The camera pans across a golden beach. The sand laps softly at the shores and the only sound is the gentle growl of the tide. Kimiko enters, her hair wet from swimming in the calm blue waters. She shakes her head, sending millions of tiny water droplets cascading down, slowly opens her eyes and smiles. Raimundo appears from the dense palm forest on the other side of the beach, dressed in his typical white hooded top from the first series.
"Rai! You made it!" Kimiko called, a smile crossing her face as she leaps into his open arms.
"Hey! Calm down Kimiko! You'll wet my threads!" he laughs playfully "So Kim, how do you like Rio?"
"its more beautiful than I could ever have imagined!" Kimiko says smiling
"just like you…" Rai says. He puts his arms around her waist and pulls her closer "Kim…I…" Rai says
"Shh… you'll ruin the mood!" Kim growls.
"oh! Sorry!" Rai says. The waves beat slowly as they move closer, their hands hold tighter as they head for the kiss…
"AAAAA! NO, NO!" Kim screamed
Clay lit a candle in his room (if you can call a toilet cubicle a room) "You k' in there Kimiko?" He asked
Kimiko breathed heavily sweating like a pig.
"Yes, your scream was most loud, I would not be surprised if you woke up the whole temple!" Omi said lighting up another candle
"Yeah," Yawned Raimundo, "What's up?"
"oh… Nothing" she gasped breathlessly "Just had the most terrible dream, oh man… it was so awful…I'm going to go get a glass of something." Kimiko said, lighting a candle and heading into the kitchen.
"Awful?" Raimundo said, a tear welling in his eye.
"I'm guessin' invadin' her sleep with the "scarf of dreams" didn't work then?" Clay asked.
"Stupid faulty wu!" Raimundo spluttered, pulling the sleeping bag up over himself.
"Or is it just that she don't like you?" Clay said. Rai Growled.
"Yes! That seems most true! Kimiko could never love a novice like you when she has a most handsome dragon like me to look up to. Don't take this the wrong Raimundo, you are a nice person (not including the betrayal and the ten thousand years of darkness) But Kimiko would rather have me!" Omi boasted
One of those annoying little manga anger marks appeared above Rai's eye and his teeth went all sharp and pointy. He casually pulled the covers off himself, walked over to Omi's cubical, and continued to pummel Omi senseless with the monkey staff, while making odd grunts. Kimiko walked into the room with a glass of water and stopped in the doorway, one eyebrow slightly raised.
"What are you doing?" Kim said one eyebrow raising slightly.
"We are fighting for the position of alpha male!" Omi said as Rai knocked a couple more teeth out.
"Ok whatever just don't wake me up, I need my beauty sleep. Night Omi, Clay." Kimiko said walking over to her bed (matt on the floor sleeping bag thing) and falling sound asleep.
"There's proof she don't like you, she only said our names." Clay whispered
"That's not proof!" Raimundo said still beating Omi but slightly more quietly.
"I rekin' its enough." Clay said "I'm hittin' the hay. Night Guys." Clay said falling asleep.
Raimundo continued to hit Omi for a few more minutes but eventually decided it was no fun when Clay wasn't watching, so put on the scarf and played in Kim's dreams more.
That morning Clay and Raimundo say at the breakfast table. "Aww man! Rice again?" Rai whined
Omi limped to the breakfast table with both his arms in slings and a drip attached to his left eye. "mmrrrrortinng frferniddss…" Omi muffled sitting down.
"Omi Got beat up pretty bad last night, I think maybe Jack broke in and did it!" Dojo said.
"yeah…. Jack…" Raimundo said, rubbing the back of his neck.
Kimiko Walked into the room, bags under hers eyes big enough to hold a birds nest.
"What happened to you, Rough night? Dojo asked.
" Don't ask Dojo, it was so terrible, I kept having the same dreams over and over… if I see another cute fluffy kitten I'll!…" Kim Growled angrily, clenching her fist.
"Well, that's 'Plan B' Ruined" Rai whispered hiding a kitten under his shirt.
"Rai… Why is your shirt pulsating?" Kim asked perplexed.
"Erm…. Bad gas?" Rai said
"Right…." Kim said sitting down to breakfast.
"Guys! I'm sensing a shen gong wu!" Dojo gasped holding up the scroll.
"Wwhhwhat couougougld itititt brreeeeee?" Omi Muffled.
"The tail of ka-gae!" Dojo chirped "It gives you the powers of a demon, but it's the same as the monkey staff…"
"So if you use it for too long…" Kimiko said
"You got it! Best go before Jack gets it!" Dojo said super sizing himself.
A long and annoying scene engages of the four warriors on Dojo's back flying over fields of trees and flowers.
"So Dojo, what exactly are 'the powers of a demon'"? Raimundo asked breaking the dramatic and time wasting silence scene so the cartoon made it to 30 minutes after cuts.
"The usual, incredible strength, mind reading, fire breath.." Dojo said
Rai's face dropped to a confused gaze. "Did you just say, mind reading?"
"Oh yes! Demons are most accomplished in the field of mind reading!" Omi trilled happily, seeming completely fine despite his horrific beating in the second scene, it is just the way of a low-budget cartoon.
"Mind reading eh? Well if I can Win that Wu I can find out why Kimiko hates me, and then I can MAKE her love me! MWU HA HA HA HA!" Rai cackled.
"Umm… Rai, When you make an evil plot next time, try not to blurt it out for all to hear, it ruins the story for everyone." Clay said
Rai cringed "Stupid low-budget cartoon, can't even see when I'm soliloquizing!" he muttered
"We're almost there, just one more hill…" Dojo said
COMMERCIAL BREAK FOR TWO MINUTES Go get a cup of tea or something, the unnecessarily scream "ITS STARTING!" when it comes back on just to let everyone know how stupid you are.
