Here's a new chapter. Master Monk Guan will be written tonight and posted tomorrow, I know all of guys are ready for Armina and Chase to finally meet. I made this chapter to be funny, and enjoyed writing if you wish!
Jack Spicer's POV
A new Shen-Gong-Wu had revealed itself which is why I was now was at the edge of a waterfall, in a director's chair. My robots were all ready to start filming a movie I decided to do of my victory of the Xiaolin Losers. I looked at my watch on my left wrist, the radar showed that Dojo was fast approaching, I made a gesture for my robots, to not do anything.
Armina's POV
In North China
I was curious why Jack looked like some kind of director when we arrived to the get the "Shadow of Fear". Dojo had brought us to a water fall; the top part of the waterfall was blocked by a log damn, while the river that led to it was covered with logs. Dojo suddenly let a yell, as logs were being thrown at us. He ducked dodging some of them, until one grazed the top of his head, breaking the green scales away.
"That's going to leave a mark" the dragon said.
"Oooh" we all said wincing at Dojo's bald skin. More logs were being tossed by the Jack-Bots; in fact one collided with Dojo's face, causing him to turn upside down in the air, while we all held on for dear life. Once Dojo got right side up again, a log crashed on top of his skull, causing us to fall downwards.
"Ruby of Ramses!" Omi shouted, the huge ruby glowed, and its magic lifted the log off of Dojo's head.
It was a warm day in Northern China, which I why I chose to wear a purple tank top, with dark blue shorts, my hair was back in its braid, and of course I wore my black combat boots, and my necklace. Omi, Clay and Rai wore their usual attires, while Kimiko of course had another odd combination on her. She wore some kind of pink animal suit that held a pink heart in the center, and a tail at the end. Underneath she had a pink and black triangular pattern skirt that went well with her white boots with the three pink rows on them. I then noticed Jack had activated his heli pad and was heading towards the "Shadow of Fear. Clay noticed this too, and took out his lasso, he quickly threw the rope down to the log that held the Shen-Gong-Wu, however I heard the rope snap thanks to Jack's heli pad.
"Damn it!" Clay cursed as he brought his lasso back up annoyed he missed the Wu.
"Ready to go guys?" I asked my pack-mates, as I stood up.
"You bet Mina" Rai replied to me.
"Ready, set, go!" I cried leaping off of Dojo first with the others following me. All of us landed on the floating logs below us. Jack stood on the opposite side of the "Shadow of Fear", Wuya of course beside him. Clay was the closest to him, and the Wu. Clay held out his arms to his sides like the cowboy he was.
"Make your move Spicer!" he told the Goth coolly.
"Make up!" Jack cried. WTF I thought. A girl robot suddenly rushed to Clay powdering his face with make-up, when she finished Clay's entire face was covered with foundation. His cheeks had pinkish blush on them, and he even wore lipstick.
"Beautiful!" Jack said admiring his work. "Action!" he then called to a nearby robot next to him, which held a camera in its clutches. Clay would not move.
"What's wrong with Clay?" Omi asked turning to Kimiko and me. The two of us stood on the same log together.
"Clay must have stage fright" Kimiko answered her friend. Jack cackled and flew to the "Shadow of Fear" and snagged it.
"See you Xiaolin Losers!" the Goth taunted us, as he leapt over the logs getting away with the "Shadow of Fear" in his clutches.
"Orb of Tornami!" Omi cried holding up the blue orb Shen-Gong-Wu. A huge orb of water emerged in front of him, before it broke creating a mini tsunami in the river. The water caused the log Clay stood on to head towards the blocked water fall. We all went bug eyed as Clay was fast approaching it.
"Sword of the Storm" Rai cried. As Kimiko shouted the incantation for the Lotus Twister. The wind from the Sword of the Storm created a funnel which caused the log damn to break, as it did Clay began to go over the edge of the water fall. Kimiko's left arm was able to grab the cowboy before he fell to his doom. I whistled to Dojo as all of us were fast approaching the fall itself, the dragon quickly swooped down and we all jumped onto his back before the logs which we stood on went over the waterfall.
"Sorry I lost the Wu ya'll I didn't realize I was camera shy" the cowboy apologized shamefully.
"Blame Momma's boy, what does the "Shadow of Fear" do anyway Dojo?" I inquired at the dragon.
"The "Shadow of Fear" allows the user to enter one's dreams and bring to life the victims deepst darkest fear" he replied to me, as we crossed the border back into Southern China.
"HA, I am not afraid of anything!" Omi shouted proudly, putting his hands to his sides. I sweat dropped; at that comment of course Cue-Ball would say that.
Later that Day
After all of us showered and changed back into our monk's robes, we did another training exercise since we went Wu hunting earlier that morning. The task was to go around a chosen part of the obstacle course, assigned to us by Master Fung blindfolded. Rai got the tunnel full of saws, Clay got going through the ax swings, Kimiko with the robot crocodiles, Omi I had no idea what part of the course he got, and as for myself I had to dodge being hit by arrows. The task wasn't hard for me even blindfolded, I focused hard on listening for the arrows, coming toward me, I easily dodged each one. A bell rung shortly, meaning one of the others got through their exercise first, I took off my blindfold to see Omi at the finish line. When the bell rung, the other parts of the obstacle courses stopped.
"Your courage is admirable young dragons in-training" Master begun as he sat on top of a high pedestal like thing. "Yet the bravest monk isn't the one who fears nothing, but the one who is willing to face what he or she fears most"
Omi walked to the pedestal where our Master was.
"Jack Spicer will never defeat me even with the Shadow of Fear, because I never had a fear I wasn't afraid of" I face palmed as Omi said this.
Later that Night
Jack Spicer's POV
I made sure the camera my robot had in front of me was working properly. I laughed evilly as I crept into the Xiaolin Losers dorms where they slept. I wore a black vampire cape, to film the monk's reactions when I used the Shadow of Fear on them. I stopped outside of the entrance to the dorms, where I could hear the Xiaolin Losers snoring away.
"Guys I want you to get in close for this" I told the camera bot. Wuya flew at me face.
"Oh quiet you fool" she growled.
"We're rolling" I hissed quietly at her before blowing her away. I then quietly snuck into the dorms.
"When hunting the elusive Wu you have to move quietly as a cat" but as I said this, my feet bumped into a table, causing me to fall down with a clang.
"OWW, OW, OW OOH THAT HURT!" I shouted tears pouring out of my eyes; I then put my hands to my mouth to shut myself up before I woke anyone. Luckily I didn't, the first room I was at was Kimiko's she was fast asleep, I smirked.
"Shadow of Fear!" I said, calling the Wu's name, becoming small enough to enter her ear. Kimiko quickly whimpered and shouted.
"No, No!"
My next victim was Raimundo, then Clay. Omi was the next. Entering his dream was dull, but finding his darkest fear was amusing, in fact there was a door that literally said "Omi's Deepest Darkest Fear". As I stood outside the closed door, Cue-Ball found me.
"Jack Spicer you are not welcome here prepare to battle" I only smirked and opened the door to his fear. Chrome-Dome paled as he saw what he feared most stare back at him with evil red glowing eyes. The short monk had black hair in his dream, but at the sight of what scared him it all fell off. I laughed like crazy, before I left his dream. Now Armina was the last. I was looking forward to this, as I entered her dream, the beautiful brown haired girl, was dressed in a spaghetti strapped white dress, her dream location at the moment was a forest, next to a lake. She was in deep meditation.
"Hey Armina" I said sweetly to the Dragon of Ice, who immediately opened her emerald green eyes. She stood up quickly and faced me very angry.
"I knew you wouldn't resist the urge to invade my dreams you pervert" she growled at me.
"Couldn't resist babe, now let's see what you fear most" I said. Armina's face suddenly paled.
"Oh god, you wouldn't" she squeaked. Suddenly something black and giant entered my vision to my left, both Armina and I turned. We both screamed at the sight of her fear, in fact I was so scared I leapt into her arms. I had to get out of her dream now, so I quickly got of the she wolf's arms, and quickly flew out of her ear.
Next Morning
Armina's POV
I did not sleep well last night. Jack Spicer had come into my dream, as I expected he would, and now he knew my worst fear. Everyone including me, was tired, we weren't even paying attention to what we were doing with breakfast. Luckily I didn't have a breakfast disaster unlike the others. Omi was breaking eggs, he had sent one egg flying, which broke onto Clay's shoulder, the cowboy was flipping pancakes, until the impact of the egg got him to turn, a pancake flew right dead smack into Raimundo's face, the Latino was making orange juice, when the pancake hit him, the juice spilled onto the floor causing Kimiko who was holding a plate of bacon to slip, and this got the bacon to fly and land on Omi's face. I tried not to laugh at this.
"Sorry I'm a tad tired, I didn't sleep well last night" Clay said apologizing.
"It seems my fellow monks had a hard time sleeping last night" Master Fung announced from the kitchen door.
"Ya in fact I had a really gross dream Jack Spicer was in it" Rai began.
"Ya me too" Kimiko added wrinkling her face in disgust.
"Same here" Clay finished.
"He used the Shadow of Fear to enter all of our dreams and brought out what each of us fears most" I pointed out.
"Armina is right now that Jack has the Shadow of Fear, he will use whatever you each fear most against you, to steal our Shen-Gong-Wu" Master Fung said making a good point. Omi who had began shaking in fright a second ago, suddenly turned to Master Fung proudly.
"Well I have nothing to fear"
"Well Omi if you insist you fear nothing you will be the one to keep an eye on the vault tonight" Master Fung said turning to him. Omi suddenly paled at the mention of his assignment.
Omi's POV
Me and my big mouth I thought to myself as I paced around the vault, keeping an eye out for Jack Spicer. To be honest, I did have something I was afraid of I was just too ashamed to admit it. I was in deep thought when someone touched my forehead. Upside down in front of me was Jack Spicer.
"Jack Spicer" I growled. The Goth leapt from his upside position to land on his feet right side up.
"Light on the set!" he cried. His robots shined their lights on us.
"Rolling" the Jack-Bot with the camera said giving Jack a thumbs up.
"The one the only ruler of the universe Jack Spicer, Master of Evil" Jack began to gloat. I only sweat dropped like Armina would do sometimes. Wuya flew next to Jack and growled.
"Less talk, and more Shen-Gong-Wu"
"Ya, ya, ya don't rush me I'm an artist, I'm temperamental" the Goth said to Wuya throwing his arms up in the air in frustration, before pushing Wuya away from him, with an index finger. The Goth then walked to me with a script in his hands.
"Ok let me set the scene up for you Baldy" Jack said coming up to me. "You are defending the Shen-Gong-Wu when you are defeated by your own cowardliness" Psssh ya right. I bit into the script I was given and tore it up into pieces, throwing the debris into the air before saying.
"Ha! You are no longer in your rucker, I fear nothing"
"Oh really?" Jack began. But he wasn't satisfied at how he said it. "Oh really?" he then asked again more sinister like. Wuya came back to her partner again.
"Just do it! I don't have all eternity, well I do I just don't want to spend it with you" the witch said, before Jack pulled her away.
"Shadow of Fear!" the Goth cried. Purple like clouds emitted from the Shen-Gong-Wu and took the form of what I feared most.
"No, this cannot be!" I said, closing my eyes refusing to look into the eyes of what I feared most.
"I will not fear, I will not fear, I WILL NOT STAY HERE!" I shouted before high-tailing it out of the vault.
Armina's POV
It was Omi's screams that woke me up.
"What the hell was that?" I said poking my head out from my room. The others did as well. We all straightened ourselves up and hurried to the vault. We got there just as Jack emerged from the underground storage unit a bunch of our Wu in his hands.
"Jack Spicer!" Kimiko, Clay and Rai said in unison as their eyes bug eyed.
"Stealing our Wu again Jack?" I growled at the Goth.
"In the flesh no autographs please" the red head said.
"How about a punch in the face?" I suggested as I leapt towards him. My punch hit him hard in the stomach causing him to crash against the temple wall.
"Camera bots attack!" Jack commanded.
"I got this guys Diamond Dust Ice!" I shouted leaping into the air, I began to spin around at a very fast pace, causing ice shards to fly everywhere, this destroyed all of the robots.
"See you later Xiaolin Losers!" Jack gloated as he made his getaway above us through the glass roof. Clay went to examine the vault; he didn't take long coming back out.
"It isn't too bad, most of the Wu are here"
"Where is Omi, he was supposed to be watching the vault tonight?" Kimiko inquired. I sniffed the air and caught Omi's scent.
"He's outside" I replied to her. We all found Omi shaking like no tomorrow upside down against a tree.
"We should take him inside he doesn't look so well" Kimiko suggested.
Later
We all were practicing are fighting together outside of the vault discussing our plans to get our Wu back.
"Are you guys ready for some Jack Spicer butt kicking?" Rai asked.
"You bet" Kimiko answered.
"I think I'll pass" Omi said getting all of us to stop what we were doing to look at him.
"Say what?" I asked Cue-Ball.
"I have some chores to do" was Omi's excuse. But we ended up taking Omi with us to Jack's house. The Goth sat in his chair filming as we arrived.
"We came to get our Shen-Gong-Wu back Jack!" Kimiko growled before calling out her elemental attack.
Her fire destroyed a robot to Jack's left.
"Good, good very dramatic now let's add some special effects Shadow of Fear" Jack cried holding the Wu up. Purple clouds surrounded us, and took the forms of what we were afraid of. A huge doll appeared in front of Kimiko, Kimiko fell and tried to back away, but she fell onto the floor, the doll grabbed her. Clay's fear took the form of his grandmother, Rai's fear was a Jelly Fish, and Omi's fear was a rabid squirrel. I suddenly felt something sharp touch the sides of my waist I turned around and screamed. My fear was a giant Black Widow. When I was younger I got bitten by one, and had an allergic reaction, ever since I hated spiders. We all screamed as our fears chased us from side of the room to the other, before we all high-tailed it out of Jack's house screaming towards the rising sun.
The Next Day
"The five of you have nothing to be ashamed off" Master Fung reassured us as we stood in the vault.
"Hey guys look at that I found" Kimiko announced holding one of Jack's cameras. She started the camera and it played the events at happened in the vault while Omi was guarding it. In fact we were watching the movie behind Omi's head.
"Why didn't you tell us you were in trouble little guy?" I asked Omi, walking over to him. I placed a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"Because I am ashamed of what happened" he said. Dojo suddenly sensed a new Wu from Master's Fung shoulders.
"Sorry to break this downer fest but I'm sensing a new Shen-Gong-Wu" the dragon slid off from Master Fung's shoulders and grabbed the scroll.
"The Wu is the Crouching Cougar it's a travel Wu like the Silver Manta Ray" Dojo explained while he showed us the information for the Crouching Cougar.
"Do not lose hope young monks realizing one's fear is the first step to facing them" Master Fung told us before Dojo took his larger form.
Dojo's Back
"How the hell are we going to face our fears, anyway?" Rai asked while we flew towards the location of the Crouching Cougar. A light bulb lit up above my head.
"How about each of us trade another's fear, except I will face mine, I learned a long time ago the one thing you need to fear is fear itself" I suggested.
"Good idea, Mina" Rai praised giving me a high five, then the Latino went to high five Omi, the little guy then turned to high five to no in particular behind him. We arrived in a canyon, the Crouching Cougar sat by itself on a high rock. Jack of course was there ready to fight us.
"Shadow of Fear!" the Goth cried. Dojo dropped us off, on the rock ledges beneath us.
"Here they come all of you switch now!" I commanded the others as they did. Omi took Kimiko's place while Rai took Clay's.
"Hey you ugly eight legged insect come and get me!" I shouted sticking my tongue out at the Black Widow. This spider got the mad, causing smoke to come out of its pincers. The arachnid leapt towards the ledge I was on. I jumped into the air as it landed on the rocky ledge. I landed on its back, which greatly confused the arachnid.
"Time to say goodbye Diamond Dust Ice!" I shouted and I slammed my hands onto the spider's back, the arachnid let out a screech as it began to freeze up.
"Dojo now!" I called to the dragon, Dojo hissed flames which caught fire onto the spider. I kicked my fear over the ledge, and the mix of fire and ice caused the giant spider to be destroyed.
"NOOOOO!" Jack shouted.
"Guys the Crouching Cougar!" I shouted pointing to the Wu above me, the others along with their fears stopped what they were doing, and began to run towards the Shen-Gong-Wu. Omi, Kimiko, Raimundo, and Clay along with Minako the rabid squirel, Lil Chicka the doll, Clay's grandmother, and Rai's jelly fish touched the Crouching Cougar at the same time.
"It's an eight way showdown" I exclaimed. This would be interesting, I whistled to Dojo. The dragon took his larger form, and flew towards me and I jumped onto his back. Omi, Kimiko, Rai, and Clay decided to wager the Two-Ton Tunic, the Shroud of Shadows, Silk Spinner, and Lotus Twister, while their fears would wager the Serpent's Tail, the Eye of Dashi, Third Arm Sash, and Fist of Tebigong.
"The game is an all around Sumo-Match against your worst fear" Jack announced.
"I'm glad I sat this one out" I told Dojo while we hovered above the others.
"Let's go Xiaolin Showdown!" Omi cried. The rock everyone was on took to the sky literally, the sky turned into space, while a green aurora ring circled everyone. I had to hold back a laugh as everyone below changed into diapers.
"GONG-YI-TAN-PEI!" everyone shouted together. Kimiko's doll was the first to act.
"Eye of Dashi" the toy cried shooting lightning at Kimiko who jumped into the air dodging the attack.
"Shroud of Shadows" the fire dragon cried, but it was too small to fit her, she yelled as her fear came after her. Minako ran after Omi.
"Silk Spinner!" Rai cried shooting webbing at the jelly fish, the sea creature uttered the Third Arm Sash's name, because the Wu came towards Rai grabbing his right foot, causing him to fall and getting dragged. Clay's grandmother approached Clay attempting to kiss him. She used the Fist of Tebigong, and smashed the Wu beneath her, getting Clay to lose his footing.
"Come on you guys show your fears whose boss" I cried from Dojo's back. They all heard me because I noticed Omi activating the Two-Ton Tunic, which got Minako to crash into it and fly out of the ring.
"Awesome job Omi!" I shouted to my friend, the little guy gave me thumbs up. Kimiko then kicked her doll hard in the gut and sent it flying out of the arena. Clay's grandmother gave a scream as Clay threw her out of the arena next. As Rai got up, he smirked at the jellyfish in front of him. He pointed below him; the jellyfish noticed its foot was touching the green ring.
"You're out" the guys said together making a get outta here gesture. I cheered as the showdown ended.
"You and your directing cost us nine, nine Sheng-Gong-Wu!" Wuya yelled at Jack.
"Cut I said cut damn it!" the Goth snapped placing a glove hand over the camera lens.
Dream
Rose Garden
I walked into the Rose Garden dream I always shared with Kiba. However to my surprise he wasn't there. A disappointed growl escaped my lips.
"Hello Luna" a silky voice crooned from behind causing me to jump. There was a thud a second later, because I landed on top of Kiba's dragon form.
"Don't do that to me!" I scolded my suitor before getting off of him.
"My apologies my love, it seems I got here a few minutes after you did" the dragon said getting up.
"How much longer until we meet, not knowing who you are is driving me crazy!" I shouted throwing my arms up in the air. My outburst got Kiba to laugh; he walked towards me and, used one of his clawed hands to bring me up to him.
"Our meeting is coming fast, dear one, after the Lasso Boa Boa reveals itself, another Wu known as the Monsoon Sandals will activate, then I will finally reveal who I am to you, I look forward to our meeting"
I blushed at his answer. I was ready to meet who Kiba really was. I closed my eyes, as Kiba took his human form. I heard him snap his fingers, and music started.
"Oh hell no I am not dancing to "As The World Falls Down" I said to Kiba, who laughed and moved my right hand to his left shoulder, I felt his hand wrap itself around my waist, as the other took my left hand. He then began to lead me into the song.
"Hmmm I think the song fits us Luna" he teased as began to lead me into a waltz.
"Bull shit" I scoffed as I had no choice but to follow Kiba's lead. The guy wasn't a bad dancer to be honest. The dance seemed to last forever, because I was actually enjoying this. I let out a squeak as Kiba dipped me beneath him, which got him to chuckle. He pulled me back up and pulled me into a kiss towards the ending of the song.
I thought "As The World Falls Down" would be a good choice for Chase and Armina's dance. I'm so excited for the next chapter, I don't own Xiaolin Showdown or "As The Worlds Falls Down". Till next time my fellow readers!
