Hello everybody! Sorry for the wait. I had some writers block and I was wondering if I should do a St. Patrick's Day chapter. It would of had an evil leprechaun that wants it's gold back since certain greedy idiots found it in the woods while looking for a shen gong wu and decided to take it since no one was there. Actually, a few of the monks took some, Jack took some, and Chase took the last piece. The leprechaun got really mad and would do anything to get its' gold back, even kill. So the monks get the day off, go to a beach and get attacked by the leprechaun. Then, a shen gong wu reveals itself on the beach and Chase goes after it. One thing is, the monks had left but the leprechaun was still there. Being the mischievous little trickster he is, he disguises himself as one person in paticular and gets close to Chase and then trys to kill him for his gold piece. Thank god he sees through it. After, it goes to Jack for his gold, then Jack runs to the monks and they have to figure out what to do. Elektra, gives the gold to the leprechaun but realizes one piece is missing so he takes Elektra hostage and says she'll die if they don't give him back his last gold piece. What the heck, I'll do that chapter since I did one for the other holidays. So here's the belated St. Patrick's Day episode. Enjoy!
-------------------------------------------------------
(Heading toward the shen gong wu)
Rai: "Are we there yet?"
Dojo: "No. We haven't got any closer since you asked me half a second ago!"
Kimiko: "And besides, that's like the millionth time you've asked!"
Clay: "Actually, it's the fifty seventh."
Omi: "You have been keeping count?"
Elektra: "Look Rai, we'll get there when we get there."
Dojo: "Lucky for us, now we're there."
They landed on the ground in a woodsy area."
Dojo: "Alright, it's not too far from this spot so let's split up into two groups."
Rai, Clay, and Omi went one way and Elektra, Kimiko, and Dojo went in another.
Rai: "Is anyone as bored as me?"
Clay: "A little, it'd be nice if we got a break once in awhile."
Omi: "We have no time for breaks! We must train so we may defeat evil."
Rai: "Whatever. YAWN. Woah!" He tripped over something on the ground."
Clay: "You alright partner?"
Rai: "Yeah, I think I just tripped over a branch or something."
Omi: "That is no branch."
Rai: "Holy Canolli! It's a bag of gold!"
Omi: "Where's the holy canolli? I see no holy canolli."
Clay: "That's alot of gold."
Rai: "I know...finder's keepers."
Clay: "I don't think we should take it partner."
Rai: "Come on, no one's here and besides, think of all the things you could buy with it! All the farm equipment and ribs you could ever want."
Clay: "...Alright, since it doesn't seem to belong to anyone."
Omi: "This is not the proper behavior of a xiaolin monk."
Rai: "Ever here of finders keepers? It means we found it, we get to keep it."
Omi: "Really?"
Rai: "Of course. It's a rule we shouldn't break."
Omi: "Fine. I am not the one that breaks rules."
Rai: "Alright, but for now we won't tell anyone about it. Deal?"
Clay: "Deal."
Omi: "Deal."
They continued searching for the shen gong wu."
-----------------------------------------------
Jack: "Alright, search for the shen gong wu!" The robots started searching. "Hey where's Wuya?"
Robot: "She has the day off. She's busy working on a plan to take over the world."
Jack: "Oh yeah. Now where is that wu?...OW!" He tripped over a small bag. "Who put this here?" He opened it. "I hit the jackpot baby!" It was filled with gold. He took it, and searched in a different area.
-----------------------------------------------
Awhile later, Chase was looking for the shen gong wu. He thought it would be useful considering it could make an exact replica of an object. He saw something shimmer on the ground and walked toward it, thinking it was the shen gong wu. He picked it up and saw it was a gold coin. He kept it and continued searching.
-----------------------------------------------
Kimiko: "Found it!"
Elektra: "Good timing, the boys just got back."
Rai: "You found it?"
Kimiko: "Yep."
Elektra: "So how was your walk in the woods?"
Clay: "Why do you ask partner?"
Elektra: "Because you have smiles on your faces."
Omi: "We found a most wonderful thing! It was a...OW!" Rai elbowed him.
Rai: "It was a...a rock shaped like a chicken."
Elektra: "A rock...shaped like a chicken?"
Clay: "Yep, it's something you don't see everyday."
Dojo: "Alrighty then, let's get going."
They flew back to the temple. Jack saw them fly off and figured they got the shen gong wu so he left. Chase figured the same thing, and left as well.
------------------------------------------------
"So those be the ones that took me gold. Well then, I'll just have to pay each of 'em a visit."
The leprechaun took off into the shadows.
------------------------------------------------
Rai: "Seriously? You're not kidding?"
Master Fung: "No, I am not kidding."
Rai: "Alright! Freedom! We're free, we're free, YES!"
He gave him an angry look.
Rai: "I mean, thankyou. It's not like this place is a prison or anything."
Elektra: "You sure made it sound like one."
Rai: "Alright, who's up for the beach?"
Everyone agreed they would go to the beach for the day since they had it off.
Omi: "I can't believe we get a break."
Clay: "Me neither partner, but I'm not one to complain."
-------------------------------------------------
They landed on the beach and were just enjoying the sun, sand, and water. Yep. Swim, sunbathe, die.
Elektra was lying on a beach blanket, starting to doze off and listening to everyone else when she sensed something.
She sat up and looked over to see Rai and Clay splashing Omi, and Kimiko shaking her head disapprovingly.
There was a snapping sound in the forest. She turned her head and looked. Something was there.
She stood up and put her clothes over her bathing suit and went into the woods.
Kimiko: "Hey, where's Elektra going?"
Rai: "I don't know."
Elektra walked through the woods, looking around. She stopped by a rock and looked up into the trees. Bad idea.
Under the rock was a small space, small enough for a leprechaun to fit under.
She felt something touching her leg and jolted away from the rock. She fell onto the ground and noticed that whatever it was, had scraped her when she went foward.
A little man with red hair and was wearing all green came out from under the rock.
Elektra looked at it in disbelief. Is that a leprechaun?
"Hello dearie, I was wondering if you could help me."
"W..with what?"
"I'm looking for me gold. Do you know where it might be?"
"No I don't know where your gold is."
"LIAR!" It walked toward her and she backed up against a tree.
"Don't lie to me lass, now I want you to tell me where me gold is."
"I'm telling you, I don't know where your gold is!"
It walked closer to her and showed her his hand, which had sharp, long nails.
"You're going to tell me where me gold is..." He placed his hand on her chest with his claws preparing to dig into her heart. "If you don't I'll have to kill you."
Kimiko: "Arrow Sparrow!" She used it to hit the leprechaun. He disappeared. "Elektra, are you ok?"
"Yeah, I think so."
"You're bleeding. Did that thing do that to you?"
"Yeah, but I'm ok. Let's get out of here though." She stood up and they both headed back to the beach.
Elektra: "Guys! Get out of the water!"
Rai: "Oh come on! We're staying in!"
Kimiko: "Let me do this. SHARK! There's a shark in the water!"
They all started panicking and swam out of the water. Rai kept paddling through the sand and hit a rock.
Omi: "Where is the shark? I see no shark."
Elektra: "Because there isn't one."
All three of them shouted: "WHAT?"
Kimiko: "But we're leaving, there's this thing here that attacked Elektra."
Rai: "You sure you're not making this up too?"
Elektra: "We're not. See." She showed them the cut with 3 claw marks.
Omi: "Elektra, you are bleeding, we must go back to the temple ASP!"
Rai: "A, S, A, P."
They gathered their beach gear and headed to the temple.
--------------------------------------------
A shen gong wu had revealed itself. One that wasn't really useful. All it did was turn into a small crab that pinched your enemy. It was pretty lame, but Chase had nothing better to do so he went after it anyway. He was walking on the beach when something caught his eye. Elektra was lying in her bathing suit on the sand, looking at the sky. She looked over at him. "Hi."
"Elektra? What are you doing out here?"
"I'm taking a break from everything. Is that a problem?"
"No, but why would you be out here alone. Shouldn't the other monks be with you?"
She stood up and flipped her hair. "I got bored with them. Besides I wanted to talk to you alone."
"What did you want to talk about?"
She started walking over to him. "Us. I wanted to talk about us. After all, we're all alone. Nobody else is here."
"What about us?"
She put her hand on his cheek. "Well, I want to be with you."
He couldn't believe what she was saying.
"I've decided that I want to join you. Is that alright?"
"Of course it is, but why the sudden change?"
She put her arms around him. "Let's just say you have something I want." An evil grin spread across her face and her nails extended outward. She prepared to dig them directly through his back.
"I'm glad you took my offer, but it isn't exactly for you." He pushed her away and she landed on the ground.
Tears welled up in her eyes. "I thought you wanted me on your side!"
"Of course I'd want you on my side...if you were Elektra."
She had an angry expression on her face. "You think your so smart. I will get you!"
"Who are you and what do you want from me?"
She laughed evilly, then her voice changed into the leprechauns. "I want me gold!"
Chase took out the piece of gold and threw it on the ground. She or, he grabbed it.
"Now you have your gold, get out of my sight."
"I thank you lad, now I only have to get the rest of it." It disappeared and Chase left the beach.
----------------------------------------------
Jack was watching tv and eating popcorn.
"Don't go in the kitchen, he's going to kill you!" He ate his popcorn while watching a horror movie.
The lady on the tv opened the door and saw nothing, then a hand grabbed her from behind and she screamed.
At that moment, a hand grabbed him. "AAAHHHHHH!" He jumped out of the seat.
"Who are you? What are you? Are you some kind of gnome or dwarf?"
"I'm not a gnome, and I'm not a dwarf. I'm a leprechaun!"
"AAAHHH! What do you want from me?"
"Well, you better stop your screaming or I'll kill you!"
"AAAHHHH!" He ran up the stairs and out of the house, and hovered away with his hover bot."
"I'll get you! And your little...thingtoo!"
------------------------------------------------
Master Fung: "You should be alright now Elektra." Her cut was bandaged up.
Elektra: "Thank you Master Fung."
Clay: "So what exactly happened?"
Kimiko: "She got attacked by some...thing."
Omi: "This is most confusing. What sort of a thing?"
Elektra: "It was a..."
Dojo: "We have unwanted company outside." They all headed out to see Jack Spicer.
Rai: "What are you doing here?"
Jack: "Please! You have to help me! There's this thing after me!"
Clay: "Good luck fending for yourself."
Rai: "Yeah, this is probably just a trap so you can sneak in and get our wu."
Jack: "NO! Good idea, but NO! Elektra, you believe me, please let me stay with you!"
Rai: "Come on guys, let's leave the little boy who cried wolf to his stories."
Omi: "Where's the little boy who cried wolf?"
"Well, looks like all the thiefs are here."
Jack: "There it is!" He ran over to Elektra and held on to her for dear life.
Rai: "What the heck is that ugly little pigme thing?"
"I'm a leprechaun! I'll kill you all!"
Elektra: "Get into the temple now!" They all ran inside and boarded up the place.
Rai: "What the heck is that?"
Elektra: "It's a leprechaun. The thing that attacked me in the woods by the beach."
Jack: "It attacked me too. The thing scares me! He wants to kill me!"
Elektra: "We're not going to let it kill you."
Jack: "Oh thankyou Elektra!" He ran over to her and hugged her. "Thankyou! I knew I could count on you!"
Elektra: "Please let me go now." She pushed him away and looked through the blinds on the window.
Kimiko: "What's it doing out there?"
Elektra: "It's just sitting there. Staring at me."
It pointed at her than at himself, then blew a kiss toward her.
She closed the blinds. "That is so disgusting! I need to hurl."
Rai looked through the blinds. It sat there with an expression of hatred. It put his finger by his neck and moved it. "Kill."
Kimiko: "What does that thing want?"
Elektra: "Probably only one thing, the only thing it actually cares about, his gold."
The 4 boys had nervous expressions on their faces.
Clay: "What would it do to get its gold back?"
Elektra: "Anything. Disguise itself, follow you, even kill."
Omi: "I don't want to be killed!"
Jack: "Me neither!"
Kimiko: "Is there something you'd like to tell us?"
Rai: "We found some gold in the woods so we took it."
Elektra: "You...you...you idiots! Are you crazy? That thing could kill us all!"
Clay: "We're real sorry, we didn't know."
Omi took the bag and gave it to Elektra. She looked at Jack. "Man, I could've bought so much stuff." He gave the bag to her.
Kimiko: "Where are you going with the gold?"
Elektra: "I'm giving it back so he won't kill us!" She walked out the door. He was...gone.
"Look, I have your gold. I want you to take it and leave us all alone."
"What's this about me gold?" He appeared next to her and grabbed her wrist.
"I have your gold...here, take it." She kneeled down and put it on the ground.
"Me gold!" He took his free hand and grabbed the two bags and spilled them out.
"Well, thankyou lass." He kissed her on her cheek. She stood up and ran to the door where everyone else was, disgusted.
"...Wait a minute...I'm missing a piece."
Elektra: "But I thought that..."
"Give me me gold piece!"
Rai: "But we don't have it!"
Leprechaun: "Well you better go and find it...cause if you don't..." Elektra appeared next to him and he grabbed her wrist. "She dies." They both disappeared.
--------------------------------------------
Chase got there awhile after Elektra was taken.
Omi: "What are you doing here?
Chase: "I am here to warn you, there is a leprechuan looking..."
Rai: "Looking for his gold. We know. We gave him all his gold and he's still not happy."
Chase: "You gave him all of his gold back?"
Clay: "Yep, he says there's one piece miss'in but we gave him all of it."
Kimiko: "We have to find that piece though."
Rai: "Maybe he'll realize he was wrong, then he'll give Elektra back to us."
Chase: "He took Elektra?"
Omi: "Yes, and he says if we do not return his piece of gold, she will die."
Rai: "Yeah, but when he realizes he's wrong, we'll get her back."
Chase: "Do you know just how deadly those things are? He won't ever give her back! He could torture her, kill her, or do anything else to her. He doesn't care about anything besides his gold."
Omi: "But we gave him all of his gold."
Chase: "...I have an idea. Give me the shen gong wu that makes replicas of objects."
----------------------------------------------
He used the shen gong wu to make a replica of the gold coin. He went back into the forest in search of the leprechaun. He found its' "house" which was a tree. The tree opened and he walked in.
leprechaun: "Oh it's you, what do you want?"
"I have your gold, now tell me where Elektra is."
"Well, let's just say her blood smells as good as it tastes."
"You...you didn't. If you...I'll kill you!"
"Hold on lad, It was a trick. I didn't kill her...yet. But I will say, she has a very rare blood type. One in a million that lass."
"Where is she?"
"Are you sure you want to see her?"
"Yes. Now show me where she is." He said through gritted teeth.
"All right then." He walked over to small table where there was a salt shaker on it. "There she is."
"Dont' play tricks with me! Show me where she is!"
"You're no fun lad." He took a white cloth, then placed it on top of the salt shaker. He pressed down on it until the cloth was against the table. He pulled away and the salt shaker was gone. He put the cloth flat on the table, then picked it up from the center, and a small cage appeared, with Elektra lying unconsious inside.
"What did you do to her?"
"Let's just say, she wasn't to cooperative. I thought I'd shrink her down to size." He started laughing.
"How...how dare you! How dare you do that to her!"
"I wanted me gold, I'd do anything for it."
"You greedy little midget!"
"I'm not the only greedy one, humans are even greedier, and you're no different. You're obsessed with treasure like me!"
"I am not obsessed with treasure. Those trinkets mean nothing to me."
"Oh, but not all treasure is gold. Your treasure happens to be a trinket with blue eyes and black hair with red streaks. I must say, you have a fine gem. Your just as greedy with her, as any other man would be with their treasure. Admit it, you would never let anyone touch her except you. If you could, you probably wouldn't even let anyone lay eyes on her except you."
"Just let her go."
"Not until I get me gold. I get me gold, and your lass will be free."
"You want your gold so badly?" He took the piece. "Then go get it." He threw it. The leprechaun ran after it and Chase grabbed the cage and ran out the door, and went to his lair.
--------------------------------------------
He carefully took her out of the cage and held her in his hand. She couldn't be any more than six inches tall. He gently placed her on a pillow on a table and walked away.
Elektra woke up awhile later. She stood up, but then instantly fell back down onto the pillow. She sat on her knees and looked around. It certainly didn't look like the leprechauns home, if you could call it a home. That was one place she defiinately didn't want to go back to. She crawled off the pillow and walked around, staring at how huge the place looked. She was looking upward and didn't notice the edge of the table. She walked right off the edge. "AAAHHH!" Chase caught her in his hand, before she hit the ground. She looked up at him.
"What? What the...what happened? Did everything suddenly grow like a hundred feet tall?" She shouted.
"No, you just shrunk down to six inches tall."
She stared blankly at him. "I'm...I'm...TINY!"
He placed her back on the table.
"Wait a minute, how did you find me?"
"I knew the leprechaun took you, so I went after him."
"You gave him back his gold?"
"Not exactly."
"What do you mean not exactly?"
"I made a replica of the gold coin, and tricked him into thinking it was the real one."
She walked over to the edge of the table and sat down.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm leaving, that's what I'm doing."
"And where, may I ask are you going?"
"I'm going back to the temple. That thing will kill them after he finds out that isn't his gold." She slided down the table leg and started walking to the stairs. She noticed there were like a thousand stairs, each about as tall as her.
"You're not going anywhere, you're six inches tall."
"I have to do something!" She was preparing to start the journey of a thousand steps.
Chase grabbed her and picked her up. "Let me go!" She pounded her fists on his hand, which wasn't effective.
"You're not going anywhere."
"Please just let me go! You're squishing me!"
He loosened his grip on her. He hadn't realized how hard he was gripping her.
"What am I going to do? I'm as small as a doll!"
"We'll fix this...somehow." He put her back on the table.
"But I don't even know how to get back to my normal size!" She started crying. "By now that thing could've killed everyone."
A look of sadness spread across his face. "Fine, I'll take you back to the temple."
She looked up at him. "Really?" He nodded. "Thankyou!" She went to hug him, then remembered her size.
They both headed to the temple.
---------------------------------------------
Kimiko: "Is that thing still out there?"
Rai: "Yep, and it's sharpening its claws...wait a minute, what's Chase doing here?"
leprechaun: "Well, it's the trickster. Where's me gold?" It shouted.
Chase: "We don't have it."
leprechaun: "Well, I see your lass is still a bit short." He laughed.
Chase: "Your a leprechaun, you like making deals and bargaining."
"You got me attention lad, what did you have in mind?"
"A showdown. If I win you are banished and never allowed to return. And you return Elektra back to her regular size."
"But if I win, I get all your treasure and you all die. And when I say all your treasure, I mean the lass too."
"I agree. A bargain?" They shook hands. "A bargain, lad."
Dojo: "A regular showdown, haven't seen one of those in a while."
The environment changed into more of a woodsy environment. Everyone that was watching were standing on a seperate piece of land, above the battle.
leprechaun: "But just so we don't run into any problems like last time..." A cage formed around Elektra, made out of vines with thorns that was hovering in the air. "I'll make sure she can't escape."
Rai: "Elektra?"
Clay: "You're like six inches tall!"
Elektra: "I didn't notice."
leprechaun/Chase: "Gong ye tan pie!" The leprechaun instantly disappeared then reappeared behind him and kicked him.
Kimiko: "Isn't that cheating?"
"We're on my turf now, anything goes. And did I mention, you get one wish to use throughout the whole game. Use it wisely though." The leprechaun kept disappearing and reappearing. Chase started to tire out. He wasn't sure how long it was going on for.
"Gett'n tired yet lad?" He kicked him. "I can do this for hours on end!"
Elektra: "Wait a minute, I know what he can do. Chase! Leprechauns can't help but...HM!" The leprechaun wished she would zip her lips and it actually happened. She couldn't unzip it.
"I may have used up me wish, but it was worth it." He continued his trick of illusion.
'Leprechauns...they can't help but...they can't help but...shine shoes. They love shining shoes. That's it!'
"Time for my wish...I wish for...a box of shoes."
Everyone stared blankly at him. A box full of shoes appeared infront of him. He grabbed a bunch and threw them at the leprechaun. he ran over to each one and started shining them with his handkerchief.
"Good riddens midget." He attacked him by using a variety of kicks and punches and won. "You remember our deal, it's time you left."
"NO! This isn't possible! Curse you! Curse..." He disappeared. The land went back to normal and the cage around Elektra disappeared and she went back to her normal size.
Jack: "Hey look, I found a gold coin. It was in my pocket the whole time...uh oh." The 4 monks started attacking him.
Elektra ran over to Chase and hugged him. "Thankyou so much."
"I officially hate leprechauns now." He left.
------------------------------------------------
Omi: "Let's promise never to take anything that doesn't belong to us ever again. They all agreed.
It would've been nice to have a happy ending. Unfortunately, it wasn't all that happy. Wuya had been watching the battle since it first started and was shocked to see how Chase had actually allowed Elektra to hug him. Then she started thinking about the fact that one of the monks had even said they used to be friends. She began to realize something, and a few thoughts popped into her head.
-------------------------------------------------
Sorry it took so long. I wasn't sure if I should do a chapter for St. Patrick's Day, then I started to get writer's block, and I got really busy. Hopefully I'll be able to post the next chapter Friday or Saturday. But because of the delay, I have a present for you. I am going to tell you about the next chapter. It's going to be called either Captured by the Enemy, Captured by the Idiot, or Captured by the Idiot Enemy. I'm not sure yet, but basically Elektra gets kidnapped by, you guessed it, Jack. She's stuck at his house and can't escape. She sits there while he talks, and talks, she wakes up and he's still talking! It drives her nuts and of course, as you people probably know, he has a huge crush on her. He sets up a special dinner and everything. Then, he starts asking questions that make Elektra wonder how he knows certain things, especially since he asks why she likes Chase and all kinds of other things. Anyway, once again, Sorry! But please, please! review on your way out! Goodbye, and don't steal a leprechauns gold. After reading this chapter, I hope you all learned a valuable lesson.
