----- Xiaolin Temple same night -----

Raimundo stared at Kari in slight shock. "Kari? Is everything alright?" Master Fung called and opened the door. He soon saw Raimundo on his knees and Kari by the mirror, quickly noting her new star marking. "Kari?"

"Argh! Why do you keep calling me by that name? I am Ahknam!" Kari snapped and Master Fung sighed.

"I was hoping this would happen in the morning... But oh well. Raimundo, come with me, bring Ka-- er um Ahknam with you to the scroll room. I'll explain everything to the other's later." Raimundo got up as he looked to Ahknam, who was in Kari's body, and motioned for him to follow behind. Ahknam followed with his arms crossed. Raimundo guided the way to the scroll room as they got there in no time.

"Master Fung please tell me what's going on." Raimundo pleaded very confused as to what happened to Kari. Master Fung sighed.

"It is very simple. Both blood lines of dragons can communicate with the dragon's before them through the other side. But their bodies are used in the process. I'm surprised Kari was able to do this so early on. It takes many years to do this."

"WHY THE HELL AM I STUCK IN A CHILD'S BODY?!"

"Easy, just think of something from your time, like something you did... Like winning a battle. You're the the third dragon, correct?" Ahknam nodded. Master Fun sighed.

"You should know how to do this by now then." Master Fung stated.

"It has been very long since I came back to the living. I forgot. Not only that but I was summoned by a child for the first time in the Copying dragon's history!" Kari's body began to glow and the star marking vanished.

"... huh...? What happened?"

"Nothing just a dream... Go back to bed. Raimundo, stay here I need to... Talk with you." Kari blinked then left them be and Master Fung looked at Raimundo. "What happened before this?" Raimundo looked to Fung.

"I couldn't sleep so I went for a walk, and I was passing by Kari's room until I heard talking. I went to listen and I busted in when I figured out is was Hannibal Bean. He was trying to take her away something about an offer she couldn't resist, but she refused to go. He must of said something that upsetted her a lot because she was crying. Please don't tell her I told you, I only tell you because I'm concerned about her and she was in stage one also." Raimundo finished talking. Master Fung frowned, worried about Kari.

"I fear that the seed that Chase has planted in Kari is about to sprout soon..." He muttered. "Raimundo, go back and get some sleep. I... I need to meditate on this..." Master Fung then left the room and went to his own. Raimundo had to run by Kari's since he dropped his teddy bear before he busted into the room, can't go to sleep without that could him. Quickly picking up his teddy before going to room finally feeling tired and happy knowing Kari was safe in her room. After a few minutes he got into his room, and right as he laid on his mat holding his teddy bear Raimundo fell right to sleep.

---- Chase's Palace next day ----

It was early in the morning as everyone was asleep in their rooms. Kaiser was sleeping with Snowflake curled up next to her as black "X" appeared under her left eye as on side of the "x" the line was longer ending near the crook of her lip. Kaiser woke up rubbing her eyes before sitting up in bed.

"Wonder what's going to happen today." Kaiser said as she got up to go brush her hair as she looked to the mirror and stopped and looked at her face confused. "W-what the heck is this, did that idiot Jack come back to draw on my face or something." Kaiser said as she was going to hit him when she saw him. But all of a sudden it glowed purple as something took over her.

"Well look at this, I look pretty good...Hold up, why do I got boobies?" Kaiser looked down at herself in her pj's then head looked straight up at the mirror and shouted waking up Snowflake. Jack came and knocked on the door.

"Hey Kaiser, I found some of your stuff and thought you'd like it." He said, holding a few electronics that belonged to her. Kaiser looked at the boy with a raised eyebrow.

"Kaiser, who the hell is that? My name isn't Kaiser you pathetic imbecile, I am the greatly feared Apollyon." The person talking as Kaiser looked to Jack with her eyes that slightly screamed insane. Snowflake sat on the bed confused as to what was happening. Jack blinked and then took her to Chase, who was meditating.

"We have a problem." Jack said as he entered the meditation room. "Sorry for interrupting your meditation Chase, but Kaiser's acting... weird..." Chase opened his eyes to look at Jack to see what he was talking about, then looked to Kaiser and saw and "X" on her face as he was now standing on the ground.

"Get your grubby hands off of me you swine! And I told you my name isn't Kaiser it's--" Kaiser shouts but then gets interrupted by Chase.

"Apollyon, it's been over a century since I've last seen or heard from you." Chase walked over and bowed to Kaiser. Kaiser bowed as well greeting Chase.

"From the looks of things you're still young and doing well...As for myself I'm stuck in a young girl's body, nice looking sure, but I prefer my own lovely features...Wait don't tell me she's my descendent." Looking to Chase for answers.

"Well of course she is. I must say she is quite a fighter, almost like you before you went insane." Chase added the last part as Kaiser started to laugh with a grin. Jack watched, confused at the scene.

"Ah... What's going on here?" He gulped and shifted his gaze from Chase to Kaiser and back to Chase. Chase and Kaiser looked to Jack.

"Jack this is Apollyon, he was the last Mercilus dragon of illusions a century ago. Both Kari and Kaiser can communicate with their ancestors, but normally it's difficult to learn how to so it's a surprise to see it actually happen so early on." Chase explained to Jack as simply as he could because even a genius can have a hard time understanding somethings. Jack nodded, completely understanding.

"Alright, m-maybe Kari's activated as well? I-i mean this spiritual-communication." Jack stated, not sure how he should handle this. Chase nodded his head as signaling Jack was probably most lightly correct about Kari being able to do the same thing.

"This is nice and all, but I'd like really to go before I decide to go make a mess of the place." Kaiser's eyes gave off a more insane look as Chase glared at Kaiser.

"Apollyon you go doing that and you'll end up causing Kaiser to go insane too, I can't be having you mess you my plans. Think of something you accomplished back in the day and you'll get out." Chase crossed his arms over his chest not amused. Kaiser gave a childish puff of the cheek as her foot stomped down once before the mark on her face disappeared. Jack blinked and tapped Kaiser's shoulder.

"uh-K-Kaiser? H-here's your stuff." He handed Kaiser her things with a small smile. Kaiser looked to Jack forgetting what happened just a while ago as she took them out of Jack's hands.

"I was wondering where my stuff was...Thanks for returning them." Kaiser said casually to Jack having just a minor problem saying thanks. Chase watched carefully as he wanted to make sure Apollyon didn't cause any mental problems, which he didn't.

"Kaiser go get dressed you're still in your pajamas." Chase said looking at her as her eyes widened and looked down.

"What the heck?!" Kaiser was thinking what the hell is going on, she'd never leave her room while in her sleeping clothes as she rushed off with her belongings going to get dressed. Jack chuckled and then left the room to do his chores.

"Again, sorry for bothering you Chase. I'll leave you alone now." He called with a wave and grabbed a broom and dust pan while on the way out. Chase watched as Jack went off, Jack was doing fairly well which made him wonder. "Out of all the other times when doing something so simple Jack goes and messes up, however watching over and keeping an eye on a power girl which is a complex job Jack isn't doing anything wrong. I wonder if there is a solution behind this all." Chase shrugged his shoulders as he went back to meditating to get a little more time to himself before Wuya woke up and Kaiser finished getting ready for the day.

Once in her room she pulled out her normal clothes for the day since they aren't going to hunt wu now as she turned on her MP3 player on the small speakers she had. Kaiser decided to play "Evanesence's" song "Missing" while she got ready. As the song played and Snowflake laying on the bed Kaiser lightly singed along.

----- Xiaolin temple that afternoon -----

Master Fung watched his students as they lined up for training, Kari slightly dazed as she nearly passed out on Kimiko's shoulder. The two girls had become pretty good friends in the past two weeks of Kari's arrival. Kimiko rolled her eyes and snapped her fingers in front of Kari's face.

"I'M UP!!! ... Wait.. what?" Kari blinked and looked around innocently to see everyone snickering. She pouted and crossed her arms. Master Fung cleared his throat and everyone looked at him.

"Today I would like you five to spar with one another. But--" Master Fung took out the ocarina and played note 1. Kari blinked and changed to stage 1. "Kari will be your opponent. She is the closest thing we can get to facing the dragon of illusions. This is in preparation to facing her. Clay, you are up first." Kari blinked and headed to the sparring arena.

"Clay, don't hold back." Kari narrowed her eyes and smirked as Clay came into the arena, everyone else watching, even Dojo. Clay tipped up his hat as he slowly walked over to the sparing area where Kari was. Clay got into his fighting formation looking at Kari.

"Ready when you are Kari." He said waiting patiently for her to make the first move. Dojo watched with the others on the sidelines to see who is going to win. Clay waited a while longer before he rushed her as he made his fists covered in earth. Kari yawned and vanished, reappearing behind him.

"Sloppy, fix your form, too slow." Kari corrected as she leaned an elbow on his shoulder, scratching behind her ear. Clay swung his hand behind him to hit Kari as he was getting into his focused sparring mind set. Clay looked like he was going to land the hit, but Kari again vanished and appeared above him.

"Not hard enough. Am I speaking gibberish? Kaiser will be ruthless! You have to as well. She won't hold back and you need to get better." Kari informed and jumped off his head and narrowed her eyes at him. "Ok, for real this time." Clay let out a puff, he knew Kari was right about Kaiser not holding back when it came to fighting her so he punched the ground as pillars of earth popped up around Kari.

"You're faster than a chicken running from a coyote." Clay said as Raimundo, Dojo and the rest on the sidelines groan from another one of his weird sayings.

"Come on Clay you got this! Just put your mind to it!" Dojo cheered for Clay as he sat on Omi's head. Kari looked to Master Fung, who nodded. Kari smirked.

"Clay, you're nowhere near beating me. This actually helps!" Kari giggled then rushed at Clay kicking him in the gut sending him flying. "Kaiser's illusions can do anything she wants them to do! So be prepared for anything... NEXT!" Kari called, knowing Clay was hurt too much to continue. Master Fung looked to Omi and gestured him to go next as Clay lightly limped back as he had lost picking up his hat that fell off when he was running and then sat at the sidelines with the rest.

"Kari, prepare for a most humiliating defeat." Omi began and Kari smirked.

"Please. Come at me Omi and I'll show you what I can do." Kari then watched as Omi rushed at her.

"WATER!!!" He called and attacked Kari with all his might, Kari blocking with a yawn.

"Nope, sorry... Try from another angle." Kari began as she punched him in the head sending him back. Omi growled and stood up. Raimundo snicked a bit when Omi got hit in his big head, but also winced since it looked a bit painful. Dojo flinched when Omi got punched continuing to watch the fight. Omi saw a butterfly but then shook his head.

"Very well. TORNADO STRIKE!!!" He called and Kari smirked, knowing he'd do that. She held out one finger as Omi rushed at her, stopping him dead in his tracks. Kari then punted him upwards and finished the match. Raimundo couldn't hold it as he laughed a bit at poor Omi getting kicked.

"Next." She called with crossed arms while Omi limped back as well. Kimiko came up and took a stance. She then went to Kari and aimed a punch for the head.

"Really Kimi? You are as predictable." Kari sighed, moving slightly as Kimiko went into the wall. Kimiko then went to attack Kari's back but was stopped by a pillar of metal coming from the ground. "You are too head strong, like Omi was. Cool off and think first. Don't act on impulse, that will get you killed in Kaiser's illusions." Kari reminded as Kimiko growled.

"I'M NOT HEADSTRONG!!!" She called and went for another attack. Kari sighed and then brought her right hand up diagonally so it met above her left shoulder and then backhanded Kimiko, sending her flying, her eyes closed the whole time. Dojo's eyes went large as did Clay's, Omi's and Raimundo's eyes.

"Damn!" The boys shouted all at the same time.

"Next." Kari huffed and saw Raimundo come up. She frowned and held her hand up, beginning to count. "Head-strong, not serious, easily distracted, poor execution of moves, the list keeps going on. But whatever. Come at me." Kari yawned and scratched behind her ear. Raimundo breathed in and out as he stood before Kari. He really didn't want to fight her, but he had to suck it up. Raimundo had already fought with Kaiser twice and lost twice, he was going to be smart about this.

Raimundo created a wind current to wipe around Kari to keep her in place so she wouldn't be able to dodge him.

"You insult me Raimundo." Kari called and snapped her fingers, making the wind vanish. "Try again." Raimundo let out a small growl under his breath as he had BOTH arms out to each side of him then claps them together creating a strong wind current sending it flying her way.

"TYPHOON BOOM!" Raimundo cried out as the wind rushed at Kari as he could hear his other friends in the background cheering for him, but had to keep focused if he wanted to win. Kari let out a chuckle and jumped up.

"TYPHOON BOOM!!!!" She called out, copying him and the two boom's canceled each other out. Kari giggled. "You've been in her illusions. You've seen dead people come to life Raimundo, what's to say she won't put you against an evil copy of you?" Kari began to glow. Once the glowing stopped she looked Like Raimundo! "Come at me... Me..." She even sounded like him!! Raimundo smirked as he used his wind as a major speed boost blasting himself at his replica.

"Use that head of yours, I'm not gonna making this easy." Kari stated, blocking Raimundo and sending him flying backwards. "I am still Kari, but I look like you." Kari smirked and approached Raimundo, glowing and changing into Clay. "Come on." She called out using Clay's voice. "I've told you what Kaiser's illusions can do. Come at me, Or," She changed into Omi. "Me! Or would you rather." Now she was Kimiko. "Sweet lil old me. OH! Maybe You'd like another form." Kari began to glow again and then changed into an albino dragon like Dojo, only female and having all of Kari's features. She let out a menacing roar, scaring Raimundo. Raimundo's eyes widened as his friend's let out a shriek as well. He balled up his fist, he knew well enough Kaiser could of easily just end him if she wanted to, she just toyed with me.

"It doesn't matter who or what you turn into Kari, even if I lose this match I've already improved by knowing what not to do when fighting Kaiser!" Raimundo shouted as he flew and kicked Kari in the jaw, he didn't want to hurt her however it was training. Kari smirked at this and then grabbed Raimundo and laughed a booming laugh, shaking the ground slightly.

"THAT'S IT!! THAT'S IT!!!" Kari then began to shrink back to her stage one self. "Raimundo, I'm happy that you figured it out!! I was Hoping you would since you already fought Kaiser!"Kari called out then faced the others. "What I was trying to show you was no matter what she shows you, no matter how scary, it's still just an illusion. It may hurt you and it may even be stronger than you, but by knowing that it's fake can help a lot!" Kari pointed out and Master Fung nodded.

"Indeed that is Kari. Thank you for the help."

"No problem." Kari giggled then blinked with wide eyes. "AAAAAHHHH!!! MY HEAD HURTS!!! MY BACK IS ACHING!!! Kari called out as another wu revealed itself. Dojo started to sneeze at the same time and scratching himself.

"Y-you guys, it's wu hunting time! Grab the scroll and lets go!" Dojo shouted as he grew big and scratching himself. Clay hopped on figuring Kimiko or Omi will grab it like always while Raimundo looks to Kari.

"Need a hand Kari?" He asked kindly. Kari blinked and sighed.

"... I-I w-wanna t-try something first." She gulped then took a few steps backwards, ran up and then jumped, almost landing on Dojo but she hid her head on his side and fell to the ground. "... I-I would like some h-h-h-help..." She gulped, not liking that she had to ask for help, crossing her arms and blushing out of embarrassment. Raimundo gave a smiled to his friend as he gently picked Kari up and placing her onto Dojo. Raimundo grabbed the scroll and jumped onto the dragon as he handed it to Kimiko for safe keeping. Clay was the last one to get onto Dojo.

"Everyone on? Alright then off we go!" Kari sat on Dojo's head, speaking in unison with him as they turned their heads in the direction of the wu. Kimiko opened the scroll and began to read.

"Icicle rod! It can freeze any opponent in ice for a certain amount of time as well as make it rain icicles, only when it is raining outside though." Kimiko informed.

"That wu would be great if we wanted to play hockey at the temple." Dojo said happily as everyone shook their head at his corny joke. But Kari let out a giggle.

"Good one Dojo. I love playing hockey in the winter! I'll have to do that some time." She said with a smile, patting and rubbing Dojo's head. Dojo smiled as he was praised for his joke by Kari too busy focusing on locating the wu to thank Kari properly.

"This way! Over here!!" Kari and Dojo called out. "THAT WAY! THAT WAY!!" Soon they landed, Kari not jumping off this time. Kari looked around and rushed off towards the wu at top speed, everyone else close behind.

"There!" Kari called and pointed to a blue and violet rod that was stuck in a tree. Kimiko went for it at full speed. But what Kimiko didn't know was that a figure in a black and red ninja outfit with a hood covering their entire face was also going for the wu.

"We'll have it before Jack and the others get here!" Raimundo cheered gleefully. Clay nodding in agreement with Raimundo's statement. Kari nodded happily, her casual clothing swaying in the cool breeze. She then raced up to go as backup for Kimiko, but she was stopped by Jack's robots.

"Jack-bots attack!" Jack called out and distracted the other monks.

"Clay throw me at that one!" Kari called while pointing to a random Jack-bots as she rushed towards Clay. "Throw me as hard as you can!" She then jumped up and tucked herself into a ball. Clay looked to Kari and at the right time grabbed her and swung her around and flung her really hard at the one Jack-bot she pointed to.

"SPIKED-STAR-BALL!!" Kari called as metal spikes arched like scythes appeared on her back as she spun, hitting the jack-bot then ricocheting into another, then another, forming a star or pentagram shape. She then landed on Clay's back left but then skid until she was on his right. She smirked as the jack-bots exploded into pieces. Kari nodded to Clay and went to attack another bot, her back still had the scythes. She then made scythes appear on her outer wrist as she cut down two more Jack-bots with ease while Kimiko was close to grabbing the Icicle rod. At the same time the figure also grabbed hold of the wu pulling it towards her body as the wu glowed. Raimundo and Clay while fighting see Kimiko and a hooded person holding the wu.

"Kaiser I challenge you to a xiaolin showdown!" Kimiko called out after she realized what had happened, easily figuring out it was Kaiser. Kaiser pulled down her hood and her hair was tied up as her choker in its normal spot. Raimundo eyes widened, Kimiko was going to face Kaiser in a showdown.

"Alright Kimiko, I accept your challenge." Kaiser said with a smirk tugging at her lips as Wuya and Chase stood near by to block anyone who dare stood in the way.

"I wager my tangle web comb, and the challenge is a swinging race, first to swing and grab the wu wins!" Kimiko challenged with a smirk. Kaiser shook her head with a smirk.

"Alright fine and to make things interesting I won't be using a wu, you'll be the next one to fall victim to my wrath kid." Raimundo grew worried as everything around them started to change into the showdown arena. Dojo went into kimiko's bag which Omi was kind enough to hold pulling out the scroll that belonged to the Mercilus dragon and opened it on the ground. Kimiko growled as trees and cliffs surrounded them.

"Gong yi tempai!!" Kimiko and Kaiser called out and then they raced off.

"KIMIKO!!! REMEMBER WHAT I TOLD YOU ALL BACK AT THE TEMPLE!!" Kari called and her voice echoed through the area. Kimiko nodded to Kari.

"TANGLE WEB COMB!!!" Kimiko called and began to swing from the trees and then on to rock pillars. While Kaiser was doing the same thing swinging from the trees as she saw the string coming for her.

"This is stupid child's play." Right as it was going to tangle Kaiser up she grabbed it and soon her hand engulfed with a black mist destroying the strings and continuing after Kimiko hot on her trail.

"No way, how in tarnation did she do that?!" Clay shouted shocked. The scroll of the dragon of illusions began to give off a black mist as Dojo pulled his ears. "Are you serious!" He shouted eyes looking like they were going to pop out of his head.

Chase watched as Wuya was rooting for Kaiser to kick Kimiko's butt and make a fool of her. Kari, still in stage one, snatched the scroll from Dojo and began to read, putting Dojo on her shoulders.

Kimiko looked behind her and saw Kaiser closing in. "Judolette Flip Fire!!!" She called out, getting an extra boost. "Tangle web comb!" She grabbed onto another branch and kept pressing on. Kaiser's eyes glowed the same black mist as more of her appeared confusing the comb which one to tangle as they mixed up as they all tossed knives at Kimiko's back.

"Dojo update us!" Raimundo said looking at Dojo.

"W-well, from the new information in the scroll, the dragon of illusions can conduct a black mist and depending on her use for it, Kaiser can: use it like acid, use it for sneaking around, a sleeping gas, or even a highly poisonous toxin." Dojo shivers after explaining. They all watched Kaiser manipulates the mist into throwing knives, were tossing them at Kimiko. Kimiko gasped and did her best to dodge, getting nicked a few times.

"AAAHHH!!" Kimiko screamed, her tangle web comb almost losing it's grip. "I-it's o-only a-an illusion... Just an illusion..." She thought with a gulp. Kaiser chuckled as she made a few clones to help. The clones talked at the same time as Kaiser.

"Why not give up using that stupid wu, it's useless against me Kimiko." One of the Kaiser clones got to Kimiko and flipped backwards kicking her in the bottom of her jaw. The other clones went ahead as Kaiser was finally able to grab Kimiko by one of the pigtails and slammed her onto the ground of one of the pillars. Kimiko let out a yelp, coughing a little blood.

"T-Tangle web comb!!" She called out and captured Kaiser then went back to getting the wu quickly, almost grabbing it, but one of Kaiser's clones used her as a platform and got it first. "Wh-what?! Where did you---" The showdown was over and Kimiko lost. The original Kaiser now free of the comb and holding the comb and the rod as Kaiser kicked Kimiko in the stomach.

"Looks like you didn't learn much did you, you sorry excuse for a monk." Kaiser said as all the clones disappeared into black mist. Wuya and Jack were cheering that Kaiser won. Chase smirked at the fact that his Mercilus dragon's had her first win.

Raimundo was shocked and winced at the painful blow. Kari growled and raced to help Kimiko. "Leave her alone!!" She called and then brought her arms diagonally to the right and then slashed down diagonally left, making a big gust of wind to pick up the dust and blind Kaiser for a moment. Kari then grabbed Kimiko and brought her back to the group. As the group gathered around the two.

"Th-thanks Kari..." Kimiko smiled and Kari nodded.

"No problem Kimi!" Kari giggled, still in stage one. Raimundo got closer to check on Kimiko as he said.

"Hey you got close Kimiko, what matters right now is that you didn't get that seriously hurt." Clay nodded his head. Dojo whipped the sweat off his forehead. Kaiser got the dust to go away and looked to the group of monks and rolls eyes at them before headed over to her group.

"I'll heal you up Kimiko, hold still it might sting a little." Kari stated as she sat Kimiko down, hovered her hands near her and began to glow as well as Kimiko's wounds began to glow as well and healed rapidly. Omi smiled and comforted Kimiko by patting her back once she sat up.

"You did very well Kimiko! I am most impressed in your abilities... For a girl at least." Kari and Kimiko glared at him.

"THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN?!" Kimiko and Kari both growled in anger. Clay and Raimundo shook their head as Omi has made the girls mad.

"Way to go little partner, you're gone and made them mad, you're just lucky Kaiser didn't hear you say that too." Clay said while fixing his hat.

Soon they were Jack-bots surrounding them for a moment, Jack blinked and looked at his watch, a bug had landed on the buttons.

"Aw crap!" He huffed and began pressing buttons, but the Jack-bots weren't responding. Kaiser rolled her eyes walking over to Jack to help the poor soul. Kari growled and then put her hands on the ground, making a big wing storm with rocks flying around, mixing wind and earth. Dust was picked up and Kari looked at Dojo, telling him telepathically to get them out of there. Dojo started to grow in size telling everyone to get on.

"Let me see that you idiot." Kaiser said taking Jack's arm where the watch was. Jack nodded and let her see his watch, bowing his head in shame, not happy he let this happen. Kaiser took off the top of it and took a small senbon needle she keeps in her pouch and disconnect a few things. "Anndd...Done." After disconnection the last little thing the robots fell to the ground. Jack widened his eyes and watched Kaiser work, thinking that maybe she and Kari worked on technology together or something since they were both really good with it.

"Good work Kaiser." Wuya said placing a hand on her hip as she turned. "We got what we wanted now lets go." She added starting to walk away. Chase looked to Jack giving the "pick up your robots and lets go." look. Dojo Watched as the robots fell down. Jack nodded and went to pick up parts of his robots, the few that were still intact helped. Kaiser watched as Jack struggled to get them all together so walked over and started to help. Raimundo watched as the few robots that still worked, Jack, and Kaiser were picking up the bots. Still surprising that Kaiser would actually help. Kari looked at Raimundo and Kimiko, who were a little too close, Kimiko leaning on him as he watched what went on down below. Kari sighed.

"I knew it..." She thought and then looked ahead as she crawled onto Dojo's snout with an upset sigh, sitting in her favorite position. "... Have I been to mean? I guess... N...Now I feel bad..." Kari hunched her back as she gulped, letting the wind mess with her clothing and hair. "Dojo... I'm gonna get to the temple on my own... I'll meet you there, don't tell the others till you're back home." She then free fell when she knew no one would notice and flew in the opposite direction and landing on a rock with a sigh. She looked up and then laid in the field and took a nap, seeing the clouds go by.

----- at the temple -----

Omi looked around and pointed at each of his friends. "1...2...3..." Then pointed to himself. "4...! WHERE'S KARI?!!!" He called out as he jumped and flailed his arms up and down in a panicked motion. Clay looked around as well and saw that Kari was no where to be seen. Raimundo looked around in panic after hearing those words after setting Kimiko on the ground.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHERE'S KARI?!" Raimundo started to look around frantically as he looked for her desperately, Master Fung was gonna have him do chores for the next three months. Dojo then shrinked and looked to the panicking group.

"Umm, she didn't want me to say anything until I got back....But she kinda went off somewhere to be alone and she'll come back when she does." Dojo said rubbing the back of his neck until Raimundo grabbed him and put him to face level.

"DOJO!! ARE YOU SERIOUS?! THE HEYLIN SIDE COULD TRY AND TAKE HER AWAY AND YOU'RE OVER HERE LETTING HER GO OFF ON HER OWN!" Raimundo started shouting and breathed before continuing. "YEAH SHE'S STRONG TO HOLD HER OWN, BUT SHE'S SO INNOCENT AND VULNERABLE WHEN SHE ISN'T IN ANY OF HER ALTERNATIVE FORMS, MASTER FUNG IS GOING TO HAVE OUR HEADS BECAUSE YOU ACTUALLY LISTENED TO KARI!" Raimundo started to shake Dojo around mad now.

"I-I'm sorry R-raimundo, pl-please stop shaking me around like a maraca!" Dojo shouted starting to get dizzy. Kimiko giggled at Raimundo's actions.

"It's like you like Kari or something!" Kimiko laughed and Omi blinked.

"I like Kari too! She is most talented and very impressive with her abilities and when it comes to many other things." Omi smiled widely. Still holding Dojo in his clutches Raimundo turned his head to Omi with a murderous look in his eyes as he couldn't think properly and then kicked Omi in the head sending him flying into the sky. Omi yelped as he was sent flying.

"Raimundo what's gotten into you!?" Clay asked trying to calm down his best friend as he backed up as Raimundo snapped his scary gaze at Clay and walked over.

"What wrong with me?! I'm responsible for making sure Kari is safe from anything and anyone and I can't do that if there are people or DRAGONS letting her go off on her own without telling anyone about it and who's the one going to get in trouble for all of this?! I AM!!!" Raimundo yelled in Clay's face as Clay held onto his hat making sure it didn't fly off. Kimiko frowned and gulped.

"Wait a sec! She has my PDA still!!" She called. "Well, my back up, I let her keep it." Kimiko then took out her PDA and typed a few things and smirked. "Found her! ut it's weird, it's a little spotty, almost like there's a little interference." Kimiko then looked at Raimundo and gave him the PDA. "Here, you get her and we'll cover for you and Dojo." She smiled at him. Raimundo took the PDA as he let go of Dojo as he got bigger.

"Thanks Kimiko you're a great friend, I knew I could rely on you!" Raimundo jumped onto Dojo and they were off. In search of Kari.

----- With Kari -----

Kari sighed and sat up, looking around, still in stage one. She blinked and then began to practice using her abilities freely and with no restraint, summoning earth pillars and smashing them into pebls and setting some ablaze and much more. Once she had four pillars left  she made them into the corners of a square with flames at the top, lightning and water swirling the pillars, metal mixed in with the earth pillars and hovering slightly on a mat of pure air. Kari laid down and giggled, proud of herself being able to keep this together since it took a lot of focus to keep each element balanced.

Dojo was flying over the forest tree tops while following the PDA's signal to Kari.

"Please be alright Kari... Please." Raimundo said to himself praying as his chest was aching in pain at the thought of something bad happening. That was when Dojo spoke up.

"You know Raimundo, I think you're not only worried because Fung told you to look after Kari, But because deep down you really do care and like Kari." Raimundo listened to Dojo as he thought to himself. "Do I like Kari? Yeah she's cute, strong, and talented at fighting and at other stuff; however, even if I do like her and I accept these feelings Kari wouldn't feel the same...Ever since that day after I punched Clay she's treated me not that nicely. She's better off with someone like Clay who would treat her better." Raimundo thought to himself as his chest twisted on the inside with pain while thinking all of that. Kari sighed and closed her eyes, resting as she heard a whoosh from over head.

"Hnngh...?" She muttered and opened her eyes narrowly, she then closed her eyes once again, not seeing anything. Dojo started the go downwards as they were right over where the PDA located Kari. Raimundo held on as they were going down into the forest. They were on ground, Raimundo hopped off right away and looking around.

"There she is Raimundo!" Dojo said and pointed in the direction where Kari was while shrinking. Raimundo ran off leaving Dojo behind. "Hey wait up Raimundo!" Dojo quickly slithered as he could after the dragon on wind. Kari opened her eyes again and sat up, looking to see Raimundo and Dojo coming her way, Raimundo looking mad. Kari blinked, wondering he was so mad. Raimundo go up to Kari crossing his arms.

"You know, if you wanted to go somewhere on your own you could of just told us, you know how worried everyone was? How worried I was?!" Raimundo put his hands to his chest looking at her glad to see she's safe.

"... You, worried? About me? Hah! You're funny Raimundo, really funny." Kari clapped her hands and smiled while giggling, not believing him. "I thought you would hate me or something, and you probably do... Look, I... I'm going back to the temple now." Kari sighed and then the elements around her vanished and she warped back to the temple using her warp ability, leaving Raimundo and Dojo there. Raimundo was going to grab her to say something, but it was too late.

"Come on Raimundo, lets go back." Dojo said growing big again as Raimundo got on becoming silent. "Did she really think I hate her, that's stupid. I need to talk to her whatever the cost." He thought while he was quiet in pain the whole ride back.
