Sanne is desperate for a win. She was in a world where Xana and the Super Computer had not been found. She didn't know what to do. Her and Krieger were really good friends and nothing more. Skitz and Ark were still their wild and crazy selves. School was school and life was life. Xana was not trying to kill them. Mira, Barack, Zen, were not there.
Sanne is in her room trying to work on homework but was distracted. "I have to destroy Xana. I was sent here to destroy him."
"What?" Sanne turns around and sees Skitz coming in.
"Um, nothing Skitz. Homework is frying my brain." Sanne closes her history book. "What's up?"
"Tom wants to go out but the teachers have been psycho about leaving the campus after hours."
"Just take the sewers."
"What?" Sanne sighs. This group didn't know about them except through stories.
"Take the sewers. There's a couple ways in on campus." Sanne smiles. "I've used them already."
"With Krieger?" Skitz smirks. "Or are you two still just really good friends?" Sanne rolls her eyes.
"Skitz I know you're crazy about boys but me? I actually only have one in mind." Sanne smirks back.
"Is there something you haven't told me about? Like you sneaking out and meeting a boy?" Sanne shakes her head.
"No. Skitz I know you want me and Krieger together but what about you? You've had how many boyfriends since coming here? Why not pick one and settle down?" Skitz shrugs her shoulders.
"Because you got the best one on campus." Skitz laughs.
"You can find a pretty good one I'm sure. But stay away from Krieger. He doesn't want to be more then friends but I think I can convince him differently." Skitz and Sanne laugh.
Sanne is in the sewers going towards the Factory. "I have to do it but how? I can't know if I have my powers or not until I go to Lyoko. But if I turn the Super Computer on I might release Xana, or Dante. Even without putting in the password in he could get out." Sanne keeps going.
Sanne climbs out of the sewers and looks at the Factory. "It seems so stupid that this place holds so much evil. It holds so much history." Sanne goes to the entrance and looks inside. "And so many memories." Sanne feels tears coming. "Dante, I can't kill you." Sanne goes back to the sewers and leaves
Sanne is enjoying her life in this world. With out Xana life was amazing for her. Top grades, best friends, and no worry of being killed. Now she was trying to convince Krieger to go out on a date. "Come on Krieger you're my best friend. I like you a lot Krieger and I know you like me." Sanne puts a hand on Krieger's hand.
"Sanne I don't like you like that." Krieger pulls his hand away.
"Why? How can you say that?" Sanne knows Krieger likes her. She had plenty of past experiences to know that.
"Because I, I, like someone else." Now Sanne is confused.
"Skitz?"
"No, not her. Look Sanne I don't want to talk about it. I do like you as a friend but nothing more." Sanne thinks.
"Ok, but who is this other person? Maybe I could help you?" This is another world. I just thought since we were really good friends it was set up for us to be together. "Since we are really good friends."
"I can't tell you." Krieger walks away leaving Sanne even more confused.
The next day Sanne is talking with Skitz. "He likes someone else but won't tell me who. I need you to ask Ark to keep an eye on him."
"Why? Sanne I'm sure if you kept it up he'd tell you the truth." Sanne rolls her eyes. "I'm telling you he likes you. It was probably a lie."
"I know he's telling the truth. After all we're really good friends. I know its not me or you but he's nervous about telling the person he does like." Skitz rubs her chin.
"Sora? I know they work out together. She's cute but really, Sora?"
"Oh, so Sora is," Sanne stops. There was still a lot about this world she didn't know about. "I get it. Krieger is so cute. He likes Sora but is afraid to tell her. I have to help him."
"What? Sanne don't you like him?" Sanne shrugs her shoulders.
"I like him enough to want him to be happy. And hey maybe I could date Ark." Skitz makes a face. "He's cute."
"He's my brother."
"So? He's still cute, and funny, and," Skitz puts her hands up.
"Stop! I won't hear about you and my brother!" Sanne laughs.
"Ok, fine. But I have to find Sora." Sanne leaves the room.
Sanne does find Sora and talks to her. "Ok? He's really nervous about it. He really likes you though." Sora raises an eyebrow.
"And what about you? I'm always fighting to get him away from you. I know he likes you as more then a friend."
"Don't worry. He's just a friend of mine. But I know he likes you and I want him to be happy."
"Really? Hell Sanne you're a pretty good friend." Sora smiles. "Thanks for the heads up. I never really knew how he felt about me since he's always hanging out with you and Skitz." Sora smiles. "But you're just friends?"
"Yes. But you like him as more then friends. Unlike I do."
"And Skitz?"
"She's boy crazy and Krieger is a boy but I think she's busy with Nike or Robbie. Or was it Alan?" Both girls laugh.
Two days later Sanne is going through the sewers to the Factory. She hadn't done anything, yet. And wasn't sure if she wanted to leave. Xana wasn't attacking in this world. Things were great. But as she climbs out of the sewers and sees the Factory she knows she has to destroy Xana. That is why she was here. "I can't do it. Dante is in there." She walks across the bridge to the entrance. She looks down at the Factory floor. "He's down there. Trapped in a Tower. Xana isn't trying to kill any one." Sanne sits down at the entrance. "I can't do it." She leans back and stares up at the sky.
The next day Krieger is angry. "I can't believe you told her that!" Krieger pushes Sanne.
"But it's true! I just wanted to help you Krieger. You're my friend and instead of having you scared to death to tell her you like her I told her."
"But I don't. Well, I do, but as just a friend. I can't believe you did that Sanne. Now she might not talk to me." Krieger shakes his head. "You don't understand."
"Understand what? You like someone but won't tell them. If it's not me or Skitz then it had to be Sora. You aren't friends with any other girls." Krieger looks away from Sanne. "Oh."
"Yeah oh." Krieger blushes.
"Um, uh, I'm sorry. I just, you're my friend and I wanted you to be happy and I thought if you liked Sora then you should um, be with her. But if um, you don't and like uh, someone else…" Sanne blushes.
"Don't tell any one please?"
"Of course I won't Krieger. You're my best friend." Sanne hugs him. "Who is it?" Krieger shakes his head.
"I won't tell you."
"Please? I promise I won't tell them. Is it Ark?" Krieger laughs.
"Are you serious? Ark? No, no."
"Well who?" Krieger shakes his head again. "Fine. But know I don't care about um, that. You're my friend and I want you to be happy." Sanne kisses Krieger on the cheek. "Ok?"
"Thank you Sanne. You're my best friend." Krieger hugs Sanne.
The next few weeks Sanne deals with the life she had. But she knew there was a weight on her shoulders that wouldn't go away. The Factory and the Super Computer followed her. They were always one step behind her weighing her down.
Sanne is going to the Factory. She goes through the sewers.
Sanne climbs out of the sewers and sees the Factory. "I have to do this." She crosses the bridge and goes to the entrance. "I have to go and destroy the Super Computer. I have to kill Xana, and Dante." She leaps and grabs the rope swinging down. "Don't wuss out now."
Sanne unlocks the elevator and takes it down to the Super Computer Room. She walks over to the Super Computer and places her hand on it. "I'm sorry Dante. I'm going to kill you before you even know how great it is to be on Earth." Sanne turns the Super Computer on and goes back to the elevator. She takes it up to the Control Room.
Sanne goes to the control panel and looks at the monitor. A screen appears. "You, who are you? What's going on?"
"I'm sorry Dante. I'm here to kill you." Sanne still has the memories. She still has the details and information used to kill Xana from another world.
"Kill me? Who are you? What is going on? Why aren't I possessed by Xana?" Sanne closes the screen and sends the Overbike outside of the Way Tower in the Forest Sector. She sets up the auto transfer then stops.
"How do I send the Transporter? Without someone else here I can't send the Transporter." Sanne stops the auto transfer. "Dante, I'm going to have to do this the hard way." Sanne pushes away from the control panel and goes back to the elevator.
Sanne takes the elevator up to the Factory floor. She looks through and finds some tools. "I'll have to destroy it by hand. Xana will stay locked in the Tower and no one will be able to turn it back on." Sanne goes back to the elevator and takes it down to the Super Computer Room.
Sanne opens a panel and removes some parts. She takes another panel out and smashes it with a hammer. She keeps doing this slowly and methodically destroying the Super Computer piece by piece.
Sanne has some long metal tongs in her hands. "Without the plutonium bar it can't work." Sanne pushes a button and the core opens.
Sanne reaches for the plutonium bar and uses the tongs to grab it. She removes it from the core. "Now what? I have a bar of plutonium and no where to put it." Sanne goes to the elevator and takes it up to the Factory floor.
Sanne walks around the Factory with the plutonium bar. "I just need a place to hide this." Sanne starts to feel sick.
Sanne places the plutonium bar down when her stomach starts to hurt. "What the frak?" She shakes her head when it starts to spin. "Frak." She throws up. "What's wrong with me?" Sanne has memories flash in her mind. When Dante had to fix the Super Computer he got really sick. Due to the radiation and other… "Oh frak. I'm going to keep getting sick until, shit!" Sanne had just destroyed the Super Computer. There was no chance of Franz helping fix her. "I'm going to die. But I destroyed the Super Computer so I did what I had to do." Sanne picks up the plutonium bar. "I'll get rid of this. I have to." She walks around the Factory until she finds a place suitable to hide it.
Sanne on her way back to Kadic Academy sits down on a bench. "I'm going to die. I'm always going to die. Why do I always die when I kill Xana?" Sanne gets her Jcell out and calls Aelita. "Mom?"
"Sanne dear, how are you?"
"I'm um, sick. Really sick."
"Oh Honey do you have the flu?"
"No mom, I'm going to die." Sanne fights back tears.
"Sanne don't kid like that. If you have the flu did you go to the Infirmary?" Sanne is fighting back tears. "Honey?"
"No mom it's not the flu! I'm going to die. I'm sorry but I had to do what I did. I saved lives but now I'm going to die." Sanne starts to cry. "I love you mom."
"Sanne what are you going on about? You're not going to die! Sanne you're starting to scare me."
"Mom, um, could you get the others and um, come out here? I won't die like in an hour but I will die. I want to see every one before I do."
"Sanne what are you talking about?"
"It's not like the other times. This time I have time to prepare."
"Sanne are you on drugs?"
"No! Mom you don't understand it. I did something that will save millions but I will die because of it." Sanne starts to cry.
"Sanne I, I'll come out as soon as I can. If you're homesick you can come back home." Sanne bites back a scream.
"I, mom please come out." Sanne hangs up on Aelita. She turns her phone off so Aelita can't call her back.
A few hours later Sanne is in her dorm room with Skitz. "Skitz, I'm sorry but um, something bad is going to happen." Sanne feels even worse.
"What Sanne? You're so pale, and wow you have a fever. Are you ok?" Skitz looks in Sanne's eyes. "Can you see me?"
"What?" Sanne feels her head hurt.
"You're eyes are like, white. I don't see your iris or stuff."
"Shit. I'm dying."
"You're sick but I don't think it will kill you." Skitz laughs.
"No, I'm dying. That's the bad thing that is going to happen." Sanne feels pain vibrate through her spine and into her brain.
"Ha ha very funny."
"I'm not kidding! I did something that would save lives but I'll die. It's going to kill me." Sanne starts to cry again.
"Sanne, don't cry it was probably just a bad dream." Skitz hugs her.
Aelita flies out to Paris. She goes straight to Kadic Academy.
Sanne is on her bed as blood flows out of her nose and ears and even a little out of her eyes. Skitz and her other friends are standing around the bed. "Sanne we already called Jim he's getting the nurse."
"It won't do any good. I'm going to die. I spent a lot more time there then Dante did. He's lucky Franz saved him. But there is no chance of that happening again." Sanne coughs and blood comes out.
"I think we should call a hospital." Krieger gets his Jcell out and starts to call but Sanne yells.
"Don't! It won't do any good. I'm going to die." Sanne laughs a little. "But I did it. It took me a few weeks to get up the courage to do it but I finally did it. He won't kill any one ever in this world."
"Sanne, no." The others turn and see Aelita. "You, you can't be dying!" Aelita starts to cry.
"Its ok mom I did it." Sanne sees Aelita and smiles. "I finally did it."
"What did you do? What did you do to get so sick?" Aelita kneels down next to Sanne. "Sanne please what did you do?"
"I did it. You locked him away but he could have gotten out at any time. But I did it." Sanne tries to smile but is too weak.
"What are you talking about?" Aelita's eyes get wide. "No, you didn't!" Aelita puts a hand over her mouth. "You fought Xana and now you're going to die?! But why? We told you they were just stories!"
"What?" Every one else is shocked.
"It's ok mom. He's dead. The Super Computer is destroyed. I did my job and when I die I'll be back at the nothingness ready to choose another world." Sanne coughs and more blood comes out.
"Honey you won't die. We'll get the best doctors in the world to save you." Sanne laughs a little.
"Nothing will save me. I won't die for nothing mom. Frak the last few times I died I didn't get a chance to see you or the others." Sanne snaps her fingers. "And I was dead. This time I actually got a chance to say I love you. All of you." Sanne feels a blackness come over her. "It's coming soon."
"Sanne?" Jim and the nurse come in.
"Oh my God. What the hell happened to you child?" The nurse puts a hand on Sanne's forehead. "You're so hot. I have my thermometer." The nurse puts a pad on Sanne's forehead. A few seconds later it beeps and a number comes up. "Forty two point seven degrees Celsius! You're boiling alive. If we don't get you to a hospital your internal organs will be destroyed!"
"It's ok. I have to die." Sanne stops talking as more blood flows out of her nose and into her mouth. She coughs and more blood comes out.
"Jim pick her up we don't have time for an ambulance." The others move out of the way for Jim.
"No, stop." Sanne pushes away. "I'm dead. It's over. Your world is safe. You have a world without danger." Sanne closes her eyes.
"No, Sanne no!" Aelita's screams pierce through the halls of the dorm.
Sanne wakes up in the nothingness. "I did it."
Yes you did. How do you feel?
"I'm not sick any more." Sanne laughs. "I was stupid. If I had remembered about the illness I wouldn't have done that."
Yes.
"But I didn't have any one to send the Transporter. It was impossible for me to go alone."
Then why didn't you ask for help? You had friends who would have helped you. You didn't have too go in alone.
"I was an idiot. It took me so long to get the guts to go that when I finally did I didn't think. I just acted."
Well Xana was destroyed like you were supposed to do. But destroying the Super Computer like that has leaked out the deadly radiation. Several people who lived near the Factory became sick. Two children die from the radiation.
"What? But, no. Why did they have to die? I killed Xana I did it!"
But the way you did it killed children. Sanne you are a force of good. Every time you kill Xana you become more good than before. But you are not equal in levels to Xana. His evil is far greater than your good.
"But, you mean, I have to die? Why do I have to die? Why can't I kill Xana and not die?" Sanne looks around but there is nothing. No source of this voice.
You don't have to. Some times others die. And other times the balance is left unbalanced. It is your choices that decide if you die or not. It is your choices that lead to people dying. If you choose right no one will die except for Xana.
"But how do I do that? I've tried and tried and I always end up dying!"
Not always. You have lived before. Your mother lived several years before being killed. There are ways Sanne.
"That doesn't make it any better! Because of me she was paralyzed and was captured by the MIB and tortured and finally killed!"
Yes she was.
"I always mess every thing up!" Sanne gets angry. "I hate you! I can't believe you'd send me out to do something that ends up ruining my life or my mom's life!"
You are becoming better and better. You will do better. You have an infinite amount of times to get better.
"But I want to be good now!"
You are good. You are also evil. In some worlds you are worse than Xana.
"You told me that before but, but, send me there."
Send you where?
Sanne smiles. She has an idea. "Send me to a world where I'm evil. I know that I-" Sanne disappears from the nothingness.
A/N And so she saves the day. She dies, but she saved the day. Hope you all enjoy and again know that this is leading too a final plan. Some may know what it is, others might not have pieced it together yet.
