"Is it possible you could be wrong?" Kat asked Galadriel, "You've been wrong before."
"As have you."
"Have not."
"Have to."
"Have not."
"Have too."
"Have—"
Ulrich interrupted, "Stop!"
"When have I been wrong?" Kat asked.
"You thought the hospital had three floors."
"Did not."
"Did to."
"Did."
"Didn't."
"Did."
"Didn't."
"Di---"
"Stop it!" Ulrich hollered, interrupting again.
"Sorry," Galadriel and Kat said.
"Kat's right," he said.
"What?" Galadriel exclaimed.
"I am?" Kat asked.
"Yes," Ulrich replied, "Galadriel is wrong about the virus."
-.-
Geb was next to Eva, the group was tearing the place apart, Geb winced. Eva's eyes started to open and she made a weird noise.
They were relatively close to the computer. Geb struggled against her bonds so that she could face Eva. "Eva," she whispered, "Keep quiet and don't flip."
Eva's eyes opened and the anger and frustration could be read clear across Eva's face, "What are they doing here?"
"They kind of talked to my mom."
"You told your mom?"
"No, she can read minds."
Eva gave Geb a strange look, "That must be a pain."
"It is."
"So how are we getting out of this one?"
"Don't worry, I have a plan."
"You do?"
"You betcha."
"I don't bet."
"Well that's good; you'd be broke if you did."
"Straying form the topic, what's the plan?"
"Well first we have to get free."
"Got a plan after that?"
"Believe it or not, yes."
"This isn't Ripley's."
"What?"
"I'm not believing it."
"Pardon?"
"I don't know your plans well."
"You'll have to trust me."
"Fine."
"Fine, now listen and listen well."
O.O
"Wrong," Galadriel said, folding her arms.
"I'm right, and you're wrong," Kat replied stubbornly.
"You're a kid."
"And you're a doctor, you're supposed to be smarter, and open to suggestions."
"What is that supposed to mean?"
"That you shouldn't put down everything that you didn't say."
"You're dancing on thin ice."
"Am not."
"Are to."
"Am not"
"Are to."
"Am not."
"Are to."
"Am not."
"Are to."
"Am not."
"Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop it right now!" Ulrich put his hands up to face each other and formed a shadow animal with each, "Did," he made one say, "Didn't," he had the other reply. He repeated that for a while until Kat and Galadriel were ready to rip off his head.
"Ulrich, thin ice," Galadriel snapped.
"Very," Added Kat.
Ulrich smiled and lowered his hands, "Glad we've reached an understanding. Now to more pressing matters."
Kat and Galadriel turned to each other and shrugged. Ulrich produced a soccer ball from behind his back.
Kat put her hands on her hips, "I can't see, remember."
"Soccer," Ulrich said.
Galadriel didn't seem to agree with the plan, "You sure this is safe?"
"No one's on the basketball court," Ulrich replied.
"And Kat's blind."
"I'm blind, not handicap."
"Well," Galadriel considered her words, "Technically you are, because you have a disability."
Kat paused, "Then I'll be soft on Ulrich, since he'll be easy on me."
Yumi came running in, "Ready? Is Galadriel officiating or playing?"
"Playing," Galadriel said.
"Great it can be three on three, it'll be perfect, Danyell said he wanted to play and Jane said she did to, Isabella said she'll officiate if no one else will."
Galadriel tilted her head, "I didn't know you planed this much."
"I know you, Kat and Ulrich well."

Geb had untied herself and Eva, then made sure that the ropes were not tangled. Two of them and five of the others, Eva looked over to Geb and nodded to say she was ready.
"Set?" Geb asked.
"I take out two, you take out two and the first one to the last gets that one, I hope we don't die."
"They won't kill us, trust me."
A guard was standing in front of the two, Eva nodded. Quietly Geb used one of her ropes to tie his foot to a pillar, the rest wouldn't notice and nor would he. It wasn't tight, she had tied it in a knot like a lasso's, so when he walked forward he'd trip and be sent sprawling. Everyone would turn to see what was going on and that would be Geb's cue, she'd stand and say something, somewhat distracting them and Eva would fly at them, taking her two down. Geb had already taken one down, and they suspected Eva would have to take down three.
It went as planed, excluding the fact the blonde started to escape. Geb took her other rope and tied it in another lasso like knot. She ran at the blonde and swung the rope forward, it went up and over her head, and tightened, pining her arms to her sides. The blonde hit the floor with a thud and Eva gave the thumbs up. With the blonde tied up Geb returned the thumbs up. Eva smiled and kicked the last one square in the chest, sending him flying to the wall, barely missing Geb.
"Perfect," Geb said, running over to Eva, "It went just like in the movies."
Eva smiled, "Head down to the scanner room."
"You're supposed to go, not me, I operate the computer, you go to Lyoko."
"Xana's locked me out, along with everyone else, a new player card is necessary to enter."
"What if he blocked it?"
"Blocked what?"
"Creating new cards, and why don't you create one?"
"Because, I'm already registered so to speak, and you never have been, plus I know how to operate the super computer so it's not like you need to stay behind so that I can go and you can operate it, it'll be good for you besides, something different for once."
"I can't."
"Why not? You'll be fine, all you have to do is find Clarice or Aelita and one of them can take it from there."
"I don't want to die."
"You won't."
"You sure?"
"Positive."
"What if, Xana's put points into reality? He's done it before."
"You'll just have to be more careful, plus his ambush is gone, all of them at base and he wont suspect you coming, it'll be a complete surprise, and it wont be hard."
"What if I don't have a weapon?"
"You will, I know."
"How will I use it?"
"The computer usually pairs you with one you know."
Geb seemed to shrink before Eva's eyes, "I can't."
"Why?"
"I can't."
"Why?"
"I have claustrophobia."
"You what?"
"Small spaces scare me."
"Geb," Eva laughed, "You'll only be there for a minute or two, then, you're in Lyoko."
"I'll be alone."
"No, I'll tell Clarice you're coming."
"What if she doesn't show up?"
"You are so paranoid."
Geb sighed, "I'm scared."
"Why?"
"Because, I don't know what'll happen."
"You didn't five seconds ago."
"But I was sure we'd not be killed, and would take them completely by surprise."
"The same will happen, trust me."
Geb paused, "I have to at some point." She exited into the elevator and down into the scanner room. She entered the scanner and watched as the doors closed. Panic seized her and she flung herself at the doors. "Eva! Eva! Don't do this to me!"
Eva's voice came from somewhere Geb couldn't tell its origin, "Geb, trust me, you'll be fine."
Geb stopped moving and breathed slowly.
"Ready?"
"As ready as I'll ever be."
