Kat sat in the lobby of the hospital, or was it the foyer? She could care less actually. Jeremie was on the fourth floor, Aelita there too. She, Yumi, and Ulrich were on the first, along with Odd. Scott on the second, Shaynessa (Kat called her Shaye, Scott called her Sha) on the third, Isabella and Galadriel were also on the first, in addition to Jane and Danyell. Kat had no idea where everyone else was. The plague had claimed exactly twenty victims and around forty had it. The cure seemed in sites, but dodged everyone.

She wished it would all end happily ever after.

Clarice was pleased with herself. She had gotten a reaction out of Xana and now had access to the virtualization program. She could easily put it on a time relay. Once in Lyoko Clarice would have to find the activated tower. Not too hard. She had been virtualized to Earth once before. But she wanted to go to France. Or talk to Xana.

The tower was in the ice region and she shivered regardless of it not being cold. It bore his symbol on the top, one of the few entrances. She entered, goose bumps traveling up her spine. Inside it changed, the normal tower grew and the floor solidified. She walked towards the center.

"You just can't get enough, can you?" The voice boomed.

"Well I can, but, I decided to come and say goodbye."

"Goodbye?"

"Yeah, the minute I step out of that scanner, I'm pulling you plug," she said the last few words with more anger than intended.

"Now why would you want to do that?"

"Because, you're a bad guy and I'm a good guy."

"Is that all it really boils down to, Clarice? Your alignment?"

"Yep."

"And how will you save your friends? The cure can only be manufactured in Lyoko."

Clarice was bluffing and he had called it, "I'll find a way."

"You can't just unplug Lyoko, I can see it in your eyes."

"Really? Cause when I look in the mirror I just see a pair of blue eyes staring back."

He laughed, "Do you think little jokes will change the fate of your friends?"

"The plague has claimed twenty victims, no of your intended targets."

"You forget Anna, and Lee, and Eva."

"Eva's perfectly fine!"

"Not with Geb around."

"Geb?"

"I thought you'd know, Eva recruited Geb to help her."

Clarice was furious, if he knew all this, why didn't she, "You expect me to believe you killed Eva?" She paused, "Prove it."

"Very well then."

A blue screen appeared in front of Clarice, it showed black sedans, driving down the road, a red one in the center. She wondered why he was showing her this when she saw the black-haired girl carrying Eva on her back. Clarice stifled a cry of outrage. The cars stopped, the red one on the side of Eva and the other. The other seemed to speak to the red car's driver. When Clarice recognized the cars, it was those idiots. The other opened the back door and put Eva in, she climbed in.

"Eva, what have you gotten yourself into now?"

Geb sat in the back, her mom was driving.

"You are in deep trouble, young miss, you and your friends; you realize that when you realized the treat of your 'Lyoko' you should have reported it immediately. Now, you have gotten yourself too deep to climb out. It's over for you, I fear." Her mom seemed really tense.

She looked forward, "We're going the wrong way."

"No the silo's this way."

"I meant the hospital."

"Well, you're not getting out of it that easy."

"Eva's not doing too well, and if you don't turn around right now, you'll have one more death added to your conscious!"

Her mom looked at her in the rear view mirror, "Are you threatening me?"

"I'm threatening your friends, not you."

The cars stopped and her mom turned around, "Well Irma would be sad if her daughter disappeared." Geb looked at the woman driving, her mom? Something weird happened and it wasn't her mom. A blonde sat there, with grey eyes, she wore the uniform of the others. Geb gasped.

"That's right, you were tricked, too bad, you're so stupid."

The window disappeared and Clarice looked up, "You know, if I loose my friends, you loose me, and I know you hate it when you loose."

The voice seemed confused, "What are you talking about?"

"Um, you better help Eva out," she had borrowed that line from a TV show, she couldn't remember which, but a black haired kid with spiky hair said it to some bald dude.

"Why? She'll lead them right to Lyoko…"

Clarice was surprised, "Would that ruin your plan?"
