Xiaolin Showdown: The Legend of the Thunder Child

04: The Warrior of Wind and Storms

"Its time to get my own back for hitting me with the thunder bolt, Ryan!" said Raimundo as he cracked his knuckles and went into his battle stance.

"Be careful Raimundo" called Master Fung "Do not underestimate your opponent!"

"That's right Raimundo!" said Ryan as he stretched his arms and legs "You don't want to be beaten by the same person twice in one day!"

"First time doesn't count!" shouted Raimundo as he charged at Ryan. His body spun around, swinging his foot into the air and directly at Ryan. As quick as a flash, Ryan swiftly dodged the attack with a quick back flip.

"Why did you hit me with the thunder bolt?" said Raimundo as he positioned himself for another attack.

"For being too hard on Kimiko!" said Ryan as he moved around Raimundo, keeping his distance.

"That was training!" said Raimundo

"You could have hurt her badly!" said Ryan.

"Less talk, more butt kicking!" shouted Omi from the sidelines.

"Okay then Rai" said Ryan as he went into his battle stance "Bring it on!"

Raimundo shot at Ryan, his fists were just a blur as he swung them at him. But before the first punch on could hit, Ryan arms shot out and blocked each attack with the same speed and agility as Raimundo's punches.

Raimundo continued to punch and Ryan continued to block, when they suddenly pulled back.

"Had enough Ryan?" said Raimundo as he watched Ryan, who was breathe heavily.

"Dude! My fists are killing me, and not a single one hit him!" thought Raimundo "He's quick with the blocking!"

"Nope!" said Ryan as he looked at Raimundo, who was also breathing heavily, "Keep 'em coming!"

"Hmm…" thought Ryan "Even with my fast blocking reflexes, he still can do damage"

"Ryan sure is quick" said Clay

"Yes" said Omi "He has some skill"

"Yeah, but when it comes to speed attacks" said Kimiko "Raimundo is the horse to bet on"

"Raimundo's a horse?" said Omi scratching his head

"Figure of speech" sighed Kimiko

Raimundo charged at Ryan again, but this time he sneaked in his wind element into his barrage of fists and kicks. His attack was so fast and violent; it kicked up a huge dust cloud that covered both Raimundo and Ryan.

"Ha!" laughed Raimundo from inside the dust cloud "That should have done the trick!"

When the dust settled, Raimundo stepped back to get a good view of where Ryan was originally standing, but he was no where to be seen.

"What the!" gasped Raimundo as he looked around, "Where did he go!"

Someone whistled to him from the other side of the training grounds.

"Hey Raimundo! I'm over here!"

Raimundo turned around and gasped, right there on the other side of the field, was Ryan. He had somehow got to the other side of the field, without anyone seeing him. Raimundo charged at him again, but Ryan dodged the attack again and managed to clear half the training ground in one jump. Raimundo kept charging at Ryan, but each time Ryan managed to doge every single attack with acrobatic skill.

"For an apprentice monk, he sure has good agility skills" said Omi

"Yes" said Clay "He's as fasta dog hearing the dinner bell!"

"He's good…" said Kimiko "But he hasn't even tried to attack Rai yet…"

But the pressure was building up, and Raimundo was beginning to lose his temper,

"Will you stop jumping about!" he shouted.

"Okay then" said Ryan. He ran at Raimundo, who was expecting him to do an airborne attack, but then Ryan ducked and slid between Raimundo's legs making him stumble forwards.

"Come on Raimundo!" said Ryan as he stood back up "You can do better than that!"

"That's it!" he roared "No one makes a fool of Raimundo! Time to kick it up a notch!"

He leapt up to the air and began to summon a gust of wind around him, and with a loud voice, he yelled, "Typhoon Boom! Wind!"

The gust of wind swirled around Ryan, kicking up a huge dust cloud that engulfed the entire field.

"Raimundo!" shouted Kimiko "What are you doing!"

Raimundo looked down at the other monks, Clay, Omi and Kimiko were looking at him with shocked faces and Master Fung had his hand on his forehead.

"Uh oh!" said Raimundo, waving his arms trying to stop the gusts of winds. The dust began to settle, and Raimundo began to see a figure emerge from the cloud. Everyone gasped as they saw Ryan walk out from the dust cloud towards them, although he was blown about, it looked like the wind didn't affect him much at all.

"What the?" gasped Raimundo "How the hell?"

Ryan gave him a small grin as he moved towards him.

"You got good control of your element" said Ryan as he brushed the dust of his clothes.

"Whatever…" said Raimundo, lowering himself to the ground, "I could beat you if I was to use my full power! But you don't even have an element!"

"Oh really?" said Ryan as he gave him another grin. He put his hands together. Suddenly, a gust of wind began to swirl around him, collecting the wind in his hands like a mini tornado.

"What in tar nation?" gasped Clay

"Is he a dragon of the wind too?" gasped Omi

The air around Ryan's hands began to cackle as electricity began to form around him like storm clouds.

"This is my element…" said Ryan as all the wind and electricity formed a ball around his hands, "Thunder Ball! Lighting!"

He swung the ball like a bowling ball, flinging it directly at Raimundo. It hit him like a cannon ball, knocking him clean of his feet.

"Looks like I win! That was a good fight, Raimundo" said Ryan as he walked over to try and help Raimundo up, "Are you okay?"

Raimundo grumbled to himself as he got to his feet, glaring up at him.

"You caught me of guard, that's all!" he said in an annoyed voice. They both turned around when they noticed Kimiko, Omi, Clay and Master Fung walked over to them. "Wow!" said Kimiko "I have never seen an elemental move like that before!"

"I must admit that was pretty amazing…" said Clay.

He turned to Raimundo, who was still glaring at Ryan.

"Err…Looks like he flattened you, partner"

Raimundo grumbled to himself again as Master Fung approached Ryan.

"Ryan, let me be the first to say congratulations on your victory" said Master Fung

"Thanks Master Fung" said Ryan bowing. Master Fung then turned to Raimundo,

"Raimundo, your impatience resulted in your defeat"

"Sorry Master Fung…" muttered Raimundo as he brushed the dust off his clothes. Master Fung turned to the others.

"Now that training is over, you are all free for the rest of the day until dinner tonight"

"Sorry about beating you up so bad" said Ryan looked over at Raimundo, "I haven't got full control over my wind element and it does tend to get out of control"

Raimundo looked at Ryan with a cold stare,

"I'm going to put on clean robes" he grumbled stormed off towards the temple.

"Hey Rai! Hold on partner!" called Clay as he went after him. Ryan sighed as he turned to Kimiko and Omi.

"Do not worry about him" said Kimiko "He like this when ever he gets his ass handed to him"

"Raimundo isn't as disciplined as us" said Omi "Because he was last to make apprentice"

"Omi…" sighed Kimiko as she frowned at Omi "Will you stop bringing that up"

"Well, I would love to hang around…" said Omi, changing the subject "But I have some training I to catch up with"

And with that, Omi ran off towards the obstacle course, leaving Ryan and Kimiko alone on the training grounds.

"So…" said Ryan looking at Kimiko "Now what?"

"Don't know…" said Kimiko. They stood there in an awkward silence, trying to work out what to say to each other.

"I know what we could do" said Kimiko "How about a tour?"

"Hmm…" thought Ryan "Sure, why not?"

"Follow me then" said Kimiko.

Kimiko led him through the various parts of the temple, and introduced him to the other residents of the temple.

"Okay Ryan" said Kimiko as they stood in the centre of the courtyard and pointed towards one of the temple buildings, "There's the Wu vault where we store our Wu"

She moved her arm around and pointed in another direction.

"There's the kitchen, the Main Hall and to the left is the Meditation Hall" said Kimiko "And that's the dormitory, but you know that already"

They spent the next half an hour of being looking around the rest of the temple, making sure that Ryan knew every inch of the temple. They finally ended up back at the Dormitory.

"Thanks for the tour, Kimiko" said Ryan as he opened his curtain to his room, "I going to take five for a bit"

"Okay" said Kimiko "See you at dinner!"

Kimiko walked of down the corridor, leaving Ryan alone in his room. He yawned as he sat on his bed.

"Boy, I'm beat…" he groaned as he lay down "Looking round a temple really tires you out…maybe I'll take… a small nap…zzzzz…"
