Sanne has been on edge since the last attack. She was always ready for a Sora attack as well as a Xana attack. She had stopped training and working out with Krieger and made sure Sora had already taken a shower before she took one. It was hard being paranoid about two people attacking you but Sanne was dealing with it. Right now Sanne was in the Control Room at the Factory watching TV. She wanted to work on computer programs but couldn't stay on track. Sanne flips through channels looking for something to watch when she sees a news bulletin. "Hey it's Milly, what are Tamiya and Milly reporting on today?"
"We come to you live from the St. Charles Medical Ward where a resident has escaped from the mental asylum. So far there is no information on how a Miss Elisabeth Delmas escaped. An eye witness reports she was able to break the door to her room off after escaping from her straight jacket. If you see this woman," A picture appears on the screen. "Please call the number at the bottom of the screen. Do not try to stop her on your own."
"Oh crap, this has to be Xana." Sanne brings up the Super Scan and watches it. "No, all there. It has to be the Tower in Sector 5." Sanne gets her phone out and calls Krieger.
"Hello Sanne." Instead of Krieger answering Sora answers it. "Krieger's a little to busy with his girlfriend to play, call back later." Sora hangs up on Sanne. A minute later Krieger comes back from his room with a movie. "How did you get this movie so fast? It just came out in theaters."
"The internet is a great thing isn't it?" Krieger leaves it at that.
"Damn it." Sanne tried calling again but Sora must have turned Krieger's phone off. "Damn it I shouldn't have told her the truth." Sanne calls Skitz when Krieger doesn't answer his phone. "Skitz, Xana did something. Ms. Delmas ripped the door off her room and escaped the mental asylum."
"Whoa, ok, that definitely sounds like our favorite idiot. I'll be there to make sure he's ok." Sanne is confused but then hears another voice. After a few seconds of talking Sanne can hear clearer and realizes Skitz is with Barack.
"Oh, ok. They said it was family only so Barack can't come." Sanne and Skitz hang up. Sanne then calls Ark. "Hey favorite idiot Xana's attacking." Sanne laughs a little. "If you're at the school could you get Krieger? He's with Sora and won't answer his phone."
"We'll be right there, Sanne." Ark had checked the caller I.D. on his phone. "Why did you call me an idiot?"
"I called your sister first."
"That explains it." They hang up. Ark had gotten in a fight with his sister earlier over the way she was acting. "Mira we have to go to the Factory. Please don't yell at my sister when we get there."
"I won't Ark that would be stupid." Mira wanted to but she didn't want to make Ark mad. She hated holding back but Ark told her that his sister was blood and as much as he liked her if the two kept fighting he couldn't break up with his sister. Mira got the message and kept herself from yelling or fighting with Skitz. "I'm sorry you two are fighting."
"It's no big deal we fought all the time back at home." But not like this. "Come on beautiful." Ark kisses Mira on the lips then they leave. "But first we have to go to the gym to get Krieger." Ark assumed Krieger would be at the gym but when they get there he doesn't see him. "Maybe he's the target of the attack. We better hurry." The two run for the sewer entrance not knowing Krieger was just fine, better then fine, back in Sora's room.
"Yes, Master Xana, yes, thank you." Ms. Delmas was walking down the road towards the Factory talking to herself. "I'll kill them for you my son. I, I will kill them all!" She stumbles a little but keeps moving towards the Factory. "Kill the children of your enemy!"
"Alarm, wait, oh crap." Sanne sees it isn't her friends but the escaped Ms. Delmas. "Lock down. I still don't have the hang of this!" Sanne tries to lock down the elevator but a black mist comes out of the control panel and knocks her down. "Stay away from me!"
"Hello Sanne. My mother is coming to convince you to join me." Xana grabs Sanne by the throat then picks her up. "She's quite insane. Who knows what she will do to you. Oh I hate to think what she would do to a young girl like yourself. Being the daughter of her former friends then enemies. She hates your mother and her friends for something that happened decades ago."
"You made her insane!" Sanne struggles but can't break Xana's grasp. "Let me go!"
"She was insane before I did anything to her. Unless you consider holding a grudge against someone you went to school with for over twenty years normal." Xana throws Sanne down onto the floor as the elevator doors open. "Hello mother. How nice to see you again."
"Son, oh, Xana, you've made me so proud." Ms. Delmas stumbles and falls over as she tries to walk over to Xana.
"You're weak mother. I'm sorry they kept you in that small room for so long. Allow me to make it up to you." Xana sends energy into Ms. Delmas who stands up afterwards.
"Ms. Delmas stop!" Sanne backs away from Ms. Delmas. "Please, what are you doing?" Ms. Delmas reaches down to Sanne and grabs Sanne by the hair. "Let me go Ms. Delmas!"
"You little shit I should have punished you the second you stepped on campus!" Ms. Delmas smacks Sanne with the back of her hand. "Think you're better then me because your parents have money!" Ms. Delmas spits on Sanne. "I'll kill you! You and all your snotty little friends!" Ms. Delmas punches Sanne in the face. "I'll kill you and send your skin to your parents!" Ms. Delmas punches Sanne several times before Xana grabs her arm.
"Stop mother. She is necessary to my plans. Also her friends have arrived. Take care of them while I make this girl pay. I'll make sure she gets what she deserves mother." Xana kisses Ms. Delmas on the forehead. "Goodbye mother." Xana turns into a black mist along with Sanne and goes to Lyoko as the elevator comes down and the doors open.
"Holy crap it's Ms. Delmas." Ark was the first one to see her. "Is she possessed or just herself?"
"What did you do to Sanne?" Skitz looks around but doesn't see her friend. "Where is she!?"
"My son is making that little bitch pay! Now for you little shits what will I do?" Ms. Delmas walks towards the three teens. "One of you is missing. Krieger, my son said Krieger was in your group."
"He, Xana did something to him." Ark still assumed Krieger was the target. "Where is he?"
"He did nothing to that boy. He wants me to kill you little shits and make your parents cry when I send your broken bones to them!" Ms. Delmas lunges at Ark and tackles him to the floor.
"Get off of me you crazy-" Ark is punched in the face breaking his nose. "Aaaa!" He screams in pain.
"Leave him alone!" Skitz and Mira attack Ms. Delmas knocking her off of Ark. They work together pinning her to the floor. "Do we have anything to tie her up with?" Skitz looks around.
"I have my belt. Would that work?" Skitz nods and Ark takes it off. Skitz and Mira struggle with Ms. Delmas but get the belt looped around her wrists. "Stay down!" Skitz grabs Ms. Delmas by her hair and slams her face into the floor. "Or we'll hurt you some more."
"Crap, what do we do with her?" Mira stands up. "And where is Sanne? And Krieger?"
"That little bitch is on Lyoko where my son will do with her as he pleases!" Ms. Delmas laughs insanely. "Make her pay, make her pay!" Ms. Delmas says this over and over again.
"Shut up!" Ark takes a shoe off and unrolls a sock off his foot. He stuffs it in Ms. Delmas's mouth. "If he has her on Lyoko then we need to get there before Xana makes her his host."
"I'll set up the auto transfer." Skitz goes to the control panel and tries to find Sanne. "Sanne! Answer me!" She yells into the headset.
"Ice Sector! Near the Way Tower!"
"Ok we're coming!" Skitz brings up the auto transfer program. "Ark in the middle Scanner I'm the right Scanner Mira you're in the left Scanner." They run onto the elevator and take it down to the Scanner Room. They run into the Scanners and soon land on Lyoko near the Way Tower.
"Sanne!" Ark creates his spear then gets on his disc. The Schipizoa has Sanne and Xana is on the ground screaming in pain. The transfer was almost over and part of Dante was being ripped out of his body.
"Die!" Mira throws a Kodachi at the Schipizoa but an energy shield comes up around Sanne.
"Yes, it is mine." Sanne is dropped to the Sector. "The host is mine! She is mine! And now you'll die." Sanne floats towards her friends when someone else arrives on Lyoko.
"No, what did you do to my son!" Ms. Delmas sparks with energy. "My son what happened to you?!" Ms. Delmas runs over to Dante's body.
"Ah there she is. Such a mess isn't she?" Xana, now in Sanne's body, points his hand towards Ms. Delmas. When he fires an energy bolt at her Ms. Delmas absorbs it. "Strange. I seem to have carried some of Dante's emotions for his mother." Sanne closes her eyes then charges energy into her left hand. "But I do not!" She throws the energy orb at Ms. Delmas but it is absorbed again. "No, damn him!" Sanne points her hand at Dante and tries to destroy it but Ms. Delmas throws her body in front of it and absorbs the energy.
"Leave my son alone! How dare you hurt my son!" Ms. Delmas attacks Sanne and they wrestle on the ground. "My son is the Prince of Lyoko and I am the Queen!" Ms. Delmas uses her new powers from Xana to attack Sanne. As they wrestle a strange pink energy surrounds the two.
"No!" The other Lyoko Warriors stand and watch. It was over. Sanne was Xana's new host now. They'd have to call their parents and tell them what had happened. "Sanne no." Skitz sits down feeling like she was crying even though she couldn't on Lyoko.
"No, what is this?" The strange energy wraps around Sanne and Ms. Delmas and forms a cocoon of energy. "This can't be happening, no!" The energy explodes sending the three Lyoko Warriors back to Earth.
"No…" Skitz cries while sitting on the floor in the Scanner Room.
"I, Ark, I'm so sorry." Mira puts a hand on his shoulder. "I, I, what do we do?" Mira starts to cry with Ark and Skitz. They cry and don't hear the middle Scanner operate. "What are we going to do?"
"Nothing." Sanne falls out of the Scanner. "What happened?" Her last memory was of Ms. Delmas punching her.
"Sanne, you, you really don't know?" Skitz hugs Sanne. "Xana got you. We were too late, we were weak. I'm so sorry."
"But I'm here. How could I have escaped?" Sanne looks up. "I have to check the Super Computer." Sanne climbs up the ladder to the Control Room. She goes to the control panel and loads up a screen to see what looks like Ms. Delmas. "What happened to her?" The data coming across the screen had to be wrong. "No, wait, then Dante…" Sanne sees the information and can't believe it. "It can't be, then, this means that Dante, no way."
"No!" The control panel explodes in Sanne's face knocking her down as Xana comes out of Lyoko. "Your powers put me in this meat bag body and won't let me escape!" Xana was now in Ms. Delmas's body! "You little shit I'll kill you!" Ms. Delmas charges with energy.
"Aaaa!" Sanne screams when a bolt of energy strikes her.
"I'll kill you and your friends then I'll go and kill your parents!"
"Stop!" Ark had climbed up the ladder when he heard the explosion and now attacks Ms. Delmas.
"Die!" Ark is hit with an energy beam.
"No, Ark, run away." Sanne struggles to get up when Ms. Delmas strikes her down.
"I'll kill you now!" Ms. Delmas charges energy in her hand. "I'll kill you and show your bodies to your parent's right before I kill them!" Sanne laughs evilly as she raises the energy over her head. "Die, die all of you." Ms. Delmas throws the energy at the children.
"No!" Someone moves in front of it and is hit. When the energy hits them they explode. Blood and gore covers the room also covering Sanne and Ark and Xana. The blood drips off of them.
"No! My son…" Dante having what was keeping him on Lyoko ripped out of him when the transfer happened was able to go to Earth. He went up to help Sanne and saved her life. "This is your fault! This is your entire fault! My son!" Ms. Delmas starts to cry as energy sparks around her. "No, you can't be dead. I'll take you to Lyoko and you'll be fine." Ms. Delmas grabs a piece of flesh and turns into a black mist taking it to Lyoko.
"No, Dante. Was that Dante?" Sanne, covered in blood and gore, sits up. "No." Sanne tries to stand up but slips in the blood and falls down. "Dante." She tries to wipe the blood off her face but only gets the blood on her hands on her face. "Oh God." She throws up.
"No, my son." Ms. Delmas is on Lyoko with Dante. When she took the piece of flesh to Lyoko it did to Dante what it did to any DNA. "You'll be ok." She strokes his hair. "You're fine now."
"Mom?" Dante looks at his mother. He hadn't seen her since the moment he killed her. "How?"
"Sanne escaped but now I have the power and I have you."
"No!" Dante backs away. He sees the Way Tower and runs to it. "No, this is my fault. My mother didn't deserve this." Dante sits down on the platform. "This is my fault." He shakes his head. "Damn you Xana."
"No!" Ms. Delmas attacks the Way Tower but doesn't enter. "You're my son! Listen to me, do as I say!" Suddenly energy comes out and pushes Ms. Delmas away from the Tower. "No, stop, Xana stop!" Ms. Delmas drops to her knees as energy comes up around her. Soon the energy drops and Xana's Symbol appears in her eyes. "Damn. I was so close. Next time. Yes, next time I will get Sanne." Ms. Delmas turns into a black mist and goes to Sector 5.
"No, Dante, why, why Dante?" Sanne was still crying when a screen appears on the monitor.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" Dante looks out and sees the mess left behind by his mother. "Sanne you should take a shower and get clean clothes." Sanne looks up and sees Dante.
"Dante!" She gets up and runs to the screen kissing it. "Er, um, are you ok?" Sanne pulls away blushing.
"Yes Sanne. My mother she, she, Xana has her."
"I know but we can get her back for you. We can free your mom." Sanne puts a hand on the screen. "Ok?"
"It's my fault. It's my entire fault."
"No it isn't Dante. This is Xana's fault, my fault! I made my friends keep the computer on and everything that has happened since then is my fault." Sanne hangs her head in disgrace.
"Sanne don't do that. I, I'm finally back to myself I don't want to see you cry." Dante puts a hand where Sanne's hand is. "Maybe I could come to Earth and you can cry on my shoulder if you have to cry."
"What?" Sanne hears this then looks at another screen on the monitor. "You can come to Earth!" She stops crying and smiles. "Dante, I, come to Earth now." He smiles back at her. "Wait, what about the Tower?"
"It is deactivated. Xana's plan failed. Please bring me back to Earth Sanne. I want to see you." Sanne nods and her fingers fly over the keyboard. Dante disappears from the screen.
"Whoa, Dante." Ark and the others see him climb up from the Scanner Room on the ladder.
"I think we need to clean this up." Dante motions to the mess that used to be him. "I'm sorry for this. We could do a return but…" Dante stops when Sanne tackles and hugs him.
"Dante, I, I missed you. You're ok, you're really here." Dante hugs Sanne back not caring about all the blood.
"I'm back, I'm front, and I'm both here." Dante looks Sanne in the eyes. "I'm sorry for making you cry."
"It's ok it was my stupidity that lost you." Sanne looks up into Dante's eyes. "I'm sorry." She hugs him again.
"About what?"
"I'll tell you later." Sanne lets him go. "But you, we, I don't know what to do with you."
"I'll stay on Lyoko for now. I can deactivate Towers and fight now. Xana may have my mother but I know I can fight."
"Not right now. I, I, come with me Dante. I want to take you out to eat, and see a movie, and find flowers so you can smell them. Before you go back to Lyoko you have to do everything."
"I can always come back tomorrow and the next day."
"I want to do this now." Sanne and Dante get on the elevator and leave.
"Oh crap. Krieger isn't going to like this." Ark looks down at the pools of blood. "I guess she's leaving this mess to us."
"Call that dujac and make him do it!" Skitz pushes the button for the elevator and it comes back down. "This is his fault." Skitz gets on the elevator and leaves still angry about Krieger and Sora.
"Wow she is still mad about that?" Skitz had ignored Krieger since he chose Sora over Sanne when Xana said he was going to kill whoever he didn't choose. Sanne said Krieger knew Xana wouldn't kill her so chose Sora but Skitz didn't believe Krieger had that in mind.
"Call him and have him help us." Ark calls Krieger but gets no answer.
"Where the hell is he?"
Krieger and Sora were currently missing the movie as they made out on the bed. Krieger never checked his phone since he knew it was on. Of course he didn't know Sora turned it off.
"Ark how do we clean this?"
"We need to get some J INC cleaning powder from the supply closet. Throw enough of that stuff around and this place should be clean. Hopefully it will be clean." The two leave the Factory and go to the school to get the revolutionary cleaning powder made by J INC.
Sanne, after changing clothes, and Dante grabs burgers at a fast food restaurant then go to see a movie. Sanne feels Dante's hand on hers as they watch the movie. "Dante I'm sorry." Sanne pulls her hand away from Dante's. "I, I know we talked and stuff but I, well." She sighs. "I'm sorry. I like Krieger, a lot. He has a girlfriend but I really like him."
"I knew you did." Dante puts an arm around Sanne's shoulders. "I had fun talking with you but I knew you loved him. The way you talked about him and looked at him it was obvious."
"I, love, I…"
"It's ok Sanne. Thank you for taking me here. I, it helps." Dante sighs as he thinks about all he did when Xana was in him.
"Dante it's ok if you want to cry. You didn't do those things, Xana did. But I'm here for you, friend."
"Friend, thank you." Dante and Sanne continue watching the movie before they go back to the Factory.
"Wow, they did this fast." Ark and Mira had used the cleaning power to absorb and destroy the blood. They then used brooms to push the gore into a pile and cleaned it up. They were going to make sure the others paid them back somehow for what they had to do.
"I'll see you tomorrow Sanne, right?"
"Yes. Thank you Dante."
"Thank you Sanne." They hug each other then Dante takes the elevator down to the Scanner Room and gets in the middle Scanner. Sanne sends him to the Way Tower in the Forest Sector. "Goodnight Sanne."
"Goodnight Dante." Sanne waves at the screen then leaves. Dante sits down on the platform.
"Wow. I miss Earth already." He leans backwards and thinks about what he did on Earth. He did a lot of evil his first time but Sanne made him feel better. She was a friend he could talk to. She was someone who cared about him and could help him free his mother from Xana's control.
A/N Ok, Dante's free, Sissi is the Killer Queen, and stuff. Oh duh, another song turned into a story.
