29: The Trap closes, The True revealed

"Ryan…" gasped Raimundo "Could you…Slow down!"

Ryan ignored him, he kept running at the same pace, him mind was focused on one thing: Kimiko, How he longed to see her again, to feel her hands on his. His legs were tired from running at top speed and his throat was raw, but just thinking about her made him keep running. Eventually, they got to a big black door.

"Okay" said Ryan "This is it…"

Raimundo looked at him, still panting from running after him.

"How do…you know…she's in there?" panted Raimundo. Ryan looked at the door and raised his hand; he closed his eyes and clenched his fist.

"I can feel her…"

His fist burst into flame, he opened his eyes and looked at the fire, unlike last time when Kimiko burnt his hand in the meditation room, he felt the fire gently lick at his hand.

"Okay Rai…" sighed Ryan "Let's do this"

He shook his hand to get rid of the fire, and pushed the door open.

The room was a large circular room with torches on each part of the wall. In the middle of the room was a figure lying on the floor.

"Kimiko?" said Ryan as he ran into the middle of the room, the figure began to move.

"Ugh…My minds playing tricks on me again…" groaned Kimiko as she began to wake up.

"Kimiko!" shouted Ryan as ran to her and fell to his knees, "Kimiko! I'm here!"

"Ryan?" said Kimiko as she looked up at him, her blue eyes caught his.

"Kimiko…" said Ryan as he put his arms around her, "I've returned, just like I promised…"

"Ryan…" sighed Kimiko, her voice was weak with exhaustion and relief, "I knew you'd come…"

She moved her head towards his and kissed him, she felt that her life was complete again, even in the depths of Chase's lair, she felt safe in his arms.

"Ryan!" said Raimundo "Save the reunion for later, let's get out of here!"

Ryan helped Kimiko to her feet and pulled her towards the door.

"Err…Ryan?" said Raimundo "We've got company!"

They looked towards the door and standing there was Chase Young.

"So…We meet again Ryan" said Chase as he walked towards him. Ryan moved Kimiko behind him.

"Chase!" growled Ryan "Don't try anything on us; we got what we came for!"

Chase chucked his evil laugh.

"Such courage for someone so young…" said Chase "I admire you bravery…"

Ryan and Raimundo both drew their swords.

"I'm warning you!" growled Raimundo "Go any closer and we will give you one less head!"

"Come now boys" said Chase as he grinned at them, "Do you really think you have a chance against me?"

"Raimundo!" said Ryan "Call for the others!"

"Here they are…" said Chase as he clicked his finger. Three panels on the wall spun around, revealing Omi, Clay and Dojo chained to the wall.

"Damn! He knew we were here all along…" said Ryan "Rai, We may have some trouble…Rai?"

He turned around; Raimundo was nowhere to be seen.

"Where did he go?" said Kimiko with a worried expression on her face, "What did you do to him?"

Chase clicked his finger again, and another panel spun around, revealing Raimundo chained to the wall.

"You were so busy thinking of Kimiko" laughed Chase "You didn't notice that I replaced Raimundo with a fake one ages ago…"

"Smooth move, Ryan!" yelled Raimundo as he glared at him. Ryan began to growl; he has had enough of Chase's tricks and traps.

"You kidnapped my girl…" growled Ryan as static began to build up on his body, "Now you have captured my friends!"

"Yes Ryan" said Chase as he grinned at him, "How else was I going to get you here?"

Ryan lost it completely.

"WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO US!" he yelled at the top of his voice, "WHAT DO YOU WANT!"

Chase put his hand behind his back and pulled out the Rainbow Crown, "I want you, Ryan"

He grinned as he walked towards Ryan.

"This is why you are here…" said Chase as he waved the crown in the air, "This Shen Gong Wu is the key to your past!"

Ryan gasped as he looked at the crown.

"My…Past?"

"Yes, Ryan" said Chase "All this can be explained by you past"

He signalled to a group of cats that entered the room, "Remove the girl"

"Kimiko stays where she is!" said Ryan as he tightened his grip around Kimiko.

"He he he…" laughed Chase "Very well, Ryan…"

"What do you mean Ryan's past will explain everything?" said Kimiko.

"Let's let Ryan tell you…" said Chase as he held the crown in the air, "Rainbow Crown!"

There was a bright flash of rainbow coloured light that engulfed both Ryan and Kimiko, Ryan stumbled back as he felt Kimiko being pulled away from his arms. He closed his eyes; the light was still burning his eyes through his eyelids.

The light died down and Ryan got his sight back. He looked around the room and saw that he was no longer in the large circular room; he was now in a small dark room with a large see-through tank.

"Where am I?" thought Ryan looking around, "I've never been here before, yet…"

He approached the tank,

"This place seems familiar…"

He moved towards the tank and looked in to it; the tank was filled with a strange green fluid.

"What is this? Is this my…past?"

The silence was broken by a door behind him opening; he turned around and saw that Chase was walking towards him.

"Chase!" gasped Ryan. Chase didn't hear him or look at him, he kept walking towards him. Chase walked right through him, as if Ryan was a ghost, as he stepped up to the tank and looked into it.

"It's time you were awakened" said Chase as he ran a hand over the tank. The green fluid began to thin, and a hooded figure was floating in there. There were tubes going into its body, in his arms, his legs and his head. There was a hissing noise as the tubes were ejected from his body. The tank opened, spilling green fluid all over the floor, followed by the hooded figure falling onto its knees on the floor. It made coughing noise as it spat out the green fluid that it was floating in, followed by deep breathing noises as his took its first breathes.

"I…I recognise that breathing noise…" thought Ryan as he looked down at the figure.

"Rise…" said Chase, the hooded figure slowly got to his feet, his head was still covered by his hood.

"My creation" said Chase "I shall call you…Ryan"

"…Ryan" murmured the figure.

"Is that…Me!" thought Ryan. The figure moved his hood off his head; he had light brown hair and brown eyes. Ryan gasped; it was him.

Meanwhile…

"RYAN!" cried Kimiko, tears streaming down her face as he looked down at Ryan, he was lying unconscious in her arms, his eyes were still open, showing no sign of life in them, "WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM?"

"He is lost in his past" said Chase as he walked around her, "He will return soon"

"No…" groaned Ryan as he came round, "I am…Chase is my…"

"Ryan! Thank god!" cried Kimiko as she hugged him, she was suddenly pushed away by Ryan who scrambled to his feet and took a few steps away from Chase.

"You understand now" said Chase.

"No…" gasped Ryan "I can't be…"

"It's true, Ryan. You can't escape the truth"

"No!" yelled Ryan as he fell to his knees. Kimiko ran to his side.

"Ryan, what's going on?" said Kimiko. Ryan's breathing was very fast and he was sweating all over.

"What is it Ryan? Tell me"

Ryan looked at Chase; he had an expression like he was dying to say something.

"Oh no…" groaned Ryan as he slapped his forehead, "Here comes the most clichéd line ever!"

"Ryan..." said Chase, with an evil grin on his face, "I am you father!"

Chase is Ryan's father, that means that his full name is Ryan Young (You probably worked out that he was his son ages ago…) But what will happen now? Will Ryan defeat Chase and escape with Kimiko to live happily ever after? Or will he betray the Xaiolin Dragons and join his father? (Yes, I know this sounds very much like Star Wars…) PROVE THAT YOU REALLY LOVE THE STORY! R&R! I don't want to force you, but just do it anyway! Bye! See you whenever!
