Chapter 9
Raimundo's P.O.V
'This could be tough one.' I thought and gulping at the sight of the never ending monkey bars. "RAI!" The rest of the crew yelled at me. "Oops." I started running after Chase. "Typhoon Boom-Wind!' I yelled and created a tornado around me so I flew towards Chase with incredible speed. "Gotcha!" I said and he just turned around and put his hands to my head and I stopped. "Uh-oh" I gulped. I started to spin uncontrollably and I was so dizzy. I fell through two of the bars. "Oh, crap! Jetbootsu!" I yelled and luckily I was upside down on one of the bars. "Hmmm…" This gave me a great plan to catch up to Chase.
Chase's P.O.V
'Foolish Shoku warrior.' I thought. I let out an evil grin. "Not so fast, dude." I heard from below and we were synchronized as we were running toward the Copycat cat except he was below me. "Hmph. I guess you're not Shoku warrior for achieving nothing, huh?Eye of Dashi!" I yelled. A bolt of lightning destroyed the next few bars and the debris fell toward the soon-not-to-be Dragon of the Wind. "Ahhh!" He yelled. "Jetbootsu!" He yelled butthe boots attachedonto the falling debris instead. I did an evil snicker and went on.
Raimundo's P.O.V
"Oh man! I'm in serious trouble now." I said. "Wait! Wudai Star-Wind!" I flew up fast. "Yeehaaw!' Way to go, partner!" I could hear Clay. I smiled and gave a thumbs up but then I saw Roy and Kimiko on his back. "HUNH?" I got back on the monkey bars and started running towards Roy. "RAIMUNDO! What on this planet are you doing?" Omi yelled at me furiously. "I think he means 'What in the world are you doing?" Dojo yelled too. I stopped only to see Chase take the Copycat Cat. I sighed and everything went back to normal. "Awww man!" I said kicking the dirt. I heard some laughing behind me. "Well that went way better than I expected." I looked behind me to see Wuya and Roy, who still had Kimiko out cold on his shoulder. "Excellent plan, Wuya." Roy said. "Well, I remembered when I was still a ghost. When I flew into your head," she said poking me on the head. "I remembered about your feelings about this girl, though they were a lot weaker then." Wuya explained. "Now they've grown stronger and now they've become your weakness and a weakness is just another asset for us." She laughed her evil laugh. "Roy, why have you joined Wuya? Don't you know she's evil and ugly too!" I yelled at him.
"You poor, naïve fool. I'm Roy as in Hannibal ROY Bean! Moby Morpher!" He changed back to his ugly bean self. "It was easy with your help, boy! Your Shinsou lock was a key to our success. Get it?" He laughed an evil laugh.We all just stared at him for awhile."What? Oh, nevermind. See you Xiaolin losers later!" He yelled as they all flew off to Chase's lair. "Well, this stinks. Sorry guys." I said with a tone of depression. "It is okay, Raimundo. Though, I would have payed more attention to the showdown and wouldn't have made the mistake of usuing the jetbootsu to stick onto th-" "I get it Omi. I screwed up." I said. "Well, I don't think he meant it that way Rai. But I agree that you probably should have considered paying more attention to the showdown." Clay said. "I know, but…" I paused for a second. "But what, Rai?" I looked up at the sky and Omi and Clay gasped at the sight of a tear run down my face. "Sorry, guys, but I lost Kim, so I'm getting her back alone! Silver Manta Ray!" I threw it and just hopped in. I floored it as soon as I shut the cockpit window.
Kimiko's P.O.V
"Wha- What am I doing here?" I yelled. "It seems the Dragon of Fire has woken up." Roy said. "Roy, are you okay? What happened? Where are we?" I asked. He started to laugh. "My dear, we're in Nowhere. To be more specific, we're in the lair of the great Chase Young. Moby Morpher!" He said turning into "Hannibal Roy Bean?" I screamed. I struggled to get out. "Sorry kiddo, but it's no use." Wuya said coming out of the shadows. "Your friends are hopeless without you. Even your 'great' Shoku warrior was distracted during a showdown to save you." She said with an evil smile. "Rai…" I said to myself. I wanted to cry. "If you want, you can join us Kimiko." Chase Young said as he too came out of the shadows. "It would be a waste of your talents if we had to destroy you. It's too late anyways for your friends. I have the Copycat Cat which I'll use to make the monks join us anyways. After all, you do possess the Ying yo-yo right?" he said leaving with the other two so that I was alone.
Raimundo's P.O.V
'This is bad, but I'm starting to think about why Chase wanted that Shen Gong Wu. All it does is copy people or make people copy you.' I started analyzing how he would use it. "Hmmmm…I got it!" I said. "Got what?" a loud voice said from the backseat. "AHH!" I screamed and Omi and Clay revealed themselves after taking off the Shroud of Shadows. "Nice going, Omi. That went as smooth as pettin a porcupine." Clay said. "But porcupine's are not-" "Sarcasm." We both interrupted him. "Anyway, WHY ARE YOU HERE?" I yelled at them. "We told you Rai, you're not alone." Omi said. I smiled but that quickly turned to a frown.
"But I'm Shoku warrior and I failed. I was the leader and I let the team down." I said. "But you can't be a leader without people to lead, partner." Clay said with a cheery smile. "You're right guys! Let's take those washed-up Heylin losers!" I said. "By the way, what'd you figure out Rai?" Clay said with a confused look. "I figured out that Chase wants to control us to do his evil bidding, am I right?" I said. "That does seem most logical, Raimundo." Omi said "Now you're starting to think like a Shoku warrior, Rai!" Dojo popped up out of nowhere.
"Well, we're here and the doors open sooooo, yup." I nodded. "What?" Dojo said. "It's a trap." All three of us said together as we walked in. "Okay, our game plan is we get Kimiko and try to steal the Copycat cat from Chase." I said. "Alright." Clay gave me a thumbs up. "Crystal glasses." I said and saw where Kimiko was locked up and Chase and the Heylin gang were in the next room. 'Great.' I thought. "Okay, you guys go that way." I pointed in the opposite direction of where everyone is and ahh…" I fell on my knees. "OWW…" I said clutching where the Shinsou lock was. "IT's starting to take over." Dojo said. "Only 5 hours left until you're taken over and then you'll be an emotionless zombie forever!" Dojo said it in a dramatically scary voice. "Thanks. No pressure." I ran in the way Kimiko was. "We know what to do." Omi said. Clay nodded and they followed my orders. "Be careful, guys."
Kimiko's P.O.V.
I've been crying for awhile now. I hope Chase and the others didn't hear me. I felt so useless against this wall. "Why, Rai? Why?" I said to no one. "Why what?" a voice came from the room, but this was a familiar voice. "Nice to see you again." Raimundo came out from the Shroud of Shadows. "Rai! Oh, my knight in shining armor!" I said happily. "Well, I heard there was a pretty damsel in distress who needed rescuing." He smirked. That same old smirk, actually it never gets old. "Kim, about all the stuff I've been saying. None of it's true. It's exactly the opposite of everything I've wanted to say. I had the Shinsou lock ('OWW') " A glow went through is chest."Really Rai?" I said with excitement. "Wait, then how come you're talking normal now? Are you speaking backwards?" I asked. "No, actually I've been using the Reversing Mirror to reverse the effect of talking. I need your help in getting it off though. It seems I've made the effects incredibly strong and I'll become an emotionless puppet if you don't unlock it. Here the Key of Truth." He took it out and was going to give it to me when it was gone from his hand! "Huh?" he had a puzzled look on his face.
Raimundo's P.O.V
"Nice of you to join us, Shoku warrior." Chase and the gang were looking pretty triumphant. "Release Kimiko and give back the Key!" "I don't think so. You see, the reason why I had all of you come here was to have you and the rest of the monks serve my here on the Heylin side. With the Copycat cat, I'm able to make you copy my movements and I will be able to trap your good chi in the Ying-Yang world." Chase rambled on. "Wow. Didn't see that coming." Rai said. "No, you didn't." As Chase and the others followed. "Typhoon Boom-Wind!" and Hannibal Roy Bean dropped the Key. We all dove and touched it. "I challenge you to a Xiaolin Showdown Cosmic Clash! My- "Wait a sec, partner." a voice from the other side of the room came. "You didn't forget about us did you, leader?" Omi said with a half smile. "You're right. Fine a three-on-three Xiaolin Showdown." I said. Chase interrupted with, "Our Eye of Dashi, Fist of Tebigong, and Moby Morpher against your Shroud of Shadows, Ying yo-yo, and Sword of the Storm." "I call a Shen Yi Bu dare! We'll also wager our Fancy Feet, Reversing Mirror and Lotus Twister for your Third-arm Sash, Mantis Flip Coin, and Copycat Cat." I yelled. Technically, without the Copycat Cat, Chase can't control us but this won't be an easy showdown. "The game is Falling Tiles! Whoever's team that can stay on wins!"Omi shouted. "LET"S GO!" We monks said together. "XIAOLIN SHOWDOWN!" We all said in unison.
Whew! I've been typing like crazy but whatever. I'm going to make a sequel to this story. It's gonna be a good one! And longer too. Think of it as the older stages of Rai and Kim. We'll see. The next battle is gonna be awesome! Trust me. Well, plz review. I'm sad when I don't see reviews.
