(A/N) I forgot to put the dedication on the first chapter of this fic. So I'll do it now:

DEDICATED TO DerryBabe FOR REVIEWING EACH AND EVERY ONE OF MY XS FICS AND FOR GIVING ME POSITIVE FEEDBACK EACH TIME AND FOR PUTTING ME ON HER C2 COMMUNITY WHEN SHE FIRST STARTED IT. THAT MEANS ONE HELL OF A LOT TO ME. MEGA HUG AND HUGE THANK YOU! Lots of luv, Becky. 

The training session started off with the usual obstacle course before Master Fung brought out the Shen-gong-wu. Unlike the first time they had used the mystical items in a training session. These confrontations did not last five seconds after Omi called his attack. The other three dragons had caught onto how use their instincts. What was more surprising was that after defeating Wuya, Kimiko was now put at the top of the 'to-beat' list. (A position that had previously been held by Omi since they came to the temple).

"Orb of Tsunami" called Kimiko, washing Omi over with water.

"A foolish mistake!" laughed Omi as the water began to swirl into pillars around him.

"I don't think so," said Kimiko, "Eye of Dashi!"

Lightening shot into the water and through it right up until it hit Omi, who was currently drenched from head to toe. She shuddered with it for a moment, before falling backwards into the water.

"Omi!" called Kimiko, running forward, "Sorry…I wasn't thinking properly."

"I think you were," said Omi, getting slowly to his feet before smiling broadly, "That was a very good move."

"Good move, just don't use it on your friends next time," said Clay.

"Interesting idea," said Master Fung who had been watching from a distance, "You used Omi's strength against him. I suggest that you all try to think that way next time a Showdown starts."

They were all quiet for a moment.

"Strange to think that we're not going to be facing Wuya in a showdown." Said Raimundo, "Not that I'm complaining or anything. That was one crazy bitch."

"It's good that we don't have to face her. It fills me with some form of relief knowing that we will have to come up against her again." said Omi.

"Still got Jack Spicer to deal with though." Said Clay.

"Please, he couldn't beat us even when he did have Wuya on his side," said Raimundo.

Kimiko didn't say anything. Her mind was back in than caves, thinking about what she had done. It was the right thing to do, she was sure of it…but maybe she should've shown her some mercy.

"Don't even consider it," said Dojo quietly.

Kimiko jumped; she hadn't realised Dojo was on her shoulder.

"Consider what?" asked Kimiko innocently.

"Raimundo's not the only noticed that's something's wrong with you." said Dojo, "You're distracted twenty-four seven. You know you had to leave Wuya there. Otherwise she would've killed you both. She almost killed Omi and Raimundo."

"But she didn't…I should've showed I was above her." Said Kimiko.

"Bullshit," said Raimundo walking over, "Plain and simple."

"Raimundo!" said Kimiko, "You shouldn't talk like that, especially in a temple."

"Master Fung doesn't mind…I think." Said Raimundo, "There's no point in dwelling on the past. Put it behind you and move on."

"I…I know." Said Kimiko, but deep down where she knew they couldn't see, confusion, anger and sadness were swelling like gigantic balloon.

Raimundo was still watching her closely. He knew she wasn't putting it behind her. She was too scared, she had unleashed something inside of her that day and she didn't want it to break free again. Wuya was torturing her, dead or not, and Raimundo wasn't going to stand for it.

Late at night, Kimiko was lying awake once again, trying to sort out her own confusion. Raimundo's arm was wrapped around her as she stared out of the window. She shivered slightly, despite the fact it wasn't cold.

She climbed out of bed, carefully placing Raimundo's arm on her pillow. Staring out of the window, she could see the mountains, looming above the temple like some giant building. She looked around, and saw Raimundo still sleeping. She wandered into the bathroom and stared into her mirror.

She suddenly stepped back and screamed. Looking back was Wuya, screaming as well. Kimiko looked down at her own hands. Her fingers were long and pointed. Still screaming she ran back into the bedroom where Raimundo was lying covered in blood. She felt herself being pulled back as she collapsed.

"Kimiko?" asked Raimundo, shaking her.

Kimiko was shaking her head desperately, trying to fight off some unseen force. Still screaming, she was lashing out.

"Kimiko!" shouted Raimundo.

Clay and Omi both appeared in the door way.

"Raimundo? What's going on?" asked Clay.

"There's something wrong with Kim, she won't stop screaming." Said Raimundo, trying to hold her still from behind where she had fallen on him.

"KIMIKO!" shouted Raimundo loudly.

She suddenly stopped screaming and blinked hard. Her eyes were wide and scared and she was looking around desperately.

"Kimiko, its okay," said Raimundo rocking her slightly, "I'm here."

She stared up at him before turning to face him and wrapping her arms around his neck. Tears were streaming down her face. She wouldn't stop crying.

"It's okay. You're safe." Whispered Raimundo.

"No…it's not safe…" Kimiko sobbed.

"It is, we're right here with you," whispered Raimundo.

"No…" Cried Kimiko, "It's not safe…we can't be safe…you're not safe…"

"Of course I am," whispered Raimundo.

"No Rai…she's still here," cried Kimiko, putting her fist to her chest and taking a deep breath before finishing,

"She's inside me…"

(A/N) Hopefully next chapter will be up soon…hopefully. Thank you for reading, please review! Lot's of luv, Becky.
