Chapter Nine: Frost Bite

In the middle of February: Arctic Ocean: Somewhere between Canada and Greenland in Baffin Bay

A cargo ship was sailing when it hit something!

Sailor #1: "What was that?!"

Several Sailors gathered around to see what's up. They hit a small iceberg.

Sailor #2: "That iceberg wasn't there before."

Sailor #1: "Don't look at me, I don't have all the answers."

Salior #3: "There's something inside!"

They all took a closer look. Half of the ice started to crack and fell into pieces. The sailors started to walk away from it. But then a large shadow loomed over them. They turned around and were shocked.

Salior #2: "Someone get the captain!"


Meanwhile: Two miles away on top of a glacier

Raimundo and Kimiko were up against Katnappe and Wuya in a Xiaolin Showdown. Both of them are after the Polar Paws. They also challenged a Shen Yi Bu Dare.

Xiaolin Warriors: Neptune Helmet and The Ring of Ray

Heylin Side: Orb of Tornami and Mask of Rio

((Neptune Helmet- A full-face helmet Shen Gong Wu (like the Helmet of Jong, Wushu Helmet, and Mask of Rio) which, when activated, will manipulate the air around the user to create a tiny hurricane. The created hurricane will move around with the helmet being inside the hurricane's eye. Mask of Rio- A mask Shen Gong Wu from the Wudai Warriors expansion. The Mask of Rio helps its user blend in with their surroundings by changing the color of the skin to become the color the mask senses around the user, much like how chameleons blend in. However, the Shen Gong Wu is a perfect match, allowing the user to blend in without technically becoming invisible. The Ring of Ray- It's power is to send out a huge light making the opponent to be blinded for some seconds. The Reversing Mirror, The Shard of Lightning and The Mantis Flip Coin or anything else that can dodge it will be negated.))

The Challenge: Steal the wu

Frozen pillars shot out of the ground and walls surrounded them. Clay, Omi, Dojo, Amber, and Aly were sitting on top of the wall watching the event.

Dojo: "This will be quick."

Amber: "How do you know Raimundo and Kimiko will win?"

Dojo: "Actually, I only said that because it looks like it's going to be short showdown."

Kimiko, Raimundo, Katnappe, Wuya: "GONG YI TEMPAI!"

They started dashing around.

Katnappe: "I still don't know why I should have the Orb of Tornami."

Wuya: "Because I've got dibs on the Mask of Rio first, not you. Now focus!"

Katnappe: "Fine. Orb of Tornami!"

A blast of water shot out of the mouth of the orb and it was aiming at Raimundo who was wearing the Neptune Helmet. He dodged it and called out his shen gong wu.

Rai: "Neptune Helmet!"

He created a tiny hurricane and used it to knock Kattanppe off her feet which made her lose the Orb of Tornami and Raimundo caught it.

Kimiko: "Nice move Rai!"

Wuya was hiding behind one of the pillars and places the Mask of Rio on her face.

Wuya: "Mask of Rio."

She blended in with the surroundings and used the advantage to sneak up on Kimiko. She grabbed her wrist and lifted her in the air.

Kimiko: "Wha?!"

Wuya: "This is too easy."

Kimiko: "For once you're right. Ring of Ray!"

A blast of light shot out of the ring and blinded Wuya. She covered her eyes and screamed on agony."

Wuya: "Ah! My eyes!"

Raimundo saw the opportunity and held the Orb of Tornami and carefully aimed at the target.

Rai: "Orb of Tornami!"

A giant blast of water hit Wuya. She fell after that attack and tried to get up.

Rai: "Shoku-wind!"

A gust of wind made her shiver and freeze. Wuya couldn't move a muscle. Kimiko walked up to her and grabbed the Mask of Rio. The Xiaolin Showdown was over and everything turned back to normal. ((Kimiko was wearing a long wool light and dark purple horizontal striped dress, black tights, royal purple boots, a purple belt with a silver heart shaped buckle, matching socks, scraf and hat.)) Katnappe and Wuya went their separate ways.

Rai: "They sure are mad at eachother."

Aly: "I guess that's why they meant by /giving the cold shoulder treatment/."

Omi: "Oh I get it, it's because we're in the artic! And they're mad at eachother! Hahahaha!"

Kimiko: "It was not that funny Omi."

Raimundo picked up the wu they've won.

Clay: "Need a hand partner?"

Rai: "No I got..."

Before he could finish his sentace, he slipped and the wu flew into the air! The Polar Paws landed near the edge.

Rai: "Okay, maybe I could use some help"

Omi: "Maybe?"

Rai: "Okay, okay. I do need help."

Raimundo grabbed the Neptune Helmet, Kimiko grabbed the Ring of Ray, Omi grabbed the Orb of Tornami, and Aly grabbed the Mask of Rio. Aly saw the Polar Paws and went to grabbed them. After she picked it up, Aly saw something in the distance. She gasped in horror.

Aly: "GUYS! Come over here quick!"

The others ran toward where Aly is standing.

Omi: "Aly, what's wrong?"

Aly: "Look!"

She said as she pointed at an unconscious man on a raft in the distance.

Dojo: "Whoa, what happened to him?"

Kimiko: "There must be a ship around here somewhere. Maybe I can pinpoint it's location with my GPS."

Kimiko pulled it out of her purse.

Omi: "You can do that Kimiko?"

Kimiko: "Yeah, all I need is a name or a logo."

Clay: "Well one of us has to jump into the water and fatch him."

Rai: "No way, not this time! Besides, it looks like two stories from up here!"

Amber looks around curiously.\n\nAmber: \"Has anyone seen Aly?"

Aly: "Out of the way!!!!"

The Young monks and the little dragons heard Aly's voice yelling behind them. They turned around and she was heading right for them. They got out of the way and when Aly was one foot away from the edge she leaped into the air and dove into the icy water.

The Young Monks: "ALY!"

Aly got to the surface of the water and swam toward the raft. Everyone was amazed by how fast she swam, especially Raimundo.

Clay: "Look at Aly go!"

Amber: "I've never seen her swim that fast!"

Omi: "She must've had intense swimming training."

Kimiko noticed Raimundo looking tensed.

Kimiko: "Hello? Earth to Raimundo."

Rai: "Huh? What?"

Kimiko: "Are you okay?"

Rai: "I'm fine, she almost got me worried that's all."

Dojo: "I wonder why she didn't use the Polar Paws?"

Rai: "What do you mean?"

Amber pulled out the Ancient Scroll of the Shen Gong Wu and held it for Dojo to read from.

Dojo: "Here it is. The Polar Paws is a white glove Shen Gong Wu that turns its user into a polar bear that has the ability to withstand extremely cold temperatures."

Clay: "Oh no! Aly is going to be a Xiaolin-scile!"

Omi: "We've got to do something!"

Aly made it to the raft to check the guy's health.

Aly: "Guys! Come quick!"

Dojo jumped into the air and transformed into a Viking boat. He landed on the water.

Dojo: "Hop on everyone!"

They jumped into the boat and sailed toward Aly and the inconscious man. The young monks helped them get on the boat. Clay and Kimiko wrapped them both with dry blankets.

Rai: "What is wrong with you girl?! Why did you just dive in the water without thinking?!"

Aly: "I was trained to withstand the cold and hot temperatures. Looks like it paid off."

Rai: "I know but..."

Aly: "I'm a tough chick Raimuindo, get used to it."

Kimiko: "You go girl."

She discovered a logo on the man's hat. It was a picture of a white seal in a blue circle.

Kimiko: "Hey! I recognize that logo anywhere! It's the Luna Seal!"

She scanned it and looked up on some information on the logo and found it. A picture of a ship and an article next to it.

Kimiko: "It's a crago ship, but not an ordinary cargo ship, it's protected by highly trained soldiers who dress up like sailors. To the public, they're just your local navy seals, rescuing people and stuff, but rumored has it, they're actually curiors who secretly gaurd valueable antiques, jewerly, and bunch of other stuff until they reach their destination."

Aly: "Sounds like something out of James Bond."

Her GPS beeped which meant it found the location.

Kimko: "It's two miles north from here."

Dojo: "What about this guy?"

Kimiko: "I'll try to find a local ranger station in this area and send in the quardinates when we get there."

Dojo: "Okay, next stop...a...cargo ship!"

Raimundo pulled out a sword from the Black Hole Bag and held it at the back of the boat.

Rai: "Sword of the Storm!"

They sailied toward the location of the cargo ship. When the young monks arrived, they found it half sunk and in pieces. They gasped in shock.

Kimiko: "I wonder what caused this?"

Clay: "Whatever it was, it must be far away by now."

Omi: "I hope you are right."

Rai: "Let's search the grounds for any survivors. Aly, Dojo, Amber, you three keep an eye on sailorboy."

Dojo: "Aye aye Captain."

The young monks spilt up to see if anyone else is around or find some clues as to what happened; Kimiko is in the control room, Clay is at the port bow, and Omi and Raimundo are searching through the hallway. Meanwhile outside of the wrecked ship. Aly, Amber, and Dojo were watching over the sailor, making sure he doesn't freeze to death. Suddenly something caught Aly's eye.

Amber: "What's up Aly?"

Aly: "I thought I saw something, I'll be right back."

Dojo: "But Raimundo said to stay here."

Aly: "I won't be long."

She hopped off the boat and walked toward the big hole on the side of the ship and went inside.

Aly: "Whoa, someone or something definately did a number on this place."

She sees a circular box on the otherside and her curiousity grew. Aly carefully made her way to the box and picked it up.

Aly: "I wonder what this is?"

While she was pondering, something crept into the ship and was rumaging through the inventory. Aly opened the box, and saw a small purple book with a golden Diamond shape on the cover and a lock. What is this? A diary? No, it can't be, it's way to old to be a diary. She thought. Aly looked through a few pages. Oh my...this is incredible! But then she heard something coming coming up right behind her.

Aly: "Huh?"


Meanwhile outside the ship

The young monks rundevue at the boat.

Rai: "Found anything?"

Omi: "Nope."

Clay: "Afraid not."

Kimiko: "Same here, I didn't see anyone. But I did find some strange claw marks."

Clay: "Wait, where's Aly?"

Omi: "Wasn't she supposed to stand watch?"

Dojo: "Ahem...umm...Aly said she saw something inside the ship and went over there to investigate."

Rai: "How long has she been gone?"

Amber: "Eight minutes?"

The man woke up stirring.

Omi: "Look! He's awake!"

Clay: "Are you okay partner?"

Sailor #2: "What? No! We've got to get out of here!"

He yelled and he got off the boat freaking out.

Kimiko: "Why?"

Then they heard a scream.

"AAAAAaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Sailor #2: "That's why!"

Amber: "THAT'S ALY!"

Dojo turned back to normal and they ran where Aly\'s scream came from.

Sailor #2: "Stop! It will get you!"

They found Aly outside on the other side of the ship, being attacked by a large fish-like monster.

Omi: "It can't be!"

Aly dodged as the monster tried to use one of it\'s claws to rip her apart. Clay used his lasso and tossed it to catch Aly. She got tied up and was pulled toward her friends.

Aly: "Thank god you're here, that monster came out of nowhere and tried to attack me!"

Kimiko: "That's no monster, that's Dyris!"

Aly: "Who?"

Rai: "No time to explain, we've got to put that fish on ice...again."

The young monks were ready of battle stations.

The Young Monks: "DRAGON UNITED FORMATION!"

They ran toward Dyris and attacked.

Kimiko: "WUDAI MARS FIRE!"

Omi: "WUDAI NEPTUNE WATER!"

Clay: "WUDAI CRATER-EARTH!"

Rai: "SHOKU-WIND!"

Dyris stummbled around after getting hit by their attacks.

Aly: "SPIRIT FIST-LIGHT!"

Her fist glowed a bright silver. She threw an air punch and a beam of light shaped like a fist hit Dyris and she slammed into the ice wall.

Amber: "Nice move Aly!"

Omi: "Oh yes, your hard training was worth it."

Suddenly, Dyris jumped into the water.

Dojo: "Hey! She escaped!"

Rai: "If she's here, then Klofang must be near by."

Aly: "Okay, could somebody explain what is going on?"

Omi: "Well...you see Aly...uh..."

Kimiko: "I'll tell her. About a year ago, when we used to be Dragon Apprentices like you, we had a Xiaolin Showdown around here. We were after the Gills of Hamachi."

Aly: "Ew."

Kimiko: "I know, that name grosses me out too. Anyway, Omi won the showdown and accidently freed two people; Klofang and Dyris. The first time we met them we thought Dyris was an innocent Mermiad and Klofang was the badguy, but it was the other way around."

Aly: "Wait a minite, that monster was a mermaid?!"

"Aye, and an evil one too."

Aly: "Who said that?!"

"I did lass."

A big strong man wearing strange fur-like clothing, with long black hair and beard, carrying a spear appeared out of nowhere.

Amber: "Eeep!"

Omi: "Klofang!"

Klofang: "Aye it's good to see you again boy."

Dojo: "Just to clarify, we didn't free Dyris!"

Klofang: "I know, that ship did."

Clay: "But how?"

Kimiko: "I'm guessing the iceberg you two were in somehow surfaced."

Klofang: "Aye, and once again we must stop her..."

Rai: "Before she floods the Earth right?"

Klofang looked at Aly.

Klofang: "Who be this?"

Aly: "It be Aly Tanner, sir."

Amber: "And I'm Amber."

Aly: "And I think she's after this book."

She pulled out the small book she found in the ship, but Dyris attacked again. She shrieked loudly.

Aly: "Sheesh, not much of a kareoke singer on that one, I bet she couldn't carry a tuna in a bucket."

Rai: "Looks like she's ready for round two!"

Dyris raised her claw and was about to cruch them. They backed away, but Omi slipped onto the ice and couldn't move as her claw aimed at him.

Omi: "Ahhhhhh!"

Aly: "OMI!"

Aly ran and knocked Omi out of the away. When Omi regained consciousness, he was stunned.

Omi: "No!"

Kimiko: "Aly!"

She got crushed by Dyris, Aly was alive but she was injured. Raimundo got really angry.

Rai: "That's it. CREST OF THE CONDOR-BLADE OF THE NEBULA-WIND!"

The blue streak hit Dyris causing her to slam into the wall again, and the avalanche buried her. Everyone gathered around Aly.

Dojo: "Aly, speak to us!"

Amber: "Please you've got to wake up!"

Aly stirred and woke up.

Clay: "You almost scared us partner."

Aly: "S..s..sorry."

Omi: "Aly are you okay?"

Aly: "I can't move my leg."

Kimiko: "Oh no!"

Klofang: "It looks bad."

Rai: "Where's the coast gaurd?!"

Dojo: "I don't see one, but will a helicopter due?"

They all turned around and see a helicopter hovering over them. A man with a megaphone spoke, he has dark skin and spikey black hair.

Coastguard: "Is everyone alright?"

Omi: "Please help us! We've got an injured person!"

Coastguard: "Don't worry, there's a hospital in Bylof. We'll take you there."

The helicopter picked them up and took them to the hospital.

Kimiko: "What happened to the Sailor?"

Coastgaurd: "We found him freaking out saying he saw a monster, but he'll be fine."

A few hours later. The young monks were in the Waiting Room hoping Aly is okay. Klofang quietly sits on the couch observing the new surroundings.

Klofang: "So this be the place for the sick and injured?"

Omi: "Yep."

Klofang: \"I wish we had something like this back then."

A woman dark tanned skin, curly short black hair, and wearing a doctor's uniform entered the room.

"Hello, I'm Doctor Selene Macross, are you friends of Ms. Aly Tanner?"

They nodded yes.

Clay: "Pardon me Doctor Macross, how is Aly?"

"We checked the x-rays. Everything is okay except for her right leg. It's not serious, but I suggest she should rest for a week or two, three tops. So it's okay to take her home."

Everyone sighed in relief.

Rai: "Can we see her?"

"She's right here."

The doctor stepped aside. Aly was in a wheelchair, wearing a case on her right leg.

Aly: "Hey guys."

Everyone rushed to her side.

"I better get going, I got a patient who needs his appendix removed."

Doctoer Selene Macross left.

Kimiko: "Aly! Thank goodness you're okay!"

Aly noticed Omi weeping.

Aly: "What's wrong Omi?"

Omi: "Wahhhh! I'm so sorry! It's my fault your injured!"

He hugged Aly.

Aly: "Relax Omi, I'll be fine. You heard the doctor, I just a little rest."

Dojo: "Then let's get out of here. Hospitals give me the creeps."

Everyone went outside and Raimundo pulled out a manta ray shaped Shen Gong wu and called out it's name.

Rai: "Silver Manta Ray!"

He threw it into the air. The little manta ray became a large flying aircraft. The young monks helped Aly get settled inside and they flew back to the Xiaolin Temple.


Xiaolin Temple (Snow covered)

Master Fung: "Nice to see you again Klofang."

Klofang: "Likewise I'm sure."

Master Fung: "Now that Dyris is free once more we could all the help we need."

The young monks were in the middle of training while Aly Tanner sits on the wheelchair alone reading a book. Master Fung walked over to her.

Master Fung: "I am sorry about the incident tat has fallen upon you."

Aly: "I know, I'll fall behind!"

Master Fung: "Remember Aly, when there's weakness, lies strength. In the meantime, just rest and soon you\'re leg will heal sooner than you think."

Master Fung walks away. Aly sighed and the young monks came up to her.

Kimiko: "Hey Aly, how are you doing?"

Aly: "I'm okay, just catching up on my reading."

Rai: "What's it called?"

Aly: "/Les Miserables/."

Omi: "Sounds fancy."

Clay: "Ain't that a college book?"

Aly: "Yep."

Clay: "We're about to head back inside, you want us to help you wheel?"

Aly: "No thanks."

She became meloncholy.

Omi: "You're sure?"

Aly: "Uh huh."

They all went inside except Kimiko.

Kimiko: "Aly, I know that broken leg is keeping you from training and stuff, but there's no reason for you to turn down help."

Aly: "I'm not sad about that, it's something else."

Kimiko: "And that something is?"

Aly: "Valentine's Day."

Kimiko: "Is that all?"

Aly: "You just don't understand."

Kimiko: "Come one you can tell me and this time, I won't tell the others."

Aly: "Okay, see...every Valentine's Day...I..."

Kimiko: "What?"

Aly: "I never got a Valentine."

Kimiko: "WHAT?!"

Aly: "Well, I do get some from my friends and family, but I never got one from a guy."

Kimiko: "Really? Why?"

Aly: "Because...I don't have luck with guys, they always like the pretty girl with a snobby attitude type."

Kimiko: "Yuck, I hate that type."

Aly: "Anyway, long story short, I live in a Never Happy Ending Cinderella life."

Kimiko: "Don\'t say that, you're a nice cool person, there's no way a guy can turn you down."

Aly: "I know, it's just, I wish a guy would treat me romantically, but I guess I'll be alone for the rest of my life."

Kimiko: "Look, I'm going to prove to you there's nothing wrong with you and it's all in your head. And to do that, we're going to give you a test."

Aly: "We?"

Kimiko: "Comon, I'll explain on the way."

Kimiko wheels Aly to her room. But then Aly sees mysterious figure stands on the roof. She shakes her head and looks again. The figure disappeard.

Kimiko: "Something wrong?"

Aly: "No, but I thought I saw someone on the roof."

Kimiko: "The roof?"

She tries to see what Aly saw but nobody was there.

Kimiko: "I don't see anyone."

Aly: "Must be my imagination."

They both went inside and the figure hid within the shadows.


In Kimiko's Room

Kimiko turned on her compter and logged on to her Instant Message. A view screen popped up and showed a japanese girl with brown hair and brown eyes.

Kimiko: "Aly, this is my friend Keiko, invisa versa."

Keiko: "Konnichiwa Aly-chan!"

Aly: "Konnichiwa Keiko."

Kimiko: "Hey Keiko, could you send me that link to that Luck with Guys test from the Tokyo Cupid website?"

Keiko: "Sure, but why?"

Kimiko: "I want to prove to Aly there's nothing wrong with her."

Keiko: "Okie dokie!"

She started typing and then an envelope appeared on the screen signaling Kimiko she has an e-mail.

Kimiko: "Arigato Keiko."

Keiko: "No prob, I better get going, I promised Mrs. Kazahara I would babysit. Sayonara."

Kimiko & Aly: "Sayonara."

She logged out. Kimiko opened her e-mail and clicked on the link. It showed a bunch of questions.

Kimiko: "Ready?"

Aly: "I guess so, I've got nothing else better to do since my leg is broken."

Kimiko: "Okay, question one: If you have a crush one someone, would you: a) /Send a flirt e-mail/, b) /Approach my cursh and tell him how I feel, c) //Just watch him from the distance/, or d /other/."

Aly: "Well, if I had a crush on someone, which I don't, I start with being friends with him and see if our relationship goes well."

Kimiko: "Pretty good answer, I'll just put /other/. Okay next question..."


In the Meditation Hall

Clay, Omi, and Raimundo were in the middle of meditating.

Omi: "I sensed alot of dispair from Aly."

Clay: "She's just a little upset about her broken leg Omi."

Omi: "No, I don't think that's it."

Rai: "I wish there's a way we could help her."

"Hello?"

The guys turned around and see a young girl with red hair, bluish green eyes, wearing a in a pink snowsuit and matching boots, and an oval shaped Emerald pendant, standing in the doorway.

Omi: "Who are you?"


Later that evening

Aly and Kimiko were in the dining room having dinner; Kimiko was having Orange Chicken with rice, and Aly was having Sweet and Sour noodles with salad on the side. Kimiko's laptop beeped.

Kimiko: "Sounds like the results have arrived."

Aly: "I can't believe it takes thrity minutes to process."

Kimiko takes a look.

Kimiko: "It says here: You're score is 85%, it means your luck with guys is good. Your a strong, inpendant girl. You have a good eye for men, and yet you hold yourself back. It's okay to be shy sometimes, but not all the time. Try to communciate more and be more open. Come out of your shell See? Nothing to worry about."

Aly: "Wow. I thought I would get 50%."

Kimiko: "Like I said before, there's nothing wrong with you."

Aly: "Oh! I just remembered, I got to take a look at that book!"

Kimiko: "You mean the one you found at that ship?"

Aly: "Uh huh."

She grabbed her jack and looked through her inside pockets.

Aly: "Where is it? Oh no!"

Kimiko: "What?"

Aly: "It's not in here! Where could it be?"

Clay, Omi, and Raimundo entered the room.

Aly: "Hey guys, have you seen a small book around?"

Omi: "No, but we found someone."

Kimiko: "Who?"

Clay: "Come on in Diana Iris."

Aly and Kimiko: "Diana Iris?"

The girl came in.

Diana Iris: "Hi, it's s nice to meet you two."

Kimiko: "Hi, my name is Kimiko Tohomiko and this is my friend Aly Tanner."

Diana Iris: "Oh dear, what happened to your leg?!"

Aly: "It's a long story. So what brings you here."

Diana Iris: "I came here to be a Dragon Warrior of course."

Kimiko: "Really? Cool. So where are you from?"

Diana Iris: "Oh here and there."

Dojo shows up and he's got dry scales on his face.

Dojo: "Listen up boys and girls, a new Shen Gong Wu has activated itself and...who's this?"

Diana Iris: "I'm Diana Iris, and you must be Dojo."

Dojo: "Have we met before?"

Diana Iris: "I just have a common face."

Dojo: "Hmmmm. Anyway we better hurry."

Aly: "I'm coming too."

Rai: "Um Aly? Incase you forgot, your leg is broken."

Aly: "But..."

Diana Iris: "He's right you know. Can I come along?"

Clay: "Sure, you can help us find the wu."

Kimiko: "See ya later Al."

Everyone left except Diana.

Aly: "Aren't you going with them?"

Diana Iris: "I will, I'm just showing pity to a weak injured animal."

Aly: "What animal?"

Diana Iris: "That would be you toots, you should be more careful before you get your butt kicked by a monster."

Aly: "Wait! How did you..."

She walked away with a smirk on her face. What\'s her problem? Aly thought.


A few hours later

Aly was trying to do some sit-ups without straining her cast covered leg.

Amber: "Aly? Shouldn't you be resting?"

Aly: "Yeah, but I need to do a little excerise so I don't have to worry about falling behind."

Amber: "But Aly..."

Master Fung caught her.

Master Fung: "Ms. Tanner, I believe I told you to relax."

Amber: "Oooo, busted."

Aly: "Sorry Master Fung, I was bored."

She stopped doing push ups and got herself back on the wheelchair. The four young monks returned with disappointed looks on their faces.

Aly: "Hey guys."

Clay: "Hey Al."

Aly: "What's wrong?"

Omi: "We have some good news and some bad news."

Dojo: "The good news is the activated Shen Gong Wu was the Unicorn's Horn. It can heal cuts and wounds."

Aly: "Great!"

Rai: "Wait a minute, there is some bad news."

Aly: "You lost it in a showdown?"

Rai: "I wish."

Kimiko: "Someone already took it."

Aly: "Who took it?"

Clay: "That's the weird part, no one was there when we arrived."

Omi: "The place was completely dessert."

Dojo: "/Deserted/."

Omi: "That too."

Aly: "Awww man. Hey! Where's Diana?"

Omi: "She was behind us a minute ago."

Clay: "We better look for her."

Everyone left except Raimundo. He looked at Aly as she sighed.

Rai: "Is everything alright?"

Aly: "No...I mean yes..."

Rai: "Aly."

Aly: "Before you guys left to get that Shen Gong Wu, Diana...she..."

Rai: "What did she do?"

Aly: "She said she was /showing pity at a weak injured animal/. I guess she was talking about me."

Rai: "WHAT? SHE DID?!"

Aly: "She's right about one thing, I am weak."

Rai: "Aly wait."

Aly was about to roll out of the Meditation Hall entrance but the others showed up with Diana Iris.

Omi: "Found her."

Diana Iris: "Sorry about that, I got lost."

Aly didn't say a word and just rolled out of there.

Amber: "Aly?"

Amber followed Aly.

Omi: "What's wrong with Aly?"

Diana Iris: "I'm not sure."

She said innocently, but Raimundo knew Diana was lying.


Around 2:00 am in the morning

Everyone was deep asleep except Aly. She's been up since midnight. She reminces the training sessions she had with her father; when she felt her confidence and her strength rising, but lately Aly feels as though she lost them. She covers her head with the blanket and makes quiet sobs. Aly hears someone stepping inside her room and tapped on her shoulder. She was to weeping to see who it was, but she heard a familiar voice.

"Meet me at the training field in 10."

She heard the footsteps walking out of her room. As soon it was quiet again, Aly stood up and was able to change into her blue jersy, grey pants, and one of her sneakers because she couldn't change into her monk training clothes. Aly climbed up to her chair and rolled out of her room. She finally made it to the training field, but no one was there.

Aly: "Hello? Is anyone there?"

She heard someone coming up from behind her. Aly turned her head quickly and sees a figure in the shadows.

Aly: "Who's there?! Show yourself!"

The figure walked out of the shadows, and it was Raimundo.

Aly: "Raimundo?"

Rai: "Let's get started."

Aly: "On what?"

Rai: "Your test."

Aly: "A TEST?!"

Rai: "Shhh! Do you want to wake the dead? Come on, follow me."

She follwed Raimundo to the long thick wooden pole.

Aly: "Since when do you give out tests?"

Rai: "As the Shoku Leader, I get to decide what challenge the monks should face. Plus, I asked Master Fung for permission."

Aly: "Okay, answer me this, what's the pole for?"

Rai: "This."

Raimundo held a bow and arrow up. He shot the arrow and it hit the top of the pole.

Rai: "You must climb up to the top to get that arrow. To get there is the challenge, only you can solve it."

Aly: "I can't, you know I have a broken leg."

Rai: "So what?! That doesn't stop you from doing push ups."

Aly: "Fine, whatever."

She wheeled up to the pole and tried to climb up with both arms and one leg, but she kept falling off. An hour has passed and Aly still couldn't get to the top.

Aly: "Argh! I can't do it!"

Rai: "You know what, you're right. You might as well give up and be a weakling for the rest of your life."

He walked away, leaving Aly alone. She pounded the ground with her hands and starts to weep. She looked up and finds two coin-like weights with red straps tied to them. Aly crawled to get them and crawled back to the pole. She held one weight in each hand, threw her arms arounf the pole, and the weights tied together. Aly used the lumber jack climbing stragety to get to the top, except she had to use her good leg. She used all of her strength to get there. Her beated faster, sweat was pouring from her face, as the sun started to rise slowly. Aly made it to the top and grabbed the arrow!

Aly: "I did it! I did it!"

She said as she held the arrow over her head in victory. She suddenly hears people clapping. Aly looked down and sees Amber, Clay, Dojo, Kimiko, Klofang, Master Fung, Omi, and Raimundo.

Master Fung: "Well done Aly."

Klofang: "Aye, you have the will of the warrior."

Rai: "Told you she could do it."

Aly climbed all the way back to the bottom and landed safetly on the wheelchair.

Aly: "Wait, so...you didn't really mean those things?"

Rai: "I only did it to motivate you."

Aly: "That was so cruel and hurtful...but I'm glad you did."

Kimiko: "You rock Aly, but I can't believe Diana was so mean to you."

Clay: "Yeah, who put a bee in her bonnet?"

Amber: "Hey, where is Diana?"

Omi: "Did she get lost again?"

Dojo: "I knew that girl was a bit bubbly."

Master Fung: "Diana?"

Kimiko: "Diana Iris, she arrived here last night."

Master Fung: "I never met a girl named Diana here."

Klofang: "I saw her, but there was something not right about that lass."

Amber: "She's too fishy if you ask me."

Aly: "Wait a minute, Diana...Iris...Gasps...Oh no! The vault!"

Clay: "What about it?"

Aly: "Trust me, go check it out. I'll meet you there later!"

Aly wheeled back inside and the others ran to the vault and checked to see if anything was taken. Dojo went down there to take a look.

Dojo: "Looks like she only took the Tunnel Armadillo, Golden Tiger Claws, Fist of Tegigong, Ring of the Nine Dragons, the Gills of Hamachi, and the Moby Morpher."

Clay: "This seems pretty familir."

Klofang: "Aye, too familiar."

Kimiko: "Who ever did this was clever, almost too clever."

Aly: "Diana did it."

She said as Aly wheeled inside, holding the book she found on the ship.

Amber: "What?"

Omi: "Are you sure? Why would Diana take the wu?"

Aly: "That girl was not Diana, it was Dyris!"

Klofang: "Argh! I knew there was something strange about her!"

Kimiko: "But we saw her escaping, and there's no way she could've gone on land."

Rai: "Yeah, she would stick out like a sore thumb."

Clay: "Do you have any proof?"

Aly: "I wasn't sure at first, but there were some clues; I started to get suspcions began when she said /'you should be more careful before you get your butt kicked by a monster'/."

Omi: "But none of us told her how you got your leg broken. How could she have known?"

Aly: "Exactly, and I really did't think it was a coincidence that she arrived after Dyris left?"

Clay: "Now that you mention it, it was strange."

Amber: "She definately never mentioned anything about her family, friends, or where she came from."

Aly: "My final clue was her name. Hello! Don't you think it's obvious?"

Rai: "Diana Iris..."

When he finally realized it, Raimundo smacked his forehand with his hand.

Rai: "DYRIS! Aw man! It was right in front of us this whole time!"

Klofang: "Good thinking lass."

Master Fung: "Indeed, your deduction skills are quite sharp."

Dojo: "But there's one more thing I don't understand, how is it possible that she could travel out of the water without turning into a monster?"

Aly: "I think the answer is in this book. But there are a few pages missing."

She opened it.

Aly: "It looked like someone carefully ripped them out."

Rai: "Whatever was in that book, must be dangerous."

Aly: "And my woman's intuition tells me she could've gotten far."

Rai: "Okay, everone spilt up! Dojo and Amber gaurd the wu vault, Master Fung tell the other monks to be on guard and don't let Dyris out, Klofang take the south part of the temple, Kimiko and Omi take the north part, Clay and Aly take the east, and I'll take the west. If anyone sees her, use your element ar anything else to signal the others."

Everyone splited up to find Dyris. The air was cold, crisp, and filled with suspense. Raimundo was all alone as he searched throughout the westside of the temple. A shadow loomed over him. He turned around, and was shocked. Raimundo screams were so load, it can be heard from China.

Rai: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Meanwhile around the sametime, everyone re-grouped at the vault.

Klofang: "Anyone found her?"

Everyone shook their heads for no. Then they heard Raimundo screaming all the way from the westside.

Omi: "I'm guessing Raimundo found her."

Kimiko: "Come on!"

They ran for the westside of the temple and found it deserted.

Clay: "Where is everybody?"

Amber: "I'm more worried about what happened to Rai, he sounded like he was being attacked."

Aly sees Raimundo standing behind them. He has so many scratches on his face.

Aly: "There you are Rai, we've been worried about you."

Raimundo didn't say a word.

Dojo: "Hey kid, are you okay?"

He pulled out the Blade of the Nebula.

Kimiko: "Raimundo?"

Klofang: "Stand your ground!"

Omi: "Why?"

Raimundo charged at them, but everyone was able to get out of the way before the blade got them.

Clay: "What in tarnation?!"

Kimiko: "What's wrong with you Raimundo?"

"Oh, wouldn't you like to know?"

Dyris appeared out of the shadows.

Omi: "Dyris! Whatever you have done to..."

Aly: "LET RAIMUNDO GO! NOW!"

Dyris: "Hmmm, how about...after I rule the world."

Kimiko: "You SEAWITCH!"

Aly: "More like a siren."

Dyris: "Raimundo, get rid of them, but start with that girl on the wheelchair."

Raimundo nodded and charged at Aly. She dodged his attacks.

Aly: "Raimundo! Stop! It's me! Aly! Aly Tanner? I'm your friend! We're your friends!"

He held his sword in the air and froze. Please, try to remember. She thought. When Aly took a good look at him, there was nothing in his eyes.

Dyris: "Raimundo! I commmand you to finish her!"

Omi: "No!"

Omi jumped into the air.

Omi: "Mantis Kick!"

He dropped kick Raimundo and he fell flat. The others protected Aly and Dyris got angry.

Dyris: "Oh forget this!"

She held both arms up. Dyris was wearing black and ruby gauntlets called the Moby Morpher.

Dojo: "That would explain the new identity."

Dyris: "MOBY MORPHER!"

She transformed into a gaint bat! Everyone screamed. Dyris grabbed Raimundo with her claws and flew away. They becamed devastated.

Amber: "We have a problem!"

Master Fung: "This is disturbing, she must've used a spell or something."

Clay: "But how?"

Aly: "I believe the answer is in this book."

Aly flipped through the pages and found a picture of an Emerald Pendant.

Kimiko: "Hey...isn't that the pendant Dyris is wearing."

Klofang: "That's the /Siren's Eye/. It was created by dark magic, it can enhance a person's power ten fold."

Dojo: "But she didn't have the Moby Morphers on when she arrived at the temple. How could she be able travel on land?"

Amber sees a few pieces of paper lying on the ground. She slithered over to pick them up, but when Amber looked at them, she became suprised.

Amber: "Hey! I found something!"

She slithered back to Aly and gave them to her. She examined them.

Aly: "NO WAY! These are the missing pages from the book! Dyris, must've ripped them out from when we first fought."

Kimiko: "Well, what do they say?"

Aly: "I'm reading as fast as I can. Oh no!"

Omi: "What?"

Aly: "It says here that every ten years, the siren shall walk the earth for two days until she could find pure hearted soul on the day of Aphrodite before midnight."

Omi: "Why would Dyris need Raimundo?"

Klofang: "It's worse than I fear. She's going to feed off his energy. If a siren is able to find one, she would become more powerful and become ruler of both land and sea."

Omi: "I understand that part, but what about that Aphordite thing?"

Clay: "Valentine's Day! It's today!"

Amber: "But why Valentine's Day?"

Dojo: "Who knows."

Master Fung: "Klofang, what would happen to Raimundo?"

Klofang: "Let's say he'll be on a deep sleep."

Omi: "For how long?"

Everyone became silent.

Omi: "Oh...Oh no! You mean..."

Klofang: "Aye lad."

Kimiko: "We have to go and save him!"

Aly: "Correction, you guys go and save him."

Kimiko: "But Aly..."

Aly: "In case you forgot, I have a broken leg!"

Master Fung: "That didn't stop you from getting to the top of that pole. Raimundo always knew you were strong."

"Yo! Aly!"

Aly: "Raimundo?"

Clay: "Where? I don't see him."

"Down here."

Everyone looked down to see Rai-bot holding the Unicorn's Horn.

Klofang: "What be this?"

Kimiko: "It's Rai-bot."

Clay: "Where did you get the Unicorn's Horn?"

Rai-bot: "Raimundo snatched it from Dyris when she wasn't looking and gave it to me. But that's not all."

He handed it to Aly. She held up the Unicorn's Horn to her face.

Omi: "Aly?"

Aly: "Okay, who's up for siren sushi?"


Antarctica

Klofang and the monks arrived near /Ross Ice Shelf/.

Kimiko: "What's with the sirens and ice?"

Omi: "What are we waiting for Klofang?"

Klofang: "Some friends of mine."

Omi: "Friends?"

Clay: "Good we could definately use some back up."

Klofang: "Aye, here they come."

They see two figures in the distance; one man and the other was a woman. But both of them were Mer-people.

Aly: "Whoa! What are they?"

Klofang: "They are Atlantians."

Kimiko: "Weird."

Clay: "Wait a minute, I know you. You're Dr. Selene Macross! And you're the coastgaurd!"

Klofang: "Ah Selene and Marco, good to see ye again."

Selene: "It's good to see you too Klofang, it has been many years."

Marco: "Where have you been?"

Dojo: "Wait a minute! You're Atlantians? But you look like Mer-people and why or how can you stay on land this long?"

Selene: "Marco and I are in /Altantis Land and Sea Connection/, our duty is to help both humans and sea creatures from natural disasters, or prevent them from being ill."

Macross: "We also fight against evil part time. And yes, we were called Mer-people along time ago, but one day, a soothsayer appeared out of nowhere, and told us we would one day walk on land."

Selene: "Everyone was pleased by the new transformation, we were finally going to see what being on land is like. All except one."

Omi: "Dyris."

Selene: "That's right. Dyris didn't want to join us, so she teamed up with the Kelpies, evil sea monsters whom can drain the energies of humans and other creatures. All they did was lure men with their beauty and singing, giving us a bad name. We managed to banish the kelpies, but we weren't able stop Dyris."

Marco: "That's why we asked Klofang to get rid of her. When we haven't heard a word from him or Dyris, the elders decided to send me and my sister to go and look for him. We\'ve been undercover for a long time."

Klofang: "Don't worry my boy, we'll stop her once and for all."

Amber: "But why do you call yourself Atlantians?"

Marco: "Well, Dyris has dragged the Mer-person title through the mud, so we called ourselves Atlantians, named after the sunkin city."

Aly: "Ummm, I don't mean to be rude and all, but hello! World at stake? Friend in danger major?"

Klofang: "She's right."

Clay pulled out the /Silver Manta Ray/. It went travel mode and everyone hopped on. They dove into the cold icey water to search for Dyris's hideout. Aly frantically searches for any signs of Dyris or Raimundo.

Kimiko: "Don't worry Aly, we'll find them."

Amber: "There they are! Oh wait nevermind it's just a couple of big fishes."

Dojo: "Amber, it is them!"

Amber: "Really?"

Omi: "Clay! Stomp on it!"

Clay: "That's step on it."

Omi: "Whatever!"

Clay pressed the pedal hard and the Silver Manta Ray was at full speed. They were catching up to them until they heard a rumbling sound.

Kimiko: "What was that?!"

Amber: "I don't know."

Dojo: "Clay do something."

Clay: "I can't. If Raimundo were here instead of me and not under Dyris's control, he'd fly this thing better."

The Silver Manta Ray stopped moving.

Kimiko: "Now what?"

Omi: "One of us will have to go after them."

Klofang: "We'll will go."

Klofang, Marco, and Selene were about to leave.

Aly: "I'm coming with you."

Everyone: "What?!"

Dojo: "Are you crazy Aly?"

Aly: "Oh no, I'm sane. I just sit here and wait. I'm going and that's final."

Kimiko: "Okay, here, take some of the wu just incase. We'll stay here and try to get this thing moving again."

Marco: "There's one problem, Selene and I can breathe underwater and you two can't."

Clay: "Yeah, and Raimundo is wearing the Gills of Hamachi."

Amber: "Dojo, can't you turn into a submarine?"

Dojo: "I'm not sure if I can."

Amber: "You must."

Dojo blushed and smiled.

Dojo: "Okay."

He exited the Silver Manta Ray and tranformed into a Submarine.

Dojo: "Hey! I did it! Hop on!"

He opened the hatch. Klofang and Aly got inside. Marco and Selene swam ahead to Dojo can follow them.

Dojo: "Next stop: Dyris's evil lair!"

Back at the Silver Manta Ray.

Omi: "How are we going to get this thing operational again?"

Kimiko: "That manual has to be here somewhere."

She was looking around to find it.

Clay: "Ummm, I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that I found it in the glove compartment, the bad news it's in bad shape."

He pulled it out. There were a bunch of pages mixed up. Meanwhile, the others are still following Marco and Selene. Selene sees an underwater cave. They all entered the passageway cautiously. It was dark and creepy. They see an opening on the ceiling because there was light coming from it. Marco and Selene took a look to see if it was safe. They gave the others a thumbs up as a signal for okay. Everyone went up to the surface. Dojo opened the hatch and closed it after Aly and Klofang got out. They've entered a really large cave, it was very spacious.

Selene: "They're here, I can smell them."

Dojo: "Oh good, I thought it was my body odor."

Aly: "Okay, but don't attack Raimundo, he's under a spell."

Selene: "We know."

Marco: "Shhh! I here something."

They hid behind of chunk of ice. A portal appeared out of nowhere and a figure stepped out of it; it was Dyris and she was carrying the sleeping Raimundo. She set him on a marble slab. Raimundo was wearing a toga. Wow, for a guy who is under a sleeping spell, and wearing a toga, he's kind of hot. Yikes! I can't believe I thought of that! Aly thought without freaking out. Half of the full moon shined through an opening above her. Dyris opened her mouth and her fangs glared.

Selene: "What should we do?"

Klofang: "I say we have a head on attack while we still have the chance."

Marco: "But what if she has this place filled with traps?"

Selene: "I say one of us will have to distract Dyris and get the boy out of there. Without the boy, she can't complete the ceremony."

Dojo: "But what if Dyris attacks us before we save him?"

Marco: "This is going to be hard. Hey...where's Aly?"

Selene: "I dunno...she was here a second ago."

Dojo: "Ummm, guys..."

He pointed at Aly walking straight towards them.

Klofang: "What is that girl doing?!"

Dojo: "My guess...being benevolent."

Dyris was about to bite Raimundo on the neck, when Aly stopped them.

Aly: "Get your fangs away from him!"

She turned her head to see Aly walking towards her without hesitation.

Dyris: "Come to see the end of the world?"

Aly: "No, I came here to save Raimundo."

Dyris: "Hahaha! Please, do you think you can stop me so easily?"

Aly: "No, I expect a good challenge, and I love challenges. Plus, I'm sick and tired of you giving us girls a bad name; you think you can get whatever you want and you don't care who you step on. Well this ends right here!"

Dyris: "Oh, is that like so?"

Aly: "Yes it is."

Dyris: "Well I'm sorry to hear that. Because you know I was going to give him back to you later, but instead I'll finish you off!"

Aly: "Not until I kick your sorry tailfin!"

Dyris: "Moby Morpher!"

She changed into an amazon warrior; she was wearing Roman armor and holding a spear. Aly and Dyris started fighting eachother. Meanwhile Dojo, Klofang, Marco, and Selene sneaked toward Raimundo to get him out of there, but Dyris saw them and changed into an octopus. She grabbed Marco and Selene and tossed them across the cave. Klofang gave Aly a hand.

Klofang: "I'll take care of Dyris! You go and save your friend!"

Aly: "Okay."

Raimundo was still asleep, and Aly shook him.

Aly: "Raimundo...listen to me, your under spell. You must fight it! I know you can do it!"

But he didn't hear a word Aly said. Dojo got grabbed by a tenticle. Dyris changed into a squid!

Aly: "Dojo!"

Dojo: "We'll be okay! Just go!"

But Dojo, Klofang, Marco, and Selene got slammed into the wall. Dyris changed back into herself, took off the Moby Morphers, and tossed them aside.

Dyris: "So Aly, any last words before I finish you off?"

Aly sees the walls of the cave around her, and got an idea. She descretly grabs the Eye of Dashi from her pocket, and held it in the air.

Aly: "EYE OF DASHI!"

A ligthening bolt shot out of the Eye of Dashi and bounced around after being reflected by the icey walls, ceilings, and floors of the cave. The bolt hit the chalace causing it to fall and broke in half, and it hit Dyris's pendant. The Emerald shattered into a million pieces.

Dyris: "No!"

Raimundo finally snapped out of the trance and woke up, looking confused.

Rai: "Huh? Hey! Where am I? What's going on? And why am I wearing a toga?"

He said as he stood up.

Aly: "I'll explain everything later."

Raimundo blushed bright red.

Rai: "Hey Aly. I see your leg is better."

Dyris: "LOOK WHAT YOU HAVE DONE! EVERYTHING IS RUINED! You'll pay for this Aly Tanner!"

Aly: "Go lick a barnicle you old sea witch!"

Dyris growled and looked at the moon's alignment.

Dyris: "Only twenty five minutes left. I may loose my land legs, but that's enough time to destroy you!"

Suddenly, they felt something shaking underneath them. It crashed through the ground! It was the Silver Manta Ray and the hatch opened.

Omi: "Aly! Raimundo! Marco! Selene! Dojo! Klofang! Are you alright?"

Dojo: "We're fine! Just get us out of here!"

Marco and Selene dove into the water. Aly, Dojo, Klofang, and Raimundo hopped inside the Silver Manta Ray. The hatch shut closed and they escaped Dyris's lair. Everyone told Raimundo what happened while he was under her spell.

Rai: "Aw man! I can't believe I almost helped Dyris rule the world."

Kimiko: "Worse than that, we almost lost you."

Omi: "But Aly was willingly to give her life to save you."

Rai: "Really?"

Aly: "Yep. No big."

Rai: "Aly, I..."

Something crashed into them from behind!

Clay: "What was that?!"

Klofang: "Not what, more of a who."

Everyone: "DYRIS!"

Amber: "Why doesn't that suprise me?"

She asked rethorically.

Selene: "We'll distract her, you guys must escape."

Marco and Selene swim toward Dyris. The Xiaolin Warriors made it to the surface. When the hatch opened, everyone immediately got out, and landed on the icey, snow covered ground.

Amber: "I hope they'll be okay."

Aly: "Same here."

Klofang: "I'll go and give them a han...ow!"

Clay: "Are you alright partner?"

Dojo: "Looks like he busted his arm."

Rai: "Dude, you can't swim with a broken arm."

Klofang: "I be fine! Just hand me the gills."

Omi: "Where are the gills?"

Kimiko: "Hey! Where's Aly?....oh no, you don't think...Amber."

Amber: "She told me not to tell you....oops."

Aly swam while wearing the Gills of Hamachi and sees Marco and Selene attacking Dyris, but she was too strong and knocked both of them out of the water. Aly and Dyris saw eachother and had a stare down.

Dyris: "Looks like it's just you and me. You have no idea who you're dealing with sister."

Aly: "Bring it."

They both charged at eachother and bam! The match of the century between Aly Tanner aka Dragon of Light and Dyris the Evil Mer-Monster has begun! Aly used her right hook and socked her! Dyris spun around after getting hit. Then she swam super fast toward her and swacked her with her tail. Both of them breathed heavily.

Dyris: "I...never...real..ize..you...care so much...about...your...boyfriend."

Aly: "He...is...not! Rai is...my friend. And...I won't let...you...hurt...him!"

Dyris: "Awww, that's so sweet. NOT!"

Aly rammed into Dyris and they both crashed into a rock. They got a little dizzy after that. Aly regained consciousness and quickly swam up to the surface. She was able to make it.

Omi: "Aly! Quickly Clay, lasso her out of the water!"

Clay tossed the other end of the rope to Aly. She grabbed on to it and he pulled her out of the water. Dyris regained conscious and searched frantically for Aly. She decided to swim up to the surface. When Dyris reached out her hand to grab the edge of the ice so she can climb up, she felt something and popped her head out to see. She was holding a bag of wu she stole from the vault. Aly was also holding the bag.

Aly: "Dyris, I challenge you to a Xiaolin Showdown! I wager the Gills of Hamachi!"

Dyris: "And I wager the Moby Morpher!"

Aly: The challenge will be a race, from this spot to that big iceberg, and back here! Whoever finishes first wins! And we'll do it in the water!"

Dyris: "Agreed! Just so you know I'm a good swimmer."

Aly: "So am I. Nine out of ten of my medals are gold."

Aly and Dyris: "LET'S GO! XIAOLIN SHOWDOWN!"

Everything suddenly became a South Pole Version of a swimming pool except it's way bigger, there's wildlife underwater, and there are alot of obstacles. The others were sitting in the stands.

Clay: "Hey Omi, how come you didn't pick this kind of challenge when you had a showdown with Dyris?"

Omi: "You don't wear a floaty when you are against an enemy Clay."

Kimiko: "Shhh, the race is about to start."

He said as Klofang points to the starting line; Dyris is in her mermaid form and Aly's armor became a swimsuit.

Clay: "Well I'll be. Aly looks like a rosebush after a rainstorm, not as wet and twice as pretty."

Omi: "Yes, who would've thought she look good in a swimsuit."

Kimiko: "Get your tongues off the floor guys."

Marco: "Tell that to Raimundo, he looks stunned."

Raimundo's eyes bugged out when he saw her. Whoa baby! He thought.

Kimiko: "Oh brother."

Amber: "Raimundo! Snap out of it!"

Dojo was at the starting line dressed up as a referee.

Dojo: "Okay ladies, you can take off when I say..."

Aly and Dyris: "GONG YI TEMPAI!"

Aly: "Gills of Hamachi!"

They both immediately dove into the icey, cold, freezing water.

Dojo: "Go. Why do I bother?"

Aly and Dyris were neck and neck. They dodged alot of sharp looking chuncks of ice. Aly swam with all of her strength, but Dyris has a trick or two up in her sleeve.

Dyris: "Mody Morpher!"

She changed into a white shark and tried to bite Aly's leg to prevent her from winning.

Dojo: "Ahhh! Shark!"

Clay: "That Dyris is a cheater!"

Omi: "I can't believe this is the same Dyris I kissed on the nose."

Kimiko: "Eww, way to much information."

Amber: "Swim Aly! Swim for your life!"

Aly swam as fast as she could, but Dyris kept chomping her teeth. I'm not going to let her win! Aly thought. More chunks of ice were in their way and Dyris got hit by one of them. She got a little dizzy for a moment. Aly made it to the iceberg and swam back. Dyris quickly regained consciousness, swam to the iceberg and back. Aly was ahead, but Dyris used the Moby Morphers again, only this time she changed into an octopus!

Selene: "She is such a weasel!"

Omi: "Hahahahahahaha!"

Klofang: "What are ye laughing at boy?"

Omi: "She said weasel. It's a funny word! Hahahaha!\"

Kimiko: "Omi, that's not funny. Incase you've forgot, there's a Xiaolin Showdown? And one of our friend is in it."

Omi: "Oh yeah, sorry."

They continued to watch the showdown. Dyris grabbed one of Aly's legs and pulled her down into the deep sea and used her other tenticle to grab the Gills of Hamachi to drown her, and the rest to wrap her tightly. Aly held what's left of her breath.

Rai: "Aly! No!"

Even thought it was faint, Aly heard Raimundo calling out her name. I've got to think fast! Or I'm dead! She got struck with an idea. Aly focused her chi.

Dyris: "Did you actually think you would win?"

She asked rethorically in an evil tone. Aly's aura glowed brightly and became electric. It shocked Dyris which made her lose her grip. Aly quickly grabbed the Gills of Hamachi from Dyris.

Aly: "GIllS OF HAMACHI!"

After the transformation, she escaped and continued to swim for the finishing line.

Amber: "YAY! Aly is okay!"

Rai: "Thank goodness."

And with one final stroke, Aly won the showdown! Everyone cheered and everying went back to normal. The Gills of Hamachi, the Moby Morphers, and the bag of Sheng Gong Wu were in her hands. They helped Aly by pulling her out of the water.

Dojo: "Aly Tanner has done it again!"

Amber: "Yeah! She's like /Kim Possible/, because she can do anything!"

Omi: "More like everything!"

Aly: "Come on guys."

She said modestly.

Kimiko: "Don't be shy Aly, it's totally true you know."

Klofang: "You did a fine job lass."

Amber: "Raimundo, aren't you going to say anything?"

Rai: "I...uh...um..."

Omi: "Looks like his tongue got all knotted."

Marco: "Don't you mean /he's tongue tied/?"

Omi: "That is most weird, and gross."

Clay: "Ummm, I don't want to spoil the moment, but it's not over yet."

He pointed at Dyris about to leave the water, looking really mad.

Dyris: "That's it, no more miss nice girl."

Selene: "Nice? You're joking right?

Dyris was about to transform into a monster. But then, something went totally strange. Dyris's body kept jerking and made crackling noises. Instead of turing into a large fish-like monster, Dyris became a half mermaid and half fish master; her left arm became scaley, and part of her face was hideous. She almost looked like the /creature from the black lagoon/.

Kimiko: "Ewww! That is so gross!"

Rai: "I'll say! Yuck!"

Dyris: "Wha...what happened?!"

Aly pulled out the book, and flipped thougth some pages.

Aly: "According to this book; If the Dark Water Ceremony is incomplete, a siren must not transform before midnight or there will be consquenses."

Dyris: "This is the consquence?!"

Aly: "Yep...oh and one more thing, you'll be stuck like that for eternity. Looks like you'll have to pick up guys the old fashioned way."

Kimiko: "Yeah, like she'll find a guy who is into evil monsters."

Dyris growled a little, but then smirked and laughed a little. When she got out of the water, everyone was shocked! She had legs! Fish-like legs!

Dyris: "At least there are some advantages."

She raised her scaley clawed hand and ran toward them. Klofang lauched his small black bombs at her, but Dyris dodged them and landed in front of him. She sweeped her leg and Klofang got knocked over. Marco and Selene charged at her. Dyris punched them hard in the stomachs and they got knocked out.

Dyris: "Three down, seven to go."

Amber: "Seven?"

Dojo: "I think she included you and me."

Omi: "Dyris! I've defeated you before, I\'ll defeat you again!"

Young Monks: "Dragon United Formation!"

Both Dyris and the Xiaolin Monks charged at eachother.

Rai: "Shoku-Wind!"

Omi: "Wudai Neptune-Water!"

Clay: "Wudai Crater-Earth!"

Kimiko: "Wudai Mars-Fire!"

Aly: "Wu...uh, I mean...Spirit Fist-Light!"

The young monks gave all they've got to stop her, but Dyris managed to thwart them by dodging their attacks and knocked all of them out with one kick! They tumbled to the ground and got up.

Dyris: "Face it children, you can't stop me, not even your weapons can save you."

Without hesitation, Aly slowly grabs something from her pocket.

Dyris: "And now it's time to say goodbye!"

She ran toward them and was about to eliminate the young monks with her claws.

Aly: \"Actually, that would be my line."

She said as Aly pulled out a Yo-yo with a Yang Symbol on it.

Aly: "Yang Yo-yo!"

The yo-yo crated a portal to the Ying Yang World and Dyris fell into it.

Dyris: "AAAHHHHHHHHH! I shall have my revenge!"

The portal imploded and vanished into thin air.

Aly: "See ya, wouldn't wanna be ya! And thank god I'm not."

Omi: "At least now we don't have to worry about her coming back anytime soon."

Dojo: "I better record this so future generations can be more prepared when entering the Ying Yang World."

Klofang: "You did a fine job lass."

Aly: "Thanks."

Selene: "Finally, it's all over."

Marco: "So Klofang, what are you going to do now that Dyris is gone?"

Klofang: "Well...incase if she does come back, I should teach people how to fight monsters so I can rest easy."

Rai: "I think I know the perfect place."


Xiaolin Temple

Everyone was chilling out after morning training.

Clay: "It's a good thing Master Monk Guan agreed to let Klofang, Marco, and Selene to become Xioalin Dragons."

Kimiko: "Yeah, they seriously make a great team."

Master Fung: "I am glad to hear that everything worked out well."

Omi: "now that Dyris is gone."

Amber: "Yeah if it weren't for Aly and that Yang Yo-yo. Speaking of Aly, where is she?"

Dojo: "And where is Raimundo?"

Aly was sitting in the library reading, when Raimundo walked up to her.

Rai: "Hey."

Aly: "Hey."

He sat down next to her.

Rai: "I'm just checking to see if you were okay."

Aly: "I'm fine."

Rai: "I know I kept asking you that question all the time, it's just...I care about you. You know?"

Aly: "Of course I do."

Rai: "I also want you to know that I was serious when I said you are better than Dyris. You're everything she isn't; you're nice, smart, cool, and down to earth."

Aly: "Thanks Raimundo, that's the most nicest thing you ever said to me."

Rai: "You're welcome. Aren't you cold? Here...take my jacket."

Aly: "You don't have to."

Rai: "But I want to."

He placed the jacket over Aly's shoulders. She felt something in his inside pocket and pulled it out. Aly was holding a plastic red rose.

Rai: "Happy Valentine's Day."

Aly: "Rai, you're so sweet. Too sweet. Are you the real Raimundo?"

Rai: "Of course I am."

Aly: "We'll see."

She moved in closer to Raimundo and kissed him on the lips. He became stunned and frozen when Aly's lips left his. Rai's eyes bugged out, his lips were puckered, and his face was all red.

Aly: "Yep, you're the real Raimundo Pedrosa. Happy late Valentine's Day."

She got up and walked out the door. Omi walked inside the library.

Omi: "There you are Raimundo, we were wondering where you were."

He took a look at him and became puzzled by Rai's expression.

Omi: "Raimundo?"

He shook his hand to his face and started to freak out.

Omi: "Ahhhhhh! My friends! Come quick! Raimundo has gone zombie again!"
