"This is my domain. There is nothing you can do here to stop me." The two closest try to tackle me, but I quickly flip them over my shoulders. I kick the second one on my right hard in the stomach. She coils back a little, holding her stomach. The other two had backed up a little
***
"L-lloyd," she croaks out. Her appearance changes to Nya. I'm holding her off the ground by the throat, both of her hands grasping mine. "P-please." I drop her, terrified at myself. She collaps to the floor, breathing deep. I look around the room.
Zane is laying on the floor, his head in parts. Kai is on the floor, asleep. Cole lays on the floor, holding his stomach. Kai is asleep on the floor, a brouse on his chin. Jay lays near the wall, also asleep.
"No." I shake my head.

"Lloyd."
"She made five of herself! One for each of them. I didn't know who was who. We're lucky enough that Zane was the one that got majorly hurt. Please. Just don't come near me." I back off more from them. Wu grabs her arms, keeping her back. I relax a little. "I'm just too dangerous. She's taking my memories, again. If I say anything aloud... I lose it. Please." They look at me with pity in their eyes. Mom's glaze shifts a little and her eyes grow into alarm.
"Lloyd, look out!"
My reaction when I saw that this was out: *GASP* *inhales sharply* Huuuuhhhhhhhh. . .!! O_O No, I'm not having a spasm. I'm OK. I'm OK. *shuts bedroom door* Must read. Must read now!!
1. "Done many things for" him?? Honey, I believe you mean to him.
2. *swings fists* YEAH!! GET 'ER, LLOYD!! I DON'T CARE IF SHE'S A GIRL, BEAT THE SNOT OUT OF HER, ALL OF THEM!!
3. OH!! Oh, dear. O.O Um. . . *pats Lloyd shoulder awkwardly* False alarm. That's just sick, Rose. Dang, I should have thought of that!

Thank you. I do try my hardest.
Good-er. It's not very often I freak out, is it?
*wheeze* I am, too.
Pretty hard not to remember, at this point. Indeed. That dark, angry, thirsty monster that haunts our pen when writing. . . Why is it always LLOYD?!?
So do you plan out these scenes before you write them, or does the story just flow and jump from your mind onto the screen as you type?

Yes! Slaaaayyy that demon-witch!
*Cough!*
I mean: subdue her rightly, Lloyd!

"Oh yeah? Name one." I look at her despite my pounding head. She looks exactly like the last time I saw her, except she's wearing a simple, white dress and heels. I sit up.
"I was there for you when no one else was, and I always will be."
"After you erased my memories and tricked me."
"What I showed you was a lie, yes, but what I told you was true."
"No."
"Yes. You were told what happened, were you not. About how your father died."
"Yeah. Nya did it. She had to do it!"
"She didn't even try to think of a way to save your father! None of them did!"
"I told them there was no way to! Dad had told me that there was no way to save him. He told me right before I left to go battle Morro!"
"Did he?" A smirk forms on Rose's lips. Her brown hair turns golden. "My appearance shows you how much control I have over you. Thought you would want to know."
"No," I whisper. I can't remember anything about talking to my Dad in the Preeminent. Rose laughs and I stand up.
"Fun, isn't it? Tell me, Lloyd. Tell me about your favorite memory."
"It was when Dad was 'cured'. That was the best day of my life." Her eyes turn from blue to green. "Stop this!"
"Oh, but this is fun. Aren't you having fun, Lloyd?" I cover my mouth before I can say anything else. "Tell me more about the members of your team, Lloyd." I blink and then there are five of her surrounding me. I look at them alarmed.
"No." I shake my head. I didn't want to believe it. One Rose was enough at the moment. All of them smirk, but the one in the middle talks.
"This is my domain. There is nothing you can do here to stop me." The two closest try to tackle me, but I quickly flip them over my shoulders. I kick the second one on my right hard in the stomach. She coils back a little, holding her stomach. The other two had backed up a little
I go up to the next one and punch it square in the jaw, knocking her down. The next one grabs my hand and trys to flip me over. Instead, I jump up, knock her down, and land on her back, pinning her to the floor. I take her head and bang it hard against the floor, knocking her out.
"Is that the best you can do?" The two I fliped over start to come at me again. I grab one and throw it in a random direction. I walk towards the other one. She's smiling as I grab her by the throat.
"L-lloyd," she croaks out. Her appearance changes to Nya. I'm holding her off the ground by the throat, both of her hands grasping mine. "P-please." I drop her, terrified at myself. She collaps to the floor, breathing deep. I look around the room.
Zane is laying on the floor, his head in parts. Kai is on the floor, asleep. Cole lays on the floor, holding his stomach. Kai is asleep on the floor, a brouse on his chin. Jay lays near the wall, also asleep.
"No." I shake my head.
"Oh, yes." Rose appears behind me, holding my shoulders. "It feels great, doesn't it?" I look at her, terrified. She smiles. I watch her transform into my Mom. Wu steps out from behind her.
"Lloyd?" Mom asks, gently. I move away from her, backing up.
"She's in my head. You're not safe," I say. Tears start to fill my eyes. I look back a Nya, who is now asleep and breathing normal. "I did this."
"No, you didn't." I look back at Mom. She takes a step towards me.
"No! I could hurt you."
"Lloyd."
"She made five of herself! One for each of them. I didn't know who was who. We're lucky enough that Zane was the one that got majorly hurt. Please. Just don't come near me." I back off more from them. Wu grabs her arms, keeping her back. I relax a little. "I'm just too dangerous. She's taking my memories, again. If I say anything aloud... I lose it. Please." They look at me with pity in their eyes. Mom's glaze shifts a little and her eyes grow into alarm.
"Lloyd, look out!"
Brilliant chapter, K66!!
As I read this, I imagined what Rose would sound like as this scene happens, and now after reading this chapter the voice I imagined kind of scares me.
3. Yeah... She's evil now... Remember? It comes with that Dark Side we never talk about. I
You said it.

*Pats you on the back.*
Oh just wait until the next part.
Brick, Tigress. That thing haunts me everyday. I "two into" it's feelings every now and then for parts like this. There are times, I get really into writing that I feel like I can actually do those things irl. Thankfully I can't. I'm just gonna say that if I ever get a mind-controlling super power.... Let's just be glad I don't, shall we. He just happens to be my main character. I'm sorry!
Uh... Little bit of both. I write/type, which causes the flow of the story, then I rewrite/edit, which changes the scene some. I rewrite this... three times. I think.
* * * AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The scream is so loud and painful, I end up doubling over. I cover my ears and close my eyes, wincing. The scream is all I hear. It sounds high-pitched and is getting louder. I'm not even sure if I'm screaming. It hurts my ears and my head. * *
* * * "There are two heat signatures in the hallway. One is the form of a snake."
"They're here," says Mom.
1. *slaps hand over mouth* Oops! I'm so sorry! That was probably me when I saw that K66 had updated her story!
2. O_O UH-OH.
Great job, K66! I like how you portrayed Jay's more easy-going nature while Kai was a bit harder to convince, and Lloyd's relationship with Wu and Misako is well-done--plus that rising tension in the last paragraph slipped in perfectly.
OK, now I'm slightly concerned for Rose's welfare-- (Yeah, Tigress, stop talking. XP)

Chapter Twelve: Her Domain:
I duck just as Cole's hand flies over my head, barely missing me. He had snuck around and behind me.
"Punch me in the gut again! I dare you!" I duck from another punch.
"Cole, stop!" Wu says. Cole obeys but stares at me with an angry look. I swallow.
"Cole. It's me." I put my hands up innocently.
"Prove it. Tell me something only Lloyd would know."
"No!" Mom exclaims.
"One time I washed Zane's outfit and turned it pink. It was the same day I put hot sauce in your chili." Just as I finish saying it, the memory is gone.
"It's really him, Cole," Mom says.
"Yeah. Well, I still don't believe it." I look over at Kai. Oh no.
"Kai. Please," I say.
"No. What is Zane?"
"A nindroid."
"Who killed the Great Devourer?"
"Lord Garmadon."
"Who was the ghost that possessed you?"
"Morro."
"What is the name of the person who hosted the Tournament of Elements?"
"Chen." I close my eyes and take a deep breath.
"That's enough," Mom says. "Lloyd, you are not allowed to answer anymore questions. Kai. Come here." I look over at Nya for a third time. I did that. No wonder he's mad. I let out a sigh.
"Lloyd," Rose says in a sing-song voice. Her voice sounds a little deeper. I look around, searching for her. I spin on circles, but can't see her. The room is slowly going black.
"Where are you?!" I yell. I stop and collapse. I barely see Mom through the black color that everything is fading to. She's hurry towards me, reaching for me, but is gone a moment later. I close my eyes, not wanting the tears to leave.
"I thought you would want to see the wonderful progress we're making." I open them to see Rose standing before me. Her hair is curly, her new emerald eyes have a sparkle to them, and she's wearing a green ninja outfit. My ninja outfit. "What do you think?" She smiles.
"I think... you're a monster that won’t win." She winks. I've had enough. I stand up and grab her. I throw her to the ground in pin her there. I put my hands to her neck.
"Lloyd! No!" I see in horror that I am on top of my Mom. I hadn't started squeezing yet, mostly because Kai and Cold are holding me back. I stop struggling, letting them pull me off of her. Wu walks over to check on her. I look down at my hands again.
"No," I mumble.
“You see, Lloyd,” Rose says, now on my left where Cole was. “Attack me, and you attack them.” Wu grabs my chin and has me look at him. He study’s my face. I try to look past him at Mom.
“His eyes are black again,” Wu states. What? He turns into Rose.
“I don’t hear you spilling your guts, and I’m getting impatient. Start talking.” I look around. Jay is checking on Nya and Kai and Cole are still holding on to me. Thankfully Wu is back to normal now.
“Don’t let go,” I tell Kai and Cole. They nod. “Alright, Rose. Give me your worse.” I swallow as boiling anger starts to run through my veins. Wu turns into a smiling Rose again. I start breathing deep, wanting to tackle her. I try to fight against the pull of the two Roses holding me back. I yell and I scream. I kick and thrash, but the two holding me don’t let up. I yell some more out of frustration.
“Annoying, isn’t it,” she says. “To be so close but can’t lay a hand on the one you wish to hurt.”
“Annoyance? That’s your best shot?” I muster a laugh despite the fact that she is making me mad. She gives me a mad smile.
“I am so glad you are finally enjoying this. ”
“You are a coward. Why not fight me like a real... person.” She laughs.
“Oh I will. When you’re on my side again.” The Roses fade back into the people they should be. I start to calm down a little.
“Lloyd?” Jay asks. He walks around me to see my face. Somethings wrong, though. I’m not calming down fully.
“Lloyd. It’s alright.” My Mom is on my left, next to Cole. She’s alright. She’s alright. Wu shakes his head.
“His eyes aren’t normal. She still has him,” Wu says. I start to feel anger towards them again. I yell in frustration. “Jay. Go try to fix what you can of Zane.” Jay nods and walks off behind me.
“You won’t feel it anymore, if you tell me about them,” I hear. I shake my head. “Don’t you want to forget this day? Tell me about your Mother.” I try to fight the urge to sopesk, but it hurts the more I resist. I scream.
“Her name is Misako.” I breath deep.
“Lloyd?” Mom asks.
“And?” Rose says, sounding tickled at the fact that I’m spilling my life story. I take a deep breath.
“She is vey sweet and kind.” Another deep breath. “I love her.” Just like that, I begin to forget the feeling of that love. I begin to forget how sweet and kind she is and what her name is. I relax a little, but not as much as I need.
“Is she in this room?” I try to fight it.
“Lloyd,” Mom says.
“Is she in this room?”
“Yes.” I voice sounds strained. “She is the one that spoke my name.” Tears roll down my eyes, but so I don’t know why. All of the memories of her fade, and soon she is just an older woman to me. I feel more relaxed at the loss of those memories, as if they were holding me back from something and just gave up. No one knows what to do or say.
“That woman hurt you when you were young,” Rose says in my head. I study her. She seems to be trying to say something, but I can’t hear her. “Pay back the favor.” I shake my head.
“No. I will not give in.”
“Fine.” I can hear the frown in her voice. “Tell me about Wu.” I look at him, my breaths becoming deeper again.
“He’s my Uncle.”
“Now, Jay!” Something white flies over my head. We catches it and ties it around my mouth. He created a gag from Zane’s suit! Sweat beats down my neck and cheeks. I blink and shake my head, trying to shake her out. I form my hands into fists and scream in the gag. I look at the woman, unable to show anything besides the hate Rose is making me feel. I look around in front of me.
“I don’t think that helped him any,” Jay says.
“Just focus on Zane,” Wu says. Then I relax. Like... completely relax. Wu and the lady eye each other. I close my eyes and see Rose. Our facial features are completely the same, now. Except for the angry look on her face.
“It’s like I said. You won’t win,” I say.
“Oh but just wait. They’ll have bigger problems in a minute.”
“What?” I stand up. “What’s coming?” She smirks.
“This was never the snake’s plan.” She laughs as I wake up. Pythor. She has Pythor. I look at the woman. Against her better will, she takes off my gag.
“She’s got Pythor! I’m certain of it!” Then, the memory fades. Wu puts the gag over my mouth again. Wu and the woman start to walk away. My memory is getting worse. Anything I say, anything at all, fades away.
“Hey. Do we have to keep holding him?” Kai asks. Wu looks back at us.
“Tie him up to a chair.”
“I’ll get some rope.” I try to look around Kai. Nya gets up, walks in front of me and bends down. She whispers to me, brushing my hair out of my eyes. “I know you didn’t do it, but you probably blame yourself. I just wanted you to know I forgive you.” She kisses my forehead and walks out of the room. Tears start welling up in my eyes again.
I don’t look at her when she comes back. Kai and Cole move me into a chair and tie me into it. The deep breaths start up again. Nya pulls up a chair and sits next to me. I can see Jay in the position I’m in. All of Zane’s parts are in his head. Jay is tightening some loose screws. He flips the on switch, closing his head back up and his chest area. His eyes flash on, and he sits up.
“Wha... what happened?” Jay let’s out a sigh of relief.
“Zane’s fixed. For the most part.” He says the last part quieter. “Lloyd went on a rampage. Remember?” Zane’s eyes land on me.
“Yes. He flipped me over.” I look away. I bite down on the gag and form my hands into fists. I look down and notice my feet aren't tied and that I could easily escape these ropes if I tried. However Nya was right here next to me. She looking at Jay and Zane. I look at her for a moment, debating.
No. I shake my head. It's just what she wants.
"And what's wrong with what I want Lloyd?" I blink. That didn't come from my head. I look at Nya and see that her attention is on the door. Against my better judgement, I look. Rose is standing in the doorway with Pythor standing next to her.

*finally breathes smoothly*
wat So I'm not the only one!! Creepily, the characters I typically relate to the most are the villains -- I can just feel myself feeding on their anger and bitterness. . . O.O With that in mind, I'm glad you can't, either. I can't even imagine the mayhem that would take place should I gain mind-powers. O_O I've seen roadkill treated better than this kid.
So you're kind of willy-nilly, but you go back and edit the parts to make sure it's still in line with what you're planning. Interesting.
