A/n: These last two chapters could be my favorite. R&R everybody.


There was nothing going through her head. No thoughts at all. It was all total concentration on what she was doing. Turn the flashlight on, and stand it up face-down on the floor so the light didn't show. In the box they had found twenty five flashlights. She had one stuck in her back pocket. They were as ready as they could get. Jason reached over and tapped her back. She sprung up, flashing her light into his face. He held his hands up and laughed a little.

"Ready to do this Nikki?" he asked. She buried her face into his chest and nodded. They only got on shot at this.

Lyoko

Aelita entered her tower quickly as Sam and Ulrich held off a new group of monsters.

Aelita

Code:…

Code: Lyoko

"tower deactivated," Aelita smiled bringing up a visual on the lab. Jeremy sighed.

"good job. Why don't you get Sam and Ulrich to go the passage tower. Odd and Yumi may need backup," he said finishing the codes on the tower. Aelita nodded and headed towards the lower level. Peeking out of the tower she seen Ulrich, now on foot, facing off against 3 hornets and Sam against a megatank.

"I'm resending the Overboard and the Overbike," Jeremy said into his headset. Aelita waited until it was clear to make a run towards her friends.

"Any word from Nicole and Jason?" Ulrich asked finishing off his last hornet.

"No. Jason's cell phone died," Jeremy answered.

"I keep telling him to charge that thing!" Sam growled finally hitting the megatank with a light disk.

"how about a reload Jer?" she asked running her hand through her hair.

"Sure. Just a second." The overbike and overboards virtualized in the middle of where the three were standing. A few seconds later, a new ring of disks appeared on Sam's hip. She inspected the first one, as she always did, and smirked.

"think fast Ulrich." she pretended to throw it at him. He quickly pulled out his saber to block the disk. Sam and Aelita laughed.

"Oh ha, ha. Mature," Ulrich said putting his saber away and rolled his eyes.

"Get moving you guys," Jeremy said impatiently. The three headed towards the passage tower.

Desert Sector

Yumi took a quick turn on the overwing. The tower was close but monsters were blocking the way. Xana wasn't giving up taking down Jason and Nicole with out a fight, and he was fighting hard. He hadn't built up enough energy to release his stronger monsters yet. But it was only a matter of time.

Factory

The locked door in front of Nicole and Jason was ripped from its hinges. The polymorphic warrior made its noisy entrance and spotted the two. It shot out two black, smoky arms, Nicole kicked over the flashlight. A bright beam tore threw the dark room. The clone let out a shattering scream. Jason kicked over more flashlights as the monster reached for him.

"We're out of here Nikki!" He yelled running towards the door. The flashlights could slow it down, but they weren't strong enough to stop it. Nicole started running behind Jason as he fumbled with the lock on the back door. She looked over her shoulder. The clone was getting around the lights. It had shot up against the ceiling, flattening itself against it. Finally getting through the lock, Jason tore out of the room, with Nicole right behind him. At least that's what he thought. An ear piercing scream rang through the factory, making Jason's blood run cold. He spun on his heels and ran back towards the small room. Nicole was held up in the air by her throat. Her arms thrashing wildly landing hits on the clone right and left, but it never flinched. Jason pulled the flashlight from his pocket running towards the polymorphic clone. It screeched but kept its grip. Nicole fought back harder. She tried to loosen the clones grip and kicked at it. It started to shake her and she screamed louder.

"Let her go!" Jason started to throw his own punches coming out of his shock. Nicole gasp and slowly stopped fighting.

"stop it!" Jason screamed tearing his nails into the clone. He pushed over more lights in the process. Nicole's eyes started to droop and she was losing conscious.

Lyoko

"I've called both Nicole and Jason on their cell's five times," Jeremy sighed as Dylan finally entered the tower.

"Where are they?" Ulrich asked.

"I don't know," Jeremy admitted.

"We better not be to late," Yumi said giving a cold glare towards the other plateaus. They watched the tower's aurora change back to blue.
