I'm REALLY sucking at updating again!! After this I'm gonna work on my other stories, and I'm coming RIGHT back to this one!! I'm starting to bang my head on the keyboard trying to update, so, I've got this chapter planned out, and half of the next one. But I'm warning you, this whole chapter is just a big fluff-ball. Well, kinda.

Kimiko's POV

I started to open up my eyes, I was lying down on a bed, I guessed. I rubbed my eyes so I could open them better, but instead I had just gotten fur in my in them. I couldn't rub my left eye, and forgot about the Showdown with Chase. I looked down to see how bad my left arm was. WHERE IS IT?!!? OH MY KAMI THEY DECAPITATED MY ARM!!!

Oh, wait, it's underneath the blanket. Hehe, nevermind. I decided not to look at it, I'm already scared enough. I looked around my bed, and saw Omi sitting in a chair next to the bed, Clay at the foot of the bed, and Raimundo resting his head on the bed, fairly close to my head. They were all sleeping though. EEK OH MY KAMI, RAI LOOKS SO CUTE AS A FOX!! He's got those little ears, and the cute wittow paws, and that completely adorable tail. I just wanna cuddle with him all day!! Wait… I sure hope nobody has the MRC, or I'm dead. So what? I have a small crush on Raimundo, big deal.

I heard someone open up the door, and lied back down and pretended to be sleeping. I didn't hear footsteps, so I presumed it was Dojo. He climbed onto the bed and I felt him checking my arm out. He didn't gasp or anything, so it couldn't be that bad. I felt some weight lift up off of my bed.

"Huh? Oh, hey Dojo." That was Rai's voice.

"Hi Raimundo. Get enough sleep?" That was Dojo, I'd recognize that voice anywhere.

"Uh, yeah. So how's Kimi's arm?"

"Again with the puppy names, huh?"

"Shut up and talk."

"Uh, that didn't make much sense…"

"HOW is Kimiko's arm??" He said through obviously clenched teeth. Haha, those guys are so funny sometimes… and they're both cute. But, both in a different way.

"Actually it's doing pretty well, she's just lucky she's the Dragon of Fire."

"Huh?? Why??"

"Because, when a part of fire is missing, more replaces it. And it's the same with her. Chase's staff went right through her bone. Luckily, her body is quickly replacing it."

"Aww… poor Kim… I feel so bad that I- er, we weren't there to help her…" He lied his head back down onto the bed and started stroking my hair. There was silence for about 20 seconds until Dojo spoke up.

"You really do care about her, don't you?" Dojo asked.

"Well… if you promise not to tell anyone, then yeah. But I just can't help it. I'm practically in love with the girl." OH MY KAMI DID HE JUST—

"That's so sweet. I wish I had a girl that I could love like that. You two would be perfect for eachother." Aww… that's so cute!! Poor Dojo…

"Yeah. But I know for a fact she doesn't like me the one bit. Barely as a friend even." What?! How could he think that?!!

"Raimundo, you are so clueless on girls. I've been living for more than 1,500 years, ya think I'd know a thing or two about those perky little things they call humans??"

"Okay, so what can you tell me about Kim??"

"Well first of all, she doesn't hate you. She really likes you, I can tell you that." WHAT?!! WHY THAT LITTLE—

"Really?? Wow, is this embarrassing." Aww, that's so cute when he admits his feelings!!

"And some more, she obviously tells all of that to her best friend Keiko, and that's why she's on her PDA and Laptop so much." How does he know all of this?!

"And one last thing, I can tell you're gonna be embarrassed about this, but she's been listening the whole time. I can tell by her facial expressions." WHAT?!! OH CRAP!!!

"WHAT?!! OH CRAP!! YOU'RE KIDDING ME!!!!" He said lifting himself from my bed and grabbing for the doorhandle. TIME TO PLAY DUMB!!!

"Huh?? What's all the screaming about?? I have a serious headache now…" I said, and rubbing my eyes with my right paw this time, only to get more fur in them than before. I sure hope he buys it.

"And now she's playing dumb."

"What?? About what??"

"YOU WEREN'T LISTENING TO OUR CONVERSATION, WERE YOU?!!??!!!?!??!!!?!"

"What conversation??"

"She's still playing dumb."

"You're still playing dumb!!"

"You trust Dojo, why??"

"Because he's always right!! He's been alive for more than 1,500 years!!"

I secretly threw a tiny fireball at Dojo, and that shut him up.

"But, you know, I could be wrong. She might have just been having odd dreams and stuff."

"What were you guys talking abou-"

"NOTHING!!" He said and flew out the door. I just realized Omi and Clay have been up for a while.

"I am most confused."

"I'm as clueless as you are partner."

"Glad you're awake Kim!!" Dojo exclaimed.

"Thanks. And I mean it. For EVERYTHING today."

"Oh, yeah, too bad you had to light me on fire to get your point to me."

"No problem."

"Clay?" Omi was confused yet again.

"I'm still as clueless as a chicken being slaughtered and runnin' all round wit it's lil head off." There was silence after that one. Wow. Just, wow.

"Um…" I said. Suddenly the door opened and Rai came flying back into the room.

"I just realized that you're awake! I thought you'd never wake up!! I'd thought that you'd bleed to death or something!! Oh Kimi I'm so happy you're back!!!!!" He yelled, and wrapped himself around me. OW!!

"Ow, ooh, ouch, Rai? Please. Stop. Squeezing." He let go and I could breathe again, and most of all feel my left arm. And DANG did it hurt.

"Oh my goodness Kim I'm soooo sorry!" He apologized. The door opened once again and Master Fung stepped inside of the room.

"Hello, my young Maikai warriors." He said gleefully. I like the way he said 'Maikai'.

"Hey Fungmeister, what's up?" Said… take a guess.

"Greetings Raimundo. I see Kimiko is awake, are you feeling okay?" He asked me.

"Just swell. My arm feels like it's going through growing pains all over again, except 38 times worse."

"That should mean your arm is doing well."

"Greeaaattt" Dojo started shaking. Just what we need! Another Wu!

"Shen-Gong-Wu alert! It's a hot one!!" Dojo shouted as Omi brought out the scroll.

"It is called the Life Command. It allows the user to control any person of their choosing, and even kill them, allow a deceast person to come back to life, and even change a the target person into any object or animal they would like. Even an animal into a human. Such as… dragons? Dojo, would you like to be human?" Omi questioned

"No way, brother! Well, I've actually always wondered what it's like to have legs… maybe." Dojo replied

"So basically, it controls your whole life." Rai suggested.

"It wouldn't be so good it got into the hands of evil." Dojo said.

"Then lets ride on outta here!" Clay exclaimed.

"Stop being all slow like boys and come on!" I shouted, getting up, but feeling the pain in my arm become 60 times worse.

"Raimundo and Dojo, please get Kimiko's arm in a sling so you may go." Master Fung commanded. Dojo knew first aid, having dealt with kids and teens before, and Rai was expected to know it because he was Shoku Leader. Master Fung basically taught them both. Clay, Omi, and Master Fung left the room.

"I'll get the sling and you get her in a position to get it on, k?" Dojo said.

"Noo, YOU will use the Ruby of Ramses to get it, and I will put it on her, k?" Rai said, reminding Dojo that he was leader.

"Ruby of Ramses!" Dojo shouted, and a blue thing flew over to Rai, who caught it. He sat me up on the bed so my feet were hanging off the edge, then he carefully lifted my arm and put it in the sling, then hopped behind me on his knees, one on either side of me, and got it high up enough by looking over my shoulder as he put it on my arm. His face was awfully close to mine, and the position he was in, that was just creepy. That odd part about that is that we were on a bed… ANYWAYS!!! I was blushing furiously, and when he stood up, I could see that he was too.

"'k, let's get going then, shall we?" Rai said to me and Dojo. My face was burning, and was most probably as red as… well, fire. We all ran outside, but I couldn't run too fast, cause I couldn't move my arm too much. Dojo supersized, the boys hopped on, and Rai helped me up. He's so sweet!!

YAY I FINALLY updated!! I'm sooo sorry for the lack of chapters!! I'm too busy reading all of your awesome stories to bother about mine!! R&R people!!
