dl-sPirit: (sniffles) Rai and Omi left yesterday. (sniffles again) They saw Kosmic's review and left. They didn't even say goodbye. (cries) I've been - JACKED!

Jack: I actually feel sorry for her. She had a crush on that Latino.

dl-sPirit: HE'S NOT A LATINO! (continues crying)

Ferret (remember chapter 5?): Maybe we should answer her reviews for her...

Jack: You can talk?

Ferret: (points to active Tongue of Saiping in Jack's hand)

Jack: Oh. Ok. First, disclaimer: see last chapter.

Ferret: Yeah, you morons!

Jack: Shut up. Ok, now for reviews:

To Kaisa/Elemental-Zero: Ferret: Here's that chapter you wanted!

To Satoshi Sliver Syoran: Jack: We just did!

To Priestess kurumi inu's sister: Jack: Hey!

To Rave Slave: Ferret: Thanks!

To Kosmic: Jack: Hey, Kosmic-

Ferret: Oh, I'm gonna bite all of your fingers and destroy your stuff and-

Jack: Enough answering, here's the chapter!

The three warriors were unusually quiet during breakfast. The truth about the were-dragon had astonished them beyond belief. Mentally, each was going over the reasons why Raimundo never told them, or why he went to Jack Spicer (of all people!). Dojo suddenly rushed into the room and yelled, "Shen-gong-wu alert, people! Let's move out!" Dojo went outside to change into his forty-foot form. Kimiko, Omi, and Clay exchanged a glance that said only one thing: 'Jack's gonna be there...and so will Raimundo.' They ran out after Dojo.

(---)

"So now that we know wher Raimundo is, I wish to know why he left and why he never told us," Omi said. It had only been a few minutes after they left. The Dragon of Water could not come up with a plausible explanation for why the Dragon of the Wind never told them his secret.

"Well, remember what that guy said? He lost everything. Maybe he was scared that it'd happen again," Kimiko reasoned. Omi nodded in agreement. That did make sense. His train of thought was interrupted by Clay suddenly exclaiming, "Wait a minute!" The sudden outburst made Dojo stop immediately, temporarily squishing his passengers.

"What?" Omi asked. Clay responded, "Don't you think Wuya and Jack seemed rather eager to get the Lunar Locket and the Flute of Long? I reckon they must've known!"

"Known what?" Dojo asked. The three warriors looked to each other before the Dragon of Earth admitted, "It turns out Raimundo was the intruder. He's a were-dragon." "If he asks, I didn't say anything," Dojo said quickly.

"Ok...wait, you knew?" Kimiko asked. Dojo groaned before he continued flying. He began: "Ok, when I first met the kid, he was in his dragon form. I was looking for the other Chosen Ones at the time. We talked, I asked him where I could find Raimundo - him. When I met him - as a human - he seemed familiar, but I decided to ignore it. Then, a few nights after you all joined, I just happened to be outside. I saw him - as a dragon - and was about to say hi when the sun rose and I saw him transform. Well, he saw me and made me swear on Dragon's Honor not to tell anyone unless they knew. It's actually part of the reason he left." Noting the warrior's confusion, he added, "Wuya promised that she knew a way to, well, make him normal, per se. But, unlike werewolves, were-dragon don't need moonlight to change. If the moon's full, even if you can't see it, he'll still change. So, even though Wuya helped him for about a few days, it didn't help in the end. That witch knows just as much as you do when it comes to were-dragons."

"That explains a lot," Omi said. Kimiko, who was curious about what Dojo had mentioned, asked, "Dojo, what's Dragon's Honor?"

"It's the most binding promise in the world," Dojo explained casually, "In short, if I told you guys, and you didn't know beforehand, Raimundo would be able to sense it and, well, he'd have it in for me." Clay cringed slightly, thinking of what that would mean.

"We're here!" Dojo announced. The first thing everyone noticed was Wuya, Jack, and (reluctantly) Raimundo flying over to the new shen-gong-wu. Wuya saw them too and ordered, "Vento, get that shen-gong-wu!" Raimundo shot her a glare before picking up speed and grabbing the shen-gong-wu. Kimiko, simutaneously, jumped off of Dojo's back right next to the shen-gong-wu and grabbed it. It glowed golden.

"Vento, I challenge you to a Xiaolin Showdown," Kimiko shouted, putting emphasis on his (nick)name. Raimundo winced visibly before replying, "Your Eye of Dashi against -"

"Your Lunar Locket," Kimiko finished. Her friend raised an eye. "Challenge is a race up the mountain, without any wu - or wings. If you fall, you automactically lose," she added. Jack groaned, but Raimundo looked slightly happier before saying, "I accept."

Together, they both yelled, "Xiaolin Showdown!" The scenery shifted again and Kimiko registered that she was, in fact, fighting Raimundo. She knew that if she insulted him, he might retaliate - and that'd be dangerous. They were both at the base of a large mountain. Kimiko's outfit changed into her armor. Raimundo' scales and feathers enlarged and hardened. Their shen-gong-wu vanished. They both yelled, "GONG YI TEMPAI!" and the Showdown started.

Kimiko leaped into action - literally, scaling the mountain face. Raimundo followed closely. Clay and Omi cheered for Kimiko, while Jack seemed to keep making a threat about something, making him speed up. When Raimundo shot her a worried look, Kimiko knew it was time to act.

"You don't have to do this, Vento!" she hollered. Raimundo paused momentarily before continuing more slowly. "Ok, let's try this again: you don't have to do this, Raimundo," she yelled up. Raimundo stopped suddenly and gave a tiny wince. Kimiko wondered if he had bitten his tongue, out of habit. Her suspicions were confirmed when she saw a thin stream of blood trickle out of his mouth and down his neck. He looked to the ground, shame covering his face. Kimiko leaped up to where he was and stopped.

"She told me that she told you guys and-and you rejected me," the brazlian said in a whisper. Kimiko rolled her eyes before replying, "Rai, it's Wuya. She just wanted you to stay. We would never reject you. We miss you." Raimundo looked up, as if to see if she was lying. When he saw she was being sincere, Raimundo nodded.

"Then you'll have to win." His grip suddenly loosened. Kimiko tensed up. Raimundo, sensing this, explained, "If I fall, you win. We all win. I'll be ok." He smiled at her before he let go and fell.

Ferret: She makes no sense whatsoever. The story could've ended, right?

Jack: She's got one more chapter. It's quite unexpected.

Ferret: (reads Chapter 6) Wait...was that a-

Jack: Yes.

Ferret: And you-

Jack: Yes.

Ferret:oo Review! Cause I'm leaving!
