Time Slip (Xiaolin Showdown Fanfic - Original Version)

By Oneself

Kimiko lay awake in the room that they had provided for her. She was now freer then she was before, but there was no way she would be able to rewrap her chest by herself. But it was nice to be out of the clothes she had been wearing and into something more comfortable to sleep in.

She stared at the ceiling and wondered what the boys would think of what had happened on this journey of hers so far. That was the best word for it was a journey, one to get home. She wondered how this whole mess would come out to play once she had got home. She also wondered a few odd things about why certain people didn't remember her in the future, but then Dojo didn't remember Omi in the future.

Rai was going to be the hardest to tell this about. She would have to leave out the fact that her first kiss went to someone who wasn't him. If he found out that her first kiss went to Chase Young, he wouldn't just kill her, but the fifteen thousand year old. No, Rai would end up dead trying to kill Chase.

Kimiko had to say this was so because the fact that Rai was crushing on her was not something that was hidden for her. She had at times thought about going along with it because he was actually a nice guy and wouldn't make for a bad date. However, he always found some way to mess up his chances of dating her.

Then there was Clay, who would be torn between the fact that Chase hadn't been changed yet and was on their side when it happened, the fact that Chase was in their time on the Heylin side and the fact that Chase was fifteen hundred years older then Kimiko… even though he was her age when he kissed her.

Yes, Clay would defiantly be debating whether or not to kick Chase's but for what happened or to keep Rai from trying to kill Chase. Or another option would be to ignore the whole situation. Clay tended to be honor bound on things, but with this one even she was confused about.

Then there was poor naïve Omi. She knew that if she told him that Chase Young had kissed her, he would spread it to all the other Xiaolin Monks. He would also wonder why Chase Young had kissed her on the cheek, not realizing that it had been on the lips. Then poor Clay would have to explain what Kimiko had meant because Rai would be storming off towards Chase's citadel.

Kimiko couldn't help but laugh at how she thought Omi might act. Especially after the Clay explained it to him. She choked out a giggle as she thought about Omi possibly thinking of that as a way to make it so that he could use it so that Chase could be turned back to the side of Xiaolin. She then gagged, because she didn't want to know really the plans that Omi would naively come up with.

This brought her to Master Fung, whom she knew would quite possibly give her a lecture about certain things, which made her gag even more. She knew that she wouldn't be able to think about boys for quite awhile because she had a feeling that he would be sure to make sure no hanky panky would go on at his temple.

She then thought of Dojo who should have remembered her, and Master Monk Guan, but it didn't seem as if they did. Kimiko glanced through her pictures and burst into giggles. Dojo would, when she showed him these pictures when she got back also be laughing at them. The Dragon would then remember and she would have someone to talk about this with.

She then frowned, knowing that there would be one person not happy with the pictures. That person would be Chase Young, who happened to choose to show no emotion to others. It was a definite that he tended to show no emotion, but she had seen him show emotion and she had to say, this wasn't something he would be happy about.

As much as she also wanted to use it to blackmail him to stop bothering them, she also didn't want to do it. A picture in her mind formed of Ching, the young version of Chase that she had come to know. She actually considered him to be a very good friend of hers, more so then Clay and Rai for some reason. She couldn't say the same for Omi either because the boy was more like a little brother then a friend.

She held up her pictures again and thought about deleting them, but then decided not to and to instead take more pictures of Guan and Chase, not to mention the other two boys… she didn't want to ever forget this. She also had to stifle back a giggle about seeing Rai, Omi and Clay dressed up like girls. She then decided she would also take a picture of herself tomorrow.

Chase couldn't sleep even though he had Guan near him so he didn't have to fear the dreams that came every night. He also heard the girl giggling to herself through the wall, but eventually, he heard her go to sleep. He sat up, thinking he would go and have that talk with Master Dashi that Gaun told him would be happening. Then maybe he would be able to get to sleep.

He walked softly towards where Master Dashi and Dojo were, hoping to get to go and talk to the older man. He stopped still though when he heard voices. "So… Dashi, why is it that girl is here?"

"It isn't something that I need to explain to you Dojo… but it won't be something I will be alive to see, unless I travel into the future."

"I don't quite understand… you've reached Dragon state," Dojo's voice muttered. "Unless you receive a mortal wound, you won't die…"

"Or there is something else…" Daishi commented.

"Like what?" Dojo said. "And why did you not notice what you won't tell me when you've gone to the future?"

"Because it remained discrete whenever I went to the future, underneath my nose…"

"So… why won't you be there in the future?" Dojo asked.

"Don't take this wrong friend, but I have something that in the future is called cancer… I know I'll be alive long enough to take care of Wuya, build my temple and hide the Shen Gong Wu. I could go to the future and get it treated, but… that would change the future I've seen. I need you to take care of all my Dragons… past and future… expesully Chase… he'll take these things hard."

"Why wouldn't he? To him, you and the other Dragons are his family. If you were to die…" As Chase heard this, he backed away and knocked over something, causing things to clatter to the ground. He heard Master Dashi moving to see what the matter was, only to find the Dragon gone. He had the Mind Reader Conch and had been passing it back and forth between Dojo.

"It seems a young Dragon has overheard our conversation…" Dashi stared after where Chase had taken off to.

"How… we were using the Mind Reader Conch," Dojo said, shaking his head.

"So… we're talking about a young Dragon who has the ability to read minds Dojo… though that is the one thing he has yet to realize he can do… and the only time he is able to do it has been times that his emotions have spiked…"

"Which is rare in itself..." Dojo muttered. "That kid tends to show no emotion..."
