Chapter 3

As she floated in cyber space she looked towards Chase, he looked up and towards Kimiko whilst looking her directly in the eyes. She didn't realized how this could be possible as she was inside his mind but right now at this moment he was looking her dead in the eyes. His golden eyes into her blue ones this made her shiver and quickly exit out of his mind.

"W-what was that" questioned Kimiko

She began to think about the matter at hand, with the dream from the night before and now Chase discovering her. As questions kept flooding her mind but Kimiko having no answers to them, she flopped on the ground not knowing what to do. At that moment a terrified dragon with three of Kimiko's best friends came racing up to her.

"Dojo what's the matter" panicked Kimiko although she already knew what he was going to say.

"B-big disaster" cried Dojo scratching his rear end which had a very unsightly rash on it.

"Dojo what's a big disaster" asked Kimiko who was genuinely panicking about Dojo's condition. She didn't know that this Shen Gong Wu would be this big a problem.

"I-it's the G-Grim R-R-Reaper" stuttered Dojo who was bawling around on the ground.

"Grim Reaper" echoed Kimiko, who didn't like to see Dojo like this. "What's he talking about, I can't understand him whilst he's like this" Kimiko asked towards the three boys.

"Well apparently its this ultra powerful Shen Gong Wu that could kill us all" explained Raimundo the leader who seemed to have a painfully worried look on his face.

"Yes I think Kimiko should sit this one in" remarked Omi who still hasn't gotten the hang of street slang. "As Kimiko is a girl, and girls can not deal with danger" Kimiko lost in thought paid no attention to Omi's sexist remark about her being a girl.

"Sit this one out" Raimundo answered angrily by his mistake.

"Sit out of were" Omi asked without knowing the proper response.

"Never mind Omi" responded Raimundo in a cross manner, since Raimundo is Omi's translator naturally. Aswell as Clays half witted remarks about pigs and buffalos would be just as hard to understand as Omi.

"What about this Shen Gong Wu?" questioned Kimiko acting dumbly because she really would rather keep her previous travels into a certain lizards mind a secret.

"T-This Sheng Gong Wu, is capable of taking lives mortal and immortal" explained Dojo whilst he was unravelling the scroll of the Shen Gong Wu.

On the Scroll it showed one figure holding a small statue of what looked like a Grim Reaper. A second figure then appeared in a puff of smoke opposite to the first figure, the first figure then held out its arms with the Shen Gong Wu pointed out towards the second figure. The second figure then dropped to the ground, as this scene played out on the scroll it widened Kimiko's eyes and made her gasp.

"This Wu seems mighty bad" Contemplated Clay, flicking his hat upwards to reveal the one eye that wasn't covered by his blonde hair.

"Well then lets stop talking and go to get it" Brightened Raimundo giving a thumbs up towards the rest of the group.

"We may have a problem" Wheezed Dojo as he carried on itching the rash which was expanding around his body at a rapid pace.

"What's up partner" asked Clay, reaching down to pick up the scaly lizard creature. Which by now half of his scales have already been pealed of due to the spreading rash.

"This rash is irritating, it has already progressed down my arms. I don't think I can fly you to the Wu" replied Dojo continuing his constant scratching whilst on top of Clays hat. Although the cowboy being less than pleased as scales floated down from where Dojo remained on his hat.

"Don't worry Dojo we'll use the Silver Manta Ray" reassured Raimundo "I'll go get it from the vault" Raimundo started to make his way towards the vault, until Kimiko stood in his way.

"U-um R-rai, i'll go get the Silver Manta Ray" stuttered Kimiko as she started backing away towards the vault, then without another word she quickly ran away from the rest of the group leaving nothing but a dust cloud in her place and her friends speechless.

After Kimiko had passed the corner avoiding her friends gazes she started to walk towards the vault. Her thoughts all getting mumbled in her head… Chase, The Wu, Her Dream, Chase. She stopped for a moment before thinking 'Wait did I just think Chase, twice… no, no it must've been a mistake' as her thoughts concluded she continued to walk the rest of the way towards the vault. Since she wasn't really paying much attention to her surroundings she bumped into a person who was standing in front of her. Kimiko gazed up to whoever she had just bumped into as her eyes grew wide and a horrific look covered her face, standing in front of her was no one other than Chase Young.

"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH" screamed Kimiko as she suddenly fell to the floor and tried to get as far from the Demonic Monster as she could. Suddenly she felt his arms on her shoulder shaking her, then she snapped out of her trance and there in front of her replacing Chase was Master Fung.

"Kimiko, is something the matter" asked Master Fung with a concerned expression placed upon his face.

"Ummm…uh…uh" stuttered Kimiko standing up, she looked around to gather her surroundings and realized she must have been day dreaming. As she dusted a few bits of dust from her robes she looked back up towards Master Fung. "I-I have to get going… Haha need to get the Silver Manta Ray, bye" and with that she started to walk away heading towards her first destination, the vault.

As Kimiko descended down the stairs to the vault her thoughts somewhere else making her stumble a few times, which could have made her fall to the darkness of the bottom of the vault. She eventually stopped in front of the compartment that held the Silver Manta Ray, as she slightly pressed the compartment and it opened she grabbed it. She also decided to grab the Falcon's Eye for added precaution, after she retrieved it she slipped the Falcon's Eye in her robes and left.

xXx

As the Silver Manta Ray swiftly cruised over the Atlantic Ocean the four monks began talking about there next destination… and what would await them.

"Dojo were are we heading" asked Raimundo bored from having to travel over 8000 miles in order to get this Wu.

Dojo who tagged along so that he could show the young monks the way to the Wu simply replied "Its in Yucatan"

"Yucatan?" questioned Raimundo who had a puzzled look on his face as he was scratching his head like Dojo was speaking another language.

"It's a continent in Mexico" replied Kimiko tapping a few things on her PDA pulling up a image as she showed it to Raimundo. "This is Yucatan" pointed out Kimiko

"Great no beach, its practically a jungle" sighed Raimundo resting his head on his arm glancing out at the ocean.

"Well buck up Rai, you look sadder than a sack full of hammers" comforted Clay as he patted Raimundo on the back which made him jolt out of his seat.

"Waaaaaa" wailed Raimundo as turned around to glare at Clay who just returned a sheepish look to him.

"I don't get it what do you mean hammers, I don't see any hammers" questioned Omi in his 'I don't get your type of speaking' way, as he peered over the seat.

"Hey Omi, if your looking at us… then who's driving this thing?" asked Kimiko as she just layed her PDA down on her lap because she of course was sat in the back next to Clay. A few seconds passed after Kimiko had asked her question and Omi blinked a few times before opening his mouth.

The Silver Manta Ray then went out of Control, it went up down left and right. The four monks didn't know if they were the right side up or wrong side down. As Omi turned back towards the steering mechanism to get this thing into its right position, as all the four monks screamed for there lives "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

xXx

After all of the monks had reached Yucatan, alive. They had landed in the middle of a thick dense jungle. Climbing out of the Silver Manta Ray Dojo started to act funny, he was twitching and rolling about on the floor.

"Wow wee Dojo your rolling on the floor like you have just taken a big helpin' of crazy pills" laughed Clay

"Its not my fault, this Wu is very close by" gasped Dojo getting of the floor still a little twitch in his step as he managed to point the direction of the Wu.

All of the monks plus one very twitchy and rashy dragon set out through the dense jungle with Raimundo at front cutting the vines and leaves with tiny blades of wind using his Blade of the Nebula. They come out of the jungle and faced with a very steep wall and a cave which is directly in front of were they are standing. The cave is shaped like a demented smiley face with two circular holes surrounded by moss and jungle leaves. Underneath these two holes is a longer one which would make up the mouth to this smile.

"Its in there" shouted Dojo as he pointed his which once was scaly and now is pink and flabby finger to the three holes that are in the wall.

"Kay, then lets go get it" cheered Raimundo as he was about to climb into the hole.

"I wouldn't be that fast, these holes lead to a vast network of underground and underwater caves" mentioned Kimiko, Raimundo stopped his decent into the hole and climbed out. As Kimiko kept tapping on her PDA for the billionth time during this trip.

"What'cha talkin' about?" asked Raimundo who seemed to have a puzzled expression on his face.

"Well it seems that the Mayans believed that hell was a very specific place and that it was located in these network of tunnels" concluded Kimiko as she slipped her PDA back into her side purse, so she wouldn't lose it.

"Hmmm what a fitting place for this Wu to be located" nodded Omi

"You can say that again partner" chimed Clay

"So, how do we go in there without getting lost" asked Rai, looking towards the rest of the monks seeing if they have any ideas.

"Well we have this 'ere lil buddy which will help us to find the Wu" piped up Clay as he motioned to Dojo.

"Yeah, then we could just make little marks on the wall or something to find our way back" laughed Kimiko finishing Clays sentence as she high fived Clay.

After sorting out how they would find the Wu, they set out into the cave to search for it. Once entering the cave it was slim so the monks had to walk in single file with yet again Raimundo as he is the leader first and Dojo wrapped around his arm showing him the way. They carried down walk way after walk way with the road getting narrower and narrower, scattered across the ceiling and floors lay decaying bones which were infested with all types of parasites. It had seemed like they were walking for hours until Kimiko noticed something strange.

"Hey guys, didn't we put this mark on the walls some time ago" asked Kimiko pointing to the pink glittery pen mark which came from Kimiko's side purse. "Were not lost are we Dojo?"

"Um… no, at least I don't think so I can still feel the Wu" faltered Dojo looking around the spooky cave unevenly.

"Well that's good enough for me" laughed Raimundo as he continued to stroll further in to the depths of darkness in the cave.

They kept walking for who knows how long, until they reached a giant opening. This opening had a hole at the top, this allowed enough light through to light up the cave so that it shone a luminous golden colour. Although the opening wasn't big enough to allow a person to fit through. Through out this giant opening of the cave there were bones sticking out from everywhere in the walls; arms, legs skulls. Scattered across the variety of the room. In the centre there was a shining golden lake which was lit up by the light in the middle of this lake there was a pedestal but upon the pedestal lay nothing as what was once there is now gone.

"The Wu should be here" questioned Dojo jumping from Raimundos arm to have a look around the pedestal. The monks followed him and stood by whilst Dojo left to take a closer look at the pedestal, at that instant they heard laughing as all four monks turned around in shock they realized who had took the Wu… Chase.
