The group had fallen apart. No one spoke to Sanne or Dante. Sanne sat alone during meals and during classes. The only time they'd even look at her was when there was a Xana attack. "Why can't I be in the other world?" She is trying not to break down in the middle of class. "Spring break starts tomorrow. I couldn't get out of going home. Thankfully the others were. We need them here to fight Xana." Sanne waits for the bell to ring. She had to pack before leaving tomorrow. She was going to leave her Jpocket with Mira so Mira would have a Super Scan. Sanne was sure that Mira didn't hate her. Not like Ark, Barack, and especially Krieger. Once the bell rings Sanne hurries to her room.
The next day, after giving Mira her Jpocket, Sanne is going to the airport with Samantha and Jim. "It will be nice to go back home."
"I'm sure it will be but make sure you finish your homework." Jim is driving. "It may be a break from the campus but not the work."
"I know Grandpa." Sanne rolls her eyes. She had already heard this speech three times.
"Well I know something you don't know." Jim smiles to himself. He had set it up knowing his granddaughter would like it.
At the airport Jim is helping Sanne by carrying her bags. They go to an area for private planes where Sanne sees Aelita and Jeremie. "Mom, dad!" Sanne runs over to them and hugs them. She was so happy to see familiar faces. "You were able to make it dad?"
"Of course I was. I wanted to show you your surprise."
"My surprise?" Sanne looks around Jeremie and sees the Sterns, minus Krieger. "What are they doing here?"
"That's not very nice." Yumi smiles at Sanne. "We figured since you two kids were, dating, that we should have a holiday together so we can talk to you both and things like that."
"But, but," Sanne can only stammer. "I, where's Krieger?"
"He is in the bathroom. He just seemed so excited." Ulrich smiles at Sanne. "So how was school? Anything interesting happen lately?"
Besides fighting Xana? Playing a giant game of Chess? Wondering if this world is even real? Fighting with my friends? Breaking up with the man I love? "Not really. Just school stuff."
"Krieger said the same thing. I remember when we went to school something exciting was always happening. Of course it was either attack of the killer bees or a heat wave or rampaging Sissi's." Ulrich laughs.
"I'm sure." Sanne rolls hers eyes trying to sound annoyed. "Where are we going?"
"To our place in Russia." Jeremie looks at his watch. "The Jjet is leaving in twenty minutes. Jim, could you put her bags over there with Krieger's? I want to talk with you for a minute." Jeremie and Jim go over to a pile of bags that were Krieger's and talk.
"I wonder what that is about." Sanne looks at Samantha. Samantha said she would only tell Aelita about her and Krieger making love. Maybe Aelita had told Jeremie. Sanne hopes that didn't happen since if it did well Sanne didn't want to find out.
A few minutes later Krieger comes out of the bathroom and sees Sanne. "I can't frakking believe this. Two weeks ago I would have loved this." Krieger clenches his hand into a fist.
"Hi Krieger!" Sanne waves to him and sounds excited. She goes over to him and hugs him so she can whisper into his ear. "We have to act. Around the parents anyways." Krieger pushes her away.
"Aw don't be embarrassed Krieger." Yumi smiles at him and Sanne. "You two are so cute together."
"Yumi you're only going to make him worse!" Sanne forces a laugh out as she holds Krieger's hand. He digs his nails into her palm. "Are we going soon?"
"Yes, come on. Your stuff will be loaded on separately." Jeremie leads the group onto the plane wondering if what Jim said was true. The kids weren't acting like they had broken up but Jim swears they did. If he had called and said something maybe Jeremie could have changed the vacation but it was too late for that.
At the Factory Dante is eating chocolate while working on the Super Virus that Sanne had formulated. He worries Xana will attack Sanne or the air plane so he wasn't going to leave the Factory or Lyoko for awhile. Sanne helped him stock up on sweets for the week. "I need the access code for this section. Sanne would know how to get it." Dante keeps working finding road blocks at every step.
At Kadic Academy Ark and Barack had formed a little I Hate Sanne Club and were having a meeting. "She's gone. She couldn't have taken all of her things. We have to do something!" Ark had taken the lead.
"Yeah but Ark she didn't really do anything wrong to us. Skitz was doing drugs and with Dante and Krieger, that doesn't involve us."
"It was just Jazz, you did it you know it's nothing big. Not like it was Zeus or Exotica. Besides even if she was Sanne didn't have to rat her out to Jim."
"Sanne told us to stop and we, I did. I thought Skitz had to but she didn't. Look Ark, Sanne may not be my favorite person in the world but you're really starting to scare me. Look you're talking to me and you don't even like me."
"I do you're ok, just wish you weren't dating my sister. But Sanne, she, she's a traitor! She betrayed Skitz and Krieger! The two people closest to her. Sora died for her and here she is a lying cheating tramp! First Sanne takes Krieger from her then Sora has to die to save her. Sanne is a selfish little tramp and you know it."
"And what do you want to do? A Panty raid? She didn't leave anything valuable did she?"
"Oh but she did. Mira told me that Sanne left her the Jpocket so she'd have a Super Scan warning."
"And what, steal it? She can buy a new one or have her dad give her a new one." Barack is getting annoyed.
"No, get her in trouble, legal trouble. Say someone uses Sanne Rose Hopper's Jpocket to try and fix the lottery numbers? Or download a bunch of republican, er, pedophile porn? It would lead to her Jcell and she'd get in trouble."
"Ark that's stupid. You can't hack the lottery system and do you really want to check it to see if it is republican porn?"
"Well, no." Ark thinks. "Do to her what she did to Skitz. Get her in trouble for drugs. Just go into the city, buy some, and then come back and plant them."
"And how will they be found?"
"I, I haven't thought of that yet." Ark concentrates. "I'll think of something later. Or you can. She hurt you as much as she hurt me. You were dating my sister after all." Barack nods.
"And I love her but she needed help. I'm kind of glad Sanne said something about it."
"Shut the frak up!" Ark pushes Dante. "She was just fine until Sanne had to go and tell Jim! Does no one see how much of a selfish little lying traitor bitch of a tramp that Sanne is?"
"I, she did lie to Krieger but not to the rest of us. If Krieger and Sanne are fighting we should let them work it out."
"Fine, you can frakking defend her! I'm going to do something!" Ark walks away from Barack burning for revenge.
Sanne and Krieger are sitting next to each other on the Jjet. Sanne didn't attempt to hold hands with him after he nearly drew blood from before. But she had to try and talk to him so the parents wouldn't know anything was amiss. After three hours they land near the cottage in Russia. Jeremie had used his money to have a private airport built near the cottage so he could fly anywhere he wanted at a moments notice.
A few hours later at the Factory Dante is working hard when a beeping noise interrupts him. "Crap, Super Scan. I, the others have to come." Dante gets his Jcell out and calls Barack. "Barack, Xana's attacking!"
"Ok, I'll be there."
"Ok, thank you."
"Xana is bigger then anything else." Barack hangs up on Dante.
"One down, two to go." Dante is about to call Mira when his phone rings. "Hello?"
"Dante, Sanne's Jpocket is beeping at me. That's the Super Scan right? Sanne showed me how to work the stupid thing but I forgot the password."
"Yes Xana's attacking, hurry. And call Ark for me."
"What about Barack?"
"I already called, he's coming."
"Ok, I'll be there. Maybe Ark will come this time."
"He didn't last time, but the time before he did."
"I know. I'll try." They hang up.
At the cottage Krieger and Sanne have unpacked their things in separate rooms. Now they were in the game room while the parents have a little meeting. "What do we do? We can't keep an eye on them all day and night. And this house is so big, what if they sneak off?"
"Jeremie calm down. I doubt they'd be doing that yet." So Yumi hopes. "I mean, they're fourteen. I know today that kids do stuff like that. But them?" Yumi shakes her head.
"Because it's them makes it even more likely." Jeremie looks down the hall. "They've known each other for so long you've eliminated months of dating. We just need to make up activities where we will be involved and tire them out. Swimming, or the gym for Krieger."
"And Sanne," Aelita finally speaks up. "Jeremie remember we said she could train."
"I, yes." Jeremie still didn't like it but he had agreed to it. "Maybe take them to the beta Extinction Park. We just added two Siberian Tigers and an African Elephant. The tigers are beautiful." Jeremie smiles. He had been there for the creation from the artificial wombs.
"Well, whatever we do we can't leave them alone. All those hormones, I know what it was like to be a teen." Ulrich looks over at Yumi.
"Oh so you're still a teen?" The adults laugh as they make plans to keep the teens busy.
Mira is arguing with Ark on the phone. "Come on Ark! We need you!"
"Need me? You did well last time."
"But we had Krieger and Sanne there! Please, we need you Ark. I'll do anything just please come!"
"Anything? Fine, give me Sanne's Jpocket."
"I, well, ok." Mira doesn't know why Ark would want it. He didn't know the password to get access to it. She had but forgotten it so she couldn't give it to him. "Just hurry!"
"Fine." Ark hangs up on Mira then heads for the Factory.
In Russia the parents set up a trip to the beta version of the Extinction Park. "Dress warm its cool out here."
"Yes dad I know." Sanne rolls her eyes. "I, I need to tell Krieger about something, ok?" Sanne had been trying to get alone with Krieger but the parents wouldn't leave her alone.
"Don't be to long." Sanne leaves the room and goes down a hall to the room Krieger was in. Sanne doesn't knock and just walks in. Krieger was changing into some warmer clothes and was wearing just boxers.
"What the hell are you doing?" Krieger doesn't yell just grabs a long sleeved shirt and puts it on.
"Krieger I need to talk to you! Please listen to me."
"I've listened to you and I don't want to hear it anymore."
"But Krieger it's been more then a week since we, you, broke up with me. But you haven't started dating anyone else. You still love me! I know you do and I love you! Why can't we work things out?"
"Because I don't love you. I can barely keep myself from throwing you out of this room. I haven't dated anyone else and I won't date anyone else until Xana is beaten. Until then I will be single."
"But, I don't want to break up with you!"
"Then you shouldn't have cheated on me." Krieger is cold. "There is nothing you can do to fix that."
"There, there," There is. But I'd have to modify everyone's memory. If I messed up they'd be worse then a comatose person. I can't do it. "I'm sorry what else do I have to do!"
"Leave me alone. I'll tolerate you for the week but after this, except for Xana, don't talk to me."
"Krieger I don't want that! I still love you!"
"Frak you Sanne. You love me but then you say you love Dante. You don't love me. You can't love me if you would kiss and do things with Dante. I can't believe you'd think that telling me would have made any difference. What, you think you could come up to me and say Gee Krieger I've been rocking the bed with Dante but let's stay together ok?" Krieger does a horrible impersonation of Sanne.
"I've never done that with Dante! We, we never went past second base. I never wanted to do more with him because I love you. I, I don't even know why I started doing things with him."
"But you then said you loved him."
"I, I did. I do, but not as much as I love you."
"I don't care. You don't love me. You love him, I'm just being used." Krieger finds a pair of long pants and puts them on. "I will keep the act up for the week but after that we are through. You used to be my girlfriend. You used to be my friend. Now you're just a fellow Lyoko Warrior."
"I still want to be your girlfriend and friend! Please," Sanne gets down on her knees and starts to beg. "I'll do anything Krieger!"
"You're pathetic. Get up." Sanne does but continues to plead with Krieger who continues to ignore her.
A few minutes later Yumi knocks on the door. "Hey the car is ready."
"We'll be right there." Krieger looks at Sanne. "You look like a mess. Clean up before you leave so the parents don't ask any stupid questions."
"I, Krieger, please." Sanne was destroyed. She needed Krieger. She loved him, and she knew she loved him more then Dante. There was something with Dante that wasn't with Krieger but that didn't matter now. That missing piece was overcome by her love for Krieger.
"No." Krieger walks over to Sanne. "Sanne, I, I don't hate you. But I don't love you. I don't like you. I actually regret Sora dieing to save you. Sora never cheated on me. When she said she loved me she meant it. But I was too obsessed over you to see that. Sora was a million times better then you are. She died to save you and now I see you didn't deserve to be saved." Krieger pushes his way past Sanne to get to the door. Sanne has to keep her tears back.
"I know. I'll never be as good as Sora." Krieger turns around. "She, Sora was better then me. She never would have done this." Sanne sniffs trying to hold herself together. "I'm sorry."
"You are Sanne. I know you are. But that doesn't change anything. I don't love you. I'll never forgive you. I loved you more then anyone else but you betrayed me. For that half virus freak."
"He's not a freak. He, he told me if I ever, that he wouldn't stop me. He wanted me to be happy no matter what. He said that I could break up with him at anytime and stay with you and he wouldn't tell you. He just wanted me to be happy. I, I want to be happy with you." Sanne reaches towards Krieger.
"Sanne don't frakking touch me." Krieger opens the door and leaves the room. "I'm ready. Sanne said she needs to do something in the bathroom. Probably doing her hair again. Dad what is it about women and hair?"
"I don't know Krieger." Things go smoothly after Sanne washes her face and tries to stay strong around Krieger.
At the Factory Dante is getting nervous. He would be the only one on Lyoko. This could be bad. If Xana got him then it would be over. And he didn't even know what the attack was.
Ark is going down the sewers when he catches up to Mira. "Why are you going so slow?"
"I was waiting for you." Mira kisses him hard. "I wanted to thank you for coming. I know you don't want to but here." Mira hands the Jpocket to Ark. "As I agreed."
"Thanks." Ark still hadn't figured out what he would do. Maybe Sanne left a diary on her Jpocket or something. He needed to do something. Sanne sent his sister home and cheated on his best friend. She needed to learn a lesson.
"Now come on!" Mira continues to the Factory and Ark follows.
Dante looks through the security cameras when the alarm sounds. "Barack made it, good. Two more to go." Dante taps on the computer chair arm as he gets more nervous.
Sanne and Krieger take the quick trip to the beta Extinct Park but problems come up fast. "What's that noise?" Ulrich and the others hear a loud buzzing noise.
"A cage must have been opened without authorization." Jeremie gets concerned. "Stay here. I'll go check on what's going on." Great, first tour with outsiders not on my pay roll and something goes wrong. Jeremie walks off to find an employee to yell at.
Dante and Barack are waiting for the others when the alarm sounds again. "They're here, good. Take the ladder down." Barack doesn't say anything just goes over to the ladder and takes it down. The elevator moves and doesn't stop at the Control Room. "I guess they don't want to talk to me." Dante brings up their profiles. "Transfer Barack, Transfer Ark, Transfer Mira, Scanner Barack, Scanner Ark, Scanner Mira, and virtualization." They land on Lyoko in the Ice Sector. Dante sends the vehicles then sends himself to Lyoko.
"Where do we go?" Barack is on the Overboard already.
"Southeast. The barrier wasn't that large but Xana knows Sanne isn't here. Whatever he is doing will be large scale. It has to be so we'll be forced to launch a return." They take off for the activated Tower.
Sanne and Krieger get concerned when Jeremie returns and tells them they had to leave. "Why daddy?" Sanne tries to act sweet and innocent.
"Gates are malfunctioning all over the place. It isn't safe around here if the Raptor Paddock goes." Jeremie practically pushes the group towards the parking lot when there is a loud bestial roar. "Shit, the Tyrannosaurus got out." Another roar more deep comes. "The tigers, millions of dollars, damn it." Jeremie knows if, when the animals kill each other he'll be out a few fortunes. But he is more worried about employees. If they get killed the lawsuits will only add on to the losses. "Hurry the Tyrannosaurus is loose! We don't want to deal with that thing!" Jeremie pushes the others making them hurry.
On Lyoko the group sees the activated Tower and several monsters. "I'm still not used to not seeing Sora." Barack aims his laser gun at a Krabe. "I've never fought this type before."
"I, I don't remember ever seeing it." Mira is confused. "Ark is this new?"
"No it's a Krabe. I wonder why though." As they get close they see why. There are five Krabes, five Tarantulas, and three Blocks. He wasn't sending powerful monsters he was sending many weak ones.
"Quantity over quality." Dante gets his wand out. "We have to be careful."
"No, you have to be careful." Ark sneers at Dante.
"Yes, I do." Dante slows down on the Overbike and falls behind. "If you can't beat them at least try to distract them."
"We can do it. Right Barack?" Ark felt closer to Barack now that Skitz was gone. He hopes that Barack will hate Sanne as much as he does because of it. But so far it seemed Barack was glad Skitz was getting help.
"We'll try." Barack fires at a Krabe and even from the distance he was at is able to hit the large symbol on the back. "Look at that!" He fires more but the monsters scramble.
"This will be harder." Dante activates the flight controls of the Overbike. "I have to fight there are too many of them." Dante points his wand at the crowd of monsters. "Alakazam!" The energy beam comes out and hits and destroys two Blocks and a Krabe. "That should help."
"Stay back you idiot!" Ark creates his spear. "We can't risk losing you!" Ark dives at the remaining monsters ready for a fight.
In Russia a van is packed with people and flying down the road. Behind the van was chaos. Animals extinct for years, some millions, were rampaging. "I need to call the others." Sanne whispers this into Krieger's ear. "Tell them we need a return launched." Krieger turns to her and whispers back.
"Will a return reach out here?"
"Of course. The return affects everything. Or do you think Paris is a few days, weeks, behind the rest of the world?"
"I, I never thought of that." Krieger thinks for a minute. "Just text message them. They'll read it and launch one."
"Ok," Sanne gets her Jcell out and text messages Dante's phone. It is only after she puts it away she notices Aelita, Yumi, and Jeremie were staring. "Uh, we were just uh, talking about um, something."
"Planning on sneaking out and getting some alone time?" Jeremie raises an eye brow.
"Yes." Krieger looks at Sanne. "I guess we've been caught. Oh well." Krieger doesn't sound too disappointed.
"Straight to your rooms, both of you. And no trying to sneak out. We trust you kids but we know what we were like when we were your age." Yumi stares at her son wondering what was going on. He almost seemed happy to be kept apart from Sanne. "Do you understand?"
"Yes." Both teens say this at once.
Back on Lyoko Ark, Barack, and Mira are doing ok. They had all been hit by lasers but they were down to two Tarantulas. "Dante head for the Tower!" Ark dodges lasers as he tries to get close with his spear.
"Yes, now it should be safe." Dante revs the engine of the Overbike and drives for the Tower. Unfortunately on Lyoko no one was safe. As Dante gets close to the activated Tower Xana appears!
"Hello Son did you really think it was that easy?" Xana sparks with energy. "I have attacked, on a grand scale. Your little girlfriend is in grave danger. So far into the grave she's dealing with extinction!" Xana laughs evilly. "Now, to send you back to Earth so I will win."
"Never!" Barack dives at Xana firing lasers. He dodges the lasers fired from the Tarantulas but is just on a suicide dive for Xana.
"Stealth." Mira disappears.
"Alakazam!" Dante tries to clear the way with an energy beam but Xana is too strong.
"All these attacks and yet it is all power wasted." Xana creates energy orbs and throws them at Dante. Dante dodges them.
"Got it," Mira sneaks up on a Tarantula and destroys it. The other one turns towards her general direction and fires. Mira easily dodges them and destroys it leaving Xana.
"Oh this is just so much fun I do believe I must do this more often!" Xana sends out more energy orbs and starts to spark with energy sending out energy bolts. "Tremble children!"
"Hell no." Ark jumps off of his disc. "Dante get ready!" Ark uses his psychic connection to the disc and sends it at Xana. Xana hits it with an energy bolt but Ark keeps it in the air. Barack jumps off of the Overboard getting his BFK out. He rams it into Xana's back when he lands.
"Alakazam!" Dante sends an energy beam at Xana hoping to do as much damage as possible. Mira runs up, still invisible, and attacks Xana with her Kodachi.
"No, not like this!" Xana explodes with energy destroying three of the Warriors. "Oh well was fun while it lasted. Now Son do go back to Earth." Xana sends an energy bolt at Dante but he dodges it.
"I can't fail. Not if Sanne is in danger."
On Earth the attack is getting worse. The animals have breached the compound and start to look for prey.
Dante is circling the activated Tower trying to get around Xana's attack. "If you kill anyone the adults will be called in!"
"Oh I am sure I can handle them now." Xana throws an energy orb at Dante. "Your pathetic little group is no longer a threat or a challenge. They all hate you except for Sanne. And they all hate Sanne except for you. The hatred of you and Sanne does seem to unite the others though." Xana laughs wickedly. "What will you do when she breaks up with you? She loves Krieger more. Why do you think she cries all the time? She loves him."
"I know she loves him! But she loves me too." Dante fires energy orbs out of his wand. "And I love her."
"And what of Naia? Oh yes I have noticed her return to Lyoko. Where she was or what she is I do not know."
"I love her to but I love Sanne also!" Dante dodges an energy bolt. It was getting harder and harder the closer he got but he had to make it into the Tower.
On Earth Sanne and Krieger were wondering what to do. The animals had escaped and were moving towards the small town near the cottage. "We have to try something." Sanne whispers this into his ear.
"But what? I don't think Xana possessed them just let them loose. They don't care who we are."
"I know and that makes it impossible to stop. A return is the only way." Sanne realizes that one would be done no matter what so takes her chances. "Krieger, I love you." She kisses him hard on the mouth before he can push her away. This does not go unnoticed by the parents, especially Jeremie.
"Sanne knock that off before I send you back to Kadic before vacation is over!" Sanne breaks the kiss with Krieger.
"Out of the way Xana!" Dante jumps off of the Overbike and it crashes into Xana. Dante rolls on the ground then jumps up and makes it into the Tower.
"Oh well. I will simply become stronger." Xana waits for Dante to launch a return.
Sanne finds herself in Krieger's room again. "Krieger I, I already told you everything I could."
"Yes, yes you did." Krieger stares at her. "Get, out." Krieger wipes his mouth like something disgusting was on his lips. "Now!" Sanne flinches then leaves the room trying not to cry.
Ark is outside of Mira's room and knocks on the door. "Come in." He opens the door and sees Mira is on the Jpocket.
"That's mine, remember the deal."
"I know. I just can't remember the password so we can use it. The Super Scan is still activated but you won't be able to tell where the Tower is." Mira hands the Jpocket to Ark.
"The password?" Ark opens the Jpocket and tries to get into it. "Tell me the password Mira."
"That's just it I don't remember it." Mira looks away. "I'm going to get us all killed because I can't remember a stupid password."
"No you won't." Ark hugs Mira. "Sanne and Dante are the ones who are going to get us killed. She just had to free Dante. She just had to leave the Super Computer on. She just had to find the damn Factory in the first place!" Ark turns around and leaves Mira's room getting even madder at Sanne and Dante.
A/N Just some stuff between Sanne and Krieger, and the group with out Sanne and Krieger on Lyoko. And the parents, and… Well you know. Enjoy this episode!
