Kimiko's POV

Darkness. Darkness surrounds me. How long have I been like this? In complete darkness. The last thing I remember was telling Clay to watch out and then nothing. When will I awake from this god awful nightmare? Or better yet do I want to wake up to what awaits me. My guess is that this has something to do with Spicer. I knew he was planning something. That sly, cocky look. He never has that look unless he, for once, is living up to his title of evil boy genius.

WHIIRRRR… WHIRRRRR….

Sounds like machines in the background. I must be in Spicer's Layer or should I say basement. I guess I should look around to see my situation.

I slowly open my eyes and blink a few times. Once my vision is clear I realize my head is killing me! Oh, yea I got hit in the head. Thanks Spicer.

The room is full of broken robot parts and machines that I bet even Jack doesn't know how to use. I wonder what his evil plan is this time…

" Your awake."

" Yea, well no thanks to you. My head is killing me thank you very much."

"Now, now, now is that anyway to talk to the person who is holding you hostage Kimiko?"

"Well, Jack, if it was any other person no. For you I really don't care." I said smirking.

"You know Kim, your attitude is one of your best qualities."

"You don't know me enough to know about my qualities. What's your dumb plan this time?"

" My plan is quite brilliant actually. See, when I invaded the temple, I didn't get a chance to get all the wu, thanks to your stupid little boyfriend. "

He's not my boyfriend but I wish he was; is what I felt like saying aloud but didn't. Let Spicer think Rai's my boyfriend. Truthfully, I know about Spicer's thing for me and personally, I'm repulsed by the thought of dating him.

"So I'm going to use you as bait for them to bring me the wu. Then when they hand it over I'll trap them and then get rid of them once and for all."

" Ha, by yourself? You don't have the guts or strength to do it. You'll never even be half as good as Wuya or Chase. Evil boy loser."

"Actually, little miss hot pants; I don't plan on destroying them myself. I plan to give them over to Chase and Wuya. Chase still wants Omi to join the heylin side and Wuya; well she's got a bone to pick with Raimundo. "

"What does she want with Rai? What is she going to do to him?"

"You know Wuya. Probably try to convince him to join the heylin side. If he doesn't, then she will get rid of him. Does that bother you? Your little boyfriend will either betray you or be taken care of."

"One, Rai will never betray me and two, what do you mean by taken care of?"

"When Raimundo joined Wuya, she felt like the two of them could take down anything. She said she felt like she was complete. Something she never felt with me," he said jealously, "My guess is that Wuya could never kill Raimundo. She would probably just send him to another dimension."

" Why could she not kill RaI?"

" Did you not just hear what I said? She said she felt complete when she was with him. My guess is that the old hag had some kind of feelings for him. Either as a family member or as something more." Jack said with a knowing smirk. He knew this would upset Kimiko and that's why he said it. Even if it wasn't true.

A look of horror crossed Kimiko's face.

Wuya had feeling for.. for.. RAI?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?! She's like 1,000 years old! EWW that.. that… is disgusting! Rai would never like an old hag like her. He's into better women like say me for example.

"Well Kimiko I would love to stay and chat but I've got things to do."

I didn't respond. I didn't even hear what Jack said before he left. I was still in shock from what Jack said about Wuya and Rai. Rai has told us about what happened but never in great detail. None of us like to recall that memory and only talk about it when necessary.

It's been a day, I think, and still no sign of Raimundo or any other xiaolin warriors. I suppose I shouldn't give up hope. They will come for me eventually. I just really want to get out of here. I need a shower, change of clothes, and I'm starving!

"Kimiko"

I visibly jump like ten feet in the air. It's not every day that you hear a voice call out your name when you think you are alone. I look around, nothings there.

"S-Sp-Spicer? Is that you?" I ask shaking and scared.

"That's the person who you think is recuing you? The person who captured you? WOW Kimi, I never thought you were that dumb." Replied the one voice I had been dying to hear.

"Took you long enough Rai." "Sorry I would have come sooner but Clay was injured and we had to wait for him to heal." " Where are the others? And where are you?" " It's a new technique we learned to help with this mission but I will tell you more about that later. Clay and Omi are also using the technique to keep hidden. Let's get out of here!" " What about Spicer? He won't just let me walk out of here." "Look around. Do you see him?"

I look around. Rai is right. I don't see him anywhere.

"Ok let's get out of here." I say

I realize how Rai is hiding. He is the wind. Hmm interesting. So, somehow Master Fung taught everyone to become there elements. That is so cool! I want to learn how to become fire! That's for later though. First we got to get out of here.

"Kim come on I got the lock open!"

Suddenly Omi, Clay, and Rai all appear out of there hiding places.

" Yes let us get out of this humid situation." "You mean sticky situation partner."

"Whatever guys, let's just get out of here."

"I don't think so! Jackbots attack!"

Oh crap of course Jack shows up.

" Crest of the Condor! Blade of the Nebula!" Raimundo screams. Tons of Jackbots are destroyed but it looks like there are still thousands. Time to kick some Spicer butt.

" Wudai Mars Fire!!!"I spin around and flames form at my will. I haven't bent fire in so long. It feels like a rush. I decide to go with my fire fist attack. I start running, pounding any robot within hitting reach with my fists of fire. Bots fall all around me.

Then a thought occurs to me.

"Guys watch out for Jack and the Chameleon-bot! They're around here somewhere!"

Normal POV

The warriors all hear Kimiko's warning about staying alert. Every guard is up. Omi is fighting a large number of Jackbots with thousands of tiny little icicles. Clay is standing back to back with Omi; also taking on a number of bots with a series of kicks and punches.

"Wudai Star Wind! Ah man this robots are never ending!"

BAM!

Rai gets punched in the face with a very heavy force that could only be made of metal. This could mean only one person. Or in better terms, thing.

"Ahhh. Damn that hurt. Must be the Chameleon- bot."

Rai's assumption was right because at that moment another metal fist was sent flying towards Raimundo's face. Raimundo manages to dodge. But then a barrage of punches comes flying at him.

"Ah man what can I do? The punches are coming to fast and I barely manage to dodge them." Raimundo whispers to himself, thinking.

"I've got it! Focus.. Focus..."

Raimundo was gathering up all of his energy to perform an attack.

"Let's hope I can do this…..

Wudai Invisibility attack Wind!" Rai screamed.

Rai disappeared and was nowhere to be seen. The chameleon-bot was searching for Rai when all of a sudden POW!

The bot get flung across the room with a mighty burst of wind. Raimundo is still nowhere to be seen. The other warriors, who had finished of the jackbots, were now looking for Jack himself and the stolen wu. Except for one concerned fire dragon.

Said dragon was worried for Raimundo's safety. He was nowhere to be found and this troubled her. Of course the chameleon-bot was here so it couldn't have gotten Raimundo. But Jack wasn't here.

There were two scenarios running through Kimiko's mind. 1- Rai was captured by Jack who was holding him hostage like he had her. Or 2- Rai simply found Jack and was beating him up as she ran through these scenarios.

Most likely 2. Raimundo was tough and there was no way a mama's boy like Jack could ever out match him. WOW, if he had heard her think that his ego would have been ten times as large.

But wait, neither of those scenarios made sense anymore. If Rai was captured or fighting Jack- who was taking on the chameleon-bot? It wasn't Omi or Clay; they were looking for the shen gong wu. It wasn't herself. So that only leaves Raimundo.

Suddenly Kim remembered that Raimundo told her about a new technique. Somehow He must be invisible and fighting the chameleon-bot. Thank goodness he was alright.

All of a sudden a loud crash and an explosion was heard. As the thick, gray smoke cleared up Kim saw that the chameleon-bot was in pieces and obviously defeated. Omi and Clay had found the wu and had also found Jack; they must have felt the need to teach him a lesson because he was curled in a ball, crying. She also saw something else- a body lying on the floor, not moving.


OOOOooooOOO Cliff hanger. Sorry!! You'll just have to read the next chapter to find out what happens! :]

Also, this chapter was A LOT shorter than other chapters but I wanted to get it out earlier. Just to let all my readers know.. next chapter will be the last one.

One quick question to! I'm thinking about rewriting the first two chapters. I don't like the style I wrote them in. Do you think it is worth rewriting or should I just let them how they are?

Luv you all as always,
