Hello! Had this idea for a VERY long while now. It's kinda weird, but I think it's acceptable in the "make some sense" department, unlike some of my other stuff up here.

All right, now, just letting y'all know, this is sort of on the Jack/Kimiko side, but it's more friendship than romance, so Kimicer-haters should be fine. Jack WILL be out of character throughout this story (but for good reason!). There MIGHT be some tiny itty-bitty tincy-wincy bits of slash/yaoi for I cannot help but write that kind of stuff, but it's enough that slash-haters will be fine, for it will pretty much only be implied. Also, I'm going to try and not put a lot of bad language in here! The cursing will be on a low level and not happen as often as in my others fics! I know! I'm surprised, too!

This takes place after Raimundo is made leader (MAJOR spoiler for American Cartoon Network-watchers).

Rated for possible content and hyper OOCness.

Disclaimer: If I did, I wouldn't be writing this, now would I? It would already be an episode! I'm going to shut up now.

Getting Hit by a Brick Hurts

Chapter 1

She Who Casts the First Brick

"JACK-BOTS, ATTACK!"

In some rundown tower built out of bricks and stones, Jack Spicer and the Xiaolin Warriors were fighting to get to the newly activated Shen Gong Wu once again. They were all running up the spiral staircase on foot, since it was too small a space to fly by heli-bot or dragon. Jack was currently in the lead in their race, but was very closely followed by the good guys, so he resorted to sending his Jack-bots after them once again.

Raimundo, who was leading his fellow monks, knocked the pathetic robots away with ease. He smirked up at Jack. "You really need to work on not being a loser, Jack. You're making this too easy!"

Kimiko shielded herself with her arms from the debris of a robot that had crashed into the wall because of the Dragon of Wind. "Rai! Watch it!"

Raimundo glanced over his shoulder, continuing to run. "Sorry, Kim!"

Omi thought for a second, maintaining his speed, and then asked his tanned friend, "Why are we merely running? Can we not just hurry up and get the Shen Gong Wu? We are clearly faster than Jack Spicer."

"Where's the fun in that, though?" Raimundo countered.

"Even though you were the one made leader - HYAH! - and we have to follow your plans, it still means we should finish the job as quickly as possible!" Clay says, knocking a robot out of the way.

Kimiko agreed and decided to do what she did, since this was taking way too long for her taste. With a WUDAI MARS FIRE!, she shot up and around the spiral staircase they were climbing. This surprised the boys, including Spicer who had looked over his shoulder and screamed, then ducked as the Japanese girl zoomed over his head.

However, the building was very old and most of the brick and stone used in its structure had eroded away over the years, and Kimiko's action caused the building to rumble, then start to collapse. It startled everyone and Kimiko immediately stopped her attack, trying to keep her balance. Everyone else stopped running and tried to keep their own balance.

Dojo used this moment to zip out from underneath Clay's hat and super-size himself, Raimundo, Omi, and Clay boarding him, despite the ugly red bumps that appeared due to the Shen Gong Wu's activation. The floor had collapsed and Dojo flew as fast as he could, Kimiko landing on his back flat on hers, dazed.

Raimundo was the first to go at her. "Geez, Kimiko! There was a reason why we didn't use our elements to go up the tower! It's too old! Didn't you realize that?"

Kimiko regained her focus and sat up, fixing Raimundo with a furious glare. "Well, excuse me if it was taking so freakin' long to get to the Wu, Rai! Besides, you could've told me that!"

"I thought it was self-explanitory!"

"THE SHEN GONG WU!"

Kimiko and Raimundo were snapped from their argument by Omi's voice. They saw him pointing to a shining object that was falling down among the the bricks and stones. They also spotted Jack, heli-bot activated, flying toward it, desperately trying to dodge the falling stuff. Dojo flew toward the Wu and Spicer, twisting and turning in mid-air to avoid being hit. Both the dragon and Evil Boy Genius reached the Wu, but, before anyone could make a grab for it, it fell down further out of their reach, picking up speed the lower it went.

So, Jack and Dojo made a nose dive for it, falling faster and faster. They were nearing the ground, neither of them looking like they were going to back out.

Closer and closer to the earth they went, Dojo began to sweat.

The monks were holding on for dear life, Omi was actually screaming.

Then, giant green dragon made a noise and stopped his downward plummet by going at a straight right angle to the side and zoomed out of the falling rubble's range, leaving Jack on his own. They flew a reasonable distance away and watched the cloud of dust that appeared where the tower once was. Once that cloud dispersed, they went back and saw Jack dancing in the middle of the rubble.

"I DID IT! I did it! I did it!" Jack sang. Then, he saw the Warriors and Dojo and pointed at them, grinning. "YOU LOST! I WON! WHAT A BUNCH OF LOSERS!"

He continued to tease and taunt them, calling them a series of names that were related to "loser".

Kimiko was getting more and more ticked off by the second. So, she bent down, picked up a brick, and chucked it at him!

"Losers! Losers! Losers losers losers! And you know what else? You're all L-O-S-E-- GUH!" The brick hit him right in the middle of his forehead, cracking his goggles for some reason, and causing him to fall backwards.

The Warriors and Dojo gasped, staring at a seriously shocked Kimiko. She hadn't exactly meant to hit Jack... Well, in a way she did. But not so much to kill him!

So, they all ran over to the Boy Genius, who had dropped the Wu, had his mouth hanging open, drooling, and blood trickling down from the spot where the brick had hit him. His eyes had rolled into the back of his head, so you could only see white, practically blending in with his skin.

Clay examined him more thoroughly, lifting one of Jack's arms and letting it fall limply down. "I think he's just unconcious..."

Kimiko could only stare at him.

Omi was also staring at him. "I am most surprised Kimiko was able to throw that brick so hard, considering her lack of upper-body strength..."

Kimiko pushed Omi over roughly and knelt down next to Spicer's unmoving body, thinking, Wow. I knocked him out.

"It's an improvement, if you ask me." Raimundo said, folding his arms. "Let's take the Wu and go."

The Dragon of Fire looked up at Rai. "You mean, we're just gonna leave him here?"

He raised an eyebrow at her. "Well, yeah. I mean, he's our enemy and he can get home on his own. His backpack thing still works-- Oh." He saw that the heli-bot was badly beaten up from so much crap falling on it.

Omi also saw the point of Kimiko's question. "Well, I guess it would be for the best. I mean, he is knocked out cold and actually bleeding." The yellow kid flinched at the sight of the blood. It always made him queesy, even if it was just a little bit.

"So it's decided, then." Clay spoke up, carrying both the unconcious goth and Wu, Jack draped over his left shoulder. "Dojo! Let's mosey on out of here!"

"Right!" Dojo super-sized himself, was boarded, and flew away to the Xiaolin Temple.

Eh, kinda bad in my opinion, but whatever.
