Sanne is tossing and turning in her bed. She was having a dream that seemed real. It started with her waking up, going to breakfast, and other normal things. But before lunch Xana attacked with some strange metal orbs that fired lasers. She sees Krieger being killed first. Sora would run over to his body before being killed. The students would scream and the metal orbs would attack them. She'd see students being killed and even teachers being killed by the metal orbs. Ark would try to protect his sister but was shot down. Skitz and Mira would try to drag the body away but are killed leaving Sanne alone. Sanne would run into the woods for the sewer entrance but there was Xana, in his new host, Ms. Delmas. She would be taken and made Xana's new host and that was when she woke up. "I hate that dream." Sanne breaths hard and curls up into a ball. "I hate it."
"It's ok Sanne it's only a dream." Skitz had been trying to wake Sanne up but never could until Sanne was possessed by Xana. "It's only a dream." Skitz lies down next to Sanne on the bed and holds onto her. "It was only a dream." Skitz tries to comfort Sanne and soon both fall asleep.
The next three nights the same dream comes to Sanne. She was starting to eat less, felt sick all the time, and looked horrible. Jim tried to talk to her but she always told him it was nothing or women problems. Finally he is able to convince her to talk to the nurse who gives her some sleeping pills. Sanne fell asleep easier but the dream still came to her and it still woke Sanne up. "I hate that dream." Sanne looks over and sees Skitz is asleep. Apparently the sleeping pills kept her from yelling loud enough to wake Skitz up. "I hate it, I hate it, I hate it." She rocks back and forth. "Hold me Skitz." Sanne had been getting used to having Skitz hold onto her. Sanne continues to rock back and forth for an hour before falling asleep.
Finally after nearly two weeks of having the same dream it stops. Sanne is finally able to get some sleep but now she gets to much sleep. "Sanne, get up." Skitz shakes Sanne. The alarm had been going off but Sanne didn't get up. "Come on Sanne." Sanne's eyes open.
"Oh, hi Skitz. What time is it?" Skitz points at the clock and Sanne sits up in bed. "Oh crap I'm going to be late." She stops. Why does this seem so familiar? She shakes her head and grabs clean clothes. Since she stopped working out she stopped taking showers at night.
"You won't be late you just won't have as much time to eat breakfast." Sanne and Skitz go and get a shower then hurry to the cafeteria.
"Oops." Sanne hit Ark's juice and spills it. Whoa, Déjà vu but I know I never did that before. "Sorry Ark take mine."
"Sanne you need all the juice you can get." Ark gets up and gets some napkins to clean up the juice. "Oh crap, thanks Sanne." Ark smiles to show he wasn't mad at Sanne as everyone sees the stain on the front of his pants.
"Ark do we need to get you a diaper?" Skitz laughs at her joke as do the others. Sanne laughs a little then stops. What is going on? Why does this all feel like it happened before?
"Um, Ark, you better change now or you'll be late."
"Then I get your sausage patty since I can't carry the rest of my eggs. You have them. Deal?" Ark grabs the sausage patty off of Sanne's tray then runs out of the cafeteria.
"Ew, these aren't even real eggs." Sanne pokes at the greenish yellow mess that the school called eggs. "I just lost my appetite. We better head for class." She pushes the tray away.
"Yeah, everyone else is leaving." The kids leave for class.
As Sanne sits in history class she starts to fall asleep. When she falls asleep the dream comes, or is it? It was like living through that morning and then breakfast. "Sanne, wake up." Krieger shakes Sanne who does. "He didn't notice you were sleeping yet so you're ok."
"Oh, My, God." Now Sanne knew why everything seemed so familiar. This was her dream. This was how her dream went! "I, we need, the Factory. We can stop this before it starts." Sanne looks around and tries to figure out how to get out of class. "Fake sick, no, maybe."
In Moscow at a J INC research building an American was studying the newest in security devices. "Very nice, you can set the lasers to different power levels just like we requested."
"Yes Sir General." Jeremie had worked on the J INC Security Drones for the past several weeks. "You set them up with the set parameters and it will guard the area for twelve hours before you need to recharge it. If you buy in bulk I can offer them for thirty thousand Euros each but if you're just going to buy one or two to test out it will be seventy thousand Euros each."
"We've been planning on pulling troops out of the lower states so we can deal with the threat coming from China. If these do everything that we wanted them to we won't need to send troops around elementary schools to keep the republicans out. Those poor eight year old boys…" The General reaches out towards one of the metal orbs that would save the Pentagon millions.
"Be careful they may float but they are heavy. I use the magnetic field of the Earth to…" The Security Drone leaps out of the General's hands and crashes into the wall. "Hey, who activated the Drone Prototype?" Jeremie hears a click through the intercom.
"We didn't Mr. Belpois it, the data, like a virus. Come here Sir more of them are activating." Several J INC workers are trying to shut down the Security Drones but nothing seems to be working.
Back at Kadic Academy Sanne decides to take one for the team. She grabs a pencil and shoves it down her throat. A few seconds later she throws up. "Sanne!" Krieger pushes away from the table. "Uh Mr. Delmont she, she needs to go to the infirmary."
"Xana, Xana's attacking." Sanne whispers this to him.
"And uh, I could uh, carry her if she passes out but if she needs to go into the bathroom I'll need a girl to come."
"I'll come." Skitz raises her hand assuming it was something to do with Xana. "But I might need help if she passes out in the bathroom, Mira, want to help?"
"Ok." Mira looks over at Ark who shrugs his shoulders. All of the positions were taken.
"Get her out of here. I'll have to call the janitor to clean that mess up." Sanne and the others leave the room.
"Sanne what did you do?" Skitz was concerned about Sanne. Even if it was Xana, Sanne had still thrown up.
"The teachers have to be suspicious about us disappearing all the time. I took one for the team to make it look real." Sanne puts a hand on her stomach. "Now I really don't feel good."
"Where's the Tower?"
"Xana hasn't attacked yet. I, Skitz, my dream, this is it." The others look at Skitz.
"She's been having a dream that Xana attacks but Sanne this can't be it." Skitz didn't believe in psychic powers.
"It is, the spilling of Ark's juice, getting up late, falling asleep in class. That's exactly how my dream went. But if we get to the Factory now then maybe we can change the future."
"Sanne I'm sure this is just sleep deprivation. Let's take you to the infirmary so you can get more sleep ok?" Skitz is interrupted by a beeping noise, the Super Scan from Sanne's Jpocket.
"I told you." Sanne and the others run for the school's sewer entrance since it was closer and right now Sanne and Skitz weren't worried about being caught. Sanne had told Skitz the details of the dream enough times that Skitz was just as scared as Sanne was.
"Aaaa!" Several metal orbs float onto the campus where the gym class sees them. "What are they!?"
"Kids calm down and go into the school building." Jim wasn't sure what the metal orbs were but didn't like the way they moved or looked. One of the orbs floats towards him and a small opening appears. "What is this thing?" The object seems to look Jim over then fires a laser at him. "Ow!" Jim grabs his leg and drops to the ground. The metal orb fires another laser hitting Jim on the back. "Aaaa!" He screams in pain as the laser burns his skin.
"Oh crap." The new Lyoko Warriors were in the sewer passage when they see three metal orbs floating towards them. "Where did Xana get those things?" Sanne and the others push faster on the skateboards but the metal orbs float after them and start to fire lasers.
"Aaaa!" Mira drops to the ground when she is hit in the back of the knee by a laser. "Stop!" Another laser hits her.
"We can't leave her behind." Krieger stops on his skateboard and turns around to help Mira.
"Like you care Krieger." Skitz was still having problems with Krieger after he chose Sora over Sanne. Sanne told Skitz that Krieger had to know Xana wouldn't kill her so chose Sora but Skitz doubted this. "Fine, you help Mira I'll protect Sanne." Skitz and Sanne continue as Krieger goes and attacks the metal orb.
"Man that hurts." Krieger kicked it and was shocked. Part of the J INC Security Drone's defense was once activated you had to deactivate by remote since if you touched it you were shocked. He kicks it again knocking the metal orb back but two more show up. "Oh hell no. Mira get up I can't fight all of them for you." They circle around him making a clicking noise as they laser ports open and close. "Ow!" Krieger grabs his shoulder where he was hit. He sees another one about to fire and dodges it. He rolls on the ground landing on the shoulder that was hit. "Damn it!" The pain was coursing through his shoulder to his brain but he had to do something. Mira starts to stand up but collapses when she tries to stand on the leg that was hit. The laser had cut the tendons in the back of the knee crippling her.
"Run, get away." A metal orb fires a laser hitting Mira again.
"I won't run away!" Krieger jumps and kicks a metal orb hard knocking it into a second one. The two metal orbs shock each other and both fall in to the sewer water. "I can beat these things." Krieger dodges a laser and grabs a third orb. The metal orb shocks him but he takes the pain as he throws the metal orb at the fourth metal orb destroying them both. "Damn that hurt." He falls forward in pain. His body had been running on adrenaline and now was out of it. Krieger breathes hard as pain courses through his body. He had been hit several times and the shocks he received from the metal orbs had nearly killed him. He didn't know it but the shocking had been interrupting his heart beats and if he hadn't been in such good shape he would have had a heart attack.
"No, Krieger, don't be dead." Mira crawls over to him and sees his chest rise and fall. "Ark we need you." Mira was unable to walk and she wouldn't be able to carry Krieger even if she wasn't hurt.
Back at the school dozens of metal orbs swarm around the school looking for the targets given to them by Xana. "This isn't good." Ark was hiding in a closet after running away from a metal orb. "This has to be Xana's attack. I have to get to the sewers without those things seeing me." He opens the closet door and looks out. "Clear, have to run." Ark runs out of the closet and decides the school entrance would be the closest and didn't worry about being caught.
"Sanne stay down." Skitz had climbed up first and saw several metal orbs flying around the school entrance. "We won't be able to make it alone. But, wait, we already changed the future."
"By how much? I, they could still be dead." Sanne was worried sick over Krieger and Mira. "We have to call Jim and Samantha. They can help us." Sanne reaches for her phone when Skitz stops her.
"Sanne if we do that they might snap like they usually do." Skitz gets her phone out and calls her brother. "Ark where are you?!" She yells into it due to panic and fear for her brother.
"In the sewers. Are you guys ok?"
"Krieger and Mira are down I think but Sanne and I are at the Factory. We can't get in because there are these metal orb things flying around." Skitz can hear the buzzing sound as one flies near.
"The same ones that attacked the school? What's Sanne's plan?"
"To call Jim and Samantha." Skitz closes the sewer lid and climbs back down. "But I don't want to do that."
"Well I'll be there soon and, wait." Ark sees Krieger and Mira. "Oh god no, I'll call you right back Skitz." Ark hurries over to Mira and Krieger. "Mira, are you ok? Please be ok."
"I'm hurt but Krieger is worse." Mira smiles when she sees Ark. "He did something stupid but it worked."
"That's all that matters." Ark sees Krieger is breathing. "I can drag both of you but it might take awhile."
"Don't drag us. Put us on our skateboards." Mira had already grabbed hers. "I don't know where Krieger's skateboard is." Ark looks around and doesn't see it. "Do you see it Ark?"
"It probably went in the sewer water. I'll put him on mine." Ark takes a minute to position Krieger and Mira then takes them down the sewer passage. He then gets his phone out. "I found Krieger and Mira. They're hurt but the Scanners should heal them right?"
"If we can get them to the Scanners they will be healed. Like I said those things are out there."
"Damn we might have to call Sanne's grandparents. Jim at least to help with these two." Ark sure wasn't going to be able to pull both up. "I, I vote to call Jim and Samantha."
"Well if you vote for it and Sanne votes for it. See you soon Ark." Skitz and Ark hang up. "Sanne go ahead and call them." Skitz sits down on a rung of the ladder as Sanne makes the first call to Jim.
"His cell phone is ringing." Three students had gone out and dragged Jim's body back into the gym after the metal orbs left. "Should we answer it?"
"Let's see who it is." Sora leans over and pulls Jim's Jcell out of his pocket. "Sanne?" She sees the caller I.D. "He is her grandfather." Sora answer it. "Hello Sanne." Sanne nearly drops her phone when she hears Sora's voice. "Sorry but Jim can't answer right now."
"Is he ok? What happened?"
"He's hurt but he's breathing. Where are you?"
"Uh, I'm, hiding. Have you seen any of those things?"
"Yes I have." Sora hangs up on Sanne. "I wonder where Krieger is." Sora calls Krieger's number but Krieger can't answer it. "He better be ok. He better not be with Sanne."
Back in the sewers Ark arrives with Mira and Krieger. "So when are they getting here?"
"Jim's been hurt but Samantha, well, Sanne will be ok." Ark looks over at Sanne who was crying.
"She snapped again didn't she?" Skitz nods. "What did she expect? We'll just do a return anyways to blank her memory." Ark goes over to Sanne. "It's going to be ok you know she just said that stuff because of Xana."
"I, I hope Jim is ok." Sanne didn't want him or anyone to die. She wasn't crying because of what Samantha said but because she felt like she let everyone down. If she had realized her dream was coming true earlier they would have already been at the Factory, already on Lyoko.
"Is Krieger ok?" Skitz kneels down next to Krieger. "His skin feels really hot." Skitz pulls her hand away.
"Yeah, he, he saved me." Mira was hurt but she felt bad that Krieger got hurt protecting her. "What can we do? I'm useless because of my knee." Mira points to her injured knee.
"We can wait for my grandmother to get here." Sanne cries a little more hoping everyone would be ok.
Back at Kadic Academy Ms. Delmas, the new and improved Ms. Delmas, walks across the campus. "I used to own this. This entire campus was mine! They took it from me! Now I will take it from them!" Ms. Delmas creates an energy orb in her hands. "The library still has plenty of books it will burn nicely!" She throws the energy orb at the library and it bursts into flames. "Yes, burn!" She laughs insanely. "They are at the Factory but wouldn't dare enter. I will make my rise to power while they cower in the sewers! Then I will hunt down the parents of those little shits and crush them!" Ms. Delmas watches the library burn. There were no students inside at the time but Ms. Delmas didn't care.
Samantha hurries down the sewer passage when she sees the kids. "You idiots, who are you?" She points towards Mira.
"I'm Mira, uh, I've been…"
"It doesn't matter who you are! You dip shits released Xana!"
"Well she didn't since she wasn't friends with us yet." Skitz can't believe she is defending Mira. It is probably because she is madder at Krieger then at Mira. "Look we have a problem Samantha. Two of us are injured and Jim is injured to. We need your help to stop the attack."
"How long have you been doing this?"
"About three weeks. This is only his second attack." Sanne feels bad for lying but knows she had to or else Samantha would ask more, harder questions. "Please help us grandma."
"Well what are you doing down here?"
"Xana sent these metal orb things. We can't get past them with those two." Skitz points to Mira and Krieger.
"It would take to long for your parents to get here. Oh I'm sure they will be happy to find out you released Xana. Jeremie was working on something I'm sure he will be more then happy to drop it all just to clean up this mess!" Samantha was mad. These kids had released Xana. She was going to make sure these kids never saw each other again until they were kicked out of their houses when they turned eighteen. "Well hell you morons let Xana loose why not just deal with your problem?" Samantha crosses her arms.
"But we need them with us." Sanne kneels down next to Krieger to make sure he was still breathing.
"How sweet but unless you can carry them up to the surface and then get them down to the elevator they are staying here in the sewers." Samantha stands over Sanne and Krieger. "If Xana attacked the school you'll have to do a return. I'm sure that will alert the others."
"Uh, yeah, I guess." Sanne stands up. "Samantha, why didn't you ever tell me Franz was my grandfather and not Jim?" Sanne is answered by a hard smack to her face dazing her.
"That man is not your grandfather! Franz is nothing like a grandfather! Jim loved and cared for you like a granddaughter he is your grandfather!" Samantha chuckles. "If you know that then you know my real name. I'm disgusted to have someone like you to have it."
"Samantha, Sanne, I'm sorry but we didn't mean for this to happen." Sanne calls her grandmother by her real name. "Right now we have to go to Lyoko and deactivate the Tower."
"Yes we do. Let's see what is holding you back." Samantha, Older Sanne, climbs up the ladder and opens the sewer lid. "There's nothing here." Older Sanne climbs out and waits for the others. "Looks like the other two can come." Ark helps Mira up first then with Sanne's help gets Krieger up to the surface. Ark helps drag the two to the Factory edge.
"Man Krieger's heavy. All that muscle weighs a ton." Ark wipes his forehead to clear off sweat. He was getting tired from dragging Mira and Krieger. "I wonder where they went."
"Who knows." Sanne and the others get to the Factory taking longer then normal to carry Mira and Krieger.
Ms. Delmas knew where the metal orbs had gone. Ms. Delmas had gotten bored with destroying the school and decided to go after the closest Lyoko Warrior. Ms. Delmas watches as the Hermitage burns waiting for Samantha to run out. "Where is she? If Sanne Grimore Hopper dies in the fire I won't be able to have any fun!" Ms. Delmas uses her powers to put the fire out then blasts a hole in the front of the Hermitage. "Sanne! Yes, that's right. I know your real name!" Ms. Delmas walks into the Hermitage. "Mrs. Hopper, Mrs. Morales come out and play!" Ms. Delmas destroys a table then a couch. "Where are you!?" Ms. Delmas goes through the Hermitage destroying it piece by piece.
"It's been so long since I've done this." Older Sanne sits in the computer chair Little Sanne bought. "What happened to the original chair?"
"Xana destroyed it. Look, we can just set the auto transfer like I did last time." Little Sanne did not want Older Sanne to sit at the computer and find out just how many attacks there had been. "We need your help on Lyoko. We need all the help we can get to stop Xana."
"You'll need a lot more then my help but since you idiots," Older Sanne stops. "It's partially our fault. We sugar coated the stories. This isn't a game this is very dangerous. Get in the Scanners then I'll come."
"Don't forget to send the vehicles." Little Sanne hugs Older Sanne. "I'm so sorry we didn't mean for this to happen."
"You got the vehicles to work already?" Little Sanne nods. "You've been using everything your mother and father made. Did you really think you could defeat Xana without them, without me?"
"I, we could, maybe. He's a lot weaker then he was before."
"Just get in the elevator then send it back up so I can use it." Older Sanne turns away from Little Sanne. Little Sanne and the others get on the elevator and take it down to the Scanner Room. Ark helps Mira as Sanne helps Krieger get in the Scanners. Skitz gets in the last Scanner available. "Transfer Krieger, Transfer Skitz, Transfer, uh, doesn't matter what her name is." Older Sanne completes the transfer to Lyoko. "Ok you two get in." Little Sanne and Ark get in the Scanners. "Transfer Sanne, Transfer Ark, Scanner Sanne, Scanner Ark, virtualization." They land on Lyoko as the vehicles appear. "I'll be down there in a few seconds." Soon Older Sanne lands on Lyoko. "We must head east." Older Sanne looks around the Ice Sector. "I never wanted to come back here again."
"I know and that's why we didn't tell you." Little Sanne goes over to the Overbike where Krieger was waiting for her. "Um, Mira, you can share the Overwing with my grandmother."
"Ok. Nice to meet you Samantha."
"Shut up." Samantha moves Mira out of the way and takes over the Overwing. "I'm guessing you deactivate the Towers Sanne."
"I can." Little Sanne was about to say something about Dante but stops. Older Sanne didn't need to know about Dante or Ms. Delmas. "Let's hurry." Little Sanne wraps her arms around Krieger's waist as he revs the engine and takes off east for the Tower.
Back on Earth Ms. Delmas is headed back to the Factory by flying through the air. "She went to Lyoko. I never thought they would call the Originals." Ms. Delmas's influence on Xana was strong but Xana was still there. "This could be a problem. I don't have the power I need to break out yet. I must make sure they do a return that blanks Sanne's, Samantha's memory." Ms. Delmas continues towards the Factory wondering what to do.
At Kadic Academy the fires are being put out. "Are there any injuries?" Milly and Tamiya from Action News Channel 42 were on the scene.
"So far we have several injuries but no fatalities. Please stay back. We have injured that need to go to the hospital." A fire fighter puts an arm up to keep Milly back as a stretcher comes by with an injured person.
"Jim!" Milly and Tamiya yell it at the same time.
"Huh? Those voices sound familiar." Jim can't turn his head due to the neck brace but looks around with his eyes.
"Jim, are you ok?"
"I'll be just fine don't worry you two." Milly and Tamiya stood over Jim so he could see them. "I'm more worried about my granddaughter and her friends. Could you two investigate for me?"
"A self interest story? Not really hard news but always good for a ratings bump." Milly and Tamiya smile at Jim as he is loaded into an ambulance. "So Milly where do you want to start?"
"Well his granddaughter might be near the dorm building or what's left of it." Milly and Tamiya head over to the dorm building to get interviews and help an old friend out.
Back on Lyoko the Lyoko Warriors, both old and new, see the Tower. "Samantha you should stay back since you can't go back to Earth like we can." Krieger was taking the lead.
"Then what am I here for?"
"Sanne can fight so she'll fight and you deactivate the Tower."
"No let her fight." Little Sanne couldn't let Older Sanne see the return to the past program. "You still have your powers right?"
"I should have some." Older Sanne closes her eyes and concentrates energy into her right hand. "Yes I have some."
"Ok then whatever Xana sends we'll fight it and I'll deactivate the Tower." Little Sanne leans over to whisper in Krieger's right ear. "Krieger I want to just drive for the Tower. We can't let Samantha deactivate the Tower. If she checks the return to the past program we're in big trouble." Little Sanne leans back not waiting for a response from Krieger.
"What to do what to do. If I don't send monster they'll be suspicious but if I send them I might send them all back." Ms. Delmas was stuck. "Maybe if I just, no, they'd be suspicious of only one or two monsters." Ms. Delmas watches as the Lyoko Warriors get closer to the Tower. "Yes, now I know what to do." Ms. Delmas sends two Assassins and a Mega Tank.
"Be careful Samantha." Mira was hanging on for dear life as Older Sanne flew the Overwing like a crazy person.
"I can handle them. I created them for years I think I can destroy them!" Older Sanne charges an energy orb in her right hand. "Out of our way!" She throws the energy orb and hits an Assassin destroying it.
"Ok, now attack." Ms. Delmas let one Assassin be destroyed easily before letting the remaining Assassin and Mega Tank attack.
"Whoa!" Krieger dodges a Mega Tank blast. "Ok Sanne here we go." Krieger gets his sword and shield out as he revs the engine. "Skitz, Ark, take care of the Assassin!" Krieger dodges another Mega Tank blast.
"We'll try!" Ark dodges lasers being fired by the Assassin while controlling his disc. When he gets closer he creates his spear. "Ok let's try something." Ark unwraps his tail from around his waist and wraps it around the spear. "Skitz distract it!" Ark prepares his attack.
"Extend!" Skitz extends her clubs as she dives down towards the Assassin. She blocks lasers with her clubs when Ark dives past her. "Be careful idiot!" Skitz nearly lost control of the Overboard when Ark dove past her.
"I don't have to be!" Ark uses his extended range from his tail to shove his spear into the Eye of the Assassin destroying it. The Mega Tank turns and fires at him. It hits his disc and knocks him off.
"I told you not to be an idiot." Skitz dives towards the Mega Tank but it closes up. "Sanne go!" Skitz beats on the Mega Tank with her clubs as Krieger drives by with Sanne on the Overbike. Sanne gets off the back and runs into the Tower. "She made it, good." Skitz's smile is interrupted by Samantha.
"You idiots!" Samantha yells at the new Lyoko Warriors. "If Xana really is weaker maybe it won't take us long. I hope you kids are punished so harshly you won't have anything left when you turn eighteen." Older Sanne's anger rises as Little Sanne launches a return.
Sanne wakes up without Skitz waking her up. "That was close. Maybe, we better check to make sure."
"Sanne I'm sure they're fine. Take a shower, eat breakfast. Don't worry if some one was, you know, we'll know sooner or later." Skitz hugs Sanne. "I'm more worried about you."
"Don't Skitz." Sanne pushes Skitz away. "I can handle it. I have to handle it, be ok with it, or our parents will be dragged back into this hell." Skitz hugs Sanne again. "Thanks Skitz."
"We can and will handle it. You know we all love you and know you can do this." Skitz tries to make sure Sanne knows she isn't alone in this. "Come on we need to shower again."
"I took a shower last night and I'm hungry."
"You should be since most of your meal ended up on the desk." Skitz makes a face. "You didn't have to."
"I wanted to make it so we wouldn't have to do a return but I was too late." The two get clean clothes and then after takes a shower go to the cafeteria to get a well deserved breakfast..
