She removed the knife and continued.
Most people would say just try to fight it off, but that never works because she isn't just controlling what you do she is controlling everything you think and she controls your subconscious. For instance, you could be asleep and killing innocent children.
She still lives with Jackson, Jamie, Mary, Mark, and Spot. She lives and acts just as Linda did. She even talks like her. A few months later Merlin broke into an orphanage. She posed as an orphan for three days. Every night she would torture and kill three orphans but she would sit there and enjoy the sound of their screaming before finishing them off. She didn't use the basement or the attic. But she did use the creepy old shed in the middle of the woods. After words she went home. Jackson and Jamie were worried sick, they buried her with affection. Summer came and things started heating up. I'm not just talking about the weather. Linda started getting antsy, moody and frustrated. Until one day she got so mad that she ran out of the house with a large meat cleaver in her hand. Everyone was worried about her until she got home. When she walked through the front door she had blood all over her face and clothes.
Jackson went over to her to see if it was hers, but it wasn't. He started to ask questions. Like where she went and whose blood was that. The type of questions that should be asked if you were to walk in your front door with a knife in your hand and blood on your face.
Jackson tried to help cover it up not knowing that she already has. He was worried that she would need counseling. But she was clearly not fine considering what happened. That didn't stop him from talking to a counselor. He went home and had a talk with Merlin. She didn't take it very well she ran out of the room grabbed a knife and left she didn't come back until the next day. This time she didn't have any blood on her, but she did have a severed head in her hand. She chased Jackson and Jamie into the bathroom with the knife. Jackson got away, but Jamie wasn't so lucky. She was stabbed twenty-three times. Linda didn't stop there she went after Mary and Mark. Something happened to them that is beyond torture. Linda grabbed an axe and went downstairs. Mary was first merlin cut the under parts of her toes, then to her calf's, then the back of her knees. Same with Mark. She sat there and waited until they lost consciousness. Someone came along and found them. He was a cop, Linda got in the back of his car. When he got back in the car he didn't realize that she was in there until he got home.
She ended up living with another family the two parents Mikey and Janet and their two kids Lavender and Joseph. Their parents were cops and the two kids were in high school and going to college.
She lived with that family until she was sixteen. The summer after her birthday she left with a knife and never came back. The family went looking for her but she was never found. Until about three months later. She was found in Colorado laying in a ditch. Death within grasp. She wasn't possessed by Lexie anymore. Linda has no clue is to what happened to her parents or what happened when she was possessed. No one ever told her. She never gave them the chance. A month later she found out everything, and cut her arm and wrote Lexie in blood on the wall. She then committed suicide. She hung herself in the closet.
Lexie went back into a different dolls body and continued to torture and kill people. She broke into some one's house and acted like a doll during the day. But every morning she was in a different place whether it's on the end of the bed, or on the edge of the dresser. Even though that's not where she was before. No one ever thought twice about it until the mother, Ashley woke up to her husband Jim bleeding out all over the bed. Their two kids Charlie and Megan ran in there only to find the doll with blood all over her and a knife in her hand. The kids took the doll to the roof, stuffed it with firecrackers lit the fuse and threw it. The doll was halfway to the ground when they went off. When they went down to clean up the mess. When they got down there, their nothing was there. They thought it had melted but it didn't. Somehow Lexie had put herself back together and hid under the house. She came back inside in the middle of the night. She went to Megan's room and sat there waiting for her chance. The cops were there for three in a half hours.
She had that chance at about two-thirty. She hopped on to the bed and slit Megan's throat. Without hesitation she moved on to Charlie, who wasn't in bed, he was on the floor. That made Lexie's job so much easier, accept she didn't like things to be easy. She woke Charlie up and said "RUN" he shot up and ran to the door. He ran downstairs and to the living room. Lexie was enjoying this, she chased him all the way to the park three blocks away. She finally caught up with him. She happily killed him slowly and painfully. Lexie had to drag him back to his room, she put him back on the floor next to his bed. She hid his entire body except for the back of his head. When Ashley went to wake him up, she saw he was on the floor.
