I don't own Xiaolin Showdown


"Jack wake up!" Raimundo yelled as he threw a bucket of water on Jack's face.

Jack quickly sprang up and gasped. "What did you do that for?"

"Get your butt off the bed and come on!" Raimundo yelled as he ran out of the temple.

Jack cleaned himself and joined the group outside.

"Good morning young dragons," Master Fung said to them, "Jack, glad that you joined us. We are going to do the basics of respect and trust."

Those were two things that Jack didn't like at all but it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

"So when someone is in the need of help, they have to trust you that you'll help them," Master Fung explained.

"Can this lesson get any boring?" Raimundo scoffed, "Master Fung we know this."

"Wait," Jack spoke up, "that's not respect."

"Good job Jack," Master Fung said, "I expected better from a Wudai Warrior."

Raimundo glared at Jack.

"Kimiko you will be the demonstration. Please get on top of that boulder up there," Master Fung said as he pointed to the high mountain of rocks. Kimiko quickly climbed on top of them and stood there.

"What do we do next?" Omi asked him.

"I want the for of you to gather around the mountain and to look at Kimiko when she falls. I want you to hold out your arms out so you can catch her. Ready Kimiko?"

"Ready," Kimiko said as she spread out her arms and leaned back as she fell from the rock.

"Ah!" Omi yelled, "a bee!" he frantically ran around.

"Dude!" Raimundo yelled, "stay still!"

As Kimiko fell she landed in Jack's arms.

"Why me?" Jack whispered to her.

"Don't worry about it," she whispered back.

"Very good," Master Fung said as he approached them, "now Kimiko, why did you choose Jack?"

"Because none of them were concentrating to catch me and also, yesterday I almost slipped and Jack caught me before I fell," Kimiko explained.

"So both respect and trust fall into this situation," Master Fung explained, "you respect that person and the troubled situation that they are in and that person is able to trust you. That's the end of our lesson for today," he said as he left them.

"Who's up for a game of cards?" Omi asked them.

"Me," Clay said.

"Me too," Jack said as they followed Omi. They went inside the temple. Kimiko went to join them but Raimundo grabbed her from the arm and pulled her away.

"What was that?" Raimundo demanded, "why did you fall to Spicer?"

"Because I trust him," Kimiko answered.

"But why?" Raimundo asked her.

"Because he wasn't the one laughing at me when I twisted my ankle a week ago. The three of you were laughing. He also wasn't the one running around afraid of a bee while the other one was flinging his arms around," Kimiko told him.

"But Jack is evil," Raimundo said, "he wasn't with us a week ago, we thought that you were playing along and Omi gets on my nerves with his bee problem."

"I would never fake my injury," Kimiko said, "and if you're going to be a jerk about this then be one. I don't care," she said as she walked away from him.

Raimundo shook his head and followed her.
