Legend of the Dragon
Season 1 Episode 12 - The Last Dragon
It is the Period of Reflection, the one time a year when Guardians spend the entire night meditating in their temples. Ang is dealing with the sacrifice he made when becoming the Golden Dragon - losing the only family he ever knew - Ling. But when Ang’s meditation prompts a vision from the previous Golden Dragon, he learns something that leaves him stunned. The Last Dragon was his father. Ling learns the same thing in a vision of her own - but instead of stunned, she’s furious. As far as she’s concerned, her father simply discarded them. The Zodiac Master channels her anger into his plan to take advantage of the mediating Guardians and steal three power bands, then attack the Dojo for the ultimate prize - the Dragon Power Band. Ang learns that, when he and Ling were only four, his father erased their memories of him for their own protection. He knew that his enemies would use his children against him if they knew the truth. So when Ling leads the attack on the Dojo, Ang tells her of the sacrifice their father had made. Ling is confused, forcing the Zodiac Master to attack with the combined powers of the Snake, Tiger, and Rabbit. Ang is clearly not going to survive this onslaught, but when Ling is contacted a final time by her father, and sees that he indeed loved his children and how the sacrifice broke his heart, she joins her brother in defeating the Zodiac Master. Ultimately, until she can sort through her feelings, she rejoins the Zodiac Master... leaving Ang clinging to the hope that she will one day come back.
