The Time has Come

Smurf-Chan

The Finding of the Light

"Our first clue?" Rai asked. "It doesn't even make since, and it's not a very good rhyme either." Christie looked at Raimundo and said.

"That's the point." She said looking back at the paper, and then put it in her pocket. Then as the warriors were about to leave, Alliyah came through the door and said.

"Well, Well." She said and everyone turned to face her. "Omi, you said that I was imagining things and that they wouldn't come." She then grinned. "But look, they are here." She then put her hand on the little warrior and said. "Are you sure you're on our side? Did you not pledge an oath to my brother?" Omi looked down and did not say anything. Chris then glared and said.

"He wanted to fight, but we chose to leave." Alliyah laughed.

"Don't lie for him." As Alliyah spoke Zen and Zalak came from behind, Zen looking down and gloomy and Zalak had an evil grin on his face. Alliyah looked at Zen and said. "They need to be punished. Go get them." Zalak stepped forward and cracked his knuckles.

"My pleasure!" Zen just stood where he was and brought out his Katana. Alliyah grinned and said.

"I guess I won't have to worry about you anymore, come Omi." She said putting a hand on his shoulder. "My brother needs to see you." And they walked off. Rai gritted his teeth as Omi was gone to them again. Chris then glared at Zalak, she didn't like his feel; it was like seeing pure evil, but dipped into much worse. This was the worst aura she had ever felt.

"Who are you?" She asked Zalak. Zalak with his teeth showing of blood replied.

"Someone who will kill you!" He then charged at her. Her teeth gritted as he charged and collided with her. She tried to reach for her sword, but was unable to. He was fast, much faster than Chris. He was on top of her trying to claw her and bite her, anything to taste her blood. She was holding him back as much as her strength would allow.

"Chris!" Rai said trying to run to her aide, but Zalak was able to kick him and send him flying to where he was. Chris saw him trying to help, and said.

"I can take care of him! Take care of the other one!" She then kicked Zalak in the face to get him off of her. She rolled on her back and got out her sword and held it towards his face. She was breathing hard trying to catch her breath and stay calm.

"You're scared, aren't you?" He teased and then swiped at her sword to get it away from his neck. He then tried to claw her, but Chris back flipped to avoid the hit. She then held her sword in front of herself and said.

"I'm not scared of anything!" She then charged at him, and then swung her sword at him, but he was able to catch her sword and then break it. She then looked in shock at her handle and the little remaining piece of her sword she had. The rest fell like glass towards the ground. "My sword!" Chris said then looked up to see Zalak about to hit her. She then backed away, and then threw her remaining sword at his face. He then tried to dodge, but the sword scratched his cheek. He just grinned, and wiped off the blood.

"Ooooo… that hurt." He said and then went after her. She dodged and then went to kick him in the face, but he grabbed her leg and held her in mid-air. She was now upside down and was trying so hard to get out of his grasp. Trying to use her other leg to hit him, but he held her arms length away. After Rai tried to help Chris and she told him to get the other guy. Rai nodded and went after Zen. Zen gave a little nod and charged for Raimundo. Rai using his wind power shouted.

"Typhoon BOOM!" He then clapped his hands together and tried to blow him away, but Zen was able to stay where he was and then he took out his Kunai daggers and threw them at Raimundo, who got out of the way just in time. Aletia got out her huge sword and ran towards Zen, swiping at him, but every time she swiped he was able to dodge out of the way. Zen was kinda shocked that Aletia was trying to hurt him, but it was true they were both on different sides. So he brought out his Katana and tried to swipe at her, but it did not work, because every time he swiped she turned to air. He growled.

"How can you do that?" He asked, but she just grinned turn back to solid form and kicked him in the face. He then flew and hit the wall were he lay there until they heard a yell. The yell came from Chris as Zalak was holding her over the edge. Her still trying to escape his grasp but failing miserably.

"CHRIS!" Rai and Clay shouted, but before they could do anything, Zalak let her go and she fell down the mountain. She kept falling till she brought out her Gauntlets of Tebigong and shouted their name.

"GAUNTLETS OF TEBIGONG!" The spikes came out and she hit the wall of the mountain, rocks flying as she was able to stop. There was still a ways to go to fall, but she was able to halt that and stay where she was thanks to the Gauntlets of Tebigong. The only problem was she wasn't strong enough to hold that position for long. She tried to grasp the Gauntlets as tight as she could before she lost her strength. She looked up to find Raimundo and Clay looking over the mountain to see if she was okay. Rai then shouted.

"CHRIS!" She then glared. "You okay?"

"DO I LOOK OKAY?" She yelled and then said. "Help! I'm slipping!" She was losing strength fast and couldn't hold on for long. Rai then looked at Clay and said.

"I need to use your rope." Clay then looked a bit confused.

"Why?" Rai then said.

"Well, what I need you to do is use your rope to tie around me and then lower me down the mountain till I get to Chris, and when I have her, you pull us up. Okay?" Clay then nodded and tied the rope around Raimundo and slowly lowered him down the mountain. He then looked at Kimiko and said.

"Make sure they don't interrupt us!" Kimiko nodded and said.

"Keep them busy!" Everyone then looked at Zalak and Zen to make sure they didn't do anything funny. Zalak then went over to his brother and said.

"To much for you?" Zen rubbed his head and then pushed his brother away.

"Get away from me, I have a job to do." He then got up and looked at May, her staff at ready and he charged at her. She jumped and swiped at his feet with her staff, but he jumped and then turned his katana towards her head. She used the staff to block; she then looked up and grinned. She then pointed her hand up and sprayed him with heavy amounts of water. She then ran to Dav who held out his Sabre C24's, his handguns, and then fired shots at Zen and Zalak. Zen saw them come and did a spinning move with his katana and was able to deflect the shots. He then fell to the ground and held himself up with his hand and holding his katana to his side. He then grinned and looked at Dav. Dav groaned and put his Sabre C24's away and then held out his Flame Sabre. Zen then came charging towards Dav and May, Dav then jumped into the air and shouted.

"Inferno Strike!" and then did a forward flip and landed back on the ground, pounding his feet into the ground that pushed up a wall of flame towards Zen and his brother. Zen then ran trying to avoid the attack. While Dav and May fought Zen, Aletia was trying to hit Zalak with her huge sword, but Zalak was able to dodge then kicked Aletia hard in the chest and sent her flying towards the wall. He then went at her and was about to make a final blow when Zen saw that he was trying to kill her, he then ran in front of her to try and protect her from the blow. The only problem was that it didn't stop Zalak from trying to hit her, he kept going with his attack, but when he collided his claws into Zen's abdomen it went straight through him. Zen's eyes widen as Zalak slowly took out his claws to find no blood of his brothers, nor of Aletia's. Zalak looked at Zen and at the girl in shock; but he wasn't the only one in shock. Zen stood in shock as well that his brother tried to kill him to get to Aletia and found himself alive, and… looked like…a projection.

"Wha..?" He said to himself then felt a hand on his shoulder; it was Aletia, her eyes closed and her using her skills to save both her and Zen. She had changed both of them into wind. She then opened her eyes and slowly took her hand off of Zen, which made them solid again. She looked down embarrassed not able to look him in the eyes. She had saved his life; he would somehow have to return the favor. All the while the others were keeping the two brothers busy, Clay was slowing lowering Raimundo down in order to save Chris. When Rai got to where she was he then said.

"Give me your hand!" Chris looked at the gauntlets then at Raimundo's hand. She then looked down at what awaited her at the bottom of the mountain. It was too much of a risk; she did not have any flying shen-gong-wu, the items she had spread out of the group, she just took two back, the Gauntlets of Tebigong, and the Daggers of Teimami. Kimiko had her Wings of the Phoenix, and May still had her Scroll of Casca.

"I can't." She said looking down at the mountain, but her hands were still slipping, her hands were now bleeding. Raimundo gritted his teeth and then used his wind power to help lift her up. It was after all one of the things he learned in training. Levitation. He made a small tornado on the bottom of Chris that levitated her long enough to undo the spikes of her Gauntlets and then grab a hold of her. She was able to put one hand behind his neck and the other on the rope. Chris couldn't help herself but blush; it was weird being so close to Rai. She usually never had anyone so close before. Raimundo then nodded to Clay to pull them up. Clay did so and brought them up pretty fast which made them crash on the ground when coming but thanks to the others for making the brothers busy. Clay was gasping for air, and so were Raimundo and Chris. Raimundo then had a thought.

"Where's Dojo?" Clay then went bug eyed.

"That's right, we could of used him to save Chris!" He bonked his head with his hand. Dojo then came from under Clay's hat and said.

"Sorry, I was napping. What happened?" Clay and Raimundo growled. Chris just dusted herself off. She then looked at Clay and Raimundo and said.

"Thanks.." She then looked down and blushed, she then felt around her pocket and brought out that clip she had from before and put it in her hair so her hair wouldn't get in her face. Rai then saw the clip and was gawking in surprise.

"She… remembers.." He whispered. She then looked at Raimundo after putting the clip in her hair and said.

"Thanks… Raimundo." She said in a whisper then did a little smile and then looked at Zalak who was looking at his brother and Aletia.

"So, this girl is important to you, heh?" He said quite rudely. Zen was still in front of Aletia, guarding her from his brother. "Are you sure you're on the right side, brother?"

"I won't let you kill anyone…" He said glaring at his brother. "No one deserves to die." Zalak just grinned as his brother was showing weakness.

"Everyone deserves to die, especially by my hand!" Zen's eyes bugged.

"Please Zalak!" Chris couldn't take anymore and stepped up.

"If you wanna fight, you fight me." She then looked at Aletia. "Leave Aletia alone." Zalak just looked at Chris with a grin and then replied.

"I guess you really want to die." Chris glared and replied.

"No, I just want you to leave my friends alone." Everyone gasped as Chris said 'Friend'. No one thought Chris thought any of them were her friends. Zalak then grinned.

"Well, this will be fun!" And charged right at her, Chris was at stance, but because she didn't have her sword, she had nothing to give her an advantage. She then used her attack.

"Seismic Punch!" She pounded at the ground, but he dodged and went behind her. He then scratched at her backside, which made her sword sheathe strap brake and fall from her back and made her jacket into taters. Chris then looked at her use to be favorite jacket and took it off. She then glared at Zalak and said.

"I liked that jacket." He then grinned.

"Like that sword?" Chris then growled took out some ninja stars and threw them at Zalak, but he dodged and quickly went up to Chris and grabbed her neck. Chris then grabbed his hand as he was choking her. "How do you like this?" He then started to lift her in the air, making it very difficult to breathe.

"Gasp…ack.." As Chris was starting to lose conciseness, her eyes going glassy as she stared into the eyes of this mad man. Rai couldn't believe what was going on; neither could anyone else for that matter. Chris was being choked to death, Rai tried to help but Chris held her hand out motioning him no. She possibly didn't want them to get hurt. Zen couldn't take anymore of what his brother was doing and tried to get him to release his captive.

"Stop it!" But Zalak just punched him out of the way. "There's more we can do than kill!" Zen said wiping his face. Zalak just grinned and said.

"I agree!" He then held his hand at Chris' abdomen and out of his hand came a small silver orb, of what looked like a ball of energy and then thrust it at her. She then flew from his hand and with the power of the orb made her crash into a pillar, which made her go right through it and then at the wall behind it. She crashed hard taking all the wind out of her. She then fell face down on the ground, she didn't move. Rai and Clay then ran to her and turned her over, blood was coming from her mouth and she wasn't moving.

"We have to leave! NOW!" Clay said and took Dojo from his hat and Dojo went giant. Aletia looked at Chris and felt it was all her fault that Chris got hurt, but she ran to Dojo like the others. Rai went and grabbed Chris who was starting to regain conscious, he put her hand over his shoulder and started to walk towards Dojo, he then looked behind him to see Zen tried to keep his brother from following them. Zalak glared at his brother who was standing in his way.

"Get away from me wolf!" Zen glared.

"Don't do anything stupid. We could of put them in a dungeon, but no, you just had to kill." Zalak then turned around to go back to the entrance then looked behind him and said.

"You just watch yourself, my brother." He then went on into the lair and Zen followed him. Zen then stopped and watched the warriors leave, and saw Aletia turn to look at him. He then followed his brother, but as he was going in he saw Rose by the door grinning ear to ear.

"Not scared of anything, huh?" Her grin turned more evil, Zen just looked at her a bit confused but went on to Chase's throne room.

As soon as the Xiaolin Warriors got to the temple, Clay and Raimundo were helping Chris off of Dojo. Chris was just coming to, groaning and moaning from her injuries. Master Fung came when he saw Dojo come and saw his warriors bruised and hurt. "What happened? And where is Omi?" He said in shock and looking around for Omi. "I'm guessing you couldn't get him to return?" Kimiko was the first to answer him and said rubbing her arm.

"No Master, we couldn't, and we got into a bit of trouble." Master Fung's eyes bugged.

"Trouble?" He then looked at the unconscious Chris. "Oh dear, we're in deeper trouble than I thought." He then waved Clay and Raimundo over to the rooms, as they walked, Master Fung was looking at her condition. Rai and Clay then helped Chris into her room and on her bed. Master Fung then looked her over and saw a huge gash on her arm and what looked like a bit of bone sticking out. Chris was breathing hard, now fully awake and feeling the full amount of pain she was dealing with. "Chris you broke your arm." Master Fung said. Chris then replied.

"Yea, it happens." She said then took in a long breath and laid back down. "So, how do we fix the problem?" Master Fung then looked at Dojo, who had just came in from downsizing and said to the little dragon.

"Bring the Cure of Osirus." Dojo nodded and Rai looked at Master Fung weirdly.

"Why that wu?" Master Fung came closer to Chris' side and checked to see if anything else was broken.

"Because the Cure of Osirus isn't just for Amnesia, it's also for any illness, or broken bones, or.." He said pointing to Chris' bruises and gashes. "Or opened flesh. To bring perfect health." Rai nodded as Dojo came in with the yellow trinket, Master Fung then held it and said. "Cure of Osirus." Chris was then brought back to perfect health, even though her clothes were pretty tattered still. She sat up and flexed her once broken arm and then put it into a fist. She then looked at it, and then frowned. "Anything wrong?" Master Fung said noticing the frown. Chris sighed and said.

"My sword. It was broken in the battle." Master Fung nodded and said.

"You can always get another one. Why don't you go tomorrow and get yourself a new one." Chris nodded, she would be able to get a chance to find another sword, and that made her smile.

"Thank you Master Fung." She said and sat up, but felt a bit dizzy. Master Fung then said.

"Don't over do it, we were able to cure you, but you were knocked around a lot. Your head needs a chance to unwind itself." Chris held her head and then laid back down. Master Fung then nodded to Clay and Raimundo that they could leave. So they went out of the room and walked towards where everyone else was. As they walked Raimundo said.

"I wonder what that rhyme meant." Clay looked at Raimundo and then looked down.

"I dunno, well… let me think." Clay then thought and said.

"Remember where is said. 'On the other side of the Earth where the pilgrims rested.'" Rai nodded and said.

"Yea, but what does that have to do with anything?" Clay then said.

"Hey, dummy it has everything to do with it. The Pilgrims rested in America trying to get away from the English. So it means, the light is in America somewhere." Rai just crossed his arms.

"Well, then smart one, what is this light? Omi wasn't to clear on that." Clay then scratched his chin.

"In the rhyme it said to look for a wolf fighting a tiger."

"So, we need to find a wolf?" Clay looked down at his feet and said.

"I dunno, I guess so." Rai then stopped as they went outside into the sun and then replied.

"So, we're looking for a wolf with the light. I guess an animal can have this light." Clay then said mostly to himself.

"Unless, it's some kind of element." Rai didn't hear him and walked over to the other warriors. Dav just glared at him and walked over to Kimiko's side to not be near him. Raimundo had no clue Dav was upset at him. Kimiko then asked Rai if Chris was going to be okay. Rai nodded and said that she was better, but she needed to rest. Kimiko nodded as Master Fung came out and said.

"It is late now, I think it would be a good idea if everyone recovered from the battle and go to bed." Everyone nodded in agreement and headed for their rooms.

Back at Chase's layer, Chase was sitting on his chair with his head resting on his fist, looking at Omi, who was looking at the ground. "So what happened?" Alliyah stepped forward and replied.

"I found Omi talking to the Xiaolin Warriors. He must be trying to help them." Chase raised an eyebrow to his sister and said.

"Have prove?" Alliyah just looked at her brother in shock and then looked at a grinning Omi.

"Yea! Have prove?" He then went up to Chase's side and said. "I did pledge an Oath after all." Chase then looked at the little warrior at his side.

"You never told them?" Omi looked at him square in the eye.

"I never 'told' them." Chase grinned and then looked at his sister pouting with her arms crossed. She never did like Omi and was trying anything possible to get rid of him, that was possibly why he never believed her. Zen and Zalak came in with Rose by their side. Of course Rose was having a time of her life thinking of ways to scare the pants off of the strong warriors. Chase saw her grinning and said.

"Anything of interest?" She nodded and said.

"I'm gonna scare them." She said with her evil smile. Chase just smiled at her and asked.

"How's that?" She got out the Shadow of Fear and said.

"They're not scared of anything huh? We'll see." Chase nodded and said.

"Zen, Zalak, go with Rose and make sure their dreams turn to nightmares and while you are there, get the Cure of Osirus." He grinned of evil as Rose and the brothers went out to do their scare tactic.

It was night at the Xiaolin Temple and everyone was asleep, or in deep meditation. As Rose and the brothers came toward the sleeping place of the new warriors, they heard light snoring from the dragon Dojo sleeping on his little pillow right beside the door. Rose looked at the brothers with a glare and put her finger to her mouth and said. "Shhhhh." Zalak mocked her as she went forward and he did a weird face, Zen glared at his brother and smacked him in the head. Zalak had a little bit of pain but didn't say anything. Zen looked around and said silently.

"I'm going to find the wu we're looking for. Make sure the warriors know their fear." Rose glared at him for telling her what to do with her ability. She stuck out her tongue at him and then edged on till they came in contact with one of their sleeping adversaries. It just happened to be May, Rose put her finger to her mouth again and made the same jester and she slipped into May's mind, as she left Zalak mocked her again by opening his mouth and mimicking words. Soon, it seemed May was having a nightmare, groaning and moaning in her sleep. Soon Rose came out and grinned, she had opened up May's nightmare and was now able to use it. She then went to the next victim and it was Dav. She did the same thing and it seemed the same thing happened. She then came out of his mind confused. Zalak asked her what was wrong and she replied.

"A lot of people are scared of man-eating spiders." She then went on to her next victim which was Aletia. Did the same thing as she had done the others and slipped out and replied. "She knows our master." Zalak grinned evilly at Aletia; this was the girl Zen was so lovey about. He could just kill her right now, but Rose could since what he was planning and put her arm in front of him. "Don't ruin my moment!" She said in a harsh whisper, which by then Aletia was groaning and moaning and what seemed to be little yelps in her sleep. Rose then nudged him to go to the last warrior before someone woke up from their nightmares. Last one of Chris she seemed to be resting peacefully; until Rose went into her mind and unlocked the nightmare she had been having for years. Chris turned over and started to groan. Rose then started walking towards the door, but Zalak looked at the other three warriors.

"Why not them?" He did a harsh whisper; Rose turned to look at the other remaining warriors and said.

"They did that once before, those warriors concurred their nightmares, it wouldn't work now." She said making him sound like an idiot. Zalak growled as they stepped outside, Zen had gotten the wu they had came for and they soon departed. May then woke up from her nightmare, sweat dripping down her face, she sighed in knowing it was just a dream, but it still scared her. She quietly slipped out of bed and changed into her temple robes, then walked outside. It was a cool night in China; all the stars seemed to be shining. May picked up her pole and walked over to part of the training ground with poles sticking out of the ground. A place to learn balance, one of the skills she was good at. There were Focus, Balance, Chi, Ability, Courage, Fortuity, Skill, and Strength. Chris was of Focus, May is of Balance, Omi was of Chi, Aletia is of Ability, Dav is of Courage, Kimiko was Fortuity, Rai was of Skill, and Clay was of Strength. Each has an ability to contribute. As May jumped onto one of the polls, she tied a blindfold around her eyes. This way she was able to sense where she was to go. She did a kick and went to another pole, she did this with complete balance, and then she felt something near. She jabbed at the unknown aura with her poll and took off her blindfold to find that she had almost stuck her poll clear through Dav's neck. She got wide eyed and took the poll away from his neck and jumped down.

"Oh Dav! You okay?" Dav rubbed his neck and said.

"I'm alive." May gave a bit of a giggle and said.

"Sorry, I didn't know it was you." Dav then sat down on a near-by bench and said.

"I guess you didn't." Dav said looking at the blindfold around her neck. May followed his eyes and took off the blindfold.

"Yea.." She blushed. Dav then looked away then back and said.

"Why are you up?" May then sat down beside him and said.

"I could ask you the same thing." Dav blushed and said.

"I had a nightmare." May blinked and pointed to herself.

"Me too!" Dav then raised his eyebrow and looked at May confused.

"Both of us have a nightmare at the same time." He then crossed his arms. "That's weird." May looked at her feet and replied.

"Yea, I know." She then looked back at Dav and then asked. "So, what was your nightmare?" Dav blushed and looked at his shoes.

"I don't wanna talk about my nightmare." May then blinked and looked away.

"It could help to talk about it." She then smiled. "I'll tell you about my dream. I had a nightmare about man-eating spiders. I never liked Spiders." Dav then looked at May a little shocked and said.

"Me… too." He then looked away. "Are we dreaming the same?" May blushed.

"I dunno." She then looked up to see the sun was coming over the mountains. "Well, we better start making breakfast and doing our chores. Master Fung is possibly up already." Dav then looked at his feet and got up and stretched. He retied his belt and nodded.

"Yea, I'm making eggs."

Back at Chase's layer Zen presented the wu to his master. "As you can see we have brought the wu that you were looking for my master." Chase then went over and grabbed the wu and looked at it with wonder.

"They surely don't guard their temple very well do they?" He did a little laugh and then Jack came in and said.

"What a nice evil laugh." Chase then glared.

"What are you doing here you baboon?" Jack then blinked.

"Is that my new nickname?" Alliyah glared at him and replied.

"No, it's what you are!" Jack then moped a little bit then replied.

"I'm not a baboon!" He then said. "They are big and stupid with a red butt!" Alliyah glared and said.

"Yep, that's what you are." He groaned.

"CHASE!" Chase then look at the two argue and said.

"I can't help it if you are a baboon." Jack just crossed his arms. Then Wuya came in with Josh right at her side.

"There is a new wu that has come out." Chase then groaned.

"I'm not getting anymore wu, all the wu we need are right here." Wuya groaned.

"We need Wu to rule the world!" Chase then said.

"Fine go get your stupid wu, just stop talking to me." Chase said then stopped in his tracks as he remembered something. "Oh, I did promise Zen and Zalak to go get the next Wu, I almost forgot." He then went over to Alliyah and said. "Take the brothers with you and let Rose tag along, we'll see how the nightmares got to the other warriors." Alliyah groaned as she had to take Zalak, but at least she could take her crush and Rose. Zalak went over to Alliyah and said.

"You and me are all the way." Alliyah then took his arm and let it drop.

"Don't touch me." Zalak grinned as she was still playing this game, but glared at Zen, his stupid brother. Now was the perfect time to tell his 'new' master about Zen's little secret. Zalak walked over to Chase and said.

"My master, I need to tell you something about your dear Zen." Chase looked at Zalak and said.

"Do not keep anything from me, what is it?" Zalak grinned as Zen looked down in despair.

"Zen is able to change into a wolf when ever he wishes, He changes at night, but he is able to keep it under control. Unless…" He started making Chase wonder what he was going to say.

"Well, spit it out." Zalak continued.

"Unless, you get the Lunar Locket and make him obey. You see, he has certain feelings for a certain girl at a certain temple. He might betray us." Chase then glared and looked at Zen, then at Zalak. Alliyah then piped in.

"He won't. I'll make sure of it." Chase then looked at his little sister taking defense for Zen.

"Fine. Make sure he doesn't, and go get that wu. Don't waste my time." He then went into his vault that he kept the wu and brought out the Lunar Locket and threw it to Alliyah. "Use it, just in case." Zen looked at the ground and said nothing. Alliyah then started walking towards the door and the others followed to find the wu.

Back at the temple, Dav was making eggs and May was setting the dishes, everything was getting ready for a most delicious meal. Kimiko was the first to wake up in the morning and help them out, Then Clay, and Rai to help make the pancakes. Then the last ones to come up were Chris and Aletia. Chris was rubbing her head and Aletia looked a bit glum. "Hey, sleepy heads." Dav said then noticed Aletia ignore him and just sit down. "You okay?" He asked her taking a seat beside her. She looked down at the table and said.

"I had a nightmare." Dav then smiled at her and replied.

"Join the club." Rai then looked at his mate and said.

"You all had nightmares?" May and Dav nodded. Chris then sat down on the other side of Aletia and replied.

"I had a nightmare too. I hardly slept." Rai then looked at Clay then Kimiko.

"It kinda sounds like you guys were visited by the Shadow of Fear. Did Spicer enter your dreams?" Chris looked at Rai and said.

"Red haired, weird fellow?" Rai nodded and Chris then said. "Nope." Rai scratched his head and looked at Kimiko and Clay who just shrugged. Dojo then came in and said.

"A Shen-Gong-Wu!" Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the little dragon. Everyone gathered around the table at the scroll that showed what wu had come up. "This wu is called the Saiping of Tongues." Kimiko, Clay, and Rai were confused.

"Saiping of Tongues?" Kimiko said. "Don't we already have that wu?" Dojo then said.

"No… not the Tongue of Saiping, that wu is to talk to animals. The Saiping of Tongues enables you to talk in different languages." Kimiko blinked.

"Wow! That's cool! Just to late for me, I had to learn English the hard way." Chris looked at the scroll and said.

"Well, we should get going before they show up." Chris then brought out the Golden Tiger Claws and said. "Unfortunately, I have a sword I have to get. But as soon as I get it, I'll return. Where's the wu going to be at?" Dojo said.

"I think it's in Japan somewhere." Kimiko jumped for joy.

"YES! Good old home town!" Chris nodded and was about to leave when she looked at Aletia and said.

"Aletia, I would like it if you would come with me." Aletia gulped and nodded her okay. Rai then came up and said.

"I'll go too." Chris then held him back and said.

"No." Rai was getting angry.

"Why?" Chris then said.

"You need to find the wu, no offence or anything but I need to talk to Aletia alone." Aletia groaned and sunk in her chair. Chris then swiped the Golden Tiger Claws and Aletia and her went through it. Everyone else watched as they left and was about to walk out the door when Master Fung came in and said that a wu was gone. Rai and the others looked at the vault. Only one wu was missing and that was the Cure of Osirus.

"Well, I guess they didn't come just to scare us." Rai said then looked at the other and said "Well, them." He said pointing to Dav and May. Master Fung then said.

"Be careful warriors, with that wu he will be able to wipe all the Xiaolin Masters easily." Everyone nodded. "Go get that wu. I will guard the temple." Kimiko then looked at the group.

"We also, better find this light fast. Let's go!" She shouted and then they all got on Dojo and went to Japan.

As soon as Chris and Aletia got to their destination Chris started looking around for a new sword. Aletia followed unsure of what she was really doing there. Chris then picked up what looked like a katana with a aqua handle. "You see, it is good to have a sword that has the blade in the handle. It means it's ready for battle, the other kind is just for show." She then swiped the katana around a couple of times and then looked at Aletia. "What do you think?" Aletia just nodded and said.

"It looks good." Chris nodded and said.

"I like this sword, I think I'll get it." She then noticed a pair of daggers that looked like the blade she carried. "Wow, these daggers." She said picking them up. Aletia smiled.

"You would have the set!" Chris smiled.

"I think I'll get these too." Aletia then noticed the daggers at Chris' side.

"But what about the Daggers of Teimami?" Chris looked at them and detached them from her belt.

"Their mostly for the wind element." Aletia then smiled and said.

"Are you going to give them to Raimundo?" Chris shook her head 'no' and said.

"He already has a sword, so you can have the daggers." Aletia took them and smiled at Chris.

"I thought you hated me." Aletia said taking a closer look at the daggers. Chris then put her new katana on her back with a satchel and put her new daggers on her belt and replied.

"I don't hate you, to be honest you're more like me. We have this bond that ties us together. I feel we understand each other better than anyone else." Aletia was confused.

"But what about Raimundo?" Chris blinked them blushed and then wiped it off.

"What about Raimundo?"

"I thought you guys liked each other." Chris was silent. "And what about Clay?"

"Clay's my cousin. Of course I like him but that's not the point." Chris then pulled out the Golden Tiger Claws and said. "Let's get going, we have a tongue to get."

"You mean wu." Chris shrugged and said.

"Same thing." She then used the Golden Tiger Claws and they were gone.

At Japan Dojo was just coming in for a landing, as soon as he did he shrunk down to his little size and went under Clay's hat. Kimiko looked around her hometown smiling ear to ear. "YAY! Back in Tokyo!" She had her hair in black but with pink highlights and wore her Goth gear. Rai then looked at the girl a little weird.

"Why are you wearing that?" She smiled and put her hair into a ponytail.

"Goth is popular in Japan. That and being unique." She slowly walked around Tokyo square; everyone was talking Japanese and talking on their cell phones. Rai looked around and said.

"A lot of people talk on their cell phones here, why? Don't they have a phone at home?" Kimiko glared at Raimundo.

"No they do, but it's cheaper to get a cell phone." Rai just looked at her weirdly then looked at his mate Dav.

"Dude, isn't that weird?" Dav glared at him and stepped away from him.

"Not as weird as you." Rai looked at his buddy weirdly.

"Dude, what's up?" Dav just looked away, and Rai glared. "Fine be that way." He then looked back at Dojo underneath Clay's hat.

"So, where's this wu?" Dojo looked from under the hat and said.

"I dunno, it got moved." Everyone looked in shock at Dojo.

"You mean, you left it out in the open where someone could take it?" Kimiko said getting angry. "Well, where are we supposed to find it?" At that point a while away, Chris and Aletia came through the hole and found the other warriors close by. Aletia smiled and said.

"HEY!" She grinned and ran up to them. Everyone was happy that Chris and Aletia came so that they all could find the wu and not have to worry about short numbers. Chris looked around Japan and said.

"So, where is this wu?" Kimiko looked bummed and said.

"Dojo said that someone already has it." Chris looked shocked then glared at the little dragon.

"Where is it?" She asked the little dragon crossing her arms. Dojo sweated and then said in a soft voice.

"I dunno..ACK!" He hid as Chris growled, he then came out after nothing bad happened to him and said. "I bet if we looked around the city, we'll find this wu." Chris looked at him then at Tokyo.

"Fine, we'll walk around and see if we can find it, okay?" Kimiko then looked around.

"I know where we could go, if someone did take it, we can always look in the most popular places that people would go." Chris then raised her eyebrow.

"Somewhere you would go, or someone else?" Kimiko growled.

"Hey, I'm just trying to help." Kimiko then started walking down one of the streets. "Come one.." She said mentally forgiving Chris for her outburst. "I know this great place for video games that a lot of people go to." So everyone started to follow her, Dav was last in this line. He was tailing his group, glaring at Raimundo as May patted his back for a joke he told. He glared.

'That… Raimundo!' He then stopped and looked at his feet. 'Is he really my friend?' He then started walking to catch up with everyone. Soon everyone had walked for what seemed like hours, everyone was getting tired and hungry. They stopped and looked around, May holding her stomach asked.

"Where can we eat? I'm hungry." Kimiko then said after catching her breath.

"I know a great place." They followed her to a fast food place where they sold burgers and fries. Chris looked at all these unhealthy foods and groaned.

"These aren't good for us. We need healthy foods to keep us fit, not make us gain more weight and keep us heavy." Kimiko then looked behind her and said.

"Yea, but it's fast." Chris groaned.

"Yea, but it doesn't always mean good." Kimiko then up to the counter and looked at the menu, everything was in Japanese and some of it had subtitles in English. Everyone looked at the menu and told Kimiko what they wanted, because none of them spoke Japanese cept for Kimiko. Kimiko then told the guy what they wanted, she then looked at Chris who still didn't make a decision yet.

"Nani Daisuka?" Kimiko said accidentally saying it in Japanese. "I mean.." Chris then cut her off and said.

"I know what you said." She then looked at the menu and then looked at the guy at the counter and told the guy in Japanese what she wanted. Everyone was speechless. Kimiko then said.

"I didn't know you spoke Japanese." Chris then smiled and blushed a little.

"I did live here at one point." Kimiko nodded.

"Right! Of course you know Japanese." Everyone sat down and ate till they were full. Rai then put his head on his fist and started sipping the remaining amount of soda he had left till there was no more. He then looked at everyone and said.

"So, now what? We've been looking for a long time, where is this wu?" All of a sudden Dojo sprang from Clay's hat and started having convulsions.

"It's close!" He said twitching. Chris then got up and said.

"'Bout time." And they started following Clay through the door and towards what looked like a dark building with tons of none-other than Japanese Goths. Kimiko then whispered to Raimundo and said.

"Told you they were popular." Rai just glared at Kimiko as they stared at the building, Chris then spoke up.

"So the wu's in there?" Dojo nodded and said.

"Yea, but I dunno what it's doing in there." Rai then stepped up to the building and said.

"Well, let's go get that wu." He then went up to the door, where a huge Japanese man stood in his way. "Um… excuse me!"

"Kaitu so decusoten ne?" Rai looked confused.

"What?" Kimiko then stepped up and said.

"He said. 'What do you think you're going, heh?'" She then looked at the door and the sign in Japanese. "This is a Goth Club. We can't enter unless we were invited and we have to wear Goth attire." Rai looked at Kimiko confused.

"Goth attire? Aww man, they look weird. Like dead mimes." Kimiko then punched Raimundo.

"We have to or we wont get in." Clay and the others went bug eyed. Clay took off his hat and said.

"Me as a Goth, that's a scary thought." Chris then crossed her arms.

"AS long as I don't wear a dress." She said. Kimiko looked around and said.

"Let's go visit my dad, he could help us." Everyone nodded and Chris replied.

"I hope the Wu will still be here." She said glaring at Dojo. "Why don't you stay here, and make sure it doesn't go anywhere." Kimiko nodded.

"Yea, we still have that chip installed in you to find you. We'll be back soon, okay?" Dojo was put in a nearby plant that hid him well, it made him look like a decoration. He crossed his arms as the warriors left and he said.

"I still would rather watch that scroll!" He said then went into a pose to look like part of the plant. Kimiko and the others arrived at her fathers place, there Kimiko hugged her father and said.

"Daddy, we need to get into a certain club, Shen-Gong-Wu business and the only way to get in is we need an invite and we need Goth attire." Kimiko's dad nodded and placed a phone call for both the clothes and the tickets to attend. Kimiko kissed her father as she told her friends to pick out clothes for the club. After awhile, May was done with her selection and she had picked out a really cute Goth dress with tons of black-laced ribbons on it. She had black and white striped stockings and black clog boots. Dav found a black pair of pants with a chain attached to his pants and to a wallet that came with it. He wore a black button up shirt, with a black shirt under it. Aletia wore a black tank with a silver star on it and black pants She also wore black wrist warmers. Raimundo wore a plain black shirt and pants with a black cap on his head and black wrist warmers. Clay was wearing completely black attire and was feeling so uncomfortable.

"I don't feel right! I miss my hat." Kimiko hugged him and said.

"It will be over soon, I promise." Chris was the last to come out and she said putting a dark red cap on her head.

"I could get use to this." She was wearing a dark red t-shirt that had in black letters 'PUNK' and wore black cut-off pants that had two ribbons that looked like an 'X' that hung down and attached to the legs. She had black shoes and she wore black-chained leather wrist warmers. "I like this a lot." As soon as everyone was decked out in their Goth gear, they headed back to the club were Dojo was still waiting. He came flying out at them and yelled.

"Guess how long I've been waiting!" Kimiko petted the little dragon and said.

"I know, I know. But it took us some time." She brought out her invites and said. "We got the invites and look like goths." Dojo looked at Clay who looked like he was just humiliated.

"Clay? Is that you? You look weird." Not all of them were in make-ups, hardly any. "How come you aren't wearing makeup." Rai then said.

"I don't wanna look like a dead mime!" Kimiko then stepped on his foot, which made Rai's face go red, because he was mad and his foot hurt. "OW! Kimiko!" She then looked back at him and said.

"That's why I did it." She then went up to the door and handed the huge Japanese man their invites. "Arigato." She then bowed at him and started to walk in when the Japanese man then held out his arm to her and told her that all weapons were to be confiscated while in the club. Everyone agreed and left their weapons at the door. Kimiko then went in and everyone else followed her. As they walked in it was pitch black with strobe lights hitting them, hard rock music filled the air. They also smelled something like smoke; I guess people could smoke in there. May said to anyone.

"I don't think kids should be here. I mean, it just gives me a bad aura." Kimiko agreed.

"We have to stay close, we can't get separated." She then looked around. "Where did Chris go?" Chris had already disappeared from them. Rai then looked around.

"That girl likes to get lost." He then said. "I'll go find her, you guys look for the Wu." He then started walking past all the people at the bar. He looked as one almost puked on him. "Whoa." He then looked ahead trying not to smell that horrible smell. 'Remind me never to drink.' He kept walking till he found Chris being held by what seemed like a drunk American, and it looked like she was getting kinda annoyed with this man. Rai then walked up to hear.

"Hey baby, you're cute. Are you Japanese?" Chris looked like she was going to punch him, and then Rai slipped in and held her arm.

"Hey, I've been looking for you." The man looked at Raimundo and said.

"Are you her boyfriend?" Rai smiled and nodded.

"Yea, she's mine, back off." Chris looked at him like she was going to kill him, Rai then said in a whisper. "Play along." Chris then smiled a fake grin and said.

"Yea, he's my boyfriend." She said hugging him, Rai then moved her away from the man. She then tore from him and said. "I can take care of myself, thank you!" Rai then said.

"I wasn't protecting you, I was protecting him from you." Chris glared and kept walking looking around for something, Rai was right by her side. "Come on I do one thing, and you get mad at me." As they walked by the women's bathroom Chris shoved Rai into it, making him crash into things. All that could be heard was girls screaming. Rai came out with him trying to put his hat back on and toilet paper hanging off his shoe. "Why did you do that!" Chris then smiled and said.

"I thought it was fun." She then looked around and saw something that she never really wanted to see. In between the crowds there was a little Japanese girl staring at her, her hair all raggedy and her clothes torn. In ways her skin looked a bit green and her hair seemed to be in her face. Chris' eyes got big, it couldn't be. The girl started to walk to her, Chris felt her hair stand on end. "No…" She said and started backing up. Rai was in her way as she backed up and bumped into him. She didn't look at Rai but at the girl coming closer to her.

"Are you alright?" He asked her, but she wouldn't reply. He then looked where she was looking and saw the girl coming at her. "What the?" He said, but then the little girl did a hiss and ran for them. Chris screamed and ran away, Rai right behind her. "What is that?" He yelled from behind her.

"My nightmare!" She screamed trying to move people out of her way. Rai right behind her, they stopped when they couldn't see it anymore.

"Your nightmare?" Chris gasped for air and nodded.

"When I was walking home with groceries one day back to the temple, I saw the preview for this movie, called the Ring on the big screen, and ever since then I always had a nightmare about it. Plus it's a ghost." Rai then looked at her weirdly.

"A ghost? Why are you afraid of ghost?" Chris said.

"Because they can hurt you, but you can't hurt them." Rai put his arms on her shoulder and said.

"There are no such things as ghosts." Chris then said.

"Tell that to my ghost." She said looking around, and then someone came on the speaker. It was an American man that waved at everyone and then held an object to his mouth that made it sound like he was speaking Japanese.

"Moshi Moshi, Nani desu? Taijoho meisutuine kotoniturotono disutono tesu. Neturo koto mesuta, ja? Minna-san kotto notrooto mesajestu The Microtos!" Rai then looked at Chris and asked.

"What did he say?" Chris looked at him and said.

"He said. 'Hello, how are you this evening? I would like to thank you all for joining us tonight. How is everything, heh? Ladies and Gentlemen I would proudly present The Microtos.' Something like that." Chris said as the band 'The Microtos' started to play. "But that man, can't speak Japanese, he has the Saiping of Tongues." Rai looked as the man went off stage to get a drink then headed towards the back. Rai then looked at Chris and said.

"Let's get it, but let's be careful." Chris nodded; they both knew that somewhere was the enemy.

Kimiko looked as the announcement went on for The Microtos to play, Kimiko then said. "The Saiping of Tongues!" She then pointed at the man. "We have to get him!" Everyone nodded and followed Kimiko to the backstage where they found Chris and Raimundo already there looking around. "There you are! I thought we lost you!" Kimiko said happy to see Rai and Chris. Chris then did finger jesters towards the guy who had the wu. Kimiko nodded and then went up to the man with the wu. "Moshi!" She said in Japanese, to see if he would use the wu. The man looked a little frazzled, but was able to reply a 'Moshi' and walk away. "Nani deska? Daijobu?" The man looked a bit confused and brought out the wu and said.

"Nani?" Kimiko smiled and said in English.

"I hope you don't mind, but I need that. It belongs to me." She said holding her hand out for the wu; the man put it back in his pocket and said.

"I found it, fare and square! It's mine!" Chris then came to where Kimiko was and said.

"Now, I'm not as nice, give me the object. NOW!" Holding her fist to his head. "I'll give you till three." She glared as the man sweated. "1." She said. Kimiko then looked at Chris' method to be a bit extreme.

"You don't have to do that!"

"2." She said looking at Kimiko then out of nowhere Zen jumped into the air and while upside down was able to pilfer the pocket of the man and grab the wu. Zen bowed and tapped his head with the wu.

"Thanks!" He said and ran off. Chris then threw the man onto the ground and ran after him. Everyone else followed her till they reached the roof. There was Zalak, Zen, Alliyah, and Rose there. Zalak grinned when he saw them and said.

"Hey there? Still sore?" Chris groaned, of course she wouldn't have her weapons or any of her wu it was all confiscated. She let her stance down and glared at them. "Well, better be going. See you next wu!" Chris growled as they left. Kimiko then replied.

"Great, now they have both wu's and we can't get them back." Chris looked at her confused.

"What?" Rai then spoke up.

"We forgot to tell you that when they came to make you guys have nightmares, someone stole the Cure of Osirus." Chris groaned, now what was she going to do. She then took the rhyme out of her pocket and looked it over.

"I guess then we have to find this light." She read over the poem and said. "Any clues?" Clay said.

"It has to be in America, other than that no clue." Chris then looked again at the rhyme.

"Well, it's in this period, and it says it's in one of the largest cities of that nation." Clay then thought.

"Houston, Los Angeles, and New York." Kimiko shouted.

"It might be Los Angeles!" Chris then replied the rhyme.

"The largest city in that nation, you will find many stations. In the vast plains, where there are no trains." She said looking it over. "Stations mean trains, but New York has no trains, just subways." Rai then said.

"Maybe that's what he meant." Aletia then took the piece of paper.

"Maybe it's in the country of New York. Not the city itself." Chris then crossed her arms and they slowly started walking down towards the front door.

"It's a possibility. I guess we'll go there." Chris said getting her weapons back and their wu.

"But what's the light?" Dav asked. Clay looked at him and said.

"Some kind of wolf has it." Dav looked confused.

"An animal would have the light?" Clay then said.

"It might be a medifore." He said scratching his head. "It might mean someone with the heart of a wolf, or something like that." Dav just shrugged.

"It makes no since!" Chris then got out the Golden Tiger Claws and said.

"We won't know till we try." She swiped them and said. "Let's go." Everyone went into the hole and disappeared.

Back at Chase's layer, he looked at his team and grinned when Rose showed him the fears of the warriors. She then giggled at the thought she had about the one she had scared. "These are what they are scared of, silly mortals." He then looked at the one that was Aletia's. "So, she's still having nightmares about that. I say, we try and make her realize her fear." Rose giggled and said.

"Are we going to take her so I can play with her?" Chase patted her head and he said smiling.

"If that is what you wish." He then looked at Zen. "If you don't mind, Zen." Zen looked down and replied.

"It doesn't my master." Zalak came from behind his brother and patted him on the back, quite hard and said.

"Don't worry, I'll treat her right!" He said showing his bloodied teeth, then made his hand into a fist, that made all his knuckles crack. "Like bone." He said in a whisper. Zen groaned and looked at Zalak walk over to Alliyah and tried to put an arm around her neck. He then smelled her and he said. "You smell nice." She then shoved his arm away from her and said.

"Back off." He grinned as she walked off. Wuya came in with Josh by her side and said.

"Josh has something he would like to share." Josh came and bent his knee to his master then looked at Chase.

"I know of something others do not." Chase then glared and asked him to continue.

"And that is?" He said getting impatient.

"I have a sister, who I find most annoying, but everyone at my village loves her over me. She is told to be special." He then said. "I wish to go and kill her, now that I have the strength to do it." Chase looked at Josh and smiled.

"If that is what you wish, then you may go. In order for you to fully kill your enemy, I will allow Zalak and Rose to go with you." He then turned to go into his room. "They will help you anyway they can." Zalak then popped his knuckles and said.

"Yes! Real fun!" He then turned to his brother and said. "Enjoy, wolf!" Zen did not like the thought of an innocent to be killed, but what was he to do, he turned around and walked the other way. As Josh, Zalak, and Rose went off to find Josh's sister.

The warriors arrived at New York on the outskirts of the city they had all changed from their Goth attire to their normal outfits, except for Chris who rather liked the attire. Clay was happy to have his regular cloths back on.

"It's good to have my hat back." Kimiko then looked at Chris as she lowered her cap over her eyes. The sun was just too powerful in New York, she didn't know why, but she guessed the pollution in New York made it worse. Kimiko looked at Chris and asked.

"So, where are we to look?" Chris looked at the rhyme and said.

"It basically says to look in the country but other than that, I'm confused." Aletia took the piece of paper and said.

"It says something about a brother." She said but everyone was still confused.

"Who's the brother?" Aletia looked again at the rhyme and said.

"One is without the other. Maybe that means, one is missing, but the other doesn't want to be found." Kimiko then said.

"But which ones the brother?" Aletia then said.

"Maybe the one that is missing." Dav then replied.

"Does this mean it's a person, or is it a wolf?" He then thought. "Who's the Tiger?" Everyone was just getting more and more confused. Then Dojo sensed something.

"Hey, I sense a Shen-Gong-Wu." Dojo said. "It's pretty close, let's go see what it is." Kimiko then got confused.

"Is it a wu we need to get or is someone using it?" Dojo then said.

"There are two wu's and someone, no two people are using it. I dunno what they are, but they're that way." He pointed into a direction and the warriors followed.

Jillian had just got done with looking over her e-mail for that morning and looked at her television. She went over to it and turned it on. Nothing seemed to be on, so she went to where her mother was and she said. "Mom, there's nothing really to do." Jillian's mom just smiled at her daughter as she was cleaning up from breakfast and was already starting lunch.

"Well, could you go outside and see if you can get some fresh flowers for your mother's table. I want something that will make it not so gloomy in here. Jillian nodded and said.

"Okay, I will." She then walked over to the door and put her shoes on, she put her precious position in her pocket and opened the door and went outside. The only place she knew that had very pretty flowers, that wasn't in another neighbors yard was in the fields close to the woods. She walked over to that place and started to pick flowers for her mother, she got some hair in her face so she brought out a ribbon and went to tie her hair when she felt something by her neck. She quickly turned around to find. "Josh?" Josh just glared at her. "Josh! Your back!" She hugged him. "I was so worried!" He then pushed her off of him. " Hey! Why did you do that?" She then looked like she was going to cry as he came closer. "What's wrong? What are you doing?" He then grabbed her by the neck and held her in the air. "Brother….. w..why?" She said trying to grab him from doing it. She then was able to kick him in the face to drop her. "Why did you do that?" She said after falling to the ground. "Can't you see you were hurting me?" Josh never said a word, but Zalak was able to answer her questions.

"He wants you dead, girlie." Jillian looked at Zalak as he came charging at her, she was able to bend backwards to dodge his attack, he then went back and she was able to jump into the air and do a split to dodge his attack again. "What the?" Jill looked at him angrily and said.

"I'm not just a ordinary girl!" She then held up her precious item. "Wolf's HEART!" She then changed into a silver wolf and was attacking Zalak, biting his arm, Josh then went over to her and kicked her wolf form in the gut to get her off of Zalak. Josh then used his special Wu.

"Tiger's HEART!" He turned himself into a golden Tiger, there the Wolf and the Tiger were starting to fight with each other and that's when the warriors came and found them. Aletia's eyes went bugged.

"The Wolf, and the Tiger." Dav then said.

"Yea, but they're gold and silver." Kimiko then said.

"The Wolf is the light! We have to help it!" Everyone nodded and went to help. Chris ran to the Tiger and kicked it away from the wolf, making the tiger go back to human form. Chris then said silently.

"The brother… The wolf was without the other.." Chris then looked at the wolf who changed back into a girl. "The light." The girl went to the group that helped her but said.

"Don't hurt him, he's my brother." She said trying to keep Chris away from her brother. Chris looked at the girl a bit confused.

"But he's trying to kill you." Jillian then said.

"I know but I still love him." Chris was getting annoyed with the whole matter, she moved Jillian to the side and brought out her sword to fight Zalak, but before she could do that, Rose went up in front of her and said.

"How about a scare tactic?" Chris was confused until Rose brought out the Shadow of Fear. "Shadow of Fear!" And soon the ghost that was at the club came before Chris, her hissing and coming closer. Chris gasped and fell to the ground then trying to get away from the creature.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooo, STAY BACK!" Chris said now starting to cry. Zalak was laughing at her for being scared of what looked like a little Japanese girl. Chris then got up and started to run. Over to where Dav and May were, they saw their nightmare. It was a gigantic man-eating spider. May screamed and couldn't move, even though Dav was scared out of his mined he put himself in front of May for her not to get hurt. Then when the spider was about ready to attack, Dav grabbed May and jumped out of the way. He then got up and helped May and they started to run. Aletia stayed where she was, she was engulfed with her nightmare. She went down on her knees and held her head, screaming.

"No… NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO." Her eyes watering up then 'SMACK.' She flew from where she was and hit the ground rolling, she was unconscious. Zalak licked his lips and put her in his arms. He then turned to Rose who was still playing and laughing with her victims, he told her it was time to go. Josh was angry; he still didn't get a chance to kill his sister.

"Later, we have something better." Josh groaned and went to Zalak's side; Rose stopped what she was doing and went over to them. The nightmares were gone, but as they left Chris ran after them trying to get Aletia back. It was no use, they were already gone, and they had Aletia. Chris then got onto her knees and screamed.

"ALETIA!"

Smurf-Chan: Sorry it took so long to finish this chapter, but I hope it was well worth the wait. Anyway, I wanna say happy birthday to Dav. I hope you get a big slice of cake. Mmmmm cake. Well, enjoy and the next chapter is: The Turning of the Fire.
