Chapter Three: A Fatal Attraction

After a vigorous day of training everybody was tired, well not exactly everyone. Isabelle was lying on the grass looking up at the stars.

Isabelle heard a noise, which startled her to sit up. Isabelle turned around to see Raimundo there with Ninja Fred. Raimundo asked, "Why are you still up?" while rubbing his eyes and yawned.

Isabelle answered, "I just can't sleep at the moment, so I am just watching the stars."

Raimundo asked, "Why can't you sleep?"

Isabelle answered, "Too much on my mind, the stars soothe my mind and make it calm."

Raimundo asked, "What is on your mind?"

Isabelle answered, "The village, my parents and many other things."

Raimundo said, "Maybe it was your destiny to come with us, for your parents to be killed, don't take any offence but maybe now that your with us you can find the answers to your questions, you were mostly likely not to find your answers in the village."

Isabelle replied, "I guess your right, but why are you awake?"

Raimundo answered, "Well I heard you come out here, and kind of followed you."

Isabelle asked, "Can I ask you something?"

Raimundo answered, "Yeah sure."

Isabelle asked, "Have you ever felt so alone, like there was nobody in the world that cares for you?"

Raimundo answered, "Yeah I have."

Isabelle said, "Back in the village I used to feel like that all the time, it was like I was the worst person in the world back there."

Raimundo replied, "Well I was the last Xiaolin Warrior to acquire the apprentice status before I did become apprentice I felt like the rest of the group didn't give me the full credit I deserved. I eventually received the respect from my team mates when I did become apprentice."

Isabelle said, "If my mother and father were still in the village, I would have been treated differently. Why don't you sit on the grass it's more comfortable than standing by the way?"

Raimundo replied, "Umm, sure" and sat on the grass next to Isabelle.

Isabelle said while tilting her head back, "Look at the stars, its calms your mind down, it like a trance but you are still conscience."

Raimundo tilted his head back and said, "You're right, it is a soothing sight."

Tears started falling out of Isabelle's eyes and Raimundo saw and asked, "What's wrong?"

Isabelle replied, "I wish mother and father was still alive, they treated me like royalty, I swear that when I find out whom their killer is I going to kill them over my dead body."

Raimundo asked, "Do you think that you mother wants you to kill her killer?"

Isabelle replied, "No, but I feel it's the best thing to do."

Raimundo replied, "I think your parents are protecting you especially from doing stupid things."

Isabelle asked, "What makes you think, that they are protecting me?"

Raimundo answered, "When I was younger I was told that the people that want to protect you the most when passed on will protect you."

Isabelle replied, "Yeah, you are right, they were always over-protective of me."

Raimundo asked, "Do you still feel lonely?"

Isabelle replied, "Why do you ask?"

Raimundo got defensive and replied, "No reason at all."

Isabelle replied shyly, "No, you and your friend have made me feel wanted again, now I feel like people do care what happens to me."

Raimundo replied, "That's good."

Isabelle yawned and said, "Well I better head off to bed, I am tired."

Just as Isabelle stood up Raimundo grabbed her hand and said, "Wait, please." Raimundo stood up."

Isabelle confused asked, "Why?"

Raimundo put his other hand on her other arm and gently kissed her. Isabelle was flustered and did not know how to react as this was her first kiss. Isabelle said, "Well we better go, we might get into trouble if we stay out longer." Raimundo and Isabelle walked back to the temple and went to bed.

Neither of them was aware that Kimiko was watching them from behind a bush.

----The Next Day----

It was breakfast time and Kimiko just got out of bed and went to the room where everybody ate.

Raimundo smiled at Kimiko and said, "Hey Kimiko you're finally up."

Kimiko ignored him, and then Clay said, "Howdy Kimiko."

Kimiko replied to Clay, "Good morning Clay."

Raimundo got a little mad and said, "I said hello to you as well."

Kimiko just ignored Raimundo again, sat down and said, "Hey Omi."

Omi replied, "Hello to you Kimiko how was your sleep?"

Kimiko answered, "It was fine, Omi."

Raimundo yelled, "Why are you ignoring me?"

Everybody went silent. Isabelle came through the door with breakfast in her hands.

Isabelle said, "Is everybody hungry, I made bacon and eggs."

Kimiko stood up and said very uncouthly, "You know what, I'm not hungry." She stormed out of the room.

Raimundo asked, "What's her problem?" Everybody shrugged.

Isabelle put the food on the table, while she had a concerning look on her face.

Everybody started eating. Omi stated, "This food is the best I have had, where did you learn to cook like this?" Omi asked as he saw her concerning face, "What is troubling you, Isabelle?"

Isabelle replied, "I'm concerned for Kimiko, she seems disturbed."

Omi said, "You didn't answer the question about the food."

Raimundo butted in and said, "Kimiko is more important that finding out why somebody is a good cook. I'm concerned too, she ignored me and I don't have a clue why."

Omi replied, "I don't think anybody knows why Kimiko is acting this way."

Dojo started shaking violently and said, "Another Shen Gong Wu has revealed itself." Dojo then turned into a 40-foot dragon.

Clay offered, "I will go get Kimiko."

Clay came back two minutes later with Kimiko who had the ancient scroll. Clay got on Dojo, Raimundo offered his hand to help Kimiko up but Kimiko said angrily, "I don't need your help up Raimundo, I can get up fine."

Kimiko got on Dojo, opened the ancient scroll, and said, "It's known as the Desired Vial, it allows you to see what the person truly desires when you point it at them."

The Desired Vial was in Spain, in Madrid. The Desired Vial just looked like a vial with water in it but the Xiaolin Warriors knew that the water in the vial has mystic properties. As the warriors were about to get the vial they heard a voice behind them. The voice belonged to Jack who said, "Jack, evil boy genesis has arrived."

Isabelle shouted at Jack who was flying due to his heli-bot, "HOW THE BLOODY HELL CAN YOU CALL YOURSELF AN EVIL GENESIS, ONE YOU ARE CRY BABY AND TWO WHAT YOUR BOTS GET DEFEATED EVERYTIME."

Jack shouted back, "THEY DO NOT, JACK BOTS ATTACK." Pointing out his finger to the Xiaolin Warriors and the Jack Bots attacked. Within five seconds they were all defeated, Jack said, "No fair."

Jack flew over to the Desired Vial, Kimiko and Isabelle jumped at the same time to get the Vial. All three end up touching the Vial, Kimiko said, "I challenge Jack and Isabelle to a Showdown Trio."

Jack said, "But she is your team mate."

Isabelle replied, "It wouldn't be fair two against one now would it?"

Jack answered, "I guess not, I wager the Jet Bootsu."

Isabelle said, "I wager the Dragon Bracelet."

Kimiko said, "I wager the Tangle Web Comb, the Xiaolin Showdown will be a fight, last one standing will be the victor, to forfeit call out 'I am a Momma's boy.'" Kimiko stared at Jack.

The ground started shaking make the area look like a colosseum. Kimiko, Isabelle and Jack said in unison, "Gong Yi Tan Pai."

Kimiko, Isabelle and Jack stood in a triangle formation, staring at one another. Isabelle then turned her gaze to Jack who said in a girly voice, "Why are you staring at me, it's creeping me out."

Isabelle smirked and said, "Because Jack, weaklings fall first." Isabelle then whipped out the Dashi's Blade.

Jack remembering what happened last time when she wield a sword, even though it was wooden made him very scared, Jack thought 'The last time it wasn't a real sword and that did a lot of damage, I don't want to see what happens with a real sword.' Jack then ran away screaming, "I am a momma's boy."

Isabelle then stared at Kimiko and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Kimiko answered, "I want to fight you."

Isabelle surprised asked, "But W…Why?"

Kimiko replied, "Because, I want to test your skills, there is also another reason."

Isabelle asked, "What is that reason?"

Kimiko answered, "You could be working for the Heylin side."

Isabelle asked, "What gave you that idea?"

Kimiko answered, "Anybody who ends up with us Xiaolin Warriors always works for the Heylin side."

Omi on the sidelines said, "You know Kimiko has a point, first there was Vlad who was working for Jack and Jermaine who without knowing was working for Chase Young."

Isabelle replied with determination in her voice, "I would never work for an evil side, which means I will be working for her, my goal is to kill her then I will find true peace, even if it means sacrificing myself."

Isabelle put the Dashi's Blade back into its sheath and said, "I am not going to use the Dashi's Blade, which was to scare Jack into surrendering, if I use a Shen-Gong-Wu it will be the Dragon Bracelet."

Omi smiled and said, "Maybe now we can see what the Dragon Bracelet can do."

Kimiko held out the tangle web comb and shouted, "Tangle Web Comb." The Tangle Web Comb caused Isabelle who struggled to escape. Kimiko jumped towards Isabelle and kicked her. Isabelle went flying for about ten metres before she landed back on the ground.

Isabelle said, "Ouch that hurt."

Kimiko replied, "Well it isn't supposed to tickle." Kimiko started walking towards Isabelle.

Isabelle replied smiling, "Neither is this." Isabelle jumped up onto her feet and punched Kimiko in the face. Kimiko fell to the ground.

Isabelle said, "I don't want to hurt you anymore."

Kimiko replied while getting up, "I want to fight you."

Isabelle replied slapping her, "Snap out of it, you are being selfish, look at our friends they don't want us to fight, why do you want to fight me so badly anyway."

Kimiko stood up, got out the Star Hanabi out, and said, "I will not give-up, Star Hanabi Fire."

Isabelle replied, "Nice try, Dragon Bracelet."

Kimiko asked stunned, "But, how are you unscathed?"

Isabelle answered, "By using the power of the Dragon Bracelet, just give up."

Kimiko angrily replied, "There is no way I am saying I am a momma's boy."

Isabelle replied, "You just said it."

Kimiko said, "Crap."

The Xiaolin Showdown was over. Isabelle handed the Jet Bootsu and the Tangled Web Comb to Kimiko. Raimundo, Omi and Clay ran over to the girls while Dojo was sitting on Clay's hat. Omi asked, "How come you are not hurt from Kimiko's attack?"

Isabelle answered, "The Dragon Bracelet puts a shield around the person who is wearing it."

Isabelle turned and faced Kimiko, smiled while holding up the Desired Vial in front of Kimiko's face and said, "So this is the Desired Vial." Activating the Shen-Gong-Wu.

What Isabelle saw was not a pretty sight. Isabelle thought to herself, 'No wonder she is ignoring Raimundo, well I better be careful and I better keep smiling or they will know something is wrong.'

Kimiko said, "Well we better go." Dojo grew into a 40-foot dragon and everybody hopped on. Dojo flew away.

About 200 metres away somebody was watching the whole Xiaolin Showdown said to themself, "I finally found you; it won't be long now until you are in my grasp and dead."
