Disclaimer-I do not own Xiaolin Showdown

There is a fifteen year old girl named Arianna Young who is the daughter of the immortal Heylin villain Chase Young. But unbeknownst to the both of them Arianna is a Xiaolin Dragon of Darkness and is Chase Young's light side reborn. And this is where our story begins…

It all began like any other day in Arianna's life she was cleaning the breakfast dishes she and her father just ate off of when she felt a strange surge of Pain in her body.

"Ughh!" Groaned Arianna as she tried to find the source of the pain but as soon as it came it dissipated into nothingness.

"Well that was weird." Though Arianna "why did I just feel pain just now? Maybe there are times in life when a person just feels pain for no reason I'll ask dad later when I am done." Little did she know that "Pain" was the Dragon of Darkness giving a surge to let Arianna know it was time to accept her destiny as the Dragon of Darkness.

Meanwhile at the Xiaolin temple the day was going like any other day it had been 6 months since Raimundo was made into a Shoku Leader to his friends Kimiko, Clay and Omi, in which Kimiko and Clay were proud of him while Omi was sulky at first but later accepted the promotion as just, .Training was going more arduous than usual and while Raimundo was Shoku leader he still had to participate in the training course like everyone else." Guys I don't know what Master Fung was thinking about this but I don't like it!" Raimundo said to the others who in turn agreed with him in which the training course was to retrieve the Shen Gong Wu ,which today it was the Kuzusu Atom, while avoiding a room of fiery coals, a spike filled ravine and lowering pendulums that had axes on the ends." But it must be done my friends we must be prepared for anything." Omi stated in a proud tone "I heard of Indiana Jones but this is ridiculous!" Kimiko stated and by the looks of it she was right.

"But we can't just stand here like a cowboy in a viper's nest we've got to go get the Kuzusu Atom out of that Torture Device" Clay told them in a serious tone in his voice. (A/N-I'll let you figure out how they got that Shen Gong Wu out of the Torture Device got to get on with the story.) In the Meditation Chamber 3 hours later four tired monks and Master Fung were bandaging their wounds from the torturous training exercise "I must say you are willing to retrieve many Shen Gong Wu even at your own peril, interesting" Master Fung commented with some regret in his voice. "Master Fung you better come and look at this!" Dojo shouted with a shocked look on his dragon face,with that the monks Dojo and Master Fung ran into the Underground Mantra Chamber where seven torches lay. Two of them were not lit however five of them were. One of the torches had a Soil Brown flame another had a Teal flame another had a normal flame colour the fourth had a Cerulean Blue flame and the last had a Violet flame and that was the one in which Dojo and Master Fung were attracted to.

"This is most interesting the Dragon of Darkness has finally revealed itself" Master Fung said in admiration while the rest of the dragons were confused and boggled.

"Wait I thought Darkness was a bad thing." Raimundo queried while still having a confused look on his face.

"Normally yes but in this case the Dragon of Darkness is one of the most important Dragon of them all he or she will be the one who will allow the rest of you to obtain Shoku level so you all will be like Raimundo and he or she will be loyal to the Xiaolin forces to the end." Stated Master Fung

"I must say this is most glorious and at the same time most confusing as I thought there were only four dragons." Omi said still confused as the rest were. "There are four dragons but actually there are seven dragons the five we now know: Water, Earth, Wind, Fire and Darkness and the other two: Light and Electricity, to me the last Dragon of Light was beautiful in my opinion." Dojo Stated and Mentioned in a Alisia sort of tone. "Okay so there is another Dragon but there is just one problem where does he or she live?" Kimiko asked "Alas that is one thing we do not know all we can do is let the Dragon of Darkness follow his or her heart and come to the Xiaolin temple" Master Fung Says while sighing sadly. Clay decided to change the subject "Maybe we should go and get some lunch I'm hungrier than a jackrabbit in the middle of a sandy desert." "You monks nourish yourselves I will be along in a few minutes" Master Fung told the monks and when the monks left Master Fung finally broke the silence "If my guesses are correct the Dragon of Darkness will come to the temple either tonight or tomorrow morning." "Okay if you just said that why did you say that the dragon may not come to the temple?" Dojo asked Master Fung in a annoyed tone of voice. "I did not want to over excite the monks in case he or she did not come to the temple" Master Fung Replied in a matter-of-fact tone "So how will it happen?" Dojo asked "The question is not 'How it will happen?'Dojo the question is 'When will it happen?'" Master fung Replied.

Later that night while Arianna was clearing the Dinner table she felt the pain again but this time it was much more intense than this morning that she actually screamed out in pain "ARRRGHHH DAD HELP ME!!!" Arianna screamed out to her father the scream was so loud that it sent Chase Young running to her and with a distressed look on his face he appeared at her crumpled body to try to calm her down "It is okay Arianna; You must calm down!" Chase Young Said in a calm voice to Arianna then the pain was gone again "It happened again Dad this time it was much more bad than the last one I think something is wrong with me." Arianna said "There is nothing wrong with you." Chase said in a flat voice "Just go to bed I'll clean the dishes." "Thanks Daddy." Arianna said in a grateful voice and she sauntered off to bed. Meanwhile Chase Thought on what to do for his daughter when the Xiaolin monks raided the temple he told his daughter to hide until he gave the thumbs up to come out and now he will have to kill her now because she is the Dragon of Darkness he knew the pains she felt was not puberty like he told Arianna but the calls of the Dragon of Darkness now he Contemplated on whether or not to kill her. Later that night while Arianna was asleep she had this dream where she was in the throne room and she was placing flowers in a vase she bought just then Chase ambushed her in his Reptile form and she screamed when it happened he then said" I am sorry about this but you are the Dragon of Darkness and therefore my enemy you are a Xiaolin warrior and I must kill you"

"Dad I won't hurt you honest just get off me please!!!" Arianna Yelled,really freaked out (A/N-Well wouldn't you be if your dad attacked you out of nowhere)

"Sorry but I can't take that chance with the dragon active in you, you are a direct threat to me and the Heylin side,NOW DIE!!!" Chase said in Horrific Zealous Joy

"NO!!!!"Arianna screamed in shock

Just when the claws were about to plunge into Arianna's chest a flash appeared and Chase disappeared from off her and instead a man appeared and said to her

"Arianna Young you must leave at once Your home is not safe at this time especially for you."The Man said

"Sir why did my dad try to kill me in my dream?"Arianna Asked in question

"It was no dream Arianna Young it was a warning of coming events that will lead to your demise if you stay in this house reason being is that you are the Dragon of Darkness an important role in the Xiaolin Warrior clan."The Man Replied

"So that is what he meant by Dragon of Darkness he would try to kill me because of that but I don't know what it means"

"It means that because of your fathers relations with the Heylin side you have become his own worst enemy now sit down I will tell you everything; 1500 years ago in China there was an evil immortal witch named Wuya she began a conquest of all of China now she neared complete conquest until three men by the names of Grand Master Dashi Master Monk Guan and of course your own father Chase Young and with the defeat of Wuya and her Entrapment in a Puzzle Box

They celebrated that night with women and rice wine unfortunately your fathers time on the Xiaolin side was about to come to an end. Enter Hannibal Roy Bean, the most detestable legume imaginable to the naked eye he was the one who turned your father to the Heylin side. He tricked your father by showing a Fake image of Master Monk Guan gloating of his promotion to Grand Master which more than enough convinced your father to switch sides the next day your father took Hannibal's Lao Mang Long Soup and it gave your father unimaginable power and immortality only afterward did he discover that without drinking his soup every day he will revert to a dragon form and a year later he returned to the Xiaolin temple and used his power to kill Dashi and his 29 year old wife and sought to kill Guan"

"Then why didn't he Master Monk Guan is still alive?"Arianna Queried

"By the time that Chase had killed Dashi and his wife Guan had already left China and was in Manchuria when he returned to the temple 6 months later Guan found the remains of Dashi and Dashi's wife on the floor that day on he vowed to kill Chase Young so he took an Elixir of Life to live forever until his business is complete so in 1949 when the communist's took over Chase and Guan found each other and fought to the death but neither could deliver the final blow so Chase took the Spear of Guan and fled but in 2004 Guan and Chase met again in you home this time for the freedom of a dragon named Dojo which Guan won of course when it leads us to the year 2007 and you a 15 year old Xiaolin dragon who must flee her father"

"But why does he want to kill ME I'm not like Guan or Dashi I can't make elemental moves"Arianna replied

"But you can your element is Darkness and you are Already a Wudai warrior Because of it now in this dream you can practice your moves I will show you but when I wake you up you must pack your clothes and things and flee your home to the safety of the Xiaolin temple and do not stop until you get there but first our lesson now get into the Phoenix Pose."The Man Lectured and Arianna Complied "Now say Rain of Death Darkness."

Arianna then said"RAIN OF DEATH DARKNESS!" and she turned up and saw Kunai blades fall from the sky and hit the scarecrow target then she snapped her finger and the blades exploded which incinerated the target.

"Well done I will show you one more move then I will wake you up after that do as I said earlier and run to the temple and don't stop. Now enter the Xiaolin pose." Which Arianna quickly complied "now say "Halberd of the Damned Darkness" Arianna then said "HALBERD OF THE DAMNED DARKNESS!" then she completed the move in which she struck her fist and then her target (Another Scarecrow)

Started to be sucked into the oblivious black hole-Which Arianna Created-in the torso of the scarecrow."You now know your element now do as I say and run to the temple and don't stop now GO!!"

As soon as he said that Arianna woke with a start she then complied and grabbed her duffel bag stuffed in her clothes her stuffed bunny"Fawkes" and her MP3 player and her portable DVD player and a few Anime DVD's then she crept out as quiet as a mouse to the outside and managed to climb down the cliff and down to the ground and "Ran like a bat out of hell" until she felt she couldn't go on and collapsed and passed out. When she awoke she was in a room unlike any other one thing was for sure it was not her Father's home or her room for that matter she was in a room full of surfing posters tacked on the walls and a window was open it was a bright day outside Just then a boy with dark hair entered the room and saw she was awake "GUYS SHE'S OKAY COME QUICK!!!" The Boy Said while Arianna was trying to regain herself finally she got the courage to say "Who are you?" "Oh Sorry if I woke you up there man; my name is Raimundo by the way what's yours?"

"Arianna Li Amadaeus Young." Arianna told Raimundo in a skeptical look which he saw in that case he replied "Don't worry I'm not going to hurt you babe just wanted to know who you are" and then the others came in with Dojo in tow "Raimundo how long was she awake?" Dojo asked Raimundo while not taking his eyes off Arianna who replied "I only woke up a few minutes ago and how long was I out by the way?" "For only eight hours; if Master Fung hadn't found you while he was walking through the field to look at the sunrise we wouldn't sure if you would still be alive" A Girl said which in this case Arianna replied "Well thank you and what are your names by the way don't worry my intentions are good." "Oh my name is Kimiko and this is Clay" pointing at the tall husky cowboy "and this is Omi" Pointing to the small yellow monk who in turn smiled back. "and you met Raimundo I see; and who are you?" "Oh my name is Arianna Li Amadaeus Young and thank you for saving my life" she said to the monks in a grateful voice.

"Hey now that you're here what do you want first?" Rai asked the dirty and now awake girl who replied "Got anything to eat?"

"We sure do and by the looks of it you're as hungry as a viper in a batch of quicksand" Clay said to the girl who then was led to the dining room where there was laden on the table every bit of food imaginable which Arianna started on and started to scarf down on every last bit of it while the monks looked on at her with shocked eyes she hadn't reached half of it when she had a belly ache the size of Texas apparently she had eaten too much "My friend it appears who have bitten off more than you can consume and digest." Omi said to Arianna who replied "Don't you mean bite off more than you can chew?" "That too." By the time she was done Master Fung came into the Dining room and saw that Arianna was awake "Welcome to the temple young Dragon we have awaited you're arrival." "Ok I know I am the Dragon of Darkness but does everyone have to know that?" Arianna told the now bewildered Master who in return asked Arianna to come to the Meditation hall which she complied when they reached the meditation hall Master Fung broke the silence "Now how did you figure out that you were the Dragon of Darkness young one?" "I had this dream last night where my dad tried to kill me because I was this dragon but before he could there was this flash and this man appeared in front of me and told me I was then he told me everything my father was that he is a immortal Heylin demonic monster and the name Chase Young was feared throughout the world"

"And Arianna is the Young in your last name related to Chase Young?"

"Yes master but please don't be mad at me I didn't know that he was that way."

"I am not angry with you are the Dragon of Darkness and you have shown you're bravery by accepting the destiny held out toward you I saw you're dream last night and I am impressed that you accepted the fate."

"So I can stay here then?"

"You may for I welcome thee Arianna Li Amadaeus Young the Dragon of Darkness!"

Just then the door broke down and Raimundo Kimiko Clay and Omi fell through.

"Why didn't you tell us that you were Chase Young's daughter? Omi queried

"I didn't know you were there and I might not be anymore you know because of my Dragon."

"Well I think that you were brave to leave Chase before anything happens my friend"

"Way to go Dark Girl!"Raimundo cheered

"Thanks"

Than they headed out for the first day of training which Arianna successfully used her element to pass.

Later that night everyone was sitting down to a game of Pong(A/N-Which unfortunately was all the video games they had but was enjoyable) when there came a knock at the door which Omi answered and it was not Master Fung or any elder monk… It was Chase Young.

"Pardon me Omi but you have a girl who is mine."

Omi replied by closing the door slowly and went back to the room where they were playing Pong and he Screamed "RUN AND HIDE CHASE YOUNG IS HERE!!!!!"

"Oh Crap its my dad!"Arianna shouted

Then Chase busted the door down and started to walk toward Arianna with a malicious grin on his face "Now Arianna I don't how you figured out you were the Dragon of Darkness

But come to me and I'll make your death quick and painless."

"No dad I am not coming with you I like it here I have friends"

Chase then broke a vase and a piece of wall

"Stop it dad they told I can be the dragon and I accepted don't you see dad I gotta try and get along with the world I don't like yours."

This only made Chase angrier as he busted the walls and the vases then he calmed down and said to her "Fine you can stay but you're still my daughter but you no longer have a home."

"That's fine I have a place to stay and it's with the Xiaolin warriors."

"That does it regardless of genealogical traits from now on we're enemies!"

Then Chase walked out the door and out of the temple then Raimundo broke the silence.

"Well you can't go back home now because Chase kicked you out and you're his enemy now."

"I guess you're living with us from now on."

Kimiko said to Arianna

"That's okay because I am not afraid, not anymore."

So this is the end of the story right? Wrong it is only beginning.
