Sanne was bed ridden in the Kadic Academy Infirmary. No one knew what was wrong with her except Dante but he had promised not to tell anyone what had happened. That Sanne had a chance to save Skitz but didn't believe her until it was too late to launch a return.
Since then Sanne was a mess. She had been given blood tests, drug tests, hair follicle tests, and other tests to find out what was wrong with her but they could find nothing wrong with her.
Two attacks had been stopped by Dante but the others worried that one attack could stop Dante from getting to the activated Tower and Naia and Ark would win. What they would win the others weren't so sure. They weren't Xana who wanted to wipe out life in the Universe. They no longer were there to annoy Sanne. What they wanted was something they didn't understand. World domination? They so far had made no grand schemes to control the world. Death of the Warriors? But then what? The Lyoko Warriors wondered about it and what was wrong with Sanne.
Krieger would go to the Infirmary and sit with Sanne but Sanne would not tell him what was wrong. "Sanne please tell me." Krieger rubs her hand. "It isn't like cancer or anything they tested for that."
"No," Sanne shakes her head.
"I know that. What is it?"
"No," Sanne repeats this again and again.
The next day Krieger goes back to see Sanne. "Sanne I'm here." Krieger takes her hand in his. "I talked with Jim yesterday. They say if you don't get better then you'll be going home." Krieger kisses her hand. "I don't want to lose you Sanne. Please tell me what happened."
"I'm a bad person. I don't deserve to live."
"What? Sanne no, that's not true."
"Yes it is. I didn't trust her. I should have trusted her. She was my best friend and I turned on her." Sanne's voice is so soulless and monotone it sends chills down Krieger's spine.
"Trusted who? Skitz?" Sanne nods. "What do you mean though, trusted her? About what?"
"The drugs. She didn't do it Krieger. She was innocent."
"No she wasn't. You caught her the first time then Samantha caught her the second time."
"Samantha didn't catch her. Ark and Naia set her up. They told me so themselves. They affected the Super Computer so I couldn't launch returns to rescue Skitz." Tears form in Sanne's eyes. "I ruined Skitz's life. It's all my fault. If I had trusted my best friend," Sanne doesn't continue as tears flow from her eyes. Krieger gets up from the chair and hugs Sanne.
"It isn't your fault. They tricked you." Krieger pats her on the back while she cries.
Ark and Naia watch. "Think it is time Partner?"
"Are you sure you want your sister to be the one? After all Sanne has hurt you Ark."
"I'm sure." Ark and Naia start their attack.
Dante is in the Control Room worried sick about Sanne. She had been absolutely destroyed when she found out about Skitz. He had to call Krieger to come and get her because he couldn't take her to Kadic Academy and Sanne was in no mean to go on her own. Since then Naia and Ark had attacked twice and Sanne was unable to go. When the Super Scan goes off Dante shakes his head. "Damn it Naia why? Please stop doing this Naia." A black mist appears.
"Hurry Dante and call the others. Sanne has maybe ten minutes to live." Before Dante can respond Naia turns into a black mist and disappears.
"You can't kill her!" Dante gets his Jcell out and makes the calls.
Krieger answers his phone then puts it away. "Sanne, Naia is attacking. I'll be back right after ok?" Krieger kisses her on the forehead then on the lips lightly before leaving the Infirmary.
As the Lyoko Warriors run to the Factory Ark goes to America and finds the rehab where his sister is. When he finds her she is shooting Zeus into her arm. "She used to be clean. Poor thing broke so easily." Ark watches his sister react to the Zeus as he waits for the signal from Naia.
The Lyoko Warriors make it to the Factory. Only Krieger, Barack, and Mira are left to help Dante. No Ark, no Skitz, and no Sanne. It was getting hard and if they were to lose another member it would be over. They take the elevator down to the Scanner Room and go into the Scanners. "We're ready Dante."
"Transfer, Krieger, Transfer Barack, Transfer Mira, Scanner Krieger, Scanner Barack, Scanner Mira, and virtualization." They land on Lyoko in the Desert Sector. He sends the vehicles then himself. "We head east."
"Dante be careful," Krieger hands him his shield. "We can't lose you since Sanne is not here."
"I know." Dante gets on the Overwing with Mira while Barack gets on the Overboard and Krieger gets on the Overbike.
Ten minutes pass since the Tower was activated. Naia sends a signal to Ark who starts his end of the attack. "Skitz," She looks around. A black mist appears near her then forms into Ark. "How have you been?"
"Ark? Wow this is good stuff."
"I am real Skitz. I am here to offer you what you want."
"Sound just like you to." Skitz is being affected by the Zeus too much. Ark gets frustrated and sparks with energy. His energy surrounds Skitz then enters her. It cleans the Zeus from her system.
"Skitz it is time."
"You bastard! Do you know what I had to do to get that?"
"Yes. Skitz I've been watching you. I know about all the things you've done since coming here. All the things you have done to get drugs. I was surprised how quickly you started doing that."
"You bastard, you sent me here!"
"No Sanne sent you here. If she had launched a return, had trusted you, you would not be here. Now is your chance to get your revenge." Ark sparks with energy and an orb appears. Skitz can see Sanne lying in a hospital bed, alone. "There she is. Been sick lately but there she is. I will give you the chance to kill her. If you do we will rescue you from here and make you one of us."
"I can't trust you." Skitz backs away from Ark.
"Like Sanne didn't trust you? Skitz you are my sister. Blood is what binds us together. Please accept this deal so we can be together again. Together to have fun and play with the weaker beings."
"I, trust, trust, trust?" Skitz holds up three fingers as she says this. Ark smiles remembering when they would do this. On really important things where they had to trust each other. He holds out his hand and touches the fingers.
"Trust, trust, trust."
"Then get me out of here." Skitz curls into a ball and hugs her knees. "Please Ark, now."
"Not yet. You must kill Sanne first."
"How can I do that from here?"
"You will see." Ark starts charging with energy and adds it to the orb.
The Lyoko Warriors see the activated Tower and four Mega Tanks. "Frak, one for each of us." Krieger gets his sword out. "Except Dante needs to stay back." Krieger looks around for other monsters.
"I can still help but I need to stay away." Dante gets his wand out.
"I'll start things off, Stealth." Mira becomes invisible. She jumps off of the Overwing before the Mega Tanks can see she had been with the group.
"If we had Sanne this would be easy." Barack points his laser gun at a Mega Tank and fires. It hits the outer shell but the Mega Tank stays closed. The other three open up and fire.
"Watch out!" Krieger and the others dodge the Mega Tank blasts.
"Alakazam!" Dante fires but the Mega Tank closes up and the energy beam hits the outside.
The Mega Tanks fire again, and again, holding the Lyoko Warriors back. Naia watches until she feels energy near Kadic Academy. "Ark must be ready with Skitz, good." She turns into a black mist and goes to Kadic Academy.
Sanne is in the hospital bed when she sees an energy orb form in front of her. "No, leave me alone." Sanne tries to back away from the energy orb but was stuck in the bed.
"Don't worry Sanne I won't be the one to worry about." Naia smiles evilly. "And neither is Ark." A black mist appears coming out of the energy orb and forms into Ark. "But Skitz, yes, she I would be worried about." The energy orb shows Skitz. "What do you think Skitz?"
"How am I supposed to kill her?" Skitz can see Sanne through the energy orb. "Stare her to death?"
"No we will give you a way." Energy sparks near Skitz in rehab and forms into a large kitchen knife. "Stab her, cut her throat."
"Frak cutting her throat Sister cut her frakking head off!" Ark sparks with energy.
"How?" Skitz grabs the knife and looks at it.
"Reach through the portal." Skitz moves her hand towards the energy orb and is surprised when her arm enters it.
"My way out!" Skitz attempts to jump through the energy orb but is stopped by Ark.
"Not yet Skitz. Kill Sanne first then we will let you out."
"Skitz, no." Sanne tries to get out of the bed but Naia sparks with energy and forces Sanne down into the bed.
"You bitch! I told you I didn't do drugs any more! I was set up and you didn't trust me!"
"I know! I'm sorry Skitz, I'm sorry. Please forgive me."
"No! I'll frakking kill you! You sent me here! Do you know what I've done since I've been sent here!? I thought I was just going to be back at home but no they said I was a frakking junkie and that I would be put in this hell hole! It's all your fault you frakking bitch!" Skitz waves the knife around in front of Sanne. "I was clean before I came here but any one who comes here knows the only way to get away from this shit is Zeus, Jazz, anything!"
"I'm sorry!" Sanne starts to cry. "I'm so sorry, please Skitz, forgive me." Sanne cries even more.
"Never! You ruined my life! You could have saved me but you didn't! You used to be my best friend!"
"I know," Sanne puts her face in her hands as she cries. "I'm so sorry Skitz. I don't know what to do."
"Make up for it! Take your frakking punishment bitch!"
"I don't deserve to live. I turned on my best friend. I never should have told Jim, I should have believed you the second time. I, I," Sanne sobs as she gets close to the knife. "I'm sorry Skitz if, if," Sanne can't talk as she cries.
"This is it Skitz, your chance to kill her. Make her pay for what she did." Naia eggs Skitz on.
On Lyoko the Lyoko Warriors deal with the Mega Tanks. Krieger was close and circles around one beating his sword against its outer shell.
Dante fires energy orbs at a Mega Tank keeping it closed.
Barack fires laser beams at a Mega Tank keeping it closed.
Mira drops her stealth as she jumps on top of the last Mega Tank.
"Ark go and protect the Tower!" Ark turns into a black mist and disappears from the room. "Now Skitz here is your chance. Kill Sanne Belpois. Get your revenge for all that she has done to you!"
"I will." Skitz reaches out with the knife.
"Aaaa!" Naia pulls her arm back after Skitz cuts her deep with the knife. "You bitch what was that for!?"
"You tricked Sanne into sending me back! If it weren't for you and my dumbass brother I wouldn't be here!"
"If she had trusted you," Skitz swings at Naia again as she tries to climb through the portal.
"I'll kill you!" Skitz swings again.
"No, you won't." Naia disappears and the portal starts to shrink.
"Skitz!" Sanne yells at her and pushes her back in. "Please stay out of trouble I know a way to get you out of there and out of trouble!"
"Frak you Sanne!"
"No listen if you like don't do drugs and stuff I know I can get you out. Please listen to me."
"How?"
"I, I'll tell them the truth. That Ark and Naia framed you. But, but in a way that doesn't let them know about the other stuff."
"Well, Ark frakking cleaned my system. Bastard doesn't know what I had to do to get that Zeus."
"No Skitz don't do any more. I'll get you out please just…" The portal closes all the way. "Please stay clean." Sanne gets out of bed and looks for a phone.
Jim sees Sanne walking down the hall. "Sanne!" He runs over to her and hugs her. "Are you ok?"
"Jim, I'm sorry." Sanne hugs Jim. "I was so scared of him."
"Of who?"
"Ark. He, he got Skitz sent home then told me if I told anyone he'd get Krieger sent home to."
"What are you talking about Sanne? Ark got Skitz sent home? She was doing drugs again."
"No she wasn't." Sanne starts to cry. "She, she found out where Ark and Naia were staying and they told her not to tell anyone. I, I guess they didn't trust her and planted the stuff. I didn't believe Skitz until they came to me and told me not to tell anyone. I, I told them she hadn't told me but they didn't believe me. I don't know what was in the needle but like I've been so out of it lately and so scared to tell any one. I didn't want Krieger to get in trouble."
"It's ok Sanne." Jim reaches down for his Jcell. He had to call Odd and Sandra right away. "We'll make sure Skitz is ok and that Ark and uh, what ever her name is don't hurt Krieger ok?"
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure honey." Jim kisses Sanne on her forehead. "Go back to the infirmary while I get the nurse ok?"
"Um, ok Grandpa." Sanne hugs Jim again then walks back to the Infirmary hoping her plan would work.
On Lyoko Ark has attacked and the Lyoko Warriors were in trouble. They had been unable to destroy a Mega Tank and now had to deal with Ark. "Come on are you really this pathetic without Sanne?"
"Shut up Ark! You're the pathetic one! You joined Naia!" Mira wants to hurt him badly but knows she can't get close to him.
"I wanted power, revenge, and got both. What do you have Mira? Nothing. Why not surrender and join me? I'm sure I could handle two women at the same time." Ark laughs evilly.
"Like I would let you touch me again!" Mira throws a Kodachi at Ark but he uses his spear to knock it away.
"Alakazam!" Dante tries to attack Ark from behind but Ark is too fast and dodges the energy beam. It continues and hits a Mega Tank just as it is about to fire destroying it.
"You got lucky Dante but it is about to run out!" Ark cocks his arm back ready to throw his spear.
"Super Leap!" Krieger slashes Ark at the waist almost cutting him in half. "Super Leap!" Krieger jumps again at a Mega Tank that had opened since he had leapt away. He shoves his sword into the Eye destroying it.
"I have to admit that hurt." Ark sparks with energy and heals himself. "But I was not destroyed!" Ark attacks the others again.
Sanne gets back to the Infirmary feeling a lot better. Skitz had a chance to kill her but didn't do it. Skitz was a lot stronger then Sanne ever thought she was. And now Sanne had hopefully found a way to get Skitz free. She gets back in the bed when a black mist appears. "Didn't forget about me did you?"
"Naia, stay away." Sanne gets back out of the bed.
"No. If Skitz won't kill you then I think I will and frame her for it." Energy sparks and a knife appears. "Her finger prints are on it after all."
"But she's in America."
"For now." Naia lunges at Sanne but misses when Sanne ducks underneath her attack. Sanne kicks at Naia's hand and knocks the knife away.
"You're too slow Naia." Sanne goes to punch Naia but Naia grabs her hand then grabs Sanne by the throat.
"Who is the slow one?" Naia starts to choke Sanne. "Soon your face will turn blue and your eyes will roll into the back of your head. Your lungs will collapse without air in them and you will die. I think after I will make it look like a hanging. What do you think?" Sanne tries to reply but can't. "I'll take that as a yes." Naia lifts Sanne off the floor as she chokes her.
Sanne starts to lose consciousness. She feel herself slipping away as her lungs burn for air. Her eyes start to roll back into her head when something inside of her sparks. She doesn't notice it as her lungs burn more and more but when the spark grows Sanne can feel it. When the spark explodes inside of her Sanne can more then feel it she can see what it was.
"No!" Naia backs away as Sanne glows with energy. Her wings had appeared and knocked several things over. "This is impossible!"
"No it is a miracle. Skitz has found it in her heart to forgive me. Upon forgiving me I have forgiven myself." Sanne's voice is deeper and almost echoes as she speaks. "I have realized what true strength is. Krieger has physical strength but that is mere muscle. Dante has mental strength but that is just his brain. Skitz has true strength, inner strength. A strength that flows out of her and has shown me the way to reach my own."
"Shut up! This is a trick!" Naia lunges at Sanne but Sanne sparks with energy and knocks Naia back with it. Naia crashes into another bed and knocks it over. "I'll leave you, for now." Naia turns into a black mist and disappears from the room. Sanne's wings glow then disappear and she collapses to the floor as Jim and the nurse make it to the Infirmary.
On Lyoko the Lyoko Warriors have destroyed another Mega Tank leaving one left and Ark. "Alakazam!" Dante fires an energy beam at Ark but misses.
"You are such a poor shot I can't believe you've lasted as long as you have." Ark sparks with energy ready to attack.
"Come on," Barack was standing in front of the Mega Tank waiting for it to open and fire. He sets himself between the Mega Tank and Ark. "I won't shoot I promise." Barack puts his gun arm behind his back. The Mega Tank opens up and fires. Barack jumps out of the way and the Mega Tank blast hits Ark.
"You stupid monster!" Ark sparks with energy and the Mega Tank explodes. "Now where was I?"
"Here!" Ark turns just as Mira slashes at him with her Kodachi.
"Super Leap!" Krieger leaps at Ark and shoves his sword into his chest. "Now Dante!"
"On it!" Dante dives for the activated Tower.
"You can't win!" Ark sparks with energy and destroys Mira. He turns around to destroy Krieger when Barack hits him with a laser beam. Ark is distracted just long enough to let Dantemake it into the activated Tower.
"The Tower is deactivated." The screens fall around Dante. He uses the control panel to send the others back to Earth.
Two days later Sanne is back in classes. After class she is going towards the dorm building when her Jcell rings. "Hello?"
"Hi." Sanne almost drops her phone when she hears the voice.
"Skitz?"
"The one and only."
"Um, are you ok?"
"As ok as I can be. It took them a day to get me out but whatever you said worked. You're not as much of a bitch as I thought you were."
"I'm so sorry Skitz if I had any idea that," Skitz cuts Sanne off.
"Like me telling you it was Ark and Naia?! You know what those two can do and you didn't believe me!"
"I'm sorry!"
"Frak you! I just wanted to say thank you for getting me out."
"Um are you coming back?"
"No. I'll never go back to France again."
"Um, ok. Have you called the others."
"Only Krieger."
"Oh, um, ok."
"I find something interesting though."
"What?"
"He started dating you before I was sent back home."
"So?"
"We were still frakking until right before that. So he must have been frakking both of us."
"But, he broke up with you. He told me so."
"Who are you going to trust Sanne? Remember last time you didn't trust me? Krieger was frakking both of us until I got sent home." Skitz hangs up on Sanne before Sanne can say anything else. "Suck on that bitch."
