Odd wondered why she was in such a hurry. He was about to follow her and ask if she needed help when his phone vibrated.

"Hello?" he answered.

"Hey Odd, Jeremy says there's an activated tower in LYOKO. Meet us in the factory," Aelita told him.

"Okay," Odd replied, ending the call.

He headed for the factory. Everyone was there, so Jeremy sent everyone in.

"Okay, everybody, here's your vehicles. The tower's southeast of where you are," Jeremy told them.

They headed for the tower.

Tianna ran for her room. She ran in and slammed the tower. 'Thank god I have my own room,' she thought, heading for her computer. She took the disc out of her laptop and put it in her computer. She booted up her computer. She launched the program, tapping her foot anxiously. Her henna was going a hundred colors a minute, she was so anxious. The program beeped, telling her it worked. She hit the launch button, sending her flying into LYOKO.

Tianna landed on her butt. 'Note to self: work on landings,' she thought as she ran towards the activated tower. She had no idea what she could do to stop X.A.N.A.'s attacks, but she figured she could do something. She ran through the twisted paths of the forest sector. She heard a buzzing sound and looked up. Four vehicles and five people zoomed above heard. 'They look like the ones I met before,' she thought as she ran faster. A couple tarantulas and William stood in front of the tower. 'This should be fun to watch she thought as she climbed one of the trees for a better look. She watched as they spun, dodged, shot, and slashed at the monsters and William. The one was trying to get in the tower, but couldn't find a hole to. Tianna finally figured she should help them out. She focused on the last three tarantulas. One went flying off the edge, a rock smashed the second one, and the third one just exploded. Everyone, including William, looked around, wondering how that happened. The one took advantage of the distraction and ran for the tower. She tried to go in it but the tower wouldn't let her in.

"Jeremy, something's wrong! I can't get in the tower!" the girl said.

"The tower doesn't register your signature, Aelita. X.A.N.A. bugged it and it will take me forever to debug it," the voice, Jeremy said.

'So this IS them,' she thought as she climbed down the tree. She decided that she needed to devirtualize herself. 'Now what did I need to do?' she wondered as she searched her memory. 'Oh yeah, I need to find the nearest deactivated tower. Well I could wait for Aelita to deactivate the tower or I could head for another one. I think I'll try to find another one. Now if I'm correct the nearest one is down that path right…there.' Unfortunately, the path she needed was near the activated tower. 'Great, how do I get passed them?' she wondered. 'Oh yeah, I can turn invisible!' She tried going invisible, but for some reason she could only make her arm disappear. 'Must be a glitch. I'll have to fix it,' she thought, frustrated. She decided she was just going to have to get past them. 'Unfortunately, that means I'll have to get past William too,' she thought. She focused on a rock nearby. 'If I can just hit him just right…' she thought as she sent it flying at him. It hit him and he went toppling of the edge. She sighed in relief.

"Why do these rocks kept coming from no where?" the purple one, Odd, wondered.

She thought that she should start running while they were still distracted. She ran along the edge of the walkway. Something hit her leg.

"Stop!" someone called.

Tianna looked up. 'Drat! They spotted me!' she angrily thought. She looked at them. 'I can't take them all; I'm just going to have to run.' She started to run again, but the one ran in front of her. 'Super speed…great…' she thought.

"Odd, doesn't she look familiar?" the boy in front of her asked. She guessed he was probably Ulrich.

"That's the girl we saw a couple days ago!" Odd exclaimed.

'I have to get out of here!' she thought, panicking. Her henna started changing colors.

"Look!" Aelita pointed at her wrist. "Doesn't Tianna have a henna that changes colors too?"

"Wait a minute…" Odd said, staring at her. "I think this is Tianna!"

"Hey, I'd love to stay here and be guessed at who I am but I've gotta run." With that said, Tianna jumped over the surprised gang and ran for the tower.

"Jeremy, we need our vehicles!" Odd cried.

Tianna ran as fast as she could. Odd and Ulrich sped on their vehicles close behind her. 'Come on tower, please be close by…' she thought desperately. A tower loomed in the distance. She was almost there. She ran towards it. Praying that X.A.N.A. hadn't bugged up all the towers, she ran into it. It let her in. She let herself be taken to the second level. She accessed the screen as she heard the others entering the tower after her.

"Tianna, wait!" Odd yelled.

"Bye…" Tianna yelled back as she was devirtualized.

Tianna found herself sitting in her chair in her dorm room. 'Now, to lock the door and fix this program,' she thought as she shakily got up. She locked the door and headed for the computer. She had just fixed the program when there was a loud knock on her door. She made sure she was as quiet as possible.

"Tianna?" someone called.

Tianna ignored whoever it was and turned back to her notebook. 'Now, where did I put that data?' she wondered as she flipped through it.

"Tianna, I know you're in there. Open up! Please. I just want to talk…" the same person said again.

Tianna sighed and went to the door and opened it just a crack. She saw that Odd was outside her door. "I. Don't. Want. To. Talk." she simply said, then closed the door.

"Tianna, what do I have to do to talk to you?" Odd asked through the closed door.

Tianna slid her earphones on and turned on her ipod.

Tianna headed for the cafeteria. It was dinnertime and she was starving. Odd had stood outside her door for a good half-an-hour asking to talk. Tianna had just ignored him. She got in line and picked up a plate of spaghetti. She walked towards a empty table in the back. As she passed a table, someone called out to her.

"Hey. You're the new girl right? Come sit with us!" some girl called.

Tianna looked over at them. The girl that had called over to her was dressed mostly in pink. Two boys sat with her, and were obviously nerds that followed her around. She was about to blow them off when she saw Odd, Ulrich, Jeremy, and Aelita enter the cafeteria. She immediately took a seat with the annoying girl.

"My name is Sissi and these are my weird friends Herb and Nicholas," the girl, Sissi, told her.

"I'm Tianna," Tianna replied.

"See, I'm the principal's daughter so I can do anything. And see that group over there? They're mostly just all weird except for the brown haired one, Ulrich. He's mine…" Sissi continued to tell Tianna all about them and some other random people.

Tianna just tuned her out, nodding at the appropriate times. She occasionally ate a bite of her spaghetti, but mostly just stared at her plate. Odd occasionally looked back at her, trying to get her to sit over with him and the others. When Sissi finally finished talking and eating, they took their trays up.

"Hey Tianna, can we talk to you?" Jeremy asked.

"No." Tianna replied.

"Why would she want to talk with you when she could talk to me?" Sissi added.

"Actually Sissi, I don't want to talk to anyone," Tianna said, walking away.

Tianna walked down the stairs from the cafeteria. She started walking towards her dorm building.

"Enjoy your dinner with Sissi?" someone asked behind her.

She glanced behind her shoulder. Ulrich leaned against the wall of the cafeteria building. "What part of 'I don't want to talk' did you not get?" Tianna asked, obviously annoyed.

"Fine. We don't have to talk," Ulrich replied as he walked towards her.

Tianna raised an eyebrow, but kept walking.

They were halfway to the dorm and Tianna couldn't take the eerie silence between them anymore. "Why did you really come out to talk to me?" she finally asked.

"Well, Jeremy wants to know how you got to LYOKO. But you don't have to talk about it if you don't want to. Trust me, I hate talking about a lot of things so I can understand," he told her.

"I have my own ways of getting to LYOKO," Tianna replied.

"So do we. We go through the factory. What about this question: how did you get to LYOKO in the first place?" Ulrich asked.

"I got there in my own way," she answered.

Ulrich sighed. This was pointless; he was getting nowhere. "You really surprised us today in LYOKO."

"Well it was the only way to get to a regular tower," she replied casually.

"You need a tower to get back?" he asked.

"Maybe, maybe not." She was having fun giving him vague answers. "Well, we're here at the dormitory. You can go tell your friends all the vague answers I gave you." She laughed and headed for her room.

She reached into her pocket for her key. She went to unlock her door when she realized it was open just a crack. She pushed it open and saw Jeremy and Aelita on her computer.

"Would you people stop bugging me!" she shouted at them.

They jumped. "We just want to know what you have to do with LYOKO and X.A.N.A.," Aelita said, trying to calm Tianna down.

"Listen, under any other circumstances, I would tell you. But considering it's not any other circumstances, I'm not telling you! Now get out!" she said. They didn't budge, so she had to mentally shove them out of her room. They're expressions were a perfect display of shock as they felt themselves lifted up and shoved out of her room. "Now leave me alone!"

Not much fluff in this chapter. It'll come up in some of the next chapters. Please review; this is my first story and I want to know how I did! And also, sorry for any big words; the computer gives me options to change the word into something better, and I like long words! XD
