8 years…8 years stuck in this prison of lies. I can't believe I let XANA win. At least he won for only 48 hours. Thank goodness for the fail-safe program. I began to wonder as I settle down for the night here in my cell. I pulled my pink tipped blonde hair from my face, clearing my blue eyes to see the night sky. Just then, a huge white light swallowed up everything in sight. Suddenly, I was back in line, waiting for breakfast. Another return to the past…. Is this a real one? Or is XANA still messing with my mind? I better find out if the supercomputer in back on. I began to speed thru my meal and drank my favorite hot tea. I wonder, if this is real, who would turn on that infernal machine again? Who would risk all of humanity again for a supercomputer? I put my empty tray and still steaming mug into the cleaning bay. Thank goodness I have access to a computer here… If they plan to fight against XANA, I will help them. If they plan to fight with XANA, then they just reawaken their worst nightmare.
"Halt! Are you allowed access to a computer Prisoner?" A Guard asked me as I reached the lab door. "Yes. I am Prisoner number 1101138, Alice Hopper. I have unlimited access and time allowance without supervision. "I told the guard. "Hmmm… very well Alice. Don't forget to go eat lunch today. You looked like a string bean last time you wasted a whole day here." The guard responded to me with a smile on his face as he open the door. "Don't worry Jerry; I won't get you in trouble." I responded with a smile as I entered the lab. I went to my favorite computer in the back of the lab. Ahhh! There it is! My little pet project computer! "I still can't believe that no one but you seems to be able to use this hunk of junk! I mean, look at it! Its 4 towers hooked up into one super configuration. And for what, a video game?" Jerry asked me, scratching his head as I started up the computer. "Well yeah, got to keep on practicing my programing skills. And what better way to practice them that creating a virtual world and some role playing style combat." I told him, trying to hide my nerves. "Well, have fun!" Jerry waved bye as he returned to his post at the door. Too bad it's already been created. Now to get down to business…
Beware the horror you have reawaken onto this world! XANA's evil knows no bounds! He took my life, freedom, family and broke my heart! I refuse to let that happen to anyone else! Someday, I will break free of this prison XANA forced me in. If you plan to fight him, then count me as an ally. But beware, help him and you will find your worst enemy of all time. Know I am watching to see were your allegiance lies. Until I contact you again, Alice Hopper.
Now let's see if it is on. The message would return back to me if it is off, or it will connect and deliver it. IF it is on, I hope adding my name doesn't cause XANA to block the message. I click at the keys and send it to the world of Lyoko. Who knew that the world I help create would cause so much trouble and heartache. I could not think that as I started to look into how to appeal my two life sentences.
(From the editor: Yes, Alice is my own OC I made. This story is from between the prequel and the Teddy bear attack ^_^ That lovely one year span they never talk about… I will try to post a chapter a week. Any comments and questions are always welcomed! ~Xanta Freak)
