Her First Showdown

Chase's POV

I never saw this girl before, she was interesting. This one looked so much like her. Her black eyes were captivating like a primitive creature to a tar pit, getting lost then getting swallowed in. Her hair was like a white blizzard in a soothing wind. Her skin looked soft and smooth like white silk. She was petite and small but strong, it was all just like Meili de xin. Right down to her intoxicating scent, it was all exactly like her but that was years ago.

However, just because she looked like Meili de xin, doesn't mean she fought like her.

She looked at me in curiosity, which just made my smirk grow. I sat up right still technically under her but in a much better position. Suddenly the others came to find us in the position we were presently in. "My Serpent's tail against", I started but then saw that the only Shen Gong Wu she had was the Fang of the Beast. Then came the voice of the new leader of the monks.

"The Sword of the Storm", said Raimundo as he gave her the weapon. She was looking confused but confidence shined brightly in her eyes along with the wicked smile spreading on her snow skinned face.

"The game is hand-to-hand combat, first one to have both shoulder on the mat for three seconds lose, no Shen Gong Wu will be used. Do you accept", she nodded, obviously she did not talk much. Even when I tackled her she never made, so much as a gasp, but I could hear her heart speed up slightly. I couldn't rap my mind at the reason why. Why would I save her from Wuya's mystical blasts?

I could have just jump myself, saving myself, and left her there to be hit. I just did it without thinking, very unlike me. "Ready, go! XIAOLIN SHOWDOWN", I shouted but the girl whispered it.

The scene started to change, the ground shook, all the trees grew ten times their sizes, the spikes on my uniform showed themselves. I was no longer on the ground, now standing, I looked at the new Dragon of the monks. Nothing in her appearance had changed besides the Shen Gong Wu, she was getting something out of her pocket and putting it in her ears, and then looked at me calmly I was never one to pull the first strike unless Hannibal Bean came into play. However for this situation it would seem that would have no choice.

"YIN", shouted Kimiko, "I'm all for listening to music, but now is not the right time. GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME!"

Yin, so that was her name, interesting, that would explain the mark on her arm. The name of the darkness yet she was in the light of the Xiaolin. "Gong Yi Tan Pai", I shouted and ran towards her. She sighed as if bored with my actions, and I threw a punch at but missed her. Was this a worthy opponent, at last? She was still listening to her music, while dodging me, with speed I've not seen for centuries. She looked as though she moved to the beat of the music.

What was she planning? She was dodging me like she was dancing to the beat of the music, like it was helping her concentrate more than distracting her. Until it hit me like a punch in the face, she was wearing me out to make it easier. Fine, if she wanted to play like in such a manner, she was going to learn just whom she was messing with. I stopped my assault on her and took a step back from the Snow White beauty, with a smirk on my face. Still she didn't say a word to me, not a sound, came from her. I closed my eyes starting to activate my powers

Yin's POV

He closed his eyes, but for what reason, I was still new at this kind of thing I had learned about a Showdown like this but never witnessed it before. This was interesting and the more I got in to it the more interested I became. Suddenly, he opened his golden bronze eyes with veins showing in a deadly display, his clothes seemed to disappear as transformed.

His well toned skin turned to beautiful bronze and black striped scales that sparkled as they formed. His hair was replaced with hard spikes all down his back. His face more reptilian by the second, he started to grow a large tail whipping back and forth. His hand turned to menacing claws and his teeth turned became sharp like freshly sharpened knife that could slice you in half with no jerk on the blade.

I should have screamed my head off in fear, like it was Halloween. I should have gasped in surprise like people do when something unexpected happens. I should have run away, hid, done something that portrayed fear in anyway. I should have been scared. I should have been frightened. I should have feared him, but I could not bring myself to do any of those things, to feel like that.

It was strange, but I actually liked this form, I don't know why but I did. It was refreshing compared to any form I had ever seen people transform in. It was always fur, quails, or feather.

I saw him get down on all fours and started to circle around me. I decided to use my form as well, seeing that claws were going to clash, and put my earphones in my pocket. I followed suit to go on all fours, and closed my eyes. Then I let the transformation took its toll upon me. My body changed within seconds of its command.

When I opened my now catlike eyes, I saw him looking surprised at this form I was in. I just couldn't suppress the inaudible chuckle that escaped my lips. Swishing my tail from side to side, I stopped our circle we were making and strolled towards him in no hurry and he did the same towards me.

Once we were side by side, my tail swished in front of his face, leaving a ghost like touch on his skin. I could feel the shiver he tried oh-so hard to suppress, but he only succeeded to make it so obvious that everyone would know how I was affecting him. Then, I cut him deeply on his side, blood worked its way down, now the real fun would begin. He tried to cut me, but I jumped on his back clawing at his back like my own personal scratching post, and then bit him harshly enough that he bleed. He jumped, like a bull, trying to get at me, then grabbed me and threw me at a tree.

'Strong, very strong', I thought as I picked myself up and stood as he did. Then a realization came to my logical mind. Was I secretly seducing him? The thought disgusted me, but it was not unwelcome in one part of my mind. The moves I made were slow and calm, instead of fierce and fast. But I was determined to win. My mother found that necklace on archeologists' dig. To the museums, it was worthless, but to me it was worth more than platinum or gold.

I ran towards him kicking him in the chest, he dropped to the floor with a loud thud; he had lost too much blood to fight back in the way usually did and was going back to his original form. Straddling him, I held him down by the shoulders with bruising force. He looked up at me; still he carried a smirk on his face, and then did something I would have never expected.

"Well, Yin, you are actually a worthy opponent for me to face. My name is Chase Young", he introduced himself to me, weird. Three seconds had passed us by and the world seemed to become just again. I was exhausted, walking all over the forest to hide from the others, toying with Chase's mind as well as fighting him was tiring. I saw dots in my vision then everything went black.

Third Person

The monks ran to their passed out teammate, in a harsh rush. It would take them a while to do to find exactly where they were, in the bushes and trees. Chase had managed to lift himself up, even with the injuries on his side and back. He looked at Yin now returning to her normal form, he noticed something about Yin. He was right; her skin was smooth and flawless, even with the mark of Yin on her arm. As she slept she looked untouchable like nothing mattered and she would sleep through it all.

Blood was still on her lower lip like some kind of lipstick, and hands, drying on top like a liquid fish net glove. The Serpent's Tail and Sword of the Storm were at her sculptured hips while the Fang of the Beast was around her elegant neck. She was warrior ready for battle, and was not to be tampered with. Perhaps she is a reincarnation of Meili de xin; that must have been it, nothing more nothing less. Chase Young and Meili de xin's time together went through his mind like a meteor shower of thoughts.

Yin started to come to, as she felt someone stroking her hair comfortingly. She opened her eyes slowly to adjust to the lighting and looked up to see Chase looking up at the heavens above them, something in his eyes had changed. They were no longer cold and merciless, but now they were soft and mournful, as is missing something or someone important to him.

This was him in a vulnerable piece of mind. She felt like she should have hurt him while in this state but two things were holding her back from doing so. One, she was too tired to do so and two, she felt something inside her want to comfort him, the enemy. She groaned and broke Chase's trance. Chase looked down and, for the first time in fifteen hundred years, he blushed in a slightly pink pigment.

Standing up from his previous position, he whispered, "This will not be the only time you and I shall do battle. Farewell, Yin." He disappeared without a trace. As if on cue, Clay moved the bush branches away, so he could get to her.

"Hey, ya partners I foun' her. Woo wee, she looks mor' tired than a sloth runin' a mile", yelled Clay as he picked her up. Dojo decided to have a little peek at the Dragon of Yin; she was flushed and breathing deeply in and out.

"Wow, fighting with Chase Young must have been quite the work out, huh, kid", said the tiny dragon, he statement sounded more of a comment than a question. Suddenly Raimundo, Kimiko, and Omi came from behind the bushes.

"Dojo take us home. Yin needs rest", her stomach growled at them all angrily, "and some food apparently."
