Ohhhkay, what ever, 18 is good, but I'm not too impressed… 981 hits, but 18 reviews?.. Thanks a lot, that really inspires a person… But, I guess I should be happy I have at least some fans.

I do not own Xiaolin Showdown. I own Violet, and The Boomarang Wu.

In the story, It's been June all along, I think I put that once, but I'm just clarifying it…Its kinda confusing with the whole 'two stories' going at once thing with RaiKim and JackViolet, so, Jack and Violet have known each other for about 2 weeks now.

PLEASE REVIEW!

-----

Juue, 24, 9:53pm, the same day as the whole, 'Jack's mom' conflict. (Which was at around 11:00am)

Kimiko screamed as she pounded her fists on the kitchen table her and the other monks where eating at. "Kimiko," Omi said, gently, "I know you must feel very bad, but we must remember 'great opportunity doesn't come easily, but when it does…"

"..It comes in great quantity." A deeper voice finished. Master Fung entered the room.

"Yes, I know.." Kimiko's voice, muffled from her head leaning in her arms on the table, said, "It just-" She lifted her head up, "-twice?? By an AMMATURE!" Rai rubbed her arm supportively, "It's just luck. Jack's lucky to have her on the heylin side rather than the Xiaolin. Master Fung nodded slightly, "Lucky indeed, she does seem rather experienced."

Clay ate his late dinner, waiting to hear what Master Fung had to say. He continued, "Acrobatic, and smart. A very deadly combo. But, those who stand for nothing, fall for anything…" He walked out of the room.

Kimiko turned her head to her left and looked at the arm Rai had so nicely rubbed, as she whispered, "…every one has a weakness."

Rai interrupted her mad train of thoughts, "Ummh, Kim? Can I talk to you outside for a sec…"

She looked up at him with concern in her eyes, "..uhh, yea. Surrre." She held one arm in her hand, "I'll meet you out in the garden…"

He nodded, heading out the door with a slight smile on his face. She knew what this was all about. She sighed as she went up to her room, which, by the way, had been upgraded since Rai became leader. It was actually a decent room. More privacy was needed when the Monks got older. She sighed a happy sigh. This is it.. he's going to ask me. He's going to ask me to be with him forever.

She picked up her iPod, slipping her earphones in, and turning it up loud enough she didn't hear herself singing.

Mmmmm.. mmm..

Ever since I was a baby girl I had a dream
Cinderella theme,
Crazy as it seems
Always knew that deep inside that there would come that day
But I would have to wait
Make so many mistakes
I couldn't comprehend
As I watched it unfold
This classic story told I left it in the cold

She made her way to her window as she starred at Rai, placing a hand on the cold, misty-midnight glass.

Walking through an open door that led me back to you
Each one unlocking more of the truth

I finally stopped tripping on my youth
I finally got lost inside of you
I finally know that I needed to grow
And finally my mate has met my soul

Finally
Now my destiny can begin
Though we will have our differences
Something strange and new is happening
Finally
Now my life doesn't seem so bad

She lay on the bed, with a big smile on her face starring at the ceiling above her, with butterflies fluttering around her stomach thinking about Rai.

It's the best that I've ever had
Give my love to him finally

Mmmmm…

I remember the beginning you already knew
I acted like a fool
Just trying to be cool
Fronting like it didn't matter
I just ran away
And on another phase
Was lost in my own space

She got up from her bed, walked back to the window.

Found what its like to hurt selfishly
Scared to give of me
Afraid to just believe
I was in a jealous, insecure, pathetic place
Stumbled through the mess that I have made

Finally got out of my own way
I've Finally started living for today
I finally know that I needed to grow
And finally my mate has met my soul

Finally
Now my destiny can begin
Though we will have a our differences
Something strange and new is happening
Finally!...
Now my life doesn't seem so bad
It's the best that I've ever had
Gave my love to him Finally

mmmmm…

She let her arms open as she felt the music going around her.

Finally, Finally

Finally
Now my destiny can begin
Though we will have our differences
Something beautiful is happening, happening

She didn't care if any one heard her as she sang at the top of her lungs, still walking around her room.

Finally!!
Now my life doesn't seem so bad
It's the best that I've ever had
Give my love to him finally

Ohhhhhhh, Finally!, Finally!

She lay on her bed, Fiiiiannallyy…… She slipped her earphones out, placing the iPod on her bedside table.

She looked out at Rai, with a soccer ball under his feet. She smiled. Typical.

She let her hair out of her high ponytail, shaking it around, and then brushing it quickly. He's going to ask me, oh my GOD, he's going to ask me. She had on her usual Xiaolin Robe, wishing she could change, "Oh well.." She said to herself, "It's not that it matters what I wear to go for a walk in the garden…" She put some clothes away in her large closet, "…with my guy friend I've liked for a long time… and this could be it…" She stopped in her tacks, reconcidering, and passing a quick glance at what he was wearing.

Of course, it was the typical clothes, so she changed into her normal clothes too.

"I don't want to feel over dressed…" She said to herself once more. She opened her door and quickly ran down the stairs and walked to the garden, looking around for Rai. He was in front of the pond, on the stone bench, balancing his soccer ball on his fore head.

It was then when 'Contagious' by Avril Lavigne rang in her head.

Oh, oh…. Oh oh. When you're around I don't know what to do.

I do not think I can waa-it. To come over there and talk to you…

She cleared her throat, giving Rai a sign that she was there. She turned, catching the ball in his hands, "Oh, hey." He said, placing the ball under the bench, sitting on top of it, Kimiko fallowing him, sitting to his left.

"So, What's up?" Kimiko said, starring at him right in the eyes.

That's something Rai really liked, no matter what Kimiko could do, she could still stare at them right in the eyes. No matter who she wanted murdered, she could stare the victim right in the eye. Just…hypothetically…

Rai didn't break the connection of their eyes, not wanting to show weakness.

"It's just that, I know you've been through a lot of emotions and stress lately," Kimiko smiled, "..and I thought you'd need some more support…" Rai said, holding a hand of Kimiko's. She nodded, "Yeah, just texting your girlfriends isn't that great. Our relationships have really slipped over the years of me coming here from Tokyo.." Kimiko explained.

Rai nodded, knowing that answer already. "Right." They, by now, where both starring at the moonlit pond, he turned to her and whispered in her ear, "..but you'll always have me."

Kimiko felt like something went threw her body as she blinked up at the millions of stars above her, feeling his arms around her waist.

Finally, Rai broke the silence, "You know that feeling when you feel like you're doing everything wrong left, right, and centre?" Kimiko nodded, with a deep exhale. Rai looked up at the moon, Kimiko still in his arms, "Well, you have to think, everything's going to get wrong before better…"

"..and when better comes it's like nothing you've ever felt." Kimiko finished softly.

Rai nodded, closing his eyes for a minute, the trans quickly breaking as Kimiko slipped out of his arms, turning to him, "But Rai?"

"Hmm?" he said, curiously, "What is it?"

"That's not all that's been bothering me..." Kimiko asked, still holding his hand, but turned and starred at the ground unsurely. "What is it…" he asked, looking at her and raising a concerned brow.

I LOVE YOU RAI! I FREAKIN LOVE YOU! Is what she felt like screaming, but in reality, what came out of Kimiko's mouth was, "I can see you are bothered by something, so just.. 'fess up."

He exhaled deeply.

C'mon!!... Kimiko thought egarly. Just ask me already! Ask me to be your girlfriend!..To marry you!... To be your lover! Just ask anything, Rai!!!..

"It's just.. I.."

You what? Rai! You. WHAT?

"Ever since…"

The first time me met you've wanted to be with me??... WHAT IS IT JUST SAY SOMETHING ROMANTIC RAI!.. Her body was full of adrenaline as she felt what was coming up.

"I want you.."

…want what?

"…to please explain what the whole, 'I'm not your girl thing.' "

Kimiko's shoulders dropped. Oh shit.. I forgot about that.

She couldn't help but to feel like a bitch, "I almost forgot about that, Rai…" She looked up at him, "I'm sorry."

He nodded his head.

"It was just.. it.. slipped." She was stiff, not knowing what else to say. What more was there?

"…Rai, you KNOW we're SOMETHING… but we just-"

"We just what!?" Rai said, palms face up in front of him with high shoulders.

It's just I want you to ask me to be your girlfriend! I want this to be clarified, not announced at a Xiaolin Showdown! That's not very meaningful!!

It was then when that song rang in Kimiko's ears again.

..I do not know what I should say.

She studdered, speaking her mind for once, "I want you to ASK me! I don't want to declare it in a Xiaolin SHOWDOWN!" She practically screamed, standing up with her hands some what in the air, "What is the meaning of that, Raimundo? Tell me."

I walk out in silence..

"Kimiko!" Rai said. Kim stopped. She never heard that tone of voice before.

That's when I start to realize, what you bring to my life…

She only winced, holding back the tears. No, Rai. No.

Damn this guy can make me cry.

She continued walking, hearing Rai behind her. She walked up the many stairs to get to the side door of the Temple, "I can't…" She whispered at the top of the steps grabbing the door handle.

She heard Rai come up behind her as he spun her around, "Kimiko!" They made contact. His brown eyes against her flooding crystal blue eyes. "I love you." He said, the words echoing in both of there heads.

All Kimiko could do is let her eyes read his face, her mouth open to say something, letting out a squeek from her throat, not knowing what to say.

"…Rai." He looked at her, waiting for the words to fall out of her mouth. "…I've always loved you… and I still do…" She let the tears stream down her face, as she gasped for air, running inside, wiping her face, and running to her room, locking the door.

She starred at her iPod and Diary. Therapy.

As the young teenage girl slipped out of Rai's grasp, his sadness soon turned into frustration. He kicked the trashcan at the top of the stairs and groaned doing so. Rai sat at the end step, letting his fingers go threw the grass below him. He looked in front of him, seeing a soccer ball.

Right there in front of him, was Raimundo's therapy.
