Sanne is trying to get used to the other world. They were months behind where she was in the other and going over her history project again. She had done it already so she was going through it fast but Skitz wanted help. "Ok Skitz just add this section here." Sanne places down an article on the particle board. As Sanne works with Skitz it reminds her of when Xana attacked sending her and Skitz into the history book. But it had been two days and no Xana attacks.
"Thanks babe I can't believe how fast you went through yours. I mean this is an American History project and I'm lost once we get to the Civil War." Skitz shakes her head. "Hopeless aren't I?"
"No you aren't Skitz." Sanne was kind of uncomfortable when Skitz called her babe. The Sanne from this world had feelings for Skitz and they did influence Sanne but she still had her feelings for Dante and Krieger. The Other World Sanne was probably in love with this Skitz and those emotions tried to come out but Sanne was still uncomfortable with them. "I feel like I've already done this before since my tutors had me do something like this before."
"Oh. Well how about we take a break?" The sound of Skitz's voice worries Sanne who comes up with a quick excuse.
"Um I'm you know, time of the month and stuff."
"Oh," Skitz pouts. "Well I still want a break been working at this for nearly three hours now." Skitz was noticing a difference in Sanne. Usually she'd be hugging her or at least putting a hand on her shoulder. Other World Sanne liked lots of contact even if it was just holding hands. But Skitz noticed that Sanne had changed.
"Ok Skitz we can take a break." Sanne smiles making Skitz feel better. "What do you want to do?"
"I don't know I'm feeling hungry and dinner isn't for an hour. How about we sneak out and get something to eat?"
"Sure." Sanne and Skitz leave their room.
Xana watches the two wondering what he could do. He noticed that Sanne had changed also but in a different way. This Sanne seemed happier and more confident. This Sanne didn't seem to be as afraid as she had been. Xana of course would love to change this.
Sanne and Skitz climb out of the sewers near the mall. "How did you know the way Sanne? Been sneaking here behind my back?" Skitz laughs showing she was joking around.
"No I just know the way. Looked it up on Gaggle Maps. Where do you want to go first?"
"Food court then maybe do some clothe shopping. Mmm, see you changing, maybe go underwear shopping." Skitz growls making Sanne more uncomfortable. "Maybe have you help me change?"
"Uh, maybe. I don't really feel like that though you know cramps and stuff." Sanne hopes Skitz will buy her lame excuse.
"You're no fun." Skitz sticks her tongue out showing she was joking around. "But I know how it feels so you're forgiven." Skitz gives Sanne a quick kiss on the lips before they go into the mall.
Xana comes up with a great idea for how to attack without it being known. He activates a Tower then deactivates it only to activate a different one. He does this so the Super Scan will not find it.
Krieger and his girlfriend are making out in the woods when there is a sudden breeze. They ignore it until the breeze becomes stronger and stronger. "What's going on?" Michelle gets up. "You think a storm is coming?"
"I don't know." The breeze gets stronger and nearly knocks the two teens over. "Man that's crazy!"
"I know," Michelle grabs onto Krieger for support. "Let's go back ok Krieger?" He nods and they take off for the school.
Ark is coming back from the gym after being smacked by his now ex girlfriend. "Well then there's another one down. Who's left in our grade that I haven't dated?" Ark thinks about this not noticing the breeze. "Hmmm, Skitz, Sanne, and that Mira chick. Can't date Skitz since she's my sister but Sanne might be fun. Of course she'll be hard to convince. I wonder where Mira…" Ark is interrupted when a trash can bounces and hits him. "What the frak?" The breeze gets extreme and knocks him over. "Man that's crazy!" Ark gets up and runs for the nearest building.
Dante is on Lyoko when he feels the pulsations. He goes to Earth as soon as possible to call the others but finds his phone was broken by Xana. "If I can't call them then I better hope they figure it out on their own." Dante isn't so sure of this. He had a rather low opinion of the group. After Sanne's amazing ability to get the vehicles working and transfer the others and other programs she seemed to get stupid. Of course he didn't know that the Sanne that did all that wasn't the same as the one afterwards. "Hurry…" Dante stays in the chair waiting.
Sanne and Skitz are oblivious to the attack as they eat then shop.
Ark is hiding in a gazebo from the wind. "Ok no call from Sanne so not a Xana attack." Ark sits next to a soda machine using it to block the wind. He gets so comfortable he doesn't feel the soda machine tip as the wind gets more violent until it is too late. "Aaaa!" Ark reacts at the last second but isn't fast enough and his right leg gets pinned by the soda machine.
Dante soon notices that the Super Scan isn't detecting the Tower. "I know I felt pulsations. Xana's up to something." Dante checks the Super Scan for errors and doesn't find any. "Hmm, set it on one for now so I can look at the inner code." Dante sets the Super Scan on one Tower while he goes to do a deep search on the Super Scan when it activates. "What the?"
"What the?" Sanne hears her Jpocket beeping. She gets it out. "Xana's attacking we have to…" The Tower deactivates. "He's playing with us." Sanne is about to put her Jpocket away when she notices the Super Scan isn't scanning. "He did something to the Super Scan. We better go Skitz."
"Fine." Skitz sighs. "Just when we were having fun. Let me put these clothes back ok?"
"Leave them we don't know if we'll need a return and even if we don't who cares if we're sloppy?"
"Good point." Skitz and Sanne run out of the store. When they leave the mall they get hit by the strong breeze.
"I think this is the attack!" Sanne puts her arms up to block her face as tree limbs and small objects blow by them.
"We need to get to the sewer entrance!" They struggle against the wind trying to get to the sewer entrance.
Krieger and his girlfriend are in her dorm room when the window shatters. The wind comes into the room and sends things flying. "Aaaa!" She screams and runs out of her room with Krieger right behind her.
"This is insane!" Krieger gets his Jcell out and calls Sanne but she doesn't answer her phone. "This has to be Xana."
"What?"
"Um, stay here ok baby?" Krieger gives his girlfriend a quick kiss on the lips then heads for the staircase.
Ark screams for help but the wind is so strong his screams are drowned out. "Please, please someone help me!"
Sanne and Skitz make it into the sewers and take a rest. "That was crazy babe." Skitz sits down.
"We need to call the others and tell them Xana's attacking." Sanne gets her phone out and sees that Krieger called. She calls him back. "Krieger, Xana is attacking get to the Factory."
"Already on my way. Call Ark I tried and he wouldn't answer." Krieger and Sanne hang up.
Sanne tries calling Ark but he doesn't answer. "Skitz is there any reason why Ark won't answer his phone?"
"Busy with a girl or he can't." Skitz starts to worry. "We really need to think about putting skateboards at the mall sewer entrance so we can go faster from there." Skitz runs as fast as she can for the Factory with Sanne trailing behind her.
The wind gets stronger and stronger. Windows shatter, doors break open, even cars are pushed over by the wind. Soon it gets up to over five hundred kilometers an hour making it impossible to walk outside. This would be a problem as the last part of the trip to the Factory required you to walk across the bridge.
Krieger gets to the end of the sewer passage first and tries to climb out but the wind is so strong the sewer cover is caught and blows away. "Holy frak that was like sixty kilos." The wind whips down into the sewers pushing Krieger down. He hangs on to the ladder but just barely.
Sanne and Skitz get to the end of the sewer passage and feel the breeze coming down. "Krieger what are you doing?"
"We can't go up there the wind is too strong." Krieger climbs down. "The only way to do this is if we tie ourselves together and hope our combined weight is enough. Once Ark gets here we'll find a way to tie ourselves together."
"Ark isn't coming."
"Well then I guess we need to figure it out now." Krieger sure didn't have any rope. "Um, if I take my shirt off and uh one of you do then we can tie them together and put those around our arms."
"Take our shirt off? Which one do you want to see more?" Skitz laughs a little as Krieger blushes.
"It's not like he hasn't seen more when we go swimming and stuff." Sanne takes her shirt off. Krieger had seen her naked before so being in her bra was no big deal. It wasn't this Krieger but she didn't care. Krieger ties the sleeves together then the three wrap the shirts around their arms.
"We have to be very careful. The sewer cover blew away like a cracker or something." The three climb out slowly. Krieger lies down on the ground and crawls slowly trying to stay as low as possible. The wind whips around him and he has a hard time breathing as the wind blows away the air. Sanne and Skitz follow him up and follow his actions.
"Aaaa!" Skitz coughed and lifted from the ground a little being caught by the breeze. It lifts her up and starts to blow her away but being tied to the others she jerks around violently. The other two are being dragged with her.
"Skitz get down!" Krieger tries to grab anything to keep from being dragged away but can't find anything.
"No!" Sanne grabs for anything and gets lucky. She grabs the edge of the open sewer entrance. Skitz flattens to the ground. "Ok be very careful. Slow and careful." The three go back to crawling for the Factory.
The wind near Kadic Academy gets so strong it starts to blow the soda machine on Ark's leg. Soon it rolls over and frees Ark's leg. "Oh Gods," Ark grabs his crushed leg. The wind blows and he starts to be blown across the ground. He bounces off the soda machine then continues to roll across the ground. He slams into a tree causing more pain but as he goes to scream in pain a branch breaks off and hits him in the head knocking him out. Ark tumbles across the ground like a rag doll until he slams into the science building.
Krieger, Sanne, and Skitz are crawling across the bridge sticking to the right side of it so if they got caught by the wind they wouldn't have far to go. "Almost there. I don't know how we'll get to the rope and swing down though tied together like this." Krieger gets even more worried now as he thinks about it. "If we can't get into the Factory then Xana wins."
"We may not want to be in the Factory soon." Sanne can hear the old building groan and creek as the wind pushes on it. "We can't go to slow or the Factory will collapse before we get there."
"If we go to fast we'll be blown away." Krieger wasn't going to be blown away by Xana or risk the other two.
"We don't know how long the Factory will hold!" Sanne crawls a little faster creeping up on Krieger.
"Wait for me!" Skitz crawls a little bit faster to keep up with Sanne. Soon the two girls are practically on top of Krieger.
"Be careful!" Krieger crawls faster and worries even more. The two girls might get them all killed.
Xana sits on Lyoko waiting. He had noticed something different about Sanne and was testing her. "She isn't afraid to push forward. Maybe she knows something I do not. If they make it here I'll have to ask her." Xana continues to watch the three teens crawl across the bridge.
"Almost there!" The wind is so powerful the girls don't hear Krieger as he yells to them. "Just a little bit farther!" Krieger reaches forward and feels the edge of the Factory entrance. He doesn't dare open his eyes knowing the bits of dirt and sand flying around would blind him. He just reaches forward with his other hand and grabs the edge. Krieger pulls himself forward.
"Aaaa!" A large piece of metal hits Skitz on the back. The pain causes her to lose control and when she moves off the ground just a little the wind catches her and pulls her off of the ground.
"No!" Sanne is pulled off of the ground being tied to Skitz.
"Can't let go!" Krieger hangs on to the edge knowing that if he let go of the edge it would be entirely over. "Must hold on!" He pulls himself forward able to get his elbows around the edge then pulls forward even farther. His muscles strain giving everything they had to pull him and the two girls forward.
"Aaaa!" The two girls scream in terror.
"I won't lose to Xana! I will make it and they will make it!" With a last primal scream Krieger pulls himself forward until he gets his waist to the edge. He bends over to drop down from the edge but the wind is so strong he doesn't fall and instead is dragged across the edge as the two girls are blown by the wind. He reaches out and amazingly grabs a rope. He hangs on and as the rope swings around all three teens go over the edge. Krieger isn't strong enough to hang on to the rope and they fall to the Factory floor.
"Are we there yet?" Sanne laughs nervously as she tests her legs out. "Man it's still windy." The wind swirls around inside of the Factory but was nothing like it was outside.
"I can't feel my legs." Skitz tries to move them but can't. The piece of metal that hit her had broken her spine. "I can't feel my legs!" Skitz starts to panic. "Why can't I feel them?!"
"Its ok Skitz we'll get you there." Sanne knows the Scanners will heal Skitz. "Come on people we need to stop this attack." Sanne is so calm and collected the other two are stunned. Sanne grabs Skitz by the arm and sits her up. "Come on Krieger we need to carry her." Sanne wobbles a little as the wind moves around her but she keeps her feet.
"Yeah, help her." Krieger is a little shaken by the fall but with Sanne's leadership he gets up and helps her with Skitz.
"Hmm interesting." Xana is even more intrigued by Sanne. Skitz was seriously hurt and yet Sanne remained calm. Much different then the Sanne he was used to. It was almost as if this Sanne was a different person.
"Dante!" Sanne is surprised to see Dante in the computer chair. She isn't sure why until she has memories flash in her mind. This Dante, this Sanne, were not even friends. This Sanne treated Dante poorly. "Um, why didn't you call telling us of an attack?"
"Because my father broke my phone."
"He's not your father." Sanne goes over to Dante. "Krieger, take Skitz down to the Scanner Room and help her into one." Krieger hits the button and the elevator doors close.
"He is to."
"No he isn't Dante." Sanne looks into his eyes fighting the urge to kiss him. "You're a million times better then Xana. You're fighting him, you're fighting for Earth. You're human and he's a virus." Sanne hugs him but Dante pushes her away. "Sorry I've treated you badly lately."
"We need to send your friends."
"They're your friends too Dante. I'll go down so you can send us at the same time then we'll wait for you." Sanne goes over to the ladder and takes it down to the Scanner Room.
"Transfer Sanne, Transfer Skitz, Transfer Krieger, Scanner Sanne, Scanner Skitz, Scanner Krieger, and virtualization." They land on Lyoko in the Forest Sector. The pulsations show the activated Tower is to the east then change.
"I know what he's doing." Sanne remembers a time where Xana would activate a Tower then deactivate it as he activated another Tower right after. "This is going to be difficult." Sanne sees the vehicles appear then soon Dante virtualizes on Lyoko. "Dante I know what Xana is doing." She explains it out to Dante and the others. "So we have to get either I or Dante into the Tower then send one of us back to watch the Super Scan. The second the Tower activates we need to deactivate it."
"That's some fast thinking. How did you know that is what Xana is doing?" Sanne points to the ground.
"The pulsations change directions. The only way for that to happen is if he is doing what I said."
"Yes, that makes sense." Dante follows the pulsations and sees how they change directions. "We need to go to the closest Tower and deactivate it once it activates." Dante goes over to the Overwing and gets on.
Krieger gets on the Overbike and revs the engine ready to go.
Sanne is about to get on the Overbike behind Krieger then stops. Memories come and she sees that she is supposed to get on the Overboard with Skitz. Sanne runs over and gets on. "The nearest Tower I think is east from here."
"North." Dante takes off for the Tower.
Xana sees where the Lyoko Warriors are going and gets ready for a battle. He sends three Blocks, a Tarantula, and a Hornet to the Tower and decides to just make it the activated Tower.
The Lyoko Warriors see the activated Tower and the welcoming committee. "This should be easy." Sanne focuses on her energy.
"Easy? Five monsters!" The other Lyoko Warriors are nervous. This was more monsters then they were used to. Krieger pulls out the huge sword that was on his back. Sanne realizes that this was the first time she has seen Krieger. No, other Sanne had but not her. This Krieger had no armor. He was not a knight. This Krieger did not see himself as a protector. This Krieger saw himself as a fighter ready to cut down his opponents with a huge sword. A Zanbouto used in Imperial Japan to cut a horse and its rider in one swing. His clothes were tight fitting and all blue his favorite color. What Sanne really notices is how his hair had changed. Sticking out all over the place and a bright blue like his clothes.
"Wow." Sanne loses focus on her energy as she stares at Krieger. "He's so, so, handsome."
"What?" Skitz hears Sanne and is confused.
"I mean um, we, I'm getting off here." Sanne jumps off of the Overboard and lands on the ground firing an energy beam the second she lands. She misses but the monsters focus on her.
"Leave her alone!" Skitz dives at the monsters with her spear out. The Hornet stops firing at Sanne and fires at Skitz.
"Don't forget me!" Krieger charges on the Overbike with his sword ready. He holds it in front of him to block lasers.
"Scattershot!" Sanne fires a beam and it splits into five other beams. She destroys one Block but the other beams miss.
"Watch out!" Skitz throws her spear at a block after it fires a fire ring. Sanne jumps through the middle of it and the spear hits the Eye of the Block destroying it. "Almost got it!" Skitz dodges lasers being fired from the Hornet as she flies down to get her spear.
Krieger gets close to the Tarantula and swings his sword so hard it spins him and the Overbike around. The spinning gives Krieger two advantages. He is hard to hit with a laser and he can't stop even after he cuts the Tarantula in half destroying it. He continues until he gets to the Tower surprising an on looker. "What are you doing!?" Xana had been cut badly by the sword but was powerful enough to stop the blade and Krieger's spinning.
"Xana!" Krieger jumps off of the Overbike and raises his sword. "Die!" Krieger swings as hard as he can but Xana catches the blade.
"You are too slow Krieger. A heavy weapon deals the most damage but first it must hit." Xana rips the sword out of Krieger's hand and tosses it out of the Tower. "And I think its time for you to go back."
"Leave him alone!" Xana turns and sees Sanne running into the Tower. Sanne and the others heard Xana and Sanne was ready. She fires a massive energy beam hitting Xana hard and knocking him backwards.
"That power you don't normally know how to use. I want it give it to me!" Xana lunges for Sanne.
"Have it!" Sanne fires another energy beam knocking Xana away again. "And again Xana! You can have all of it!" She fires another one. She is about to fire again when she blacks out.
"I think she's waking up." Sanne's eyes open and she sees Krieger, Skitz, Ark, Dante, Mira, and Barack standing over her. "Sanne, are you ok?"
"Krieger?" Sanne sits up. "Where am I?"
"Your room. You passed out or something and wouldn't wake up. We tried the Scanners and nothing happened. So we tried a return and now you're awake." Krieger has a sound to his voice that makes Sanne melt. It wasn't hatred or even annoyance. Krieger still cared for her and it came out in his voice.
"So, I, then now I'm back." Sanne hopes the other Sanne wasn't captured. She was just about to kill Xana when this group did a return. "Thanks guys." Sanne smiles and laughs a little. She didn't know if this world was better or worse than the other but she had found out that this Krieger still liked her. Sanne was torn emotionally but hearing Krieger's concern made her feel better.
A/N Put this up to tell you I updated my original. Please review.
