World Domination, Baby! (Xiaolin Showdown x Disgaea)

A Minor Mishap

"What do you mean you don't know what it does?" Raimundo asked, stopping his spoonful of cereal inches away from his face as he looked at the small, green dragon in disbelief. "Isn't that your job?"

Him and the four monks had been happily eating their breakfast when the Dojo had burst into the room, shouting about a new Shen Gong Wu being revealed. When asked about the details, however...

Dojo curled up the Shen Gong Wu scroll he had been sifting through with a frustrated breath. "Look, do you know how many Shen Gong Wu there are?! I can't remember all of them! The last time I even saw most of them was more than a thousand years ago! It's been a while, give me a break!"

"This better not end up like that Sapphire Dragon incident," Kimiko warned with a frown, her shudder matched by the rest of the group. "I still get nightmares about that sometimes..."

"I'd, uh, rather not be reminded of that one, partner," Clay admitted, tugging his cowboy hat downwards to hide his expression.

"Either way, we must get to it before Chase and Wuya do!" Omi pointed out. "Or worse, Hannibal Bean!"

"Omi's right. We'll just have to figure out what it does later," Kimiko nodded. "It's better than letting one of them take it."

"So, do you at least know where it is, Dojo?" Reimundo asked, arching an eyebrow at him.

Dojo huffed, crossing his arms and giving him an insulted glare. "Of course I do! I'm not incompetent!"

"Of course you're not, Dojo," Kimiko reassured. She gave Raimundo a warning glare, earning an apologetic smile, before looking back at Omi and Clay. "Let's get a move on then, guys. Someone else could already be looking for it."

"Alright, let's go!" Reimundo urged, growing a bit excited as he jumped off his chair and ran out the door. "Hurry up!"

The three remaining monks and dragon were quick to follow. Once outside, Dojo didn't waste a moment before transforming, becoming almost as big as the building they exited from. "Get on, kids!"

They quickly jumped on and the dragon took to the skies, slashing through the air and clouds as they headed for the new Shen Gong Wu.

"CHASE! A NEW SHEN GONG WU HAS REVEALED ITSELF!"

Chase winced and let out a sigh as he once again was forcefully taken out of his meditation. He opened one eye just in time to see Wuya burst into his supposed-to-be-private chamber, her eyes glowing an emerald green while her red hair flowed around her.

"Must you do that every time a Shen Gong Wu activates?" He asked irritably, allowing himself to float back onto the ground, where he landed gracefully.

Wuya blinked as her eyes and hair returned to normal. Coughing awkwardly, she ran a hand through her crimson locks. "Er, force of habit."

"So, which is it this time?" Chase asked, reaching out his hand and patting one of his nearby Cat Warriors; a large lion who let out a lazy yawn. "If it's not anything valuable to me, then you are on your own retrieving it."

At this, Wuya's expression grew a bit nervous. "The Shen Gong Wu is..."

Chase looked over at her with a frown when she trailed off. "Well? Speak up, Witch. Your knowledge on the Shen Gong Wu, much as I am loathed to admit it, is vaster than mine."

Wuya coughed again uncomfortably. "Well... I'm not entirely sure which Shen Gong Wu it is."

Chase paused and turned to face her, eyebrow arched in question. "You don't know? Isn't this your specialty?"
