It's been 5 days since Clay left and the Xiaolin Monks have been sad since then.

Right now, all three of them are doing the dishes from the dinner that Jackie had prepared tonight.

Omi was scrubbing, Kimiko was washing off the suds and Raimundo was drying.

Meanwhile Jackie was in the dining area cleaning the table.

"Kimiko" Omi said handing his plate to her.

After washing off the soap the Dragon holds the plate out to Raimundo.

"Raimundo."

The Dragon of Wind dries it and holds it out "Clay." He then let go of it, but it fell to the floor and broke.

"What the fuck, again?!" Jackie said walking inside the room to look down at the broken plate.

"Are you kidding me? that's the 8th plate this week!" she exclaimed a little peeved.

"Don't look at me! I got stubby little dragon hands." Dojo proclaimed.

Omi sighs in sadness "Ahh, I miss Clay." He said and sat on the floor.

"It's not really the same, is it?" Kimiko questioned.

"You can say that again. I still get to make fun of Omi but half the time he doesn't even know I'm doing it." Raimundo stated.

"I wonder what Clay is doing right—" the young monk then realized what Raimundo had said and glared at him.

"YOU MAKE FUN OF ME?!" He exclaimed.

And that just makes Raimundo even glummer "Oh man, I miss Clay."

"Too bad his daddy's such a stubborn cowboy." Kimiko stated.

Dojo nods his head and said, "Yeah, but you got to dig the man's sense of style. That tie slide thingy is really—" Dojo stops when he realizes on where exactly he's seen the lone star from. "Whoa!"

The monks look at him in confusion "What's wrong with you?" Jackie asked.

"I just realized why the Lone Star looked so familiar. It's the Star Hanabi." He proclaimed.

Kimiko looks at him intrigued "I'm guessing that's a Shen Gong Wu?"

Dojo nods his head and puts his right hand on his chin and thought out loud, "Yeah, it must be inactive. That's why I didn't notice before."

Omi's eyes widen when he realizes what will happen when it activates. "But if it activates Angelynn and Wuya will be all over it. Like Kiju flies on a sun berry blossom."

Jackie facepalmed and had to take a deep breath so she wouldn't cringe. "Omi never ever say that again."

Everyone else looked at the young monk in bewilderment.

Omi looks down "I miss Clay and his colorful metaphors."

"We can see that." Jackie proclaimed.

She then stretches her arms "Now. How about we clean up this mess you made, clean the rest of the dishes, and head over to Clay's home." She suggested.

With newfound energy the three monks went back to their chore and finished in 8 minutes.

"Let's get dressed!" Kimiko exclaimed and heads to her room.

Jackie sighed and does the same thing and quickly threw something on.

Which was an off shoulder long sleeve black shirt, dark gray skinny jeans, black wedge boots with red laces, and black fingerless gloves.
