That evening, Master Fung called the Xiaolin Dragons-in-training to the Vault. "I am afraid I have some bad news," Master Fung said.
"What is it, Master Fung?" Omi asked.
Master Fung produced a scroll from the folds of his robes. "Those villains who used the Xiaolin style for evil," He said, unrolling it in front of them. The scroll had an image of a ten-pointed black star amid thousands of smaller ones. "Wuya is harnessing the ability of the Heylin Star, the sister of the sinister Heylin Seed,"
"Where's this Star?" Kimiko asked. "If it's anything like the Star Hanabi--,"
"You'll lose it to Jack Spicer," Raimundo snickered.
Master Fung silenced them. "Speaking of Jack Spicer, it seems that our 'grateful guest' has stolen all of our Shen Gong Wu, save for the Mantis Flip Coin,"
Somehow, none of them looked surprised in the least, so Master Fung decided to proceed.
He turned around and led them out to the gardens in front of the temple. After making sure they were all paying attention, he looked up at the sky and pointed out one of the millions of pinpricks of light. "There, is the Heylin Star. The source of the evil powers that your enemies are now using,"
"No big deal! We can take them," said Raimundo.
"No. When the Heylin Star is shining, their magic and powers are doubled. Anyone who would try to fight the Heylin side is a fool," Master Fung said.

"Gonna fight the Heylin Dragons, yeah, yeah, YEAH!" Jack Spicer sang, remaining one note behind to the song that was playing in the Silver Manta Ray's sound system. "Go, evil, go! Go, evil, go!" He turned up the volume and began to bob his head in rhythm with his evil theme music.
"Okay, let's see," Jack murmured. "I'll use the Mind Reader Conch to figure out their positions. Then, the Ring of the Nine Dragons will split me into four. And then, I'll use a few of the other Shen Gong Wu to lure those idiots into a trap! And then, I'll have them!"
He burst into a fit of maniacal laughter that ended up with him coughing and choking. "Either way, I, Evil Boy Genius Jack Spicer, will rule all!" Jack said, zooming past his house. "But first, I need to get some help from my best friend, Chase Young!"

The atmosphere around the Xiaolin Temple as even grimmer than after the time Mala-Mala Jong was risen. The Xiaolin Dragons and Dojo had spent all their time poring over scrolls, trying to figure out how to stop the Heylin Star. It seemed that it was about as invincible as they Heylin seed, but without a weakness like the Moonstone Locust.
"Here, this one looks a bit interesting," said Raimundo, holding up a scroll. It had the image of the Sapphire Dragon on it. The image was animated, showing the Dragon pursuing several evil-looking stick figures until it turned them into sapphire statues.
"No, we must not invoke the power of the Sapphire Dragon, lest we end up trapped once more," Omi said. Dojo shivered.
"I do NOT want to relive that nightmare episode," Dojo concurred.
"We could always use the Lunar Locket to readjust the moon to block the light of the Heylin Star," suggested Kimiko. "We'd just have to deal with the tidal waves and the ecological disasters,"
"We only have the Mantis Flip Coin, remember," Dojo said.
"Omi, do you have anything to say about this?" Clay asked, looking around for their smallest friend. "Hey, he's gone!" Clay shouted. Raimundo looked behind the stack of books and scrolls that Omi had been reading, but he wasn't there either. Dojo slithered into the Temple and shouted for him, but he didn't respond.
Kimiko had gone into the vault, but it was completely empty. No Mantis Flip Coin, no Omi, nothing...
"Omi's gone with the Mantis Flip Coin!" Kimiko shouted.
"You don't think..." Clay murmured as he approached the vault.
"He went after Jack Spicer and those dragons with the MANTIS FLIP COIN?" Raimundo demanded. "Is there a brain in that oversized head of his?"
"Well, come on, I guess we better go keep him from getting himself killed," said Kimiko, and they all left the Temple on Dojo's back in search for Omi.
