Even after the departure of the Xiaolin warriors, Jack was still being nagged by Wuya, the purple flying ghost yelling at Jack to God for losing such a useful Shen Gong Wu. "I can't believe you would lose the Xang Xee Belt! You're the boy genius aren't you? Yet you're so stupid you fell for a trick! The belt wasn't removed, and you would have known if it truly was! You punk! You idiot!" she yelled, watching the boy cower before her, even though she was just a ghost. "Maybe I should replace you.. it doesn't seem to be a bad idea after this failure," the old ghost sighed, flying away.

Jack watched her leave and started thinking to himself. "If I get the belt back then I need to also make some strong robots so the Xiaolin losers can't beat me," he said quietly, a finger tapping his chin as he stared up in the air. "Then there's the problem I don't have a single Shen Gong Wu anymore.. besides my Jet Bootsu.. dammit." He sighed, the Xiaolin monks so far ahead that even a ghost who couldn't do anything but be scary was considering to leave him, then he'd have no way of finding the Shen Gong Wu.

He got up and went to his computer and opened a document, adding something to a list of inventions to make. "Shen Gong Wu finder," he said, letting his fingers fly across the keys. When he was finished typing and the noises stopped, he looked to make sure it was all spelled correctly. "Alright, it's right under my tunnel driller." He thought about what he could do with the drill. Any Wu under the ground he could get to first. Drilling tunnels... moving undetected undergound.. his eyes grew wide and he smiled cruely and laughed his evil laugh as a devilish plot formed in his mind, and he ran to get building.

In a few minutes Jack had gathered all his tools and parts as he started using his genius mechanic skills and started building his tunneler. When it was done, he would use it to break into the Xiaolin vault and steal back the Xan Xee Belt, and the Golden Tiger Claws. He wouldn't even need the other Wu for now. With the claws he would teleport to the new Wu and get them and leave before the others showed up, and if they ever met he could defeat them. He would basically be invincible.

/In the Xiaolin temple, training area.

Master Fung looked down to the group sitting in front of him. "Today we will practice our fighting. After Jack used the Xang Xee Belt, if he ever gets ahold of it again, we can't let him have even the slighest chance," he explained, stepping back. "Each of you, try to land a hit of any kind of me," he commanded.

Theyall looked at him like he was crazy though, surely they would all hit him, and none wanted to hurt him.

"Are you sure there Master Fung?" Clay asked, looking at his sensei as he stood up. "If we hit you it'd hurt mightly bad," he explained, stating his concern for the well-being of their teacher.

Master Fung just shook his head. "If you think it'll be that simple then go ahead, hit me."

Clay had a confused look on his face. You couldn't see his eyes, you could tell by his mouth form, but shrugged it all off and ran at the man, throwing a punch just about two and a half feet from Master Fung. As he reached out to hit, Master Fung side-stepped and clay missed. Before he knew anything else, Master Fung tripped him and turned back to the others.

"Next."

Omi went up next and moved slowly to Master Fung's side, motioning to Crow, who did the same. He looked at Alyssa, who sacrificed herself and ran up to the old man. He did not seem interested in her and jumped, letting her run behind him as Crow ran to his side and sent a basic punch, letting Master Fung turn and catch it. He tried to rip his fist back and Master Fung held on, but instead of hitting Master Fung, the old man pulled the same stunt and hit Crow in his stomach, making him fall on the ground and clutch it, releasing his fist.

As soon as he did he heard a yell.

"WATER!"

He quickly turned, letting his foot reached out for a kick as Omi landing back a few feet. "If you didn't yell then I wouldn't have known you were there Omi, and it would have been perfect to hit me," he explained, taking a head count in his mind. He saw four of them, but Raimundo and Kimiko had yet to show up, and Alyssa was also out of sight. Master Fung turned the wrong direction and then the next thing he knew was that both of his arms were being held on to tightly.

"Got ya!" Alyssa said. "Do it now!" She turned Master Fung to show Raimundo and Kimiko running at him, both of fists side by side for a double-pronged strike. Alyssa let go just as the punches were about to hit, but as she did, Master Fung fell sideways and tripped the two running at him, and let them fly into Alyssa.

He shook his head. "They were all nice but none were thought out enough. You shouldn't just rush at me and underestimate me for being old. I'm training you for a reason," he said. "You may use the obstical course and spar for the rest of the day unless a Shen Gong Wu reveals itself." He walked off. He knew if Alyssa didn't let go then he would have been hit. He underestimated his students as much as they did him.

As he left the six of them got up and looked at each other. "Well that sucked," Raimundo complained, stretching slightly and looking at the others. "I don't think Jack will ever be that good, especially since we have the Xang Xee Belt, so he can't even win a fight against any of us, not that he ever could." He looked around. "Hmm.. who to be my opponent today.. I've fought Clay and Omi.."

"You didn't win either of those fights," Crow brought up, making the others laugh at Raimundo who just glared at Crow. "Don't you learn picking fights doesn't work out?" he joked.

"Oh shut up," Raimundo told him. "You think it's so easy to fight them and win then you do it!" His eyes lit up slightly and he thougth of a plan. "I know! Let's have a tag team. Crow and Clay against Omi and I," he suggested, the others debating it. Crow was all game to have Clay as a partner. Clay had been nice since he first saw him.

"Well I ain't got no problem with it as long as Raimundo doesn't feel like losing again," he said, walking over and standing next to Crow. "This will be mighty interesting."

Omi looked at Raimundo. "Of course I'll fight!" he said quickly. "But we're going to have to do this so we don't go too far. First death ends it!" he declared, making everybody jump and stare at the monk, who's ahnd was in the air, his pointer finger raised to the sky and a victory look on his face. "Just kidding! First to cry uncle on either side loses."

"Sick sense of humor Omi," Raimundo said, looking at him.

Alyssa and Kimiko ran out of the way, since the two teams were staring at each other. Crow ran up to Raimundo, and each of them threw a punch, but it turned into a game of bloody knuckles when they found out they used the same hand and Raimundo retreated, shaking his hand.

Crow shook his had too and looked up at Raimundo. "We're idiot," he laughed, having fun. His laugh wasn't his normal laugh though, it was a bit more twisted. The others looked at him, but he shook his head. "Ignore it."

Raimundo this time went and ran upnd allowed Crow to catch his arm that he swung wildly, and tripping Crow making them fall on Crow's back. Raimundo's arm was crushing Crow's throat. "Tap out!" he said, but Crow didn't make a single motion and continue choking. This torture obviously would be effective in a few more seconds.

As Crow originally ran up to Raimundo, Clay pulled out a lasso and started swinging it as Omi ran up to him. Quickly, he threw the rope and caught it around Omi's feet and tripped him, and started dragging him closer, until Omi slipped out and lunged at Clay, kicking him in mid air. Clay staggered back a few feet but all was good when he regained his composure and returned another punch to Omi who jumped up again, sending him backwards slightly. "Whew Omi, you sure do jump high," he commented.

"Oh yes Clay, I most certainly do," Omi said proudly, as he looked over and saw Raimundo suffocating Crow, who didn't seem to even care. He was sure everything would be alright and returned to fighting Clay, but a small tremor happened and made him fall on the ground.

Raimundo got off of Crow, and helped to him his feet. "I guess this battle is over," he said, looking around. "Did anyone else notice that earthquake?" he asked. "I don't think that was natural.." He looked at the others. "Quickl, let's go to the vault!"

All six of them ran over to their vault to see Jack Spicer standing outside. "Hello Xiaolin losers," he said. The Xang Xee belt was on his wasit and the Golden Tiger Claws were attached to his hand like a glove. "Looks like you're just in time to watch your Shen Gong Wu disappear!" he said evily. He slashed the air and made a portal back home. "See you at the next Wu!" he taunted. "Or don't show. It doesn't matter, either way I'll have it!" he laughed, jumping in the riff and disappearing.

Raimundo turned and stared at the others in horror. "He has the two Shen Gong Wu that we had the most trouble with him owning.. at once!" he sighed. Kimiko put her hands on his arm.

"Don't worry Rai, we'll get the next one and win one of them back!" she said cheerful, but none of them thought it was worth the effort to smile. They were all thinking of the pain they'd have to go through just to get the Shen Gong Wu from him.

Master Fung appeared behind them all. "This is most troubling," he said, shaking his head, feeling another earthquake. "It's obvious he drilled his way into the vault."

Alyssa looked up at their master. "He only took two Wu!" she said frowning. "The two for the best combination possible. Pain and teleportation.."

Master Fung shook his head. "In the darkness, only a happy thought will light the path." He left them all to ponder the thought, and then Dojo appeared with the scroll.

"Hey guys! A new Shen Gong Wu!" he said, transforming, quickly hurrying them all on. "I bet you if we hurry, we'll get the Sun Chi Lantern before Jack is even back to Wuya to know about it!"

As he flew away, Kimiko read the scroll to the others. "The Sun Chi Lantern.. it seems to take energy from surrounding others and temporarily store it in yourself for extra power!" she exclaimed. "Dojo, hurry it up!"

"I'm going as fast as I can go!" Dojo shot back, flying quickly through the air into another desert.

/In a desert, a lone tree stands, which is where Dojo lands.

Jack was no where to be seen, and Omi looked around by the tree, and then up. "Get it so we can go Omi!" Clay called, from on the dragon. Seeing how it was so simple, Omi was the only one to get off of Dojo, and search. He climbed up the tree and still searched. "I don't see it!" he called. "Do you think Jack Spicer has taken it?"

"I think you're looking on the wrong side of the tree!" Raimundo called, making Omi climb to the other half and see the Latern, running and grabbing it. "Yes!" he cried, jumping down, and running back over to the team. "Dojo, take us to Jack Spicer's house once more please!" the young monk commanded, jumping on Dojo with the Wu. "We will need a Xiaolin Showdown in order to defeat Jack Spicer," he said. "So if we leave now then we don't have to wait, and as you know, the early worm kills the bird!"

"Early bird catched the worm," Kimiko corrected.

"Oh come on you weren't even close," Raimundo sighed as they flew.

/Outside of Jack Spicer's house.

Jack looked up, five people standing with him. Only these people were robots, and had skill like Jack did, only not half as good from the training they all had. Jack was sunbathing as his robots trained and sparred for their AI to go up and be even stronger. He was wearing his belt and claws as usual, and thinking everything was just easy going for him.

Then he saw Dojo. "Damn not now," he sighed, getting up and running to grab his jacket, then running back outside, seeing them land.

Omi jumped off and pointed at Jack. "Ja-"

"Jack Spicer, gimme back the Wu, blah blah blah," Jack mocked. "You want it, come and get it. Bots, attack!" he yelled, sending out his five robots.

They each had a specific target that only they could beat. The one after Alyssa was destroying her, like it perfectly memorized her fighting style. "What the hell!" she yelled, getting hit in her stomach, and resorted to just blocking as she felt the pain, but couldn't whine about it unless she wanted more.

Crow had the same trouble, his bot seemed to just block more and more. "Spicer programmed them to copy our moves!" he said angrily. "I can tell since this guy throws his punches the way I do, and blocks and counters like me! All I can do it hope to hit!" he yelled, hoping the others would have more luck.

Clay found his dangerous. It was heavier than Clay, who used his weight against his opponents. "They know out every move then?" he called back, just barely avoiding a hit with his opponent's metal stomach. "This isn't going to be possible! Who got lucky and didn't have one? They gotta fight Spicer!" he yelled, jumping out of the way of a lasso.

Omi and his bot were barely moving. Each of them were in a stance, as if building chi, and then Omi yelled, but so did the fake bot. "TORNADO STRIKE!" Omi and the bot started using the tai-chi technique but kept hitting each other and fell back, Omi tired. "Kimiko, get Spicer!"

Raimundo was fighting with his bot and having just as much difficulty as the others were. Every move blocked.. every hit like his.. and then he thought of an idea. "Guys! Switch with someone else!" he called, just barely ducking a punch. he ran away from his bot.

Crow thought it a good idea. "Alyssa, switch!" he called, just in time to see her get kicked in the face. "You jerk!" he yelled at the bot, running and pouncing on it. "We're perfect for fighitng since yours is just a knockoff of my style!" he spat, beating up the bot until it stopped moving. "Perfect."

Alyssa blocked all of the "Crow's" moves until the opening from their training session came and she pushed back and then ran and punched, knocking it into a tree that was behind them. Alyssa mercilessly punched and destroyed the bot.

Omi switched with Clay, and Raimundo with Omi, leaving Clay to defeat the Raimundo-style.

Omi easily jumped over this bot and throw the lasso. He got into another chi building position behind the bot, and the dots on his forehead glowed. "TORNADO STRIKE!" he yelled, attacking the bot violently, not even giving it a small chance to win.

The switching seemed to work, no one having difficulty since they trained enough to finally get lucky against each other in battle. Raimundo though, couldn't beat the original Omi, so the bot was still tough until he got the help of Crow, Alyssa, and the real Omi. Crow came and landed behind Omi, shoving it into Alyssa who punched it back to Omi, who kicked it to Raimundo, who punched through it. "Thanks for the help," he said. "I should have switched with someone else, but no time for that."

They turned just in time to see Clay throw his weight against the Raimundo-style and have them all destroyed. "Alright! We win!" he cheered, taking a headcount. "Uh.. where's Kimiko?"

"Help!" cried the familiar voice of Kimiko. Jack was clutching onto her neck and holding her in the air.

"You you let go of her right now you bastard!" Raimundo yelled violently, running at Jack. Jack dropping Kimiko and ran at Raimundo, karate-chopping his side and sending him crashing down, an evil grin on Jack's face. "Man I love this belt!" he said, turning to face Kimiko again. "You're going to be my prisoner, and they'll have to go fetch me Shen Gong Wu to keep you alive!" Jack said evily.

Alyssa ran behind a tree to find Dojo holding the Sun Chi Lantern, shaking. "She's a goner!" he cried, having the Shen Gong Wu ripped from his hands. "Well this isn't a time to be rude!" he scolded, watching her run off.

"Kimiko!" she yelled, throwing the lantern at the girl.

"A lantern?" Jack asked, puzzled. "Why the?" He needed no more explanation, because Kimiko caught it and stood up, staring at Jack. "Sun Chi Lantern!" she cried. The energy from her five friends came to her. Water, earth, fire, wind, light and.. darkness. Kimiko shuttered at that feeling. She rushed at Jack, who tried to counter her with the same stunt he pulled with Raimundo, but Kimiko caught him with one hand, and punched him hard in his stomach with another. The punch made Jack go flying into a tree.

With no time wasted, Kimiko ran at Jack and attempted to punch him again.

"Golden Tiger Claws!" the boy yelled frantically, jumping into a portal and appearled to Kimiko's right, punching her hard and making her fall on the ground painfully. "Every hit makes me stronger,"he said viciously.

"Let's see how you like light Jack," Kimiko said rising slowly to a stand, an essessnce of Alyssa yelling it appeared, and Jack was punched by Kimiko in his side, making him fall in pain. "Or Wind!" He kicking him in the same side, causing more pain. "Let's try.. darkness." She felt the dangerous power grow in her hand. "I mean water!" she said as fast as possible, as she felt the evil go away. A final kick was administered to the side of Jack's face, and he fell on the ground.

Kimiko removed the Golden Tiger Claws and the Xang Xee belt and quickly ran off, but not before using the last of her extra chi power to destroy a few trees and mess up Jack's yard.

"My yard!" Jack yelled pathetically, as he got up, holding his side. "My parents are going to KILL me!"

No one listened to him though, as Kimiko walked back, helping Rai up, and then meeting up with the rest, their chi returning to them. "That was fun," she said. "There was so much power I gained.. and when I tried darkness though.." she looked at Crow. "Can't believe you have to live with it in you.. it's so evil."

Crow shook his head. "Don't care. Let's go," he said, as Dojo came out from hiding.

"Well, I say we burn this belt! It's nothing but problems!" Dojo complained. He transformed and let them all on, and started flying.

"I hope we never have to come here again," Raimundo said. "I don't think I could take another fight like that. Without the lantern we never would have won.."

"I dunno 'bout that one Rai," Clay said. "We had to use all of us to win."

/At the temple.

Master Fung was waiting for them all. "Ah, you're back," he said, taking the two Shen Gong Wu. "I'm going to put these away, but the Xang Xee Belt is going in a place none of you will know about," he explained, walking away.

Crow looked at them all with a sly look. "Anyone else realize his belt his black.. and the Xang Xee is black.. I know what place he's talking about." They all smiled. They all knew not to take Master Fung up on any challenges that involved fighitng.

/At Jack Spicer's house, in Jack's basement.

"You lost the belt AGAIN!" Wuya yelled, but Jack ignored her. "Be quiet Wuya! It's bad enough I'm not allowed to get a shipment of robot parts in for a month from my yard, I don't need you yelling at me as well!"

The boy stared at the ceiling as he laid down on the floor. "Maybe I should hire someone to work for me.."

(I swear, I'm going to write slower and better next time. I'm going to work on updating faster too..)
