About This Interactive
The owner of this Interactive Story begins with this information and guidance:
Story:

Tara is a thirteen-year-old girl who lives in Atlanta, Georgia. She lives with her mother, Mary, and sister, Julia, as her parents recently broke up and her mother got the parenting rights. Her mother had recently received a huge science grant and has begun experimenting with cloning technology. While chasing her pet cat, she accidentally clones herself. Not knowing what she has done, she leaves the room before her clone can materialize. As the new Tara wakes up, she realizes she is somewhat smaller than her original counterpart. How she will react is up to you...

++++++++++++++++++++

Characters:

Tara - 13 years old. Main character. Has green eyes and brown hair, wears a black t-shirt, grey jeans and white sneakers. Generally quiet, interested in science and carries a camera with her at all times. Enjoys weekends and playing with her cat. Dislikes being tickled by her sister and being interrupted.
Mary - 36 years old. Tara's mother. Has brown eyes and brown hair, wears a red shirt, brown trousers and white women shoes. Cares for her children, works as a scientist and has a fear of insects. Devoted to her work, but sometimes too much. Usually tired or dazed in the morning.
Julia - 17 years old. Tara's older sister. Has green eyes and brown hair, wears a green tank-top, blue jeans and black sneakers. Invites her friends around often, enjoys being older than Tara and always has headphones with her. Known to wiggle her toes to tickle her sister. Rebellious attitude.
Bell - The family cat. Orange fur and fully domesticated. Generally playful (especially with insects), but can get hungry easily.
Teri - The clone of Tara. She is exactly like her, but is reduced in size by the machine she is produced by. Her different size may make her act differently than usually (more cautious, etc).

Rules:

-Keep things clean. Don't stray into sex and vulgar stuff like that.
-Stuff to do with feet or vore is fine, but don't go too far.
-No toilet stuff. That's just sick.
-Foot odour detail is alright, but don't push it.
-Killing Teri IS allowed (both accidental or intentional), but when she dies, she is remade by the cloning machine.
-The story CAN be ended, but don't kill Tara. Teri can be killed.
-You can use the POV of any character, but try to focus on Tara's clone(s).
-The machine can have other unintended side-effects.

++++++++++++++++++++

Morals:

In chapters when Tara is aware of her small clone's existence, you may notice brackets saying whether it makes her good, neutral or evil.
GOOD - Tara will be kind and gentle with Teri. She will protect her from threats, help with her problems and treat her like a human being. Tara will also think of her as a new best friend.
NEUTRAL - Tara will be authoritative and judgmental. She will usually consider Teri as a pet and not equal. She will usually ask Teri to perform services for her, such as getting her food and drink or giving her foot rubs.
EVIL - Tara will be powerful and dominant. She will consider Teri as sub-human and as a pest or slave. She will often enjoy ruling her clone or even killing her and producing more clones to rule or kill.

++++++++++++++++++++

Endings:

Official endings (the ones by me) will having a rating system at the end. It will determine how you acted up to that point. For example, if you made a lot of GOOD options, the ending will reflect this and you will receive a rank to determine this.
Ranks are as follows:

Benevolent One - Every choice was a GOOD choice.
Caring Guardian - Every choice was either GOOD or NEUTRAL, majority being GOOD.
Merciful Leader - Every choice was either GOOD or NEUTRAL, majority being NEUTRAL.
Great Judge - Every choice was a NEUTRAL choice.
Strict Authority - Every choice was either EVIL or NEUTRAL, majority being NEUTRAL.
Vengeful Force - Every choice was either EVIL or NEUTRAL, majority being EVIL.
Destructive One - Every choice was a EVIL choice.

Featured Writers:

Luigi P. - This time he was first. Thanks for your continued support and interest, plus a great sense of humor. The sort of guy you would buy a beer for at the pub.
Dr. Manhatten - Jesus, this guy is like a walking dictionary. Brilliantly written chapters and great vocabulary. Very descriptive and fantasy-styled way of writing as well.
Rainman1131 - This guy has some great writing talent - more literal than Dr. Manhatten's while still classing as 'brilliant'. Knows how to keep a story going well.

Featured Chapters:

"Death in the Kitchen" by Rainman1131 - Holy hell, this is like a horror! Seriously, this made me shiver all the way through. Very morbid and while not what I was aiming for with the interactive, Rainman has again moved the story in an unexpected but interesting direction.
"Intuitive Bonding" by Dr. Manhatten - Well, it's just fitting. This is what I wanted for the interactive; some good character development and narrative. Tara is caring, her mother is not so much and Teri is completely helpless yet soothed by the original Tara. Charming and a shining example.
