"Bravo," Wuya smiled as she clapped her hands, "Very nice."
"I'd call that one of my best works yet," Hannibal laughed.
"Indeed. He seemed so ready to throw his life away…"
"Now, Wuya, let's remember that that was just a subconscious message. It'll nag him in the back of his mind until his goal of destroying Chase is reached…"
"But Jack could never kill Chase! If Omi or the other Xiaolin dragons can't kill him, Jack sure can't."
"Yes, but you see, Chase has some interest in the Xiaolin monks, especially Omi. He has no interest in Jack, however, so if Jack goes all out evil, which I have already arranged for, Chase will have an eternal enemy. He'll spend the ages fighting our little puppet while you and I, my dear, assume our rightful places as rulers of the world."
Wuya laughed hysterically, "Jack would need some massive caffeine boost to give him that kind of stamina…"
Hannibal shook his head, "No, just a healthy dosage of the following:
"One: Rigorous Xiaolin training
"Two: An ego boost from his friends
"Three: Disappointment and rejection in knowing that he can never be a full-fledged Xiaolin Dragon
"And: Four: A nice bowl of Lao-Mang-Lon Soup to ease his restless soul…"
"Oh, that's… uh… Are you sure about creating two Chases?"
"Jack can never be Chase. Chase was a mistake on my part. Besides, with the hatred for him that we will soon engrain, he'll fight that pussy lovin' Chase for the rest of eternity."
"But… What if he finds out about us? He could team up with Chase and destroy us…"
"Find out, perhaps, but teaming up with Chase will be impossible. I've made some modifications to the potion. After Chase trapped me in the Ying-Yang World, I had time to think. A whole dragon bestows courage and knowledge, hence leading to self-will. Reduce the serving of dragon, to simple dragon scales, and obedience is built in.
"You see, Jack won't be a free spirit like Chase, he'll be mine so long as he consumes the potion once a day."
"And if he doesn't?"
"He'll be destroyed. But let's not worry about that right now. I do believe our dear Jack is just waking up from his slumber. He'll be most excited to start his training…"
Wicked laughter filled the air.
Wuya stepped back a bit and chewed on her pristine fingernails. She was beginning to question her loyalties to this psychotic fruit…
