Wind Blows Fire Away
Chapter 8...The Dance
"What makes you so sure it was me?" Jack Spicer shot back at Raimundo and Kimiko. They had can across each other in the hall.
"Omi and I saw your stupid red hair and black jacket right before we passed out!" Kimiko was now hold onto Raimundo's arm.
"It's not like it hurt anyone!" Jack grinning as Kimiko and Raimundo glanced at eachother.
"That's not the point!" Kimiko let go of Raimundo's arm and took a small step forward.
"We don't know what's wrong with it, but you hurt Kimiko's wrist!" Raimundo stepped infront of Kimiko now.
"She'll get over it, she doesn't seem to be too bothered right now!"
"Jack! What's going on?" Wuya had flew through the door.
"Meh, nothing."
"Jack! Like I said, you are so going to pay for knocking them out!"
"Rai please, he's right, nothing happened. Let it go for now, it's late." Kimiko pleaded with Raimundo in a small voice.
"Kimiko has a point!" Jack shrugged finally showing how nervous he was.
"You stay out of this!" Kimiko blew up in his face.
"Okay! I'm staying, I'm staying," Jack waved his hands infront of his face and shrinking his head.
"Rai, please not tonight. Go after him tomorrow or something, just please."
"Jack, you're lucky Kimiko is nice, otherwhise, you'd be dead!" Raimundo turned with Kimiko and started walking back.
Jack then ran into his room and closed the door, leaving a very confused Wuya in the hallway. "Oh whatever!" she shrugged to herself and flew through the door.
"Kimiko-" Raimundo was cut off mid sentence by a kiss on the lips.
Then she broke it and said, "Thank you Rai!"
"Uhh," he smiled, "You're welcome."
"Time to go to sleep, big day tomorrow!" Kimiko said yawning then hugged Raimundo and went quietly to her room. Raimundo sigh and opened his door and layed down on his bed. He pulled the blanket over his head and instantly fell asleep.
The next morning...
Sam awoke lazily and yawned. She and Katie had watched movies for part of the night last night, and she saw Katie was still asleep. She got up and got her cloths she would wear before the dance and a towel and went into the bathroom to take a shower. After she was done she got dressed in her pink and white halter top and white caprees. Then she put her hair in a pony tail and went downstairs. Her mother was making breakfast.
"Hey mom!"
"Hi Sam, is Katie up?"
"Nope not yet, least last time I checked. I told her last night that she was welcome to take a shower when she got up. I assume she will."
"Okay, well your father left for work about five minutes ago, soo I made breakfast today for him. Sit down and you can eat." She smiled as her daughter sat down and took some french toast off a plate in the middle of the table. "Excited for the dance tonight?"
"Yeah! I can't wait."
"You have someone to go with?"
"Yeah, his name is Jack. He's really nice!"
"I see. Well maybe you can get Katie to take a picture of you two. I'm sure you'd be quite cute together."
"Mm, maybe."
Katie got up and got her clothes from her backpack, and grabbed a towel. Then she went in and took a shower as Sam told her she could last night. The water of course wasn't as warm because Sam got up first, but Katie couldn't complain. She then got dressed into a green tank top with tan caprees, and put her hair up in ponytails. Then she went downstairs to see Sam and her mother eating breakfast.
"Good morning sleepy head!" Sam's mother smiled.
"Hey Kat, come eat!" Sam invited her to the table.
"Mornin' and thanks. Well it's about 11:00 now, we can probably do something for about three hours then we should go down to help decorate, then get ready." Katie thought aloud.
"Okay! Mom, can you do the dishes?"
"I suppose so dear, but you're going to have to do them sometime."
"I know! I love you!" Katie and Sam went downstairs to their entertainment center and decided to try and play DDR heavy mode, and see how good they both had gotten.
With the dragons and Dojo...
Omi woke up and heard the water running in the bathroom. 'Kimiko must be taken a shower!' he thought and sigh. "Dojo? Dojo, where are you?"
"Uhh, huh?"
"Dojo!"
"I'm awake! I'm awake!"
"Tonight is the dance!"
"Yes I know that Omi."
"I want to go!"
"You can't, you have no one to go with." Dojo smirked.
"You and Clay shall ocompany me!"
"Oh no!"
There was a knock on the door. Omi went and opened it, it was Clay, Raimundo and Nick.
"Hey guys, we were thinking we could go do somethings in town before the dance. Have a little fun." Nick explained. "Since I mean, I don't think you did anything yesterday did you?"
Everyone looked at eachother and then shook their heads no. "Where's Kimiko?" asked Raimundo.
"Stop and listen..." Dojo trailed off as everyone got quiet. They could hear the water going in the bathroom, so they decided to just hang out and wait until she was done.
Kimiko got out of the shower and tried herself off. Then she put on a red skirt, white belt, white knee-high boots with red pom poms coming off of them, a red tank top and white fingerless gloves. She then blow dried her hair and put it up into her normal two ponytails.
"Ready Kim?" Raimundo asked.
"Yeah, but uhh where are we going?"
"Downtown, see the town haven't done much of that yet." Clay answered.
"Ah okay sounds great!" as everyone was leaving Kimiko picked up one of her small backpacks shaped like a furry ball with wings, and two small arms with eyes that went off the top of the head very slightly.
They hours went by as both groups, Sam and Katie and Omi, Clay, Kimiko, Raimundo, Nick and Dojo, were downtown. Finally, it was 2:00 which meant Katie and Sam had to go back and get their stuff, and go help out with setting up the place of the dance.
After all the commotion something snapped into Raimundo's head. His parents. He decided to take everyone to his own house. As they went up the path that led to Raimundo's front door Omi and Clay were dazed. Clay had never seen a house that big and Omi had never seen a house like that at all. Kimiko was stunned a little too, but she was used to the bigger houses. Raimundo knocked on the door and then waited for the sound of footsteps. His mother then opened the door.
"Rai!" she locked him in a hug as Raimundo's brothers and sister came to the door.
"Hey guys!" Raimundo said in a happy voice.
"Raimundo we missed you!" everyone said as his mother stepped back.
"Mom, siblings, you all know Nick, but this is Kimiko, Omi and Clay." As they all went inside to talk Raimundo's brother he was closest to in age pulled him aside.
"Dude, is that Kimiko chick your new girlfriend, cause she's seriously hot!"
"Yes, she is now shut up cause I think everyones looking over here, otherwhise someone can hear us."
"Cool!"
With Sam and Katie...
"This place was turned from boring old gym to ball room!" squealed Sam.
There were balloons everywhere, in the air and on the ground, but out of the way. Streamers up along the walls and on the tables. There were enough tables for over 65 couples, about 5 tables for food and drinks. A traditional disco ball, a stage set up for numerous bands a spot for a Dj, and there was a sort of confetti everywhere. The decoration commity was going to dump the full load of confetti down on everyone while they danced. That night, was going to be perfect...For some people. Katie and Sam then went to go get ready.
With the Dragons, Nick, Dojo and Raimundo's family...
After hours of getting to know eachother, talking and what not, everyone decided it was time to get ready for the dance. They said good-bye to eachother and Raimundo's mother told them to come back before they left to go back to school.
As they got back to the hotel room Kimiko scrambled for the bathroom with the bag with all her stuff in it. Omi, Clay and Dojo decided to go and hang out just to see how things went with Kimiko and Raimundo. They thought maybe they could pick up a girl with no date.
Everyone waited for Kimiko to get ready, except Nick. He had gone to pick up his own date. It was now 15minutes before the dance started, but of course everyone always got there early.
"Kimiko! Hurry up, we're going to be late!" Raimundo laughed.
"Almost done!" Kimiko was just brushing out her hair and putting in the tiarra, as she opened the door Clay and Raimundo's mouth dropped.
"Whoa!" they both gasped together.
"I'm ready, let's go," she smiled as she walked past pulling on Raimundo's arm. It was as if Raimundo was in a trance, because he got up at her pull and followed her, which he normaly wouldn't do. When they got to the dance, to Raimundo, it looked like the gym was evolved by a type of magic. Kimiko was stunned as to every party she had ever been to had never been so original. Omi had never been to a party, Dojo hadn't seen anything like it and Clay was the most used to a dance like this.
Finally the real dance started and Omi, Clay and Dojo sat down to watch how things went. As Kimiko and Raimundo danced and had a great time, Sam and Jack were having a lot of fun too.
Jack told Sam of Kimiko and how she was dating Raimundo and told her how he knocked Kimiko out in a battle for Shen-Gong-Wu. Sam liked Jack's sense of humor and stupidity, but she still wanted Raimundo back, and she was going to do anything to get him, but not tell Jack about it.
Nick came to the dance with Katie. They had an excillent time as friends, and they thought of becoming a little bit more than that. Even though Katie was Sam's best friend and Nick hated Sam, Katie admitted that she got really annoyed with Sam at times, like when she would not shut up about Raimundo. Although, Katie was loyal enough to Sam, and because Nick was one of Raimundo's best friends from Brazil, she decided not to tell him about what Sam was planning on doing tonight.
A short redhead girl came over to the table that Omi, Clay and Dojo were sitting at and asked, "Excuse me, sorry to bother you, but my date just left, would either of you like to maybe dance?" she smiled at Omi, and Clay caught it.
"Why sure little lady, my friend Omi here probably would."
"Clay!" Omi then looked at the girl, "Ookay!" he got up and followed her to the dance floor, he was dazed by how beautiful she looked.
"Little Omi, growing up fast!" Dojo rubbed his eye and sniffled.
As a slow song came on Kimiko rested her head on Raimundo's chest, and saw Omi. "Omi found himself a little date."
When they turned Raimundo saw Omi and chuckled. "Guess so."
"Oh Rai, I never want this night to end!" she sigh and looked up into his emerald eyes.
"Niether do I Kim, you looked beautiful by the way."
She giggled, "Thank you!"
"Come on, I want to show you something!" he pulled apart and then took Kimiko's hand and went outside. They sat down by a fountain.
"What's wrong Rai?" Kimiko sounded alittle concerned.
"Kimiko, I want to give you something-" he got interrupted from someone yelling inside, and a little voice trying to speak.
They made out, "AN ANCIENT GUIDE TO FEMALES!" a girl screamed.
"Uhh-"
"I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!"
"Omi! I will be right back! Wait here!" Kimiko ran inside to help Omi.
Raimundo was waiting as he tried to make out what was being said. Then he heard footsteps.
"Sam?" Raimundo stood up and walked toward her.
"Raimundo! Oh my god I was so worried about you, I'm sorry about what happened! I didn't mean what I said about breaking up! I want to be with you again!"
"Sam, I have-" he got interupted.
Sam just pulled him into a kiss, and he couldn't seem to break it.
Just then they heard a gasp.
Muhahahha! That is the ultimate cliff hanger right there! Well, there's your chapter. Sorry if it seemed a little rushed, but I had to get to the dance quickly, and it would be way to long if I actually wrote out what happened at Raimundo's house. Please review and keep reading! Tell me what you think about what's happened. Thanks a million!
