A portal opened in Site 12 and Kat ran out followed by Aelita Yumi and Liz.
"Come on let's go." Kat shouted
Strawberry squealed while around Kat's neck like a cheer
Yumi sighed "Well here we go again."
Aelita said "It should be easier this time."
Liz nodded slightly but you could tell she was thinking about something and was a little depressed.
Aelita downloaded the vehicles and activated her wings and everyone headed toward the core of the site however Liz was dragging behind and Aelita noticed. She waited up for Liz to come and then said "Is something wrong Liz… you seem a little down today."
Liz said "No everything fine…"
Aelita said "If there anything you want to talk about, you know I have two good listening ears." Her elf ears twitched slightly as she put on a gentle smile.
Liz sighed "It's about Jeremy…" She said "I know you and him have a deep connection to each other because of Lyoko and what he did for you but… well…"
Aelita said "You've got a crush on him, and want to know if we, because of our connection, are dating."
Liz blushed and nodded.
Aelita said "We've been on a few dates but Jeremy likes to focus on his schoolwork and computers while I work on my music and recently ever since XANA came back he's been focusing on trying to reprogram everyone to the Internet standard. He's been busy so much so that we haven't gone on a personal date in a while now. I don't think we been on a date since the beginning of this school year"
Liz said "but if he asked to go serious would you…"
Aelita said "Yes…"
Liz sighed "I knew it…"
Aelita said "but that doesn't mean he will. When Jeremy in a focused mood he tends to ignore things like my life outside of Lyoko, For example I wanted to practice music with the Subdigitals but we had replicas and other things to do with Lyoko and I was fed up with it. Jeremy and I fought and for the day we wouldn't speak with each other but then XANA attacked and at the end Jeremy realized that I needed to have something else to my life then just lyoko and I accepted that as long as XANA lived and was attacking us we needed to work together. So we compromised."
Liz said "I see…"
Aelita said "It's alright by me if you want to ask him for a date or something…"
Liz sighed "The thing is I wanted him to ask me out…"
Aelita sighed "With Boys like Jeremy sometimes you got to make the first move, that's all I can really say."
"Hey Aelita Liz hurry up." Came Kat's impatient call
Liz nodded "Okay… Thanks Aelita…" She smiled
Aelita returned the smile "now come on we got a site to hack"
Liz nodded "uh huh"
Both girls made it to the core site.
Aelita landed "Alright… since I'm already at level three I don't need this battle but the rest of you do…"
Kat said "Yeah but there only room for two of us and I know who exactly is going to be left out…"
Aelita said "you do Kat…"
Kat said "Yeah me and Strawberry"
"you can do it if you want to." Liz offered
Kat said "I know I just feel like you and Yumi should do it…"
Aelita blinked "if you say so…" she said then looked at Yumi "you okay with it Yumi"
Yumi nodded "I'm fine with it…"
Aelita said "Liz?"
Liz nodded "I can do it…"
Aelita nodded "Okay let's get to work…"
Yumi and Liz inserted their cards into the console and the door slowly opened and XANA's alert sounded "Warning the site you're attempting to access is under the property of Xanadu Shadows Incorporated any attempts of hacking will result in termination of all intruding programs be prepared to face the darkness and your deletion if you fail." His dark laughter could be heard.
Liz exhaled but quickly psyched herself and entered
Yumi also entered

Aelita said "if you two need any support programs I've taken the Mud Golem, The Data Doc Ex and The Hack Program. The Data Doc can't be directly upload yet but the Mud Golem and the Hack can."
Yumi got thoughtful, She looked at the Kank then the Krab then she pulled out a fan and did her first turn in her head."
Liz said "What are you thinking Yumi…"
Yumi said "If I attack with Boomerang from D7 I can hit a Kank and a Crab with 10 points each and if I summon a hack at F6 and allow it to move to D6. It can take care of the Kank and I'll have the krab softened up for the next turn."
Liz blinked slightly "that could work… maybe I could do something similar using a Mud Golem."
Aelita said "how about this… Liz upload yourself to G1 and upload the Mud Golem to F2 then on your turn move to all the way to B1 and use Sword Dash to attack the Krab. Then take a few hits from the Krab and Kank and maybe the Tarantula but I'm sure you'll be okay then on your next turn retreat and use Heat Shot by then the Mud Golem would have taken care of the Kankrelat
Liz said "hmm… maybe Aelita… but wouldn't the Kank run from the Mud Golem"
Aelita said "It might… just focus on the Krab and deal with the Kank later it's not that strong."
Liz nodded slightly "Okay… I'll upload myself to G1 and the Mud Golem to F2." She stepped onto the grid and the Mud Golem appeared in a burst of data on F2.

The Krab shook and made robotic noises (20/50)

Yumi nodded slightly
Security First Turn
The Kank moved to C3 and turned to aim at Liz.
The Tarantula made a growl
The Kank froze for a second
The Tarantula grunted
The Kank rotated to face the Mud Golem and fired off a laser attack
The Mud Golem grunted (40/50)
Yumi said "It looks like the Tarantula gave a command to the Kank and the Kank did it… but why attack the Mud Golem
Liz said "you know… back at Site 10 Odd mentioned that the Tarantula went for the programs with the lesser amount of lifepoints… I think the Tarantula aiming for the Mud Golem…
The Krab moved to B2 and jabbed it's leg into Liz's stomach
Liz cried out slightly and took 30 damage (70/100)
The Tarantula moved to C4 took aim at the Hack and used Twin Shot.
The Hack took the hits and shattered (0/40)
Yumi said "uh oh… it just took out my hack program."
Kat said "I get it. It's softening up the Mud Golem for next turn… unless the Data Doc heals it the Mud Golem gone the next turn."
The Second Krab moved to B4 like it was moving away from Yumi then used Tri Laser on Liz Yumi and the Mud Golem (60/100) (100/110) (30/50)
Warriors' Second Turn
The data doc was about to use Hypo on Liz as she had more damage overall
Liz said "Data Doc move to D3 and heal the Mud Golem."
The data doc moved to D3 turned and used Hypo on the Mud Golem sending two green orbs to it restoring 20 lifepoints (50/50)
Liz nodded "I'll move to A1 and attack with Heat Shot to this Krab. She shot a fireball from her fist and hit the Krab dealing 20 damage and destroying it (0/50) "Got it."

Security Second Turn
The Kank moved to B3 and fired a laser at the Data Doc dealing 10 damage (50/60)

The Krab used Tri Laser again and hit the Mud Golem deleting it (0/50), the Data Doc (40/60) and Yumi (90/110)
Yumi said "now we're down to just us and the data doc…"
Liz said "you know if we combo the Tarantula Yumi we can get rid of it…"
Yumi said "that could work…
Warriors Third Turn
Liz moved to A4 "you know maybe I should consider having my Flame Circle active because I could have used it to attack all three of them at the same time destroying two and damaging one we could have ended this battle on this turn if I had that move active"
"too bad you can't switch attacks in the middle of a databattle…" Kat commented "but that would be so unfair I think"
Liz said "yeah… Clip was right when he said it is one of my strongest moves."
Aelita said "well that's why as you get more levels you get more slots for attacks."
Liz said "anyway I'll use Sword Dash and attack the Tarantula. She shot around the Krab and slashed the Tarantula dealing 30 damage (30/70)
Yumi moved to C6 and used Control and flipped the Tarantula and slammed it on it's head causing 30 more damage and deleting it (0/70)

The Krab turned and used Leg Jab on Liz (20/100)
Liz started panting in exhaustion. "I can almost not continue"
Aelita said "don't give up Liz… you can do this finish the Kank off and Yumi can get the Krab
Liz sighed "Okay Aelita" She summoned up some strength and ran after the Kank moving to A2 then slashing it with Sword dash dealing 30 damage and deleting it (0/30)

The barrier and the field shut down as the door slowly opened and sirens went off "Warning" came a female voice over the intercom. "Intruders have entered the secure area. System will go Hyper Alert in 60 seconds leave at once."
Yumi said "Time to finish this."
The group headed into the site and within a minute was met by the security force namely two waves of five Kanks, and five Bloks, two Krabs.
The group split up to handle the monsters as they got in range taking them down with near ease because they knew just to hit the weak spot of the monster and move on. The security was no match for the group and was taken down within two minutes leaving no monsters in local range.
Kat whined slightly in annoyance "is it just me or was that too easy…"
Aelita said "I think it was just you Kat… of course this is only a level one site it will get tougher the more sites we purify"
Yumi said "let's get to the tower and let's get this over with…"
Kat said "okay…"
Aelita said "just think we're heading to Google and the arcade afterwards."
Kat perked up slightly and said "I always love the arcade let's go."
Strawberry squealed and jumped off of Kat's shoulders and quickly ran in a direction that seemed away from the tower.
Kat said "Strawberry! Come back!"
Strawberry squealed and continued running.
Yumi said "uh Kat she's going in the wrong direction…"
"I know…" Kat replied "I get her and catch up with you guys." She ran off
Yumi sighed "Well Aelita, Liz let's get to the tower come on…"
Aelita nodded followed by Liz and all three of them took off for the tower.
