Okay…ummm…..I have nothing to say…well except my sister is really insane!

Chapter 5:
The showers were running, and the two stepped in.
"Kat, I still can't believe this is real," Krystal said from her shower.
"Neither do I…do you realize that it would totally suck if this was Xiaolin Showdown," Kat said, "I mean we would be fist fighting over Clay."
"Yeah, or we would both be trying to get Chase Young to return to the Xiaolin side," Krystal said.
"Yeah," Kat laughed, "but I can't believe…we did that."
"Girl, any fangirl would have kissed their fav character dead on the lips, it's just what you do," Krystal said.
"I know, but it was like…" Kat said.
"DON'T TELL ME, YOU HAVE NEVER KISSED ANYBODY BESIDES YOUR FAMILY BEFORE!" Krystal cried.
"You haven't either," Kat said.
"Oh yeah," she laughed.
"Krystal, do you think that we've forgotten something?" Kat asked. Krystal thought for a second, lathering the strawberries and cream shampoo in her hands and then massaging it deeply through her hair.
"I don't think so Kat…we have Spencer and our back packs with us…so what could be missing?" Krystal said, rinsing out her hair. Kat shrugged while massaging her Lavender and Lilac shampoo through her hair.
"Hey, Kat, do you think your sister will survive if they took Xiaolin Showdown away?" Krystal suddenly asked.
"I highly doubt that," Kat grinned.
-Back at the lair-
Leo sat on the couch, his mind kept on drifting to Krystal, and he wondered why she wouldn't get out of his mind, sure, she kissed him…and that she said she loved him…and that suddenly in some other dimension there are more girls who would do that…man Mikey has been affecting his brain lately.
He knew that Don couldn't think either, ever since they dropped those two, very confusing young ladies off at April's they hadn't been able to think straight…and it has been only…ten minutes since they got back.
"I can't think," he watched as Don sat down next to him, watching him battle with his mind.
"I know what you mean," Leo groaned, "why are these two so…"
"Amazing?" Don said.
"No, I can't describe it, it was like…" he couldn't think of anything to describe it. One: he kept on thinking about swapping spit with Krystal, and two: Mikey and Raph were laughing hysterically somewhere in a hidden spot, why were they laughing hysterically?
"Raph and Mike are reading some dairies, just to let you know," Micco walked to the kitchen, humming.
"Oh, great," Leo groaned, "I think I know who they belong to."
"Let me guess, Mikey's curiosity got the best of him," Don stated.
"Yeah," Leo sighed, "so, you want to take them back." He received no answer because Don was already rushing to where the laughter was heard, sighing, he followed.
Micco excited the kitchen with a glass of milk and a plate of Oreos (Mmm, Oreos) she listened to the yelling, giggling. About a minute later, Leo and Don were rushing out of said direction Leo holding a royal blue book with private written all over it, and Don holding a royal purple book with private all over it saying, "We'll be back later." Micco brought the milk to her lips and laughed, she bet that Mikey and Raph would have a couple of bruises.
She bit into an Oreo, watching as Raph angrily march to the dojo, and Mikey sitting next to her, covered in bruises.
"So, did you find out anything interesting?" Micco asked, chewing her Oreo.
"Yeah, how that Jack Spicer guy looks like," Mikey grinned, "man is he ugly."
"Anything else?" she asked. Mikey smirked, and whispered something in her ear, causing her eyes to widen, and a bright smile to grace her lips.
"Really?" her eyes twinkled.
-In the real world-
Michael sighed, they looked around the riverbank for the fifth time, and it was starting to get dark. Sarah was twitching beside him, he knew what she wanted, and she was hand cuffed to him for an odd reason.
"Stop twitching," he commented.
"I need Xiaolin Showdown or I will die a most painful death," her right eye twitched a couple of times.
"Okay, think about that Jeff guy," Michael said.
She snapped out of it, "Where is he?"
"I told you to think about him," he said, "do you think you are going to be alright on your own…well free from the hand cuffs?"
"Yes, please, this is kinda awkward…hehehe," she blushed as he freed her.
"Okay, your sister and Krystal are missing; we have to find them," Michael said, "you willing to look?"
"Fine," she shrugged, walking off and looking in a bush no one has even thought of looking in…there she found a white book with the golden letters, 'The Book of Prophecy' she picked up the book and handed it to her cousin.
"Gotta be a clue, you dumb ass," she said, "Did you even bother looking over there?"
"No," he said reading the book's title, "What's with the book?"
"It's a book of prophecy," she said.
He rolled his eyes, "there is no such thing…"
"There is too," she chirped, trying to open the book, "I CAN'T OPEN IT!"
"Let a man do it," he smirked, "a little girl can't do this."
"YOU ARE SUCH A JERK!" she shouted. He tried to open it, but found that he couldn't...
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" he cried.
"What's all the fuss about?" they looked at Krystal's mom.
"I found something," Sarah chirped.
"What did you find?" the woman hurried to their sides.
"The Book of Prophecy," she said in amazement.
-Back at April's apartment-
Spencer was Leo and Don's welcoming comity on getting to the window of the guest bedroom, the window was opened, and nobody was inside.
"Do you think we should just drop off their dairies and then leave?" Don asked.
"Yeah," Leo nodded, they were about to enter, but when they heard the door begin to open the hid in the shadows of the fire escape and peered in, to see Krystal and Kat in towels.
"Okay, my hair is a total wreck," Krystal said trying to run her fingers through her matted hair, "GRRRRRRRRRRR!"
"Maybe we should brush our hair, instead of using our fingers," Kat suggested, reaching into her bag.
"Yeah you're right," Krystal sighed.
Kat froze on touching something in her bag, and pulled out a photograph, and she stared at it.
"How did this get in my bag?" Kat asked.
"How did wha-" Krystal looked at the photo, and she felt tears well up in her eyes. Kat set the picture face down on the bed, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
"If this is some sick joke my little sister pulled, it isn't funny," Kat sniffed, "not funny at all."
"Your mom and my sister died, while saving us from some psycho robber. Why did it happen to them?" Krystal asked.
-Flashback-
Krystal and Kat were walking, with Kat's mom and Krystal's sister Val. They were at the mall, and just had finished shopping for the day…Sarah was at home watching Xiaolin Showdown.
"I can't believe Sarah would just skip a day like this," Kat sighed, "shopping with friends, and bright sunshine."
"Yeah," Krystal grinned, "and don't forget the good food."
"You got that right," Val grinned.
"Yeah, and it's awesome that the cool mom is with us," Krystal gave Kat's mom a hug.
"Yeah, I am awesome," the woman grinned, "but I love hanging out with you three…plus Sarah if she's here."
"Yeah, I know," Kat grinned.
"NO BODY MOVE!" the four froze, and looked at a man in clad black, covering his entire body, "NOW GIVE ME ALL YOUR MONEY AND MAYBE I'LL SPARE YOU!"
The four timidly handed him all the money he had, which didn't satisfy him.
"You filthy, good for nothin's, this is not enough," he glared at them, aiming the gun at Krystal, and cocked it. The moment he shot at Krystal, Val pushed her out of the way, and it hits her right shoulder, and died instantly.
Of course, Kat's mom, was the next to sacrifice herself; when he aimed the gun at the both of them, she was only severely injured, but would later die because of the wounds, about three days later.
-End Flashback-
"Do you remember, when they said, the bullet killed your sister instantly, and how we cried, for days, and it only got worse when they said my mom died in her sleep," Kat sniffed, "that stinkin' no good psycho was given the electric chair for all the crimes he did."
"I mean, they were the only ones who really understood us, I mean we were the losers in school," Krystal sighed, "and the way they told us our dreams were nothing."
"They said all our dreams were nothing," Kat said, "because, the only time we could truly speak out is when we sing together…no other time…and then when all those guys mocked us by asking us out, and then laughing at us whenever we said yes…that stung…and I wanted to crawl into my imaginary world to escape it all…"
"But it all came back to us, and bit us in the ass," Krystal frowned, "I mean, Beth, I bet the only reason why she tried to be our friend was because she felt so sorry for us."
"Then that one guy, I forgot his name…he called us insane because he read our dairies," Kat said, "he found out all our hopes, our dreams, and spread them out to everyone…being with the ones we loved most, and they mocked us for it."
"Yeah, they sent us to a psychologist, and he couldn't even help us," Krystal sighed, "I mean, remember when he told us…that if we ever wanted to be normal, to stop being friends."
"You have been the only real friend I ever had, Krystal," Kat smiled, "and I wouldn't give that up."
"Neither would I, Kat," the two girls hugged each other sniffing.
"Okay," the two looked up and watched as April enter the room, "I had to guess you sizes on everything, and I got some more toiletries…I hope that would be good enough."
"Yeah," Kat forced a smile, "we don't really mind if the clothes are a little too big."
"Well, okay," April laughed handing her the bag, and walking out.
"Could your smile have been any faker," Krystal mumbled.
"Sorry," Kat looked at her hands, twiddling her thumbs, "so you thinking what I'm thinking?"
"That your sister was insane," Krystal grinned.
"No," Kat shook her head.
"Oh, yeah, I think we should, I mean, the only people who really understood us, ar-re gone," Krystal said, her voice cracking, "we should…convince them to let us stay."
"Yeah," Kat said, reaching into the bag, pulling out two pairs of silk pajamas and undergarments. Krystal grabbed the royal blue ones, while Kat set the royal purple ones on the bed. The moment the two started taking off their towels, Leo and Don turned away, blushing.
Spencer meowed staring at the two, tilting his head.
"Spencer," he looked back at Krystal, and meowed.
"Get back in here," she said, "I don't need you running off." He reluctantly returned to the apartment into Krystal's open arms.
"Cool, these fit," Kat proclaimed, "now what do we do?"
"Sleep," Krystal said, "I mean this isn't one of those sleepovers where we get a giant pizza from Wal-Mart."
"Mmm, those pizzas are good," Kat laughed, "and they are so big that you defiantly have leftovers."
"Okay, enough about the food, maybe we should get some sleep, okay?" Krystal stretched, yawning.
"Yeah," Kat nodded, not really wanting to sleep yet, but was really tired, "but don't we have to write an entry in our dairies." Leo and Don looked at the books in their hands, and tensed.
"Nah lets wait till morning," Krystal said getting in the bed with the royal blue sheets.
"Yeah, okay," Kat yawned, "but I hope I remember what happened today."
"Just put your dream came true," Krystal yawned, "now shut off that light and go to sleep." Kat turned out the light, and clumsily walked to the other bed, and snuggled into the royal purple sheets, instantly drifting off.
"Hey, Kat are you asleep," Krystal mumbled. Receiving no answer, she fell asleep, dreaming about…WHO DO YOU THINK?
The two boys took that time to look at each other, both having sad faces on what they heard. They entered the room, and carefully putting the girls' dairies in their backpacks, but Don noticed the photo in Kat's bag, and pulled it out.
It was them, and two other people, a woman, and another girl their age, they looked slightly younger, they were doing a peace sign, and by the looks of it, they were in Sea World, because a dolphin was flipping over their heads.
"So that must be Kat's mother, and Krystal's sister," Leo whispered looking over his shoulder. Don nodded wanting to be silent.
Leo stood over Krystal's sleeping form, smiling sadly as Spencer decided 'Hey, look, a nice place to perch.' So Spencer was sitting on Leo's head.
"I thought we were treated badly," Don whispered, staring at Kat as she slept, "I mean they had no one but each other…I can't even picture these two as losers, heck the way that they were treated is even more inhuman than the way frogs get dissected."
Leo took Spencer off of his head, and walked over to Krystal's sleeping form, "I know what you mean…" he breathed in the sent of strawberries, he acted like it was a precious jewel that had been lost.
"I think that they're right…" Don finally raising his voice a bit, Leo looked at his braniac brother, "I think they SHOULD stay, I mean, we can't just send them back to a place where they aren't treated like they should be treated. I-just wouldn't be able to forgive myself if we caused them anymore pain." Leo nodded, stoking Krystal's hair, while Spencer jumped and licked Krystal's face.
A sudden whimper escaped her lips, "Val, please…don't…" beads of sweat rolled down her face.
"Mommy, please hold on, I'm here, just…hold…on," Kat sniffed, kicking off the covers that covered from before her waist up. Unsure what to do, Don and Leo began to whisper words of comfort to the two girls…minutes later they calmed.
A light glow illuminated the room; Kat and Krystal's right hands were glowing, and in one final big flash of light…there were strange markings on their hands. Krystal had the sun, and Kat had a crescent moon, both were a silver color.
The two boys only had one thing to say, "Wow."
April peaked into the room, and couldn't help the grin that began to creep upon her lips. Just seeing Leo and Don watching the two girls sleep made her wonder on if these two girls were affecting them. She closed the door quietly, and let out a small chuckle.
-Back in the real world-
Krystal's mom sat their staring at the book in absolute anger…no matter how they tried the book would just not open.
"C'mon, you book," she groaned, "tell me where my daughter and her friend are."
"You will find out in due time," she looked around, but then stared at the book.
"OPEN UP AND TELL ME WHERE THEY ARE!" she shrieked lunging at the book.
"You have to wait, like all the others in their families, I will only tell you then," she glared at the book.
"Here, or the entire family?" she asked, finally giving in.
EVIL BOOK! Hehehehe, sorry…couldn't help myself…PLEASE R&R!
