Laura: Hi. Thanks for the reviews, I would find a reasonable excuse for not updating like loads of coursework and all but I'm a pretty crap liar and I truly cannot be bothered sometimes. Anyway I don't have Toonami therefore I found out what happens in second season and now I want to see it more than I ever did. The desire to watch it is growing more and more. Yvonne I do NOT cry in my sleep over it!!!

Anyway next chap is up. It's not all entirely all that and a bag of chips but the plot will thicken.

Chapter 7

He was here. In Tokyo. Free.

'I've got to go.'

And with that Kimberly left the building. Not a word. Unusual behaviour for the girl, being so secretive.

'Argh! I can't take it anymore!' yelled Ross after a moments silence, 'She's up to something out there which I don't trust!'

Glances from one to the other repeated numerously across the room until Gem finally spoke up.

'Look Ross, she's a grown woman. I'm pretty sure she can take care of herself.'

' I don't care! It's pitch black – anyone in their right mind would know it's dangerous out there.'

Ross stood up and soon everyone else got the signal that they were going to have to find her. Ross often showed annoyance to her but everyone knew he secretly cared for his cousin, which showed clearly now.

Some dark street

The dimmed street lamps shone down on the grey pavements where she was standing. Why was everything so confusing? Why did trouble always seem to find a way for her?

She lit what was one of the last cigarettes in the box and nearly burnt her delicate lips.

'Shit!'

'Kimberly?'

Her face immediately lit up when she heard that voice and wrapped her arms tightly around the guy.

'Oh my gosh! You came!'

'Of course I came for you. Why else?'

Her smile came to a halt. Hurtful tears glazed her beautiful eyes and moved her head so she wouldn't face him.

'You came here for your work, didn't you? That's all it is, work. It consumes you – you never have time for me.'

His hand cupped her chin and brought her face closer to his.

'Don't say that. True I do have work here but my job is to protect you. You're in grave danger and you too can't deny it. I love you Kimberly, don't forget it.'

Their lips connected, the feeling exciting and new like a sparks of electricity flowing between the two.

' Hey!' A yell from the distance raced nearer fiercely and powerfully pulled the duo apart, literally pummelling the guy.

'Ross, leave him alone!!' screamed Kimberly as tears streamed down her face.

This however caused Ross to hit him harder as he moaned in agony. Fury ran through her cousin's head as she tried to pull him away. She was struggling badly until she saw another two pair of hands help pull him away with ease.

It took a while but it soon clicked to her that they were, of course, Raimundo and Gem. Raimundo, with his strength of a Xiaolin apprentice and Gem's freaky ability of strength.

Ross was still furious and was struggling to get back into fighting for his cousin's safety. But confusion soon took over as the face of this man rolled into the light making him clearer to see.

Josh??
