Ah yes Raimundo super angst kicks in. Surprised I chose the song My Humps? I was listening to that while I was writing XD.
Okay, the ending is near. Wonder what Sheng Gong Wu they wagered? You'll see. Oh btw, I suck at action sequences so don't expect a lot of action.
Oh, also, the two children per family law thing for China, I'm sorry if it is no longer a law -- I'm not really good at this…And I forgot Kimiko's last name XD so it's Toho. If not, someone tell me.

I stared at my hands. They were covered by the moon light. I moved a finger and watched it glide up and down. I flipped my hand down so I could sit up. I stared outside of the cave and watched the wind heavily blow against the trees. I could hear the ocean roaring against the stones…strange…the ocean was miles away from this area.
I stood and walked out. The wind shoved me, but I kept my ground. I pulled my hair away from my face and walked forward. The tall grass slapped my legs and the trees scolded me as I walked by. I ignored it.
I didn't know where I was going. My legs carried me along. Then, I saw the bald boy. He looked really cool.
He was floating.
I was standing.
He was graceful.
I fell on my arm and cried out in pain.
The wind dropped. The grass stopped slapping me and the tree stopped scolding me. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked up. The boy stared at me with kind eyes, "Hi…"
I blinked, "Hi…" I replied.
He helped me up, "Can you…show me your powers?"
I blinked again, "Powers…?"
"Master said that you have water powers…" he shyly scratched the back of his yellow head, "Can you show me?"
I stared at the ground, "I don't know how…but I'll try." I was ten.
I thought of water, and the sky growled. The sky filled with water so heavy that it cried. The blast of rain his my head…and I was in peace.
(XS)
"Kimiko, come." her father reached out his hand, "It's time to go."
Kimiko bowed in front of the tomb and grabbed his hand, "Papa, why did they bury mama?" she watched his freeze. His legs continued to move in a steady rhythm, "Papa, where is mama? Why is mama down in the dirt?" her legs were quick.
He stopped, turned, and hugged his daughter tight, "My little girl…" he sobbed, "Mama is going away, but you'll see her some day…"
Kimiko gulped, "Papa, can I go see Keiko-chan?"
"In a minute…just…let's stay here for a little longer."
Kimiko buried her face into his shoulder, and cried.
(XS)
The baby cooed in her arms, "My dear boy, what shall we do today!" she cuddled him close to her chest, right next to her heart, "Oh…you are so tiny."
"Stop! Halt!"
She spun and gasped and ran. They weren't going to get her baby.
"There, that's the woman!"
"Run children!" her other children ran.
She broke the law, she had a third child.
(XS)
"Jesse! Grab my hand!" he reached out his hand towards the girl.
Jesse looked up with tired scared eyes, "Clay…!" she reached.
She fell.
He failed.
"JESSE?"
(XS)
"Mamãe…" the feeling, it won't leave.
'I love you.'
'I hate you.'
"Raimundo, come here."
'Hug me.'
'Don't touch me.'
Raimundo fell on his knees and crawled his way towards her.
'Keep going.'
'Stop…'
'Stop!'
'STOP!'
Raimundo froze…and slapped away the hands that were reaching towards him. He looked up and laughed, "You really think…that I'll fall for that same trick?" he stood up laughing, "Please…I've grown from that idiotic past."
The light dispersed showering the air with stars. It slowly turned back to darkness.
Raimundo moved, forward or backwards, maybe to the side, he was moving somewhere. There was no light…not yet.
(XS)
End of round two
Xia huffed as sweat dripped from her chin, "Dashi…how…are you?"
Dashi stood straight and tall, "We need to end this fast…"
She smirked, "Don't worry, we'll win this round…she never made it as far as we had…" she sighed and stood straight. The special tingling inside her came back, "Welcome back to being a Grand Master…Dashi."
(XS)
"Little dude!" he cried at the darkness, "Just…come out! I'm confused…I need you!"
The boy appeared in a flash. Only the toy in his hand was in vision, "I promised I wouldn't run…" he dropped the toy and the room illuminated. The boy looked up with bruises and cuts all over his face.
Raimundo gasped.
"Please forgive my appearance." he coughed, "I've…been through a lot."
"Who are you?"
Raimundo walked up to the boy and knelt down to his eye level. He dug into his pocket to bring out a handkerchief. He stared to wipe the boy's face, "Geesh, you kids are so weak."
The little boy slapped away Raimundo's hands, "You act like your own mother."
Raimundo dropped the handkerchief, "What…?"
He smiles.
The darkness illuminates and a scene of spring appears in front of Raimundo. The sky was bright blue with the right amount of clouds. The trees rustled as a strong wind blew. The grass slapped Raimundo's feet and the birds whistled their tale.
"Mamae!" a three year old Raimundo races past Raimundo.
A young woman appears, here back to Raimundo, and turns her head. She smiles and bends down to reach her son.
The ground splits.
(XS)
Xia grunted as she slammed against the wall, "If I become paralyzed you're paying the medical bills!"
Dashi laughed, "I'm dead, and I don't have money!"
Xia grinned, "But I have the money in that vault…"
Dashi gulped, "Get up!"
Wuya seethed, "You two…you two always made my life miserable!" she thrust her arms in the sky.
Kimiko breathed in, "What is she doing?"
A large bonfire emerged.
"I suggest she's trying to cook us."
Omi stood on the rocks, "Do you think they will be alright?"
Clay nodded, "They're Grand Masters, and they should be fine."
"I'm more worried about Raimundo."
(XS)
He was so handsome. It's hard to believe who he really was.
He lived a happy normal life.
There was nothing wrong.
He just hated the love, and ran away.
I wanted that love, and he threw his away.
He looked down at me, "Xia, what's wrong?"
I was twelve.
I flushed and shook my head, "Ah…nothing."
He was fourteen.
He smiled and bent down to my eye level, "It's good to tell others how you feel."
I could feel my face burn, "It's…really nothing!" I hear the bell, "OH! Master is calling us!"
I run up the hill meeting up with the others, "Hey! Dashi, don't take all the food!"
Wuya hit Dashi with her stick, "Leave some!"
Lee came up behind me. I breathed. He smiled.
It was night.
I was thirteen.
Wuya was sleeping, but the moon was bright. I stayed awake.
I walked outside and watched the half moon illuminate.
I closed my eyes and pretended to be floating.
I wanted the strong wind.
I was sad Dashi was sleeping.
The ground around me turned into the rainbow as flowers flourished them.
I spun around to find Lee walking towards me, and dragging his feet.
My face started burning. The moon gave him a mysterious look.
"What are you doing up so late?" he asked me gently.
I snorted, "I could ask you the same thing."
He laughed, "Ah, I see."
We fell silent.
I coughed, "Well, I better be getting to bed…" I flatten the cloth on my stomach, "See you in the morning…" I started to walk.
Lee stopped me, and kissed me on my forehead.
(XS)
"Mommy says I can't play with kids who don't have a Mommy!" the little girl laughed at Kimiko and ran away.
Kimiko paused, "But…I do have a Mommy!" she cried, "She's just away for now! She had to go see what the ground looked like." a pair of hands pushed her to the ground.
"That's stupid, if a person is buried then that person dead!" the little boy sneered at Kimiko.
"No, you're wrong!"
"You're stupid!"
"You don't have a Mommy!"
"Stop talking, I have a Mommy!"
The bell rang and everyone ran in.
Kimiko stood, and walked away. Far away.
"Yoko, and Kimiko!" no one answered, "Had anyone seen Kimiko Toho?" no one answered, "Oh dear, Kagura, call the police."
Kimiko sat in the sand box and watched the older kids play.
"Mama, hurry, I don't want to miss the train!" a small girl jumped up and down her Mother, "Alright, I found it," she said, "Let's go!"
Kimiko paused, 'I want my Mommy.' she dropped her head and let the hat fall off. She started to cry. The sand castle she was building was overcome by rain, "Mama…' she sobbed into herself and let the sand ruin her pigtails.
"Kimiko-chan!" Kimiko sat up. She saw her father panting and sweat dripping down his chin, "What are you doing here? The police called me and said that you were missing!"
Kimiko cried, "Papa!" she ran to her father's arms, "Papa, where's mama? I want to see Mama and tell everyone that it's not true! Mama is alive, Mama is alive!"
He didn't reply.
Kimiko cried harder.
It was an accident.
She was with someone in the car. She was driving.
The person said something passed in front of them. She was blinded suddenly and swerved out of control. They hit a tree, and strangely, only the side where the driver was, was hit.
An eye doctor checked her eyes. She wasn't blinded by a light.
An autopsy was made.
She had brain damage to the area where sight was regulated.
Something mysterious happened.
(XS)
"Jesse!" Clay laughed playfully, "Come on!" he panted as he ran, the wind blowing against his hair. He held his hat under his arm.
A small girl chased after him, "Clay, wait!" she tripped over a rock, "Ow!"
Clay stopped and ran back, "Oh you are as clumsy as Auntie on her heels." he helped her up.
"My…my elbow!"
Clay sighed and dug in his pocket. He brought out a band-aid. He peeled back the paper covering the band-aid, pulled back the two flaps covering the important part of the band-aid. Then he stuck it right on the wound sticky side down.
"There…"
Jesse looked at her band-aid, "Thank you Clay!"
Together, they ran back.
"DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!"
"WELL THEN DON'T YELL AT ME!"
"Mommy?" Jesse whispered.
Clay shushed her.
"That's IT! I have had it to HERE with you! I want a divorce!"
It felt like time stopped completely.
"What's…divorce?" Jesse walked out in front of her parents.
The mother smiled and bent down, "Jesse, we're going to take a long trip." she smiled at Clay, "You stay here."
The father looked away.
Clay stared at his sister's back, and ran off.
"CLAY!" his father cried.
Clay ran away and farther away from that strange place. He jumped over small cactus and dodged giant rocks. He tripped on a rock and fell on his stomach, "Damn…" he cursed and sat. He stared at the setting sun.
"Clay!" he turned his head to find his little sister running after him. She suddenly disappeared.
"Jesse!" he ran over to where he saw his sister disappear and nearly fell. In front of him was a giant ditch…why didn't he see this?
"Clay, help me!" he spotted his little sister hanging onto a small root.
Clay got on his stomach and reached out his arm, 'Maybe…if she was…' he shook the thought away.
He reached, and failed.
She wasn't moving.
(XS)
The woman pressed her forehead on the polished wood. She held out the baby in her arms, ignoring the strains.
Master Fung sat in front of her, and watch her sob.
"I…this is the only hope for Omi." she sobbed, "My other children are gone, dead, he is my only baby. Please…just…please take him. I want him to grow up…" her voice wavered.
Master Fung breathed in, and sighed. He stood and took the baby in his arms, "Leave, and never come back until I come to get you."
She stood, tears staining the wood, bowed, and left forever.
(XS)
Raimundo fell to his knees, "I DON'T WANT TO SEE THIS! LEAVE ME ALONE!"
"Bon fire!"
"Oh."
"Shit."
The ground was scorched.
Wuya smiled manically, "Ha…no longer will you torment me!"
Steam.
"You know, we don't die." Xia laughed and came out, giant water shields around her arms, "This is idiotic. You never came to our level, and you will NEVER make it to our level!" she threw her arms down. The water was suspended in air, "Let's play DARTS!" the water was pointed towards Wuya and shot through the air.
Wuya dodged it, and dodged them. All she could do was dodge.
"After you." Xia bowed slightly.
Dashi smirked, "Wind."
Darkness.
"CONGRADULATIONS DASHI! YOU WON!"
(XS)
Everything was back to normal.
Omi gaped, "Grand…Master….Dashi!" and fainted.
Dashi smiled nervously and leaned towards Xia, "Is he…?"
Xia nodded.
Dashi sighed, "Well, I guess living again was pretty fun." he smiled, "Gotta go, I hopefully will see you?"
Xia blinked, and smiled back, "Yeah, hopefully." she waved a bit. She hid the Sheng Gong Wus behind her back.
Raimundo's body fell backwards and landed on Omi.
"GET THIS HEAVY LOAD OFF ME!"
(XS)
"Let me go!" Raimundo cried. He was in a ditch, "I hate this, let me go!" he slammed the dirt and fell on his knees, "I want to go home!"
"You do?" Raimundo fell backwards and spun his head around, "I thought you hated your life." the boy hugged his bear and kissed its head.
"It's not true!" he cried, "I want to go back. I want to see naïve Omi and stupid Clay…and Kimiko…" he gripped his hands, "I want to see Kimiko!"
The boy smiled, "Well, what do you think Ninja Fred?" he held the toy close to his ear, "Ninja Fred says go. On one condition."
"What?"
"Forget it all."
A blue warm light, the sound of birds, and a familiar face…
(XS)
"Raimundo!" Kimiko cried with joy.
Clay got closer to Raimundo's face, "He is alive!"
Xia smiled and fingered that certain Wu.
Raimundo groaned and rubbed his eyes, "I feel like I was beaten up a billion times…" he looked up at Kimiko and smiled, "Ah…but it'll go away."
Kimiko wiped away tears and smiled back, "Welcome back Rai." she hugged him.
Xia whistled the tune of their wedding; "Here comes the bride…" she smiled as they flew away from each other.
Clay fingered his hat, "While we're young…"
"But we are young!" Omi argued.
"It's an expression."
"But it makes no-"
"Shut up."
Omi bowed his head and pouted crossing his arms.
"So what was the inside like."
Raimundo opened his mouth…and then closed it. Nothing. Everything was…blank.
They all waited in silence.
"YOU WRECHES!"
They all gasped, their hearts beating rapidly.
Wuya stood from the rubble, "Do you really think I am defeated?" she grinned, "I haven't been pulled in yet, and Dashi is the only one!"
Xia blinked, and bent down. She picked up a stone…
"Like this." a bright light, "And then it turns into…"
"A box is very simple to make. If you became a grand master it would be easy." she smirked as the stone turned into the cursed box.
Wuya winced and turned to run.
Xia threw it right behind Wuya and it threw its flaps open.
"NO! NO, PLEASE NO!" she disappeared.
Everyone blinked.
Xia smiled and turned towards the Xiaolin dragons, "Ah…I guess this would be good-bye."
"What…"
"You all can't ever experience this." Xia sighed and swung her arm from behind her back to in front of her, "Maybe…we'll meet again."
"Wait-"
"Sands of time."
(XS)
"Papa, why don't I have a mommy?"
He smiled warmly, "Mommy is in America, you do have a mommy. She's just busy right now trying to get the Americans to invest in our games."
Kimiko smiled, "When mommy comes back will she give me a souvenir?"
He nodded.
"Kimiko-chan."
"Mama!"
(XS)
"Clay, this is your new sister," he pushed him towards her, "Say hello."
"Hi Jesse."
She looked up at him with hate, "I hate you."
"JESSE!"
(XS)
"Ah…thank you Master Fung, I'm sorry for the burden. I'm just swamped with everything and…I need a more stable life before I can take care of Omi."
He nodded holding the yellow baby in his arms, "Come back anytime you can."
She smiled and bowed, "My thanks will never end."
"Ah…"
(XS)
"Raimundo," his mother slapped her knee, "Come here."
Raimundo hugged Ninja Fred and ran to his mother, "Mamae, where's daddy?"
She smiled, "Daddy is in the circus. He's getting a job as a tight rope walker." she pulled Raimundo onto her lap.
"Eh…mamãe, I wanna join the circus!"
(XS)
Xia sat on the mountain peak and spotted 3 dots walk towards each other, "Huh…they met each other. I went too far back." she kicked the air and shrugged, "Oh well."
She stood, dusted her robe and jumped.
(XS)
"This is your new babysitter, Jun." his mother introduced the woman to Raimundo.
He stared at her for a while, "You have a flat chest."
"RAIMUNDO!"
(XS)
"No more Wuya."
"Until the next time."
"I know."
"So, you replaced his medallion with a fake?"
"He won't notice. It's exactly the same. Inscription and everything."
"Wow."
"Hey, Dashi."
"What?"
"…never mind."
"No, tell me."
"Do you think I did the right thing?"
"…yes."
"Ah…thank you." she pulled the medallion off her neck.
(XS)
"Ah…what is this song called again?"
Raimundo sighed, exasperated, "I'm saying this only one more time."
Kimiko snorted, "Fine."
"Bluebird, the song is called Bluebird."
(XS)
Crappy……ENDING! YAY! Happy it ended? Ah…I lost interest in the show long time ago, but I kept writing for you guys. The End the End weeeeeee ahem, anyway...confused? I am, and tired. Bye bye.
My new interests: Fruits Basket and Ichigo Mashimaro.

Ah….btw, Sands of time, she prevented the second release of Wuya.
