Disclaimer: Not bloody mine. I hate disclaimers. I'm have sixty dollars to my name and none of it is because I ripped off someone else's story.
AN: WOOT. Sequel to 'And In Time,' as promised. The new characters are based upon myself and three close friends. I dunno if I'll be so quick with these chapters, as school is starting very soon and I will be attending High School. Oh joyous day. Anyway...
Two
silhouettes stood against the stone wall, surrounded by two-day old
corpses of two females and a male, slaughtered.
The shorter of the
two, a slightly overweight, sturdily built girl flipped over the
carcass of the youngest female with the toe of her combat boot and
sighed, turning to her companion, a tall, scrawny boy who loomed
above her. Running a hand through her sholder-length dyed black hair,
she muttered "Kimiko Tohomiko and Raimundo Pedrosa, the dragons
of Fire and Wind, are dead. You know what that means?"
The
boy just nodded, placing a hand on her shoulder.
"New
Dragons."

ME
---------------------------------------------Xiaolin
Dragons
The two dragons returned to the destroyed temple
immediately, retreating to the only building that still had a roof,
the room that was built for storing Shen-gon-wu.
"You sure it
worked?"
"Yeah, I'm sure. Just wait, you'll see."
The girl looked perhaps a bit too sure of herself as she straightened
her red Xiaolin robes.
Moments passed and nothing had
happened.
The boy grew annoyed. "You should try it again, you
could have messed it up, or someone could be playing a
trick..."
"Shhh! Look!" She said in a harsh
whisper, pointing a finger towards the center of the room where a a
thick, yellowish mist began to appear. Eventually, it had the face of
a very attractive young female, upon it an expression of utmost
confusion.
"Uh. That's not Master Fung!"
"...No,
it's not ... who the hell is it?"
By this time, the entity
had a full figure. It began to speak, "Are you the kids who
thought I was Fung?"
"Uh..." The girl ran a hand
through her hair, searching for answers. "Yeah, I guess we are.
Who are you?"
"First, who are you?"
"My
name..."She started dramatically, "Is Kali Rose Blackthorn,
Dragon of Water. And uh.." She nudged her companion. "This
is Archael. He doesn't have a last name. And he's the dragon of
uh..."
"Earth." Archael said, with a smile and nod.
"Now stop being such a drama queen, will you?"
Kali
sighed and backed away. "So ... um. Who did you say you
were?"
"I didn't." The ghost let out a short
giggle, watching them.
"Do you even know what Shen-gon-wu
are?" Archael asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Sounds
familiar ... wait. Dashi made them, right? And then hid them with
that awesome little dragon of his! Yeah!"
"Excellent."
Kali smiled gently, nodding before glancing at Archael. "We
gotta let people know about the openings. Kimiko's crap is still
here, I'll post something..." She turned to leave, but standing
in the doorway were two girls, smiling strangely at her.
"Or
not. Um, hi." Kali stared at the two questioningly. "You
the new Dragons?"
"Yep." Said one of the girls, who
had short dyed-blue hair. "I'm Tara Moody. Dragon of Wind, I
guess."
The girl beside her, dressed very strangely in shorts
and striped knee-high socks made a soft popping noise. "I'm Aden
Starbird. I think I'm the Dragon of Fire... Yeah."
"Um
... who sent you?"
"Some freak with red hair. He was
really, really hyper." Tara said, smirking.
"...Jack
Spicer. He's onto us." Archael said, sighing.
"Or
maybe..." Kali stared out the window at the night sky, chewing
her bottom lip. "Maybe he's on our
side?"
-----------------------------Jack&Chase
Jack
leaned against the stone wall as he watched his new teammate pace the
floor, smirking. "The dragons are all gone. The Shen-gon-wu is
ours... You know what this means, Jack?" Chase stopped in front
of the boy, looking him over with half-lidded eyes.
"Um... "
He coughed, suddenly nervous.
Chase took Jack around the waist,
pulling him to his body. "We rule the world at last."
"Uh
... yeah!" Jack nodded quickly, trying his best not to look
Chase in the eye. However, he noticed this and backhanded Jack across
the face, making him stumble back, hitting the stone wall behind him.
"What the hell was that for!"
"You are to do as I
say!" He replied, suddenly infuriated. "I rescued you for a
reason, Spicer. You're mine now." He gazed down at the younger,
who was quivering, blood dripping from his nose. "Any objections
and you'll hurt even worse, guaranteed." Chase turned on his
heel, heading out of the room.
Jack watched him go with wide eyes,
standing slowly, wondering if it was too late to turn back...
