I do not own Xiaolin Showdown, but how I wish I did!

This is my first XS fic, so be kind!

I do own my character Anna

Edit #1: I fixed my horrid spelling problem. Thanks The Qingfor pointing it out!

"My head hurts. It will be enjoyable to go back to the temple and relax for a while." Omi rubbed his head where it hurt, and there were cuts and bruises all over his body. Raimundo scooted up closer to him, making sure not to fall off Dojo, who was airborne.

"Hey man, that was some showdown!" he said, patting Omi on the back. "I didn't know Spicer had it in him." Omi sighed.

"Yes, and I wish that whatever Spicer has inside of himself would get lost…" Kimiko looked at Omi with concern.

"Don't get yourself so down Omi. You won the showdown." Omi didn't seem consoled by her remark. Kimiko sighed and looked at Rai, who was sitting in front of her. "He seems really out of it. I wonder if Jack did anything to him…" Rai turned his head and smiled.

"I doubt it. He just needs a good rest." Kimi nodded but remained silent for the rest of the way back to the temple.

"Omi, are you feeling better now that you have had some rest?" Omi turned to see Master Fung. He gave a large toothy grin, then pressed his hands together and bowed slightly.

"Yes Master Fung. I have recovered well from my wounds." He said with respect. Master Fung smiled and patted him on the back.

"Are you then up to train with Raimundo? He is in need of a sparing partner." Omi smiled but said nothing as he walked to the courtyard. There were very few other things that pleased him as defeating Raimundo in combat to show his superior abilities.

Raimundo was tossing the Eye of Dashi up and down when Omi came to the courtyard. Kimiko and Clay had already sparred with each other, and were now resting on the ground. Raimundo looked over to see Omi enter, a smug grin on the short monk's face.

"Feeling better Omi?" Rai asked. Omi nodded, but said nothing. Rai studied him over. "Master Fung asked you to spar with me, didn't he?" he asked after a few moments. Omi nodded once more and produced the Orb of Tornami.

"Are you ready Raimundo, for a humiliating defeat?" Raimundo just laughed as he tucked the Eye of Dashi away.

"I bet you can't beat me without any Shen-gan-wu!" he said with hint of sarcasm. Omi's eyes became slits as he returned the Orb of Tornami to his robe.

"You are making a mistake, but I accept your challenge! I shall crush you like the bug you are!" With that Omi launched himself at Rai, readying his leg for a strong kick. Raimundo jumped out of the way, grabbing one of Omi's wrists as he went past, and tossed him to the ground with a thud.

Omi rubbed his head, then brushed off his robe. "I see you have been improving Raimundo, but you still are no match for me!" He was about to launch another attack, but stopped, as something caught his eye.

Clay titled his head in confusion. "Hey Omi, why'd you stop? That fightin' you and Rai were doin' was startin' to get good."

"I was wondering who she was," was his reply as he pointed to the temple wall. Sitting there on top of the wall, legs crossed, was a girl around their age. Her green eyes watched them intently as they all began to look at her. The only movement she made was when she brushed a small piece of red hair from her eyes.

"Why did you young dragons stop?" Master Fung was now in the courtyard, his eyes mirroring his voice with confusion. Omi turned to his master with a stern look upon his face.

"A young girl is loitering on our temple wall! I shall go and make her leave!" He turned, and was about to confront the girl, but Master Fung's hand stopped him.

"That young girl is not trespassing Omi. She has been observing you and the other young dragons for quite some time now." The four looked at him oddly.

"Why has she been watchin' us Master Fung? And why haven't we seen her before?" Clay asked.

"Dojo ran into her when we were looking for the next generation of Xiaolin warriors. He said that we should keep her around, even though he could not sense a certain element within her. I have given her permission to observe, but since she is not technically a student, she cannot dwell here. I give her food every once in a while, and a few spare coins once a week so she can manage."

"But that didn't answer Clay's second question Master Fung. Why haven't we seen her before?" Kimiko prodded at her master.

"I believe I can answer that." Everyone turned to see that the girl was speaking. "I normally watch sitting in that tree over there. I couldn't see you guys sparring today though, so I got a different point of view."

"And who are you exactly, she who views but does not act?" asked Omi

"My name is Anna. Pleased to meet you" Anna smiled. Raimundo had not said anything during this time. He found the whole thing rather odd. After shaking out of his bewildered stupor, he climbed up the wall and sat down next to Anna.

"Hey, nice to meet you too!" He stuck out his hand, which she shook. "I'm Raimundo. The other three guys are Clay, Kimiko, and Omi." Anna smiled again and was about to open her mouth to say something when Dojo came rushing out of the temple.

"Another Shen-gong-wu has just revealed itself!" he said as he opened the scroll. He then saw Anna sitting on the wall. "Hey An! Haven't seen you for a while!" Anna waved and Dojo continued. "It's the Poison Barb. Who ever holds it can inject a lethal poison into his enemy."

"Is there a cure for this poison?" Rai asked as he hopped down from the wall. Dojo looked at him.

"Yeah, another Wu called the Cup of Lahoshi. I have no idea were it is though, so we have to try and not get hit by the Barb." The young dragons nodded as Dojo turned into his larger self. Raimundo looked back to Anna.

"Hey, maybe we can talk more after we get back!" he called to her as Dojo began to hover above the ground.

"I'd like that!" she called back, and waved as they flew out of sight.
