Who are you, to question my abilities? I can do this just fine, no help from you or the others. This is just another one of those rip-offs. I worked harder than any of the rest of you, you can count on that. What did I get for diligence? What did I get for my best? What did I get for bravery in a time of crisis? Utter disappointment. It was all just to watch all of you succeed while I fell farther behind than ever.
Now you gloat. Use your powers in new ways that I will have to wait to use. I do not want to wait, to stand in the sidelines as you take all of the glory with your powerful new moves. I want to be in the spotlight. To share it with all of you. Feel the exhilaration of being powerful.
I always thought I was doing my best here. I worked as hard as I could to impress you all, but what I got in return was a lack of respect. Now I strive to keep myself here, though my patience is wearing thin with each taunt, each new power that you gain.
I find that my mind held many secrets, and I mistakenly bestowed them onto the most evil force of all. Now the Heylin is pulling me in like some sort of lure. It's dark shadows beckon to me as if calling out, 'Raimundo. Your life will be better here. '. I cannot resist the shouts any longer.
Soon you all will see my true potential. Where I am meant to be is not with the Xiaolin. No, it is with the dark forces of the Heylin that my trust resides. You have not earned my trust and effort. So I will leave.
You seemed surprised that I chose this path. This does not confound me, seeing as how I put all of my faith and my best foot forward into the quest to locate the shen gong wu. But you must have also seen my lack of enthusiasm with the business. The respect was not... Adequate, as you might say, Omi. But you are in the past now. That time is over and done. Now I will fight against you and you will see how it feels to be mistreated such as you did to me.
"From now on, you can find me on the Heylin side." ~Raimundo
