Rain pours from the clouds, as a woman in a black cloak walks down the street, right under the sky. She's soaking wet, and seems to be limping. She goes along slowly, searching for something. Her breathing is heavy, and almost strained.

She seems to be hurt, injured, or maybe even abused. But, the truth of her health is untold. The woman goes up to a tea shop, her legs now growing weak. As if she's about to collapse. She opens the front door of the tea shop, and walks inside.

A team of employees see her enter, as they're in the midst of cleaning up. They go to send her out, but an old man, with a long white beard enters the room.

"Um... sorry, Miss, but we're currently closed for the night." Says a worker with side swept brown hair.

The woman does not respond. She leans her body up against the archway of the main door and she holds her side. The crew looks at her oddly. The woman removes her hand from her side, and shows thr blood stained on her skin to them.

"She's wounded!!" Exclaims a male with black tossed hair.

The same male drops his broom and rushes to the woman. She starts to slip, before she finally falls off her feet.

The male catches her in his arms, just before she hits her head on the floor. The woman grabs onto the males wrist, which spreads some of her blood on him. But he doesn't care at the moment.

"I need...." She whispers hoarsly.

"Yes? What do you need?"

"A man... named... Wu."

Everyone's eyes widen, and the woman passes out. The employees of the tea shop all look to the old man with a white beard.

"Bring her in." He tasks.

They all nod, and help for getting the mysterious woman inside.

(Sparkle! With this magic, you now know who these people are! Except for the woman.)

Cole lifts the woman up in his arms and carries her inside. Wu tells him to bring her to the couch in the back room, and he does. He carefully positions her on the cushions, and the others gather around.

"Remove her cloak." Wu instructs.

Nya and Jay move to the task and gently rid of her cloth... including the hood. They see her features and her fair white skin. Her lips look soft, and smooth. She wears a leather chestplate, and blood is staining her gray blouse just above her hip.

The team all look to Wu.

"Can we help her?" Asks Kai.

"Grab me Healers Tea from the top shelf in the corner."

Zane rushes to it and grabs the packet. He runs it into some water, and starts the concoction. Once it's done, he hands it to the Sensei and steps back.

Wu pours some into the womans mouth, and she unconsciously swallows it. The pale in her skin starts to fade, and lightens up. The whole of them sigh a breath of relief.

Cole, remembering what she said before she slipped, steps up to Wu. Then he asks.

"Sensei... do you know this woman?"

Their master sighs and lowers his head. His gaze fixes on the injured woman and he studies her face.

"I'll admit. She looks familiar. But I cannot come to where I've seen her before."

"Well, then we wait until she wakes up. Maybe she can tell us why she's looking for you." Perks Kai.

"If she wakes up." Dawns Zane.
