Sanne and the others are having a meeting in the Control Room. "Guys I don't want to say this but its looking truer every day. We've scanned nearly half of the Super Computer and can't find Naia." Sanne sighs. "We'll keep looking but it looks like, like," Sanne can't continue.
"It looks like Naia might be dead." Dante grips the arm of the computer chair hard. "If that is true then we will vote on what to do."
"Vote? If Naia is dead then we tell our parents." Krieger was trying to be firm on this but didn't know if he really believed that. He didn't want to drag his parents into this fight since it was his fault this was happening. He could have turned the Super Computer off. He could have made Sanne leave it off. But he didn't. He wanted to finish this fight on his own.
"Maybe. Krieger we, I don't want to do that to our parents." Sanne wasn't going to say we. She didn't know how the others felt. "I need to fight and stop Xana. I don't know if you will go running to your mom and dad but I want to stay and fight! What do you think they will do to us? Remember what happened when Skitz, Ark, and Mira died? What happened then? I don't want to be separated from you or Dante or anyone else like that. I knew that I'd probably never see you until we were eighteen and kicked out of home. If Ark and Skitz hadn't launched the return we'd be at home sitting in our rooms cut off from the world."
"Sanne if Xana kills someone then we need to call our parents! If we fail to stop Xana from doing that then we need to call our parents and have them kick Xana's ass because we obviously can't!"
"Frak you! You're just waiting for an excuse to go running home with your tail tucked between your legs! You've never wanted to fight! If it were up to you Dante would still be sitting in the Tower on Lyoko!"
"And we would be normal kids, Sora would be free, and Naia would still be at Central Academy!" Krieger gets in Sanne's face. "Or have you forgotten about our friends not standing in this room?!"
"I didn't forget about them!" Sanne gets on her tip toes to get nose to nose with Krieger. "I am looking for Naia and I am trying to find a way to free Sora! What are you doing besides bitching at me or working out!?"
"I'm trying to make it so I can frakking fight whatever Xana sends at us! I want to be able to protect you and the others so you and the others don't end up like Naia or Sora!"
"Protect me huh?! How are you going to stop a monster on Earth or a zombie or anything else Xana throws at us!? You just work out to avoid helping Dante and I! All your muscles don't mean frak to Xana!" Sanne grabs Krieger by the arm. "These won't stop a bullet or laser!"
"And that!" Krieger puts a hand on Sanne's forehead then pushes her away. "Won't pull someone free from a trap or allow you to slow Sora down when Xana finally orders her to kill us all!" Krieger grabs Sanne by the wrist and pulls her hand off of his arm.
"Calm down you two." Dante tries to stand between Sanne and Krieger but Krieger pushes him away.
"Come on Krieger I know you want to! Hit me! We've sparred before I can take a frakking hit!"
"I'd never hit you!" Krieger grabs Sanne by the upper arms and pulls her towards him. "You know I'd never hit you." Krieger kisses Sanne.
"Get a room you two." Ark makes a joke glad the yelling had stopped. The whole group had been getting strained but if Sanne and Krieger were fighting then things were getting really bad.
"Sorry." Sanne pulls away from Krieger. "I didn't mean to say that Krieger. I know you don't want to run away."
"I did mean what I said that if Naia is dead we have to call our parents. That is something we've said since the very beginning."
"Yes but things have changed Krieger." Sanne almost yells this but is able to stay calm. "Do you want to be sent home and kept there away from me?"
"No but," Sanne puts a hand on hand on his mouth.
"Then we can't tell our parents. We'd be ruining their lives and ours. I don't want to think what they would do to Dante." Sanne looks into Dante's eyes. "They'd see him as Xana's son."
"I know but if Naia is dead then we should call our parents." This time Skitz speaks up.
"No Skitz. I, they'd send you home. You'd never see Barack again. You might not care but I'm sure Barack would."
"I would care but maybe we could talk to our parents."
The group continues to talk for awhile but it starts to get late. "We should be going to bed." Ark yawns.
"Yeah, you guys go. I'll wrap some things up then send Dante back to Lyoko." Sanne stretches and yawns.
"Ok, see you soon Sanne." Skitz and the others get on the elevator and take it up to the Factory floor.
Sanne sits down in the computer chair and suddenly feels freezing cold. She starts to feel ill then hears a loud banging noise that makes her jump. "Dante what was that?"
"I don't know." Dante looks around and sees a bloody fist print on the wall. "Sanne come here." Sanne gets out of the computer chair and follows Dante over to the wall.
"What is that?"
"I don't know."
"What do you know?" Sanne laughs a little at the joke trying to ease tensions. She didn't know how Dante would feel about her kissing Krieger right in front of him. "I wonder why Xana did it."
"Are you sure it's Xana?" Dante puts a finger on the bloody fist print and can almost smell Naia's perfume. He can almost feel her warm hand. He swears he can even hear her but it is only Xana.
"Don't you touch her!" Naia is screaming her head off. "I can't believe you'd let her confuse you like that! You love me you've even told her that but you still touch her and kiss her!"
Do ou tou r! I bel 'd et con lik at! You lo you ven er at yo ill ouch iss her! Dante shakes his head. "Sanne can you send me to Lyoko?"
"Of course I can but first I need to do this." Sanne hugs Dante and kisses him hard on the mouth. They kiss for a few minutes then break apart. "It's going to be ok Dante we'll find her. She isn't dead and I'm not leaving."
"What if Krieger or one of the others call your parents?"
"I don't know. I'd hate to wipe their memories but if I have to I will. I can't let my parents come. Our parents come, and take us away. I won't leave you here alone. They, they won't treat you like a human."
"I'm not, completely." Sanne gets a little frustrated.
"I've told you before you are human. I couldn't love a virus and a virus wouldn't love me." Sanne kisses Dante again. "Ok, go back to Lyoko." Sanne shivers. "It's so cold down here all of a sudden."
"I know. If I go to Lyoko and feel pulsations I'll tell you." Dante takes the ladder down to the Scanner Room. Naia follows him still yelling at him. When he steps in the Scanner Naia doesn't want to stop yelling so gets in with him. When the Scanner doors close…
"Oh my Gods." Naia's profile comes up on the screen. "No way. This is impossible." Sanne checks the profile. "Dante, you'll never believe what I see." Sanne didn't put the headset on.
"Nothing. Go back to Kadic Academy. I'll go through the DDNA Scan. See if we missed…" Dante hears the voice a lot more clearly now.
"Dante, please, look at me!"
Dante, please, look at me! Dante looks around but doesn't see anyone. "The voice is following me."
"No its not I'm following you! It's me, Naia!"
No its not I'm following you! It's me, Naia! Dante nearly collapses.
"Crap, where is it." Sanne finds the headset and puts it on. "Dante, Naia's profile appeared!"
"I, I hear her." Dante looks around some more but doesn't see Naia. "She's right here but I can't see her."
"Oh my Gods Dante something must have happened." Sanne has no idea what this would be but Naia's profile appears and now Dante hears her voice. "What is she saying?"
"She's here, next to me."
"Yes!" Naia wants to cry in joy but can't since she is on Lyoko. "I love you Dante I knew you could hear me!" Naia tries to hug him but passes through him. "Dante I'm so scared!"
"She's scared, can you hear her?"
"No. I, let me go to Lyoko." Sanne sets up the auto transfer and takes the ladder down to the Scanner Room. She gets in the left Scanner and soon the doors close.
Sanne lands on Lyoko next to Dante. "Ok, I can't hear her."
"You can't?" Dante looks at Sanne. "Maybe it has something to do with my closeness to Naia."
"Yes! That little slut better leave you alone! You're mine!"
"Don't call her that!" Dante yells but Sanne can't hear what Naia is saying so is confused.
"Dante are you sure you can hear her?"
"Yes."
"Of course he can hear me Sanne. Just because you tried to confuse him doesn't mean he'd forget about me."
"I'm not confused. I, I love her." Sanne stares at Dante. "Naia I'm sorry but I love Sanne. I still love you and will find you but I love Sanne."
"Dante I, I'll go back." Sanne runs into the Way Tower and uses the control panel to send herself back to Earth. She didn't want to intrude on Dante and Naia. Well, on Dante since she couldn't hear Naia.
Sanne is going back to Kadic Academy slowly. She wasn't sure what was going on any more. She loved two men and one of them loved another woman. She knew it was wrong to cheat on Krieger but she loved Dante. She couldn't see being separated from him. If the adults were called and Sanne was sent away she'd, she didn't know what she would do. Being separated from Krieger and Dante until she at least turned eighteen was something she couldn't handle. She couldn't stand to lose either of them but both of them? And knowing that the adults would treat Dante like an animal, worse then an animal, hurt her. "What am I going to do? We have Naia back, maybe. It might be a trick and if it is I don't know what Dante will do. I need someone to talk to but I can't. Well, maybe I can." Sanne passes the sewer passage that leads to the Hermitage. "Tomorrow, I can't go now I'll be in trouble for being off of the campus after hours." Sanne continues to Kadic Academy.
At Kadic Academy Sanne goes to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face when she sees a hickie on her neck. "Crap, Krieger didn't leave that there." Sanne knows it looks bad. Krieger would know he didn't leave it. Sanne made sure he didn't leave marks on her or else Jim would know what she was doing and she would get in trouble. "Frak. Maybe I can borrow some makeup from Skitz. Gods know how many times she's had to cover up the hickies Barack left on her." Sanne goes to her room and sees Skitz is under the covers doing something. "Skitz could you stop that for a minute and tell me where you keep your cover up?"
"Huh, what?" Skitz turns over. "Why do you want some?"
"Because Da," Sanne stops. "Because dummy left a hickie on my neck. Just tell me where it is and you can go back to your, activities." Sanne is so tired she doesn't notice the smell in the room.
"In my second drawer and its weird doing it with you here."
"Then don't I don't care. I'm tired."
"You didn't do anything today."
"You have no idea." Sanne shakes her head. Emotionally she was worn out and that was worse then being physically tired. Sanne puts the cover up on then changes for bed. "Goodnight Skitz." Sanne snuggles under the covers with a body pillow.
"Goodnight Sanne." Skitz decides to go back to her activities glad Sanne hadn't caught her doing something else. "That was close."
Sanne is sleeping when she starts to feel cold. She shivers a little in her sleep then wakes up when she feels ice on her cheek. She turns over and sees a girl in an all white outfit. She doesn't recognize the outfit but she recognizes the hair and face. "Naia? Then Dante did it already? He found you and brought you back?"
"Yes." Naia smiles at Sanne. "But there was a problem. You see, something is wrong with me. I am still in my Lyoko attire and everything is cold." Now that she mentions it Sanne notices she can see her breath.
"Well we can fix that."
"You see that's what Dante said. But you see I know what you two have been doing. Because of that I was mad."
"But, I, how?"
"I watched you. Whenever it got cold, you heard a noise, it was me. I hated both of you but I realized what happened. You confused him. No man would refuse you would they? A billionaire with your looks? No acne, no fat, you're perfect. Sure you could probably use a bigger chest but Dante likes them small. It wasn't his fault it was yours!" Naia starts to choke Sanne. "You confused him! You came on to him! He almost forgot about me because of you!" Sanne struggles to break Naia's hold.
"Let me, go. Sorry." Sanne tries to kick Naia but can't reach her.
"You slut!" Naia shakes Sanne by the throat never hearing Skitz wake up. "It's all your fault!"
"Let her go!" Skitz wraps a bed sheet around Naia's neck and pulls her off of Sanne. "What are you!?" Skitz feels how cold Naia is and shivers. "Naia?"
"Let me go! You don't know what Sanne did!" Naia leans forward fast throwing Skitz over her shoulder.
"Stop it Naia!" Sanne gets out of bed and tackles Naia sending both of them through the desk smashing it. Skitz gets up and goes to help Sanne with Naia.
"What the hell? Is this a Xana attack or what?"
"I, crap where's my Jtop?"
"Under me poking me in the ass!" Naia punches Skitz in the face. "Let me go! I'm just going to make Sanne pay for what she did!"
"Shut up Xana!" Skitz checks to make sure her nose isn't bleeding. "Sanne we have to get to the Factory."
"You need to get a shirt on and we need to find a Jcell." Both of the Jcells were on the desk when it was smashed.
"Frak!" Skitz had reached for a Jcell when Naia kicked out and hit Skitz in the arm. "Let me kick her!"
"No!" Sanne wasn't sure if this was Naia or a Xana trick. "Help me keep her down then call the others!"
"We need you Sanne to deactivate the Tower!" Skitz jumps and lands on Naia. "Get out of here I'll deal with Xana!" Skitz ignores how freezing cold Naia is as she wrestles with her.
"Don't hurt her or get hurt Skitz!" Sanne grabs a Jcell off of the floor and calls Krieger. "Krieger! I, a Xana attack, I think."
"You think?"
"I, yes, get to the Factory! Skitz is dealing with the attack." Sanne runs to Mira's room and opens the door. "Get Barack on your way to the stairs." Sanne sneaks in as she hangs up on Krieger. Sanne goes to Mira's bed and shakes her awake.
"What?" Mira turns over and sees Sanne. "Why?"
"Who, where, when. Xana, my room, now." Mira sits up.
"Ok." Mira yawns. "I guess my sleep shirt is enough."
"Yeah, we have to hurry Skitz is dealing with the attack." Sanne turns around when she hears Mira's roommate turn over. The roommate is still asleep.
"Ok." Mira stands up and yawns again. "Late night attacks suck."
"Yeah." They sneak out of the room then run to the stairwell.
Dante is on Earth hiding. Xana had gone after him. Had gone right into the Way Tower after Dante. Dante got to the control panel and sent himself to Earth before Xana could do whatever it was he wanted to do. Now Dante is in the sewers away from anything electrical. "What was that?" He turns his head when he hears a noise. "He is sending something after me, why?" Dante goes to the ladder and starts to climb up when the noise gets closer.
"Dante!" Sanne yells and waves to him. "What are you doing?!"
"Hiding." Dante waits for Sanne and the others to get to him before explaining what happened.
"He chased you out and away from the Factory so you couldn't warn us of the attack." Sanne is positive it's a Xana attack now. Dante would have told her if he got Naia to Earth. Sanne gets her Jcell out. "Wait," Sanne realizes the Jcell she had was Skitz's. She calls her Jcell and Skitz answers.
"Ow, she got away, you guys ok?"
"Yeah. It is a Xana attack. Try to get here but if you aren't here in five minutes we're going on our own."
"I won't be coming." Skitz spits blood out. "I'm winded. She got me right under the ribs. It will probably be five minutes before I can even walk."
"Ok. No, you can come. We need you." Sanne is worried that Skitz could be hurt and wants to use the Scanners to heal her.
"Fine. Give me a few minutes." Sanne and Skitz hang up.
"The attack is headed this way. I knew it was an attack I just knew it." Sanne puts her Jcell away and waits for either the fake Naia or Skitz to arrive.
"What is the attack?" Dante is worried about his friends. If he hadn't run away from the Factory he could have called Sanne and warned them.
"He sent a fake Ghost Naia to Earth." Dante's pained look hurts Sanne. "It's a fake so everything it says or does is just Xana trying to hurt us. The real Naia wouldn't be doing this."
"I, yes." Dante knew Naia was nearly insane about Sanne. After talking with her Dante realized what Naia had seen. He didn't know what to say. He still loved Naia but he loved Sanne also and tried to tell Naia this but she just yelled at him. "We better hurry." Dante and the others climb out of the sewers and head into the Factory to take the elevator down to the Control Room.
When the elevator doors open the group gets a nasty surprise. "Naia!" Dante throws himself at Naia and tackles her to the floor. She is ice cold and his skin nearly freezes to hers. "No, Xana, we know you're fake!"
"He sent me here!" Naia tries to slam her forehead into Dante's nose but he pulls his head back. "He knew what I would do!"
"Attack Sanne? Yeah right!" Krieger goes over to help Dante with Naia.
"Yes! Because that little slut has been messing with Dante! He's my boyfriend he loves me you little tramp!" Naia spits at Sanne. Sanne wants to do something but is frozen with fear. Krieger would hear, was hearing, about her and Dante. She didn't know what she wanted and didn't want Krieger to know until she told him. Whether it was going to him for forgiveness or telling him she was breaking up with him she didn't care she just needed to be the one to tell Krieger.
"Be quiet Xana like I'd fall for such a lie!" Krieger kneels down next to Dante and Naia and grabs Naia's arms. "So where do we take her? Or just let me hold her down long enough for Sanne to send the others to Lyoko?" Dante shrugs his shoulders and looks over at Sanne.
"I'll send the others, uh, Dante you hold her down." Sanne doesn't want Krieger to hear any more. So far he believed it to be all lies but the fake Naia might say something else that convinces Krieger. Sanne starts to bring the transfer program up when the elevator moves. Soon it comes back down and she sees Skitz. "Dante hurry, Skitz made it."
"No he needs to go. I can hold her down." Krieger moves so he is straddling the fake Naia's chest and pins her to the ground. Dante goes over to the elevator and gets on. The doors close and the elevator goes down to the Scanner Room.
"Transfer Dante, Transfer Ark, Transfer Barack, Scanner Dante, Scanner Ark, Scanner Barack, and virtualization." They land on Lyoko in the Desert Sector. "Transfer Mira, Transfer Skitz, Scanner Mira, Scanner Skitz, and virtualization." They land on Lyoko next to the others.
"Stop her! Krieger, she's been messing with Dante! Check her neck! She has a hickie that he put there!" Krieger looks over at Sanne but doesn't see one. Sanne had put the cover up on.
"You need to do better lies Xana. Sanne, send yourself, I'll deal with this fraud." Krieger struggles a little. He was getting very cold, shivering.
"I am a fake but what I say is the truth! She's touching him. He's been touching her! He's put his hands in places only you have been Krieger! Don't let her make a fool of you!"
"Shut up Xana!" Sanne snaps. "I would never cheat on Krieger I love him!" Sanne sets up the auto transfer.
"Lie! You lie Sanne! You've been cheating on Krieger ever since the real Naia died!"
"See Krieger? Xana. Xana do you think we'd let you get us to fight? We love each other." Sanne has to act tough. She wants to cry knowing that Xana was right. She was a liar, a tramp, a, no. She loved both Dante and Krieger. She may be a liar but she wasn't a tramp or a slut. She loved both men and didn't know what to do about it. "Krieger don't get hurt."
"I can handle this." Krieger keeps Fake Naia pinned to the floor as Sanne takes the ladder down to the Scanner Room. She gets in the middle Scanner seconds before the Scanner doors close.
"Sanne is Krieger coming?" Sanne shakes her head. "Then I'll get on the Overbike with you." Dante goes over to the Overbike and Sanne follows. Sanne doesn't notice the stare from Skitz who had heard the yelling, like the others, over the headset. Except she knew Sanne had a hickie. She knew Sanne had used makeup to cover a hickie up that she now knew didn't come from Krieger. But right now they had to deal with the activated Tower. And she wanted to talk to Sanne alone first. Just in case something was going on, had happened, that she didn't know about.
Krieger is starting to weaken from the cold. "Shut up Xana I'm not going to believe a thing you say!" Krieger stands up and backs away from Fake Naia hoping to warm up.
"But it's all true! Check her neck when she comes back. You'll see. She used makeup to cover the hickie up. Although Dante may have left other hickies in other places." Fake Naia smiles wickedly. "Everything I say is true. I'll make a deal. You know I always keep my deals. I'll walk away and allow you to warm up but you must listen to me."
"I don't think so Xana. You'll lie."
"I promise, part of the deal will be I won't say a single untruth."
"Why would you tell me even if they were doing things, which they aren't." Krieger gets ready to attack again.
"Because you will hate Dante and Sanne and that helps me."
"Exactly why you will lie."
"Don't make the deal then. I'll just attack you and win." Fake Naia lunges at Krieger. Krieger is ready for this and brings his knee up hitting Fake Naia in the stomach.
On Lyoko the group gets close to the activated Tower and sees Sora backed up by two Assassins. "Sora you can back down! We don't want to fight you!"
"I want to back down but I can't. I must live. I do something important in the future and I must live to do that. So for now I will not disobey Xana." Sora creates an arrow. "Ready to lose? By the time you go back to Earth Krieger will be waiting for you Sanne, Dante." Sora is smiling wickedly as she puts the arrow in the Gothic Bow.
"Fake Naia is lying! Dante and I don't do anything!" Sanne sparks with energy. Nervous about the truth being discovered and angry at Sora for using the simple excuse of not wanting to disobey Xana for what she was doing brings out Sanne's powers. "Step down Sora!"
"I can't Sanne. You'll be glad I am there when the time comes." Sora fires an arrow at Sanne but she dodges it. Sanne closes her eyes and concentrates on her inner powers as her friends attack.
"Extend!" Skitz extends her clubs and jumps off of the Overboard leaving Barack to control the Overboard. She lands near an Assassin which lashes out at her with its claws. Skitz does a backflip to dodge it.
"What will you do? What if it is the real Naia on Earth?" Sora fires an arrow at Mira who was on the Overwing.
"I don't know!" Mira dodges another arrow.
"We know it isn't Naia. It said so itself!" Sanne opens her eyes as her energy glows around her. She had to concentrate on her emotions to keep her powers going. Her pink wings burst out from her back. "You can't beat me Sora. Xana wants my powers so I know I can destroy you."
"He wants your powers yes but he got some earlier. Remember? When you kissed Dante the first time and put your powers into him. I guess that time was just practice for now."
"Shut up!" More energy sparks around Sanne. She flaps her wings and she takes off into the air.
"I won't let you in until Xana is done with his attack!" Sora fires arrows at Sanne as the other Lyoko Warriors deal with the Assassins.
On Earth Krieger is pinned to the wall. He could have won in a regular fight but he was getting so cold he couldn't react as fast. "Now Krieger, listen to me." Fake Naia leans so her nose is touching Krieger's nose as she stares into his eyes. "Sanne is cheating on you with Dante. If you don't believe me then spy on them. You will see her kissing him and more."
"I don't need to spy on her. She loves me."
"I didn't say she didn't love you. She does love you. Oh she loves you a lot but she also loves Dante. She shows him how much she loves him every chance she gets. She hasn't done everything with him that she has with you but I am sure it is only time until that happens. She does love him after all maybe even more than you."
"Liar." Krieger wants to push Naia away but is too cold.
"I am not! Don't believe me then and be hurt when you find out the hard way." Naia drops Krieger to the floor. "You fool. Love is blinding you. I would check her neck when she comes back for that hickie that Dante left." Fake Naia backs away from Krieger. "Goodbye." Fake Naia breaks apart into a black mist and disappears.
On Lyoko Sora is firing arrows at the Angelic Sanne. One Assassin had been destroyed and the other one is about to be destroyed. "Skitz distract him!" Ark flies over the Assassin trying to jab his spear into the Eye.
"I'm trying!" Skitz dodges lasers then when she gets closer has to dodge claws. Barack fires lasers but he can't hit the Eye.
"Alakazam!" Dante fires an energy beam at the Assassin and hits a leg. The Assassin is crippled and Ark gets close enough to jab his spear into the Eye. Dante runs for the activated Tower. Sanne sees this and charges at Sora.
"You lose Sora!" Sanne was trying to keep her focus on her emotions but now that the attack was almost over her powers were weakening. Her feathers start to fall off and her dive attack slows.
"I think not." Sora fires an arrow and Sanne tries to dodge it. The arrow hits a wing and cripples it sending Sanne down towards the ground. She lands hard but it was enough for Dante to get into the activated Tower.
"I think so." Ark raises his spear in victory.
"Don't celebrate yet Ark." Sora fires an arrow and hits him in the stomach sending him back to Earth.
"The Tower is deactivated." The screens fall around him. "There should be no need for a return." Dante uses the control panel to send the others back to Earth then himself.
Standing in the Control Room for another meeting Dante and Sanne tell the others what had happened. "And so now we know Naia is alive."
"But how do we know? It could be Xana wanting to make sure we don't call our parents." Krieger is staring at Sanne trying to see any marks on her neck. "It is something he would do."
"It isn't." Dante steps forward. "Naia, the one that just appeared on Lyoko, knows things only she could know."
"Then what?" Skitz stares from Dante to Sanne dieing to ask Sanne some questions once they were alone. "What do we do to get Naia out?"
"We don't know. First we need to make her solid then we can worry about bringing her to Earth." Sanne looks at her Jcell. "Its really late we need to be going to bed."
"Yes you do. I'll go back to Lyoko and work on fixing Naia." Dante takes the ladder down to the Scanner Room and gets in the middle Scanner. Sanne sends him to Lyoko.
After the group goes back to Kadic Academy Sanne is about to fall asleep when Skitz sits up in bed. "Sanne, what are you doing?"
"Trying to sleep."
"No, with Dante."
"I, nothing."
"Don't lie. He left a hickie on your neck. You're cheating on Krieger aren't you? You're seeing Dante behind his back."
"I, I might be." Sanne wanted, needed, someone to talk to about her problem and decides this would be the best chance she got. "I love Dante ok? I still love Krieger also. I love them both but I can't, I don't know."
"Really? Not just a fling with Dante?"
"No! I, I really love Dante and he loves me. But I still love Krieger and he loves me. I feel like there is something with Dante that isn't with Krieger but I love them both so much that I don't know what to do."
"What the frak Sanne? I never thought you would be like this. Mira I'd expect but you?"
"You only expect Mira to do that because you still don't like her."
"Maybe but still. I thought you loved Krieger."
"I do and that's the problem Skitz. I love him but I also love Dante. I'm so confused!"
"Wow, I, I don't know what to say."
"I know you've thought about cheating on Barack. Remember when I could see your sins and thoughts?"
"Yes but I only think about it. And some of it wouldn't be cheating since Barack would be there with me." Skitz smiles thinking about that fantasy. "You're actually cheating on Krieger. What does Dante feel about that?"
"He feels bad but loves me. He says that if I want to stop doing things with him I can and he won't hold it against me. He wants me to be happy. And that just makes me love him more. That he would let me go if it would make me happy."
"Wow Sanne." Skitz shakes her head. "I, I won't tell anyone but you really need to figure this out. I'd hate to see what would happen if Krieger found out the hard way that you're doing things with Dante."
"I know! I want to tell him but I don't know when to do it. I, I know I'll have to choose sooner or later. But when I choose, I don't know. If I choose Krieger and tell him what I did with Dante and he breaks up with me I don't know what I would do. But if I decide I, I want to stay with Dante and break up with Krieger who knows what he would do."
"Afraid he'll join Xana?"
"Yes. Join Xana, help Xana make me his new host, and then have me. I don't think he would but I, if I, if we broke up who knows what he would do."
