A/N: Now for the good stuff! Bwahaha!! (Aargh...reading way too much Avatar fanfics, especially Zutara ones...must...write...Xiaolin Showdown!)

Kimiko watched as Raimundo and Clay hauled steel bars to cover the doors and windows.
"I can't believe I let this happen! This is all my fault!"
"What do you mean by that, Kimiko? How's it your fault? You didn't do anything..."
"That's just it!" Kimiko snapped and leaped up to confront Raimundo. "Jack kept visiting me for the past few days, and two days ago he asked me out."
"He did WHAT?! I swear, I'll kill him!" Raimundo stormed.
"No...I'm going to go resolve this. I bet if I date him, he'll give us the Wu back. I didn't do anything before, but now, it's time to take action."
"No! Kimiko, I won't let you! We can fight him! We've beat the Sapphire Dragon before, we can do it again!"
"Fine, Raimundo. But if we start to lose, I'm just going to date him."
"But, Kimiko..." Raimundo hissed into her ear. "What about us?"
"Rai...I will always be yours, but if all comes to worse, at least you'll be alive if I date him!"
"Kim...I dont want to lose you, no matter what! I-I'd die for you. That's how much I love you." Raimundo leaned down and claimed Kimiko's lips sweetly. Kimiko allowed him to, but pulled back when he tried to deepen the kiss. Clay and Omi watched, clueless.
"What happened between them?" They though simultaneously. Clay and Omi exchanged a look.
"Um...we'll just be...going now, pard'ners. We have some..uh..."
"Laundry to finish!" Omi dragged the dumbfounded Clay away from the couple.
"Kimiko, I will fight for you, even against impossible odds." Rai gazed into Kimiko's eyes. She stared back, glaring at him roughly.
"I will not let you die for nothing. And this is DEFINENTELY nothing."
"But..."
"You are not dying for me and that's final. Got it?" Raimundo nodded in defeat and walked away from Kimiko to finish their prep for Jack's onslaught.

He attacked that night.
A large blue dragon was spotted by the monks who patrolled at night. They immediately warned Master Fung. He knew his Dragons were prepared...but would they be able to win against a Jack scorned(the likes of which Hannibal Roy Bean has no fury...that was confusing).
"Whaddya think of me now, Kimiko? Still think I'm inferior to Raimundo?!" Jack flew on his helibot through the temple, destroying and sapphirizing everything and everyone in sight. "Emperor Scorpion! Sapphire Dragon, I command you to freeze everyone except for me and Kimiko!" The Dragon nodded and immediately stormed the temple.
A sapphire scream rang through the temple. Kimiko snapped her head up and fine-tuned her hearing.
"Who was that?!" Raimundo shrugged and joined Kimiko in running to the scene of the scream. Clay and Omi were already there and trying to fight off the Dragon. "Who got zapped?" Clay pointed hastily before dodging another zap from the Dragon's mouth.
A dark blue version of Dojo lay on the floor, motionless.
"Dojo..." And at that moment, Kimiko knew all hope was lost.
