Okay, sorry about the issues in the prolouge! Here's the actual first chappie:)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Why are we here Wuya?" I sighed. That dumb ghost had once again dragged me away from my fun, just because she wanted to go Shen-Gong-Wu hunting. "What Wu is it?"
Wuya chuckled, that laugh of hers scares me, "A powerful one Jack."
I looked up, "Like the Heart of Jong?"
Wuya chuckled again, now I started shivering, "Yes… like that one."
Good, I needed a strong Wu. All I had left were the Orb of Tornami, the Third-Arm Sash, and the Sword of the Storm. Those Xiaolin Showoffs have the rest of the known Wus, so I need to get something powerful.
"Wuya, where are the geeks, they aren't here!" I shouted as we reached the temple gates. Yuya shrugged, and my 'this is not a smart plan' sense went off. That dragon, Dumbo wasn't it; he could sense the Wu too. Why wouldn't they be here? Was Wuya lying again?
----
My sister had returned, with the boy at her heels. I know I must not engage Wuya in conversation however, it would alert the child. He already looks worried.
----
I looked around, the little monk and his crew weren't here yet. That was weird. Then, suddenly, when I stepped on a floor tile, a gong rang out.
Yuya hissed, "You idiot! That will carry back to the Xiaolin Monastery, hurry up!"
Okay, this I understood. Hurry to get the Wu before the nut-jobs do, easy enough. As we ran through the dark halls, I gripped the Sword of the Strom. I hate the dark. I tried not to look too relieved as we skidded forward, into a lit room.
Wuya glided forward, but there was still something wrong. There was no Wu.
When I told Wuya, she hissed, "It is...hidden, yes, hidden."
Huh. Makes sense.
"Now then Jack, I have figured out how to retrieve it. Simply place your hands on that plaque over there, in front of the alter."
----
"Five dragons?" Kimiko asked Dojo. The dragon upon which she and her three friends were riding replied, "Yeah, yeah, I wanted to tell you, but Master Fung said it was not time yet."
Omi asked, "Then, are we to assume that it is time now?"
"Yep. See, if Wuya was correct when she guessed that Jack had inherited the dragon's power, then she's going to trick him into letting her sister out of the temple."
Raimundo groaned, "The hag's got a sister?"
Dojo growled, "Hey, let me finish my story! Anyway, Jack obviously doesn't know about his power, and therefore, he's never trained with it. Basically, he's only got a fraction of what he might have, like you guys did when you started out."
"Does this mean that he will be unable to complete the resurrection?" asked Omi.
"No, it just means that it will just drain all of his power, most likely killing him in the process, because he can't break the link. The good news is, any outside interference, one of you knocking him to the side will do, can break the link if it removes his hands from the tablet."
"But what about Wuya's sister?" asked Kimiko. "I mean, if we interrupt it, won't she still have some of the power?"
Dojo sighed, "Yep, so she'll be semi-back, being in the temple that long has drained her, so some power goes to freeing her, some to giving her back her power."
Clay muttered, "We're saving Jack, this is weirder than cows makin' cola."
----------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, sorry if Clay's line ain't that super, but it was the best i could come up with on short notice. I loved that one episode when Jack is scared of the dark! (giggles)
