Chapter 1: New Faces
"So what's the Wu Dojo?"
The four Xiaolin Warriors flew on Dojo's back over the country of modern England, admiring the countryside and towns as they looked for the newest Shen Gung Wu.
"Well Kimiko, it's called the Bracelet of Memaki, and the wearer is able to enter the memories of others. Not a very useful Wu in battle, but great for finding out the weaknesses of your opponents." The dragon replied as he scanned the fields for the object.
"So, if we get this bracelet thing, we'll be able to watch people's memories like, what, a movie?" Raimundo questioned.
"Precisely!"
"We anywhere near the Wu yet partner?" Clay shouted over the sound of the wind.
Dojo stopped in mid air for a moment.
"If I'm right, it's right about…HERE!" On the last word he sunk into a nosedive, forcing Kimiko, Raimundo, Clay and Omi to hang on for dear life. Dojo pulled out of the dive just before they hit the ground and landed in a small village. The four Warriors hopped off the dragon's back and Dojo changed back to his original size of somewhere around ten inches.
"Where are we?" Omi gazed around. It was quiet, and they had landed next to a large church in a sunny clearing. There was what looked to be a café some way away and it seemed as if the church was located at the bottom of a hill, at the top of which were some houses and in the distance, a park full of children.
"This, my friends, is the small village of Escomb, up in the North East part of England, and we are standing next to the famous Saxon Church." Dojo informed them. He suddenly went rigid. "I'm sensing the Shen Gung Wu around here! It's somewhere… that way!" Raimundo lead the group to where Dojo was pointing up the hill.
"Hey, how come we, like, never come to England?" Rai asked Dojo as they walked.
"Yeah, it's really beautiful." Kimiko spoke up.
"I guess Dashi and I just didn't hide much Wu here." Dojo answered
"Why?"
"Something about the weather always changing at random points in the day. One minute it's sunny, the next it's misty, and then it's raining. Never can tell with England, but that's mainly down in the south." (I live in England, I should know!)
The others smiled and continued up the hill.
"Hey guys?"
"Yeah Kimiko?" Rai stopped in his tracks and turned to his best friend.
"What's that?" She pointed to a large field some way in the difference, where three silhouettes streaked through it and a flying figure chased after them.
"Jack Spicer!"
.
Three shadows tore through the fields, finally reaching a forest. One of the three girls risked a glance over her shoulder, and gasped as she saw that the boy following them was not far behind. They fled into the trees with surprising speed for teenage girls and their pursuer was forced to slow down so he could weave through the trees without crashing.
Next to the boy, a floating purple head with a mask for a face shouted at the boy as he flew with his small helicopter wings, her screams piercing the air, reaching the girls as clearly as if they had been standing right next to the ghost lady.
"Jack you idiot! Why are you slowing down? Hurry up, or they'll get away!"
"Chill Wuya! I've never let anyone get away with my Wu before!"
"Oh yes! Except for the Xiaolin Warriors, Chase Young, Hannibal Bean-"
Jack cut her off.
"Okay, I get it! Let's just go get those girls."
They took off again after the girls into the undergrowth.
Meanwhile, the girls themselves pelted through the forest, not daring to look back, until they reached a large clearing. Amber was slowing down, and finally collapsed in the middle, her sisters running over to help her.
"Amber, come on, please! We've got to keep going!" Sylvia pleaded to her twelve year old sister.
"I can't…" The small red haired girl panted. "We've been running all day… and now… this weirdo shows up…and we've got to run even more!"
"Hey! Who're you calling a weirdo!"
The boy named Jack Spicer came crashing through the trees, the ghost head named Wuya behind him.
"You." Anya answered simply. Jack turned as crimson as his hair and flew over to her, trying to get a closer look at his so called opponents.
The two oldest girls were Jack's age, obviously twins; although one's red hair was a shade lighter than her sister's. If the youngest hadn't been shorter, people might have mistaken them for triplets. All three girls had the same silvery eyes, but they all dressed differently.
One of the twins wore a red short sleeved shirt with black writing that said "Some people are like slinkies, useless, but fun to push down the stairs". She also wore a magenta skirt with black leggings and multicoloured converse, and her hair was in a low ponytail with a blue bobble.
The second twin had a yellow shirt and a red cardigan, with jeans and blue trainers. She wore her hair up in a high ponytail with a red bobble.
The youngest sister wore a rosy pink short sleeved shirt with dark blue jeans, white trainers and blue cardigan.
All of the three girls' clothes were slightly ripped in places, and their hair was slightly dishevelled, making it obvious that they had been running a long way. They looked hungry and tired, their thin bodies and shadows under their eyes were enough to tell Jack that, and he could not help but feel a pang of pity. He landed on the ground and walked closer towards the frightened girls, who still hadn't moved from their spot next to their sister. All three of the girls also wore backpacks.
"What're your names?"
One of the twins's narrowed her eyes, but spoke anyway.
"I'm Anya, my twin is Sylvia and my little sister is Amber."
Jack smiled at Anya, but was surprised to find that he was disappointed when she didn't return it.
"Jack Spicer, evil boy genius!"
"That's a self given title."
It wasn't a question; it was the flat out truth. Jack flushed slightly and tried a different tactic as he smirked.
"Knew I couldn't get anything past a pretty girl like you."
He has expected her to blush, or turn away in embarrassment, so he was shocked when she face palmed, an annoyed look on her face.
"Are you seriously trying to flirt with me!"
"No," Wuya put in, "He was trying and failing to flirt with you."
Anya smirked. "You're right about that."
Jack sighed, he didn't want to fight, especially when the Xiaolin Warriors might show up at any minute, so he wanted as many of his Jack-Bots as possible intact. He might as well try just asking. He turned toward Sylvia and held out his hand.
"Look, I'll leave now, and leave you alone, if you give me the Bracelet of Memaki."
Sylvia looked down at the bracelet in her hand. She knew what it was, she'd seen it in one of the scrolls that she and her sisters had stolen from her father the night they had ran away. She wasn't stupid enough to give a powerful piece of Shen Gung Wu to, judging by his appearance, personality and introduction, someone who was obviously evil.
"No."
"Alright, I didn't want to have to do this. Jack-Bots! Attack!"
Through the trees behind him came a huge torrent of flying robots, streaking through the air. One was far in the lead, heading straight for Anya, who was too close to it to run. Her eyes widened as it came straight for her, about to attack or simply crash into her she did not know. Her sisters watched in frozen shock as Anya closed her eyes and braced her self for the impact-
"TYPHOON BOOM! WIND!"
The impact that never came.
Anya heard gasps from her siblings as a heavy wind almost knocked her off her feet and forced her eyes open. She just had time to see the Jack-Bot that was going to attack her be blown back with massive force before it hit a tree with many other bots and exploded. She gazed over to where the shout had come from to look at her saviour.
A tall handsome boy with dark green eyes and brown hair wiped his hands as he stopped the wind. He had an orange, white and green shirt on as well as pale brown jeans and black and white trainers. He smirked at Jack in a, Is-that-the-best-you-can-do? way and got into a fighting stance.
Standing next to him was small pretty girl with her raven black hair up in a ponytail and sapphire blue eyes. By the shape of her face and eyes, the siblings assumed her to be Japanese. She wore a pink top with black sleeves and black jeans with pink and black trainers.
On her right was a strong looking boy with blond hair and bright blue eyes. He was dressed in a light blue shirt, blue jeans and a cowboy hat.
These three looked about the twin's age, but the last boy looked about Amber's. This boy though had a completely round, yellowish head and wore red robes with black trousers and belt. He had warm, coal black eyes, but there was a prideful gleam in them as he shouted to Jack.
"Jack Spicer! Prepare for a most humiliating defeat!"
"Well well, if it isn't the Xiaolin LOSERS! JACK-BOTS! ATTACK!"
The swarm of bots now charged towards the newcomers, but were stopped as the black haired girl leaped into the air.
"JUDALIP FLIP! FIRE!"
She flipped down wards with fire erupting around her towards the robots and the flames destroyed all of the ones close to her before they went out like lights.
"Way to go Kimiko!" The tall boy shouted to her and her pale cheeks tinged a very slight bright pink.
The cowboy then stepped forward as more Jack-Bots did the same. He lifted his foot up and shouted in a Southern accent.
"SEISMIC KICK! EARTH!
He brought his foot down with enormous power and the ground cracked beneath him. A large amount of earth sprang up from the ground and several chunks flew towards the bots and crashed into them, smashing most of them into pieces. The other three cheered again as Anya, Amber and Sylvia watched in awe.
The last boy now came forward.
"TORNADO STRIKE! WATER!" He yelled loudly.
A wave of water rose up from the ground to form a twister around the little guy until it obscured him from view. Then suddenly, the twister shot upwards then crashed back down again with the force of the strongest tsunami onto the robots, wiping them out.
"Great job Omi!"
"Nice work partner!"
"You go Chrome Dome!" (Guess who)
The boy took a bow, and his team mates joined him on the front lines. Jack who had been watching them wipe out his first set of robots irritably sent nearly all of his robots to fight them, but kept three or four behind. The four newcomers started fighting straight away, the amount of Jack-Bots now attacking them, kept them to busy to notice as Jack sent the last four of his robots toward the three sisters.
Whilst the first two rushed to Amber and Anya, two went towards Sylvia, who was still holding the bracelet. Sylvia gasped as it came towards her, before she heard a small cry of pain. Looking quickly to her left, she saw one of the Jack-Bots twisting Amber's arms behind her back. Ambers face was contorted with pain. She let out another whimper as the robot twisted her arms further, restricting her movement completely. It was easy to see that she was trying not to scream.
And something just snapped.
Sylvia felt a rage inside her that she had never felt before, fury that her fragile little sister was being hurt for no reason. If it had taken all of Sylvia's will power before to stop her father from hitting Amber, it was nothing to what she felt now. Her own pathetic fear of her father had stopped her then, but this, after more than a year of seeing it happen too many times to count, gave her that last tap she needed to push her over the edge, letting her anger out at last.
She only forced herself back to the robot coming her just in time, as it was less than a metre away, before she put her hands in front of her, to try and stop it from crashing and closed her eyes, anger and adrenaline still pulsing through her veins.
And then-
Absolute silence.
Sylvia opened her eyes, to see that everyone had stopped their fight and was staring at her. She wondered why, until she saw the robot.
Long, thick green vines had forced their way out of the forest soil, grown to her size in less than a seconds, and wrapped their feelers sinisterly around the Jack-Bot that had been about to attack the fourteen year old girl, and were squeezing it tighter and tighter as each moment passed. Sylvia gaped, shock replacing her anger instantly, and the vines gave one more massive squeeze, making the robot explode.
Did I do that?
Everyone was still staring at her, apart from Amber, who was still having her hands twisted behind her back. Sylvia saw that her sister was still in great pain, her fury coming back as quickly as it subsided.
But she barely had time to register her rage again before the robot twisted her arm further still as she struggled, and as the pain became too much to hold it in any longer and everyone turned to her at last, Amber gave a loud, anguished and pain filled scream.
It was louder than they must have thought; as they had to cover their ears as a large sound wave was thrown thought the forest, shaking the branches of the trees. A deafening roar of thunder surrounded them, but no clouds were seen in the sky. The Jack-Bots all started to rattle violently, until they all exploded. The noise lasted about five seconds before it died down.
Anya was getting sick of all this silence. Jack and his opponents were still staring at Amber and Sylvia as if they were ghosts. The few remaining Jack-Bots were standing emotionlessly. Only Wuya seemed to be keeping a cool head.
"Jack! Stop gaping like a goldfish and get the Shen Gung Wu!"
Jack shook his head and turned to his remaining Jack-Bots, and shouted in an uncertain voice.
"Jack-Bots. Attack!
"Oh no you don't!" Anya raised her hands, an explanation of why what was happening was happening already forming in her head. And if she was right, this should work perfectly.
She closed her eyes and concentrated all of the anger she had bottled up, letting the rage flow through her. Images of her father as he hit and slapped her and her sisters, the past few rough days of living without a proper home, scavenging for food, all her frustration and fury that she had kept in for the past year built up. Anya opened her eyes again, a fire raging in them and let her wrath be unleashed.
At once, Anya knew what she had done worked, as a yellowish glow surrounded her hands, heating them up. A small crackling noise was heard from her fingers and two small balls of yellowish light formed in the palms of her hands and slowly turned into small spheres of electricity, then into raging orbs of voltage. Every eye in the clearing was on her hands as she brought them back, the spheres still growing steadily bigger until they were as big as her head, and threw her hands in front of her, releasing the orbs of electrical energy and throwing it towards the Jack-Bots, hitting the one right in the centre of the clearing, but a huge shockwave from the electricity got the rest anyway.
Some of the robots froze at the impact, and then started to crackle and spit, before blowing up into a thousand pieces. The rest exploded immediately.
Everyone was still staring as the sisters, who had recovered from the shock of the discovery, and had turned toward Jack again.
"Do you want to try again?" Amber taunted. Jack looked completely willing to high tail it and run, but a glare from Wuya kept him in place for a few more seconds.
"Alright, you win this time, but only because you had the advantage of the element of surprise." The disembodied head turned around and started to drift toward the trees. "But remember, beginners luck can never last long. Come on Jack."
With that the two took to the air and it was only a few seconds before they disappeared over the horizon, leaving the siblings alone with their saviours.
After a few seconds the four people got over their shock and there were a few awkward second of silence before Sylvia decided that it was time to break the ice. She stepped forward and held out her hand to the first person in the line, which was Clay.
"Sylvia, and you are?"
"Clay. Clay Bailey." Clay replied as he shook her hand. Amber then came up to the second boy, the one around her age with the round head.
"I'm Amber."
"I am most pleased to meet you Amber, my name is Omi." He said as Amber smiled. Last but not least, Anya went over to the last two in the line, holding her hand out to the boy first, who quickly shook it and spoke first.
"Raimundo Pedrosa." Rai smiled at the cute girl in front of him, his customary flirting personality kicking in. "Is your name as pretty as your face?"
Next to him, the girl's eye twitched, but seemed to relax when she saw Anya grin at her and roll her eyes at Rai, despite the tiny bit of colour that went to her cheeks.
"Well, you're better at flirting than Jack was, but sorry, no dice." She smiled at him though, knowing that flirting was probably just part of his personality. "The name's Anya."
He smirked at her, letting her know that this was just what he did and she nodded back to him before turning to the last girl, who had visibly calmed down once she saw that Anya and Rai were joking around.
"Kimiko Tohimiko. Finally, more girls around this place!" Kimiko beamed and Anya returned the favour before letting her sisters introduce themselves to Rai and Kimiko and going over to Omi and Clay.
As soon as Anya had finished talking to Clay and Omi, a small, green gecko like creature crawled out from under Clay's hat.
"Is that a gecko?" Sylvia asked. The creature immediately whipped around to face her.
"Who're you calling gecko!"
Amber and Anya squeaked in surprise as he glared at them. Sylvia let a flitter of shock pass across her face before quickly regaining her composure and addressing the creature.
"Sorry about that, but what exactly are you?"
The mysterious being drew himself up and stated in a proud voice,
"I am Dojo Kanojo Cho, Guardian of the Ancient Scroll of the Shen Gong Wu!"
"He's also our dragon." Rai put in.
"I saw what you three did back there." Dojo said thoughtfully, but then a serious expression crossed his face. "Would you come back to the temple with us?"
Anya looked at her two sisters, and knew they were thinking the same thing.
"Not until you tell us what's going on. Like how you four have powers. And why I am seeing a real life dragon in front of my face."
Dojo sighed.
"Fine. Now, around 1500 years ago, there was a man named Dashi who hid mystical objects around the world named Shen Gung Wu and-"
"Yes, we already know about that. What about how you guys have powers?"
Again, for at least the third or fourth time that day, the Xiaolin monks and Dojo all just stared at the twins and their little sister.
"How the Sam Billy's cow do you know about the Shen Gung Wu?" Clay asked.
Sylvia exchanged a glance with her sisters, wondering if they could trust them. Amber and Anya nodded. After all, the Xiaolin warriors had just saved their lives. Sylvia reached inside her backpack and pulled out one of the many scrolls they had stolen from their cruel father and handed it to Dojo. It was the scroll explaining about the Bracelet of Memaki. After one look at the scroll the dragon said,
"If you come back to Xiaolin temple in China with us, we'll explain everything."
"And how exactly are we supposed to get to China?" Anya asked.
"Like this." Dojo answered, before swiftly growing in size to around forty feet long. The siblings just shook their heads, after what they had seen today, they sure that nothing could surprise them, and they climbed up onto Dojo's back after Omi, Rai, Kimiko and Clay. Dojo flew upwards, startling the sisters a little before flying off into the distance.
Me: YES! They have met the Xiaolin monks!
Rai: At least now things may get interesting!
Me: And whats THAT supposed to mean! *fire comes out of eyes and head grows huge as I scream at Rai*
Rai: Um...nothing?
Me: I may think you're awesome, but I can STILL fire you as one of my Authors Note Gang!
Rai: And who would you use instead of me?
Me: SHADOW! *pulls Shadow the Hedgehog out of thin air*
Shadow: What the hell am I doing here?
Chase Young: Get out of Xiaolin Showdown you rat!
Me: O.O...you did NOT just say that to Shadow. You'd better run Chase, before he kills you!
Chase: Yeah right I-
Shadow: CHAOS BLAST! *Kills Chase and his many fangirls cry while Shadow fangirls cheer*
Me: Nice job Shadow, you can go back to the Sonic universe now and I'll call you if I need you again! *Shadow disappears*
Rai, Kimiko, Omi, Clay and Jack: O.O
Jack: Okay then...
Review! DO IT FOR THE PIDGEONS!
