Happy Saturday Readers!
Here is part 1 of Time After Time. The last chapter and epilogue will be posted tomorrow!
Enjoy!
Armina's POV
"The Mikado Arm Shen-Gong-Wu is a lesser known Wu it gives the user great upper body strength" Dojo explained as we all sat on his back.
"I don't need upper body strength but I know who does" Omi said. This got me and Kimiko to yell at him both of our heads enlarged.
"AND WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN!" she and I said in unison. The outfit I wore today was the Duke Devlin one I wore a couple weeks ago.
"Be careful before you answer" Kimiko growled at Omi as her head went back to its normal size.
"I was speaking of Jack Spicer" Omi replied nervously. The location of the Mikado Arm took us to the nearest largest city an hour away from the Temple. The Wu sat gleaming on top of unfinished metal outline of a building. Jack and Anya suddenly appeared above us. However when my eyes met with Anya she gave me a kind smile.
Earlier That Week
Armina's POV
Chase's Lair
"Do you Anya Garcia swear your loyalty to my mate and future wife?" Chase asked as Anya kneeled before him. Jack wasn't present due to him not feeling well.
"I do, from now on I will answer to Armina's needs and calls as her Beta" Anya replied. I then approached Anya; I held a dagger in my hands. Anya was dressed only in her purple tank top and her usual black shorts and combat boots. Anya held out her hand to me, and I gently pressed the blade of the knife against the palm in her hand. I gently pricked her flesh so her blood would slowly drip out. I put my left hand over the small wound and said.
"I Armina Storm Alpha of the deceased Northern Alaska Pack initiate you Anya Garcia as my second in command" after I finished that line, I withdrew my hand from hers. On the right side of Anya's body appeared more tribal markings, this time the markings consisted of lightning bolts that took the form of a cross from above her left breast and they stopped to the middle of her back.
Present
Armina's POV
"Meet Jack Spicer and his squad of bird bots!" Jack then let out a caw caw command to his robots, the bird bots turned around and sent bird crap towards us. The substance hit Dojo's eyes and the dragon began to fall down towards the bottom of the building to be. Dojo luckily wiped off the bird crap just in time, and he landed on a nearby building.
"Pretty bad ass, huh the cawing is a recording of me" Jack gloated before he started to head towards the Mikado Arm.
"That bird brain Spicer is a menace on the ground as well in the sky" Clay said as he shook bird crap off of his hat before putting it back on. We got off of Dojo before he returned to his normal size.
"Kids remember a leader will be chosen any day and it's my job to rate each of you" Dojo explained as he got out a notepad and a pen, as we leapt into the air.
"Mina now!" Rai called to me.
"Wudai Ice Form Dragon!" I cried as my dragon self came to life. The others jumped onto my back and I flew around the metal outline of the building and let the others use their Wudai Weapons to destroy the robots. A swarm of bird bots then came towards us, I hissed out my icy breath causing them to freeze and fall to the bottom of the building. The building shook and started to fall apart, the others got off my back, and I returned to my human form. The five of us then grabbed the Mikado Arm together and we landed on the ground safely. Dojo in a referee uniform held up five scorecards of ten.
"I got ten all around" Omi then turned to Jack with an evil smirk.
"I suppose that defeating Jack Spicer would be the tie breaker" Jack went bug eyed at that comment.
"I'm outta here!" the Goth quickly activated his heli-bot and took off, with Anya following him.
Xialion Temple
"I wish Jack Spicer didn't flee like that I would have loved kicking his butt" Omi boasted as well all sat down eating pizza.
"Even if we tried, Omi Anya wouldn't like that" Rai added while shuddering. I think the Latino was afraid of Jack's girlfriend. Master Fung stood in front of the table holding the Mikado Arm, with Dojo around his neck.
"There is still one last test before a leader is selected each of you will go on a quest, the five of you can choose to either go on your own quest or chose a partner" Master Fung explained.
"Sounds interesting" I said, finishing my last slice of pizza.
"Ooh I am very good at quests just like everything else" Omi gloated.
"Omi can it" I ordered my pack mate; Omi noticed the look I gave him and he shut up.
"Dojo will accompany you as well" Master Fung added.
"So what else is new?" Dojo asked bored. Master Fung turned to him.
"As a reward for your service I was thinking Dojo you could trim my toenails "this got Dojo to yell out in excitement.
"Too much info Master" I told Master Fung who chuckled at me kindly.
Later that Night
I was meditating in my room when I heard Diamond return from his hunt. I opened my eyes and noticed the owl held a dead mouse in his talons.
"Must you eat that in here?" I asked to the bird of prey.
I will make sure I don't spill anything how goes the thought of your quest so far? Diamond said to me. I stood up and walked over to Diamond's perch and stroked his head.
"Nothing yet" I replied to him, however the scent of Wuya and Chase caught my nose. I followed the scent into the courtyard where Chase stood beside Wuya his cats stood with them. My mate looked annoyed like he always did, with the witch. The others stood up and got into a fighting position.
"Why are you two here?" I demanded as I approached. The jungle cats all noticed I wasn't playing around and they went to the ground in submission, their ears bent backwards against their heads.
"The usual stealing your Wu" Wuya replied to me smirking.
"Jungle cats entertain the monks" Chase ordered.
"I don't think so" I said and I slammed my hands into the ground. A huge ice ring encircled around us. The Chinese symbol for ice pulsed on my forehead as the ice began to take the form of many wolves. Soon the ice broke into many shards and at seventeen wolves outnumbered the jungle cats.
"Have fun playing with the kitties loves" I told the wolves. The cats immediately attacked as did the wolves. Soon there was huge dust cloud in front of us; the whines of the cats could be heard as the wolves happily kicked their butts. I then turned to Wuya, and smirked. I phased into my wolf form, and ran towards her. Wuya screamed in panic, and high tailed it. I chased her around the courtyard in a circle, my fangs then grabbed the edge of her dress. A rip was heard, and I held a huge portion of Wuya's dress in my mouth. The others started laughing because I managed to reveal Wuya's undergarments. Wuya gave a shriek and ran for it. I noticed Chase snickering before he snapped his fingers. The jungle cats finally gave up fighting with the wolves, and they all walked misery towards Chase. The cats were pretty beat up. Chase turned to me and winked seductively at me before he turned to leave with his kitties behind him.
Later
"Armina!" I was about to go to bed, when Omi and Dojo came to the entrance to my room.
"What is it kid?" I inquired looking to my pack mate.
"I have the perfect quest and I want you to accompany me" this surprised me.
"Why me?" I asked again, arching an eyebrow.
"Because you are a very powerful warrior and I could use you your strength" Omi explained.
"Are you sure you want me to come, kid, I thought you implied girls don't have upper body strength" I told Omi while flashing a fanged grin. Omi shook his head before replying.
"I shouldn't have said that, Armina you are the strongest of all of us"
"He's right beautiful you are" Dojo agreed.
"Thanks you two, so what did you have in mind?" I questioned Omi about the quest.
"We will go back in time and stop Hannibal Bean from turning Chase evil" this got the hair on the back of my neck to rise. If we did this, I might not have a future with Chase. However I could only ask.
"How are we going to do that without the Sands of Time, Omi, last I remember your older self took it with him into the future"
"The two of us will be encased in ice and will sleep for eighty years" Omi answered.
"Alright when did you want to go?"
"Tomorrow morning would best, here you'll need this" Omi held out the Blizzard Javelin towards me. After Omi told me where to meet him I shooed him and Dojo out of room so I could sleep. The morning came pretty quickly, after I dressed into my Izumi outfit, I met up with Omi in the greenhouse, my Blizzard Javelin was strapped onto my back.
"I set the timer for year 2085 and the Eye of Dashi will melt the ice" Omi explained.
"Changing Chopsticks" I said pointing the chopsticks to the bag of Wu that Omi brought. Dojo scooped the shrunken bag and put it in his ear.
HOLD ON! Diamond's voice screamed into mind. The snowy owl flew through the doors to the basement of the greenhouse before they closed.
I could be of assistance in this quest take me with you
"Diamond wants to join us if that's okay" I explained to Dojo and Omi.
"Sure we could use more help" Omi said. Diamond gave a happy hoot and flew on top of Omi's head.
Once Omi finished setting up the timer he and I went around the statue. Dojo slithered himself around my neck.
"Armina if you please" Omi said.
"Wudai Aurora Ice!" I said and I placed my left hand onto my body while my right hand was on Omi's. Soon the four of us became encased within my element, and the two of us went into a deep sleep.
80 Years Later.
I finally woke up when I felt the ice being melted. Omi was the next to wake up along with Diamond and Dojo.
"That was one hell of a nap" I said stretching.
"We must find old Omi right away" Omi added while we exited the basement of the greenhouse. I followed after Omi, Diamond and Dojo were not far behind. Omi opened the door to the greenhouse exit and I followed him outside. Immediately I noticed a change, the Temple where it once stood was gone.
"What on earth happened here?" I asked to myself taking in the surroundings.
"Don't know but I don't like it" Dojo replied to me. A gasp from Omi stopped our conversation. I ran to find Omi, standing in front of a huge hole in the ground. I realized this what was left of the vault.
"All of the Shen-Gong-Wu are gone!" Omi exclaimed.
"You're right, pack mate, now what the hell do we do?" I asked turning to him. Omi looked to me before he replied.
"I do not know, Armina this wasn't the future I was expecting" Dojo suddenly tapped Omi and the two of us turned around to see a gigantic robot holding a ray gun at us.
"Lay down your arms and surrender at once" the robot told us. Whoever created this thing did a good job.
"My arms will remain attached to my shoulders thank you" Omi replied to the robot, and used his hand to break the ray gun. The robot then shoved another ray gun in front of us and fired. Both Omi and I yelped and ran for it. One of the robots found Dojo with its infrared system, and Omi and I used that chance to destroy it.
"OH S(*T!" I said as another robot came after us. I whistled to Diamond and grabbed both Omi and Dojo under my arms and looked for a place to hide. But it was no use, the damn robots kept finding us and firing.
"HOLY!" I said as one of the lasers hit me foot. This angered me and I turned around to face four robots. The robots stopped and I swore they had sweat drops.
"Blizzard Javelin!" I cried holding the powerful weapon in my hands. A powerful ice beam came out of my Wudai weapon and froze the four robots.
"Armina!" yelled Omi. Omi was cornered with the robots surrounding him; I strapped my Blizzard Javelin back onto my back and ran up to Omi, and held my arms out as I got in front of him. One robot grabbed me into its hands while another did the same with Omi. The robots walked for about twenty minutes before they stopped and dropped us. Both Omi and I fell hard onto the ground.
"Bloody hell" I said while I stood up. As I looked around I noticed that me and Omi weren't the only ones around. There were other people dressed in prisoner clothes.
"Armina look" Omi said pointing upwards. The two of us saw a neon light sign saying "Jack Spicer's Prison"
"What the f8^k?" I blurted out.
"Jack Spicer should be the one in prison, I say we look around" Omi suggested. I nodded and followed him. Whatever happened in this time was really screwed up. I worried about Chase, as I was thinking Omi suddenly tugged my pants. He pointed in front of us, and there on the floor sat Kimiko, Raimundo, and Clay all old farts now.
"Kimiko, Raimundo, Clay?" Omi asked. Elderly Kimiko suddenly turned around and said.
"Huh? I can't hear or see so well, come closer" Kimiko walked forward and felt Omi's huge head.
"Omi is that you?" she asked excited.
"And Mina?" elderly Rai asked.
"Holy hell what happened to you guys?" I asked as Clay stood up as well.
"I remember eighty years ago, right before Master Fung picked a leader, you, Dojo, Omi, and Diamond disappeared" Rai answered me.
"We didn't disappear we froze ourselves so we could travel to the future and speak to my elderly self where is he anyway?" Omi inquired. Rai made a come here gesture at Omi, Cue-Ball did as Rai suggested.
"There is no Old Omi, you dope" Rai said while smacking Omi on the head.
"I don't think you guys fully grasped the time space continuum" Clay added.
"After you guys froze yourselves, Jack attacked the Temple and locked us away taking the Wu with him, now he's Jack Spicer the Evil Emperor of Darkness" Rai explained.
"What about Anya?" I asked concerned for my beta. Raimundo gave a sigh before replying.
"Anya was killed by Wuya and Hannibal and it drove Jack into a rage" this shocked me.
"Omi we need to correct this now" I told my pack mate turning to him.
"I agree hey!" Omi said as a robot picked the five of us up into its sharp talon like grip.
"Where are you taking us?" Omi demanded to the robot.
"To the coliseum" the robot replied to him.
"Jack likes to use his prisoners to entertain himself" Rai explained.
"This really screwed up" I blurted out as the robot threw us into a cage. I heard another robot calling out things like an announcer would. Soon the cage was full of light, and I could see Jack. And man was he old, he had his own armor. A familiar voice suddenly caught my attention as it did with Omi. The two of us turned around and saw Master Fung.
"Master Fung is that you?" I called to him. Master Fung looked around for my voice.
"Armina, is that you?" he asked. I walked up to him and bent down in front of him.
"It's me Master, Omi is with me too"
"I may have ruined the future" Omi said before finally crying into Master's Fung chest.
"Oh Omi, Armina the future can always be changed if you two can get the Sands of Time from Jack Spicer"
"Every now and the old dude spits out some words of wisdom, but mostly spits" Rai explained. As Master Fung spat a little to clear his throat, Dojo and Diamond suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Dojo, Diamond you found us!"
"Sorry we're late we had to be sneaky to get in here, I used the Shroud of Shadows on me and Diamond, I have the other Wu"
"Changing Chopsticks!" Omi said pointing the chopsticks at Dojo, Diamond landed on my shoulder as the bag of Wu came out of Dojo's ear.
"I know you, you're Mojo" Master Fung said to Dojo, the dragon turned to Master Fung his eyes widened.
"That's Dojo, Master Fung is that you?" Dojo asked, however Master Fung couldn't answer because a robot opened the cage and grabbed him. As it closed I opened the bag of Wu.
"Guys this is the chance we have been waiting for, I say we break into the palace and get back the Sands of Time!" Rai said.
"But we're not the lean mean fighting machines we once were" Clay argued.
"Dude first of all you were never lean and second the five of us are still Xiaolin Warriors we fought side by side once and we can do it again, Mina?" Rai said turning to me.
"Yes?"
"You need to lead us, you always had that gift within you" Rai told me. I couldn't help but give him a smile, before I nodded. I grabbed the Shroud of Shadows and threw it over us. We all snuck out of the cage and hurried out of the room where Jack was. Once I knew we were safe I threw the Shroud of Shadows off of us.
"We better hurry before we're discovered missing" I told the others, but before we could do anything a familiar southern accent said.
"So it looks like the rumors were true a blast from the past" I turned around and had to hold back a laugh. Hannibal was locked inside of cage, a sign under him said "Musical Fruit"
"A sight for evil eyes" Wuya added. She was dressed in a cheerleading outfit; her shirt had a J on it.
"You two have a lot of balls to even talk, because of you two Anya is dead" I hissed. My claws came out and my fangs elongated. Rai and Omi held me back.
"Calm down Mina, now isn't the time" Rai told me. I only snarled but what I saw next almost made me had a nosebleed. Chase was held up by some kind of machine, and he was only in his boxers.
"Chase Young!" Omi exclaimed.
"I'm surprised to see you Armina and Omi after all of these years, I knew our paths would cross again"
"Omi not now" I ordered him in my alpha tone. Raimiundo gave Kimiko the Denshi bunny so she could turn herself into electricity and travel through the wires until she found where Jack kept the Wu. Rai would keep track of her, with the Mind Reader Conch. She activated the Denshi bunny and became electricity just as Jack found us.
"When will you monks learn, no one can defeat the Evil Emperor of Darkness, guard bots attack!" Jack ordered before he laughed until it got replaced by coughing. Omi activated the Mikado Arm, and used his enlarged arms to protect the rest of us from the robots lasers before they stopped. Omi then charged forward ready to fight. Clay used the Cannon Blaster and fired himself at a swarm of robots destroying them.
"Fist of Tebigong!" Jack cried. His fist was about to hit Clay when Omi blocked it. However Omi was knocked aside with the Third Arm Sash.
"Hey ugly wanna dance?!" I called to Jack. Jack turned to me and grinned.
"Just like old times Armina" he said.
"Not this time Wudai Aurora Ice!" I shouted and shot my element at the robots in the room freezing them.
"Kimiko found the Wu, let's go!" Rai called to us. It was a good thing I froze the robots because Jack at the moment didn't have anything.
"I have an idea grab onto me!" Rai said, we all did as he ordered. He then used the Cannon Blaster to shoot us across the room. We crashed through the wall to where Kim was, she was asleep however the crash through the wall woke her.
"Armina use your ice element hurry!" Omi called to me. I nodded and shot my ice towards more robots that were fast approaching us; the hole in the wall froze. Rai was already at work trying to get the vault open. Rai managed to get the door to the vault open.
"Mina catch!" Rai cried to me, as he threw the Sands of Time. I caught it in my hands, just as the room around us burst apart, thousands of robots surrounded us. Omi ran up to me, with Diamond on his head, and Dojo around his neck. Jack made a command and the robots shot their lasers at us. I used my element to temporally create a shield. One robot grabbed Kimiko.
"Mina, Omi use the Sands of Time! Make sure this never happens!" Rai said, he looked up as a robot foot came upon him. I felt tears go down my face as I closed my eyes and grabbed Omi by the waist and called.
"Sands of Time!"
1500 Hundred Years in the Past
We finally made it to the proper time we needed to be. However I couldn't help the tears that poured own my face, as I finally broke down, after seeing Raimundo getting killed. I felt Omi hug me as Dojo told to me.
"Come on Mina, remember what Master Fung said, the future can always be changed, and we made it back fifteen hundred years into the past, we can still correct this" I opened my eyes and looked at Dojo.
"We must" I replied to him, before I stood up. I gave a curse as the ground shook underneath us, we all turned around and went bug eyed. Wuya was commanding an army of her golems on an assault. Then three warriors came running towards them. One was Master Monk Guan, the other was Grand Master Dashi, and the last one was none other than my mate Chase. I couldn't help but drool, Chase was just as hot on the side of good. His outfit was blue and his hair was slightly styled different, his eyes weren't cat like. I watched in awe, as my beloved take down the golems one by one. The leader of the golems then came upon him. Chase simply smirked and punched the leader hard in the chest. The golem then fell apart. Chase blew a bang back before he and his two comrades prepared to take Wuya down, as Omi and I watched. The next thing I did was pass out.
I bet none of you were expecting I killed off Anya, don't worry she's just killed off in this chapter and comes back in the next! Review if you wish!
