Ziggy was hitting the arrow keys on the keyboard moving Elena, the warrior. She was fighting the boss, after claiming the battle armor. "Wow! This is cool! Oh no! Too fast!" He took a sip of his soft drink and began madly clicking the arrow keys, moving her. She got hit twice and fell back.

The door burst open and Pixel, Trixie and Stephanie came in, yelling frantically and raced to the computer, startling Ziggy so much that his drink flew up in the air.

"Ziggy, you have to stop!" Pixel got Ziggy away from the computer and took over.

"Huh? What's going on?!"

"Elena is still a part of the game and is in town-" Stephanie yelled.

"-in battle armor-" Trixie chimed in.

"fighting Sportacus!" Pixel finished.

"What?!"

Pixel went wild on the keyboard typing in commands and was about to hit enter-

SPLASH

His hands froze and eyes wide. Everyone froze!

Pixel took a deep breath. "NOOOOOOOOO!"

"Pixel?!"

He hit the keys but they were unresponsive. He turned the keyboard upside down to drain the liquid. He was turning left and right trying to think. Pixel looked at his screen. "It's, its auto locked in free mode!"

"What does that mean?"

"It means Sportacus is on his own!

"What?!"

"If I can't get in the system, Elena could stay that way, forever. Stephanie, go tell Sportacus! Ziggy, Trixie and I will look in the basement for one of my old keyboards. I hope he's ok."


Sportacus, at the end of a sword that Elena, now in warrior mode, is holding, was about to make a final blow.

"Elena!"

Suddenly she stopped, blinked her eyes hard and shook her head. Her eyes went back to normal, giving Sportacus time to get on his feet and away from her sword. She blinked and her eyes were white again.

"Elena." He whispered, crestfallen.

She cocked her head and looked at him.

"Elena, it's me. Sportacus." He walked slowly towards her. "Remember? Please see me. I love you."

Her head went back upright, curiously and slowly raised her sword above his head and removed his cap.

"Yes! I'm an elf too." She raised an eyebrow. She turned around and jumped off the roof.

"Elena!" She took off running. He flipped off the roof and took off after her.

She ran into Stephanie. Stephanie stopped and the warrior Elena raised her sword.

"NOOOO!" Sportacus's shooter came out from his armband and wrapped around Elena's wrist. Then he pulled hard. The sword flew from her hand, right at him, then dissipated in the air.

She jumped over Stephanie and ran out of town.

"Stephanie, are you ok?"

"Yes. The keyboard was damaged and the game is stuck. If we don't get her back to normal soon, it may be permanent."

"What?!"

She nodded.

"Get back and help Pixel! I'm going after Elena!" He bolted off.


Robbie was examining his billboard, hand on his chin, contemplating a new picture. He turned around and noticed Elena near him. "Well...that's a new look for you." She brought out her staff and went after Robbie. He screamed and ran into the billboard. No where left to run, he spun around. "What's wrong with you?"

She brought the staff up to his neck then a pair of arms grabbed her around her waist.

Sportacus had a hold of her and pulled her away from Robbie.

"Robbie! Get back!" His crystal started to glow. She loosened her grip and the staff fell to the ground. Once it did, it dissipated like the sword. She put her hands on his arms, struggling to get away.

"No, no, no. Not this time." He struggled to tightening his grip.

She tried to run and he lifted her up so her feet weren't on the ground. She was very strong in this form but she was starting to weaken. So was he,as he was low on energy, but he held on tight. Then she slumped in his arms.

Relieved, he loosened his grip. As soon as he did that, she broke free and knocked a surprised Sportacus to the ground. Why didn't the connection sever? Then he realized."Robbie! You have to help me!" He said hopping on his feet.

"What in blazes is going on here?" Robbie demanded.

"She's still linked to the warrior game!"

She reached down to her boots and pulled out two daggers and went into a fighting stance. She looked at Sportacus.

"You have to help me get the amulet off her!"

"What?! You're the superhero! You do it!"

She came after Sportacus who, flipped over her.

"Hide behind the billboard! Then grab the amulet when I say!"

"What! Are you crazy?!" He yelled, going behind the billboard.

She spun around and threw a dagger at Sportacus. It disappeared before reaching him.

"If we don't help her, she could stay like this!" He said moving away as she charged him. "If you care for her at all, you'll help!"

Robbie watched as she ran at Sportacus again. He jumped to avoid her but she jumped up to him. "The dagger!" He hollered. Her hand with the dagger disappeared under his vest and a look of shock ran over Sportacus's face and the only thing Robbie could do was watch, horror-struck.
