Lobo: (hold a sash from luveroffanfic) Of course! I will give it to Lady Lizgon when she gets back. (hides sash) I won't let a gecko know about that! (winks)
Kobo: (sigh) Khu is still not back now. Wonder where he is now? (looks at his older brother)
Lobo: (shrugs) Do not ask me. He probably wandering off and flirting some chicks.
Ciara: (rolls eyes) Khu never do such something like that, Lobo. We should wait until he gets back.
Yamato: (scowls) Hn.
Kobo: (looks at the scowling boy) Would you go get Khu, wouldn't you? (puppy eyes)
Yamato: (groans) Fine. (disappeared)
Ciara: (turns to Lobo) YOU SHOULD do disclaimer for Lady Lizgon!
Lobo: (cringed) Oh yea! (Mumbled something like "why me?") Lady Lizgon does not own Xiaolin Showdown, sheng-gong-wus and any characters in it.
Ciara: (added) Only she owns us and our sheng-gong-wus. Fan of Gust and Lightning Rod will be explained and some action in this chapter. (Waves) Enjoy!
Chapter Eight - The Symbol
In the Xiaolin Temple
Kimiko, Clay, and Dojo sit on the floor, watching at their master and hoping he would wake up after Kimiko gave the good chi back to where it belong to him.
Jack Spicer left them few hours ago, returning to his mansion again. He told them he will brought his robot-like plane for them soon.
And Raimundo was nowhere to be seen in this room. Kimiko knew he was heartbroken after they had lost their friend to Chase Young again twice.
Clay sighed, running his hand into his blonde hair he had lost cowboy hat during the last battle with their friend before they lost him again.
He looked at Dojo crawled to his shoulder and asked, "Dojo, why don't Master Fung wake up when he got his good chi back?"
(A/n: I have no idea about Clay's Texas accents and his strange languages, sorry!)
Dojo shook his head shrugging his tiny shoulders. "I do not know. I bet he will wakes up good few hours soon or later." He said, looking at the sleeping master on the mat.
Kimiko sighed pulling her legs to her chest and wrapped her arms around her legs, hugging herself. She glances over to the window, looking at the pale full moon and the few demon birds screeching in the sky.
I hope he better wakes up soon... She thought sadly.

In the young Dragon of Wind's room
The sound of the glass cracks and shattered echoed in the room as the brazilian boy had punched his mirror in the bathroom.
Some of the tiny glass stuck in his bleeding fist that might be very painful for him but he ignored it, looking up at the shattered mirror. His crying was now dried making him looks more tiredly and irritating on his face.
"It's my fault..." He whispered to himself, walking backward until his back was on the wall and slid down to the floor slowly. "It's all my fault... It should have been me, not him!"
His unharmed hand hid his eyes and starts to wept quietly. Until he ran out of his tears and sniffles, pulling his medallion out of his shirt and staring at the coin with the swirl on it.
He traced his thumb on the craving of swirl on the golden coin and closed his eyes, sighing sadly. He stood up and went to get the medicine aid to fix his bleeding hand.
Once he was done with his hand, walking to his mat and fell his face on the puffy pillow with a oof.
He looked at the picture of him and his friends hang on the wall next to him, Clay and Kimiko laughing at him while Omi teasing him and sort of in successful to get him ticked off.
He smiled sadly, turned his back on the floor and staring up at the ceiling. He remembered he was ticked off at Chase Young and attacked him but only get caught and nearly being eaten, thanks to Clay saved his life.
He paused, absent-mindedly tracing his thumb on his medallion as the image of the boy's face appeared in his mind.
Before he was leaving on Dojo's back with his two friends and Jack, he saw him and he noticed a soft look on his face but also he noticed a cold amethyst eyes as well.
He muttered a curse under his breath when he realized that Khu had seen him crying while he was on the dragon's back.
He glanced down at his medallion, eyeing at the strange yet familiar swirling on the golden coin. He had it since the day of his parents died and he was taken away to the foster family who are working for the circus.
He let it fall on his chest, sighing and cuddles into a small ball like a cat and fall asleep dreaming of playing his favorite soccer ball with his cousins, Marcos and Aseso.
He did not know that one of his cousins was looks alike the boy he was fighting who was working for Chase Young.

In the living room
Lobo pokes with interests at the items, Fan of Gust and Lightning Rod. "Hn. I can't see why Chase wants those sheng-gong-wu! They're completed useless because they won't allow anyone to activate it!" He growled, poking at the golden rod.
Yamato rolled his red eyes and glared at Lobo. "Be careful or else you will–"
Suddenly, Lobo yelped and yanked his hand away from the golden rod, rubbing the burned mark on his hand.
"–be shocked by it." Yamato finished, smirking happily at him as Lobo glowered at him silently.
Ciara shook her head, looking at Lobo with bored look on her face. "Your so hopeless, Lobo." She muttered, looking back to her book.
Kobo looked up from playing his game boy to his older brother. "Why don't he came back?" He asked looking worriedly.
Ciara glanced up at Lobo again, closing her book. "Yeah, why don't you go back and tell him to get his butt back here or I will sic tigers on you and him!" She threatened, glaring at the gray haired boy.
"I'm going! I'm going!" Lobo muttered, walking out of the room with annoyed look on his face.

On the outside where Khu was siting on the same spot again, watching at the full moon. A black swirling on the full moon looks bit familiar to him, Khu frowned at it and knew it was just a symbol of the Heylins.
Then again, the young Heylin Tiger of Darkness thought dryly, the same symbol on Dragon of Wind's medallion too. Did he knows what it meant?
"Yo man! What are you doing outside?"
Khu looked up with startle look and relaxed when he saw Lobo approached him and sit next to him.
"Nothing, Lobo." He said, looking back to the moon again.
Lobo rolled his eyes and sighed, looking up at the moon. He was glad he could control his other self and so are his young brother before both of them were banished from his own tribe.
"Nothing my butt." The were-wolf teenager muttered to himself and looked back at his best friend.
"I know you since I met you seven years ago. You are thinking about him again. Funny thing what I noticed about him. He looks just like you, only different thing is your eyes." He said, shaking his head.
Sighing, the young heylin of darkness buried his head into his arms and muttered quietly, "I don't remember everything before I was turned ten and moved to Ohio and only met you."
Lobo nodded, encouraging his best friend to say something. "Yea, and?" He asked.
Khu paused for moment and looked up at the full moon.
"All I remember was the little boy and his teddy with him, standing on hill. Probably it was just a dream, Lobo." He said shrugged his shoulders and give a weak smile at him.
Lobo sighed, pats on Khu's back. "Maybe... everything will came back to your sense again." He stood up and walked away before he paused for a second.
"Oh yeah, your girl asked me to tell you to get your butt off and came back or else she will sic tigers on us." The were-wolf laughed, ran down the hidden stairs before Khu can absorbed his words in to his mind.
"SHE IS NOT MY GIRL!"
The black swirling still on the pale full moon in the darkness and creepy blue swirling in the night sky. It is only a dark symbol of the Heylin that every warriors knew and never forget that forever.
