Toru: GRRR!

Me: what?

Toru: I said even less in the last chapter than I did the first

Me: what?! No you didn't I'll prove it…you said 40 words in the first chapter-

Toru: whoopty-damn do.

Me: let me finish…and 159 words last chapter. I think you owe me an apology.

Toru: how 'bout I don't kill you and you tell part of my origin and we're even.

Me: *sighs* I'm not going to be able to win with you, am I? Remember I own nothing.

Previously:

The other monks gasped. "A fifth dragon? How can this be, master Fung said there we're only 4 dragons." Omi was in denial how could there have been another dragon, and why would Master Fung lie about it?

"I am afraid that is not entirely true young one." Suddenly Master Fung was standing right in front of the monks

Kimiko was seething with anger at this point and she didn't know why. "How could you lie to us, Master?! Who is that girl and why didn't you tell us about the fifth dragon?! What were you afraid we couldn't handle it? TELL US!"

Kimiko had every right to be angry, as did the others. Master Fung had no choice he had to tell them.

"Follow me young monks, and I shall explain everything"

Chapter 3: the fifth dragon

In the hall of scrolls

The monks all followed Master Fung into the hall and he pulled out and ancient looking scroll. He unraveled it revealing a picture of the 5 dragons. Suddenly the images on the scroll floated into the air ready to tell their story.

Master Fung looked at the young xiaolin apprentices with his usual with a straight face. "As you are aware there are opposites too every element, for wind it is earth, and for water it is fire. But one element; lighting has no opposite making it the most dangerous dragon."

"So with no opposite was the first dragon of lighting like the leader or something?" asked Raimundo.

Master Fung nodded "Yes. The first warrior to embody the dragon of lighting was a warrior named Su Lee" A picture of a woman with scarlet hair, silver eyes, and elven-like features appears.

"Wow she's beautiful" Kimiko said admire this female warrior.

"Wait, so a girl was the leader of the first dragons, there is no way could be possible?" Omi was quickly silenced with a clunk on the head delivered by Kimiko.

"Ahem. Su Lee's sister, Jun was the dragon of fire. This is why you had such a strong reaction to this girl Kimiko. Your past lives were crying out to each other."

Kimiko had a forlorn look, "But master what I was feeling when I was battling Toru wasn't a sense of kinship but… hatred-no a rivalry and I can't explain why. It felt like we'd been feuding forever."

Dojo then intervened "With good reason you see even though they cared for each other Su Lee and Jun were rivals always trying to outdo each other. But none of the other warriors could match her strength, physically or mystically. As you can imagine it put a strain on their relationship."

"It was kinda strange why Toru went straight for Kimiko." Said Rai.

Clay was starting to grow impatient, sure this was interesting and all but they were still lied to. "Yeah, ok. This great and all but it doesn't explain why you never told us about the fifth dragon."

"We never told you because we were hoping she would never be incarnated." Master Fung with his usual calm demeanor.

The other gasped at what they just heard, how could Master Fung say something so cruel.

Omi was almost flabbergasted "How can you say that master?"

Raimundo didn't like what he just heard either, "Yeah master Fung sure Toru's heylin but I'm sure she can be saved!"

Dojo held his head down, if only they knew. "It isn't that simple. Su Lee was just as obsessed with power and being the best like Chase Young. She nearly destroyed the world to do it, and history almost repeated it's self today."

Ok now the monks were thoroughly confused. History repeating its self what does that have to do with anything?

The dragon of fire thought she understood, "Does this have anything to with my showdown today?"

"You 2 had exerted so much chi in such a short period of time that you almost fused with your dragons, and one time was bad enough you ever wonder why the Philippians has so many islands to start with? Su Lee thought the only way to become the ultimate warrior was to fuse with her dragon so she exerted all of her chi leaving only her dragons." The green dragon explained.

Master Fung thought is imperative to warn his young apprentices "This is something you must never do young ones for there must always be a balance. And without her own chi to keep her dragons in check is caused a surge in devastating energy, neither good nor evil. All Su Lee could think about was power, and Jun was left with the impossible task of killing her sister."

"No way Jun wouldn't-couldn't do that!" yelled Kimiko. She didn't want to believe her past life would do something so horrible; it went against everything that Xiaolin stood for. They didn't kill. Cause that would mean she would have to Toru too, wouldn't it?

Dojo tried to calm her down and explain, "It's not like Jun wanted to but that she had no choice. Every other method failed."

Flashback:

Su Lee, covered in white markings and static surging all around her, she flies over a burning village. Su Lee laughs as she discharges so much electricity into the helpless villagers until they explode. Blood splatters all over a woman as her husband and child are lost forever, but Su Lee quickly reunites them.

Jun watches the carnage taking place, and is horrified at what she sees, her sister usually loving and caring for all life now callously taking it away and enjoying it. Ripping families from each other, destroying lives and laughing at their pain. This needed to end.

Jun stood on top of a temple waiting to face her sister.

"Su Lee!" Jun yelled.

In a flash of lightning Su Lee was standing on the roof top in front of her sister.

"What is it, I'm busy." Said Su Lee coldly.

"You must stop this, you are hurting people."

"I'll do whatever I please, sister and if you get in my way I will kill you."

"Then do it, you are no better than the bandits how took are parents away, so killing your own flesh and blood should be no problem."

Su Lee screamed and lighting crashed, "I am nothing like them!"

"oh, no?!" this was Jun's final chance to get through, "Look at what you have been doing killing when we do not kill, taking life when we are to protect it, and laughing when we are to cry when it is lost. Tell me then sister how are not like them!"

Su Lee started to cry, she was like the bandits now, she had sworn to protect life and the innocent, but as she gazed at the village she had so ruthlessly torched she truly saw the devastation she had caused. Her glowing white eyes had returned to their normal shade of brown, the markings were losing their luster as well, and the electricity that surrounded her body dissipated.

"Oh gods what have I done" Su Lee turned from Jun covering her tearful face.

But Jun smile and hugged her sister. "It is alright now, I'll help you, and I'll never leave you."

Suddenly Su Lee was glowing again, her dragon had felt the hidden knife, and pushed the first dragon of fire back.

"Liar! You are here to kill me!" Su Lee's voice sounded demonic.

"NO, that is not true!" Jun pleaded with her sister, yes that's was her original plan or rather the elders but she could never go through with it.

"You are a liar Jun and you will pay with your life for your tretury!" "NO!" Su Lee regained control for a second. "Jun please…kill me!" Su Lee begged.

"I-I-I can't!" Su Lee was all the family Jun had left she couldn't lose her too.

"You must I can't bear the thought of hurting anyone else, especially you so please Jun!" Su Lee struggled to maintain control.

"I can't!" there was a sound of pleading in Jun's voice begging her sister to not make her do this.

"DO IIIIIITTTT!"

Su Lee lost her hold and Jun, eyes full of tears quickly thrusted the blade into her sister heart. The blood from Su Lee's mouth dripped onto Jun's hand. As Jun looked up and saw not sadness in her sister's eyes but happiness, content.

Tears were now coming down Jun's face as she pulled the blade out.

Su Lee feel to her knees, Jun held onto her "C-can you e-ever f-f-forgive me…" Su Lee's voice was shaky and her body was beginning to grow cold, "For a-all that I h-h-have done, J-Jun?"

Jun smiled at her, holding her hand and said the one word to bring her sister's soul to peace, "Always."

Su Lee smiled she breathed 2 shaky breaths then a final one, as the light in her eyes vanished. Jun held her beloved sister as she cried and screamed over the loss. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ! NONONONO!"

End of flashback

The monks all had tears in their eyes after hearing such a tragic tale.

Dojo barely had the heart to continue, "So you see Jun had no choice and it was Su lee's final wish, and the reason why we didn't want her reincarnated was that if history was to repeat its self then, you might have no choice either."

Omi was still confused though, not about Su Lee but of Toru, "But Master how come no one ever went looking for the fifth dragon before?"

"We did shortly after the others arrival but with no luck, for whatever reason be it destiny or coincidence Chase Young must have found Toru before her powers surfaced and kept her hidden, training her until she was strong enough." Master Fung said still maintaining his calm demeanor.

"Well I reckon she's mighty strong already." said the dragon of earth.

"Yeah she easily kicked our butts." Raimundo added.

"I don't care she's still one of us, so we have to save her." Perhaps it was Kimiko's past life talking not wanting to loss her sister again.

"Yes if she is under Chase Young's control then we should help her. It is our duty as xiaolin monks!" Omi was all set for this new self-proclaimed mission.

Master Fung simply nodded, "yes it is. Then it appears that you have a new task young ones".
