A.N: posting know before heading to school since I forget to post last night with my other story :P. I laughed a little yesterday that ROTG on Fanfiction is like on the top ten movies with over like a 5,000 stories. But now it's slow all of a sudden, not a lot of new recent stories.

Thank you Anony mouse101 for reviewing. This shot takes place by the lake and Jack is like sixteen. I was watching Xiaolin Showdown the other day and had to put a conversation between Clay and Raimundo in this because it was just too hilarious to pass up. I don't own ROTG.

Summer was oddly hot this time of year, in fact it had only been a few days since spring had ended and the sun was already baking the skins it touched and the water left outside turned too warm to drink. Speaking of warm water, sun had become so hot, the top of the small lake had become warm enough to swim in. All the kids were outside by the shore of the lake. The boys had worn only a pair of old pants that were too worn out to be worn in everyday use. The girls had on a long strap of cloth tied around their breast and old pants (A gift from the boys, only to wear to swim).

No one had gone in yet, some because of fear, or just not wanting to see how cold it is. Jack, Eddy, Elizabeth, and Jefferson stood not on the shore, but on the other side where there was a pile of huge boulders, a place to jump off into the water. Jack looked down from his boulder to see that this was the deep end of the big pond, something he reminded himself to never go near in the winter. He took a step back and turned his head to face the others on his right. "Ok, who wants to go first?" Everyone looked at Jefferson.

"Why does everyone look at me?"

"Because you're the oldest." Jack answered.

"Well that doesn't mean I want to go in first."

"What's the matter?" Elizabeth asked. "Too scared?"

"No! I'm just saying a person as important as me shouldn't jump in first."

"Important as…." Jack started to say.

"Um, remember, I'm a Burgess." Everyone moaned and whined at his dumb reason. "Actually, since I'm a Burgess, I should be the one to say who goes in or not."

Jack, Eddy, and Elizabeth started to yell, saying no and sometimes say it was a dumb idea. Then Elizabeth said, "You have no right."

"What did you say?" Jeff said angrily marching up to her. Elizabeth stepped back a little in fear, a little too close to the edge. Jack stepped in between her and Jeff and said, "Hey, shouldn't we get back to the whole water thing?"

"How about I just hear what you want to say and then I can get on with dumping your sister in the lake. She can be our test person. Or maybe Eddy here can get in since here since he has a lot of body fat."

Jack got mad, planted one foot forward and stated, "Why don't you jump in since your head has no brain and weighs light enough to be a floatation device!"

"Why you little-" Jeff was going to finish his sentence and then go over and try to strangle Jack, but the protective brother sidestepped and pulled Elizabeth away from the edge. Jeff kept on charging forward but realized at the last minute that he was heading straight over the edge. He tried to stop himself by flailing his arms around, but it was no use and gravity pulled him off and into the water. Everyone gasped as they saw him go under with a splash. Everyone waited as a few seconds had passed and Jeff hadn't popped up.

Jack was thinking of jumping to get him but stopped when he saw bubbles and then a head pop out of the water gasping for air. Jeff pushed the hair on his face back and looked at the shore full of waiting children with shocked and some relieved faces. He then looked up the otter way where Jack, Elizabeth, and Eddy stood leaned over. Jack said "Well?"

"Um…well about ten feet down in starts to get cold."

"But?"

"But the water is just fine from up here so-"

Jack yelled "So let's go everybody!" and he jumped of the edge, canon ball style, and made a huge splash when he went in the water. The kids on the shore cheered and ran into the water. Jack rose to the surface and saw Eddison and Elizabeth jump in next. Everyone was in there for like an hour or so. Jeff had disappeared sometime towards the end. As Jack and Elizabeth were having a splash fight, he felt a round shadow loom over him. He stopped and looked up to where the boulders were. Kid's were jumping from it earlier, no he just saw a huge rock as big as the boulders being rolled to the edge by who looked to be Jeff and his friends.

"Everyone as far away from the deep end as possible!" Jeff warned. Everyone did as they were told and swam a little closer to the shallow end but not on to the shore.

Jack moved away until he was standing on the shallow end shoulder high. He stopped to look back to see what Jeff was doing and then felt someone tap his shoulder. Jack turned his head and face Katherine who came floating by holding on to a large piece of flat wood. It was an inch thick but 2 feet wide, wide enough to float on the water. Katherine held on to one side and nudged the other side to Jack. "Hang on." She said. Jack did so but asked, "Why?" and she simply answered, "You will see."

Jeff made sure everyone was out of the deep part and he turned to his friends who were still holding the boulder size rock from tipping over. "Ready, now roll it off!" They nodded and rolled the huge thing to the edge and let it fall off and into the water it went. The impact made a huge splash and a made a three foot wave. All the children were hit and tumbled in the wave. Jack and Katherine, who were still holding on to the wood plank, braced themselves as the wave lifted them and then when the small wave crashed, the force made Katherine and Jack slide across the water . It only lasted a few seconds, and then they were swept up on to the shore. All the other kids were swept to shore, their face on the ground belly up. Some of the younger children who were lighter, in this case Elizabeth, were swept far away or just tumbled into some bushes that grew close to the edge of the small lake. Jack helped Katherine onto her feet and cleaned themselves of the mud that had gotten on them when they were swept on shore. Jack looked the other side of the lake and saw Jeff and his friends on the boulders having watched the whole scene from there. Jeff yelled, "Woo-hoo!"

The kids looked at each other and then suddenly burst into laughter. Everyone was giggling or saying something like, "Did you see me fly?" "I got hit and-and-and I tumbled!" "I was like five feet in the air!" "It was like SPLASH!" "That was so much fun."

Jack told Katherine, "So that's what you meant."

"He's been planning it for a while, he told me to use the board so that I can get the best out of it." Jack considered what she said. So Jeff can sometimes be a pain, but maybe there was just some small amount of love for his sister and just joy of bringing happiness to the kids.

A.N: I couldn't make Jeff that evil, I just had to make him look like the guy that actually wants to have fun. The ending was hard to write and I know it looks crappy because it's quick. I'm planning better for the next one.
