I don't own Xiaolin Showdown
Heather woke up. She glanced at the clock that was sitting on top of Raimundo's night table. It was four in the morning. She heard the quietness around her. There was Clay's loud snoring. She hated snorers. She found them stupid and repulsive. She reached down and took off her high-heel white sparkly boots. She got up to her feet and walked as quiet as a cat around the temple. She got out of Raimundo's room and walked to the kitchen of the temple. She opened the fridge and saw a bottle of water that was stored there.
She reached out and took the bottle in her hand. When she clutched the bottle, it was cold and moist. Just what she needed. She failed to notice a light flicker.
"So you're awake now?" a female voice asked her. Heather jumped in the air and turned around.
"You scared the crap out of me," Heather said as she put a hand on her chest. She quickly unscrewed the cap of the bottle on drank the cold water that was wetting her dry throat.
"Uh-huh, yeah, sure," Kimiko said as she put her hands on her hips. She stared at Heather while Heather stared back at her. She knew that there was something up with this girl. She had been really pissed when Kimiko had broken her relaxation moment. She had also seemed kind of sweet towards Raimundo too. When he jumped in to stop the two of them from fighting, she noticed Heather's expression soften.
Was this some kind of jealousy that she was experiencing right now? No way Kimiko thought. But why am I worried about this girl and Raimundo?
"Well can I help you with something?" Heather arrogantly asked her.
"No," Kimiko said as she crossed her arms overr her chest, "nothing," she said as she turned around and walked out of the kitchen.
Heather looked after her. She did not want to have an enemy like her. Then again, she did not want her as a friend at all. Like, what the hell is her problem? she thought. She shook her head at the thought of Kimiko. She was going to get her later, right now, she had to take care of something important.
When she got out of the temple, a cool fresh air surrounded her. In her point of view, this place was like heaven which was soon going to be diminished. She smiled at the thought of that. She sat down on a stair and wondered at how she was going to do this. There had to be a way to do it without anybody finding out. So, it was one against four. Sometimes an out numberd person can achieve something if they were smart.
Heather was smart but she did not know how to start out a plan. She needed to ponder about this. She took out a cigarette from her pocket and lit it. She took a sip of it and blew it in the air. She watched the puff of smoke circling around the air and then disapparing.
"Welcome," she heard a gently voice behind her.
Heather quickly turned around and looked. Master Fung was standing right there behind her. The guy was like a magician. He could appear at random places without you knowing about where he was going to appear and when. Heather got up to her feet. She threw the cigarette to the ground and stomped it with her foot. She didn't care that she was barefooted. All she cared was that she didn't want to be discovered for who she really was.
"Hello," Heather kindly waved at Master Fung. She tried to fight the urge of yelling anf swearing at him for interrupting her peaceful moment.
"What are you doing here?" he asked her as he approached her.
"Oh I was found by one of the kids that train here. See, I got lost and I found myself here," Heather explained.
"Who was it that bought you here?" he asked her.
"Um, one of the people that train here," Heather said again. Is he deaf or something? she asked herself. "I already told you that."
"My apologies then," Master Fung said as he did a small bow in front of her. "What is your name?"
"Heather," she said.
"And where do you come from Heather?" he asked her.
"Well a little farther away from here," Heather said as she shook her head to the left, indicating that she lived a far dstance from the temple. "How I wound up here, I don't know." She did a dramatic sigh and sat down on the steps again,"I don't know how to find my way back home."
"You are welcome to stay here until we locate you family," Master Fung told her.
"Well thanks," Heather said. Master Fung gave her a smile and walked away from her. When he was out of sight, Heather blew a raspberry. She did not need help from him or from anybody to locate her family. She didn't have any, so good luck on that.
Her eyes suddenly fell on the tall temple. Curiosity filling up her mind, she got up from the stair and approached the temple. When she approached it, she saw that there was a huge lock that locked the handles of the door. Heatehr frowned at the door. She tried pulling the door but it made too much noise and it would wake the Xiaolin Losers up. She had to find another technique to get herself in there.
She looked to her left and right to see if she was being followed. She checked her watch. It was only four thirty. She had plenty of time to go and come back. Then again, she had made a commitment to this operation and she was going to achieve it, no matter what.
