The next morning, when Lloyd woke up he didn't know why but he didn't feel quite like himself. He slowly got out of bed, and went to the bathroom. He showered, brushed his teeth, shaved, and got dressed.
When he got out of the bathroom, he saw that Harumi was awake.
"Morning, Lloyd." she greeted.
"Morning." he grumbled.
That surprised Harumi, Lloyd never greeted her like that before.
"Maybe he just got up on the wrong side of the bed." she thought.
And she went to the bathroom to get cleaned up.
At breakfast, the family sat together eating.
"So Lloyd, how're you feeling today?" Misako asked.
"Fine." he answered sharply.
"Uh, Lloyd are you sure you're okay?" wondered Harumi.
Her husband wasn't acting like himself.
"I said I'm fine."
Then he got up, and took his plate to the kitchen. This surprised not only Harumi, but Misako and Lydia too.
"Mommy, what's wrong with Daddy?" Lydia wanted to know.
"I don't know, sweetie."
"Perhaps he just got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning." suggested Misako.
After everyone was finished with breakfast, it was time for Lydia to get to school.
"Come on, Lydia, let's go." Lloyd told her.
And he grabbed her by the arm, and started dragging her to the door.
"Okay, Daddy. Bye Mommy, bye Grammy." Lydia said.
Once they were out the door, Harumi and Misako looked at each other confused. What had gotten into Lloyd?
The car ride to school was quiet, and when they arrived there Lloyd told her to go inside.
"But Daddy, what about my goodbye kiss?" Lydia asked.
But Lloyd just stared at her coldly. This frightened Lydia, and she quickly got out of the car, and went into school. When she got inside, she found her friends.
"Hi, Lydia." greeted Xavier.
"Hi guys." Lydia replied quietly.
"What's the matter?" wondered Felicia.
Lydia explained her friends about her dad's strange behavior.
"That doesn't sound like Uncle Lloyd." mentioned Nina.
"Maybe he's just not in a good mood today." suggested Eric.
"It's probably nothing, Lydia." said Charlie.
"Yeah, I'm sure he'll be back to his old self later on." Siddie comforted.
That sounded reasonable to Lydia, and they all went to their classes.
All day, Lloyd continued to act like a complete grouch. During training at the monastery, he was very rough with the others. During a spar with Kai, he grabbed his arm, and lifted him over his head, and slammed him hard on the ground.
"Ouch." Kai groaned.
And to the other Ninja's surprise, Lloyd didn't help Kai up, or apologize to Kai for being so rough.
"Lloyd, what's going on with you?" asked Nya.
"What?" he replied.
"You are not acting like yourself today." Zane mentioned.
"The others are right." Master Wu replied.
He went over to his nephew, and put a hand on his shoulder.
"Is everything all right?"
Lloyd shook Wu's hand off him, and said sharply.
"I'm fine!"
Everyone was taken aback.
"Are we done here?"
He didn't even wait for an answer, and stomped away.
"What was that all about?" Cole questioned.
"I don't know but something is definitely wrong with him." Jay answered.
"Hmm." said Wu, he was starting to get suspicious.
As he drove away, Lloyd suddenly felt something, like he just got snapped back into reality.
"W-what's going on with me?" he asked himself.
He decided to take a detour to the park. It was a nice day to be out, the sky was blue and the sun was shining. Lloyd thought this would be a good way to clear his head. So after parking his car in a spot, he got out, and ventured into the park.
He walked along the sidewalk, and tried to think clearly. But all through his mind, he kept thinking about dark things like, thunderstorms, fires, and darkness. Why was he thinking these things, and why did it feel like those thoughts seemed to be giving him some sort of feeling of power?
As he walked on, he came across a group of young teens. When they saw the Green Ninja they happily went over to him, asking him for his autograph, pictures, and to demonstrate his powers. And he did so, but then the dark thoughts began to take over his mind again.
He grew angry and moody, and then stomped away leaving the young teens confused.
"What's up with him?" one of them questioned.
Another just shrugged.
That night at the palace, Lloyd didn't talk to his family. He instead locked himself in a spare room, and stayed there. Harumi, Misako, and Lydia grew very concerned, this wasn't like him at all.
"Mommy, why is Daddy acting like this?" Lydia asked.
"I don't know, sweetie." she told him.
"I'm concerned too, dear. Lloyd's never acted like this before." Misako mentioned.
"Okay, why don't we all go and talk to him maybe we can get to the bottom of this."
In the spare room, Lloyd paced around, trying to get his head together. Along with the dark thoughts, he also began to think about his father, and head his evil laughter. And for some reason that made him feel even more powerful.
But he quickly shook his head.
"Come on, Lloyd. What's wrong with you?" he asked himself.
He looked at himself in a mirror, and saw that he was beginning to sweat, and his hands started trembling. He started to freak out, a little. Just then there was a knock at the door.
"Lloyd?" asked Harumi calmly.
"What!?" he snapped.
"Honey, please listen we're worried about you."
"It's true son, we want to help you." Misako added.
Lloyd then looked at his hands, and saw that they were turning black!
"What?" he breathed.
"Daddy, why are you so angry?" Lydia piped up.
"Don't come in here!" he told them.
The blackness spread from his hands to his arms, and then his face started turning black.
"Please, don't turn us away. Just let us in." Harumi pleaded.
As Lloyd tried to keep calm, he felt sharp pains on his sides. He looked down, and saw things sprouting out from them; and he let out a loud scream. That concerned the three, and using a fighting move she learned, Harumi broke down the door.
Inside, they saw Lloyd with his back turned to them.
"Son?" Misako asked.
"Honey?" questioned Harumi.
"Daddy?" Lydia questioned.
Lloyd turned around, only he didn't look like himself. His skin turned completely black, his eyes changed from green to red, and he had two extra arms! The only thing left of his old self was his blonde hair.
The three screamed in terror, while Lloyd raised all his arms, and blasted his green energy rays at them. They hurried out of the room in terror, while Lloyd in anger destroyed the room with his powers, and then jumped out the window, and off into the night.
That's chapter 4, plz review
