Me: (lend back against chair, relaxing from computer) Ah, finally Chapter Ten done! Thanks for reviews! I'm half way through Half-Blood Prince and I still can't found out who he is! T-T

Draio: AAACK! (still flying away from Ferret with Longi Kite) Get away! HELP ME!

Me: (Looks at them, shrugs) Sorry, if only you can tell her you're apologize that you're a jerk and insulted her.

Draio: NEVER! (Looks back at Ferret catching up on him) AAAAAHHH! (flew away faster)

Me: (shakes head) He never learns. He reminds me of Inuyasha from the InuYasha.

Ciara: (taps my shoulders) Err... don't you forgot tomorrow is math test?

Me: Ack! I forget to study! Only one time I feel likes time is like flowing faster than sands. (getting strange looks from my characters) Never mind. Khu, can you disclaimer?

Khu: (looks at me, then nods) Lady Lizgon does not own Xiaolin Showdown, Sheng-Gong-Wu, and any characters in it. Only she owns us and our sheng-gong-wus.

Me: T-T If only I do own Xiaolin Showdown, there will be more of several showdown between Rai and Chase rather than Omi.

Ciara: (sigh) Now on the story! Enjoy!


Chapter Ten - The Second Power

In the Xiaolin Temple

"Master Fung! You're okay!" Kimiko exclaimed, running toward the old monk on the mat and being followed by Raimundo and Dojo too.

Clay looked up at them from cutting off his wood stick that is shape of the same cowboy figure from the "In the flesh'.

"G'mornin'" He greeted his friends and then he went back to his wood stick with his mini-knife again. (A/N: Gah! I still have no idea of his strange languages and I do hope you'll fine with it.)

Master Fung opened his pale blue eyes tiredly and then he looked at the young dragons of fire and wind. He noticed that one of the dragons were absent in this room and he had to ask his young dragons.

"Young dragons, please tell me where is Omi?" He asked tiredly, waiting for their reactions on each of their faces.

But he did not expecting their reactions was very different what he had expected from his students, including the dragon Dojo.

The young dragon of fire quickly looked down at the floor, her eyes turns into dull and clouded with tears as the strange combine of sad, weak whimper and heavy choking-like sobs quietly escaped her.

Then the young dragon of wind had angry, regret and somehow depressing look on his face and closed his eyes tightly, gritting his teeth in angry and clenching his hands into fists.

And the young dragon of earth was still cutting off his wood cowboy figure but by in this time he was on purposely chopped his figure's head off and stared blankly at the headless figure, imaging it's his worst enemy.

The small snake-like dragon looked away, looking more weak than just any ordinary happy-go-luck dragon and his furry ears looks bit down like a sad puppy.

Avoiding his sad dragon eyes from Master Fung's eyes but he knew he wasn't fooled by this, his eyes betrayed his emotions that his heart was breaking slowly by losing his only friend.

"He's not here. He was captured by that...that..." Rai answered, gritting his teeth angrily as he was holding back his temper in check but he was losing it slowly. "That... that bastard Chase Young! That friggin' snake turned Omi into one of his damn pet cats!"

Dojo and Clay cringed at his sudden swearing but none of them bothered to reminds him that he had no rights to swearing in front of the elder old monk.

Kimiko looked surprised and looked at the brazilian, being startled by his swearing. He had never swearing in front of Master Fung before.

She looked back at Master Fung to see if he's reacted to his swearing words but to her surprise, that he wasn't flinch at the young dragon's swearing words, only looked bit old and tiredly with a sad look on his face.

Master Fung sighed sadly, tucking his hands in his monk style sleeve and looked at each of them.

"Raimundo, I want to talk to you about that you need to know. Kimiko... Clay...please leaves us while you two gathered your own sheng-gong-wus for next battle." He replied as Kimiko and Clay obeyed without question, leaving him alone with the young dragon of wind and Dojo.

"What is it." Raimundo muttered, still angry at himself for losing his temper and crossed his arms on his chest.

Master Fung sighed closing his eyes and then reopened his eyes again. "I've fear that ominous of black clouds is approaching soon and I believe that you need to know about your second power."

Raimundo looked surprised and remembered few days ago that Khu whom he was fighting against told him about second power too. "My second what...?" He asked, confusing look appear on his tan face.

-----

In the Chase Young's Cave

Khu was polishing his silver sword's blade and staring at his reflecting face on it, reminding him of the young hybrid he was fighting against in their last battle.

He frowned, scowling at the reflection of his face and shook his head. No...that's impossible... there's no way I'm relating to the kid. Probably Kobo's making it up by seeing if I'm reacted to his nonsense question. He thought, remembering he was unexpected asking by his best friend's younger brother.

(flashback)

"Khu...?" The young child of the Heylin of Light asked, looking up at his leader. Khu blinked, looking down at him from his black book in one of his hand.

"Yea?" He replied encouraging the kid say something for a reason why he was spoke so quietly and almost unsure about what he wants to say to him.

Kobo clutched his mythic mirror in his hands and a sad knowing look on his face as he looked up at him. Khu wondered why the kid looks like he was hesitating about what he want to ask him about.

But about what? He thought, frowning to himself.

"You do looks like the one you're fought and the one who you preferred him as the hybrid. Is it possible that you're might be...somehow, relating to him?" Kobo asked, looking down quickly avoiding to see his reaction.

"What..." Khu said surprised and staring at the young child, bewildering at the unexpected question. "Where did you get that idea came from!" He yelled, clenching his hands.

Kobo cringed, biting his lip in fearful. "I do not mean to!" He apologized, bowed his head in shame.

Khu blinked, being taken back and feels regretting that he yelled at the innocent kid because of that something he do not want to think about it.

"No... don't apologize, Kobo. I am the one should apologize for yelling at you." Khu sighed, pats on the kid's head.

(flashback end)

Khu sighed, placing his Shadow Blade down on the table and rested his chin in his hands, staring blankly at the wall.

The forgotten memory flashed across his mind, the young child with his teddy bear and sparking emerald eyes with full of innocent and childish joyful. He did heard the kid calling out to him and the word he do not remember what it was.

But it came to him suddenly.

"Aseso primo!"

He was startled at the imaging child spoke suddenly in his thought and frowned at it, pondering at the word that unexpected appear on his mind. Primo? What is that meant? It sound like he's speaking in Portuguese...

Primo...it means cousin in Portuguese... The voice in his mind answered to his questions, startling him a little.

Where is that did that came from? He wondered to himself, looked down at the Shadow Blade and his head fell in his hands and closing his eyes, sighing tiredly.

In the Xiaolin Temple

"So you're saying that I have a second power of lightning?" Rai asked after Master Fung was explaining everything to him, including about Kisara and Shinyu as well.

Master Fung nodded.

Rai looked down, frowning at the floor and remembers he overheard Khu told his teammates he was preferring him as hybrid he wasn't realizing it is him until now he knew.

So that explain why he wants to fight me... Rai thought.

Dojo pips up, crawled on the young dragon of wind's shoulder and smiling at him. "And that medallion you're wearing is used to belong to the former heylin of lightning, Shinyu. It's symbol of a heylin that ever since Dash's last battle."

He paused. "And I never knew you sure looks like him, although."

Rai blinked at the green dragon and frowned looking confused. Master Fung noticed this and nodded. "Ah yes, Shinyu was one of your ancestors... the one of my reasons why I choose you as one of the Xiaolin warriors. It was his last wish before his death that you will not end up in hands of the evil ones." He explained.

"How come my second power wasn't activated?" Rai asked looking up at the old monk, crossed his arms on his chest angrily.

"It did." Dojo admitted. "Since last battle you're fought against one of the strongest enemies. I actually thought the powerful attack that could kill you but your second power suddenly activated and pushed it back right at him."

Raimundo suddenly remembered something and asked Dojo. "The kid... he jumps in front of the attack. He held the strange look mirror and it is looks like it was absorbing the attack in it. What is it?"

Dojo frowned, looking thoughtful and then he nodded. "Yeah. It is called Mythic Mirror. It can absorbs any kind of energies that came from warriors and sheng-gong-wu, by doing so making them useless without powers."

Rai frowned. "And what about the pendant and the claw on two guys?"

"Elemental Pendant and Coyote's Dark Claw? The one is like the shape-changing on the owner with each of different forms with different elements and another one is more like a Golden Tiger Claw but instead of slashing portal, it can takes a quite punch either causing heavy damage on you or send you fly to mars." Dojo explained.

"How come you're not sensing them when they're being activated?" Rai argued, glaring at the green dragon.

Dojo shrugged helplessly at him. "I'm not sure. It could be one of dark spells on them so I won't able to sense them."

Master Fung placed his hand on the young dragon of wind's shoulder and looking serious on his face. "I believe you and your friends will have to get Omi back by fighting Chase Young. Remember use your power more wisely."

Rai nodded sharply at the old monk as he stood up and run out of the room, followed by the green dragon to join their two friends.

When they meet each other with three sheng-gong-wu or so. As they rode on the now large dragon and flew in the sky, toward the evil-looking cave.

Rai glared at slowly approaching cave, clenching his fist tightly and the Sword of the Storm in his other hand.

Omi, I will get you back to us. I promise you. Rai thought sadly, thinking the defeated look on the small monk.

Suddenly he felt the gentle hand on his shoulder and looked up at the beautiful crystal blue eyes belong to the dragon of fire. She smiled weakly at him.

He smiled softly at her back.

And I promise you too, Kim, I will be the one save him for what he had done for me. He thought.

"What if we lost... what become of us?" Kimiko asked her smile faded and frowned.

Rai shook his head. "I promise. It won't even happens to us. I won't let him hurts one of us, even you too. I will protect you too."

Kimiko smiled feeling little better and nodded, reaching for his hand and clutching it gently. "Me too, Rai..." She whispered softly.

As the dragon skull-looking cave came in the view, the Xiaolin Dragons will be ready for whatever coming to them.

----

In the Chase Young's Cave

Slowly opening the red dragon eyes and listening to one of his cats, the evil smile on his face.

So they're coming... Excellent. He thought smirking evilly. They do not expecting who's waiting for them, they will be forced to fight against him.

He was sitting on the demon-looking chair and the Wushan Geyser lay on his lap, for whatever unknown reasons.
