(suspenseful music)
(alarm beeping)
(alarm blaring)
- We've got a break out, lock down the yard.
Lock down the yard!
(relaxed music)
- [Zodiac Master] Twins.
Both destined for greatness
but only one can wear the Golden Powerband of the Dragon.
Only one can use it's power
to battle the forces of darkest evil.
The other must decide which path she will take.
(suspenseful music)
Only one, the chosen one can be
the new Golden Dragon.
(suspenseful music)
(alarm blaring)
- Tommy Vu?
- Yeah, what of it?
- If you ar set free tonight,
what is the first that you will do?
- Destroy the man responsible
for having me locked away for the last 18 years.
Master Chin Ho.
(wall cracking)
(suspenseful music)
Thanks, whoever you are.
Now I've got a score to settle.
- I sure hope you know what you're doing.
- Sometimes there is but a single path,
both up and down the mountain.
(upbeat music)
- Ladies and gentleman,
it's time for Robo Ninja Fest.
- [Xuan Chi] You're pounding my eardrums.
Turn it down eh?
- What? I can't hear you.
- Use these.
- Oh yeah cool, headphones.
Whoa surround.
- Phew.
- Bring on the grapple bots.
- That does look kind of fun.
- Please, one computer geek Guardian is enough around here.
- And here we go.
The competitors eye one another,
checking out their weaknesses.
Who'll make the first move?
(moaning)
Oh a take down from behind.
(suspenseful music)
- Where's Xuan?
- The janitor is taking out the trash.
Yes my friends, it a battle of steel will--
- [Tommy] Where is Chin?
(groans)
- A master blaster to the solar plexus.
- Tell me where Master Chin is
and I might not hurt you again.
- Hurt me?
I think it's my turn to do the hurting around here.
(groaning)
- What a brilliant move!
And it's not over yet fight fans.
(groaning)
Ooh how much punishment can the challenger take?
(groaning)
Hey what's the big idea?
- That!
(suspenseful music)
- [Together] Empower the--
(groaning)
- I said where is Master Chin?
- Not here.
- Wrong answer.
(groaning)
- Empower the Tiger!
(growls)
- Empower the Dragon!
- So, you're Temple Guardians?
Yeah I know all about 'em.
- Then you know what we can do to you.
So start talking, who are you?
And what do you want with Master Chin?
- Just tell the old man it's no use trying to hide.
I'm coming for him.
(suspenseful music)
(groaning)
- He's gone.
- Who, who was the nutcase?
- No idea, but I think we better check the Dragon Temple.
(suspenseful music)
Careful if he knew about us,
he may know about the temple to.
(Xuan screams)
- As a matter of fact, I do.
(gasping)
Now where is Master Chin?
Or I'll break him in half.
- (moans) Put, put me down, or else.
Never mind.
- Stop.
Look his friend Master Shoong came to visit and--
- Oh that big ham hock is here too?
- They both left after dinner.
- We don't know where they went,
or when they'll be back.
Now put him down.
- Sure.
(screams)
(groaning)
(device beeps)
(gasping)
(explosion booms)
(coughing)
- Do you think he's really gone?
- For now.
- Hey guys, check this out.
(suspenseful music)
This looks like Master Chin's journal.
- Put that back Beingal, we've got enough trouble already.
- I think Master Chin's the one in trouble.
That guys knows him, this temple and Master Shoong.
What is going on?
- I don't know, but I bet this journal could give us a lead.
(suspenseful music)
- Hmm.
(device beeps)
Our intruders face is all over the news.
Someone just busted him out.
The guys name is Tommy Vu.
- Wow, did you guys know Master Chin
was once a Temple Guardian.
- Oh was he a Dragon Guardian?
- No Master Chin was a Pig Guardian.
- (whistles) If it was before Master Shoong,
Chin must be older than dirt.
- Even older than that.
It was before a Guardian named Tommy Vu.
- An ex-Temple Guardian in jail.
- Yeah and he was doing 25 to life, according to the news.
- Does, does he talk about us in there?
- Here's something else Master Chin never told us.
For 12 hours, once every 12 years,
each Powerband experiences a unique hibernation process.
- All the bands at the same time?
- No, but it says that when it happens,
the Band has to remain within the Temple walls.
- And if anyone touches the Band,
its powers will be absorbed by that person.
- The band becomes useless and its power remain forever
within the body of the Power Thief.
- Let me guess.
The next band to hibernate is--
- [Together] Pig.
- Well now we know where Master Chin is.
- Come on, we're going to Vietnam
before Tommy Vu figures this out.
- Thanks for the info.
(suspenseful music)
(engine revving)
- [Ang] With any luck we beat him here.
(shouting and cheering)
- Oh no!
No!
(clattering)
- Are you okay?
- I nearly lost by banana that time.
(moans)
(laughs)
(suspenseful music)
- Master Chin.
- Master Shoong, are you here?
(growls)
(squealing)
(screams)
(whimsical music)
(moaning)
- Get off me you pot bellied pork chop.
- Looks like someone's happy to see you.
- [Master Chin] He is not the only one.
- We're really sorry we read your journal,
but after the attack--
- I told 'em not too.
- Your decision was wise.
- But I didn't stop 'em either.
- It's hard to imagine the Tommy Vu we saw
ever being a Guardian of the magnificent Temple.
- Hmm, he became a true pig for the power,
He was consumed by it.
And that is why I was chosen to replace him.
- He abused his position
and endangered the Universe of Bands.
(suspenseful music)
He became obsessed, blinded by greed.
(engine revving)
(magic zapping)
- [Master Shoong] So he used his sacred powers
to steal whatever pleased him.
(brakes squeal)
(groans)
- [Master Chin] And I was forced
to strip him of his Guardianship,
take away his Powerband and have him arrested.
- Then last night, we threw a little (laughs)
break our party for him.
(gasps)
- What? - Why?
- You broke him out.
- It is time for the 12 hour cycle of the Pig Band.
- All Temple Guardians, both past and present,
both mortal and immortal.
- Must be present for the powers of the Band
to be rejuvenated for the next 12 year cycle.
- So that's why you broke him out.
He still has to be part of the ceremony.
- Even in dishonor, he remains one of the Temple Guardians.
- But what if he tries to steal the band?
- Then you will stop him.
- With what?
A tank?
He's practically a one man army.
- And you are a small army.
(Powerband vibrating)
(peaceful music)
Whatever you see.
- Whatever you hear.
- No matter who tries to steal the Powerband.
- Do not touch it under any circumstance
or we will not be able to return.
- Return?
Wait, you aren't leaving us, are you?
- Yes.
- And no.
(suspenseful music)
- What's happening?
(magic zapping)
Master Chin?
- Master Shoong?
(gasps)
- Ah, my eyes.
- Is that really Master Chin and Master Shoong?
- Oh yeah.
- Now what's gotten into him?
- Think about what it's gonna be like aren't you?
- Yeah.
When it's my turn to turn into a real dragon.
You too?
- Oh yeah, to actually be a tiger.
- Whoa, whoa, oh no.
Oh no!
- What is it?
- What if it happens to the Monkey Band before I find it?
(squealing)
- Shoong's pig, sounds like trouble's arrived.
(speaking in foreign language)
(squealing)
- Well well, everybody's here.
(squealing)
(gas hisses)
- [Beingal] No, don't hurt him.
- (laughs) Porksicle anyone?
- You vicious--
- You got that right kitten.
Now all of you, back off or I'll give you a chill.
- You know, I'm considered a pretty cool customer myself.
So why don't you save us all a lot of trouble
and act like a real Temple Guardian.
- Sure kid.
Right after I grab my Powerband.
- That's what I thought you'd say.
Alright then.
Empower the Dragon!
(suspenseful music)
- Empower the Tiger!
(growls)
- Stop, he's a walking deep freeze.
One power blast hits those tanks
and we'll all be ice sculptures.
- Monkey brains right.
Now you can save us all a lot of trouble
by handing over your Bands.
- He's almost as funny as he looks.
- Okay.
We'll do it the hard way.
(groans)
(gas hisses)
(groaning)
- Get on!
(groans)
Giddy up!
Yeeha!
- Thanks for the lift.
(laughs)
(squealing)
(groaning)
(screams)
(suspenseful music)
- Nice move.
- (groans) Thanks.
Come on, let's put that freezer freak under wraps.
- Huh?
He's gone.
- He can't have gone far.
Let's split up.
You go with Xuan Chi, he may need your help.
(squealing)
- Thanks loads.
Try to keep up.
(groaning)
(gasps)
(screams)
Ah, help!
(pig laughs)
- Hmm, no sign of him.
- We didn't see him either.
- He must have doubled back on us.
- [Together] The Temple!
(suspenseful music)
- For 18 years I've dreamed of this day,
when I take back my Pig power.
(pig snorts)
(suspenseful music)
(groaning)
(grunting)
(gas hisses)
(explosion booms)
(groans)
- Don't let him touch the Band.
(explosion booms)
- [Beingal] Watch him!
- I lost him.
- There's too much smoke!
- Your power is mine.
- [Xuan Chi] Wrong!
Your greedy pig snout is mine! - What's going on?
No, stop!
(groaning)
This can't be happening.
I'm too close.
- And this little piggies going wee, wee, wee (laughs).
Oh no!
Stop (laughs).
(peaceful music)
(grunting)
- Safe journey my friends.
- I believe you have something of mine.
- Master, why didn't you ever tell us
you used to be the Pig Guardian?
- Or about the Temple Guardians
turning into their Zodiac animals once every 12 years?
- It is always better for a student
to ask some of the questions,
than to know all of the answers.
- Wait does your journal say
when it happens to the Monkey Band?
- Relax Xuan Chi,
you will have many years in which to locate your band.
- Phew, in that case (mumbles).
Hey Master Chin, what's gonna happen to Tommy Vu?
(suspenseful music)
- [Tommy] Let me out of here!
I swear I'll get even with Chin
if it's the last thing I ever do!
(suspenseful music)
