When Wally set the terms of the Showdown he hadn't actually expected them to be transported to the Mirror World. He had just said it because Mirror Tag sounded like a good way to do it. Needless to say the shift in dimensions had thrown him for a real loop. It didn't keep him stunned for long. It was pure instinct that had him side stepping a wave of water.
Hydrokinesis?
Had to be. Jack let out a shriek from where he was running from a fire ball, causing his cousin to snort. He still sounded like a girl.
At least some things stayed the same.
The ginger looked around, hopping over punch thrown by the Texan that was, somehow, a monk. He wasn't going to use his super speed unless it was an absolute emergency but he wasn't going to lay down and accept defeat the way he did in dodge ball.
It was pretty simple, you hit someone they get sent to the other side of the mirrors with the supposed dragon, Dojo. The only catch was you had to hit them with a Wu. That would be interesting considering Jack had handed him a snake-lasso-thing while he had a stick that had something to do with primates. His pride and joy, the Monkey Spear. Apparently it temporarily rewrote his DNA.
The lasso Wally didn't know about, and so settled for waiting it out, dodging attacks and observing. His mind took off, running with observations and information. He saw Jack knock out the Japanese girl and the blond boy before he was hit by the little kid with the water ball.
This left Wally alone with him and the sword wielding boy. Wally stepped away from them, fingering his lasso. Oh boy.
It was only his years of being a hero that kept him from being beaten by them. He didn't feel as bad about playing dirty as he should have, a fact that he blamed on Jack. The older boy was just a bad influence.
Wally darted into the nearest mirror, coming out a long ways away. He started running, risking getting lost and knowing that he wouldn't be. He knew this place well and the part they were in was only a fraction of what the world really had to offer. So the games couldn't send them to the whole dimension. That was good to know.
When he burst through a mirror behind the boy he threw the lasso out, not bothering with a verbal command. He would sound like some cartoon character shouting out his ultimate attack.
Kame hame ha, he thought to himself, letting the lasso drop around the tiny bald one. The boy that had to be younger than he was yelped as he was pulled off his feet and thrown into one of the mirrors, leaving just Wally and the last boy. What had his name been? Ray? Rye? Something like that.
Wally had to admit, he was better with that sword than he was with his reptile. Unfortunately Wally was faster than the kid could ever hope to be. He made sure it was just barely.
Wally started stepping back and away from the flying blade, letting the loop of the lasso fall to the ground. He kept moving back, dodging. The kid kept coming forwards, oblivious.
Wally jumped and yanked the lasso hard. Rye's foot was ripped out of from under him, sending him tumbling back to where another mirror had appeared to suck him out.
Wally was alone in the Mirror world for just a few minutes before light started shining through all portals, blinding him. When his sight came back he was standing in the corn field the whole thing had started with, a pile of objects in front of him. The others were staring at him slack jawed.
Jack was the first to react, leaping into the air with a wild cheer. Wally grinned, pumping his fist in victory.
"Ha!" Jack shouted, pointing at the monks, "Take that, Xiaolin Losers!"
Wally snickered, leaning down to start gathering everything in his arms. "Okay, I'll admit it, that was kinda fun," the ginger at last conceded, inclining his head to his cousin.
The gothic boy picked up the rest of the Wu that wouldn't fit in the younger's arms.
"I told you so. You should have done this with me years ago," Jack complained.
Wally rolled his eyes. "Evil Boy Genius and Super Hero Wannabe aren't exactly compatible titles."
"Come on man, we make a great team," Jack shoved his shoulder.
The freckled teen made a show of trying to kick his cousin's rear end. "Yeah, you scream like a girl and I run away. Perfect team."
"We still won."
The monks were left to watch the cousins wander away in wonder.
"Wait!" the shortest one shouted after them.
The two stopped, turning to give him a cursory glance. The boy was staring directly at the natural red head.
"Who are you?" he questioned, sounding so honestly confused Wally had to answer him.
"West," he said simply, shrugging. Jack snorted from his side. Wally kicked him again.
Above their heads a bird wheeled away.
