Chapter 5: Rai and Kim's hearts are breaking

Disclaimer: I don't own ANYTHING!!! Not X.S., not Naruto, not F.B...yeah, you get it.

Kimiko pulled out the book. She decided to read a few more poems before she gave the book back.

Left behind

Dropped

Left behind

No one cares

No one wonders

Just left behind

Without question

Fallen

Hit hard

No one cares

No one wonders

Just fallen hard

Without question

Without falter

Without hesitation, I reach out

But all I grab is air

Fallen

Now...

I wish for death

Kimiko gasped. She quickly checked the date. It was before he came back to the temple. She let out a sigh of relief.

"Kimiko?" The voice chilled her to the bone, the vemom in the words begging for entrance into her blood to chill it, to stop it from flowing. She froze.

----------------------------

Rebecca looked at Matt increadiously. "You're insane. This will never work. Do you take Chase as a fool?"

Matt looked up at her, "No, I think him to be very smart. But this is the plan he won't expect. If I try something better, he'll catch on before I can start. But if I do this one, he'll never know. He's expecting something detailed and elaborate."

"If you really think that's going to work..." Rebecca turned her head. "Uh...Where's Emily?"

The two froze.

"Crap," They said in usion, scrambling to get up.

-----On the balcony of the house, Emily's room------

"Oh, Jack! I miss you so much!! I'm so sorry I left you!" Emily cried...no literally. She was crying.

"Hn," Came her reply, convincing her Jack was mad.

"Can I do anything to make you love me still?" Emily smiled weakly.

"I already love you," Jack replied irratably.

"So are you still mad at me?" Emily asked hopefully.

"Good God, woman! No! But I'll be mad if you don't leave me alone to work on my evil plans!!" Jack screamed.

"Oh. Okay! Bye Jackey!!!" Emily grinned, hanging up her phone. Won't Jack be suprised when I come visit him soon!?! Her mournful mood was long forgotten.

"Emily, what are you doing?" Rebecca was in the doorway of the balcony. Matt behind her.

"I was just talking to Jack. He says he still loves me and isn't mad at me, isn't that great?!" Emily grinned, her voice carrying an annoyingly happy tone.

"Uh...You're still thinking about leaving early, aren't you?" Rebecca and Matt both sweatdropped before Matt spoke up.

"Nope. I am leaving early!!" Emily squealed with delight.

Matt and Rebecca's faces practically turned red with rage.

"We told you already!! You can't leave yet!!!" Rebecca screamed, one fist in the air now.

Matt turned around, running downstairs.

"Uh...huh?" Rebecca and Emily turned to watch Matt leave.

"We have a plane to catch, idiots!!!" Matt called up the stairs.

"I am so lost...Why won't he ever tell me anything important anymore?" Rebecca wandered down the stairs.

Clay sat there, completely stunned. "Wait, so, everyone's after this so called secret? It's not just a secret, right? It's an object."

"Um...Well, maybe...er...yeah. It's an object," Xian-Li gave up, hanging her head.

"Is it a Shen Gong Wu?" Omi asked excitably, on the edge of her seat.

"Now that's pushing it!" Xian-Li smiled mischeiviously. She froze, getting a few odd looks. "Where are your teamates?"

"Um, I am not sure. They should be here soon," Omi fidgetted with his fingers.

"They better hurry," Xian-Li turned around, Clay and Omi as well, to see a shadowed figure at the doorway. And it wasn't Master Fung.

----

"Kimiko? You...You have my book? And...you're reading it!" Raimundo was stunned, he'd been in mass panic for the last few hours and he finds his fiance reading his precious poem book.

"No...I found it and I picked it up, but it fell and..." Kimiko paused, looking at Raimundo. She felt really guilty when she saw tears in his eyes.

Raimundo silently went up to her and grabbed the book out of her hands gentely. Then whispered in her ear as he walked past, "I'm sorry, Kimiko."

Kimiko stood there, shocked, as Raimundo left the room with a very depressing aura. She sighed as she cupped her face in her hands. I betrayed his trust! Now how will he forgive me?

----

(Timeskip)

Raimundo and Kimiko filed onto the private jet with a few bags. Kimiko hadn't seen Raimundo smile since this morning, she was hoping that he wouldn't break-up with her.

Raimundo sat down a few seats behind Kimiko. I'm sorry, Kimiko, I just can't...I can't stand to be by you right now. I can't believe that...

Kimiko sighed, putting her chin in her hand, leaning on the windowsill, watching the ground get smaller until all she saw was white, wispy clouds. I just want to understand you a bit more, Rai. What's so bad about that?

"I know they are coming. So why aren't they here yet?!" Chase paced his throne room.

"Chase, let them take their time. It will only increase our chances of winning," Wuya smirked, choosing her words carefully.

Chase stopped and looked at his wife. "I suppose you're right."

Yes! I finally updated!!

My wonderful reviewers:

Heylin-Shadow: Hm...I guess ranting is always good. It didn't bug me because I rant a lot too...I just haven't in this story...yet...

Glad you liked Matt and his band. It was kinda fun to write because I wanted to introduce more people. Well, too bad I have to keep this on a Xiaolin Showdown base...If I didn't have to, Rai and the gang may not even exist in either of the stories.

Thanks for the compliment about the story being so great. I pride myself in being such a great writer. People keep telling me I'm good. I still don't think I'm as great as some people. I guess I just have to practice ACTUALLY planning out my plots a bit more...

rAiKiMlOver455673: Um...Well, I like making the hot guys poets. It just fits them.

Well, I planned them to have somewhat the same personality, just so they would be a good couple...oops. Spoiler...

I wasn't talking about Rai. Sorry if I made that unclear...I was actually talking about his dad. I guess his dad kinda was mental at that...

2hyper4life: I would be scared if they did turn it into a Soap Opera!!! It seems like it could be though...I mean with all the fighting and then getting together, the jelousy, the break-ups and the get back togethers, and finally all the fluffiness...OMG!!! I wrote a Soap Opera!! I didn't mean to!!!

I'm always concerned... . ' People say it's a good trait...

XiaolinFireGirl: Woo...People love the poet Rai. Glad. Well, for a cartoon character...I wonder how many fangirls he has...I can name about 5 off the top of my head, you being one of them.

Did you suddenly gain superpowers? Because I think that's the only way you could fufill that dream...

Yeah! I got people who still love this story! Um...people who love long chapters...please don't kill me. I was on writers block (I kinda still am...) but I wanted to get this chapter out. Well, okay.

Um...For those of you who didn't catch on. Raimundo's poetry book is like his diary. He turns his feelings into metaphors and poems and it became very special and sacred to him.

And lastly, please review!! 25 reviews at the highest?
