Disclaimer: I don't own Xiaolin Showdown (would be kinda cool though), it belongs to Christy Hui. I only own the OC in this story.

This is also set after the third season, just so you all know.

"Next, we will see how well you use your light energy."

After breakfast, we all entered some sort of circular room with a pot at the center; everyone was sitting cross legged on the ground.

"This ability is most difficult to learn as it requires focus and patience", Fung explained, "Clear your mind of all distractions, focus the energy into your hands..."

I closed my eyes, took a deep breath and placed my hands together, like in a prayer or something.

I did what I could to not think of anything else, but it was hard with the many thoughts going in on my head.

I was trying so hard, that I didn't even notice the monks and old guy left me alone in the room, leaving a note. It read, Will give you time to yourself to work on light energy. Your martial arts training will be at noon.

Well at least I didn't have to worry about getting this wrong in front of everyone; just the martial arts training...

I sighed as I tried to concentrate on the light energy wasn't sure how long it has been.

"Hey, just came to- whoa nilly..."

I opened my eyes to see Clay standing in the door way with an astonished look in his eyes. I looked at my hands in time to see a bright light flicker away.

Great, just great...

"What is it?" I asked. The cowboy probably noticed the agitation in my tone since he adjusted his hat.

"Well... It's been about two hours already, and Master Fung wanted someone to check on you..."

Wait, what? Two hours..?

"Anyway," he continued, "Everybody is waiting for you in the courtyard."

I sighed, getting up and followed him outside.

According to the old guy, we were going to spar. Oh joy...

I was paired up with Raimundo, even though the others didn't think it was a good idea due to him being the highest rank and me being the lowest. And they were right, cause all it took was one punch to cause me to fall over.

Everyone just stared at me as I laid on the ground. They were silent until Raimundo started laughing.

"That was LAME-AUGH!" His laughter was cut off when he got elbowed in the ribs by Kimiko and a stern look from everyone else.

"Do not allow your failure upset you," Omi said as he walked over to me as I sat up, "Being a girl, of course, it must be most difficult-" WHACK! "Ow!"

Kimiko kept a dark glare at Omi after she bonked him on the head.

I let out an aggravated sigh as I got up. "I don't know martial arts, remember?" Stupid brat...

Seriously, how many times did I have to remind them?

"It may take time, but one day, you will reach our level - With MY guidance of course..."

Before I could even reply to that stupid statement, the shrimpy dragon starting shaking violently. "W-w-whoa boy!"

"Dojo?"

"Sensing a new Shen Gong Wu!" He cried out.

"... A what..?"

"Right, your still new to this," Raimundo remembered as Fung walked over with a scroll.

"Shen Gong Wu are artifacts that have magical powers. They were created fifteen hundred years ago by the first Xiaolin Dragon, Grand Master Dashi."

Fung opened the scroll, which showed an animated picture; was this magic too?

It showed a figure holding what looked like a telescope. It placed it infront of it's face with half of the page showing other places from a volcano explosion to what looked like a wedding.

"The Tokei Spyglass; this Shen Gong Wu allows you to see current events in the world..."

"Great way to catch up on the latest gossip..." Kimiko smiled.

Dojo nodded. "Or see what evil is planning," Fung pointed out as he closed the scroll, "Even for them to see what we are planning..."

Everyone paled a bit at this; it would be creepy for someone to see what your doing without you knowing...

Raimundo looked determined. "Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!"

"The four of you along with Dojo will retrieve the Tokei Spyglass; Jane will remain here."

We all stared at the old guy

Oh yeah, yesterday he said I couldn't go with them yet...

"I am most confused..." Omi declared, "Why can Jane not come with us?"

Okay, I admit. I wasn't really complaining since it meant that I could avoid getting air sick and jet lag again...

"Yeah, we all went on our first Wu hunt when we first started," the tanned boy agreed.

"Jane's abilities are a bit more dangerous, especially since she has to hone them earlier than you guys," Dojo pointed out.

"Why is that?"

The green dragon shrugged. "No one really knows."

Fung turned towards me, "When the time is right, you may go with them. Understand"

I nodded. Like I actually cared.

As the brats left, I was instructed with punching and kicking a giant bag of sand while they were gone.

I grunted as the punching bag swung back at me, knocking me on the ground. As I was getting up, I felt the strange sensation of being watched.

I looked up at the tree branch to see a black bird flying away.

Augh! Yet another short chapter! D8
