Wind Blows Fire Away

Chapter 3...Interesting Ride

"Is Kimiko ready yet?" Clay was getting impatient.

"Hold on! I can't find something!" Raimundo then went into her room.

"What are you looking for?"

"The braclet you got me, I never go anywhere without it. It's good luck."

He started looking around, then he peeked into her jewlery box, sure enough there it was, with the other millions of things in there. "Found it."

"Oh thanks Rai! I could have swore it wasn't in there, checked before." she giggled as Raimundo looked blankely into space. "Well come on!" she pulled him out to where everyone else was. "Okay ready!" They all said good-bye to Master Fung and then left to go to the airport.

(I shall now be skipping how they got there, cause I really have no clue how, and how I would write it.)

Flashback...

Sam knocked on the door of the Pedrosa house. Raimundo's brother, the one closest to him in age answered the door. "Hey, is Raimundo around?" she said peering behind him.

"Hello Sam," he said coldly. She stopped her gaze of the house and looked at him.

"What's up with you? I really need to talk to Raimundo."

"You knew Raimundo had cold snaps occationaly, but you still dumped him when he had one."

"He was having a cold snap?"

"Yeah, duh!"

"Oh no, I dumped him for nothing. I have to talk to him!"

"You're too late to talk, He left."

"What!"

"You heard me." he turned his tone colder, "He left. Got excepted into a school in China, they insisted he went, and well he probably wouldn't have if he still had you."

"What did I do?" she started to cry. She then turned and walked off the step. She sat down as she heard the door shut. She was now crying into her hands now.

End Flashback...

Sam walked down the street, and passed Raimundo's home. "Oh, Rai, if only you were here." She began to start walking again as she heard someone running to her from behind. She didn't turn, but the person ran to the side of her.

"Sam!"

"Yeah?" she said in a bored tone.

"I just- I just heard-"

"Spit it out!" she laughed.

"I just heard, that Raimundo was going on a vacation from school, and he's coming back here! Right here, to this very town!"

"Oh my god, really? No way!"

"Yes way! This could be your chance!" Katie squealed with her friend.

"What do I do? He could come back, he still may go for me!" Sam started to panic.

"I will instruct you, he is coming back and he is soo still going to go for you, totally sure!"

"Thanks Katie! I'm so glad I have you as a best friend!" The two of them then ran back to Sam's house, and got started with how she was going to impress Raimundo.

With the dragons and Dojo...

Everyone went through secerity without a problem, although Kimiko had to lie and say that Dojo was a stuffed dragon made with real scales. She then explained who her father was and said he had enough money to get her something like that. The people agreed and everyone else was surprised Kimiko could lie like that.

"Here's the plan! Come on!" Dojo yelled while Kimiko ran. Suddenly Kimiko stopped.

"What's wrong Kimiko, why did you stop?" Clay ask trying to see what Kimiko was doing.

"Shen-Gong-Wu!"

"What!" Everyone else, but Dojo said.

"It's true, and I believe it's on the plan!" he spud out in between twitches.

"We must hurry and find it!" Omi shot into the plane as the others followed. They were the first on, "Where shall we look?" Omi questioned. As he finished saying this, passangers poured into the plan. Everyone looked back and their eyes widened. They then looked at their plane tickets and tried to find their seats. Kimiko looked at hers then glanced at everyone elses. She took Raimundo by his free hand and she dragged him to another section of the plan. Dojo had jumped to Clay's shoulder and Clay then told Omi where to go. He found his seat right where they were standing and put the two bags attached together apove them. Soon Dojo found his body stuffed into Clay's pocket with his head sticking out.

Kimiko and Raimundo were stunned. After they had found their seats, a plane attendant went over to them and told them, "Are you Kimiko Tohomiko and Raimundo Pedrosa."

"Yes we are." Kimiko smiled.

"Bring your bags and come with me."

Raimundo and Kimiko shot a confused look at eachother, but followed. The attendant led them into first class!

"A secerity guard told me who you were, and saw that you were traveling with this boy and two others. We tried to find your friends on the plan, but no one could. Then we found you and I guess you are the only two coming to first class. You may pick your seats and make yourself comforable. I will take your bags." She took their bags and put them in a cupboard with all the other bags while Kimiko and Raimundo picked seats.

"Rai?"

"Yeah?"

"We're going to your hometown right?"

"Yep."

"Does that mean we might have a chance of seeing your old girlfriend?" Kimiko looked away as she saw Raimundo freeze. "I-"

"We could see her yes. Unless she moved, but I doubt it."

She looked back at Raimundo who was now looking away. She took her hand and laced it with his just as Sam used to do. "You know, you and her are a lot alike. You're both smart, funny, cute, sweet, nice." Raimundo started to think of both of them and how they will or would get along.

Kimiko smiled and leaned over and up to kiss Raimundo on the cheek. "I love you Rai," she whispered.

"I love you too. I will forever."

"Promise?" he looked at her to see if she was serious.

He smiled as he saw she had the dead serious look in her eyes then kissed her on the lips. When he broke the kiss he then whispered, "Promise."

They're was a crash and a scream coming from where Kimiko, Raimundo, Dojo, Clay and Omi broke apart. The seatbelt sign just went off so they were all allowed to get up. A girl sitting next to Clay screamed as Jack Spicer was looking in the bag slot above. Clay got up and kicked Jack backwards, throwing him onto a row of empty seats. Wuya then came out of the bag slot.

"It's not here! Keep looking Jack!"

"I'm trying, man keep your mask on!"

Wuya stopped yelling and thought about what he had just said. She was about to say something, but was cut off by Omi.

"Jack Spicer, Wuya, what are you doing here?"

"Looking for the Wu you big, yellow, round ball of empty ontop of a stick!"

"Jack, that had to be one of the worst things you could have said." Wuya rolled her eyes.

"This time I actually agree with Wuya!" Jack turned around to see Kimiko finishing her sentance with Raimundo behind her.

"And Omi is not a big, yellow, round ball of empty ontop of a stick! And just make a note to self: round ball of empty sounds like Omi's messed up slang, so don't use it again." Raimundo spoke against what Jack said.

"Thank you for reminding me of that most rude, descriptive, making-fun-of sentence Raimundo!" he paused for a moment, "Hey!"

"It's 'that really descriptive insultOmi, get with it!" Raimundo shot back, then shrugged at what Omi second.

"Enough with the fighting! Where is the Shen-Gong-Wu?" Wuya hissed.

The people in the plan had either fainted or just sat their in shock.

"We don't know know where it is, that's why we're trying to find it." Clay tried to explain.

Raimundo then leaned up against something then shot his hand backwards, looked at it he touched it again. He also saw Jack Spicers hand on it aswell.

"Raimundo, I challenge you to-"

"Jack Spicer I challenge you toaXiaolinshowdown!" Raimundo spoke faster than Jack.

"Aww man."

"Jack, you fool! Make sure you win this showdown!"

"Wait, what does this thing even do?" Clay suddenly added in as they all stopped and looked. Dojo popped his head out of Clay's pocket.

"It's called The Weapon of Wielding. It allows the wielder to change it into any weapon and wield damage to their target in the form of their element. If no element is found inside you, their will be a random shot, less powerful and not completely controlable."

"Thanks Dojo!"

"Meh, no problem."

"Okay Jack, back to business. How about your Third-Arm Sash against my Star Hanaibi. We will once again look in the plane for the Shen-Gong-Wu."

"Aww man, and we already had enough trouble finding it. But whatever. Raimundo, I accept your challenge."

The Weapon of Wielding started to glow and all the people except the four dragons, Jack, Wuya and Dojo froze. The scenery changed as the plan got bigger and the three other dragons besides Raimundo sat down.

"Gong Yi Tan Pai!" Jack and Raimundo yelled out as they glared at eachother.

They both started jumping about furiously. Raimundo spotted it then made a run for it. He jumped over a row of seats as he heard Jack call.

"Third-Arm Sash!" It grabbed Raimundo by his wristed and dragged him backward about a foot.

He then snapped into insane focus and yelled, "Star Hanaibi!" It flipped the chairs over and into Jack, he lost focus and let go of Raimundo. Raimundo ran as quickly as possible to the sword, he was about two inches from touching it with his left hand as a claw from the Third-Arm Sash cut into his hand even further. He breathed in deeply trying not to let the pain get to him, but his mind was screaming. Earlier Raimundo put his hand on something sharp that gave him a cut, but now the claw dug into his hand a little bit further. The claw let go of Raimundo, as he heard Jack scream like a little girl, then Kimiko yelling. The what was now in a sword form started to glow again, the scenery changed, Raimundo's hand was held by Kimiko, the girl Clay was sitting by was screaming, Raimundo felt sick as he saw his hand. Clay had already taken out his bad and put the Shen-Gong-Wu inside and Jack had his arms blocking his face as Wuya rolled her eyes.

"Rai, that cut is really deep. Come on!" she walked back to where they were sitting in first class and then got a flight attendant to help with Raimundo's hand. He bit his lip as the flight attendant cleaned it out and tried to soak up some of the blood. She then wrapped it up tightly.

"If you need anything else, please don't hesitate to ask." She smiled and walked away.

"Raimundo, are you sure you're alright?" Kimiko looked at him worriedly.

"I'm sure."

Clay and Omi then came up with their bags as Raimundo tried to change the subject and greeted them. "Hey guys, welcome to first class."

"Wow, I can't believe that just from Kimiko trying to get Dojo onto the plan, we got upped to first class. Oh wow Rai, that looks bad."

"Indeed." Omi agreed with Clay then looking at Raimundo's hand gasped. "Raimu-"

"Guys, I'm serious I'm fine. Uhh, well I'll get the flight attendant to come get your bags and then you guys can find a spot." Clay and Omi sat right behind Raimundo and Kimiko.

After the plan ride ended Kimiko insisted Raimundo get his hand checked one more time. After coming out moaning at the flight attendant telling him the same thing he suddenly smiled as he felt warm lips press lightly against his lips. "Thank you Rai."

"Yeah, Your welcome." he mumbled. His mood brightened when he saw where they were. The windows were big, so the tourists coming off the plane could see their first impression of Brazil. The grass was green and their were still some trees around, even though it was in a city. Raimundo then noticed that he was about two feet infront of everyone and glanced back. Omi's jaw had dropped as his big eyes moved around to see the sights. A small smile crept onto Clay's face as he turned to look at all the views. Kimiko had her cell phone out telling Kieko about all the things she saw by just stepping out of the plane. "Guys." They all looked at him and Kimiko flipped the cell phone shut. "Welcome to Brazil!"

Kimiko picked up her backpack she had brought as her carry on and went up to Raimundo. "This place, it's absolutly beautiful."

"I know it is." They turned and waited for the others to come, Clay got right to it and hurried along while Omi stiffly walked forward watching the windows. "Omi, you know you see more of this outside." Hearing this Omi put his backpack on his back and ran forwards, as though wind was lazily passing by the others.

Kimiko giggled as she ran after Omi. "Omi, come back, you have to get the rest of your stuff!" Clay grinned as Raimundo smirked. They soon ran after the two other monks. After Omi finally ran out of breathe he slowed down and halted to a stop, leaning his hand on a pole and panting. Kimiko laughed as she came up behind him. Raimundo and Clay follow about a minute behind Kimiko.

"We should probably get the rest of our stuff and head out to find somewhere to stay."

"Good idea, there nice hotels in Brazil?"

"Pretty good, not too much, but not to little."

"That's great!" Kimiko said as she walked behind Raimundo. They talked some more until they came to where all of their suite cases were. Kimiko grabbed her four. Two in each hand as the others staired. "What?"

"Nothing!" they all said as they picked up their two bags each. Clay picked up one of Omi's suite cases, because on of them was almost just as tall as he was and he had trouble dragging it. He chuckled as once again Omi ran out of breathe.

Kimiko gasped, Clay gaped and Omi's jaw dropped again as they got outside. The warm wind blew softly against their hair and clothes. It was calm for a city, Clay was probably the one most used to this as Omi didn't live in a city growing up and Kimiko lived in an over-populated one. Car's went by at a steady pace, but a lot of people were walking. The air smelled of sweet gardens and open space, and everyone felt as though they were problem-free. It was as if they were in a trance, but it had all been broken as they heard someone call Raimundo's name.

Well I'm going to leave it at that. Haha! Cliff hangers, gotta love em'. Unless someone doesn't update fanfictions and there's a huge cliff hanger. Oh my god! That bugs me bad. Anyways, please review and read on to chapter 4! Yay! I'm starting to like this fanfiction a lot. I didn't know if it would turn out good or not. Well, enough of me rambling on with the next chapter!
