
(boys yell)
We'll start again at first light.
Get some sleep.
You'll need it.
(pig laughing)
- You mean we have to sleep with a pig?
- Don't be ridiculous, you're sleeping outside.
(pig snorts)
(door slams)
- Huh?
That's cool.
(night birds calling)
No, no, temple raiders!
Oh no, no!
Temple!
(Xuan moaning)
(pig snorting)
- Ahh, back off pig breath.
- Try leverage.
- Aw, you're really asking for it pork chop.
(Shoong grunting)
(boys yelling)
- Pig is trying to save your sorry lives.
(boys groan with effort)
(energy crackling)
- The Zodiac Master.
(men exclaiming)
(pig squeals)
- I told you it would be easy to follow their trail,
but I had no idea they would lead us
to such a valuable prize.
- [Ang] Right, a pig pen.
- No, a temple so well hidden
few have ever known its location.
- Huh?
The Temple of the Pig?
(pig snorts)
Uh, you're the Pig Guardian.
- And you profess to be the Dragon Guardian.
Now prove it.
- Fair enough.
Empower the dragon!
- [Zodiac Master] Take them.
(screaming and grunting in exertion)
(blows landing)
- Hi-ya!
- Guardians, come with me.
(energy sizzling)
- [Ang] Whoa!
(door slams)
Whoa, some hut.
- [Xuan] Wow!
(powerband tinkling)
- Be ready.
- I am the lever.
I am the lever.
(pig snorting)
- Empower the Pig!
(door exploding)
- You ready for the last round?
- Zodiac Master is mine.
- [Ang] I'll take Ling.
- [Xuan] That leaves two for me!
- Do try to remember why Master Chin
dragged you to this pigsty.
- Ha, thanks.
(dramatic music)
- Ha! (Ling exclaims)
(blows clashing)
(fighters grunting)
(men yelling)
- What's wrong loser?
Can't win even with your pretty band?
- Forget it, Ling.
You're not gonna get me with words.
You'll need this!
Ha!
Ooph.
- I am the lever!
(groaning)
It worked!
Shoong really is a great teacher.
- Ha!
(Zodiac Master screaming)
- Now to make you wish you had never found this temple.
- Hurry!
(smoke bomb explodes)
- It would appear the lessons here have concluded.
(pig snorts)
- You could say we all taught each other
a few new tricks, right? (boys gasp)
- Right. (pig laughs)
- Right.
(whooshing)
(adventurous music)
(gong reverberates)
