Wherever You Will Go

Kimiko POV

As soon as we got back to the temple, we immediately rushed Omi to Master Fung. It has been a few hours already and we still hadn't heard anything about Omi's condition as Raimundo, Clay, and I paced outside of the room that they both were in.

"Oh come on already Master Fung!" Raimundo said impatiently.

"Rai, give it some time Omi did take some serious damage we all know that," Clay said, "all we can do right now is wait partner."

"Dude, what do you think we've been doing!" he growled a little in response as he looked at Clay.

"Rai, it's not really going to do Omi any good if we keep wanting to know if he's doing alright," I said.

Raimundo turned towards me with a look in his eyes that I have never seen before; real fear.

"Kimiko, didn't you see how bad he was?! For all we know he could be…." Raimundo shook his head.

"He's going to be fine you'll see," I said trying to comfort him.

Suddenly the door opened and all three of us turned towards it to see that Master Fung had come out.

"Master Fung, how is he?!" Raimundo asked.

"He's doing fine. It will take some time for him to heal so for now he will remain on bed rest leaving the three of you to get the shen gong wu," Master Fung replied closing the door as we all sighed with relief.

"Can we see him?" Clay asked.

"Not right now, Clay, Omi is asleep," Master Fung told him as he left.

"Well it's good to know that Omi is going to be fine huh Rai?" I said as I turned to Raimundo.

Raimundo was looking at the door with his fists clenched making me sigh.

"Raimundo…"

"Don't, Kimiko, I know what you're going to say. It is my fault that Omi is hurt. If I had just paid attention I would have been able to move out of the way," Raimundo said and before Clay or I could say anything he turned and left.

"Will he be ok?" I asked.

"Don't worry about him Kimiko. As soon as he sees Omi he'll be fine," Clay said assuringly as I looked up at him and smiled.

"Yeah I guess you're right."

Raimundo POV

I couldn't take it anymore. After Master Fung told us that Omi was going to be ok I was relieved, yes, but I still felt guilty about what happened earlier. I couldn't get that image out of my head; Omi jumping in front of the attack to protect me.

"That should have been me not…" I yelled as I punched the wall making it crumble a little.

I winced as my hand started bleeding a bit.

"Hey there you are, Raimundo."

I turned to see that Dojo was looking at me.

"Oh hey, Dojo," I replied, "what's up?"

"Did you hear the good news? Omi is going to be fine! He sure had all of us worried sick," Dojo said.

"Yeah, he did," I closed my eyes and chewed my lip.

"Hey, Raimundo, don't beat yourself up over this. It wasn't your fault I saw what happened too ya know."

"But, Dojo, can't you see that it is my fault?! I could have moved out of the way, but I didn't!"

"You didn't see it coming."

"That's an excuse. I'm a Xiaolin Dragon in-training! I should have been prepared for Jack Spicer to do something like that especially after you guys got hit!" I told him.

Dojo looked at me for a few seconds.

"You really care for Omi don't you?"

I turned a bright red.

"What makes you say that, Dojo?"

"Trust me I've lived long enough to know when something is going on between two people and believe me you and Omi both like each other just like Clay and Kimiko like each other."

I thought about it for a second before realizing what he just said.

"Wait…Clay and Kimiko like each other? And how do you know Omi likes me?" I asked.

"You seriously didn't know about Clay and Kimiko? Wow you're really dense," Dojo said as I glared at him, "ok sorry, but just so you know whenever you aren't around and I'm with him, Omi talks about you all the time and not just in a friend sort of way. He really looks up to you."

I looked at Dojo completely shocked and I started feeling even more heat coming from my face. As I was about to say something, I heard Kimiko's voice.

"Raimundo, Omi's awake!"
