Sanne was planning something now that she was back in the other world. She and the others had killed Xana once before and would, could, do it again. She was trying to remember how they activated so many Towers and how they got to the Core so easily as she explains the plan to Dante. "So if we do that we can kill Xana! It will work I'm telling you!"
"How do you know? We know he wants to posses you and if we attack he might do it."
"He won't I'm too strong and he's weak." Sanne smiles. "Bet you say, you stay on Earth if this works instead of staying on Lyoko and turning off the Super Computer." Dante shakes his head.
"I'm not staying on Earth."
"Why not Dante? I'll make sure to be nice to you and take you out and show you Earth. Chocolate, dreaming, soda, TV and movies, and maybe we might be able to get you a girlfriend and stuff."
"Why the hell would I want that?"
"If you knew what it meant you would. Maybe show you a reason why later." Sanne smiles thinking about the new life she would have here. She didn't know how to go back to the other world and if she did what if she had been killed? She'd be going back to nothing. Here she could start over and if she killed Xana life here would be great. She was still uncomfortable with Skitz and the relationship they had but maybe she could work that out and maybe something with Dante. She thought maybe Krieger but he was still with Maria and they seemed to be really close. But here, now, she could start over. "What do you think?"
"I don't care."
"You will I'm sure. But right now I need to be getting back to Kadic Academy. See you later Dante." Sanne leaves the Control Room and goes back to Kadic Academy before curfew.
Xana is watching and decides he wasn't going to give Sanne a chance to attack and kill him.
Sanne lies down in bed after showering when Skitz comes in. "Ooo you look good." Skitz smiles as Sanne pulls the sheet over herself. She was in her sleep shirt and nothing else.
"Um, thanks."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
"Don't say that Sanne. I know something is wrong. Past couple of days you've been acting different."
"Um, that time of the month."
"No it isn't Sanne. You just had it like last week. Why are you lying to me babe?" Skitz sits down on Sanne's bed and puts a hand on hers. "Why are you so different?"
"Its complicated Skitz you wouldn't understand."
"Then help me understand." Skitz leans down to kiss Sanne but Sanne pulls away. "Is it Dante?"
"Is what Dante?"
"Are you seeing him, if you are just tell me. I'll be mad but I'll understand. You two are together all the time and you two can talk about stuff we can't and hell we can't even hold hands in public and stuff."
"No it's not Dante, or you, it's me. I don't want to tell you because there is nothing you can do and I don't want to worry you." Sanne hugs Skitz. "Don't worry ok Skitz?"
"I will because I love you honey." Skitz kisses Sanne on the forehead. "Goodnight Sanne."
"Goodnight Skitz." Sanne feels the flush of warmth she gets when Skitz smiles at her. The longer she was there the more like this world's Sanne she became. She wasn't sure if it could go so long that she would forget her world or not. If she did, well, she needed to attack and kill Xana as soon as possible.
Xana waits for Sanne to fall asleep before starting his attack.
Dante feels pulsations. "He's attacking. If they are sleeping they may not know until it is too late." Dante goes to the second level of the Tower and uses the control panel to send himself to Earth.
Sanne tosses and turns in her sleep. A nightmare from the world she knew had followed her to the other world. A black mist forms in the air above her then forms into a monster. Not a Xana monster but one from Sanne's dreams. It reaches down and touches her face lightly with its cold scaly skin. It was a mix of a dragon and a human. Tall, long arms and legs, and a vicious fire breath it could use at anytime. But now was not the time as Xana waits for the moment to strike.
Skitz hears Sanne whimpering and wakes up. "Aaaa!" The monster turns and roars at Skitz waking Sanne up.
"Aaaa!" Sanne pulls the covers over her head. "Go away!"
"You are to come with me little girl." The monster tears through the bed sheet and grabs Sanne.
"Let her go!" Skitz lunges at the monster only to be knocked back by a powerful blow from its left arm.
"Damn it let me go!" Sanne punches the monster but its hard scales protect it. "Damn it let me go Xana!"
"Why should I do that future host?" The monster jumps through the window with Sanne and lands on the ground below. It runs off as the door to the dorm room is kicked open.
"What's going on in here!?" Jim sees the smashed window, the torn up bed, and Skitz knocked out on the floor. "Sanne!" Jim screams her name and looks out the window to see something running into the woods. It is too dark to see what it was though but he is sure it has his granddaughter.
Krieger wakes up when his phone rings. "What?"
"Sanne's been kidnapped." A hurt and bruised Skitz whispers. "Xana sent a monster. We need to get to the Factory now."
"I'll, we'll be there." Krieger hangs up and wakes Ark up.
Skitz is on her way when her phone rings. "Hello?"
"Xana is attacking."
"You're a little late on that!"
"I'm sorry my phone was not where I left it so I could not call you earlier. What has he done?" Dante's curt talking makes Skitz mad.
"He kidnapped Sanne you ass! If you had called us earlier we might have gotten away!"
"Well he won't kill her he wants her for his host. So why worry? Just get here so we can deactivate the Tower."
"And what if he possesses her?"
"I doubt that. Her powers will protect her." Dante hangs up on Skitz tired of talking to her.
Sanne is dropped on the ground in the woods as a black mist forms into Xana. "Hello Sanne."
"Leave me alone Xana!" Sanne doesn't get up as she backs away. "You can't posses me on Earth and on Lyoko I'll fight you!"
"I'll make you submit then." Xana snaps his fingers and the monster attacks Sanne with its claws.
"Aaaa!"
Skitz, Ark, and Krieger are on their way through the sewers. "A monster? Like a Krabe?"
"No Ark like a monster monster. Who knows what Xana is having it do to her we have to hurry!" Skitz kicks again going faster on the skateboard with the two boys following her.
"Well then Sanne are you ready?"
"Never Xana." Sanne struggles to ignore the pain. The monster has used its claws on her back cutting deep into her. It reaches down and slashes down her back past her butt and down her legs drawing blood.
"Now?"
"Never!"
Skitz and the others make it to the Factory and hurry to the Control Room. "Dante where are we going?"
"Mountain Sector, hurry." The three get on the elevator and take it down to the Scanner Room and get in the Scanners. "Transfer Skitz, Transfer Ark, Transfer Krieger, Scanner Skitz, Scanner Ark, Scanner Krieger, and virtualization." They land in the Mountain Sector. Dante sends the vehicles then uses the auto transfer to send himself. After getting on the Overwing he takes off to the south.
"They made it to Lyoko. But what will they find there? Sanne I can't keep doing this or you will die. We'll go to Lyoko and maybe you will submit to keep your friends safe." Xana turns Sanne, the monster, and himself into black mists and they disappear to Lyoko.
Ark runs next to Krieger on the Overbike. Skitz is on the Overboard worried about Sanne. Dante flies overhead on the Overwing looking out for monsters.
Xana, his monster, and Sanne form in front of the activated Tower. Before Sanne can act Xana creates an energy dome keeping Sanne in place. "We will wait for the others to get here."
The Lyoko Warriors fly towards the activated Tower when a Dragon appears behind them. "Dante watch out!" Skitz creates her spear.
"I see it." Dante dodges lasers as Skitz flies up to attack it.
"Damn it people I can't fly you're going to have to take care of it. I'll go forward and check out what is ahead of us." Ark keeps running as Krieger and Skitz fight the Dragon.
"Here comes one of your little friends now." Xana smiles and sparks with energy as the blur that was Ark appears. "Hello Ark."
"Xana let Sanne go!"
"No. I have her here to watch me torture her friends."
"We're on Lyoko the most you can do is send us back." Ark gets ready to attack when Xana snaps his fingers and energy shoots out of the ground and wraps around Ark's feet.
"Oh really Ark? Then tell me does this hurt?" Xana sends energy into Ark.
"Aaaa!"
"I'll take that as a yes."
"Leave him alone Xana!"
"I will when you submit to me." Xana continues to torture Ark.
Skitz dodges lasers trying to distract the Dragon as Krieger flies higher and higher into the air on the Overbike. "Come on you couldn't hit the broadside of a house!" Skitz blocks a laser then dodges another.
Krieger looks down and waits for the right moment. He gets his Zanbouto out in anticipation.
"Come on Dragon you can't touch this." Skitz goes around and around the Dragon keeping it in one place.
"Now!" Krieger jumps off of the Overbike and falls towards the Dragon. When the Dragon realizes Krieger is coming it is too late. Krieger slices through the Dragon destroying it before landing on the Overboard.
"Good job Krieger."
"Nice catch. Take me back up to the Overbike if you don't mind." Skitz flies Krieger up and he gets on the Overbike before following Skitz and Dante towards the activated Tower.
"Please Xana stop hurting him."
"Not until you submit to me Sanne." Xana looks over at the created monster. "When the others come attack Dante please?"
"Yes Xana." The monster runs and hides behind some rocks.
Dante, Krieger, and Skitz make it to the activated Tower and see Ark being tortured by Xana. "Let my brother go you bastard!" Skitz gets her spear out ready to attack.
"I'll let him go when Sanne decides to submit to me."
"She'd never do that." Krieger swings his Zanbouto and points it at Xana. "Let Ark go!"
"Very well," Xana waves his hand and destroys Ark. "Who is next?"
"Leave them alone Xana!" Sanne feels her energy rising. She was getting mad and was going to show Xana that he wouldn't like her when she was angry. "You've had your fun now stop this!"
"I'll stop when you are my host. Now, Dante, if you please go back to Earth." Xana smiles evilly as Dante gets closer and is distracted.
"Shut up Xana I hate you!"
"I know you do but that's alright. Teens like to rebel against their parents sometimes and I understand that."
"He's not your son you bastard!" Sanne punches against the energy shield. "He's nothing like you!"
"You're right. He is weak, stupid, and easily killed." The monster leaps out from behind the rock and knocks Dante off of the Overwing.
"Dante!" Skitz throws her spear at the monster but misses. Dante scrambles to get away but the monster pounces on him and attacks.
"Aaaa!" Dante is torn apart before devirtualizing back to Earth.
"Frak." Krieger dives at the monster on the Overbike swinging his sword high over his head. The monster reaches up and grabs the sword before it can hit it. Krieger jumps off of the Overbike and it crashes into the monster. The monster lets go of Krieger's sword. "How did you like that?"
"Not at all." The monster attacks Krieger. Krieger lifts his sword and blocks the monster and knocks it away.
"Let her go Xana!" Skitz has grabbed her spear and threatens Xana with it. "Now!"
"Or what will you do? Attack me with that stick? Go ahead and see how long you last little girl."
"I'll show you!" Skitz dives at Xana on the Overboard with her spear cradled under her arm like a Knight in a joust. When she gets close Xana snaps his fingers and an energy shield forms blocking Skitz's spear and knocking her to the ground. "Come on and fight me!"
"I think not." Xana sends an energy bolt at Skitz hitting and hurting her.
"Leave her alone now Xana!" Sanne sparks with more energy. "Stop it right now or I will make you pay!" Sanne can feel the rush of emotions fill her. This worlds Sanne loved Skitz and seeing her being hurt was giving Sanne more energy.
"You must submit to me if you want it to stop."
"Submit this!" Sanne punches against the energy shield containing her and her hand pushes through it. "You son of a bitch!" She punches it with her other hand and it goes through. She sparks with more energy and she rips the energy shield apart. "Now leave her alone!"
"Very well." Xana destroys Skitz sending her back to Earth. "You, finish her off." The monster turns into a black mist and goes to Earth.
Skitz falls out of the Scanner and sees her brother nursing his wounds. "Are you ok Ark?"
"I will be. Nothing major just a few burns and stuff sis. How about," He stops when a black mist appears behind Skitz. "Look out!" Skitz turns around just in time to be punched in the face. She skids across the floor stopping at Ark's feet.
"She is still breathing. I must give her credit I did think that would kill her." The monster is ready to attack again when Ark lunges at him ignoring his own safety. The monster knocks him away into a Scanner knocking him out.
Sanne's wings explode from her back as her energy comes to full power. "I will kill you Xana!"
"Just like my monster is killing Skitz? What do you choose Sanne? Kill me and lose Skitz or save Skitz and let me go?"
"Frak you!" Sanne fires an energy beam from her mouth and hits Xana. "I'll, I, frak you!" Sanne flies into the Tower as Xana slips away.
"No, please, stop." Skitz is lifted into the air by her right ankle.
"Leave her alone!" Dante jumps from the ladder and lands on the monsters back. It drops Skitz but attacks Dante.
"Foolish boy." The monster grabs Dante by his skull, its large hand holding it like a basketball, and slams it into the floor of the Scanner Room knocking Dante out. "Now for you little girl." The monster flexes its clawed fingers ready to cut into Skitz's flesh.
"The Tower is deactivated." The screens fall around Sanne. "I don't know what that monster did. She could be dead already, I, return to the past now!" The white bubble comes up reversing time.
Sanne finds herself back in the dorm room with Skitz. "Skitz!" Sanne hugs her and feels this world Sanne's emotion come. "I, I'm so glad you're ok Skitz." Sanne doesn't control herself, she can't control herself, and she kisses Skitz. A second later the door opens as Ark and Krieger come to see if Skitz was ok and see the two kissing deeply and lovingly.
"Whoa!" Ark and Krieger are stunned as the two girls pull apart.
"Um, uh, we, I," Both stammer and look away from the two boys.
"You two were just, uh, wow." Ark blushes a little as he reacts to the sight of the two girls kissing. "I mean um, I don't know what is going on but, um, yeah."
"Oh frak it." Skitz grabs Sanne and kisses her again. "There, happy now?" Krieger shakes his head.
"I don't know. I mean, are you two…" Krieger motions his hands strangely to indicate an action.
"No we aren't doing that we're doing something different Krieger. I don't know if you know this but we don't have the same parts and can't do that." Skitz laughs a little trying to break the tension.
"Um, I, we're just going to go away now." Krieger and Ark walk away closing the door behind them.
"Um, I'm sorry Skitz."
"Don't be they had to find out sooner or later right?"
"I know but um that wasn't like the way I would have done it."
"Neither would I but what's done is done." Skitz hugs Sanne. "I love you babe." She kisses Sanne on the forehead.
"I love you to Skitz." Sanne kisses Skitz on the mouth.
