Still don't own TDI or Xiaolin Showdown!

"How's it feel to have your daughter be the first one to fall, Jack?" Kimiko giggled as the episode concluded, and the redhead scowled.

"Shut up, Kimiko," the redhead snapped. "At least she made the biggest splash in the cliff diving!"

"Yeah, because of all the weights that Jess forces her to wear," Clay snorted.

"So, how long have you guys known that the girl dressed as Chase Young was his daughter?" Raimundo asked, and they blinked.

"Since we saw her the first time on the theme song," Kimiko, Clay and Jack all said in unison and giving him looks that asked if he was crazy.

"So, now what do we do?" Omi asked. "We cannot let them become fools!"

"No, that's the point, cue ball," Kimiko said shaking her head. "Trust me, Edward will watch over Sarah for this."

"Oh, you mean the one who stayed awake the longest?" Raimundo asked, and the others nodded. "So, what will happen if one of our kids gets the prize money?"

"Edward will probably put it in a bank account," Kimiko said nodding. "We don't want him wasting it all."

"Sarah will probably press charges against Jess," Jack said rubbing the back of his neck. "Speaking of whom, I haven't heard from her since Total Drama Island was being aired. Something's fishy."

"You're right," Clay said nodding gruffly. "She won't stop until she gets what she wants. She probably went off to my pap's place to tell him you left her. Kimiko, keep an eye on things and make sure they don't kill each other. I'm going to go call my pap."

"So, Raimundo, what about Justina?" Jack asked as Clay walked off. "She is your daughter, isn't she?"

"Yeah, we adopted her," he said smiling. "I'm glad the four of us became such good friends while abroad. It really has made things so much better in adult life."

"Yeah, we go from being isolated and completely alone to being four of the best friends in the world, with Jack being added on since he's family now," Kimiko smiled. "So, how much do you guys want to bet that Jess went to her dad's place?"

"I hope that's where she went and not where I think she went," Jack said turning an ashen white from his normal pale color.

… (Meanwhile)…

Jess rode on towards Canada, her blood boiling. She had an inclination that her daughter had gone somewhere to hide, but she hadn't known where to yet. But as she had been randomly flipping through the TV channels, she had seen her only daughter falling off of a cliff.

She had known that her child still had the weights on, of that she was sure, and she knew that her child was no doubt dead because of the stupid TV show. She also knew that she could willingly sue for manslaughter of her child.

Eventually, she was forced to go to a hotel after two straight days of driving. She checked in and turned on the TV to the channel that the show had been on, and was shocked to find that the show was still going. It was even more of a shock to her to see her daughter still alive, albeit not really participating in the current challenge.

And yet somehow, her nephew, the worthless son of her brother that had nearly been sent to Juvie was on the show as well, and all of them were now in anime costumes. The fact made her blood boil, until she saw an astonishing sight – Sarah was fast asleep with her arms wrapped around Chris' leg and one of her thumbs in her mouth.

And even more surprising was that Chris didn't care. She clenched her fists and grit her teeth angrily at the sight. From what she could see, there were a few blossoming romances on the island. Tyler and Logan were one that was obvious, with him swooning over her easily. Brett and Misty were slowly falling in love, and Jessie was falling in love with Marshall. Edward and Trinity were slowly falling in love, even though the two seemed to have nothing in common on the outside. Sarah was falling in love with Chris, if you knew where to look for the signs, and even then you had to know her to be able to find all the extremely well-hidden signs.

Sarah's acting like a dependent child happened to be one of those signs. Falling asleep with her arms wrapped around his leg was another sign, although that could easily have been brushed off as exhaustion or sleep-moving. Her chatting with Chris easily and making innuendos was another thing that Jess noticed, only to realize what the innuendos were.

"That ungrateful brat," Jess snarled as she broke a beer bottle with her clenching fist. "How dare she reveal my punishment methods!"

Sure enough, Sarah had already revealed the fact that she had a hard time sleeping at night because of fear that her mother would kill her. She'd also revealed that she was an early riser, even though she was far from being a morning person. Then there was the fact that she hated her mother – a fact that made Jess' blood boil even more – and then the fact that she was worried for her father.

Chris seemed to be the only one to pick up on the innuendos, to Jess' delight, until Edward explained to Trinity what was going on in his cousin's household. Then she and Edward completely understood the full magnitude of what Sarah was now implying. Jessie went behind the TV and jerked out all the cords to cut them and then place them back the way they had been.

Nobody messed with her household and got away with it. she was the queen of it, and she had every intention of keeping things that way. She didn't care how much it cost her and how illegal it was, she would keep her dominance in the household and earn her father's love back if it meant killing her husband and all three of their children!

If the momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy.

Now review!
