I'm sick of always being the loser!
Jack Spicer's last few words after being defeated, again, on the Xiaolin showdown.
The teenager in all black rides away, miserably from the warriors with his robo-jet. Omni felt that it was not the same Jack Spicer they used to defeat. He tried to shout to Jack, persuading him to totally turn to the good side, but Jack didn't turn back. Omni was again in despair.
"Cheer up Omni, Jack will always between the good and evil" ,said Kimiko.
"Yeah, and ya' saw him turning to the good side, and it wasn't pretty", Clay added.
Raimundo's pats Omni's round head,"Don't worry little fella'. At least we got a new shen gong wu!" holding a shen gong wu, Mayas Wing, showing in front of Omni to cheer him up.
Omni just nodded. And Dojo turned to a humungous dragon again, flying them back to the temple.

Jack just came back home, he heard his mom's footsteps and ran to her,
"Mom---can we please go back home", pleading with kneeling and making exaggerated facial expressions.
"But we are home." She replied while cleaning the living room.
"No! I want to go back to where we used to live, back in the US!"
"But did you forgot? We sold our house there almost four years ago. There's nothing to go back there. And besides, your father's job is here in China. It's better if we stay here." His mother explained.
"But dad's never home even if we are in China?!" Jack
"---Stop being a baby and do as I told!!!" his mom shouted back.
Jack shudder and just went upstairs knowing that he can't argue with his mom.
Back on his room, lying on his bed.
He haven't had much time in his own room, busy doing all his evil plots in the basement. But now, he's tired of doing it. He's tired of planning all the things to get the shen gong wu only to find that in the end, he always gets beaten horribly.
"Wanna quit?", he asked him. Then he fell into laughter, then into tears.
"---I'm no good at anything."
He fell silent and wiped his tears, then continued to stare blankly on the ceiling, then unconsciously fells asleep.

He dreams of his past---
No one really accepted the very pale kid with red eyes in school. The other mean kids throws food on him, while the others just stared malignantly on him. And when at home, he just locks himself on his room, studying or playing the computer. Most of his relatives doesn't accept him either, he thinks that only his mother loves him---because he's the only child.
"Why does everyone hate me?"
"No, not really hate. Just disgusted." Ashley replied. The only cousin that goes near Jack.
"But why?"
"'Cause your weird."
"Am I really that weird?"
"Yup!"
"Then what makes me weird? Is it just my appearance?"
"That would be the first. Second is---hmm… I don't know. You're just so weird!"
"Then why am I weird?"
"I dunno. Maybe your dad got into something weird in one of his trips to make you like that---heck! I don't know. Ask your mom!"
Jack was silent for a minute, then again asked, "Then if I'm so weird, why are you talking to me?"
"Because I like to make fun of you!" giving an evil grin.
"Then all of what you just said before are just jokes, right?"
"No. I was serious back there."
Jack stood silent again. Then Ashley's mother called telling her that it's time to go home. Ashley didn't say goodbye and just left jack alone.
Jack was back again, to this cold and lonely room.

He woke up in his bed finding himself in dark room,
"No, I wont be scared of the dark anymore."
He opens his window to find that it's already nighttime. He continues to look at the sky filled with stars. The moon shone to him, making his skin look paler, and his mind all made up.
"Yeah, I should just quit."
