Xiaolin Temple / Temple Garden
Kimiko was sitting in the Temple Garden, looking at the small fire pit where the flames were slowly dying.
She gave a sigh and let a couple of tears fall, she quickly whipped them off with the sleeve of her robe when she heard footsteps.
"Kimiko?"
It was Raimundo. He apporached Kimiko and sit down next to her. She turned away from him and continued to look at the small fire pit.
"Kim? What's wrong?"
"N-nothing." - she tried to say it normally but her voice cracked. She cursed herself for it and tried to turn away from him even more, but he wouldn't let her.
"Kimiko, were you crying?" - he asked as he grabbed her shoulder.
She didn't answered. He was about to ask again, but stopped when he heard a sob. Then he heard more.
Kimiko pulled her knees up and laid her head on them, wrapping her arms around her knees. She was sobbing quetly to herself.
Rai didn't know what to do so he just hugged her. They were in that position, Kimiko buring herself in Raimundo's chest and his arms around her protectively. She cried until there were no more tears to cry.
"Kimiko, what's wrong?" - Rai asked while softly rubbing her back.
"I-It's.. that I-I'm.. my element.. it's evil!" - she screamed at the end, and buried her face deeply in his chest.
Rai looked shocked then looked at her like she was crazy.
"W-what.. makes you think that your element is.. evil?"
"F-fire is, is destroying everything above itself! It burns you, your home, your loved ones! It does nothing but destroy.."
Kimiko was about to cry again even thought there were no more tears to cry, when she felt Rai shaking.
She looked up at him and was shocked to see him trying to hold his laughter back.
"What a-are you laughing at!" - she screamed at him and he fell on his back laughing, she just started at him like he was crazy.
"Well?" - she asked when Rai finally managed to control himself.
"I-It's just that you're so stupid."
"E-excuse me?"
Rai sit up and looked her in the eyes.
"You say your element is evil, but it's not, it's unconcerned. It's how you use it what decides if it's evil or good. Just like the other elements.
Water can be the drink that you drink to stay alive but can be a flood to that will take others life.
Earth can be the cradle to plants we eat but an earthquake can take our homes away too.
Wind can be a light breeze that will give relief but can be a hurrican too that will destroy everything.
And so can fire be something dangerous, like a forest-fire, but can be the light too that will lead our way in the dark.
Do you understand now, Kimiko?"
"Yes.." - she said and hugged him close.
"Thank you, thank you for saving me from myself, for showing me that fire is not evil. I promise I will use my power for good, I will be good!" - she said tearing up again, but now, from the happines.
"I bet that, my little Fiery Savior." - he told her smiling.
Yeah, Kimiko really was his Fiery Savior, because whether she know or not, she saved him. And not from only the evil guys, but from loneliness and himself too, when she told him she loved him.
And they just sat there, in front of the fire, letting the light warm their bodies, but not their hearts, because that was already warm with love.
