(dramatic theatrical music)
(laughing)
- Do you realize what we've done, Shadow Dragon?
It was almost too easy.
Not one of the three temple guardians ever knew
what hit them.
The Emperor of the Darkest Yin
will be very pleased indeed.
- Maybe, but my brother sure isn't.
And I have a feeling he's very close.
Take a different route.
- Are you telling me what to do?
- I'm telling you it's a twin thing.
I can feel him out there.
- We'll stay the course.
The Emperor awaits and this is the shortest route
to his lair.
(footsteps crunching)
(grunting)
(dramatic flute music) - I warned you.
Empower the Shadow Dragon!
(dramatic theatrical music)
- You've been busy.
(grunting)
(laughing) - What a team!
(strikes thudding)
(grunting)
(shouting) (thudding)
(beam zapping)
- There's only one way to deal with pirates.
(electricity zapping) (shouting)
- Ang!
(lively theme music)
- [Narrator] Twins, both destined for greatness,
but only one can wear the golden power band
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.
(dramatic theme music)
Only one, the chosen one,
can be the new Golden Dragon.
(dramatic percussive music)
- Get the other bands.
I shall claim what is mine.
(grunting) - First she gets hers,
(beam zapping) now you get yours.
(beam zapping)
(explosion booming)
(shouting)
- Get us out of here, Xuan Chi.
- Aye-aye, Captain.
(water splashing)
- You did well today.
It is time to return the bands to their temples.
(rooster crowing) (thunder crashing)
(mysterious string music)
Whoa!
- I hope there's a surge protector on this thing.
(grunting)
(shouting) (bodies thudding)
(electricity zapping)
Master Chin, what was that?
- Look!
The bands never transferred.
- The rooster one did.
So I guess my job is done here.
(grunting)
Hey!
How did you--
- A dangerous imbalance is growing
between the forces of yin and yang.
- I guess we'll have to return these bands in person.
- The powers of Darkest Yin
are being drawn to the temple's shadow bands.
- The shadow bands?
You mean the dark power bands.
- Yes.
As with the Shadow Dragon band,
there is also a shadow band
for each of the other Zodiac Signs.
- Right, for every positive there's got to be a negative.
- And for every in there's got to be an out,
which is right where I'm headed.
(thudding) (shouting)
- And for every up there is a down.
Go together and be careful.
As you have discovered before, the shadow bands
are hidden deep within each temple.
Find the Dark Keystone.
Although the shadow bands were created
to help maintain the universal balance,
their dark powers can overtake anyone who uses them.
- Just like the Shadow Dragon band did to my sister.
(dramatic theatrical music)
(torch flames crackling)
- [The Zodiac Master] The Emperor will not take the news
of today's defeat lightly.
- Look, I don't know what the deal is with you
and that thing in there,
but I don't want any part of it.
This is as far as I go.
- You dare dishonor the Emperor!
- The Emperor?
Give me a break.
He's a thousand-year-old creep
who couldn't blow out a birthday candle.
- I assure you
he is more powerful than you can imagine.
Once I've helped him restore his mystical dark force,
the Emperor will rule again.
- You're serious?
You think if you let that thing suck your energy,
he'll come back?
- My energy is not enough.
He needs four power bands.
With the three we had and yours--
- Mine?
- Of course.
After all, the Emperor wore it long before you.
But in order to complete his restoration,
it may take a balance of yin and yang,
a combination of shadow and light.
- Well just count me out.
The whole thing's too weird.
(gasps)
- When the Emperor returns,
he will reward those who helped him.
You would be wise to remember that.
(dramatic orchestral music)
Your Highness, tonight I had three temple bands
in my grasp.
The Shadow Dragon failed me,
but I swear, it will not-- (altar rumbling)
(torch flame roaring) (temple rumbling)
(explosions booming)
(thunder crashing)
(electricity zapping)
(groaning) (electricity zapping)
(thunder crashing)
- [Mysterious Voice] You will bring her to me.
- Ling! (gasping)
- [The Zodiac Master] Help me!
Ling!
(mysterious zapping)
(explosion booming)
Come closer, my Shadow Dragon.
- Empower the Shadow Dragon!
(electricity zapping) (dramatic theatrical music)
(rays zapping)
(gasps)
(grunting)
(laughing)
You cannot fight me.
Tonight I need to walk this earth
through another form.
- You have the Zodiac Master!
- No!
I desire a true Dragon.
(grunting)
Well, together, you and I
will be more powerful
than a hundred Golden Dragons.
(monster growling)
(laughing)
(flame roaring)
- [Ling] This is too creepy.
(monster roaring)
- [Emperor Of The Darkest Yin] Give yourself over
to the power of the Darkest Yin.
Even without a power band of the Light of the Yang,
with enough shadow bands my restoration can begin.
(monster growling) (flames roaring)
(dramatic theatrical music)
(screaming)
(adventurous orchestral music)
- Woo-hoo!
Waa!
- Just goes to show, you can take the monkey
out of the jungle, but you can't take the jungle
out of our monkey boy.
(phone ringing)
- Ang here.
- Ang!
Beware, shadow bands have been stolen
from the Temple of the Rats
and the Temple of the Pigs.
- We didn't even have a chance
to get their guardian bands to them yet.
- The thieves knew those temples were vulnerable.
And Ang, there will be another.
Beingal's Temple is unguarded.
- Right. (gasps)
(birds chirping) (dramatic theatrical music)
(trees crackling)
(roaring)
- We're here.
The Temple of the Tigers.
- You are certain the Guardian is away?
- Yes, but Beingal has a really big cat
that protects the place when she's gone.
(dramatic theatrical music)
(growling)
And there's Whiskers now.
- We can handle her.
- No, I won't hurt an innocent animal.
- You'll do as I say.
- No!
(growling)
(thudding) (growling)
(electricity zapping)
If you harm her--
- I'm only draining a little of her life force.
(growling) (laughing)
(growling) (yawning)
- You spared her.
- I chose to honor your wishes, girl, this time.
But now I expect complete loyalty from you.
(water splashing)
(dramatic theatrical music)
(growling)
The Shadow Temple Keystone!
- How did you know that was under there?
- Little has changed since I was last here,
over a thousand years ago.
I, Emperor of the Darkest Yin,
invoke the power of the Darkest Yin.
Empower the Shadow Tiger Temple!
(electricity zapping) (thunder crashing)
(dramatic theatrical music)
- Sheral!
Who did this to you? (growling)
Something's inside the temple.
Empower the Tiger!
- Beingal, wait for me!
Empower the Dragon!
(dramatic theatrical music)
- [Xuan] Right behind you.
(dramatic theatrical music)
(growling)
- Right here where I left it,
a thousand years ago.
- And now you can put it right back
for the next thousand years.
(shouting)
- Hello, brother, dear.
- Ling?
- That'll be Emperor of the Darkest Ling, to you.
- Aah!
And I thought she was a monster before.
(growling) (beam zapping)
(explosion booming) (shouting)
(grunting)
(beams zapping)
(thudding) Yeah!
Guys, I got her.
- Get off me, you gnat.
- Okay, I don't got her.
- Stop!
You'll hit Xuan Chi.
- No!
(grunting) (growling)
Ooh! (thudding)
(grunting)
- The entire world will soon know
the awesome power
of the Emperor of the Darkest Yin.
(laughing)
(flames roaring)
(waterfall splashing)
(growling)
- With the power of the Shadow Dragon
combined with these three shadow bands,
I will return to command
my legions of darkness once more.
(growling)
- Sheral!
(dramatic theatrical music)
- Xuan, put this back where it belongs.
- Got it!
(growling) (thudding)
(claws swishing) (howling)
- Let Sheral go!
(claws whizzing)
(thudding) (groaning)
(growling)
- How are we gonna get the other two shadow bands back?
- [Master Shung] With a little help from us.
- [Ang] Master Shung, Ming!
- Just need our power bands.
- Here you go!
(laughing)
- Empower the Rat!
- Empower the Pig!
(electricity zapping)
(pig oinking)
I feel like a new pig.
(growling)
(beam zapping) (explosion booming)
(thudding)
- Let's join powers.
(growling)
(beam zapping)
(roaring)
(beams zapping)
(growling)
(beams zapping)
Release my sister!
(beams zapping) (groaning)
(howling)
(thudding)
(vapors hissing)
- You may have won this battle, Golden Dragon,
but the war has just begun.
(vapors hissing) (dramatic theatrical music)
(mysterious whirring)
(groaning)
(tranquil string music) (groaning)
- Ling!
Are you okay?
- I, I think so.
Where's the Emperor?
- Who?
Or should I say what was that?
And what were you doing?
- I was tasting more power than you'll ever know,
even as Golden Dragon.
- Whatever that thing is, he was just using you, Ling.
- You don't know anything about it.
- I know you're in way over your head.
- No, you are, because once I help him
get the power bands he needs,
the Emperor of the Darkest Yin is going to crush you.
- Ling, do you know what you're saying?
- Oh yes! (thudding)
(grunting)
- Ling!
(tranquil string music) (crickets chirping)
(dramatic theatrical music)
- Oh!
Go back.
Is the Emperor furious!
- Tell me about it.
So, you've still got two shadow bands,
and mine would make three.
Is it enough?
(dramatic orchestral music)
(grunting)
- What do you want?
- [Ling] No hello, how are you?
- Sure, how's it going in the land of darkest evil?
- You're not gonna make this easy, are you?
- Like I said, what do you want?
- Just thought it would be nice to act like family,
at least when I'm not kicking your golden tail.
- Come on, what, Ling?
- I hate to admit it, but you might have been right.
- You're just handing them over?
- Zodiac Master will go ballistic when he finds out.
And I'd hate to think what the Emperor
would do if he ever comes back.
That's the problem, I can't imagine what would happen
if he actually did.
- You're doing the right thing, Ling.
Thank you.
Now what about that one?
- Don't push your luck, brother.
(grunting)
- Why do you think she did it, Master Chin?
- Our deeds determine who we are
as much as who we are determine our deeds.
There is still good within Ling,
but monumental evil threatens to destroy that goodness,
and any and all it touches.
The Emperor of the Darkest Yin.
