"Why do you always do that?"
"Do what?" Asked Kimiko as she glanced up from the newest novel she'd been reading.
"Read?" Rai asked slightly curious. "I mean it's so time consuming." The foursome was currently riding on Dojo's back, on their way to find a new Shen-Gon-Wu called the staff of spate. This one was situated on the beautiful, tropical Island of Haiti. And of course Kimiko was wearing a brand new outfit. This one was a pretty green and brown summer dress that reached just below her knees and was 'not very sensible for fighting evil villains' according to Omi.
"Because." She smirked. "I have a brain and I enjoy using it to do something constructive."
Raimundo snorted. "What're you reading anyway?"
"Another Adam White," Kimiko grinned offering up the book. "A little bit out there but rather riveting none the less." Rai inspected it, briefly glancing at the back before flipping through the pages to check for pictures.
"I never understood what was so good about a book without pictures" Mumbled Raimundo shaking his head. He took this golden opportunity to glance at Kimiko. God she looked beautiful. She was at her most radiant when she was looking her most natural and now; Raimundo caught a glimpse of her at her peak. Her hair flowed down her back like a luscious waterfall of pure black and her smile was as radiant as the sun's blaze itself. At that moment she was the very essence of the element she could wield so passionately.
Raimundo was interrupted from his reverie when a familiar Texan voice was heard.
"So what exactly does this Wu do Dojo?" Asked Clay in his deep southern tone.
"If I remember correctly, It was a staff that could be used to bring upon the land the ten plagues of Egypt." Said Dojo rubbing his chin thoughtfully.
"I believe that is correct my friends." The group looked over at the young bald monk holding the shen-gon-wu scroll. "The picture is of a person holding a long staff with a dogs head on top." The group looked at Omi puzzled, until Kimiko snatched the scroll off him and sighed.
Kimiko looked up at the three very confused boys and started to explain. "The head on top of the staff is of the great Egyptian god Anubis." After seeing the still puzzled looks on their faces, she explained further. "Anubis was the god of the underworld and took the form of a half Human, half Jackal, that's why there is a dogs head on the staff." She looked at the ground and continued. "It's the head is Anubis."
"So." Clay took a deep breath and continued. "What does this mean?"
Kimiko looked Clay dead in the eye and simply said. "Nothing good."
"Here we are troops!" Dojo said shrinking down to normal size. The gang were on a white sandy beach with a dense jungle not too far away. Much to Raimundo's intense disappointment the ocean was dead flat. "Not a choice wave in sight!" Said Raimundo pouting. Kimiko had to admit this was a very cute sight, she almost cooed at him for being so adorable. Clay followed her gaze and smirked at her. Kimiko blushed furiously and turned away. Omi oblivious to the tension in the air thankfully changed the subject.
"My friends according to Dojo the temple containing the Wu is hidden somewhere in this most scary looking jungle."
"Okay then." Said Raimundo tearing his gaze away from the ocean. "Let's get going."

"Argh! Where is this stupid temple anyway?" Kimiko asked hotly her temper flaring. "I mean it can't be that hard to find a stupid temple on a stupid Island-
"Kimiko."
"It's about the size of a toothpick anyway-
"Kimiko?"
"We must have circled this stupid forest at least three times already-
"KIMIKO!"
"Yes?" She asked innocently. "What is it?"
"We're here." Raimundo said grinning. "Isn't it awesome?"
Kimiko set her eyes upon the ancient temple lying before them. It was a brilliant sight, made completely out of gold and a grand entrance with brilliant crystal doors. Her eyes grew wide in awe at the sight.
"We better be going in now partners." Clay's voice rang through the deserted forest. "Before some unwanted guests show up. The others nodded in agreement, they could certainly do WITHOUT seeing Chase, Wuya or Jack Spicer today.
Although he didn't say anything, Raimundo had an ominous feeling about this. Something just didn't seem right. But none the less the group entered the temple and towards fates ruthless hands
