Hi! I was just reading a good book called, 13 Little Blue Envelopes. It is good so far. Well on with the story.

Chapter 6: The Staff of the Ruler

Raimundo's POV:

"Shen gong wu, people!" yelled Dojo, as soon as we got back to the temple. The last thing I saw was Angel leaving with Chase.

"What is it?" asked Kimiko, still staring at me. Where did she get the nerve to kiss me like that! Everyone knows that I love Angel and that's it. All I want is Angel!

"It is the staff of the ruler. It allows the holder of this wu to take control of a lot of people, only if they rule the world," replied Dojo.

"Well that's useful," I said in a sarcastic tone.

"It most certainly is not Raimundo!" Omi yelled.

"Well, let's get the little doggie," Clay said.

Paris, France-Angel's POV:

"Angel, you look marvelous," Chase said, looking into my eyes. All I was wearing was a black shirt, dark blue jeans, and a pair of black sneakers. What's so marvelous about that?

"You don't to bad, yourself," I replied, politely

"Angel! Mom and Dad are worried about you," Jack yelled from his helibot.

"Tell them I am living with Chase from now until…who knows," I replied.

"Angel, there it is,' Chase said, pointing at a fancy, clear and gold, flag stick.

"I'll get it," I jumped to the other side of the street and grabbed it, but there was a very familiar hand on it, too, and it wasn't my brother's.

"Angel, I challenge you to a Xiaolin Showdown! You name the challenge," Raimundo is so polite to his ex-girlfriends.

"It is a Karaoke contest. My animalia scepter vs. your two-ton-tunic," I said.

"What song?" he asked.

"I choose…To the Beat of my Heart by Hilary Duff!" I said.

"Go ahead. I'm still thinking," was all Raimundo could say.

I heard a drum and came in at the perfect time…

To the beat of my
To the beat of my
To the beat of my heart

I'm thinking about,
Letting it out,
I wanna give in,
I wanna go out,
I'm looking around,
I finally found,
The rhythm of love,
The feeling of sound,
It's making a change,
The feeling is strange,
Its coming right back,
Right back in my range,
Not worried about,
Anything else,
I'm waking up,

To the beat of my,
To the beat of my,
To the beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
It tears us apart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
Now back to the start,
To the beat of my,
To the beat of my,
To the beat of my heart,

I'm up from my down,
I turn it around,
But making it back,
I'm not gonna drown,
I'm taking a stance,
I won't miss a chance,
I want you to see,
I'm not scared to dance,
The way that you feel,
Could never be real,
I want you to know I finished the deal,
So I'm saying to you,
I'll always be true,
To the rhythm inside,

To the beat of my,
To the beat of my,
To the beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
It tears us apart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
Now back to the start,
To the beat of my,
To the beat of my,
To the beat of my heart,

Away away
Away away
Away away
Away away
Away away
Away away
Away away
To the beat of my,
To the beat of my heart,
Away away
Away away

To the beat of my,
To the beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
It tears us apart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
Now back to the start,

The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
It tears us apart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart,
Now I'm back to the start,
To the beat of my,
To the beat of my,
To the beat of my heart,

To the beat of my,
To the beat of my,
To the beat of my heart,
The beat of my heart.

Now it was Raimundo's turn, "What song?" I asked.

"Row, row, row, your boat!" He said, with a big smile.

He started to sing…

Row, row, row, your boat,

Gently down the stream,

Throw your ex-girlfriend over board and listen to her scream,

Three days later, sitting on a lily pad,

Munching on her underwear,

If you see she doesn't care,

Five days later, eaten by an alligator,

That's how the poor thang died!

"RAIMUNDO! I'm going to kill you!" I yelled.

Suddenly, the staff appeared in my hands.

"You sounded as beautiful as you look," said Chase.

"Flattery can get you any where," I said, winking at him.

"Well let's go then," He swept me off my feet and we went back to his palace.

Raimundo's POV:

"What is he going to do to her?" I yelled when they were gone.

"What you are going to do to me," Kimiko whispered in my ear.

"NO WAY, GIRL! I'm a virgin and proud of it!" I yelled at her. I'm only thirteen, I should be proud of it.

"Kimiko, if you could wait for his brain to start working right, maybe he could give you a burnt breakfast in bed," Dojo said.

"He is 10 times smarter than all of you! You guys can't even spell yabbos!" Kimiko yelled at him.

"Kimiko, that isn't even a real word and it was only used in, like, one movie, and that is Hocus Pocus, (It is a good movie, and if you don't know what yabbos are, you're lucky!)" Clay said.

Well that made no sense at all. Well, we better go, before Jack tries to still our wu.

How did you like it? R&R, peoples!
