$$$ chapter 1 $$$

Christmas day was engulfing the xiaolin temple with joy, ecspecially with two certain xiaolin dragons-in-training.

Raimundo and Kimiko walked side-by-side, down one of the many corridors of the xiaolin temple, talking about Christmas and their plans.

"See what I'm gonna do, is find a huge tree, and bring it here so everyone could see." Raimundo thought aloud.

"Awsome, I can get some decorations, and maybe help you too." Kimiko said, blushing at those last few words.

"That would be great."

Everybody knew that Raimundo and Kimiko had a crush on each other, but decided not to make it obvious.

"Infact, Christmas may be a few days away, but why not start getting prepared now?" Raimundo wondered.

"Awsome, how about-"

Kimiko was cut off by the sound of an airplane, landing in the temple courtyard.

"Is that the circus- no, it can't be." Raimundo wondered. "If it was, then they'd have to have brought, them."

The airplane finally let out a few people, suprising Kimiko, she saw her best friend, Roxxana, appear from the plane.

The two girls embraced each other, as only best friends would.

"Kimiko, it's awsome to see you again!" Roxxana screeched girlishly.

"Just as great to see you!" Kimiko said, in a you're-the-best tone.

Kimiko and Roxxana eyed Raimundo, seeing him dumbstruck.

"Sorry Rai, this is my friend Roxxana." Kimiko smiled.

Raimundo held his hand out, until Roxxana smiled and shook his hand.

"Call me Roxy." Roxxana giggled.

Raimundo just smiled at Kimiko's friend.

KImiko then saw her father Toshiro Tohomiko, arrive from the plane.

"Konichiwa papa."

"Konichiwa Kimiko."

The father and daughter hugged the other lovingly.

"Raimundo, this is my dad, whom you've already met."

"Nice to see you again sir."

"Excellent to see the almighty xiaolin dragon of wind again."

"That's xiaolin dragon, in training."

"Ah yes."

To add even more to the two warriors' suprise, Raimundo's entire family appeared from the plane.

"Raimundo!" a thin brazillian woman said.

"Hey mom!" Raimundo said, acting as if he'd known she was coming.

Raimundo's mother embraced her son in a bone crushing hug, hat left Raimundo gasping for air.

"Sorry mijo." His mom apologised.

"It's okay, um mom?" Raimundo asked.

"Yes?"

"Did, 'they' come?"

"Yes."

"Yeah, I came too." A voice Raimundo would know anywhere.

"Adrian?"

A boy, Raimundo's height, stepped out of the plane, revealling his lightly tanned skin.

"The one and only." The boy just stepped past Raimundo. "I don't think I wanna be in the way of this."

"The way of what?"

Raimundo peered over to the plane, revealing his many brothers and sisters.

The 16 toddlers sprinted over to their older brother, picking him up off the ground, and carrying him all over the temple courtyard.

"Told ya Rai." Adrian laughed, eating one of his nachos he brought along.

Raimundo caught Kimiko and Roxxana giggling powerfully.

"Easy, take it easy, I've only been gone 2 years." Raimundo explained to his siblings. "Now, put big brother down..."

The 16 toddlers shrugged their shoulders at each other, and threw Raimundo onto the ground.

"Ouch."

Kimiko grabbed Raimundo's hand and lifted him off the ground, then started dusting him off.

"You okay?"

"Yeah I'm good."

Master Fung walked through the corridors, until he arrived before the warriors' and their families.
"Welcome friends and family, to the Xiaolin temple, here you will be treated as our honored guests."

"Master Fung, you knew about this?" Kimiko and Raimundo said in unison.
