Sorry it's so short, but here it is!
Lady Kyra 13- Thank you for all the support. More of her past coming soon!
When Verdana awoke, the first thing she noticed was her splitting headache. As she opened her eyes, the world slid into focus. She shot back as she noticed a man standing over her. "This one has a sort of immunity to the drug. It should have taken her about three more hours to wake up. See, the other one is still asleep." Verdana knew she was not immune to the drug, only that she recovered faster than any normal human. There was another person standing in the corner that Verdana had not noticed before. The being spoke. It was a strange language, but it was somehow familiar to her. She struggled to remember through the pain. It was so familiar, yet she could not place it. She frowned inwardly; the fact she did not know was so annoying. The man moved away and the being in the corner disappeared. Verdana propped herself up against the nearby wall. She began running through everyone she had met, trying to place the mysterious dialect.
In the factory/Lyoko
"Are you telling me that two of our three most important people are missing!" Odd freaked out as Ulrich informed them. Aelita stood a little ways off, deep in thought. "It couldn't be X.A.N.A. I would know if it was. I believe it was someone else." "Sure, but what can we do about it? If we stay here, X.A.N.A. will keep wearing us down. If we leave, X.A.N.A. will attack us there." Aelita and Yumi rolled their eyes. "Odd, aren't you forgetting something. Aelita can still deactivate the tower. All hope is not lost." "I think that these others want us to come after Verdana and Jeremy. They may even think that they have Aelita. If they don't, they may attack Aelita here, when they realize the rest of us have gone back to the real world. The main thing is to avoid either place." Jordan had been so quiet the others had forgotten he was there. "You may be right." Ulrich said as he checked the screen. "I'll try and call again. She might be in service range again."
Back somewhere in the region of China (I may be a few countries off, but ya know they're somewhere around there.)
Jeremy slowly felt himself coming to. He struggled to hold onto the long awaited dreamless sleep, but he became even more conscious. He became aware of the bright light and then a curious buzzing sound. The smell of mold and sewage hit him like a blow as he opened his eyes. Verdana was leaning against a nearby wall, struggling to free her hands. The buzzing sound continued in sporadic bursts, quite annoying as he had a gigantic headache. All at once, he realized what the sound was. It was a cell phone. The reason for Verdana's struggling became apparent as well. He squirmed over to the wall and leaned against it. The phone kept on ringing and someone was coming down the hall. The someone was wearing heavy boots and was heavy set. The door slowly creaked open.
Back at the factory/Lyoko
"Have you taken care of those hornets yet?" Ulrich asked impatiently. "There are about five more blocks headed your way too, I might mention. Oh ya, I just got cut off from Verdana's phone." Yumi, just having destroyed the last hornet and landed, was on the verge of going crazy. "God dammit! Why can't we just deactivate the dang tower. I mean, it might save Jeremy!" Odd wasn't helping matters either. He was standing off to the side letting Yumi do all the work. "Hold on a second. The blocks just disappeared!" Ulrich exclaimed after looking at the screen. "It has begun." Jordan said in an ominous voice.
