Disclaimer: I do not own Xiaolin Showdown.

Firewu- That's why I played with the idea for a while. But I think I prefer Jack over Chase.

StephanieFan- I think this is the last chapter for the day. Sorry. :(

Mimi- If you're reading this, thankies for saying Yay! when I said I was updating this.

A/N: the story starts out 3rd person

Rai was the first to see the Silver Manta Ray in the air. And when he told the others, they were off, following it.

"What if Kimiko has seen us. Will she keep it secret? Or will she inform Jack Spicer that we are following them?" Omi asked his fellow monks.

With Omi's words, Dojo stopped. He turned around to look at the others, and said, "Well, if she tells Spicer, he'll probably send some missiles or something at me. Maybe we shouldn't follow it too closely."

"That is a very wise decision Dojo. You are on your head with alert."

Rai rolled his eyes, but didn't even bother to correct him. Even if he had, he probably would've screwed it up anyways, because Kimiko's kidnaping, and the thought of her joining Spicer, was messing with his head.

Clay was the only person who didn't talk much. Well, he never really talked much, but now, it was a lot more noticeable. Instead of answering questions, he'd either shake, nod, or shrug his shoulders. He wasn't much help on the idea factor, that was for sure.

After about half an hour, they saw that the Silver Manta Ray had landed a while ago. But when it had landed didn't matter as much as where it had.

It was in front of Chase Young's lair. As much as they would've liked to, they couldn't stay outside. Dojo landed, absolutely refusing to go in seen. He insisted in being under Clay's hat at all times.

Before Omi could find the button on the wall, it began opening by itself. Of course, everyone became suspicious.

Clay finally voiced what everyone else knew they'd have to do. "We gotta go in, and round up them no good varmin, even if it is a trap."

Omi nodded, and was the first one to walk into Chase Young's trap.

I never stopped pacing the room. I was thinking way to much for me to even pay attention to my feet, which were screaming, "Stop!". Jack was voicing different ideas, each one stupider than the next.

"How about . . . we kidnap one of his jungle cats! Then, he might let us go."

"He has plenty of jungle cats. Besides, how would we kidnap a cat. Considering I'm kidnaped, by someone who is kidnaped, and I gotta marry their kidnapper?"

Jack finally grabbed my arm. I really didn't pay attention. My feet kept on walking, until he stepped on my toes.

"Ow! What the heck was that for?" I asked. God, I had on sandals! Couldn't he step on my toes a little bit lightly?

He was about to reply, but there was a knock on the window. He let go of me, and opened it. A cat slid a note into the window.

What's up with notes? This is my third one today! I thought. Jack handed me the note, still in shock that a cat gave him a note.

Miss Kimiko Tohomiko,

I would like you to join me for dinner. No running off. You must come, or else Spicer will have some unpleasant bumps and bruises.

Chase

I looked up at Jack, to tell him, but he was on the floor, eating his heart out of a large plate full of food. I sighed. Then, I heard the door open.

Seeing Chase Young in a tuxedo was something I would never forget. I stared at him, holding back the instinct to tilt my head like a dog. He smiled, looking at me strangely. Maybe the tux didn't suit him much either.

I bent down, and whispered to Jack, "I'll be back. I gotta eat dinner with this jerk." I patted his head, and walked over towards Chase.

"Well, are we going or what?" I snapped. Chase offered me his hand, and I looked at it in utter disgust. I pushed myself through the doorway, and waited for Chase to get over himself.

He walked out, not saying a word to me and began walking down a stone hallway. I followed him, not daring to run off. His cat servant was behind me. It looked ready to strike.

The hallway led to a beautiful room, a large table in the center. A vase of flowers sat on the table, as well a plates. Another chandelier hung from the ceiling. If I wasn't eating dinner with an evil person who was trying to marry me, I would have complimented their decorating style.

Chase pulled out a chair, and signaled for me to sit. I pushed him out of the way. I wasn't a two year old, I could pull out my own chairs. He smiled, and walked to the other end of the table. I was thankful the table was large, and a vase was blocking my view of him.

The jungle cats came and put plates with food on them onto the table. Chase obviously knew she was Asian, considering on her end, there was Chinese, and Japanese dishes, and on Chase's, there was a number of foods I didn't want to know about.

After I had finished the first course, Chase started the conversation.

"So, Kimiko, I wonder where your friends are at." I heard him say.

I looked up. I was very, very thankful for the vase. "Are you so sure you don't know? Maybe you have them, and won't tell me."

"Not bad. Your answer would be similar to mine, if I were in your position." he said. I heard his chair screech as he pushed it backwards, and saw him stand up. He picked up the chair, and moved next to me. I groaned. He really wanted to tick me off.

After a moment of silence, I couldn't take the quiet. "Why did you move? I was having fun not looking at you."

He grinned. "Because, I want you to look me in the eye again." He's mental, I thought. Purely mental.

"No," I said, forcing my eyes the opposite direction. I wouldn't look. I would never look.

"Come on," I heard his voice say. He was trying to get me to look. He was trying to act nice, so I would look. I'm not that easy to convince Chase, I mentally laughed.

I heard him sigh, and say, "Fine, at least look at my hands, so you can see the gift I have for you."

Hesitantly I looked. He held a gold necklace, the pendent a gold heart, diamonds encrusted in it. I looked up at Chase, disbelief clearly written on my face, and then it hit me too late. I had looked into his eyes. I couldn't believe I fell for that.

I tore my eyes away from his, and looked at my food in disgust. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Chase smile.

"You love that fool Spicer, don't you?" he asked, maliciously. Luckily, or unluckily, I was spared the trouble of answering, by the entrance of a person in tattered clothing.

"Sir, the three Xiaolin Apprentices have been captured."

Important A/N: OK, most of ya'll know school is starting soon. I start September 6th. So, when school starts, it will be very difficult to update this, or any of my stories. I'm going into 8th grade, in a gifted school, and I'm going to be taking 7 SOLs, and over 12 semester exams.

Important A/N 2: I don't like my parents reading what I write over my shoulder. And, my computer being in the kitchen isn't something that helps. So, you may notice that I'll only update at night til the school year starts. Then, I'll update in the afternoon, because I go to bed at 9. Sorry!

Thank you my reviewers! StephanieFan, Meggie Grotto, firwu, animecrazy1017, tamerterra and SpicerFreak.
