My tattoo just has to be gnarly.
This is a symbol of great evil.
Awaken from shadow! Serve your new master!
Gan! Ren! Chui! Zhen!
Prepare for battle!
Wow! We rock!
Uhh! Uhh!
Yah! Ooh! Uhh!
(Gasps)
Busted.
(Jade sighs)
Dullsville.
No. The capital of Georgia is Atlanta.
Jade, your geography test is tomorrow.
Let's try Oregon.
Why does tohru get to study the fun stuff?
Uncle is waiting.
I know this one.
That is a symbol for a conjuring spell,
one which requires garlic and...Ginger?
Correct... If you are making chicken chow mein!
Do you plan on becoming chi wizard, tohru?
Then you must prepare for day
when new evil enters our world.
Bon appetit.
Want gruel with that?
Today's special.
Hey, how's that special sauce coming?
(Chanting)
This had better work, "wizard."
While I no longer possess my full powers...
I, daolon wong, have amassed the spell ingredients
required to make our escape.
(Chanting becomes feverish)
Come to me. Yes!
Liberate us, shadowkhan!
Rise, my army of darkness!
Tarakudo: Your army?!
Huh? Huh? Huh?
I am the one and only king of the shadowkhan!
Tarakudo? Awakened?
And ready to reclaim my ninja magic,
a task for which I will require "assistance."
Ratso: Uh...
Finn: We have to go check on dessert now.
(Roars) Aah!
Yahh! Uhh!
(Escape sirens)
Jackie, the dark hand thugs have escaped from prison.
(Gasps) Daolon wong!
Good news is, the "wizard" is still in custody.
(Cell phone rings)
Black.
Miller airfield?
Send in every available agent.
Huh?
Your assistance will not be necessary!
Magic will defeat magic!
Good-bye.
Uncle: Daolon wong or no daolon wong...
A new, greater evil has forced its way into our realm!
When we find dark hand thugs, we will find this evil.
Hurry!
Yes!
50 states, 50 capitals.
Uhh!
Serve me well, and your reward will be great.
Yeah...About that.
We appreciate you busting us out and all, tarakudo-San,
but the truth is, we're kinda burnt out
on the whole - henchman-for-hire thing.
Ah! You require motivation, then.
Aah! Aah! Aah!
Ok.
When do we start?
Ready to work!
Phew! (Sighs of relief)
That's the spirit!
Now, where is this "dark hand jet"?
Visitors?
Jackie chan and friends!
He's always gettin' in our way.
So now would be an excellent time to bring on the ninjas!
Not just yet. Ready the plane.
(Roars)
(Gasps) Oni.
(Gasps)
Uh, "new evil," right?
The symbol of the shadowkhan!
What fun is a "symbol" without drums?!
Tohru! Come on, big fella.
Trying to save you a nasty bruise here.
Uhh!
(Gasps)
Captain black!
(Moans)
Uncle: Jackie! Quickly! Floating head!
Aah! Dahh! Ooh!
Ehh!
Hey, Jackie.
Bwaaa!
Before you get mad, listen.
The capital of Kansas is Kansas City.
The capital is Topeka, and that is not the point!
Uh-oh.
Whoa.
You.
Ah! The former "queen of the shadowkhan."
Returning to the forces of darkness?
Thank you, no. Not today!
Er--what Jackie said.
In time. You're young.
Find cover.
Enforcers: Come on!
The spells are not working!
Aah! Aah!
That is because you do not study hard enough!
Hmm. Spell work after all.
No. Something tells me big head got on the plane.
Black: Jackie!
You want a barf bag, chan?
'Cause you're about to experience some air sickness.
Aah! Whoa!
Buh-bye.
Aah!
Bad day, bad day, bad day, bad day!
It's Jackie, and he doesn't appear to have a parachute.
Tohru, catch Jackie!
Uh...
Happy trails, chan.
Huh?
(Yells)
Jackie would so not approve.
Aah--aah--aah-- aah--aah--aah-- aah--aah--aah!
Hey, Jackie!
Bwaaa! Jade!
Never exit an aircraft without one of these!
Good catch, tohru.
Quickly now! We must follow floating head!
(Groans)
(Grunts)
Mommy!
(Panting)
Tohru? Tohru?
Heh! Bad dream.
Lemme guess. Mr. creepy head?
Jade, you are supposed to be with captain black.
Thought I should be here in case you fall from another plane.
The head. It reminded me of the oni.
The who-ni?
When I was a child growing up in Japan,
my mother told me tales of the oni--
hideous, horned demons
who would sneak into the rooms of disobedient children.
And what did they want with these disobedient children?
The oni would--(Gulps)-- Eat their souls! Eww!
So these oni are like Japanese bogeymen.
Pfft! Fairy tales!
Floating head cannot be "oni."
It can't?
Of course not!
Everyone who has controlled the shadowkhan has been Chinese!
Shendu, Chinese! Daolon wong, Chinese!
But oni are Japanese!
(Beep)
Radar indicates the dark hand jet has landed in Hong Kong.
See? Hong Kong! Chinese!
Jackie: Shendu's palace?
Shendu collected many artifacts possessing great magic.
Floating head may be seeking one of these.
Check it out! Rabbit hole!
Uh...I will stand guard outside.
don't be afraid, t.
It's just a silly old head.
(Gulps)
Just a silly old soul-stealing,
shadowkhan-controlling head.
Tarakudo: Ahh! Consider it a gift.
Oh, just like Christmas!
Bet there's a ton of treasure in it!
Dude, you brought us all this way for a mask?
It was from this "mask" that shendu drew the power
to control his shadowkhan army
and through which daolon wong's magic
channeled - that very same power.
Why don't you see how it fits?
(Gasps) Jackie!
I know.
Yes!
Peek-a-boo!
Seagull shucks oyster!
Aah! (Grunts)
(Growls)
Aah! Aah!
Uhh!
Ooh!
Again?!
Who are these people?
Well, Jackie chan's some kind of do-gooder,
and the big guy over there used to be one of us,
but now he's on their side,
and the old guy pointing the blowfish--uhh!
Who else wants a piece of uncle?!
You have no idea who you are dealing with.
Enlighten me.
Bow before tarakudo, king of all shadowkhan,
lord of all oni!
(Gasps) So you are Japanese!
Uhh!
Consider yourself enlightened.
Tohru!
Uhh!
Huh?
Tarakudo: Mind over matter!
Mine! Not so fast!
Hey!
What's going on?!
Grr! I wanted that!
Handsome devil, isn't he?
Chow here will stick around and familiarize himself with his new powers
while we make further preparations.
Aah! Uhh! Aah!
What does he mean by "further preparations"?
(Grunts)
Aah!
Four against one. Now, that hardly seems fair.
(Roars)
Uh...Jackie?
I'm getting the feeling
this masked thing gives chow the power to summon...
Shadowkhan.
(Efforting)
Uhh!
Boo!
Face your fear, t!
(Growls)
Uhh!
Light as a feather!
Waaah--uhh!
Uhh!
Aiyaaa!
We must remove demon mask from host
in order to defeat shadowkhan!
Jackie, one more thing!
Keep shadowkhan busy, so uncle can cast proper spell!
I am trying, uncle. Aah!
What spell would that be, sensei?
("I don't know" sound)
Hey, lookee here.
Maybe this picture book can help.
Catch me if you can!
Chan hunt!
What do the inscriptions say, unc?
These are Japanese, kanji. Uncle only reads Chinese.
Uh, I read Japanese... But it has been many years.
In fact, I am probably too shaky,
so forget that I mentioned--
tohru, read kanji now!
Yes, sensei.
Uhh!
Aah!
(Efforting)
The kanji tell of ancient warriors
who once cast a spell to defeat this oni,
trapping its spirit within the mask.
The key ingredient was Japanese steel...
Specially forged for a samurai sword.
Aiyaa! We will not find steel of samurai sword here
because shendu is not Japanese!
Hmm.
Bwaaa!
Well, it doesn't say "made in Taiwan."
Smackdown time, chan!
Waaah! Daaah!
Uhh!
Daaah!
You've been working out, chow!
Jade, what makes you certain this is Japanese steel?
Uh...I'm not.
Haaah! Daaah!
Diiih! Ohh!
Daaah! Ohh!
Uhh! Ohh!
It's over, chan.
(Tohru and uncle chat)
Yes. It is.
(Chant finishes)
Jackie, remove mask!
Uhh! Get him off me!
Uhh! Uhh! Uhh!
Aah!
Ohh!
Aah! Aah!
Why isn't it coming off?
Patience!
Aah!
Uhh!
Destroy him!
"Boo."
Aah!
Perhaps this would be safer in the vault at section 13.
New evil has been defeated.
Um...One more thing.
Oh, no.
Guys?
Guys?!
Hey, guess this means I'm finally a free henchman. Heh heh!
Aah!
(Pants) don't do that!
You have failed me.
Do not fret. It is but a minor defeat.
That's cool.
Tarakudo's an ok guy.
Besides, our mission has only yet begun.
Uh...
It has?
It goes on to say...
That tarakudo once terrorized the land with his trusted oni generals.
Each demon general controlled its own army
which were comprised of a different tribe of shadowkhan.
Uh, different how?
I would prefer not to have to find out.
Tohru: Tarakudo's reign came to an end
when the spirits of his generals were trapped within masks.
9 generals, 9 masks.
9 "different" tribes of shadowkhan?
What are we waiting for?
There are 8 more masks which we must find
before forces of darkness do!
Let me guess.
The masks were scattered across the earth?
Yep. Uh, one more thing.
Should the 9 masks ever be revived,
their combined power may summon enough shadowkhan
to engulf the entire earth in eternal darkness.
Aiyaa! Tohru must do research!
He must?
You were told childhood tales of oni by mother.
You read Japanese.
You are Japanese, so you must do research!
(Gulps)
Yes, sensei.
Yes! New adventure, uh-huh! Find the masks, be the shadowkhan...
Hey Jackie do you ever get tired of traveling all over the world?
Yeah, I do get tired of traveling around the world.
I've been-- the last 20 years,
I've been travel, travel, travel.
One day I want to settle down,
have my own studio,
just shoot everything in the same place.
Then I don't have to travel anymore.
But, put another way, travel is good.
I learn so many things--
different cultures, different cities.
Everything's different.
Yeah. That's the good thing.
