"Yahoo! Chinese New Years is today!" Raimundo shouted running from room to room "Chinese New Years is today! Chinese New Years is today!" Since noon Raimundo had been running around with unlimited energy shouted those same words over and over again. Now it was in the evening and all the lanterns they had put up the previous day were lit and swaying with the wind
"We heard you the first time!" Kimiko said throwing her pillow at his face
"Yeah, calm down a bit" Ari said walking out of his room throwing the curtain over the door way behind him.
"But Chinese New years is awesome! Fireworks, cotton candy, dances! Fun stuff!" Raimundo said jumped up and down anxiously
"Yes! I shall try my hand at catching those little fishies again this year!" Omi said with glee clapping his hands
"I don't even get how to play that game... There's only a ring, no net!" Raimundo said shrugging. Ari stretched
"Urg, do we have to wear these clothes?" Ari groaned holding up his chinese outfit, which was a sheer white lined with a silver embroidery of a phoenix on the back along with two dragons twisting themselves around the pant legs.
"Well, Master Fung said we did" Kimiko said "At least you don't have to wear a stupid kimono! And these shoes hurt like crazy..."
"Aw it ain't all bad" Clay said "At least Master Fung let us skip chores today"
"Yeah." Everyone agreed.
"So, where're we going anyways?" Kimiko asked combing her hair
"Well," Ari grinned scratching at his cheek with one finger "I made a deal with Dojo that if he took us to China town, then we'd enjoy ourselves there. I'd have to buy him lots of cotton candy though"
"Hey yeah! Cause Chinese New Years is the best in China!" Raimundo cheered.
"Aren't we already in China?" Kimiko asked raising an eyebrow
"Well, techniquely we're only in the mountain region" Ari explained "We have to go down the mountain to civilization in order to find the booths and stuff"
"Sounds like a plan" Clay smiled "So when we goin'?" Ari looked back in his room seeing the clock read 7:37 PM
"Actually we've gotta get going really soon" Ari said "Before 8 O' Clock hits"
"Yahoo! Let's get going!" Raimundo said dashing into his room
"Great, when everyone's ready meet in the court yard" Ari called.
Whenver everyone was out and ready, all the boys wore the same clothing only different colors. Raimundo's clothing was sapphire blue with gold dragons twisting around as a design, Clay still wore his cow boy hat and his clothing was emerald green with silver bamboo decorating it and Omi wore his same type of clothing only it was the one when he went to the Emperors palace to get the Golden tiger claws. Kimiko, being the only girl wore a light blue kimono with a red sash tied at the back into a big bow, her hair was put up into a bun held by a comb.
"Everyone ready?" Ari asked while everyone nodded "Alright, let's go!"
ʓʓ
"Whoa look at all the people!" Kimiko said looking down at the festival grounds in China
"Ooh, I have never seen so many people and colors and I have never smelt so many new smells at once!" Omi said leaning over Dojo. Clay sniffed the air
"Hmm, Cotton candy, Fried noodle, fried vegetables..." he said picking out the different scents "Whoo, tons of food!"
"Arg, enough" Ari said laughing "You're gonna make me hungry!"
As soon as they touched the ground some feet away from the festival, Dojo turned back into a gecko and coiled himself around Ari's neck
"Now, how about that cotton candy?" Dojo asked putting his claws together.
"We'll have to walk it, people here are going to freak if they see Dojo fly us directly there" Ari said
"Why's that?" Raimundo asked .
"Chinese people are supersticious, trust me, they can get so paranoid if one little thing goes wrong in their life" Ari said "It's not a very nice thing to experience"
"Ooh, great... Stupid shoes..." Kimiko groaned pulling up the hem of her kimono and walking a few steps behind the boys. After a few minutes, Raimundo turned to Kimiko
"I could carry you if you want" Raimundo offered holding out his hand.
"Thanks, but no thanks" Kimiko said and stumbled forward "Eek!"
"Oh no, I'm gonna carry you before you can't even walk!" Raimundo said scooping Kimiko up in his arms
"Hey! Lemme down!"
"No chance there!" Raimundo grinned "Yo! Hurry up you guys!"
"Yeah yeah!" Ari glared but it softened into a smile "We're coming!" As they neared the city the music got louder as children ran from here to there waving around lanterns and showing off the gold fish they had caught in tiny little bags.
"Oooh! Fishies! I shall return, with a fish! Whom I shall name!...Um... Whom I shall name..." Omi furrowed his brow trying to think of a name for his little friend "I shall name his as soon as I find him!" he zoomed off to the nearest gold fish stand.
"Come one Rai! Let's go watch the lion dances!" Kimiko said dragging him behind her
"Wah! hey!" Ari looked after them and tapped his head
"I'll be right back, ok Clay? Sorry to leave you alone like this" he said apologizing and handing him some money "Go and try enjoy yourself, ok?" he smiled and ran off into the crowd. Clay just stared after him and looked down at the money in his hands shrugging
"Might as well get some grub I suppose" he said to himself
"Ooh can I have some cotton candy? PLEASE?" Dojo asked wrapping himself around Clay's hat.
ʓʓʓ
"NO! COME BACK MY FRIEND!" Omi cried abandoning the ring used to chase the fish into the plastic cup and using his hands to grab his slippery fishy friend.
"Hey! Don't do that! You'll kill the fish that way!" the man said glaring at Omi, who immiediatly removed his hands from the water with his eyes dialated
"I will kill the fish? I AM A MURDERER!" Omi screamed running away "AAHHHH!"
"Hey! Come back here and pay!"
"AHHHHH!" Omi continued to run screaming until he hit a wall and looked up "Clay? What are you doing here?" The cowboy sighed
"I dunno what to do, I've never been to one of them, Chinese New Years thingies..." Clay said with his chin resting on his hand "Plus I don't understand half of what most of the people here are sayin'!"
"Well, maybe we should go see what Raimundo and Kimiko are doing!" Omi said "And play some games!" That seemed to lift Clay's spirits
"Sure, sounds fun" he smiled standing up from the bench he was sitting on and following the little yellow pacman, er, the little monk! Soon after tons of walking, Omi and Clay spotted Raimundo among the crowd of chinese people since he was the only one with brown hair that stood out
"Hey! Rai!" Clay called, Raimundo turned around a waved him over
"About time you got here! The lion dance is gonna start!" he grinned "Hey uh, where's Ari?"
"He said something about being right back" Dojo said over Clay's shoulder licking his pink claws (From the cotton candy).
"Oh well, his loss I guess" Raimundo shrugged and stuck his hand in his pocket and pulled out a water balloon hanging off of a rubber band "Look what I won! Kinda neat huh?" He bounced it up and down like a yo-yo.
"Ooh! A balloon filled with water!" Omi said staring at the water balloon bouncing up and down "Like the orb of Tornami!"
"So, you do anything yet?" Raimundo asked Clay who shrugged
"Nothin' excitin' or anythin'" he said "I was solo the whole night"
"Ah cheer up big fella" Raimundo said patting his shoulder "Now come on! Kim's in front"
"Kim?" Clay said raising his eyebrow smiling "Nicknames now eh?"
"Oh shut up..." They pushed their way through the crowd meeting with Kimiko, who had a clear view of the whole stage
"What took you guys so long? I'm suppose to be the slowest with these stupid shoes on" she frowned, her little hands on her hips.
"Well SORREE" Raimundo snipped and looked up on the stage "So, what's up first?"
"Well, first it's the lion dances, then the little school kids choir, and then the singing competiton" Kimiko said looking at a schedule.
"Oh! Are you going to sing Kimiko? I read in my ancient scroll females sing very well!" Omi said holding up the giant tombe.
"Maybe, I'm thinking about it" she said. Clay grinned to himself when he saw Raimundo square his shoulders trying to make himself look taller smiling. He felt a tap on shoulder and turned around
"Hi! sorry again for leaving you alone" Ari smiled rubbing behind his head "I kinda... Had to take care of something important"
"It's ok. As long as ya made it back" Clay said
"Great! Now let's watch the Lion Dance!" Raimundo said happily.
"Sorry kids, no time!" Dojo suddenly said
"Wha?"
"Huh?" the five of them looked at the dragon bewildered
"New Shen Gong Wu, no time to to watch!" Dojo said and pointed down the isle of booths and stands "It's over there somewhere" The five of them looked down at where the dragon pointed and all hung their heads sighing
"Aw... I wanted to watch the dancing lions..." Omi said with disappointment as the loud drums began to play
"Let's just get going!"
"FINE!"
ʓʓʓ
"Ok, Dojo, where would the Shen Gong Wu be?" Kimiko asked while they walked through China Town
"First of all, what in heck are we suppose to be looking for?" Raimundo said
"How am I suppose to know? I didn't bring the scroll" Dojo shrugged as they turned a corner and saw...
"More booths?" Raimundo shouted drawing staring eyes to him "For crying out loud!"
"Featured tonight, Crazy screaming Brazilian plagues the paranoid asians on Chinese new years" Kimiko humoured
"Hey!"
"Split up, I'm sure we'll find it easier that way" Ari said
"Cool, I'll with Kimiko and Dojo, You guys get Omi!" Raimundo grinned giving a thumbs up to Clay and running off "Let's go find us a Shen Gong Wu!" Ari shook his head and turned to Clay and Omi
"Ok, where should we look first?" Ari asked
"But we don't even know what we're lookin' for" Clay said fixing his hat "For all we know it might at one of themgame booths"
"Ooh! I love games!" Omi cried running towards the stands "I shall find what game the Shen Gong Wu it located!"
"Omi wait!" Ari called and sighed hanging his head
"Well, Guess we could have some fun while we're lookin' for it" Clay suggested.
Ari smiled "Sounds like a plan"
(Kimiko, Raimundo and Dojo...)
"Ok, now what do we do?" Raimundo asked looking around at the crowd
"Well, we could start by LOOKING" Kimiko said walking past him holding out Dojo "Come on you Wu detector... Work your magic!"
"Yeah Kimiko, magic..." Dojo retorted and jumped off her hands to slither on the ground
"You know, you're going to get stepped on that way" Raimundo pointed out glancing at every one of the stands
"Yeah right, like I'd be slow enough to let people come close to me-" Dojo hissed before a shoe nearly kicked him in the air "Hey! Watch it! Arg! AH! NOO!"
"Arg..." Kimiko groaned as Dojo crawled back up to her shoulder
"Carry me...? Please?" he asked in an innocent pathetic voice.
(Omi, Clay and Ari...)
"Yay! I won myself the Orb of Tornami!" Omi shouted in triumph holding up the water balloon yo-yo
"Not what we're looking for..." Ari said shaking his head and peered to the side seeing an shooting gallery with tiny stuff plushies on stands for people to shoot at with cork loaded guns to knock them off and win them. Blinking for a moment staring at the game, Ari looked side to side seeing if Omi or Clay were looking and seeing they weren't, dashed straight for the gallery.
"Ok... you may have failed last year but this year's gonna be different! I will win!" Ari said to himself and after paying the man picked up the gun and held it up pulling the trigger
"Ari, what're ya doin'?"
POP!
"Ooh so close!" the man said "Care to play again? Only 46 yen!"
"GAH! SHI- I mean, COW! I MISSED!" Ari shouted clutching his head and whirling around to meet face to face with Clay "Ummm... I'm trying to win a Shen Gong Wu! Er, Maybe it is a Shen Gong Wu! Uh.. heh heh" he laughed nervously rubbing behind his head trying to hide the toy gun behind his back.
"Ya mean that stuffed dog?" Clay asked gesturing to the little dog plushie of a cute white and furry Pomeranian (You know, those little yappy dogs that're really cute?)
"Uh... guh! Er..." Ari babbled for a moment and hung his head in shame "Sorry, I like dogs! I'll stop..." There was a loud pop which made Ari jump and look around seeing Clay with one of the cork guns in his hands
"Here you go sir!" the man said handing Clay the stuffed dog. The cowboy looked at the dog for a moment and handed it to Ari
"Here," he said simply "Since I made ya miss" Ari accepted the dog, his face turning pink from behind his dark hair
"Well, um..." he said and grabbed Clay into a hug "THANK YOU!" Clay froze for a moment staring down at Ari
"Whoa... Steady there partner" he said holding his hands up. Ari grinned sheepishly rubbing behind his head releasing Clay
"Sorry, I really like dogs" he said "Plus it's the first time someone ever won something for me!" Clay smiled
"It's ok, we're s'pose to be enjoyin' ourselves too remember?" he said as Omi bounced towards them
"Clay, Ari, What are you doing?" he asked "Ooh a doggy!"
"Yeah, the cow boy won it" the man said "He really killed that sucker!" Ari and Omi both stared at him then the dog
"PLEASE DON'T DIE!" they both cried hugging the dog while Clay smiled weakly at them
"Oh boy... Two Omi's..."
(Kimiko, Raimundo and Dojo...)
"Arg, we've been walking around for hours..." Raimundo whined dragging his feet "Oh, when will it end?"
"You dork! We've only been walking for 30 minutes!" Kimiko said and glowered at her shoes "Curse you..."
"What was that?" Raimundo said but was cut off
"BWAHAHAHAHA!" Raimundo and Kimiko automaticly dropped into a fighting stancing hearing the laughter again "BWAHAHAHAHAA! NO ONE CAN BEAT ME!"
"Eh?" the trio walked over to a cheering crowd seeing a man kicked a ball savagly into a net while a poor little skinnier boy, er man ducked holding his head trying not to get his nose smashed in
"SO! IF ANYONE CAN BLOCK HIS BALLS YOU GET A FREE PRIZE! INCLUDING FIVE DOLLARS!" a man announced "Ching! Do you have any words to say?" Ching, the big man kicking the ball, snatched the microphone and bellowed into it
"I LIKE SEE ANYONE TRY BEAT ME! I CRUSH WHO TRIES TO ASHES!" The crowd went wild whooping and betting money. Dojo rubbed his chin
"Free prize eh?"
"Think it could be the Shen Gong Wu?" Kimiko asked. Raimundo was stretching his legs and jumped up
"Well! I'm off!" he said trotting to the stage
"Hey! What're you doing?" Kimiko asked
"Duh, to win the prize? If it's gonna be the Shen Gong Wu might as well give it a shot, plus fire bucks is totally worth it!" Raimundo grinned giving a thumbs up "No troubles! I'll win!"
"I really hope so..." Kimiko whispered sighing inwards.
"Hiya!" Raimundo waved "I'll try you!" Ching turned towards Raimundo and laughed
"You? Try to stop my balls? You too skinny!" Ching laughed
"And you're grammer really sucks bad." Raimundo scowled and smiled "KA CHING!" Ching furrowed his brows and tried to puff himself up
"You dare mock name?" he glared
"Oh no of course not!" Raimundo said backing away with a face of fright and then smiled his smile, full of mischief "KA CHIIING!" with a shove Ching pushed Rai into the net
"PLAY! NOW!" Ching demanded and slammed the ball onto the stage "I WIN! YOU BREAK!"
"Ok man..." Raimundo shrugged "KA CHING A DING! BLING!" Kimiko giggled from behind her hand watching Raimundo taunt the now angry contestant.
"GRAAAAH!" Ching roared with flames in his eyes shooting the ball at Raimundo as almost a tiny cyclone formed around the ball. Raimundo bent down and closed his eyes remember some of his training that was somewhat amusing to him back at the temple.
Remember Raimundo, your element is Wind. The power of attack and defense. Channel your wind into a sphere and strike at the focal point of the attack to reverse it.
Raimundo grinned to himself while the air swirled and gathered into an orb in his hands
"RAIMUNDO! STOP! PUT ME DOWN!" Omi cried while Raimundo tossed him constantly in the air using the wind as some sort of bat.
"Wind!" Raimundo said smoothly catching the ball in his hands and twirling it around propelling it back at Ching knocking the breath out of him and knocking him over. There was long silence until the crowd broke into sudden applause and cheers, some disappointed that their champion lost.
"WINNER! Uh, name?"
"Raimundo"
"WINNER RAIMUNDO!" The man announced holding up Rai's hand to show he was victorious while the crowd clapped and howled again. Kimiko grinned clapping as hard as she could, happy that her friend won so easily against the giant baffoon.
"So, uh, what do I get for a prize?" Raimundo asked
"Yes yes! In the back!" the man said eagerly leading Raimundo from the stage, Rai waved Kimiko over so they both could go see if the prize was Shen Gong Wu, or not.
(Omi, Clay and Ari...)
"I wonder what Rai and Kim are doing" Ari said hugging his dog
"Maybe they are having as much fun as we are!" Omi grinned
"Maybe" Clay shrugged. Ari sighed and sat down on a nearby bench resting his chin on his curled fist
"Man, China town is bigger then I remember" he said as Clay and Omi sat on either side of him
"Yeah, Maybe bigger then Texas" Clay said taking off his hat and scratching his head. Ari stared at him for a moment with his head leaning to the side
"I hardly ever see you without your hat," he said "Why do you always keep it on?"
"I just like my hat" Clay said placing it back on his head "B'Sides, I never see your whole face" Ari chuckled
"Touche'" he said and looked down at the toy dog "He still needs a name"
"How about Omi!" Omi suggested gesturing to himself
"That's your name dope" Ari noogied his head.
"Well, how 'bout Buddy?" Clay suggested, Ari shook his head
"Nah, everyone uses buddy. It's not original enough"
"Perhaps... Chicken!"
"For a dog? Nah..."
"Po-chi!"
"Hmm, don't really think so..." Clay cupped his cheek in his hand his eyebrows knitted together in concentration, who knew thinking of a name for a dog would be so hard! He stared at the toy dog sitting in Ari's lap. Well, it was white... and really fluffy and small and- Hey wait a sec!
"Fluffly..." Clay said outloud "I know! Let's call it Dandelion!"
"Huh?" Ari and Omi stared at him
"Well, it's white a puffy like a dandelion when it's turned to fluff, so why not?" Clay said. Ari seemed to look as if he was thinking it over
"Hm, Well, dandelion would really suit this dog" he said then smiled "Yeah! why not? but since Dandelion is a bit plain, let's translate it to Tanpopo, Dandelion in Japanese"
"Tanpopo eh? Got a nice ring to it" Clay said reaching over and petting the dog on the head. Even though it was just a toy, it was kinda... Cute. After a while, Ari stood up.
"Well, we better keep looking" he said and stared up in a daze
"Is something the matter?" Omi asked tugging on Ari's pant leg.
"Look" he said pointing upwards seeing a green dragon flailing towards them.
"GUYS! GUYS!" Dojo shouted and turning back int oa Gecko fell on Clays hat
"What's wrong?" Ari asked
"Raimundo and Kimiko found the Shen Gong Wu but..." Dojo swallowed "Chase Young is there too!" Clay, Omi and Ari stared in shock
"I managed to get the Shen Gong Wu out of there but Kim and Rai are trapped! Some sorta soccer compitition..." Dojo said handing Omi and long sword "I think it's called the Heaven Blade, but I'm not too sure. I know it can cut stuff though"
"You said Chase Young, right?" Ari asked as he began to shake.
"Yeah, I think I did" Dojo said and gagged as Ari grabbed him by the throat
"Take me where they are NOW!" Ari barked "I need to get to them as soon as possible!"
"Ok ok! Just...let..me...breathe!" Dojo gasped and transformed back into a dragon drawing gasps and stares along with chinese insults and cusses "Hop on then!"
"Hey wait for us!" Clay called jumping on behind Ari and Omi behind him.
"I most certainly hope Kimiko and Raimundo are ok..." Omi said with a worried tone.
ʓʓʓ
"YEOW!" Raimundo cried as he was thrown against a wall
"Rai!" Kimiko knelt beside Raimundo seeing if he was ok and glared up at Chase with fiery rage
"My Kimiko, don't you look dashing" Chase smirked. Kimiko pulled the comb out of her hair pointing it at Chase
"Tangle web comb!" she shouted as the threads flew out trying to snatch as Chase, who danced out of it's reach and threw Kimiko towards the wall
"EEK!"
"I got ya!" Raimundo doved behind Kimiko as they both slammed into the wall. Raimundo groaned in pain and Kimiko held her head as dizzyness took over
"Well, I have no use for you two, I only need Omi and Omi only" Chase said snatching the fallen web comb off the floor "Not really my style but it will have to do, Tangle web comb!" the threads twined themselves around Kimiko and Raimundo's bodies, around their mouths slowly crushing them.
"K-Kimiko..." Chase couldn't help but chuckle
"You can't save her fool, you can't even save yourself" he said and his eyes narrowed as a shadow loomed above him.
"Heaven Blade!" the thin sword easily sliced through the tangle web comb strands as if they were made out of cheese.
"Raimundo! Kimiko!" Omi and Clay ran towards their friends as Ari stood in front of them holding the Heaven Blade
"Ah, I remember you" Chase grinned "Arisu, correct?" Ari seemed to bristle and readied himself into a fighting stance for armed combat.
"Glad you still remember Chase, I'm surprised" he said "Now, let's say this, winner take all? For old times sake"
"Why not? I have missed you for quite some while" Chase said drawing his own sword that looked identical to the Heaven Blade.
"Wha- What'd I miss?" Raimundo asked and winced "Ow!"
"Quit your movin'" Clay said softly holding the Tear Drop Pendent to Raimundo "You're not done healin' yet"
"What about Kimiko! Is she ok?" Raimundo asked suddenly bolting up
"I'm fine" Raimundo's face was of relief as he saw Kimiko's elegant form kneel beside him "Just stay put and heal, ok?"
"Ok..."
"Ready?" Chase asked twirling his sword around and pointed it at Ari
"As ready as I'll ever be" Ari's serious face broke into a smile as they both lunged.
Authors notes: BAH! SO MUCH WORK IN SCHOOL! Heh heh, this chapter was kinda fun to write, I was able to show Ari's childish side! YAY!
