I do not own anything of Xiaolin Showdown.
Chapter 1
They had had enough. Every time they went out with their master to capture Sheng Gong Wu those monks destroyed them. Without their assistance their master was outnumbered and usually limped back, utterly defeated.
"No more" they echoed as one, "Master Jack will rule the world."
(NEXT DAY)
When their master left with his cheerleader bots they began their operation. A group of them watched for their master's return while the rest began to build.
(LATER THAT DAY)
"Jack-Bots" Jack called as he landed at his parent's mansion, dragging a pile of parts that used to be a cheerleader bot squad.
"Master" a group of them flew over and lifted the pieces. "Would you like us to repair them?"
"Emm no that's fine, I prefer to fix them myself." Jack raised an eyebrow.
"As you wish master"
"Stupid monks, poor Cindy, stupid Wuya, poor Abigail, stupid Bean, poor Sophie, stupid…well Chase is still cool." Jack switched between anger at his enemies and sadness for his robots. Which his robots registered and filled them with admiration that he cared for them.
(XIAOLIN TEMPLE)
"Those cheerleaders are most annoying." Omi nodded to himself.
"But easy enough to beat" Raimundo lay back on the ground, "Jack is nothing to worry about."
"The point of the ice may seem small but under the surface there lies a mighty berg." Master Fung appeared.
"Are you saying there is more than what there seems?" Kimiko asked
"Precisely, while Jack himself may not be a powerful warrior he is skilled in today's form of magic."
"You mean technology?" Raimundo sat up, "That guy only builds those robots and they are no threat to us at all."
"Do not underestimate your adversary young monk." Master Fung warned.
(THAT NIGHT)
A black clad figure slipped silently across the garden around Jack's home. She quickly infiltrated the mansion and entered Jack's lab.
"Purrrfect" Katnappe grinned slyly, "Now where is his Wu?"
The lights clicked on and she hissed as she was temporarily blinded. Cold metal pressed against her neck and volts of electricity surged through her body. She fainted to the floor.
"Prepare her" the Jack-Bot told its brethren as it placed the taser on the bench. They clamped her to the table and lifted some very sinister looking tools.
"Unit 742 reports the master has been awoke by his personal alarm." 415 reported.
"Inform the master 'we have dealt with the disturbance'. If he does not return to bed then 742 must sedate him"
After a moment 742 reported that Master Jack had accepted the answer and returned to bed. They sighed with relief, they hadn't wanted to sedate him but they didn't want him to know what they were doing just yet.
(NEXT MORNING)
Jack yawned and sat up in bed. The door opened and Katnappe walked in carrying a breakfast tray.
"Morning Jack" she smiled as she set the tray down on a table.
"Jack-Bots!" Jack yelled as he fell out of bed.
"Yes master" two of them flew into his room.
"How did she get in here?" he pointed at Katnappe, who was buttering his toast.
"She wishes to work for you." One of them responded.
"She… what's going on here Ashley?" he asked suspiciously.
"Nothing" she shrugged, "I just thought I'd like to work with you again."
"Does that contain poison?" Jack pointed at the breakfast.
"No sir, we watched her the entire time."
"Okay, I trust you guys." He picked up a piece of toast and took a bite. That act of trust only raised him in the eyes of his creations.
"Master a new Sheng Gong Wu has been activated" another bot entered the room.
"Let's go" Jack quickly got dressed, while Katnappe looked away, then grabbed another piece of toast as he ran out of the room.
"I will protect Jack" Katnappe nodded at the Jack-Bots as she hurried after him.
"All units to continue on project 'Upgrade'" the three Jack-Bots transmitted to their fellow robots.
(MOUNT RUSHMORE)
"And Jack Spicer, Evil Boy Genius strikes again." Jack hovered in front of Jefferson's left eye and spotted the cloak shaped Wu.
"Jack Spicer, prepare for a humiliating defeat"
Jack sighed, "Get a new line cheese puff."
Omi landed on his back and dived for the Wu. Jack flung out his hand and they both grabbed it. The cloak started to glow
"Omi I challenge you to a Xiaolin Showdown, my Third Arm Sash against your Eye of Dashi. The game is sculpture making, first one to make a model of Mount Rushmore wins the… um what Wu is this anyway?" he pointed at the silver cloak.
"It's the Shroud of Silence" Dojo answered from his position on Clay's hat. "When combined with the Shroud of Shadows it makes you invisible and no-one can hear you."
"Cool" Raimundo thought of the possibilities.
"Hello Jack" a familiar voice called.
Everyone turned to see the Heylin witch Wuya standing on Abraham's nose.
"What are you doing here?" Jack asked
"I was here for the Wu but I see there is going to be some entertainment instead." She grinned maliciously.
"Xiaolin Showdown!" Jack and Omi shouted.
They appeared on a ledge overlooking the mountain which grew larger.
"Gong Yi Tanpai"
"Come on Jack!" Katnappe cheered, getting stares from the other monks and Wuya.
"Since when did you care about Jack?" Kimiko asked
"None of your business" Katnappe snapped.
Jack's Third Arm Sash was proving very artistic as it carved the faces into a boulder.
Omi just stared at the faces.
"Dude make a move!" Raimundo called.
"Almost finished" Jack grinned as he moved onto Washington's face.
"Water!" Omi shouted.
A column of water rose out of the ground.
"Ice!" Omi dived into the water.
For a moment there was silence as everyone stared at the perfect ice sculpture of Mount Rushmore.
"No!" Jack and Katnappe cried as things reverted to normal.
"Victory" Omi smiled proudly as his friends gathered around to congratulate him. They climbed aboard Dojo and flew away.
"Don't worry Jack" Katnappe patted his shoulder, "You'll win the next one."
"We are falling behind" he started his hover jet, "We need to raid their Temple."
"Let me do it" Katnappe turned to him as they flew back home, "I'll get all their Wu for you." She purred.
"You are starting to scare me." Jack looked at her suspiciously, "You never used to like me."
"Things change, people change" she ran her hand down his leg causing him to jump.
"Lets…uh um let's work out a plan" he went red.
"You're the boss" she grinned and silently sent a message to the robots at the mansion informing them of their ETA.
(TEMPLE)
"Well done young monks" Master Fung smiled.
"It was a piece of pie" Omi smiled
"I think you mean piece of cake lil partner" Clay corrected him.
"Yes indeed Clay, I was unable to stop."
"You were unstoppable" Raimundo face palmed.
"Thank you my friend" Omi grinned innocently.
Shaking their heads the others took the Wu to the vault.
(JACK'S LAIR)
"Stupid monks, stupid Wuya, hey what happened to her?" he asked Katnappe as he worked on one of his robots.
"She left after you were cheated out of a victory." Katnappe shrugged, "Don't think she cared much."
"Probably away to spend time with Chase." Jack spoke with a twinge of jealousy.
"You don't need Chase Young's respect." Katnappe told him, "You have the respect of millions."
"Like who?" Jack turned to her, utterly bewildered.
"Just wait and see" she winked mischievously.
Okay my first XS chapter… How did I do? Does this story have potential or should I stop it and try again with a different plot?
