Jeremy asked "Liz, Aelita how are you two doing?" trying getting an update from them

Aelita and Liz were about twenty yards from the tower said "So far so good Jeremy, Either Xanatos isn't paying attention or he's waiting for the right moment"

Jeremy finished her sentence "to spring a trap there two Krabs hiding behind those Rock Formations in front of you ready to strike"

Aelita said "Thanks for the info Jeremy"

Liz said "Krabs?"

Aelita said "A XANA Monster that has a crab-like appearance their weakspot in on the top of their shell but they are tall about 6 feet high

Liz said "oh…"

Jeremy said "Just watch out for their three way laser and charge shots. You're be fine"

Liz said "Okay I can do this"

Aelita said "Don't worry Odd loves to blast them" She looked over to see Kat and Odd fighting "If he would stop playing cat and mouse he could help us"

Jeremy shouted "ODD"

Odd said "Be with you in a moment Jeremy" as he continued to fend off Kat

Kat finally managed to get Odd Cat ears and gave them a hard yank

Odd said "Yow! Darn it Kat I said to knock it off."

Kat giggled

Jeremy sighed "Kat don't make me come in there and shock you"

Kat said "Oh I'm just having fun Jeremy"

Jeremy sighed "Liz and Aelita need your help Odd they got two Krabs waiting to take shots at them if they get any closer to the tower and you know Ulrich and Yumi are having a hard time with that Snake."

Odd said "No problem Jeremy but ah you ever figure out how to transmit me some Tartar Sauce"

Jeremy said "I'm still working on that Odd"

Odd said "Oh that okay. I like crabcakes plain sometimes. He ran toward Liz and Aelita"

Back in the Lab the elevator opened to show Ulrich and Yumi panting slightly but alright

Jeremy turned and said "Guys what happened to the snake"

Ulrich said "Your Contact is taking care of it"

Jeremy said "What" and turned on the view screen

The Snake was tied up in knots

A guy in a causal outfit was wiping his hands together and smirked "That ought ta hold you together for a bit" He turned to the camera "Hey Lyoko Warriors don't mind me I'm just wrapping thing up here."

The snake hissed and undid itself by phasing out of the knots

The guy turned and said "Oh man this guy tougher then a pair of leather shoes. Excuse me for a minute while I find my skinning tools" and then went off the screen

Meanwhile back on Lyoko Odd was having a little trouble with his crab cakes.

"I thought you said there was only two of them Jeremy!" Odd shouted as he climbed up a nearby rock to dodge blasts from the Krabs.

Jeremy looked at the screen and saw that there were actually four of them and a couple of hornets. "I didn't see the others until now Odd"

Aelita was dodging blast while Kat was using her fox like skills to climb up a rock and use her bow to whack hornets out of the sky. She took all of them down using this method

Liz held up her sword to block a laser attack and her right hand glowed transmitting energy into the sword. "What the" she said

A fireball shot out of her sword causing Liz to fall back from the recoil and hit a Krab front legs deleting them

Aelita slid in front of Liz and charged a sphere in her hands and said "Energy Field" while firing it

The sphere hit the Krab and made it shatter

Aelita held out her hand and Liz took it being helped up

Odd climbed onto another Krab, which tried to shake him off, but then it exploded when Odd shot a laser arrow into it.

Liz exhale "Whoo…" She said "This is tougher then I thought it would be"

A yellow blur shot past and shot into the air "Yeah!" a male voice shouted as he landed on a crab and stabs a sword into it "Impact"

Aelita said "It's Ulrich!"

The third Krab shook and shattered as Ulrich jumped off it and onto another one "Impact" he shouted as he stabbed that one too

The fourth crab shattered

Yumi ran in and said "Hey did we get them all"

Aelita said "Ulrich got the last two now it on to the..." She noticed something "Uh Jeremy the tower is activated right"

Jeremy suddenly appeared on Lyoko "Actually that now wrong when the final monster went down the tower deactivated itself"

Yumi said "It did?"

Kat said "So that was fun what's next"

Xanatos walked in with an evil grin on his face "I'm next"

Yumi said "You must be Xanatos"

Xanatos said "That's right" he chuckled "So how you enjoy the action for a change from your normal boring life"

Odd said "well actually to tell you the truth it felt good to sink my paws into some crab cakes"

Xanatos said "That's good to hear means you guys will be fun to play with."

Kat said "What do you mean by that?"

Aelita said "You activated a tower just to being us here didn't you Xanatos."

Xanatos nodded "That's right, you know this place is a lot cooler then the internet. The internet has a ton of rules and regulations while here I can get away with a lot more I can attack the real world if I wanted too and have fun causing terror and panic to humans just like I did now with you guys"

Liz said "So you're doing this for fun"

Xanatos said "Yeah," He smirked "you got a problem with that?"

Ulrich growled "I do."

Xanatos said "That's good Ulrich, because I was hoping I was going to face you in a databattle one on one. You win I won't ever activate another tower ever again but if I win I get to activate 6 towers each month for fun"

Jeremy said "That's like a tower every five days someone bound to figure out that something going on"

Xanatos said "Well then Ulrich best win then and if he's as skilled in the game as he in a direct battle"

Ulrich stepped forward and pulled out his swords "I'll cut you down to size Xanatos"

Xanatos laughed and jumped into the air backward and pulled a flip landing about 24 feet away from Ulrich "Let's the Darkness Flow" He shouted pulling out the Soul Eater Keyblade.

Lines of energy shot through the sand as it was divided into 3 feet squared panels.

An area of 8 by 5 was surrounded by a barrier surrounding Ulrich and Xanatos

Ulrich's First Turn

Xanatos said "I'll give you the pleasure in making the first move

Ulrich said "and I'll take it"

Jeremy pulled up a screen and it showed Ulrich on C1 and Xanatos on C8

Jeremy said "Alright Ulrich you think you can handle a databattle?"

Ulrich said "If Kat can do it so can I. Let me see how about I start off by using Supersprint!"

Ulrich feet moved extremely fast and his Move Rate increased to 5

Jeremy said "That's what I was thinking Ulrich"

Xanatos's First Turn

Xanatos said "Maybe you aren't so quick to action after all but I'm a master at this game so I'll show you how to really start the game"

Xanatos jumped to C5

Kat said "Wow you got to teach me how to jump like that Xanatos"

Xanatos said "I don't give lessons only pain. Nightmare Force!"

A black ring surrounded Ulrich head and he screamed out in pain while collapsing to his knees

Aelita said "Ulrich!"

Ulrich life points dropped to 90 followed by his move rate to 4 and his stab attack points to 20

The black ring faded out and Ulrich was groaning.

Xanatos said "What the matter Ulrich the nightmare too much for ya"

Ulrich stood up slowly and said "just you wait Xanatos no one messes with my head"

Jeremy said "What did he do to you Ulrich"

Ulrich said "he planted a nightmare in my head. I had about a hundred of my dads yelling at me at the same time"

Yumi said "Whoa…"

Jeremy said "It's done a royal number to your stats as well… Your move rate and your attack points have both dropped"

Ulrich said "Great… what else can that attack do"

Jeremy said "beside 10 life points of damage that's it"

Ulrich said "oh… good means I still have 90 right"

Jeremy said "Yeah. It's your turn now"

Ulrich's Second Turn

Ulrich said "Alright I got you now" and he ran to C4 and jumped "Impact" he shouted as he stabbed Xanatos

Xanatos took the hit and stepped backward staying in C5 "Not bad Ulrich but your nightmare effects are showing"

Xanatos's life points fell to 80

Xanatos's second turn

Xanatos posed with his blade said "and unlike your swords my blade has a longer reach so I can hit from a distance"

Kat said "By the way is that the Soul Eater Keyblade from Kingdom Hearts"

Xanatos growled and said "So what if it is."

Kat said "How did you get it?"

Xanatos said "Birthday Present from my Father"

Kat said "Oh you got a nice dad"

Jeremy said "uh Kat his dad is XANA."

Kat made a cute face "Oh right… duh"

Ulrich rolled his eyes "Hey Odd now I know she related to you she about as airheaded as you were before you came to Lyoko"

Odd said "guess it runs in the family" he laughed

Kat gained another vein on her forehead "Airheaded! Why I ought to"

Xanatos growled "Can we get back to the game"

Ulrich said "I believe it's your turn"

Xanatos said "Right" and moved to A5 "How about another round of Nightmare Force"

The dark ring surrounded Ulrich and he flinched as the attack hit again dropping his life points to 80 his move rate to 3 and his attacks points to 10

Jeremy said "Careful Ulrich I'm not sure what happens if your attack points fall to 0"

The guy in causal clothing suddenly appeared and said "If his attack points fall to 0 then his base damage for his attacks will be 0 if no added effects are added to it then he can't do any damage pretty much securing a win for the opponent especially in a one on one match like this"

Jeremy said "You're Guide aren't you"

Guide said "That's right Jeremy so you don't mind if I watch the match with you guys" he pulled out a bucket of popcorn "Popcorn anyone"

Kat said "I'll take some!"

Xanatos said "Hey this isn't a show Spirit Brain this is a battle for Lyoko"

Guide took a handful and passed the bucket to Kat "ah can it Xanatos you know if the Agency heard you were making trouble for humans they come down on you like a ton of bricks" He started snacking on it

Xanatos said "My father said you were the biggest snitch in the entire virtual world"

Guide said "and I'm proud of it. Now get back to the match!"

Ulrich said "It's my turn now"

Ulrich's third turn

Ulrich moved to B5 and used Stab

Xanatos said "Pitiful you don't got much punch when you got a headache"

His life points fell to 70

Ulrich said "I'll figure a way to get my power back"

Xanatos third turn

Xanatos moved to A4 and said "By the time you do this match will be over. Dark Slash!"

Xanatos slashed Ulrich with the Keyblade making an X of flickering data on his chest

Ulrich grunted as his life points fell to 50

Jeremy said "Ulrich You're down to 50 life points"

Ulrich fourth turn

Ulrich said "I can't let him hit me like that too often especially when I'm weakened like this." He moved to B7 "Supersprint!" He ran fast in place again and increased his move rate to 5

Guide said "You know Ulrich that Supersprint ability could be a lot more useful if you knew the Rapid Slice move it would cut anyone down to size

Ulrich said "Great know anyone who would teach me as in right now"

Guide said "I've got a contact who would love to teach his swordsman skills but afraid he stuck in the Internet"

Ulrich said "So much for that we're on Lyoko"

Guide said "Yeah a real shame that Xanatos is slashing you to bits."

Xanatos's Fourth Turn

Xanatos said "and I'll keep doing that." He moved to A7 "Dark Slash!" He slashed Ulrich again making Ulrich life points fall to 20

Jeremy said "Watch it Ulrich one more attack like that and your out"

Ulrich Fifth Turn

Ulrich said "No worries Jeremy I got a plan" He shot down to B2 "Hey Xanatos betcha you can't catch up Supersprint" Ulrich move rate boosted to 7

Xanatos's Fifth Turn

Xanatos grinned "Taunt me all you want Ulrich I can end this in two moves. Which I'll take the first move now" He moved to A4 and said "Nightmare Force"

The ring surrounded Ulrich and made him flinch dropping his life points to 10 his move rate to 6 and his attack points to 0

Xanatos said "Now that you're powerless against me I think I'll savor the victory"

Ulrich Sixth Turn

Ulrich was panting "Jeremy if you got any idea at all now a good time to start talking"

Jeremy said "Sorry Ulrich I can't help."

Guide said "The time for talk is over Ulrich it's time for action and I'll help you out" He pulled out a rulebreaker card but this one was white in color.

Xanatos said "Hey don't ruin a pure match by using a rulebreaker card! That stuff for noobs and cheaters"

Guide said "Well then you dad used two of them last time and the warriors complained when he used them. That must make him a big cheater and noob."

Xanatos growled "You don't talk about my father like that"

Guide said "Tough, you don't respect Central I don't respect your father deal with it. I now intervene by using the Platinum Rulebreaker Card Central's Blessing!" He flipped the card showing a world with a big city on it"

Central's Blessing: Restore Half of target lifepoint and restore lowered stats to the normal levels boosted stats remain the same. Effect: Switches user element to light for two turns

A Z symbol appeared above Ulrich and drops of light rained down on him making him glow with light energy

Ulrich life points increased to 60

His Attack points returned to 30

His Element changed to Light

Ulrich stood up and said "Man that feels good"

Guide said "That ends your turn player but you don't have to worry about Xanatos nightmare force anymore it's can't affect Light Element players

Xanatos said "Damn you Guide you just had to ruin a perfectly good match and I was winning too"

Guide said "Ah quit ya whining Xanatos. You can't handle the light then get out of the game."

Xanatos's Sixth Turn

Xanatos growled "I'll show you even with that card I'll defeat you" He ran at Ulrich

All of a sudden a rifle shot sounds and something sparked making the field flicker

Xanatos noticed this and stopped "What in"

The field faded out

End Databattle

Jeremy said "What just happened?"

Xanatos turned and said "Who shutdown the databattle generator!"

A sniper laser targeted Xanatos in the chest

Guide said "Hey Player I think you're being targeted"

Xanatos moved and a blast just barely missed him "Shit!" He ran and dove behind the tower with more shots shooting it him

Ulrich said "What going on who shooting at Xanatos"

Odd said "Maybe someone who likes target practice"

Xanatos said "Don't think this is over Lyoko Warriors I'll be back!" He jumped into a naviskid like vehicle closed it up and dove into the digital sea.

Guide started laughing and pulled out a radio "Nice shooting Agent you almost had him"

A voice gruffly replied "Almost… he quick on his feet I'll give him that."

Guide said "So monitoring the connection to the outside were ya"

The voice said "Yep… So I take it that ragtag group next to ya is the Lyoko Warriors

Guide said "Yep"

The voice said "hmm… these guys defeated XANA before… huh unbelievable that XANA could be taken down by a bunch of kids oh well I've seen worse."

Jeremy said "We were the only ones who could have taken care of him. No one else believed us."

The voice said "hmm maybe you didn't look hard enough but that okay we weren't looking for you either but now that we know about each other I'll give ya a tip. If your planning on going to the Internet head over to site 01 and look up Clip for some lessons in data battling tell him KC sent ya and he'll give a reduced rate."

Yumi said "Lessons in Databattles?"

The voice continued "If you want to take down XANA this time you're have to first liberate sites that connect to his system then take his main site down but be warned if you're captured don't expect any mercy from him."

Aelita said "Thank you for the tip KC"

KC said "Don't mention it, Aelita"

All just got wide eyed realizing that someone knew about them

KC said "Guide I'll leave you to tell the story and give Kevin my regards tell him I like his plan so far."

Guide said "I'll do that Agent"

KC said "Peace out"
