In the heart of China, a  warrior named Chun harbored a secret: he was the chosen vessel of the Phoenix, a mystical entity wielding the power of immortality, destruction, and fire. For centuries, the Phoenix's power had been hunted by ruthless dark forces, who sought to exploit its limitless potential for domination. The previous Phoenix Warriors had fallen in battle, but their legacy lived on through Chun and he wishes to stop the dark forces once and for all.

"Dad,after lunch we must visit a restaurant,park or any chinese resort to have fun." 3 year old Cheng says while holding his fork close to his mouth.

"Or we might visit a Chinese Opera." Chun,Cheng's Dad answers.

"Boring! I hate Chinese Operas."

"Just teasing you Cheng,or I could teach you one of our family traditions,our future warrior."

"I don't understand,I'm not a warrior."

The family hears a knock on the door and Cheng's Mother goes to get it. The door opens and Timeboy is seen ready for war.

"What's the problem Timeboy?"

"He's attacked and so we must go." Timeboy responds.

"Then let's get going."

Chun's Wife,Jing(Cheng's mum) hugs him and he departs. Chun transforms into his Phoenix armour which is orange-red in colour with Phoenix carvings on it. Phoenix(Chun) rides on his fiery horse and Timeboy flies on his clock like hoverboard to the scene of the war.
       
      The war had already started when they arrived. Steel clashing with steel in a shower of sparks, battle cries,the air was thick with the scent of blood,the Earth was damped with blood,explosions blooming as a violent symphony of light,fire and force.

"Welcome our main guest,are you ready to surrender your Phoenix ring to me?!" Roc,the head of dark birds asks with a terrifying and monstrous voice.

"Never,today you,the dark birds and the dark beasts will die!" Phoenix responds bravely.

The battle begins.
Phoenix stands ready, fire in his eyes and purpose in his heart. Today, the dark forces would fall.
With a sharp gesture, he signals Garuda.
In a flash of motion and wind, Garuda soars in, blade flashing. His sword carvs through the air, striking down a cluster of shrieking Stymphalian birds in a storm of feathers and steel.
The fight raged on.
Phoenix stands firm amid the chaos, his gaze locked onto the incoming swarm. He raises his hand, and in a burst of blazing energy, summoned his Phoenix Staff.
With a mighty cry, he roars, "Phoenix Fire Balls!"
Instantly, fiery portals ignites in the air around him, spinning with heat and fury. Flaming spheres shot from the portals, orbiting him like blazing planets. He clenched his fist, then unleashes the command:
"Fiery balls, go!"
One by one, the fireballs launches outward, striking the dark birds with explosive bursts. Each hit lit the sky with miniature firestorms, sending screeches into the air and weakening the monstrous flock.
As the tide turned, Timeboy steps forward and opens a shimmering portal to the Dark Realms. Without hesitation, Blue Eagle summons a powerful gust of wind, sweeping the stunned enemies into the portal's swirling vortex.
The team followed swiftly—and the portal sealed behind them with a thunderous snap.

"Time for us to come in." Tigerman,a member of the dark beast who was spying on them says,with a menacing grin on his face and then disappears to the Dark Realms.

    The portal opens on the top of a plateau with the dark birds forcefully rolling out of the portal with the mystic warriors following.

"Today is your end Roc!" Phoenix bravely shouts.

"Darkness shall triumph,is time for the real show,dark birds,Onwards!!!"
      
    The battle raged on,now,more intense. The dark birds charged towards the mystic warriors,letting out a battle cry. The mystic warriors,ready than ever before,charges towards the incoming army. Metal kisses metal with deadly precision. The air is thick with blood. The Earth shakes under their feet in fear. Roc stands firm in the raging hot battle and raises his Roc staff. Suddenly,a dark purple light erupts on his staff,crackling with an otherworldly energy. With a loud battle cry,he says,"mó fang néng li!" (Meaning:Copycat powers.) A ball of dark purple fire shoots out of the staff,hitting Gorzillah. Gorzillah lets out a faint whimper and turns to find who shot him.

"Who shot that lazer!" Gorzillah said as he angrily looked back and saw Roc transform into a duplicate of Gorzillah with a duplicated hammer.

"Please tell me you didn't copy my powers,Roc?" He asks.

"Yes I did." Roc responds and hits Gorzillah with the hammer.

     Roc successfully copies
the powers of 9 out of 12 mystic warriors. It remained Phoenix,Earth lady and Frosty with their powers uncopied.

"Giftlady,we need something to help us right now!" Phoenix says to Giftlady.

Giftlady nodds and uses her powers to summone a mystic gift to help them. A gift appears and it was a time bomb.

"What do we do with a time bomb?" Phoenix asks.

Giftlady looks around and says,"Kick it to the centre of this plateau."

   Phoenix hesitates, glancing around the battlefield.
Garuda shouts, "Kick it now! All the warriors are down!"

Without wasting another second, Phoenix kicks the device toward the center. It explodes on impact. The plateau quakes and shatters violently. Warriors are thrown to the ground, injured, as flames erupt across the battlefield.

Chunks of stone—remnants of the broken plateau—crash down, striking both warriors and Dark Birds. Screams mix with the roar of fire as chaos unfolds.

When the dust and smoke finally settle, Phoenix coughs and slowly opens his eyes. Flames flicker around him. Shattered rocks are everywhere. The ground is scorched.

Suddenly, a dark-purple portal rips open in the air. From its swirling depths, dark beasts emerge.

Dark Lion steps forward, his eyes glowing. He roars, unleashing the Lion Spirit, which surges like a shadowy wave—and possesses nine of the mystic warriors.

"Look who's here Phoenix,you're dead meat today." Dark Lion says.

Roc notices Dark Lion's presence and stands up,giving Dark Lion a punch in his face.

"You've come again to disrupt my plan,you weak vessel." Roc shouts at Dark Lion. The dark birds and the dark beasts are mortal enemies because of their fight for ruling the Dark Realms.

"I didn't come to disrupt it,I came to enhance it,but to my own gain."

"Don't you dare touch the Phoenix ring,its mine!" Roc warns.

"Try to stop me." Dark Lion responds.

Dark Lion roared, summoning his hypnotized mystic warriors and turning them against Phoenix. The battle blazed hotter.

As Phoenix fought, Shé, the dark serpent, slithered through the chaos and released a burst of fire from his mouth, striking Frosty and Earth Lady. Flames scorched their skin, leaving them weak and collapsing, forcing Phoenix to face the enemies alone.

Suddenly, Garuda landed in front of him, sword drawn and eyes cold.

Phoenix raised his blade just in time, blocking Garuda’s fierce strike. Sparks flew as their swords clashed.

“I know this isn’t you,” Phoenix said, locking eyes with Garuda’s glowing green gaze. “You’re hypnotized by Dark Lion. Don’t let darkness triumph over light.”

Garuda’s eyes flickered, but his tone was firm.

“I’m not killing you—you’re immortal. But darkness will win.”

With a swift motion, Garuda slashed Phoenix’s right hand, leaving a deep, bleeding cut. Then, Timeboy appeared and froze time around Phoenix, locking him motionless on the battlefield.

Meanwhile, Dark Lion and Roc continued their duel. In frustration, Dark Lion summoned Tigerman.

“Go! Get the Phoenix ring—now!”

Tigerman sprinted toward Phoenix, but before he could reach him, Roc launched a dark energy ball, knocking Tigerman back. Roc vanished—then reappeared before Phoenix and copied his powers with a flick of his hand.

Dark Lion charged at him, enraged.

“You dare steal my plan? That ring was mine! You know copycat powers belong to us!”

“Stop barking,” Roc snapped. “I’m just smarter than you. I used your plan—better.”

Roc’s form shimmered, transforming into a blazing Phoenix.

He fired a Phoenix Arrow, blasting Dark Lion into the air with a fiery explosion. Dark Lion hit the ground, bruised and staggering.

“The end of the Dark Beasts has arrived,” Roc declared, flaring into full Phoenix form. Flames spiraled around him, wild and untamed, weakening all the remaining dark beasts.

The Lion Spirit’s strength faltered, leaving the hypnotized warriors unconscious and freed.
Time unfroze. Phoenix stood, joined by the battered but alive Frosty and Earth Lady.

“Where is Shé?” Frosty growled. “I’m gonna bury him alive.”

“What just happened?” Earth Lady asked, dazed.

“Roc... copied my powers,” Phoenix replied, staring at Roc in the distance, fear creeping into his eyes.

Frosty looked around at the fallen warriors.

“It’s just the three of us now. How are we supposed to defeat him? He has your powers, Phoenix.”

“I’ve got a plan,” Phoenix said calmly. “I’ll make him believe he hasn’t truly won. I’ll tempt him to take my powers, then trick him. When he fires the Iron Arrow at me, I’ll dodge it—and throw it back.”

“Throw it back? That’s impossible for a Phoenix Warrior!” Earth Lady objected.

“Just pray it isn’t,” Phoenix said with quiet resolve.

Roc approached, a triumphant smile on his face. Phoenix stepped forward.

“You haven’t won the war,” Phoenix shouted. “Not while I’m still standing. If you want true victory, take my powers!”

Roc paused, thinking—then smiled.

>“Then let me have it,” he said, extending his hand.

“Uh-uh,” Phoenix smirked. “You’ll have to come and take it.”

“Oh, you asked for it.”

Roc transformed into his Phoenix form and launched wild, spiraling flames toward Phoenix. But Phoenix dodged every burst, gliding through the chaos. Furious, Roc summoned the Iron Arrow—a glowing, cursed weapon.

He hurled it with deadly force.

Phoenix ducked—just in time. The arrow hissed overhead. He grabbed it mid-air, his hands trembling under its weight and power.

With a shout, Phoenix threw it back at Roc.

At that moment, Earth Lady summoned vines from the earth, binding Roc’s arms, while Frosty froze his legs solid.

The Iron Arrow pierced Roc’s chest. Blood burst from the wound as he crashed to the ground, broken and defeated.

"Now what?" Earth lady asks.

"You guys have to go,open a portal with Timeboy's powers and go." Phoenix says.

"Why?" Earth lady asks.

"Because I want to perform the Phoenix massive explosions which will kill all of us,including me because I'm weak."

"No! We die together." Earth lady says and Frosty nods his head in agreement.

"Okay." Phoenix answers.

Phoenix summons his staff and then shouts,"Phoenix explosion portals,Charge me up!!!"

A gigantic, fiery portal tore open above the skies, stretching wide across the heavens. From its burning core, bolts of fiery thunder struck down with violent force, slamming into Phoenix and charging his body with immense power.

Roc, lying weak on the ground, opened his eyes in disbelief as he watched Phoenix absorb the flames and thunder. Crackling energy danced wildly around him like a living storm. His wounds vanished. His eyes glowed with blinding light.

The portal slowly closed, leaving Phoenix floating, fully charged — engulfed in fiery thunder.

With a voice that echoed across realms, Phoenix roared:

“Phoenix Apocalypse Explosion!!!”

A colossal wave of energy erupted from his body — an explosion more powerful than a million bombs. It tore through the entire Dark Realm, ripping apart mountains, shadows, and every last creature of darkness. The dark energy shield that had long separated the Dark Realm from the physical world shattered instantly.

The blast was so immense, the sound echoed into the Physical Realm — even in faraway China, people looked to the skies in fear and confusion as the heavens rumbled.

The Dark Realm was no more. Only ashes and scorched stone remained.

As the light faded, fiery thunder still crackled around Phoenix’s body. Then, slowly, he collapsed — drained, lifeless — his body falling like a comet to the scorched ground.

Phoenix was dead.

The Guardian of the Mystic Powers appeared,with a bright red light announcing his arrival, appearing over the smoking ruins. His gaze swept across the battlefield of charred remains and shattered spirits.

From the ashes, the souls of the fallen began to rise, glowing faintly. They gathered silently before the Guardian — all except Garuda’s.

The Guardian looked on, solemn and still, as the cost of Phoenix’s sacrifice settled over the remnants of the realm.

"Tell the people of China the good news,the Dark Forces are finally destroyed." Phoenix's Spirit says.

"Nǐ shì yī gè zhēn zhèng de yǒng shì,you are a true brave warrior,to be able to destroy the Dark Forces,blessed are you,rest in peace in the Phoenix Realms." The Guardian says. The spirits then disappears and The Guardian collects the mystic objects. The only ones found was the one of Phoenix,Earth lady and Frosty. The rest of the mystic objects must have been lost during the explosion. The Guardian couldn't even see Garuda's body,well,The Guardian disappears. In China,the confused citizens comes out of their different houses and then the clouds forms a fiery face,which is The Guardian.

"People of China,rejoice,for the dark forces have been destroyed by Phoenix and his team but they sacrificed themselves for this to happen,but still,rejoice for you are now safe."

The clouds then scatters and the face vanishes from the sky. The Guardian visits Jing in their house and he enters.

"Where's he?" Jing asks holding the Guardian's shirt at his chest.

"He's dead." The Guardian replies.

She sits on the couch heart broken and then tears rolls down her cheeks,then she begins to cry as Cheng comes and asks her,"Where's dad? Why are you crying?"

"Your dad died in a fatal accident, my dear."

"No! Never! Dad!" Cheng said as he throws himself down to the floor crying heavily with his shirt soaked with tears.

     After about thirty minutes,the Guardian comes and sits beside sad Cheng.

"Sorry for the loss,it is his destiny to die now."

"Why now? Why when I'm still young,I'm still three years old,Why now?" Cheng cries.

"Well,your dad told me to give you this." The Guardian says stretching his hand towards Cheng with a ring that has a orange diamond shaped like a Phoenix bird in his hand.

"He gave me?"

"Yes,he said you should wear it every single day without removing it."

"What if I want to take my bath?"

"Yeah,you could remove it." 

Cheng wore it on his finger and admires its fascinating look in the mirror. The family mourned Chun for one full month, it was a tragic time for them.
