Hello everyone! Thank you for R&R! I saw Hannibal last night (Evil Kimiko and good Wuya too!)…I knew he was small, but one centimetre? Come on! I thought he'd be a bit bigger than that, about the size of your fist? But still…he does sort of creep me out…Anywho, I have thought about him and my story and he will make an appearance in "Apocalypse Child" which is part three of LotTC trilogy. On with the story…

Xiaolin Showdown: The Legend of the Thunder Child
36: Crystal of Demonica
"What Wu are you taking?" said Omi as he pulled out the Orb of Tonarmi from the draw in the vault wall.
"I call the Wing's of Hurican and the Sword of the Storm!" said Raimundo as he ran out of the vault, with the aforementioned Wu.
"I've got the Third Arm Sash and the Fist of Temigong!" said Clay as he ran out of the vault.
"Ok, let's go!" said Omi as they ran towards the Training grounds where Dojo was waiting for them. They sped through the temple, they were just passing the medical room when Kimiko slowly walked out, and her body was hanging from the end of her arms as she struggled to hold herself up.
"Kimiko!" said Omi "You must rest!"
"No…" groaned Kimiko "Needed to…help…get Shen Gong…Wu…"
"You can't go" said Raimundo "Not in you condition"
"But…" complained Kimiko as Raimundo and Clay carried her back into the medical room.
"Don't worry" said Raimundo as they walked towards the Training Grounds, "I'll give Ryan one for you!"
Kimiko sighed as she looked out of the window and watched them take off.
"Ryan…" she sighed "You're no longer coming back…Next time we meet…Your going to get it…I going to kick your ass…"
Skies above England…
Dojo flew through the cloudy skies of Southern England, his green body weaving in and out of the clouds.
"How long until we get there?" said Raimundo as he looked down at the green fields.
"Hey! I'm flying as fast as I can!" complained Dojo.
"So, why did Dashi create Wu like the Sapphire Dragon and the Crystal of Demonica?" asked Clay.
"I know! He gave me a good enough reason!" said Dojo "It was…Err…Uh…Hmm…I forget…"
"You forgot?" groaned Omi.
"Hey! I'd like to see you remember something for 1500 years!" grumbled Dojo as Omi, Raimundo and Clay sighed.
"We're here!" said Dojo as he began to descend towards the ground. The three of them jumped of Dojo and looked around.
"Dude? Is it's ever sunny in England?" sighed Raimundo as he looked in the sky.
"We're not here to admire the scenery" said Clay "We got to find the Crystal of Demonica before Chase or Jack gets here"
The calm British air was suddenly broken by the whirling of helicopter blades.
"Oh no…" groaned Omi "It seems that we were too soon to be speaking…"
"There's only one person who speaks like that!" said Jack as he rose over the trees, "Hey! It's the Xiaolin losers!"
"Jack!" shouted Omi as he leaped into action, "Prepare for a humiliating defeat!"
"I don't think so!" said Jack as he clicked his fingers. A huge wave of Jack-Bots flew out of nowhere, each one of them armed with hi-tech weaponry.
"Uh oh…" said Clay.
"I have enough weaponry to destroy you guys a thousand times over!" laughed Jack as he hovered out of reach from the monks, checking his watch, "And it's not even lunch time!"
"Do you think we will let you get the Crystal?" shouted Raimundo.
"No…" sneered Jack "I expect you to hand over your Wu as well! Ha ha ha!"
There was a sudden explosion at the back of Jack's robot army that made them all jump. A black blur was jumping from robot to robot, destroying each one as the blur touched them.
"What the!" cried Jack "Jack-Bots! Attack!"
There wasn't time for the Bots to even react to Jack's command, as soon as they turned around; the blur had already destroyed them. Eventually the blur had destroyed each and every robot.
"Ahhh!" cried Jack "My robots!"
The blur suddenly shot towards Jack, there was a brief flash of metal as something cut through one of the blades of Jack's Heli-Bot. Jack screamed has his Heli-Bot twirled out of control over the English countryside.
"Whoa…" gasped Clay "That thing was faster than a pack of dogs hearing the dinner bell!"
"Heh…" said a voice from behind them, "You should see what else I can do…"
They turned around, up in a tree behind them, was a figure, he wore black trousers, black t-shirt, black boots and black gloves, he had an evil grin in his face and his glowing eyes were staring down at them.
"Ryan?" said Omi; his eyes were as wide as saucers, "Did you just destroyed Jack's army for us? Have you left the side of evil forever?"
"No" said Ryan casually, "I'm only did that to remove Jack out of the picture and to show my father how skilled I have become!"
Raimundo glared up at him.
"Ryan, You bastard! You have gone too far!" yelled Raimundo as he, Clay and Omi went into their battle stances, "I'm going to tear you a new asshole!"
"Yeah…Right…" sighed Ryan "Enough chatting, more fighting!"
He jumped down from the tree and landed in his battle stance.
"Ryan! You maybe a strong Heylin Warrior" yelled Omi, "But you can't beat three Wudai Warriors!"
"Care to bet money on it?" said Ryan. Omi raised an eyebrow at him.
"Why would I put money on myself?" said Omi as he gave Ryan a confused look.
"Omi" whispered Raimundo "Sarcasm!"
"Omi…" groaned Ryan as he slapped his forehead, "You're as a thick as your head"
"I'm not as thick as my head!" yelled Omi as he ran at Ryan, "Leopard Attack!"
Ryan said nothing as Omi shot at him like a bullet, his arms flailing like mad.
"Counter Leopard Attack with Kangaroo Counter Kick..." sighed Ryan as he effortlessly manoeuvred around his attack and sent the small monk flying.
"Repulse the Monkey!" shouted Omi as he landed on the floor and dived right at him again.
"Counter Repulse the Monkey with Aero Spin Kick…" sighed Ryan as he leaped into the air and kicked Omi even further away.
"Tsunami Strike! Water!" cried Omi as he shot at Ryan, even faster than normal.
Ryan sighed with boredom as he grabbed Omi by the head, as if it was a basket ball.
"Omi, I'm not even going to bother with countering that attack…" sighed Ryan as he threw Omi through the air and into a tree. He fell through the branches like a basket ball falling through a hoop.
"Yeah!" said Ryan as he punched the air, "A three point basket shot!"
"Okay! That's it!" yelled Clay "Time to take care you, Ku Fu Cowboy style!"
Clay charged at Ryan, each fist looked like they were the size of Ryan's head.
"Clay…" sighed Ryan as he lifted Clay clear of the ground with one hand with a look on his face that made him look like he wasn't even trying, "You're more pathetic than a sheep with three legs…"
He threw Clay at a nearby tree with such force; he almost took the tree down. He looked over at Raimundo.
"Well then Raimundo" said Ryan as he grinned at him, "Care to show me whether your skills have improved"
"Oh, they've improved alright" growled Raimundo as he walked towards him "I won't let you get away with what you've done to Kimiko!"
"Ha!" laughed Ryan "Human emotions…"
"Laugh while you still have your lungs, Ryan!" growled Raimundo, cracking his knuckles, "Kimiko tried to kill herself because of you and you're going to pay for that!"
A voice suddenly rang through Ryan's head,
"WHAT? She tried to…Kill herself?"
"He…He…He…" laughed Ryan weakly, "Shame she didn't die…Would have been less work for me…"
"I…Can't believe it…It's my entire fault…"
"No!" growled Ryan, his hands were on his head as if he had a headache, "Get out of my mind, you…you parasite!"
"What is he doing?" said Clay as he, Raimundo and Omi looked up at Ryan with confused looks on their faces.
"Kimiko…" said the voice in his head, "I'm sorry…"
"No! I hate that bitch!" roared Ryan as he turned around and began punched a tree behind him, "I hate you! I hate you, Kimiko!"
There was a sudden sound of splitting wood as the tree began to fall over. Something shiny fell out of the tree, hit Ryan on the head and fell on the floor. The object was a short clear crystal that was imbedded in a silver pendent. There was a small ruby on the front, with silver wings sticking out of the sides.
"Ahh…" said Ryan grinning, "The Crystal of Demonica!"
Uh oh…Ryan's found the crystal! Will evil get the crystal, or will the dragons get it off him? But what about Kimiko? Does she still exist in Ryan's heart? R&R! Now for some more Xiaolin Showdown series 3…
