Od's POV:

"I can't believe this! We help capture real life jewel thieves, & all we get is detention for breaking curfew!" I exclaimed as I sat down in the library the next day.

"I think we got off easy, considering we also broke into a museum." Ulrick said as he sat down next to me.

"No, we didn't! The bad guys did the actual breaking in, we just followed them in…"

"We're just lucky that Alita was able to convince the police to listen to her." Ulrick said. "I don't even want to think about what might have happened if she didn't…"

"Yeh, but I still think this is unfair."

"Quit complaining." Ulrick said. "At lest your current events assignment can be about something you actually experienced."

"…I thought that was due last week?"

"It's a yearlong assignment. It's due every week."

"Oh." I quickly glanced up to make sure Jim was engrossed in his magazine. "Guess I better get started then." I quietly got up & took a seat at one of the computers.

Something caught my eye on the home page.

"Hey, Ulrick, come take a look at this!" I whispered. After making sure Jim wasn't paying any attention, he crept over. He started reading over my shoulder.

The Electric Mayhem Attacked By Fan After Sold Out Concert!

The Electric Mayhem, kicking off their world tour tonight in London, was attacked by one of their fans tonight as they left the stadium. The man, whose identity has not been revealed, jumped the security gate & punched Doctor Teeth in the face before security guards were able to wrestle him to the ground.

The police have the man in custody, but the man is claiming to have been possessed & unable to control his own actions. The police are not able to release any more details at this time.

"Do you know what this means?" I asked.

"That we should see if there's a tour stop in Paris?" Ulrick asked.

"No! Well, yes, but more importantly...XANA is after The Electric Mayhem!"

"Od, how many times do we have to go over this? XANA. Is. Dead."

"This means that the jewel thieves were just a distraction, to lure us into a false sense of security!" I said. I knew it all along. XANA was back.

This time, I'll be able to prove it.


I just want to thank all of you for putting up with me for this long! I know that this isn't exactly the best thing I've ever written, but I've had fun working on it, & I hope you enjoyed it!

Hopefully, I'll see you guys soon! Please review!
