Okay, I felt really bad about the last chapter. It was kinda sad. So this one's about Raimundo and Kimiko. Too bad I can't end it here. But I haven't explained everything yet. So this one is about RaiKim and it's gonna be very kawii and then I'm gonna go back and finish explaining everything else...also in this chapter. 'Kay, here ya go!

Chapter 7: Twists and turns

"Kimiko!! Please stop running!" Raimundo grabbed Kimiko's arm.

"What?!" Kimiko yelled, tears running down her cheeks.

"This isn't some fairy tale. I'm not some knight. But c'mon. Please listen!" Raimundo looked at her desprately.

Kimiko stopped crying. She looked at him with hopeful eyes.

"I wasn't trying to be so mean to you. I hadn't seen you in forever and I still wasn't sure how I felt about you. So much has happened! I couldn't realize it then, not like I can now. I love you!" Raimundo pulled Kimiko into a hug.

"Uh..." Shocked by this sudden turn of events, Kimiko buried her face in Raimundo's chest. "Finally..." She whispered. "I love you, too."

Feeling another presence behind him, Raimundo spun around.

"Heartwarming, really." Jack stood there, Emily clinging to his arm and Rebecca standing next to them with her arms crossed.

"What do you want, Jack?" Raimundo asked irratably.

"Oh nothing. I just want to watch the show." Jack said sarcastically.

"C'mon. What do you really want?" Kimiko looked over at Jack and the girls.

"Ah. At this point, it's pointless. You wouldn't particularlly care anyway." Jack stuffed his hands into his pockets.

"Does it involve our wu? Because then I'm interested. You already got your girlfriend to steal half of the wu, you plannin' on stealing the other half?" Raimundo tested.

Suddenly Chase landed behind Kimiko, Wuya close behind. "Please Raimundo, that's just plain pathetic. Falling into a girls trap?" Chase pried.

"What do you want, lizard breath?" Raimundo hissed.

Chase shot some blue flames at Raimundo, sending him flying back. Kimiko got ready to fight. But then she realized something, she was freaking strong, but she couldn't take on everyone if Raimundo got knocked out. She ran to get help.

At first Raimundo felt betrayed by Kimiko's retreating, but then he realized what she was thinking and smirked. "Came to fight, huh?" Raimundo stood up and got into his fighting position.

"Yeah..." Jack said, kicking Raimundo in the back.

Wuya's hands lit up in green flames. She tossed the flames at Raimundo, practically lighting him up in green flames.

After getting beat several times by everyone, the all attacked at the same time, causing an explosion. Raimundo's screams were heard all around the temple.

Kimiko, Clay and Omi came to the scene...a little too late.

No. He doesn't die. Just a little beat up...and a torn pride. I wanted to put out a chapter before I couldn't get on anymore. So, here it is. Kinda cheesey with Rai and Kim. But they finally told eachother. And sorry it's so short. Oh! Wait till one of the last chapters. I have some surprises in store there. But what do you think about this one? Twisted it up a bit, huh? Well, please review!!!
