Xiaolin Showdown
A New Threat
Part 3
The New Monks
The four monks awoke at precisely 8:00 AM. They each went to the TV and turned on the guide option. When Omi saw the results, he happily said, "Look! All of our shows come on at different times. First is Kimiko's, then Raimundo's, then Clay's, and finally mine. Since mine is the best, I guess the schedulers decided to follow the old saying 'save the best for last'."
"Yeah, or they decided to show good shows first so everyone won't get bored and leave," Raimundo snarkily suggested.
"Why don't we have a battle with Shen Gong Wu to see who's hero is actually the best?" Omi replied with zeal.
Raimundo sighed. "Fine by me. Right after our shows we should have a grand battle to see whose favorite hero is actually the best."
"Great! I will show you how well Spider-Man can do against whomever you pick!" Omi yelled.
"Perfect! Hey Kimiko, whose hero do you think is the best?" Rai asked.
"Mine of course!" yelled Kimiko.
"Hold on one sec pardners. Ya'll really know that the Thing's the best hero, don't you?" Clay asked.
"No way! Superman could beat him any day!" Raimundo angrily screamed. "And if you don't believe me, we should have a battle after our shows are over to see whose hero is actually the best."

Later, after the monks finished watching their TV shows, they all gathered in the garden to discuss the rules for the battle. "We each get two Shen Gong Wu in order to properly represent our hero's powers," said Raimundo.
"Works for me," Kimiko said.
"Me too," Omi agreed.
"Why not? That's all I need to beat all of you," clay decided.
"Good. Now let's go pick our Wu," Raimundo said as he walked toward the Temple.
He went down into the vault and picked the Blazing Medallion, and the Fist of Tebigong. Kimiko came down next and picked up the Orb of Energy and the Jetbootsu. "These Wu perfectly fit Starfire's powers. The others don't stand a chance," she said.
Then Omi came down and picked the Mantis Flip Coin, and the Silk Spitter. After that, Clay came down and picked the Mikado Arm and the Two Ton Tunic.
Once they had all picked their Wu, they came back to the garden prepared to fight. They walked to all four sides of the garden, then yelled, "Gong Yi Tanpai!"
Raimundo used his wind powers to fly in the air, then he came down and swung his Fist of Tebigong at Omi. However, Omi used his Instincts of the Tiger to sense the attack and dodge it.
"Ha! My Instincts of the Tiger perfectly match Spider-Man's senses of the spider!" Omi triumphantly screamed.
"It's Spider Sense, and look behind you!" Raimundo corrected as he pointed behind Omi.
Kimiko used the Orb of Energy to fire a green blast toward Omi. Omi sensed the blast with his Instincts of the Tiger and used his Mantis Flip Coin to dodge it.
Meanwhile, Raimundo was holding the Blazing Medallion and aiming his eyes toward Clay. Once he thought his aim was perfect, he used his Wu and fired two red-hot beams of heat from his eyes toward Clay.
Clay barely noticed in time and used the Two Ton Tunic to block the attack. Then Raimundo flew toward Clay's head and punched him in the face with the Fist of Tebigong, sending him flying into the temple, where he fell unconscious.
"One down, two to go!" Raimundo happily yelled as he started to fly toward Omi and Kimiko.
"Jetbootsu!" exclaimed Kimiko as she used her Wu to fly in the air. "Poor Omi. The only one left who can't fly," Kimiko teased.
"Haha! But I do not need to fly! Mantis Flip Coin!" Omi yelled as he used his Wu to jump high above Kimiko. "Silk Spitter!" Omi screamed, using his Wu to shoot Kimiko to the ground in a ball of silk.
"Not so fast Omi. Blazing Medallion!" Raimundo screamed as he fired two beams of heat from his eyes at Omi.
Omi dodged by jumping into the air with the Mantis Flip Coin; he then fell downwards, landing on top of Raimundo. "It seems that I am winning this fight! I guess Spider-Man actually is the best hero," Omi boasted as he threw punch after punch to Raimundo's head.
"No way is Spider-Man best! Fist of Tebigong!" Rai screamed as he used his Wu to slam Omi to the ground.
Then Kimiko used her Orb of Energy to break out of the ball of silk that trapped her. Also, Clay stood up and walked back toward the others.
"Mikado Arm!" Clay screamed as he ran toward Omi and lifted him in the air. Then he spun him around a few times and threw him into Raimundo.
"OW!" Raimundo screamed as Omi slammed into him and sent him falling to the ground. "That's it! Blazing Medallion!" Raimundo yelled as he blasted Omi, thinking that he had actually tried to jump into him.
Omi was sent flying into Kimiko who was above Clay. When Omi hit, both him and Kimiko fell down and landed on Clay. "Time to finish this! Orb of Energy!" Kimiko screamed as she blasted Clay and Omi away from her. "I guess it's down to you and me Rai. Get ready! Orb of…"
Kimiko was interrupted by Master Fung, who had suddenly come outside. "Quick young Monks, come here! In my meditation, I have sensed something that could help us vanquish evil forever, or destroy the world,"
"Hold on. Clay and Omi are still pretty hurt from our fight. As the leader, I don't think they're in a good enough condition to go and fight right now," Raimundo said.
"What do you mean? I'm in perfect condition. I was not hurt in that fight at all!" Omi weakly yelled as he limped toward Master Fung.
"I'm sorry Omi, but I think Raimundo is right. You and Clay should sit this one out and rest. Kimiko and Raimundo will go on this mission," Master Fung said. "Anyway, what you'll have to do is go to New York and convince these two children to join us in our fight against evil," Master Fung said as he held up a drawing of the kids that he saw in his meditation.
"Wow, that's really detailed Master Fung. How do you draw this well?" Kimiko asked, staring at the highly detailed drawings. The two children were a boy and a girl of…perhaps the same age as the rest of them?
"That is not of importance. You must get on Dojo and get there as soon as possible. If Chase Young gets to them first, the world may once again fall into darkness," Master Fung replied.
Meanwhile, in the background, Dojo sneezed at the mention of his name. "My slacker senses are…tingling!"
"Got it! We'll be back as soon as possible," Raimundo said as he went out to the garden to hop on Dojo who was waiting (reluctantly, I might add).
"What about Shen Gong Wu?" Kimiko asked.
"We'll use the ones we have with us. Now go Dojo," Rai said.
"Alright already! I'm going I'm going," Dojo angrily muttered. "And just when Days of Our Lives was getting good…"

Once New York was within sight, Raimundo yelled, "Finally! We're here! I hate having to wait such a long time riding Dojo from place to place," Raimundo stated.
"Does a flying dragon ever get any respect anymore?" Dojo thought aloud.
"Quit being a crybaby Dojo," Kimiko said.
"Stop making fun of me or I'll drop you off at the Statue of Liberty," Dojo threatened.
"Alright, I'll stop! Just get us to the city," Raimundo said with annoyance.
Then Dojo flew down and dropped Kimiko and Raimundo off at one of the housing districts. "Here, once you search this group of houses, I'll fly you to next, unless you make fun of me, then you'll have to walk," Dojo said as he shrunk down and crawled inside of Kimiko's bag.
"Fine Dojo, we'll wake you up when we're done," Raimundo said as he started walking toward the first house.
Once he reached the front door, he rang the doorbell and waited. Once a woman came to the door, he held up the drawing and asked them if they had seen the kids.
The woman grabbed the picture and stared at it for a few seconds. Then she said, "Why yes, this is a drawing of that nice girl Alisha and her brother Jake. Last I heard of Jake was that he was starting fights in the next neighborhood. As for Alisha, she's probably just in the garden at her house, singing like she always does."
"Thanks a lot, we'll be going now," Kimiko said.
"Ok, bye," The woman said as she shut the door. "Such nice kids!"
"That was quick," Raimundo said after the door was shut.
"Yeah, all we have to do is listen for someone singing in their backyard.
Then they heard it. Someone singing in a voice fit for angels. When they ran to the fence of the house that they heard the person singing from and looked inside, they saw all sorts of fruits and vegetables growing at an alarming rate.
They saw a white girl that wore small brown boots, a pair of blue jeans, a green shirt, and had long brown hair. She calmly buried a sunflower seed; a few seconds later, it was a fully-grown plant.
"Hello," Kimiko said as she walked forward and greeted the girl. "Can we ask you some questions?"
"Why, what are you asking about?" Alisha worriedly asked.
"I see you've noticed your powers. We have powers too, and I just want to ask some questions," Kimiko replied.
"You do? I thought my brother and I were the only ones with special abilities.
"No, I have wind powers, she has fire powers, and two people back at the temple have earth and water powers," Raimundo explained.
"Really, we're not the only ones. There's a temple with other people like us?" Alisha questioned.
"Yeah, and at that temple, we train people to better control their powers," Kimiko explained.
"Hmmm…"
" C'mon. We came here to try and help you," Raimundo said.
"Hold on, let me think about this. We've finally settled down into this home that some very generous people allowed us to live in. I don't know if we should leave it so soon," Alisha said.
"It's alright, you can decide if you want to come or not. We're not forcing this on you," Kimiko explained.
"I think I should talk to my brother about this. You know, before I make my decision," Alisha decided.
"Alright, how far away exactly is your brother?" Kimiko asked.
"Yeah, some lady told me that he was starting fights in a neighborhood near here," Raimundo said.
"He's not starting fights. You see, he didn't react very well when our parents died. He lashed out and decided to try and seek vengeance on all of the people in the gang that killed our parents," Alisha said.
"Oh, that's what's happening. If you can tell us where he's probably fighting, we can get you there really fast," Raimundo said.
"I don't know, maybe I should go alone first. I don't know if I can really trust you guys just yet," Alisha explained.
"Come on. Please," Kimiko said.
"Oh alright. You can come," Alisha decided.
"Alright, this may look scary, but don't be startled by this," Kimiko warned. "C'mon out Dojo!'
"Huh, what, where am I?" Dojo asked as he uncoiled himself.
"Get big and fly us to next neighbor hood," Raimundo impatiently said.
"Alright. Oh, I see you picked up one of the new dragons," Dojo noted.
"Dragon? What dragon is the gecko talking about?" Alisha asked.
"That's what people that have powers like us are called. It's kind of like a title for warrior," Kimiko explained.
"That's kind of weird. Why dragon?" Alisha asked.
"Don't ask me? I'm just as confused as you," Raimundo replied.
"C'mon, c'mon, let's just make Dojo grow big and fly to your brother," Kimiko said.
"Got it," Dojo mumbled as he grew to forty-feet in length.
"AH!" Alisha screamed, pointing toward Dojo.
"Don't worry, he won't hurt you. He probably couldn't," Kimiko joked.
"Why do you always make fun of me?" Dojo asked..
"It's just fun. Now come on Alisha," Raimundo said.
"Ok, I guess he does seem pretty harmless, and you do kind of seem like nice people. I guess I'll come, but I better not fall off," Alisha warned.
"Good, now all you kids buckle your seat belts and prepare for lift off. Next stop, wherever Alisha tells me to go," Dojo said.

Meanwhile, Jake was finishing off the rest of the gang group he had been fighting. "That's it! Steel Fists!" Jake screamed as he morphed his hands into solid metal and punched the remaining two thugs in the stomach.
"Your power is remarkable, but your skill needs work. You're not moving quick enough," A man with long black hair and reptilian eyes said.
"Who are you to say anything about my fighting?" Jake asked as he ran forward and swung his fist toward the man.
"Pathetic. You obviously don't know who you're dealing with," The man confidently said as he brushed Jake's fist aside. "I am Chase Young."
"I don't care who you are, I see you have good fighting skills, and it's obvious you were watching those thugs fight. So you must be on their side!" Jake yelled as he lunged forward and swung his fists as hard as he could toward Chase.
"Yawn. You have to be more inventive," Chase corrected as ducked below the attack and preformed an uppercut to Jake's stomach.
"Agh!" Jake howled as he sent sprawling backward. "Ugh… How'd you do that?"
"Simple, I trained," Chase Young explained.
"Not even that is gonna save you now that I've set my sights on you! You're going down like the thug you are!" Jake screamed as he ran forward and swung his leg.
Chase grabbed it by the foot, and flipped him backward.
"Don't you see? If I was on the side of those gang members, I would have already killed you," Chase explained.
"Humph. I guess you do have a point. Why are you here?" Jake inquired.
"Simple, I want you to join me. I see you want the power to destroy this criminal group. I could grant you that," Chase said. "But I'll only offer it once."
"How do I know this isn't a trick? I need some time to think," Jake said.
"Very well, two minutes. If you have not decided by then, I will withdraw my offer," Chase warned.
Jake crossed his legs and sat down. He kept that pose for a minute, and then said, "Alright. Teach me. I would like to learn what you know,"
"So, you are accepting me as your teacher. You will work for me," Chase said. Hmm. Not very bright, are you boy?
"Hold on a sec, work for you? I'd like to learn what you know, but work for you?" Jake exclaimed with a startled look on his face.
Maybe I thought too soon. "It's a figure of speech. You won't really work for me. You'll just train under me," Chase explained.
"I don't know, what you just said makes me kind of suspicious. But I do need to learn your moves so I can really beat the larger thug groups. So I guess I have to say yes. I will," Jake decided.
"Good." Chase grinned as he radiated with chi. "Fool. You are now my servant," Chase said as he turned Jake into a jungle cat.
"Wait! What are you doing to me? This wasn't part of our deal!"
"You agreed with something, you just failed to specify what. I took it as agreeing to work for me. So I tricked you into being my eternal minion," Chase laughed.
"Agh! I can't believe I was so stupid! I knew not to trust anyone but myself! Now I see what trusting gives me! The only other person I can trust is my sister!" Jake screamed.
"No, learn only to trust yourself. I will train you as I said, but we will have to fight five certain people, and one of them is your sister." Chase said.
"What!? You're asking me to fight my sister??" Jake yelled in disgust.
"No, I'm TELLING you to fight your sister," Chase replied.
"Nuh-uh! No way!" Jake screamed.
"You will eventually choose to do it, but until then, you'll have to. You are bound by our deal. You are one of my many servants."
"That's it! I'm gonna find some way to regain my freedom! And when I do, I'll destroy you!" Jake hissed.
"That will never happen, and even if you did get free, you wouldn't be strong enough to defeat me," Chase laughed.
"I'll get stronger! Whatever it takes to destroy you!" Jake growled.
"Pathetic," Chase remarked as something caught his eye.
When he looked to see what it was, he saw Dojo and the monks.
Once Dojo descended completely, he said, "No! I'm too late."
"What happened Jake?" Alisha asked, staring at the tiger that was her brother.
"He was foolish enough to strike a deal with me. And he wasn't careful enough to avoid a few loop-holes in it. He is now my servant," Chase explained.
"How could you?" Alisha asked.
"I'm sorry. He tricked me. I thought he could help me beat the thugs responsible for killing our parents," Jake replied.
"It's alright! If we can beat Chase Young, we can earn back your freedom," Raimundo said. "Chase Young, I challenge you to a Xiaolin Showdown. If I win, Jake is set free! If you win, I'll be your servant."
Chase took a step forward then said, "Perfect, I'll be going home with two minions instead of one." Then they both yelled, "Gong Yi Tanpai!" Thus starting their fight.
Raimundo ran forward and said, "Typhoon Boom!" Then shot out a blast of wind that soared toward Chase Young.
Chase held out his hand and easily blocked the attack. His counter attack was jumping forward yelling, "Monkey Strike!"
"Repulse the monkey!" Raimundo screamed as he jumped in the air, kicked Chase in the stomach, and back flipped off him onto the ground.
"Strange… I thought I only taught Omi and that move. How did you learn it?" Chase asked.
"I saw Omi do it tons of times. I kind of just copied him," Raimundo explained.
"What happened to Omi anyway? Why isn't he here?"
"We got into a battle and I kind of banged him up pretty bad. He was too injured to come on this mission."
"Too bad, now he won't be here to save you," Chase said as he ran forward.
C'mon, think. What move would Omi do? Oh yeah! He'd use this one. Raimundo thought as backed up a little. "Charging Bear!" Rai yelled.
"Repel the Beast!" Chase Young screamed, slamming Raimundo back.
"Alright! No more trying to copy Omi. I'm doing things my way! Air Assault!" Raimundo screamed as he launched a barrage of air spikes toward Chase Young.
Chase blocked dozens of the spikes at lightning speed, but dozens more cut through his armor and stabbed into him. After the attack was over, Chase looked down at his sliced armor, then transformed into his giant reptilian form. "That's it, it's time to finish this fight and take you in as my eternal slave," Chase hissed.
"Sorry, not gonna happen. I'm saving Jake," said Raimundo.
Then Chase Young lunged forward and tackled Raimundo to the ground. He slashed Raimundo over and over again. The cuts were deep and wide. Raimundo's chest was getting torn apart.
No, I have to beat Chase, I can't lose like this! I'm gonna have to unlock my Shoku powers. C'mon strength. Come to me. Rai thought as Chase tore into him.
Then Rai started to glow, and tons of wind rushed to him. It started spinning around him like a shield, and sent Chase Young flying off him. A few seconds later, the air disappeared and Raimundo was normal again.
"Whoa… What just happened?" Rai asked.
"You tapped into your Shoku Power in that moment of extreme danger. With that strength, you could become unstoppable. Too bad I'm going to kill you before you can control it!" Chase screamed as he ran forward and started to jump toward Raimundo. Right as he was about to hit him, Rai sidestepped and punched Chase in the ribs.
"C'mon! That all you got Chase? If it is, I won't even need my Shoku Powers to defeat you," Raimundo confidently stated.
Chase let out a mighty roar, then ran forward and threw a flurry of punches. When Raimundo started blocking them, he got cocky. Once he became too full of himself, a punch slammed into his stomach, followed by one that struck him on the cheek.
"That's it! It's time to finish this fight, once and for all!" Rai screamed as he backed up, ran forward, and jumped into the air.
"Agreed!" Chase yelled as ran forward and did the same.
Right as they were about to collide in mid-air, Raimundo kicked toward Chase's legs, but he dodged and threw a punch toward Raimundo.
However, Rai blocked the attack and threw a kick toward Chase's head. Chase ducked to dodge the kick, and punched as hard as he could toward Raimundo. Rai barely dodged the attack by twisting, then he grabbed Chase Young's wrist and slammed him to the ground.
"You are much better than I originally thought, it seems that I can't hold back against you," Chase Young admitted.
"So it seems you underestimated me. That was a big mistake. Anyway, you're going down!" Rai screamed as he leapt forward swinging his fist as hard as he could at Chase Young, who simply blocked it with his palm and kicked Raimundo in the stomach.
"Even though you're strong, you're still not good enough to beat me," Chase said.
"Yes I am!" Raimundo said as he flew into the air and held out one of his Shen Gong Wu. "Blazing Medallion!" he yelled, blasting two beams out of his eyes toward Chase.
When the beams hit, a giant explosion erupted and sent a dust cloud twenty feet in every direction.
Chase Young merely walked out of the cloud unscathed and said, "Fool, I cannot be beat by mere Shen Gong Wu. You'll have to do better than that if you want to win."
"Oh, I will. Wudai Star, wind!" Rai screamed as he gathered all the wind he could and launched it toward his enemy.
The blast soared through the air and slammed into Chase, but he still wasn't injured. "Still only using the powers of a Wudai Warrior I see, pathetic. You should use your Shoku powers, if you don't, then you won't stand a chance," Chase said as he brushed some dust off of his reptilian hide.
"I hate to admit it, but you're right! I wouldn't stand a chance, but the thing is… I have my Shoku powers! Shoku Star, wind!" screamed Raimundo as he formed wind all around his body and released several super charged blasts at Chase.
The attacks slammed into Chase Young and sent him flying back twelve feet. Once he got up he said, "I see you've done it, you've tapped into your Shoku powers. Now our fight will truly begin."
"I guess so. Now's the time that I start winning!" screamed Raimundo as he flew forward tackled Chase.
Rai forced him to the ground, landed on top of him, and started pummeling him with as many punches as he could throw. After around fifteen punches, Chase pushed Raimundo off of him and jumped forward, biting Raimundo's shoulder.
"Agh!" Raimundo screamed as he pushed Chase away and grabbed the tooth marks left from the bite. "That really hurt! Seriously! Biting! That's low!"
"How dare you mock me? Viper Strike!" Chase yelled, running forward and thrusting his palm into Raimundo's chest.
With great effort, Raimundo absorbed the force of the blow, and grabbed Chase Young by the wrist. Then he squeezed it hard and twisted it behind Chase's back. Once he was directly behind him, Rai bent his leg, and drove his knee into Chase's back. Chase Young was sent sprawling on the ground. "No! I will not be defeated by you."
"But you will. I can't allow you to take the freedom of a Xiaolin dragon to be. I will end you! Shoku Star, wind!" screamed Raimundo as he shot an enormous blast of wind at Chase.
When the blast hit, Chase was pushed all the way back into a concrete wall that broke upon him hitting it. "That is only the beginning of your powers. You will have to use them to their full extent if you wish to defeat me," Chase scoffed.
"You want that, huh? Well then, try this on for size. Shoku Wind gauntlets!" Raimundo screamed as he created miniature tornados around his hands and charged forward.
"This is better, but still not good enough. It will fail, same as the one before," Chase said as he ran toward Raimundo as well. "Sparrow Eating Dirt!" he screamed as he ducked low and tripped Raimundo with a sliding kick.
"I can use these Tornado Fists to beat you, just wait and see. Take this!" Rai screamed, throwing blow after blow until one finally hit.
Upon impact, the tornado on Rai's hand added a drilling affect to the punch. One powerful enough pierce Chase's hide and tear into his body.
"AAAAAGH!" Chase roared as he grabbed his wound and jumped back ten feet. "That was slightly stronger than I thought. You've gotten better."
"Yep, and this move will be the end of you. It's already injured you pretty bad!" Rai yelled as he once again charged at Chase Young and swung his fists.
"Plowing Yak!" Chase yelled as he dodged Raimundo's attack and knocked him to the ground. "Fox Stomping Grapes!" Chase screamed as he started stomping his foot on Raimundo's chest over and over again.
No! I can't lose now. Not when everyone's depending on me. I know, I'll use one of the moves Chase does. Rai thought as he cringed in pain. "I got it! Mantis Kick!" Raimundo yelled as he pulled his legs to his chest, then launched both of them upward into Chase's stomach.
The force of the attack sent Chase seven feet backward. Raimundo used this time to get up and say, "Shoku powered Air Assault!"
Hundreds of giant wind spikes soared through the air and slammed into Chase. The attack tore apart various parts of his hide and left deep cuts.
"That, is more like it," Chase said. "I see in you what I see in Omi. Perhaps, even more. I no longer want to force you to be my servant, you won't be truly evil…but perhaps, over time, you will choose to be." Then he vanished without a trace.
"Good job Rai!" Kimiko cheered.
"It was no problem… Chase was nothing." Raimundo groaned. "Anyway, you're free Jake," Raimundo weakly said as he walked over to the dragon of metal. "Now that your saved and all, go talk to your sister about coming with us. I don't want that whole battle to have been fought in vain."
"Alright, I'll talk with her," Jake said as he walked over to Alisha and started whispering.
They walked around the edge of the building and started talking in hushed voices.
"We've never met these people before, how can we trust them?" Jake asked.
"They risked everything to save you, and they seem nice," Alisha countered.
"You're way to kind and trusting. How can you just agree to go away with people you've never met before without a second thought?" Jake asked.
"First of all, I'm not too trusting, you're too untrusting. Second off all, You owe them your soul. They saved you. Show them a little respect," Alisha said.
"You're right about that one, but I still don't know if we should just go with them immediately. Make them prove that they're worth trusting. That's all I have to say," Jake said.
"They did, they gave you back your freedom, and your life. Now I was skeptical at first, but I was certain when I saw that guy risk everything to save you, my mind was set," Alisha stated.
"Oh alright, but if this doesn't turn out well, it's not my fault."
"Good, now let's go back there and try to fit in."
"Ok, I'll try."
"Good, now come on. Let's not keep them waiting."
A few seconds later, Jake and Alisha walked back from around the corner stopped a twenty feet from Dojo.
"Have you decided yet?" Kimiko asked as she walked toward Alisha.
"Yes, we're coming with you," Alisha said as she walked by Kimiko.
"Yep," Jake agreed as he walked by Dojo and hopped onto him right behind the place Raimundo was laying down. "Are you coming you two
"Coming," Alisha said in a cheery voice.
"Yeah yeah, were coming. Got it?!" Kimiko said in a shouting voice.
"I know," Jake called back, frightened. "What's her problem?" Jake asked as he turned to Raimundo.
"Don't tell her I said this, but she has big anger issues."
"I can kind of tell."
"Don't worry, you get used to it. In fact, after a while, you get to like to hear her get mad. Especially after you prank her."
"You mean you're the prankster of the group?" Jake asked.
"Pretty much, why?"
"Can I join you?" Jake asked.
"Sure, why not?" Rai answered.
Then, Alisha and Kimiko jumped on Dojo, who then flew back to China.

Once the monks were back at the temple, Master Fung said, "Why hello young monks. Are you ready to begin teaching the new dragons in training?"
"Sure Master Fung, but can I get some treatment for these injuries in my fight with Chase?" Rai asked.
"Yes Raimundo. Omi and Clay have recovered, they can teach the new monks while you rest," Master Fung replied.
"Don't tell me. Without me, the mission was a complete failure. I knew I should've come!" Omi said as he ran out of the temple with his eyes closed.
"Thanks Master Fung, and no Omi. We got the new monks, but I had a pretty bad run-in with Chase Young," said Raimundo.
"Oh no! He probably tore you to shreds without my help. Why didn't you let me come? Why?" Omi asked.
"Actually, I beat him. He actually taught me how to use my Shoku Powers and I used them to beat him," Raimundo said.
"He taught you? I thought he only taught me! Did he forget about me sense I was not there. That must've been it," Omi said.
"No, Chase said he saw in me what he did in you, and even more," Raimundo corrected.
"What?! He must have been tricking you. He was probably trying to get you to join him in his fight against good. He really knows that I am the best. Who doesn't?" Omi confidently asked.
"Master Fung knows you're not! He made me the Shoku Warrior, not you. In fact, now I know I'm better than you. Especially since Chase taught me how to use my Shoku Powers!" Raimundo argued.
"He was trying to trick you! He did not really teach you your powers. If you think he did, show me them, I'll tell you if they're Shoku Powers or not!" Omi yelled.
"You wouldn't know! I'll get Master Fung to see!" Rai yelled.
"Fine!" Omi finished.
"Master Fung, Omi has doubts about whether I really have my Shoku Powers unlocked or not. Can you come here and watch my new moves so that you can tell him that they are Shoku attacks?" Rai asked.
"I will watch, but then you must go rest," Master Fung replied.
"Thanks Master Fung! Here it goes… Shoku Star, wind!" Raimundo screamed as he lifted himself up on a tornado, created seven tornados that encircled him, and then released a giant blast of wind that shook the ground when it was fired.
"That… Was not Shoku power," Fung admitted.
"Ha! In your head!" Omi screamed.
"It's in your face, and what do you mean? I put every last bit of my strength into that!" Rai said.
"As I was saying, that was a step above Shoku power. You used all of your energy in that attack. If you had not, it would have been Shoku power. But since you did, you definitely need your rest. You will soon faint if you do not," Master Fung stated.
"Got it, no problem there, all of the sudden I feel really sleepy…" Raimundo collapsed onto the ground and slipped into unconsciousness.
To be continued…
