Realized a while ago that my fanfic here hit the 100 reviews mark, so thank you everyone! I'll let you know when we hit 200 reviews, so keep reviewing. Warning: the first one-shot of this chapter is yaoi. So if you're not comfortable with malexmale romance, feel free to skip it and move on to the second one-shot.

*Rocky Terrain Pursuit (deleted fan-scene from Darkness Shall Rise)*

Lloyd panted with exhaustion as he hid behind a large rock. He can't believe this is happening. One minute he was playing video games back at the condo. The next, he was trying to escape Skales who pursued him on a motorcycle turned Serpentine-like from Fangpyre venom. He dodged him the best he could until he came to a rocky area just outside the city. Unfortunately, Skales had followed him here.

"You can run, Lloyd," the Hypnobrai called from the other side of the rock, "but you can't hide!" There was then the sound of the motorcycle's engine running before Lloyd heard said vehicle drive off, the sound fading away. He finally let out a sigh of relief.

I ditched him…

"Gotcha!" Lloyd cried out when the Hypnobrai grabbed him with his tail, pinning his arms to his sides. Sneak attack!

"No!" he cried, struggling in his grip. "Let me go!"

"I'm afraid not," the Hypnobrai hissed, bringing the poor boy closer to him and hissing into his ear that it tickled. "I have so much planned for you. I know how fond your father is of you. Well, he's not the only one…Pythor was too." Lloyd opened his eyes and turned to him.

"What?"

"That's right; I saw it in his eyes. That whole I-don't-care-about-Lloyd act was all it was…an act! He loved you like the little brother never had. He even placed a spell sticker on the inside of your old cape that will protect you from harm, like the booby traps in the pyramid and the lava in the Fire Temple. The Generals and I found out ourselves that Anacondrai are known by their power through their sorcery."

"But if you don't like me," Lloyd demanded angrily, "then why didn't you remove the sticker?"

"Because it can only be removed by the Anacondrai who placed it there in the first place alone," Skales answered before giving him an evil grin. "And I never said I never liked you. Remember when I said that your father is not the only one fond of you instead of was?" Lloyd's heart started pounding harder as the blue cobra's tail caressed his chin.

"Oh, you're sick!" he cried with disgust, struggling to get out of his grip again. Skales only chuckled as he gazed into his green eyes, activating his hypnotic gaze.

"I couldn't help myself," he purred seductively as Lloyd started to get woozy. "You…amaze me."

"But…I'm too young for you…" Lloyd answered in a tired voice. "And…I'm a boy…like you…It's just…wrong…"

"Maybe, Lloyd," Skales whispered, bringing his lips closer to his. "But it soon feel—"

THWACKAM! Skales suddenly fell to the side into an unconscious heap, freeing the dazed Lloyd from his grip. Shaking his head to clear it, the boy looked up to see another familiar Serpentine standing over the knocked out one, a police club in his hands.

"Pythor?" The violet Serpentine then turned to him, his angry scowl becoming a gentle frown.

"Lloyd, are you alright?" he asked. As a few police officers hurried over to apprehend Skales, Lloyd immediately recalled what said Hypnobrai told him

"He loved you like the little brother never had." Immediately, Lloyd threw his arms around the taller snake's waist and hugged him.

"I…I thought you were dead!" he cried. "How did you…"

"Same way your uncle survived," Pythor answered, hugging him back. He then turned to one of the officers. "Please keep a close eye on Skales, Commissioner."

"Will do, Pythor," he answered, "and thanks for your help." Pythor then picked the boy up and slithered over to Skales' bike.

"Come along, Lloyd," he said. "I'll take you back to the others."

*Pardon Fangtom's Interruption*

"Oh, Jay," Nya sighed, resting her head onto her boyfriend's shoulder. "I can't believe you did all this for me." Around them, the room was dark with only some scented candles as their main source of light. And on the coffee table in front of the couch they're on were: a bowl of chocolate-covered strawberries; two tall glasses of soda; and a thin vase holding three red roses.

"Only the best for you, my beautiful Samurai," the Blue Ninja replied, looking deeply into her eyes before the two of them fell into a deep kiss…

Suddenly, a light came in as the door to the living room opened, and they pulled apart and looked up to find Fangtom at the doorway, holding a basket of folded laundry in his arms.

"Why are the lights off in here?" he asked, looking around the room in confusion.

"Fangtom, I'm trying to enjoy some alone time with Nya here," Jay whined in annoyance.

"Oh, sorry," the Fangpyre replied with realization. "My bad." He then closed the door to leave them alone again. Jay then rubbed his forehead with a groan.

"I'm never gonna get used to having him a roommate." Nya just giggled before hugging him gently around his neck.

*Nice Save (parody of the opening scene from a Teen Titans episode)*

The summer sun shown high above the dojo as the ninja and Serpentine were enjoying their new pool. The ninja, Nya, and the Serpentine Generals were playing pool volleyball with a beach ball; the ninja were on one team, and Nya and the four Generals were on another team.

Pythor just reclined on a beach chair at the side, sunning himself while wearing his sunglasses. Looking so relaxed and cool when sun-tanning, any girl who passes by him would swoon or giggle at how sexy he looks. A truly relaxing day indeed…

"Pythor, heads up!" Lloyd cried out in fear as the spiked ball started to fly straight for the Serpentine to hit him at full impact. He didn't move a single muscle in his upper body, but he shot his tail up as quickly as a lighting strike to smack the ball right back into the pool…except it didn't hit the water but slammed into Skalidor's gut to knock the wind right out of him.

"Thanks…" he gasped in a higher-pitched voice. "Nice…save…" He then crumbled into the pool, the others wincing with an "Oooooh…"

"I am so not gonna perform CPR," Kai said, holding his hands up in protest.
