My Destiny
The Heylin/Xiaolin war lasted for two months and the Xiaolin won gaining all of the shen-gong-wu. The war started immediately after Raimundo Pedrosa became shoku warrior and consisted of over 100 Xiaolin showdowns. The last Xiaolin showdown was a four way tag team battle between the four monks and Jack Spicer, Wuya, Chase Young, and Hannible Roy Bean. Raimundo Pedrosa, Kimiko Tohomiko, Clay Bailey, and Omi won all of the shen-gong-wu.
A week after the war was over Kimiko sat in her 'room'. Now that there were no shen-gong-wu to find or evil to go after she felt worthless like she had no meaning in her life. She picked up her Mp3 player; music always made her feel better, and pressed play. One of her songs, 'My Destiny' by Katharine Mcphee, came on but this time instead of singing she just listened to the lyrics.
I have always dreamed of this
I'll admit that there is
Something I missed
Wondering if it is for real
Every mistake, every wrong turn
Every time I lost my way
Has led me to this
Moment of Bliss tonight
With you
After hearing the first part of the song Raimundo came to mind. She had loved him since the day they met but she knew that he didn't feel the same.
Finally I can break free
With you
So change it in my Destiny
It's so funny now that I see
How different life
Turned out to be
After the chorus Kimiko started thinking about the line 'So change it in my destiny' and what it meant. Perhaps it meant chasing after shen-gong-wu all her life was not her destiny, but what was?
You are always by my side
And your belief in me
Was nothing to hide
I didn't stop, didn't give up
Even if I sometimes lost hope
I did my best
And I am blessed in life
With you
Raimundo drifted back into her thoughts. She realized that she was blessed in life to have him, even if he didn't feel the same way.
Finally I can break free
With you
So change it in my Destiny
It's so funny now that I see
How different life
Turned out to be
This time when she heard 'So change it in my destiny' she knew that she was the only one who could change her destiny. She also knew what she had to do to change it.
Can it get any higher
Tell me
Does it get any stronger
I owe it to you
And I'm living through
I'm never gonna doubt it
Without you
Those last words pushed Kimiko to do it. She threw down her earplugs and ran to find Raimundo.
With you
I can break free
So change it in my destiny
Dream come true
It's so funny now that I see
How different life turned out to be
Yeah
When she did she jumped in his arms…
Oh, oh I love you
And kissed him.
So change it in my destiny
Dream come true
It's so funny now that I see
How different life turned out to be
I've realized that it's my destiny
