While Uncle and I search for the horse, you two will wait here and stay out of trouble.
Now see here, just because I look like a child doesn't mean you can treat me like one!
I am treating you like a criminal. Tohru will treat you like a child.
TTohru
Now... [pops knuckles] Are you going to be a good little boy?
TTohru
[holding a very large boulder] Hak Foo! This is where you go poof.
[hurls the boulder at Hak Foo, who doesn't move; the boulder hits him, only to shatter, not even phasing Hak Foo]
I am Valmont. Don't you remember me?
TTohru
I remember nothing.
[to himself] Jolly good potion. [to Tohru] It would seem you are the victim of amnesia. Allow me to fill in some blanks. I am the leader of the Dark Hand, a premiere crime syndicate, and you work for me.
TTohru
[looking around at Valmont's rundown apartment] "Premiere crime syndicate"?
Um, a temporary setback, I assure you. But it was only yesterday that you and I were at the top of our game! [shows him a photo album of him during his Dark Hand days] See? You made the FBI's Most Wanted, three years running.
TTohru
Oh, so it is true... But how?
Our nemesis must have throttled you famously for your entire memory to just up and vanish.
[flips a page] Jackie Chan.
Many thanks for your help, Chan. A shame Tohru must render you senseless so we may get on with our crime unhindered. Tohru, if you please?
TTohru
You were not so loyal to your loyal henchman.
Well, I- I was simply hoping to duck away and find a large mallet with which to assist.
TTohru
Something inside tells me that Jackie is my friend.
And something inside tells me that you are forgetting who is boss!
[to Jackie and Tohru] So you think Uncle's old friend calls him "Uncle" too?
WWing
[to Uncle] Chuckles, is that you?
JTJackie, Tohru, and Jade
[to each other] Huh?? Chuckles??
WWing
So, you remember your nickname
Ha ha ha! Who can forget those fuzzy caterpillars living over your eyes?
WWing
And your never-ending pranks and gift of laughter.
[turning to Jackie} Is he talking
WWing
So, you have come to
[the background actors exchange slight bows with Uncle out of respect]
And to introduce my family to you. My nephew Jackie...
WWing
Ah, yes. Butterfingers.
Uh, hello. I have heard so much about you. I am sorry I have to run. I am mounting an exhibit at the pacific Asia museum. Uh... Bye-bye. [he rushes off]
Please excuse his manners. And this is my apprentice Tohru.
TTohru
[playing handheld video game which pings] Hehe. [clears thoat] This alarm tells me I must tend to the shop now. A pleasure meeting you. [waves goodbye before rushing off]
And last, but not least, my great-niece Jade.
Duplicates are imperfect. They contain flaws, like Chang's extra hand, but each is more powerful than its human counterpart due to its magic.
Aw, we can take them Unc. We'll face off in the epic battle royale! Human vs clone, good vs evil, Jade vs Jade!
You missed Uncle's point! Magic must defeat magic!
["Jackie" enters the room]
Look who decided to show.
JCJackie Clone
Sorry I am late.
Now, one more thing. We must be very watchful for these defective duplicates.
[Jackie enters the room in a rush]
Uncle, we must watch out for-
TTohru
It is Jackie's Clone!
What?! [sees his clone] No! Wait! [is tackled by the J-Team] I am me! He is not me!
JCJackie Clone
Tricky clone, isn't he?
Which is the real Jackie Chan?
I have a little quiz only the real Jackie could answer. Jackie, when is my birthday?
JJJackie and Jackie Clone
Oh... uh...
[bummed out] Jackie, I thought we were pretty good friends...
Ahem. Hey Jackie, will you take me to Moose World this weekend?
JCJackie Clone
Of course!
[points to the clone] There's your clone.
[pause; Jackie's clone kicks the door down and runs off]
JCJackie Clone
Sorry, I'll be back to destroy you later, thank you!
TTohru
It goes on to say that Tarakudo once terrorized the land of the trusted oni generals. Each demon general control its own army which was composed of different tribe of ShadowKhan. [Jackie slaps his forehead]
I will prefer not to find out.
TTohru
Tarakudo's reign came to an end when the spirits of his generals were trapped within masks. 9 generals,9 masks.
9 different types of ShadowKhan.
Let me guess. The masks were scattered across the Earth?
TTohru
Yep. Uh.... One more thing. Should the 9 masks ever be rejoined their combined power summon enough ShadowKhan to engulf the entire Earth eternal darkness.
Aiya! Tohru, you must do research!
You were told by childhood tales of oni by mother. You read Japanese, you are Japanese so you must do research!
