Omi: yes thanks you.
TW: Okay, I'll be right back. Rai, Omi, answer the reveiws while I go get Chase and Wuya to help. (goes to leave)
Rai:(grabs legs and holds on, begging) Please, no Wuya or Chase.
TW: DO REVIEWS!
To Kingofsouls: TW: You'll find out! ;-)
To Omi's girl 13: TW; I take a look at your story. Thanks for the hug!
Rai: Read the chapter while we try to stop her from getting Wuya and Chase!
"We have landed at the Beijing airport. Please collect your travel things and prepare to exit the plane." The pilot is heard over the speaker.
"Would you like some help, Miss?" a flight attendant asks Amelia.
Amelia gives her a questioning look. "Do I look like I need help? I got on fine," she snaps. The attendant just simply hands the girl her bags and give her the okay sign to leave the plane.
"Boy, they think that just because I can't walk, I am helpless." Amelia rolls the wheels of her wheel chair expertly.
"Master Fung, when will this plane arrive?" Omi asks as he stares out the window. He has never been in an airport before.
Master Fung chuckles at Omi. "It will be here soon, Omi, very soon."
Raimundo is rolling a soccer ball on his legs. As they wait for the new girl. "This is so boring. How come we had to climb the mountain but she get to use the Golden Tiger Claws express?"
Kimiko suddenly runs down the hall way from checking when flights would be in. "Her plane is coming! She should be here in 10 minutes!"
Clay mutters, uncontrollably, "Finally." Raimundo chuckles at his Texas friend. "Where is this girl from, anyway, Master Fung?"
"She is from Madrid, Spain. She also has a problem that we will have to deal with."
Omi stares at Fung, "Master, what kind of problem? Can she not speak or hear?"
Master Fung shakes his head, "No, it is kind of like that but she needs more help then hearing or speaking help."
After that, the group falls silent. Then Kimiko suddenly asks, "Is that her, Master?" She points to a girl in the crowd with long golden hair and pale skin. "She's short!"
"Yes that is her. Let me go help her with her luggage and we will be on our way back to the temple." The master walks over to the girl. Her clothes are jeans, a yellow t-shirt and a lighting blue over shirt.
"Hello. Are you this Master Fung I am suppose to meet?" Amelia asks, looking up from the letter in her lap as she sits in her wheel chair.
Master Fung nods, "Yes, I am him. You are Amelia, correct? We will be going. Your teammates are waiting by the door." He looks at the small suitcase and backpack she has in her lap also. "You want…"
"I can handle it." She follows him to meet everyone else.
"Where is Master Fung? He said meet him by the door." Raimundo impatiently moans.
"There they are," Kimiko suddenly points at Master Fung and Amelia coming toward them. The group suddenly rushes toward the new girl.
Suddenly, just as a person moves out of Amelia's way, they see her in a wheelchair. Omi suddenly has a confused look on his face. "Why are you in that chair with wheels? Do you have a broken bone in your leg?"
Master Fung shakes his head. Raimundo suddenly figures it out. "She is paralyzed."
"What was your first clue? The wheel chair?" Amelia suddenly snaps at him. "Now, where are we going? I can't walk to this temple, you know."
Kimiko walks up to Amelia, "Hi. I am Kimiko. You must be Amelia." Amelia gives her a glare that says 'and I care because…why?' "We will be going to the temple in a special way."
"Come on. Do you need any…" Clay starts to walk behind her and reaches to grab the handles to the chair when she suddenly moves forward.
"How are we getting to the Temple?" she repeats, this time to Master Fung. They lead her into an old closet. "Okay. What's with the closet?"
"Omi, if you would?" Master Fung nods to Omi. He pulls out the Golden Tiger Claws.
"Golden Tiger Claws!" Omi actives the Shen-Gong-Wu and creates a portal to the Temple. Amelia stares blankly at the portal. "Come on, new friend." Omi hands the Claws to Raimundo and jumps though. The rest of the group quickly follows him, leaving Raimundo with Amelia.
"Amelia, you're next." Raimundo motions to the portal.
Amelia points to the portal, "How?"
Raimundo smiles, "We will explain everything when we get home, the Temple." Suddenly, he pushes her chair into the portal and jumps in after her.
When they reach the Temple, Kimiko quickly shows Amelia her room. "This will be interesting." Amelia sighs as Kimiko leaves her to get settled. She stares at the mat on the floor and the chest. "This will be very interesting."
"Master Fung, if Amelia is paralyzed, how will she train with us? She can't jump or kick, can she?" Omi asks the master.
Master Fung shakes his head. "No, she won't be able to do that, yet. You four will have to help her do things she can't. But if she says she can do it, let her," he warns.
After a few minutes, the group sits at the table for lunch. "Amelia, would you care to explain to us why you can not walk?" Omi asks her.
Amelia sighs, "When I could walk, I was very fast. One day, let's just say, my speed failed me. A car hit me at the waist. I am lucky I am not fully paralyzed." Amelia suddenly looks at Master Fung. "I don't think this is the type of school I expected. Would someone care explaining why I was sent for?"
Master Fung sighs. Suddenly, Dojo slithers into the room and onto the table. Amelia stares in shock. "Dojo, could you wait till I call for you next time we have someone new here." Master Fung tells the dragon. "Amelia, this is Dojo. Dojo, this is Amelia, our new trainee."
Dojo slithers up to her and stares into her eyes, "Yup, she is the right person. I guess they haven't told you the whole story yet."
Master Fung cuts in, "The Xiaolin Temple is the home to the Xiaolin dragons. Omi, Clay, Raimundo and Kimiko are Wudai warriors. They collect Shen-Gong-Wu, like the Golden Tiger Claw, and stop evil in the world. We asked you to come to train with us and help collect the Wu."
"Why me? As you can probably see, I can't walk. How do you expect me to find these Shen-Gong-Wu?" Amelia laughs.
Clay sudden realizes something, "Wait a minute, how can you fight or train if you can't walk?"
"Simple, use my upper body strength." Amelia uses her arms to lift herself off her chair. "Who are this dragons you told me about?" she turns back to Master Fung.
"Your fellow warriors: Kimiko, the dragon of fire; Omi, dragon of water; Clay, dragon of earth; and Raimundo, dragon of wind." Master Fung smiles at her curiosity.
Amelia starts to laugh, "Right! And I am suppose to believe that baldy here can throw water at me without using a bowl!" Suddenly, she looks at Omi and he puts his palm at her and water flies out. That shuts her up.
"Tomorrow, we will start your training. Until dinner, use the time to get to know each other. You will, after all, be working together for a while." Master Fung walks out of the dinner hall leaving the warriors, Amelia and Dojo together in silence.
Amelia sighs, "So…how long have you three been at this?" she asks no one it particular.
"About a year and a half." Clay mumbles.
"How many Shen-Gong-Wu are there?"
Dojo answers, "I never counted. I think about 100. So far there have only been about 63 revealed."
Raimundo chuckles, "We don't have them all though. That idiot Jack Spicer as a few, less than a tenth of them."
"Who is this Jack Spicer? The 'ultimate evil' or something."
Everyone quickly glances around the table and burst into laugher. "Jack is the worst villain ever. Our only real worry is Chase Young and Wuya, who is just as pathetic as Jack." Kimiko explains.
"Yeah, if Chase was really after the Shen-Gong-Wu, we would have a whole lot less" Clay snorts.
Amelia grins, "So I see. Well, can someone show me around the Temple and give me a hand with my room?" Kimiko jumps up.
"We all will show you around the Temple and then I will give you a hand with your room." The group walks out of the room. They show her the training ground, the meditation room and the Shen-Gong-Wu vault.
"The Wu vault is pretty protected. Only we can get in. And now, you can too." Omi leads Amelia to the edge of the stairs. "This is my favorite Wu, the Orb of Tornami." He pulls out the orb shaped Wu.
"Cool." Amelia says, with no expression in her voice. "Kimiko, can you help me will my room now."
"Sure. See you guys at dinner." Kimiko follows the new girl.
At dinner, the Wudai warriors eat fast while their new teammate just pokes at her food. "I am going to bed." She says quickly, "See ya in the morning."
"Okay, wake up is at dawn." Master Fung smiles as he hears her moan. "Good night." She rolls out of the dinning hall down to the dorms.
"Master Fung, what is her element?" Rai suddenly asks.
"Huh? Oh, she will be the dragon of lightning. But this will be very difficult with her health issue." Master Fung sighs.
Omi look at his master, "Sir, are you worried about what will happen to the team with her injury?"
"Yes. I believe though there is a Wu or two that may help her. But she must learn to except help from others." Master Fung looks at the clock. "Time for bed, warriors. Goodnight." He leaves the four and Dojo alone to pick up the table.
'Why is she so bitter on the outside? I mean, she has to have some type of emotional feelings.' Clay thinks as he stares at the ceiling. Everyone has the same thoughts.
In Amelia's room, she is heard…crying? 'Why did I have to be on that road? Why?'
TW: Read and Review!
Omi: This one was okay.
Rai: Just get on to the next chapter. Bye!
