"I'm not crazy!" Jack yelled, pleaded with his parents to listen to him. Jack could see the concern in his mother's eyes and his father... boy, he looked - dare he say it - scared, and his father was not a easily frightened man.

"Sweetheart, we like that you have an imagination but for you to come up with said stories- It's unreal!" His mother was trying to be understanding but the boy genius wasn't having it.

"I can prove it!" Jack cried, desperate to show them. His father nodded, merely humouring the boy if it meant helping him.

"Okay, show us then son. Prove it to us.." Jack grinned, finally, he can show them that this was not a joke.

"Okay, to the basement!" Jack said as he ran straight to the bookcase, his parents sharing a look.

"Honey, the door is-" Jack waved at them to come over.

"I know, under the stairs. But I've made my own lab." His father watched him as the albino pulled out a book that came out so far. The businessman gasped as the bookcase came away from the wall, and opened inwards to reveal a passageway.

"I told you, I had a lab! After you?" Jack gestured, as he waited for his parents to move. They looked at each other and gingerly stepped towards the entrance. Jack followed after them as the descended down the long corridor. They came to a keypad locked door to which Jack entered the code and opened it.

Jack's parent's were amazed as he then turned on a light. Jack grinned at them.

"George..." His mother said to his father, not knowing what else to say.

"I know, Serena." Jack then hollered for his creations.

"Jack-bots! Parental units!" Jack-bots appeared and stood (or floated) in lines and saluted. Robo-Jack came and stood next to Jack and saluted also. George and Serena shrieked at the sight of RJ.

"Oh, don't worry! This is RJ. Or Robo-Jack. Hahaha! I created him, like the Jack-bots!" They looked at their son, horrified. Jack didn't understand.

"What's wrong? They are machines. Look I'll prove it, RJ, may I remove your head please?" The bot nodded and moved over to his master to whom pulled of his head, to show there was no blood and just machinery. But his parents continued to shriek with fear.

"S-son, you are starting to scare us." Jack looked at them, confused was an understatement.

"Why? How?" Jack didn't get it. Serena looked at George with fear and sadness in her eyes.

"George, we saw this coming but we ignored it, the doctors told us-" George shushed her, agreeing silently.

"Son, you need to go see a doctor. There is no laboratory down here. You just opened up a play room we had built for when you were a child, you've always been in here. It's a just room, it's empty now, save for a bed you've put in it. There are no robot's just old toys, toys that you've pulled apart and merely glued back together. There is no 'RoboJack' as you called him, but a dummy to which you've pulled its head off." George explained. Jack shook his head.

"What are you talking about? My Jack-Bots are here! RJ is here! They are right in front of you!" Jack growled as he gave the head back to the robot who placed it back on its shoulders.

"What are you saying? You think I'm crazy?!" His parents look at him with a sad look.

"You need to see a doctor, Jack. This hallucination needs to stop." Jack shook his head at his father's order and thought about his Sheng Gong Wu vault.

"Wait, let me prove it to you!" He then ran to the vault, punching in digits to open the large metal door. He'll prove it that they are just lying, just trying to mess with his head. Once it was open, he reached inside and picked up his favourite Wu.

"Look, this is the Monkey Staff. It allows its user to become a monkey." George and Serena gave each other a look.

"Monkey Staff!" Jack cried out as he was transformed into a monkey and he pranced around the room, swinging from the large cables above his head. Surely now, they'd believe him.

"Son, you are going to the hospital. Now." Jack fell to the floor in a heap, gob smacked at his father. They didn't believe him.

"Jack, now we are worried. We just want the best for you but this is just... You need help, sweet heart." Jack looked up at his Mother.

"I'm not lying! You just watched me!" Serena moved to her son crouching by him. She cupped his cheek, helping him sit up on the floor.

"I believe you that you aren't lying, Jack." Jack smiled at her. "But I can't see what you see. Therefore, it is a hallucination. Your imagination." Jack's smile dropped. Serena hugged her son tightly.

"We love you, sweetheart, but you aren't very well." Jack glared.

"Next, you'll be telling me that being gay is an illness!" George and Serena shook their heads.

"Jack, we've known about that for a while, we aren't bothered by that. In fact we are happy for you." Jack's father nodded to show his support in that regard. "We are bothered about you creating impossible stories!" George yelled trying to get through to his son.

"I'm telling you the truth!" Serena pulled her head closer into Jack's shoulder and stroked his red-dyed locks, much like she did when he was little.

Jack let loose a few tears. So the Heylin-Xiaolin conflict wasn't real, the Wu were just toys, the Monks; were just a figment of his imagination. Jack shook his head; they were wrong. They had to be!

What about Chase? Jack cried harder when thought of the one thousand and a half plus Chinese warlord.

Chase was real! How dare they say that Chase was fake! A dream! His imagination? Chase was perfect! Jack couldn't have made all this up! He couldn't have made Chase up, no one could!

"I'm not crazy... I'm not." Jack chanted through his sobs, his mother rocking him back and forth, hoping to calm her distressed son.

Jack broke down and what he saw next was black. Jack guessed he passed out from the stress.

Okay, what do you guys think? Too corny? Worth reading? Want to find out more?
