Well, I've been trying to get this one up on here for years since I started writing this, but after a while, I looked it over and saw that it needed a better beginning than starting off right the bat, and this is it, just adding a hint of suspense before getting into it. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: Do not own XS. If I did, we would probably be watching the fifth or sixth season right about now, give or take.
Xiaolin Showdown
Xiaolin Showdown: Reborn
Ch. 1-Prologue-A Dark and Sinister Mission
Inside closed doors of a stain-glassed throne room, two people were gathered, a young man and a young woman. The young man was pacing in front of the young woman, who was knelt as she listened to her master give her the details of the mission that she was about to embark on.
"Now that the monks have a Shoku Warrior as their leader, it means that they will only get stronger as the more that they will train. You must join along with them and discover their underlying personal weaknesses, their key to what distracts them the most if they were to battle against someone. Finding this crucial piece of information will in turn be able to drive the dragons apart and weaken them, slowing their progress long enough to manipulate them, a little at a time, long enough when they finally reach their breaking point, they'll be more than willing to join the Heylin once and for all and see no reason for turning back. Do you understand?"
"Crystal, master,"
the young warrioress answered, her voice firm and strong.
"Remember, the entirety and success of this mission solely rests with you being able to goad the monks ling enough until it's time to show your true colors,"
the master implied, making his point.
"No matter what, total concentration is needed to make your disguise hold strong and work to completion."
"Have no worry,"
she reassured.
"I have practiced long and hard, and will have no problem in my deception of the Xiaolin Warriors."
"Excellent,"
he praised evilly.
"Now be on your way. A crow will arrive soon for you to report on your progress."
The young woman dipped her head almost to the ground, then rose and left on her mission. They young man watched her leave, then sat in his throne, with a couple of his jungle cats coming from behind and surrounding him, growing low in agreement of the plans to come.
So, yeah, short, I get it. That's what a prologue is. A short segment that leads into the real beginning of the story. Promise that the next chapter will be a bit longer, of course it is in a re-rewrite. R&R plz!
