Rai gasped as he saw the person.
"Jack Spicer?" He whispered.

Chapter 6: Two for the Price of One (Part 2)
Raimundo could not believe it.
Well, he could almost believe it.
Jack Spicer was the murderer.
Rai could not believe that Kimiko was killed by Jack Spicer.
"Are you going to just stand there, staring in the beautiful eyes of Jack Spicer, evil boy genius, or do something?" Jack asked.
Rai came back to earth and realized he was still holding Jack by the neck.
"What were you doing?" Rai asked, squeezing Jack's neck harder.
"Can't, Breathe!" Jack managed out.
Rai loosened his grip.
"Alright already, it was a joke!" Jack spat out. "Look at that knife I was holding, it's rubber!"
Rai let Jack go and picked up the daggar. Rubber.
"Since you don't need me, I'll be---Ahhhhhh!" Jack ducked and screamed as Rai threw the rubber knife at him.
"You're crazy!" Jack said as he took off. Rai smirked.
He continued to walk down the tunnel. He kept walking until he found a room. It was all dark inside and was bare excluding a hole in the wall.
Rai walked up to it and put his hand in the hole. His hand had found something in the hole. He grabbed it and pulled it out. He looked it them. They were a pair of silver goggles. He found the Goggles of Dashi! Rai smiled. The easy part was over. He now had to find Clay, Omi, and Dojo. That was the hard part.
Rai sighed and turned around. He saw someone standing in the shadows.
"Jack Spicer, what are doing? Hey wait, you're not Jack Spicer. What are you doing here?" Rai asked.
The person came nearer.
"Ummm, what are you doing?" He asked the person.
The person just walked closer until he was at arms length to Raimundo.
"Oook, you're freaking me out right now..." Rai said as he experienced an eerie feeling.
The person pulled out a gold encrested daggar.
Realization struck Rai as he realized that this person is the murderer. Before the murderer had a chance to plunge it into Raimundo, the murderer was on the floor with his hand over his new wound on his lower jaw from Rai's hand.
Rai ran out of that room as soon as he realized he had a chance to run.
The murderer pulled himself together, picked up the daggar after he had dropped it, stood up, and began chasing after Rai.
Rai continued running through the tunnel, screaming for help. A certain blond cowboy stuck his head out of a hole in the wall which surprised Rai, of course.
"What's the matter?" Clay asked.
Rai had stopped when he saw the his hat poke out of the wall. He was gasping for air and couldn't breathe.
"Didja find the goggles?" Clay asked again.
Rai nodded.
"The murderer..." Rai mumbled.
Clay's eyes went wide as he realized what Rai had mumbled.
"Keep runnin' down the tunnel, and we'll meet back at the fork!" Clay shouted before he left. Raimundo just continued running.
It wasn't long until the two boys met up with each other. They went the way Omi had gone originally to find the little guy. However, they were stopped by rocks that were blocking the way.
"Oh man, what are we gonna do?" Clay asked tiredly.
"Fight him off." Raimundo replied confidently.
Clay looked at him as if Raimundo had three heads.
"What do ya mean, Rai?" Clay asked in disbelief.
"I mean, there is only one of him and two of us. We could probably hold him off." Rai answered.
"But he has weapons!" Clay shouted.
"It's our only choice." Raimundo answered sadly.
Clay nodded.
It was all silent, except for the sound of footsteps getting louder and louder, until the murderer was there.
"Well now, I have you right where I want you, Clay. And look! I've got two for the price of one!" the murderer said dully.
"It will be a million years before you can kill me, and even then you could not, old man." Rai said confidently, getting into a fighting stance.
"Ohh, why can't you make this easier for yourself and surrender?" the murderer said as if he were talking to babies.
"Because you're a dirty snake!" Clay said.
"Oh now, you've insulted me! Kimiko was a lot easier to kill, she didn't even scream." the murderer smirked.
At the sound of her name, Rai ran straight for him and tried to punch him again, but he was too quick. He grabbed Raimundo by the neck and...
Omi was lost. He did not where he was going and he did not care. Ever since there was that rockslide behind them, Dojo was talking non-stop. It was as if Omi's talkingness was placed into Dojo.
Dojo was talking about the time he was last in this cave with Dashi and what had happened to their map. Dojo smiled. He had gotten dust in his nose and sneezed a fireball out, which burned the map. Dashi was so mad. They had almost left the cave with the Shen-Gong-Wu, because it was so useful.
Omi turned his thoughts on something else, like what would've happened if Kimiko was still alive. But his thoughts were interrupted by two screams and then two thumps. Something had happened. Omi had to find out what. So he ran in the direction of the noise.
