Chapter 4; Home Again

Whatever the 3 dragons were expecting, it was not this. Before them lay the fields of an English country public school with kids, old and young, playing on the playing fields; chasing each other and kicking balls around. Some girls were skipping and flirting with nearby boys who were just hanging and talking. Another group was cheering a game of football on, another few people were sitting on a few benches eating their lunch and generally chatting.

Somewhere on that field was a Shen Gong Wu, and soon WuYa and Jack would be there, dragging Raimundo with them, to tear up the fields to find it.

"This is not good." Kimiko groaned as she stared hopelessly at the situation.

"You're not wrong there." Clay agreed as he scanned the skies for any signs of the enemy and Raimundo. He spotted something in the distance…

"Er…guys…we got company." He said as he watched Jack fly closer carrying Raimundo beneath him while WuYa gracefully landed in the middle of the playing field. The children scrambled out of the fields and into the buildings screaming but not all of them made it; "Jackbots! Attack!" Jacks scream was heard as he put Raimundo on the floor gently.

Kimiko, Clay and Omi were on the field and defending the kids within seconds…

Kimiko jumped up high and called out "fire!" before landing in front of a boy who was probably a year or two older than she was, and swung her leg out in a round house kick that sent the machine flying to the ground…destroyed.

Omi ran along the field and picked up several children whilst dodging the robots and destroying one here or there, he then reached the school building and left the children to run inside before going after WuYa who was currently looking for the Shen Gong Wu.

Clay rammed two bots into another 3 bots and managed to leave it all in a nice pile on the green but he was hit from behind by an unseen force. He rolled to his left and jumped back up bring his leg up to his enemies head but stopped himself as he saw who it was.

"Rai?" he asked as he watched his friend waver slightly. He looked awful; there were black rings under his eyes, he looked thinner than before and he also looked dead, an empty shell of what he used to be…

"Raimundo! Attack him!" WuYa's screechy voice resonated across the field. Raimundo raised his hands and took on a fighting stance then waited for Clay to make a move…and still his face was void of expression.

"Rai, I'm not gonna fight you, you don't have to do this." Clay began but he was cut off as WuYa's voice sounded again;

"ATTACK!"

With that Raimundo moved faster than the wind and planted a forward kick on Clay's nose, he then ducked down and swung a low kick at Clay's shins which knocked him down to the floor. 'He may look weary but he still packing a punch' he thought to himself as he stood up again…'now Kimiko got through to him last time, but that didn't work for long so what we need is time…I know!'

Clay brought his booted foot up level with Raimundo's head and stood there waiting for him to make a move. As predicted, WuYa's screech was heard and Raimundo moved in for a high kick but Clay was quicker; he sprung his boot right into Raimundo's face causing him to see stars. He watched as Raimundo flew backwards onto the floor. He stayed poised ready if Raimundo threw an attack at him, but he didn't. Clay had knocked him into the next world…he was unconscious.

Clay gave a small sigh of relief and apologized to Raimundo's inert form as he gently picked the boy up. He quickly looked around to find out where his other friends were only to come face to face with Jack Spicer.

"Hand the dude over now and I'll spare your miserable life when I'm ruler of the world." He said hovering just in front of Clay, with WuYa standing slightly behind him.

"That there ain't gonna happen coz you ain't never gonna rule the world partner!" Clay retorted and spotted Dojo with Kimiko and Omi heading his way.

He went to put Raimundo down but at the last minute he jumped up and on to dojo who timed it just right by flying up just behind WuYa but to the left a little so he could fly past her and Jack.

"NO!" WuYa screeched, "They're getting away with him!" she squealed again whilst conjuring her dark Magick up to throw at them, but alas she was not yet at her full power…

'That's ok…he's still mine until loves first kiss, and those brats won't realise what thatmeans until its too late.' She thought to herself and she watched the dragons escape her clutches once more.


Zero; Well? Sorry it was short but I have to go to bed now, its 23.13 here! Night!

Zero; o.O I didn't think muses could be tired…oh well
