Well, as a Christmas gift, I've decide to update this early. Enjoy!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day was one of the best days the four Xaoilin Dragons had had in the longest time. They spent the whole day fooling around. Raimundo taught everyone how to play real Brazilian Soccer, and even a little Portugese. Kimiko introduced them to a new online video game, which Raimundo dominated at. Clay taught them all to spin a rope above their heads, then jump through it. Omi explained to everyone how to make a sculpture out of their own elements. They had a food fight at lunch; their punishment was to clean up the whole kitchen. They made a game out of that as well; the first one who dropped a piece of food had to do the dishes as well.

As one could have guessed, that didn't go off real well. Everyone ended up dropping something, resulting in everyone doing the dishes, which ended up as a soap fight when Raimundo accidently sprayed Kimiko with the hose. So then, when they were all done cleaning up the food and the soap, they lay, drenched, on the training grounds, cloud gazing. That's where Dojo found them.

"Guys, nap-time is over!" he said. "A new Shen Gong Wu just revealed itself!"

The four friends jumped up. Dojo grew and they hopped on him.

"What is it?" Kimiko asked.

"It's called the Lantern of Faith. It has the ability to allow you to have the determination and confidence of all of your friends in a battle. It gives a better chance at winning," Dojo explained.

"Where is it?" Omi asked.

"In the Cascade Mountains," Dojo said.

In the next fifteen minutes, they had reached the Cascade Mountains. As Dojo landed and everyone hopped off, they all began to climb the mountain in search for the newest Shen Gong Wu. It was while before Raimundo found it.

As everyone rushed up to him, Raimundo picked up the Lantern. It was very small, no bigger than the palm of his hand. It was a golden color and had many openings.

"That is by far the oddest Shen Gong Wu I have ever seen," Omi said.

"Whatever, let's just-"

"Not so fast," a voice said.

Everyone looked up and saw Jack Spicer float down with his back-pack spinner... thingy. (I don't know what it's called) Wuya was right behind him.

"Too, late, Jack Spicer," Omi said. "We have the Shen Gong Wu."

"I beg to differ," Jack said. "You can come out now."

Behind him, Josefina came running up the mountain. She stopped in front of the Xiaolim Warriors.

"But... how... what's she doing here?" Raimundo asked.

"I am not all that I appear to be," Joesfina said.

"You speak English?" Raimundo said, his mouth open, agape.

"Of course I speak English! Everyone knows English! You are so stupid!" Josefina said.

"So, do you work for Jack now?" Rai asked.

"No," she said. She muttered something, then ran at Raimundo. She went to grab the Wu, but Raimundo threw it up on the air. Kimiko caught it. As Josefina ran at her, she threw it to Clay. Soon, it became a giant "Pickle In The Middle" game. That is, until Raimundo dropped it. As soon as it hit the ground, Josefina ran at it. Raimundo dived for it. Both came up holding it.

"Problema, I challenge you to a Xiaolin Showdown," Josefina said.

"Fine," Raimundo said.

"Your Serpents Tail against my Adversity Mirror. First one to get the Lantern wins."

"Let's do this."

The laws of gravity didn't matter anymore. The ground rose up, much like it had before. Raimundo was on one side, Josefina on the other. Each held a different Shen Gong Wu. The Lantern of Faith was in the middle.

"Gong Yi Tan Pai!" both shouted.

Josefina made her move first. She sped at the Wu, only to be knocked backward as Raimundo kicked her in the stomach. Bent over double, she weezed, "Adversity Mirror." She turned the mirror toward Raimundo, who yelped. He dropped the Serpants Tail and stood shivering in his shoes. Josefina got her breath back and stood up. She angled the mirror so it was still shining at Raimundo. Then, the oddest thing happened. The mirror began to multiply, surrounding Raimundo with whatever horror he saw in in its depth. She made a break for the Wu.

"Come on, Raimundo!" his friends yelled encouragingly.

"What you see in that Mirror isn't real or is in the past!" Kimko yelled.

"She's right! Just igonore it!" Clay said.

Raimundo closed his eyes. He saw images flash across his mind. But then he saw something that shocked him. It wasn't what he had thought. And that image gave him the confidence that he needed.

Raimundo let out a yell. Josefina stoped in her tracks and looked back at him. A smile crept across her face. She abandoned the Shen Gong Wu, mistaking the yell for a scream of pain, and ran over to Raimundo.

"It hurts, doesn't it?" she asked. She was so busy gloating that she didn't see Raimundo use his wind powers to get the Serpants Tail. While she was laughing, he had formed a plan so simple, Josefina would never have thought it.

"Serpants Tail!" Raimundo yelled. He flew through the Adversity Mirror and at the Shen Gong Wu. Josefina was so surprised it took her a minute to react. But when she did, it was too late. Raimundo had already reached the Lantern and had grabbed it.

The Showdown was over. Winner: Raimundo.
