Kryptonite

Summary: What if Chase Young never wanted Omi by his side? What if he wanted someone else instead ? And what happens when Chase finds out that he has a son that he almost killed several times ? Chase/Raimundo , Raimundo/Kimiko, Raimundo/OC

Chapter one – The Shoku honor

I'm the Shoku warrior … heh, who would've guessed? Well, I wouldn't … neither does the team … or Dojo … But that's not the point!

Now I'm the leader, the responsible one and as master Fung told me, I should start acting like I'm supposed to. I bet that everyone at the temple was against this decision.

Oh, how much I enjoy laying on the grass before everyone wakes up. It's so quiet and I can finally think clearly. Even if master Fung made me the Shoku warrior instead of Kimiko, or Clay … or even Omi, I betrayed them for so many times that I forgot to count and they always welcomed me back. That's weird even if I'm very grateful for this but I still can't find a logical answer for that.

As I got up and begun to walk to the training field, the wind brought to me a weak sound. It was as if someone was hiding behind a bush or something like that. The sound became clearer and the sound moved closer to me. It was about two or three feet away. I got in my Shoku attack position as I was wondering who on Earth could it be ? Could it be the others playing a trick on me ? Or Spicer trying to steal – for the 1000th time – our Wu's ?

"Show yourself." I demanded preparing to strike as a shadow slowly came into the light .I tried to see who it was before he or she reached me but then, I saw his face.

"Chase Young …" I muttered. What is he doing here ? Is he after Omi again ? Maybe I should attack …

"Dragon of the Wind … You became the Shoku warrior ?" said Chase with an evil smile. Why does he care ? Is not any of his business…

"Relax, I am here to talk. I won't hurt you…yet." How powerful does he think he is, huh ? He can be an immortal and the strongest bastard that ever existed but he's not all that cool.

"What do you want ?" I said letting my guard down. I was controlling the wind with my mind getting prepared for his incredible speed attacks.

"As I said, I am here to talk." he said looking serious. Too damn serious. "I am here to give you a life-time offer: To become the strongest dragon that the Xiaolin temple and the Heylin side ever seen. If you'll join me in my quest, I shall teach you all the techniques that the Xiaolin had forbidden and I tell you, those are the most strongest techniques." Said Chase with an evil grin.

"And what makes you so confident that I'll leave the temple and come running to your side ?" I said thoughtful. Then, Chase's grin grew much wider and he looked very confident.

"You see Raimundo, the evil within you is much more powerful than you think." Said Chase leaving me…. speechless.

"….That's not true…" I said starring at the ground beneath me. No, he can't be possibly right. I am done with the Heylin side for good!
"Yes it is. In fact, it's the biggest amount of pure evil I've ever seen. And I want to be a part of it."

"Go to hell." I said getting in an attack position .This guy thinks he knows everything, he's unbelievable !

"Do you really think that they trust you ?"

"Leave them out of this !" I demanded going for a strike but Chase easily dodged it.

"Raimundo, you have an evil seed down there and they know it. You had betrayed them for so many times that they won't even follow your commands as the leader of the group." Said Chase dodging other five attacks.

"No ! That is not true !" I said clapping my hands together trying to concentrate on the Shoku force within but instead of the whitey-blue aura that should've appear around me, a dark red aura took form around me. I starred in horror at my trembling hands as I heard a billion of screams inside my mind.I clenched my fingers in my hair and sat on my knees facing the fresh cut grass.

"See what I mean ? I can teach you to make a balance between those two forces but you have to come whit me in order to make it stop."

"No …no…leave me alone …" I said getting slowly up. Chase had a frown on his face and disappeared.

The screams from my head became louder and louder and I gained a few steps to the temple but happily for me, Kimiko and the rest of the guys saw me crawling (this was humiliating !) and ran to me. Kimiko got to me first and bowed down to help me get up.

"Rai, are you ok ?" said the Japanese girl gazing with her beautiful blue eyes into my emerald ones.

"Yes…t-thanks for coming." I mumbled. What ? I couldn't tell them about Chase's visit…yet.

"You sure partner ? You don't look good." Said the tall cowboy tapping his hat and looking worried.

"Raimundo, my friend ! You should take it easy, no matter how much you practice you won't ever surpass me !" said Omi with his ego … bigger than his head…

"Omi, stop -…" begun Kimiko but I cut her off by screaming in pain. The pain I felt was the worst pain I ever felt in my entire life and the screams got louder by the second. They screamed in pain, just like I was doing right now. Suddenly, I begun to slip from Kimiko's tight grip and slowly I felt on the grass starring into the space between myself and the sky. Slowly, my vision begun to blur as I fell asleep.

I slowly opened my eyes in the empty medical room. I tried to stand but it didn't work so I got back in bed. Then, the door opened and Kimiko entered alone.

"Rai, are you ok ?" said Kimiko putting her warm hand on my forehead and my cheeks.

"Guess so… what happened ?" I asked involuntarily.

"You tell me. You woke up before us, stood outside until we woke up and we saw you crawling your way to the temple with tears in your eyes. What happened to you, Rai ?" said Kimiko looking concerned. I didn't want to tell her a lie but I have too. If I'll tell her, she will run to master Fung and this can't happen.

"It's … just the things master Fung expects me to be. What if he made the wrong decision ? He should've chose anyone besides me. " I said sad and thinking about the Heylin side.

"You still doubt yourself ?" asked Kimiko with a playful smile on her face."I can't believe it, you saved us so many times, we owe our life to you." Smiled Kimiko.

"I owe you guys everything. You .. picked me up when I betrayed you, and not just once."

"Rai, stop thinking about whether you deserve it or not, I think you do and I need you to think about us rather than the leadership. So, what are we ?" she said with an innocent smile. Oh, how innocent the devil can look. It never stops to amaze me.

"What do you think we are, girl ?" I said with a playful smile.

"Are we together or what ?" she said a bit afraid. I could understand her, if we were together, I had to explain everything about me and Kimiko to master Fung and that's not what I wanted.

"Yeah, yeah we are." I said pulling her closer. "Thanks for helping me all these years to become what I am today." Then, exactly before I fixed a kiss on her cheek, Omi, Clay and Dojo came in.

"Wooow, what are you two doing here, kids ?" said Dojo on a mocking tone.

"We're planning how to steal your pillow, what do you think ?" I said with an evil smirk making Dojo to leave to get master Fung. The cheese-ball made its way to my right side of the bed pushing Kimiko away.

"Raimundo my dear friend, I am mostly happy that you are alive." Said Omi.
"

Rai, you sure you're ok ?" said Clay pushing Omi away. Ok, this has to stop.

"Young monks, please leave to bed. I need to speak alone with the Shoku warrior." Said master Fung as he came in the room. Kimiko looked at me mimicking a 'Good night' and left with the others leaving me alone with master Fung.

"Now, I need you to tell me what happened." Said master Fung.
