Chapter 11: Golden Tiger Claws-Rioss

Rioss' POV

It's painful to remember those years, the ones that happened so long ago... When I was frozen and sealed. I remained frozen until Chase Young's good chi dragon escaped. I do not fear the Heylin Curse, as I am not of Heylin Blood. But, my ancient bride, mother of my child, was. That is why I must defeat the Xiaolin Dragons, who wish to harm my attempts. They want to interfere with my destiny, the reason I came to this world.

I know he's coming. I hear him approach. He wants what I took from him. I took many things from him, but he only wants one. Well, he wants some of the others, but he really only wants one. Too bad for him, that I want that one thing as well. And only I know its true power.

I ignore Mihira's cries of rage. All he wants is to break free. He doesn't want to be with his bretheren. He was the only one who ever wanted a different destiny. I still don't know why, but he still only speaks to those whom blood is tied with those of Heylin Descent.

"Hello?" asks a meek voice. I suppose he used his detector-bot to find me. I love Xiaolin Showdowns, and I think that a Shen Yi Bu Dare will be a nice way to finish everything off. So, out of the two here I need, I will part with my favorite, and keep his.

"Greetings, Jack Spicer! I see you managed to track the Shen Gong Wu I took from you! Was it perhaps because of..."

"Enough chit chat! I've come to take back my Shen Gong Wu! Jack Bots, ATTACK!"

I smirk at his confidence. "Now, Jack, be reasonable. I only want a few of the Shen Gong Wu. I'll give you the rest, just as long as I get what I want. You won't even need to lose your robots."

Jack became furious at this. He seems to like being told he's strong, which means he's an egotist. Typical of his kind. "What makes you think I can't beat you with my robot army?"

I laughed just then. He seemed to think he was up against a weaker being than one of the Xiaolin Dragons. I told him my history, my tale. I told him how I was trying to summon my ancient creature of power. I told him of how one of the most powerful Shen Gong Wu required the use of several others to activate, and how I had almost everything I needed. His jaw almost reached the floor. The fear in his eyes became evident after a while.

He just stared as I finished my tale. "Okay. How about a deal? I get the Monkey Staff, Serpent's Tail, Reversing Mirror, Changing Chopsticks, Glove of Jisaku, Jetbootsu, Two-Ton Tunic, and Helmet of Jong? You can have whatever you need out of the rest," said Jack, his confidence back.

I just looked at him and said, "Or, how about my deal? I pick either the Monkey Staff or the rest of the Shen Gong Wu, and you get what I don't pick?" I grinned, showing my razor sharp teeth. He screamed and nodded weakly.

Jack's POV

My back hurts. He threw me out with the Glove of Jisaku, Two-Ton Tunic, Helmet of Jong, Jetbootsu, Changing Chopsticks, Reversing Mirror, Serpent's Tail, and a toothbrush. A TOOTHBRUSH! The guy's insane. He thought he created some of the techniques the Xiaolin Losers use! Well, with Wuya gone, I know he's dangerous. And that's something only I know. They're going to come asking me for the Monky Staff so that they can 'protect' the Shen Gong Wu. I remember when I used my tickle-bot to get Raimundo, Kimiko, and Clay to tell me the combanation to the vault. I loved making them suffer, even though it doesn't take a genius to figure out the way in!

I started laughing, until I realized that what I just said could be taken the wrong way. 'I really need to get a hobby OTHER than making awesome robots,' I thought to myself.

Rioss' POV

Well, now I'm bored. Even with the Monky Staff, I'm still missing three of the Shen Gong Wu I need. And Now Mihira is nothing if in a rage. The hardest part is coming, but it won't be too much of a problem if everything continues to go exactly the way I planned. Relunctantly, Mihira complied as I shouted, "Golden Tiger Claws!" and opened a warp to the location of the Ox's Horn.
