Sanne wakes up and feels the warmth of Skitz in her arms. "That's right I'm in this world now." Sanne has a rush of feelings that she wasn't used to. In this world she realizes she really liked Skitz. She has her memories and blushes at some of the things they had done and is surprised no one knew yet. So far they had been able to hide their relationship from the others. Sanne looks at her clock and sees it is time to get up for school but the alarm hadn't gone off. "Must be a weekend." Sanne looks at Skitz and has her rush of feelings. Sanne doesn't know what to do. The Sanne in this world, real world, liked Skitz a lot but she has memories of the Skitz on drugs. She has memories that taint her view of Skitz and she has other emotions. "I wonder what Dante is doing right now."
Dante is on Lyoko working on a new program. Since Sanne seemed to get everything to work so fast it gave him time to work on other things. "Hmmm, yes, if I do that then maybe I can get Xana to Earth where we can kill him like a normal human being." Dante continues to work as the other Lyoko Warriors start their early morning Saturday.
Sanne and Skitz are in the shower. Sanne blushes a bright red knowing Skitz is looking at her as more than a friend. Thankfully there are other students there keeping Skitz at bay. Sanne knows that while she was, gone, that she had done things with Skitz and even now she felt something but Skitz wasn't Dante. She, Sanne wasn't sure what she was now. Was she really going between two places? And why? Dante said that this world could be real as well as the other. Parallel Universes. And if either Xana made contact with the other one Universe would be destroyed. One Xana had three energy orbs and the other had two. Combined they'd have five and that kind of power would make Sanne obsolete. Sanne gets out of the shower, dries off, and dresses before going to breakfast.
Sitting at the breakfast table Sanne is feeling strange. Krieger and Ark didn't hate her in this world but they didn't sit with her. Krieger was still dating Maria and Ark was with a new girl for this week. Only Skitz would sit with her. "What are you doing today Skitz?" Sanne tries to make small talk wondering what to do. She wanted to go back but what if she was dead? She had fallen a couple hundred meters onto the bridge. She might never go back now.
"Well I thought we were going to the mall, see a movie and stuff." Skitz saying this activates memories of making a date.
"I mean like, before that. I mean we don't have to leave immediately. Unless you want to or something." Sanne wants to stall. If she had to go on a date with Skitz it would be too weird. That morning her emotions, this world Sanne's emotion, had flooded her. Would they again if they were in a dark movie theater?
"Well if we left early we could do some shopping or go to the salon. Get our hair done, nails, facials. Not that you need it your skin is beautiful." Skitz smiles at Sanne making Sanne's face flush with color.
"It's the Scanners. Our parents never had acne or bad teeth because of the Scanners. Your skin is clean to right Skitz?"
"Yeah, the Scanners are great." They continue to eat.
Dante is ready. "It was so simple. With Xana this weak we'll have no trouble. I should be able to handle it. On Earth he'll have no powers. I could kill him. Convince Sanne to leave me alone and go back to Lyoko and have them turn the Super Computer off." Dante sighs. "I will miss chocolate though. But after what I did on Earth I don't deserve to be here." Dante contemplates using his new program now.
Sanne and Skitz are at the mall walking closely. Skitz notices stares and looks from random boys. "Sanne, are you happy?"
"Huh?"
"Are you happy with us? I mean, today you seemed distant, you know? I see all these guys checking us out and it would be easier for you wouldn't it? We can't exactly date in the open. I don't want to hear the jokes from my brother." Sanne stops. She could stop things now but what about the other Sanne? The Sanne that was here when she wasn't? That Sanne liked Skitz.
"I, I'm happy Skitz." Sanne reaches out and grabs Skitz's hand giving it a squeeze then letting it go. They go shopping, mostly Skitz buying clothes, before going to the movies.
Dante decides that he had to do it. He could get a simple kitchen knife and stab Xana once he was on Earth. Sanne had left him some money and with that he'd buy a knife, use the program, and kill Xana himself.
Sanne and Skitz are watching the movie when Sanne starts to get uncomfortable. "Skitz people might see us."
"Its dark and no one is paying attention to us." Skitz continues to make moves. Sanne is about to push her away when her Jpocket beeps. "Super Scan!" Sanne jumps out of her seat yelling this. People shush her but she ignores them getting her Jpocket out. "Ice Sector, come on Skitz." Sanne runs out of the theater and Skitz quickly follows her.
Dante is coming back from a store with a butcher knife. He was ready to end this. As he gets on the elevator…
"Wait," Sanne checks her Jpocket. "He stopped, what happened?"
"I don't know." Skitz looks at the screen. "He failed already? Or maybe Dante was on Lyoko and deactivated it?"
"I, Xana's not that weak." Sanne and Skitz had already called the others. "We better keep going." Sanne and Skitz continue to the Factory.
Dante starts the countdown. He takes the ladder down to the Scanner Room and waits for Xana to come out. The middle Scanner closes then soon, when it opens… "What do you think you are doing?"
"Die Xana!" Dante lunges at Xana with the knife. Xana smacks it away then grabs Dante by the throat.
"Fool. You must know I was watching you. I knew what you were planning and sabotaged your program."
"No!" Dante pulls away from Xana. "You're on Earth, it worked." Dante kicks at Xana but he grabs Dante's leg.
"Almost." Xana sparks with energy. "I have retained my powers. I also have my connection to Lyoko!"
Sanne hears her Jpocket beep. "He's attacking again, good thing we didn't stop." Sanne see the Factory and sees Ark climbing out of the sewers. "Ark!" Sanne gets his attention.
"Hey, where were you two?"
"At the mall cruising for boys." Skitz laughs at Ark's reaction. "Don't worry we catch and release." She runs down the bridge laughing as Ark chases after her.
"Wow. They're so, so, not," Sanne doesn't know what to think. This group was light hearted. They weren't dark, at each others throats. This group was better then the other. They may be missing Mira and Barack, Sora and Naia, but they were a group. These Lyoko Warriors liked her, loved her still. Sanne fights back tears as she follows the twins.
Sanne and the other two take the elevator down to the Control Room and when they step off they hear a fight below. "What the heck?" Ark goes over and looks down the ladder and sees Dante being beaten by Xana. "Xana!" Ark slides down the ladder, jumps off, and tackles Xana.
"Ah, another one comes to play!" Xana sparks with energy and shocks Ark. "You fool do you know what my son tried to do? He thought he could drag me to Earth and kill me! So I decided to trick him." Xana strikes Ark hard.
"Leave him alone!" Skitz is only halfway down the ladder when she leaps off and tackles Xana knocking him to the ground.
"Guys get in the Scanners so I can send you!" Sanne is panicking wondering just what Xana was up to. What did he mean Dante tried to drag him to Earth? "Hurry!" She sees Dante get in a Scanner while the twins fight with Xana. "That will have to do. Transfer Dante, Scanner Dante, and virtualization." Dante lands on Lyoko in the Ice Sector. "Guys, wait," The alarm sounds alerting Sanne that Krieger had made it to the Factory. "Well still hurry you can't fight Xana he's too strong!" Sanne hears the elevator run and is glad Krieger takes it straight to the Scanner Room. He lunges and attacks Xana allowing a hurt Ark and Skitz to get into the Scanner. "Transfer Ark, Transfer Skitz, Scanner Ark, Scanner Skitz, and virtualization." She sends them to Lyoko then the vehicles. "Krieger get in the Scanners!"
"I can't!" Krieger is locked in combat with Xana. "You go!" Krieger kicks Xana hard but Xana is able to come back with a powered punch. This reminds Sanne of the beginning of the other world.
"Ok, don't die on me Krieger!" Sanne sets up the auto transfer then hurries down the ladder to the Scanner Room. She throws herself into the middle Scanner avoiding an energy bolt from Xana just as the doors start to close.
Sanne lands on Lyoko next to the others. "We have to go south, hurry!"
"What about Krieger?" Sanne turns and sees Ark and stops. She hadn't seen him yet. Memories come showing her that he was missing his spear and disc. He was no longer a giant purple monkey. Instead he was more like Skitz, shiny armor covering his body. His weapon was two sets of claws coming out of his wrist. Sanne realizes he doesn't need his disc anymore since this Ark's subconscious gave him a power that the other one had just more powerful. Super Sprint.
"He isn't coming." Sanne gets on the Overbike as Skitz gets on the Overboard and Dante gets on the Overwing. Ark crouches like he was ready for a race then takes off. He was a blur and the others chased after him. Sanne finds the Overbike is faster and the Overboard catches up with Ark quickly but the Overwing again was lacking in speed compared to the others.
Krieger wrestles with Xana when Xana sparks with energy and shocks him badly. "Stay down boy. I have some revenge that is about twenty years cold." Xana turns into a black mist and disappears from the Scanner Room.
Samantha is working on the garden at the Hermitage when she hears footsteps. She turns around and screams. "Xana!" She throws her trowel at Xana as she backs away.
"Samantha, still beautiful. A little older but still beautiful. I have missed being inside of you. After all those years with you as my host I have this urge to make you mine again. I won't as you are old and weak but that urge is still there." Xana smiles evilly. "But I have another urge, an urge to kill those who trapped me!"
"Aaaa!" Samantha screams as Xana attacks her. But he doesn't kill her outright. No, he was going to have some fun with her first.
Sanne and the others are getting close to the activated Tower when monsters appear. "We haven't seen those before. They're probably what, Assassins?"
"Yes, Assassins." Sanne concentrates on her energy readying a Scattershot.
"Sanne watch out!" Skitz's warning distracts Sanne from her energy but was glad. A Dragon had appeared and was going straight for her. Sanne fires a regular energy beam but misses.
"I should let them be." Dante has no weapons or powers and knows that the others aren't needed. All he had to do was get in the Tower. He looks down and sees Ark running circles around the two Assassins. The Assassins fire at him but miss. "As long as they are distracted I can make it." Dante flies away from the others on the Overwing.
"Scattershot!" The energy beam comes out and splits apart into six beams. The Dragon dodges them and fires lasers of its own. Skitz flies up on the Overboard with her spear out.
"Leave her alone!" Skitz throws her spear at the Dragon. It turns and sees the spear then dodges it. Sanne takes her chance and fires an energy beam hitting the Dragon on the back. This damages its wings and the Dragon falls out of the sky.
"Ok now we need to take out the Assassins and then, hey," Sanne notices that Dante wasn't there. "Dante!" Sanne revs the engine of the Overbike and takes off towards the activated Tower.
"Well, Ark is handling the Assassins I better go help Sanne and Dante." Skitz takes off after Sanne.
"Hey they're leaving me behind. So unfair." Ark continues to circles the Assassins getting closer and closer ready to strike.
Xana is carrying an unconscious Samantha on his shoulder and is walking towards Kadic Academy. Jim would get an awful surprise very soon.
Ark decides this was it. He turns and uses his superior speed to get past the guard of an Assassin and slashes at a leg cutting it off. He turns, again using his speed and slashes at the leg of the other Assassin. "Try following us now tripods." Ark takes off after the others.
Jim is washing the windows on the garden shed when he hears footsteps. "You kids know the garden shed is…" He turns around and sees Xana with Samantha. "Xana, what did you do to her?!"
"I merely knocked her out. I wanted her to watch me torture you." Xana sparks with energy and wakes Samantha up. "Hello sleepy head. Are you ready to enter the nightmare?"
"Leave him alone! How did you get out!?"
"Your children let me out. They are on Lyoko right now in fact. Well, Krieger isn't. But he isn't dead, yet." Xana laughs a little. "Are you scared? Angry? Worried? Please tell me."
"Why do you care?"
"I don't I just want to hear your words before you die." Xana sparks with energy and strikes Jim on the right knee. "I want to hear your screams!" Xana strikes Jim on the other knee bringing him to the ground.
Dante is close to the activated Tower when three Blocks and a squad of Kankrelats appear. "He's making this harder then I thought. I may want to wait for the others." Dante stops on the Overwing and looks behind him to see Sanne coming fast on the Overbike. "The girl will be enough. She appears to have powers that she is unaware of." Dante had been watching the others and had noticed Sanne's powers. So far it seems he was the only one. Of course the Sanne on Lyoko now knew of her powers unlike the Sanne that Dante was used to. "Sanne create a Scattershot."
"Already working on it." Sanne drives by him concentrating on her energy. She wants to take out as many monsters as possible with a single strike. "Scattershot!" The energy beam comes out and breaks into nine more striking three Kankrelats and one Block. "Pretty good but not good enough." Sanne dodges lasers.
Xana is torturing Jim as Samantha watches when something alerts him to a problem on Lyoko. "What was that? That power, it could prove to be dangerous." Xana breaks apart into a black mist so concerned with what he felt he doesn't finish Jim or Samantha off.
"Jim!" Samantha crawls over to him. "Honey, are you, are you ok?" Samantha is trying not to cry but failing.
"I'm not ok but I'll live." Jim struggles to stay awake. "This reminds me of the time I was on the search team in the Himalayas and I fell. I must have…" Jim passes out.
Sanne is dodging lasers firing back lasers of her own when Xana appears. "She has power. Power I could use." Xana flies down towards her.
"Sanne!" Skitz is coming as fast as she can on the Overboard when she sees Xana dive for her friend. "Watch out!" Skitz points and Sanne looks to see Xana. Sanne fires an energy beam at Xana.
"Foolish girl your power is great but you don't know how to use it!" Xana is ready to strike.
"I do know how to use it!" Sanne activates the flight controls on the Overbike and takes off into the air firing laser beams at Xana.
"What the heck is going on?" Ark catches up to his sister. "Why are Sanne and Xana playing follow the leader?"
"I don't know but we have to help her." Skitz starts to go towards Sanne and Xana when Dante yells.
"Destroy the monsters! If I deactivate the Tower then the attack is over!" Dante continues to try and get to the Tower but the remaining monsters keep him at bay. "Hurry!"
"Fine!" Skitz dives at the Kankrelats using her spear to block lasers.
"On it." Ark charges the Blocks dodging lasers. One spins then fires a fire ring. Ark dives through it.
Sanne is going higher and higher into the air ready to trap Xana. This Xana was weak and she should, would, be able to take him out. The regular Sanne would be scared and panicking but this Sanne knew how to use her powers, that she had them. "Die Xana!" Sanne jumps off of the Overbike as her wings explode from her back. Her powers are about to crush Xana, or so she thinks.
"What is this?" Xana backs away as Sanne flies towards him. "That power will be mine!"
"Never!" Sanne tackles him and they fall from the sky. Sanne fires an energy beam point blank range into Xana's face. Xana charges with energy and it forms around his hands. He puts them on Sanne's shoulders and tries to shock her.
"How to get that power? Make you my host? Would you like that little girl?" Xana smiles evilly.
"Frak you!" Sanne pushes Xana off of her and spreads her wings. She glides a meter off of the ground then goes back up into the sky.
"I think not little girl." Xana flies after her.
Ark dodges another fire ring. He dodges a laser from the other Block, turns, and strikes it across the Eye destroying it.
Skitz is flying around over the Kankrelats. They fire lasers at her but she easily dodges them. She dives and shoves her spear into one destroying it. She is hit by a laser from the last Kankrelat but she only loses ten life points.
Sanne is trying to draw Xana away from the activated Tower to keep Dante and the others safe. "Come on Xana you're so slow the Overwing could go faster!" Sanne taunts him trying to buy more time for Dante.
"Foolish girl I will posses you and have that power!" Xana sparks with more energy and catches up with Sanne knocking her to the ground.
"I don't think so." Sanne's eyes have energy sparking around them. Her trap would work. She got the idea from remembering when she first came to Lyoko. How weak she was and how hard of a time she had of controlling her power. Now she could control it and would use it to make herself explode. "Bye Xana." Sanne explodes with energy knocking Xana back.
"That damn girl! She tricked me!" Xana turns back towards the activated Tower ready to defend it.
Ark is spinning around the Block getting closer and closer as Skitz destroys the last Kankrelat. Dante goes to the activated Tower and quickly gets in. Xana sees this and decides not to let Sanne go for her trickery. He goes to Earth and finds Sanne kneeling next to the unconscious Krieger. "Hello Poppins." Sanne looks up just as Xana attacks her.
"No!" Sanne on Lyoko was cocky and sure of herself. On Earth she had no powers. Xana sparks with energy to pin her to the floor.
"That power is mine!" Xana leans down and kisses Sanne. Sanne feels Xana try to enter her but has trouble. She knew he couldn't posses her, right? Or was this world different? After all in this world, the real world, she had been in a plane accident. Her friend's profiles were different. So many things were different would this also be different?
Sanne wakes up on her bed in the dorm room. She sits up then looks over at her roommate. Would it be Skitz or Mars? She looks at the pillow and sees red hair. "I'm back. I, I guess I didn't die." Soon her door opens and Mira comes in. "Mira what happened?"
"Krieger found you then came back and told Dante to launch a return. I'm glad you're ok."
"Wait so that would have only been a few minutes." Sanne had been in the other world for hours, nearly half a day.
"Krieger said you were in bad shape. You had brained your damage pretty badly." Mira smiles and laughs at her joke.
"What's going on?" Mars yawns and sits up.
"Nothing, go back to bed. Mira, tell the others." Sanne lies back down in her bed wondering if it was good to be back. What about the other world? Had Xana possessed her? The other Sanne? Or would Xana be too weak to posses her on Earth in that timeline also? And was she glad to be back in the world that she knew? Here she had Dante but everyone else… Not so much. Well, Mira still liked her but Mira wasn't Krieger or Ark or Skitz. Mira wasn't someone who she grew up with. "Please, don't get any worse." Sanne begs, pleads, and prays that life was as bad as it would get. If it got any worse, well, she didn't know if she could handle it.
