The Temple Next Door

Honoo: Yeah, I rock. And I know it...

Mark: How so?

Honoo: I just do. -flips onto a coffee table- And this little thing'll have a different POV every chapter my little Green Raven!

Mark: -whispers-I think she went crazy last night. She sang Old Mcdonald had a farm and We are the champions 17 times...

Honoo: I heard that! And say the diclaimer!

Mark: Sorry. She doesn't own Xiaolin Showdown. But Christy Hui does! Ask her for a season four!

(Mark's POV)

"Damnit!" my shout echoed through the empty house. I was playing the new game for the Nintendo Wii ((Honoo: Lucky dog!)) while my parents and sister were gone. Personally, I was glad they were gone. 'Cept something nagged at the back of my headache, that something good and bad was gonna happen soon. And as that thought passed through my head, it happened. I heard a crash in the back yard. I paused the game, and went out the back door.

Outside, I thought was a gecko, a girl with flaming red hair, purple shirt, black skirt, and electric blue boots, a guy with a white hoodie with short sleeves, brown hair, green cargos, and red shoes, and another guy, with a cowboy attire, were in the middle of my lawn. Also, there was a little yellow bald kid in his bathrobe on. "Ok... This is awkward... Who are you guys?" I asked them. The girl whispered to the guy with the brown hair. He nodded and she walked up to me. "Hi, I'm Kimiko Tohomiko. Them over there," she pointed at them as she said their names," is Raimundo Pedrosa, Clay Bailey, Dojo, and Omi." she turned back towards me and whispered, "Omi is an orphan so don't ask him about where he came from and stuff like that." I nodded slowly.

"Mark." I said

"Huh?"

"Mark is my name. Mark Carlson."

"Oh, well, hi! Uh, Rai's gonna tell you the other part..." she ran back to the groupee and pushed Raimundo towards me. She whispered to him again. He walked to me and put out his hand. When I heard his accent, I could tell he was Brazillian,"Hi, uh, Mark," he said. I shook his hand and Raimundo pushed me to the group. "I'll tell you on the way." he said. "Uh, way to where? And how?" The gecko went in front of me. "Me, duh." he said. I cocked my head."A gecko?" I asked.

The "gecko" grew about 30-40 feet long. "I AM NOT A GECKO!" He bellowed. "Holy SHITAKE MUSHROOMS!" I shouted,"When can a gecko grow to be that long, that fast?!" I asked. The large gecko smacked his forehead and frowned. "He's a dragon, dude." said Raimundo.

"Oh... Sorry, Dojo." I said and scratched the back of my head. He nodded for all of us to get on. "Okay, so whaa--" Holy Crap, the dragon was flying and this is was not helping my feast of ice cream this morning. "You'll get used ta it." said Clay. Omi laughed, "I remember the first time Raimundo got on. He threw up and Dojo got angry at him. Again!" Omi laughed so hard he fell off. Luckily, Clay lassoed him and he got back on. I sighed. This was going to be confusing. Raimundo started to explain to me that I was a Xiaolin Dragon, a person who can control a certain element. To me it was obvious Clay was Earth. Raimundo also explained that I was the Dragon of the Light.

"Ok, that's got to be most sissiest element ever." I said. "No, it isn't!" said Kimko in all to innocent voice. I raised an eyebrow. She looked away and whistled as if nothing happened. I sighed again. "Ok, so, am I the only other one? Or is there more?" I asked Raimundo. "There is three more people. The next one is..." he looked at a scroll of some sort, "... in Canada." I nodded and leaned back on the end of Dojo's tail. I, apperently, fell asleep, 'cause when I woke up I was falling off. "Clay!" I yelled. Just like Omi he lassoed me back on Dojo. "Ok, how many times have you done that?" I asked him. "I reckon to many times ta count." he replied. I shrugged.

We finally got there and I sighed in relief. I got off Dojo and landed in the... snow. Yes, it was snowing. Yes! We never get snow in Florida! I ran around in circles and the monks stared at me questionably. "Oh... uh... sorry. We never get snow in Florida so... yeah." I blushed. They laughed. We continued walking through the snowing town until we came along a small house. Omi knocked on the door and a tall woman answered the door. "Hello? Are you looking for Amy? I'm so, so sorry for whatever she did to your houses!" said the women. "No, no. We're friends of... Amy, and we just wanted to talk to her for a sec." said Raimundo. The woman sighed in relief. Whatever she does to peoples houses must be harsh. She let us into her living room where there was a girl with a black sweater and orange-ruby colored hair. She also had black sweatpants, black makeup, and black slippers. She seemed to really like black.

"Um, Amy? Your friends want to talk to you. We'll continue the lesson after they are finished." said the woman. She walked out of the room. "Hi, Amy. We need you to come with us. You--" started Kimiko. The girl called Amy raised her hand, stood up and walked out the door. "Mom! I'm going to camp!" she yelled. "Ok sweetie, but you should pack up!" The girl slumped down and walked back in the house through a door, came out with a back-pack and went back outside. "Are we going or what?" she asked.

When we were back on Dojo, Amy was already told she was the Dragon of Darkness, and what the Xiaolin Dragons were. This was going to be a while wasn't it?
