After a few quick explinations on Drago's part, Jamie nodded. She was excited to

finaly meet the Ice Gang, she was not so excited about meeting them naked. All

she was wearing was a bathrobe.

"Um...excuse me for a minute...I'm not dressed for Guests...." She hurried off to

her bedroom.

Ice looked over at Drago, "Yo, D, nice girlfreind." Drago growled aggrivatedly,

"She's NOT my girlfriend!"

Hsi Wu chuckled, "That's what you keep saying... But I still don't believe you."

Drago growled again, "Keep pushing it, Bat-man. I'm this close to turning you

into fried chicken!"

Hsi Wu glared at him, "I dare you to do it, Half-blood, you don't have the nerve!"

Ice, Cobra and DJ Fists eye narrowed simutaneously, "Yo, no one talks to our

boy Drago like that, you best hope we don't put you in a world of hurt."

Hsi Wu laughed, "Oh! I'm sooo scared! What are you gonna do? pop a zit on

me?"

Ice smirked, "You got the crust...but have you got the sauce?"They took a

defensive stance. Jamie came out of her room just as They were about to

attack, " No! not in the living room" she shrieked hurrying in between them,

"I work hard enough to keep this house cleanas it is, without you guys fighting

in here."

Ice flashed her a grin, "Just playin' girlfreind, wouldn't dream of crashin' this

crib. Don't sweat it." He slapped her shoulder in a freindly manner. Jamie

sighed with relief. For now. She turned to Drago, "Please keep them from

doing anything to the apartment. I'm going out."

"Where to?"

"Just out."

Jamie headed for the door, Tchang Zu stopped her, "Tell us where first," he said

in his commanding voice. "I just wanna go for a walk by myself for a while, ok?"

Jamie said, careful to keep her tone respectful. Of all the demons, Tchang Zu

still frightened her a little. She felt sorry for Shendu. Being his younger brother,

he must have got bullied a lot...

Harsh.

Tchang Zu steped aside slightly. Jamie had to edge past him, staring at her feet

so she wouldn't have to look him in the eye. She shut the door with a soft click.

000000ooooo000000

Bai Tsa crossed her arms, "I do not think you should have let her go, brother."

Tchang Zu glanced over at her, " I do not care. She cannot go far, she is still

partially ill."

"Be that as it may, my potion will significantly improve her condition. She will

be completely healed by Tomarrow morning," Tso Lan said. Ice looked at

Drago with a rased eyebrow, "What's the dilly-o with her going out? She under

house arrest or somethin?"

"She has the flu," Drago said casually, "And she's also the only one who knows

of our return to this realm," Shendu hissed. "Should she reveal who or where

we are to anyone, our...situation would be comprimised. the full moon is in

three days, we cannot afford to slip up NOW."

Po Kong smirked, "And you would know about slipping up, Brother. You certainly

did often enough. Do you recall when you opened my portal and Chan was

banging on the drum to re-banish me?"

Shendu's shoulders drooped slightly, "Yes, and I attempted to stop him."

"Attempted being the Key word. As well as the fact that YOU were the one

who banged the third time," Po Kong said looking up at him in dark Smugness.

"That's not my fault, Chan knocked me backwards and my head hit the drum

on accident!" Shendu said defensivly. Po Kong scoffed.

"Excuses, excuses..."

000000ooooo000000

Cobra exchanged looks with DJ Fist. "You get the feeling they don't like him

very much, DJ?"

DJ Fist nodded.

"Yeah, me too,' Ice said "Let's ditch this Joint and grab some pavement. You

commin' D-dude?" he asked, turning to Drago. Drago shrugged, better than

hanging out with these losers..."

Shendu grasped Drago's shoulder as they walked past, "Wait."

"What?" Drago asked irritably

"If you're leaving, then you can play fly-on-the-wall and watch Jamie."

Drago jerked away, "As if, I've got better things to do than be her babysitter."

Shendu narrowed his eyes, "Then I suggest you do them while keeping Jamie

in your sights, boy."

"Fine!" Drago growled, slamming the door behind him as they left.

"That dude needs to Chill..." Strikemaster Ice said as they rode the elevator

down. Drago cracked his knuckles, "Tell me about it..."
