Chapter 4: Shopping Spree

Kimiko's POV

Beep beep beep. Beep beep beep.

"Kimiko! Turn off your alarm clock! Some of us are trying to sleep!" shouted Raimundo from the cubicle next to mine.

"Like you helpin' the matter with you yellin', Rai!" shouted Clay from the cubicle on the other side of mine.

Beep, beep, --click.

Thank goodness. Glorious quiet. As it should be on a Xiaolin Monk's free weekend. I had somehow convinced Master Fung to let us have the weekend off.

Today I'm going to mall with my cousin Hay Lin and some of our friends. I told Hay Lin about my dates this weekend and somehow it had gotten around to Cornelia, Irma, Will, Taranee, and Elyon, but it was just me, Irma, Cornelia and Hay Lin going. Will and Taranee got dates for the day.

I snuck out the door quietly. When I was out side it just kind-of hit me.

How am I supposed to get to the mall in Heatherfield? I can't drive that far and I'm only bring one Shen Gong Wu.

Bring just one or two more. I mean what if something happens?

I'll bring the Golden Tiger Claws but that's it.

After I grabbed the Golden Tiger Claws I made a slash in the air and dove through. I landed in the bathroom at the food-courts. Luckily nobody was in the bathroom.

"Oof!"

That is the last time I am going to land here!

I met Irma, Cornelia and Hay Lin in FYE music.

"Hey guys!" I greeted them. "I'm starving. Let's go get some food."

After we all got our food and settled down the conversation started.

"Okay Kimiko," said Irma getting in my face, "who are the guys your going out with?"

"Give us all the details," said Cornelia.

"Yeah," said Hay Lin.

"You want to know who I'm going out with?"

The three of them nodded and gave me those so-pathetic-it's-heart-breaking puppy dog faces.

"First you have to tell me what's up with you and your group, Hay Lin," I said hitting a soft spot. "We told each other when I came to visit you during the summer that we wouldn't keep secrets from each other," I said crosing my arms, "but if you don't want to tell me that's fine, I guess," I said, trying my best to look sad.

Hay Lin looked down at her plate in guilt. "You're absolutly right, Kimiko. I--We did say that." She heaved a heavy sigh. "Here goes." She gave a glance to Irma who nodded. Cornelia just glared. "We're Guardians of the Veil. So say pixies. I have the element of air, Irma is water, Taranee is fire, Cornelia is earth, and Will is the leader.

3rd Person POV

Hay Lin knew better than to tell anyone about Meridian, so she decided to keep her mouth shut, but she did make it clear that she didn't fight creatures of this world. She told Kimiko about the giant slug they battled once and about their astral drops and about what happened when Will left her astral drop. How it had kissed Matt and then at school slapped him for the mishap.

Kimiko's POV

When she finished explaining, my jaw dropped.

"But you can't tell anyone. Not even your friends in China," said Cornelia.

I was shocked and speechless so I just nodded.

"So...who are you going out with?" asked Irma.

I was still speechless so I decided to eat some of my pizza while I got over the shock.

Finally I could speak again. "Do you really want to know?"

They nodded.

"Really, really want to know?"

Again they nodded, but with more enthusiasm.

"Really, really , really want to know?"

"Tell us!" whined Irma.

"Now!" demanded Cornelia. (I think they're getting really ticked now.)

"Okay. The first one who asked me out for tomorrow is my secret adimerer. You know, the one who sent me the books. He also added songs to my Mp3 player."

"Can I listen to the songs?" asked Cornelia and Irma at the same time.

"Sure," I said and gave it to them. "If you want to listen to "Bridge over Troubled Water" and "Angel from Another Planet" they're the last songs," I said as they put the head phones on. "And the other guy I'm going out with is Jack Spicer, believe it or not," I said they finished listening to the songs.

Cornelia's POV

"Can I listen to the songs?" I asked at the same time as Irma did.

"Sure," Kimiko said and handed it to us. "If you want to listen to "Bridge over Troubled Water" and "Angel from Another Planet" they're the last songs I think," she said as she went back to eating.

As I listen to both of the songs I reconized my dear cousin's voice. So Kimiko is who he had wanted to go out with? Why didn't he just tell her that?

"And the other guy I'm going out with is Jack Spicer, believe it or not."

Oh man. Rai's gonna be so bummed...

"We're gonna head toward Ross and Marshall's. Wanna come, Kimiko?" Hay Lin asked Kimiko

"No thanks," she said shaking her head. "I have some shopping to do."

Kimiko's POV

As they walked toward Ross and the other stores, I headed toward Suncoast AKA the best store on the planet!

I love anime, especially InuYasha and Sailor Moon. I also like Card Captors, Case Closed, and X-Men Evolution.

I scanned through the mangas and found one about a really cool one about this female super genius who rules the world. She looked awesome. She had on a black trench coat, black gloves with the fingers cut out, her nails alternating pink and purple, light pink hair that would have reached her lower back if it had not been in a high ponytail, and she had on goggles that looked far too much like Jack's red and yellow ones to be a coincidence, but unlike Jack's, Dijorr's were pink with purple spirals.

Too creepy, I thought and shuddered.

Dijorr, the girl on the cover, looked too much like Jack for comfort.

I decided to go look for the others, but first I looked at the cover of the manga. It was called Sekai Shihai Dijorr which can be roughly translated into The World Controlled by Dijorr.

When I found the others, they were ready to go. I realized it was already going on 8:00 and I had not one, but two dates tomorrow.

Oh boy. What have I gotten myself into? Well, luckily I have the Doppelganger to help me.

(A/N: Is it just me or do you smell a catastrophe coming on?)

I arrived back at home and got into bed when I realized that there was a package on my bed. I opened it and looked at the card. It was from Hay Lin, Cornelia, and Irma. Inside the package was a black shirt with red triming.On the front of the shirt were four dragons: white, red, blue, and green.

This is something I'm going to wear tomorrow.


Hope you like it so far. The next chappie is going to be the last but watch out for the sequel.

Okay, I need a poll here. All you need to do is put what worlds you want to have the XS crew crossover with. Ther is some that I definately going to put in: X-Men Evoulution and InuYasha.
