Best Friends Will Always Be Here:

Omi glared out the window of the plane.

"Omi, it can't be that bad," Kimiko said, "I mean you might see Germaine again."

"I refuse to the reason why I had to leave the temple for SIX FULL MONTHS," he spat the three final words in distaste.

"Omi," she placed a hand on his small shoulder, "last time we came to New York, I didn't even see my close friends, so please."

"Fine," he said finally, "will I get to meet these friends of yours?"

"Soon enough," she laughed, she said, holding on to the small white t-shirt pillow in her grasp…on it were her name and a few others…Keiko even wondered why she held on to that pillow that she had made herself.

She found herself drifting off into a peaceful sleep.

Dream:

She was slightly older, walking down the aisle, in a long beautiful wedding gown. Her father did his best to hold onto her arm. Her eyes widened when she saw the two young men at the end of the aisle, one was Raimundo and she couldn't believe she recognized him…it was an older version of Don. Rai sneered at Don and then gained a hopeful look in his green eyes when she stood arrived at the alter.

"Kimiko Tohomiko, it is time for you to make your choice," she looked at the preacher, who happened to be Master Fung. She blinked, looking at Rai, then her mutant friend Donatello…she felt her stomach do back flips when she looked at both of them…she had no idea why. But she had to choose one, so she made her decision and took a deep breathe…

"I choose…"

End Dream:

She woke up to the sound of the announcement that they would be landing soon, so she buckled her seat belt, and then Omi's and she stared out the window in awe as they landed.

Omi looked at Kimiko as she made her way through the crowd, both of their bags in her grasp, her long hair was down, and had purple streaks going through it. The moment she heard a surfer's accent calling her name, only one name came to mind.

"MIKEY!" she called. She suddenly felt a tight hug from behind her, causing her to tense, a lot.

"I missed you!" she laughed knowing that it was defiantly Mikey.

"Long time, no see, Mike," she said.

"So, how are you, I heard that you're a warrior, did you get me a present!" she grinned at his childish antics.

"I got you a present Mikey," she turned to see him in a trench coat and hat, "mysterious, hott."

"I am pretty good looking," Mikey flexed him muscles. Omi stared at him as he made a fool out of himself.

"Hello, I'm Omi, Xiaolin Dragon of water, the greatest warrior on Earth," his big ego was showing.

"Well, I'm Michelangelo, BATTLE NEXUS CHAMPION," Mikey proclaimed, "which means I'm a better warrior than you are little man." Omi began to steam with anger.

"No you are not," Omi shouted, of course Mikey stayed quite and was listening to Kimiko.

"So, is he here?" she asked.

"Don, he's waiting for us out back," Mikey grinned, "so, you're boyfriend dumped you."

"Yeah, he met some girl in Brazil, and well…at least he didn't cheat on me," Kimiko sighed.

"That's the spirit," Mikey grinned.

"I heard of these friends of yours, April and Casey," Kimiko raised an eyebrow, "I think Casey is a dork." Mikey bursted into laughter and Omi just glared at him.

"He is a dork," he said finally, giving her a cheeky grin.

"I can't believe you guys know Kate," Kimiko finally said.

"Yeah, she and Raph are beginning to get ideas," Mikey grinned, "like if they should get married or not."

"Excuse me, but could you please move," they turned to see, Ashley, or in Kimiko and Omi's case Katnappe.

"Katnappe?" she raised an eyebrow, "what are you doing here?"

"My daddy's on a business trip, so what are you two Xiaolin losers doing here?" Katnappe hissed.

"On a much needed vacation," Kimiko said.

"Hope to see you before I leave, NOT," Katnappe snapped walking off.

"She's nice," Mikey said sarcastically.

"No she is not, some warrior you are," Omi stuck his tongue out.

"I was using sarcasm," Mikey blinked, "well come on." The three walked out side, the starless night sky met them.

"Where are the stars?" Omi asked.

"Oh, it's too bright in the city so, the stars don't come out at night," Mikey said. Kimiko stifled a few giggles as Omi looked at him in confusion.

"What do you mean?" Omi asked. Kimiko busted out in laughter.

"Maybe…yeah," Mikey sighed and walked to the Battle Shell (sorry, but I love the battle shell) Omi stared in wonder at the vehicle.

"Okay, Omi," she waved a hand in his face, "it's just a car."

"It doesn't look like those other cars," Omi said.

"Well it's not," Mikey grinned, "while Kimiko was training to be a Xiaolin Dragon, we have been protecting the innocent of New York."

"That's nice," Kimiko said, "but what does the armored truck have to do with anything."

"It has to do with…driving around and stuff…IT HAS WEAPONS!" Mikey grinned.

-At the Xiaolin Temple-

Rai frowned; kicking a rock…life wouldn't be the same without Omi and Kimiko. Sure he dumped Kimiko to go out with some girl he met in Brazil…but it would be worth it, right?

Clay was with Dojo somewhere, so he collected on his thoughts on what happened shortly after the big break up.

-Flashback-

He watched in the doorway as Kimiko IMed with some one, she was sobbing hysterically. She suddenly sniffed, and wiped the tears from her eyes, she was still crying…but she rushed past him to go talk to Master Fung.

"Master Fung?" she asked.

"Yes Kimiko," he smiled, but he noticed the tears that streaked her cheeks, "what is the matter?"

"I need a break, do you mind if I go away for a few months?" she sniffed. The old man had a thoughtful on his face.

"You can go for as long as you wish…under one condition," she looked at him, with a smile, "you must take Omi with you."

"Thank you Master Fung," a smile finally finding its way to her lips, "Omi will be back in six months."

"Why Omi only?" he asked.

"I need to see a group of my oldest friends," she said, her eyes twinkling from the tears, and of pure joy.

-End Flashback-

Rai sighed as his cell phone rang.

"Hello?" he answered.

"Hey Rai," he smiled as his girlfriend's voice spoke on the other end.

-Back in New York-

"Uh…is Omi freaked easily?" Mikey asked.

"Only by squirrels," Kimiko said, "I need to hug him you know."

"And you don't need to hug me?" Mikey pouted.

"I already got my hug from you," she grinned.

"Well then, let's get in," Mikey smirked, opening the back on the Battle Shell, opening to a very annoyed Kate.

"What took ya'll so long?" she grinned.

"Kate, it is so great to see you," Kimiko hugged her, "so, when's the wedding?"

"Who told you I was getting married?" she asked, tilting her head, "Oh, Raph and I have been thinking about that, and this little cheese puff must be Omi."

Omi looked at her, "What is this puff of cheese that you speak of?"

"Kate don't confuse him," Don's voice drifted from the driver's seat.

"I CALL SHOT GUN!" Kimiko shouted, getting in. Omi was about to say something when…

"Hey, I wanted to sit up front," Mikey whined.

"Okay, Mikey I think you should take off the trench coat," Kate said, ripping the hat from his head. Omi's eyes widened, seeing he was green.

"Okay, is it safe is the little guy's eyes widen?" Kate called to Kimiko.

"I think," Kimiko said.

"THIS IS SO FREEZING!" Omi shouted in excitement.

"Cool," Kimiko corrected, buckling her seatbelt.

"So we're cool in this kid's book?" Mikey asked.

"Yeah," Kimiko said looking back at them grinning, "at least you aren't a girl…then he would bring out the 'Ancient Guide to Females,' which will make me angry."

"You angry?" Don asked.

"Don, you are one of the lucky few that can't make me angry," Kimiko patted him on the shoulder.

"Oh, yeah…Omi, that's Michelangelo, aka Mikey," she pointed at Mikey, "that's Kate," she pointed at her brunette friend, "and this guy I'm sitting next to Donatello, aka Don."

Omi grinned, "Greetings my new friends."

"Does he always talk so formal?" Mikey asked.

"Yeah," Kimiko looked back, grinning.

"Okay?" Mikey sat their with an eye ridge raised.

-Jack Spicer's Lair-

"Okay…Miss…" he looked at the blonde woman, a slight smile on his lips.

"Sarah," she smiled back.

"And what makes you think you could become my assistant?" Jack asked her.

"I am a Ninja," she answered, "and a technology expert."

"You won't betray me," Jack gulped.

"No, as long as you allow me to go to my Master and train," Sarah grinned, "but I don't think I will."

"Okay, but who is your master?" he found himself asking.

"You will find out soon, Jack," she said, standing up, "so when do I start?" Suddenly his wu tracker went off.

"Immediately," he smirked.

-Back at the Xiaolin Temple-

"Maya, I have to stay here," Raimundo begged.

"Rai, if you want our relationship to work, then you have to come back," the voice on the other end pleaded, "please."

"Look, I can't, the worlds at stake," he said.

"Oh yeah, where were you during the alien invasion?" she hissed into the phone.

"Wait, there was an alien invasion, when was it?" Rai asked.

"It was two years ago, that's why the city was being rebuilt," Maya said on the other end, "How do you not know?"

"I guess we were trapped in the Yin-Yang world," Rai blushed.

"Rai, just come here, and maybe we can think of something," she begged on the other end.

"Look, I said no, why won't you take that?" Rai begged.

"Rai, if you're going to be like that…WE'RE THROUGH!" the line went dead.

"Why don't I want to beg for forgiveness from her?" Rai asked himself. Suddenly his cell rang again.

"Hello?" he asked.

"It's me Kimiko," he grinned hearing her voice.

"You know you can come back," Rai said.

"Rai, just tell Master Fung that Omi and I got here okay," Kimiko stressed on the other end.

"Look, Kimiko I'm…" Rai began.

"She dumped you didn't she?" Kimiko asked amused.

"Yeah," Rai said.

"You can't expect me to come back to you every time you do that," she paused, "just let me think about it, okay?"

"Come on Kim," he grinned, "how many times have we broken up and gotten back together?"

"Rai, maybe…I should be seeing other people," she said finally, "each time I go back to your open arms…you push me away…and I can't take that anymore."

"So you're saying that I'm a lousy boyfriend," he said, trying to hide the feeling that she was right…and he didn't want to face it.

"Yes," she said that in a heartbeat, "Look I gotta go…and hang out with some of my friends."

"Kim, please, just one more chance," Rai found himself begging, "just come back to the temple, and I promise to make this one count."

"Rai, if you really love me, then just let me find if you are the one for me," Kimiko sighed, "I still love you, but I need to…find out something okay?"

Rai sighed, "See you in six months."

"Rai, I might not be coming back in six months," Kimiko said, "Omi might, but it's most likely that I'm not coming back until maybe a bit longer." With that the line was dead.

"Kimiko, you just have to come back," he shook his head.

-Back with Kimiko, Omi, Don, Mikey, and Kate-

She felt his hand on her shoulder, he was driving, but he was still trying to comfort her. A small smile appeared on her lips, as he slightly squeezed her shoulder.

No matter how many times he did it, it brought major shivers down her spine. Don always found a way to calm her down.

"You didn't tell me that Omi would be here for only six months," he said, "why are you planning to stay a bit longer?"

"I don't know," Kimiko found herself blushing, "maybe I just want to catch up with old times…and stuff like that."

"You know," Don said, "that you're always welcomed."

"I know that," her eyes sparkled, "but tonight…I just need a shoulder to help support me."

"I'll be there if you just say the word," Don grinned.

"You better," she poked his bicep.

"You still love Raimundo," Don said.

"Well, not as much as I did, when we first started," Kimiko bit her lip, "it's just that his smile is so hypnotizing that I can't think of anything but that smile."

"Rock, paper, scissors, SHOOT!" Mikey's voice rang from the back.

"I win!" Kate laughed.

"Did you cheat?" Mikey asked.

"How can you cheat in rock, paper, scissors?" Kate asked.

Kimiko took Don's hand from off her shoulder, and held it in her own.

"What?" he asked. She gave his hand a slight squeeze, a smile forming on her lips.

"Thanks," she murmured, "for being there in Central Park when I was lost."

"Hey, if Mikey hadn't had made me upset then I wouldn't have met you," Don said.

"And I would be at the Xiaolin Temple…back in Rai's arms," Kimiko shuddered at the thought.

"Kimi?" she looked at the purple masked turtle, and gave him a smile.

"I'm alive!" she proclaimed.

"That wasn't funny," Mikey called from the back.

"I wasn't trying to be funny Mike," she called back.
