Chapter 4

As time goes by

Disclaimer: Well, duh! U all should know by now...

A/N: umm, ummm, uhhhhhh, yeah!

Jack walked Kimiko back to the temple the next morning. He was holding her by her waist while she loyally walked by his side.

"Hey, Jack?"

"Yeah?"

"At the temple there's a strange picture with us in it."

"So?"

"Why would Master Fung hang a picture of you, or better yet, us in the temple?"

"Okay, I have something to tell you about that." he stood in front of her and grabbed her hands.

"When I was little, I used to be one of the xiaolin dragons. But I was always the one by myself or I'd always end up getting blamed for Clay and Raimundo's mistakes. One day I wanted more power and when I got it, I needed more. I wanted the world so Master Fung kicked me out before you could even learn my name. We really are taking a risk by being with each other."

"Wow, I don't know what to say...I," Jack grabbed Kimiko from behind and kissed her on the lips.

"Promise you won't tell Master Fung that I told you this."

"Promise." she said as she ran up ahead of him laughing.

"Hey, come back!" he yelled chasing her while laughing. He finally caught her but he accidentally fell on top of her. Jack flinched, still thinking about the last time he'd done that. She looked back up at him with her seductive stare.

Later:

"Well, here I am."

Jack gave her a few goodbye kisses and then left her on her own. She walked into the surprisingly quiet temple.

Kimiko's thoughts:

'That's strange...No Omi to pester me, no Raimundo to hang with, no Clay to be the gentle cowboy type, no Master Fung tell me what to do.'

She walked to her room and pulled out her credit card. She swiped it through the side of the door and it creaked open. Everything was the same as she left it. She went back through the hallway to look for the guys. She called their names several times until she stumbled down the steps leading to the Shen-Gon-Wu storage.

"Kimiko!" said Omi in surprise. She noticed that the Shen-Gon-Wu were gone.

"Kimiko, I told you never to let that boy into this temple!"

"But, I didn't have him in the temple."

"Then why was your door locked and the music up so loud? You two were doing something in there!"

"Well, he wasn't in here, okay?"

No, it's not okay! I've told you before, not to have him here!"

"How can I have him here if I was with him last night!" Kimiko cupped her hands over her mouth.

"Oh, you were? You are forbidden to leave this temple! And I will make sure of that!"

Master Fung left and Clay went to go comfort Kimiko.

"Get your hands OFF OF ME!"

She ran to her room and locked the door again.

Jack's thoughts:

'Man, it's been days, weeks, months, years since I've heard or even seen Kimiko. I hope she's still alive. I grimaced at the thought of what could have happened to her. I must have her. I know something's wrong.'

Since Jack's jet pack was still damaged from the lightening storm, he had to walk over there. When he finally got to the temple, he noticed that it looked different. It had lots of stone statues of animals in front of it, as though they were guarding it.

Jack took one step and the stones came to life. They didn't do anything though, they were just there to scare him. Master Fung walked out.

"You've stolen from me for the last time! Don't you dare cross that line!"

Jack looked down and saw the stones set in front of him. He then looked up and saw Raimundo, Omi, and Clay standing on the steps ready to fight. Kimiko then walked out. She looked so much different.

'She dresses like me.' he thought. She wore all black. Tight fitting black jeans and a tank top and black eyeliner. She had a blank expression on her face. 'She's beautiful...damn...' Jack's hormones were going crazy.

Jack ran to her but Raimundo pushed him away with his wind powers. Jack was once again back across the line.

"You can't keep me from her!" She ran to him.

"Kimiko, don't cross that line!" yelled Master Fung after her.

"Kimiko, if you really love me you'd cross it. For me." he held out a hand. She looked back at Master Fung and took it. With the tiger claws, Jack swiped the air and made a portal back to his house.

When they returned to Jack's house Katnappe was sitting on his couch with all the Shen-Gon-Wu.

"Jack, how could you?" Kimiko ran out of the house and climbed a tree.

"Didn't I tell you that I'm done being evil! Get out!"

"Jack you silly boy. Your still a child . Don't you know you can never go back?" Katnappe called after him. Her ghost then dissapeared. She was just a meer illusion to break up Kimiko and Jack. Katnappe was still jealous.

Jack ran after Kimiko.

Now that they were 18 and could live with each other, what new things can happen next?
