3. Xiaolin and Heylin

A/N: Hey everyone! I am very glad to see that so many people favorited and reviewed my story. Once again, I want you guys to remember that it has been forever, since I've seen Xiaolin Showdown. So, some of the things may not be accurate and some characters may be a bit OOC. I am very sorry about that, but hey this is fanfic, and this is how this story is being played out in my head. Anyways, take care everyone and please review! ^_^

Disclaimer: I do not own Xiaolin Showdown or any of its original characters.

'Xiaolin and Heylin'

(Nayomi's POV)

Oh man, what on earth had I gotten myself into? Bride? I was supposed to be that wierdo's bride? Was he on drugs? Okay, I'll admit he was a handsome weirdo, but he was a major jerk. Who did he think he was to insult my cousin like that? I probably should have slapped that stupid smirk right off his face when I had the chance.

I simply sighed then looked at my skin and realized it was becoming red from the sunlight. If I stayed unprotected from the sun any longer, I would burn. Therefore, I quickly stood up from where I was sitting, and made my way towards JB-267. Once I reached him, I instantly extended my hand and said.

"JB-267, please hand me my umbrella."

JB-267 instantly handed over my umbrella and replied.

"Here you go master. Would you like anything else?"

I merely shook my head and replied.

"No thanks. Just hold on to that wierd thingamabob, whatever it is."

"Of course."

I simply gave him a small smile then moved towards the handsome boy that had been kind enough to let me borrow his awesome sword. As soon as I reached him, I gave him a bright smile and said.

"Hi, I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself properly. My name is Nayomi Spicer, and I just wanted to thank you for letting me borrow your sword. It is like the most amazing thing I have ever seen. It is just so beautiful and easy to use. Oh, and I'm sorry I broke apart mini-you, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do to teach people to not underestimate her."

I then handed him back his sword and waited for his reply. He cautiously took his sword back and stared at me skeptically. I simply adjusted my umbrella to where it covered my face and gave him a small smile. He simply stared at me for a bit longer then replied with a bright smile on his face.

"Nice to meet you, Nayomi. My name is Raimundo, but you can call me Rai."

He then turned towards the other three people standing behind him and proceeded to introduced them. He first pointed to a short, thin, Japanese girl with beautiful black hair, and said.

"She is Kimiko Tohomiko."

The pretty girl simply gave me a curt nod, but didn't say anything. Hm, she was just like me. Distrusting of the unknown. I liked her.

Rai then moved to a tall cowboy with a stocky build and piercing blue eyes. I state cowboy because of his huge and very obvious cowboy hat. Also, I know a cowboy when I see one. I had stayed with an aunt of mine in Texas during one summer vacation back when I was younger. So, I knew how to tell the difference from the fakes and the originals. Rai simply smiled at me and said.

"This here is Clay Bailey. He's from Texas."

I simply smiled and replied.

"I know. I know a true cowboy when I see one."

Clay instantly smiled and replied.

"You been?"

I simply laughed and replied with a smile.

"Lived there, actually. Probably one of the funest vacations I've ever had. Texas rocks! Don't Mess With Texas!"

I noticed how his smile only brightened and he instantly replied.

"That there's right! Don't Mess With Texas!"

I simply nodded then moved along to the last and final member of the group. He was ... small ... to say the least, but very unique. Just like Jack and me. The first obvious thing about him was that his skin was a strange shade of yellow. He also had a literal round, bald head and had nine white dots on his forehead. His eyes were a small black color, yet he had a bright smile on his face. I noticed Rai simply smile at me then say.

"Last, but not least, this here is Omi."

I simply knelt down to the little boy's size and smiled at him. I noticed how a deep blush instantly coated his cheeks. I simply laughed then said.

"Hi, there. I'm Nayomi Spicer. Nice to meet you."

The little boy completely surprised me by smiling back and replying fluently.

"It's nice to meet your acquaintance, Nayomi. I am Omi, the dragon of water, and the best fighter of the group."

I simply blinked at him then turned to Raimundo and noticed he was glaring at Omi. I stood up then asked Rai skeptically.

"He's the best fighter? He's just a child."

Rai was about to reply when Omi instantly jumped infront of me and exclaimed enthusiastically.

"Do not let my small stature fool you. I am a very capable opponent."

At that, I couldn't hold back my laugh and I instantly replied.

"Cocky much?"

The small boy simply stared at me with a look of pure confusion on his face. He scratched the back of his head and replied with a deep frown.

"I do not believe we possess any roosters at the moment."

He then turned to the pretty Japanese girl and asked.

"Right, Kimiko?"

The girl merely sweat dropped and shook her head at him. He nodded at her then turned back towards me and said.

"No, I do not believe I am 'cocky'. Since, I do not possess any roosters."

I really couldnt hold it back anymore, so I instantly knelt down to his level and embraced him in a huge one-armed hug. I instantly cuddled him to me and exclaimed.

"Oh my gosh! You are the most adorable thing ever! I just want to cuddle you!"

That's when I instantly heard my cousin yell.

"Nayomi, what are you doing? You can't be hugging, cheese-head! He's the enemy!"

I slowly released the small boy and watched in amusement as he fainted on the floor. I merely looked over at my cousin and said.

"What do you mean he's the enemy?"

I then picked up the fainted, little boy then showed him to Jack and asked.

"How can this cute little thing be our enemy? Look at him, he's so cute!"

Jack simply made a disgusted face and said.

"Don't make me vomit, Nayomi. Put cheese-head down and let's go home."

I simply sighed then handed the small boy to Clay and said.

"I'm sorry for making him faint."

He simply smiled at me and replied with his typical southern accent.

"Don't you worry bout him. It ain't your fault."

I gave him a small nod and was just about to walk away, when I noticed something green hiding in his hat. What was that? Was that a lizard? I took a small step back and stared at the animal more carefully. I was just about to comment, when the animal turned to stare at me and said.

"It's not polite to stare."

At that, I gave a full out scream and instantly jumped back. Jack instantly came to my side and said.

"What! What is it?"

I was too shocked to even formulate any words without sounding like a lunatic. Jack instantly turned to glare at Clay and yelled.

"What the hell did you do to my cousin, Bailey?"

Clay simply stared at Jack with an offended look on his face and replied angrily.

"I din't do anythin' to her, Spicer."

I simply moved one of my hands to cover my mouth, while the other clenched tightly to my umbrella. How ... how was it possible? The ... the lizard had talked! When I was finally able to find my voice, I stared directly at the lizard and stated bluntly.

"It talked."

Jack and Clay were instantly brought out of their confrontation and turned to stare at me. I merely kept my eyes directly on the lizard and said more loudly.

"It talked. The ... that ... lizard talked."

The lizard then surprised me by moving to sit on Clay's shoulder and stating slightly offended.

"I'll have you know that I am a dragon not a lizard. Calling a dragon a lizard is highly offensive."

At that, I couldn't hold it in, so I instantly yelled loudly.

"Holy freaking hell! It just talked again!"

I immediately turned to look at Jack and said.

"Tell me you just saw that! Did you hear it too? It talked, and said it was a freaking dragon! Holy hell!"

Jack simply rolled his eyes at me and replied.

"Yeah, I heard it, but he's not an 'it'. His name is Dojo, and he's a real dragon. He lives with the monks. He's like their pet or something."

I merely frowned then said.

"Ha, very funny. There's no such thing as dragons. The only dragon I know in existance is the Komodo Dragon, and it's not even a real dragon."

I then heard the green 'dragon' reply.

"That is correct. They are most defintely not real dragons."

I simply turned to stare at the small green lizard-thing, and said to my cousin.

"Besides, he's all little. Aren't dragons supposed to be like jumanjo monsters that fly?"

The little, green lizard huffed and stated.

"I take offense to that."

I merely smiled at him and replied.

"My apologies, but I am known to be quite blunt. So, I'm sorry if my bluntness offends you."

I then frowned and asked Jack.

"Wait a minute, you said he lives with monks. I thought he was Clay's pet."

Jack simply sighed and replied exasperated.

"He does live with monks."

He then pointed to Rai, Kimiko, Clay, and Omi, and said.

"They are monks. They live at the Xiaolin Temple. They're Xiaolin monks. You know, protecters of good, fighters against evil, and all of that other junk that makes me want to puke."

I then heard the pretty Japanese girl hiss at Jack.

"You make me want to puke."

At that, I instantly turned to glare at her and snapped.

"Watch your tongue."

She returned my glare and replied.

"Or, what?"

I instantly narrowed my eyes at her and replied seriously.

"Or, I'll cut it out. Don't be talking to my cousin like that. I don't know who you think you are, but if I hear you disrespect my cousin like that again, you and I are going to have big problems."

"Oh, yeah? Well ... "

That's when Rai instantly stepped in between us and said.

"Woah, woah, let's calm down. We're all on the same side here."

At that, Jack instantly interrupted and replied.

"No, we're not! I am never going to join you goody-two-shoes monks! I am Jack Spicer, Evil-Boy-Genius! Get that? Evil! I will never be good!"

My father may have not always been around for me, but when he was, he taught me a very important thing. Family is always first. Spicers' stick together, no matter what. Therefore, I took a step away from the monks and moved to stand by cousin. I then stared directly at Rai and replied seriously.

"I stick with family. I go where my cousin goes."

It was then that I realized Omi was finally awake. He instantly jumped off of Clay then ran towards me and exclaimed.

"No! Nayomi, you cannot be evil like Jack Spicer! You belong on the side of good!"

I simply gave him a small smile and replied.

"I belong with my family, little guy."

"But ... "

I simply knelt to his size then placed my finger gently to his lips and replied sincerely.

"And if that means that I have to be evil, and that I will be your enemy. Then I will just have to embrace that fact. My family is before anybody, even friendship."

With that, I stood up and patted him gently on the head. I then looked over at everyone and said.

"I really wish things were different, but Jack is family. Spicers' always stick together."

I then looked over at my cousin and said.

"Come on, Jack. I have an essay to work on."

With that, I turned my back on possibly the only friends I could have had during my stay here, and walked over to my robot. Now, that I thought of it. I should probably give JB-267 a proper name. I noticed Jack slowly following close behind me not saying anything. I merely motioned for JB-267 to lower himself to my level, so I could climb on him and he could take me home. I was about to get on when I instantly heard Kimiko say.

"Hey, where do you think you're going with the Wu?"

I merely turned to stare at her and asked with a smirk on my face.

"Oh, are you talking about the weird-looking toy? Hm, I haven't decided what I'm going to do with it yet. I may sell it to the best bidder. I may keep it for myself. Or, I just may destroy it. You know, my mom is a scientist. Therefore, I have access to some of the most dangerous chemicals and acids known to man. I just may decide to use one of my mom's acids and watch the stupid thing melt. I'm not sure yet. Why do you ask, Kimiko?"

I saw her face instantly turn red with rage and that only made my smirk grow. She then glared at me and yelled angrily.

"You can't destroy the Shen-Gong-Wu! Are you insane?"

I merely laughed and replied.

"In the membrane? Why, yes, I am. You aren't the first person to point something so blantly obvious."

At that, Jack actually laughed and said.

"Gosh, Nayomi, you're freaking nuts."

I merely turned to look at Jack and replied sarcastically.

"I am not nuts! I am just Coo-Coo for Coco-Puffs!"

Jack merely stared at me for a couple of seconds then instantly doubled over and busted out laughing. I simply smiled at him then turned to Kimiko and stated plainly.

"The toy stays with me. I got it fair and square. If you wanted it so badly, then you should've been woman enough to step up to that freaky cat girl and take it from her."

I then narrowed my eyes at her and said in challenging tone.

"And if you think you're tough enough to take it away from me, I would definitely love to see you try."

At that, I instantly noticed Clay step in between us and say.

"There be no need for that now."

He then turned to look at me and said.

"You defeated Katnappe fair and square. So, the Wu is yours to take, partner."

I simply smiled at him and said.

"Why, thank you, Clay."

I simply sent Kimiko a last parting smirk then moved back towards JB-267. He instantly extended his arms to me, and I easily clmibed on. I then looked over and realized Jack was already floating in the air with a look of impatience on his face. JB-267 slowly began to ascend, and merely held on tightly to my umbrella and to his head. I gave the Xiaolin monks one last smile and yelled.

"See you guys soon!"

With that, JB-267 quickly took into the air, in the direction to Jack's mansion, with Jack flying right beside us. I merely held my umbrella tightly with one hand and tried my hardest to cover myself from the sun. Once we arrived, JB-267 cautiously set me down on the ground, and instantly handed me the weird-looking toy. Jack landed shortly after and instantly said.

"Thanks Nayomi."

I merely looked over at him and asked skeptically.

"Why are you thanking me, Jack?"

He merely shrugged and replied casually.

"You know, for sticking up for me. Nobody's ever done that for me before. So, thanks."

I slowly moved towards him then gave him an awkward one-armed hug and stated seriously.

"You're like my brother, Jack. Of course, I'm going to defend you and stick up for you. You're my only cousin. You're honestly the only person I can call family. Oh, and Nana Spicer, of course. She's a major boss."

Jack slowly removed himself from my embrace then replied with a small smile.

"Yeah, she's a boss alright."

We stayed silent for several seconds, until I realized I was hungry. Therefore, I smiled at Jack and said.

"Hey, we should go inside and check if you're freaky clone actually made us lunch."

At that, Jack slowly turned to look at the house and replied.

"Yeah, come on. I'm hungry."

We quickly made our way inside the house, and were instantly floored at the delicious smell of grilled-cheese coming from the kitchen. I quickly threw my umbrella in the umbrella stand and dashed inside the kitchen As soon as I stepped inside, I was completely amazed to see Jack's freaky clone wearing a KISS THE COOK apron, while placing several grilled-cheese sandwiches on a plate. As soon as he saw me, he quickly ran towards me and exclaimed.

"See! Nayomi! See! I did just like you said! Please don't kill me now!"

I merely smiled at him and said.

"You did do as I asked, so you get to live ... at least for today."

If robots could actually turn pale, Jack's robot would have put snow to shame. I simply smirked at him and walked over to eat some sandwiches. I took one single bite, and if the robot hadn't attacked Jack and me. I would have probably hugged him. They were the most delicious grilled-cheese sandwiches in the world! I ate my sandwich slowly savoring in the delicious taste with each bite. Mmmm! They were so good! Jack took a sandwich as well, and cautiously took a bite out of it. Apparently my cousin's reaction was the same as mine, since he instantly began munching down on his sandwich.

We ate our sandwiches in peace, and simply enjoyed each others company. Once we finished, Jack stated that he needed to go work on creating more of his robots and that he would be downstairs. I simply gave him a small nod of acknowledgement, while a grabbed myself a small carton of apple juice. As soon as Jack was gone, I made my way towards my stack of books and pulled out my science homework first.

I then went to the bathroom and pulled out my Aunt's machine to tell her weight. I dragged it out into the hallway then carefully placed the ball Alex had given me on it. I watched it carefully until I was able to detect an approximate weight. I then picked up the ball and dragged the weight thing back into the bathroom. After I was done with that, I turned the weight into mass, and proceeded to go on with the experiment. Which consisted of creating a stupid ramp, determining three different speeds, three different accelerations, timing everything, and finding the distance traveled. I was about to lose my freaking mind with so much math and science.

When I was finally able to finish with everything, I realized that it was already becoming late afternoon. That's why I hated science so much. It took too much of my time. I decided I needed a well-deserved break. All of this science was making my brain hurt. Therefore, I decided to go check up on Jack and see how it was going with his robots.

I slowly made my way towards Jack lab and was relieved to see that his door was open. I cautiously walked inside and said.

"Jack! Where are you?"

I heard the sound of something hitting against something else followed by the sound of Jack saying.

"Dang it, Nayomi! You made me hit my head!"

I quickly made my way towards the sound of his voice and watched as Jack lay on the floor rubbing his head. I simply smiled at him and said.

"What up, cuz? Why are sleeping on the floor when you have a perfectly good bed upstairs?"

Jack merely glared at me and replied.

"Ha, ha, very funny. Did you need something, Nayomi? I'm kinda busy here."

I simply smiled at him and said seriously.

"Now that you mention it. There's some things I need to ask you."

Jack merely lifted himself from the floor then dusted off his jacket and said.

"Well, what would you like to know?"

I merely moved to sit on one his rolling chairs then stared directly at him and stated.

"You know how you said the Xiaolin monks are good?"

He gave me a small nod, and waited for me to continue. I simply sighed then asked bluntly.

"So, what does that make those that are against them? Are they like Anti-Xiaolin?"

Jack actually laughed at that and replied.

"That's funny, but no. It doesn't make them Anti-Xiaolin. Those that are against the Xiaolin are known as Heylin. You know good versus evil? The ones against the Xiaolin are essentially known as evil beings. Therefore, they are all known as the Heylin."

I merely nodded then replied.

"Oh, I get it now."

"Anymore questions?"

I quickly nodded and replied.

"Uh, of course, I have more questions. Who was the douche-bag that I told off, and the old hag with the big mouth?"

I noticed how Jack shifted uncomfortably from foot-to-foot, and replied seriously.

"You really shouldn't have talked to them like that, Nayomi. Especially, not Chase."

I merely rolled my eyes at him and replied.

"In my defense, that dude shouldn't have talked to you like that, and that old hag shouldn't have got into something that was none of her freaking business."

Jack merely shook his head at me and exclaimed loudly.

"You don't understand, Nayomi! That 'dude' is none other than Chase Young! Master of Tai-Chi and Prince of Darkness. He is the best and strongest Martial Artist in like the entire world! What were thinking in talking to him like that? He could've killed you!"

I merely watched as he paused to take a deep breath. Then I slowly placed my hands on my knees and asked casually.

"What about the loud-mouthed, old hag? Who is she?"

Jack stared at me as if I were some sort of idiot and yelled.

"Are you even listening to me, Nayomi? Chase could've killed you for your insolence!"

I simply gave him a small smile and replied sincerely.

"We may be family, Jack, but there's a huge thing that distinguishes us."

Jack instantly placed his hands on his hips and fumed.

"What?"

I then stared directly into his eyes and replied honestly.

"I'm not afraid to die."

I watched as Jack's jaw dropped to the floor, and he simply stared at me like I was insane. Was I insane? Maybe. My therapist did tell me I had psychopathic tendencies. I merely shrugged it off then asked again.

"So, who's the ugly red-head, Jack?"

I watched as Jack simply passed his hand roughly through his hair and replied.

"You're insane, Nayomi. I thought I was nuts, but you make me look like the sanest person on the planet. I'm going to call for a therapist tomorrow."

I merely rolled my eyes and replied.

"I already have a therapist, Jack. There's nothing wrong with me. I just live by the simple philosophy of not fearing the unavoidable. I know I can't escape death. So, why fear it? Don't fear the unavoidable. At least, that's my motto. Now, are you going to answer me, or what? Who's that Wuya chick? Or, whatever her name is."

Jack merely stared at me for a couple of seconds more then finally relented.

"Her name is Wuya and she's an ancient Heylin witch. She used to be very powerful, but she's not now because she doesn't have her powers."

I merely frowned and asked curiously.

"Why?"

Jack merely picked up a wrench from his lab table and moved to start working on his robot again. I waited for several seconds until I heard him reply.

"Because Chase is smart. He gave her her body back, but he didn't give her her powers because he doesn't trust her. I wish I had been that smart."

I merely frowned then asked.

"What do you mean?"

Jack simply continued on working then eventually replied.

"I was the one that released Wuya from her box, and she was the one that dragged me into this whole Xiaolin/Heylin mess. After I released her, she stayed here with me and made me help her track down the Shen-Gong-Wu. She lived here as a ghost for a long time. Then when Chase showed up she just up and left me. Although, she didn't leave without telling me exactly what she thought of me. That was a very ... interesting day. Anyway, ever since then she's been living with Chase, and she hasn't been here for a while now."

At that, I couldn't hold back my enraged response. So, I instantly stood and snarled angrily.

"That freaking witch simply used you then left you to go with that douche-bag? How dare she! How freaking dare she! I'll kill her! No! I'll make her beg me to kill her! Who the hell does she think she is? Oh, this will not go unpunished! She will pay even if I have to track her down and drag her all the way here! She will pay! I'll freaking make sure of it!"

Jack was merely staring at me from where he was working with a look of pure disbelief. He then seemed to snap out of it and replied calmly.

"Hey, have you finished your homework, Nayomi?"

At that, I paused then replied with a slight smile.

"I finished one."

"That doesn't count. Go finish all of it. You have school tomorrow."

I merely sighed then replied.

"Alright, I'll see you in the morning I guess."

Jack simply gave me a small nod then turned to work back on his robot. I slowly made me way up the stairs and simply thought about Jack's reactions to our conversation. He probably thought I was insane. I wasn't insane, though. I was a smart girl. I was a freaking hacker for pete's sake! Insane people can't be hackers, right? I merely shook that thought off and grabbed my English homework from the coffee table.

When I had first arrived here, I had quickly noticed a huge tree inside the estate, and I instantly loved it. Therefore, I decided to go outside and do my homework under the tree. Besides, Jack had several outside lights that could help me see to do my homework properly. I quietly opened the front door, and cautiously stepped out on to the porch. I had all of the supplies would need with me, while I made my way to the beautiful tree.

As soon as I reached it, I took a seat and instantly began on my essay. The prompt Alex had given me was ... If there was anything you could change about yourself, what would it be and why? Hm, anything that I could change, huh? I pondered on several ideas, until finally an idea came to me and I instantly let a huge smile spread across my face. I immediately began working on my outline, and writing down as many notes as I could before I forgot my idea. I worked on my essay for approximately two hours straight and was surprisingly pleased with my finished work.

As I re-read my essay, I came to realize that maybe I was a bit nuts in the head. Since, the thing that I would change about myself was my aversion to the sun. The reason was because that way I could train more during the daylight and be stronger to beat up people that made me mad. I slowly scratched the back of my head and commented aloud.

"Maybe I am a bit insane."

I then shook my head and placed my essay inside my English book. I stared out towards the horizon and realized it was quickly getting dark. I decided I wanted to stay out here for a bit more before I went inside. I slowly leaned my head against the tree then closed my eyes and simply listened to the noises around me. I was actually about to slip into a small nap when I heard the sound of a bird's caw. I slowly opened my eyes and looked over to see a rather large grey bird with red and black wings staring at me. I merely smiled at it then said.

"What up, bird? You lost or something?"

The bird merely tilted its head to the side and kept its beady eyes directly on me. I simply frowned at it strangely then asked sincerely.

"Are you cold?"

It was actually getting a bit chilly out here. At that, the bird cautiously moved more closely to me, but he seemed to be taking his time. He probably thought I was insane too. I merely removed my top shirt and left myself in only my under-shirt. I then spread it gently across my lap then smiled towards the pretty bird and said.

"Come on, I won't bite. I just want to take care of you."

The bird seemed to take that as an invitation then moved more quickly towards me. He was just about to reach me when I heard the sound of an extremely loud caw. I instantly turned towards the sound of the noise, and saw the same black crow from last night flying straight towards the red and black bird. The bird instantly took off flying away from me and disappeared somewhere within the forest nearby. I watched as the crow quickly chased after it, but the bird was quicker.

I merely sat there staring dumbly after them not even moving a muscle. The only thought going through my mind at the moment was ... That was freaking crazy! I stayed there sitting for several seconds until I watched the crow do a once around the estate then come and stand by my side. I simply looked down at it then stated bluntly.

"That was badass."

The crow merely stared up at me and didn't comment. I simply stared right back at it, until realization dawned on me. I simply laughed and replied.

"Oh, I get it now. You're territorial, right? You don't like it when I talk to other birds."

At that, the bird merely stared up at me and glared. He actually glared at me. Aw, he was so cute! I simply smiled at him and stated honestly.

"Well, just to let you know, I like you more. That other bird was pretty, but way too colorful for my taste. I like your color better. Black is my favorite color, you know."

He simply turned away from me and refused to even look at me. I merely grinned then said.

"Aw, don't be mad. You're my favorite. Hey, how about I cuddle you instead? It is getting kinda cold out here."

Not even a side glance. I then rolled my eyes and said.

"Fine, be cold then. I was just trying to be nice, but if you wanna ... "

He then surprised me by jumping onto my lap and getting himself comfortable in my shirt. I merely smiled then carefully wrapped the shirt around him and picked him up. I then cuddled him close to my chest and held him like that until I was sure he was warm. I carefully looked down at him and asked.

"Do you have somewhere to stay?"

It once again looked somewhere away from the estate and made a cawing sound. I merely nodded then said.

"You should probably head home. It looks like the wind is picking up."

With that, I lifted him up then stared directly into his weird golden eyes and caressed my cheek against his soft, fury face. I then unwrapped him from my shirt and allowed him to fly away back home. I simply waved after him, and watched as he gave me a slight nod in return.

As soon as he was out of sight, I stood from where I was sitting and began picking up all of my supplies. I was just about to walk towards the door and when I instantly saw it swing open to reveal a very freaked-out Jack. As soon as he saw me, he instantly glared at me an yelled.

"Nayomi, what do you think you're doing out here? Get back inside!"

I merely rolled my eyes and replied.

"Chill out, Jack. I just came to take a breath of fresh air. Oh, and I finished my homework too."

As I slowly made my way towards him, I heard him yell again.

"What are were you doing out here?"

I sighed and replied.

"Nothing, Jack. I just did my homework, relaxed for a bit, and met of couple of weird birds. That's all."

"Wierd birds? What do you mean weird birds? What did they look like?"

I simply shrugged and replied.

"One, was just a simple black crow. While, the other was a grey bird with red and black feathers. Why?"

Jack literally looked like he was about to pass out. I simply frowned then asked.

"Jack, are you okay? What's wrong?"

He instantly lurched towards me then grabbed me by my shoulders and yelled.

"I have to get you the hell out of here! You have to leave, right now! I can't believe I was so stupid! I should have never let uncle talk me into letting you stay! Was I high? It's dangerous here! You need to leave immediately!"

I simply stared at him like he was the lunatic and replied.

"Jack, what are you ... ?"

My sentence was left unfinished as I heard the loud crack, and felt a strong almost electrical current come from behind me. I slowly looked behind me, and saw none other than Chase Young himself. Well, wasn't this my lucky day? I simply sighed and replied annoyed.

"Listen, dude, if you're looking for the weird-looking toy let me just tell you that ... "

He simply stared at me and replied calmly.

"I am not here for the useless toy. I am here for something of greater importance to me."

I simply rolled my eyes and replied.

"Honestly, I'm not really in the mood to argue with arrogant bastards right now. So, please just go on inside and take whatever you want. I'm tired and I have school tomorrow."

With that, I turned away from him and was just about to attempt talking to Jack. When he instantly appeared right infront of me and stated firmy.

"Maybe I did not myself clear enough. I am here for someone of great importance to me, and that someone is you. Now, do not be difficult and come with me willingly. It will make this much easier and less aggrivating."

I simply stared at him like he was stupid and stated bluntly.

"Are you on crack? I'm not going anywhere with you. Take a hike."

I then attempted to move around him, when I instantly felt a freaking iron chain wrap around my wrist. I looked down at my hand and realized it was actaully just his hand holding on to me. What. The. Hell! This guy was freaking strong! He then quickly pulled me towards him and said.

"It seems this will have to be done the hard way."

At that, I quickly clenched my other hand into a tight fist and instantly swung it right at his stupid face. He effortlessly caught it then quickly pinned both of my hands behind my back. Then he looked over at Jack and said.

"Do not worry about your dear cousin, Spicer. She is in perfectly ... Well, let's just say I will not kill her and I will not allow anyone else to harm her as well."

With that, I felt him tighten his hold on me and I felt a strange electrical feeling surrounding my entire body. I instantly looked over at Jack and yelled.

"Run away, Jack! Save yourself! Don't look for me!"

And in a flash of lightning we were gone.

(Jack's POV)

How could I have let this happen? My only cousin had just been kidnapped right under my nose, and didn't even attempt to save her. How would I be able to save Nayomi? I was no fighter, and Chase could easly crush my robots without even breaking a sweat. What on earth was I going to do? I had to save Nayomi. She was my only cousin. She was like my little sister. I had to do something!

It was then that I aimlessly activated my helipack and went to the only place I knew would help me whether they wanted to or not. I clumsily landed on the outside and cautiously knocked on the grand door. Fearing that this one might also be spelled to crush me. I simply kept my head down and fought back the tears that threatened to spill. I waited for several seconds until the monks sleepily opened the door and simultaneously yelled.

"What do you want, Spicer?"

I simply sighed then looked up at them and replied honestly.

"I ... I didn't know where else to go. I ... I ... need your help."

That seemed to gain their attention. Therefore, they cautiously allowed me inside and all four them instantly folded their arms across their chests. I would have made fun of them hadn't my little sister just been kidnapped. I simply took a deep breath, and was just about to explain myself when cheese-head instantly said.

"Jack Spicer, where is your sister Nayomi?"

I merely looked down and whispered.

"That's why I'm here. Nayomi was ... taken."

At that, Pedrosa instantly stepped up and asked.

"What do you mean taken? As in kidnapped?"

I merely gave him a stiff nod, and I noticed how Pedrosa slightly frowned at that. He then shook his head and asked seriously.

"By who?"

I instantly clenched my hands together and replied.

"You're not going to believe me when I tell you."

At that, Bailey stepped up and said.

"Come on out wit' it, Spicer. Who took er'?"

It was then that cheese-head stepped up and said.

"Yes, please I wish to know who I will have to defeat in order to rescue pretty Nayomi."

I gave humorless laugh and replied.

"Even you can't take on the person who took Nayomi, cheese-head."

Pedrosa then stepped right up to me and yelled.

"Who was it, Spicer!"

I merely looked directly into each of their eyes then stated seriously.

"Chase. Chase Young kidnapped Nayomi."

The collective gasps and wide eyes told me they clearly weren't expecting that answer.
