"I don't understand why they're trying to use the factory." Jeremy muttered.
"They know Naomi's been there before. They're most likely trying to see if they can recapture her the next time she goes. I've materialized monsters to take them down. I'll tell Naomi to teleport herself and the weapons while you virtualize and teleport the others to the factory." Xana informed.
Jeremy nodded as Xana ended the call. Xana continued to call Naomi.
"Xana, why ya callin me?" Naomi queried.
"The Sumeragi's using the factory to manufacture something. I'm not sure what it is, but one thing's sure, it isn't good." Xana notified.
"Thanks, I'll look inta it." Naomi thanked as she went to end the call. However, Xana began to talk again.
"Wait! I have a feeling that's exactly what they want you to do."
"Whadda ya mean?"
"The Sumeragi's using the machine room with the conveyor belt and I think they're hoping you'll try to check it out so they can recapture you."
"Darn, there won't be any point in the turrets right now. Does Einstein know?"
"He says he'll virtualize you and the others on Lyoko before materializing you in the real world. That way if something happens to you, you can be devirtualized in the factory or return to Lyoko."
"I can always teleport too. But yeah, who knows what'll happen if the Sumeragi gets ahold of the supercomputer?"
"They got ahold of it before, it wasn't good. You were being controlled by the Sumeragi so you don't remember what happened. Nova also took control of Lyoko which completely reconfigured it. Luckily I hid a tower from him."
"I'll call Einstein an see if the scanners are aight. If so, I'll teleport ta Lyoko. If not, I'll kick back from that."
"Suit yourself, I just thought it'd be best to warn you." Xana stated before ending the call. Naomi decided calling Jeremy would be the best thing to do at the moment.
"Hello?" Jeremy greeted.
"Ay Einstein, did Xana tell ya bout the sumeragi usin the machine room ta build somethin?" Naomi asked.
"Xana said he sent some monsters to eliminate the soldiers."
"Well let me know when the soldiers are gone. I'll put up the turrets on the quadruple."
"Will do." Jeremy assured as he ended the call.
Naomi ate a dinner of roast chicken, green beans and tomatoes with Ceasar dressing. She washed it down with a glass of watermelon juice, changed into her pajamas and went to bed. The next morning, Naomi was woken up by Mytyl bouncing happily next to her bed and Lola hovered around Naomi's head.
"Whadda ya'll think yer doin?" Naomi looked at her alarm clock. "It's seven fourty two in the dang mornin, go back ta sleep."
Unfortunately, Mytyl and Lola continued their 'party' regardless of Naomi's protest. She thought of throwing a pillow but was certain a scolding would follow.
They weren't kiddin when they said bein the youngest had its advantages.
"Lola, have you seen-" but Copen stopped when he noticed the miniature parade. "What is going on?"
"I dunno, but what I do know is it's gettin on ma last nerve!" Naomi growled as she put her pillow over her head while mentally praying for peace.
"Somethin wrong boss?" Lola worried.
Copen shook his head. Naomi looked at Copen and noticed he had some blood on his left cheek as she sat up and stretched.
"Lemme guess, Adept beat ya up?" Naomi teased.
"If you must know, the blood was from one of Viper's Maiden Blood gang members." Copen stated.
Naomi couldn't contain her laughter.
"What's so funny?" Copen wondered.
"Sorry, ma b. It's just, that Maiden Blood, is the name of the gang and hold on a second! Only I knew that info from the boss. OMG did you hack my stuff!?" Naomi commented.
"Since your database has more info on the Sumeragi I knew it would be of use to me."
"That doesn't make it right for ya ta hack ma stuff on any grounds!"
Mytyl and Lola looked back and forth between the two. Luckily, lunch time rolled around and prevented the siblings from bantering further.
"Is something the matter?" Nori wondered.
"Copen hacked inta my work stuff!" Naomi ranted after swallowing a bite of potatoes while pointing her fork prongs at her (seemingly innocent) brother.
Nori looked quizzically at Copen.
"I didn't do anything of the sort." Copen denied.
Naomi gave Copen a furious glare.
"That ain't true an ya know it! Ya said since ya knew ma database for work had more info on the Sumeragi than you did it'd be of use to ya!" Naomi yelled.
Copen rolled his eyes.
"Copen, is this true?" Nori queried.
"I can show you where the hack came from on my watch or Copen's computer." Naomi offered.
"The first method would be best." Nori stated.
It took a moment for the results to come up. But when they did, it in fact verified that Copen was the culprit.
"See? I wouldn't lie bout that." Naomi stated.
"No permitted use of electronics for a week." Nori informed.
Naomi bit her lip and snorted to stifle her laughter.
"I can't understand how you're enjoying this." Copen commented blankly.
"Ya can't go on any missions, no comms, no armor, no gun, no spacecraft and no borrowing Lola haha!" Naomi laughed as she fell backwards on her bed.
"This isn't funny sis."
"You won't last a day! Tops!"
"She's weird." Mytyl remarked.
"You should've seen her when we fought those zombies." Copen added.
"You fought zombies!? No way! I need to know every single detail. Time, place, reason, everything."
"I don't get it. He's supposed ta be upset an learnin his lesson." Naomi fumed.
"No worries, in a few days if not by tomorrow the reality of his situation will sink in." Nori assured.
Naomi sat at her desk when the room was clear of everyone -save herself and Lola- to tell the Lyoko warriors what just happened.
