Great start to the rewritten version of Red Empress. I see you decide to start off the new version with another one of your brilliant monologues.

Awesome chapter.

Once again I loved the monologue at the start of the chapter. It was interesting seeing things from Jack's perspective. He's a lot more perceptive than what most people think.

The meeting and introduction with Drakken and Shego was done perfectly in my opinion.

I think Drakken's little speech was very epic, and a nice touch. Drakken: I am going to become more then just a everyday villain! Loved it. :)

It will interesting to see how Drakken and Shego's first meeting with the Heylin and Xiaolin, as well as their first Showdown experience will go.

That ending scene with Kim and Ron was a nice touch. Poor Kim has no idea that everything has just changed. A whole new game is about to begin. I wonder will she be able to stay a strong player, or will she fail big time.

I wonder how long till Team Possible will find out about this whole thing with Jacklyn and the war for the Wu.

It will also be interesting to see how Drakken and Shego will grow from hired help to a real part of Jacklyns growing family.

Of course they aren't the only interesting thing about this chapter. We get another mention of Jacklyn's mysterious father. Who apparently so feared and infamous even D&S know of his reputation.

We also see a interesting small cameo of another crossover during Jack and Jackals scene in the tv room. Which I think was done very well.

Another AWESOME chapter. Thanks for the shout out, I'm just happy to be of help. :)

Once again I loved the monologue at the start of the chapter. I hope we'll see more of those in the future. Will each person that joins Jacklyn get their own monologue like Jackal did?

Jackal's first time in a showdown turned out very well, with a win for the Spicer family.

I really like Jacklyn's design for her Jackbot. No one will treat these like a joke that's for certain. Plus they certainly appear a lot more intimidating than their canon counterparts.

Zack's almost earns the Darwin award, by trying to steal the Wu. Looking back I'm kinda surprised Jack, or another villain never tried that in canon.

I actually almost feel sorry for Wuya. I'm starting to think her canonself got a better deal with canon Jack.

Jacklyn get's quite a surprise when she find's out Shego exist in this world. Which raises a very serious question for her. How many other show exist in this world?

Can't wait to see the Monks and Heylins reactions when Jacklyn answers Omi's question. It should be very interesting.

Awesome chapter. Thank you for telling us about the Reverse Xiaolin Showdown comic. I hadn't heard of it so I'll have to check it out.

I really enjoyed that deep monologue about good and evil at the beginning of the chapter. It was really deep.

So that's how Jacklyn took her first life, to save her son's life.

I must admit I'm now looking forward to the reactions of Fung and the other monks, when it's time for that playdate.

I just thought of something. Will the Spicers family side get their own name? I mean there not Xiaolin or Heylin. Plus I'm guessing their going to recruit other people to their side.

What do you think about Katnappe falling for Jackal. She could really like the strong silent type. Also had a idea where she fall's for both Jackal and Kimiko. She decides why she should settle for both, and tries to form a threeway relationship.

Got a idea for a original Wu. It's called the Scarab Seeker. Remember that object Jafar used to the find the Cave of Wonders. Basically the Scarab Seeker ability is to find anything you're looking for. You just have to think about while calling it's the name. The downsides to the Wu is that you have to keep up with it while following. Also it doesn't come back to you, it stops and stays with the object it was sent to find.

Also what do you think about having a giant robot battle, or a giant monster/kaiju battle as Showdowns? It doesn't seem the Showdowns are limited when it comes to options. So I could see Jacklyn taking advantage of that fact and issuing more out there challenges.

this is the best thing I have ever read
nightmaster000 chapter 16 . 2/9/2017
Excellent chapter.

Clay really need's to think before acting.

Zack is really starting to grow on me. He's starting to remind of a magical version canon Jack Spicer. That scene with Kimiko scaring the pants off him was very amusing. :)

I do like you're choices for the groups.

It seem's like Jack and Omi are developing a friendship despite being on opposite sides.

Clay realizes that Jackal may be villain but he won't betray his family and friends.

Finally we have Jacklyn and Raimundo. I wonder if we're going to get any hints on why Rai seem's so interested in Jacklyn.

It's starting to seem like you plan to pair Jacklyn with Raimundo. But's still to early to tell. I'm personally open to her being paired with anyone. Though I will admit to kind of rooting for Kimiko.

You know the Spicers faction are really going to add a shade of grey to hunt for the Wu. In canon it was just black/white with good vs evil.

I'm curious to see how our heroes will react when they learn the reasons why Jacklyn wants to take over the world.

I'm curious about something. In canon Raimundo and Omi we're either tempted or spent time in the Darkside. Will the same thing happen to Kimiko and Clay in this story?

I suppose in Clay and Kimiko sort of spent some time on the darkside. But those don't really count. Clay's body was being controlled, and Kimiko only turned evil during that whole Showdown she and Wuya had with the Yin and Yang yoyo's.

Anyway I could see Jacklyn being the one to tempt Kimiko towards darkness. Jacklyn could appeal to Kimiko that despite her actions her goals are noble. Maybe she could try to convince Kimiko that their families could form a alliance in the business world.

Got a idea for a original episode for this story. Though now that I think about it could also work for Where my Roots Lead too if you want.

Basically it would be about the Wishing Skull from the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy episode Wishbones. Every character good and evil makes a wish that always backfires. But in the end someone wishes that no one ever found the Skull in the first place. What do you think?

Excellent chapter.

Yeah cooking is certainly not Jacklyns strong point. Though on the bright side her cooking could be used against her enemies in a showdown. Kind of has me thinking of Grandma Stuffum from Kids Next Door.
nightmaster000 chapter 14 . 1/22/2017
Another excellent chapter.

It was interesting getting a bit of the Monks perspective on last chapter. The more I hear about Jacklyn's father the more curious I grow.

I look forward on hearing the thoughts of the Xiaolin Showdown character on Jacklyn both good and evil as the story goes on.

So do you already have a pairing for Jacklyn planned? Whether boy or girl I don't judge.
nightmaster000 chapter 11 . 12/23/2016
Very interesting story. So the series has started with a OC taking Jack's place. But now that Jacklyn knows the hunt for the Wu has begun, it's only a matter of time till she throws her hat in.
