My past and the answer to my questions…

"Rai! Wait!" Kimiko yelled after Raimundo raced out of the door. Kimiko sighed and ran after him. Thankful for being able to run fast, Kimiko caught up to Rai and blocked his way. She panted for a few seconds and asked, "Where do you think you're going?"

"Kim, I have no time for this. Just let me past ok?" Rai pleaded, huffing as well. However, Kimiko was persistent and asked again, "Tell me where you're going and I'll let you pass but you will let me follow you,"

"Kim-" his sister interrupted him and continued.

"AND if you don't tell me I'm not letting you go and I'm going to fry your hair again." Kimiko threatened. Rai sighed in defeat and spilled the beans to his sister.

"That old man… he seems suspicious though… don't you think? Ok let's go!"

"Oh no, you're staying with dad it's too dangerous, you may get hurt again… because of me…" Rai trailed off. Kim looked at her brother with sympathetic eyes, she knew that Rai was uneasy but she didn't want to leave his side.

Especially at a time like this…

"Rai! I'm 15! I'm almost 16; I'm old enough to take care of myself! You need me, I have the brains. You need me to help you to find that old geezer." Kimiko exclaimed with tears filling her eyes.

"I said no! I don't want you hurt again! What if dad found out? He might suffer from knowing that you're hurt!" Rai exclaimed back. But Kimiko continued to dissuade her brother.

"He won't want you hurt either!" Kimiko yelled with tears flowing down her cheeks. Rai stared at her feeling remorseful for making her cry. He moved closer to her and pulled her into a hug. Kimiko continued to cry on his chest.

"Well, if it isn't the holder of wind and fire?" the siblings turned and were astonished to see someone hooded with a blue cloak which shielded his face.

"You'r-" stuttered Rai.

"The old man…"

"The names Fung; Master Fung."

"Ok…"

"You, Young ones, you're seeking for answers I presume?" Master Fung asked. Rai and Kimiko just stared at Master Fung blankly and nodded slightly.

"Follow me young ones," Master Fung said coolly and walked away with the siblings behind him. They came by a tree; a willow tree.

"Umm… a tree?" Rai said confused. Kimiko just stayed quiet while Master Fung shook his head a little.

"A willow tree. Now come." Said Master Fung as he stepped forward towards the tree. The siblings were about to stop him as they thought he was going to bang into the tree but instead, he walked into the tree. The siblings stood there frozen.

"Let's go." Rai said with a gentle voice and held Kimiko's hand reassuringly and they proceeded to walk into the tree. Soon, before their eyes was a temple on top of a hill which was in China. They gasped in awe at the scenery. The cool breeze blew sakura petals around them.

"We're… in China?" Kimiko finally uttered out and she paused to look at Rai who had the same expression. Then, she looked down at their hands locked with each other. She suddenly turned as red as an apple. She immediately released her hand from Rai's grip. Rai turned to face his sister but she just looked the other way.

"Ok girl! His your brother, don't go imagining stuff otherwise you'll turn incest. Think of something else, something else!" thought Kimiko and something popped into her head. A picture of Rai just out of the showers with his hair covered with a towel and another towel covering his body half of his body which left his upper half naked. Kimiko's face heated up even more.

"Welcome to my temple," said a voice behind the siblings. It was Master Fung without the cloak.

"Where are we?" Rai asked almost immediately after Master Fung welcomed them.

"As you said, we are in China. That tree earlier was a portal to other worlds, places to be precise." Rai and Kim just stared at him dumbfounded. Before Kimiko could say anything, Raimundo spoke ahead of her, "I must be dreaming… CHINA? I mean it's like miles away from Japan! And a tree that is a portal? I came to learn my past and I'm experiencing this?"

"Raimundo Pedrosa am I right?"

"Uh…ya that's my name I use in school." Raimundo felt awkward talking about his name somehow.

"Where did you think of your sir name?" Master Fung asked again. Boy was he persistent.

"It was on his name tag when my family adopted him." Kimiko answered instead. She expected the monk to give of a shock expression but he remained calm. This was seriously getting on Kimiko's nerves. Raimundo realized this and immediately held back his sister before she throws a tantrum.

"Relax hot head. I want answers Fung man, who am I? Why do I have these powers? What are my past and the connection to all these happenings?" wow… Raimundo had never called Kimiko a "hot head" unless he is extremely mad. Once his mad, no one knows what will happen.

"You too have to relax young one. Now for a quiz question: What is more precious than gold, can't be seen, touched or heard, but can be known day and night?"

"Jeez… Master Fung, let the kids have it already? Hey kiddos." Soon crawled in a green lizard like "thing" which could talk.

"EWW! I hate geckos!" Kimiko shrieked.

"Hey! NEVER CALL ME A GECKO!" said the lizard like creature which soon grew rapidly enormously.

"I'm a dragon, the names Dojo, for 1500 years that I had lived I had never been insulted more than being called a GECKO!" Dojo boomed at the siblings.

"And the answer to your question is: Friendship." Raimundo interrupted Dojo's booming and returned to Master Fung's question. Master Fung nodded his head and asked Dojo to relax.

"Well done." Said Master Fung with a snap of his fingers, Clay and Omi appeared out of the blue. They rubbed their heads in confusion. However, Omi was completely nude luckily the foam and bubbles covered the necessary areas and his head. Rai immediately placed his hands over his grossed out sister's eyes.

"Here, put on these robes." Master Fung offered the four. It was just their size. Dojo slithered towards Rai and took out his magnifying glass. He inspected the medallion that Rai worn.

"Oh my Dashi! That medallion… it can't be… MASTER FUNG this child!" Dojo spoke with a worried tone. Master Fung just nodded his head.

"Uh… what's going on? Where are we?" questioned Clay bluntly.

"I was halfway bathing and tuning a whistle and suddenly I'm in… CHINA!" Omi burst out loud.

"It's whistling a tune Omi and what's with the sudden enthusiasm?" Rai spoke up and still had Dojo curled around his neck.

"Omi? Omi!" exclaimed Dojo as he untangles himself from Rai and pounced on Omi. The others just looked at Omi blankly while Master Fung helped Omi up.

"Master Fung, it's a pleasure to be back." Omi bowed respectfully.

"What's going on Omi and I answered your riddle now you bring them here? I don't want to hurt anyone." Rai said. Master Fung just stood still and spoke, "That is why I'm going to train you to find out your past and the key is the medallion."

"Rai, what in tarnation is going on here?" Clay asked his best friend. Rai just shrugged him off.

"I have no idea myself."

"He came to find out about his past and I insisted on following him here. This old man here brought us here through a willow tree. The next thing we're in here." Kimiko explained. Clay started to smirk.

"What?" Rai asked bluntly.

"So you two were alone?" Clay grinned which made Rai a little red. Nope, no, Kimiko's your sister. Don't go falling for her. Rai reminded himself repeatedly until Kimiko placed a hand on his shoulder.

"You ok Rai?"

"Um… ya…" he stuttered and laughed sheepishly.

"Now my friends follow me, I will lead you to your rooms." Omi said and lead the others to their rooms. But they did not realize they were being watched by someone whom they knew pretty well….
