Ambush

## Premise

Kung Fu Master Oogway is on a secret mission to forge a treaty with the King of the strategic reserve of Toydaria when his ship is ambushed by Master Bear. Oogway and three Clone troopers must face off against Master Bear's dreaded Su Wu and her massive Empire army to prove the Kung fu masters are strong enough to protect the king and his people from the forces of the war.

## Synopsis

Kung Fu Master Oogway is dispatched to the dried coral reserve of Rugosa to convince King Katuunko to allow the kung fu warriors to build a base in Toydarian territory. As the Toydarian monarch King Katuunko and his retinue await the arrival of their kung fu-master envoy, Su Wu arrives and presents Katuunko with a hologram of Master Bear, who attempts to express the Kung fu masters's supposed incapability to protect Toydaria in hopes of swaying the king to his cause. In orbit of the Rugosa reserve, two Banking clan frigates ambush Oogway's ship, forcing him to take an escape pod while his ship escapes the area. Three clones—Lieutenant Thire, Jek, and Rys—accompany him in to the reserve.

The kung fu frigate leaves the area, a move that Su Wu spins to the king as a sign of weakness. Her attempts at persuasion are interrupted however by a holographic call from Oogway, in which the kung fu Master offers his greetings. Su Wu then suggests a deal: if Oogway can escape her best troops, then Toydaria will be free to join the Kung fu warriors. But if he should fail and the Empire prevail, Toydaria will join the Empire and the Arkeyans.

Agreeing to Su Wu' proposal, Oogway and his troops march through the coral forest as a Arkeyans landing ship carrying a full battalion of arkeyansdroids arrives. Oogway and his men then face off against a large number of Arkeyan Defenders and several tanks. The tanks find it difficult to penetrate the dense coral forest, forcing the Wolf commander 224 to send his troops out on foot, which allows the clones to ambush them in small groups. Eventually, Thire is wounded, and the group is forced to retreat.

Oogway and the clones make their way to a dried gulch lined with caves, to rest and recover. Inside a cave, the clones are less than enthusiastic about their current situation, as they find themselves outnumbered and outgunned. To raise spirits, Oogway gives his troopers a small lesson about them being individuals despite their origin as clones, and that it is their mind which makes them strong, not their numbers or weapons.

As the Arkeyan column approaches, Master Oogway decides to face them alone, ordering his clone troopers to stay out of sight until their help is truly needed. The Arkeyans report the current situation to Su Wu, who in turn orders them to open fire. Oogway ends up cutting the whole battalion to pieces, and angered, Su Wu sends out ten Arkeyan Slamshocks to deal with the Kung Fu Master. Just before the Arkeyan Slamshocks can finish the Kung Fu master, Thire launches their last rocket at an overhanging bluff, sending an avalanche of rock crashing down on the Arkeyan reinforcements.

Katuunko is impressed by the display, and opts to have Toydaria join the Kung Fu warriors. Furious about the outcome, Bear orders Su Wu to kill the king. Su Wu knocks the king's Elephant seals Guards unconscious and prepares to deal the killing blow, but Master Oogway arrives just in time, stopping Su Wu mid-swing. Rather than surrender, Su Wu quickly triggers an avalanche with pre-planted explosive charges, using it as a distraction to escape in her solar sailer. King Katuunko gladly accepts Oogway's offer to join the Kung Fu warriors, and kung fu gunships come to retrieve the group.
