Same night

Life is hard, but if you smile, then you make everyone think you're indestructible. I wasn't born to the name Lovely, but it fits me. I was born to a name that was given to others, and although I love it, I will not show the vulnerability that comes with it. When I am Lovely, I am indestructible and reliable. I push forward. I become the beacon of hope when I am Lovely. She's strong and powerful.

Bobbi is all of that, but she's human. She likes to sit in conners and cry. She wants to face the pain with a warm imbrue and a broken heart. Emotions make you weak, and people are liabilities, and since I have too many obligations, I will just have to hide my feelings. So I choose to be Lovely always and hopefully one day in the future when everything is calm. I can sit back and finally become the Bobbi my mother intended for me to be.

I was walking to Duc's house, looking at the stars when I stumbled over something. It caused me to fall into something wet. I quickly got up and looked at my hands. "Is this blood?" I asked myself, and once I looked down, it was Augustus's body.

I quickly grabbed his body and gently flipped him over. I looked at his chest, and they carved an L, K, and D on top of each other. I looked at his mouth, and a note was inside of it. I quickly pulled the note out.

"If you don't want to be our King Lovely, then everyone you love will Die. LKD! LET THE GAMES BEGIN! Did you like Duc?"  - 19M

I looked down at the note and gently laid Augustus down as I sped to Duc's house. I heard him scream once I got to the door, and I rushed in. I quickly pulled out my gun and shot the three 19 members that were sent to collect him.

"Lovely, thank you." He said, and I began crying. Duc walked up to me and held me. "No time to cry, I have to save everyone," I said, and he held me tighter. "Tarzan can protect them. You need to rest." Duc said, and I pushed him, but he held on tighter.

This was the first time since I got these powers that I felt weak. "Give me a good reason we have to save them, and we'll go," Duc said, and I inhaled while still crying. "They killed Augustus tonight, and they wanted you also they wrote me," I said, handing him the note. Once Duc read the note, he grabbed his weapons, and we head back to the house with me carrying Augustus.

Once we made it on the block, four 19 members were standing waiting on us. "You wished for all of this the day you turned us down, but just know. What the eyes can't see is always the worst thing. Tonight Knight takes bishop, rook, and your Queen." They said, and I sat Augustus's body down on a car nearby. Duc looked at them then me and I could tell he was so confused.

"Let's make a deal," I said, and Duc looked at me, shocked. "I don't know what they're saying, but Lovely, you can't do this!" He said, and I inhaled. "Lovely think what are you doing?" He asked, and I inhaled again. "I'm taking command," I said, and all the 19 came from the shadows. It was so many of them thousands, no millions. "TAKE COMMAND!" They screamed, and I closed my eyes.

"TAKE COMMAND! LOVELY TAKE COMMAND!" They screamed, and it echoed through the neighborhood.
