The Collapse

[KingKovu44]

Cheng sighed. "All sorts: ones like the one we fought yesterday, small four-legged ones with big teeth that snap at your heels, big, muscular ones that are nearly impossible to beat...the list goes on," he said.

"Oh well with all those Kung-Fu moves of yours it can't be too hard. And I'm sure the rest of us can fight hard enough too." Ash said trying to pep up everyone.

[KingKovu44]

Cheng smiled politely. "Thank you, Ash, but remember that I'm still only a student. I'm still young and still have much to learn. My moves pale in comparison to those of my parents or parents-in-law, or those of Master Shifu, Master Oogway and all the other masters," he said.

[TheLionQueen]

"Oh well, we can break these guys. If we all work together." Ash said cracking her neck.

[KingKovu44]

Cheng's face stayed completely neutral. "Yes, but remember that what we seek is not their utter destruction, but to put an end to the threat they present," he stated.

[TheLionQueen]

"Yeah I'll remember that." Ash said walking on the soft grass. "So is this king gonna be hard to kill? Is he like an expert fighter or something?" Ash asked unsure.

[KingKovu44]

Cheng looked down. "My parents fought him when they visited the island. They said he's quite a tubby reptile, but he moves quickly and he's rather strong," he said.

[TheLionQueen]

"Great, just what we needed a fat and quick lizard. Well the bigger they are the harder they fall right!" Ash said trying not to discourage the group.

[KingKovu44]

Cheng chuckled. "I think once we've worn him out, I'll use the Wuxi finger hold to finish him off," he said.

"The what now?" Mhuni knew nothing of Kung Fu, so this was rather new to her. She sort of wished sometimes that she didn't walk on all fours.
