Author's note: New Chapter! BTW I don't own Xiaolin Showdown or Tangled. Also, sorry about the chapter's name! ^^

Chapter Six: In the Pub.

Raimundo led Kimiko and Dojo through the woods saying to himself, "Was it through this part of the forest?" Then, finally, he stopped, turned to his left, and saw a shabby looking place. "Ah, here it is, The Green Monkey." he saw Kimiko standing right next to him with her mouth hanging open, Dojo's as well. Raimundo grinned and took Kimiko's hand and lead her to the door.

"What are you doing?" asked Kimiko dragging behind.

"Well, you said you were hungry." he said looking back.

Once again Kimiko gazed into his eyes and thought 'Those eyes, where have I seen those eyes before?'

He broke the gaze, stopped at the door and pushed it open saying, "Table for three please." Kimiko looked into the dark, shabby room and saw to her horror, punks and thugs. Raimundo led her into the room saying, "What do you think of this place? Personally I think they could use some room service." He was right about the 'room service' thing. She felt like she had just walked into a funeral.

"What do you want?" asked one of the men who had a big nose, a bandana on his head, and pimples. He glared at Kimiko and Raimundo.

Dojo, who was on Kimiko's shoulder, said, "Who us? We were just passing through," he chuckled and turned to Raimundo, "Can we PLEASE leave?"

"What for? You said you were hungry." he gave a little grin at Dojo.

Kimiko turned to Dojo and glared at him. "What? You said you were hungry too!" he tried to defend himself.

"He's right you know." said Raimundo looking at Kimiko.

She mentally kicked herself and said, "Well, I agree with Dojo, can we please go home?"

Raimundo, thinking he had won into scaring her to go home, turned to leave but one of the punks stood in between him and the door. A big guy with a yellow shirt and blue jeans asked, "Where do you think you're going?"

Raimundo got a bad feeling and motioned for Kimiko to get behind him. When she did he asked the punk, "We're just heading out. Got a problem with that?" he glared into the guy's eyes when he asked this.

"Yes as a matter of fact we do." he replied glaring back at him.

"Aren't you Raimundo?" asked the punk with the bandana standing next to his friend.

"Yeah, who wants to know?" asked Raimundo looking at the other punk now.

"Well, they do." they both pointed to two kids sitting on stools at the boot.

Omi turned around to them and said "I believe you have something of ours."

Clay turned and said, "What do ya say you give us our scroll and we'll pretend we never saw ya." he glared at Raimundo who glared back at them.

Kimiko who was behind Raimundo spoke up, "What do they mean 'our scroll'?" she stepped out from behind him and said, "Do you mean to tell me that scroll isn't yours?" her eyes were like fire. She was so furious that he had lied to her.

"Oh yeah, did I forget to mention that?" replied Raimundo trying to avoid eye contact with her.

Dojo piped up, "So, you just wanted the scroll so they wouldn't find it!" he put his hands on his sides.

"Wait, do you mean to tell me you have something of much worth?" asked the punk with the bandana. He stepped closer to Raimundo along with his friend.

"How much is it worth?" asked another punk coming up to them along with others. But there was one who was not coming. He had a cloak over him and he was sitting on a stool. Kimiko noticed this and before she could do anything she was pushed out of the way and all the punks and thugs were around Raimundo asking so many questions about the scroll. Omi and Clay were trying to get to him, but before they could the door swung open and coming in were Jack and Jack double. The crowd stopped and looked over to them. While they were distracted Raimundo was able to get out of the crowd.

"We know you're in here Raimundo!" stated Jack. "Do you know where he is?" he asked the men.

"Yeah, he's right here." the crowd moved so they could reveal Raimundo, but to their surprise Raimundo was not there.

"Where is he?" asked Jack double walking over to one of the men.

"He was right here." he replied glaring down at Jack double.

"Well it looks like you lost him!" stated Jack. That was the wrong thing to say, because when he did the entire place broke out into a fight trying to get each other to tell them where Raimundo was. Omi and Clay joined in the fight to get one of the men to tell them where Raimundo was.

Kimiko was a little confused of where Raimundo was as well. She felt someone grab her arm and pull her back behind a counter. Before she could scream, a hand covered her mouth. She looked to her right and saw Raimundo putting a finger to his lips signaling her to not make a sound. She nodded her head and he removed his hand away from her mouth. She mouthed to him, "Who are they?"

"Now's not the time!" he mouthed back. He felt a hand grab his shoulder, he looked up and saw a hooded figure. It was the same figure Kimiko saw earlier.

The figure bent down beside them and took his hood off. He was a kid about the same age as Kimiko and Raimundo with black hair and brown eyes. "The name's Jermaine." he whispered. Raimundo looked over at Kimiko and Dojo then back at Jermaine. "I couldn't help but over hear that you're in need of some assistance." he said giving them a smile.

"We sure do." said Dojo looking over the counter to see that everyone was fighting. He turned back to the others.

"Well, you're in luck," replied Jermaine. He led them over to a secret entrance to a passage underneath the pub. "Just follow this passage and it'll lead you out to other side of the forest." he instructed.

"Why are you helping us?" asked Kimiko.

"Yeah, didn't you hear the part about me being stealing something?" asked Raimundo.

"I'm helping because those punks want what you have and they're not gonna get it." he replied. Kimiko gave him a nice, warm smile. He nodded and said, "Good luck." after they left running through the passage he put his hood over him again and sat back down on a stool not paying attention to the fight. Omi and Clay saw that the two went through the passage so they broke out of the fight and followed them. The two Jacks were so scared of the punks that they went screaming into the passage after the others.

Author's note: In case you were wondering, I used the punks from the episode 'My Homey Omi'. Just in case the punks' appearance sounded familiar.
