Hello~ This is my first Xiolin Showdown Fanfic so enjoy~
My red cloak flapped in the cool spring wind. I stared emotionless at the teens below me, they were petrified of me. My cold, lifeless salmon pink eyes glared at them, "Leave" I said dully. The rushed down the mountain, falling a few times; I sighed and rubbed my temples. I scared the people off this mountain for reason, to be alone. Was it to much to ask, some peace and quiet on a mountain? "You can come out now Panina, they're gone now" on cue a small baby elephant came from around a large rock nearby. She nudged her head against my hand in concern, I smiled and rubbed her behind her ear. "Don't worry Panina I'm fine, hey how about I sing you a song?" she nodded her head yes.
"Dancing bears painted wings
Things I almost remember
And a song
someone sings
Once upon a December
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory~
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory~
Far away
long ago
glowing dim as an amber
things my heart use to know
Things it urns to remember
And a song someone sings~
Once upon a December~
"What a lovely song" I whipped my head back to see a man in his mid 20's wearing green amour. I stood in rage, "Leave my mountain NOW~" the man merely chuckled. Don't worry my dear, I came here with a proposition for you" I raised an eyebrow at his laid back attitude. Most people who saw me ran in fear, or at least were trembling, but this man seemed unfazed. He had long black hair that came to his lower back, and lizard like yellow eyes which were almost hypnotic. This man was incredibly interesting. "What kind of proposition?" this caused the man to smirk, "You want to be left alone for the rest of your days correct?" I stared at him skeptically. "What's it to you?" "Well let's just say if you scratch my back I'll scratch yours" I glared at him from my seat a few feet up. "How so?" "If you help me find me find the legendary Shen Gon Wu, I'll make sure you can live in solitude for the rest of your life" I rubbed my chin. I had heard of these Shen Gon Wu from a monk who thought I was an evil spirit and came to exorcise me. They are suppose to hold great power, and in the wrong hands could easily cause an apocalypse. But if it could give her her solitude...
"Before I do answer, tell me your name" I said, "Excuse my rudeness, I am Chase Young, and yours" I looked Chase up and down. "Effroi, just Effroi" Chase walked up to me and kissed my hand lightly, "So Effroi do we have a deal" I looked to Panina then back to Chase. "I suppose we do" said man smirked up and me, "wonderful."
When Panina and I made it to Chase's home, we were awes struck. It looked like it was made from crystals and they were greeted by various cat like animals. Tigers, Lions, Panthers you name it. In the center was a large fountain with a staircase on the side, "I'll show you to your room" Chase said pulling me out of my thoughts. I nodded and followed him up the staircase were he showed me a luxurious room. It had a queen size bed and a desk and vanity on either sides of it, the walls were painted dark blue. "What a nice room" I said to him, "I'm glad you like it my dear" I walked in and sat at the foot of the bed. "So Chase, when do we go after these Shen Gon Wu?" I asked casually, he chuckled, "One appeared just know" I scoffed. What a coincident. "Don't worry my dear, it's not one we could fine useful, so we can just observe this time" I nodded at him then turned to Panina. "Stay girl, I don't want you to get hurt while we're out" Panina huffed and flopped down on the floor, "good girl" I mumbled.
I walked out of the room with Chase, "hold onto my arm" he said. I stared at him like he grew two heads but did as he said, within moments we were on a tree looking out to a waterfall. I looked around looking for something interesting until I saw a large dragon land nearby, dropping off 4 teens. I looked to Chase for an introduction and he seemed to understand my look. "Those are the Xiolin Warriors my dear, they are also after the Shen Gon Wu" I nodded in understanding and turned my attention back to them.
"I found it!" the black hair girl called to her friends. "Not so fast!" I looked to the sky and saw a pale teen with red hair in a steam punk outfit fly over to them on a jet pack. I looked to Chase again for information, "That idiot is Jack Spicer" then a ghostly figure came from behind him. I cringed at her ugliness causing Chase to chuckle, "That is Wuya" he said. I didn't want to know anymore about her so I looked on as the Xiolin warriors defeated Jack's "Jack Bots" left and right. "That Jack Spicer is pretty useless" I said to Chase, he nodded "Very." I stared unamused as the black-haired girl, I think her friend called her Kimiko, and Jack dive for the Shen Gon Wu. Suddenly it started glowing, catching my attention, "Jack I challenge you to a Xiolin Showdown" she yelled, "Fine by me" "The game is Sudoku, the first to finish a square wins" I chuckled at the game choice. "I accept your challenge" Suddenly the ground around us started to change revealing two large squares filled with random numbers. "This is interesting" I mumbled, "I thought you might say that" Chase said. I looked with a new found interest as Kimiko and Jack started putting numbers on the squares, not long after it started the Xiolin girl had one.
The terrain suddenly returned to normal and Xiolin warriors were congratulating their friend. Abruptly the small yellow headed boy looked up into the tree Chase and I were in and glared. "Chase Young" he said coldly gaining everyone's attention, I looked to him. "You seem to be popular" I said, "You could say that" he then turned to the boy. "Hello Omi, Xiolin warriors, I was just showing a friend of mine your act" he held out his hand towards me and I stood up. That ghost lady, I already forgot her name, rushed over to us and got in my face, "Chase, who is this child" she exclaimed. I drew my face back, "For a ghost your breath really stinks" I mumbled causing Chase to chuckle, "who I converse with is none of your business, shall we get going Effroi?" I nodded and held on top his arm. We disappeared back to Chase's home were I released him, "So my dear what did you think?" he asked me, sitting himself on his throne. "Looks fun, but those kids are naive, I pulled something out of my strapless red shirt. I took some of the Shen Gon Wu the girl was holding, "I got some Wu from the girl without her realizing" Chase smiled at my load. "well done my dear, you snatched the Shroud of Shadows, the Black Beetle, and the Ants in the Pants" I looked at the strange objects then back to Chase. "I learn fast" I said giving him a coy smirk.
"I'm glad my dear, now come sit with me" I walked over cautiously, I still didn't know a lot about Chase so I was still cautious. As if Chase could read my thoughts he chuckled, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you I would just like to talk" I nodded and plopped myself on his lap. He gave me a look as if he was waiting for an explanation, "You told me to sit with you" I said casually. He shook his head as if he wanted to say something but didn't, "that aside my dear, I wanted to talk about you and I" I shivered in anticipation at his words. The way he said you and I gave me a feeling I couldn't recognize, "What about us?" I asked trying to remain calm. "Well I presume we should get to know each other then discus are plan" I nodded and leaned on the arm rest, "what do you wan to know?" I asked. "Well, why did you live on a mountain?" Chase asked, I sighed "It's a long story"
Thanks for reading, please review~
