Gaaah...Sorry these took so long! I wish I was quicker with them! Alright, so speedwrites as requested by Revolutionarymind, Raikim, Omi, Clay/Emma, Other various characters! Enjoy!

Man! I Feel Like a Woman (Shania Twain)

Tonight, she wasn't Kimiko, Xiaolin Dragon of Fire. Tonight, she was Kimiko Tohomiko, dancing queen. It hadn't been difficult to get out and Dashi did she need this! She'd given Keiko a call, grabbed the golden tiger claws, and the next thing they knew they were inside one of the hottest clubs they knew.

Tonight, there would be no sweaty socks thrown around, no fart jokes, no nasty discussions on the relative deliciousness of barbeque sauce on food items. She was out, wearing as much glitter as possible, and dancing with her friends. And it was absolutely perfect. She could do anything she wanted to, she could hit on that dude in the open front shirt, she didn't have to think of how practical her hair would be for fighting, she could get as crazy as she wanted.

I Won't Back Down (Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers)

People didn't think of brave when they first met Raimundo, they generally thought "slacker," but looking at him now, facing off againt Wuya at full power, with not a trace of fear, Kimiko couldn't think of anything else. He was a fighter, that much was obvious.

"Come now Raimundo. Think of all we can do together," she said, offering him one last chance to leave without a fight.

"You're gonna have to drag me to hell first Witch," he spat, the winds gathering around him in a maelstrom.

Bad Reputation (Joan Jett)

Ashley did not care what people thought of her. Whether it was at school or dealing with the Xiaolin-Heylin conflict. If she wanted to wear a purple mini and a tube top, she would, if she wanted to make money rather than take over the world, well, hey, not anybody else's problem. She still was making top marks in AP Bio and could kick Xiaolin ass anyday of the week.

And of course, she wasn't going to go groveling at the egotistical jackasses, like Chase Wuya, or Hannibal like Jack. She was in this for herself and she would do whatever it took to get to the top.

Violet Mariner (William Ascenzo)

Just what he'd always needed. His own Evil Navy! These plans were his best yet. He could picture himself now, at the prow of his flagship, the salty sea breeze in his face, facing the waves as only an evil conqueror could. His legendary laugh would echo defiantly against the storm and his evil wardrobe would be so epic, his cape, he would have to have a cape, billowing behind him like a shadow and his glorious evil hat would make years of sailing camp worth it.

Kashmir (Led Zeppelin)

It was moments like these where he felt old. He'd traveled through the seas of time so often, and the ice had made him so, so old. He'd seen such great things, he'd seen the temple as a skeleton of a building, he'd had a Showdown with Grand Master Dashi, he'd witnessed his magic first hand, yet he couldn't shake some images from his head.

Every time he closed his eyes, his mind was wracked with his friends, aged and decrepit, dying at the hands of Jack Spicer's robots. He saw Master Monk Guan, the discoloured, pus oozing scar across his eye, transform into that scorpion creature. Only he remembered Chase Young drinking the soup again, the way his skin rippled and contorted as he changed again. He remembered the chill of the ice, preserving him for all time.

And yet despite these things, the time vortex called to him. Time was like a river and he knew the rivers better than anyone else. The others could deal with the problems of the present; matters of Time were his domain. He would learn from the past and change the future.

Heroe (Enrique Iglesias)

This felt perfect, lying here with her in his arms. She felt at the same time so strong and so fragile. Even though she could more than handle anything that came their way, he wanted to protect Kimiko from whatever they faced. He pulled her closer, God he wanted to be everything to her. He was ready for tomorrow, they would start on one of their greatest adventures and come what may, he would always have tonight, lying with her with their heartbeats in sync.

The Card Cheat (The Clash)

She was always a gambling woman. She'd bet her life on her luck more times than she could count, and while her small bets never paid off (but then again, what's a magicical doodad now and then anyway?), but the big ones did. It didn't hurt that she tended to have a trick up her sleeve, but this time she didn't.

A long time ago she'd bet her heart, long shot odds, and real life wasn't the movies, the under dog didn't win in the end. But then again, she was living a comic book life, the deck still had one last ace and it somehow found its way to her door.

Bad Horse Chorus – Reprise (Doctor Horrible's Sing-along-Blog)

"Bad Oswald," muttered Gray, the girl not particularly happy with the horse's attempt to bite her.

Is It Any Wonder? (Keane)

He'd done so much for the temple, he'd stuck his neck out for them and they threw it back in his face. For the last year, he'd thought he'd been doing the right thing, that he'd been one of the good guys, but he'd been punished for trying to do the right thing. Maybe the hag was right. Maybe his talents were being wasted on the Xiaolin side. He was done sticking up for them, it only lead to humiliation and he never got his due.

Postcards from Far Away (Coldplay)

Even when she was too busy with the company to help at the Temple, she could always read the cards Rai sent her. One from every place they went, so that when she couldn't be there, she could still be a part of their adventures.

Teenage Dream (Boyce Avenue)

When he looked at her like that, the smug curve of his mouth, the slight wrinkle of his nose, the gleam in his eye, it brought her back. For a moment, she was a young dragon in training, competing with him over training or just wasting one of their rare days off together. She couldn't have imagined then what their lives would turn out to be, but she wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

They were older now, to state the obvious, there was more gray in her hair than black, his eyes were surrounded by laugh lines, but still, every time, she felt so special.

"Kim, it's our song," he said, turning up the radio, taking her hand, and singing along with the music. "Raimundo is so sexyfine, he's so sexyfine he blows your mind, but you can't have him…"

"I still can't believe this is actually a song," she said. inspite of herself, she smiled as they swayed in time with the music.

1) Shush yourself. I like this song and nobody can tell me otherwise.

2) I'm firmly of the belief that this is Rai's themesong.

3) I like Katnappe...I think she's awesome!

4) Dang you Homestuck Fandom! Why is something that makes such great music full of such terrible people?

5) Omi as the eternal time traveler, I think it works out. :^)

6) Even though this is in Spanish and Rai's Brazilian so he would speak Portuguese, this version of this song is my Raikim themesong.

7) I could see Emma as a card shark.

8) I'm not sorry.

9) Eh. Not my best, not my worst.

10) I like this one. This is one of my favorite songs, but it's too short.

11) Listen to this version. It's amazing and wonderful and I cite him as my reason for loving Katy Perry music sung by guys...
