Disclaimer: I don't own Xiaolin Showdown.
A/N: I never planned this story out. So I may be very vague on some details, so I apologize now. And sorry about the Uncle Omi, Uncle Clay, and Uncle Rai stuff. I'm just gonna go back to original names. Besides, why would Chloe call them that now?

I was about to say something, when Chase grabbed me, and pulled me to his side. I saw why immediately. My parents and the others were here. Great, I thought. They'll try to keep me with them. I'm not evil. I'm good.
Omi was the first to speak. "Chase Young, you're back. How exactly?" I guessed he couldn't see me.
Chase put his arm behind me. It gave me the courage to speak. "I freed him, because my bloody parents kidnaped someone. You're evil, all of you! And I actually thought ya'll were good. I feel like a fool!" It felt good to tell them what I thought. To give them a piece of my mind. It felt wonderful.
Mom shook her head. "No sweetie! He's evil! We trapped him long ago! We kept him away from you, because if he got free, he would try to take over the world."
I looked up at Chase. He didn't look evil. Well, his eyes were gold, but they didn't look completely evil. They looked normal. All normal people had a good and bad side.
I shook my head. "Yeah right! So what, he tried to take over the world! I found some stuff out on my own! I heard Rai telling Clay about Dad trying to take over the world loads of times! Everyone wants to rule the world! Get over it, it's life!"
Dad became angry. "Do you know what that man did?" he roared. "He tried to marry your mother when she was only 14, by kidnaping her, and me! We escaped by pure luck!"
I rolled my eyes, and laughed. "Sure! You know what? I'm sick of your lies. I'm leaving. I'll go with Chase. At least he'll tell me the truth!" I looked up at Chase. He grabbed my hand, and then jumped into the air. He didn't go high. The others finally realized we were trying to escape, and began to attack.
"Seismic Kick, Earth!" I heard Clay cry. It was aimed towards me. I waited for me to fall into the crack that formed in the earth, but it never came. I felt as if I were being held. I opened my eyes, and saw Chase holding me. I heard my mother scream. I didn't care. She just didn't want me to go to the good side. I was probably supposed to be a part of some secret elaborate plan involving some evil crap. I pry had to go steal something they wanted, I thought. That's all I was to them. Just a pawn in their evil conspiracy.
Chase smiled at me, and jumped into the air. I noticed the purple blob follow us. I wondered what it was.
When we were on the roof, Chase put me down, and started a conversation with the purple thing.
"Wuya, nice to see you again," he said
The blob smiled. "It's good to be back. So, at least my curse worked. I knew it would." I recognized the voice at once.
"Hey," I shouted. "You were that voice in my head! How did you do that if you were stuck in a box?"
She turned to me, and said, "Because that's what Heylin power can do. It's the good side. I had to make sure you freed Chase, so we can take over the world, and due away with evil!" She cackled. Her voice was hideous.
I turned to Chase. He was looking at the building in the distance. I had heard of it before. My parents had called it the, 'Temple'. I could tell Chase wanted something from there. Probably something that could stop us.
"So, Chase, when you gonna answer my questions?" I really wanted them answered now.
Chase looked down at me and smiled. His smile made me feel tingly. I liked the feeling. "I will answer your questions when I get a few shen-gong-wu, and we get back to my place."
That's another couple of questions to add to the list, I thought. How does he got a place, if he's been trapped in a bubble? And what on earth are shen-gong-wu?
Suddenly, Chase jumped off the building, landing neatly on the ground. Wuya flew down. I was stuck on the roof. I heard a voice from the hole we made in the roof.
"Typhoon Boom, Wind!" I knew it was Rai's voice. A small tornado appeared in the hole, and Rai rose up, in the center.
"Don't go with them, Chloe! They're evil! Heylin is evil!" He gave a small smile, and held out his hand. Part of me was tempted to take it. After all, he had been my favorite uncle. But then I looked at it, and stuck out my tongue.
"As if!" I shouted. And I ran off the building. I could've sworn I would have broken some bones, if Chase hadn't caught me. My stomach began to flutter. It felt nice to have someone I could trust.
"Let's go," he said, smiling at me. He put me down, and we began walking to the 'Temple'.

When we arrived, no one was there. Chase walked to the tallest building. He kicked open the door with ease. Wow, I thought. He's great with martial arts! This is like my hero!
When I walked in after him, I saw that the room didn't contain much. A couple of chimes, a pot in the middle of the room. That was about it. Why one earth did we come in this building?
Chase didn't seem to think that. He walked over to the pot, and stomped his foot hard. The bricks that surrounded to pot became steps. That just freaked me out. Chase and Wuya acted as if it were normal. They descended to steps, and I followed closely behind.
They opened some stone boxes, and took out a couple of items. I weird looking tail thing, a mirror with writing on it, a little cat, a circle like thing, and a blanket. Wow, whoever owned these obviously liked hiding their antiques, I thought, as we began walking up. They didn't seem important.
When we exited the building, I saw five people running towards the temple. Chase merely glanced at them, and said, "Three guesses who they are." I didn't have to guess. I knew. They were determined to have me fight for evil.
Chase looked through the items, and pulled out the cat. "Crouching Cougar!" he called. The little cat glowed, and became a big cat. Chase grabbed my hand, and leapt into the cat. "Keep your head back," he advised. As soon as I did, the cat took off at a great velocity.

I couldn't remember the trip at all. It was all blurred memory. Chase seemed unfazed by the trip. He jumped off, the purple blob, Wuya, following him. I jumped off, and looked at where we were at.
We were at a cave like place that was shaped like a giant cat. To me, it looked plain weird, but Chase obviously saw something completely different. "Ah," he sighed. "Home sweet home."
We began walking to the mouth of the cat. He pushed in a stone, and it opened as if it were a door. When I walked in, it was the most beautiful place I had ever set foot in. I could tell why Chase had called this his home. I had half the heart to do that now.
A woman in a tattered dress walked up. She bowed to Chase, and said, "Welcome back, Master. Is there anything I can do for you?"
Chase nodded. "Please take my guest here to a room. Not a cell, a real room. She is allowed to wander. She is here on her own free will. Get her some clothes, and cook dinner. Serve it in the same place we last had it."
The woman nodded, and turned to me. "Miss, would you follow me. We'll get you some nice clothes, and some hot food."
Before I left, I turned to Chase, but he spoke before me. "I will answer your questions at dinner."
I smiled a little. "That wasn't what I was going to ask. I was going to ask that when I was done, getting dressed, if I could come and hang out with you. You saved me from my parents, and uncles. I'm in your debt."
Chase thought about it. Or I think he thought about it. Finally he said, "Yes, you may. I'll take you for a tour of this place."
My heart felt much warmer. "Thank you," I gave him a hug, before following the woman to my room.
I couldn't wait for the tour.

A/N: I wanted to update this. Please, if you think that Chloe is evil, she is not! It's Chase's trick. So yeah. I shut up now. I might add another chapter. I like this.
