Energy Drink for the Soul

Jeremy's heart races as he tries to rematerialize the vehicles. As he types, sweat drips down his neck as he breaths. Then Jeremy turns around, and there is a black shadow. "Jeremy," Aelita screams as she is trapped in an igloo created by XANA. She closes her eyes and prays that someone finds her. Meanwhile, Allison is battling William above a skinny pathway above the digital sea. "William, you are not getting away with this," Allison states. William smiles and laughs as he waves his weapon above her head. Ash desperately tries to free his right leg from the ice beam. He looks up and sees a block of ice about to fall on Dawn, who is hanging on to dear life. Brock races to save Dawn but comes face to face with William. "Wait? Where is Allison?" Brock asks. Two Williams? Back at the hotel, Yumi and Ulrich hold their breath as they run down the hallway and see bodies on the floor. They open and door and Yumi faints when she sees her brother hanging above them. Odd, on the other hand, holds up and water shooter and shoots at his classmates. "Take this shit, XANA!" Odd shouts as he hits, but he comes face to face with Kiwi, whose mouth is dripping green juice. "You drank Power Rage!" Kiwi's eyes have the Eye of XANA, and Odd has no choice but to take down man's best friend.

"Such a beautiful day," Odd exclaims as he finishes his breakfast. "Odd, are you okay?" Aelita asks. "Yeah. I feel at peace looking at all the different leaves." "I know the feeling," Ulrich states. "The fall foliage is a wonderful sight." "Or maybe Odd has a new girlfriend?" Ash teases. "Maybe?" Odd answers, which causes Dawn to grip her fork tightly. "Concerned, Dawn?" Allison asks. "No. I remember that I wanted to go on a walk and check at the trees after class." "We should. XANA has been quiet lately, and we need to take our mind off on William," Yumi said. "I don't know. If we let our guard down, XANA can strike," Jeremy said. Brock rushes in as Jeremy finishes speaking. "Did you hear?" Brock asks. "No. What?" Allison asks. "We have to spend the weekend at a hotel." "A hotel?" the gang questions. "Yeah, I heard it was mold in the dormitories." "I heard it was lead. The school is old," Rocky chimes in. "I heard it was the Kadic Ghost, "Moxie said. "Ghosts are not real," Ash J says. "It is both mold and lead. That is why some first-year students had to get to the infirmary." "I see. A weekend in a cheap hotel," Jeremy said. "How do you know it is cheap?" Odd asks. "You think Mr. Delmas will use the school funds for an expensive hotel for his students," Ulrich chimes in. "Whatever. Hotels are where lots of things take place," Rocky said. "Like horror movies," Aelita said. "No. Like hookups." "With GI-Joe-Jim on the prowl, a horror movie seems more realistic," Brock said. A few minutes later, Odd gets an alert on his phone. "It's here!" "What, your brain," Rocky teases. "At least he uses his," Aelita claps back. "Spicy from Mrs. Einstien! Does the mate have a response?" "Yeah, fuck you and your tiny ass dick," Jeremy replies. Everyone laughs. "Hold, do you know?" Rocky growls. "Because you don't use a cup in gym class. Your dick is too small!" Jeremy laughs. "Okay, we know that you three get a kick out of teasing each other, but I want to hear Odd's news," Yumi says. "Thank you. It is the new drink, Power Rage. It is great for a post-workout drink," Odd said. "We're too young for that. We don't need that," Brock says. "My sisters drink it. It is now available here." "It looks like it is only available at the Hotel Marvel chains," Ash said. "What? You can't go unless you're a guest," Odd says as he slumps in his chair. Mr. Delmas walks in to make an announcement. "Attention, students, as you know, there is a lead and mole problem in the dorms. We have been notified that the science building has a mole problem as well. So, we are giving boarding students thirty minutes to pack lightly; then, we will head to Hotel Marvel. Then all students will have a science lesson in one of the conference rooms." All of the students cheer. "Power Rage, here I come!" Odd said. "What about Kiwi?" Yumi asks. "Shit, I'll have to bring him. The factory is too far away to leave him there."

At Hotel Marvel, the staff brings in the latest shipment of Power Rage. One of the workers questioned the flavor of the drink. "What flavor is that?" "I think it is Green Grape," another worker said. "Why is it full of Electromagnetic waves?" "Maybe it is Shock Grape. Like how there is Bue Raspberry Volt." "Okay, let's set them up here." The drinks have a bright green glow, and the electromagnetic waves travel through the bottles. A close-up of one of the bottles shows the Eye of XANA among the bubbles of the drink.

The day students have their science class at the hotel as the boarding students settle into their rooms. "Okay, there are three of us and two beds," Aelita said. "We are getting another person. A girl who has a single," Dawn said. "I wonder who it can be?" "No fucking way!" Sissi shouts. "Sissi?" Allison, Dawn, and Aelita shout. "No. I am not! Daddy!" Sissi shouts as she runs down the hallway. "Darling, you have to share a room with some students. Plus, Allison and Dawn are on the cheerleading team with you," Mr. Delamas states. Sissi screams. Jeremy has to share a room with Ash J and Jimmy. "Who is the lucky fourth person?" Jimmy asks."Please, not Mark Coine. He sheds like a dog," Ash J says. Jeremy rolls his eyes and steps into the hallway to breathe. He notices Clone William looking lost. "Fuck! We have to find his room before he slips up." Jeremy knocks on Ulrich and Odd's room, and he is greeted with a large feather creature. "Holy Fuck!" Jeremy screams. Ash coughs. "Sorry, Odd started a pillow fight, and it went out of control." "You mean you started it," Odd corrects. "Anyway, what do you need, Jeremy?" Ulrich asks. "Nevermind. I have to do it," Jeremy said. "Do what?" Brock asks. "William? No!" Jimmy shouts. "I mean, William is a badass, but now he is really," Ash J starts. "Look. I promise Yumi," Jeremy says. "Okay, but you two will share a bed," Jimmy said. A few minutes later, Odd is running to the lobby only to feel his stomach drop. "Gone!" "Yeah, you should have gotten here sooner," Herve says. "Yeah, Sissi took the last one!" Nicholas said. "It was fucking good," Sissi says as she slurps the last drops of Power Rage. "Gone!" Odd sinks to the floor. Yumi hears her brother and Johnny nearby. "I wonder if we will gain muscles," Hiroki says. "I hope so; maybe I'll be able to woo Yumi," Johnny said. "As I said, you are no match for Ulrich." "What the hell? You don't need any energy drinks. You need to grow more," Yumi said. "Jealous," Hiroki teases. Yumi walks away. Later the night, as students start to leave, Yumi decides to stick around a little longer. "I live close by; I'll grab my brother and head out in a few minutes," Yumi said. "Great, let's go to the jacuzzi," Dawn said. The boys, on the other hand, decided to head to the arcade. "I am going to beat you," Ulrich said. "Not so fast," Odd said. At the pool, some of the students start to feel woozy. "My head hurts," Milly says. "My stomach feels like a rollercoaster," Emilie says. Aelita notices a Power Rage bottle glowing. "Why does it glow?" Aelita asks. "It is the vitamin crystals," Sissi says. Sissi stands up but looks green. "I think I might be sick," Sissi says as she rushes to the bathroom. "I have a weird feeling," Yumi said. "Me too, let's call the boys," Dawn says. At the arcade, Nicholas starts to shake. His hands start to sweat as his feet and arms start to throb. His eyes start to go blank as his mouth starts to drool green juice. "Let me take Nicholas back to his room," Jim says. "I have a weird feeling," Jeremy said. Allison calls Ash as Jeremy checks the super scan. "Yeah, Nicholas looked like the guy from Unova Horror Story," Ash says. "Bad news, there is an activated tower in the Ice Sector," Jeremy said. "Okay, we'll head over," Allison says. As the girls change in the locker room, they feel a sense of fright. Their bodies feel empty, and their fingers and toes have a sharp icy feeling. Once they step out, they see some girls with blank eyes and green juice drool. "Attack!" The girls shout. Yumi, Allison, Dawn, and Aelita run out of the pool and down the hall. Nicholas and Jim come back and stare out the boys. Jim and Nicholas attack the boys with blank eyes and green juice drool, but they run away. Combine, the boys feel a tightness in their chest, and quiver in their stomachs, and an urge to empty their bladders. Back with their girls, Aelita, Dawn, and Allison end up in the lobby. "Where is Yumi?" Aelita asks. Dawn tries to call her, but no one answers. "What do we do?" "We have to wait for the boys. We can call them, and one of them can look for Yumi," Allison says. Yumi looks around and touches the wall. She feels the cold, bumpy wall as she looks around. "Where am I?" She hears footsteps, quick footsteps. Yumi looks around and grabs a rusty pipe. She feels the grainy rust on the pipe as she raises it. "Yumi?" A voice asks. "Ulrich?" Yumi answers. "And Odd," Odd answers. "Where are the boys?" Yumi asks. "I don't know; we got separated. The girls?" "Same," Yumi says. "What is going on?" "A XANA attack, but what caused the current state of mind of our classmates?" Ulrich asks. "I don't know, but we need to call the others," Yumi said. Yumi checks her pockets and feels a state of panic. "I lost my phone," Yumi says. "Don't worry, I have mine," Odd said. Odd calls Jeremy as he, Ash, and Brock enter the lobby and meet up with Aelita, Dawn, and Allison. "Good, you three stay safe and figure out what is going on. We're going to the factory." "Okay, how are we going to get there?" Ash asks. "We have bike rentals," the concierge claims. "Okay, to the factory," Jeremy states.

On the way to the factory, the streets are covered with fog. The fog creates a cloud of shadows and lights that make the streets of Paris look like a swamp. "It is so foggy," Aelita says. She sees some children dressing up in costumes. "They look like elves." "Yeah, these children were too sick for Halloween, so they are having a make-up day," Dawn says. A few feet away, a person with blank eyes and green drool follows them. "For XANA," the person says. At the hotel, Yumi sits on the floor and thinks about something. "Aelita notices something with Power Rage." "Power Rage?" Odd asks. "It had this weird glow." Ulrich gets up and sees Johnny on the floor. His body is lukewarm, and he has green drool from his mouth. "Johnny!" Ulrich exclaims. "How did you know he was there?" Odd asks. "I didn't. I need to walk and think," Ulrich said. "He might have overdosed on the drink. I told him and my brother that they are too young for energy drinks," Yumi said. Next to Johnny is the bottle of Power Rage. Odd opens it and smells it. "It smells weird, like electromagnetic waves." "XANA!" Yumi shouts. "XANA spiked the drink and is turning everyone into Power Ragers." Ulrich and Odd laugh. "Becasue I said Power Ragers. Grow up!" Ulrich goes to the vending machine to get a bottle of coconut water. "I need a drink. When he takes a drink, a spider falls on his head. "Shit!" Ulrich screams and drops some of his coconut water, but the water mixes with the energy drink and turns it blue. "Can I have some?" Yumi asks. She takes some and gives it to Johnny. He looks normal. "Coconut water is the cure," Odd says. The three quickly as much coconut water as possible and head back to the arcade to get water shooters. "We need to contain everyone here, so they don't go to the factory," Ulrich said. "I can handle some. I think Rocky is the only either student who didn't get any," Odd said. "Okay, then Yumi and I can handle some students as well," Ulrich said. "Great. Let's get them, boys," Yumi said. At the factory, Jeremy sends the group to the Ice Sector with some vehicles waiting. "Thanks, Jeremy," Aelita says as Jeremy blushes. Dawn laughs. "And Jeremy's face turned three shades brighter that day." Ash, Brock, and Allison laugh. As they made their way to the tower, the ground started to shake. William emerges and uses his Zweihänder to crack the floor. The pieces hit each warrior, and they lose ten life points. "Ouch. What the fuck?" Allison shouts. William uses Super Smoke and charges at the group. Brock uses his arrows to shoot at William and hits him. William summons his black mantas, and they attack the group. Aelita hides behind a rock but the rock moves. Ash uses his blade to attack one manta, but it explodes and covers his leg with ice. Dawn jumps on a manta while battling another one. She defeats it, but the manta produces a bright light, and she loses her balance and is on the edge of a cliff. Brock races to her. "Jeremy, can you send another vehicle my way?" Brock asks. "Sure," Jeremy says, but the Supercomputer is running at its lowest speed. Allison comes face to face William. Aelita tries to help Allison out but creates a gap for William to fall into, but something goes wrong, putting Allison in great danger. At the hotel, Yumi and Ulrich shoot their classmates who attack them with coconut water. Odd finds Rocky, but he is too late. Rocky's head is smashed on the side, and he is bleeding. "He'll be fine. It is not all blood," Odd said. Yumi and Ulrich come face to face with Sissi, Nicholas, and Herve. "Love me!" Sissi shouts. Yumi shoots her cold. Ulrich does the same with Nicholas and Herve. Then the lights went out, and the emergency power came on and created a dark, misty scene. Jeremy's heart races as he tries to rematerialize the vehicles. As he types, sweat drips down his neck as he breaths. Then Jeremy turns around, and there is a black shadow. "Jeremy," Aelita screams as she is trapped in an igloo created by XANA. She closes her eyes and prays that someone finds her. Meanwhile, Allison is battling William above a skinny pathway above the digital sea. "William, you are not getting away with this," Allison states. William smiles and laughs as he waves his weapon above her head. Ash desperately tries to free his right leg from the ice beam. He looks up and sees a block of ice about to fall on Dawn, who is hanging on to dear life. Brock races to save Dawn but comes face to face with William. "Wait? Where is Allison?" Brock asks. Two Williams? Back at the hotel, Yumi and Ulrich hold their breath as they run down the hallway and see bodies on the floor. They open and door and Yumi faints when she sees her brother hanging above them. Odd, on the other hand, holds up and water shooter and shoots at his classmates. "Take this shit, XANA!" Odd shouts as he shoots, but he comes face to face with Kiwi, whose mouth is dripping green juice. "You drank Power Rage!" Kiwi's eyes have the Eye of XANA, and Odd has no choice but to take down man's best friend.

Odd shoots Kiwi with no hesitation. He looks over and sees Kiwi lying still but removing. "I'm sorry, my Diggy dog," Odd says. Ulrich examines Hiroki and sees that his foaming at the mouth and he is tied up. "Okay, a little coconut water should help you," Ulrich says. he wakes Yumi up with a kiss. "What happened? Who kissed me?" Yumi asks. "Nobody kissed you, and Hiroki is not dead. I think Rocky tied him up," Ulrich said. "Okay. I was worried." She stands up and sees Jim with green skin. "Run!" Yumi shouts. Odd turns around and sees Mr. Delmas with green skin. "Fuck!" Odd shouts as he runs. Jeremy is thrown across the room when Allison hits the shadow. "Brother," Allison exclaims. Ash J has green skin and is knocked out. "Thanks. What happened?" Jeremy asks. "William and I knocked each other out, but he made a clone of himself," Allison said. Dawn uses her multiply powers, and only her copies are smashed as she pulls herself over the edge. Ash frees his leg, and they two find Aelita. The igloo closes on on her. Brock uses William's weapon to hit Aelita's igloo. Aelita runs for it. Ash J wakes and grabs his sister. "Time to join us!" He teases as Allison shivers. "Never!" She shouts as she hit her brother, but he trie to bite her. Mr. Delmas corners Odd, and he runs out of coconut water. Mr. Delmas grabs him. Odd feels the cold, grape breath on his body as he slowly wets his pants. He feels his energy disappearing. Jim holds Yumi and Ulrich. Jim's body order is substantial, and that causes Yumi to faint, and Jim bites her. "Yumi!" Ulrich tries to reach for the water shooter, but Jim's nails grip his Adam's apple, and he passes out. Ash J bites his sister but not before she sprays him with water. "What was that?" Jeremy asks. "Coconut body spray. It seems to work," Allison says. Aelita enters the tower as Brock defeats William 2. As Aelita enters the code, Allison turns green and grabs Jeremy. "I have to set up the RTTP." Allison bites Jeremy in two places as Aelita enters the code. The RTTP activates.

Back at the hotel, Odd does not want Power Rage. "No way. I don't want that!" Odd said. "Well, I heard that one lucky person will turn green if they drink one," Dawn says. "Really," Ulrich says. "I wonder who?" Allison says. "Look?" Jeremy says. Sissi is cursing up a storm. "She the one," Aelita said. "How was she during the attack?" Ash asks. "She looked better than normal," Yumi teases. "Not funny!" Brock says. "Well, she did," Yumi says as the group laughs.
