dl-sPirit: (returns with Raimundo to Jack and Omi eating vanilla ice cream and fudgesicles) Where's Chase?
Jack: Chase left early. He didn't even do the disclaimer!
dl-sPirit: WHAT!
Omi: FUDGESICLES!
Raimundo: Wind! (summons a tornado to send box of Fudgesicles to him; he looks in and only sees three left) Uh, Omi? How many did you have?
Omi: (is too hyper to answer)
dl-sPirit: Welll, first order of business: disclaimer that CHASE forgot to do! Ok, don't own Xiaolin Showdown - but I can dream that I do! Ok, now for the reviews.
To Kosmic: Thanks for returning Rai! But I do believe that the cage was quite unnecessary...
To A.M.M: I am!
To Gigawolf1: Yeah, who doesn't love dragons:)
To Kaisa: Kaisa? As in the Kaisa who is writing Gusts of Wind, one of my favorite fanfics? (gets starry-eyed)
Raimundo: Ok, that's enough! (shoves away dl-sPirit) Sorry. She just loves that story a bit too much. Well, here's the chapter. Now excuse me and Jack while we put Omi in Detox (Jack and Rai take Omi to a large padded room)
Jack: Enjoy! Ow, Omi! No biting!
Jack turned to Wuya, putting down the Lunar Locket. "Ok, that's done. Now what?"
"Well done, Jack. You haven't messed up yet. Now, did you build that device?" Wuya inquired.
"Of course!"
"Good. Now, activate the Flute of Long."
Jack grinned before pulling out the shen-gong-wu. "Flute of Long!" he hollered, activating it, before blowing into it. He didn't hear a thing. He blew again. Still nothing. "Uh, is this thing busted?"
"Idiot. The Flute creates a pitch too low for humans to hear. Only dragons can hear it. Otherwise, it'd affect humans too." Wuya spoke slowly, like how one might speak to a pre-schooler.
"Oh..."

The blue dragon was circling aimlessly over the Xiaolin Temple. How had the moon gone from waning to, well, this? What could he do? He had half a mind to fly back home. But his rational half told him that it wouldn't work. They kicked him out. They wouldn't take him back. It'd be better to stay. But...how could he explain this?
A low humming sound reached his ears. It was annoying...where did it come from? A feeling of sleep washed over him, and he knew no more.
(---)
Wuya was looking through the skies, waiting for the dragon. It was dawn. Though the sun was rising, the moon, as she planned, wasn't setting. Where is he? He should be here by now! Wuya knew more about the dragon than almost anyone. She had spied it flying about one night and watched it transform. That was when she began to create her plan.
Her vigilance was rewarded shen she spied the dragon, still under the spell of the Flute of Long. The ghostly witch flew in front of Jack's face and began yelling: "Jack! Jack! Wake up!" The gothic child's eyes slowly opened - and he jumped up and screamed. "Wuya! With you, I don't know if I'm coming out of a nightmare or going into one!' he shouted. "He's here," was her reply.
"Really? Cool!" Jack got onto his feet and watched excitedly as the dragon circled overhead before landing on his roof lightly. Jack, upon noticng its teeth, backed away somewhat. The dragon looked expectantly at Jack. "Ok, now what?" Jack asked.
"Are you an idiot!" Wuya yelled, "Wait, scratch that. Now, get that device and put it on him before the Flute wears off!" Jack nodded and and ran inside. Wuya chuckled. Everything was going according to plan. She knew that, even when the Flute wore off, the dragon wouldn't leave. She'd make sure of it.

"Has anyone seen Raimundo? He is not in his room?" Omi asked. It was late morning and, oddly enough, the moon was still in the sky. Though it was worrisome, it wasn't as important as a missing friend.
Clay shook his head. "I saw him last night, but that was it. I haven't seen him today," Kimiko replied.
"Do ya suppose the dragon got him?" Clay wondered aloud. Kimko quickly saw the fear on Omi's face and answered, "Rai seemed pretty confident that it wouldn't be here.
Dojo, who had been rather quiet, suddenly started shaking and he yelled, "Shen-gong-wu alert! C'mon! We gotta go get it!" He grew to his fourty-foot length. The warriors got on, and he took off. As they flew in the skies...they had no idea what they were in for.
Omi: (out of Detox) Ooh, I have a most annoying headache.
Jack: That's what you get for biting me! Hey, dl-sPirit, how'd your lawsuit go?
dl-sPirit: They dropped it when they found out my only possession was this! (holds up a brown ferret with big black eyes)
Raimundo: So?
Omi: It's only a ferret!
dl-sPirit: Oh yeah, try and pet her!
Omi: I will be victorious! (puts hand close to ferret)
Ferret: (bites Omi's hand and doesn't let go)
Omi: AAAAHHHHH! MY FIGHTING HAND! (runs around screaming while the ferret holds on)
Raimundo: (laughs) Don't forget to review!
