Hello everybody! I am proud to say that my writers block has disappeared! Yay! I would have updated this story sooner but I was having some problems while managing my document manager. Anyway, Thanks to all who reviewed! I hope you all like this new chapter! Enjoy!
"AH! Lily, wait!" Jack yelled as he picked up his head quickly from the table. (A/N: Jack and Lily both had the same 'dream' as all of you might know already…squee!)
"Jack? Jack! Finally you are awake!" Wuya said floating over to him. "Did you know that you snore?" she asked. "It was giving me a splitting headache...so I left."
Jack rubbed his eyes. "Wha-what happened?" he asked in a demanding tone.
"You fainted." She said, just so happening to leave the part out where she flew through his head.
"Where's Lily?" he asked gaining consciousness.
"She's at the Xiaolin Temple. You dropped her off there yesterday. Don't you remember?"
"Yeah…I-I do. Wait…did you say yesterday?" he raised his voice. He glanced outside the window, it already dark. He thought of the showdown that they did…the kiss that they shared. He put his fingertips over his lips.
Wuya floated in front of the boy. "Jack…you are a genius!"
Jack's eyes widened. She's NEVER told me that before, he thought. "I know… hence 'Evil Boy Genius'…but what did I do?" he asked plainly.
"Don't you see? With you romancing the Jade Dragon, you can persuade her to join the Heylin side!" Wuya said excited.
Jack looked shocked. "But I thought she wasn't evil?" Jack thought out loud.
"She isn't...but she's not good either. Each of the Dragons has a choice to be good or not. In other words, they're neutral."
Jack stayed quiet. Right! Lily is the Jade Dragon! I remember her from the Ying-Yang World! Yet, I still don't remember why I helped her…I mean; I thought she was pretty but…
"So, Jack! Are you going to do it?"
Jack crossed his arms in thought. "Well…with her help I could rule the world!" he said smiling at the idea. "Okay Wuya…let's go change Lily's mind…" he said rubbing his hands together and snickering evilly.

"Let me just get this straight…You aren't good…but…you're not evil?" Clay asked Lily.
Raimundo snickered, "Heh…just like Jack Spicer. He's just full of hot gas…"
Omi laughed. "Ha ha! You are very funny Raimundo for it is true…Jack Spicer isn't at all evil!"
Lily nodded, "Yep, but I don't think I'll be evil…what's the point?" she offered. Besides power, wealth and anything that your heart desires? A tiny voice in the back of her head whispered. She shook it out. "But just because I'm not evil doesn't mean the other dragons aren't either." She explained.
"Is the Sapphire Dragon evil?" Omi asked, wiping a tear from his eye after laughing.
"Yes, he is. Just because he's a jerk, doesn't mean he isn't evil. But besides him…the other dragons are far from it…I think."
Kimiko looked surprised. "You think? I thought you said your friend, The Moonstone Dragon, wasn't evil!" she yelled.
"Your right. I did say that…but things change…people can change." She said seriously.
She looked up at the dragons; they seemed worried about how this whole predicament would turn out. She sighed. "But she kinda likes the Ruby Dragon and he's not evil so…there's less of a chance of her turning evil!" she said forcing a wide smile to lighten things up.
Omi perked up, "And we can help you if anything turns out wrong!" he offered. "Seven dragon heads are better than one!" he said pointing to his own head.
The other dragons hesitated.
"That's right Omi!" Kimiko said happily.
"True…if anything happens, we'll kick that Sapphire Dragon's behind harder then Bessie kicks when Omi tried to milk her." Clay said with a smile.
Rai and Kim laughed. "That is so true Clay! Way to go!" Rai say giving Clay a high-five.
Omi crossed his arms. "That maybe true…but at least I had discovered the secret to cow-milking! …I am unstoppable!" he said triumphantly with a wide smile.

Jack was hiding in the shadows outside listening to every word they were saying. "What's the point of being evil?" he thought out loud referring to what Lily said earlier. He sighed; "We have a lot of work to do…" he muttered to himself and walked to where the Dragons were sleeping.
Wuya floated behind Jack. She sensed something different about him. Perhaps I have awoken something else other than his memory…perhaps I have reawakened his evil side again! It is for the better, she thought laughing wickedly.
Jack stopped and shushed her. "Do you WANT us to get caught?" he hissed grabbing the Shroud of Shadows. "Shroud of Shadows!" he whispered and disappeared underneath the shroud.

Lily kept on tossing and turning; she couldn't sleep. She sat up and held her head in her hands.
"How am I going to get the other puzzle piece? Jack has it…and I still need the other two!" she whispered. She shivered from the cold; she didn't have her robe top on, just her tank top.
"But…they are…scared of me." She said to herself. "They are afraid that I will turn evil and do horrible things." She sighed. "Omi just said that he will help to make me feel better." She said her hand closing to a fist. "I NEED to get that piece!" she said.
"If you want it so bad…then let's make a proposition…" a voice said from inside the room.
A cloaked figure stepped from out of the shadows.
Lily smirked, "A proposition? I'm surprised that a word that big is even in your vocabulary." She said.
Jack pulled the hood off of his head. "Well what can I say? I am an evil boy genius after all…" he crossed his arms.
"Right, so tell me…why this unexpected visit?" she asked pulling the covers up to her chin.
"Can't I just visit to see you? Do I need a reason?" he asked with an innocent look on his face.
"Yes." Lily said plainly, standing up.
"I wouldn't have figured you an 'all-black person'." Jack said regarding to her black pants.
"I wouldn't have figured you to be so annoying." She teased. "But don't stray from the question…why are you here?"
Jack sighed. "I know that you're the Jade Dragon."
"…And your point is…?" she asked.
He walked a few steps closer to her. "I was just wondering if you wanted to be evil and join me in taking over the world!" he said loudly.
She put her hand to his mouth. "Do you want to wake the others? Keep it down!" she whispered as she removed her hand. She was quiet for a moment. "…why would I want to be evil anyway?" she asked, wondering if he could add anything better than what she had in mind.
"Well…for starters…you would be with me." He said with a sly smile.
Lily felt like blushing, He has a point…, she thought. "And that is supposed to make me feel weak at the knees and say 'yes' to you?" she asked.
"Well…yeah!" he said.
Lily rolled her eyes. "What the ladies man…" she said.
"Then what if I do…this?" he asked pulling her close to him. Wuya said romancing…, he thought.
Lily felt her cheeks grow hot.
"I won't let go until you say yes." He said with a smile. Which I hope takes longer than I want, he thought.
Lily sighed, "I take it you know that I'm not good or evil?" she asked.
He nodded. "Lily…think of it! You and I could rule the world side by side…together!" he said.
"But my friends…"
Jack laughed. "You said yourself that they're only your friends because they are afraid of you…don't you want to rule? To show them whose boss?" he added, loosening his grip on her.
She looked down. "It's true…I have nobody…"
Jack pulled her face up. "No…you have me." He whispered, inches away from her.
Lily smiled. "You're right…And that Sapphire Dragon thinks that he will rule? I doubt it…I will NOT be his ticket to world conquest!" she said putting her hand to his mouth.
Jack's shoulders slumped. I was so close! But his eyes widened. "That Dragon is evil too? WUYA!" he yelled.
Lily cringed. "What did I tell you about yelling?" she said.
Lights from a different room turned on.
"Lily? Are you alright?" a voice that sounded like Kimiko's was heard.
"Quick! We have to get out of here!" she said.
Jack nodded, "Shroud of Shadows!" he said disappearing along with Lily.
So...Jack is evil now, but really evil...or just crazed with power. And it's all Wuya's fault! ...Well...to say the least Jack isn't in my head anymore...he's right here with me! Yup I mangaged to materialize him into a 'not so imaginary' friend! He goes wherever I go! ...Except the ladies' room...Review Please!
K.G.: Review because this chapter is cool dud!
Jack: I think you mean..."dude". You're starting to sound like that cueball Omi.
