Dennis just sat there stunned; XANA had just mortally wounded Calvin and was seeing no signs of life from him. Ami ran up to him.

"Dennis, what happened?" she asked, extremely worried about her brother. "Is Calvin alright?"

Dennis sighed morosely. "I'm so sorry, Ami." he said as he buried his head in his hands "Calvin's dead."

Ami couldn't believe what she was hearing. "You're wrong! He can't be!" Ami said with tears flowing from her eyes. "Please don't say that!"

Dennis hugged her as she sobbed in his shoulder. Dennis felt like crying, too, but he just sat there silently.

Meanwhile on Lyoko, Calvin's body lied motionless on the ground. XANA walked up and drew his sword from Calvin's chest.

"You were no match for me. Why would you decide to continue fighting me?" XANA said "It makes no logical sense."

As XANA was about to dispose of the body, something happened. Dennis let go of the crying Ami and looked on the computer screen. According to Calvin's information card (A/N: or whatever they're called.) Calvin was regaining his life points.

"I don't believe it." Dennis said, Ami looked up. She couldn't believe it either. "Calvin's coming back to life." Ami's tears of sorrow were now replaced with tears of joy.

"But how?" Ami asked

What they didn't know was that back on Lyoko, a white, humanoid shaped spectre came down and wrapped itself around Calvin; Calvin's wounds immediately began healing up. When Calvin regained his conscience, the spectre shot a blast of light from one of its arms towards XANA; It seemed to be drawing something from him.

"It's not logical." XANA said to the spectre "I disposed of you years ago!"

Back on Earth, the computer screen began filling up with data that XANA had with him. The Carthage Project, the scanner anti-virus, Calvin's anti-virus, and more were contained within the data.

On Lyoko, the spectre disappeared and Calvin got up, he went up to XANA, but he fled.

"Another day, Calvin." XANA said "And this time, my oldest enemy won't be there to save you."

"Hey guys, what did I miss?" Calvin asked

Dennis and Ami just cheered and hugged one another when they heard his voice.

"Nothing much, Calvin." Dennis said "We got the data, and I'm taking you to the Forest Sector to help Antea and Sam."

"How are you going to do that?" Calvin asked

"A new program I invented." Dennis said

Meanwhile, on the Forest Sector, Sam and Antea were having problems of their own. They were surrounded by 5 Krabes, 3 Hornets, 2 Bloks, and a Megatank.

"It's no use, Antea." Sam said despondently "We've been fighting for hours, and we haven't made a dent."

"It's only been 20 minutes." Antea said to herself as she fired an energy blast at a Blok, immediately destroying it.

"Don't be too sure." They heard Dennis say

"What do you mean?" Sam asked

"YAHOOOO!" they heard a voice shout from above; it belonged to none other than Calvin. He began pole vaulting on the Krabes, destroying each of them as they went along. As he destroyed the last one, the last remaining Blok hit him in the shoulder.

"Are you all right?" Sam asked

"Believe me, I've been through worse." Calvin said

Calvin took out the remaining Blok, and Antea took out the Hornets.

"Great you guys." Dennis said "That just leaves the Megatank."

"The what now?" Sam asked

Dennis sighed annoyed "The bowling ball with the eyes and the laser that sounds like a TIE fighter." (A/N: It does, listen to it the next time you watch it.)

"Ahhhh," Sam said "What's a TIE fighter?"

"Never mind." Dennis said

Sam went up to the Megatank. Immediately, it opened up and began charging it's laser. When it fired, Sam just jumped out of the way in the nick of time. It charged again, but before it could fire, Sam jabbed his claws into the eye in the center, destroying it.

"Great," Sam said "Now go deactivate that tower, Antea!"

"Ummm, guys?" Calvin said scared, the others turned around to see what had caught his eye

"Well," Sam said "XANA's sure been busy."

They were staring at a monster they had never encountered before guarding the tower: Its entire body was made of vines from head to toe, it had glowing red eyes, and a glowing red eye of XANA on its chest.

"Well, this shouldn't be too hard." Sam said. He charged towards the monster. But the monster, completely made of vines, just unraveled itself as Sam passed right through it. The monster then shot a vine from its arm-like appendage and pierced Sam in the chest, devirtualizing him in a flash.

Antea shot a series of energy blasts at the monster, but to no avail

"Antea, wait." Calvin said "I have a plan: When I draw its attention, I'll jump. After that, fire an energy bolt at it, and I'll do the rest."

"Alright, but..."

Calvin then jumped 20 feet in the air, Antea was stunned, but she remained focused. She then fired an energy bolt, which the monster easily dodged. However, as it was rebuilding itself, Calvin came down and thrusted his staff into its chest, which caused it to wither away.

"Calvin, how did you do...?" Antea asked

"I have no idea, now deactivate the tower." Calvin said

Antea did just that, the second of four towers was no longer under XANA's control.

Back on Earth, Dennis and the gang were already talking about their latest encounters.

"So you had a near death experience?" Sam asked Calvin "How was it."

"How do you think it was?" Calvin asked annoyed "Come on, let's go find..."

Just then, XANA-Rumiko jumped down from the ceiling in front of Calvin.

"That's impossible." Calvin said "We deactivated the tower."

"Don't you get it, Calvin?" Dennis said "XANA didn't possess Rumiko, he infected her with a virus, probably the same one you have."

"Can we fix her?" Calvin said as XANA-Rumiko pinned him to a wall

"We can." Dennis said "But it will involve sacrificing the anti-virus program. The one meant for you."

"I don't care." Calvin said "She needs it more."

"Very well, then." Dennis said "I'll set up the program. Ami, get her to the scanner room."

"Can do." she said "Hey Rumiko, remember me?"

XANA-Rumiko loosened her grip on Calvin, and followed Ami towards the elevator. Ami then hit the button, and they both went down to the scanner room.

Calvin, Antea, and Sam then walked up to Dennis, who was looking at the info that was given to them

"Needless to say," Sam said "We're gonna need more training if we're gonna stand up to those Unravelers."

"Unravelers?" Calvin asked

"Yeah, that's what I call the vine monsters." Sam said

"What about the data?" Calvin asked "Any good?"

"No." Dennis said "More like amazing! So much to choose from. What should we look at first?"

"How about the anti-virus for the scanners?" Sam asked

"Oh that?" Dennis asked "That was just unfinished data that XANA stole from me to hinder my progress. I sent Calvin to Sector 5 to retrieve said data."

"Now that I think about it," Sam said "Why would XANA be so quiet after 2 months?"

"What do you mean?" Dennis asked

"Well, think about it." Sam said "If XANA's so powerful, why isn't he attacking us more often on Earth than 30 years ago? It just makes no sense. It's like he's holding back on us."

"I can't believe I'm saying this," Calvin said "But Sam actually has a good point. Why would someone like XANA hold back on us?"

"Maybe we're just too strong for him." Dennis said

"Or maybe XANA's preoccupied with a bigger plan." Antea said

"What makes you say that?" Dennis said

"Click the file that says: IMPORTANT. XANA'S MASTER PLAN."

Dennis clicked on the file, and he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"This is insane." Dennis said quietly

"What? What is it?" Sam said

"XANA's going to enact something that will destroy the human race on June 30th of 2031 at precisely 22:30."

"That's 10 months from now!" Calvin exclaimed "What exactly is he doing that will take that long?"

"I don't know." Dennis said "It's written in that same Slavic language the Scipio files are written in. Again, Mr. Belpois would know."

"How long did you say the scanner anti-virus would take?" Sam asked

"A few months." Dennis said "At the very least."

"What do you mean at the very least?" Calvin said

"Well, a few months is only an approximate guess. For all I know, it could take years."

"We don't have years!" Calvin shouted "XANA's master plan is in 10 months! Can't you just make another temporary debugging program? You did it before!"

"Do you know how risky that is?" Dennis said "That type of program isn't as effective as you think. Even if it works, it won't get rid of everything. I was just lucky that one time."

"Look, XANA's not going to launch an attack anytime soon." Sam said "So why don't we just take a break from all this until the anti -virus is perfected. After all, we still got school to think about."

"Alright." Dennis said "But while we are away, I'll start working on the program as fast as I can."

"Good. While we're at it, how about looking at the Project Carthage info, starting here." Calvin said pointing to the file that read 'Fedorov, Deniska'

"Why there?" Sam asked

"Deniska Fedorov led the Carthage Project." Dennis said "Therefore, it will be the most informative."

Meanwhile in the scanner room, Rumiko just stepped out of one of the scanners and looked around, Ami, who was also in the room, was worried about what she would say.

"Ugh, where am I?" Rumiko asked herself she then turned to Ami "Imouto-chan, what is all this?"

"Ummm... You're dreaming." Ami said

"But this looks all so real, how can I...?" But before Rumiko could finish, Ami gave her a Vulcan neck pinch, which knocked her out in a flash. She then dragged her to the elevator and proceeded to take her to the infirmary.

"Whoa," Dennis said as the looked through the file on the computer. "look at this."

"Wow, a bunch of weird letters. How informative." Sam said sarcastically

"It's Cyrillic, you idiot." Dennis said "Lucky for you, I can read this."

"What does it say?" Calvin said

"Major General Deniska Fedorov was one of the most prominent figures of the Soviet Union's Red Army; rumor has it that he had very deep connections with the Politburo. He was a computer scientist who, in 1974, was the first to propose the idea of a virtual universe inside of a computer or a vast network of computers."

" 'Vast network?' " Calvin asked "But the Internet wasn't around until at least the mid-1990s."

"Apparently, only Fedorov knew of this 'Virtual Universe' " Dennis said "When he made the announcement of his idea in 1974. He gathered the top scientists of the Warsaw Pact nations to work on these supercomputers in each country. They worked in isolation, only the four scientists of each country were allowed to speak to each other, and even they worked in isolation. The project leaders of each country were relocated to neutral countries such as Switzerland or Sweden so that neither NATO nor the Warsaw Pact would suspect anything, only communicating to the other scientists by telegraph. "

"Wow." Sam said "That's probably more secretive then the Brooklyn Project."

"Manhattan Project!" Calvin and Dennis shouted

"What did the supercomputers do?" Antea asked

"I don't know." Dennis asked "They were supposed to block enemy communications according to Franz Hopper's diary, but after reading this, I think there's a bigger conspiracy."

"Franz Hopper?" Calvin asked "Dennis, see if you can find Waldo Schaeffer in these files."

"Right here." Dennis said clicking on the file that said 'Schaeffer, Waldo.' "Why, is he related to Franz Hopper?"

"No." Calvin said "He is Franz Hopper."

"Let's see here." Dennis said as he looked in the file. "Damn it, it's in German!"

"Let me read it, I'm half-German." Calvin said

"Is German the only other language you know?" Dennis asked "Just curious."

"I'm fluent in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, and Latin." Calvin said

"Sorry I asked." Dennis said to himself

"Wait." Sam said "Who speaks Latin?"

"Nobody, it's a dead language." Calvin said "Can I continue?"

"Go ahead." Sam said

"Waldo Schaeffer was born in Berlin, Germany to Holocaust survivors Julius and Meredith Schaeffer in 1934, six years before the Nazis captured them and sent them to Auschwitz. While his parents were in containment, he was raised by friends of his parents. He was an incredibly gifted child, he enjoyed playing the piano and his favorite subject was science. When the Cold War came and Berlin was divided, the Schaeffer family moved from East Berlin to West Berlin to avoid Stalin's totalitarian rule, especially after what the Nazis put them through."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Sam said "What does it say about Carthage?"

"In 1974, Waldo Schaeffer was chosen along with three others to work on a supercomputer in East Germany as part of Fedorov's Project Carthage. Waldo led the East Germany division, so he was relocated to Switzerland, where..."

"Wait." Antea interrupted "Who were the other three who worked in East Germany?"

"They're names were... Oh my." Calvin said

"What?" Dennis said "What were the names?"

"Benjamin Noel, Thomas Ackley, and Patrick Ackley." Calvin said "The same scientists who worked on the Scipio project with Franz and Antea."

"Me?" Antea said

"No." Calvin said "Your grandmother, your mother Aelita's mother, was named Antea Hopper, later known as Antea Schaeffer."

"But that means..." Antea said

"That's right." Calvin said "Franz Hopper is your grandfather."

"What else does it say?" Antea asked

"There is nothing else." Calvin said

"What happened to the East Germany supercomputer?" Antea said

"To this day, nobody knows where it is." Calvin said "But I bet we can find it. After all the three day weekend starts tomorrow."

"What are you suggesting, Calvin?" Sam said

"Tomorrow, we're going to Germany." Calvin said

"What?" everyone else shouted

"Calvin, the supercomputer could be anywhere." Antea said

"Then we'll start at the Schaeffer house, there should be some clues there. According to Mr. Xavier's files, the house has been abandoned for years, nobody has set foot in it. There's even been a court case to prevent it from being torn down."

"Do you even know where the house is?" Sam asked

"It leaned against the Berlin Wall. It shouldn't be that hard."

"The Berlin Wall was torn down in 1989, Calvin." Antea said

"Yes, but it's former location could still be found." Calvin said

"How are we supposed to go to Germany without any money?" Dennis asked. Everyone just stared at him "What?" He then realized the message that was being sent "Fine." He sighed "I'll pay."

"Then it's settled." Calvin said "Tomorrow, we leave."

Back at Kadic, Rumiko was lying unconscious in the infirmary bed and Ami was talking to Nurse Yolanda.

"So you just found her like this?" Yolanda said "Passed out and all?"

"That's correct." Ami lied

"Alright then." Yolanda said "She isn't too bad. When she wakes up, I'll let you and Calvin know."

"Okay then." She said as she walked out of the infirmary. As she walked down the hallway, her cell phone rang, she quickly answered it.

"Hello?" She said

"Hey Ami, it's me, Dennis."

"Oh hi." Ami said "Is everything okay?"

"Everything's fine," Dennis said "but I want you to pack up everything you need for the weekend."

"Why?" Ami asked "Where are we going?"

"Germany. We're going to do some investigation about Project Carthage."

"Germany? Really?" Ami said "What about our parents? What will they say?"

"I can forge us an alibi." Dennis said "Now get packed, we leave tomorrow at 5:30 am."

"Okay then, see you." She said as she hung up

Meanwhile at a nearby cemetery (A/N: Keep in mind, it's still October 9th), Sam and Calvin were standing in front of a tombstone. They had each left a flower in tribute, when Sam left his, he cried on Calvin's shoulders.

"He was a great person, Sam." Calvin told him "Don't you ever forget that."

"Thanks, Cal." Sam said wiping tears from his eyes "I won't"

They then walked away from the tombstone. On it read:

R.I.P.

Odd Della Robbia

1991-2029

A great musician and film director.

A loving husband, father, pet owner, uncle, and all-around friend.

You will be missed.

Wow. This is the longest chapter I've ever done (2,838 words in total). I just had so much to say in this one, I didn't want to leave anything out. Hopefully this weekend I can get in two more chapters. I leave Colorado on the 14th so my updates should come hopefully more often after then.
