Dojo flew through the skies, a bit glad there weren't many clouds out in their path. It was impossible to tell if there would be clouds later though. The best the dragon could do was listen to the idle chatter between his passengers, thought it was clear none of them had much to say either, except Omi who seemed ready to grab the orb and leave to practice it like he was stronger than all the others.

"And when I get the Orb of Tornami, I'll just use it to wash Jack Spicer away!" the young monk said eccentrically. "He'll realize that evil is not the way to be after going home empty handed and wet every time he leaves, and he'll join us on the Xiaolin side and fight for good! Oh.. right.. and you guys can help me fight him sometimes.." Omi said thoughtfully. He was oblivious to the looks he recieved from everyone, and since he met them all had been oblivious. Omi was full of himself but just didn't know.

"That's a great plan Omi," Raimundo said sarcastically. "I'm sure getting him wet will instantly make him run away." He shook his head, not even being able to think of something witty to tell Omi for having such a silly plan. Normally he could say something to annoy anybody, but he would let Omi figure out the flaws in his plan by himself.. or let someone else point them out.

"Now hold up there Omi, you can't just go and defeat Jack on your own. If he gets any Shen Gong Wu like that Xang Xee Belt, you'll never beat him," the cowboy explained, raising his hat slightly. "And with these Shen Gong Wu, you just never know what'll happen."

"You got that right," Dojo called. "I wish I could just remember where they all were so we didn't have to do all these showdowns and fighting, and I could stop having all these annoying symptons when certain Wu reveal themselves. I feel great just thinking about that."

"Keep your symptons to yourself, Dojo," Alyssa called to the dragon. It took her to yell pretty loud to be heard over the wind when she was in the back and the dragon's head was in the front. Her natural voice just wasn't loud enough like the others.

Dojo didn't respond to her, yet he had heard her. He instead started to dive down, causing everyone to hold on tightly. He was flying nearly straight down to a rooftop, and barely changed direction at the last few seconds, before landing on top of the building and letting them off.

"Nice landing," Crow said, walking weakly over to the roof's edge which was barracaded with a slightly wall that Crow grabbed onto, trying to regain his balance. "More warning next time," he said, breathing a bit heavily. He had been thinking about how to get the orb in case Spicer was there first and when he felt the sudden speed pick up, he almost flew off and was trying to get rid of the fear.

"Sorry kids, I didn't mean to scare anyone like that," Dojo said. "I just wanted to land soon since we're in a town and don't want people to see me," he explained, examining around. Crow was the only one who seemed to have an impact though.

"Wouldn't have been scared if I was paying attention," Crow said, glancing around at the others. He let go of the wall and shook his head to get hair out of his eyes. "Anyway I have a plan to get the orb. I thought of a plan, just didn't get to finishing due to a sudden drop," he said, his eyes shifting to look down at Dojo.

"Let's hear it," Kimiko said, looking over the edge of the building. She stared down at the streets as if to search for something. The only things she saw were just a few passersby walking along, nothing out of the ordinary. "Wait guys," she said after continuing to observe for another minute.

Kimiko quickly moved back. Jack was freely roaming the town, the Orb of Tornami in his hands. It was a surprise he hadn't fled yet. "Crow, he's down there. What's your plan, before he runs away with the Wu," she rushed.

"Right. I'm gonna turn each of you in a random direction, and you run that way. We're going to cut him off. Dojo, get ready to fly in case it comes to that," he said, not waiting for the dragon to complain. He moved to turn Kimiko straight towards Jack. He moved Omi to the right, Clay to the left, and pointed Raimundo in the same direction as Kimiko. "Move farther than she does." He looked at Alyssa. "Stay with Dojo."

The monks all took their positions, each on a rooftop except for Kimiko and Raimundo. They had decided to sneak around and moved farther away, in between buildings to sneak opposite, until Crow jumped down with them. He motioned for Kimiko to go out. "Distract him."

Kimiko nodded in agreement, before running out. "Hey Spicer!" she yelled, catching the attention of the mechanical genius. "Give me the Shen Gong Wu before things get ugly," she threatened. A slightly breeze fluttered into the area, gentle blowing around Kimiko's hair and making Jack's outfit fly slightly.

"How about my Jackbots fight you, I leave, and you get nothing?" Jack asked her. "Attack!" The empty road, minus two kids now, walking away, was filled up with robots. The kids had turned to continue to watch, shocks of awe on their faces.

Kimiko was outnumbered, Jack never showed this many bots. Especially since they were destroyed earlier.

Raimundo was about to run out to help her, But Crow held on to his back. "Don't worry, she can fight. All she needs to do is work with her tai-chi. Jack is our prize. Then we'll help.."

"No! Shut up Crow, quit acting like this plan is a good idea. Kimiko is in danger!" Raimundo yelled, shoving him and running out to the open, leaving Crow in the alley. With no idea how to take on the bots and get the orb, Raimundo left Crow to finish the thought for him.

Raimundi appeared next to Kimiko. "You ready?" he asked as the bots got near them. "Guess it doesn't matter." He let one bot get near him, and kicked it hard. The two weren't granted time to build their chi and had to make due with what they could. Luckily Raimundo was a hard hitter and had the sword.

From the roof tops, Omi watched down. He waited for Jack to come up so he could knock him back down. He looked over to the others. Clay was a bit away from him, but was also looking down, with clenched fists, probably because Crow wasn't helping. Kimiko, he saw, wasn't worried, neither was Raimundo. He looked over to Alyssa, who had a seemingly bored expression, though Omi had to agree. Raimundo spamming the Sword of the Storm was almost boring to watch if it wasn't the robots flying up past them into the sky.

Crow walked out, only because the battle was over. He looked at the scene. A few parts were on the ground, and Jack.. Jack was flying away. He smirked slyly. "You aren't a bird Jack.. don't fly," he called, just before Jack would fall into their trap.

Jack stopped and looked down. "Is Crow jealous he can't fly?" he spat. "You Xiaolin losers. Make a plan next time you want to fight against me, Jack Spicer, evil boy genius!" He continued flying upwards and away, over Crow's head, right into Clay's section.

Clay quickly made a lasso as Spicer flew over his head. "You know, before you call us losers, make sure you don't have to steal from us after we beat you," Clay mocked, throwing his lasso. He wrapped it perfectly around Jack;s wasit like normal, and pulled it right, dragging Jack down.

"Oof!" Jack coughed as the rope took its place. "Let go!" Jack yelled, not letting go of the Shen Gong Wu. "Orb of Tornami!" he yelled, barely able to move his hand. He got the ground wet along with Clay's boots, but it was useless.

Alyssa and Omi jumped over the rooftops to get to Clay, and got the orb.

Omi held the orb and smirked slightly. "Orb of Tornami!" he yelled, getting Jack in the face, and messing up the boy's hair.

"My hair! You jerks, look what you've done! Do you know how long it takes to get my hair to look good!" he yelled, squirming around. AFter much difficulty, he wiggled free from the ropes and flew away, screaming for revenge.

Omi had a triumphant expression. "Told you he would be mad if we got him wet."

Dojo let the three of them on before flying down hesitantly, since there had been a small crowd to gather, but he figured since they got the Wu, the people would never see them again, and picked up the others before flying off.

"You kids got lucky," he said. "I guess Omi was right all along."

What none of them saw as the dragon walked off, was a figure lying in the shadows of an alley watching them leave. All you could tell of him were the blue eyes that shone slightly. Then a small laugh was heard. It sounded evil.
