AN:/ I know, I know, I should be updating IICHH or IWAM...allow me to tell you why I presently can only update this complete crack of a fic (you kids still use that term, right? Crack!Fic? I wasn't sure, but I think you do...) the reason being that a lot of things are going on right now on my end. I'm moving, you see. And I've been put in charge by my mum to pack up everything while my siblings and parents are busy doing everything else. So, I have to pack up my stuff, my mum's, my dad's, my anego's, my otouto's, and my dog. We bought the house the other day, but in the recent weeks (aka, since my last update), I've been doing the house hunting. So now I have a month to pack everything and I won't be getting any help despite also having my own things to do... So updates will be slow...very slow. Because I tend to have maybe ten minutes at a time to sit down at a computer and writing takes a while.

So those are my apologies and explanations...forgive me?


"You said I'd be free by breakfast."

"Aren't we eating breakfast now?" Chase countered, gesturing at all the breakfast foods at the table.

"It's lunchtime and we're eating waffles. That's not breakfast."

"You're right, it's simply the first meal of the day, let's call it brunch instead."

"What aren't you telling me?" Shadow narrowed her eyes.

"Kimiko found me last night. We had a bit of a scuffle all night long. She only left about an hour and a half ago." A dopey grin spread across his face as he remembered last night's events.

Shadow saw the grin, heard the words, and took into consideration all the noises she heard last night before her jaw dropped in disbelief. "You slept with Kimiko!"

"It's against the Xiaolin policy for their monks or Dragon Warriors to have sexual relations with anyone." He replied easily, neither confirming nor denying the accusation. He smirked and had a laughing look in his eyes.

"You did!" Shadow grabbed the waffles on her plate and threw them at her lord and master and sometimes father. "You knew I liked her and you slept with her!"

Throughout the day, Shadow randomly threw objects at Chase while claiming how unfair he was and how he never lets her have what she wants. Chase blocked or dodged every object. His only reply was that his pseudo-daughter needed to calm down so they could continue with their spreading of evil.

Eventually, a Shen Gong Wu was activated late that night, and the first thing the Xiaolin monks saw upon arriving at the scene was Shadow picking up a large rock and throwing it at Chase's head. Since the dragon overlord was distracted by the arrival of the monks, he was actually hit by the rock. His patience finally snapped and he yelled at Shadow.

"Would you stop that? I don't care if you liked her, I saw her first! We met when she was fifteen...fourteen...Kimiko, how old were you when I tried to eat Dojo that first time?" His gaze shifted to the female Dragon Warrior for a moment.

Her confusion was obvious and Kimiko slowly answered, "Fifteen and a half..."

"See? I saw her first, so I get dibs. AND! We had lovely alternate universe afternoons and nights. So double dibs." Chase informed Shadow with a grin at the memories.

Kimiko's face was aflamed as she realized just what Chase was saying in public. Omi tugged at her sleeve and she looked at him to hear his question. "Kimiko...what does Chase mean by that?"

"Oh, uh, heheh, nothing, Omi, nothing. He's probably just trying to psych out Shadow. Let's get the Shen Gong Wu while they're distracted."

"Uh, little lady, I don't think we'll be getting the Shen Gong Wu." Clay pointed in the direction of the arguing Heylin members. Just a few feet away from them was the new Shen Gong Wu.

"Hang on...I have an idea, just pretend to still be looking-" the sound of helicopter blades forced Kimiko to amend her statement, "and keep Jack away." She then walked up Chase and Shadow. "So...why exactly are you arguing? You both just always seemed like the best of buds before." She walked close to the new Wu without looking at it.

Chase and Shadow stopped glaring at each other to look at girl of their affections. Chase's eyes strayed to the Shen Gong Wu practically next to the Dragon of Fire. He turned his head back to Shadow and continues his conversation with her telepathically.

"Shadow...I have an idea, three of us touch the new Shen Gong Wu at the same time, winner gets Kimiko. If she wins, then whoever she chooses, we have to abide by. But when I win, you have to stop throwing your tantrums about this and accept it."

Shadow then looked at the Shen Gong Wu and Kimiko realized they were aware of it. The three of them jumped for it, all managing to touch it somehow, thereby starting a Showdown. Just as the Dragon of Fire was about to speak her wager, she was interrupted by Shadow.

"Winner gets Kimiko!"

"Wait, what?"

"Agreed."

"What?"

"When I win, Chase, you have to give me all the pictures you have of her, too."

"What!?"

"That won't be a problem because I will win, and then you have to give me all the pictures you have of her."

"WHAT!?"

"Fine!"

"And what are your terms, Kimiko?"

"I...when I win, you both give me all the pictures you have of me, and anything else you have of me or from me or that has anything to do with me."

"As you wish." Chase said before the Showdown began officially.

Clay, Omi, Raimundo, Ping Pong, Jack Spicer, Dojo, and Wuya were left staring at the place where Kimiko, Chase, and Shadow were moments before. Jack decided to break the silence between them. "Did my idol and his weirdo pseudo-daughter just get into a Showdown for rights to Kimiko?"

Ping Pong nodded. "Oui, I do believe that's what we just saw."
