Krieger is coming back from a date with Skitz. "Man she probably messed my neck up again. I hate how the teachers look at me." Krieger rubs his neck as he opens the door to his dorm room and sees Ark on his bed looking at a nudie magazine. "Ark what are you doing with one of those?"
"I'm a man I'm allowed to have them." Ark turns his head and whistles at a model. "Damn."
"You're a kid not a man. What about Mira?" Krieger sits down on his bed as Ark goes turns a couple pages. Krieger sees a magazine sticking out from Ark's mattress and rolls his eyes.
"She doesn't want to go that far and I'm damn scared to go that far, now. But if I can figure out the logistics of it from these…" Ark unfolds Miss October. "Man check out these." Ark shows Krieger.
"How did you get it?" Krieger is uncomfortable with what was going on.
"Gave magazine rack guy money and when he went to get change I switched magazines and let him have the change. I've done it so many times I think the guy doesn't care. He gets an extra twenty seven Euros and I get the next issue of, whoa, man I hope Mira gets like this when she's older?"
"Ark put them away. What if one of the girls had walked in instead of me?"
"Well if it was Mira maybe… Don't make me talk now." Ark goes through the magazine until he finishes it. "So how did things go with my sister? Looks like she left lots of marks on your neck again I see." Ark laughs as Krieger puts his hands to his neck.
"You're just jealous since you've probably never seen a naked woman in real..." Krieger stops. "Shit, uh,"
"Oh, so you saw my sister naked?" Krieger looks away blushing. "Seriously?"
"Hey, it isn't like that. Like, two attacks ago we were at the pool. She was attacked and I ran in to help and she uh, had been changing out of her wet swimsuit. Nothing like you're thinking. I swear it was an accident. She was hurt and needed help."
"I should still punch you but I know she can take care of herself." He sighs. "It isn't my job to protect her because she can protect herself. Her life, her choice."
"That sounds like something your dad said."
Ark nods. "It is. He wanted to make sure I kept an eye on her but only if she really needed it. Like, drugs or something you know? Her body, her choice. We know to be safe. Our parents made sure we knew what we needed to know." He raises a fist. "I should still beat you up."
"I'm not letting you touch me with your hands until you wash them."
Ark laughs. "Man I wasn't doing that I just got this issue and couldn't wait to go through it." Ark puts the magazine under his mattress and Krieger sees about a dozen more.
"Now I know what you spend your money on." Krieger gets a bag of clothes. He still took his showers at night. A clean body means a clean bed. "I'm taking a shower and if I come back to you doing anything I am telling the girls about your stash of porn."
For once Ark blushes. "You know what? I have to go find Mira and tell her how good looking she is."
Ark and Krieger leave the room going in separate directions. As the door closes a black mist comes out and moves under Ark's bed. Soon the magazine he had been looking at comes out and three different models form from the pages.
"Ark Della Robbia, Krieger Buke Stern, Mira Dallas Roarke, Sanne Belpois, Skitz Della Robbia, they are your targets. Kill them." Xana's message is heard by the three possessed magazine models. The leader, Miss October, breaks through the door of the dorm room.
"Whoa!" A 7th grade student getting back from the library and getting ready for bed sees three beautiful naked women leaving a dorm room. "Uh, wow." The three women walk by ignoring him. "Whose room is that?" The student goes over and sees it is Ark Della Robbia's and Krieger Stern's room. "What were they doing?" He looks in since the door was broken and sees no one is inside. "How do I get three women to chase after me?" He watches them walk down the hall unable to take his eyes off of them. One stops at the door to the boys shower room.
"Krieger is in this room." The model on the right opens the door and walks in. Krieger is washing his hair and doesn't hear the door open. He washes the shampoo out and goes to grab the soap when he sees a beautiful naked woman that looks familiar but he doesn't seem to have enough blood going to his brain to remember where he saw her.
"Uh, um, you…" He stammers as the woman walks over to him. "I, you can't be in here." Krieger says this more trying to tell himself this couldn't be happening then telling this beautiful woman that she wasn't allowed in the boys' shower room.
"Hello Krieger I've been looking for you." The woman's voice is as sweet and sultry as the woman's body. "Xana wants you to die, pity, you really are cute." She swings at Krieger but he dodges it on instinct and her fist slams into the shower wall making a hole. As the woman struggles to get her fist out Krieger runs from the showers and into the changing room.
He tries to get clothes on but the door is literally ripped off the door. Krieger looks around and grabs a towel. He wraps it around his waist as he runs out of the boys' shower room.
Sanne is getting back to her room after brushing her teeth when she hears a beeping noise. "Attack! I have to call the others." Sanne gets her phone off of the charger and calls Krieger, his phone rings but he can't answer it.
"So you got away from Melina. I knew it was a good idea to wait for you here." The other model is waiting for Krieger in his room. "That must be Sanne calling for you to tell you there is an attack." The model laughs. "Run, let's see how well you can run with just a towel." Krieger backs away as the model starts to walk towards him. Krieger backs into the wall then runs.
"Ok Sanne we'll be there." Ark hangs up and turns to Mira. "Xana's attacking beautiful so we must be going."
"Ok, um, don't tell them ok?" Mira puts her shirt back on and blushes. Her and Ark had been taking things slowly but Ark said he wanted to give her a massage to help her sleep but she had to take her shirt off so her could really work on her muscles. She knew he was just trying to get her shirt off but decided it would be ok, it would still be moving the relationship but not going to fast.
Ark opens the door and immediately runs into a naked woman who hugs him and kisses him.
"Ark dear you said to meet you in your room but you weren't there." She smiles and kisses him again. "I just couldn't wait."
"I, I, uh, um, I…" Ark is dumbfounded by what is going on. He pulls away from the woman and is pushed by Mira.
"You, you, I hate you!" Mira slams the door shut and locks it.
"She doesn't love you as much as you think she does. If she did she would have let you explain." The model grabs Ark by the throat. "Recognize me?"
"Miss October?" She smiles.
"Yes, glad you recognized my face, most men don't look at it." She leans down and kisses Ark again. "To bad I have been ordered to kill you." She squeezes her hand around Ark's neck and starts to choke him. She lifts him into the air as energy sparks around her. Ark's face turns red as he struggles. He kicks against Mira's door hoping she would open it. When he kicks hard enough to put his foot through Mira opens the door and sees Ark being choked by the woman.
"Xana, Ark, I'm so sor…" The model grabs Mira by the throat.
"To late little girl. Hmpf, no wonder he was looking at me you're almost as flat as my back." The model laughs as she starts to choke Mira and lifts her into the air.
"I hear you, I'll be there." Skitz hangs her phone up. "Shit, I better go." She was in a study group with a couple others.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, Barack. Nothing too big anyways." Dang he is cute. One hell of a smile. If it weren't for Xana...
As she runs out of the room, she hears a noise. "Xana." She takes the stairs to the girls' dorm floor where the laughter is coming from and sees a naked woman choking her brother and Mira. "Hey! Leave them alone Jugs!" The model drops both Ark and Mira, they don't move.
"Jugs? Jealous are we?" The woman walks towards Skitz.
"Heh, looks like those are fake with the way you jiggle." Skitz laughs. She wanted to draw the woman away from her brother. This also brought the model away from Mira but Skitz wasn't really worried about her.
"I killed those two already now I get to kill you."
"Yeah right like my brother would go down that easily to some bimbo with more plastic in her then a Barbie." Skitz waits for the woman to get close before she starts down the stairs. The model chases after her leaving Ark and Mira behind.
Krieger gets to the Factory after the model stopped chasing him and goes down to the Control Room. "Oh, Sanne, hi." He blushes and makes sure the towel stays up.
"What are you doing?" Sanne blushes and looks away. Krieger's hair is still wet, his upper body is showing and she can see his well defined muscles.
"I, I was taking a shower when, uh, Xana attacked." Krieger didn't want to mention the naked woman to Sanne. "I tried to grab clothes but he didn't stop chasing me until I got to the sewer entrance in the park."
"Oh, well, um, just keep it up." Krieger sits down on the floor carefully as they wait for the others to make it. As they wait Krieger notices Sanne keeps looking over at him then turns away when he catches her.
"Sanne, what is it?"
"Um, uh, aren't you cold? I could send you to Lyoko now. I'm sure the Desert Sector will be a lot better then sitting there in a towel." Sanne has to keep herself from looking at Krieger. There are thoughts running through her mind that she hates. He's just a friend, stop looking at his body, that strong almost chiseled… No! She shakes her head as she hears the elevator run. Krieger is taking it down to the Scanner Room. "Transfer Krieger, Scanner Krieger, Virtualization." He lands in the Desert Sector. "So how does that feel? Better?"
"A lot thanks." Krieger sits down. He was getting cold in the Control Room. It is early December and a towel was not enough to keep him warm.
Back at Kadic Academy Skitz runs to the sewer entrance in the woods and finds two more naked women. "What is up with this?" Skitz turns around and sees the other woman chasing after her. "Damn they better deactivate that Tower." Skitz runs off into the woods and now all three women chase after her.
In the dorm building Ark and Mira start to come back. Ark sits up and shakes his head. His neck hurt and his lungs hurt but other then that he seems fine. He sees Mira on the floor. "Mira!" He shakes her and her eyes open.
"Ark, Xana, ouch." Ark had shaken her a little too hard.
"Mira, we have to get to the Factory." Ark stands up then helps Mira up.
"I, it was Xana, I'm sorry." Mira had yelled at Ark but should have known it wasn't Ark cheating on her but Xana.
"Shut up." Ark runs to the staircase mad at Mira. She had yelled at him and turned on him so quickly. He remembered when his sister said Sanne said Mira was working for Xana and Ark had trusted Mira. He didn't turn on her when it seemed she was working for the great evil that was evil yet she turned on him in an instant.
"Maybe her feelings for me aren't as strong as my are for her."
"Ark, wait!" She runs after him thinking he was just in a hurry to get to the Factory so they could go to Lyoko.
"So Krieger how are things between you and Skitz?" Sanne is bored waiting for the others.
"Good, just had a date tonight. We saw French Pie 3, it was okay but a little crude." Krieger is sitting on the ground of the Desert Sector.
Going to Lyoko probably healed the marks Skitz left on his neck. "What were you doing?"
"Um, working on a program." I'm such an idiot! No, stop that he's just a friend, what the hell is wrong with you?" Sanne shakes her head. "After I worked out in the gym."
"Oh, well, maybe tomorrow we could do some training." They continue to talk as Skitz is captured by the three models.
"Let me go bimbos!" Skitz struggles but the models are strong because of Xana and one pins her arms behind her back.
"Skitz Della Robbia, I killed your brother and his little girlfriend now I get to kill you." A second model grabs Skitz by the throat. "Hmmm, no, that was no fun." She lets go of Skitz's neck. "It is cold out, if it weren't for Xana's powers we would be frozen. Join us Skitz and freeze to death." The models use the powers given to them by Xana and burn Skitz's clothes off.
"Look at her, shivering already!" Miss October kicks Skitz. "Come on Skitz, run, keep the blood flowing. Maybe if you run back to the school a boy will help you." Miss October and the other two models laugh. "I said run!" Miss October kicks Skitz again who starts to get up and run trying to ignore the cold. "Wait, give her a head start then we can hunt her down." The three models wait one minute then chase after a cold naked Skitz.
"Hey, Ark and Mira made it." Sanne heard the alarm go off and checked the cameras. She then hears the elevator running and soon the two steps off the elevator.
"Where are Skitz, and Krieger?" Ark looks around the room.
"Krieger's on Lyoko and Skitz is somewhere. Let me call her again." Sanne calls Skitz but gets no answer. Her phone was destroyed when her clothes were burned. "I'm guessing whatever Xana sent is attacking Skitz.
"Oh, we, we better hurry." Ark worries about his sister. Miss October was strong enough to lift him with one hand who knew what she would do to his sister. He didn't know about the other models or he would have worried even more.
"Ok, auto transfer is ready." Sanne starts it and the three take the elevator down to the Scanner Room and get in the Scanners before the doors close. Soon they land on Lyoko next to Krieger and the vehicles.
"Where's the Tower Sanne?" Krieger was already on the Overbike and waits for Sanne to get on the back.
"Go north. The barrier was pretty big so we need to go as fast as possible." Krieger revs the engine and takes off. The others get on the other vehicles and take off after the two.
Skitz is running through the woods slowing down as she gets colder and colder. She trips on a root and falls over. "No, I have to keep running." She stands up and stumbles, she has broken two toes but was so cold she didn't feel it. "Have to get away." She starts to feel lost, defeated, close to crying as hope leaves her as fast as her body heat does. She hears footsteps and turns to see the tallest of the models walking over to her. "Hey there Jugs."
"Still able to joke are we?" The model walks over to Skitz. "You're so cold I won't even have to kill you. I'll just wait for you to freeze to death." The model spits on Skitz then throws her to the ground. "Crawl, beg me for mercy, beg for me to save your pathetic life."
"Eat me Jugs." Skitz stands up. "I may be cold but at least I'm real."
"Eat you? I could but you'd have to clean up first." Skitz swings at the model and the model grabs her arm. "This will do." She bites down on Skitz's arm and Skitz's scream alerts the other models where she was.
Sanne goes to the Tower and saves the day launching a return.
Skitz finds herself in the theater with Krieger. "Oh, you guys did it."
"Hey," Krieger pulls away from Skitz. No marks have been left on his neck, yet. "Uh, we already saw this, want to do something else?"
"Sure!" Frak. I really wanted to make out again. Leave my mark on him for Sanne to see.
"Good, not the arcade I'm tired of you beating me at Immortal Fighters." I hate when she marks me but she seems to like it. Hell, when we do it it is fun. And the other stuff... Didn't this start off us trying to make Sanne jealous? He looks at Skitz and takes her hand in his. Sometimes I'm glad the plan failed. He sees a smiling Sanne in his thoughts. Other times I don't.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Uh, um," Krieger stops. "Your brother has some interesting magazines hidden under his mattress."
"It's where the bimbos that attacked me came from, isn't it?" He nods. "Do you look at them with him?"
"What? No. Gross." She smiles. "What?"
"Sure, I believe you." She shoves him. "Perv."
"Hey, you're the one who screamed for me to help you while you were naked in the pool locker room."
"I was being attacked by Xana. I wasn't thinking clearly." She punches him on the arm. "Like you complained." Maybe I didn't need help but it didn't hurt...
"Well, I didn't." Maybe we should stop the plan and just date. If things don't work out they don't work out. We're just having fun.
Ark is screaming. "I don't care Mira. You turned on me in a freaking second. I trust you, I've always trusted you. I stopped my sister from beating you into the infirmary when Xana told us you were working for him. I didn't believe him for a second yet you turned on me like that!" Ark snaps his fingers.
She throws her hands up. "I'm sorry Ark you don't understand. I, I really like you and don't want to lose you. When, when I saw that girl kissing you I, I lost it." Mira was on the verge of tears.
Ark had been yelling at her for nearly ten minutes and wouldn't listen. "I tell you there is an attack and as we leave Miss October is there and kisses me and you don't put two and two together?"
"Who?" Ark stops. "Miss October, you're acting like she's some porn magazine… Ark! What are you doing with something like that!?" The yelling had been turned around.
"I don't have to explain myself. You're not ready for more, I'm not much better. We take it slow but until we do more I, well, I'm a man."
"You're a boy." Ark laughs.
"Krieger said the same thing."
"You and Krieger look at the magazine together? That's a little wrong." Mira laughs. "Boys are gross."
"No, I, I just got the October issue and Krieger saw me looking at it and I showed him some of the models."
"Models? Try skanks." Mira kisses Ark. "If you don't get rid of them I'll make sure everyone knows you and Krieger look at them together."
"You wouldn't dare do that to Krieger. Me I understand but Krieger didn't do anything wrong."
"Get rid of them."
"Come on I spent like twenty Euros on each one."
"I don't care, get rid of them." Mira kisses him as he groans.
"Fine, I'll get rid of them." Ark kisses Mira and leaves her room. He goes to his room and lifts his mattress. "I'm sorry ladies but the big girl doesn't like you." Ark looks around and figures out how to get them out. He grabs his book bag, fills it up with a dozen magazines, and carries them to the school dumpster.
