I don't own Xiaolin Showdown
Clay stared at his poor cousin. Had she just challanged him to a Xiaolin Showdown? Did she even know what it was and how it was supposed to be played? Then again, he had a showdown with her and Jack when they were retrieving the Web Spitter shen gong wu. She had won. Clay hoped to win this one, so he could bring his cousiin back to her regular self and also Raimundo. "I accept," Clay said as he tighted his grip on the shen gong wu, "what's the challenge Black Widow?"
"Hmm," the spider lady said as her eyes rolled around the room, "how about an obstacle race?"
"Fine," Clay nodded, "I wager my Mantis Flip Coin against your Web Spitter."
"Okay," she simply said as she held up her shen gong wu, "and if I win, I get to rule the world with my spiders by my side. Even your pathetic little dragon of the wind friends will serve by my side forever."
Clay looked over at the possessed Raimundo who was staring at his mistress like a zombie. That was not going to happen. "And if I win. You will set free my friends and no rule the world."
"Okay I accept that," Black Widow said as she twirled a strand of red hair around her finger, "even though I am going to win."
"We'll see about that," Clay muttered under his breath. "Let's go Xiaolin Showdown!"
The surroundings around them changed. Instead of the underground tunnel they were in, there were two seperate paths. One for the Xiaolin and one for the Heylin. Kimiko and Omi were standing over to the Xiaolin side as Black Widow's spiders and Raimundo were standing on the Heylin side. A flag was magically floating at the wall, waiting for Black Widow and Clay to get into position.
Black Widow and Clay got into position. The two of them knelt down at the ground and waited for the flag to swish. "You can do it Clay," he heard Kimiko whipser to him. Suddenly, the flag swished down and the two competitros took off.
Clay tried to pass the obsatcles that were being thrown at him. Fireballs, spears, rocks, wild animals. He used the Mantis Flip Coin to escape the dangerous objects. He merely escaped the claws of a wild tiger as he flew up in the air. He was thankful that the tiger hadn't jumped along with him. Otherwise, he would have been dinner.
Black Widow on the other hand, quickly crawled out of the way as rocks were being thrown around her. She crawled to the other side of her path and using it as a shiled against the rocks, she began to safely crawl upside down. She kept looking at Clay and how far he was. She speeded up and tried to keep up with him. A human could outrun a spider. She crawled back on top of the pathway and held up the Web Spitter shen gong wu. "Web Spitter!" she yelled as he web was flown straight at Clay.
"Mantis Flip Coin!" Clay yelled as he flipped in the air, avoiding the web. He landed on the rocky path and began to run as quickly as possible. He could see that his path was beginning to crumble from the rocks that were falling. As he was running, a piece of concrete chipped off of the path. Clay stopped and looked at the falling debris. He looked back as the path began to fall. "Mantis Flip Coin!" he yelled once more as he merely escaped from falling down. He safley landed on the other half of the path and began to run. He could see the Black Widow was far from him.
Black Widow arrived to the end of her path. She saw the shen gong wu hanging by the rocky wall. She reached out to grab it. As her hand almost touched the glittering shen gong wu, it was switfly taken away from her. She gasped when a blue motion swept through her. She glared as Clay had triumphantly retrieved the shen gong wu, ending the showdown.
Kimiko and Omi cheered as Clay landed right beside them. He turned around and looked at Black Widow. "Well miss," he said, "we had our deal."
"That we did," Black Widow said, "but I didn't say that I would agree to it."
"Yes you did," Kimiko reminded her.
"I don't play by the rules. Get them!" she yelled to her spiders as she pointed to the three Xiaolin warriors.
On instinct, Clay help up the new shen gong wu at Black Widow. "Spirit Crusher!" Black Widow stared at the blinding light.
