Dante is at the mall after going to a movie. He made sure to buy lots of candy to eat during the movie. The movie and candy distracted him from the memories when he was controlled by his mother and father. He tried to block out the memories of seeing Sanne in the shower or changing and kissing Krieger. He liked Sanne too much to want to violate her like this. Dante rubs his temples trying to make the headache that was growing go away. He looks around wondering what to do next when he sees a girl with pink hair walking to the food court. "Sanne?" Dante walks over to the food court to talk to Sanne. "Hey, Sanne, over here!" She doesn't turn around. "Sanne!" Dante gets to her and puts a hand on her shoulder.
"What do you think you're doing?" She turns around and it isn't Sanne! "Why did you touch me?"
"I, um, thought you were my friend Sanne. I, uh, didn't know of anyone else with pink hair and I uh, um." Dante is embarrassed. "I'll just uh, go over there."
"Wait, does your friend have natural pink hair or does she dye it?"
"Uh, natural, so does her mother and grandmother."
"Really? Wow I thought I was the only one with natural pink hair. So, is she your friend or is she your friend friend?" After looking Dante over the girl likes what she sees.
"She's a friend. Um, I'm Dante, just Dante." Dante sticks his hand out. He wasn't used to talking to strangers and wasn't sure exactly what to do.
"Just Dante? Well, Just Dante, I'm UV."
"UV?"
"Well if you're going to give me your nickname then I'm giving you my nickname." UV shakes Dante's hand. "So Just what are you doing here?" UV is confused by Dante's introduction.
"No, my name is just Dante."
"Wait, you go buy your full name?"
"No my full name is Just Dante."
"So Just Dante what," Dante is sorry he said just Dante and tries to fix his mistake with UV.
"I don't have a last name that I know of. My name is Dante, only Dante, no last name." Dante had thought about his last name. It wasn't Delmas, Elisabeth wasn't his mother just an incubator for Xana.
"So you're an orphan?" Dante shakes his head. "Then what are you? A traveling wanderer just passing through?" UV is getting interested in this dark handsome stranger. "Like, you don't go to school?"
"No, I, I don't need it." Dante is getting uncomfortable with the questions that he couldn't answer. "Um, you were headed for the food court you like, um, want to eat together?" Dante figures if UV's mouth is full she won't be able to talk and ask questions. UV looks at Dante and he notices something. "Your eyes, they're red, why?" UV looks away.
"I um, I'm an albino. My eyes are like, naturally red and stuff. It means I mess up all my photos." She laughs a little. "Um, sure, let's get something to eat." They go to a booth and order food.
Sanne is at the Factory working with Franz. He had saved Dante, his advice freed Dante after she turned on him. This made her trust him even more. "Ok, so Dante was able to activate the Way Tower because he was in it? Then Xana could to if he went into it right?" Xana would never go into a Tower. You know that Sanne. You won't get that lucky with Xana. "I know. But if we were to put him in a situation that he needed the power of an activated Way Tower he might." That won't happen. I would find a way to activate it yourself so you can free me. Then I will be able to help you stop Xana myself. Dante did it before he could do it again. "I don't know if it is as easy as that. And I wouldn't know what to do with the power." I would. You would give me access to the Super Computer and I would use the power. "Ok, um, but I want to do some tests first so I…" Sanne is interrupted by the Super Scan. "Crap, I have to call the others. Franz, go away so they don't see you." Yes Sanne. Franz goes away as Sanne calls the other Lyoko Warriors.
"What? Ok." Krieger and Sanne hang up. "Sora, Sanne says Xana is attacking." Sora frowns.
"I was almost done with this. How much you want to bet we'll have to do a return so I'll have to start all over again?" Sora and Krieger were doing homework together since Sanne was busy working on the Super Computer.
"Well, remember the answers so you won't take as long." Krieger grabs his school bag and puts his books and homework in it. "Wait, I'll just leave my stuff here." Krieger and Sora leave her dorm room then hear an explosion. "I'm guessing that's Xana's attack."
"What, blowing stuff up? Not really imaginative." Sora and Krieger get out of the dorm building when another boom shakes the ground. "Ok maybe it isn't imaginative but it is probably effective!" They see the wall of the library blow out as another explosion shakes the ground.
"He's using bombs! He's trying to kill people! We have to evacuate the school before we go to the Factory!"
"I think everyone is smart enough to get out of here!" Another explosion hits the school as the garden shed explodes.
"Shrapnel!" Chunks of metal spray the area around the garden shed. "Aaaa!" Krieger is hit by the shrapnel.
"Krieger, are you ok!?" Sora knows it sounds stupid but it was the first words out of her mouth. "That looks bad, the nurse should um, put stuff on that so it doesn't get infected." Seeing Krieger hurt has made Sora forget everything.
"No, Scanners will heal me." Krieger can feel the blood move down his face and chest from where the shrapnel was. "I don't think anything important was hit. It's just a scratch." Krieger runs and is followed by Sora as more explosions rock the school.
"So you just moved here?" Dante is talking with UV as they leave the food court. "What school do you go to?"
"I go to Central Secondary. Why don't you go to school again?" UV kept trying to find out where Dante lived and his back story.
"I don't need it. I'm smarter then my friends and their teachers as it is." Dante wants to think of a way to stop talking about his past when his phone rings. He gets it out. "Hello?"
"Xana's attacking!" Sanne got a call from Sora telling her what the attack was. "Xana's blowing stuff up!"
"What?"
"Boom boom boom! Blowing stuff up!" Sanne yells this. "I mean, sorry, Xana is using bombs to blow up the school! Hurry!"
"I'll be right there." Dante and Sanne hang up. "Um, UV, I have to go. Um, I think I'm supposed to ask for your number."
"You think? That's a weird way to put it."
"I haven't been on, um, I haven't really been around people except my friends. Um, I can put your number in my phone and uh, call you so you have mine." UV gives Dante her number and he calls her so her caller ID gets his number. "I really have to go now UV."
"Ok Just Dante." UV laughs. "What's the big deal?"
"Um, hard to explain, I have to go." Dante runs away leaving a confused and intrigued UV.
"What? I finally get my homework done early enough to go on a date and Xana attacks." Skitz didn't like the call from Sanne. "We'll be there, don't forget to call Ark and Mira."
"I won't." Sanne and Skitz hang up. "It's a good thing they came back to the group." Sanne calls Ark and tells him about the attack. After they hang up Sanne leans back in the computer chair to think about what has happened recently. She had gotten Dante back, Ark and Mira didn't quit, and the fighting in the group had gone down. Things were going well after everything went to hell. If only she could free Franz and get his help to defeat Xana once and for all.
"This is bad." Dante makes it to the Factory and sees bombs on the bridge. "If one of us tries to cross they'll probably explode." Dante calls Sanne. "Sanne, problem. Xana rigged the bridge with bombs."
"What? Crap."
"Yeah. If one of us tries to cross they'll blow up. Sanne you can't go alone but I don't know how to get across."
"I don't know either. Maybe you could swim across the river then try and climb up the other side."
"Sanne you know it's too steep to get up it."
"Well, could steal a car and…" Dante cuts Sanne off.
"Steal a car!?"
"We're doing a return so it doesn't matter what you do. But if you wait for the others, then steal a car, you can drive it as fast as possible and hope it makes it through. And that the fall at the end doesn't hurt you."
"I'm not worried about the fall it's the sudden stop at the end that worries me." Dante looks at the bridge. "Well, if you're doing a return then, well, we're still stealing Sanne." Dante had done a lot of bad when Xana programmed him to kill. He didn't want to do any more bad things.
"Yes, you don't have to if you don't want to. I'm sorry I asked you to do that Dante." Sanne can hear by his voice that it troubled Dante. "Um, find another way. Maybe you could borrow a car, like, ask or something."
"I don't know Sanne. We can't let you go alone. If you're going to do a return then I think we could borrow a car. We would be returning it. We just wouldn't be asking to borrow it." Dante laughs nervously as he tries to justify stealing a car to get across the bridge.
Soon Ark and Mira get to the end of sewer passage and find Dante standing there. "What's up Dante?"
"Xana planted bombs on the bridge. Sanne wants us to borrow a car and drive it across the bridge."
"Borrow?"
"Well, technically we'd be borrowing it. We just wouldn't be asking to borrow it."
"I see. So we're stealing a car to what, drive really fast?" Dante nods. "And that's to hope they don't go off right before we get to the bridge?" Dante nods again. "So pretty much strap those belts down one more time lets go racing?" Dante nods again. "Sounds like fun."
"Sounds like suicide." Sora and Krieger climb out of the sewers and the others see Krieger's wounds.
"Ouch, Krieger what happened?" Mira looks away unable to look at the open wounds and dried blood.
"Just a flesh wound." Krieger looks around for a car. "Um, I don't think I should be going around the streets like this."
"I'll go find one." Sora runs down the street looking for a car with the keys in it. When she finds one parked next to the sidewalk she looks around to make sure no one is looking then gets in the car. "Ok, just like Uncle taught me." Sora starts the car then moves the lever to shift into reverse. "Whoa!" She hits another car. "Oops. Ok, that's reverse so this must be drive." She slams into the car in front of her. "Yep, that was drive." Sora gets it into reverse and turns the wheel. She goes up onto the curb and hits a light pole. "Ok, just a few more minutes and I'll be out of here." Her crashing has drawn attention from the people in stores.
"Hey! That's my car!" A man runs over to his car but Sora takes off for the Factory.
"Woohoo! I knew I knew how to drive a car." She hears a weird noise. "Oh crap, shift gears um, crap." She pulls the lever and the car starts to coast. "No that's neutral." She moves the lever the other way and the noise stops. "Ok there we go." She drives to the Factory with the beat up car.
"What did she do?" Skitz and Barack had gotten to the Factory and were waiting with the others when they see the damage on the car.
"Sora what did you do?" Krieger goes over to the car. "What did you hit?" Sora laughs.
"Two cars and a light pole, and the curb. Just get in I'll get us across the bridge in the Sora Express." The kids get in. Mira sits on Ark's lap and Skitz sits on Barack's lap so they could all fit in the car. "Ok, reverse." The car goes forward. "No, reverse." The car backs up. "On three we're going for it."
"Well, seatbelts people the fall up ahead is going to suck." Krieger gets a seatbelt on.
"Not the fall Krieger but the stop at the end." Dante struggles with the seatbelt as he is squeezed between Ark, Mira, Skitz, and Barack in the back seat.
"Well, one, two, and three!" Sora hits the gas and slams backwards into another light pole. "Oops, um, let me get it out of reverse." Sora shifts gears and moves forward. "Hang on!"
"What about three!" Krieger and the others panic as Sora speeds up for the bridge.
"Must go faster, must go faster, go, go, go!" Dante closes his eyes as they get to the bridge.
"Aaaa!" Explosions rock the bridge as Sora drives down it. "Hold on people!" Sora sees the entrance to the Factory just seconds before she drives over the edge and they crash into the Factory floor.
"Oh god, no, we should have thought of a better plan." Sanne sees through the cameras the horrible crash. Sanne goes to the elevator and takes it up to the Factory floor. "Krieger, Dante, Skitz!" Sanne yells names but gets no responses. "No, don't, don't be dead." Sanne runs over to the car and tries to help her friends. She sees an arm coming out of a side window. "Sora?" Sanne grabs the arm and pulls on it. "Sora are you, ok?" Sanne knows it sounds stupid since Sora couldn't have been ok. "Sora please, say something."
"Stop pulling my arm." Sora's answer is week. "The airbag deployed. Hit me like a frakking brick wall."
"Hello?" Another voice comes out. "Can anyone hear me?"
"Dante? Where are you?" Sanne can't see him in the tangled mess of steel and glass and other car parts.
"I somehow went behind the back seat." Dante moves. "Ow." He cuts himself on broken glass. "Sanne, I'm in the back, there's a hole, but I need help." Sanne goes around to the back and sees Dante's arms. She grabs them and pulls and soon a bloody and bruised Dante is out.
"Um, do you want to be scanned now?"
"No I'll help." Dante realizes how lucky he is when he sees the smashed car. "Sanne help me get this door off." Dante grabs the side door and pulls on it. Sanne grabs him around the waist and pulls. "Open!" Dante yells as his muscles strain. "Aaaa!" Dante and Sanne fall backwards as they finally get the door to open. The door falls off of its hinges and clatters on the Factory floor.
"Ouch." Sanne rubs her back. "Ouch, that looks painful." She sees Ark and Mira crammed between the front seat and their seat. The back seat had broken off of its holding nearly crushing the teens.
"Can someone get me out? This isn't a comfortable position no matter what a yoga teacher tells you." Sora was in shock and didn't feel the pain.
"We will but um, the others um, I think they're breathing." Sanne is scared out of her mind. Her friends did this so she wouldn't have to go to Lyoko alone. "Dante we can't move them. But we can't leave them here."
"Try to carefully take them out. If you can't then leave them." Dante's voice is cold. "Xana could be planning to blow the Factory up. We have to hurry and deactivate the Tower."
"I know but," Dante cuts Sanne off.
"But I know that to save them we must deactivate the Tower!" What Dante says confuses Sanne.
"What? Dante we need them. What are you talking about?"
"I, um, look lets get Sora out." Dante didn't mean to yell that but he was getting mad at himself as all he saw when he looked over at Sanne was what was underneath her clothes. He wants to stop this but can't. Being a teenage boy, at least having the mind of a teenage boy, was too much. "Sanne I can't do this alone." Dante pulls on the door with all his strength but the door merely bends. Sanne wraps her arms around Dante's waist and she pulls. With their combined weight the door breaks off like the other door had. "Sora can you climb out?"
"I think so." Sora moves a little. "The steering wheel is squeezing me between the seat and it. Um, pull on my arm I can't really move my legs for leverage." Sora hopes they were just broken and the shock of the accident kept her from feeling the pain. Sanne and Dante grab her arm and soon they pull her out.
"Oh, god, sorry." Sanne goes away and throws up. Sora's legs had been smashed into pieces and her bones were sticking out through her skin. Sora couldn't feel it though because her back was broken.
"It's not that bad, is it? The Scanners can heal me right?" Sora laughs nervously. "Right Dante?"
"Yes Sora they'll heal anything but death." Dante looks into the car and sees Krieger sitting limp in the front seat. "Anything but death." Dante goes around to the other side of the car and finds the door hanging open. "Krieger, damn, we can get you out." Dante leans over and undoes Krieger's seatbelt then pulls Krieger out. After setting Krieger on the Factory floor he looks into the back seat. There wasn't anyway to pull the others out. "Sanne, drag Sora I'll carry Krieger." Dante picks Krieger up with ease and walks over to the elevator and Sanne drags Sora over to it.
"The Scanners better heal me. I can't be paralyzed. I have to be healed." Sora was starting to panic. "I hate you! If it wasn't for you I wouldn't be in this mess!" Sora yells at an unconscious Krieger. Maybe I should just let him go. I should quit this is too dangerous I could have been killed! But then Krieger would think I was weak, not like Sanne. "I didn't mean that I'm sorry." Sora starts to cry. Her fear, her anger, it was all coming out. "The Scanners better heal me!" The elevator doors close and they all go down to the Scanner Room.
"It's going to be ok Sora the Scanners will heal you." Dante takes Krieger over to a Scanner and sets him in it. Dante helps Sanne with Sora then they go over to the elevator. "Where's the Tower?"
"Ice Sector." The elevator stops and the doors open. They go over to the computer chair and Dante sits down.
"Yes, ok." Sanne looks at him. Dante was talking to himself. A flash of memory from Xana enters his head. "Sora, Krieger's mom had her back broken before. She was healed." Dante hopes those words will make Sora calm down as he starts to transfer the two. "Transfer Sora, Transfer Krieger, Scanner Sora, Scanner Krieger, and virtualization." The two land on Lyoko. "So are you guys ok?" Dante waits for a response.
"Uh, yes." Sora stands up. "I can walk. I can feel, kind of." Sora knew she couldn't really feel on Lyoko unless being hit by a laser but she "felt" cold. "Will this be permanent when I go back to Earth?"
"Yes Sora. Sanne and I are coming now." Dante sends the vehicles then starts the auto transfer. Dante and Sanne take the elevator down to the Scanner Room and get in the Scanners just before the doors close.
"Good to be back." Dante is in his wizard outfit. "There she is." Dante gets his wand out.
"Stop playing with yourself." Sora laughs a little. After being so scared and angry Sora was feeling foolish. "Where to Billion Dollar Princess?" Sora smiles showing she wasn't trying to insult Sanne.
"East." Sanne looks at Krieger glad he was ok but worries about the others. "We have to hurry I don't know how long the others will last or if Xana will try to blow up the Factory." Sanne gets on the Overboard as Dante gets on the Overwing, Krieger on the Overbike, and Sora gets the rocket boots on.
"I can't get a hold of her!" Jim and Samantha were on the phone. "I checked the dorm rooms and the gym and even sent a female student into the bathrooms. I can't find Sanne or the others!" Jim was still on school grounds looking for his granddaughter. The explosions had stopped but the school was being evacuated so a bomb squad unit could look for more bombs.
"Our grand baby, she can't be, she can't be." Samantha was trying not to cry. "Find her and the others!"
"I'm trying honey but, I can't find her." Jim was trying not to cry also. "Call Aelita and Jeremie, just in case." Jim hangs up as he continues to look for Sanne and the other kids.
"Frak." Skitz wakes up. "Ouch. Everything hurts." Skitz tries to move and finds she still has the seatbelt on. She takes it off then tries to move but can't get out. The passenger seat and the back seat was pinning her and Barack. There was no way to get out of the car. "Sanne? Sora? Krieger?" Skitz calls out their names but gets no response. "No, someone say something, no." Skitz is afraid of what happened to the others.
Back on Lyoko the four warriors see the activated Tower and its guards. "What is that?" Sora being new figured it is a monster the others have dealt with but hadn't told her about.
"I'm not sure." Two monsters looking like giant snapping turtles are in front of the activated Tower. "We better be careful if Xana is creating new monsters he must have a reason for it." Sanne is worried. She was feeling weaker then normal and didn't need a monster that she didn't know. "I don't see the Eye."
"I do." Dante was flying higher then Sanne and sees where the Eye is. "On top of its head."
"Ok so what do you think it will do?"
"Let's find out." Sora was ready to fight. "Sanne or Dante one of you should stay back."
"Dante stay back I'll fight." Sanne starts to charge energy then fires at a turtle when she gets closer. A turtle turns towards her and opens its mouth. A massive beam of energy comes out and clashes with hers. Sanne concentrates sending more energy into her attack. The energies move back and forth as each one uses more and more energy. As Sanne tries to destroy one turtle the second one's shell starts to glow.
"This can't be good." Sora creates an arrow and fires at the second turtle. When her arrow gets close the arrow changes direction and misses the turtle. The shell glows even brighter and the area around the second turtle shimmers strangely.
"Sora be careful." Krieger gets his sword and shield out. "I think the glowing shell makes it impossible to hit it. Look at the way the Ice Sector is being affected." The Ice Sector moves strangely around the second turtle. "Sora, help Sanne with the other turtle!" Krieger notices that the turtle's energy beam was getting bigger and closer to Sanne.
"Got it." Sora controls the rocket boots to fly at the other turtle. She fires an arrow but it hits the shell and bounces off. Sora fires more trying to hit the Eye on the top of the turtles head but keeps missing.
On Earth Skitz is crying. She can't see or hear anyone else. She can feel Barack under her but can't feel if he is breathing or not. "What was that?" Skitz hears a noise then feels a rumble. Suddenly one of the rafter beams falls near the car. "I got to get out, let me out!" There is another explosion and another rafter falls down. "Somebody help me!" Skitz screams but no one can hear her.
Back on Lyoko Krieger is dodging laser beams as he tries to get closer to the second turtle. It is hard since when he got close the weird effect from the glowing shell made it like walking through syrup and the energy beam moved in weird ways. "Crap, Dante I need help!" An energy beam hits Krieger's shield but instead of stopping bounces off and warps around for Krieger again.
"Alakazam!" Dante fires an energy beam out of his wand but it to warps when it gets close to the Turtle and heads for Krieger. "Duck!" Krieger drops to the ground and Dante's energy beam flies overhead and hits the other energy beam destroying both.
"I can't fraking hit it!" Sora had fired dozens of arrows that either bounce off the shell or misses and hits the ground. The Turtle's energy beam was getting closer and closer to Sanne.
"We have to do something!" Krieger gets out of the second Turtle's warp attack. "Sanne!" Krieger notices what was happening to her. "Leave her alone!" Krieger throws his shield at the Turtle but it bounces off the shell. "Sanne get away from there!" Krieger runs towards her to knock her out of the path of the energy beam when an aura of energy surrounds Sanne.
This isn't working. Sanne was concerned. She knew she had special powers but didn't know how to bring them out. She tried to concentrate but her wings wouldn't appear, her powers wouldn't rise. I need to stop this now! Sanne's eyes start to glow as her power is starting to come out. Her wings burst from her back but are different from before. Feathers are missing, her wings aren't glowing with energy and look sick but her power rises and she fires her energy beam at the turtle. The energies mix and push back at the turtle until it gets to the Turtle and explodes.
"Sanne, are you ok?" Krieger runs over to Sanne who falls to her knees after the attack.
"I, I don't know." Sanne feels even weaker after the attack. Her wings are frail and feathers start to fall off.
"We still have one more!" Dante was firing energy orbs at the second Turtle but they would warp and break apart when they got close to the second Turtle.
"Sora, Dante, keep it distracted I'll get Sanne to the Tower!" Krieger runs over to the Overbike and gets on it. He drives over to Sanne and picks her up. "Come on Sanne use a bubble."
"I don't know if I can." Sanne was light headed and felt sick. "Bubble." The energy bubble comes up but it is weak. "Hurry Krieger." Sanne rests her head on his shoulder. If she was on Earth she'd probably throw up and have a fever.
"Hurry Sanne." Skitz hears another explosion and part of the Factory roof collapses. "Sanne don't get caught." Skitz thinks Sanne is the only one on Lyoko since she was the only one not involved in the car accident. Another explosion and more of the roof collapses near the car.
"Xana!" Krieger stops the Overbike meters from the Tower when Xana, Ms. Delmas, appears.
"Look at her so weak." Ms. Delmas laughs. "You lost some of your energy little girl. When you kissed Dante I took your energy!"
"Kissed Dante?" Krieger didn't know how Sanne saved Dante.
"She didn't tell you? Sanne Belpois kissed my son. When she did this I took energy from her. Not all of her energy but enough to make new monsters and make her weaker." Ms. Delmas forms an energy orb in her hand. "The others are dead. I blew up the Factory and crushed them."
"No, they can't be." Sanne looks up at Ms. Delmas. "If they're dead we'll call our parents and they'll come. They, they will kill you."
"With the energy I got from you I don't really care anymore. Let them come so I don't have to hunt them down!" Ms. Delmas forms another energy orb in her hand. "What are you going to do about it?"
"Do you expect us to run?"
"No I expect you to die!" Ms. Delmas throws the energy orb in her right hand at the two on the Overbike and destroys the bubble. Ms. Delmas throws the other orb which Krieger blocks with his sword.
"Sanne get to the Tower! Super Leap!" Krieger jumps off the Overbike and attacks Ms. Delmas. He swings his sword at her head but she easily smacks him away with her left hand.
"You'll never make it." Ms. Delmas points her hand at Sanne who was almost at the Tower. Energy forms and fires at Sanne but Sora throws herself in front of it and is sent back to Earth.
"Ow." Sora feels the burn on her back. "Well, at least I can feel the pain." Sora sits down on the floor. She hears rumbles and looks up. "Uh oh." Suddenly there is a loud noise and the room shakes as the elevator crashes down to the Super Computer. "Oh hell, this can't be good." Sora goes over to the ladder and climbs up to the Control Room. "Sanne, how do I work the cameras?"
"Kind of busy right now!"
"The elevator was destroyed I want to check on the others."
"I can't take time right now!" Sanne was dodging energy orbs. "They're fine!" Sanne wasn't going to believe that Xana had killed her friends.
"They're dead!" Ms. Delmas sparks with energy and throws a massive energy orb at Sanne.
"Good, keep distracting her." Dante was getting closer and closer to the activated Tower while dodging energy beams from the Turtle.
"I'll kill you next! Then the others, even my own son! I'll attack the Super Computer and make myself a God once I break into it and use returns to make myself the God I once was!"
"Now." Dante takes off for the activated Tower on the Overwing.
"Super Leap!" Krieger had been dazed by the blow from Ms. Delmas but recovers finally. He sees Dante diving for the activated Tower. Krieger knew Dante wouldn't make it without help. "Die damn it!" Krieger lands on the shell of the Turtle. The shell starts to glow but is too slow and Krieger shoves his sword into the Eye. The explosion surprises Krieger and it sends him back to Earth.
"Got it!" Dante leaps off of the Overwing and lands inside of the Tower. "Have to hurry." Dante floats up to the second platform.
"No." Skitz is crying. The Factory was barely holding up above the car. Another explosion shakes the Factory and a large beam falls towards the car.
"The Tower is deactivated." The screens fall around Dante. "Return to the past now!" The white bubble comes out and reverses time.
"Skitz!" Sanne throws her door open and sees Skitz on her bed. "You're ok." Skitz wasn't.
"Where were you? Did you go alone? Why didn't you save me?" Skitz had been crying since the return. "I was in the car and no one was there and I didn't know if they were alive or dead or if you had been captured!"
"Skitz calm down." Sanne sits down on the bed next to Skitz. "We're all ok. We weren't hurt because the return fixed everyone." Sanne hugs Skitz. "We tried to get you out but you were pinned in there. I was able to get Dante, Krieger, and Sora." Sanne kisses Skitz on the cheek. "There all better." Skitz laughs a little.
"You're not my mom. It only works if your mom does it." Skitz hugs Sanne back. "I'm glad you're ok."
"I'm glad you're ok Skitz. It was a little rough. Xana made new monsters that were really tough." Sanne and Skitz talk for awhile before splitting up and going to different places.
Dante is back at the mall and hurries to the food court. He sees UV but realizes he can't call her UV. "It worked last time. Hey Sanne!" Dante jogs over to UV. "Sanne what are you doing here?" Dante puts a hand on UV's shoulder.
"Why are you touching me?" UV turns around.
"Oh, you're not my friend Sanne, um, sorry."
"How could you think I was your friend?"
"She's the only person I know with pink hair."
"She has pink hair? Natural or dyed?"
"Natural. I hear her mother and grandmother have pink hair."
"You never met them?" Dante shakes his head. "Wow, I never heard of anyone else with pink hair."
"Um, I was going to get something to eat, uh, want to eat together?"
"Sure, I'm Naia."
"I'm ju," Dante stops. He didn't want to go through the Just Dante again. "I'm Dante." Dante sticks his hand out. Naia shakes it. "Um, what do you want to eat?" Dante was still full from before but UV, Naia, didn't know that.
"Well, I was going to get a slice of pizza but we could split a whole pie."
"Sure." They go to a booth and order a pizza. They talk, and talk, and the pizza gets cold as the two talk and get to know each other. Dante has to come up with lies and answers and thankfully he had practice so comes up with a better story.
A/N Song turned Episode, a techno song so might not know it. Also, who is this strange pink haired girl? Read to find out! And to the attack, it was dangerous, the gang couldn't let Sanne go alone and nearly died to get in the Factory. And with the new monsters, cool right? They can fire energy beams and use a second attack that warps the area around them to make it nearly impossible to kill them!
