Elseworlds Immortal Iron Fist 1.5

Volume 1 Issue 5 - the Thunderer

 

Dani could see why K'un Lun was named the mystical city. The streets which she say from the top of the valley were as alive as she thought, they reminded her of the streets of her home city. Markets filled the squares, stalls popped out from every building in the narrow streets, Dani could barely see the sky. The streets cobbled making it feel like she was in Italy. Dani had only been to Italy once, and apart from the oriental style buildings this place reminded her of it. This place felt very welcoming already. Dani followed behind the guard who wouldn't stop telling her that one day he dreamed he would become one of Lei Kung's students and master the chi Kung fu he teaches. He also kept trying to calm Dani down, telling her "Lei will explain all I promise." As they worked there way further and further into the dense maze of streets, Dani realised they were heading in the direction of the large red tower that rose so high it looked like it went above the clouds. They walked up to some locked gates which entered the square in front of the tower. The guard escorting Dani went up to a guard at the gates and started speaking to him in a different language. Dani tried to listen in but it was useless. The other guard then walked over to the gate and unlocked it allowing Dani to pass. As she was about to walk through the gate she turned to the escort, "thanks for all your help. Hopefully we get to meet again." He smiled. "Sure. If you ever get a free moment I'll be at the entrance. If I'm not there just ask one of the other guards for me. The name is Shang. Shang Chi." I said thank you one more time and watched him disappear into the crowd of people. I turned around and entered the square in front of me.

 

 

The new guard welcomed me into this place and said I should go over to the bridge and wait for Lei there. He then went back to his post and locked the gates again. Dani began walking towards the bridge in the centre of the square. It was beautiful. In the centre of the square was a pool of water with golden fish swimming up and down. There were two buildings at either side of the water, a bright sky blue building and a green building, both glowed in the sunlight. As Dani approached the bridge she saw how well decorated it was. Small stone dragons guarded each end and red handrails almost danced of the bridge. She walked up and onto this wooden bridge and stopped in the middle to look down at the golden fish. She smiled as one came up to the surface and started staring at her. Dani was so content and relaxed, she almost forgot about how stressful her last couple of weeks have been. That was until a booming voice echoes around the square like thunder. "Are you Danielle?" Dani almost jumped out of her skin. "Ummm yes sir?" She whimpered. "And you think you are worthy of this prophecy, haha" his booming laugh shook the bridge Dani was stood on "you are a merely a little girl. How do you plan on getting the iron fist power huh?" Dani stepped back as this huge six foot giant stepped onto the bridge. He was massive, his grey hair slicked back over his head. He had a grey, metallic mask which covered his face making him look even scarier. He also wore a similar costume to Shang. "Umm well Mr...I mean Dr. Stephen Strange sent me. He said Lei Kung owed him a favour, and that he wished for his favour to be to train me up." Even though he wore a mask Dani could still tell he was smiling as if this were some joke. "Why would Stephen waste his favour on you. Haha. Well if that's what he wishes for then so be it. Come with me girl, we have much to discuss." He wraps his arm around my shoulder and drags me in through the doors of the large red tower. Once again Dani's body was consumed into darkness.
