Revised 5/21/17

Kai POV

Today Jack and I are on a bridge, why well to get to the other side duh! Shouldn't be too hard but WE'VE BEEN ON THIS BRIDGE FOR A WHOLE DAY! This stupid bridge feels like it's never gonna end, we would use my motorcycle but the bridge barely looks like it could even hold two people let alone a motorcycle yesterday Jack almost fell through because the wood broke under his foot we were even more careful after that and…..what is that loud thing I'm hearing?!

"Please tell me you hear that too Jack?" Kai asked looking around for the noise.

"I hear it as well Kai and it seems to be getting closer." Jack answered.

He was right it did get closer and louder until the couple could clearly see a man who looked to be 6'6 a large man with red hair, a barrel chest and small legs one of which was replaced with an automatic rifle and he was playing on the bagpipes, playing as loudly as he wanted disregarding the fact that both Jack and Kai were covering their ears in pain.

"By the looks on your faces, I can tell you like the pipes, wee lad and lassie." Scotsman said clearly pleased with his playing. Kai just stared at him thinking he was crazy to think that they enjoyed it at all since the couple was still covering their ears.

"Please, I don't mean to interrupt but are we close to the end of this bridge?" Jack asked politely hoping to keep the Scotsman from continuing to play his bagpipes.

"No, far from it." Scotsman answered. "I've been traipsing across this bridge for days now."

"Days!" Kai gasped in shock. The two of them couldn't possible keep this up for days, they wouldn't even have been able to sleep if it wasn't for the fact that Kai casted a spell to keep them on the bridge otherwise they would fall.

"Hmm seems we have a long way to go still. We should be on our way." Jack says disappointedly walking up further only to see the Scotsman not moving. "Um Excuse us."

"What do you expect me to do?" Scotsman asked annoyed.

"Just stand aside." Jack answered like the answer was clear.

"Please?" Kai added sheepishly she would sense that the Scotsman was getting very upset.

"And risk falling over the side for two perfect strangers?" Scotsman was now furious. "Away and bow your head. You two stand aside!"

"Our destination is at the opposite end of the bridge." Jack states with narrowed eyes he was starting to get upset.

"It's kind of important that we get there." Kai adds in. This was not good at all the bridge was not a place where a fight should take place and it looked like one was going to happen.

"And you'll get there after you back up and I reach that end of the bridge first." Scotsman replies.

"That would waste too much time and time is what we don't have." Jack states looking back the way he and his partner came. This man was really starting to push his buttons and he didn't get enough sleep to be dealing with this right now.

"So you two think you're better than me because you're in a hurry! Well, I'm in a hurry too! But, no, you two did not think of that, did you? That I might be an equal. No! You two just consider yourselves superior, right off. You guys are rude." Scotsman states in a rant.

"You mistake my comment, sir." Jack states trying to keep calm surprised that this man thought they were rude.

"Do I? You think I'm dumb too?" Scotsman says getting angrier.

"No, I…" Jack began only for Kai to butt in.

"I think you're dumb personal." Kai states starting to get fed up.

"Excuse me lassie?" Scotsman says turning a glare to Kai.

"You're the one roaring about how rude we are for just wanting you to stand aside to let us past. But you get it in your head to think that you're more superior and want us to go back all the way in the direction we came. Not at all thinking about how it took us a day to get here on a bridge that is barely holding itself together. You're rude!" Kai states flatly.

"Look, we are all in a hurry." Jack says trying to get everyone to calm down. "So I shall hang from these planks and you may walk over." Jack thinks this is a good plan and will get the Scotsman out of here so that he and Kai could continue to walk in peace.

"So you get a peek up my kilt?" Scotsman says disgusted.

"That is not what I am suggesting." Jack states as calmly as before.

"Besides, I mean look at you." Kai says laughing and shaking her head.

"And what's that supposed to mean lassie?" Scotsman asked.

"Please, look at you then look at me," Kai says now pointing to herself. "Now why would Jack want to take a peek at your kilt when he has me?!"

"And are you supposed to be something special?! Compared to my wife you're just a brutish, twiggy looking thing and with a bad attitude too!" Scotsman yells.

"Excuse me?" Kai says trying to move closer to him. Now she was upset and ready to throw this man off the bridge.

"Kai, please calm down." Jack says standing in her way. "And sir I suggest you watch what you say about my Kai." Jack finishes turning a glare to the Scotsman.

"And what are you going to do about it, you plucky-faced hing-oot!" Scotsman taunted.

"What did you call me?" Jack askes partly insulted and confused but mostly insulted.

"So you're deaf too, you clagtail cuddie drake!" Scotsman continues to taunt. "I'II tell you what we're gonna do. We'll fight for it to the finish."

"I do not think there is any need to-"Jack begins.

"Oh what you're afraid of how weak you'll look in front of your lassie, too bad so listen here you boony blathering numpty. The only way for you two to get across this bridge is to beat me in combat! Now, are you a man, or a worthless blate like I know you are?" Scotsman taunted getting into Jacks face as he spoke but getting no responds. "I'm calling you a coward!"

"Oh I am so ready to beat this guy within an inch of his life!" Kai says getting ready to pull out her Bo staff but Jack stopped her.

"I fear no man." Jack stated plainly looking back at the Scotsman.

"That's some tough talk coming from a man who wears a basket on his head! I carry my haggis in a basket." Scotsman continued to rant not realizing that he was only getting the couple even more upset. "You might even make me shiver if you weren't dressed in a nightgown. You look like my nanny! You call that thing dangling off your hip a sword? Looks like a butter knife. At least your lassie looks scarier then you but with a face like that I wouldn't need some kind of fancy silver stick to scare people away I would just stare at em!"

"Fucking bastard just try me!" Kai whispers trying to push past Jack but he wouldn't let her. In reality she could have gotten around Jack already but she wanted to respect her partner since most of the insults were about him.

"Kai stay out of this one." Jack tells her almost forcefully narrowing his eyes at the man.

"You'll not hurt anyone, wielding a piece of tinfoil around. You'd be better off using your slippers for a weapon." Scotsman continued to rant pulling out his own sword. "This is a sword! And it's bigger than yours." Holding up the sword so that the couple would get a look at it.

Kai just looks at him caught off guard by his my sword is bigger than yours comment not that his sword wasn't nice but still. Seriously what is he twelve! Should I now say that it's not the size of the sword but how you use it? No too easy even for me he was just asking for a reaction.

"What do you think of that, Mr. Pajama-Wearing, Basket-Face Slipper-Wielding, Clype-Dreep-Bachle Gether-Uping-Blate-Maw, Bleathering, Gomeril Jessie, Oaf-looking, Scooner, Nyaff, Plookie, Shan, Milk-Drinking Soy-Faced Shilpit, Mim-Moothed, Sniveling, Worm-Eyed, Hotten-Blaugh Vile-Stoochie, Cully-Breek-Tattie." Scotsman moves to attack Jack with his sword only to have Jack block him with his sword, the Scotsman struggles for a bit but one good push causes him to break free enough to slice his hat in two.

"No! He didn't!" Kai gasped looking down as the pieces of the hat fall down.

"You gonna weep now? Shall I pause while you mourn your hat? I can play a melancholy tune to go with your weeping." Scotsman laugh mockingly now holding on to his bagpipes again only to stop when Jack uses his sword to stab the instrument. A happy smirk now on Jack's face for besting the loud man.

"You've done it now." Scotsman states more calmly then the couple had ever seen him. "I'm gonna turn your head into a flour sifter." And the battle began again with the two, Kai moving away to not get in the middle of it. Jack and the Scotsman battled greatly but it was clear to Kai that neither was likely to win seeing as they were pretty evenly matched.

"Aye, you got a lot of pep for a wee laddie." Scotsman says laughing not noticing the discomfort that Jack felt standing that close to him since he was spitting as well.

The two began to fight again with the Scotsman trying to strike Jack but he missed and Jack jumped up into the air coming down fast with his sword hoping to break the Scotsman's own sword but it doesn't work. "The horse-cut technique should've destroyed your sword." Jack stated confused, and so was Kai Jack's sword should have destroyed his.

"Magic runes, laddie! AII them fancy moves will get you nowhere." Scotsman states. "Now, quit your jumping around and get to fighting!" And the two do just that continuing to fight all day and night with neither gaining the upper hand for too long. This fight was really starting to get on Kai's nerves they were both now clearly too tired to keep going but neither would stop.

"Prepare to meet your doom." Scotsman says weakly barely able to pick up his sword. "I'll give you one more chance to give up."

"I am not defeated and I shall hold my ground." Jack states panting as well he was holding on to the bridge just to stay up.

"Hold your ground? You can barely hold your sword." Scotsman said in disbelieve.

"Then come get me." Jack states weakly as Kai stands there shaking her head at the two.

"What? I." Scotsman was surprised by the statement and seeing as he himself was too tired to move. "Seeing that I'm a sportsman I'II give you a moment to recuperate."

"Would you two please stop this now?! Neither of you is going to win especially since you guys don't even have the strength to move!" Kai yelled now upset with the two man.

"I'm not the one that's out of breathe." Scotsman states still panting. "The wee lad is the one that can't keep up anymore."

"I'm the one who told you to come and get me." Jack says weakly. "It's not my fault that you haven't done anything."

The two continued on arguing back and forth not noticing the two bounty hunters that speeding quickly towards them on motorcycles. Luckily Kai noticed them before they got to close. "Guys! We have company racing toward us here!"

The two finally take notice of what Kai was talking about. "They're after me!" They both exclaimed at the same time standing up. "After you? They're after me!"

"Aku's got a price on my head!" Scotsman states pointing at himself.

"Aku's got a price on my head!" Jack states pointing at himself.

"Ah, guys you need to…"Kai began but it was too late because of their arguing over who the bounty hunters were after neither of them notice the shackles flying towards them until it was on both Jack and the Scotsman's wrists.

"Congratulations! You get a price on your head, you get a price on your head. We all get prices on our heads! And now we have to fight these guys with you two shackled together!" Kai says sarcastically.

"We are in no condition to fight these odds." Jack states as the bounty hunters get closer.

"Especially not with a pajama-wearing daisy strapped to my wrist!" Scotsman states.

"We must escape." Jack states for once today Kai agreed with him, she jumped left the same side as Jack but Scotsman jumped right and since they were shackled together neither went over the bridge.

"Leave it to a lover of basket hats to jump left instead of right." Scotsman says looking at him. "I'm having second thoughts now anyway. We have no idea how far down—"The rest of that was cutoff since Jack decided the next best thing to do was to cut the bridge making them both fall through and the two bounty hunters to crash into each other. "Great job, laddie!" Scotsman says once they reached the bottom, they had landed in the marsh below and had just resurfaced. "You have any idea where we are?"

"No. Sorry but I need to find Kai." Jack stated looking around for his partner.

"Over here!" Kai shouted from onto of a rock near them. "Looks like I found a better place to land then you two!" Kai states looking at the two in the water. Not that they don't deserve it all that fighting day and night. Not paying attention when the bounty hunters were coming!

"So, what now, smarty-pants?" Calling Jack's attention back to himself.

"For the moment, we are safe from those bounty hunters. We must find shelter before they find us." Jack states. "We are defenseless in this lagoon." As he finishes saying that the three notice a piece of Jack's hat floating in the water. This gets a laugh out of the Scotsman until he sees his deflated bagpipes which causes Jack to smirk and Kai to giggle as well.

"There. We'll be safer on land." Jack states pointing to where he had found land, Jack and Scotsman swim towards it while Kai uses her magic to transport herself to land. They reach land only to find the place surrounded with bounty hunters so the three hide under the leaves so as not to be seen.

Hillbilly gator's and pigs! I wish this was the most surprising thing I've ever seen but it's not. Kai thinks as the three watch the bounty hunters from their hiding space.

A little while later Jack and the Scotsman were cutting through the forest with Kai behind Jack trying to figure out a way to get the two unshackled. Why Jack didn't think to ask Kai was beyond her, maybe it was male ego… speaking of which.

"What I do not understand is, why Aku is after you two." Scotsman said looking at Jack. "I have a huge price on my head." Jack and Kai give him no reaction, Jack just continues to cut his way through the forest and Kai doubts that the Scotsman is even really paying attention to the fact that there was a price on her head as well. "Oh, yeah." Scotsman continued on cutting away. "Huge. I'm the most wanted man on this planet." The couple share an off handed look but still give no reaction given to him. "Bounty hunters of all types are after me skin." No reaction still given by the couple. "My face is plastered on wanted posters in every town on seven countries. Oh, yeah. I'm infamous." Scotsman finishes saying thinking that the two weren't responding because they were jealous, until they reached a point where he cuts a branch and is able to clearly see a wanted black and white poster for Jack. "No." Scotsman says surprised as he looked at the poster.

"That's nothing look over there." Kai says pointing at a wanted poster of herself that was full length also in black and white.

"I don't believe it!" Scotsman says still surprised.

"I know right! You would think that they would be able to print theses in color, but I guess we are in the back woods." Kai says with a shrug. Wanted posters, bounty hunters that was just an everyday normal thing like the sun coming up and setting it just happens.

But Scotsman gets angry most likely since there wasn't a poster of himself anywhere and rips both posters to shreds.

"I think they will still be able to recognize, Jack and myself but thank you so much for your concern!" Kai says patting his back mockingly and pointing at the other posters. Jack smiles at this but doesn't add anything to what his tsuki just said after all the three were in an abandoned settlement filled with more posters of himself and his partner.

The peace and quiet was short lived however seeing as how the bounty hunters had found the abandoned settlement and where splitting up their search party to look for them. The three warriors in the meantime were hiding in an old outhouse.

"I think they're gone." Scotsman states thinking that it was safe.

"Are you sure?" Jack asked quietly from where he was, Kai was sitting on his lap seeing as how minuscule the outhouse was.

"Aye, it's quiet." Scotsman states still thinking it's safe.

"Kai?" Jack turns to her to question as best as he could, after all his partner could sense and read arura.

"It's not safe at all." Kai says shaking her head.

"Of course it's safe it's quiet!" Scotsman says getting upset.

"Fine then you go out there first!" Kai harshly whispers to the Scotsman.

"Fine, I will." Scotsman said barreling out the door with Jack still shackled to him and Kai since she had been on Jack's lap. The three warriors find themselves surrounded by the bounty hunters with no chance of escaping.

"Well it looks like it's time to fight." Kai states pulling out her Bo staff and glaring a bit at the Scotsman.

"Jump now!" Jack loudly shouted as the bounty hunters opened fire on the three. Kai landed after it was safe and ran towards the bounty hunters with her Bo staff taking a few out but since Jack and Scotsman were still shackled together when they both tried to attack it ended with them both on the ground. "This might not work."

"Of course it works. We're a lethal pair." Scotsman states not seeing the bounty hunter coming up from behind him.

"Behind you!" Jack states and the Scotsman uses Jack to push the bounty hunter out of the way. "The arrow relies on the bow. The bow, on the arrow. But they are not tied together. " Jack explains to Scotsman.

"That would be pointless now, wouldn't it?" Scotsman says looking at their shacked hands.

"Exactly. Together we are formidable but shackled, our power is pointless. We must be free." Jack finished explaining.

"Aye, free. And we'll take them together." Scotsman says nodding in agreement.

"Hey! Whenever you two wanna I don't know stop talking about bows and arrows and just work together so that I could get some help feel free to jump in and do that!" Kai says yelling at the two as she continues to fight bringing their attention back to the matter at hand.

"The lassie is right." Scotsman states to Jack, so they see the Hillbilly pig shot of a canon which the two used to get unshackled and then they begin fighting off the bounty hunters with Kai together. With the three warriors now working together it doesn't take them long before the bounty hunters were all defeated.

"I'd say we've wiped out our bounty-hunter problem." Scotsman states after the three take a look around and see that they are all gone.

"For now." Jack states putting his sword away, Kai nods as well thinking along the lines of the same thing.

"Aye. For now." Scotsman states calmly Jack, Kai and the Scotsman turn to look at each other and begin to laugh at everything now that it was over. "I was wrong about you two."

"I acted foolishly as well." Jack replies back chuckling a bit.

"Hey we all did! That bridge was just so stressful but no hard feelings right?!" Kai asked holding out her hand to the Scotsman, which he shook.

"No hard feelings, aye? I'II buy you two a refreshment." Scotsman says.

"Please, allow me." Jack says politely. "I shall buy you a refreshment."

"I insist." Scotsman says forcefully.

"No, I must buy you one, to make amends." Jack says also forcefully.

"Its all right. I'll buy." Scotsman says now this was becoming another argument.

"No, I will buy." Jack continues on saying.

"ME!" Scotsman yells to Jack.

"ME!" Jack yells back.

"SHUT UP! Just shut up both of you." Kai shouts not being able to take it anymore.

"Kai?" Jack questioned.

"Yeah, lassie what's the problem?" Scotsman asked.

"You two are the problem! You fight day and night over who gets to go in which direction on the bridge and now you're fighting over who gets to buy drink?!" Kai says in disbelief.

"But Kai," Jack began to say only to be interrupted by Kai.

"No buts! You will buy him a drink and he will buy your drink, and you two will be happy and drink them or so help me Jack I'll have a raging headache every night for the rest of the week!" Kai states harshly.

"But Kai," Jack tries to begin again.

"It can be two weeks Jack, I have no problem leaving you to suffer in frustration for two weeks!" Kai says with a harsh glare at Jack. To which he decides that it would be much safer to just keep his mouth shut and do what she says.

"Well then I guess we see who wears the pants in this relationship?! Aye!" Scotsman states laughing. "Oh man, you faced hundreds of bounty hunters, but this little lassie has you shaking in your slippers!" Scotsman continues to laugh at Jack's expense, not noticing the dark look on Kai face as she approached him. "Oh, my I've never seen anything so….awwww!" Scotsman yells the last part because Kai had gotten a hold of his wrist and was painfully twisting it.

"Shut up." Kai stated calmly twisting it even harder. "Unless you want me to go to every bar around the world and tell them how this little lassie cause a big guy like you to fall to his wittle knees. You will shut up!" Kai ends darkly letting him go and walking away.

"Wow, no wonder you're with that lassie." Scotsman says rubbing his wrist it hurt like hell but he couldn't help but respect Kai in a way.

"Yes, my Kai is something special." Jack stated as he walked after his tsuki.

Jack pov

It has been a few days since our time with the Scotsman; Kai and myself had just finished walking in a forest and had moved on to a field of straw. I really needed to rest my feet and was more than happy when we found a nice quiet stream in the middle of the straw field.

Jack was enjoying the calm of nature with Kai and letting his bare feet soak in the stream but there was one problem the beaming sun was getting into his eyes. So Jack decided to make another straw hat for himself seeing as how the Scotsman had destroyed his last one. Jack became lost in the peaceful moment of making his hat remembering a time when he was a boy just learning how to make one with his mother. He had failed the first time but his mother loved it anyways. Jack finished making the hat proud of how it looked he had come a long way from when he was just learning the craft.

"Hey!" Kai yelped in surprised. Kai had been happily enjoying the sun when Jack dropped the hat on top of her head and was now laughing at her reaction. "Very funny." Kai stated rolling her eyes playfully at him. "But I think this suits you more than it does for me." Kai says as she leans in to put the hat on Jack's head, Jack wraps in arm around her waist and pulls her onto his lap. Before she could question him, Jack pulls her in for a deep kiss.

But the couple's peaceful moment of making out was soon ruined by the loud sounds of motor bikes. Suddenly a motor bike gang made of ironically half robot half motor bike, came crashing through the once peaceful field with their careless motor noise and reckless driving. Luckily the couple moved fast enough to jump out of the bikes way seeing as there was zero chance that those bikes would stop. When they landed back to their spot however Jack had found that his geta that he had removed earlier were now destroyed much to his growing angry.

"Now that's just rude." Kai plainly stated looking at Jack's now ruined sandals.

"Yes it is." Jack stated darkly throwing one of the broken pieces into the stream. Jack starts running towards the direction the bike gang was going, he comes to a stop when he sees the city that they had most likely been running off to.

Kai having been coming up from behind Jack had looked towards the city and feeling Jack's angry she knew it was very likely that Jack wanted to go after them. "Jack before you go on your vendetta-"Kai begins but doesn't get to finish because Jack was already running towards the city. Kai just shakes her head and runs after him.

By the time Jack had made it into the city the gang had already cause a lot of damaged from trashed cars to trashed places of business including the not foot locker but looks just like foot locker shoe store. (Remember kids it's not a foot locker!) The manager of the not foot locker seeing his city and store being harassed by the gang decided to do something about it not realizing the danger he was in when the gang transformed into dangerous robots with weapons that he wouldn't be able to handle. One of the members was holding on to the manager by his shirt threating to hurt him but luckily someone arrived to help.

"Release him." Jack states darkly coming on to the scene. "You have insulted my foot wear." Jack says as he holds up his damaged geta which the gang laugh at. "My sandals don't like to be laughed at."

"Get him!" The purple bike of the robot bikes yell as three all move in to attack Jack at once. They each shoot a rocket towards Jack which he easily dodges the first one, and slices the second and third one with his sword.

"Huh?" The purple one says in surprise shocked that Jack survived the attack and was running towards them. He begins running towards Jack as well and when they meet in the air Jack slices one of the robots arms with his sword.

The green one with a saw and the silver one with a metal chain both move in to attack Jack. The metal chain gets wrapped around Jack's sword and the silver robot pulls Jack closer thinking that he had him. "That's right come to-"But the next words were cut off because Jack began kicking his face although foolishly it cause Jack pain seeing as how his foot was bare. Jack had managed to put up a good fight with the gang but his lack of footwear was causing him a lot of pain since he kept stepping on glass and the gang had decided he wasn't worth it took off laughing. Which was the scene that Kai came upon after finally catching up to Jack.

"Guess I missed the big showdown." Kai says looking around at the mess and helping Jack get away from the broken glass.

"Nice moves, dude. I like your style." The manager says causing the couple to look up at him. "I can honestly say that l have never seen anyone champion the ideals of shoemanship with such heartfelt ''game,'' if l may. I gotta confess, I'm kind of feeling a kindred spiritual kind of bond kind of thing here with you."

Jack just continues to look at the man strangely while Kai tried not to laugh at the idea that Jack had a kindred bond with this kind of guy.

"Because l, like you, understand the importance of the proper footwear in our everyday performance." The manager continues to say not noticing how confused the couple looked as he continues to talk. "And if l might be so bold, you, sir, are in need of a new pair." At this Jack looks down at his feet to see a piece of glass sticking out from one of his toes. It was true he needed a new pair indeed. "Since you were such a bro about helping me out of that jam I'll give you for free, at no additional charge, your pick of any shoe at the world-famous Foot-Chalet!"

"Don't you mean foot lo-"Kai began to state only to be interrupted by the manager.

"Nope! Foot-Chalet!" The manager says forcefully.

"But it looks like….and your uniform?" Kai whispers shaking her head, it didn't matter anyways since it looked like Jack was going to take up the manager's offer anyhow.

The first pair Jack decided to try were made of metal, it looked heavy to Kai and while she was sure it would greatly protect the user's feet she doubted that it would be of much use to Jack. Kai voice none of this though; after having tried to remind Jack of her powers which she could have used to fix his geta only for him and the manager to ignore her in favor of treating their damaged egos. So now Kai decided to keep quiet for the rest of this ordeal until Jack came to his senses. Looks like even Jack can have moments where his ego overrides his logic.

Jack now wearing the metal boots ran around the city until he found the gang again. He found them but once he jumped down from on top of the building he spotted them he learned the hard way the fall back to the boots was that they were too heavy and caused him to crash down. The second pair Jack decided to try on was a pair of woman heels that looked similar to his old sandals. Jack of course saw them as not only good foot wear but the heel could be used as a weapon, Kai didn't have the heart to tell Jack the truth (ok so she was too busy trying not to laugh) and for whatever reason the manager didn't correct Jack.

Jack took off to find the gang once again. Only this time Kai followed closely behind him. I have to record this moment or else I might regret it for the rest of my life! Kai had to admit the heels were good weapons if used correctly and good for climbing buildings. Jack finds the bike gang again this time shaking down a poor helpless citizen for money. Kai took out her phone just as Jack jumped from where he was and landed in front of the bike gang. Kai tried not to laugh at Jack's pose the image alone could cause her to die of laughter.

"Get a load of those legs!" Purple shouted.

"Hey, good-looking, we'll be back to pick you up later." Silver adds in.

"Check out them stems." Green says.

"Say, sweet thing, let me get your number." Now the person who was being shake down for money was getting in on the catcalling.

This is gold! This is all gold! Kai thinks as she continues to record everything how she hasn't broken down and laughed was beyond her though.

"Oh, my goodness! Oh, my goodness." Says a woman on the streets who was there with her two friends.

"Oh, no, she didn't. Do you believe that?" another woman says.

"Oh, girl, look at you. Mm-mmm mmm mm." The third woman says.

At this point and time Jack was seriously confused as to what was going on. Which in turn made this whole thing even funnier to Kai.

"Baby, baby! Oh, baby, you looking good. I'm gonna have to lose weight or something." The first woman says again.

"Shoot, l ain't mad at you, sweetie. Do your thing, girl." Second woman says.

"That's right, girl. You gotta work what you got. You know what I'm saying?" the third woman says.

During the woman's taunting Jack had finally realized that he had in fact picked up woman's shoes and ran away embarrassed. With that Kai stopped recording and put her phone away and turned back to look at the crowd.

"Everyone, thank you. Like you have no idea how much all that means…to me!" Kai says to the crowd and then runs after Jack.

Jack continues to try a number of other shoes all of which keeps failing him for one reason or another. Jack tried them all from pimp shoes to expensive sneakers that where stolen because they were untied (seriously those kids were vandalizing), Kai wonder how long this would continue until they realized that this would not work out.

"Any luck, dude?" The manager asked looking up from his sweeping, only for Jack to shake his head stating no. Kai was just about to try to remind Jack of her powers again when the manager gets an idea. "I almost forgot about these. They just arrived. Utilizing the latest technologies. Air foam, Trans posit shock-absorbing double-wishbone 5. 1 -digital-surround suspension- Well, whatever, dude! They're the newest, latest ones." Kai had to admit these shoes did look really cool but it looked like it was ready to pop as well so it was unlikely that it would work well for a battle. "Let's try them on." The manager says having Jack try on what was most likely the last pair of shoes that he had. "Easy now. Make me proud, brother."

And with that Jack and Kai left the shoe shop once again in hope that this pair would be the one to finally work out. The shoes had made Jack extremely fast so fast that it was not possible for Kai to keep up with him so he went ahead. Jack had tracked down the bike gang again this time they were driving around the city but with his new sneakers Jack was fast enough to catch up to them. The bike gang turned into a corner and waited for Jack to come so they could fight him head on, Kai had just made it on the scene when she saw Jack bouncing around every building. It would seem the air foam surround suspension was not good in terms of staying still. It was then that one of the bike members got an idea and shot spikes at Jack, he dodged most of them but the last one hit a shoe which caused it to pop! Sending Jack flying into a crowd of people and Kai running after him to see if her partner was okay.

Jack luckily was still able to pull himself back up from the ground when he noticed a small Japanese boy in front of him wearing sandals just like his old ones. "Those- Where did you-? How-?" Jack began to ask the boy only for him to run away. "Wait! Excuse me. Pardon me. Young boy, wait! Boy! Come back! Wait!" Jack yells calling after the boy.

"Jack? Jack! Where are you going?" Kai yells running after her partner, but he pays her no mind.

"Excuse me!" Jack continues to call after the boy who had run into an auto shop.

"I saw Samurai Jack! I saw Samurai Jack!" The boy exclaims happily running into the shop.

"Excuse me. I" Jack begins speaking to the person working on a car inside the shop.

"No, no sorry shop is closed. You come back tomorrow. It is dinnertime. I am closing shop. We open at 6 tomorrow." The man finishes saying taking the safety mask off his face when he sees Jack he is very surprised. "You- are the samurai Jack!" The small Japanese man says in shock.

"Jack! There you are why did you run in here?" Kai asked also coming into the shop having been chasing after Jack.

"And YOU! You are The Warrior Princess Kai!" The small Japanese now looked like he was going to have a panic attack. "Samurai Jack and Warrior Princess Kai, it is an honor that you two would grace my humble garage." The man says bowing his head. "To what do l owe this great privilege?"

"I don't mean to trouble you but l was wondering-"Jack begins to try and explain only for his stomach to choose that moment to growl.

"Where to find dinner? Right here, my friend. My wife is cooking as we speak." The man says happily.

"Thank you, but there are villains at large that l must deal with." Jack states politely.

"Oh, there are always villains. But you cannot defeat them on an empty stomach. Now, come it will be a great honor if you two join my family for dinner." The man stated walking Jack toward his home.

"Might want to just go with this one Jack. Trust me when I say that he will not take no for an answer." Kai whispers to Jack as they both set their shoes in front of the door outside, it was at this moment that Jack notices more sandals for the whole family.

"I saw Samurai Jack! I saw Samurai Jack! I saw Samurai Jack!" The small boy says running into the house going past his two older sisters who had a poster of Jack in their room.

"Did not. Like, I'm sure." One of them says in disbelief.

"I know. He's such a little dorf-norb its like" The other one begins only to stop when they both see Jack.

"Ladies." Jack states kindly bowing his head and continuing his walk.

"Oh, my gosh. He's so handsome." The two girls giggled and squealed.

"I know right!" Kai says coming up from behind them causing the two girls to jump in surprise.

"That's Warrior Princess Kai, Warrior Princess Kai is in our house!" The girls squealed again as Kai followed after Jack and their father.

"Dear, set two more places at the table." The man asks his wife whose back was turned to the two of them. "We have guests."

"Did you bring home another oily jet-car pilot again? I swear, if you- -Oh, Samurai Jack and Warrior Princess Kai!" His wife says in surprise having just now turned to look at the guests.

"Madam, please excuse our intrusion." Jack says bowing politely.

"Yes, we don't mean to cause you any trouble." Kai adds in.

"No, no. Please, please." The wife says having the two take a seat. "Welcome to our table."

"Thank you!" The couple said at the same time.

"Your home is wonderful. Perhaps this is the time machine l have been seeking." Jack states smiling and looking around.

"We feel it is important to remember the old ways." The man explained.

"Hmm, just like how some things are done in the Soleil Lunas Kingdom." Kai says agreeing and nodding her head.

"We try to honor our ancestors by keeping traditions from the old land and by retelling the old stories."

"And the new stories." The older of the two sisters says.

"Yeah, your stories." The younger sister says excitedly.

"He came back, back from the past Samurai Jack." The boy comes into the room singing.

"Look Jack! You've got your very own theme song." Kai states teasingly watching him blush.

"We know you'll beat Aku someday, Mr. Jack and Kai!" The younger sister says again. "You two are the greatest."

"Yes, your legend is an inspiration to all who live under the heel of Aku." The wife says.

"Please, if there is any way we can help you, just ask." The man states.

"Well, l wanted to ask about your son's shoes." Jack asked hoping to find a way to gain a pair for himself.

Turns out the man made the sandals for his family by himself, and after Jack feet were measured and he helped chopped some wood he went back to the sitting room to find Kai entertaining the rest of the family. Jack was not only surprised to see that not only did Kai know how to play the guitar but she sang beautifully as well.

"Old pirates, yes, they rob I, Sold I to the merchant ships, Minutes after they took I, from the bottomless pit. " Kai began singing and playing on the guitar. "But my hand was made strong, by the hand of the Almighty, We forward in this generation, triumphantly. Won't you help to sing these songs of freedom? Cause all I ever have, Redemption songs, Redemption songs."

"Wow she is so amazing." The older sister says.

"She sounds like an angel." Their mother states, Jack could only nod his head from where he was sitting.

This is a side of my tsuki that I didn't even know about. Jack thinks as they continue to listen.

"Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds. Have no fear for atomic energy, Cause none of them can stop the time. How long shall they kill our prophets, while we stand aside and look?" Kai continues on. "Some say it's just a part of it we've got to fulfill the book. Won't you help to sing these songs of freedom? Cause all I ever have, Redemption songs, Redemption songs, Redemption songs. Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds. Have no fear for atomic energy, Cause none of them can stop the time. How long shall they kill our prophets, while we stand aside and look? Some say it's just a part of it we've got to fulfill the book. Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom? Cause all I ever had Redemption songs. All I ever had, Redemption songs. These songs of freedom songs of freedom." With the last note Kai was done and met with the sound of clapping.

"That was so beautiful." The younger sister says.

"And has a powerful message as well." The mother says.

"Kai, I had no idea you could sang and play the guitar." Jack says in awe.

"Really now? Perhaps I told you and you just forgot." Kai says mischievously with a shrug.

"I think I would remember this Kai." Jack states chuckling.

"Really? Like how you remember that I could do magic?" Kai states mockingly. "You remember that don't you? Yes! That's right it's the same one that could have fixed your sandals or gotten you unshackled from the Scotsman!"

"Why did you not say anything?" Jack asked now realizing that all his troubles could have been solved much quicker.

"I tried Jack, THREE TIMES! But you wouldn't listen so I just let you be." Kai defended. "By the way we could have also gone back to Soleil Lunas since there are like five shops that sell geta in the city."

"I guess I should have known that since you told me about your powers the day we met. And Misty did show me around the city so I should have remembered that as well." Jack says apologetically.

"I guess Jack is not always the greatest boyfriend is he!" The older sister says with a giggle.

"No, not always." Kai says in matter of fact way as Jack crossed his arms and pouted. "But he has his moments!" Kai says pinching one of his cheeks.

"Very funny," Jack stated rubbing his cheek. "You could have stopped me from wearing those heels though!"

"How could I stop you? You have amazing legs you were killing it!" Kai says laughing the image alone would be one of her favorite moments.

"Right, well you know I much prefer your legs especially when they are wrapped around my waist as I-"Jack whispers into Kai ear.

"Jack! I think you should save that for later. Like when we are not in a room with kids in it." Kai whispers back blushing a bit.

"I'll hold you to that." Jack says kissing her lightly on the cheek.

"If I was your boyfriend Kai, I would listen to whatever you had to say all the time!" The boy says hopping on to her lap.

"Oh really! You are just too sweet." Kai says hugging the boy.

"I think you're just a bit too young for my Kai child." Jack states flatly.

"I think you're just jealous! Cause I'm a better boyfriend." The boy just stated back, everyone but Jack had a good laugh after he said this. Kai especially seeing the annoyed look on his face.

The couple moved on to signing posters, in Jack's case figuring out how to sigh posters. Answering questions ect. It wasn't long before the man was done with Jack's new sandals, they were perfect and now it was time for the couple to leave.

"Thank you so much, my friend." Jack says thankfully as the three stand outside the shop. "I wish l could repay you some-"Jack pauses remembering the hat he had made earlier that day. He handed over to the nice man who gladly seized it.

"If you ever need anything just call this number." Kai says handing him a card, with that the couple waved good bye and were on their way to stop the bike gang once and for all.

The couple races into the city to find the bike gang still causing trouble. Kai was just about to move to attack but Jack was surprisingly quicker and soon it became pretty clear that there would be no point in her getting involved. I'll let him have his moment this time he deserves it.

Kai pov

It has been a few months since Jack and I have been on this journey together and so far we have dealt with blind mice archers, a metal eating robot family, people needing help, people at war, Jack running around naked(at least that's what he told me) and even having to see Jack fight himself. Anyway between helping others, being hunted down and trying to find Jack a way home we haven't really seen Aku much which is strange?

Aku pov (but only because it's needed)

"As far as the eye can see, the land is desolate and full of despair. Shadows crawl across the earth and black out the light. Darkness oozes from every crevice. Hope has been eradicated. Only terror reigns. Yet there are still two warriors that mocks my omnipresent evil with their existence. He possesses a sword which could destroy me. And she possesses a staff that would never allow my existence to ever return. They call him Samurai Jack and her Warrior Princess Kai! Despite my efforts, they have not yet been destroyed. But now l, Aku, dark lord of all darkness will make the final move and annihilate Samurai Jack forever, and make Princess Kai finally hand her kingdom over to me." Aku says to himself as he sits upon his throne thinking of a new way to destroy his enemies. "From deep within the bowels of the pit of hate l summon Demongo!"

"What is thy bidding, my master?" Demongo says as he appears in a blue blaze in the throne room after being summoned.

"You are one of my most powerful minions. You possess the ability to steal the essence of the mightiest of warriors or the deadliest of beasts. You have never failed me." Aku explained looking down at Demongo.

"The more essence l take the more powerful l become, my master. And l have stolen the essence of the greatest of warriors. I cannot be defeated." Demongo explains almost smugly.

"Find Samurai Jack and Warrior Princess Kai. Destroy Jack and enslave his essence, only capture Kai I have other plans for her." Aku explains.

"Samurai Jack. A prize indeed. The greatest of all warriors. Yes." Demongo agrees with Aku.

"What better way to get rid of him than have his essence imprisoned for all time?" Aku says as he angrily remembers all the times he had been defeated.

"It is as good as done, my master." Demongo says as he bows and leaves the room.

Kai pov

Meanwhile Jack and Kai were continuing on their journey just walking when all of a sudden a rock fell down from above them. It was clearly a poorly executed distraction against the couple as they knew what it was for and could sense Demongo behind them.

"If you seek conflict, you have found the wrong warriors to deal with." Jack says evenly.

"You are mistaken. I am the dealer of destruction the merchant of doom." Demongo begins to explain. "And l seek you, Samurai Jack." Demongo finishes explaining. At this Jack pulls out his sword turns around and prepares to attack only to find Demongo gone.

"Who are you?" Jack demands now taking the new comer a bit more seriously.

"Aku has sent me to destroy you." Demongo explains to him.

"AKU?!" Jack says surprised.

"My master tires of your existence. You are a powerful foe. Perhaps too powerful for my master but not for me. My name is Demongo." Demongo says as he turns to look at the couple.

"So you're an evil mango?" Kai says with mockingly. "I think Jack and I have faced worse then you."

"Ah yes, Warrior Princess Kai. Your wit is well known luckily for you today Aku has other plans for you. But for Samurai Jack l have come to capture your warrior's essence." Demongo finishes explaining floating up into the air once up there he throws a skull at Jack which misses and just sits there.

"Merchant of doom?" Jack says confused now thinking that perhaps Demongo was all talk. But Kai kept her guard up something was not right about the skull.

"You are a fool, samurai. Do not meddle in things you do not understand." Demongo says as he laughs, he shots a bright beam at the skull and soon a giant monster was in front of the couple. "Titan destroy the samurai and warrior."

With that Titan tries to crush the two with his giant fist and feet but they jump out of the way. It was after dodging Titan's foot that Jack saw a giant boulder above Titan's head. Jack quickly comes up with a plan and tries to run under Titan but gets picked up by Titan.

"You've met your match, samurai. Crush him! Crush, crush, crush!" Demongo says gleefully watching Titan squeeze Jack in his hand. Jack used his sword to pierce one of Titan's fingers causing him to let go of Jack.

Jack lands on the ground and Kai runs up to him. "You have any idea on how we could take this Titan out?" Kai askes and Jack points at the boulder above them. "That could work."

In the meantime while Jack and Kai were coming up with the plan Titan was still whining to Demongo about the pain that he was in. "Stop you're whining. It's just a scratch. Now get them!" Demongo says pointing back to the couple. Titan moves to where the couple were still standing and moves to punch them with is fist but they move out of the way causing Titan to unknowingly cause the boulder to fall on top of his head knocking him out. "Curses." Demongo says slapping his hand to his face.

"You are next!" Jack says as he pulls his sword out of Titans finger. Only to look on in surprise as Demongo begins to suck up Titan's essence. Demongo just laughs as he throws more skulls at the couple and shots more bright beams at the skulls causing them to take form as fallen warriors.

"I know these warriors." Jack says in surprised and Kai looked on in shock.

"They, too, were once thorns in Aku's side. But now l, Demongo, control their essence as l will control yours." Demongo mockingly says. "Prepare yourselves, samurai and warrior, for annihilation."

With that said the first fallen warrior much to their surprise uses his weapon to quickly pull Jack's sword and Kai Bo staff out of their hands and a white tiger looking warrior jumps up to attack the couple but they move out of the way. Jack spends some time fighting the tiger for a bit a dodging attacks, while Kai fought another warrior. In the mix of fighting the first warrior that had grabbed the couple's weapons had lost hold of it so Kai used the opportunity to summon her Bo staff back to her. Jack also seeing his sword there for the taking maneuvers his way to his sword.

He almost reaches his sword but is stopped by another warrior with multiple arms and weapons, Kai seeing he partner in trouble intercepts the fight. While Kai was now fighting the warrior with multiple arms Jack was fighting the tiger again he manages to defeat the tiger his essence now floating back up to Demongo, much to his angry. The rest of the warriors started attacking the two at once but one by one they too were defeated.

"You cannot win, samurai and warrior. I am more powerful." Demongo states.

"A power fueled only by the strength and skill of the great warriors whose essence you have stolen, Demongo! Without that, you are nothing." Jack yells back at him.

"You are wise, samurai." Demongo states. "But who cares? When l have your essence l will be the greatest warrior." Jack moves to attack Demongo but he gets out of the way, the couple then start searching for Demongo wondering where he disappeared to.

The couple looks to see more skulls falling but instead of new warriors to fight they find themselves facing the same warriors they just defeated.

"It cannot be." Kai says in shock.

"We just defeated them!" Jack states.

"Yes you did. But they are essence." Demongo stated smugly. "You cannot defeat essence. You may defeat them again and again and again. But l command the essence of thousands of such powerful warriors. Even ones as mighty as you two cannot defeat them all."

"We shall see." Jack says determined to win.

Demongo summons another skull and Titan rejoins the fight as well. Jack and Kai keep battling the fallen warriors, even though the couple always managed to defeat their opponents they always keep coming back to fight again. It didn't matter if Jack slashed one with his sword or Kai knocked another out they always came back.

"It is futile." Demongo states to the couple as the tiger warrior jumps up and slashes Jack's kimono exposing his chest causing Jack to rip off the rest of the top part of his kimono. Kai fights the other warrior while Jack finishes off the tiger. When the two are done they both turn to look at Demongo once again with determination. "You two still think you can win." Demongo says with a laugh. "How commendable. How futile." With that Demongo releases more skulls than ever and it wasn't long before the couple had an army of fallen warriors rushing towards them. Jack grabbed Kai's free hand and the two started running until they found a place to take cover from the army and catch their breathe.

"So many." Jack says panting, Kai nods her head in agreement.

"This will be one for the history books." Kai says. Another warrior tried to attack them while they were hiding but Kai already sensing it took it out with her Bo staff. This of course brings the essence back to Demongo which allowed him to know where they were.

"There, you fools. There." Demongo commands pointing towards Jack and Kai. "Destroy. Destroy Samurai Jack and Kai! I want his essence!" With that Jack and Kai jump in to fight off the army of warriors determined not to lose to Demongo. One by one no matter how hard the fallen warriors tried they could not win against Jack and Kai. The two fought and defeated hundreds of warriors each much to Demongo's joy. "Yes! Yes! Fight! Fight! It's just a matter of time, samurai and warrior."

"Only a matter of time before our defeat." Jack says as he continues to fight more warriors. "There must be a way to defeat Demongo."

"Well, we already know that without the essences he would be nothing." Kai states thinking as she takes out another warrior.

"So we must find way to stop Demongo from using the essences." Jack states.

"Essence of trapped warriors." Kai eyes widen as realization comes upon her.

"Trapped essence. Free the essence, Demongo has no power. How do we free the essence?" Jack askes thinking out loud.

"From within." Kai states now looking at the skulls on Demongo's chest. Jack and Kai share a look and when Jack slashes the tiger warrior once again they both grab onto his essence and are pulled inside to where Demongo stores the essences of the fallen warriors. "We better get to work Jack!" Kai states as she starts freeing the essences.

"And l free your essence!" Jack states determining following Kai's example. It didn't take long for the two to free all the essence which cause Demongo to be weak.

"My essence. Where is all my essence?" Demongo questions weakly only to realize that the warriors were now free thanks to Jack and Kai. Jack and Kai looked on from above as the once fallen warriors moved to surround Demongo. "No!" With that Kai and Jack begin continuing on their journey very sure that Demongo would get what he deserved.

"Jack, you ever wonder why your Kimono tends to get ripped so much?" Kai askes as they walked away.

"I never really thought to question it." Jack states back.

"I guess it doesn't matter anyway." Kai said with a shrug.

"Why not?" Jack askes turning to look at her.

"Seriously Jack?" Kai says with a teasing smile.

"Oh right that." Jack says now blushing as Kai gave a small chuckle at him.

Aku pov

From his throne Aku could see that the once great Demongo was unfortunately defeated by his two most hated warriors. In the most ironic way Demongo was now trapped in a small skull as Aku looked down upon him. "You have failed me, Demongo." Aku states plainly.

"No, master. Please forgive me." Demongo says pleaing for his life.

Aku pretends to be thinking about it for a while until. "No." he states as he crushes the skull. "Once again the saga continues."

Kai pov (again)

It has been about a week since the whole Demongo thing and now Jack and I are at a western theme city. You know I don't think I will ever stop being amazed by how many places like to have a theme period in time. Any way we were here because we heard on the grape vine that the owner of this saloon could have information for us that dealt with time travel.

Jack and Kai had just entered the saloon after seeing two man get tossed out from what was now broken windows. The two shared a look and continued on regardless not at all taken by surprised, the couple look to see a small man sitting at a stool by the bar. "I thought l told you bums to stay out of here." He yelled not even looking up to see who entered. "Unless you want some more, eh?"

"Well isn't he just a ray of sunshine." Kai says sarcastically rolling her eyes.

"Are you the proprietor of this establishment?" Jack askes the man while he sat down.

"That would be me." The man answers back.

"I am Sam-"Jack begins but is interrupted.

"I know who you are. A man could get rich selling your skin, boy." The man says pulling a knife from behind his back trying to catch Jack by surprise it failed badly for him.

"I would say nice try but…" Kai says rolling her eyes again. "I guess you're new at this."

"Perhaps you can get rich selling something to me instead." Jack tells the man after he finishes disarming him and dropping a bag of gold and jewels on the table.

"Sell you what, exactly?" The man asked eyeing the bag.

"Information." Jack states plainly pulling out a map from under his sleeve and setting it on the table.

"Hey, how much money you say you had there, my friend? Heh heh heh!" Just as the couple thought the man spilled out as much information as he could remember, which was unsurprising to them men like him were always easily bought. "A pleasure doing business with you." The man greedily whispers as he watch the couple leave his saloon. But unfortunately for him his troubles were not over.

It was a little while later when the man was sweeping his saloon that he was visited by perhaps the most feared bounty hunter in all the west Ezekiel Clench. "Huh? Wait! I know why you're here." The man stammers nervously. "You seek the samurai and princess, yes? You aim to collect the bounty on them, eh? I would like to help you, Senor Clench but they has already left." The man pleas as Clench walks closer to him. "They took the train to Cordova. Y-You still might catch them if you hurry." Just as quickly as he appeared Clench was gone much to the man's relief. The man was all set to close up his saloon when a foot stopped him from closing the door. "Hey, look, we're closed, all right? Cause l just had a really tough day?" The man begins until he sees the beautiful southern belle at his door.

"I'm sorry. Were you closin'?" She asked from outside the saloon.

"No, no. Come on in." The man says eagerly from behind his bar. "Sit down. Uh, what can l get you?"

"I'd love an ice-cold ginger ale if you've got one." The woman says sweetly walking up to the bar. "Actually, I'm very curious about the conversation you had with that big, tall gentleman that just left."

"Oh. I guess you like them big, tall types, eh?" the man says sadly.

"Well, l ought to. I used to be married to one." The woman answers.

Meanwhile back with Kai and Jack the two were just boarding the train that they had almost missed. Unknown to them Clench had spotted the two and was making his way towards them. Though Clench had to deal with some security so he had to find another way to jump on board the train, while the woman from earlier was already aboard the train with Jack and Kai. After forcing someone to drive in the direction of the train Clench would soon be on his way.

"Your tea, sir. Your tea, sir." The waiter kept saying until the couple woke up.

"Thank you." Jack says after clearing his throat and taking the cup of tea.

"And your gin, miss." The waiter says handing Kai the shot of gin.

"Thanks." Kai says politely, as she watches some woman wink at Jack as she passed by where Jack and Kai were sitting. Floozy! Though Jack seemed to pay the woman no mind Kai had a bad feeling about her.

Clench after forcing someone to drive next to the train had finally been able to jump on board, he had found the cart that the couple were sleeping in when he was met with.. "Josephine? What in tarnation are you doin' here?" Clench says in confusion.

"Well, it's nice to see you, too, Ezekiel." Josephine answers back.

"Aw, shoot. There ain't never been nothin' nice about you, woman." Clench tells her.

"Now, now let's not get nasty, darlin'." Josephine says sweetly.

"Don't call me ''darlin'." Clench says in angry.

"Well, then don't act like a fool!" Josephine scolded. "I know what you're up to. You're after the bounty on that samurai and princess." She says knowingly.

"Well the samurai yes, the princess I'll leave her be mama always said never to man handle a girl. Especially one as pretty as her, what business is it of yours?" Clench says glaring at Josephine.

"I want in!" Josephine states.

"Pshh! No." Clench says back to her trying to move her aside.

"You need me." Josephine tried to insist which Clench ignored. "He's better than you!"

"Ain't nobody better than me, woman. You ought to know that. Besides, the court says you ain't even supposed to come within 150 feet of me so back off!" Clench states as he walks towards Jack and Kai.

The couple had just woken up suddenly to the sound of Clench slamming the door as he entered their cart, it wasn't long before Clench had made it over to where the couple had been hoping to have a peaceful train ride.

"Looking for a seat?" Jack says forcefully.

"Yep. Yours." Clench says as he leers down at Jack. "I'm gonna make a lot of money cashin' in on your hide."

"I hear that often, but only from poor men." Jack says plainly not even turning to look at him.

"Hmm. Well, l got bills to pay and l done already addressed the envelopes." Clench says with a smile.

"I hope you have yet to stamp the postage on your parcels for you-" Jack begins to say standing up to face Clench only to be punched in the face by Clench who had metal hands.

"Consider 'em stamped." Clench says gleefully to Jack.

"I didn't think when I explained to you about the mailing system that you would be using it for this reason but I guess it works." Kai says from her seat clearly amused by the exchange.

"Well little lady, maybe you should have taught him not to mouth off." Clench states to Kai. "But I guess a pretty little thing like you can only teach a guy like him so much."

"Oh, you have no idea." Kai says narrowing her eyes at Clench as Jack stands back up.

Clench moves to punch Jack once again only for Jack to dodge it, the two keep fighting inside the cart causing some people to get hit in the crossfire including a farmer and his chickens. It was becoming clear to Jack that he needed to move the battle somewhere else or innocent people could get hurt. So Jack opens a door and jumps to roof of the train, Clench was racing towards Jack shooting the gun that was one of the metal hands up towards the roof as Jack dodge the bullets and ran towards another cart that carried logs on it. Clench had reached the door and opened it to start shooting at Jack only to run out of bullets. Jack then draws out his sword and Clench laughed and changed his metal hands into a large knifes and ran up on the logs to fight Jack.

"Heh heh heh! Just like my pa used to say on a cold mornin'- Let's get to work." Clench says as he runs up to fight Jack wielding his knifes to fight against the samurai.

The two keep fighting neither getting to much over their opponent, until Jack managed to knock Clench down much to his anger. Clench uses one of his metal hands to shot a ball of lighting and runs up to Jack grabbing his sword causing Jack to get shocked badly. Clench's small victory was short lived when Jack used his free hand to touch Clench causing him to feel the pain as well and knocking them both out. Clench now getting back up sees Jack still passed out and moves in to strike him with his knife but much to his surprise Jack gets out of the way, causing his knife to get stuck on the log. Jack uses his chance to break the chains holding the logs in place and removing his geta he gets back up on the logs and starts rolling the logs under his feet which causes Clench to fall off.

"Whoa! Whoa! Unh! Whoa! Galdang durn it" Clench yells as he falls down if Jack had stayed long enough he would have seen Clench barely holding on to the cart and Josephine helping him up.

Jack returns back to his seat to see his partner waiting for him. "Well that didn't take you long." Kai states evenly standing up. "Well now that all the excitement is over I'm gonna use the bathroom."

Jack just nods his head at her sure that with the bounty hunter gone that they could make the rest of their journey in peace. It wasn't long before Jack had settle back into his seat that Josephine had showed up standing in front of the now empty seat.

"Hey Excuse me. May l?" Josephine says pointing at the seat.

"Yes. Of course." Jack says politely but he was unsure if he really should allow this woman to sit there, especially with Kai gone but he was raised to be polite.

"Nice day, isn't it?" Josephine says sweetly as she takes her seat trying to get Jack's attention as he had turned to look out the window.

"Yes." Jack responds kindly.

"A bit hot, though." Josephine says taking out a fan to fan herself.

"Uh, yes, it is." Jack says nervously wiping some sweat from his forehead as he said this. It could be the sudden heat or this woman but he really hoped Kai would return soon.

"Do you know where the best seat in the house is?" Josephine says sweetly leaning in closer to him.

"No. Where?" Jack asked back.

"On the roof." Josephine answers him while pointing up towards the roof.

"Really?" Jack said surprised at the very idea.

"Sure. It's got plenty of fresh air, 360 degree views and it's very private." She says the last part seductively. "Well l think I'm gonna go up on the roof." She says after watching how Jack completely missed or ignored her signals as he looks out the window once more.

"Yes. Ok. It was nice speaking to you, ma'am." Jack says nodding his head watching her leave.

"You're not just gonna let a lady go up on the roof unescorted, are you?" Josephine says as she stands in front of the door.

Jack looks around thinking more like hoping Kai would be coming back from the bathroom. "Of course not." Jack says standing up and following after Josephine. Kai will understand…it could be dangerous there could be more bounty hunters.

At least that's what he told himself so that he could leave, little did he know that Kai had just made it back from the bathroom just in time to see Jack and Josephine climb up the train's roof.

Where is he going with that floozy! Kai thought darkly as she quietly followed behind the two.

"Isn't it beautiful?" Josephine states as she and Jack sit on the roof.

"Yes, it is." Jack says although he wasn't so sure he agreed but he wanted to be polite which is why he didn't say anything when Josephine wrapped her arm around his arm.

"I wanted to thank you for saving us all from that awful, terrible, ugly old bandit earlier." Josephine says sweetly. "You were so brave."

"Thank you." Jack says back.

"Ooh! And so strong, too!" Josephine says as she squeezes the muscles on his arm causing Jack to laugh.

From below standing at the door Kai was just getting angrier and angrier as she listened to the two of them laugh. How dare that fucking floozy that jezebel touch my….oh there will be hell for this.

Jack was too busy laughing it up with Josephine to notice Clench coming up from behind him until he pulls Jack up and squeezes him tightly. "Y'all look so cute up here on the veranda l figured I'd fix you up some lemonade- fresh-squeezed." With the word squeezed Clench squeezed Jack even harder.

Luckily for Jack he managed to escape Clench's hold on him. "Stand back, ma'am. Once again this bandit has reared his ugly head." Jack says moving to protect Josephine as he is about to draw his sword when Josephine puts him in a choke hold.

"Well, l guess love is blind 'cause that ugly head didn't keep me from marrying him." Josephine states as she holds on to his neck.

"Who you callin' ugly?" Clench says as he punches Jack in the stomach while Josephine continues to holds his neck.

Ha! I knew that floozy was up to something. Now should I go up there and help Jack or should I let him deal with it on his own. Kai ponders as she hears what is going on from where she was standing. Who am I kidding!

"Hands off!" Kai shouts as she takes Josephine by surprise and flips her off Jack and throws her towards Clench causing them both to tumble. This gave Jack a chance to clear his throat and pull out his sword. "Jezebel!"

"Are you talking to me?!" Josephine says glaring up at Kai.

"No, I'm talking to the other whore house reject standing on top of a train roof." Kai says back narrowing her eyes at the woman.

"Whore House Reject!" Josephine screeched getting up. "Listen here missy just because you're not pretty enough to keep your man in check doe-"Josephine was interrupted when Kai suddenly punched her in the face knocking her and Clench who was just starting to stand up again back some.

"Check that!" Kai says darkly pulling out her Bo staff.

"Looks like we'll have to stick those there jackrabbits like we did that old boy back in Kansas City." Clench says as he and Josephine arm themselves.

"Yes, darlin'. I see your point." Josephine says as her umbrella becomes a sword.

The two couples stare each other down until Josephine runs up to them with her umbrella sword she and Kai begin to fight as Jack fights with Clench with his metal hand knifes. The fighting kept going back and forth sometimes Jack fighting Josephine sometimes Kai fighting Clench. It was at a time Jack was facing Josephine that he lost his sword, Kai seeing this managed to knock Clench to Josephine and while they were down the two raced after his sword.

"Ooh! Uhh! They're gettin' away!" Josephine yells in frustration.

"Don't worry, woman." Clench says changing his hand into a gun. "I'm on it." With that he started shooting at the couple.

"Don't let him get to his sword, you idiot!" Josephine yelled as she watch the couple dodge the bullets she decides it would be best if she started shooting guns herself. "A woman's work is never done. Dagnabbit! Can't you shoot straight?"

"I don't see you makin' no daylight in their broadside." Clench states as the two continue shooting.

Although the couple were able to dodge the bullets they were still unable to grab Jack's sword. Eventually they had to move themselves to the side of the train in order to avoid the bullets.

"They went over the side! Come on we've got them now." Josephine states as the two start heading closer towards where they thought Jack and Kai were.

"Why did I even bother helping you?!" Kai says as she glares darkly at Jack as they hanged from the side. "I should have let you take care of your DATE and her baggage alone."

"Date?!" Jack says looking at her in confusion shaking his head. "Kai no I would never-"

"Not now!" Kai whispers as she sees Clench standing up from the roof above them.

"Get on up here where's l can shoot you, you little chipmunks." Clench says just standing to where the couple was holding on. "Consarnit, l can't get a bead on them." Clench says as he takes notice of the fact that he couldn't shot from where he was. Josephine in the meantime had gone inside the cart and began shooting at the couple from windows. The couple managed to move from the side and had taken cover near where the train's engine was.

"Hey, fool! Don't shoot up the engine! Elsewise, we'll be stuck out here in the desert!" Josephine scolded as Clench shot at the area that had the engine. Jack and Kai used that time to also get away from the engine also knowing that there would be a lot of problems if the train was stopped. After fighting the bounty hunters again the couple managed to get towards Jack's sword only to be caught in a net while their backs were turned.

"The South shall rise again!" Josephine yells. "Well, now, ain't that a purty little package tied up with a bow?"

"Yup. Hogtied, just like that pig we caught back in Gower Gulch." Clench says as he and Josephine leer down at Jack and Kai.

"Ha! Yes, sirree. There ain't a polecat around who can slip through the grip of the Clenches. I reckon we're just a pair of aces, ain't we?" Josephine says smiling as she looks at Clench.

"Yup. Just like old times, Josie. Just like old times." Clench says happily.

"You know, Zeke all this excitement has got me to wonderin'." Josephine starts to say catching Clench by surprise by her seductive voice. "Why'd we ever split up? Workin' together again stirs up all them good old feelings."

"Well, Josie you know l was always powerful sweet on you, but-"Clench begins to explain smiling back.

"Aw, but nothin', Zeke. I loved watchin' the way you handled that cagey old samurai and princess." Josephine says again sweetly. "You're just so brave and so strong. You make a girl feel all aflutter." Josephine says rubbing her hands on his chest. "Don't you see, Zeke? It's just like Kansas City all over again. And what with this huge bounty we're about to collect l could end up twice as rich! Ha ha ha ha ha!" Josephine laughs as she pushes Clench off the train while he wasn't paying attention not noticing that Jack and Kai's net was attached to Clench.

"Dagburnit, Josie! You consarn, framalandin', flamdanglin' snake in-sheep's-wool- over-my-eyes trick-up-her-sleeve whoo-hoo witchy woman!" Clench yells as he falls down.

Josephine continues to laugh gleefully not at all noticing the net get pulled towards the sword cutting the couple free. Jack quickly throws some chains under Josephine's feet causing her to fall over the train after Clench as well.

"So long floozy!" Kai says darkly as she waves goodbye.

"So much for that peaceful train ride." Jack states as picks up his sword.

"A shame that your date had to end so badly isn't it." Kai says turning to glare at Jack.

"Kai, I swear I didn't," Jack begins to plea.

"I don't want to hear it Jack." Kai says turning away and heading back to her seat dismissing him.

Jack pov

It's been one week since we've seen those bounty hunters on the train. This has been perhaps the worse week I've ever been through. Kai will barely look at me, won't speak unless it is really necessary, and worse of all she won't touch me for any reason rather it be intimate or cuddling as we sleep. I fear that this will drive me mad…I miss her.

Jack and Kai were eating quietly in a bar, when they took notice of some bandits huddled around some wanted posters of them. It was becoming clear that these bandits were looking to collect the bounty on them so their dinner was going to have to be cut short. The couple were fighting their way out of the bar they when to their surprise they came face to face with the Scotsman.

"Remember me? Ha ha!" Scotsman says staring down at the couple with a hearty laugh. "Watch it!" He shouts as he uses his shield to stop the bullets from hitting the couple while their back was turned. Scotsman pulls out a bomb and throws it at the bandits. "Time to go." Scotsman says as he and the couple run out of the bar before it blows up. "Sorry to cut your fight short with those bounty hunter robots but l got a wee problem." Scotsman says as they run away from the bar. "Me wife's been kidnapped." The three take cover as the bar exploded.

"You are married?" Jack askes in surprise as he looks at the Scotsman.

"Aye. To the most beautiful bonny lass that ever blessed the ground with her footstep. I must save her before the moon is full." Scotsman says as they stand up again.

"That is tomorrow night." Jack states. "Where is she?"

"The Castle of Boon. The Celtic Master of the Hunt plans to devour her." Scotsman explains to them.

"That's awful!" Kai gasped.

"Aye, and she's just so dainty and sweet and frayed so easy! And the Master of the Hunt is so very scary!" Scotsman cries worried.

"Try and calm yourself." Jack says as he watches the man cry on his shoulder.

"I cannot, l can't save her on me own. And l am forbidden by ancient custom to seek help from warriors of me own clan. I alone am no match for the army of Celtic demons infesting the castle. But there is a loophole in the ancient custom. Me clan Druid rolled the bones. They said: ''Seek the help of strangers. You two are the only strangers l know, and you two are as strange as they come, lass and laddie. And powerful too. Together, you two and me we could save my wife before it's too late." Scotsman finishes explaining as he continues to cry once again.

"How can l refuse a friend in need." Jack says showing that he agreed to helping so that he would stop crying.

"Yes we will help. It is so nice to see a man so loyal to the one he is with, searching the globe just so that he could save his wife. I haven't seen a man like that in a long time." Says a deadpan Kai, while the Scotsman looks back and forth at the couple now confused.

"Kai," Jack begins knowing from the statement that Kai was still upset with him.

"Nope, haven't seen one in a long, long time." Kai continues on ignoring him.

"Let's just go." Jack sighs darkly, having the Scotsman lead the way.

"Aye right then, l knew l could count on you two." Scotsman says uncomfortably not sure what the matter with the couple was. "Well, Time's a-wasting lets go to the Highlands!"

As the three were running to the Highlands Scotsman was explaining to the couple what his wife was like. "Me wife has blond hair like spun gold smooth as silk. Sometimes she lets me brush it." I would give anything to have Kai let me even be near her again. Jack thinks sadly as he listen to his friend. "Her eyes are like the glittering blue sea. I can stare into her eyes for days." I miss the way Kai's honey eyes tinkled when I made her laugh. "And her voice would make angels jealous, such divine, melodious tunes and her lips, like two sweet roses." I miss the way Kai use to happily sing before bed and her lips always taste as sweet as honey, every time Scotsman would say something nice about his wife Jack couldn't help but remember how cold Kai was being with him lately. "And can she tell a joke. And she does this thing with her ear. It makes me laugh. Did l mention her hair?"

"Yes!" Jack answers darkly as the three continue to run, not seeing the look Kai was giving him.

"Be nice Jack, he clearly really loves and only cares for his wife." Kai tells him with narrowed eyes. Jack's aura is all over the place, mostly just sad though.

"We've arrived. The Highlands." Scotsman says pointing to the Highland once they reached the destination. "It's so beautiful, just like me wife." Scotsman says staring at his home only to break out in tears once again forcing Jack into a hug as he cries.

"Hey! Calm down we came all this way to help your wife remember." Kai says trying to get him to settle down.

"I'm sorry, l just get overcome thinking about her." Scotsman says trying to calm down but failing. "How can l live without me bonny wife?" Scotsman shouts as he continues to cry.

"I suggest we waste no time crying then." Jack states hoping to get his friend to stop crying.

"He's right standing around crying will not get us anywhere." Kai says hoping the Scotsman would listen.

"Aye. I'm coming, sweetie!" He shouts as he takes off running followed after by the couple.

After some time running around the Highlands the three started to approach a castle. "There." Scotsman begins pointing at the castle. "My clan castle. We can rest there before attacking the Castle of Boon." Once the three of them had reached the door the Scotsman decided to kick it open. "I'm back, you Gaul Druid totties." He shouts out. The room then erupts with cheers from the clan all large red headed kilt wearing men. Two of them play the bagpipes as the Scotsman beamed under the attention of his clan's men. "Go on. I'm just here for a wee bit." All was merry and full of cheer until Jack and Kai walked in after him and suddenly the cheering and merriment stopped and the couple were surrounded by the men's swords.

"Hold fast, laddies. They're with me." Scotsman says.

"Right now, GET YOUR SWORDS OUT OF MY FACE!" Kai shouts at the men to which they quickly put their swords away. "Thank you."

"They're the strangers that will help me." Scotsman explained much to his clan's confusion.

"Him really? The lass I can understand she seems very fit for battle." One of the clansmen states eyeing Kai.

"We are honored to meet you all." Jack states calmly bowing his head although he didn't like the way the man was eyeing his Kai.

"What's he doing?" One of them asked clearly confused about the bowing.

"Don't know. Maybe he dropped something." Another one guessed.

"Take a look at them pajamas he has on." Another says.

"Aye, he's a strange one, all right." Another thinks out loud.

"Must be close to his bedtime." Another says.

"Or he had not done his laundry." Another guessed as they all start to laugh at Jack.

"That's enough! Let's have a little respect." Scotsman says walking up to Jack and Kai.

"But he is wearing a dress." One of them says.

"Shut it! And you too! This man is the bravest man l have ever known. And the lass is not to be messed with either too. We faced Aku's bounty hunters together and together we'll fight the Celtic demons destroy the Master of the Hunt and rescue me wife." Scotsman yells out and the whole clan starts cheering. "I think they like you now, laddie." Scotsman says smiling at Jack.

"Well, you would think that a room full of man wearing skirts would be more welcoming of a kimono." Kai states to Jack.

The clansmen returned back to their merriment and the couple watched from their seats as they played music again and danced. It wasn't long before someone came in with a large plate. "Here comes the food." Scotsman says as the person places the plate in front of Jack.

"This is food?" Jack says as he eyes the thing on the plate.

"Aye. It's haggis." Someone answered as the clansmen laughed.

"And what is haggis?" Jack asked curiously holding his nose.

"Sheep's stomach stuffed with meat and barley!" The clansmen shouted at once laughing.

"No thank you!" Kai says pushing the plate aside.

"Stop!" Some shouts from out of nowhere.

"This person must be important." Kai says looking in the direction of the person who spoke.

"How do you know this?" Jack asked.

"Because of the flash of lightening just now." Kai answered.

"That's Cathbad, the clan Druid." The Scotsman tells the two as the Druid started speaking in a manner that neither could understand.

"What language is that?" Jack asked.

"He speaks our most ancient tongue." Scotsman says as the Druid continued to speak. "Basically, the Druid thinks you're a softy. So as not to disgrace the clan, you must pass the test of manhood."

"Well, what does that mean, ''softy''?" Jack askes his friend.

"They don't know you like l know you. Look, you got nothing to worry about." The Scotsman says confidently. "You'll pass."

"Well I sure hope so seeing as how we came all this way." Kai adds in.

"Luckily for you missy, the Druid didn't ask you to pass a test." Scotsman tells her.

"What is this test exactly?" Jack asked.

"You gotta throw a rock." Scotsman says plainly. "You can throw a rock, can't you?"

Cut to everyone outside so that they could watch Jack throw a rock. The clansmen looked excited wondering if Jack would pass the test, Kai looked bored clearly thinking it was a waste of time. They had just watch one of the clansmen throw a rock and now it would be Jack's turn.

"We're in good shape. Angus' throw stank." Scotsman says after watching Angus throw the rock a good distance. "Just throw this wee stone past Angus', and you'll pass the test."

"Is this necessary?" Jack askes the Scotsman as he holds the heavy stone.

"Aye, I'm afraid so." Scotsman tells him. With that Jack took his place and throw the stone that he could barely lifted it barely passed his feet and the clan started laughing at him. "But that was his warm-up throw!" Scotsman pleas and the Druid says something else. "Cathbad says l have to find a stronger stranger. Me poor wife will be an ingredient in stew." Scotsman begins to cry once more.

"No, she won't." Jack says plainly as he started walking towards where he saw a large clansmen speaking to his Kai.

"Guess you're worried about whether or not the laddie will pass? Aye." Angus asked her.

"Nope." Kai said plainly not paying Angus any mind.

"I don't get how a fine lassie like you could with a guy like him? I mean look at him he can barely hold that wee rock!" Angus says. "No, a fine lass like you should be with someone strong and mighty like…"

"Excuse me." Jack says approaching the two of them. "How many stones do you weigh?"

"Twenty stone." Angus answers smugly. "What's it to you, fancy pants?"

"You are a mighty fellow." Jack says calmly almost too calmly Kai notes but doesn't say anything.

"Aye, that l am." Angus says enjoying the compliment shaking Jacks hand. When suddenly Jack starts twisting one of his fingers using momentum to lift him up and toss him in the air. Angus hits his head on the stone before falling on the other side and then the whole clan started cheering once again.

"You did it!" The Scotsman happily tells Jack lifting him up on his shoulder as the Druid speaks over the cheering. "He said you pass. And don't think I didn't notice the warning you gave Angus for flirting with your lass!"

"I thought it was something like that." Jack says smugly.

"Right then good for you Jack." Kai says sarcastically rolling her eyes and walking away.

"Ok, what's wrong with you two?!" The Scotsman asked Jack wondering what happened to the happy couple.

"Well, it all started when…."Jack then goes on to explain to his friend what happened and why Kai was mad at him.

"I'm afraid I can see why the lass is mad at ya laddie. Did you tell her you were sorry at least?" The Scotsman asked.

"But I did not do anything wrong!" Jack defends.

"Now what does that have to do with anything?! Just say you're sorry! It doesn't matter if you were right or wrong!" The Scotsman yells much to Jack's confusion Scotsman just sighs slapping a hand to his face giving up on explaining it to Jack for now. "Come on we got to go now. I'll explain it to you after we save me wife!" The Scotsman says still carrying Jack begins to walk through the crowd of the still cheering clansmen.

"Is your clan always that wild?" Jack asked as the clansmen continues their cheering and chanting 'Stranger', Kai noticing the Scotsman leaving with Jack begins to follow them.

"Aye. That's why l never stay at home. I'm the mellow one." Scotsman explained.

"Yeah, you know when we meet you practically screamed mellow." Kai says sarcastically which the Scotsman missed.

"Aye." Scotsman says still carrying Jack.

"You can put me down now." Jack says after a while.

"Oh, no. I'm carrying you all the way there. It's the least I can do." Scotsman insisted.

"It is quite unnecessary." Jack argues.

"Shut it!" Scotsman yelled and then started laughing.

Kai just laughed as she watched the two. Their bromance is so amusing!

After walking for a while the three found themselves in front of a castle that seemed to really like to decorate everything with skeletons and skulls.

"The Castle of Boon." Scotsman tells the couple as the three stand in front of the scary looking castle. "All right, let's charge!" Scotsman says pulling out his sword getting ready to run into the castle.

"What?! You can't be this foolish!" Kai exclaims in surprise as she looks at the Scotsman.

"Wait, friend." Jack says halting him. "It will not be that easy." Jack explains as Kai nods her head in agreement.

"But there are no guards." Scotsman says looking at the unguarded entrance.

"So it would seem." Jack begins picking up a rock and throwing it at the pathway all of a sudden seven Celtic demons jumped out.

"But looks are always deceiving." Kai finishes as the three look at the Celtic demons.

"But there is only seven. We can take seven easy." Scotsman says.

"Seven because l tossed a rock." Jack states.

"But?!" Scotsman tries to plea.

"There are more Celtic demons much more then we can see with our eyes. But aura cannot be hidden so I can sense them all and they are hungry." Kai adds in as Jack nodded his head in agreement this was one of those times that having a partner that could read aura was very helpful.

"If we were to assault the castle we would surely be overwhelmed by vast numbers of those things." Jack finishes explaining.

"Fine. Then how do we get in?" Scotsman asked. Following Jack's plan the three scale the castle easily seeing how the side was a giant skeleton. "If l fall to me doom, tell my wife l loved her." The Scotsman says as the three warriors continued to climb clearly afraid right at the moment he didn't think it was safe.

"I'll be sure to do that, right after I tell her sorry for throwing you over the side in the first place!" Kai says rolling her eyes annoyed. "Come on that bridge was worse than this!" After a while the three had managed to slip into the castle.

"Are we gonna sneak around here all night, or are we gonna fight?" Scotsman asked wondering why they were still hiding themselves as they moved about the castle.

"It would be unwise to seek a battle before we have secured your wife." Jack explains stopping for a moment where they see more Celtic demon in a room with a giant pot boiling.

"Which is pretty much rescue 101." Kai adds in.

"What? Oh, no. We have to get her out of here. They're already stirring the broth." Scotsman says as the three watch one of the demons stiring the pot. "And my wife is gonna be the main ingredient before the moon rises."

"Don't worry we will find her." Kai tries to reassure the Scotsman. "Besides full moons are my specialties!" Kai finishes saying confidently.

"She is not wrong there." Jack nods his head in agreement. Jack had already learned a while ago that while much as Kai's power may be fueled by the sun, a full moon made her even more powerful. She would have vast amounts of energy those few days and nights during a full moon. Sadly it looks like some of that energy is not going to go towards the activities that I enjoy tonight at least until Kai stops being upset with me.

"If we split up, we could cover more ground." The Scotsman suggested."But we should not separate in case of trouble. Perhaps, then, we should disguise ourselves as demons. What do you think?"

"I believe l have found your wife." Jack states having been looking around the castle and taking note of shadowy figure of a woman up inside a tower.

"Where?" Scotsman asked looking around.

"That tower. In the window." Jack states pointing up to the window.

"Yea, that might be it but we should be very cautious it could be a-" Kai begins only to see the Scotsman take off.

"It's her. Oh, my beauty. Come on." Scotsman yells excitedly as he continues to run towards the tower.

"Trick." Kai finishes saying deadpanned watching the man go.

"We had better go after him." Jack states running towards the tower as well. The couple luckily were able to catch up with the Scotsman and calmed him down enough so that they could sneak around the castle to the tower unnoticed to the Celtic demons. When the three finally reached the tower Jack used his sword to cut the bone that was being used to keep the Scotsman's wife in.

"My buttercup! My love bunny! I'm here to save thee. Bonny button? Muffin." The Scotsman says as the door slowly creeks open to reveal the Scotsman wife who besides looking very angry looked the opposite of what the Scotsman describe, Kai eyes were widen in shock and Jack had a look of pure horror on his face.

"Don't you ''muffin'' me, you ripe end of a baboon! You disappear without a word for two years, only to show up because I'm kidnapped, leaving me in this sty for a month till you get the gall enough to come save me! Wait till the last minute! What have you been doing, you pimple-faced dilly worm? Some husband you are." Scotsman's wife yells out.

My god I DIDN'T THINK there was another living person that could yell a bunch of insults like that without choking for lack of air. Kai thinks as she and Jack continue to watch as the Scotsman's wife continues to yell at her husband, who seemed to be enjoying every minute of it if the deep dreamy look didn't give it away.

"Oh, big warrior. I think no. I'll tell you where you've been. Tossing rocks with your good-for-nothing dullards. Too busy to save the love of your-" The Scotsman's wife takes as pause as she just noticed Jack and Kai taking the time to examine what Jack was wearing. "Now I've seen everything. Is this who you've been wasting your time with? Some wiry maypole wearing an ugly dress and tasteless slippers? I swear on chatelain's mighty chest hairs I've got wooden spoons brighter than you! And to think l married the only Scot in Scotland who'd bring two candlesticks one of which is in a slip to his wife's rescue instead of a whole clan of bumbling brutes."

How….how is he married to such a women! Jack ponders as he is torn between being insulted by the large loud woman and wondering how his friend could continue to have that dreamy look on his face as she insulted him and his friends.

"No, l get just three bumbling brutes." Scotsman's wife says. "Well, two bumbling brute and some kind of fashion-inept sheepherder."

"But, lovely lump, the Druid said-" The Scotsman begins to plea.

"The Druid? Who listens to a man wearing an ant skull on his head?" The Scotsman's wife shouted.

"But he-" The Scotsman tries to explain again.

"Shut it!" She yells at her husband again.

"Yes dear." The Scotsman agrees.

"She does make a good point." Kai states which earned her a look from the other three in the room. "What?! Why would you be forced to go searching for help that you might not have been able to find in time, when you've got a small army at home already?" Kai states with a shrug.

"Well then at least someone here has her brains." The Scotsman wife says sweetly to Kai beaming at her. "I guess that's why you needed to bring the poor delicate girl, putting her in danger for no reason!" The Scotsman wife says yelling back at her husband.

"We should go." Jack says having had enough of his friend's wife.

"Oh, what a grand idea. I suppose some of the girl's brains is rubbing off on you!" Scotsman's wife yells.

"It is just common sense." Jack states plainly.

"It is, huh? Well, how are you planning to get me out?" She shouts.

"I hope silently." Jack states now annoyed again.

"Well, l stubbed my toe. I cannot walk. It hurts." Scotsman's wife complained.

"Oh, poor sugar pot." Scotsman cooed at his wife kissing her feet.

"Got any ideas, Aristotle?" Scotsman wife asked Jack.

And with that the Scotsman and Jack carry his wife out of the tower in the hopes of getting her safely out while Kai walked closely behind them.

"Are you sure you don't want me to do a healing spell on your toe?" Kai asked once again.

"Oh no dear, I'm sure you've done all the work so far already." Scotsman's wife replies kindly to Kai.

"How are you doing, puddle-ducky?" Scotsman asked his wife.

"This rescue stinks! I've never been so humiliated in me life! I have a dullard for a husband with a scrawny tree for a sidekick!" His wife complained. "I'd be better off saving meself." As they were making a turn down some stairs Jack loses his hold briefly.

"Forgive me." Jack apologizes.

"You almost dropped me, you gown-wearing fashion reject." Scotsman's wife shouts at him.

"Maybe I should use a floating spell so that they wouldn't have to risk dropping you?" Kai asked almost shyly.

"Oh no dear, it would do these lazy brutes some good having to actually do something in this rescue!" She shouted again.

"Perhaps if we trade places." Jack suggested.

"Aye." The Scotsman agrees and so they switch places.

"Oh, that's grand. But does me worm-brained husband care that a stranger can peek up me dress? No, he don't care a speck." She continues to complain. Kai didn't care to correct her it really wasn't necessary.

"Is that better?" Jack asked turning himself around so that he would be unable to peek up her dress. Not that I would ever want to! Especially since I have Kai.

"No, you fling-pooed backyard tottie. Walking with jolts of searing pain coursing up me leg would be better. Do you think before you open your mush, or does it come out on its own?" Scotsman's wife says taking a pause as they finished climbing down the stairs and seeing themselves surrounded by Celtic demons whom may have heard them coming somehow. "Oh, way to go, boys. I suppose walking us right into the whole blethering army was part of the plan? Well, don't just stand there. Defend me!"

You didn't have to tell them twice, as soon as those words were spoken Jack and the Scotsman dropped his wife and ran off to fight the Celtic demons with Kai following close behind them. The three using their weapons were quickly destroying the army quite nicely… well it depends on who you'd asked.

"You call that fighting? I've seen cranky sheep more vicious." Scotsman's wife shouted complaining about their fighting style well Jack and her husband's fighting anyways. "Oh, I'm sure that hurt them. Why not give them all a cup of tea and a biscuit to choke on. You two couldn't fight your way out of a garden party of old ladies. I've baked haggis more lethal than you."

"So many." Scotsman says panting after the three were done fighting and trying to catch their breathes.

"Is that it?" Scotsman wife asked looking around. "Well good job there lassie!" She begins to say complementing only Kai until she sees more Celtic demons showing up. "Some warriors you two are. You make the poor girl have to do all the work and you couldn't even make sure there wasn't any more demons!"

"Have any ideas, laddie?" Scotsman askes Jack.

"Resign ourselves to becoming soup." Jack says still panting.

"It's been a high time fighting side by side with you two." Scotsman says.

"I am honored to die at your sides." Jack states. "Kai I'm really sorry I did not mean to cause you to get upset."

"Ditto, and Jack I'm not mad anymore. I've learned today that we should really just-" Kai begins to say but is interrupted.

"Are you three done being sissies?" Scotsman's wife askes breaking the warrior's moment.

"Silence." A deep voice says out of nowhere, it appeared to be a really tall and even scarier looking Celtic demon that was clearly the leader. "The moon is full. Destroy the warriors and throw the fat female in the pot." The leader orders.

"Fat? Fat? I'm not fat! I'm stout!" Scotsman's wife shouted shaking the room.

"Silence!" The leader yells again only to get punched in the gut by the Scotsman's wife, much to the shock of the three warriors she goes on a rampage and it is not long before she destroys every last remaining Celtic demon on her own.

"Impressive." Jack says in awe.

"She just killed everything in like nothing flat!" Kai says equally in awe.

"Aye, that's me wife." Scotsman says happily.

"That's it then? Now let's go home." Scotsman's wife says after seeing no more demons to fight.

"Oh, angel. Oh, my buttercup, you were grand. My wee life would be darkness without you." Scotsman tells his wife happily running up to her and hugging her.

"You're sweet-talking me?" She asked still with a frown on her face. "Aye." "Don't ever stop, love. Don't ever stop." She says happily smiling and squeezing her husband back in the hug.

"They really are sweet, in a bat shit crazy way." Kai says smiling at them with Jack who nodded in agreement. "You know, you could stand to learn a thing or two from him." Kai says as she elbows Jack playfully in the chest.

"I thought you were not angry anymore?" Jack askes her laughing a bit. "In all seriousness Kai, I am sorry and if you wish I'll go along with any punishment you see fit."

"Are you sure about that Jack?" Kai asked.

"Yes Kai, whatever it takes to make you happy." Jack tells her.

"Okay, put remember you asked for it." Kai says mischievously turning her attention back to the married couple.

"Oh, darling. Oh, you're a sweet man to come rescue me." Scotsman's wife cooed at her husband.

"I couldn't have done it without me friends." Scotsman says not wanting to leave the two out. "Come here, lass and laddie. Meet me wife." Scotsman say beckoning the couple to come over. "Wife, this is me friends."

"I am honored." Jack says bowing his head politely.

"Oh, pleasure's mine, sir." Scotsman's wife says curtsying back at him.

"Really it is great to meet you." Kai says.

"You fight with great strength and passion." Jack states.

"Like none we've ever seen before!" Kai finishes.

"l- Oh, enough of that. Give me a hug, you two!" Scotsman's wife says grabbing the two and squeezing them into a hug. "What a nice couple. A wee bit skinny. I'll fatten you up with a good helping of me famous haggis recipe."

"What is haggis?" Jack asked barely able to breathe in the hug.

"Sheep's stomach stuffed with-" The married couple starts saying at the same time and noticing that started laughing. After that the Scotsman's wife finally let Jack and Kai go.

"How can l repay you two?" Scotsman asked his friends as the four began to head out of the castle.

"Friends carry no debts." Jack tells him.

"Right we were happy to do it!" Kai says nodding in agreement.

"Aye." The Scotsman says in agreement.

"Invite them to supper, dear." Scotsman's wife tells him.

"You two are invited to supper." Scotsman says as they reached the way out.

"Seems we must find an alternate way out." Jack says looking at the doorway that would not be large enough for the Scotsman's wife.

"Why?" Scotsman asked.

"Jack don't!" Kai begins to say but it was too late.

"This doorway is so very small, and your wife is so very-" Jack began to explain not realizing his mistake.

"What?!" Scotsman's wife yells and looks at Jack ready to murder him.

"Run!" Scotsman advised his friend to which Jack decided to follow, Jack took off with the Scotsman's wife tailing behind him and Kai running behind the Scotsman's wife. "Don't squash him, muffin! He's a friend of mine!"

Got to get closer, got to stop that woman from killing Jack! Kai thinks as she runs behind the Scotsman's wife. She needed to come up with a plan soon because the Scotsman's wife in her anger was twice as fast as Jack and it wasn't going to be long until she caught him. To late Kai thinks as she sees the Scotsman's wife grab Jack by the collar.

"Wait, wait!" Kai pleas clearing a little bit of space between Jack and the Scotsman's wife. "Look I understand that you're upset, and you have every right to be but you know Jack has already gotten me mad about something this week and I was going to punish him anyways so you really don't have to do anything. I mean haven't you been through enough already?" Kai tries to reason hoping it would work as Jack hid behind her.

"I suppose if you are gonna take care of it?" The Scotsman's wife says calming down a bit.

"Yes, yes she will!" Jack pleas nodding his head up and down.

"Alright then, let's go have supper then!" Scotsman's wife says happily again. "You two can spend the night in our guest room before you have to go back to your travels."

"Everyone okay here." Scotsman says catching up to the three surprised that his wife hadn't killed Jack yet.

"We're all square away! Now let's go." She states heading towards their home.

Sometime later after being forced to eat more haggis than the couple would ever care for in this lifetime the two were finally alone in the guest room for the night.

"I never want to eat haggis ever again!" Jack says as he lays on the bed.

"Can't disagree with you there, hopefully we can get out of here quick enough in the morning so we don't have to eat it for breakfast either." Kai says lying next to him.

"Yes we should make hast as fast as possible in the morning." Jack says turning to his right and looking at Kai, they share a smile and then start laughing uncontrollable. "At least one good thing came out of this whole ordeal."

"Really what's that?" Kai asked still laughing a bit.

"You are not upset anymore." Jack states still looking at Kai.

"Ah yes, speaking of which you remember how you said that you would gladly take any punishment that I deem fit." Kai says slyly.

"Yes, I recall that." Jack tells her.

"You still sure you want to go through with it." Kai asked inching closer to him.

"Yes Kai like I said whatever it takes." Jack assures her.

"Ok, Jack." Kai says climbing on top of him. "But don't say I didn't warn you!" Kai starts kissing Jack deeply and disrobing him much to his excitement, but when he tried to wrap his arm around Kai to pull her in closer he found that he couldn't move.

"Wait…what?" Jack begins to say and from the sound of his voice he was clearly confused as he tried to move any part of his body but continued to fail.

"I would try not to move so much Jack, the more you move the tighter the binding spell holds you." Kai informs him while she starts taking off her clothes.

"But…why?" He asked still confused Kai just laughed at him.

"Did you already forget Jack that you are being punished?" Kai states as she moves lower until she is eye level with his manhood. "Tonight you don't get to move, touch or anything else until I say so." She explains as she slowly begins to stroke him.

"Hmm," Jack moaned in delight if this was the type of punishment Kai had in store for him tonight then he would gladly take it a thousand times. I think I'm going to like this punishment! Jack thinks as Kai continues to stroke him a bit faster. It wasn't long before Jack's manhood was fully erected from Kai's stroking when she stopped using her hand and wrapped her breasts around his manhood. "Yesss," Jack hissed in pleasure, oh I love it when she does this for me Jack thinks as Kai bounces her breasts up and down his manhood. The couple had learned early on that there was nothing that Jack loved more than to have his yearning erection massaged against Kai's wonderfully soft breasts. Between a week's worth of pint up frustration with no relief and the delicious feeling that came with Kai's breast bouncing up and down his manhood it wasn't long before Jack could sense that his end was cumin soon. Yes! Just a little more. Jack thinks sensing himself at the very edge of cumpletion when Kai suddenly stopped and moved away from him. "What? Kai why did you stop?" Jack askes in frustration.

"Oh, well I'm gonna go take a shower now." Kai simply states getting up to gather the things she would need for her shower.

"But, Kai? You cannot leave me like this now!" Jack insist. Right when I was about to have my release how cruel!

"Oh, yes I can Jack because you are being punished!" Kai says smirking down at him.

"So you are just going to leave me here?" Jack askes, her in shock. "While you take a shower?"

"Yep." Kai says leaving the guest bedroom and walking into the attached bathroom.

"Kai please! You cannot leave me here!" Jack began to complain as he felt his erection starting to become flaccid. "Kai!" Jack yelled already hearing the water running in the bathroom.

"Well I do suppose you should take a shower as well." Kai states from the shower, it's a good thing I did a silencing spell also the way Jack is yelling, the whole clan could end up barging in here! And with that Jack could feel the binding spell releasing him, he quickly jumps out of bed and rushes to the bathroom and hops into the shower.

Jack swiftly encircles his strong arms around Kai's waist pulling her back towards his well-muscled chest and he started laying kisses on her neck. "Are we going to finish what you started now?" He asked between kisses he could never get enough of tasting her.

"No Jack you are here to take a shower and that's just what you are going to do." Kai informs him and before he has time to realize it, Jack is once again unable to move because of the binding spell.

"Come on Kai, not again!" Jack says disappointingly as Kai pushed him closer to the shower head that was spraying water.

"Yes again Jack remember punishment!" Kai states as she grabs a bar of soap and starts rubbing soap all over Jack's chest. This wasn't the first time that the couple showered together in fact it was a very favored activity it always managed to turn them on, but this time was different Jack couldn't move so he wouldn't have the joy of soaping up Kai's body while Kai would enjoy feeling up his chiseled features.

"Kai, this is much too cruel." Jack says with a moan as she begins to wash his hair. "You know how much I enjoy this, how excited it gets me."

"Punishment Jack, how many times am I going to have to say it?" Kai says calmly as she rinses him off.

After the shower the couple found themselves on the bed again, Jack of course still unable to move and forced to lay down while Kai sat on top of him.

"So how long are you going to torture me tonight?" Jack asked.

"It's a full moon Jack, I could do this all night." Kai says smirking down at him grinding their hips together. "You already know I'm not going to sleep too much….energy but what to do with it?" She asked as she connects their intimate areas together and begins slowly bouncing up and down his lap. "I guess this will have to do for now."

Kai was going much to slow for Jack, it was becoming painfully clear that she was willing to drag this out as much as possible. So warm, so tight, so good! Been too long can't take a whole night like this need to go faster, harder, deeper! Jack thinks as he grits his teeth it was one of the few things he could still do besides talking. "Kai, my tsuki please! I-I can't do this any longer either release me or go faster!" Jack stammers as he tries to plea with her.

"Why should I? After all this is not for your pleasure it's your punishment remember?" Kai says as she continues to move painfully slow. "The same punishment you insisted that you could take even though I warned you."

"OK I admit I was wrong!" Jack pleas as she continues to tease him. "I can't take any more of this!"

"Alright, I guess I had my fun for tonight." Kai says releasing Jack of the binding spell, not taking any chances Jack quickly as possible flips them over so that he was on top and Kai was under him.

"Kai, I suggest you hold onto something." Jack says darkly as he renters her, he doesn't really give her a chance to do just that before he begins thrusting in almost violently. "So good! I'm glad I'm finally back." Jack groans as her pounds into her.

"Well I guess this week will teach you not to ever get me upset with you." Kai says between moans, she missed this just as much as he did his manhood always pleasure her like no other.

"Oh, believe me it does!" Jack moans still thrusting into her. "But you will learn tonight to never tease like that again!" Jack states as he begins to pound harder, a week with pint up frustration. Oh I am going to get my vixen back for that especially for leaving me hanging earlier. Before she had him helpless and completely at her mercy but now it was time to turn the tables. He slammed into her again and again not only rocking her body but rocking the bed as well.

"Jack, you might want to calm down before you break something." Kai gasped eyes squeezed shout in pleasure as she tried to withstand his assault.

"Look at me Kai." Jack orders as he looks down at her continuing to thrust into her, finally when she manages to open her eyes again he plainly states. "I've been ignored by you all week, forced to help save a woman who barely even seemed grateful for the help and brought to my peak just to be left alone before I could finish. So after all of that if I break something tonight I DON'T CARE!" They went at this for a while before it became clear that they were both reaching their breaking points.

"Jack! Jack." Kai groans out as her walls starts to tighten their hold on his manhood.

"That's it my vixen tighten your walls, ah squeeze it just right for me!" Jack grunts still slamming in.

"Jack I-I think," Kai tries to speak but is quickly losing her ability to do so.

"I know Kai just a few more, just take it a few more times." Jack groans rapidly pounding a bit longer.

"Jack!" Kai shouted as her release hit her.

"Kai!" Jack shouted following after her between all the teasing from early on and the final clenching of her walls as she came, Jack couldn't help but release his load as well.

"The headboard on the bed is broken." Kai states as Jack moves to lay by her side again.

"We'll fix it in the morning." Jack say cuddling up to her.

"Before or after haggis?" Kai asked and they both breakdown and laugh again.
