Chapter 5: Hannibal's Scheme

As the showdown began, Jermaine was quite uneasy siding with even the likes of the lesser Heylin forces. Jermaine placed his training into action and raced right toward one of the Heylin symbiotes. He raced toward the Earth symbiote and gave it a good punch sending the Earth symbiote falling right off the building.

"The kid's good" said Hannibal as he noticed it, "too bad he's not really on our side of the aisle."

"Perhaps" said Chase as he dodged the attacks that the Mala Mala Jong clones were attempting on him, "but perhaps we can use your skills to divide up our foes like the way you recruited me."

"As much as I hate to agree" said Wuya as she kicked the Water Symbiote that was coming right at her, "I kind of agree with the plan."

"Don't worry" said the Sandman as he knocked down the Fire Symbiote off the building, "Venom, Spidie and I will bid him more time."

"Boy, will you do the honors in pointing me in the right direction?" asked Hannibal to Jack Spicer.

"You mean me?" asked Jack Spicer quite astonished by Hannibal's remarks.

"Yes, he meant you" replied Chase as he was quite busy fighting one of the Mala Mala Jong clones, dodging its Fist of Tebigong, and giving the Mala Mala Jong clone a good kick in the back.

"You'll need my help" said Spiderman to Jack.

"Well, here goes nothing" said Jack as he was given a straw and then placed Hannibal at the tip of the straw, aimed it carefully at one of the Mala Mala Jongs that was giving Venom a hard time and sent Hannibal flying right toward the shoulder of one of the Mala Mala Jongs.

Hannibal landed right on the shoulders of one of the Mala Mala Jongs that was giving Venom a good fight for his life. As Hannibal was prepared to implement his scheme, the four Xiaolin monks overseeing the showdown were suspicious of Hannibal in spite of him being on Jermaine's side.

"What's that no good bean up to?" asked Clay as he was curious what Hannibal's plans were.

"I'm not sure" replied Raimundo, "but I believe after the showdown, we better be on our guard of what comes next."

Meanwhile, Hannibal was ready to give his scheme a good try as he began to play the Mala Mala Jong's "conscious".

"Listen Mala Mala" said Hannibal to the Mala Mala Jong while he was sitting on its shoulder, "why should you and your comrades pay attention to some outsider freaks from space? You should be the ones controlling them instead."

The Mala Mala Jong that Hannibal managed to lecture to stopped fighting Venom and then turned to the other Mala Mala Jongs.

"Look, Hannibal's plan is working" said Jack.

"So it seems" said Chase.

"What are you four doing?" asked the Heylin Symbiote as he noticed how the Mala Mala Jongs were coming toward him, "You're suppose to be on mine team with the remaining other symbiotes I created."

"Looks like it's game over for the likes of you" said Hannibal as he appeared with the four Mala Mala Jongs.

"Oh, you think that?" asked the Heylin Symbiote as he gave an evil grin, "Since I can't have one of these Mala Mala Jongs on my side, I might as well take control of the likes of Chase Young instead!"

The Heylin Symbiote then abandoned the Chameleon Bot it was controlling and began to sliver over to where Chase Young was busy fighting the Wind and Water Symbiotes. Chase was too busy to notice the presence of the Heylin Symbiote who surprised him as the Heylin Symbiote gave Chase a good punch sending him flying nearly off the cliff of the building. Chase managed to recover from the attack and charge at the Heylin Symbiote. He gave the Heylin Symbiote several good punches, and a good kick sending him flying right up in the air. But the Heylin Symbiote landed on its feet and raced toward Chase. The Heylin Symbiote then gave Chase a good punch giving it the chance to take control over Chase's body. Spiderman noticed this all too well and signaled one of the Mala Mala Jongs that held the Star Hanarbi to be used against the Heylin Symbiote. The fireball raced toward the Heylin Symbiote who was trying to take control of Chase, and was unaware of the fireball's presence. The fireball hits the Heylin Symbiote, making it give an eerie scream akin to what happen to Venom.

"The Heylin Symbiote has been weaken, let's hit it with everything we got" said Jermaine to the lesser Heylin forces.

Jermaine along with Wuya, the four Mala Mala Jongs, even Jack Spicer, the Sandman, Venom, Spiderman and Hannibal all implemented their attacks against the three remaining symbiotes. Venom gave the Heylin Symbiote a good punch, along with Wuya, while the four Mala Mala Jongs concentrated on defeating the Wind and Water Symbiotes.

"Wow, look at them go" said Omi who was quite amazed of the scene of Jermaine leading the lesser of the evil Heylin forces along with being involved with Spiderman, Venom and the Sandman, "even though Jermaine is relying on the likes of Hannibal Roy Bean and our traditional enemies, they seem to have the upper hand."

"Hate to agree with you" said Kimiko, "but I think you're right about that."

As the showdown raged on, the two other symbiotes, the Wind and Water Symbiotes were booted off the cliff by Wuya, the Sandman and Venom, while everyone else concentrated on the Heylin Symbiote itself.

"So, you folks think you can beat me?" asked the Heylin Symbiote as he noticed he was very much surrounded.

"You're outmatched, from 10 to 1" added Jermaine.

"So I best that you better give up" said Chase as he recovered from the surprised attack by the Heylin Symbiote, "or I'll make you."

"Oh yea, what if I don't?" asked the Heylin Symbiote to Chase.

"I'll do this then" replied Chase as he grabbed the Heylin Symbiote's neck and threw it right off the cliff, ending the showdown.

As the showdown finished, the Heylin Symbiote and his underlings were defeated. The four Xiaolin monks and Dojo emerged curious to find what sort of Shen Gong Wu that was won from the showdown itself.

"So what sort of Shen Gong Wu is it?" asked Omi as Chase held up what looked like to be some sort of a bottle.

"Oh, I know what this sort of Shen Gong Wu is now" replied Dojo, "it was called the Bottomless Bottle, you could trap any unwanted spirit in it."

"Or perhaps let's say some degrading outsiders like the Heylin Symbiote and his minions" said Chase as he pointed the Bottomless Bottle at the Heylin Symbiote and the four other elemental symbiotes and sucked them right in and closed the lid, "here, I think you four should keep guard over these troublemakers."

"What about the Shen Gong Wu with the Mala Mala Jongs?" asked Raimundo.

"Don't worry; in spite of us being on the Heylin side" replied Hannibal, "I guess we can owe you folks one. You get at least half of the Wu you lost, we get the other half."

"We'll each give each of our sides a head start" said Wuya, "but next time when we meet again, we'll be enemies."

"Sounds good to me" said Clay as he took the Shen Gong Wu that the Xiaolin temple lost after the Mala Mala Jongs were dismembered.

The scene ends as both sides part their own ways, along with Spiderman, Venom and the Sandman as well.
