Chapter 6: Sightings
Odd's face immediately fell. But then something in his mind connected.
Why had Mark asked where and who he was?
Odd glanced at Yumi, who seemed to be having the same thought. She shrugged.
The cat-like warrior looked upwards and wondered when all this would end.

Jeremy pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose. He was facing Ulrich, who was watching Mark interestedly, as if struggling to read his mind.
Mark was wondering around the room, gazing at the hollow map, multiple monitors and many wires.
"Leslie would love this place," He muttered.
"What's he murmuring about?" Jeremy asked in a hushed voice.
"Oh," Ulrich responded. "About that." He gulped. "You see, he kinda has amnesia. He won't remember a thing."
"Right…"

In Mark's mind….
Where am I? Who am I? What is this place? What's this map of, and why do I feel like I've been here before…?

"I…can't…hold…much…longer…" Aelita gasped.
"Don't worry. You can let you shield down now," Jeremy said from over head. "The monsters are far away now."
With a small gasp, Aelita stopped glowing, and she straitened her back. "The barrier will hold a little longer, but we should be ready to move…" She trailed off.
Yumi and Odd nodded in agreement, and took to running stances.

Unnoticed by any of the boys in the room except one, a mist like substance leaked from one of the thick wires over head.
"Hey," Mark interrupted the other boys, who were both muttering into the microphone. Both looked up at the one word.
"Yes?"
"Should there be gas...coming out of the wires?"
Jeremy shook his head and look at Ulrich. The two Lyoko Warriors already knew what, and who, exactly, it was.
XANA.
From there things happened pretty quickly.
