This chapter is the beginning of Kimiko's emotional rollercoaster ride!

WARNING: If you don't like the idea of Kimiko cuddling with a mutant turtle, turn back now

Disclaimer: I don't own TMNT or Xiaolin Showdown, one thing is that everyone could see the possibility of Kimiko and Donatello being a couple without thinking about it…they just see it! But hey, I can dream can't I? I don't own Micco, but I do own my other OCs!

First Steps:

She rested her head on his shoulder, her eyes closed.

"Don," she whispered.

"Yeah Kimiko?" he asked.

"You're my best friend," she said, clinging on to his arm, "am I your best friend?"

"Yes of coarse," he said.

"Okay," she muttered, "will you hold me?"

"Yeah," he said after a long silence. He wrapped his arms around her smaller body, and held her close, rocking back and forth. He heard her sigh happily, and snuggle into him.

"Ooo, what does this do?" Omi's voice rang.

"You have seriously been raised in a temple," Mikey said, "It's a TV."

"What is this TV in which you speak of, and how does it work?" Omi asked.

Kimiko chuckled from her comfortable spot, she blushed realizing she was so close to Donatello and felt so comfortable. She breathed in his scent, her eyes closed.

"DONNY, OMI BROKE THE DVD PLAYER!" Mikey cried. Her eyes snapped opened, and her blush was on full throttle.

"I'll be right there," Don sighed, moving Kimiko to sit on his bed, "do you want to help Kimiko?"

"No thanks," she mumbled, looking at the floor. Don looked at her, and hesitated.

"This might take awhile," he said, "do you wanna talk in my lab, while I fix the DVD player, (sigh) again."

"Okay," she said, her blush slowly disappearing. He smiled and held out his hand.

"After you mi lady," he bowed. She giggled, and took a hold of his three fingered hand, not really phased by it.

"Of coarse kind sir," she complied, and they walked out, hand in hand.

-At the Xiaolin Temple-

"Shen-gong-wu alert!" Dojo proclaimed from his perch on Master Fung's shoulder.

"But we're two Xiaolin warriors short," Rai complained.

"Well, good thing it's in New York City," Dojo said.

"What?" Clay asked.

"Yup, maybe we will bump into them there," Dojo said.

"And we can convince them to come…" Rai began before being interrupted by Master Fung.

"Kimiko isn't only there to heal Raimundo," Master Fung shook his head, "she's also there to see some of her old friends, and Omi is there on a journey of discovery."

"But…" Rai argued.

"No, Raimundo, Kimiko must return on her own free will," Master Fung shook his head.

-In New York City-

Rai frowned searching for the wu, "Okay, the Locket of Love…what does it do again?"

"It shows you the true love of any person of your choice," Dojo said lazily from Clay's shoulder.

"So you had to buy a new DVD player," Kimiko's voice rang, "Omi didn't know that it wasn't water-proof."

"I know Kimiko, it's just that Mike should have kept a better eye on him," a masculine voice said.

"Aww is Donny mad?" she said cutely.

"No, I'm just frustrated," the voice replied.

"KIMIKO!" Rai shouted, seeing her with a guy in a trench coat and hat, he looked at the guy, he looked slightly older than she was, and he was holding a DVD box.

"Rai, Clay, Dojo, what are you guys doing here?" Kimiko asked.

"Shen-gong-wu," Rai said, "who's this guy?" he got a little jealous.

"This is my best friend Donatello," Kimiko patted the guy next to her on the shoulder, "I've known him since I was six." Rai blinked at the guy, who had his face hidden by the hat.

"Hey," he said.

"But what about Keiko?" Rai asked.

"She's my cousin," Kimiko stated, "I'll leave you guys to finding the wu; I need to catch up on old times." She smiled at Don.

"Okay, see you when you get back Kimiko," Clay said, dragging Rai off.

"Okay," she sighed.

"So…that's Rai, he seems nice," Don said.

"He's just a jerk, and nothing like Raph, who can be a jerk, but also be the biggest softy at times," Kimiko watched as the three left. Don smiled and looked at her.

"Hey, you wanna go do something after I drop this off at the lair?" Don asked.

"Sure," Kimiko answered in a heartbeat, they had no idea Rai saw it and his eyes flashed with jealousy.

He watched as she clung onto the guy's arm, her head on his shoulder.

"That should be me," he whispered.

"Rai, maybe you should give her some space," Clay said, putting a hand on Rai's shoulder.

"That should be me," Rai growled a bit louder.

"Raimundo are you okay?" Dojo asked.

"THAT SHOULD BE ME!" Rai roared.

-Back at the lair-

"Who are you?" Omi asked as a girl entered, she had long snow white hair with yellow streaks.

"I'm Micco," she said, "and you must be Omi."

"Yes," the monk nodded, "you are very pretty." She blushed at that.

"Thanks, you are really cute," she hesitated.

"SIS!" Mikey cried and ran to her, "How was the patrol?"

"Oh, Leo was kidnapped by his girlfriend, Lily Beth, and not to mention, Raph is at Kate's apartment, and Sensei is at April's," Micco said, "so yeah…it went okay, we met up with this freak with blood red hair, pale skin, and wore gothic stuff, the weird thing was…he was working with Sarah."

"What were they looking for?" he asked. Micco held up a heart shaped locket.

"The locket that Don saved up for me," she stated.

"Hmm…where is Don anyways?" she asked.

"Oh, he's out getting…a new DVD player," Mikey said with guilt, "I am partially responsible."

"No my friend, it is my fault, and I am sorry," Omi said.

"We needed a new DVD player anyway so don't feel bad," Micco smiled.

"Hey guys," Don walked in followed by Kimiko and he set the box down, "we're heading out to get ice cream."

"Hey Kimiko!" Micco chirped, she suddenly got an idea, "hey, come here for a moment." She ran up to Kimiko and took a hold of her arm, dragging her into a room where the boys couldn't hear.

"Micco what's up?" Kimiko asked.

"I want you to borrow this," she held out her necklace.

"Okay," Kimiko smiled, taking it from her friend's grasp, but when she did it began to glow, "Micco this is a Shen-gong-wu."

"So that's why that guy and Sarah were after it," Micco blinked, "I'm not ready to do…"

"Don't say it," Kimiko shook her head, "besides; maybe we should do something small."

"What are you good at?" Micco asked.

"Arranging flowers, why?" Kimiko asked.

"Kimiko, I challenge you to a Xiaolin Showdown, we will use no Shen-gong-wu, whoever arranges the best arrangement of flowers wins," Micco grinned.

"Micco I accept your Challenge," Kimiko smirked, "let's go Xiaolin Showdown."

The scenery in that room began to change, flowers were everywhere.

"Gong Yi Tan Pai!" the two girls cried, and they began to work. In a matter of minutes Micco lost and Kimiko won and the scenery changed back.

"Here," Micco smiled.

"Thanks," Kimiko smiled at Micco, and put it on, "and thank you for letting me borrow it."

-Back with the other Xiaolin Dragons-

"YOU FAILED ME!" Jack's voice whined.

"Jack?" Raimundo turned the corner, to see Jack Spicer crying and a girl trying to calm him down.

"How was I supposed to know that one of my enemies had the locket?" she asked, "But did you put a tracking device on her like I asked?"

"No," Jack sniffed.

"YOU IDIOT!" she growled, "SHE'S WITH MY ENEMIES, AND SHE KNOWS WHERE THEY ARE!"

"Hey, who's the boss here?" Jack said standing up.

"I thought it was an equal partnership," she glared.

"Okay…I kinda forgot about that," Jack laughed nervously.

"Jack you no good dirty snake," Clay stated.

"It's those Xiaolin losers…two losers short," Jack blinked, "where are they?"

"Guys…umm…we got another problem…I can't sense the wu anymore," Dojo gulped.

"That means…somebody had a Xiaolin Showdown," Raimundo nodded.

"I bet that girl had a showdown," Jack stated.

"What girl?" Rai asked.

"She is my enemy, my master's enemy…she uses her fighting for good," Sarah glared, "I must defeat Raphael for leaving me…that no good mutant left me to rot for my sister, and they both shall pay!" She ran off, making Jack use his helibot to chase after her.

"What the heck is she talking about?" Rai asked aloud.

"Isn't it obvious," Dojo said, "her boyfriend left her for her sister."

"Wait a second," Rai blinked, "KIMIKO!" He began to run in the direction that the two evil people went. Dojo and Clay shrugged a decided to follow.

-With Kimiko and Don-

She giggled as he did his best to tell a joke, but was failing miserably.

"Don, stop it," she laughed.

"I'm not as funny as Mikey," he admitted, he was smiling.

"Oh, it's okay," Kimiko giggled sitting in the back of the battle shell in an alley, the back doors opened.

"You're lucky Mikey isn't here," Don nodded, "or else…"

"I would drop my ice cream," she said taking a scoop and putting it in her mouth.

"KIMIKO!"

"Rai?" Kimiko blinked, "why is Rai crying out my name?"

"Don't know," Don shrugged, bringing the ice cream to his beak, only to have Sarah suddenly lunge at him.

"TELL ME WHERE THAT LOW LIFE IS!" she demanded the purple banded turtle. She let out a surprised squeak when he kicked her off of him.

"I don't know who you're talking about, you low life backstabbing ingrate," Donatello glared at her.

"Oh, this time I got help," she grinned, pointing behind her where Jack was hovering.

"KIMIKO?" he cried, "I'M GONNA DIE!"

"You've met that girl?" Sarah frowned.

"She's one of my enemies," Jack suddenly got an idea, "let's hurt them both."

"I got a better idea," Sarah smirked, drawing out her Sais, "Let's kill them both, sending message to the other turtles...Raph had better regret leaving me now."

"KIMIKO!" Rai cried seeing Kimiko standing next to a giant turtle, ice cream spilled out on the ground.

"Rai," she blinked, "shit." Sarah took that moment because Kimiko was off guard of attack Kimiko, only to be attacked by Donatello, who punched her in the gut, causing her to stagger backwards.

"Thanks," Kimiko smiled.

"Ooo, I'm so scared," Sarah coughed, "the guy that fights with a stinkin' bo!"

"Kimiko, run!" Rai cried, not worried about their new enemy, but the giant turtle.

"NO WAY IN HELL, I'M STAYING BY MY BEST FRIEND'S SIDE!" Kimiko shouted, charging Sarah, sending her powerful punches and kicks.

"Best Friend's side?" he asked himself in horror, "this was the guy she was with (gulp) earlier." His knees began to wobble, and then…he finally collapsed his eye twitching.

Kimiko shook her head, eyes closed seeing that but Sarah and Jack were fleeing.

"I hope he's okay," Don gulped.

"He'll be fine when he wakes up," Kimiko sighed.

"KIMIKO!" she looked up to see Clay and Dojo.

"Uh…I can explain!" she cried, hiding behind Don.

"What are you?" Clay frowned at Don.

"HEY!" Kimiko glared at him.

"What?"

"He has feelings too ya know!" she glared daggers at the cowboy.

"Okay…is this that guy you were with earlier?" Dojo blinked.

"How'd ya guess?" Don asked.

"Call it dragon instincts," Dojo grinned.

"Okay, gather Rai up," Kimiko shook her head, "We'll take him to April's, I really don't want to face Leo, if he does get back from his girlfriend's house."

"Leo?" Clay asked.

"My brother," Don said.

"Oh," they nodded.

PLEASE R&R!
