Fair enough, then step this way. Just follow my lead. I've studied many traditions, so you'll recognize most of the moves, but in this order they're gonna take you somewhere else. I call it harnessing the Five Elemental Energies.
But you are. Our bodies always give away our inner truth. Release whatever's binding you: pain, lack, fear, and replace it with energy, abundance, trust. You are rooted, tied to the force that binds all life. Let it course through you. Let it replace everything that is broken.
There's a difference between "secret" and "secure". You see, we take in people from all walks of life who need safety. They need that because their lives were complicated, even dangerous sometimes. Because of that, we try and keep a low profile. We give them a safe have, and much more.
I've been trying to stop her for a long time. I have seven students here rehabbing from her drugs. When you ask me what's in it for me, that's what it is. There are Gaos everywhere. I need you to train and lead a group of people who will take care of those that our culture's left behind: The marginalized and forgotten. People like Colleen, people like you.
Is that how you feel? Inside? You know you don't fit in at Rand. I've read the news, you can use help there as well. I can provide that, but your destiny is here, doing something only you can do.
Is that what this is? I offer you freedom, was willing to let you live whatever life you wanted, and you rejected that offer, pursued and kidnapped me. Then, you ran towards slavery as fast as you could. You're an idiot.
We are living in a new age, where governments aren't the true controllers of man's destinies. It's corporations like Rand Enterprises that govern the world.
No. He's always been a bastard to me, ever since he came back from the dead. It's like... a piece of his soul got left in the grave. He will use you, hurt you, and throw you aside without a second thought.
This is all very touching, but... time is up. [draws his sword] This blade has cut down kings, emperors, lords and tyrants. If you would've told me I might use it on a... businessman−
Yeah. Ward, I invested my life into you, to raise you to be a great man. You've been the biggest disappointment of my life. Joy, I apologize for choosing Ward over you, it was a mistake. Never trust him again. Joy, I love you.
When I was a child, my mother told me the story of the Sack Man, a sort of boogeyman who shows up at disobedient children's homes and steals them away in his sack to sell them. It's nonsense really, but it kept us in line, nobody wanted to be captured by him.
Not just mine. There's someone in our organization who's very anxious to work with you. We're going to change the world. The promises I've made you are still in place. I'll help you realign your qi, so you can access the Iron Fist again. I'll help you become what you were meant to be.
Is this really who you want to be? A living weapon? An assassin for K'un-Lun? Is that what your father had in mind for you, when he was raising you to be Danny Rand? If you kill me, then all you'll ever be is K'un-Lun's Iron Fist, in a long line of living weapons, whose only purpose is to be used by others.
