The Lyoko Warriors were shaken. After two more attacks and two more dealings with the Degameath they were getting desperate. Having a meeting in Sanne's dorm room they try to figure out what to do. "Maybe we can convince Skitz to come back? And of course her parents to let her come back." Krieger's suggestion is not taken too well.
"No way in hell Krieger. She hates me, and you." Sanne grabs his hand. "We don't need to make another enemy."
"She hates her brother and Naia more."
"How do you know?"
"She's told me." This surprises everyone.
"She talks to you?" Barack's tone of voice worries Mira.
"Yeah, sometimes."
"Well it doesn't matter the parents would never let her come back. After doing drugs and stuff." Mira grabs Barack's hand possessively.
"Zen has been there lately. Last time she fought Ark off alone since Mira was hurt." Barack squeezes Mira's hand. "Maybe we could have her join the group? Saves time on trying to dump her or doing a return just because she followed us. You know like last time."
"No way." The rest agree.
"Maybe we could um, call one of the parents?" Krieger thinks who. "Jim might not freak out. And I don't know about your mom Sanne but she might not. Or well, if we told Odd and Sandra then Skitz would come back."
"And your parents? Or Sanne's dad?" Sanne shakes her head.
"We don't need to pull them into this. I'll think of something, Dante will." Sanne sighs. "But maybe we need to make a plan. The Degameath is too dangerous for us to handle without one. The first time we fought it we tricked it into hurting itself. Maybe we can do it again."
"We got lucky that time. Lately Ark and Naia have been there and it seems to act smarter when they are both there."
"But they never sent another monster Mira. Maybe they can't or they just like watching the Degameath crush us." Dante sighs.
"Maybe Sanne. Or well, I don't know." Dante was tired. He had been getting little to no sleep trying to find a way to save Naia. Defeating the Degameath meant nothing if Naia wasn't saved.
"If we found a way to hit the Eye we could kill it. Maybe make my sword longer." Barack holds in a laugh, almost. "What?"
"Shouldn't it be Sanne asking for a longer sword from you?" The group laughs easing tensions.
Zen walks away from the dorm room door wondering what the group was talking about. She had fought Ark? She didn't remember that, or anything else the group talked about. "I'm going to figure this out." Zen gets some ideas as she walks out of the dorm building.
Ark and Naia were also getting some ideas. "How about we, well no that wouldn't work." Ark rubs his chin as he concentrates.
"I always like to shadow Sanne just to harass her. Maybe there is a way we can do that more?"
"Shadow? Hmm, brilliant idea Naia!" Naia is confused. "Trust me Naia this will be fun." Ark laughs evilly as he sets up his attack.
Sanne is walking through the woods with Krieger holding his hand. "Krieger I want to be able to see you."
"I know you do but until you are fixed you can't."
"Yes I can. If we go to the Factory we can go to Lyoko and I can see you there." Sanne hugs Krieger then feels something tub on her hair. She lets go when she feels something tug on her hair harder. "Krieger what are you doing?"
"Nothing why?"
"You didn't pull my hair?"
"No you hate that." Krieger feels something on his cheek that wasn't there. "There's something going on."
"Um check my Jpocket." Sanne fishes it out of her pocket and hands it to Krieger. "What does it say?"
"Nothing it's off."
"What? Dang it that's like the third time I've done that. I hate not being able to see what buttons I'm pushing."
"It's ok I'll turn it on." Krieger pushes the power button when the Jpocket is ripped out of his hands by nothing! "I think its Naia and Ark!"
"How can you-" Sanne is cut off when she feels like someone has just slammed into her.
"Sanne!" Krieger goes to help her up when he is attacked from behind. He turns around and sees… His Shadow! But it isn't copying his movements it is moving on its own. "Sanne I'd say run but you'd get hurt worse."
"What is it?"
"Our shadows." Krieger turns and sees Sanne's shadow getting ready to attack. "Watch out!" He pushes Sanne onto the ground making he shadow very small as the sunlight is blocked by the cover of a tree. "I got an idea." Krieger gets next to a tree with the sun on the other side. "No shadows and we can't be attacked." He sits down. "Sanne, very slowly crawl over here."
"Ok." Sanne crawls along the ground and finds Krieger. "What do we do? We can't hide like this. We have to get to the Factory."
"And we have to warn the others."
"Ok. Um, I can't find my phone, call the others." Sanne feels her pockets and no phone.
"I can't find mine either."
"The shadows probably got them." Sanne shakes her head. "This could get really bad."
"I know. Why you should stay here. You can't run on your own you need someone to lead you. If I get attacked or we get separated then you'll be, hurt." Krieger couldn't bring himself to say killed.
"I know but I can't just sit here. I'm needed on Lyoko."
"Dante can do it on his own. I know you want to be able to see again but I'm not going to lose you just so you could have the chance to see for a few minutes." Krieger hugs her then kisses her on the forehead. "Sit here and don't try anything. I don't want to be worrying about you ok?"
"I can make it!" Sanne starts to stand up when Krieger pulls her back down. "Let me go!"
"No way Sanne. Without help you're stuck here. If the others were here I'd take the chance but I don't think I can protect you alone." Krieger kisses her hard on the mouth then stands up. "We'll either launch a return or I'll come back here ok? Just wait for me."
"Ok Krieger." Sanne curls up and hugs her knees trying not to cry. When she was treated like normal it wasn't bad but in a situation like this it really hit her how being blind affected her. She tries to fight back tears but as she listens to Krieger run away her emotions flood her and she starts to cry.
Krieger runs into the cafeteria and sees Maria, Sora's old roommate. "Maria I need to borrow your Jcell."
"Why?"
"I can't find mine and am going to call it to see if I can hear it." Krieger holds his hand out.
"Well why don't you ask one of your friends?"
"I can't call them to ask them and you're the first person I saw." Krieger smiles as Maria reaches into her back pocket. "Had to think about that didn't you?" Maria laughs a little.
"Yeah. Like duh you can't ask them cause you don't have your phone." Maria hands her Jcell to Krieger. Krieger dials Barack's number.
"You know what, you know where." Krieger hangs it up. "Well, I'll keep looking." He hands the Jcell back to Maria and runs out of the cafeteria. "Thanks Maria!"
"You know what you know where?" Maria is confused and looks at the number Krieger dialed. She calls it. "Hello?"
"Hey, who is this?" The number came up as unknown on Barack's Jcell.
"That's what I want to know. Krieger said he couldn't find his Jcell and asked to borrow mine so he could call it but he called you instead."
"Well uh, if that was him tell him I have no idea what he meant by what he said." Barack was already with Mira and running for the sewer entrance in the woods. "And tell him I think he left his phone in my room."
"Well he's not here he ran off."
"Oh." Barack hangs up on Maria. "We better hurry."
"Why?"
"Krieger is supposed to be with Sanne but he was alone when he talked with Maria. Ark and Naia probably got her." They run out of the dorm building and go out into the sun…
"Aaaa!" Mira feels something attack her knees. She falls to the ground and grabs at her right knee when she sees movement going around Barack. "Watch out!" Barack turns and sees the shadow just before it lunges at him. He ducks and the shadow misses him.
"I guess this is the attack!" Barack kicks at the shadow but it melds in through his leg and grabs it. "Frak!" The shadow lifts Barack into the air then slams him into the ground.
"Barack!"
"Get away!" Another shadow jumps on Barack and starts to beat on him. "Get somewhere dark so there aren't any shadows!" Barack struggles to get to his feet but the shadows continue their assault.
"Haha! Look at her run." Ark watches Mira run then calls the shadows off of Barack. "Naia I'll handle the attack while you watch Degameath."
"Very well." Naia turns into a black mist and goes to the Desert Sector to wait for the others with Degameath.
Mira is almost to the sewer entrance in the woods when her shadow trips her. "No, no!" The shadow pins her to the ground as a black mist appears and forms into Ark. "Let me go!"
"No." Ark smiles evilly. "Are you ready to be hurt?"
"Leave me alone you bastard! You betrayed us!"
"I gained power and control. I am my own master. I answer to no one. I do not have to follow rules or schedules or curfews. And you know what the best part is? I can do anything I want when I want how I want." Ark sparks with energy. "And what I want to do is hurt you." Ark fires an energy bolt at Mira and hits her across the chest. "I want to hear you scream!" Ark hits her again but she clenches her teeth. Mira wasn't going to give in to Ark.
Krieger is running through the woods for the sewer entrance after being slowed down after he got into a clearing and his shadow attacked him. He sees Ark sparking with energy and hides behind a tree. "What is Ark doing?" Krieger watches as Ark prepares another energy bolt.
"Come on Mira scream!" Ark strikes her across the face with an energy face scarring her badly. Krieger leans down and grabs a rock.
"Leave her alone!" Krieger leaps out and hits Ark on the back of the head with the rock as hard as he could. Krieger sees blood come out of the wound but then it sparks and heals itself.
"That almost hurt." Ark spins so fast that Krieger can't dodge the backhand. Krieger tumbles to the ground seeing stars. "But I know that hurt." Ark smiles evilly as Krieger spits a tooth out.
"A little." Krieger lunges and tackles Ark. "Come on fight me like a man not a weakling that has to cheat!" Krieger punches Ark hard.
"I always lost back then didn't I?" Ark shocks Krieger who falls off of him. Ark floats up to his feet. "Now where was I Mira?" Ark turns around and sees Mira climbing into the sewers. "Get back here!" Ark flies at her and knocks her from the ladder. Mira falls to the bottom of the ladder hitting the back of her head hard. Ark floats down ready to strike.
Sanne is still crying when someone sees her, Zen. "Sanne?" Sanne's head moves up but of course she doesn't see Zen. "What are you doing alone?"
"Zen?"
"Yeah Sanne. What happened? Why did they leave you alone?" Zen goes over to Sanne.
"Emergency. Um, Zen, can you help me?"
"Of course. I'll get you back to the dorm building ok?"
"No I want to go somewhere else. I can't lead you there but I can give you the address and you can figure it out ok?"
"Um, ok." Sanne pulls her Jpocket out and gives Zen the address.
"Just use the Map Search option." Zen does and finds the way, street level, to the Factory.
"What is this?"
"Something important."
"Does it have to do with Ark and Naia?" Sanne's face shows surprise. "I've heard you and your friends talking about it. And you talk about it in your sleep sometimes."
"Yes, yes it does." Another return will be needed. "We have to hurry. And try to stay in dark areas, no shadows."
"Why?"
"If you find out it will be too late." Sanne grabs Zen's hand and the two take off for the Factory.
Krieger wakes up and hears Mira screaming. He looks and sees the sewer cover was off and crawls over. He looks down and sees Ark at the bottom. "Geronimo!" Krieger drops onto Ark's back knocking him down. "Get out of here Mira!" Mira starts to crawl away.
"Like you can stop me?" Ark starts to spark with energy but Krieger, learning from last time, jumps off. Ark floats to his feet. "Getting smarter aren't you Krieger? But are you smart enough to surrender and join me?"
"I'd never join you." Krieger gets in a fighting stance.
"Then prepare to lose."
"Will you fight me fairly? Or will you cheat?"
"I'll win." Ark sparks with energy ready to attack Krieger.
Barack is curled into a ball broken and bloody when Jim sees him. "What happened? Who did this to you, Barack?" Jim recognizes him once he gets close. "Are you ok? Where are the others?"
"They, they got away." Barack coughs and a little blood comes out. "I, my ribs, they might be broken."
"Who did this to you?"
"Ark." Barack doesn't worry about saying it. He knew a return had to be done and he didn't want to waste time lying. "Please, call for help."
"Yeah, yeah doing that now." Jim gets his Jcell out and calls for an ambulance and worries about the others. Especially Sanne who was in more danger than the others since she was blind and couldn't go off on her own.
Mira gets away farther into the sewers. She holds her stomach and face feeling blood coming out of the wounds Ark made. She doesn't worry about Krieger. Krieger was strong and could handle himself. She had to get to the Factory and get to Lyoko so she could stop the attack and save Barack.
Sanne is following Zen hoping she'd go a little faster but knew Zen was doing her best. She had never been to the Factory, that she could remember.
Naia waits on Lyoko getting bored. "It is taking them too long to get here. Maybe I should call off the attack and just let Degameath crush them here. By now they know a return is needed and that's all we're really after. Well, that and Sanne…" Naia sparks with energy then turns into a black mist and goes to Earth to see where everyone was.
Ark is pummeling Krieger when Naia appears. "Ark, that's enough!" He turns and sees her.
"I'm proving a point! Leave me alone and wait for the others to get to Lyoko. I'm not done punishing Krieger."
"He won't make it to Lyoko in the shape he is in. Let him go we need to make preparations on Lyoko."
"Very well." Ark stands over the broken and bloodied Krieger. "I guess he's learned his lesson." Ark turns into a black mist as does Naia and they go back to the Factory and to Lyoko.
Zen sees the bridge, the river, and the Factory. "This is it?"
"I don't know where are we?"
"At the river in front of an old factory."
"Then we made it. Get me to the entrance ok?"
"Went this far might as well continue." Zen leads Sanne to the entrance and sees the ropes. She grabs one and hands it to Sanne. Sanne slides down slowly while Zen swings down. "Now where?"
"There is an elevator. We have to take that down ok?"
"Down where?"
"You will see." Zen leads Sanne over to the elevator. "Hit the button once." Zen does and soon the doors close and the elevator goes down to the Control Room. "Dante are you here?"
"Of course I am. Hello Zen."
"Hey, how do you know my name?" Zen looks around the room amazed. "And what is all of this?"
"We'll tell you later. Sanne where are the others?"
"They aren't here yet?"
"No." This scares Sanne. If she was the first one here did that mean she would be the only one to make it? Had Ark and Naia gotten the others already? And if they had would the others last long enough for her and Dante to get to the activated Tower or would they be lost? That's if the two could even make it to the activated Tower. "I'll send you now."
"Send her where?"
"To there." Dante points at the holomap. Sanne goes over to the elevator and feels for the button. She presses it and takes it down to the Scanner Room. When she gets out she slowly walks forward until she feels the middle Scanner. "Transfer Sanne, Scanner Sanne, and virtualization." She lands in the Desert Sector. "Are you able to see Sanne?"
"Like always." Sanne would cry if she were on Earth. To be in perpetual darkness then to be able to see was amazing. "We can wait a few more minutes for the others. If they don't show up then send the vehicles and yourself." Sanne looks around taking in the sight of the Desert Sector.
Mira makes it to the end of the sewer passage and slowly climbs up the ladder. She can feel her wounds ache and bleed. She pushes the cover out of the way and climbs out. She nearly passes out from the effort but keeps going. She had to make it to the Factory.
Dante is looking through the cameras and sees Mira. "Mira made it but she doesn't look in good shape."
"Mira? She's a part of, whatever this is?" Zen looks at the screen and sees Mira. "What the frak happened to her?"
"Ark. Or Naia." Dante hears the elevator run and soon it comes back down and goes straight to the Scanner Room. "Transfer Mira, Scanner Mira, and virtualization." She lands next to Sanne.
"Mira is Barack coming?" She shakes her head. "Did you see Krieger?" Mira nods.
"He's fighting Ark. I don't know how long he will last."
"Then it's just us three. Dante send the vehicles and get here."
"We have an option."
"No!" Sanne yells so loud even Zen can hear it.
"No what?"
"Never mind Zen. Just sit there and wait ok? We'll tell you what everything is as soon as we get back."
"Well, I want to come."
"You can't. Not yet anyways. It's a special process that takes hours and we don't have that kind of time." Dante sends the vehicles then sets up the auto transfer. When he lands he sees Sanne is already on the Overbike while Mira is on the Overboard. "We have to head east."
"And hope they don't send Degameath." The three take off for the activated Tower.
Naia and Ark see them and wait. Like they had before Degameath is camouflaged.
The three hurry and see the activated Tower once they get between two mountains. "We have to be careful." Mira gets her Kodachi out.
"More than careful." Dante gets his wand out.
"Or we could make a kamikaze dive for the activated Tower." Sanne revs the engine of the Overbike and goes a little faster.
"Sanne don't do it!" Dante and Mira try to keep up but Sanne pulls away with the faster vehicle.
"Now!" Ark and Naia laugh as Degameath reveals himself.
"That wasn't a mountain!" Mira immediately goes into Stealth and leaps off of the Overboard as Degameath swings a huge rocky fist and destroys it.
"Alakazam!" An energy beam comes out and hits Degameath across the chest hitting the Eye but does nothing. "Sanne keep going!" Dante fires energy orbs at Degameath hoping to distract it.
"Working on that." Sanne can see the activated Tower, see herself deactivating it, but would be stopped.
"Got you now!" Naia sends a massive energy bolt at Sanne. Sanne sees it just in time and dodges it but loses control of the Overbike and crashes.
"Scattershot!" Sanne fires several beams but Naia's energy shield blocks them. "Get away Naia!"
"Or else?"
"Or else I'll kill you!" Sanne sparks with energy as she concentrates on it. All she had to do was think of every moment on Earth since she'd been blinded to have her energy boil over.
"You can't kill me!" Naia lunges at Sanne.
"Bubble!" The bubble comes up and Naia slams into it. Sanne lowers it and attacks Naia herself.
"We can't waste time with this." Dante turns and fires an energy orb at Naia but misses.
"Watch out!" Mira's warning is too little too late and Degameath crushes Dante sending him back to Earth.
"Damn it!" Dante falls out of the Scanner and nearly lands on Zen.
"Where did you go?"
"Lyoko."
"What's that? Where is it?"
"Frak." Dante looks at Zen. He knows Sanne wouldn't make it. With just Mira to help Sanne would either lose to Naia or be crushed by Degameath. "Do you want to find out?"
"Well duh I wouldn't be asking if I didn't want to know."
"Get in the Scanner and wait." Dante goes over to the ladder as Zen gets in the middle Scanner. Dante brings up a new transfer card. "Transfer Zen, Scanner Zen, and virtualization." She lands on Lyoko. "I'm sending the Overbike. Get on and go as fast as you can ok?"
"Which way?" Zen looks around stunned by what she sees.
"East." Dante sends the Overbike and Zen gets on it.
"Um, which way is east here?"
"Go away from the bright light in the middle."
"Ok." Zen takes off wondering just what, where, she was.
Mira is climbing up the arm of Degameath still cloaked. She knew it wouldn't do anything but she had to at least try. When she gets on the shoulder she jumps and slams her Kodachi into the forehead of Degameath. Its huge fist comes up and punches her, and itself, destroying her and knocking itself to the ground.
"Whoa!" Zen can feel the ground shake.
Mira comes out of the Scanner hurting everywhere. "Dante, can you send me back yet?"
"No. Your cool down time isn't over for another twenty minutes."
"Then what do we do?"
"I already did it." Mira doesn't like how he says this.
"Did what?"
"I sent Zen."
Zen sees the Degameath starting to get back up. "Holy frakking frak of a frakkers frak."
"I think that gives a clear concept of the use of that word." Dante looks at Zen's profile card. She has stripes across her face like that of a tiger but her body was covered in spots like a Leopard. She didn't seem to have an outfit but more of a new body that didn't require one. She looked sleek, agile, and deadly like the large cats now only found on the moon preserve or J INCs Prehistoric Park. "What weapon do you have?" Zen looks at herself.
"I don't know. I don't see any." Zen looks at her left hand. "I have like, paws or something." Claws come out. She holds her hand out and points one of her fingers at the Degameath. "There is like a giant rock monster in front of me. Do I have to fight it or what?"
"No. You can't beat it but you can distract it."
"Why am I distracting it?"
"So Sanne can get away from Naia and deactivate the Tower." Dante looks at Sanne's profile card and sees she has lost health but was still able to fight.
"You can't kill me Sanne you never will!" Naia sparks with energy.
"I'll save you or kill you either way you will lose!" Sanne sparks with energy. Her wings explode from her back and push her off of the ground. Sanne flies up into the air away from Naia.
"Don't just stand there Ark do something!"
"With pleasure." Ark gets spear out and is ready to attack when he hears the sound of the Overbike. "Someone else made it. I figured Barack and Krieger would be too injured to make it." Ark looks and is surprised to see the golden orange colored person on the Overbike. "This is new."
"This isn't!" Ark looks up and sees Sanne diving at him. Ark brings his spear up but Sanne knocks it away.
"Little bitch!" Ark sparks with energy but Sanne fires an energy beam hitting him in the face and knocking him out of the sky.
"Whoa." Zen sees Sanne fighting someone and is amazed. "She's an angel." Zen is so distracted she doesn't see the Degameath turn and go to attack her.
"Zen watch out!" Dante's warning was in time and Zen drives the Overbike away from Degameath's giant hand.
"Holy frak he's huge." Zen stops the Overbike and looks up at the towering Degameath. "How do I distract him?"
"Attack him."
"I don't have any weapons!" Zen drives away and Degameath follows.
"That works too." Dante looks at the cool down time for Mira and himself. There was no way Sanne could last as long as they had. The only hope she had was that Zen would find a way back and be able to fight.
Sanne sparks with energy and attacks Ark. "Let me go to the Tower and deactivate it! I'll let you go!"
"You're losing power aren't you? We'll win!"
"No you won't!" Sanne fires an energy beam hitting Ark hard in the chest. He falls from the sky but Naia flies up from behind with Ark's spear and attacks Sanne who fights back.
Zen turns around and sees Degameath is right behind her. "I can't just drive away that Dan guy sent me here to fight."
"Dante, my name is Dante."
"Whatever." Zen turns the Overbike around and drives straight at Degameath. It raises its right arm and is ready to crush Zen but Zen drives between his legs. "Sanne!" Zen sees Sanne is losing her fight against Naia.
"Is that Zen? I can't really tell she looks so different doesn't she?" Sanne looks and is distracted, just like Naia wanted. Naia brings up Ark's spear and is ready to pierce Sanne with it.
"No!" Zen reaches out with her right arm but knows it is fruitless. As far away as she was… "Whoa!" Her arm stretches out to an extreme length and hits Naia from over twenty meters away! Her arm snakes back into place as Sanne attacks Naia. "That was so cool!"
"That was different but won't help you!" Ark fires an energy bolt at Zen. Zen leaps off of the Overbike which is destroyed.
"Let's see what else I can do!" Zen runs at Ark, dodging energy bolt after energy bolt. Zen is far more agile and quick than a normal person or even an average Lyoko Warrior. She does flips, cartwheels, somersaults dodging Ark's attacks. "Ha!" Zen whips her right arm at Ark when she gets closer and it stretches out punching Ark in the face.
"Little punk!" Ark flies at Zen who dodges his tackle, does a back flip, then launches herself up into the air.
"Ha!" Zen swings around and throws herself at Naia.
"How did you get here!?" Sanne isn't sure if she should be mad at Zen or Dante. Zen wasn't to be in the group yet she had been sent.
"Dante sent me to help you!" Zen punches Naia while Naia struggles to get her off of her. Sanne should be going to the activated Tower but is too distracted by Zen being on Lyoko.
"I didn't need any help!"
"Oh yeah?" Sanne turns and sees Ark standing on Degameath's shoulder. Sanne looks up and sees Degameath's hand coming at her.
"Aaaa!" Sanne is hit and slammed into the ground. Her wings explode and feathers scatter over the ground but she isn't destroyed.
"Frak!" Zen is knocked off by Naia and falls towards the ground. She twists in the air and throws her left arm out. It stretches and grabs Naia by the ankle. As her arm retracts Zen readies her attack.
"Get off of me you…" Naia is punched hard in the face.
"Ha!" Zen kicks out and her leg stretches enough to hit Naia again.
"Bubble!" Sanne puts it up as Degameath goes to step on her.
"Frak I have to help her!" Zen falls towards the ground again but decides to use the same trick. She throws her left arm out, grabs Degameath by the forehead, then retracts it. Zen slams her right fist into Degameath's forehead. Degameath stumbles backwards but isn't destroyed.
"Have to get to the Tower." Sanne scrambles and runs for the activated Tower. Naia flies down ready to tackle her.
"Alakazam!" An energy beam comes out and hits Naia in the back.
"The cavalry has arrived!" Mira comes in on the Overboard and attacks Ark. Zen had distracted and fought Naia, Ark, and Degameath long enough for the cool down time to run out.
Sanne runs into the activated Tower and floats up to the second platform. She goes over to the control panel and puts her hand on it. Soon the screens fall around her. "The Tower is deactivated." She brings up the return program. "Return to the past now." The white bubble come up and reverses time.
The group is having a meeting in Sanne's room, with Zen. "You can't tell anyone about this Zen. We find out you told anyone we, well, we have ways to blank your memory."
"I won't tell anyone." Sanne doesn't like how nonchalant Zen sounds when she says this.
"You can't tell anyone! You do and we'll blank your memory! Not just about Lyoko but completely! You'll be worse then a baby you won't be able to brush your teeth because you won't even know what a tooth is! You can't tell any of your friends about this!"
"I don't have any friends to tell this about so stop yelling at me!" Sanne calms down.
"Sorry Zen but, you, this is big." Sanne sighs. "I'm blind because of what they've done. Another student, Sora, is dead because of this. Skitz got sent home because of this. This is a big, big, major deal."
"Why don't you tell your parents?"
"We released Xana and it's our responsibility to end this. They fought Xana for years and we aren't ruining their lives."
"But Xana is dead right? It's just Ark and uh, Nina?"
"Naia."
"So why not call the parents to fight them?"
"They're just as bad. Well, no, because Xana wanted to take over the world those two… We don't know." Krieger looks at Sanne. "Naia hates Sanne and Ark does to but they don't focus on her as much as they used to."
"Why do they hate Sanne?"
"Long story." Barack looks at the clock. "It's time for dinner. Zen will you sit with us? We can't talk about this in the cafeteria but it would be um good for you to sit with us."
"I guess I could. Um, one question."
"What?"
"When will they attack?"
"When they do. We have no idea when they will we just have to be ready for when they do." Sanne gets her Jpocket out. "I have a way of detecting attacks. Once they start though we have to get to the Factory as soon as possible. Don't worry about cutting classes because a return will reverse that."
"Ok." Zen and the others go to the cafeteria. Zen looks around wondering if Ark and Naia would attack soon.
A/N Wrote E7 of my new series, a couple very emotional points in it made me want to cry. And in E130 of CX also emotional points. Anyways, when I said write me a message I meant write me a message, lol. That way I can have your email address and stuff.
