Ulrich362: Well... that was really bad.
bopdog111: Lightly, or an understatement?
Ulrich362: It was no understatement, XANA took William again.
bopdog111: Yeah he did.
Ulrich362: What's his next move going to be?
bopdog111: Whatever it is everyone better be prepared.
Ulrich362: Agreed, enjoy the chapter.

Everyone watched in horror when XANA absorbed Heart Warrior's consciousness as he smirked at the orb, "Betrayal can never be forgiven... I guess you were so hellbent on never forgetting the past that you not once thought to fight back, I was hoping for a challenge."
"William!" Samurai cried in horror.
XANA turned to the group in the orbs as he said to them, "I hope from that display Lyoko Warriors is that unlike last time it is truly inevitable to suffer defeat."
"XANA..." Amazon said coldly.
"As much as I would love to play with another one of you's, I would much rather sit back, and watch." XANA said to them, "My minions will keep all of you in your rooms busy while I watch you all squirm."
With that the orbs cut-off.
"Get back here!" Panther shouted.
"Calm down, it's pointless to go after him in this route. We gotta take care of his puppets first." Blood Shepherd told him.
Panther turned to him. "You don't know what XANA is like. He's pure evil!"
Varis stared on from where the orb was glaring.
Meanwhile...
XANA appeared sighing in where Pink Angel's room is at, "What a bother."
Pink Angel was frowning. "Why are they here?"
"They decided to throw in a last ditch effort to split us." XANA answered.
Pink Angel frowned at that before looking down. "That... doesn't make sense."
"What doesn't?" XANA asked, "Something you want to ask me?"
"If they wanted to separate us... why didn't he fight you?" Pink Angel asked him. "And... that spell you used..."
"He only realized that if he pushes me hard enough then he will regret it. And for the Link Spell it was my way of showing them how would they like it if I brainwashed their monsters when they did the same to you in the past." XANA answered.
"They brainwashed me?" Pink Angel asked in surprise. "Then that card... it shows when you freed me?"
"Pretty much." XANA nodded.
Pink Angel's eyes widened before she frowned. "Let me duel next. I won't let them separate us again, and with the card you gave me I can't lose."
"I can't risk losing you Aelita... It would feel like I failed you all over again." XANA told her.
Pink Angel smiled gently. "You won't. But I can't just sit here doing nothing... maybe that blue-haired one. Please let me help you... it's what dad would want."
"Blue haired one?" XANA blinked, "You mean their new recruit?"
At that an orb showing Roboppi appeared in the room.
"Yeah, him." Pink Angel nodded. "I should at least be able to win against him and make things easier for you."
"I don't know what this new brat can do." XANA told her.
"You trust me don't you?" Pink Angel asked.
"I do, but I am thinking he's more then he looks." XANA admitted.
Pink Angel looked at XANA before sighing. "Alright... I won't."
"I mean you can go ahead but I'm worried about what he can do." XANA told her.
Pink Angel just closed her eyes. "It's alright, I'll just stay out of your way."
"Am I being too overprotective?" XANA asked her.
"No, I'm just being selfish." Pink Angel admitted. "Just promise you'll be ok?"
XANA nodded at that before turning, "In the mean time let's see what the weakest members of the group can do against Faust."
The orb shows Doukeki, Unnamed, and Hard-Drive.
In said room...
A door in the room slid open.
"There!" Unnamed called.
Someone started to step in catching their attention as it shows of a brainwashed Faust walking in as everyone the other rooms can see.
"Faust." Varis frowned.
"One of the Hanoi's three lieutenants, and the Mastermind of the Deleted." Dokueki said seeing him, "Might be him doing this 'take out the trash' job."
"Think you can handle him?" Hard-Drive asked.
"I'll deal with him." Unnamed told them.
"Are you sure?" Hard-Drive asked.
Unnamed nodded, "That guy messed with my brother, so now he messes with me."
"Right." Dokueki nodded.
Unnamed stepped forward readying as the brainwashed Faust also prepared.
"DUEL!"
(Dueling Theme: The Part That Hurts the Most by TFK)
Unnamed: 4000
Faust: 4000
Let the duel begin!

"He uses the same deck as Playmaker?" Panther asked. "I guess that makes some sense."
"Actually he uses Codebreakers. He uses cards like Code Talker to work his Deck." Playmaker explained.
"I set two cards, and end my turn." Unnamed ended.
Faust 1st Turn:
"My turn draw." Faust said drawing, "I activate Xenux Worm Cannon."
Xenux Worm Cannon

Your opponent's monsters cannot target "Motor Worm Tokens" for attacks.
"What is that thing?" Amazon asked in shock.
"For every Insect monster on the field, Spreader Queen gains 700 attack points." Faust stated simply.
Spreader Queen: (ATK: 1000 + (700 * 4) = 3800)
"This is bad." Panther frowned.
"Your monsters not the only one to gain points!" Unnamed called, "Power Integration!"
Code Talker: (ATK: 1300 + 500 = 1800)
"Hey there are only 3 Insects! Spreader Queen should only be 3100!" Ai called.
Playmaker told him, "That spell Faust used to summon those tokens might be responsible."
"In that case we should be prepared for anything." Varis noted.
"Spreader Queen's effect activates! I summon another Token." Faust said as another Token appeared from Spreader Queen's abdomen.
Spreader Queen: (ATK: 3800 + 700 = 4500)
"Activating spell, Motor Worm Gate." Faust added.
Motor Worm Gate
Continuous Spell Card
Once per turn, if all face-up monsters your opponent controls are Insect-Type (min. 1): You can target 1 Insect monster you control; it can attack directly.
"If all monsters on your field insects, Spreader Queen can attack directly." Faust explained.
"One move?" Amazon asked on shock.
"Spreader Queen attacks directly!" Faust called as Spreader Queen fired bees as they fired stingers at Unnamed.
Unnamed quickly called, "Defense Draw activate!"
Defense Draw
Normal Trap Card
During your opponent's turn, at damage calculation: Make the battle damage you take from this battle 0, and if you do, draw 1 card.
"I take no damage, and draw!" Unnamed called drawing as the stingers were blocked.
"That was way too close." Roboppi mentioned. "But what is he going to do now?"
"Set two cards, activate Insect Barrier." Faust told Unnamed.
Insect Barrier
Continuous Spell Card
Insect-Type monsters your opponent controls cannot declare an attack.
"All your Insect Monsters are not allowed to attack." Faust explained as a barrier popped up.
"Turn end." Faust ended.

Faust: 4000
Unnamed 2nd Turn:
"Okay I draw!" Unnamed called drawing, "I activate Call of the Haunted!"
Call of the Haunted
Continuous Trap Card

"Come back Zero Day!" Unnamed called as Codebreaker Zero Day reappeared.
Spreader Queen: (ATK: 4500 + 700 = 5200)
"What's he thinking?" Amazon asked. "He's just making that bug stronger."
"I never thought I'd prefer a Tarantula." Panther frowned.
"Now I summon a second Zero Day!" Unnamed called as another Codebreaker appeared.
Spreader Queen: (ATK: 5200 + 700 = 5900)
"And now appear again the circuit that leads to the future!" Unnamed called as the circuit appeared, "Summoning conditions are two effect monsters!"
The two Zero Days entered the top, and bottom arrows.
"Link Summon! Link 2, Codebreaker Virus Swordsman!" Unnamed called as a blackened swordsman appeared.

During the End Phase, if this card is in the GY because it was destroyed by an opponent's card and sent there this turn: You can Special Summon this card, but banish it when it leaves the field. You can only use each effect of "Codebreaker Virus Swordsman" once per turn.
"That helps, but what is he planning now?" Panther asked.
Spreader Queen: (ATK: 5900 - 700 = 5200)
"First Code Talker!" Unnamed called.
Code Talker: (ATK: 1800 + 500 = 2300)
"Then Virus Swordsman! Since it's summoned, and now co-linked Zero Day pops from my Deck to your field linked to Spreader Queen!"
Zero Day appeared on Faust's field.
"Interesting." Varis noted.
"Monsters on Faust's field are not effected by his Worm Cannon it seems. So Zero Day's appearance didn't matter if it's not an Insect." Playmaker said seeing this.
"Zero Day's effect! Link Monsters linked to this card lose 1000 points!" Unnamed called, "Reversal Force!"
Zero Day let out black smoke engulfing Spreader Queen. (ATK: 5200 - 1000 = 4200)
"That's still too powerful." Samurai frowned.
"And it's worse. Due to Spreader Queen he can't attack any of the Tokens. And attacking Zero Day would not matter since it would not only restore Spreader Queen's points, it would also make a new Zone open." Flame told them.
"Unless that's what he wants." Aqua mentioned.
"I place 1 card down, and end my turn." Unnamed said ending his turn.
Faust 2nd Turn:
"My turn draw!" Faust called drawing, "Gate's effect! Spreader Queen attacks directly!"
Spreader Queen fired bees again.
"Trap, Spirit Barrier open!" Unnamed called.
Spirit Barrier
Continuous Trap Card
While you control a monster, you take no battle damage.

"He's still in trouble." Gardener frowned.
"Trap activate, Motor Worm Hive." Faust told him.
Motor Worm Hive
Continuous Trap Card
All Insect Monsters you control cannot be destroyed by your opponent's card effects. Once per turn, if you control a "Motor Worm" Link Monster: Inflict 1000 damage to your opponent.
"You take 1000 points of damage." Faust stated as Spreader Queen fired acid as Unnamed grunted. (Unnamed: 3000)
"This is bad." Ai frowned.
"I also activate Worm Swarm." Faust added to this.
Worm Swarm
Continuous Trap Card
Once per turn, if you control a "Motor Worm" Link Monster: Inflict 200 damage to your opponent for each Insect Monster in the Main Monster Zones. Your opponent cannot target "Motor Worm Tokens" you control with card effects.
"You take 200 points of damage for each Insect in Main Monster Zones." Faust told Unnamed as more acid fired as Unnamed grunted. (Unnamed: 2000)
"He'll lose!" Rosaly panicked.
"I set a card. Turn End." Faust ended.
Unnamed: 2000
Faust: 4000
Unnamed 3rd Turn:
'Jin... I'll fight for you all the way!' Unnamed thought before calling, "Draw!"
"Hive effect." Faust said as Spreader Queen fired more acid.
"Hanewata's effect! I discard to this card to lower the damage to zero!" Unnamed countered as a fairy defended him.
"How much longer can he last?" Prophet asked.
"Swarm." Faust said as more acid was shot. (Unnamed: 1000)
Unnamed grunted, "I-I activate Twisted Justice!"
Twisted Justice
Normal Spell Card

"I get that other Token out of the way!" Unnamed called as the other Token linked to Spreader Queen vanished.
Spreader Queen: (ATK: 4200 - 700 = 3500)
"It's not enough." Blue Maiden frowned.
"I activate Pot of Greed!" Unnamed called.
Pot of Greed
Normal Spell Card
Draw 2 Cards.
Unnamed drew twice, "I activate Monster Reborn!"
Monster Reborn
Normal Spell Card
Target 1 monster in either GY; Special Summon it.
"Come Zero Day!" Unnamed called as Zero Day appeared, "Appear third time circuit that leads to the future!"
The circuit appeared.
"What's he summoning?" Panther asked.
"Summoning conditions are at least two monsters including a Codebreaker!" Unnamed called as Virus Swordsman, and Zero Day entered the top, bottom, and right arrows, "Link Summon! Link 3, Codebreaker Virus Berserker!"
At that another darkened warrior appeared.
Codebreaker Virus Berserker
Dark Type
Link Rating 3
Warrior/Link
ATK: 2800
Link Markers: Top, Bottom, Right
2+ monsters, including a "Codebreaker" monster

During your Main Phase: You can destroy Spells/Traps your opponent controls, up to the number of linked "Codebreaker" monsters on the field. You can only use each effect of "Codebreaker Virus Berserker" once per turn.
"Will that be enough?" Lightning inquired.
"Berserker's effect! I summon another Zero Day to your field!" Unnamed called as a second Zero Day appeared, "Reversal Force!"
Spreader Queen: (ATK: 3500 - 1000 = 2500)
"So close, if he didn't have that barrier he could destroy it." Rosaly frowned.
"Actually we don't have to worry." Playmaker said with a knowing smile.
"We don't?" Roboppi asked.
"Virus Berserker's effect! A number of your cards equal to Linked Codebreakers on the field are destroyed!" Unnamed called as Barrier, Swarm, and Hive all shattered.
"Impressive." Varis noted calmly.
"I then activate the spell, Codebreak Simulation!" Unnamed added.
Codebreak Simulation
Normal Spell Card
This turn if a "Codebreaker" Link Monster destroys an opponent's monster by battle that is Linked to a face-up "Codebreaker" monster on their field: Inflict damage to your opponent equal to the ATK of that monster's ATK, also target 1 monster your opponent controls: Change it's battle position.
"And now Virus Berserker attack!" Unnamed called as Berserker charged attacking Spreader Queen destroying it. (Faust: 3700) "And now here is Simulation's effect! You lose 2500 points now, and that Token changes to attack mode!"
The blast hit as Faust grunted. (Faust: 1200)
The Token shift left open.
"Go Code Talker!" Unnamed called as Code Talker attacked destroying the Token as Faust cried out.
Unnamed: 1000
Faust: 0000
Unnamed wins the duel!
"Wow." Gardener whispered in awe.
Unnamed grinned, "That's the bond of brothers."
"My... wait where am I?" Faust asked weakly before getting up only for his eyes to widen seeing Dokueki. "You!"
"Calm yourself Faust. I mean no harm." Dokueki told him simply, "We all have a Common Enemy now."
Faust closed his eyes before nodding. "Right, where is master Varis?"
"In a room separate then our's." Unnamed answered.
Meanwhile...
XANA sneered, "There not as weak as I thought."
That's when he noticed Pink Angel was gone.
"Huh? Aelita?" XANA asked looking around looking over the orbs.
Meanwhile...
With Rosaly, Lightning, and Roboppi the AI boy cheered, "Alright! He done it!"
Suddenly the floor opened underneath Roboppi.
"Huh?" Roboppi, and them looked to see as he stood in the air for a moment before cupping his chin shrugging, "Welp... didn't see that coming."
He then shot down, "WHOAAAA!"
"Huh?" Rosaly asked in shock. "What happened to him?"
"Someone wants some business with him." Lightning guessed.
Roboppi landed in another room with nobody else there.
"Ow..." Roboppi grunted rubbing his head looking around, "Hello!?"
"Duel me."
"Huh?" Roboppi looked over seeing it was Pink Angel, "Who are you?"
"I'm your opponent." Pink Angel told him.
"So your who XANA sent. Alright." Roboppi grinned bowing in respect, "Have fun."
Pink Angel blinked in surprise at that. "Yeah..."
Roboppi grinned preparing himself. Pink Angel did the same.
"DUEL!"
bopdog111: Second battle ended in their victory.
Ulrich362: True, Faust was taken down but now Pink Angel is about to duel Roboppi.
bopdog111: And he in canon is strong enough to beat Soulburner had he not malfunctioned.
Ulrich362: True, it'll be interesting to say the least.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
