jeez! I was poping these out like crazy one night then...
poof!
I'm not
let's see if I can get through this,
I have an idea
but I'm even less sure of where I'm going than usual!
but I'm glad I spaced the uploads!
If I didn't, you guys would be left at that cliff hanger for a week!
actually,
I don't know how long it's been :/
and don't get me wrong here! Skeleton King is still evil! most his "Fatherly behaviour" Is acting!
but I'm making a small, tiny, like REALLY small, part of him (No really, I can't express how small! Like HE doesn't even know it's there!) want nova back!
ok?
I don't know,
Maybe some people DO get what I mean
whatever
HEY!
remember a couple chapters back when I was barely writing beginning A/N 's?
yeah...

Skeleton King sat on his throne, with his "daughter" sleeping on his lap, his hand on her head, even though he was evil, he HAD to admit, she was adorable!
But What Nova thought was just a father's loving hand to comfort her, was really Skeleton King sneaking evil into her mind.
"I don't even need to work that hard!" Skeleton King thought "If I do this right, she will be my most loyal minion, and all I have to do is take a stern tone with her!"
And he also knew that he had an 80% chance of SPRX joining him just to be near Nova!
Skeleton King laughed at how easy this was!
then Mandarin walked in, and upon seeing his master, um...cuddling...with Nova, wondered if he'd lost it!
"What do you want?" Skeleton King whispered, so not to wake the creature on his lap, but his point was still made, Mandarin now had renewed fear of his master.
"Well...um...the hyper force is on their way" Mandarin said with fear
Skeleton King just laughed, everything was going according to plan!
he slowly woke the little, yellow monkey on his lap.
"Wh...What?" She said, still a little drowsy
"Mandarin, show her to her room" Skeleton King said
then turned his head to talk to Nova
"I need you to stay in there, ok? Don't come out until me or Mandarin gets you!"
"Ok." She said as she ran off to catch up with Mandarin
as much as Skeleton King wanted to, he couldn't let her fight her friends, not yet, he needed time, if he were to send her now, she would be torn between sides, she might snap out of it, and he would lose control.
after Nova had left, Skeleton King went to hes favorite pass time lately, remembering his human life to find weaknesses of the hyper force that he can exploit
he got flashes of what he had been suspecting for a long time now
him erasing some of his own memories
as the Alchemist, he didn't want himself to know the weaknesses of the only team that could stop himself, so he used magic and science to erase memories, it pained him yes, but it had to be done.
Skeleton King laughed
"Too bad it was such a feeble attempt" He said out loud
...
Nova followed Mandarin to a small hallway that had 6 rooms, Mandarin took her to the first one on the left,
it was yellow with pink trim, Nova was surprised by Skeleton King's knowledge of her likes and dislikes
Skeleton King had remembered everything he could about Nova, and asked Mandarin what he knew, the happier she was, the easier this would be, he made her her dream room, and based it off her room before he turned evil.
Nova turned to thank Mandarin, but he was gone
"I wounder what his room looks like" She innocently wondered, then she went out into the hall
6 rooms
which one?
"Just have to check them all" Nova said with a happy smirk she wanted to see all the rooms anyway
She went into the room next to her's
It was red with white and black details and was only half furnished.
the color scheme looked familiar to Nova, but she decided to ignore the feeling and keep exploring.
she went to the room across from her's
It was green, with a lighter green for details and was empty
this too looked familiar.
Nova went to the room next door to this room
She found a blue room with silver details, this one also was empty.
"What are these for?" Nova asked as she went toward the last room on the left
Black with magenta details, empty too
Nova was still wondering where she'd seen these color schemes while she walked into the last room
then stopped as she remembered her original intent after seeing a meditating Mandarin, his room
orange with light blue details, fully furnished.
"Nova? What are you doing here? GO BACK TO YOUR ROOM AND DON'T COME OUT!" Mandarin yelled
then Nova went running to her room.
She looked around
"wait, shouldn't there be a punching bag?" Nova thought "I just got here, what make me think that ther-"
then Nova remembered where she got that idea, her old room
this also brought back the memory of what seemed so familiar about the rooms
"SPRX, Otto, Gibson, Antauri" Nova said out loud as she checked off each room's member
Nova wanted to see SPRX's room again, she didn't know why, maybe just look at it knowing this new info.
Nova walked into the hallway only to freeze when she heard a familiar voice (A/N: How many times am I gonna use that word? -grungekitty)
THERE!
I DID IT!
I WROTE IT!
now, I'm gonna take a nap and think!
WHOA! how long have I been chewing this piece of gum?
it's lost all flavor
and from the taste of it
that happened a while ago
there
new piece
wait...
what happened to that nap
eh screw it!
and the more you guys review
the more I feel like like writing
and the more I write
and the quicker this will be finished
