??? POV

I carefully made my way up the steps of the old hill. In the distance I could see a humble temple resting at the top. It brought back wonderful memories of when I was younger, fighting alongside the dragons. Now, I was standing at the bottom of the nostalgic hill getting ready to teach yet another student. A smile curled my lips, and I continued to make my way upwards.

RAIMUNDO'S POV

I was sitting in an old cherry blossom tree that was planted out in the front court yard watching Manuela and Anna spar against each other. Anna was going easy on Manuela, I could tell. It was probably because my mother was just a few feet away watching her every movements. It bugged me at how much my mother hated Anna.

"Anna is a good, caring person, and I lover her! Why can't you accept that?" I had asked my mom, but she just said that Anna wasn't good enough for me. The wind picked up, and I let my gaze drift over to the gate just as someone was walking onto the temple grounds.

"Who could that be?" I heard Clay ask Kimiko from under the tree. I too wondered just who the hell was she? I looked over and saw that she had a complexion that was a little darker than mine, and her hazel eyes shone in the sunlight. Her chocolate brown hair was fluttering ever so gently to the side.

"Master Miyako!" Manuela yelled and ran towards the strange woman just as Anna was trying to give her a round house kick to the gut. Anna went flying off balance and once again into the koi pond.

"Ow." she squeaked before standing up and pulling a fish out of her back pocket. I ran over to her and helped her up, and she gave me a weak smile and thanks.

"Oh RAIMUNDITO!!! Come over here sweetie and meet your fiance's new teacher." My mother called, and I growled a bit.

"SHE IS NOT MY FIANC-" my mouth was silenced by Anna giving me the best open mouthed kiss ever. She forced her tongue into my mouth and took complete control. My hands wandered down her waistline, and I started to nip at her lips.

"Oh, Raimundo!" Manuela's sudden shot, made me pull away from Anna to give her a very annoyed look.

"What." I snapped.

"Please come meet Master Miyako! She's gonna teach me how to fight! Won't that be good Rai-Rai?" Manuela said. I cringed a bit when she used the nickname that Anna had given me.

"Don't call me that." I growled, and my 'fiance' wrapped her arms around me. I felt Anna's icy stare, but what could I do? My mother was giving me a glare of her own, and I was completely helpless.

"Why not?" Manuela pouted. "We are gonna be married, so don't you think that it will be cute if I call you that?"

"First off, we are not getting married. Second off, only Anna can call me Rai-Rai. And third off, it wouldn't be cute if you called me that, it would just be weird." I snarled, and it looked as if Manuela was about to cry. She shoved me away from her and ran into the temple. Anna came bounding over to me, and took over Manuela's place with her arms wrapped around my neck.

"Thanks for sticking up for me." She said before licking my cheek. I blushed a bit, but a chill ran up my spine when Anna blew in my ear.

"Not now...people are watching...let's go to our room..." I said with heavy breaths as Anna started to pass her hand over my stomach and nip at the skin around my neck.

"Later." She said simply. "But only if you're good." A smirk crossed my lips.

"Okay." I said slyly. "I'll be sure to be extra good...just for you."

MANUELA'S POV

Things were getting bad. My Raimundo was still fawning over that stupid bitch from Georgia. There was no way she could ever make him happy. She wasn't even from Brazil! How in the world would she know any of Raimundo's favorite foods or anything? I guess I need to call in a favor. I grabbed my cell phone and dialed in the new number I had learned.

"Hello?" came a voice after a while.

"Jack?" I asked sweetly. I heard him growl on the other end.

"You again? What the hell do you want now?" he snarled through the phone. I giggled a little before continuing my conversation.

"Actually, I want to meet you. I am in need of some…evil assistance, and you are just the man to do it."

FF TO NIGHT

FF to night

I quickly slipped through the shadows casted on the ground from the temple. I managed to make my way to the gate at the start of these sacred grounds. Once outside, I looked to the sky for any sign of my new friend. Out in the distance, a small flying thing made its way towards me. Unflinching and unmoving, I continued to watched as the shape of an older boy came into sight. His red hair shone dimly in the moonlight, and his pale face was shadowed to look darker than what it should be.

"Jack Spicer?" I asked cautiously. The boy smirked, and his dull red eyes had a shimmer of old malevolence.

"At your service."
