This is my first story!!!
Chapter 1
It was morning, and in the temple, Raimundo, Clay, Kimiko, and Omi were doing their chores.
"I am bitten," Omi panted.
"You mean this bites," Raimundo replied.
"Oh so this bites does it Raimundo?" Master Fung had just appeared behind them.
"So I guess you're ready for training?" Master Fung asked, his voice breaking slightly. He had a look of worry on his face. The Xiaolin warriors nodded their heads and followed him. They entered the room in which they usually discussed Wu. The Dragons sat down and looked up at Master Fung who was pacing up and down the room. He wheeled around and took and a deep breath.
"I suppose i had best tell you..." Master Fung sighed.
"Tell us what?" asked Kimiko, "I thought we were here for training."
"Well that is not the case. I have some important news to share with you." Master Fung confessed.
"Never does get to the point...old git." Raimundo said under his breath.
"I must inform you of…" Master Fung paused, "Something new...Shadow Wu!"
One and a half hours earlier…
"Why does nothing ever work?" Jack was in a fit again, for his most recent failures. He had been trying different fuel mixtures for his Jack-Bots. An hour flew by, as well as Wuya.
"Jack hurry up, and stop playing with your silly toy robots!" Wuya exclaimed. "We should be out trying to take down those brats at the Temple!"
"Hold on…this is so frustrating!" Jack spun round as he said these words. Suddenly he heard an odd noise…
"Jack you silly boy, you've just knocked the bag of Wu into that pot!" said Wuya.
"Did I…oh crap?" shouted Jack. Suddenly a great burst of light shot from the pot. Then a great explosion filled the lab. Silhouettes could be seen through the smoke. The shadows were somehow triggered. They seemed to be scattering everywhere. Jack and Wuya watched, amazed. But soon it was over the whole lab was destroyed. Jack was in floods of tears. All that was left was what seemed to be a small compass. Jack picked it up. Engraved on it was…
"Shadow compass?" Jack said allowed. Suddenly the compass started spinning and it pointed to the outskirts of town.
"Jack, what was in that pot?" Wuya said looking amazed.
"Just different herbs and mixtures I got off of that small black market." He said thoughtfully.
"The Wu has all gone...you must have altered it. Somehow you've created a complete new collection of Shen-gong-wu!" Wuya sounded impressed, but she tried to hide that from Jack. Jack looked up at her smiling. He began to climb over the rubble and out towards town.
"Where are you going?" asked Wuya.
"I'm off to go and brag to those Xiaolin losers!" Jack laughed.
Back at the Temple (Present Time)...
"So you see someone has managed to trigger off this much more powerful and much darker Wu. I thought it was only a story, but apparently not." Master Fung had just finished explaining Shadow Wu to the Dragons. Raimundo stood up and looked out towards the courtyard.
"We can't waste any time. We should get a bit of training in now before it gets too dark." said Raimundo.
"Good idea Raimundo," said Master Fung. The Dragons all stepped out into the cold fresh air. They got to work straight away by warming up with a few laps. They ran side-by-side in pairs. Clay and Omi was one pair and Kimiko and Raimundo were the other pair. Kimiko and Raimundo turn to look at each other. Kimiko winked at Raimundo.
"You seem to be taking the role of the leader." Kimiko laughed.
"Well you know it takes somebody very strong minded and with a strong will to be a leader." replied Raimundo.
"Well then leader, try and keep up with me, we will see how strong you really are." shouted Kimiko. All of a sudden Kimiko sped up and she took off around courtyard. Raimundo was shocked; it took him a few seconds to start picking up his own pace. He turned around to see Omi and Clay laughing hard and pointing towards him. He turned back around and stopped suddenly which made him loose balance. He went flying forward and landed on Kimiko who had also stopped. Omi and Clay helped them up and the four of them turned to face Jack who landed in the centre of the courtyard.
"Hey Xiaolin losers, I can't stay long I have a job in town that needs taking care of. But i thought I could pay you a visit first." laughed Jack.
"Spicer, why are you here?" yelled Omi.
"I'm here just to inform you that very soon i will be much stronger than any of you!" Jack began to rummage in his coat pockets.
"Oh really, and why do you think that?" asked Raimundo.
"I know...because I have this." Jack pulled out a vial containing a thick black liquid. Jack went into a huge laughing fit, he was shaking uncontrollably. Omi pulled out the Reversing Mirror and held up in defence. Just then Clay spoke…
"Spicer you have terrible butter-fingers!" The others looked up and saw it too; the bottle was beginning to slip out of Jack's hand. The bottle fell from Jack's hands and he stopped laughing. The bottle was heading right for Omi so he held up Reversing Mirror over his head. The bottle hit the mirror with a huge cracking noise. Omi threw the Mirror to the floor. The liquid from the bottle was spreading itself across the mirror. The mirror went from a shining gold, to a dull black.
"Damn it! It doesn't matter! So long Xiaolin losers," Jack called out to them, "Shadow Compass!" The compass spun around, and hit a sudden stop towards the way Jack had come.
"Reversing mirror," Omi shouted. But it didn't even flicker. Omi thought it through...Shadow Compass. Omi started to shout again, "Shadow Mirror." The Compass made a popping noise, and Jack looked down at it.
"Argh, now I'll have to repair this! Back to the lab, but before I go…" Jack paused and looked at the Dragons, "Oh what the hell...Jack-bots attack!" Jack fled from behind his robots. With a mighty leap Omi lifted high into the air, and pulled out the Orb of Tsunami. The Jack-bots were washed away. Suddenly master Fung came running out into the courtyard clutching a strange scroll. He opened it up, and the Xiaolin warriors saw silhouetted on it a circle with the words 'Ruby Orb' printed at the bottom.
"What the hell is this thing?" Raimundo said sounding confused.
"I'll tell you about it later, but first you must capture the Ruby Orb," he paused, "it makes a ring of fire like a shield around its user," he beamed at them "now go, follow this map!" Surely enough where the picture of the Ruby Orb had been, a map had appeared. Dojo-who had been on Master Fung's shoulder-jumped down and grew to his large size.
"Hurry up I'm itching like crazy over here!" shouted Dojo.
The Xiaolin Dragons bowed their heads quickly to Master Fung. They then jumped onto Dojo's back and took off out of the courtyard.
