In An old abandoned Warehouse

A tall dark figure was alone in his room preparing for tonight. "I trust there weren't any problems with the devirtualiztion." Said a female dark figure in the corner. "There weren't any. You needn't worry about me." He replied. "Go get Drak and Griff for me, and give Link this." He said tossing the figure a peace of paper. "As you wish X.A.N.A." She replied.

10 Minutes Later

Drak came in clutching a chain, which was tied around Griff's neck (he's in his hippogriff form). "Excellent work last night boys." X.A.N.A. complemented. "Thank you X.A.N.A. but we did not do as you asked." Drak said trying to keep his brother under control. "Oh… I don't remember saying anything, I merle said engage Spike and Lance in combat. And you did. You have even shone me the extent of my berserker chips. Although now it seems your brother can't tell friend from foe." X.A.N.A. commented. "Yes well I don't … mean to sound … ungrateful … when I say this … but … he's getting kind of … hard … to control." Drak said as his brother wiped his head and Drak around wildly. Suddenly the thick chain snapped. Griff looked around then his sites landed on X.A.N.A., he charged him at full speed. Sparks and blood flew against the wall.

At The Factory

"Come on Erin quit struggling!" Lance shouted while he tried to get Erin into the elevator. "Hell no!" She replied. He eventually got her in. "Close it before she bolts!" He shouted. "You know I'm going to get you for this Lance." Erin threatened. "What did I do?" He asked. "Well other then this you sent X.A.N.A. my reply that I didn't even write. Oh and I'm going to kill the rest of you for making me take that nasty pill. Now let me go Lance!" She shouted. "Now why would I do that? Uff." He moaned as Erin's elbow made contact with his gut causing him to let go of her. "Cause I would have done that." She answered.

Flash Back

After Lance had sent the E-mail. X.A.N.A. Replied.

Exelent, I'll send someone for you, be at the factory at 5:10. I look forward to our meeting.

X.A.N.A.,

End of Flash back

Erin looked over to Spike who had been quiet the entire time. "That dragon size temper of his is coming out tonight I can feel it." She thought. The elevator doors opened they stepped out into the computer room. "All right Erin your not going to be completely alone, we'll be watching and listening." Jeremy said. "This wouldn't happen to include any other unnecessary contact with X.A.N.A. would it?" She asked. "Of course not we're torturing you enough with the whole kiss thing." Lance replied. Spike growled a little at the very sound of that word. "That's gotta make you feel a little better." Ulrich said. "Well if you feel so confident Ulrich then you kiss him." Erin snapped. "Well it's almost time so Spike sit down." Lance said. Spike did what his brother told him for once and sat down in the chair infront of the computer. Lance took out some handcuffs and hand cuffed Spike's hands to the arms of the chair. "Is this really necessary?" Spike asked. "You know how you get when you get angry." Lance explained. Spike sighed and looked over to Erin. "Be careful." He said with much worry in his voice. Erin just nodded and walked into the elevator with Lance.

In the Elevator

"Here." Lance said handing Erin a gun … her gun. "How did you…" Erin was cut off by Lance's answer. "Jeremy told me to take it when we brought you here. But I think you'll be needing it tonight." He replied speaking in more of a brotherly tone. Erin took the gun and placed it in her inside coat pocket. "When you're with him just think he's someone else." Lance said as the doors opened. "Don't forget if you don't get that kiss it'll be all for not. So … flirt with him."

On the bridge

Erin waited on the bridge for about five minutes when a black car pulled up. A guy about eighteen stepped out in an all leather attire chains wrapped around most of his body, he walked up to her. "Erin? … I presume." He asked. Erin nodded. "And I assume you're the one that is saposed to take me to X.A.N.A.?" She asked. "How do you know I'm not X.A.N.A.?"

Meanwhile

Lance came out of the elevator went over to the computer and started to type. "What are you doing?" Spike asked. "I sent out a small flying camera out when Erin left and I got to get it on-line." Lance replied. Just as he said that a picture came up on the screen. Erin and the guy came up on the screen.

"How do you know I'm not X.A.N.A.?" The guy asked. "Simple, X.A.N.A. wouldn't come near me if he knew Spike might be around." Erin replied. Spike grinned at Erin's reply. "Ah yes the dragon boy. He's been a conflict of interest to everyone recently." He said. "How so?" Erin asked. "Well the fact that he shows little if any fear in the real world and he can be more than a match for a lot of us, even when he doesn't have a virt form the same can be said for Ulrich." He said. Erin cocked an eyebrow. "A virt form is when you take you virtual form on Lyoko and combine it with your real form here thus creating an inhuman creature yet still keeping a human form." Erin looked deep in thought. "It is a very confusing concept." He said. "No it's … not I mean once you get passed the DNA factor it's relatively simple. But it was once called inter fuse." She explained. Everyone stood there shocked. How did Erin know this? "She remembers… What impacted did X.A.N.A. have on her before she lost her memory?" Spike thought.

"I must say that I am surprised X.A.N.A. picked you." The guy said. "Because?" Erin asked. "Well he has many female followers, he could have just picked one of them instead of going to these grate lengths to meet you." "Okay now answer one more question then we can leave." He nodded. "Your name." He grinned. "You'll never now my real name but everyone calls me Link." As he said this, his chains began to move like snakes wrapping themselves around Erin. "I'm guessing that's short for chain link?" His chains retracted taking their place wrapped around his body. "Your smarter than you look, now... shall we?" He asked extending his hand. Erin didn't take his hand she just walked to the car with him.

"Follow him." Spike said. "All right and tell Yumi that okay if she comes now."

Warehouse

A female dark figure stepped out. Drak who was leaned up against a corner looked at her. "Well?" He asked. "Well what?" She asked. "Did Link sense anyone?" "What's it worth to you?" She asked in a more taunting voice. "Don't play mind games that's my job." He said getting more impatient by the second. "Take me with you and you'll get all the information you want." She said getting face to face with Drak reviling a blond girl about his age with a black tank top and pants. "You'd be dead weight." He snarled. "Well try getting information from some one else." She said keeping her calm tone. "You know I'm the only one X.A.N.A. trusts with his armor. So naturally he tells me everything." Drak growled for a moment. "Fine but I'm not in charge of your safety." He said. "Why would I require your protection?" She asked putting a sai blade to his throat, but drak didn't even flinch. "Because you don't have a virt." He replied. "I'll have one soon." She said. "Of course you will." Drak said sarcastically. "Now come on we got work to do." She rolled her eyes and followed.

Clearing in a forest

Erin and Link had been walking for about fifteen minutes when Link stopped. "You'll wait for here X.A.N.A." He commanded. Erin looked back at him but he was already gone.

What do you think happened to Spike and Lance that made Spike hate Christmas so much? And who was that chick Drak was talking to.
