Cyra POV

"Jack! Jaaaack!" Wuya howled.

If she had asked me where he was, I would have told her, but the only thing she said to me was,"Someone needs to turn down this wretched music!"

I, for one, kind of liked it…

I watched Jack jump out of his new robot, and use the Changing Chopsticks to return to normal size from my seat at the computer. Weirdly enough, I was content to just watch him work: fascinated by talented people and their cool projects. Wuya was not so appreciative.

"Where have you been? And what is that horrible noise?" She complained.

"It's my new theme music!" Jack replied proudly, "I'm programing my robots to play it whenever I do something evil!"

Oh and another thing… Jack highly disapproved of my lack of evil spirit, and he constantly tried to get me to do things like practice my evil laugh or work on my gloating. Sometimes I humored him.

"TURN IT DOWN!" Wuya screeched, covering the ears she didn't have with her ghost tentacle things.

Jack gestured to the robot to lower the volume and then said shaking his head, "Wuya Wuya Wuya! You just don't recognize evil genius! You see the evil genius, right Cyra?" He turned to me grinning.

"He is pretty genius Wuya." I admitted, still impressed by his ability to make robots.

"If you were a genius, we'd have more Shen Gong Wu than the Changing Chopsticks!" Wuya growled.

"Don't mock the chopsticks!" He rebutted, crossing the chopsticks in front of him like he was posing.

"No Shen Gong Wu, loud music, a bumbling boy and his useless robots…" She went on.

Jack sneered and pressed some buttons on his watch, causing his robot to suddenly change… Into Wuya? "Who are you calling useless you hovering hag?" The robot replied, sounding and looking just like Wuya.

I gawked in astonishment, and said, "Wow… How did you do that?"

Jack laughed, "It's just my genius! I am truly an evil mastermind."

"What is this abomination..?" Wuya asked, glaring at her robot self in disgust.

"Ugly huh? That's my Chameleon-Bot. Show these two program 80A!" Jack ordered the robot.

The Chameleon-Bot took a few steps back and shifted shapes again… This time turning into a perfect replica of Jack. I stared amazed at the robot, having a weakness for cool things, and watched it shift into a monk, then a delivery guy.

"What kind of spell..?" Wuya wondered. "I've programmed in quite a selection, but my favorite is this!" He exclaimed, and pressed another button on his watch. He giggled as the robot changed shapes again, and I watched too, eager to see the next transformation.

"Is that… Kimiko?" Wuya asked, as the robot took the shape of the girl Xiaolin monk I had met recently.

"Or just a stunning recreation?" Jack said gesturing to it.

"Brilliant! We replace the real Kimiko with this duplicate, she'll steal all their Shen Gong Wu and…" Wuya started.

"Then it's world domination baby!" Jack finished, both of them looking as excited as ever.

After Jack came back with the newly captured Kimiko, we watched through the Chameleon-Bots eyes in order to get the Shen Gong Wu. It didn't matter all that much to me, but at least it would be a good show.

"You're wasting your time. Only Master Fung can open the Shen Gong Wu vault." Kimiko said from her cage, annoyed.

Jack approached the bird cage and said, "You're kind of impressed with me." He narrowed his eyes and grinned at her, flaunting his plan.

"So not!" She replied disgusted.

"Well, you'll be impressed by my Chameleon-Bot," He started, pulling a diagram out of nowhere. "But as perfect as it is… I'd rather have the real you around any day." He finished winking at her.

"Evil and creepy… huh. What a combination." She said rolling her eyes.

I then figured out he was flirting with her… and I guessed it wasn't working. I sort of stared at them both quietly, feeling the urge to ask Kimiko some questions about this sort of thing… But maybe later.

Aggravated, Jack replied, "Well maybe when I rule the world I…"

"Jack!" Wuya yelled at him, "A new Shen Gong Wu has been revealed… The helmet of Jong!"

After hearing that he turned back to Kimiko and said, "That's my cue."

"Enjoy you getting your bot kicked." Kimiko sneered from her cage.

"Never happen! Not with robo-you on my side. And don't bother sending a message to your friends. No transmission can escape the force-field around my very evil lair!" He grinned mockingly.

"Just going to play a game… Maybe update my address book." She replied looking uninterested.

"Just in case… Cyra, you stay here and watch her!" He ordered in my general direction. I simply saluted him, and he took off flying out of the basement.

"So…" I started, staring at her awkwardly.

"Something you want?" Kimiko asked, focused on her computer thing.

"Alright so this probably will sound really dumb, but I'm just curious. Was Jack flirting with you just now?" I questioned.

She froze for a second and the shuttered,

"Ugh… I guess so. Totally gross!" She said sounding disgusted.

I pondered for a second and then continued, "How do you tell… if someone likes you?"

She was taken off-guard by my question, and gave me a weird look, not really knowing if I had some sort of angle, or really didn't understand.

"I honestly don't know much about this kind of thing… No experience." I admitted.

"Well… I guess they act really nice to you… and guys try to impress you. There are little hints they leave, you just need to know how to pick them up." She started; I presumed she knew a lot about this subject.

"Can you tell me more?" I asked, genuinely interested, and I took a seat in front of her.

"Um sure… But I might need you to do something for me…" She said like she had just come up with a great idea.

"We just hit the lottery! All's we have to do now is pick up the prize!" Jack said, triumphantly looking at his computer screen where the Chameleon-Bot had just found the Shen Gong Wu vault.

"Hey Kimiko, you might wanna watch the monitor." He laughed.

"It may be your last chance to see your friends in one piece!" Wuya gloated.

"Whatever, I'm way deep into a game of mind-creeper." She responded sounding uninterested.

"Mind-creeper? I love that game!" Jack called, distracted. Then Wuya flew in front of him and he finished, "We'll play doubles after I conquer the world."

I was left behind again and still deep in thought from all the things Kimiko had told me… It was mind-numbing and strangely enlightening. At that moment I wished I had a girl that was a friend to educate me more on the subject of normal… A subject I seemed to be lacking in. I had never really had friends in my childhood, because of my strange upbringing. Before I came here, it never really bothered me how socially lacking I was, but now...

"Sweet!" She said excited, and then turned to me and nodded. As I promised, I took her cell-phone thing and connected it to Jack's main computer. Then a blue screen appeared on the computer, and Raimundo was… dancing? Walking backwards?

"What is this?" I asked.

"A virus Raimundo sent me! I isolated it and you transferred it to Jack's system." She explained, pleased as the cage broke down.

"Alright, good luck!" I smiled at her, and she grinned back, exiting. I should have felt worse for letting her mess up Jack's computer and helping her escape… but for some reason I felt strangely annoyed at him for flirting with her. Was this jealousy? Maybe…

When Jack returned, he was in a much better mood then I thought he would be. He had almost all of the Xiaolin monks Shen Gong Wu, and was feeling very pleased with himself.

"You have done well Jack Spicer," Wuya commented, feeling equally as pleased.

"Evil Genius well?" He grinned.

"Don't ruin the moment." She added.

"Sorry… But it is quite a haul!" He smiled.

"Yes! Especially this!" Wuya said happily approaching the Helmet of Jong. "Soon Mala Mala Jong will rise again."

"What's a Mala Mala Jong?" Jack asked confused.

"All good things in time, dear Jack… And some bad ones too…" She laughed evilly.

"Oh yeah! Cyra, how did Kimiko get out? And what's with this stupid virus?" He questioned me.

"Oh yeah, I helped her infect the virus to your computer so she could get out." I admitted bluntly.

"What? Why! That's hurtful!" He whined. "Wait… Oh wait I understand! You're finally embracing your evil side! I'm so proud!" Jack gushed, beaming at me like a proud teacher.

I gave him a puzzled look and replied, "Maybe?"

I really didn't understand guys at all…
