• Chapter 1

    Omi and the other xiaolin monks were training when Dojo came to meet them.
    “Stop your training, young monks! A new Sheng-Gong-Wu has activated!”
    “Finally some real action!” Raimundo cried.
    “Which one is it this time, Dojo?” Kimiko asked.

    “It’s called ‘The Mirror of Truth’. When someone stands in front of this mirror, it shows that person’s biggest secrets.”
    “So…it is like a reader of the thoughts?” Omi questioned.
    “Hey, little buddy…don’t cha mean ‘mind reader’?” Clay replied.
    “That too.”

    “Anyways, we can’t let Jack Spicer grab a hold on that Sheng-Gong-Wu. Who knows what he would do with it!” Dojo yelled.
    All the xiaolin monks started imagining what would happen if Jack really got the mirror of truth, and they all shivered at their thoughts.

    Raimundo imagined Jack Spicer discovering that he keeps one of kimikos panties in his drawer.
    Omi imagined Jack Spicer discovering that he sleeps with a teddy bear and sucks his finger.
    Kimiko imagined Jack Spicer discovering that she’s the one that attacks the fridge in the middle of the night.
    Clay imagined Jack Spicer discovering that he babysits young children every Sunday night (Raimundo wouldn’t leave him alone for a whole month if Jack told him).

    “Huh…hellooo…earth to monks…SNAP OUT OF IT ALLREADY!!!” Dojo yelled. All the monks jumped backwards with a scream and came back to reality. Dojo sighed. “Thank you! Now can we get moving?”
    Then he turned into his bigger sized form and the monks climbed onto him.


    At the Spicer Mansion…

    “Jack!!! Get in here, you stupid boy! A new Sheng-Gong-Wu has revealed itself!” Wuya screamed while she floated in the direction of Jack’s lair.
    “J-just a minute…I’ll be out right away.” A boy’s voice could be heard from behind the locked door.

    Half a minute later, that same door opened, showing a 15-year-old redhead, dressed in black pants and boots and a long overcoat, also black. His skin is white as snow and his hair and eyes are red as blood. On his forehead’s a pair of yellow goggles with two red spirals on them. The boy was wearing some kind of collar around his neck.

    Ignoring that last detail, Wuya started yelling at him. “What took you so long?! The monks must be on their way to retrieve the Sheng-Gong-Wu and we’re still here and…are you wearing lipstick?”
    If possible, Jack would have turned even whiter after hearing that question. “No! Of course not! I…my lips were really dry, so I just put some water on them…”

    “Riiight…” the evil witch rolled her eyes. “How come each day I spend with you I have the feeling that you’re hiding something from me?”
    “Since when do you have feelings?” Jack asked, whipping his lips with the back of his hand.
    Wuya growled angrily at him. “Hurry up, you stupid boy. I’ll tell you about the Mirror of Truth on the way.”
    “Why would you tell me about a stupid mirror?” Wuya grabbed a shoe and smacked him on the head. “Ow!!!”
    “That’s the name of the Sheng-Gong-Wu, you idiot!”
    “’Ow’?”
    Wuya throwed the shoe at Jack. “No!!! Mirror of Truth!!!”
    “Oh…”
    In a blink of an eye they were leaving the Spicer Mansion.


    “Here we are, guys.” Dojo informed, landing in front of a cave.
    “Wow…it is such a big hole…” Omi exclaimed with wide eyes.
    “It’s called a cave, Omi.” Raimundo replied.
    “I’ve never seen something this big since my papa went to search for water in the desert.”
    All the other monks looked at Clay.
    “He didn’t find any, did he?” Raimundo replied.
    “No…” Clay answered, staring at the ground.

    Kimiko looks back at the cave. “It’s really dark. We could sure use some light…” she said. Then she closed her eyes in concentration.
    A moment later the monks were already inside the cave, each one with a floating flame.

    Wuya looked at Jack’s neck, and the only thing she could think of was discovering why Jack needed that collar. Although he’s been wearing it for a month now, she never asked him the reason to wear it. ‘Ah, screw it! I’ll ask him later.’ she thought to herself.

    After landing in front of the cave, Jack stared at it’s darkness and shivered. He’s was always afraid of the dark, ever since he was a little kid. “Light-bot!” he called. “We need some light!” a robot that looked just like Wuya made it’s own eyes glow, and floated into the cave, followed by Jack, Wuya and the other Jackbots.

    “Are we there yet?”
    “No.” Kimiko replied.
    “Are we there yet?”
    “No.” Clay replied.
    “Are we there yet?”
    “Yes.” Raimundo replied.
    “Seriously?” Omi asked happily.
    “No.” He answered. Omi’s smile vanished as soon as it came.

    It was getting cold inside of the tunnel. Jack shivered, crossing his arms in front of his chest. He hated being an albino. He hated having such a sensitive skin. He hated being so sensitive to low temperatures. Fortunately for him, one of his robots, one that was called gentle-bot (from the word “gentleman”) brought a little blanket. The gentle-bot wrapped the blanket around Jack’s shoulders.

    “Thank you.” Jack replied, receiving a nod of the robot as an answer.
    ‘I really must be missing something…’ Wuya thought to herself, while watching the scene between Jack and the gentle-bot. ‘Since when is Jack such a grateful and polite boy?’

    “Are we there yet?”
    “No.” Kimiko replied.
    “Are we there yet?”
    “No.” Clay replied.
    “Are we there yet?”
    “Yes.” Raimundo replied.
    “Seriously?”
    “Yes.” They all answered at the same time.

    Finally. After walking for ten whole minutes, the monks arrived at the end of the tunnel and entered another cave.
    The flying flames floated around the place and ten landed on the torches that were hanging on the walls, giving the cave a gloomy sight.
    Kimiko trembled. “Eeeeehhhh…creepy…”

    On the opposite wall were a couple of steps that led to an altar. On the altar was the Mirror of Truth.
    “There it is!” Clay exclaimed.
    “Yay! We found it!” Omi yelled happily.
    Yeah, but… don’t you think this was too easy?” Raimundo replied.

    Suddenly, a hissing sound was heard, and a giant snake appeared from the shadows.
    “You had to ask!” Kimiko said, looking at the beast.
    The snake showed it’s fangs and then attacked the monks. Fortunately, they were too fast for it, and they easily avoided the monster’s attacks.
    “Raimundo, go get the mirror!” Kimiko yelled. “We’ll keep it busy!”
    Rai nodded and ran towards the mirror.

    Jack noticed the light at the end of the tunnel and heard some familiar voices. “Damn it! The Xiaolin Monks are already here!” he exclaimed while giving the blanket back to the gentle-bot. Then he started running towards the light.

    Raimundo was running towards the mirror. “This is going to be so easy!”.

    Jack arrived at the cave and stared wide-eyed at the beast. ‘That snake…’ he thought to himself. Somehow, the giant snake reminded him of something, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on it.
    He came back to reality when Clay gave the snake a punch with the Fist of Tebigong, making the beast hit a wall and fall to the ground. That punch was strong enough to kill a person, but it wasn’t strong enough to even knock the creature out.
    The monster attacked the monks again, and they continued to fight.

    Raimundo stood in front of the mirror, and it started to glow.

    Noticing the glowing mirror, Jack past behind the other monks and ran towards Rai. But he stopped about three metres behind him and looked at the mirror with wide eyes. Wuya, who was floating next to him, did the same thing.

    Raimundo had to cover his eyes because of the glow, but when it faded, he looked back at it and stared in astonishment at what he saw.
    The first person he could see was himself holding Kimikos panties, and behind him were two figures. One was easy to guess. It was Wuya in her human form, looking happily at a picture she was holding.

    Next to her was another person. A girl. A 15-year-old girl, with skin as white as snow and hair and eyes as red as blood, that was staring at Raimundo via the mirror. She was wearing a long black dress and high-heeled shoes, also in black.

    Her red hair was shorter in the back of hear head, and as it went towards the front, it would get longer. But there’s one thing that really catches Rai’s attention: the girl was sad. Her sad eyes met his and a pearl-like tear rolled down her right cheek.

    Raimundo felt sorry for the teenage girl. He whished to get into the mirror and comfort her. He wanted to make her feel better. But when he turns around, he only sees Wuya in her ghostly form and Jack Spicer standing next to her. They were both staring wide-eyed at the mirror.

    Raimundo could only give Jack a shocked stare. He didn’t know what to say to him. He almost could talk because of what he saw.
    But when he finally was going to say something, the only thing that came out of his mouth was “Look out!”

    Jack turned around and saw the giant snake preparing to attack him. He put his arms in front of his face. Suddenly he felt an arm wrapping around his waist and pulling him to the side. Wuya also avoided the monster’s attack.

    The snake failed at the attack and hit the mirror, breaking it. The creature hissed in pain while it’s body slowly transformed into dust.

    “What in bloody hell was that?” Wuya asked Jack. He understood that she was referring to what they saw in the mirror.
    “I’ll explain it to you later…” Raimundo heard Jack replying almost silently. But he noticed a slight difference in Jack’s voice. It sounded like Raimundo had a young woman next to him.

    Suddenly he feels Jack getting up and running away from him, with Wuya by his side. He quickly gets up and looks at the escaping villains.
    “Hey wait…” he yelled. When he was about to run after them, he stepped on something. He raised his leg and noticed that he stepped on a black collar. He picked it up and concluded that it belonged to Jack.

    When he went to meet the other monks, everything started shaking.
    “This place’s gonna fall apart!” Clay exclaimed.
    “We must leave at this instant!” Omi replied.
    They all ran out of the cave and threw the tunnel as fast as they could.

    Dojo was waiting for them outside the cave. “Quickly! Jack Spicer’s running away!” the dragon yelled.
    “Leave him…” Rai replied.
    “What?!” the other monks stared at Raimundo.
    “He doesn’t have the mirror, so why bother?”
    After thinking about it, they all agreed to leave Jack Spicer alone.


    Back at the Xiaolin Temple…

    All the monks were asleep, except for one, and that one was Raimundo. He was sitting on his bed, holding Jack’s collar. He stared at it for a while and the looked ou the window. He couldn’t forget about her. He couldn’t forget the girl he saw in the mirror. And he couldn’t forget the fact that that beautiful girl was actually Jack Spicer.

    “I can’t just sit here doing nothing! I have to talk to him…” Raimundo said to himself. He grabbed a coat and ran towards the temple doors. He was intent to talk to Jack (or at least give him back his collar). He opened the huge doors and ran towards the Spicer Mansion.

    Raimundo wasn’t the only one awake. An old man watched as he past the temple doors. He had a little dragon around his shoulders. The dragon was also staring at Rai.

    “Aren’t you going to stop him, Master Fung?” the dragon asked.
    “No, Dojo” Master Fung replied in his calm voice “we’re not allowed to stop Raimundo from getting some answers to his questions.”
    “How do you know he’s looking for answers?”
    “There’s something in that collar that intrigues him…The fact that he was constantly staring at it told me so…Where did he get it?”
    “I think he found it on the floor inside the cave where the Mirror of Truth was.” Dojo answered.

    Master Fung looked at Dojo an then back at the window. “I want you to follow him.”
    “W-what?!”
    “I need you to find out where is Raimundo going, who will he be meeting and what will they talk about. When you come back, meet me in the meditating room.”
    “But…”
    “And don’t let Raimundo see you.”
    “Oh, all right…I’ll do it…but I won’t like it!” Dojo replied, leaving the temple to follow Raimundo.
