Rescue Mission Part 3

A/N: Yay! No one's on Xana's Lair so I can focus on this story. XD I admit, I'm obsessed. XD IMPORTANT NOTE: Alright, so last chapter we saw Jeremie, Aelita, Yumi, Odd, and Xana leave the room. This is where this begins.

To the story!

"So now where are we headed, Jeremie?" Aelita asked as they left Zephyr and Aivillia to fight Ulrich.

"Well, Lirril said that she's going to lead us to their main computer. Damien knows how to get through most of the security and he wants us to set the computer to self-destruct. Then we'll have about ten minutes to get out before the building is destroyed," Jeremie told them as he began to leave the confinement area, per Lirril's instructions.

"If anyone tries to stop us I'll hold them off while you guys go on ahead. I'll catch up once I've gotten rid of them," Xana told them.

"Sounds reasonable enough. Do try to be quick about it, though, because we might need you in the control room when we get there," Aelita stated, following Jeremie into the next room.

"It doesn't seem like they've gotten any kind of alert yet, so we're safe until we're caught…" Yumi whispered as they kept walking.

"There are going to definitely be some in the control room. Lirril and Damien just told me that there's always at least three people in there at one time. If there isn't someone in there then an alarm must have gone off…" Jeremie stated.

"Well, if it gets to that then we should split up and make a commotion so that they're drawn out of the control room. Jeremie and I would go to the control room and then Yumi, Odd, and Xana can make their way somewhere else to make a commotion," Aelita explained as they made their way down a long hallway.

"Tell everyone to be very quiet down this hallway… You've got this hallway, another room, and then you're at the control room. This hallway is where the Creators sleep and I'm not sure if any of them would be asleep right now or not…" Lirril mentioned quietly as she and Damien began to talk about different things while the others travelled.

Seconds later a door busted open and a rather large, as in chubby, man walked out and turned toward the group. "Who are you and what're you doing here? This is a 'Creator's Only' area!"

"Looks like we're caught," Odd stated as he got into a fighting stance.

"Like I said before, I handle this guy. You guys worry about getting to our destination," Xana ordered, getting ready to fight the man. "I've been wanting to see what I can do…"

"Good luck, then," Odd told him as they moved towards the opposite wall so they wouldn't end up getting in the middle of the fight accidentally.

As the two fought Jeremie and the others made their way closer and closer to the door that led to the next room and then the control room. When they reached it Xana and the man were still engrossed in fighting and didn't see them leave.

"Alright, so now you're in the main hallway of the building. If you guys would have entered a different way than this is where you would've ended up," Damien told them as they made their way towards the middle of the room.

"If Yumi and Odd go all the way to the left and through the door on their right and start making noise they'll probably get those three out of the control room so you and Aelita can get in there. Damien will instruct you on where to go from there and then you'll hopefully be home free," Lirril told him.

Jeremie relayed the messaged and then brought Aelita over to a place to hide.

"Do be aware that you'll only have as much time as Xana, Yumi, and Odd can give you. I'll help guide you through the main parts of the computer, but you'll have to put your hacking skills to the test and get through the password to set the building to explode. Then, after all that, you'll have five minutes to get far enough away that you won't get hurt by the explosion," Damien explained as a siren went off.

Aelita and Jeremie watched closely as three men, all with grayed or graying hair, left the control room and quickly made their way toward where Yumi and Odd were stationed. Once they'd disappeared Aelita and Jeremie dashed into the control room and locked the door.

"Aelita, call Zephyr or Aivillia and tell them what's happening. Tell them that they need to stop by and get Xana and then get Yumi and Odd and get out. Explain to them their way around and then get off because by then I'll be at the access screen," Jeremie ordered as he sat down in front of the computer and got to work following Damien's instructions.

Aelita nodded and did as Jeremie asked and then joined him beside the computer. "They said they were already on their way here and couldn't find Xana, but they'd stop and get Yumi and Odd and then head outside where they'll be waiting for us by the exit near the door Yumi and Odd went through."

When Jeremie got to the password window he began to work on hacking into the system. Watching codes open and close on the screen and typing in the exact right thing was crucial to this. He knew he needed to get this right the first time, because if they were caught he doubted they'd be able to get back in here a second time. What these people were doing was wrong and he wouldn't put up with it. Computer stuff was Jeremie's forte and it was something he was proud of. After having Aelita re-look at everything quickly to make sure he got it right he hit the enter button and crossed his fingers…

"I'm in," he stated to let Lirril and Damien know that the four had done it.

"Yes! Alright, free all the AIs that are stored on those computers. They'll know where to go. You have to transfer Zender, Aiko, and Amelinda's data over to this computer. Damien says that their files were corrupted so that's why they're the way they are. After you do that hit the button to self-destruct the place. It should be around there," Lirril explained excitedly.

Jeremie followed her instructions and then hit the button.

"Five minutes to leave and I doubt it's going to be easy…" Aelita whispered as the two left the control room.

"Probably not, but we'll make it," Jeremie stated, moving his glasses up as a Creator neared them.

-Xana-(a small bit before the self-destruct button was hit)

He maneuvered his way around so that he wouldn't run into those children and made his way to the areas storage center. This would have to be where they kept those capsules, wouldn't it?

When he got inside he began searching around, pocketing things he found useful. When his eye finally caught the box marked 'capsules' and alarm began ringing. He knew the children had gotten to their destination and were setting the building to explode. Now was his time to get out of there without what he'd gone to search for…

A/N: Thought I'd show a little side thing as to what Xana was up to… XD Next chapter should be up tomorrow. X3 YES! Finally, I updated twice in a row again. X3

Read and review, everybody! X3
