The next day Liu Kang and Kung Lao spent the day trying to teach their class a special technique called the windmill kick. Luckily this class was more skilled and disciplined than the first class. Kung Lao saw Raiden appear and lightly tapped Liu on the shoulder. He turned to see Raiden approaching them.

"Alright class! Take a five minute break!" Liu Kang said.

"Welcome master Raiden. Are you here to monitor the class?" Kung Lao asked.

"You'd want that wouldn't you? Not after first monsters. Anyway, I came here to give you a message, or rather a reminder Kung Lao."

"What is it?" Kung Lao asked.

"Rebecca asked me to remind you that you're to help take care of Sebastian while she makes dinner."

Kung Lao slapped his forehead. "That's right! I almost forgot! How'd she know I would?"

"One she knows you, and two, she must be psychic." Raiden said.

"How would you know?" Liu asked.

"You didn't think I would learn nothing after knowing Sonya and Kitana for so long?" Raiden said.

"Good point." Liu said.

Raiden turned his attention to the students. "So this is your class? They seem more promising than the last."

"Yes by a lot, thankfully." Kung Lao said.

"I wonder if I do it maybe they can…"Raiden began but was cut off by Liu Kang.

"Don't even think about it, Raiden." He said.

Raiden turned innocently to him. "What?"

"You know what. You're not doing the same thing you did last time."

"It was just a friendly game of dodge the lightning bolt." He said.

"A friendly game, you almost fried the first class!" Kung Lao said.

"Well they deserved it! Someone threw a steel toe shoe so I thought with that kind of aim they would at least have the decent reflex."

"Apparently not because your lightnings bolt almost hit two people." Kung Lao said.

"I did aim to miss."

"Well you didn't aim very well." Liu Kang said.

"Alright, moving on, you won't forget, right Kung Lao?" Raiden asked.

Kung Lao nodded. "I won't, I promise."

"Good because Rebecca seems to be in a bad mood lately."

"It wasn't me. I didn't get her into a bad mood." Kung Lao said.

"Well you can deal with it because when I agreed to become protector of Earthrealm, I didn't agree to have mortals scold at me or push me around." He disappeared in a flash of light.

"He's right though. She has been in a bad mood ever since she woke up." Kung Lao said.

"So why do I have this feeling it's something I've dealt with before?

"Let's finish up the day. We still have twenty minutes left."

The class was dismissed at three o'clock and Kung Lao didn't get home until three thirty. He walked inside too find all was quiet. That still didn't stop him from letting his guard down. For all he knew Sebastian could come running from a corner any second. He walked into the living room where Rebecca greeted him.

"Welcome home." She said hugging him. "Did you have a good day?"

"Yes it went well thank you." He looked around the room cautiously.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm just wondering where Sebastian is incase he attempts a surprise attack.

Rebecca laughed. "You shaolin monks don't let your guard down for a second do you?"

"We can't, or else an enemy may attack us from behind, such as a young boy."

She led him towards the sliding glass door in the kitchen where he could see Sebastian kicking the ball high in the air and catching it. He saw Kung Lao and threw his ball on the ground and ran to him. Rebecca had to open the sliding glass door so he wouldn't run face first into the door.

"Uncle Kung Lao!" He said lunging at him.

Kung Lao caught him half surprised. "How are you Sebastian?"

"I'm great! Aunty Rebecca's been playing with me all day! But I wanna do something with you now!" He said with a wide smile on his face.

"Good. While you two play I'll prepare dinner."

"What are we having?" Kung Lao asked.

"We're having roast tonight. Sonya called before you got home. They're going to be a little late. They won't be picking Sebastian up until eight o'clock."

"That's fine. I'm going to take Sebastian to the park."

"Be back by six."

Kung Lao waved his hand as he and Sebastian walked out of the door.

It took them ten minutes to reach the park. It would have taken five minutes if Sebastian hadn't chased every rabbit he saw.

"I wanna play on the swing!" Sebastian said running to the lowest seat he could reach.

"Do you want me to push you?"

"Yes!"

"Ok here we go." Kung Lao gently pushed Sebastian from behind.

The child howled with laughter with every push that only took him up to Kung Lao's knees.

"Faster!" Sebastian yelled.

Kung Lao pushed him up to his knees. Sebastian laughed louder. Kung Lao couldn't help but grin at the young boy. Sebastian turned to his left and saw another rabbit.

"Bunny!" He jumping off the swing and ran the fastest he could trying to catch the fleeing hare.

Sebastian come back…" He grunted in pain and crouched low as the swing hit him in the groin.

He tried to stand up but it was difficult with the throbbing pain. He managed to shake it off after a moment and caught Sebastian before he could chase the hare into the prickly bush.

"Don't ever run off like that again ok? Something bad could have happened to you."

"Ok." Sebastian said.

"Now let's go over to the slides, ok?"

For the next half hour Kung Lao watched Sebastian go down the slide trying to forget about the pain in his groin.

'Now t his is something I can handle' He thought calmly to himself. He let his mind wander for a few minutes before realizing that it was ten to six. He gasped as he ran over to the slide.

"Sebastian! It's time to go!" He called.

"Aw can't I slide down one more time?" Sebastian whined.

"Now we're gong to be late now let's go please."

"Ok." He said as he dragged his feet over to Kung Lao.

Together they sped walked home. Sebastian didn't have a choice in the matter. He had to in order to walk beside Kung Lao. They arrived home five minutes past six.

"What took you two so long?" Rebecca asked.

"Well to be honest we lost track of time. We went from the swings to the slides, and one thing led to another."

Rebecca smiled as she attended back to the food in the kitchen. Kung Lao got Sebastian to help him set the table before sitting down for dinner. Kung Lao winced slightly as he sat down.

"What's wrong, Kung Lao?" Rebecca asked.

"Oh it's nothing. I just strained a muscle, that's all." He replied, which was only half of the truth.
