I do not own Xiaolin Showdown, I wish I did, but I don't! I do, however, own Mystic & Griffon, well, I created them at least. Feel free to say whatever in a review!!!

I Remember It Now
Mystic, Griffon, & Omi sat in the garden, helping Master Fung tend to his plants. The other dragons had left to search for a new shen gon wu.
"How could they just leave me here?" Omi asked, infuriated.
"Momentai(1), Omi, we looked all over for you!" Mystic stated. "We just didn't think to look in there."
"How could you not think to look in the BATHROOM?" Omi yelled at the two girls.
"Like we would go in the men's room. Hello, we're girls." Griffon said, though she dared not raise her voice as she watched Master Fung walk up behind the bald, young monk.
Well, then," the young monk countered. "Why didn't Raimundo or Clay go in?"
"They were on the other side of the temple." Mystic began, returning to the wilting roses she had been attending. "We didn't have the time."
"Oh yes, & they just happened to be on the other side of the temple. I bet you were the one who suggested they go ahead & leave without me!"
Master Fung, who stood directly behind Omi, thought now would be a good time to intervene. "If you must know, Omi, Kimiko is the one to suggest they leave. Mystic, go ahead & finish the garden for us, Then you may have the rest of the day to yourselves, no need to do the chores."
"Thank you, Master," Griffon said & bowed in respect.
"Yes, Grandfather, thank you!" Mystic bowed, & with a wave of her hand all the plants in the garden began to burst with life.
Omi walked up to Griffon. "Why didn't you & Mystic go with the others?" he asked.
"Swamp." She replied.
"Huh?" He didn't understand.
"Dojo said it was in a swamp, so I refused to go."
"Why?"
"Leeches live in swamps. Leeches suck blood. When they suck too much blood, you have to rest, you have to remain hydrated, & you have to have a large intake of sugar. But I don't know why Mystic stayed." Griffon explained as she walked into the temple with Omi.
"How is that a bad thing?"
"For you, it isn't. But for shifters, sugar is a very dangerous thing, it can make them do terrible things."
"What kind of things?" Omi was now intrigued by these facts, he wanted to know more.
"One shifter went on a killing spree, another set fire to a few neighborhoods in California, a group of them went insane & thought they were vampires, drinking people's blood without killing them-the list goes on! But people thought they were on drugs, not shifters on a sugar-induced rampage. None of them ever found out about the shifter side of them."
"Where did you learn all that?"
Griffon looked down, a sad expression on her face. "Hannibal said that I learned it from my father. That I remembered the facts & not the who told me them because it was more important to remember those facts, rather than to remember my family."
"Are you saying that Hannibal Bean was the one who made you lose your memory?"
Griffon plopped down in a chair. "That's what he said happened, but I've never known what really happened."
Omi put a hand on her shoulder, trying to comfort her. "Maybe I can help you figure out a way to get it back!"
"Thanks for the offer, Omi, but it's best not to. I'm gonna' go lay down, I've got a headache." She got up & walked down the hall to the rooms, leaving a confused Omi with his thoughts.
"I hope she'll be okay." Omi stated to himself as he made his way to the training grounds.

As Griffon walked past the rooms of the dragons, she remembered that Raimundo had offered to lend her his DVD player & a movie he said she should watch. At the memory, a smile formed on her face & she turned to go into his room.
On his mat was a silver DVD player & a black CD case. Griffon picked them up & headed to her own room.
Griffin sat down on her mat & looked at the title on the case. "'The Nightmare Before Christmas!'" She read. All of a sudden, memories flashed through her head.
*Flashback*
A young Griffon walked into a video store, holding the hand of a young man. The man had the same burnt orange hair as her, striking green eyes, & light freckles on his nose. "Now, Griffon, go pick out a movie for all of us to enjoy. Okay?" He said. His voice held a thick British accent.
"Okay, daddy!" Griffon said, running through the aisles until a movie caught her eye. "I found one!" she called to her father, picking up the DVD.
"'The Nightmare Before Christmas?' I have a feeling you & your brothers will like this." He said, picking the girl up & walking up to a register.
*Flashback*
"My dad?" She mumbled, dropping the case & ran out of her room. She had to tell the others. "Mystic!" Griffon's voice rang throughout the whole temple.
