Ahaha, when I should be working on the chapter of Bluebird here I am writing this. I am having a small case of writer's block. I have a nice major fighting scene coming up, but I need to warm up to it. So that's being planned.
This is an one-shot or a two-four chapter story. I don't know which one. DO THE HUSSLE! No, don't do that. For the love of God don't ever dance to that song.
I'm sorry, but all I know is that Dojo is 1500 years old. I'm not sure when Dashi put Wuya in the box. I'm betting Dojo was already born, but young. Like, a few months or a few years. So…he's BORN in here! YAY!
Xiaolin Showdown belongs to the creator/producer. I found the creator is also the producer

We were all the best of friends, never apart from each other. Kind of like the new dragons in the new century. Anyway, we grew up together, all as orphans stuck on the streets with a dream for a new peace.
At least, I thought we all wanted peace. One of us wanted everything, for the sun, the earth, and the stars to revolve around that one. It didn't seem that that person would be the one to turn against us. We were all so happy together, just as friends.
Or so I thought.
At this era, after years of contemplating, I finally understood that person's reasons.
And I don't like it.
It started the same, a normal sunny day where we all were training in the same large field. The mountains kept the strong breezes away from us, the trees provided shade for us, and the river gave us water to drink. All was calm and beautiful, but then a sudden chaos up roared.
"Come on," he laughed, "You can do better than that!"
I paid no attention, this was normal. He was a rebel.
"Shut up," she growled unpleased by his teasing, "I'm trying as hard as I can!" she jumped after him her foot stuck out.
He just smirked, grabbed her leg and tossed her away like a doll, "Seriously, do you need help? Maybe Xia here can help you."
She just grew madder, "Shut up and fight!"
I sighed from my pose on the giant rock, "Hey Lee, you think I should stop them? Seems she's getting more pissed off every time they spar." my head flopped back to see the scenery behind me.
Lee smiled gently, he was always calm and pleasant to be around, "Let them go. They do this everyday."
"That's what I'm afraid of you fool."
A sudden gust of wind, I looked to see what was happening. It happened then, the start of the end of our long friendship.
An item floated from the sky into his hands, "Dashi," I barked, "What's in your hands?"
Dashi could only stare, "I," he started, "Don't know."
It was an interesting item. It could fit into one's palm nicely with a diamond shape to it. In the middle was a strange red jewel.
"Dashi, what have you done?"
Our master, he was the kindest of them all. He came back from his trip to the nearest village.
"I don't know master," Dashi gasped, "I just got really excited and then I felt a jolt of lightning through my body and the next thing I knew…" he held up the item.
Master could only stare; he knew something, "Come children," he motioned to the small cave, "Inside."
Lee and I looked at each other and ran after the others.
"Master," I sighed, "What is going on?" I pointed to the object in Dashi's hand, "What is it? What did he do?" the start of years of pain and suffering is what he did.
Master lit the lantern on a protruding piece of earth, "I'm afraid, the prophecy has come to pass." the light gave it all an eerie look, "Dashi is the prodigy child."
(XS)
"Wuya," I whispered, her back was to me. I knew she was upset, "At least we're friends with a prodigy child!" I tried, "I mean, we can be there to make sure the whole thing doesn't go to his head." like that would happen. He didn't like attention at all; he would always give someone else the credit just because he hated big crowds.
I could hear her angered breathing, "I'm going to get him back," she growled, "You'll see Xia. Soon people will bow before my feet and hear me as a person worthy of love and worship."
A foolish dream at the time, "Wuya," I laughed lightly, "Don't take it seriously. We are the ones who made Dashi as he his. If it weren't for your hard training with him, he wouldn't have been the prodigy child."
I said the wrong thing, and I knew that as soon as I stopped speaking.
"Exactly," she sat up staring at me with hard eyes, "If it weren't for me none of this would have happened." I could feel her jealousy, "I'm going to correct it. Dashi saw me as a weaker being, I'm going to get him back." she spat and flopped back down on the floor.
I slowly laid back down, "But Wuya," I whispered quietly so she couldn't hear, "He loves you so dearly."
If only I could have told her earlier.
(XS)
Wuya was gone. The day after the conversation we had, she disappeared leaving only her sash. It was a sign. And I knew it.
Dashi sighed, "Hey Lee, wanna spar?"
Lee smiled, "No thanks, I just need to relax today." he felt the same as I did.
"Xia?"
I shook my head, "I feel exhausted." I had to haul all the water up the hill.
Dashi sighed again and walked away to some other open area.
Lee looked at me, "Well," he started, "Aren't you going after him?"
I pointed to myself mouthing "Me?" I felt insulted. And I didn't even know why.
Lee nodded, "Yes you," he stretched his arms, "I can't get Dashi to smile. But you can, you and Dashi have a tight friendship." he looked at me, "Plus, you know something that Wuya doesn't."
I knew what he meant. Wuya and Dashi were very close, so close that sometimes we would try to get them in an awkward situation…at which would end up with us being half dead. But it was I who Dashi shared his secrets with, I was the sister and he was the brother.
I could only growl, "Fine," I snorted, "But next time, you go." I pointed at him viciously and walked to where Dashi was.
"Good luck!"
"Stuff it country boy!"
Dashi had the element of wind. So once in a while, he would create a ruckus around us. Leaves would fly, small hurricanes would hit us, and once in a while, just to scare us, he would blow out all the lanterns. So it was normal to see him try to make the trees, the plants, even the earth, to bow down before him. It never worked; it would just destroy some houses.
"Dashi," I yelled over the strong wind, "DASHI!" I screamed.
Dashi stopped moving, "What?" he grumbled.
I smiled my best, "What's wrong? You miss Wuya?"
He blushed furiously, which was abnormal mind you, "I guess," he mumbled and forced a cough, "What are you doing here?"
I groaned and cracked my spine, "Just felt like sparring." I held out my fists, "Come on great warrior of the wind, take me on!"
Dashi could only smile, "Nah, I feel tired."
I dropped my arms, "Thanks for that, I was all excited." I punched the air and relaxed, "Are you okay?"
Dashi leaned against the giant boulder. That boulder we played on when we were children, "Yeah," he sighed, "I guess."
I scowled, "The great prodigy child, Dashi, a loss for words?" I walked up to him and rubbed his bald head, "I laugh." and I laughed.
I could see the vein on his forehead, "That's not funny," he pushed my hand away, "And stop rubbing my head. I didn't want to be bald."
"And neither did Lee…well…he's not bald…" I pulled my braid, "Aha, I guess I'm being pretty stupid, aren't I?"
Dashi laughed and threw his head back, "Yeah…" he fell silent, "You think Wuya's gonna come back?"
I gazed at the prodigy child. He was lowered down to a child who misses his mother, "Dashi," I started, "You can't think that Wuya would leave forever. She'll come back. You need to tell her anyway." I smirked, "You gotta tell her that you love her."
I could see Dashi smile that foolish grin, "Yeah," he sighed, "Yeah, I gotta tell her."
I elbowed him, "Come on, I don't want to leave Lee alone."
Lee came up to me all of the sudden, "Ah Xia, you don't need to worry about me!"
I gasped and fell backwards and down the hill, "Damn," I cried, "YOU!"
Laughing was all I heard.
(XS)
Master came back with an egg in his pack, "Children, come look. A dragon's egg."
I was awed, "Amazing, these creatures are so rare these days!" I picked it up and examined it, "Whose is it?"
"Dashi," Master replied, "He will need the dragon from now on."
I pouted, "Oh…"
"Hey," Lee smiled; "We can always take the little dragon with us!" he laughed.
Dashi snatched the egg away from me, "Not a chance!"
I noticed it, the egg was starting to hatch, "Holy…crap." I cursed. I always curse, that's my thing.
The whole egg burst in half and out came a small bug eyed little creature.
"Hello…" Dashi started.
"Dojo," the dragon said, "My name is Dojo."
We screamed. I don't know why but we screamed bloody murder. I guess it could be because the dragon already knew his own name; then again it could be just that he was an actual dragon. Hey, we were only teenagers.
Master sighed rubbing his temples, "Children, please."
Dojo laughed at us, "Ah, my dad told me this would happen."
I kicked him.
(XS)
Dojo studied the object, "Yep, a Sheng Gong Wu." he placed the object on the rock.
"Sheng Gong Wu?"
"Objects that contain powerful…well powers." Dojo held this one up, "Name it."
Dashi looked at it, "It kinda looks like an eye…so…Eye of Dashi!" he smiled.
Lee and I groaned, "That is so lame." I groaned.
Dashi scoffed, "Whatever, it's better than anything you thought up."
Lee held me back, "Um, now what?" grunted Lee.
Dojo gave the Wu to me, "Now that Dashi named it, anyone can use it by simply calling out the name."
I smirked, "EYE OF DASHI!"
"Say it! Don't yell it!" cried Dojo.
I stuck the object in the air. The sky grew dark and lightning sparked from it and shot towards the sky. My eyes practically popped out of my sockets, "Holy…shit!" I gasped.
Dashi gaped, "Wow," he looked at Dojo, "But how can I assign the magic to the object?"
"You can't," replied Dojo, "You just make them and they decide whatever they are going to be." Dojo looked up at Dashi, "Sometimes you can assign the magic, but that's only if you grow to be extremely powerful. Like a grand master."
Dashi smirked, "Okay then, I'm gonna become a grand master!"
I looked at the little dragon, "How do you know all of this?"
Dojo shrugged, "Parents, they speak to the egg."
I raised an eyebrow and shrugged, "Whatever."
(XS)
I should have known. Wuya did come back, but not for us. She came back, yes, but she was then…evil.
"What's that one?" I pointed to the garment in Dashi's arms.
"The two ton tunic!" the tunic became solid and weighed Dashi completely down.
I screamed, the heavy Wu fell on my toes, "You BASTARD!" I slapped him upright his head.
"Hey, watch the head!"
"Oh shut up!"
Lee ran up to us, "Guys," he huffed his eyes were wide with surprise, "Wuya's back!"
Dashi smiled, "Really?"
I glanced at Lee, he didn't seem very glad.
Dashi ran to the cave where he spotted Wuya, "WUYA!"
"Lee," I started, "What's wrong?"
Lee was pale, "Wuya," he started, "Isn't herself." he shivered.
I stared at the scene taking place. Dashi was hugging Wuya tightly…which seemed very abnormal of him. Wuya just stood there. She was a very bright and cheery girl…but this time…
"Dashi," I cried, "Get BACK!" Lee and I ran to where they were. Where was Master?
Dashi looked at us, "Aren't you gonna welcome Wuya back?"
"Lee, where's master!" I hissed.
"I don't know," Lee hissed back, "He's always disappearing and reappearing."
"Dashi," Wuya smiled, "It's good to see you again. Same with you, Xia, Lee." she smiled that bright smile. But it was forced.
"Wuya," I growled, "Who are you?"
Wuya only stared at me, "What do you mean?" Dashi was still holding her shoulders.
I looked around, "Lee, look after them."
I ran into the cave, I needed to find Dojo and Master. And for what seemed to be miles, is when I found the two. Or at least, what was left of Master.
I choked on the disgusting fumes, "DOJO!" I cried, "WHERE ARE YOU?"
Dojo appeared from behind a rock, "Here." he wheezed.
"Dojo," I gasped. His throat was scorched, "What happened? Where's Master?" I looked around.
"Wuya came back, but as soon as Lee left, her hands turned into fire." Dojo choked, "Please don't let me talk."
I nodded and grabbed him, "Show me, where's Master?"
Dojo looked down and shook his head.
"Tell me."
Dojo didn't respond.
"No," I knew at that moment life was going to end, "He's dead…isn't he?" I cried, "Wuya killed him, didn't she?" I cried.
Dojo nodded, slowly.
The tears just wouldn't stop. My element was water, so did that mean water was endless in me?
"XIA!" I heard Lee cry. The rocks were flying from inside the cave, "GET OUT! I'M USING THE ROCKS IN THE CAVE!"
Lee's element was earth. He was strong, even though it didn't seem so.
I ran, but tripped over something. I hopped and turned to see what it was. Why didn't I see it before?
"Oh my God," the tears came out stronger, "Shit." I cursed. I ran out quickly as the cave caved in behind me. I jumped and tumbled through what was left of the opening. When I stood, I found my clothes were ripped around my shoulder and arms. Dojo was shaking in my arms, "Its okay little buddy."
Dashi was on the ground staring at Wuya. Wuya was up in the sky laughing, "Foolish humans, can't believe I was friends with you!" her hand became fire and she threw her arm at me. A fire ball hurled towards me.
"WATER!" I cried out of sheer fear. Water flew out of my hand and collided with the fire ball. Steam was everywhere.
Lee ran up next to me, "She became stronger."
I nodded, "Into a witch." I glanced at Dashi, "Dashi! Get up!"
Wuya cackled, "Poor Dashi, you never thought of me as someone up to your standard." she growled, "So I'm repaying the favor!" she threw her arms towards Dashi.
"DASHI!" Lee and I cried. We ran towards him and stood guard in front of him. I closed my eyes. Then, Dojo disappeared.
"Damn DRAGON!"
I opened my eyes and gasped. Dojo was large and looked a lot more mature, "Dojo?" I cried.
"Hop on!"
We all jumped on Dojo's back; Lee had to haul Dashi on Dojo.
"Damn you dragon!" Wuya cried. I became confused. Why wasn't she chasing us?
"My name is Dojo you witch!"
(XS)
"Master…" I started, "Is dead. I saw his burnt body in the cave." I groaned and buried my face into my hands, "How could this have started? We were all such close friends! We grew up together; we ate together, played with each other…"
"People change," Lee finished, "I guess she had enough. I guess…"
"She wanted more attention." I started, "She told me. It was the night before she left." I sighed, "But why kill Master?"
"Maybe," Lee was staring at the fire, "The power went to her head, and she felt that anyone that was in her way should be killed."
I glanced at Dashi.
Dojo rubbed his throat.
"Hey," I growled, "Why did you yell at Wuya when you couldn't "speak"?"
"Ah," Dojo sighed, "I felt I should have done that." he felt his throat, "My throat is better, but I won't be able to blow out a lot of fire anymore." he sighed, "I'm a FAILURE!"
"Drama queen." I muttered. I glanced at Dashi as Dojo rambled on about how he wasn't a drama queen.
"Dashi," Lee patted Dashi's back, "Cheer up."
"How can I," Dashi mumbled, "I wanted to tell her…but, she's now evil." he stared at the ground, "I have to defeat her in combat…but…I don't want to kill her…"
I growled, "Geez where's that guy who didn't give a damn about something and what not!" I stared at him hard, "Don't take her lightly, she's just going through a phase." or so I thought.
Dashi looked up, "You think?"
"Am I wrong?"
"You were about Wuya."
"Shut up Lee."
Anyway, the point is, Dashi listened to me. He didn't take Wuya really seriously. From then on, we trained together, just the three of us. He created more and more Sheng Gong Wu that aided us into defeating Wuya. But as the years went by, Wuya grew more powerful and angrier. Sometimes she would send goons after us.
We went though strong opponents who wanted the Sheng Gong Wu. There was the evil plant with the weird accent who wanted world domination. Thankfully, Dashi created a Sheng Gong Wu to destroy it. Unfortunately, a seed was left behind and so nearby monks helped us bury it deep into the ground under a Buddha statue.
There was the time where Dojo became feral and grew two heads. That wasn't easy considering who he was. I let him out once and he sunk Atlantis. Man, was I in deep trouble that day.
Yes, a lot went on as we grew older and stronger. Then, the time came. The final battle between us…and Wuya.
(XS)
AHAHAHAHA! I stop there! I will continue Bluebird, of course, but this one I made out of fun. There is only ONE more chapter and that's the end of this one.
I'm sorry about the ending, it was pretty sucky.
