For the young Dragon's inside who had finally settled down to sleep. Dashi had his eyes closed and was sitting up in the room that was his. He had some suspicions of who it was that had come to spy on them. However, he hadn't wanted to worry the young ones in his charge. He had no clue what she had in mind, but he had the feeling that she had a drastic plan, not what she wanted this time.
He heard the soft pattering of feet outside his door and frowned. These footsteps were not of one of the children who were his Dragons, nor was it the girl Kimiko's footsteps. However, they weren't the footsteps of the person he had felt spying on them, or figured to be spying on them. He frowned at this and wondered who this person was and carefully got up.
He opened the door and saw one of the wealthy girls from the village walking down the corridor, heading to where they were keeping the Wu. He narrowed his eyes at this and saw Kimiko stick her head out of the room she had been given, along with Chase and Gaun. Dashi sighed and shook his head, knowing his plan to take care of it without them knowing wasn't going to work.
"What's going on?" Kimiko asked. "I was having problems sleeping when I heard footsteps."
"Nothing…" Dashi commented thinking to himself that to let them be children when possible was sometimes a good thing, sometimes a bad thing.
"No… that's the girl who was… was… what exactly is the word for what she was going," Chase muttered.
"Flirting with you… hitting on you… propositioning you with a marriage proposal," Kimiko muttered.
"That is the word for it," the boy groaned. "Why is she going after our Wu! I mean… oh."
"What does oh mean Chase?" the older boy asked.
"Kimiko and I had a showdown over the Reversing Mirror…" Chase muttered figuring he would be in trouble. "She thought that the mirror was supposed to be a gift for her… which wasn't so… she was obnoxious."
"She should have heard us talking!" Kimiko commented.
"Lian-Li… let's take care of this… I mean… it is likely our fault," Chase commented.
Kimiko nodded her head and they hurried after the girl. Dashi shook his head at them. "This isn't about whose fault this is…"
"Why do I have the feeling this has nothing to do with what they did?" the eldest boy asked.
Kimiko and Chase walked up to the girl and saw the girl picking up certain Shen Gong Wu. None of them were the reversing mirror, but the two followed her as she went through an opening in the wall that was not a door. They could hear behind them Gaun and Dashi catching up but didn't stick around.
They followed the girl down the path away from the place that was their home and found themselves leaving the village and heading into the mountains. Kimiko frowned at this as soon as they lost site of the girl as she disappeared around the path. They had also had lost Dashi and Gaun, who were following behind them somewhere.
"Something isn't right… I am quite sure that one wouldn't come out this way from the village unless they needed to." Kimiko commented, narrowing her eyes.
"I…" Chase started, only to have someone speak up behind them.
"Surprised to see me?" both turned to see a woman with a painted face grinning at them. "Looks like I got two prizes instead of one.
"Wuya!" both gasped.

Earlier that night, Wuya had been watching them disappear into their showdown. She knew that Dashi's Shen Gong Wu made for great weapons to use against other people, a great bonus to her Heylin magic. She licked her tongue in greed, wanting the new one that they were battling over.
Dashi was to cautious though for her to go in herself, so she had to do something… which came to her when she found a young girl sneaking around. "What are you doing?"
"De… de… demon!" the girl stammered out.
"Demon! Close enough… as I am your worst nightmare!" the lady cackled. She then held out a Shen Gong Wu she had stolen earlier. "Listen to me! I want you to retrieve something for me and bring it to a certain location in the mountains."

Wuya fingered here chin, then moved quicker then the two expected, knocking them to the ground. The one boy she recognized was not moving like he usually did. His mind seemed to be focused more on keeping his companion safe then anything else, though it seemed quite well that the other boy could take care of themselves.
Of course, Wuya didn't know that Kimiko was really a girl. She did know that the person she saw looked to be the age of the other one, which meant that he likely wanted to keep his new found friend. She smiled at this and knew what move to make. She quickly moved in-between the two, startling the one she knew and made the other angry. She then brought her hands back to make contact with the back of their heads, knocking them out.
Chase gasped out in pain and crumbled to the ground. Kimiko fell on top of them and Wuya used her magic to move them into her secret base grinning about her luck.
