GreatDarkNoodleKing has an announcement.
I'm going to be on a four day vacation staring Monday. So, if there are no updates at all on any of my stories, that's why. Sorry… I'm just going to be with my mom, brother, and my brother's best friend(who's kind of the third child). We're going to be gone for four days! Woo!
Chase: So, wait, does hat mean I'm going to be stuck waiting to see what happens in all of your crappy stories?
GDNK: Why, Chase, I'm glad you asked! Yes, you will have to wait! Everyone, you're gonna have to suck it up and wait for me to update! If I get even one comment that says to update while I'm gone, that user will be blocked. And the story might even be discontinued. ON ANY OF MY STORIES. Stand Out, Memories, Night Terrors. ALL OF THEM. If I get ONE comment saying to update while I SAID I'D BE GONE; there will be hell to pay.
Chase: Damn, are you serious? Or are you just being false-intimidating?
GDNK: I will kick royal ass if anyone tells me to update while I'm gone! RAWR!
Chase: Yup, that's serious…
Night Terrors
Kimiko needed to talk to someone, she was so frightened. It was Saturday night at midnight, Keiko was probably watching TV, but she had to try. Kimiko opened her laptop and searched through Chat room 13. Jack was on. He'd be good to talk to, he was so weird he often made her laugh and laughter always cheered her up.

DarkPrince: Kay.
JackHackedMyUN: Katnappe if a female cat goes into heat within ten miles of another male cat, will they be able to tell?
DarkPrince: Kim? Kim? You there?-
Kimiko had frozen when Chase signed on. She had been about to type more, but her entire body had stiffened and she had felt fear envelope her body.-
JackHackedMyUN: Kim? You mean Kimiko? She's not here…
DarkPrince: Yeah she is, she was telling me about a nightmare she had!
PrettyKitty: The cats will be able to tell
PrettyKitty: Who cares?
WuAskedU: Only a child would fear a dream…
Kimi: I don't feel so good…
Kimi signed out
DarkPrince: See?
JackHackedMyUN: What was with that?
DarkPrince: Oh no! My queen is sick! I must visit her and give her wishes of getting well and bring her flowers!
PrettyKitty: Seeing you would only make her worse…
DarkPrince: :p
JackHackedMyUN: WTF just happened…?-
Kimiko was in the bathroom, she had puked. Twice. Chase had been on, and now he knew she had had a nightmare. She felt awful.
Then she thought. He hadn't heard anything about what happened in her nightmare. She was technically safe. Why had so many evil villains been on? Was midnight on a Saturday night evil villain hour?
Kimiko found herself giggling at Chase's username. "Jack Hacked my UN," she muttered with a little giggle as she went into the kitchen and grabbed a ginger ale. She wouldn't put it past Jack to hack his username and use it as his own.
Speaking of Jack, he flew down and landed in front of Kimiko in the grassy area on the temple grounds. He had flowers and a get well card. She still felt sorta sick, but she was better now that she had ginger ale.
Raimundo had woken up and came down to find Jack with Kimiko. He immediately became jealous, but when he heard Jack asking her if her stomach felt better, his jealousy was washed away by worry.
Rai came and sat with her, caressing her hand and asking her what was wrong. She told him she had had a nightmare, and it had been so bad that it made her sick.
He and Jack both asked what had happened in the dream, but Kimiko said it was too gruesome for either of them. She didn't want them getting sick too. She lied. XP
After a little while, Jack left and Kimiko and Raimundo both went back to their respective beds and they each tried to sleep. Rai did, Kimiko remained awake all night. After that dream, she didn't want to know what else was in her head.
The next morning, Kimiko put her hair down and left it black. Her hair fell behind her shoulders in a mess of curls and waves and occasionally tangles. She put on a sleeveless blue Chinese designed shirt and a navy blue skirt that went down a little ways past mid-thigh. Raimundo came in and whistled at her before giving her a kiss and asking how she felt.
"Tired," she replied, brushing out her hair once more before heading outside to train. They had been training for about three hours before everybody finally went inside to eat breakfast.
Clay had the largest helping of everything meaty, as always. Omi had made himself something tha reminded Kimiko of pancakes, but she didn't want to ask what it was. Raimundo had an omelet with cheese and mushrooms in it. Kimiko hated mushrooms. She made herself Sushi; she felt like having it. She didn't know why. They didn't have fish eggs, so Kimiko just used the raw salmon and tuna they had. She cooked the meat a little bit, just to ensure she wouldn't get parasites and then she wrapped the rice and fish mat in the seaweed wrap.
While she was eating, Omi had swiped some away from her as he wanted to try it. Kimiko didn't really mind, she just liked his reaction. He said it was wondrous and immediately took three more sections of the roll she had cut up.
Kimiko washed all the dishes after everybody was done; Clay's plate was the most difficult to clean.
After she had finished and her pruny hands were beginning to return to normal, Dojo came out saying there was a new Wu.
"It's a Wu called the Heart's Secret," he informed everyone, "It lets the wielder manipulate the heart of another. Make them fall in love with someone, hate someone, or it lets you change what their heart desires. Oh! It also lets you see what the deepest desire of their heart is, even if they don't know what it is yet!" He sounded happy and said, "It's one of Dashi's more romantic Wu! It's pretty powerful too, messing with one's emotions is something evil villains love to do!"
Everyone had hopped onto him as he explained about the Wu.
"Let's just hope Jack doesn't get it, cuz he'll try and use it on me to make me his queen," Kimiko said with a shudder. Clay laughed, Omi patted her arm to show he cared, and Rai said he'd kill Spicer before he'd let him have this Wu.
They all landed in Scotland, Dojo informed them, and he said he had no idea where the Wu was. So they began looking.
The Wu would actually be pretty cool. She could see what Jack wanted most of all. Or Wuya. Or Katnappe. Or Chase! Katnappe's probably would involve cats if she had to guess. Wuya's would be to rule the world. Jack's would either be to rule the world or to have Kimiko as his wife. She shuddered at that. But Chase's? she first thought of ruling the world, but wasn't he technically ruling the world now? He was the most powerful evil villain, nobody was challenging his place on his throne… Maybe he already had what he wanted. What if he wanted to kill everyone? That sounded plausible. But then again, what did Chase like? Maybe he wanted everyone to be his cat slaves… Or maybe he just wanted to outlive very human being on the planet until he was the only living creature that could think for itself. Gah, Chase was so complicated! Maybe if she knew something about him, she'd have an idea bout what he wanted to do with his immortal life.
Wait, what was happening? Wasn't she supposed to be doing something?
Kimiko had the Gills Of Hamachi, and for some reason she felt she knew the Wu was in the water. She had nearly fallen in, but she put the gills on and called out their name.
Today must've been an off day for the Wu, instead of the usual fish-like human thing she would turn into, Kimiko found her legs fused together and her top half still fleshy and not scaly. The Wu had turned her into a mermaid.
That's weird, was there a comet or something? Why was she a mermaid? She could breath on land, but she couldn't really get around very well.
FOCUS!
She had to get the Wu, not let her mind wander off every time something confusing happened. Kimiko slid her body into the ice cold water and she immediately began swimming around. She could see everything, even though the deeper she got, the darker the water got. She found a nice rusted anchor on the bottom of the water and the remnants of a sunken ship that had nearly dissolved into nothing. She was swimming around near the ship when she noticed the carving of the mermaid on the front of the boat was holding something in its hands. It was the Wu! It looked like a heart being wrapped in chains and held by metal hands. It was the only metal that wasn't rusted.
Kimiko swam down and touched the Wu. Unfortunately, somebody else touched it as well.
Kimiko looked to find Chase staring at her underwater. His eyes were emotionless, but she had a feeling he needed air. Kimiko would fell terrible if she caused someone to drown! Wait, how was he able to stay up and actually swim with that heavy armor on?
Kimiko! Focus!
She frowned at him, but said they'd settle it at the surface. So they swam up to the surface of the water where Chase took in a deep breath and filled his deprived lungs.
"Chase, I challenge you to a Xiaolin Showdown! The game will be Find The Wu, and it'll be in the water! I wager my Gills of Hamachi against your Magician's Rabbit!" she yelled, pulling the gills off so she returned to normal.
Chase nodded his silent acceptance and the showdown changed the landscape dramatically. The guys were all dragged to see the showdown, and Kimiko wasn't surprised to see Hannibal, Jack, Wuya, Katnappe, and Tubbimura were all there. This was a pretty powerful Wu. If she lost this one, things would not be good.
So the showdown began and Kimiko immediately used the gills to swim around looking for the Wu. Kimiko found out the hard way what the Magician's Rabbit did. Chase used it on her. The Wu turned the opponent into a rabbit, literally a rabbit. Since the gills were still in use, she was still able to swim around looking for the Wu, but the rabbit fur made things a lot harder for her. Although she had to admit that being a rabbit made her feel cute. She could feel the adorable coming off her in waves. Rabbits were so cute!
Chase had gone up for air, so Kimiko went into overdrive looking for the Wu. She noticed what looked like chains and swam towards it. It turned out to be the Wu. But when she went to grab it, Chase ripped the gills off her and returned her to human form. She had her air ripped from her lungs, but she still managed to grab the Wu before he did.
When the showdown ended, Kimiko and Chase were put on the shore. Chase was on his feet, his entire body dripping the icy water off and forming a puddle beneath his feet. Kimiko was sitting on her butt, gasping for air and coughing up water. She had a large puddle forming underneath her and her clothes were clinging to her body. Bad day to not wear a thicker bra. Kimiko knew her bra straps were visible, and though her shirt was wrinkled with water and folds, she knew her nipples were slightly visible.
It was freezing! And she had just swam in ice water! She couldn't help how her body reacted to the environment!
Jack whistled at her, Raimundo punched him. Chase didn't speak, he just looked at her and the others. Katnappe grumbled angrily and left. Tubbimura left earlier, Muffinface needed food apparently. Wuya stood with her arms folded, looking very displeased. Hannibal was checking Kimiko out, she could tell that much by the way his eyes were hungrily looking her over. She wanted to puke. Being checked out by that hideous thing was NOT on her list of the things she wanted!
Wanted! Oh, yeah, she wanted to see Chase's deepest desires!
Kimiko pulled the Wu out and shouted, "Heart's Secret!" She had it pointed right at Chase. He looked shocked that she was using it on him, everybody looked shocked. Unfortunately, Dojo had failed to mention that once the Wu was in use, time froze around the people using it and nobody was able to move or d anything to stop the wielder.
Kimiko was walking through a dark hallway, there were doors floating around her, each had different colors and designs on them. There was one door that she saw was black, and was on fire. She didn't even want to think of what was inside. Kimiko was finally led to a room with files all over the place. Each file was labeled.
She found one labeled 'fear', another labeled 'love' and then she found one labeled 'fetishes'. That one stopped her. She just stood there, looking at the file. Chase had fetishes? Probably cat based, right? Okay, now she was curious about his fetishes.
She opened the file and the pictures inside it began moving, playing for her the scenes of Chase's fetishes. There were chains, whips, torture devices, all sorts of gross evil villain fetishes that didn't really surprise her. But then a smell wafted out of the file; it smelled like her perfume! That was weird, but she didn't find anything in the file about perfume being one of his fetishes, so she assumed she had imagined the smell.
Kimiko then went ahead and opened the file labeled fear.
Inside it showed an obituary with Chase's name written on it. There was an image of a funeral service for Chase, there was a moving picture of Chase being lowered into the ground, still alive. He was in a straight-jacket and was squirming as unseen people lowered him into the earth and then began throwing dirt on him.
Kimiko couldn't look at it any longer. She closed the file and set it down, closing her eyes. Chase feared death; all kinds. Buried alive, tortured to death, old age, poisoned, car wreck, fire, drowning, everything.
Kimiko found another file labeled 'heart's desires'. She didn't feel comfortable looking into the file labeled 'love'. That was something she didn't want to pry into, as she had a feeling that file would frighten her more than 'fear' had. Although, finding out who and what Chase loved would be interesting information, Kimiko didn't feel it was right to see that.
She just wanted to find out some information on Chase, maybe then she'd understand him a little more.
She opened the file and of course, the first thing she saw was Chase standing on the edge of a cliff, commanding fire and lava to do his bidding as he killed thousands in a small village and ruled the world. That one was a 'no duh' vision. She continued looking through and she eventually found some different desires. Torture and receiving eternal glory had been the ones following the ruling the world with an iron fist one.
She found a desire that at first seemed just like the first one. Chase was standing on the edge of the cliff, lava was flowing into the village below him, killing the villagers, but after killing them, Chase turned to look at someone. Kimiko saw a woman walk to his side. She had long black hair that was pin straight, perfect Porcelain skin, and sky blue eyes. She was holding an infant child in one arm and she held Chase's hand with her free one. It finally dawned on Kimiko who the woman was. The woman stood on her toes and placed a peck on Chase's lips before letting go of his hand and swishing her hand out and letting fire explode from her fingertips to burn the entire forest before them.
The woman was her.
Kimiko slammed the file closed. Chase wanted to rule the world with her as his queen! Her heart was racing, she had to have been dreaming, or at least imagining things. There was no way. That had to have been Jack's desire; Jack always said he wanted her as his queen. Maybe Kimiko had imagined it. She kept telling herself that she had.
Kimiko couldn't bring herself to open any more files. Her hands were trembling so violently that she would drop the files when she tried to open them.
So she gave up and discontinued the use of the Wu. She felt herself return to her body on the shore.
She looked up at Chase, her entire body going into a miniature seizure as the fear and cold hit each other.
Raimundo hurried to her side and held her in his arms. He didn't know what Kimiko had seen, but obviously it had left its mark. Wuya said she wasn't surprised Kimiko couldn't handle what was in Chase's head. But she truthfully was quite shocked to see how Kimiko reacted. Jack stared in disbelief, he wondered what she had seen, he then shouted that question out.
Omi and Clay went to her side with Raimundo, they were both more worried than curious. Kimiko was family. And if something frightened her like this, they had to be there to help her.
Chase stared at Kimiko, fear evident in his golden eyes. He had no idea what she had seen, but judging by her reaction, it was something he had wanted to keep a secret. He swallowed the disgusting emotion and his Poker Face melted back in place. Whatever she had seen, he could deal with one person knowing about. As long as she didn't tell anyone, he would be fine.
He then jumped off and left with Wuya as quickly as possible.
Jack hurried to Kimiko's side with the others. He had feelings for her, so of course he was worried. But the way Kimiko was acting didn't scare him enough to not still be the insensitive Jack he was.
"What'd you see?" He asked, receiving a punch from Raimundo and a glare from Clay and Omi.
Kimiko only shook her head and held Rai tighter. She couldn't bring herself to speak; she was so frightened.
The guys brought her back to the temple and Clay made her some herbal tea that was supposed to calm her nerves. Kimiko drank it and thanked him. The guys left her alone to relax and get some sleep. They said if there was a new Wu they wouldn't wake her up. The said she needed rest.

Cake-O: HEY! Kim! Wut up?Kimi: I'm pretty sure my nerves are shot, that's all…
Cake-O: Uh oh, what happened? Did someone wash you favorite Tee with a blue item?
Kimi: No…
Cake-O: Okay, that's good. That would ruin it and turn the entire design on it an ugly brownish purple.
Kimi: Okay then…
Cake-O: So what happened?
Kimi: I think you might've been right about Chase…
Cake-O: the hot part? Or… which part?Kimi: the him wanting to be where I sleep part.
Cake-O: What makes you so sure? I'm never right about this stuff, you know that. That guy I told you about? He was a seven year old kid. Not hot. Romance is something I love, I'm just a terrible judge…
Kimi: I'm sorry about that guy… But I'm positive you were right about him.
Cake-O: Do share!
Kimi: We got a Wu today that lets you see the deepest desires of someone's hearts…
Cake-O: Useful…
Kimi: I used it on Chase. And what I saw proves you were right…
Cake-O: What'd you see?
Kimi: I saw him ruling the world first, that didn't really surprise me. But after he killed a village, a woman with black hair and sky blue eyes walked up to him. She had a baby in her arms and she released fire from her fingers and burned the forest before them.
Cake-O: Black hair? Blue yes? Burning stuff? OMFGZ IT'S YOU!
Kimi: I know… That's what scares me…
Cake-O: I was actually right about him? OMG. No way…!
Kimi: Yeah, you were right about him… but Keiko, what do I do? If he likes me, what am I supposed to do? I didn't wanna find that out, I just wanted to know something about him!
Cake-O: Well you should talk to him about it. I think that's your best option. Maybe you could talk it out with him… He might explain what you saw…
Kimi: Okay… But when am I gonna get to talk to him?
Cake-O: I dunno…
Kimi: Oh, he'll be on around midnight, I think!
Cake-O: Really?
Kimi: Yeah. I'll private message him and ask him about it. Although…
Cake-O: What? Don't you start having second thoughts!
Kimi: He's never really talked to me before… He said he loved my perfume when I was pretending to be Jack… But that was so he could let me know he knew it was me… What if he tries to not speak to me…?
Cake-O: He's never talked to you?
Kimi: No. Even today during the showdown, he didn't say a word to me! Is he like, afraid of me?
Cake-O: Maybe he doesn't know how to talk to girls he likes…
Kimi: …..I still can't get the whole 'Chase likes me' through my head….
Cake-O: Well get used to it! Mister sexy face likes you and wants to make you his queen!
Kimi: LOL, you make that sound funny…!
Cake-O: That's my job!-
Kimiko laid down, setting an alarm on her phone for eleven thirty. She had to see if he was going to tell her about it.

DarkPrince: I just thought it was weird that she freaked out.
PrettyKitty: I'm kinda curious too, but I don't really care…

Kimi: He really just did that, didn't he…
DarkPrince: Yup!
PrettyKitty: Looks like it!
WuAskedU: Chase probably doesn't want you talking to him about today…
DarkPrince: What happened anyway?
Kimi: That's personal. I didn't even look at all of Chase's stuff… If I told you, that would be insulting Chase's privacy…
DarkPrince: Aw come on!
PrettyKitty: But you looked at his heart's desires!
Kimi: Not-
WuAskedU: What's the big deal? You saw what he wanted…
Kimi: -_- Can I finish?
DarkPrince: Sure!
Kimi: … I didn't look at all of Chase's wants. There were some things I felt were too personal to open up and look at. It would've been rude to look at everything…
DarkPrince: Well, what DID you open?
WuAskedU: And what did you see?
Kimi: I opened fears, desires, and fetishes.
PrettyKitty: FESTISHES?
DarkPrince: FETISHES?
WuAskedU: FETISHES?
Kimi: Yeah… I saw it and was curious…
DarkPrince: What was in it?
Kimi: Torture devices…
WuAskedU: That's not surprising…
PrettyKitty: What was his fear?
Kimi: Not telling. That's personal stuff Chase didn't want anyone to see. I probably shouldn't have opened it…

DarkPrince: No problem!
Kimi signed out-
Kimiko went to bed, snuggling down and going to sleep.
Raimundo was in bed with Kimiko. The two of them were completely naked and it was obvious they were making love.
Kimiko had moaned loudly and had closed her eyes for a brief moment.
She shouted out for Chase to give her more.
As soon as she shouted, she opened her eyes in shock at her own voice.
Chase was there in place of Raimundo now, giving her the pleasure she so desperately wanted from him and him alone.
Kimiko woke with a start. Her whole body was shaking viciously and she felt she desperately needed a bath. She messaged Jack asking if Chase had said anything and when Jack said Chase wasn't talking to them about her, she went to bathe the dream away.
OMG Kimiko's dream is so dirty! Wow this was a long chapter! I can tell, it's a long one… AWESOME!
