Queen of the Jungle
Chapter 2 – Jungle Masters
“I have a special assignment for the three of you. 당신 may starve 또는 never come back alive, but it is necessary for warriors, like yourselves, to train yourselves in the harshest of conditions. You’ll have to endure burning, tropical heat, lack of water, and a lack of 음식 supply. If 당신 manage to pass, 당신 will indeed be deemed as true high-level masters…”
“That was our order from Shifu, 당신 guys. Now, let’s pick up the pace!” yelled 암펌, 호랑이 to 기중기, 크레인 and Monkey, who were severely lagging behind in step. “Oh… Why do we have to do this?” uttered Crane, “I don’t know how anyone can survive out here.” “Stop being a baby!” 암펌, 호랑이 scowled. “I think I’m going to like it here!” exclaimed. “And we only wonder why.” 암펌, 호랑이 replied, sarcastically. The three Kung Fu masters entered the jungle, with little water and no 음식 with them.
They entered a part of the jungle where ancient ruins dating back thousands of area stood firm, with moss and vines surrounding almost all of the stone structures. 암펌, 호랑이 then stepped onto what seemed to be a small platform. “You see.” she beamed, “Here lay the ruins of an ancient civilization, whose people actually made a living in this jungle, and managed to built all this despite all these conditions.” 기중기, 크레인 was still not convinced. “Yeah. And how long did these guys survive here?! Probably about a year.” Monkey sided with Tigress. “I don’t think they could build this in a year.” “Then, once they finished building their structures, they definitely would have left this place, and gone back to where they came from.” 기중기, 크레인 contiuned. Tigress’ face grew angrier. “Crane, I can tell this civilization lasted for centuries. These villagers became one with the jungle, with all its resources and climate. And that’s what we have to do as well. Understand?!” “Yes Tigress.” muttered Crane. “Then, let’s begin our training. We’ll do it right here.” 암펌, 호랑이 declared proudly.
With Monkey’s help, 암펌, 호랑이 set up three wooden targets throughout the ruins. The two had chopped down several of the older trees, and carved out a target 원, 동그라미 towards the 상단, 맨 위로 of the trunk. “Crane, for use to become masters at a highest possible level, we’ll have to use one of the most common techniques of Kung Fu. The Element of Stealth. This time, the targets themselves will be using stealth. 당신 must defend yourself from them 의해 using your instincts. But… You’ll have to do it blind.” She explained. She showed him a blindfold that she had brought with her on the journey. Crane, with a puzzled look on his face, asked, “Why do I have to wear that?” “You have to do it this way because we need to use our ears to sense our targets’ presence, not our eyes. Master Shifu has done this many times, and we must learn it ourselves.” she answered him, “And you’re up first. Good luck.” 암펌, 호랑이 and Monkey watched from behind a bush, as 기중기, 크레인 began his training.
Crane stood in the middle of the ruins as the three targets approached him one at a time, courtesy of a rope being pulled 의해 암펌, 호랑이 and Monkey. 기중기, 크레인 stood silent and at the ready until the first target approached him from his right. 기중기, 크레인 breathed deeply and sensed the forthcoming target as his ears twitched. With a quick swipe of his right wing, the first target immediately went down. Within a minute, the two remaining targets were downed swiftly and without hesitation. After the final target got knocked down, 암펌, 호랑이 and Monkey came out from the bushes and applauded. “Well done, Crane! 당신 did it!” exclaimed Monkey. 암펌, 호랑이 continued, “How do 당신 feel now?” “Thanks 당신 guys.” 기중기, 크레인 said, in relief, “And, actually, I feel rather empowered, if 당신 know what I mean.” 암펌, 호랑이 laughed, and took the blindfold off of Crane’s eyes. “Now… It’s my turn.”
Tigress completed the task in no time all, and the same went for Monkey as well. After the testing was completed, 암펌, 호랑이 and 기중기, 크레인 agreed to a practice battle as they would 옮기기 around the ruins, with Monkey as a witness. “This seems like a different, but better, spot for us to train together isn’t it Crane?!” she asked. “Indeed.” he replied. The two Kung Fu warriors started out with some punches and kicks, and then 기중기, 크레인 flew in the available space, as 암펌, 호랑이 moved quickly along the ledges of the stone structures. Each time the two managed to 십자가, 크로스 paths, a little spar would occur, and, as time passed, 기중기, 크레인 began to 옮기기 quicker and quicker. So much, in fact, that he actually managed to be in line with Tigress, step-by-step. 암펌, 호랑이 was impressed. “You’re definitely improving yourself.” she said while smiling. “I know. And 당신 were right about this place. When 당신 focus on what you, yourself, are doing, then the jungle doesn’t become a distraction to you.” “Right. However…” 암펌, 호랑이 then lunged into the air, kicking him with a 빠른, 스위프트 right-footed kick to the mid-chest, “You still can’t let your opponent distract you.” she said, as 기중기, 크레인 fell onto the ground. After she landed herself, she went over to Crane, and let out her paw. 기중기, 크레인 lifted his left wing, and 암펌, 호랑이 pulled him back up. “I think that should do it for the day. It’s nearly sundown.” she declared to him and Monkey exhaustingly.
That evening, the three gathered around a 불, 화재 that 암펌, 호랑이 started, using the test targets as firewood. “That was some intense training we had today.” remarked Monkey, “So, what’s our plan for tomorrow?” 암펌, 호랑이 smiled. “I hear there’s another landmark not that far from here. It’ll take us about an 시간 또는 two walking to get there from here.” “What is this landmark?” asked Crane. “I don’t know. It’s probably another structure built 의해 the ancient civilization. I only wonder what fascinations this civilization had, and how could they have survived for so long in these hard conditions.” she replied. “Yes. I kind of wonder the same thing.” Monkey continued, yawning. “I think it’s time we rest for the night.” stated Tigress. She put the 불, 화재 out, the three said “Good Night,” and the three went to sleep.
The 다음 day, they set out to the 다음 landmark. As they ventured, 기중기, 크레인 asked, “Do 당신 think anyone else in this jungle right now? I mean I hope that we don’t run into an enemy, and have 더 많이 to worry about.” “I doubt we will.” answered Tigress, “However, we can only assume that there might be, and we’ll just have to handle it in the proper manner when the time comes…”
