"NEON BEHIND YOU!" A krabe fired are Neon, he created a darkness shield and deflected it right back at the krabe, not even a look of care or even remote worry on his face. Skylos flew on the Overboard and fired a light blast at the last Tarantula. "Alright guy's, I think it was Halo who has the lyoko ability today, so quick go deactivate the tower, Ponic and Rem can't hold out much longer against those corrupted tanks!" warned Keera. Halo deactivated the tower, just in time also, the tanks were about to fire on a building and crush Ponic and Rem. "Um, how do I?" "No worries, Keera" replied Skylos. "I got the return to the past preprogrammed. Return to the past now" Suddenly a large white light appeared out of the super computer, engulfed the planet and the world went backwards a day. The group was back at the factory by the end of this, "You know you could have done that faster." laughed Rem, Mushashi's answer was, "You're kidding right? I would love to see you take on multiple tarantulas, but they were no match for me and my warrior skills, OH YA!" He flexed a muscle. Ponic laughed, "Well don't get too overconfident Mushashi, XANA has been very active lately, and he's been really targetting civilian areas to try to draw us out, it figures to, he wants us dead, and well just now, he attacked Kadic Academy." Keera, clenched her hands together, "Driving 2 tanks into the area seems very excessive, I'm surprised there was no one killed." Neon said, but with no emotion, "I was thinking about this, it might be smart if we enroll ourselves at Kadic, we can be closer to any attacks and be ready for anything that XANA may try to use against us." Halo put her arm up, "Only 1 problem with that, we don't really look like normal teenagers." Skylos simply smiled and gave a wink, "I think I might have a way around that come back to me tommarow." The group exited the lab.
Keera smiled to the others, "I'm going to go into town to see what I can catch with movies, don't worry I'll keep out of site" she disappeared in her shadow. Mushashi went just outside the factory, looking up at the sky he thought to himself, "That XANA freak, has he never heard of Honor?! Hmph, we'll see who get the last laugh. Where the heck is Alice right now anyways, wow you say you've got to go back to Japan to get some herbs and you disappear for what...3 weeks?! And people tell me I take too long." Skylos was busy working in the lab, the computer had multiple little screens and windows opened on it, some of them read "freaky scanner, Halloween prank, Yisha's revenge." "Hm, I wonder what that means." Skylos opened it, in it was a quick diary of Yisha, "So Halo thinks she can pull a prank on me huh? We'll see how she likes a bucket of frogs in her bed, he he" Skylos just rolled his eyes, "People". Neon was sitting up on the roof looking at the stars, he then looked at the city and back at the stars he was thinking very hard to himself about his past, his future his friends. To accompany this he added a little rain to his general area, the feeling of the water hitting his face, it could be compared to the feeling of a feather running across someone's hand. It was incredibly calming, soothing, taking away from any troubling thoughts, Neon closed his eyes and allowed himself to submerge his whole mind into it. Ponic was back in the factory having the worst feelings, his alter ego Izerion was breaking his meditation, "No I am not you anymore, stay away from me!" "You know what it will be in 20 days, and you know you will lose yourself to me, there is no escape Ponic, I am your stronger self. YOU WILL BOW TO ME!" "I AM NOTHING LIKE YOU!" Suddenly there was a large pulse in his mind, Ponic fell unconscious temporarily, Halo was the first to notice, "Are you alright?" Ponic's eyes twitched, "Ya I'll be fine". Halo smiled then raised one eyebrow, "You do that again and I'll give you something to go unconscious about. Ha ha, was it Izerion again?" Ponic frowned, "Ya" he then got up, "I used to love Halloween, now I hate the very thought of it." Halo smiled, "No worries, Izerion isn't going to be able to...pull" she yawned, "Go to sleep" said Ponic. "Nothing is going to happen tonight." Halo went off to her bed near-bye the elevator, as soon as she lay down, she heard a frog croak. "AAAHHH!!! WHAT THE?!" Yisha stood there laughing to herself, "YISHA I'M GONNA KILL YOU!!!" Halo jumped up and bolted after Yisha. Ponic laughed to himself and fell asleep.
The next morning the group came down to the factory, "Well what were you doing last night?" asked Yisha. Skylos, replied "I've used the scanner's ability to virtualize you onto lyoko as a template to create earthly created images for you all. The images will be created by a similiar code of virtualization but used to-" "Stop" said Mushashi. "Raiders digest version." He smiled innocently. Skylos rolled his eyes, "I've made a program that should be able to make us look like any other human but allow us to keep our powers." "Well why not say that the first time?!" Keera asked, "Is it safe?" Skylos gave a crocked smile, "Well kinda, I haven't tested it yet." "Well only 1 way to find out." Keera went into the elevator and took a step into the scanner. Skylos typed a bit on his computer, then hit the activation key.

The scanner door opened, Keera's red hair was now in a pony tail, her pitch black skin was now an olive colour, her shirt was a green blouse with a blue sweater over it. She was wearning dark green cacky pants, her eyes were blue. "It worked!" said Keera. Skylos simply smiled, "I knew it would, come on let's get the others done." Ponic's human form was same skin colour to Keera, a navy colour t-shirt, jeans, brown hair that went over the top of his forehead and brown eyes. Neon had red hair, that looked almost as if it clamped down onto his head, his eyes were blue, his shirt was a dark red as well and his pants were beige. Halo's shirt was a bright red turtle-neck, her hair was still in long pigtails, and was blackish in colour. The really only difference was her eye colour, now blue. Mushashi's hair colour was blonde and long, it went around his forehead and the rest of his head, his clothes were a brown sweatshirt, and blue jeans, and green eyes. Lastly Skylos' eye colour was brown, the same darkish hair with a similiar style to Neon's, a white t-shirt with a black sweater over it, and army styled jeans. "Not bad Skylos" said Ponic. "Let's just hope it is believable." Rem remained at the factory however as the others left for school, something happened in the scanner he was possesed by XANA.
8:35 am, the school bell rang, Skylos had forged the papers and legal documents to get everyone into the school. Neon was at the front arches, leaning against a pole with his arms crossed, his eyes were closed and his head a little down. A girl about a year younger then him, putting her in grade 7 at the time walked by him. She had black hair, was wearing a black shirt, black pants, and black shoes. She also was Japanese, she gave Neon a quick look, then spoke "If you are looking for where to go, you can ask Jim" she pointed to a rather large gym teacher. Neon took one look and rolled his eyes, "And he teaches phys. ed?" Mushashi had overheard this, "Ya someone with a geography like that should be at the gym not teaching it! Ha ha" Jim poked Mushashi at the shoulder, "And what is so funny?" Mushashi gave an innocent smile, "Uh, the joke he just told" at this moment Mushashi was pointing at Neon. Jim looked at Neon for one moment, that bored look on his face, didn't make Neon look like much of a jokester, Neon then said with no emotion, "Why did the chicken cross the road? To beat up the idiot telling jokes about him." Jim laughed to himself, "Alright get to class." The 3 of them walked off to math class, Mushashi whispered to Neon, "Hey thanks for bailing me out there." Neon replied, "Think before you shoot your mouth off." He walked into the room and sat down in the back corner. Keera's class was in english, the subject of the day, Romeo and Juliet. She was sitting next to a girl in a pink shirt with a flower on it, the girl was nearly asleep at her seat. Keera gave her a nudge, "Hey don't you think you might want to hear this?" The girl gave Keera a sny look, and answered, "If this was worth hearing, they would have made an english version of it." Keera gave the girl a confused look, "But I thought it was in, oh forget it." She went back to her book. Skylos and Halo were in Mrs. Hertz's class for science at this time, they were learning all about the similiarities between protein synthesis and DNA replication, Halo whispered to Skylos, "Hey when does the RNA leave the nucleus?" Skylos answered, "After it-" Mrs. Hertz cut in, "Is through talking instead of listening to my lesson. Quiet down!" Ponic and Yisha were in gym class, "Climbing the rope wall is an art rather then an aimless climb to no where. As many would say her who climbs up the rope can achieve their goals of...of, that was I saying? Oh forget it, Ponic, Yisha up those 2 ropes see who can get up there first." They both took their spots, and climbed up as quick as they could, a tie, but when sliding down, Ponic accidentally opened a small piece of his shadow, thankfully no one noticed, his foot going into it. The next two up was a boy with plenty of pimples and black hair, as well as a nausiating voice, and another boy with brown hair and was dressed in green and orange. The boy with the pimples got up about 10 cms then dropped down onto the mat in a second, the other boy got to the top, then dropped down. The bells rang, next stop lunch.
Back in the factory the XANA sign had appeared on the computer screen, suddenly the door opened and a cat demon, Alice; a boy wearing gloves; Rem, and another boy with a sword at his side; Zach stepped out, with a XANA sign in their eyes. The one named Rem spoke "At your orders XANA, we will find and kill your foes!" The boy named Zach however stepped into a scanner and landed in the forest region, "We will find you child, and we will end your existance gurantee it!"

The group was in the lunch room, Ponic was eating Rosa's specialty of chopped sirloin. "For what it is, not bad, but this strip of meat is just nasty. Well, could be worse, at least it's not moving. But hey these mashed potatoes are pretty good." Skylos and Neon had the same meal, they were eating some spaghetti and meat sauce, with a milk shake. Yisha looked at her soup, "It tastes like dish water!" Keera was eating a sub, "You know I had this 1 person in my class, who took the paper she had to write on Romeo and Juliet and drew a picture of herself, if she was a model. Oh that's her" Keera pointed at the girl. Skylos whispered to Keera, "That's the principal's daughter, Sissi." Keera was a little surprised by this, and went back to her sub. Halo walked into the lunch room at that moment, "I swear, science is the main reason why kids beat their pillows with baseball bats." Ponic answered, "Um, kids don't tend to beat their pillows with base ball bats." "Well I want to beat something with a baseball bat right now!" Halo replied. Everyone laughed a bit at this, except Neon, laughing wasn't all too much his thing. Neon asked, "Where exactly is Mushashi?" On the other side of campus, Mushashi was up a tree grabbing somebody's paper airplane, he jumped down and gave it to the little boy. "Wow how'd you manage to climb up like that?" Mushashi thought for a quick second, "Uh" he looked around and noticed Jim with a ham in hand, "Ham, lots of it. Hey look what's that?!" The boy looked, Mushashi took off pretty quick, whikle he was on his way to the lunch room he noticed someone in the city. "Hey Rem! Over here!" Mushashi waved, and Rem was way out of site to notice his XANAfied eyes.
On Lyoko, Zach was walking in the forest. "Where is that tower!?" Suddenly a Krabe appeared behind him, took Zach on it's back and started walking. It stopped at a plateau, the tower was cloacked, XANA decloacked it. Zach took a quick look at it, it was glowing pink instead of blue. "It's protected XANA, I will keep attacking it till it gives way." At that moment Zach started attacking the tower with shockwaves from his sword. Meanwhile, at Kadic, Rem was at the gates and Mushashi was talking to him, "So where ya been?" Rem smiled, "I've been around, and actually I've seen some new things here and there." "Really like what?" At that moment Alice jumped out from behind a building, "Like XANA!" she dug her fangs into Mushashi, but before she could get much venom into him, Mushashi quickly flipped Alice over his head into the gate, the sound the hit made attracted some kids attention. Mushashi backed up a bit, "Well I'd hate to blow my cover, but that's what return to the pasts are for!" He drew his sword! Back off! Jim ran up at this point, "Hey what's going on you two?! Mushashi put that thing away, who are these-" Rem shot a star bolt at Jim, it knocked him and quite a few kids back. The other kids screamed and ran. The rest of the group heard this, "Come on" said Ponic, they ran out of the lunch room, and got to where everyone was just in time. Rem was shooting at Mushashi with magical lightning blasts. "Even with 1 arm you can't beat me XANA!" Keera fired a shadow blast at Rem. Alice then jumped at Neon, and Neon grabbed her with his darkness chains and threw her into Rem, not fatally hard however. Skylos used his light and pumped out the venom that Alice put into Mushashi. "These are our friends, even if XANA has control over them, it's still their bodies", pointed out Skylos. Suddenly more screams were heard, and an army of trees started moving slowly at the group. "Wow XANA must be running out of ideas to go to that" said Yisha. "Quick go to Lyoko, I'll stay here." said Keera "So will I" said Mushashi.
Ponic teleported everyone via shadow and they quickly arrived at the factory. Skylos got on the computer and started typing, "I found the tower, and dang XANA has Zach also, but odd Zach is attacking a tower that has a fire wall. Why's he going after that in particular and why does it have a firewall?" Ponic answered, "Well if XANA wants it destroyed we probably want it alive, me and Halo will go for the tower, you and Neon go after Zach." skylos nodded, and Ponic and Halo went into the scanners, Skylos then programmed the Code Lyoko ability into Ponic, and virtualized them into the desert sector. "The tower is 100 degrees North by North West of you, be sure to watch out for monsters." Neon and Skylos then went into the scanners and arrived in the forest, right infront of them when they virtualized were 2 mega tanks rolling to the tower, they apparantly did not notice them. "Come on, let's follow them" said Skylos. Neon created a darkness disc, and Skylos created a light disc, the followed the mega tanks. In the desert Ponic and Halo were walking through an area with many rocks around it. "Why do I doubt that XANA feels like playing nice?" asked Halo. "Because you know him well enough" replied Ponic, he pointed to an incoming Kankralet. Ponic shot a shadow blast and killed it, "I was expecting a challenge." Suddenly 8 different lazers shot right by Halo and Ponic, they narrowlly avoided beinig hit by them. Halo rolled her eyes, "You just had to say that huh?!"

"I don't see them!" said Ponic, he got hit in the arm by a lazer, Halo was hit in the leg. "Come on let's go before we get into serious trouble!" Halo and Ponic started running, when infront of them a block rolled by. Halo shape-shifted into a block also and shot it dead, she then returned to her normal form, "If there was a sense of smell here I could just sniff them out. Not that it would be a very pleasing smell! We've got to get out of this fire-fight." The lazers kept wizzing by their heads, after a quick count they figured out there must be at least 8 blocks, if not more, their ability to quickly fire multiple lazers at once made it hard to figure out how many. "There!" Halo was pointed at a surface layer just ahead of them, "It's got to lead to another plateau". "Well anywhere is better then here!", answered Ponic, and with that they dove down the surface layer and landed on the plateau. "Keep going to the tower", said Halo. "You can deactivate it, if the blocks decide to follow, I'll give them something to complain about!" "Be careful, after the fight there we've gotta have about 50 life points each now." Ponic summoned his and Halo's shadow then ran off in the direction of the tower. Halo watched the surface layer carefully, and shape shifted into a hornet to be undercover. Suddenly a block jumped down, and 2 krabes materialized next to it. Halo flew up and fired poison around the monsters then shot 1 krabe with a lazer, it blew up. The block fired an ice blast at Halo. In the forest sector Skylos was fighting against 2 mega tanks while Neon was trying to hold of Zach. Skylos brought out his light whip and went to hit the mega tank, it closed it's shell then the other mega tank fired at Skylos. His light disk took the impact but went out, Skylos fell onto the floor, and one of the mega tanks started rolling to kill him. He rolled out of the way just in time, the mega tank fired. Skylos shot a light blast the 2 blasts destroyed each other. "At this rate I'm wondering if there will be a winner." One of the mega tanks fired again, Skylos concentrated his engery and created a light shield, it deflected the blast right back, but the blast was weakened it didn't destroy all the life points of the tank.
Zach swung his sword at Neon. "You used to serve XANA, now you will pay for betraying him!" Neon created a darkness chain and wrapped it around the sword, "XANA is manipulative, I don't serve only." He swung around, dragging Zach with it, Zach hit a tree. "That's all you are good for, A SERVANT!" Zach shot a blast into the floor, Neon was hit and went backwards, Zach then ran up to stab his sword into him. As it went in suddenly Neon turned into darkness, the real Neon was behind him and fired a bolt of darkness like electricity that was circling around him, Zach absorbed it with his sword but the shockwave pushed him back. Neon created another chain and swung it at Zach, "I have better things to do then try to reason with you XANA, let's just hurry this up." The chain wrapped around Zach's sword and suddenly grew spikes out of it. The sword turned black and an explosion of darkness came off of it. Zach was knocked backwards but while in the air put his hand out, the sword suddenly sent electricity at Neon down the chain, Neon was hit as well. Both at 15 life points each, 1 more hit and it would be the end for one of them. By now Skylos had destroyed 1 of the mega tanks, the last one was still firing, and it's back shot was hitting the tower, suddenly the firewall caved and the tower's colour became blue. Zach looked, "Victory is in our grasp now Neon!" He ran at him, jumped upwards very high and went down at extreme speed sword pointed at Neon. Neon quickly created a darkness shield, the result of the two power hitting each other was a shockwave, this distracted Skylos for a second, he turned and the mega tank shot and devirtualized him. "Ah Neon!" At Kadic, Mushashi was deflecting the hits that Rem was shooting at him, he whispered to Keera, "I can't return fire without causing serious harm to him what is taking everybody so long?!" Keera answered, "You think fighting off a crazed cat demon and having to hold back is easy!" Alice jumped at Keera at this point, Keera put a shadow blast in her hand and used it to deflect Alice. "Opps" Alice got up, "Big opps" she pointed behind Keera, Keera turned around a tree's branch suddenly swung and hit her across the face, Alice lunged at Keera again, Keera dropped into her shadow, then popped up in Mushashi's, "They better hurry it up, I can fight a tree, but the two of them alone not sure!" Mushashi smiled. "Well I say it's time for some tree trimming, cover me!" Mushashi jumped up and pulled out a second katana, he started swinging around, jumping from tree to tree, chopping off branches as fast as he could. Rem then shot a star blast at Keera, Keera summoned a shadow to take the hit, as it is Rem's fist glowed, when the star blast hit he popped up infront of Keera and punched her into Alice, Alice dug her venom into Keera. "Ah!" Mushashi, distracted for a quick second was suddenly hit in the ribs by a tree, dropped his katanas, it grabbed his arms and legs, and they started to pull.
Ponic arrived at the tower, at this point. "Too easy" Suddenly the ground from under him started to dissipear. "WOW!" Ponic continued to run to the tower, suddenly he felt an earth quake the ground around him split apart. And a swarm of hornets flew at Ponic. Suddenly one of the hornets turned on the other one, it was Halo she escaped the blocks and Krabes. Ponic sent his 2 shadows up after the hornets, then dropped into his shadow, just in time before the ground under him dissipeared, he arrived in the tower's shadow then entered into the tower. Ponic ran into the middle and started floating up to the second platform. In the forest region Neon and Zach were still fighting, neither one of them apparantly making success, and the mega tank was continuing to fire on the tower, it was starting to collapse, it could only take a few more shots. On earth, the tree roots continued to pull at Mushashi's limbs, blood was coming out of his arms and legs as his bones were slowly being shattered, Keera was also beginning to die from the poison, at that moment Ponic hit the interface. "Ponic...Code...LYOKO" the tower was deactivated. Ponic called to Skylos, "Quickly launch a return to the past!" Skylos hit the activation key, and the world went backwards a day. The group was in the lunch room, this time all of them, including a no longer possesed Zach, Rem or Alice, and disguised aswell. Alice looking like a school girl, Zach wearing a navy blue hoodie, and jeans, and Rem wearing a slightly darker coloured green t-shirt with jeans as well. "XANA tried to drop me into the digital sea, why?" asked Ponic. "No idea, he didn't tell us anything, I don't even remember being possesed" answered Rem. "Dang, I can't believe he got me like that, it is so on!" said Zach he put a fist into his palm. Skylos then did a slight nod, "If XANA wants to drop you into the digital sea, he's got a reason for sure Ponic, just be careful when you go to Lyoko." "Aren't I always?" asked Ponic jokingly. Skylos laughed a bit, "Ya that's what worries me"

Skylos was working in his room, when he heard a knock at the door. "Come in" Yisha walked in, "Hey Skylos, what's up?" "Nothing much, with all the attacks going on from XANA I figured it might be smart if we have something that might slow him down when he attacks." "A what?" Skylos smiled then answered, "After the incident with the fire walled tower last night, it got me thinking, XANA apparently can't pass extremly large and strong firewalls right now. So I analyzed the firewall's remains and I think I might have created a program that sort of blocks XANA from entering his attacks into the real world, at least temporarily. To give us more time to bolt it to the factory." Yisha had a shocked look on her face, "Wow, will it work?" At this point Skylos gave a slightly crooked smile, "Well, I'm not sure just yet, a program of this magnitude is going to need an activated tower, even just for a minute, once it starts functioning I can release it across Lyoko. The only catch is I'm more then certain XANA will try to stop us." "Ya, like he always does, and always loses!" laughed Yisha. Skylos' alarm clock started beeping at this point, "Oh time for history class" Yisha rolled her eyes, "Ya um, that's what I wanted to talk to you about, I kinda didn't study for the test." Skylos laughed, "Well now you've got a problem." They left for their class, and Skylos left his computer running. On the other side of the campus, Sissi was being chewed out by her father, "I pushed you ahead 1 year in English because you were getting top grades Sissi! What is going on?! You are already starting to fail!" Sissi smiled innocently, Mr. Delmas continued, "Then I find out the only reason you succeeded last year was because most of your assignments you copied off of Jeremie Belpois! You now are going to have 4 hours detention for the next 4 days, and I'm returning you back to your original class, you are lucky I'm not forcing you to repeat the year! Now get out!" After Sissi left, Zach and Mushashi walked in. Mr. Delmas had stern look on his face, as the two walked towards him, Zach whispered to Mushashi, "Why'd you drag me into this?" Mushashi whispered back, "It was your boned headed idea, I just wanted to throw a water balloon at him." Mr. Delmas then spoke, "You two have apparantly." Mr. Delmas opened a report and read from it, "Threw 8 orders of Poutines at Herb and Nicholas, threw coca-cola at them, followed by a load of feathers." Mushashi and Zach both faught the urge to laugh. Mr. Delmas cleared his throat, "We shall see how much you like it when you have 4 hours of detention in the library, after school." Zach and Mushashi left Mr. Delmas' office then headed off to their history class, already late for it. Keera and Ponic were walking together on the campus, "I swear I don't know how people get through this school so easily." said Keera. "No what I don't get is how these people can get over the Kadic news, look at this picture of these two kids, poor guies were so late for class they showed up in their underwear." Keera almost burst out laughing but held it in, "Ya I know I was right there." They kept walking, and saw Sissi infront of them storming off. "What's wrong Sissi?" asked Keera. Sissi gave her a dirty look, "I'm certain you're the one who told my father about English class!" yelled Sissi, "What? How would I?" "You are definatly going to regret that Keera!" Sissi stormed off, Ponic whispered to Keera, "I think you've made a friend." They walked into history class where Zach, Mushashi, Yisha, Neon, Skylos, Alice, Halo and Rem already were. "Alright everyone take your seats, and seperate your desks for the test." commanded the teacher, Yisha shifted in her seat, "Dang."
On Lyoko an even was taking place. A little girl, no older then about 13 walked out of the tower in the forest that was being attacked, she looked around, and thought to herself, "Where am I, what is this place?" She continued to walk, and noticed a kankralet walking on a path infront of her, she went behind a tree nervous of what was going on, "What is happening here?" Suddenly the kankralet noticed the girl and started to open fire on her, "Ah!" the girl started running, as quick as she could back to the tower. At 9:50 the bell rang, signalling the end of history class. Halo went and asked Yisha, "Well how did the test go?" Yisha frowned, "I so failed it. But I think I got it right that WWI started in 1917." Rem cut in, "Um, sorry but WWI started in 1914." Yisha dropped her head down, "Super!" The group laughed, Skylos then got a look at this watch. "Oh cool my program should be done now, but there's still 1 more period left before lunch, we've got to run it, with XANA you never know when he'll rear his ugly head." Zach answered, "Well why not a few of us go to Lyoko, and the rest of us stay here and make an excuse for absence." "Like what?" asked Skylos. "Like food poinsoning, those eggs did taste off to me." said Zach. "Alright, I'll go, you come with me Zach, anybody else?" Mushashi threw his finger up, "I volunteer!" Yisha also asked to go, anything was better then having to stay with another class. "Alright, see you all later." The 4 of them ran off to the factory, Neon walked off to math class, Rem headed off to science. "Well we've got english now" said Keera pointing to Alice at the same time. "I still don't get why I have to take that class if I can read and write" said Alice, she laughed to herself a bit. "I've got gym with Jim, see you later Keera." they went their seperate ways. Ponic grabbed his gym clothes and went off to the change room, just before he walked in he quickly held his head, it started hurting, a lot. He came to in about 7 seconds, "You alright?" asked on guy going into the change room. Ponic stood up straight again, "Ya I'm fine." he went into the change room, Ponic kept thinking to himself, "Only 16 more days." At the factory Skylos kept working on his program, "Alright, get to lyo-" a window popped up depicting an unknown signature running from 4 kankralets. Skylos spoke into his mic, "Hello? Who is this?" The girl answered, "I don't know who you are, but I need some help!" she kept running, a lazer hit her in the leg, the girl's life points drained to 80. "Help is coming" said Skylos. "Quick get to Lyoko, this girl needs our help." Zach, Mushashi and Yisha all got to Lyoko, they virtualized and landed behind the kankralets. "Let's see if they want to play, 1 for each of us!" "Better do a head count again." said Yisha, "There's 4 and we're-" Zach fired a pulse shot from his sword and killed 2 kankralets. "Hmm, ok!" Yisha ran foward and shot fire from her hand at the kankralet. Mushashi jumped up and landed on the other one with his katana. The girl stopped running, "Watch out behind you!" she pointed at a Mega Tank. "Be careful!" warned Skylos, "She (referring to the girl) only has 70 life points left, 1 hit from that tanks and she's gone!" Zach, Mushashi and Yisha ran at the tank, the mega tank fired, Yisha lit the ground on fire infront of her, to keep her and the girl safe, Zach used his sword to destroy the backfire from the tank, Mushashi then ran in and destroyed it. "Wow, nice job" said the girl. Yisha turned, "So what's your name?" The girl answered, "I'm not sure, I woke up in the tower and I don't remember anything." Skylos was typing on the computer, "She's not in the data bank of transfers to lyoko, you must have been there when the computer was shut off, that could be why you aren't listed and you have no memory. Why don't we call you Katy, till we find out what your real name is?" "I like that" said the girl.
The group got to a tower. Skylos spoke, "Maybe if I activate this tower I can get more knowledge on who you are." Skylos typed in a code, and the tower glowed green, Katy then entered into it, she walked into the middle platform and suddenly started floating up. "What's going on?" she arrived up on the top platform, and an interface activated, with a hand pad on it. "Wow!" She put her hand on it, the interface read, "Aelita" then it opened up options. "Strange, I think I know what to do", Aelita started working on the interface. Skylos noticed, "Hey your life points are recharging." Aelita continued working on the interface, "There are codes for so many things on this computer." Aelita grew a smile on her face. Meanwhile in the mountain sector a group of monsters started gathering on a plateau, suddenly one of the towers began glowing red.

Aelita spoke to Skylos, "I just found out my name, it's Aelita." I think I can really know how to work this interface! "Can run a program?" asked Skylos. Aelita smiled for a few seconds, "Ya I think I can" she said. "Alright, here it comes" said Skylos. He started typing and hit the transfer button, the program started functioning on the interface and Aelita started to work on it. Suddenly Skylos' screen had the XANA sign appear on it, suddenly Skylos' body would start to pixelate, but it hurt extremely, almost like knives being driven into his body. "AH! WHAT'S GOING ON?!" Skylos fell onto the floor in pain. At Kadic the same was happening to everybody else. "Something's wrong, Skylos you ok?!" called Yisha. No response, "HEY AELITA, YOU BETTER HURRY UP!!" Aelita continued going at the interface, "It's done, that was easier then I expected." Suddenly the attack on the group stopped, Skylos struggelled to his seat. "What happened?" asked Zach. Skylos typed on the tower, "Dang! I should've seen this one coming! XANA is trying to take control of the program I used to make us all look human, he won't be able to control us but he is able to kill us as long as we are here on earth!" said Skylos. "Where's the tower?" asked Zach. "Mountain sector." Aelita then spoke, "I'm feeling strange pulsations, I think it might be from this XANA you are talking about." "Whoever it's from" said Skylos, "You've all gotta quickly get moving to the mountains, the program is working for now but it's only a matter of time before XANA finds away around it! Since we are using this tower, the next nearest one is ahead of you, about 400 mtrs away, get going quick!" The group started off. Mushashi spoke up, "We are going to need some help." "It's on the way" said Skylos as he started typing into the computer. He called Rem's cellphone, "Ya, alright, got ya Skylos we'll be there as soon as possible." said Rem. "Activated tower, Halo, we've got to go." "Rem, we can't just walk out." Rem took a quick look at Mrs. Hertz, "I've got an idea, can you be a rabid dog?"
"BARK BARK BARK!" Halo transformed into a rabid dog, foaming at the mouth, "OH MY WORD!" screamed Mrs. Hertz jumping onto her desk, "Call animal control!" Halo started running around the class room, but quickly peed on Mrs. Hertz's shoe, "That was for giving me so much homework yesterday!", thought Halo. She kept running around the class room then out the door, Rem stood at the door way. "Don't worry I'll get her!" Rem ran out into the hallway, "Alright classes are almost over, so keep run to Keera's English class and get her an Alice." Halo's head went back to her human form, "Hopefully the teacher left them alone when that XANA attack just happened, I'm surprised Mrs. Hertz believed we were just having muscle cramps." They bumped into Keera in the hallway at this point, Alice was there as well. "What happened? We ran out of class after whatever that was." said Alice. "XANA attack, we just need to grab Neon and Ponic." Neon was out on the campus, "XANA attack, where's Ponic?" Ponic was sitting in the infirmery at this point. "I'm telling you, Yolanda I'm fine!" "And I'm telling you, that teenagers do not suddenly collapse on the floor in pain, just wait here for a bit, I want to see if anything changes." Neon was looking through the window, "I can handle this." he said. Suddenly the room started to drip with darkness, the room was getting blackened slowly but surely, Yolanda was looking around very shocked. Ponic wasn't very worried, it was obvious that Neon was doing this. Suddenly the darkness swirled around Yolanda, Neon's face popped out, "boo" "AH! AAAHHH!!!" Yolanda out. Ponic was fighting the urge to laugh, and sat up. "XANA attack, let's go" said Neon. "Thought so, come on let's get to the factory." Everybody teleported there, and arrived in the computer lab. "XANA is trying to take control of the program I placed in all of you! We've got to stop him." "Hold on" said Ponic. "We've never transfered all of us to Lyoko at once, we don't know if it will have an after effect on the super computer." "Ya you're right" said Skylos. "That means some of us will have to stay behind, I'm pretty certain we can get another 3 of us there." "I'll stay behind." said Ponic, "If XANA wants me in the digital sea, no need to put myself in harms way if there's a way around it. Rem and Alice, I think you have a score to settle with XANA, you should go." The others agreed. "I'll go" said Keera. "Alright, get to the scanners, I'll transfer you, the rest of you all stay ready to be transfered incase someone gets devirualized."
Skylos virtualized the 3 of them onto Lyoko, in the mountain sector, the others were already there. "Who are you?" asked Alice. "I'm Aelita, your friends are fighting off hornets right there." she pointed. "Got it, we'll take care of them" Rem, Alice and Keera ran to the fight. However behind Aelita, she heard a sound, she quickly turned to find an eight legged monster coming at her. "What is that?" It opened it's mouth and fired lazers.

"AH!" Aelita ducked at 4 lazers shot over her head, the lazers flew and hammered into Zach in the back. "What the!" Zach was devirtualized. The spider then fired a net at Aelita, it landed on her, and stuck her to the floor, it prepared to fire it's lazers, Alice then landed on it, and dug her claws into the creatures target, it exploded, but released 2 Kankralets. 2 shadow blasts flew at them and killed them, Keera blew on her fingers, "Sad monsters." "Don't get to comfortable" warned Skylos, "You've got another swarm of hornets coming in." Yisha had fired twisting around her, "This is unreal, it's insane!!!" she let loose her fire and wiped out the hornet, that's when the next swarm came out from behind the mountains, they fired poison at the group. "Guies! Forget the monsters, the tower is right below you, and you better hurry, the program is starting to lose it's power, XANA is going to break through!" "Get ready Neon, I'm sending you in, in place of Zach" said Skylos. "Transfer, scanner, virtualization!" Neon arrived behind Aelita. "They can deal with the monsters, you and me are going to deactivate that tower." Aelita nodded, Neon placed darkness under them and they jumped off the side of the path. They landed on the platform under them, Neon's darkness took the impact, Aelita took at look at the pulsations, "Right there see? They are pointing to the tower, in that direction." Neon looked hard, in the distance, "I can see it's red colour, let's go." What Neon didn't notice behind him was 3 krabes and a spider following. Back on Earth, Skylos' screen started giving an emergency alert. "Bad news, the program just died." Their legs started pixelizing, then the pain happened, Zach, Skylos, Ponic, and Halo fell on the floor, the pain was overwhelming! "What is that?" Halo very briefly saw an image of something or someone on the lab wall, it quickly dissipeared, and she was to preoccupied with her pain to notice it. On lyoko, the hornets fired a ring of poison around everybody. "I've got this one." said Yisha with a wink, she shot fire around the poison, Keera then summoned as many shadows she could, a total of 5/8 of the hornets, and had them attack the hornets. Mushashi in the chaos then jumped up and sliced 2 of them dead, Rem then got 4 of them by shooting a star attack at them, the shadows got the remainder, in total all 8 were killed by all of this. "Let's get to Aelita and Neon" said Keera, the 3 of them jumped down. They landed, sadly the jump brought each of them down by 20 life points, Keera now with 60, Yisha with 40, Rem with 45 and sadly Mushashi with 0. He devirtualized, the group kept running to the tower. Aelita and Neon were already there, Neon had created a wave of darkness and consumed the spider and it's kankralets, 1 krabe was also damaged, the last one then shot at Neon. It hit him in the arm, the other shot at Neon in the leg. Neon then placed up his darkness disc infront of them then shot it at one it died, then darkness came up from the floor like a blade and destroyed the last krabe. Aelita entered into the tower, and typed in the "Code LYOKO" the tower deactivated then the return to the past went off.
The group found themselves at 3rd period lunch, Halo was looking around. "I just can't shake the feeling that I saw someone in the lab during XANA's attack." "You were in a load of pain Halo, maybe you just thought you did." answered Rem. "I hope you're right, if you aren't who knows what that could mean. On a lighter note though, looks like we've got a new friend. Where's Skylos, Ponic and Neon anyways?" asked Halo. "Skylos is talking with Aelita, Ponic and Neon are in the forest." Ponic was breaking a few twigs, "Pretty close call, Neon can I ask you a question?" Neon nodded. "You know XANA first hand, if Halo saw someone in the factory what do you think it could mean? And why would XANA want me in the digital sea?" Neon looked up at the sky for a minute, he had a serious look on his face, the thought of what it was like when he had to serve XANA, not the highlight of his life for him, he then looked back at Ponic and said very calmly, "Not sure, you can't gain entry into XANA's mind, he's always got something-" Neon stopped mid sentence then stood up, "Did you hear that?" Ponic looked around, "What?" Neon narrowed his eyes, he had heard something moving in the forest, and saw a silouette of a figure skuling in the dark, Neon put his hands together with his trigger fingers up, darkness swirled around his body, he then released it all at once. It went around the forest, suddenly Neon opened his eyes. "XANA has a servant in the forest here." Ponic took a quick look around, "Then we better not stay, let's go." As Ponic put his hand up a knife flew into it, with such force it sent his arm into a tree, Neon look at Ponic for a moment, a chain flew at him from behind, Neon's darkness rose up, "No one touches my friends!" The darkness flew back and hammered into the man. The man had dark brown hair with the XANA symbol in his eyes, he was wearning grey jeans, with a belt, that had blades and knifes on it, he had on a black shirt with a red XANA symbol in the middle, on his shoulders with pads with 2 spikes on top, and on the end of his sleeve were 2 red XANA symbols. He growled and waved his hand over one of them, Neon's darkness had purple electricity swirl around it. "XANA will kill you for your betrayal!" The wave of darkness shot back at Neon, Neon couldn't directly take control over it, so he shot a chain onto the tree branch up top did a flip and landed behind it. "Back off, before I get really angered." Neon fired 2 chains at the man, the man put his arm up the chains were deflected right off. Suddenly the other XANA symbol glowed, behind Neon materialized a block, it shot 3 lasers at Neon, to quick to react Neon fell down. The man then walked up to Ponic, and placed a bag over his head.
Skylos was typing on his computer, Aelita spoke to him, "It's odd, even though I deactivated the tower, I just had a strong feeling that XANA was still woken, but I don't feel any pulsations." Skylos nodded, "Alright, just incase I'll launch a scan, but I don't expect to find anything." At the factory, the man teleported into the scanner room, he took the bag off of Ponic's head. Ponic now had glowing chains around his legs, his hands had chains on them, and were bound behind him, and the chains were also around his knees, and the top of his arms down to where his elbows would be. These chains hindered his powers. Lastly there was rope in his mouth and duct tape over it. The man placed Ponic in a scanner and virtualized him in the ice sector. The man also came as well. The man then picked up Ponic and started walking to the digital sea. In the forest Neon was on the floor unconscience, with blood all around him, 3 burn marks in his back, and a stabbing wound in his side.

The scan continued working to find the tower, suddenly it crashed, Skylos' screen then went black. "What the!" Skylos tried to reactivate his computer, it would not reactivate. Jim then opened up Skylos' door, "What are you doing? You've got class now get going!"Skylos rolled his eyes and ran out, he bumped into Mushashi, "I need you to do my a favour" said Skylos. Mushashi nodded, Skylos continued, "I need you to make an excuse for me being absent in chemistry class. The connection to lyoko gave out, it all crashed." Skylos ran off at the speed of light. Mushashi headed off, just before he walked in he looked around, "Odd where's Neon?" On the other side of the campus Rem and Alice were going into math, Rem stopped. "Where's Ponic?" Neon awoke in the forest by now, his vision was going blurry and he could barely move, with all of his strength Neon shot a wave of darkness in the direction of Kadic, the wave of darkness arrived at Halo, it wrapped around her then started pulling her to the forest. "What's going on?" Halo was looking around, she arrived where Neon was "Oh my gosh!" Halo picked up Neon, and put her hand on a tree, she shape shifted it into a hospital bed, with a seat for her. She then put her hand on a large stone, and put it on the bottom of her seat, she shape shifted it into an engine and she went bolting it to Rem. Coming to the Kadic gate, Halo turned her arm into a tree trunk and broke it open, then slowed down and ran into Rem's math class. "REM!" The teacher stopped, "Halo, what are you doing?" Halo smiled, "Uh, look a distraction!" She ran grabbed Rem and ran out of the class, she took him outside to Neon. Rem's mouth dropped open, and he quickly pulled out a red potion, he opened Neon's mouth and poured it in. Neon's wounds and burns began healing, his vision was coming back to him and he woke up. Rem nodded, "It will heal you up Neon, but not atuomatically from the extreme injury, who did this?" Neon looked, even he was a little shaken from it, "Someone under XANA's control with a load of blades and daggers, also some powers, he's kidnapped Ponic." Halo's cell phone started ringing it was Skylos, "The connection to Lyoko is dead! Get everyone over here right now." In the ice sector, the man took Ponic off the block, and unwound a long strand of the chain. He dragged Ponic to the digital sea.
The group arrived at the factory, Skylos met them there rather worried, "I can't get a connection to Lyoko! Ponic is missing and, NEON! You're hurt." Mushashi laughed, "So the basic thing for us huh?" Rem ran up to the computer, "I got it." He put his hand on it and took out some blue solution, suddenly electricity went from his hand through his body to the solution, it then went flying out of the vile and poured on the floor. Aelita's face appeared, "Finally, all of you listen. XANA's attack was just a diversion, his entire attack the much bigger attack is still happening, he's kidnapped your friend Ponic!" "Wow that sneaky little creep, but how do we get to Lyoko if the super computer is messed up?" asked Mushashi. Rem replied, "I can get us there, but it will take a few minutes." "Ok" said Aelita, "I'll go and buy some time for all of you, but hurry." Aelita was already close to where Ponic and the man was. The man undid the chains around Ponic's arms, and hands, he waved his hand, Ponic's powers were completely nulled, and his limbs no long functioned, he fell down unable to move. The man then took off Ponic's shirt and placed a glowing orb on his chest, the orb sunk in, not completely though it's surface could still be seen, lastly the man picked up Ponic over his shoulder, "Say hi to XANA for me." He then threw him over the side, Aelita then cast her spell. She sang a land mass under Ponic, Ponic landed on it and Aelita lifted the land mass then lifted it high up, "What the?!" The man looked around in anger, the block fired a laser at Aelita. On Earth, Rem created a portal to Lyoko, "Just don't get devirtualized, I don't think I can guarantee a return trip." Keera, Yisha, Halo and Zach then jumped in, Rem had to remain to keep the portal opened. The group arrived just in time, the man was over Aelita with a large sword in hand ready to destroy her, suddenly a shadow blast hit him. "Not while we're around" shouted Keera. The man growled, "Take care of them" he said to the block, behind the group 4 krabes arrived. The man then closed his eyes and vanished.
On Earth Skylos was standing next to Neon, "Rem gave you a potion you'll be fine." "I'm not worried about me, I'm worried about who that man is" said Neon. As if on cue, a bolt of black lightning came out of the portal Rem created, it was the man. Mushashi got up, but before he could draw his katana the man used the hilt of his sword and hammered it into Mushashi's stomach, he fell unconscience from the pain. The man then went to behead Rem, that's when a wip of light wrapped around the sword and pulled it back. Skylos grabbed the sword, "I've got him covered Rem!" he then looked at the man, "I have one question who are you?" the man lifted his head up, "I am XANA's eternal servant and general, he gave me life to take it away from others, my name is Shroud, like the darkness." He then ran at Skylos.

Shroud put his hand up and the sword flew back at him, Skylos whipped his light whip at at Shroud, but Shroud put his sword up. The light whip wrapped around it then shattered. Shroud put his sword down then fired a pulse into the floor at Skylos, Skylos put his hands on the floor, light went all around his body, then released into the floor, the pulse was destroyed, but during the chaos a knife went into Skylos' arm. Shroud smiled evilly, "My blades will break your body in to, consider this your first cut of many!" Shroud then put his hands behind his back, when he brought them back out he had knifes in between the creases of his fingers and hand, he threw for a total of 8 knifes, he threw 1 at Neon, 2 at Rem, and the rest at Skylos. "Rem, Neon watch out!" Skylos put his hands up and placed a light shield in front of both of them, but the other 5 knifes went into Skylos' chest, he should have died but the armour that he wore protected him from the knifes going into his heart and his lungs. Though they did scratch his skin a bit, Skylos pulled them out of his armour, "You'll need to learn new tricks." Shroud ran at Skylos, "All armour has it's weak points and I will fine yours!" Shroud flipped up and over Skylos he landed behind him and kicked him in the back, Skylos went forward, then Shroud looked at Neon, he picked up on of the knifes. "XANA wants you dead, and I will accomplish it." Neon was not strong enough to fight back right now, but an orb of light hit Shroud in the back, leaving a burn mark on him, Shroud turned to see Skylos clenching his teeth in anger. "No one, but no one touches my cousin!" He ran at Shroud and pushed him into the elevator, it began going up. Neon put his head up, and coughed, "Rem send me to Lyoko." Rem looked back at Neon, "I can't, you're too weak if you get devirtualized-" Neon was already standing up but was hunched over a bit and leaning on the wall, "I know the dangers, but Shroud is more dangerous, our friends need help and I am going!" Neon walked forward as best as he can, Rem nodded, as if to say "good luck" Neon nodded back then went into the portal, when he arrived in Lyoko, the fight was taking place ahead of him. He heard Rem's voice, "Remember if you get devirtualized there's no way of knowing if you will return through the portal, so be careful, and be quick this is becoming very difficult to keep the portal open!" Neon put a hand on his side and started walking to the group, he could see the chaos going on. At the factory the elevator opened on the top floor, Skylos and Shroud went flying out. Shroud put 1 hand inside his black cloack when he took it out he was holding a chain, he whipped it at Skylos. Skylos jumped to the side to avoid being hit by it, he knew what it was it was in one of his books. The chain was a power nuller, it would disrupt the ability for one to use their powers, the very reason why Shroud wrapped Ponic in them, once they got on Lyoko, XANA no longer needed them. Shroud threw 3 needles at Skylos, Skylos' hands glew bright yellow he grabbed them and threw them back, Shroud deflected them. Skylos then put his hands in his pocket, he brought them out, and on them were clawed gauntlets, Skylos jumped at Shroud, Shroud put up his arm, Skylos jumped right into his arm, with the metallic sleeve the XANA symbol on it began glowing, Shroud's hands suddenly had clawed gauntlets on them as well. On Lyoko Ponic scrapped off the tape on his mouth and spat out the rope, he screamed down, "Keera, krabe behind you! Zach Blocks incoming, Yisha incoming spiders protect Aelita, Halo AH!" a krabe started shooting at the land mass Ponic was on, "I could use some help here, remember I can't move anything from the neck down." Halo looked at the krabe, she changed into an eagle and dug her claws into the krabe's target, "You'll be safer up there." said Halo, "We'll get you as soon as the tower is deactivated." Ponic answered, "Take your time no hurry here." Halo went Cheetah, growled and lunged at the blocks.
Keera was hit in the leg by a lazer from a kankralet, she fired a shadow blast and it dodged it, "What is with me today?" A sword suddenly went into the kankralet Zach pulled it out, "That's how it's done. Is that all of them?" They turned and saw 2 hornets shoot and break the land mass Ponic was on, he started falling, Yisha shot fire at one, and Keera shot the other with shadow. Ponic already was falling, but suddenly a darkness chain wrapped around him and pulled him in, Ponic stopped falling and Neon pulled him in, "You alright?" Ponic smiled, "Been better." Neon then looked at the others, "Go get that tower down, I'll stick around with Ponic." They others all went for the tower, Neon unwrapped the chain from Ponic and looked around, he sat down and took a look at the orb on Ponic's chest. "What is that?" Neon asked. Ponic would have shruged but he couldn't move his shoulders, "I don't know, that man put this orb on me after he stopped my control over my limbs. I don't think it feels like coming off." On Earth Skylos and Shroud were still fighting with their gauntlets they had cuts and wounds all over each other, Skylos' blood was red like anyone else, and Shroud's was green. Skylos had scratched wounds on some of his back, his chest, his arms and his shins. Shroud had cuts on his higher arms, his face and his thighs. They jumped at each other one more time, Shroud cut Skylos' high left arm, you could see the blood coming right out of it, and the skin torn to shreds, Skylos' right arm had a large gash right down it with blood coming out of it all over. Shroud's right leg had 4 gashes on it and were bleeding incredibly, and his chest was also bleeding. Shroud looked at Skylos panting, "This has just become a question of who can last longer." Shroud's opened his hand, purple electricity came out of his palm and wizzed at Skylos, Skylos opened his eyes wide, there was no telling if he would survive a strong attack, he moved his hand infront of him, and a large wave of light went infront of it, it absorbed the electricity then he shot it at Shroud, Shroud was hit by it and went backwards. Skylos then ran at Shroud with his gauntlets out, Shroud reached for a blade, he thought to himself, "I know where your weakness in your armour lies!" Skylos went to drive his gauntlets into Shroud, but Shroud pulled out a knife and implanted it into Skylos' stomach, Skylos collapsed, Shroud took a look at himself, one gauntlet went into his side tearing at his ribs and ripping the skin to pieces, the other gauntlet had chopped his right arm off, he also fell unconscience. The group by now had finally arrived at the tower on Lyoko, Aelita entered the "Code LYOKO". "It's done Rem, quickly launch a return to the past." The super computer came online after the tower was deactivated, "Ok but how?" Aelita nodded, "I've been studying the super computer I'll guide you." Rem entered it in, the return to the past began, they made it just in time. The group was in the factory after all of this, Keera spoke some words in shadow weilder and casted a spell, Rem also casted a spell and tried to use some potion, they were both trying to get the orb out of Ponic's chest, nothing worked. Skylos then sent Ponic to a scanner, he did a quick scan. Nodded then spoke, "I've got it, XANA wants something burring inside of you, Ponic. He can't just pull it out so he had to stick that orb in you, and he needs to throw you into the digital sea to be certain that he can get whatever he wants out of you." Ponic put his hand on the orb, then put his shirt on, "Well you can't see it under this, as long as no one notices it when I'm in gym class I should be fine." "Don't go swimming either" joked Mushashi. Ponic laughed a bit, Yisha then spoke, "There is still that Shroud guy." Skylos twitched just thinking about him, Aelita then came on the screen. "I've got a bio up on him" she said, "XANA has manufactured a leader for his monsters and his strategies who can go to Earth and back to Lyoko as he pleases, he's also well aquainted with each of your powers and knows how to compensate." The group felt a little uncomfortable at this moment but didn't say anything, Mushashi was the first to break the silence, "Well we'll just need to learn new moves to catch him off his guard." Yisha then added, "Anyways it will be hard enough for us anyways, Aelita you really shouldn't leave the tower now it's very dangerous on Lyoko."
The group snuck back into Kadic it was 9:54 pm. Keera was in Ponic's room, "You gonna be ok?" she asked, Ponic nodded, "I admit I'm a little nervous now, but that's never stopped me before I'll be fine." they were about to hug then Jim knocked on Ponic's door, and opened it up. "It's 9:57 young lady, time to go back to your floor. You know the rolls girls are not allowed upstairs from and boys are not allowed downstairs from their floor stairs like places, or they will seriously regret their stair floor." Keera looked confused for a moment, "What?" Jim paused, "Wait a second.." he took a moment to catch his thought, "Just get downstairs now!" Keera laughed and got up, "I was on my way out anyways Jim, good night." She left. Jim then looked at Ponic, Ponic smiled innocently, "Hey we did have 1 minute left." Jim rolled his eyes, "Well, say hello to your new roomate." From that sentence Ponic dropped a book he was putting away, Jim continued, "Nick you can come in now." Nick was a boy Ponic's age with long born hair and was wearing black pants with a red t-shirt that said, "Nobody home, parking admission $8.00" Jim left, "I'll leave you two to get aquainted. Ponic quickly closed his mouth which was open for a bit, "Hey I'm Nick." he said was he puting his stuff down, "Ponic." "Ponic? That's a different name, what is it from?" Ponic shifted his eyes for a minute, "Uh, it's...Irish! That's my herirtage." "Irish huh, cool, my herritage is Australian, but that's way back, makes me happy I don't have much of an accent." He undressed into his boxers, "Anyways I'm beat, night." Nick fell asleep. Ponic got into his undershirt and blue shorts, got into bed then thought to himself, "Well this makes things difficult."

It was 5:50 am and on Lyoko something dangerous was unfolding, in the forest sector spiders were gathering up in the forest sector, Shroud was in the middle, "Be ready, all of you!" He walked to the edge of the sector then vanished in the transport that appeared, and was off to sector 5, lastly a tower near the spiders started glowing red. Aelita felt the pulsations in another tower in the desert sector, "Ah, what is XANA doing?" Aelita teleported to the forest sector, she arrived out of a way tower, and could see on the other plateau the spiders gathering up, there were already 8 of them and another 7 were gathering in, Aelita ran back in the tower. In sector 5 Shroud walked to the interface and began opening programs, "It's done XANA." Suddenly 2 other figures appeared behind him, both were dressed in dark black, they removed their cloaks, they were copies of Keera and Skylos, Shroud then put his hand out and brought them to Earth with him. "Seek out your originals, you know the plan." The Keera and Skylos copies vanished, Shroud then put the mic on, "XANA have the army ready, and I will have Aelita ready." Shroud then vanished and returned to Lyoko, in the tower, he was behind Aelita, poked her on the shoulder, Aelita turned and Shroud knocked her out. He then lifted open his hands and created an Aelita clone, then took her to sector 5. Back at Kadic Keera was just awakening, when she saw the copy of herself right infront of her. "Um hi?" said Keera. "Hi" waved the copy. "Um, who or what are you?" asked Keera, "I'm you!" responded the clone. "No that's not possible because-" the copy suddenly injected something into Keera, Keera fell unconscience, "I am you now." The copy picked up Keera, Keera vanished in her arms. Skylos was also just awakening, he was still half asleep when he sat up and rubbed his eyes, Skylos then felt a needle in his back knocking him out, the Skylos clone picked him up and Skylos vanished as well. Him and Keera awoke in Sector 5, their arms and legs were spread out and attached to long wires, attached to the blue blocks of sector 5, they had a band around their waste and one over their head, lastly there were wires attached to suction cups on their back, Shroud was there, he had Aelita behind him as well. Aelita however had chains on her hands and legs, then had a long chain around her attached to a blue block. Shroud snapped his hands, Keera and Skylos both felt a large voltage of electricity going through them, Shroud snapped his hands again, the ground under Keera, Skylos and Aelita opened, they went in and then they closed, the copies then heard Shroud talking to them "Master XANA wants as many of them here as possible, Ponic must be accompanying them, we'll be waiting." Ponic awoke at 7:00, he looked around Nick was still fast asleep, Ponic thought to himself, "heh, well better take a shower before he wakes up." Ponic grabbed his towel and went into the stall, he turned on the shower, as the water dripped on him, he put his hand on his chest, the orb was still there, absorbed into his skin and still mockingly remaining there, after about 10 minutes Ponic had finished, he put his clothes on in the stall, and walked out, when he got back to his dorm room Nick was awake. "Hey Ponic, what kinda breakfast do they have here?" Ponic took Nick the cafeteria. Neon was meditating at this point, Halo knocked at his door, "Come on Neon, if you don't hurry it up you're goin to miss all the good stuff, and they'll be outta eggs!" Neon opened 1 eye, "Just go Halo." he went back to meditating. Halo rolled her eyes outside his door, "Well who would accuse you of not being a morning person." She went downstairs, met up with Yisha and they all headed to the cafe. Neon finished meditating about 7 minutes later, he opened the door as Skylos walked by, and for a very brief moment, a chill went across his spine, Skylos noticed Neon's stunned look for the brief second. "Is something wrong, buddy?" Neon shook his head, "No". When they got to the cafeteria, Neon felt the chill for a second again, this time when Keera walked by in front of him, "We're sitting over there" she pointed and skipped to the table, Neon raised an eyebrow and walked over. Zach and Mushashi were having an eating contest, who could scarf their breakfast down first, Mushashi then smirked and flicked Zach's plate away from him, then he quickly dropped down his remaining pieces of bacon. Zach stared evily at Mushashi then said, "You forgot your eggs." Mushashi looked at his plate, "No I didn't." Zach then smeared his eggs on Mushashi's face, "Now you did." everybody laughed. Nick then walked up to the group, "Hey mind if I sit here?" the group stopped for a moment, Ponic broke the silence, "He's my new roommate." Rem pulled out a chair next to him, "Then come on in." Nick sat, what just happened? Mushashi answered, "This just happened" he had wiped some egg of his face and then smeared it on Zach's now, "Hard to laugh with egg on your face" the group laughed again. Neon even smirked a bit, he then looked outside and commanded the clouds to rain for a moment, "Go on out and wash up" he whispered. Sissi was watching them, "Look at them, who do they think they are, especially that Keera girl!" Nicholas looked also, "I don't know, I find that Halo girl very pretty." he felt a slap across the face from Sissi, "I'm the diva of the school, and no one is more pretty then me!" Sissi got up and walked over, she put her arm on the table and looked at Rem. "Rem, when will you dump this string bean mouse girl and notice I'm the one you want." Rem's face went confused, Halo's face went red, Yisha noticed then cut in, "Said the girl who makes tooth picks look fat." Mushashi then looked at Sissi, "Don't worry, we saved you some left overs." he flicked egg on a fork at Sissi. "Ah! Shut up you!" Sissi stormed off, the group laughed again, then the bell rang. "Time for the fun of history class." said Alice. They got up and all headed off. "Some of you, did very well on this test." said the teacher looking at Skylos, then walked over to Yisha and looked at her, "Some of you did not." The test was mark D-. Yisha mumbled, "Makes me happy I don't have parents." The teacher continued, "Now onto the roaring twenties, once the war was over..." the teacher began his lesson, Keera then whispered to Ponic, "I'm not having fun, and how can twenties roar?" Ponic looked at her, realizing she was serious answered, 'Both are just figures of speech, Keera."
At 9:50 the bell rang, "Class dismissed, enjoy the night off, because tommarow we are starting our research papers." Neon pulled Halo over, "I got a weird feeling when I saw Skylos and Keera today. I can't explain it but I feel like it's not them." Halo nodded, "What should I do about it?" "Go fly, see if you can figure out if anything's different about them." answered Neon. At 2:30 Halo met with Neon, 5 minutes before classes let out for the end of the day, "Got nothing, except Keera seems really cheerful and Skylos is very quiet." The bells rang, Neon and Halo waited for everybody to come, Alice was the last to show up, then said, "Hmm, where'd Ponic and Keera go?" Ponic was in his room, he had put his books away when Keera came in, "Hey Ponic, I was looking for you." "What's up?" asked Ponic. Keera came closer, "Nothing much, just wanted to be around you." she went to give Ponic a hug, Ponic put his arms but briefly saw Keera's eyes, the XANA symbol flashed in them, Ponic fired a shadow blast at Keera, she went backwards into the wall then pixelated. Nick walked in just in time to see her go into the wall, "Ponic what did you do?" Ponic screamed, "Nick watch out!" Keera put her hand up, electricity came flying out and shocked Nick, he fell down unconscience, Keera then walked up to Ponic, "XANA wants to say hi" she went to hit him with a shadow blast, Ponic brought out a tenticle grabbed Keera and threw her into the wall, "Ya but I don't." he ran put Nick on his back then dropped into a shadow, quickly he dropped Nick off at the infirmiry, then popped up in Alice's shadow. "Keera, she's possesed, XANA must be attacking." Keera came out of the building at that point, "Master XANA's waiting!" Alice jumped infront, "You go, I'll play cat and mouse with her." The group teleported out of there, Alice then jumped at Keera. Skylos got on the computer and started typing, "I'm ready." Aelita came on the screen, "XANA's tower is in the forest, I'll be waiting for you my friends, Ponic we'll really need you XANA has a load of monsters out and waiting." Zach, and Mushashi volunteered to stay incase Shroud came after them, the others got into the scanners. They virtualized, Aelita was waiting for them, the tower is this way follow me. She started running, they all started following, her, meanwhile Skylos was typing entering something into the computer's sub systems. Zach noticed, "Hey I'm not a computer wizz but what are you doing?" A shadow blast suddenly hit him in the side, Mushashi looked and a light blast hit him. They got up, "Master XANA's plan is unstoppable." said Skylos, he went back to typing, quickly finished then got up. Mushashi looked at Keera, "Where's Alice?" Alice was in forest unconscience, an unstable tree was beginning to fall next to her, it would collapse on top of her. Keera smirked evily, "Let's play!" She shot a shadow blast at them, and the Skylos copy fired to light orbs. Zach absorbed it with his sword, and Mushashi deflected the shadow blasts, Keera then ran at Mushashi and Skylos ran at Zach. Skylos' hands started glowing, he went to hit Zach, Zach doged it and Skylos' hand hit the wall burning it. Zach then jumped up and went to bring his sword down on Skylos, Skylos grabbed the sword and flipped Zach to the side of him, he then put on his clawed gauntlets. Mushashi went to hit Keera with his katanas, 1 down at her head and 1 at her feet. Keera grabbed 1 katana and sent electricity down it shocking Mushashi, the other she had a shadow go in front of her legs, Mushashi went backwards, Keera walked opened her hands, and Mushashi's shadow came to life and grabbed him. In the park Alice was just beginning to wake up, sadly it was too late the tree snapped and fell on top of her, killing her.
On Lyoko Aelita and the others were still running to the tower, Ponic looked around, "I thought you said XANA had a load of monsters here." Aelita smiled, they're right there, she stopped, there were 40 spiders infront of them and 20 krabes behind them, the whole group stopped, the krabes fired, 1 lazer hit each of them in the leg, the pain was overwhelming. "XANA has messed up the scanners." said Yisha, suddenly the spiders shot Aelita, she dissipated instantly. "She was a fake!"said Halo, the krabes and spiders started firing, "WATCH OUT!" everyone put up all the shields they could, Halo spoke, "Anyone got a plan?" Ponic nodded, "Ya leaving this spot!" he was about to open everyone's shadow but suddenly black smoke came down behind Neon, Shroud appeared from it. grabbed Neon by the arm and put a blade to his neck. "Hello everybody." They all looked, "LET HIM GO!" screamed Rem. Shroud shook his head, "Only Ponic knows how that will work, there's the digital sea, Ponic, your choice, your life, or the rest of your friends?" The monsters charged up their lazers, and Shroud brought his blade closer to Neon's neck.

Ponic looked at Neon, his friends, Shroud and at the other monsters, then at the digital sea. "Make a decision Ponic! Grr! Or I'll have them all killed right here and now!" The monsters prepared to fire, Yisha looked at Ponic and nodded, she sent fire up from the ground and burned Shroud's knife, Neon then kicked Shroud into the monsters. Ponic opened everyone's shadows, "Let's get outta here go!" they all fell in them as lazers wizzed over their heads. Shroud got up, "There's no escape from here, fan out and find them, if you find Ponic get him in the digital sea!" Shroud then became black smoke and flew up, the monsters split up. Neon had cloacked the group with darkness. Halo peaked form behind a tree, "An army of monsters, we'll never be able to take them on, and without Aelita we'll never be able to deactivate the tower." A lazer wizzed by, 3 krabes had found them, the darkness Neon cloaked them with acted as a shield as well thankfully, Rem fired a star attack at one crab destroying it, Ponic shot a shadow barrage at the other, and Neon grabbed the other with his chains and threw hard enough onto it's back to kill it. Halo shapeshifted into one of the moths, Ponic made a telepathic conneciton to Halo, "Do you see the monsters?" asked Ponic. "Yes, they are just ahead of us, Shroud is scanning the skies as well, look we've got to get out of this sector for the time being." said Halo. Ponic repeated what Halo said to the group, Neon disagreed, "Somehow I think Skylos has also been taken by XANA, and if XANA wants us trapped here I'm sure he's done something to the towers as well." Rem looked at Neon, "Then what do we do?" "We take down the monsters." Ponic looked at the digital sea, then got an idea, "XANA wants company in the sea, I think I might have a plan, listen up." Meanwhile on Earth, Keera kicked Mushashi in the face, Mushashi went upwards from the hit but threw his katana at Keera. It went into her, but she merely pixelated, "How is this possible?! You should've atleast gotten stunned, unless you aren't Keera." noticed Mushashi. Skylos had already gotten some hits on Zach, Zach's right arm was bloodied up, and when Zach his Skylos with his sword the same happened, "So plan?" asked Zach, Mushashi replied, "Ya run." "But what about the super computer?" "XANA isn't going to beat himself up, run!" Zach and Mushashi ran into the elevator and hit the up button, the elevator closed, Skylos and Keera both fazed through the door, the elevator began going up. Skylos aimed for Zach's neck and swipped at him with his gauntlets, Zach ducked, jumped up and pulled one of the gauntlets off. "Well this is real let's see how you like it" when Zach hit Skylos with the gauntlet, it left gash on Skylos' shoulder. The elevator opened, Mushashi jumped up and double kicked Keera and Skylos out of the doors, "NO VACANCY!" He then turned to Zach, "Aren't XANA clones allergic to water?" Zach nodded, "Ya but...oh! Got ya". Back on Lyoko 4 spiders were walking on a forest path, that's when fire hit one, darkness hit the other, shadow the third and a moth's poison hit the last. This got enough attention, Shroud appeared in front of the group, and had his army appear around them on the only 2 escapes. "Any final words?" Halo nodded, "Ya, NOW REM!" Neon uncloacked Rem, and Rem opened his hands, he fired a major barrage of star attacks, the other fired attacks also, it wasted the army in second. Halo went block and fired multiple lazers at Shroud. Shroud put his arm up he deflected most of them, but that's when everybody else joined in attacking Shroud. However after 1 hit Shroud dissipeared, but that didn't make any sense, Shroud's life points were still rather high. Yisha looked around, "I don't like this."
On Earth Skylos and Keera were at the bridge's edge, Zach and Mushashi went to push them in, but the two of them joined hands and created a funnel of electricity around them then shot Zach and Mushashi with it, they fell backwards and hit the bridges barrier. Keera giggled, "Let's finish them" however they heard a growl behind them, they turned to see two claws hit them, Keera and Skylos flew backwards into the river, and were destroyed by the water. Zach got up, "Alice we thought you were..." "Dead? I still got 8 lives left" winked Alice. "What about the others?" The three of them ran back to the computer lab. The holomap was still online when they got there, they saw everybody behind them Alice put on the mic, "Hey guies, you alright?" Rem laughed a bit, "We've been better, what can you see from your end?" Alice, Zach and Mushashi looked at the computer, and said at the same time, "Shroud's behind you." They turned Shroud was on a tree behind them, he waved his hand, the orb on Ponic's chest glowed, "Ah!" Ponic's vision went blurry for a second, suddenly he was no longer able to control his body from the neck down, he collapsed on the floor. Neon picked Ponic up on his back, Halo yelled up at Shroud, "How'd you pull that one off?!" Shroud smiled evily, "That orb in Ponic also allows me to have limited control when I'm near, now his limbs no longer function again, hand him over." Neon narrowed his eyes, "Think again." Darkness chains rose up from the ground all around Shroud they went down on him and started squeezing harder and harder, the group began running. Shroud took out a blade and put it quickly broke the chains, "Hmm, 40 life points down, 60 to go. Look at them run, I always love the hunt." He threw a blade at Neon, Ponic being on Neon's back saw it coming, "Behind you!" Yisha put up a fire wall, "Well where do we go from here Alice?" Alice looked at the keyboard, "I'm not sure, I wish I knew how to work this thing!" Zach looked at the keyboard, "Skylos once showed me how to find others, lemme at it, guies just try to stay alive." Yisha rolled her eyes, "easy for you to say." Shroud then appeared infront of them, "Going somewhere?" he materialized a krabe behind them, then shot a pulse at Neon, the pulse didn't drain life points but it knocked Neon back, causing him to drop Ponic. Shroud ran at Ponic to grab him, but Rem put up a wave up Apai, it hit Shroud, sending him backwards, reducing him to 20 life points. Yisha fired, fire at Shroud, Shroud put up his hand, grabbed the fire then threw it back, Yisha put up a fire shield and the blast burned out. "Alright" said Shroud, here we go! Rem fired an apai blast at Shroud, Neon grabbed him with darkness. Shroud's body grew spikes and he broke the darkness, disintegrating the apai attack, he threw 2 blades, they latched onto Rem and Neon's clothes pinning them to the ground, he then took out another to blades and threw them at them. Yisha burned the blades, and Halo jumped at Shroud as a lion. On Earth Zach was trying to type on the keyboard to figure out how to find Aelita, Skylos and Keera, "Is it control B? Ya" Mushashi jumped in, "No it's control C" "B!" "C!" They wresteled over the keyboard and instead hit control F, "Now look what you did Zach!" A picture of sector 5 came up, Aelita, Skylos and Keera's signals were there. "What, you mean us just finding them? Guies we found the real Skylos, Keera and Aelita!" Shroud threw Halo off of him, she went moth and spit poison at him, Shroud put his sword up and absorbed all of the poison, but a darkness chain wrapped around the sword and threw it into a tree, Rem then hit it with an apai blast and destroyed it, Yisha's hands were on fire. "You might be good 1 or 2 on you, but not this many!" Shroud put his hands on the floor, a large blast of electricity came out of it, except at Ponic for obvious reasons, everyone went down 30 life points to 60. The group got up, Yisha shot fire at Shroud, Shroud dissipeared into black smoke, "Let's finish this elsewhere!"
Zach then spoke into the mic, "The three of them, XANA is holing them prisoner in sector 5, you've all gotta get there." Neon created a darkness disc, put Ponic on it and tied a chain around his waiste so he wouldn't fall of. "We're already close to the edge of the sector let's go!" They got there quick, Zach typed in "SCIPIO" the transporter appeared and took them all to sector 5. "The wall's about to open in 3...2...1" said Halo, it opened up. The group ran into the corridor then to the holosphere. "Timer started, 3:00 minutes and countin." The arena's obstacle was that the walls, floors and ceilings blocks were constantly moving, "The key is ahead of us" said Ponic. The ground they were on started moving, Neon unwrapped the chain around Ponic, "You'll be safer if we are closer towards you." Yisha then grabbed Ponic and Neon wrapped them together by the waste. "Remember guies we can't get devirtualized, ready set let's go!" they ran and jumped to the next block. Yisha was having issues because of the extra weight from Ponic, "Yisha, I might be a ragdoll but I still have my shadows, lift my arms up." she did that, Ponic summoned everybody's shadows, "Let's go" they started flying to get to the key, suddenly multiple blocks started moving and Creepers came out very quickly from the wall to smash and kill everybody, with no scanners the end of life points meant no return trip.

Yisha put fire around her and Ponic to sheild them from the Creeper attacks. Neon, began firing darkness blasts at the creepers, he killed 4/8 of them, Rem then became a twighlight wolf, he opened his mouth and barked at them, this stunned the others, Rem then created a large star and fired it at the Creepers killing the rest of them, and leaving some collateral damage. One of the blocks then dropped from the roof and destroyed Neon's shadow, Neon began falling. "NEON!" screamed Halo, she turned into an octopus, grabbed Neon with her tentacle the threw him towards the key. Neon sent out a chain, wrapped around one of the ceiling blocks and swung forward, he did a back flip in the air then landed hitting the key with his foot. The room began shifting, "Incoming Creepers, one hit an it's game over" said Alice over the mic. Doors opened on two sides, the group ran from the creepers, Rem let out 1 more bark, stunning them then ran towards the elevator. "Here comes out ride!" They jumped onto the elevator, it twisted around the sphere and the door opened up to the outter area, "Hold on a second" said Mushashi, "Hmm, XANA's a liar, there's another area just under the sphere, the elevator should take you two it." The door closed then the elevator went around the sphere again but stopped at the bottom, an opening came up on top of them, the shadows lifted the group up and they flew into the room, then landed, the area was completely bare, and quiet. They looked around, Neon closed his eyes and put his hands on his temples, then a laser shot by, he narrowly avoided a direct hit. Shroud then jumped down from the roof. "Looking for someone? Skylos, Keera and Aelita are alive, you want them back give me Ponic." Halo shook her head, "I've got a better idea." she went creeper and fired lasers at Shroud, Shroud put his sleeve up, deflecting most of them, 1 hit but he only lost a few life points. "He's recharged!" "And you haven't, I can kill you all now, so give it up." Mushashi spoke into the mic, "Well you don't know us really well huh? We never give up!" Neon sat down, "Their aura signals are weak, cover me while I search for them" he went into a meditative state, Rem and Halo attacked Shroud. Yisha undid the chain and put Ponic down next to Neon, "Lift both my hands up and curl my middle finger." Yisha did that, and a shadow shield appeared around Ponic and Neon, "Good luck, both of you." said Yisha she ran to take care of the creepers. Rem began shooting apai beams at Shroud, Shroud put his sword up and began absorbing them, "Your apai attacks are pathetic, and so is Halo's attempt at sneaking up on me!" He suddenly dropped down, Rem's apai beam went at Halo, who currently was in Manta form. "WOW!" screamed Rem, he opened both his hands and quickly destroyed the apai beam. Halo flew up and began firing lazers at Shroud, Creepers came out of the wall and started firing lasers at Halo, Halo began dodging and made her human head, "Hey Yisha, if you are going to get those creepers, now would be a great time!" Yisha was shooting fire balls at the Creepers, "I'm going as fast as I can!" Halo turned and started firing at the creepers, she was also searching for Shroud, she killed 3 Creepers, Rem then suddenly saw 2 coming at him, "Sorry guies no atuographs" he fired 2 apai blasts and killed them both, he then noticed Shroud at the far off corner preparing to attack Neon and Ponic.
Shroud started hitting the shadow shield with his sword, Ponic looked at Neon, "You better hurry this up." Rem ran up and tackled Shroud from behind, he went twighlight wolf was about to scratch Shroud when Shroud got up and pushed Rem backwards, Shroud stood over him ready to kill him, he materialized his sword, positioned it over Rem, then 2 lasers hit Shroud in the back, "Ah!" He looked to see Halo flying at him, Shroud threw his sword, it cut off a piece of Halo's wing, Halo began falling, she scrapped across the ground, the Creepers started firing at them. Yisha looked, "NO!" She lit the ground on fire around Halo, it stopped the lasers but not Shroud, he put his sword into the ground and destroyed the fire wall. Neon suddenly stood up, he found them, Neon opened his hands, his hair started standing up, any baggy parts on his clothes were beginning to float as Neon charged his energy, suddenly darkness chains exploded out from the ground holding Skylos, Keera and Aelita. Neon clenched 1 hand into a fist, the darkness chains destroyed the machines, the 3 of them fell down, Shroud saw this. Neon then fell to his knee, drained to 5 life points, Shroud threw a dagger at Neon, then ran to grab Aelita and Ponic. Neon looked up and saw the dagger coming at him, he ducked, Shroud was running behind it, "No more games!" He picked up Ponic and started running for the exit, he also had Aelita in hand. As Shroud ran out, a rumbeling was heard, by this moment Keera and Skylos began awakening. Skylos looked around, what's happening, Mushashi was on the mic, very quickly he said, "Shroud had grabbed Ponic and Aelita, Ponic can't defend himself, some huge monster with tenticles is on the screen, the scanners are offline, everybody's almost out of life points and there are creepers coming at you all!" Skylos and Keera nodded, Rem was on his knees he looked up, "We're too weak to follow, go and get the scanners online, and grab Ponic, we'll stay here." Skylos and Keera nodded and ran off, the Creepers then emerged from the room, Rem went wolf 1 more time, this time with armour upon him, the armour opened up and fired 4 laser arrows, killing a few Creepers, Rem then fell down too much energy and too exhausted. Yisha and Neon put up shields, then they to collapsed from all of this. Skylos got to the interface, "I'll find the code for the scanners, Keera go get Ponic." Keera nodded, she summoned her shadow, and flew out the tunnel opening. Keera arrived in the desert, she could see Shroud ahead of her going for the digital sea, she went as quick as possible at Shroud. Shroud then stopped, he took Ponic's shirt off, put his two fingers on the orb, it began glowing then dropped Ponic. He then held Aelita and was about to stab her, Keera quickly flew in, grabbed Aelita and grabbed Ponic, Shroud clenched his fist, he threw a dagger at Keera, it hammered into her back. "Ah!" Keera devirtualized, in Sector 5 the Creepers destroyed the shield then devirtualized everybody else.
Skylos however had already hit the activation key, the scanners were back online just in time, "It's done guies, I ah!" a large black monster hit Skylos, the monster looked like an Octopus of some kind, it was on top of Sector 5 cluching onto the doom with it's tenticles. Skylos fell out of the scanner, the others were there also, a few out cold but there, Skylos screamed up, "Quick hit crtl F9, star then enter!" Zach did that, Ponic materialized just before hitting the digital sea, Shroud stood there, in utter anger, "NO!" he looked at Aelita who was just starting to awaken. "Plan B is already under way XANA!" he grabbed Aelita and flew off with her. Ponic fell out of the scanner, Alice, Mushashi and Zach were already in the scanner, his shirt on now, he smiled up at everybody, "Thanks guies" said Ponic, "Just in time, though I still can't move from the neck down." Keera rolled up Ponic's shirt, she looked at the orb, "It's no longer glowing." Her and Alice tried to help Ponic stand up, they leaned him against the wall, as soon as they let go, Ponic fell down, Alice caught him before he fell flat on his face onto the floor. "Nice catch, and nice shoes." laughed Ponic. Alice giggled a bit, "Why'd this happen, shouldn't the effect have worn off?" Skylos shrugged, unsure of what to say, "I'll stick around here and do some research to see what's up." Neon helped Ponic up, he put Ponic's arm around him, Keera took Ponic's other arm and put it around her neck, everybody went to the elevator and back up to the lab. Skylos sat on the computer and began to type, "This will take awhile, atleast the night." "Just put me down here." said Ponic, as Neon and Keera set him down on the floor he then continued, "You guies should go back, I'm can't go back to Kadic like this." Neon shook his head, "I'm going no where." The others agreed, Alice then continued, "Ponic we're all a team, we will all stay here for the night." Ponic smiled, "You're all right, but I think we are more then just a team, we are a family, and I personally could not ask for a better one."

The computer began ringing, it woke everyone up, Skylos typed a bit on it, "Well not what I would call a good night, but it will do, anyways here's what I found out. The last time this happened we deactivated the tower, the way I see it we either need to devirtualize Shroud or deactivate the tower to give Ponic control of his limbs again." Alice began getting up she was stretching a bit, and put her band on her back and pushed inwards, "What about Aelita? Shroud still has her." she said. Skylos nodded, "And that huge monster, how are we going to gain an upper hand?" The computer then opened up a window, there was a picture of a news women on it, "A virus infected all the world's communications today, shutting them down, not long after did 3 military jets fall under the same control, of this virus, the pilots attempting to gain command override were killed today, the security camera caught this brief footage before it was cut out." The inside of 1 of the military jets was shown in it were the pilots, the XANA symbol suddenly started to appear, "What's going on? I've lost control! Quick hit the command override, what the who are you?" Shroud appeared behind them he took out his sword and stabbed one of the officers, the other reached for his gun and fired at Shroud, Shroud put up his arm, deflecting the bullet right back at other officer, then destroyed the camera. the newswoman then came back on the screen. "Very similiar effects happened on the other jets, and are now under control of the unknown virus, unfortunatly 2 of the jets are bombers, they appear to be heading for Geneva where the world leaders are assambling for talks of tjeir strategies in the war in the East. These leaders include the entire NATO countries all assembled, the UN was to be monitering with long range voice to video conferance but with no modes of communication the Geneva convention is blind to the upcoming threat, more over the 3rd military jet appears to be holding a powerful experiment chemical nuke that was on route to a United States military base, it's destination is unknown, but if dropped this nuke may cause enough destruction to wipe out cities as large as Paris and New York combined, in 1 blast the aftershocks range is unknown but it believed that it would cause enough damage that would cover an area of the US eastern coats as well as disrupt eco systems in other nearby areas." The feed for the news station cut out. "XANA." said Rem. The group ran to the scanners, Keera, Alice and Mushashi went in first. "The tower is in the forest region, here we go. Transfer, scanner, virtualization! Alright next." Neon and Zach loaded Ponic into the scanner, "Shroud's in for a rude awakening" said Zach, he walked into the other scanner, Skylos virtualized him, "Alright, the tower will be in front of you." "Remind me again why we had to bring Ponic to Lyoko in his state as well?" asked Mushashi. "Cause Ponic's got to be on Lyoko to for all of this to take effect on him." Keera summoned Ponic's and her shadow, the two shadows picked him up and they all started heading for the tower." On Earth Neon was standing outside the factory, Skylos rang Neon's cell phone. "Alright, I found the planes, both are heading for Geneva, right now they are over Limoges" Neon created darkness discs then flew off in that direction. Rem then came out of the factory, his cell phone rang, "Rem, you're going over the Atlantic, the plane is there." Rem went into his twighlight wolf form, he began running, faster and faster and faster gradually his wolf form started changing, the fur went white, his snout got a little longer, and his tail became more whispy, it began wagging furiously and Rem started going up and running on the air, he ran in the direction of the Atlantic.
The group came face to face with 3 blocks, the 3 of them went running at them. Mushashi used 1 katana to destroy the lasers and the other to kill the block. Alice ran quickly on all fours, jumped up then left a claw mark in the block destorying it, Keera drove a shadow blade into it. "Well that was, AH!" a spider jumped and landed ontop of her devirtualizing Keera. The spider then turned, Zach jumped up and drove his sword into the spiders target on it's abdomen. Another 6 crawled out from behind the trees, they opened their mouths and shot web all around, jumped into the circle and made the web larger till it became a dome over everybody, and no light was being let in. "Skylos we could use some light here!" Skylos nodded, "I'm coming" he typed in an atuo virtualization, and ran down to the scanner room, he got in and virtualized himself, landing just outside the web dome. "Any time would be great Skylos!" said Mushashi, "The spiders are all over, we've already gotten hit a few times!" Skylos put his hands together, they began glowing he then put them down on the floor, light flew under the doom and bathed all over the inside it. "Now time to party" said Mushashi. "Keep me covered and I'll break this web" said Zach, he then started attacking the dome. Just ouside Skylos was hit in the back by a laser, he turned and saw three kankralets coming at him. Skylos made a light disc, jumped on it and flew at the kanralets, he then shot a beam of light, and started moving it, it destroyed all 3 of them, Skylos then flew upwards because he noticed move were coming from around the area. This was all a distraction however, Shroud silently materialized behind Ponic, he threw 2 daggers into the 2 shadows killing them, then quickly put his hand over Ponic's mouth. "Let's go" he said, Shroud then tied a rope inside Ponic's mouth, picked him up then ran for the nearest area where the digital sea was. In the dome, Zach had created a whole in the web, Mushashi had already killed 1 spider, but was getting hit by the kankralets, "Losing too many life points!" said Keera over the mic. Mushashi put his katana up and started absorbing the blasts, he began backing up, and put his hand up, a dragon flew in roaring. It breathed fire down on the area, killing the kankralets and 1 other spider. "Fear my dragon!" said Mushashi smiling, he turned and saw 2 krabes fire and dissipate the dragon, Mushashi got angered at that point, "Oh no you didn't!" he under 1 krabe putting his katana up killing it, then jumped up and killed the other. Alice opened her mouth, he fangs squirted out a green substance, it burned the ground the spides dropped into the digital sea from the hole under them. Skylos then flew over the rest of them as fast as he could, he had 3 moths chasing him, "The ability is in Zach, deactivate the tower then find Aelita! Shroud's got Ponic!" he apparantly noticed up from the skies. Shroud was already preparing to throw Ponic into the digtal sea, but before he could put his 2 fingers on Ponic's chest to activate the orb, a light wip wrapped around Ponic and pulled him up, Skylos flew over at the speed of light. Shroud clenched his fist, "NO!" He became a black smoke then went after Skylos. Skylos pulled Ponic in then put him on the light disc, "What makes you think he won't catch up?" asked Ponic, Skylos smiled, "Cause he's not as fast as us, though these guies might present a problem." 3 hornets flew in infront of them, they fired their lasers, "AH!" 2 hit Skylos, knocking him off the disc, they didn't devirtualize him though. Skylos looked up and saw the 3 hornets coming up him, and the light disc continuing to fly, it hit a tree and exploded, he looked even harder and saw Ponic go flying off of it then landing, but he was unsure where, but with no digital sea explosion, it must have meant that Ponic landed on land.
On Earth Neon was already trying to use his darkness chains to pull the plane back, it was not going anywhere it kept flying forward pulling Neon with it, he looked down at the ground, and realized they were getting close to Switzerland, "How do you stop a military bomber!" Neon thought to himself. Meanwhile Rem was trying to regain control over the plane bearing the nuke, he had already gone over land, Rem found an atlas in the cockpit and took a look at it. "Where would XANA want to hit in North America?" Rem scanned over it and saw the volcanic belt in California. "Oh no, if XANA droped the nuke in the right spot, not only will people die from that, but the chain reaction from all those volcanoes will put the Earth into a second ice age!" Back on Lyoko Zach, Mushashi and Alice were close to the tower, they could see it, "We've just got to cross here" said Alice, behind the trees on the other side of the log bridge, came 5 krabes they shot at the group, the three of them ran at the krabes. However before Zach could cross the log bridge a squid looking monster came in front of him. It was the Scyphizoa, "Super" said Zach, it suddenly grabbed Zach and began implanting into his brain. Distracted by the krabes the others didn't notice all that was happening, the Scyphyzoa put Zach down, XANA symbols pulsed in his eyes, Zach began running at Mushashi and Alice. Mushashi killed one crab, but Zach's sword came down at him, Mushashi quickly noticed and put up his two katanas, "No!" Alice spoke up to Keera, "Hey why didn't you warn us?" no answer, "Keera?" In the lab Keera was hit into the wall, she had bruises on her, and a cut on her arm. "How can you be here and on Lyoko at once?" Shroud walked to Keera smiling evily, he threw 50 needles at her.

Keera opened her shadow and dove into his, 15 needles however went into her back, she exploded out of her shadow and went to hit Shroud with a shadow blade. Shroud ducked then threw another 30 needles at Keera. Keera shot a shadow blast disintegrating them, the needles in her back were making this hard to fight. Keera shot another shadow blast at Shroud, Shroud put up his sword and threw 8 needles at Keera, Keera went to flip backwards to avoid the needles, but the ones in her back stopped her, "No! Ah!" the 8 went into her legs, Shroud suddenly began turning throwing a barrage of them at Keera, they began covering all over her, her arms, legs, back, front, she could hardly move without it all hurting. Keera created a shadow blade, despite the pain she ran at Shroud with it, sadly she was at half speed, Shroud jumped upwards, "You call yourself a warrior, you can't beat me at all." Keera looked up at Shroud as he laughed, he then opened his hand and threw another 5 needles at Keera, they went into her back, "Ah!" Keera fell onto her knees, then felt daggers go into the torn part of her clothes around her pinning her to the floor, Shroud walked towards Keera, smiling evilly he jumped up and kicked Keera in the face, she fell down, barely holding her consciousness up, Keera called on a shadow to go at Shroud, Shroud put up his arm and destroyed it, then looked at Keera evilly, "Relax I'm not going to kill you." he said as he stepped on her hands pinning them to the floor, "I've got something in mind for you." Shroud then reached down at Keera. On Lyoko Alice, and Mushashi were trying to figure out what to do. Mushashi flipped over Zach and as Zach bought his sword down at Mushashi, he put his katanas together to deflect it. Alice then jumped at Zach and scratched him in the back, draining him to 40 life points, "We've got to devirtualize him, we'll worry about the tower later." Mushashi nodded he ran at Zach, "Let's see who's got the sword skills!" Mushashi hit at Zach with 1 katana, Zach deflected it, Mushashi then went to swipe Zach at the feet, Zach jumped upwards then flipped over Mushashi. They both swiped at each other, both attacks hit devirtualizing them both. On Earth Shroud was in the scanner room with Keera, he had chains around her hands and legs, Keera also had some blood around her from the needle marks, she was starting to lose consciousness, Zach and Mushashi came out of the scanners, "Hey what are you doing?!" Zach ran at Shroud, he pointed his sword out, Shroud was going to use Keera as a shield but Mushashi kicked her out of his hands, Shroud quickly ducked, Mushashi ran to Keera, "Sorry bout that, you alright?" he took a look at all the needles in her, and was about to take off the chains, "No I'm too weak to fight right now, go help Zach out." Mushashi nodded he ran to attack Shroud. Shroud rubbed his XANA icon, a block materialized infront of them, it fired it's ice beam and froze both Zach and Mushashi's legs. Shroud grabbed Keera and quickly went to through her in a scanner, Mushashi threw 1 katana at the block, killing it which melted the ice at their feets. "Now!" he said looking at Shroud. Mushashi threw his other katana and Zach threw his sword at Shroud, Shroud quickly threw Keera into a scanner then threw his sword at Mushashi and Zach. The attacks both made contact with them, "Ah!" Mushashi and Zach both were hit in the stomachs by Shroud's sword, Shroud dissipated, into the air, he was a copy of the original. Zach looked at the scanner before he went unsconscience, "I can't believe we just lost to a fake" he fell down onto the floor. Keera materialized on Lyoko, Alice noticed her, "Keera, you alright?" she went to run to her and saw Shroud land infront of Keera, he was riding a Manta, "Get away from her!" she screamed, Alice jumped up she opened her mouth and sprayed a venom as Shroud. Shroud put his sword up and absorbed the venom, "Your strength" he said, then fired the venom back at Alice, "Is your own weakness." Alice was hit by the venom, she fell down then stood back up. "Well you didn't do your homework, I can't be killed by my own venom!" Shroud clenched his fist at her, quickly Shroud loaded Keera onto the Manta and sent it off, then he ran at Alice, Alice ran at Shroud. Shroud lifted his sword up then brought it down on Alice, Alice had her claws out and drove them into Shroud, both of them were devirtualized.
Skylos was in another area fighting off 3 hornets, already lost 45 points. Skylos shot a light orb, it made contact with the hornet exploding it, left overs of the orb then killed the other, that's when the last hornet turned around and started flying away. "What is he running for?" thought Skylos, suddenly he started to feel a rumble under him, Skylos looked over the edge of the path and saw tenticles emerging from the digital sea. "Ponic!" He quickly created a light disc then zoomed off to the area he saw Ponic land. On Earth, Neon was currently over Geneva, the planes opened their pay load and started dropping bombs, Neon jumped down, he created darkness chains, and started throwing the bombs together, then wrapped his chain around 4 of them and threw them at the planes, 2 for each. The 2 bombers were hit by the bombs, and since they hadn't dropped their full load, both exploded in mid air, Neon was still falling closer and closer to the ground, he summoned the darkness around the area to create a mountain he could slide off of, it did so. The mound of darkness reached up to him, Neon landed and surfed right down the darkness mound, did a flip in the air then landed on his feet. There were a few people standing around completely shocked, at what they just saw, Neon with his usual bored look brushed some dirt off his sleeves then teleported out. The bomber with the nuke continued flying to California, Rem was trying all he could to stop it, "I can't make it crash, too dangerous" he thought to himself, then an electric shield appeared on the bomber, knocking Rem off. Rem went twightlight wolf and ran back up to the plane, he then saw an electric eel going at the jet, it zapped right through, Halo changed back to normal in the jet, she saw Rem running at the jet, "I've got an idea Rem! Get ready to bark at the nuke, run to the back of the plane." Rem went back, Halo hit the drop button, the nuke began falling, Rem then let out a loud bark at it, the nuke began shaking, then it vanished. Rem then looked at the plane, electricity began going all around it, Halo shorted out the engines, but she didn't get out. "Halo!" Rem ran back at the plane. He got there and screamed, "Halo get out!" Halo shook her head, "I've got to drive this thing into a field, or people will still die." Rem looked at the surroundings, "We're over Texas, it's desert should be big enough" Halo nodded yes and continued flying downards, "Clear the area for me!" Rem went wolf again and jumped off the plane. On Lyoko, Ponic was still on the plateau, a bright light was over him, he could see the monsters going into it, then he felt the rumbellings also, suddenly a tentacle came up in front of him from the digital sea, "What is that!" The tentacle came down and destroyed the ground next to Ponic, the shockwave made him bounce up and down and land near the edge, the tenticle then went up and hit closer, this time the shockwave pushed Ponic forward, he started falling to the digital sea. A light whip wrapped around him and started to pull him up, "Gr, you know you could lose some weight Ponic!" joked Skylos, "So work out more! Keep pulling!" replied Ponic. Skylos continued to pull more and more then he saw a tenticle coming at him, "Change of plans!" he sent a light blast down the whip, it zapped Ponic devirtualizing him, Skylos then was hit by the tentacle and also devirtualized. During this chaos Rem was on the floor barking, not with his power just a normal block, at everybody near bye, eventually everybody ran away, Rem then ran out of the way, and shifted back to his human form. Halo seeing the drop zone clear jumped out of the cockpit, and quickly went eagle, she flew away from it, the plane crashed with a very large explosion, leaving a huge crater in the ground. Rem looked at it, "That could have been you, or hundreds of other people." Halo still in eagle form just looked at the wreackage. "Let's get back to the factory quick" said Rem.
At the factory the scanner door opened Skylos stepped out, "Did it work?" Ponic's scanner open and he fell out, "Guess not, we've got to deactivate the tower." Ponic noticed Zach and Mushashi, and pointed them out to Skylos, as if on cue that's when Rem and Halo showed up, Rem quickly ran to the two and gave them his red potion, they began to wake up, "We'll live" smiled Zach. Alice was also in the scanner room growling, "How could we have lost like that! Now that pyscho path as Keera. Where's Neon?" Keera awoke to find herself in a dark room, her hands were still died being her back so were her feet, she had a chain around her waist, which was latched to a hook, all attached to the ceiling, Shroud walked under her, he brought his arm down, Keera began lowering. Shroud took out duct tape and put it on her mouth, "Can't have you screaming and attracting an audience, Keera. Don't worry, I'll let em know you're here eventually, but the longer they take the more you will hurt, here's the start." Shroud took out a dagger and put it to her arm, he made a 2 inch cut on it, then took her down, from the chain, he then placed her in a room, closed and locked the door. Neon was walking around in a dark place, even he was getting a bit nervous, he heard Shroud's voice, "Did you think XANA forgot how to use your powers? You were his servant remember!" A dagger went into Neon's thigh, "And you shall suffer for what you've done!" However for Neon, unknowest to him none of this was real, he was unconscience and in a mind trauma sphere, the Shroud in there was an illusion the real one was just outside the sphere, "Now to finish all this off." He walked out of the building. Skylos was outside the factory with the others, "I can feel it, I can feel Neon's aura, he's this way come on!" They all ran into the city, except Ponic who was on Rem's shoulder, as they were walking a shock wave went into Skylos sending him flying sideways into a building, the group looked around. Suddenly 3 daggers came flying at them, Zach and Mushashi deflected them, Halo and Yisha then screamed. Rem, Zach and Mushashi turned they saw needles in their backs, Shroud was standing on top of a building staring down at them sinisterly, he was hold another 6 daggers in hand they were all glowing.

Shroud threw the daggers at everybody, Zach ran up and hit one with his sword, it burned a whole right through it, "Well that's not good." Him and Mushashi grabbed Halo and Yisha, everybody then ran backwards, the daggers burned right through the ground. Shroud jumped down grabbed his daggers and threw a bunch of needles at Zach and Mushashi's legs, they made contacts slowing them down. Shroud then threw his daggers at them again, "Duck!" screamed Mushashi, him and Zach did so, the daggers flew over them and 2 came back, the other 1 was going at Rem. "What the they can follow us?" said Muashashi, he drew his katana and the force that the dagger hit it with sent it flying out of his hand, Zach gripped hard on his sword, he hit the dagger coming at him, as his sword was glowing with pure energy, when they came into contact the dagger exploded, but such force drained Zach's energy a bit, he dropped to one knee, Shroud flipped over him, he threw a dagger and 4 needles at his head. The needles went into Zach's shoulders, Zach put his arm up, the dagger went into it, but thanks to the armour in his sleeve, it was not fatal. Zach stood up, Shroud walked towards him, "Tell your friends, that Neon, Keera and Skylos are going to die if they don't surrender Ponic, and more people are just going to begin suffering." He turned and picked up Skylos from the wreakage of the building, then felt 2 katans and a sword jab into his back, "Ah!" Shroud fell down, even with his armour the force that those were thrown at were powerful enough to be nearly fatal enough to kill him. He rubbed his XANA mark, 2 mega tanks appeared infront of him. "Kill them both!" He took the katanas and sword out of his back, "We can't let him get to Rem and Ponic, you go get him Mushashi, I'll deal with the mega tanks." "You sure?" asked Mushashi, Zach nodded, "I can deal with these guies." Mushashi ran and jumped over the megatanks, the 2 of them rolled towards Zach, "Alright guies bring it on." He walked infront of Yisha and Halo, the mega tanks fired, Zach put his sword up, at the rite angle he deflected 1 blast into the other tank, then ran at the next one, with his sword pointed out. The mega tank closed it's shell then started rolling at Zach, "Wow!" he jumped up and over it, then the mega tank opened up and fired, this attack made contact, Zach went flying backwards and hit the wall of a building, some of it collapsed around him, but not on him. "And here I was thinking it was nice to not get devirtualized." Zach then took a look around him, he saw all the needles, "I got an idea." Further down the road, Rem was being attacked by Shroud. Shroud kicked him then threw a dagger at him, it hit him in the leg, and the kick hit him in the chest, Rem went flying backwards and fired a star attack at Shroud as he went backwards. Shroud put up his sword and absorbed the attack, then threw 5 more daggers at Rem, they went into his chest, Rem fell down, but vanished. "Huh?" Rem was on a building behind Shroud, he fired an apai blast at him. Shroud turned, he lifted his cloack and put Skylos infront of him as a shield. "No!" Rem destroyed the blast quickly. "That's what I thought you'd do Rem. Now you will-" Before Shroud could finish his sentence, he felt the sting of a katana scrape against his arm. Mushashi landed infront of him, "I'm sick of you!" It began to rain, Rem looked at Mushashi, Mushashi quickly said, "Get to safety, find Keera, Neon and Skylos." Shroud had placed Skylos in a dark portal teleporting him elsewhere. It began storming, Mushashi and Shroud were at each other, katana and swords out, then ran at each other. Shroud aimed Mushashi's neck, Mushashi aimed for Shroud's waiste and neck, as they came closer, they both jumped up, and scrapped against each other's stomachs, they fell down, both in pain, then turned and their weapons collided with each other.
Rem was furthur in the city, he had put Ponic down and drank some of his red potion, "Without Skylos, how are we going to find them?" Ponic answered, "Hold my 2 fingers on my temples" Rem did so, Ponic closed his eyes, "I can't find Neon but I see Keera and Skylos they are in a building across this river, that dark run down one over there." Rem felt a tap on his shoulder he dropped Ponic's hands and quickly turned Alice was behind him. "Sorry, I caught up as fast as I could." "Well better late then never, we found Keera, Skylos and Neon they are in a building across this river." Rem picked up Ponic and put him on his shoulder, "Let's get going." Alice nodded, they started walking to the old building. Back at the factory, Zach was throwing the needles at the mega tank, it had closed it's shell and all of them were deflecting right off, Zach was using this as a distraction, he then ran and drove his sword into the megatank's shell's crease, and began prying it open. "Grr, ah!" he got it open a bit then then drove all the needles into the target, the tank exploded. Zach went up to Halo and Yisha, "You two alright?" they were beginning to come to, "Aw, what happened?" asked Yisha rubbing her head. Zach just smiled at her, then electricity wizzed by their heads, Zach and Halo and Yisha ducked down, they saw an army of XANAfied humans walking at them, "Run!" They ran into the factory Yisha put up fire around the entrance, "We've got to warn the others." said Yisha taking out her cell phone. Rem's cell phone began ringing, "Hello? Yisha? What do you mean an army of XANAfied hum-" electricity destroyed his cell phone, there was an XH standing behind him, and 3 more coming from the other side. "It's a trap!" said Alice. Back in the city, Mushashi and Shroud both had their weapons at each other's sides, they sliced at their sides. Shroud turned and saw the smoke coming from the two sides of the city, "It's begun and I'm finished playing." Shroud snapped his fingers, suddenly an XH zapped Mushashi in the back, then another 5 grabbed him and held his hands behind his back. "Ah, let me go, what's the matter can't fight fair?" Shroud looked at Mushashi, "You may have some good moves, but I don't have to fight fair." Shroud then took Mushashi's daggers then drove them into his stomach, Mushashi fell down on his back, Shroud and the XH's left him lieing there. At the old building, Rem had a shield around him and Ponic, he couldn't attack without endangering the people, Alice was jumping biting each XH with a anesisia to knock them out, not permanantly she just needed to neutralize them. "Let's go" the walked inside the building, it was too dark to see anything infront of them. Shroud's voice was then heard, "I was wondering when I'd see you all again" the lights came on he was standing on a beam in the building above them. "I'm going to offer you a choice" he said "You can try to fight me and lose to save your friends, or you can return to the city and save Mushashi, who is coming very close to death, and I think you know the price for anything that you choose." he said this looking at Ponic. "Otherwise, I kill one of your friends, 2 XH's appeared on the far sides of the building and tied Skylos and Keera to the chains hanging from the ceiling, then lowered them to Shroud's level. Rem held a potion behind his back, he silently snapped his fingers commanding his shadow to life, he gave it the potion and it silently creeped out of the building then wizzed off to find Mushashi. "Take your pic, which choice?" Shroud had his sword up, preparing to kill any of them. After about a minute of silence, Shroud became fed up, "Fine." he placed his sword at Keera's neck, and then went to chop her head off, when a katana went into his chest, Shroud fell backwards onto the floor. Mushashi was standing at the entrance of the door, panting, "Thanks Rem." he said then ran at Shroud. Alice started climbing up the walls, she bit on XH, then ran and bit the other, quickly undid Keera and Skylos. "Get ready to get us out of here Keera" Keera nodded, Skylos ran to where he felt Neon's aura. Neon's mind trauma was devastating him. It kept flashing between different torture scence, he was seeing his friends die by his hand, he was seeing his friends turn on him, he was being hoisted up then whipped in the back, and even being pinned to a wall and having daggers thrown into his, body but never dieing. Skylos grabbed the dark sphere, "Neon!" he started channelling light engery all through it, the sphere exploded, Neon fell out of it unconscience, Skylos checked his pulse. "Get us out of here Keera." Keera dropped everyone into their shadows.
They all arrived at the factory, "Did you get Shroud?" asked Alice. Mushashi shook his head, "XANA really has designed him to be almost invincible, he knew almost every move I did before I made it." Mushashi clenched his fist, "And ontop of that as I recall that tower is still active, and now he has a city under his control from that attack." The group nodded, at that moment the fire wall exploded, the XH's poured in, Shroud was leading them he opened his hands, chains wizzed all around the group, they wrapped around all of them, then flew upwards latching onto one of the support beams up on the ceiling, the chains then nulled everybody's powers. Shroud looked up at the group from the ground, "No powers, you all are useless." He then looked at Rem, "Hand Ponic over, or I'll kill them all." Rem looked around, Ponic then spoke, "He's won Rem, put me down." "What?" Ponic was in tears, "I'm sorry Rem, but you will all have a better chance of surviving if you simply surrender me to Shroud, do it." Before Rem could respond Shroud ran and grabbed Ponic out of his hands, the XH's looked at Shroud, he gave them their orders, "Take them away but allow them to live." The group was dragged away by the XHs. Shroud then went into the scanner room with Ponic, he virtualized him and Ponic on Lyoko, next he removed Ponic's shirt then touched the orb on his chest. "You made the right choice, your friends will actually live, as hard as it is to believe, I'm not lieing, I'll let them live." He held Ponic up, then dropped him into the digital sea, as Ponic fell he thought to himself, "I only hope they remember what we all agreed to do in a situation like this." Ponic then plunged into the sea.

The orb in Ponic's chest continued to glow more and more, suddenly he began feeling a prescance begin escaping, he saw a XANA spectre begin coming closer towards him, it grabbed Ponic's arms then stretched them out, the orb continued to glow more and more, suddenly a hand emerged from it, Izerion exited out of the orb. The spectre vanished, Izerion grabbed Ponic's arm then came out of the digital sea, with XANA symbols in his eyes. "Welcome to the fold Izerion." Izerion's eyes however quickly turned to pupils, "Ya why would I want to join a computer who clearly is so incompetent they needed help." Shroud was shocked by this, Izerion looked at him, "You heard me, thanks for freeing me, but this being" he said this while holding Ponic up just by his arm in the air, "Is mine, you can do whatever you feel like." Izerion then sent shadows all over at Shroud, Shroud took out his sword and destroyed them, "What the?" Izerion had already devirtualized himself. Ponic fell out of the scanner, the orb was still in his chest but now it was glowing, and he also had no control over his limbs, Izeiron walked over and grabbed him then hoisted him over his back, he walked down to the computer room. Izerion put Ponic down then went up to the super computer, "Good bye, good ritance" he deactivated it. Ponic looked horrified, "Aelita" Izerion stood Ponic up, and pushed him into the elevator "Deal with it, whoever was in there is gone now." Izerion then picked Ponic up and put him in the elevator, when they got up stop. Izerion found an old chair, and tied Ponic to it, then had shadows pick it up, "We still have the matter of your friends to deal with Ponic." Izerion teleported them both. In the old building where everyone was being held, the group noticed all the XH's suddenly go deXANAfied, but they were still tied in chains hoisted up on a support beam, they were swaying in the air, "Super" said Mushashi. Skylos turned, "What is it?" "I've gotta itch my nose..." Halo rolled her eyes, "Somebody just kill me now" a shadow blast then wizzed by here, "AH I DIDN'T MEAN LITERALLY!" Izerion exited out of the shadow, with Ponic. "Hello again, so nice to see you, and I brought Ponic along, I thought he might want a chance to see all of this, and his friends 1 more time." Ponic spoke telepathically to the others, "I can't move but my telepathy still works, Izerion deactivated the super computer, the chains have probably lost their power, try to break free." "AWESOME!" screamed Mushashi. Izeiron stood there confused for a minute, since he didn't hear Ponic's telepathic message it sounded as though Mushashi was happy that he was in danger of being killed. Halo turned into a T-rex and burst out of her chains, Rem opened his hand and used his star attack as a drill. Neon exploded out in a sphere of darkness, Skylos did the same but with light. Alice broke the chains with her claws, Mushashi and Zach used their weapons. They jumped down infront of Izerion, Izerion smiled evily. "Well this makes it a bit more fun, come and get me." They ran at Izerion, Neon fired darkness chains at him, Izerion grabbed them, then swung Neon into Skylos, Halo jumped up she went Phoenix then set herself on fire, Yisha grabbed hold and amplified her power they fired fire at Izerion. Izerion opened a shadow, the fire all went within it, the shadow exploded afterwards and the shockwave sent Yisha and Halo flying backwards. He then saw Mushashi and Zach come running at him, with their weapons pointed out, Izerion summoned their own shadows to attack them in the chaos he jumped upwards and fired 2 shadow blasts at them, they were hit by them and fell down. Izerion jumped infront of Alice, who was trying to free Ponic, "Uh uh, he stays with me." Alice went to bite him, Izerion put his arm up, Alice dug her fangs into it, he then threw spun and threw Alice into Rem's star attack, and since the attack was still near Rem at the time, the blast affected him also. The venom then spued out of Izerion, he walked out of the building, "Pathetic all of you" he shot shockwaves at it, the building then collapsed, Izerion took Ponic and flew off. They landed on a mountain top, "Why are you keeping me alive?" asked Ponic. Izerion walked over to Ponic, "Because, we still have a mind link, and this orb" he pointed at Ponic's chest where the orb was, "Allows me to also have a connection to what this XANA once was, simply put, you are my weapon now, and come Halloween, who knows how much more strong I will become." Izerion looked down at the city, "And who knows what I will be able to accomplish now, isn't it beautiful? Just imagine, a world under my thumb, I will have armies at my command, and you will be my source Ponic, you and that little orb. That is until Halloween, when you become expendable and all this power becomes perminant."
In the old building, Neon and Skylos undid the shields that were around them. "Super what do we do now?" asked Skylos. Suddenly a telepathic message was felt in their minds again, "Guies, Izerion is only here by XANA's hand, Izerion merely deactivated the super computer." Then it dissipeared. Skylos snapped his fingers, "Why didn't I think of that?" "What?" asked Zach. "Izerion didn't die or vanish, and the orb didn't deactivate on Ponic because despite the super computer being turned off, it still holds it's backround memory, if XANA was in the middle of an attack, the attack is left standard in the last known command code." "Huh?" said Zach. Skylos rolled his eyes, "XANA can't do anything more with his attack, but with a deactivated super computer the attack is left in how it was the last time." Neon looked around, "But the XH's were deXANAfied, are you sure Skylos?" Skylos nodded, "The process of XANAfying a human requires XANA to give thousands of commands constantly, with not super computer to power it, the commands cease, and so does the possesion, but to just activate a simple attack on Earth? Needs only 1 command. Come on we've got to reactivate the super computer then deactivate the tower." Skylos ran at the speed of light to the factory, Neon teleported the others. Once everyone was in, Skylos spoke onto the mic, "Alright Rem, do it." Rem turned the super computer on then ran back to the lab, Skylos had already launched a scan, "We were right! The tower in the forest sector is still active." Let's go, prepare for virtualization, who's staying in reserve back here? Yisha, Keera and Mushashi volunteered. "Ready for the forest? Transfer, scanner, virtualization." Neon, Rem, Halo, Zach and Alice virtualized on Lyoko. They didn't even get 5 seconds before they were surronded by krabes, but strangely the Krabes did not fire, Shroud stepped down from one of them. "Hello Lyoko warriors." Everybody was disgusted that Shroud had the nerve to show his face to them. Zach spoke to him, "You, it's by your hand that all of this is happening, haven't you done enough!" Shroud chuckled a bit, "Hm, XANA, mis-calculated, if you wish to gain an upper hand against Izerion you will need my help." "And why's that? We could tear this place up ourselves." Shroud pointed into the distance, "As soon as Izerion touched the computer, he sent out shadow warrior spirits all over, now they are in control, I wish to destroy Izerion as well, and unlike you all, I have an endless army at my back. If that is not enough, here is my other peace offering." Aelita appeared infront of them, Shroud undid the chains around her, "Fine, but this had better not be a trick!" said Alice. Aelita began to wake up, she saw Shroud and backed away into Neon's leg, "What's going on?" "Common enemies will bring together even the worst of foes." Aelita stood up, "We have the element of surprise for now" said Shroud. They all began walking silently down the path. "Aelita, Rem, come with me" said Shroud. "The shadow warriors gather up ahead, the rest of you cause a distraction." Rem nodded. Shroud summoned a Manta, him, Rem and Aelita stepped onto it then flew high. "As much as I don't like him, he has a good strategy in mind." said Zach. "Whatever, let's just do this quick" said Alice. The krabes placed their front legs out front, Neon, Halo, Zach and Alice each grabbed hold on one, the krabes threw them forward. The 5 of them went flying upwards, Neon darkness into the ground, it started spreading it then pulled in 2 shadow warriors, Zach brought his sword down on one then turned and stabed one behind him. Halo went Lion she pounced at once and scratched it, Alice then destroyed the last one. Shroud flew in on the Manta, "The tower should be just ahead, keep moving fowards and clear the- ah! Accursed machine!" A dark object object came flying towards Shroud, it opened up and released multiple flying shadow warriors, it then continued firing shadow blasts at him, Rem and Aelita,he flew upwards, "Come fourth Hornets! Attack and destroy those shadow warriors!" Rem ran off the Manta, he dove upon the large shadow machine, Shroud made the Manta go sideways, it started firing at the shadow warriors in it's way, Rem then jumped inside the machine.
Izerion was up on the mountain top, he sensed something happening to his shadow warriors. "Who reactivated the super computer!" He looked at Ponic, "You!" The shadows flew at Ponic, undid the chains tieing him to the chair, then grabbed his hands and lifted them up, "Turn him around." commanded Izerion. They did so, Izerion created a shadow tenticle, he began whipping Ponic's back, 15 times. "Turn him around again." They turned Ponic now to face Izerion. Izerion, walked towards Ponic, he began hitting him in the stomach, the face and the ribs, then took out a dagger and put 2 cuts on his sides, he kicked him hard in stomach, Ponic flew backwards and landed with great force on the floor. Izerion walked up to him, he put his foot on Ponic's bare chest, Ponic began suffocating, Izerion then drove a needle into Ponic's arm, "Your resistance, much like your existance is futile, we shall both go and deal with this personally." Izerion took his foot off of Ponic, Ponic coughed then the shadows picked Ponic up and tied hands behind his back, and his feet together, lastly he gagged him. The shadows then picked Ponic up, they teleported to the factory. They arrived in the lab in secret, Skylos was typing on the computer, "Watch it Neon down 35 points." Suddenly Ponic went flying out of the shadow, he landed infront of them, Keera ran up to Ponic and began untieing him, and ungagged Ponic, "You alright?" she asked. "It's a trap!" warned Ponic, a shadow blast flew out of the shadow and hit Keera, Izerion then stepped out shadows flew all over the lab. "Watch out, their everywhere!" warned Mushashi. Izerion put his hand on the orb, "Ah!" screamed Ponic, the orb started giving off power into Izerion, after the transfer was done the shadows grabbed Ponic and took him down into a scanner. Izerion then showed in his hand, he had glowing daggers.

Izerion threw the daggers at Skylos, Yisha burned the daggers before they could hit at Skylos. Mushashi ran at Izerion, "You made a mistake coming here!" Izerion placed shadows around his hands, he grabbed Mushashi's katanas, "I don't have the time or patience to deal with you right now!" Keera jumped out of a shadow from the ceiling, she went to kick Izerion, shadows exploded out from under him. Keera flew upwards, and hit the wall with great force Izerion threw a dagger at her. Keera pulled up a shadow, then Izerion looked at the shadow and destroyed it, "Ah!" she put her arm up, Mushashi looked, "No!" He clenched his fist, it began glowing, and so did his feet, he jumped up and kicked Izerion in the face. Izerion fell back, Yisha burned the daggers infront of Keera, "You alright?" Keera nodded. "Alright, get down to the scanner room, stop Izerion from getting Ponic into the scanner." Keera ran down to the scanner room, Mushashi continued hitting Izerion, with extremly great force, it was as if his strength had exploded upwards 10 fold. Izerion put up his hand, Mushashi's strength pushed Izerion's arm back, the shadows from around the area flew upwards, then came down on Mushashi, they began pouring down all around him, Izerion got up, he had bruises on him, then he opened the shadow and it consumed Mushashi. Izerion then looked at Skylos, he had an evil look on his face. Skylos mixed light around his hands, he shot them at Izerion, Izerion fired shadow, at it. Izerion then dropped into his shadow, Skylos looked around, he exploded light from around him to expose Izerion. "Skylos can you see what's going on from your end! Skylos? Skylos? SKYLOS!" screamed Halo from Lyoko. Izerion was out in the middle of the computer lab, Skylos looked at him, he used the light in the room and sent it all at Izerion. Izerion exploded shadow from around him, to push the light back, suddenly a shadow warrior shot at Skylos. "ah!" Skylos fell down unconscience on the floor, Izerion typed in an atuo virtualization, then walked to the scanner room, "Finish them" he commanded the shadow warriors. The warriors stood over Skylos, their shadow spears glowing with the blasts ready to fire. When Izerion arrived in the scanner room, he saw Keera struggelling against shadows all around her, there was no clear winner at that point. Izerion walked forward toward her, Keera turned she saw Izerion drive a shadow blade into her, she quickly put her arm's up, therefore rather then hitting her in the heart it hit her in the right across the whole side of her body, she fell down. Izerion looked at Keera, then realizing that he was short on time, "I'll come back for you later." He entered into the scanner, Keera's blood was forming a puddle around her. As the shadow warriors prepared to kill Skylos, suddenly a katana killed 1 and the other katana killed the next one. The 3rd shadow warrior looked around, suddenly Mushashi came out of a shadow, full of rage and with an aura around him, "PREPARE FOR MUSHIFICATION" He shot a shockwave pushing the third warrior back, Mushashi ran at the warrior, then killed it. "Skylos, you alright?" He gave him a slight slap, "Ow, was that truly the best choice?" Mushashi laughed, Skylos then got up into the computer chair, "What's going on guies?"
Izerion virtualized on Lyoko, he dropped down, Ponic fell next to him. Izerion then opened his shadow, he dropped Ponic into it. Izerion ran to where the battle was. It was on a large plateau, there was the flying shadow weapon machine, and a large 4 legged shadow robot standing in the middle of it all, destroying XANA's monsters. Neon wrapped a chain around the leg of it, he began climbing upwards with the chains, he climbed up to the top of the robot and summoned the darkness around him, it hit the monster and exploded right off. "It's robotic, I can see the warriors in there." A shadow explosion came off of it, Neon fell down from the robot, Neon shook it off, then saw the leg of the monster step on top of him, devirtualizing him. Shroud was flying up in the air destroying the flying shadow warriors, "Aelita, hang on tight to me." The manta began doing barrell rolls, this caused the laser to turn a darker red, the moths fired their lazers in 1 spot, the Manta then shot a laser, they all intercepted becoming a large red ball, and suddenly hundreds of lasers exploded out from it, this killed a good chunk of the flying shadow warriors. The flying shadow machine shot a strong shadow blast, "Aelita hold onto me and jump!" The blast hit it, and it disintegrated in mid air, Shroud and Aelita just barely avoided being hit by the blast. Suddenly the machine began falling, at the 4 legged monster in the middle of the plateau. Laser arrows bursted out of the hull of the machine, Rem ran out in twilight wolf form. A shadow barrage hit him in the air, this stunned Rem for a brief second he fell onto the plateau, and saw the flying machine hit the 4 legged monster. The smoke cleared and the 4 legged monster was undamaged. Halo was in megatank form, she already destroyed a shadow warrior, and began firing at the 4 legged monster, no effect. The tank then turned and shot its shadow blast at Halo, despite Halo having her shell closed, the force sent her flying upwards into a tree, and exploded her out of her megatank form. Halo turned eagle and flew upwards, but was shot but a shadow shock hit her in the back she fell down onto the floor as well. "Get ready I'm sending you Mushashi." Mushashi virtualized in the fight, he landed, and killed 2 shadow warriors. The shadow warriors then shot into the ground, they each created little shadow beats, they stood and roared. Alice jumped at one, she clawed it before it could claw her, when it exploded, a shadow barrage came out of it, Alice shook it off and stood up, "Dang those guies are tough and annoying!" Skylos warned them, "You're all down too short of life points!" Shroud stoof up and placed his hand up, he summoned the tentacle monster, "Kraken, destroy this 4 legged beats!" The kraken came out, it looked somewhat like a very large octopus, coloured a slightly lighter then pitch black. It's eyes were glowing green, it roared and attacked the 4 legged machine. The machine grew large shadow blades around it. It began firing little explosives of shadow at the kraken, the Kraken wrapped it's tenticles around it and began pulling to crush the machine with it's power. It roared as the blades went into it, suddenly the machine fired it's main weapon the strong shadow blast, but now as a beam, the kraken fell down, it did quite a number on the 4 legged machine, but it itself died. Shroud was horrified by this, "How could it have failed!"
In the lab Neon came up in the elevator, he had Keera's cloak wrapped around her wound, had Keera's arm around his shoulder and was holding Keera up. Keera was starting to regan consciousness. Then the shadows in the lab began moving, a shadow warrior army exploded out of them, 4 of them fired at Yisha knocked her backwards into the computer chair. Skylos spoke into the mic, "Guies, we don't have a choice, remember what we all said we would do in a dire situation like this, let's go!" Neon, Skylos, Keera and Yisha grabbed each other's hands. On Lyoko Rem, Halo, Alice, Zach and Mushashi grabbed each other's hands also, Shroud looked at them "Grabbing hands? What is that going to do?" The group on Earth and Lyoko began glowing, a large explosion of all of their powers combined, this made it coloured white, came out of them on Earth and Lyoko, destroying all of the shadow warriors in the lab, on Lyoko, and also destroying the 4 legged monster, no remains or left overs after the smoke cleared. The group on Lyoko continued glowing, "Follow us" said Zach. They began running down the path, destroying every obsticle in their way, they arrived at the tower, Shroud and Aelita were right behind them. Izerion appeared infront of the tower, "No one's going anyways." he had the shadows hold Ponic infront of him. The group stopped glowing, such energy drained their energy, they didn't collapse but came close to it, Izerion opened his hands, he was about to fire on them, when green daggers hit Izerion in the back, "Seems fitting that I help you all out once." said Shroud. "I've got the tower handelled" Aelita ran inside it. Izerion arrived in the scanner room, "NO!" he ran to the computer lab, he found Neon, Skylos, Keera and Yisha weakened. He smiled evily and began attacking them. Aelita floated to the top platform on the tower, entering the "Code LYOKO" "Tower deactivated." Izerion began dissapearing, "There is still Halloween, you haven't seen the last of me!" Izerion vanished, Skylos then struggeled to get up, "Return to the past now." The white light sent the Earth back a few days, everybody was in the computer lab when the trip was over, except Ponic. He was still on Lyoko, his chest still had the orb in it and Ponic was unable to move his body from the neck down still, he was was lieing on his side with his arms out in front of him, conscience however he called up, "Hello? Can anyone hear me? What's happening? Nothing's changed from a few minutes ago, the orb is still in me, and I can't move." "I'll rematerialize you Ponic" said Skylos, and error came on the screen. Shroud then appeared over Ponic, "What's going on?" asked Keera. Shroud spoke, "XANA has recalculated, without releasing Izerion we can still use all the power." Shroud grabbed Ponic's arm and lifted him up, placed his palm on the orb this time, it began glowing green instead, standing Ponic up, Ponic looked at Shroud before Shroud dropped him into the digital sea, "You, still have to learn we never give up." Shroud let go of Ponic, and he fell backwards into the digital sea. Shroud then jumped in soon after.

The group was in their classes at Kadic, it was fourth period, normally Keera and Ponic had class together at this point, not today. The bell rang at 2:30, Keera grabbed her books and went outside, then sat on a hill. The others met at the school gate. Rem spoke first, "Well we did our chore and made it look good us being in school, now let's get back to the factory." Skylos nodded, but before they left Alice stopped them, "Keera was pretty depressed in English today, I'll go find her, then we'll catch up." The group nodded and they headed off to the factory, Alice went looking around the school grounds. Keera was out in the back sitting on a hill, Sissi found her first, "Hey Keera, no Ponic. What did he dump you for your hair or for someone better?" Nick, Ponic's roommate walked over, "Sissi, if we are going to talk about hair, try growing some that doesn't look like fertilizer gone bad." Sissi rolled her eyes, and went to find Rem. Nick sat down next to Keera. "Where'd Ponic go? I haven't seen my roomy for awhile now." Keera fidgeted a bit with her hands, "He's sick, parents had to come and get him, bad case of the flu." Nick nodded, "Well guess it's for the best, lemme ask you a question, are you in love with him?" Keera looked at Nick, "Ya." Nick nodded, "Makes sense, come on Keera, people get over the flu all the time, Ponic'll be fine." Keera couldn't say other wise, so she just nodded yes, then saw Alice coming. "Oh here comes Alice, anyways I've gotta be off, I'm gonna grab some lunch then hit town for a movie, I'll be see ya around Keera." Nick got up and left. Alice then got to Keera, "Hey, come on, we got the...thing we've gotta be at." Keera smiled, "Ya that's making it subtle." she got up and they both started walking. Alice joked, "Hey you got a better name for it lemme know." They got to the gate and saw Sissi trying to wow Rem. "Come on Rem, just you and me by the moonlight, dancing together, just imagine the possibilities." Rem then got an evil idea. He looked at Sissi then smiled, "Alright, I've gotta go, but pucker up for a good bye kiss." He signalled for Alice and Keera to sneak off quietly. Sissi closed her eyes and put her lips together, Rem, walked off silently. "Rem? Rem?" Sissi opened her eyes, just to see a few kids standing around her with confused looks on their faces. "AH! YOU'RE GOIN TO PAY FOR THAT!" Sissi stormed off to the dorms. By now the group was all in the factory, Skylos was working on the computer, he called Aelita, "Hey you there Aelita do you read me?" "Loud and clear, hello my friends." "Hey, you remember what we talked about last night for going after Ponic?" Aelita nodded, "Ya I'm ready when all of you are." "What's going on?" asked Zach. Aelita answered, "We decided to make a submarine to tread the digital sea, we'll be able to use it to go and get Ponic. We just need some data from one of the towers, we'll need you to keep us covered." Musashi, Neon, Rem, Zach and Alice walked into the scanners. "Pack your parcas, you're going to the ice sector. Transfer, scanner, virtualization." The 5 of them landed in Lyoko, Aelita waved at them. "Hey! Hello and welcome!" she ran over. "What's up Aelita?" said Rem smiling. "Oh nothing much, just the usual mission that XANA is going to try to mess up." Mushashi laughed, "Ya you're right, it really is nothing much." Aelita smiled then turned and pointed, "There's a tower just on the other edge of that ice tunnel, the quickest way will actually be to go through it." "Let's go and get that tower!" said Zach, running first, the others all followed. In the digital sea, Ponic was in a sphere with air in it so he could atleast breath, his arms were stretched upwards and bound to chains, which were bound to the top of the sphere. His legs were stretched downward and also bound to chains, but bound to the bottom of the sphere, this had him suspended in the air, lastly there was rope in his mouth to stop him from speaking. The orb was glowing green, and there were wires with suction cups attached to his chest, they were positioned to be over his core. Shroud walked over to Ponic, he patted him on the back, "Ready to lend me and XANA some power?" Shroud snapped his fingers, the wires attached to Ponic started powering up. Ponic moaned in pain as the orb glowed green, the shadow powers were drawn out of him, copied then sent into XANA's memory and hardware. After it was done, Ponic almost fell unconscious, Shroud undid the wires on Ponic, "Gotta let these babies cool down." Shroud then drew out 3 daggers,"I just need a little blood." he put a cut on Ponic's side over his ribs, the blood dripped onto the dagger, Shroud dropped it inside a machine. This caused the others to begin glowing red. "Don't worry this won't kill you, just hurt." Shroud drove the daggers into Ponic's stomach and his back, "Now anytime one of XANA's monsters bites the dust, you'll feel the pain." Shroud gave Ponic a pat on the cheek, almost like a light slap, Ponic narrowed his eyes at him, Shroud knew what he was thinking. "You will not win this time." Shroud took out a normal dagger then put a gash on Ponic's back, "There's plenty more where those came from if you continue to think like that." He gave Ponic a kick in middle of his body in the front, then dissipeared in the digital sea. Ponic's head dropped down, he longed to see his friends agian. Mushashi's spirit, Neon's strength, Skylos' brains, Zach's wit, Alice's energy, Halo's jokes, Rem's happiness, Yisha's joy, Aelita's kindness and Keera, the one he loved, her heart. He couldn't fight a tear from coming out.
On Lyoko Aelita was working in the tower, it was activated. "The submarine activation codes are ready for transfer Skylos, here they come." she hit the go button, the codes began transferring. Outside the others were standing around the tower. Musashi yanwed, "Wow, gettin sleepy, no XANA, no party." Skylos spoke on the mic, "Well get ready to pump up the tunes, I can see a kankralet coming your way." "That's it?" asked Musashi, "We'll mop him up easy, I call dibs." The kanraklet stood infront of Musashi, "3, 2,1" Musashi ran at the kankralet to kill it, suddenly a wave of electricity grabbed him and lifted him up, "Shoulda seen that comin, what's up Shroud?" Shroud floated over a mountain top, he commanded the cloaking to be lifted, behind the kankralet were 4 spiders, and 2 blocks. Halo then pointed, "I swear that thing is laughing at us!" Shroud went to devirtualize Musashi when, Musashi used one of his katans to break the electricity wave wrapped around him. The monsters open fired. "Keep them busy, the tower is mine." said Shroud. Red electricity began going towards the tower. Skylos saw XANA was trying to capture the tower, "Not so fast XANA! No one hacks me!" Skylos his the firewall code and activated it, "Listen up guies, I've stopped XANA from automatically taking control of the tower, but he can still take over it manually, you can't let Shroud get inside the tower." Musashi wanted a piece of Shroud, he ran at him, Shroud opened his hand, Musashi's shadow came out at him and grabbed him, "Only Ponic and Keera have that ability." Musashi killed his shadow with his katana then jumped at Shroud, Shroud combined shadow with his electricity, this caused it to be able to move like electricity but travel like shadow. Musashi was shocked, "Ah!" he dropped to one knee, "Enough playing around!" Jumped upwards then landed on Shroud, Shroud drew his sword, "I'm eager to see your skills in the sword, Musashi." They ran at each other. The others were fighting the blocks and the spiders, Halo turned into a spider then shot a web at one of them, it got stuck unable to move, Neon jumped upwards, he put his trigger fingers together in a cross like shape, darkness flew out from them, multiple little blasts, most his the XANA eyes, of the monsters killing them. The block's lost mots of their life points to this attack, Shroud's sword locked with Musashi's katanas he looked over at the others, "I wouldn't do that." Zach stopped and turned, "Why not?" "Well because Ponic is the only one that will feel the pain." A window appeared on Skylos' screen he saw the dome Ponic was in, as each monster went down he saw a cut scrape across Ponic's body, "Guies he's not lieing, stop attacking the monsters." Everybody stopped, "That doesn't mean you can't keep yourselves save from the attacks." Everybody had a shield put around them, the monsters began open firing. Musashi jumped backwards, Shroud's attack went into the floor leaving a shockwave, Shroud opened his hands, "Come fourth shadows, attack them all!" The shadows from all over the ice sector began moving, they all started attacking everybody, progressivly everybody's shield was being destroyed, Musashi's life points were starting to get drained. Skylos looked at this, "I've gotta help them, Yisha, Keera watch the screen." he typed in an autovirtuallization, and ran to the scanners. On Lyoko, Musashi pointed his katana at Shroud, a shockwave flew out of it, Shroud put up his hand, blocking it from pushing him too far back, Musashi in the distraction jumped up and kicked Shroud in the face. That's when he began feeling the shadows destroy his life points. Shroud got up, "1 more hit and you're gone." Skylos virtualized himself on Lyoko, immediately he felt the shadows attacking him, he put his hand's together. Light exploded out from him, he began running to the fight, in a large radius around him the shadows were destroyed or stunned.
When Skylos got to the fight, the light around him began dissipating, he put his arms out, and began expanding it, "Yisha, tell Aelita to hurry up." Yisha spoke on the mic, "Aelita, Skylos says move it!" Musashi and Shroud jumped upwards, swords attacking each other, when they landed, Musashi ran at Shroud, he jumped at him, Shroud put his sword out, Musashi's katanas went into Shroud's head, Shroud sword went into Musashi's face. They both were devirutalized. However because Shroud was also devirtualized, the shadows dissipeared, Aelita then ran out of the tower, "It's ready, we've gotta get to sector 5 now." The light around Skylos vanished, he fainted from the power Neon put Skylos on a darkness disc, then they all ran to the edge of the sector. The monsters began following, Rem went into his twilight wolf form, "Sorry Ponic, we gotta thin out the numbers." Lazer arrows flew out of his armour, killing a few of the monsters. Ponic felt 8 gashes go across his body. "Type in SCIPIO quick." said Zach, a mega tank then rolled in, "Watch out!" screamed Zach, it fired, devirtualizing him, but he took the hit for Aelita. They all went into the transporter and were off for sector 5. In the digital sea, Ponic saw Shroud, Shroud entered inside the dome, "Your friends are persistant, you will pay for their idiocy." Shroud created a shadow tentacle, "As long as these daggers are in you, you can't die, but you will feel this pain for a long time." He went behind, to Ponic's back, it already had some cuts on it. Shroud began whipping Ponic repeatidly in the back, "I will make you feel the pain of all that has happened to this point!" Ponic's back began bleeding much more, Shroud opened his hands, Ponic would feel electricity begin shocking him, Shroud smiled evily. He continued whipping Ponic's back, he then grew a second tentacle began whipping Ponic in the front, "You will wish you were dead by the end of this." he said reaching for daggers.

Neon, Rem, Alice, Skylos and Aelita arrived in Sector 5. The wall was twisting and turning, "I've got a bad feeling." said Neon he was looking at where the door would open. Zach got on the mic, "Ya sometimes the transporter makes me feel sick also." Neon rolled his eyes, "Not that kind of feeling, I mean I don't like this, something feels too dangerous and just not right right now." Neon's feeling wasn't incorrect in the digital sea, Shroud was still hurting Ponic. He already put gashes all around Ponic's body, his legs were now scarred, and his back and front of his torso had blood on it, and cuts all over. There was also a burn mark on him from the electricity, and Shroud had just finished whipping Ponic in the back and the front, a total of 850 times for each side. There were also 90 gashes around Ponic's body, and the red daggers in Ponic kept him conscience and alive for all of it. Ponic's head was dropped down, Shroud put his head up, "There's 2 more things Ponic." a screen appeared on the monitor, Shroud was on there, "Abort your mission, Ponic can hardly take the pain, and being forced to live through it all." he stepped to the side to show everybody what had happened, when Keera saw she stumbelled back, her hand was on her mouth, "My gosh!" Shroud then spoke, "I can see you're horrified, now watch this." Shroud took out placed two daggers on Ponic's legs, then tied a rope to their hilts, he stood infront of Ponic and undid the chains tieing his hands, he then grabbed Ponic and pulled him backwards, the daggers scrapped up across Ponic from his legs up and over this shoulders, Shroud then dropped Ponic and they scrapped down across his back. Shroud took off the daggers and retied Ponic, he then looked and said, "You know what you can do, end his pain, you need only give it up." Shroud then created a shadow tenticle and whipped Ponic in the back 5 more times, then cut the feed out. Keera put her hand on the wall, and teared a bit, Yisha walked over, "Keera I know how you feel about Ponic, don't worry, we'll bring him back and Rem will heal him up, all will be well." Zach got on the mic, "I hope you guies have a plan, remember Ponic feels the pain every time a monster is killed." In sector 5 XANA's trap today was just an army of creepers all around. Alice rolled her eyes, "Figures that XANA would do this!" Aelita pointed at the key, it was really high up, she got down on her knees, "Ahh, ooh ah." she sung steps of blue blocks to be created. "Nice job Aelita, I got it from here.", smiled Alice as she jumped up each blue block. As she was climbing up, Creeper lasers began whizzing over her head, "I could use a hand here!" Rem fired laser arrows, killing them, he then jumed upwards, and clawed one of the Creepers. Alice hit the key, the room began changing, and a door opened. "Quick everyone through" said Neon, he put Skylos on his back, who was regaining consciousness, as they were running, Rem turned, and saw an 5 Creepers following them, he growled. Then jumped at the Creepers, Halo spoke on the mic, "I think Rem wants you all to keep going, there's a room if you take the path to the left of you, it'll lead you to the submarine hanger." The group left Rem, the door closed behind them, the last thing heard was a wolf screaming as it was shot, and all 5 Creepers being destroyed.
The group got to the submarine hanger, "There it is, the Skidbladnir." The group saw how majestic it looked, "Quick let's get in it before XANA comes with more friends." said Alice, everyone got on a teleporter, by now Skylos was strong enough to walk on his own so he stood on one also. "Who's drivin?" asked Halo over the mic, Aelita smiled, "Me, who else?" they all teleported into their spots. "Wow!" said Alice, "So cool!" Neon rolled his eyes, "It's nice, but not that great." Aelita began hitting a few buttons on the keyboard, "Alright everyone get ready for the dive, rockets active, and launch." The hanger walls deactivated, the Skid detached and and took off for the digital sea. It floated over it, then dropped in, "Hey whoever is on the computer, I already programed on the radar where we should go, just hit the send button to give it to Aelita." Yisha hit send, the info appeared on radar, "I see it, tally ho." As they began coming closer to the dome, the sea went red, "What's with the change in colours?" aske Skylos. "I'm not sure, but I don't like the look of those monsters over there." said Aelita pointing at 3 eels. They came lose, "Nav skids, away." she Neon, Skylos and Alice came off in their Nav skids, and zoomed towards the doom, the eels came at the 3 of them. "You don't know who's at this wheel here, lemme give you a lesson on how to ride." laughed Skylos, Alice joked in response, "Wow, you've been spending too much time with Zach and Musashi your gettin over confident also." Alice did a loop upwards, the eel followed here, "Hmm, clingy huh?" Neon zoomed over Alice, he shot the torpedos, killing the eel, Alice then shot the torpidoes killing the other eel that was following Neon. Skylos still had one following him, he turned and sent the eel right into a wall. It exploded, "Ha, eat that!" Suddenly without warning a torpedo exploded out of nowhere, "Super, we got company!" Shroud was in his own Nav Skid, with 3 sharks following him, "Get them!" The sharks came at the group, Neon, Alice and Skylos zoomed forward, they fired a torpedo each, the sharks dodged it, then launched their torpedos, they all got hit once. "Wow that was not fun!" Shroud zoomed at them, he shot 2 torpedos at Skylos. Skylos turned, the torpedos missed and killed 1 shark behind him, he shot 2 at Shroud, those hit, Neon then came from behind and shot another torpedo at Shroud, it hit. Alice zoomed around Neon and Skylos and killed the sharks, Shroud then went upwards he quickly turned and did a nose dive down, "What's he doing?" thought Neon. Shroud zoomed right past Alice, Alice followed, "My turn to get him down." Shroud then broke right, a shark came infront of Alice, too late to dodge, it shot, and destroyed her Nav Skid. Alice quickly hit the green button in her Skid, returning her to Earth, "Just in time" she said walking out of the scanner. Skylos looked around, Shroud came up from behind, and shot and devirtualized Skylos also. Shroud smiled, "Where are the, what the?!" He looked and saw the Skid and Neon's Nav Skid zooming away, he then looked the dome, it was empty, Aelita used everybody as a distraction and snuck in to get Ponic. "NO!" Shroud hit mask thrust and went after them. "Quick dock the skid and get back to the arena!" warned Yisha, Shroud crashed his Nav Skid and bailed out, he was now attacking the Skid itself. Aelita quickly docked and her and Neon got out into Sector 5. but on the other side. Neon tied a chain around Ponic's waist and Aelita, "Whatever you do, don't stop for anyone." Aelita nodded and she ran to the outterwalls. Neon jumped at Shroud, with his darkness chains out, he wrapped one around Shroud and began to pull, Shroud put his sword up and it began to glow.
Aelita got to the outer walls, "Ponic can you summon a shadow." Ponic smiled, and just barely said "Ya." Aelita lifted his arm up, her shadow came to life, they flew out of Sector 5. Back at the hangar, Neon had fallen on the floor from Shroud's attack, Shroud stood over him then put a sword in him devirtualizing him, he then looked around. and realized it was not too late to get to Ponic. He exited in the Mountain Sector and saw Aelita just outside. "You were foolish take this long." He shot at Aelita, she vanished, she was an illusion, Shroud was confused, then heard Ponic from behind, "No we just didn't forget to do this." Aelita lifed Ponic's hands up, 2 shadow blasts hit Shroud, "Ah!" he was devirtualized. Aelita then put Ponic down, Skylos then spoke, "Also Ponc in my spare time I've been looking at the orb data I got when I scanned you earlier." He was smiling on Earth. Aelita got Ponic into a tower, Skylos typed on the computer, Ponic floated a bit and began glowing, the orb went black and fell off of Ponic. Ponic smiled, "Thanks guies, for everything." Ponic stepped on the orb crushing it, Skylos then rematerialized Ponic. Ponic stepped out of the scanner, "Good to have control of my body again. No orb, but I could still use a shirt." laughed Ponic. The others were in the scanner room, Musashi tossed Ponic his sweatshirt, he was wearing a grey t-shirt underneath it, "Here." Ponic put it on, Keera gave Ponic a hug, "I've missed you so!" Ponic hugged her back, "I missed all of you." after a brief moment of silence, Ponic then spoke, "You know there was 1 thing you said I couldn't do with the orb in my chest, that I can now." smiled Ponic. The others laughed, about 15 minutes later they were all at the pool, celebrating their victory over XANA.

It had been almost a month since XANA's last attack. It was 6:30 pm, the group was under the arches. "XANA hasn't done anything for awhile now. Wonder if he's quit." said Rem. Everybody laughed, "Ya and maybe a hippo will come to life and call me Bobby" said Musashi. Neon was leaning on the arch, crossing his arms, "There is still Shroud, he's taken a big loss without being to get to Ponic now. Don't underestimate XANA, that is how you get killed." Jim caught them outside, "In your dorms now!" They nodded and began walking in, Zach muttered under his breath, "Somehow I think if there was a fire Jim would still be scouring the campus." "ZACH FRONT AND CENTRE!" screamed Jim. Zach walked over. "So you like to make funny comments huh?! Well we'll see how funny the principal thinks those are tommarow!" smiled Jim smugly, then sent Zach off. When Halo got to her room with Yisha and Keera, Sissi was standing outside. "Hello, can we talk for a minute?" Halo laughed, "Stop it with the secrecy and just tell it to me right here." Sissi held up a picture of Halo, dressed in pink and baby clothes. "It was a Halloween dare!" she screamed. "And the school newspaper won't care, you know what to do to get em. Dump Rem, and leave him for me." "I have a better idea." Yisha dove ontop of Sissi, Sissi fell down, "Ah what the!" Keera reached into a shadow then grabbed the picture without Sissi noticing, Yisha then got up. "Sorry, I just stumble at times." Sissi brushed her clothes, "Dork! Hey where's the picture?!" Keera held it up smirking. Sissi was shocked, "But how'd you?! AH!" Sissi stormed off, "No one makes a fool out of me like that, they'll pay for this!" said Sissi, she said this storming off, then smirked. "I bet Skylos' computer has some dirt on them." Downstairs, Ponic was in the washroom, he was changing, he looked in the mirrior and smiled, no orb. Nick noticed, "Hey Ponic, gazing at yourself won't make the mirror give you an award, what are you looking at?" Ponic smiled, "Nothing Nick, and that's just it, completly nothing." he said this while putting his undershirt on. "Let's get back to our rooms, I got something to show you." Skylos was in his room, talking with Aelita. Sissi creeped around the corner, she knocked on Skylos' door. "Skylos! My father wants to see you, he says it's urgent." Skylos got up and walked over to Sissi, after hanging up on Aelita. "Why didn't he just send Jim to come get me?" asked Skylos. "Cause Jim is walking all over the school and raiding the fridge, silly." Skylos nodded, "Alright..." he closed the door and left for the Principal's office. Sissi picked the lock into Skylos' room then went in and started typing on the computer. Ponic was in his room with Nick, they were sitting on their beds, Ponic had a flashlight on. "So what'd you want to show me?" asked Nick "Watch carefully" said Ponic. He pointed the flashlight at the window, Nick looked out it, Ponic then opened his hands over the flashlight, and made his hands into a freaky looking figure. Nick turned, "I don't see, AH!" he screamed looking at the shape Ponic made on the wall, then he realized it was just a shadow, "You little! hehe. You know this is probably the first time you've ever actually spoken to me that wasn't small talk." Ponic laughed a bit from the joke, then sat down, "What do you mean?" Nick turned a chair around and sat on it backwards, "Well you know, we are roomies, and you are usually with your other friends, I understand. But we almost never chat here, and I've shown you some stuff from Australia that my Grandma sent me, you're a pretty mysterious person Ponic." Ponic nodded, "Ya I know, I enjoy it that way." They heard a knock at the door, Ponic opened it and saw Keera, "Oh, sorry am I distrubing you?" she asked. Nick shook his head, "No, I'll leave you all alone, think I'll go take a shower." he left the room, Keera walked in. As Nick was walking down the hallway, he bumped into Neon around the corner. Neon was wearing a black shirt, dark blue pant, "Watch out Nick." he got up, then kept walking. "Hey Neon!" Neon didn't turn around, "Not in the mood Nick."
Nick walked to the bathroom, and got in the shower, he was thinking to himself, "I've got a few friends, but we are all in such different classes, and Ponic's friends almost refuses to know me, why not?" Sissi pulled her flash disc out of Skylos' computer. She went outside, Skylos was not far from the room, "1 Your dad wanted nothing, and 2 were you on my computer?" Sissi shook her head, "Of course not, anyways see ya later." she ran off, Skylos went on the computer, he saw the words that had him horrified, "File transfer complete." "Dang!" He went outside and bumped into Jim at his door, "Forget it Skylos, time for lights out good night" Jim shut the door. Skylos sat on the bed, "If Sissi figures out that flash drive we are so doomed." In Ponic's room, Keera was talking with him, "Well we could let him into the group, just as a friend." she said. "We could, but it leaves too much up to chance, I'm just not sure Keera." answered Ponic. "Ya I know, anyways I'm gonna get outta here before GI Jim comes around, see ya later." she gave Ponic a quick hug then went off. Neon was in his room, the moon was full, out of his window, and he remembered the year was 2008. "I can feel another presence, somewhere out there." Neon said this looking out his window. He then went back to his room, then he noticed light flew in from the crack under his door, the same happened in Musashi's and Zach's, Alice's and Keera's, Ponic's, Rem's and Halo's and Yisha's rooms. The light's then went upwards and began taking form, they said, "Sissi's got a flash disc, she may soon know our secret, we've gotta get it back tommarow, Skylos." Nick then opened Ponic's door, Ponic quickly covered the message with shadow till it dissipeared, "What's going on?" asked Nick. "Nothin, go to sleep." said Ponic. Nick got into his boxers then lay down on his bed, "Alright, and Ponic. Just for the record, I do wanna be your friend, hopefully we can be later on." Ponic lay down on his bed, "We will be Nick, eventually." Neon lay down in his bed, "Damn it Sissi, mind your own buissness." The next morning, there were a load of kids outside Sissi's room. They looked in, Sissi had gash marks on her and a darkness chain wrapped around her neck, pulled tight, she was alive but just barely. There were also cuts on her face, and her room was completly messed up, "Everyone back to your classes now!" ordered Jim, Mr. Delmas then came running in, "Elizabeth! Call an ambulence now!" "It's on the way sir." replied Jim, Mr. Delmas held Sissi in his arms, "You'll be fine, darling, hold on." Ponic, Rem, Neon and Skylos walked off to the side. "Let's get the others, quickly before classes start, meet in the forest." said Skylos. Everybody met up there, "What's up?" Skylos put his hands together and fidgeted with them a bit, "I could sense the power used in that room." he looked at Neon, "As much as I hate to say it, it was from a darkness human." Neon shook his head, "As much as I don't like her, I wouldn't kill Sissi." "We know that Neon" answered Skylos, "But you're the only darkness human we know." "Ya, but it wasn't me." said Neon. Everybody nodded, "I believe you." said Rem, the others agreed.
Later that day, there was another accident, this time it was Nick. He was up on the tree, he had chains glowing with darkness around his waist, tieing him to a branch, there were knifes in both his arms, and blood all over him. Skylos went near Nick, he thought to himself, "I'm sensing it again." Neon was nearbye, and felt Skylos' thoughts. Ponic was there to, he said telepathically, "Who is doing this attacks, it's a matter of time till someone ends up dead." Neon looked at the daggers then said telepathically, "It could easily be Shroud, he does have a sick enough mind to do this." Skylos, then said, "I still sense a dark human's power here, but I'll go talk with Aelita." Skylos ran off to his dorm, Neon then walked over to Ponic. "Someone is out there, doing this." Neon then walked off to the lunch room, Ponic shook his head, "Nick." an officer put his hand on Ponic's shoulder, "We'd like to talk to you." In the Principal's office was Ponic, sitting on the chair, with the officer talking to him, "We just want to know if Nick said anything, you are his roomate right?" Ponic answered, "Yes, but he wasn't talking odd or anything, I'm thinking he was attacked, Nick was not suicidal or anything." "Are you sure?" asked the officer. "Yes I'm sure." "Alright, go ahead to your lunch, be careful." Ponic left the office, "What's going on here?" He walked off to the lunch room, behind him was a figure following him. Ponic turned the corner, then noticed a dark fog rolling around him, "Who's there?" Ponic looked around, he couldn't see anyone or feel a shadow. But he saw a faint silhouette wizz in front of him, "Who are you!" About 10 minutes later, Rem was walking nearbye, he heard Ponic scream, "Hey, Ponic!" he ran to the scream, Rem turned the corner, he saw a dagger in Ponic's hand pinning him to a tree, then saw a figure dissipear around the corner, Rem ran over and pulled the dagger out then gave Ponic some potion. Ponic woke up, "Who was that?" asked Rem. Ponic shook his head, "I'm not sure but he had powers, similiar to Neon, except, no. I can't believe he was able to do that!" "What?" asked Rem. Ponic couldn't piece together a sentence, Rem thought to himself, "He's in shock"

Rem got Ponic into his room, "Wait here man, I'll be back." he closed the door on Ponic, as he was walking he heard Jim scream. Rem ran to where Jim was, he saw a dark figure towering over Jim, but when it noticed Rem it vanished, "What the?" Rem helped Jim up, "Are you ok?" he asked. Jim nodded, "Ya I'm alright, what was that?" Rem looked around, "I'm not sure." Suddenly a darkness chain wrapped around his arm, "Ah!" it pulled Rem in. Jim freaked out and ran to get help. When Jim got back he had 3 cops with him, they saw 2 rather distrubing sites. The first, Rem had scratches across his face, he was alive, but his arm was broken, and there was still a chain around his arm, there were also his red potions their broken veils all around him, the other disturbing site was Neon was over Rem. Neon saw the cops then ran for cover, the cops chased after him, "Hey get back here!" One of the cops suddenly saw a wave of darkness push him against the wall, Neon spoke in a dark raspy voice, "I soften you in the light, and I strike at you from the darkness, it will consume your soul." Neon's eyes would go completly red, they would be hypnotizing the cop. "There is no escape from it, from the light comes the dark!" Neon released the cop then ran into a room, one of the other cops went up to the one that Neon had the darkness on, "You ok buddy? Hey Scott, you alright?" Scott would be hunched over, suddenly he would quickly turn around, knocking the other cop back, his pupils vanished, and his hair was up on end "THE DARKNESS ENVELOPS YOU! CREATING THE NEW WORLD IN YOUR MIND! YOU SHALL BE LOST TO IT!" Scott would dive at the other officer. "Roger help me out!" screamed the cop Scott was going at, who was named Rick. Roger pulled out his gun, and fired at Scott, the bullets would go right through Scott. "What the?" Scott would then fire his gun, the bullets went onto the floor and out came little beasts made of darkness, they lunged at the 2 cops, "Ah help!" They struggelled to get the beasts off, but quickly stopped, as their minds were lost in the wave of darkness, never to be found again. Jim backed up, then bumped into a flashlight, "Ah ha!" The flashlight was a powerful torch, Jim blinded the beasts with it, they shrieked and ran for cover. "Not so tought now are you!" said Jim he then blinded Scott. Scott fell down, when he came to he was back to normal, "What happened?" Jim turned the flashlight away from Scott, suddenly Scott reverted to what Neon turned him into. A beam of light shot at Scott, this fully changed him back to human. Skylos stood there arms crossed, "You alright Jim? What happened?" Other kids were gathering, "It was Neon, he had weird powers, and, what I feel dizzy." Jim collapsed. Scott got up, he saw Neon in the crowd of kids, "Hey hold it right there!" Scott brought his gun out and pointed it at Neon. "Huh?" Scott then lunged himself over Neon, he put handcuffs over him, "Your under arrest for assault and battery." He got Neon to his feet and began walking him out, with his gun to the back of Neon's back. Neon looked back at Skylos, "Skylos, you believe it wasn't me! Skylos!" Skylos merely put his head down, as the crowd of kids took him away from Neon's site, "I'm sorry cousin." Skylos then returned to his room, and wiped a tear from his face.
Neon was taken to the police station, he was in a stray jacket and tied to a chair. "This is cruel and unusual punishment." said Neon calmly. The cops whispered to each other, "Do you plan on making our lives easier or do you need some time in solitary!" Neon didn't say a word, the cops nodded, "Fine!" One of them took his gun out and pointed it at Neon, the other 2 went up, grabbed Neon's arms then picked him up, they took him to one of the jail cells then threw him onto the bed, there was not another living soul there. Neon looked around, it was dark and depressing, he could a drop of water falling from the ceiling, oddly enough he kind of enjoyed these surrondings. Everybody was back at the dorms, Skylos was sitting on the chair in his room, around him was Yisha, Halo, Alice, Musashi and Zach "Aelita confirmed it there's no activated towers, but how could it possibly be Neon?" said Skylos with his head down. Halo was leaning against the wall she remarked, "How could it be anyone else? I don't want to believe it, but people saw Neon, grr! DANG IT! I've gotta go see Rem." Halo went out of the room, Keera followed, "Something doesn't feel right about this." she went to see Ponic. Skylos looked out the window, Alice noticed the full moon, "It can't remain day forever, aren't darkness humans at their best when it's the night?" "I still sense an aura out there." warned Skylos, "I'm beginning to have my doubts." Keera walked into Ponic's room, he was asleep, when Keera walked close Ponic quickly turned over and grabbed Keera's arm, "Sorry, you freaked me out there for a second." Keera sat down, "Well you're better now that's all that matters. Why did Neon do this?" "Huh? It wasn't Neon." Halo walked to Rem's room, she looked at Rem, who was working on a red potion, he drank it himself and began to heal up, "Now I gotta make em all over again." Halo put her hand on Rem's shoulder, "The cops took Neon away." Rem quickly turned, "What?" After Halo told Rem what happened, and Keera told Ponic what happened, Rem and Ponic's reactions were the exact same, "They took away the wrong darkness human! We've gotta get Neon back quick!" There was a scream from down the hallway, Ponic, Rem, Halo, and Keera ran to where the scream was, they got in Skylos' room just in time to see Skylos, Zach, Musashi and Yisha lose their minds to the darkness beasts ontop of them. "No!" breathed out Keera, the beasts turned, "Now would be a great time to run!" warned Halo. The four of them turned and bolted it out, "You know if you feel like opening shadows, this would be a great time Ponic and Keera." shouted Halo. "Look around you! There's no light just darkness, meaning we've got no shadows here either!" answered Keera. "Forget the shadows, keep running!" screamed Rem, the four of them ran out of the door, the darkness beasts were right behind them. Once all four of them got out, they quickly shut the doors behind them, the darkness beasts then appeared all around them in the dark. Halo shifted into a dragon, she growled, Yisha then lit her hands on fire. "We get through these guies and get to Neon, sounds difficult enough!" Yisha shot fire out of her hands, and Halo breathed it out, Ponic jumped up and released shadow barrages from around him, Keera lit up a shadow beam and began blasting the darkness beasts.
In the jail cell, Neon was meditating on the bed, he had fallen asleep though by now. In his dream, he saw darkness leaking from the walls, he saw his friends dissipearing into a darkness getting farther and farther away from him. Neon reached his arm out to them, then saw a darkness chain around his wrist, "No! Wait!" the darkness chain pulled Neon backwards, through the darkness, it brought him into a room filled with white light, he saw darkness beasts around him, Neon would make darkness fly out of him like razors, "You have nothing here uncle, stay away from me!" A dark raspy voice was heard, "You can not hide from me nephew! We are one now!" The darkness razors that Neon fired would suddenly turn around and go into him, "Ah!" Neon was hit in many directions, "And you shall follow me, just as was depicted in your past. I saw you to it, and I gave you the strength you needed to begin this, you have no choice in this matter." spoke the uncle's voice "No!" screamed Neon, when he would awaken he would find himself in the forest, the stray jacket no longer on him and in his regular clothes but Neon did not recognize any of the surrondings around him, "What is this place?" "The beginning of your journey into the darkness." said the voice. Neon then saw a wave of darkness as sharp as a razor coming at him, Neon put his two hands up, no power exited them, "What?" The razor darkness would cut right into Neon's chest to his stomach, Neon gasped for air, "Ah..." blood came out of the wound and out of his mouth. Then a stone came from behind him, it had writings in blood all around it, chains whizzed at Neon weakened from the last attack, Neon didn't notice them the chains would attach to the top of the stone, then wrap around Neon's hands and pull them up and together, the stone would then begin to float. The razor of darkness dissipeared from Neon's front, suddenly he saw more darkness attacks as sharp as blades coming at him, as they made contact, he felt the pain, but it did not kill him, and it left a memory infront of him.

The images that were left in front of Neon were bad memories, destructive futures, or evil images. After enough blades went into Neon, they had him pinned up to the wall, to the point where the chains on his hands vanished, leaving him stuck to the stone wall. Tome appeared in the darkness directly ahead of Neon he smiled evilly and then looked at him, and in a dark voice said, "You will do as your family has done. You will claim the souls you were told to, you will consume the Earth as you were told and not fight me other this!" Neon shook his head, and narrowed his eyes at Tom, "I am no longer that twisted murderer anymore! I have found the correct way to live, and I will not follow you any longer!" Tom moved aside and a dagger went into Neon's forehead, then an image of his friends being horribly butchered "No..." cried Neon. Tom kept the same evil smile on his face, "Don't worry they can escape a fate like this, you need only do as you are told." answered Tom. The ground under him then opened, Tom disappeared then the stone Neon was pinned to vanished also, Neon then fell down into the ground, a strong white light exploded in front of him Neon then awoke in the forest, the real forest. "Neon! Neon!" Neon could hear Ponic, Halo, Yisha and Keera running towards him from the distance, his eyes had turned red, and he only had 1 thought inside of him. "Kill, shadow wielders." Ponic got to Neon first, "You alright?" he put his hand on his shoulder, "Neon?" Neon put his hand on Ponic's then smiled evily, "I'm fine!" Chains exploded out of the ground, then went on top of Ponic bounding him to the floor. Neon walked up to Ponic, then was blasted by a shadow blast, it knocked him back, Keera had her hands out one was smoking, "Stay away from him!" Keera, Halo and Yisha ran at Neon. Yisha lit her hands on fire and quickly set Ponic free. Neon then put his hands up and purple electricity came out zapping Halo and Yisha knocking them back. He was then on his hands and legs, his hair began sticking out in all directions, his nails grew into claws, his mouth went sharp and stretched out and his teeth were fangs. "Grah!" growled Neon, "Eww" answered Keera. Halo and Yisha tried to run back at Neon, they hit a barrier, Neon howled summoning 4 darkness beasts, they jumped and attacked Halo and Yisha. Neon vanished into the darkness, Keera and Ponic began looking around, "Something's wrong, I've never seen Neon allow his darkness to take hold like this." said Ponic looking around. Without warning, a claw went across Keera's back, and then across Ponic's. "Get ready Keera, this one's gonna be big." Ponic put 1 hand up then 1 down, shadow exploded out from him knocking Neon out of his cloak of darkness, Ponic fell onto his knees from the extreme power. Keera shot a shadow barrage at Neon. Neon put his hand up, grabbing it he seperating it's light from it's darkness and shooting the shadow barrage back. Keera put her shadow up as a shield in front of her after the attack hit it dissipated and Neon was right in front of her, he sent a punch right into Keera's stomach, winding her. Ponic then ran at Neon and jumped, "Don't touch her!" he fired a shadow blast at Neon, Neon dodged it then fired chains from all around him, they wrapped around Keera and Ponic. Up to but not including their necks, Neon walked up to Ponic with a blade of darkness in hand, he put his hand up aiming at Ponic's neck but before he could bring his arm down, the sun began to rise. Neon cried, the darkness beasts also cried then ran into the forest, Neon suddenly reverted back to normal, he looked around retracted his power, then asked, "What's going on?"
The 5 of them got back to Kadic, the building was almost abandoned after the incident so they had snuck in with their powers. Neon had his head in his hands, "This was my fault, mine!" Halo sat down next to Neon, "Let's take it 1 thing at a time, can you bring Skylos, Zach, Musashi, Rem and Alice back?" Neon nodded, then put his 2 fingers on all their foreheads they returned, Skylos noticed Neon then got up quickly. "Neon I figured it out! I saw the aura, it was not you it was-" Neon finished Skylos' sentence, "Tom, my uncle." Yisha then told them the story of what happened during the night. Skylos shook his head "I can't believe it, can I sense your auras?" Neon sat on the bed and nodded, Skylos put his 2 hands on Neon's temples, then Ponic entered into Neon's mind. Skylos spoke telepathically to Ponic, "I can sense the auras. The real one being Neon seems to only be in control during the day, but I can feel another two foreign entities, Ponic go directly ahead of you and find them." Ponic did so, when he got to the place that Skylos directed him to, he saw the real Neon in chains, another being glowing blue and Tom. Ponic ran to the Neon entity and was about to free him when Tom grabbed Ponic's arm and flipped him over his back, "Sorry, but I'm not allowing you to remain here!" Tom brought a sythe down on Ponic, which ended up kicking Ponic out of Neon's mind but before he vanished from there Ponic felt something or someone grab his cloak. When Ponic came back into the real world he saw a little boy in the middle of the room, the boy ran to the corner of the room, terrified. He was wearing a tattered brown shirt that went down to his knees and no shoes, he had indigo eyes and long black hair. Alice walked towards the boy, forgetting that after the darkness beasts attacked her it destroyed the disguise that Skylos created for them way back, and now she was in her regular form looking like a cat demon. "You ok?" The boy screamed and ran away. "You better go after him, he could get into some trouble." pointed out Zach. Alice nodded, "I'll go with you." added Keera, the two of them ran out. "I saw the other two entities in there Neon, besides that boy I don't know who the third was." Neon did know, "It was my uncle Tom." "Time out." interrupted Musashi, "You might wanna go back to the start to let us know what's up." Off in the hallways the boy was running, Alice jumped down from the roof and landed in front of the boy, Keera came out of his shadow behind him. "We don't want to hurt you, we just want to-" before Keera could finish her sentence the boy ran into the wall and dissipated in it, Alice stood there with a confused look on her face. "Uh...oooooooook. How are we going to find him now?" Keera sat down with her legs crossed, "I'm kinda new at this, but I'll see if I can lock onto his shadow." In Skylos' room Neon was explaining his story, he had his usual bored face back on, "My family has a tradition each of us goes to another world, and gathers up it's souls, by consuming the world in darkness." "So kinda like Ponic and Izerion?" asked Zach. "No, not really" answered Neon, "Ponic's destiny was to allow Izerion to conquer the planet. Mine, was to bathe the world in darkness, and use that to figure out who had strong life forces, then gather them up and offer them to Tom. What he does with them I don't know. Afterwards I was just supposed to leave everybody to suffer in the darkness and move onto the next planet. After meeting you guies, it was not something I could do any longer, and I served XANA because I thought I could use his power to my advantage, I guess Tom finally found me is isn't about to let me live normally now." Skylos nodded, "That's why Tom put his other entity in you, to force you to do the work, at night when you are your most powerful." "Hold on, where does that little boy fit into all this?" asked Ponic. Neon shrugged, "I don't know, I do know that for the longest time I've had an urge to kill. When the boy vanished this would be the first time I don't feel like killing someone, and no offenes but most of the time it was you or Keera, my darkness doesn't like you. I guess Tom wanted to use that boy as an advantage or something, I'm not sure what to expect tonight."
In the city the boy was sitting on the rooftop of a building. He stretched out his legs then lifted the bottom of his shirt a bit, under it he was wearing black torn pants that were tattered also, they were supposed to go down his legs but they ripped right above his kness. The boy sat and started swinging back and fourth, one of the tiles under him broke, he started sliding down, "Ah!" Alice grabbed the boy's hand, "Hey hold on!" The boy looked at Alice and was still a bit nervous, his shadow then came up from under him and lifted him up, Keera came out of Alice's shadow and commanded the shadow holding the boy to bring him in. "You trust us now? What's you name?" Keera got to the boy's level to try to keep him calm. The boy still was a littler worried and shook a bit, he didn't speak much. Alice then spoke, "What's your name? I'm Alice." pointing to herself. Keera put her hand to her chest, "I'm Keera." The boy nodded, "Wrath. I'm lost." "Well let's find you some new clothes then we'll figure out where we can take you." Keera stood up and looked at Alice, "You got any money?" Alice shook her head no, Keera shook her head also, "Me neither...ok I got an idea." Keera and Alice would feel Wrath grab their hands, "Alright hang on." Keera zapped them to the middle of the city, "Wait here." Keera went out, "Step right up come see my amazing illusionment!" Keera just did some quick shadow wielding tricks, then in about 5 minutes had some money. "You work with what you got" she laughed. "Come on, let's go." Keera, Alice and Wrath went into the nearest store they could find. In the store Wrath was looking around, "Just grab something." said Keera, Alice was taking awhile, "Look, we wanna blend in." "That doesn't mean take 8 years! Where's Wrath?" Wrath had disappeared.

Keera began looking around, "Wrath?" Wrath jumped out from behind one of the curtains he was chasing after a mouse, "OH I'M GONNA GET YA!" He dove on top of the mouse and did a few flips, "Ha ha! I win!" He said this holding the mouse up and smiling. Alice noticed and went after the mouse in Wrath's hands, they both started tugging over it, "Gimme the moues!" "No I caught it!" "aaahhh" they pulling back and fourth to get the mouse. Keera looked then looked at the register person who was both nervous and confused, "Uh...here." she quickly dropped some cash on the table, "People, we are leaving...now!" Wrath then accidentally dropped the mouse, Alice dove after it. "Hey that's mine!" Wrath went running after Alice. Keera ran after both of them. Keera saw Wrath run into an alley, him and Alice were going after where the mouse had run to, the mouse then ran into a hole in the wall. Alice hit her fist on the floor, "Dang...I wanted that." Keera tossed Wrath what her and Alice bought for him, they were a black t-shirt and pants. Wrath ran behind a box and put them on, he came back and looked at Alice, "That was fun, let's play that game again!" he gave her and then Keera a hug. Alice got up, "We better get back to Kadic." said Alice. Keera shook her head then pointed to the west, "No, we've just run outta time, the sun is setting, we've got elsewhere to be and you know it." "NOW!? Neon and the others might need us." Keera just continued to look at Alice. "Damn, I hate it when you're right." "What's going on?" asked Wrath tugging on Keera's cloak. Keera nodded to Alice, "We got our telepathic message from Ponic and Neon, go quick and do your part." Alice jumped up on the roof tops, Wrath was starting to get nervous, Keera put her arm at his shoulder. "Wrath, do you trust me?" Wrath nodded, "Alright, then come with me." said Keera, they both ran into a shadow. At Kadic Ponic was outside of the academy, he spoke to Skylos telepathically, "Are you sure this is going to work?" Skylos answered, "You came up with it." Ponic laughed, "Ya, that is what worries me at times." "Wow Ponic is that doubt I'm sensing." "No, it's reason, anyways anything on your end?" Skylos looked at the door, he was right in front of Neon's, "No not just yet." "Everyone else ready?" asked Ponic. "I can sense their auras, can you see Zach near you?" Ponic looked around, he saw Zach in the tree ahead of him. "Ya, alright here we go, now it's up to Alice and Keera to get their side of it done." Skylos then felt a bang at the door, "Ya, hopefully they go quickly" he said to himself. In Neon's room, it was bathed in light so he couldn't escape using normal darkness, Neon also was tied in light ropes to hinder his darkness, but he still had quite a bit of strength, and the night had caused him to become mindless again. He began ramming against the door, Skylos was holding it back as best as he could. Yisha then ran to Skylos, she melted the wall and the door together then began holding it with him. "Dang it, they better hurry." Alice was in the forest she was standing around, "Are you even sure this'll work?" she asked Keera telepathically. Keera answered, "I'm sure of it, Ponic, Neon and Skylos both worked on this one. And the others I'm certain were right, now that we've gotten Wrath outta Neon's memory, it may attract some unwanted attention." Wrath looked at Keera, beginning to get nervous, Keera dropped to his level, "Wrath, I think Tom, Neon's uncle, he might come back after you." Wrath went scared after hearing this one, "Don't worry, I'm gonna help protect you, that's my job, to stay ready to protect you and went the time comes channel the power of the darkness portal that Alice will soon be able to open." Wrath nodded, Keera continued on, "Basically, Skylos and Yisha have gotta keep Neon back for as long as possible, and we want Tom to show up here. When the time is right, they will let Neon lose, he'll probably go after Ponic, then we'll-" there was an explosion outside. Keera got up, Wrath ran behind her.
The clock turned to 10:45. Neon continued to hammer against the walls, "15 more minutes." said Rem taking a quick look at his watch. Halo was on the wall of the academy in the form of a rat. "When Neon gets out, he's gonna set lose a load of darkness beasts, we'll need all the help we can get." "Remind me again why we are waiting till 11:00?" asked Zach. Ponic nodded and answered, "Because, Neon's strongest is at 11:00, which where he comes from is 1:00 am, that's when we can use Neon's power to open the portal to the dark world, and to Tom's plans. We just need Tom to come here first, he'll be the key opener, Neon is the catalyst, and Alice and Keera and I are just the bait." In the forest darkness beats were gathering around Alice. Alice growled, Musashi then jumped up from behind a bush and killed one by stabbing it in the back with his katana, "I got your back Alice, we got 10 more minutes." Alice rolled her eyes, "That's like an eternity!" At the factory Tom was there, he had his sythe out and was swinging it at Keera, "Give me the boy!" Keera brought out a shadow, it took the hit from Tom's attack, she then shot a shadow blast. "Forget it!" "There are things about him you do not understand!" said Tom he shot darkness from out of his sythe. Keera jumped up, "I don't need to to know not to give him to you!" she fired another shadow blast down at Tom. Tom spun his sythe around, deflecting the shadow blasts then stuck his fingers into the floor, the darkness in the factory began moving, it went at Keera. "Ah!" Keera created a shadow blade and started slicing through the darkness, "No it's too soon!" she thought. She put her hand out and exploded shadow upwards from under Tom. She had to keep him busy till 10:57, it was only 10:52. Tom was knocked back by the shadow, he got up and ran at Keera, Keera continued breaking through the shadow and shot a shadow barrage at Tom. Tom abosrbed the attack with his sythe, "I taught Neon all he knows, you think you have a chance." Keera shot to shadow blasts out from under her, she still had darkness holding onto her, it peeling at her skin. "Yes I do, HA!" Keera had turned and fired a powerful amount of shadow barrages at Tom. Tom deflect 2 of them the others hit, there were too many to stop all at once. Chains then exploded from the ceiling, Keera dropped into her shadow, but they followed her because of the darkness, grabbing Keera and lifting her up by the hands. Tom walked prepared to place his sythe within Keera's heart when a stone hand exploded out from the ground, Wrath was behind it, looking pretty angered, "Don't touch my friend!" he shouted! And began having the ground explode up like stone waves at Tom. Tom would place his sythe out and start smashing through the stone, he lunged at Wrath. "Wrath, watch out!" Keera summoned shadows to break the chains off of her, she fired a shadow beam at Tom. Tom deflected it, but it caused smoke to go all over, when it cleared he only saw Wrath dropping into his shadow, Tom looked at Keera angered, "Where did you send him!" Keera smiled, "Away from you!" Tom then punched Keera in the stomach, he fired a more darkness all around her. Keera started to deflect some but it began to overwhelm her, "I'll ask you again, where is he!" said Tom demanding an answer. Keera looked at Tom, then realized it has be long enough, he freed her arm, "Well, you won't find him but I think it's time for a change in scenery." Tom's shadow opened and he dropped into it. The darkness continued to go all over Keera, Wrath ran out of the elevator, Keera just sent him to the lab downstairs. Keera looked at Wrath, the darkness began pulling her into the floor, "Wrath, I've opened your shadow, hide in there, then my friend Ponic will get you out after." Wrath pulled at Keera's hand, "Wait, you can't go!" Keera smiled, "I'll be seeing you." Wrath kept pulling, "Wait!"
Tom arrived in the forest, Musashi looked at Alice, "Alright, now you just gotta get a claw mark across Tom like Neon told you, then Ponic and Skylos just gotta channel an attack from Neon through Tom!" Alice lunged at Tom, while Tom was still getting his bearings she put 1 scrath across his chest, Musashi went at the darkness beats. Every time one jumped at him, he would kill it with his katana, "Give it up rookies, you can't beat a hardened warrior like me!" Tom then jumped at Musashi, "If not them how about me!" He swung his sythe, Musashi put his katana up to hold it, the darkness beasts then began attacking Alice and Musashi, "Hey any time now Alice!" Alice would inject venom into one of them, but 1 beasts landed on top of her, Alice quickly dug her fangs into it, killing it just in time, the other darkness beasts began scratching at Musashi's back, Alice then ran up and put a claw against Tom's back. Musashi kicked Tom back, "Now!" he screamed telepathically. At kadic everyone was fighting darkness beasts and Neon, Ponic looked at Skylos, "Now Skylos!" Neon shot a wave of darkness at Ponic. Skylos put his hand out, channelling the light, Ponic then put his hand out, part of Skylos' attack cancelled the light in Ponic's shadow creating it into darkness, they collided with Neon's attack. The 3 attacks opened up a portal, "Quick everyone in go go go!" screamed Halo. Everybody dropped what they were doing, and got in there as quick as they could, in the forest, Tom began floating then flying towards and in the portal, Alice and Musashi hitched a ride with him. In the factory, Keera could feel the portal opened, "Quick Wrath go, it's too dangerous for you to stay here alone! GO!" Wrath cried, he kept trying to pull Keera out of the darkness, Keera opened her hand, and lightly pushed Wrath into his shadow, "AH! Keera don't go!" The last sight Wrath saw before he was teleported to Ponic's shadow was Keera being consumed by the darkness.

The group landed in the darkness realm, it was absolutly black everywhere, there was a moon but you could see the dark black clouds all around the sky. There was even a fog on the floor to. Tom got up and grabbed his scythe and looked at the group. "So you've come here to gather back the souls that I've taken? I'm certain Neon is the one who told you all about it. Well there is one flaw with your plan that Neon didn't mention. Not only is Neon and I now at our strongest possible, now he is my pet for good here." Neon suddenly stood on his 4 legs again, he growled at everyone. "Kill them, my child!" Neon dove at the group, but Skylos pulled out his light whip and wrapped it around Neon letting a light shock through it, "Run everybody, run!" Tom had already taken off, the others headed off after Tom. Neon got up and snapped the light whip off of him, growling at Skylos, he opened his mouth and let out a roar, his mouth began to drip. "Neon I'm your cousin, you wouldn't harm me, would you?" Neon began circling Skylos, with darkness dripping out of his fingers. "Please Neon, I don't want to fight you." Neon spoke, in a very raspy and horrific voice, "I wouldn't want...to fight me either!" Chains began coming out of the floor circling around Skylos. Skylos nodded, "I will if I must!" He jumped upwards, the chains would snap together, Skylos then dropped a light orb at Neon. Neon put his hand up and sliced it right in half, "you're my prey!" cackled Neon, he lunged at Skylos. Meanwhile, the others were chasing after Tom. Tom turned around, and let out a strong blast of darkness from his scythe. Zach put his sword up and absorbed the blast, Tom however flipped over everybody then landed behind Ponic. Tom gave Ponic a kick in the side and quickly placed his hand down, darkness came out of it and went into Ponic's shadow, it lifted Wrath out. "The child is mine." At that moment a lion jumped from behind Tom and clawed his hand, "Ah!" he dropped Wrath, Halo reverted to her human form from the lion. "Hmm, what did Neon tell you? That you can stop me by freeing those I have taken? Idiots, they are all beyond saving, and you still will not be able to save Neon." Wrath got up and ran behind the others, Tom noticed him. "And you child, have a special role in all of this." Wrath screamed, "NO!" he pushed his foot into the floor, causing the floor to rise up, and explode at Tom, Tom's scythe smashed right through the floor, and dark creatures came out of it and began circling the group. "I would destroy you all now, but as long as you're here I might as well take advantage of it, you are in the middle of something much bigger than you can imagine!" Tom vanished from sight, the creatures continued to circle around everybody. Rem unsheathed his sword and took a swipe at the creatures, it went right through it, "I can't hit it!" warned Rem, the creature then turned and left a gash on Rem. "But they can hit us!" finished Musashi. The creatures continued to circle, and the ground under everybody started moving, "What's happening?! Tom what stupid thing have you just done!" screamed Alice. Everything started changing, and the moon began vanishing from everybody's sight. Back at the landing point, Skylos and Neon were still fighting, they had light and darkness beams colliding with each other. "I'm sick of playing with my food, time to complete the hunt!" said Neon. "What does that mean?" asked Skylos. "FROM THE LIGHT COMES THE DARK!!!!" Darkness exploded out from Skylos, "Ah!" Skylos jumped backwards, Neon ran and moved in the darkness, it cloacked him making him invisible, he stopped behind Skylos and kicked Skylos into the darkness. The darkness grabbed onto Skylos, "Get off of me!" screamed Skylos, he began moving his hands creating bursts of light form them to repel the darkness. Neon moved close to Skylos, "There is no escape!" The darkness began circleing them, Neon turned and would bring his fist at Skylos. Skylos put up his light shield, Neon's fist however hit with such force it sent him backwards, Skylos hit one of the circleing strands of darkness, "Ow, what was that?" He looked at the top of his arm, it had a burned mark on it. "Your flesh shall be seared, just the way I like it!" was Neon's response. "Your light shall be your own destruction!" Neon commanded the darkness to go at Skylos, "Ah!" shouted Skylos.
The others found themselves in a broken down run down city, it was clear no one had lived there for years, but they were not walking through it, they were running through it. The darkness creatures were still chasing after them, "Keep going! They're right behind us." shouted Ponic! Wrath was having issues keeping up, "I got ya kid!" said Zach putting Wrath on his back, "Hang on tight." Wrath squeezed onto Zach's neck, "Gah too tight." Yisha was ahead of everyone, she had fire on her hand to light the way, "There up ahead!" she said pointing, there was an old house, but it was still standing, "We can hide there." Everybody ran in, the creatures were still following and getting close to the house, "Kill your light, Yisha." whispered Halo. "No..." "Kill your light!" Halo dodged the fire on Yisha's hand herself. The flying darkness creatures went near the house, swarmed around it then moved on. The moonlight shone through the window, it illuminated the room a bit, there wasn't much in terms of furniture or anything, the house was pretty banged up, there was a broken picture on the table. On it was a mother and a father, the mother was clearly pregnant. "Guies, come look here." called Rem, everybody walked over. "Who do these two look like?" said Rem pointing at the picture. The others stared for a few seconds, Musashi pointed it out first, "They look like Neon! Those must be his mother and father!" "Which means, this is probably his house." continued Rem. Everybody looked around, Alice then spoke, "Maybe we can find something on their past..." Everybody split up and began searching around the house. What no one knew was there was someone watching them, from far away on the mountain. It was Tom, "I'm not going to let you move in like that, I have more than 1 pet, do what you've been trained to do my creature." Tom then moved his hand, "Are you comfortable? No? Good." He was speaking to Keera, who was downstairs. Keera's hands were shackelled upwards, and the chains were hoisted high enough that she would not even be on the floor. "Dark, and disgusting, great combination" thought Keera. Keera then noticed a light blue light in the darkness far corner, "Wondering what it is?" asked Tom. Keera looked more carefully, then it came closer, "It is your future!" finished Tom. Keera then saw inside the light blue light was radiating from a large orb, it was see through, "Those are souls! How could you?" Tom appeared in front of Keera, "It was very easy and rather fun." he put his hand on her cheek, "Though, I haven't met many souls who are like yours." "What do you mean?" asked Keera. "I mean, heh, well you'll find out later." answered Tom with an evil look. At the fight with Neon and Skylos, Skylos was being burned by the darkness attacking him. Neon looked at him with a horrific look in his mind, but something odd happened for a second, Neon, for a very brief second Neon went distorted in the darkness, Skylos thought nothing of it, Neon was still attacking him. Neon then sent a chain out from his palm, it wrapped around Skylos' arm, and began to pull, "Ah!" Neon continued to pull, more and more. Skylos could feel his arm's bones, snapping, breaking, shattering, his veins being ripped, suddenly he saw the darkness grab his other arm it began pulling as well. Skylos then saw darkness go around his arms, lifting him up, Neon stood directly in front of Skylos. "Graaaah" Neon's claws grew and he made a slash right across Skylos' chest and stomach. Skylos exploded light from out of him, the darkness let go, but he was incredibly hurt, the burns, the bruises, what could he fight with now? Neon stood over Skylos, he created his other claw then dug it right into Skylos. Skylos cried out in agony, Neon then whispered into Skylos' ear, "I tell you this because there is no escape now, I never told you all a plan to go to the darkness realm. I set you all up, into this trap." Skylos suddenly felt Neon's claw dig into body, when Neon removed it, "Now for your soul." Skylos saw a quick look at what Neon had in hand, it was his heart. His eyes then shut, as he died in the very spot. Neon put a slight scratch on Skylos' heart, a bright light exploded out and went towards the castle on the mountain.
The bright light flew into the dungeon and into the orb, "Skylos' soul!" said Keera. Tom nodded, then spoke to Neon telepathically but aloud so Keera could hear it and be rather shocked at what he says. "You've done well, your doing this to your cousin, proves your allegence to me, well done my child. Now there is still the matter of your other former friends, kill them and bring me their souls, and as for their bodies. After the hunt I know you shall be hungry..." "You can't just let Neon do that! Have you no shame, no mercy, no regret?!" Tom looked at Keera, "No I don't, and I will prove that to you, another time, when you shall be my servant, and if Neon fails hand deliver atleast one soul to me." "You don't want my soul?" asked Keera. Tom shook his head, "I have no interest in weak souls. Oh, would you like to personally see what I have in store for your friends?" A circle appeared in front of them and opened to reveal where everyone was, at Neon's house. Everybody was looking around trying to find something to help them out. Musashi and Alice were in the basement, "Nothin, no wait." Musashi let out a sneeze, "Just a lot of dust." Alice chuckelled a bit, then heard a growl, "Musashi, you should eat more then just noodlles, you might actually fill yourself up from time to time." there was no answer. Alice turned around and couldn't see Musashi, "Mushashi? Mushashi?" she took a few steps forward, "Something's not right." she thought. Alice looked around, it was almost pitch black in the basement, then she saw a quick glimpse of a tenticle move behind a baseboard. Going closer she moved the baseboard, "Musashi?" Suddenly Alice saw eyes open up from the darkness, and a mouth with sharp teeth, they rose, up, much higher then her, "AH!!!"

"Tom please don't, don't hurt them" pleaded Keera. Tom looked at Keera, and put a hand on her cheek, then slapped it, "I need the souls, and they will be mine. Hm..." he said gazing at Keera. "What?" asked Keera, Tom nodded, "I never realized how much of a weakest link you truly were Keera. Or how easy it will be to use you to my advantage." Keera shook her head, "What do you mean?" "You'll find out...eventually. Oh want to see what is happening with your friends? Look the battle is commencing." Neon's house was ripped in two, as the creature rose upwards, it had 8 tenticles on it's back, and 4 clawed legs, as well as 2 clawed arms. It's head had 4 silver eyes, a large and sharp teeth in his mouth. A small light appeared in front of it to the group, Tom's face appeared in it, "Greetings." but before anyone could say anything, Tom cut in, "Save your breath." looking at the beast he said, "Raksha, be a good monsterous being, and rip them all to pieces!" The beast, named Raksha roared and sent it's head down at everyone. "WATCH OUT!" shouted Ponic, everybody dodged, Raksha's teeth went into the concrete of the ground. "Pin head." said Zach, shooting a pulse blast from his sword at Raksha. Alice then noticed something on one of Raksha's tenticles, Musashi was bound to it, unable to reach his katana. "Guies, cover me!" Alice ran at Raksha, everybody else attacked him. Wrath then felt a hand grab his arm, he turned and saw Neon there, "Hello child!" "AH!" screamed Wrath, Neon quickly put his hand over his mouth, Ponic noticed. "Neon!" Neon went running from the village, Ponic followed him, "Neon hey!" Ponic, Wrath and Neon sped off behind the hill of the village. Raksha lifted his head up, and spat out a green acid, it went onto the floor and burned a large hole on it. "We go in that, and it's game over permanantly!" warned Yisha, lighting her hands on fire, she burned as much of it away as possible. Halo changed into a XANA moth and fired lasers at Raksha, they had no effect. Raksha roared and swiped his claw at Halo, Zach jumped upwards and placed his sword into the claw's path, Raksha's claw hit Zach's sword with such force it knocked it out of his hand. "What the?" A tenticle suddenly latched onto him and Halo, Raksha growled at them and began squeezing, "Really, really painful!" said Halo, quickly she altered her form into a t-rex, it was large enough to cause Raksha to lose his grip, Halo then dug her teeth into Raksha's other tenticle. As she did, despite Raksha letting go of Zach, an acid came out of it, burning her teeth, "Ow!" yelled Halo, letting go, Raksha's other tenticles swiped and hit Halo and Zach in their stomachs sending them flying backwards. Yisha yelled out, "Hey Raksha, catch this!" she fired an incredibly large fireball into Raksha's mouth, Raksha opened his mouth, and just swallowed it, then spat it right back at Yisha. "Ew!" Yisha put her hands up, the wind from the blow pushed her back a few feet, Alice continued climbing up Raksha. She got to Musashi and gave him his katana, "Thanks" he said, then freed himself. Raksha's tenticle then began moving, they both fell off, "What does it take to harm this thing!" said Alice. Rem sent a star attack at Raksha's tenticle, it went into it, then deflected and flew backwards, "Apparantly not that!" answered Rem. Raksha's tenticles then went into the ground, everybody then noticed the tenticles coming up at them.
Ponic had followed Neon into a dark area of the realm, nothing looked real there, and it was just black, no life, no plants no nothing, just an eerie feeling, and Wrath and Neon were no where to be seen, atleast to Ponic's eyes. Wrath bit Neon's hand, "Ponic over here!" Ponic turned, then saw a darkness chain shoot out of the darkness at him. Ponic put shadow in his hand and deflected the darkness chain downwards. "Come on Ponic, show me what you've got, you know what day it is right?" Ponic looked around, "Don't try to use mind games on me Neon." "Or is it simply that you've decided to put yourself in denial again and forget it is October 28th? Hey maybe it won't happen this year, don't be an idiot Ponic, what happens every Halloween." "Make your point Neon!" "My point is, there's a darkness inside of you, and you can't escape it!" A little darkness lifted and Wrath fell down next to Ponic. Ponic helped him up, then Neon grabbed Ponic's shoulder, spun him around then punched him in the stomach. "Ah..." "Embrace it Ponic, it will do wonders for you!" Ponic panted, "I...see you for what you have become now...and no longer what you were..." Ponic's shadow then appeared jumped in front of Neon and exploded, sending him backwards. Wrath grabbed Ponic's arm, "We've gotta leave." Neon stood up, Ponic looked at Wrath, "You're right, let's go." seeing no immediate shadow, Ponic stood behind Wrath and they made a break for it, "Run run run, but wherever you go, you can't escape me!" Neon melted into the ground. As Ponic and Wrath were running, Neon then appeared on top of them, the darkness ahead of them flew upwards, "Wrath get behind me!" Ponic put Wrath behind him, the darkness wave came down, Ponic put shadow up, "Wrath run, I won't be able to keep this shadow up for long!" "What about you?" asked Wrath. Ponic nodded, "I'll be fine, run that way." said Ponic pointing left, "And don't stop for anyone until you get back to the others." Wrath teared then gave Ponic a hug, "Bye. You better come back Pons" Wrath fused himself to Ponic's shadow then flew as fast as he could to safety. In the castle, there was more to what was going on, "Ah! Oh!" Keera wailed as she went into the wall. There was blood on her mouth, and her clothes were torn, she had darkness shackles around her hands that weighed too much to even lift. Tom nodded, "I think that's enough for now." he said cracking his knuckle, "Nah." Tom placed his hand up, Keera felt darkness coarse through her with the same pain as electricity, she fell onto her knees, then Tom picked her up and threw her onto the table, and pushed her head onto it, bringing his mouth close to her ear he whispered. "There's more Keera, so so much more." a darkness chain came down from the ceiling pulling Keera up from her legs, Tom then grabbed her hair and pulled it back lifting Keera's head up. "Your friends don't realize here it is like a giant chess game, they are all pawns and I'm the player!" The chain released Keera she fell down, Tom still held her hair, he dragged her back to the wall, the darkness shackles glowed, she went upwards and attached to the wall again, hoisting Keera up, but the wall now moved, Keera moved closer to Tom. "Ponic and Wrath stupidly just went into a mind trauma, when Ponic awakens he'll be too shocked to fight for his soul!" He continued to watch what was happening, the others were busy fighting against Raksha, they were all captured by now.
Wrath continued running, and then came right back to where Ponic and Neon were. Neon was attacking Ponic with darkness chains, Ponic was using his shadow tenticles to deflect a few and fight back, Neon's darkness then came up and wrapped around Ponic from behind, lifting him upwards to Neon. Neon then took out a large blade. Wrath screamed, "No!" he dove into the wave of darkness fusing himself with it, then unwrapping Ponic, "You won't hurt my friend!" Neon looked at Wrath, "I was hoping you would do that!" opening his hand Wrath suddenly felt a change in the darkness, then wailed in pain, he fell out Neon picked him up, "Child you have no friends!" Ponic struggelled to his feet, then shot a shadow blast at Neon from behind, "Let him go!" Neon turned, "Counter offer, surrender, and Keera will no longer suffer." Ponic was horrified, "What have you done Neon!" "I've done nothing!" Ponic then saw an image of Keera in Tom's castle, "Say something Keera, anything will do." said Tom. Tom looked at Ponic, then back and Keera he kicked her, "ah" Keera's head dropped down, "Well Ponic? Give up?" The image left off, Ponic dropped his head down, "Take me to Keera Neon." Neon nodded, "I thought you'd say that!" a darkness chain then wrapped around Ponic's arms, then created a mound of darkness and dropped Wrath and Ponic into it, the darkness then wrapped around them, from their mid arms down. Neon began walking the darkness mound containing Wrath and Ponic followed.

"Huh, what, what's happening?" Wrath awoke and saw what was going on, he tried to free himself from the darkness, he couldn't move his arms the darkness had too good of a hold on it, "Ponic where are we going?" Ponic shook his head, "I'm sorry Wrath, I don't know." They continued to march towards the castle, things seemed to be promising in Tom's favour. They arrived in the castle, Neon dropped Ponic out of the darkness, "Where's Keera?" demanded Ponic struggelling to get up. Neon stood Ponic up then pointed, "Right there go get her." Ponic ran to the wall Keera was shackelled to, "Keera!" "Ponic!" Ponic nearly got to Keera, then felt Tom grab the chain and pull him back, "No!" Tom dug a knife into Ponic's chest, "Ah!" Wrath closed his eyes, he couldn't bear to watch, Ponic cried out in pain, Tom carved out Ponic's heart then dropped his dead body on the floor. "Aw, they are so close, yet they shall never meet, how tragic..." laughed Tom, he then looked at Wrath who was crying. "Get used to it kid!" He then tossed Ponic and Skylos' bodies to Neon, "You've done well, here consider it a snack." Raksha burst into the castle then after, Musashi had 2 katanas dug into his neck and was riding him, "HEY TOM! LEARN THIS! EVERYTHING HAS A WEAK POINT!" Tom took a step back, Raksha made a swipe for Tom, Tom dropped down and rolled under it, "Take care of them Neon! AND BRING ME THEIR SOULS!" Neon jumped upwards at Raksha, Zach then jumped on top of him, "Uh, AH!" Neon knocked him off, the ground under him lit on fire and melted his shoes to the floor, then a star attack came at him. Neon placed up his hands, and deflected the star attack into the ground, freeing his feet, then called on the darkness to attack everyone, "Wow!" Rem, Yisha and Zach suddenly felt darkness grab onto them, "I'm done playing with idiots! Wait a second, where's the cat." "ROAR!" Alice let out a roar and took a swipe at Neon from behind, "HEY NEON! KNOCK KNOCK!" While Neon was distracted with the others, Musashi had Raksha shoot a tentacle into the floor and uppercut Neon. Zach and Rem went after Tom, Yisha went to get Wrath out of the darkness, and Alice and Musashi remained to get after Neon. Zach and Rem got to Keera, "Hey you alright?" Zach swung his sword at the chains shackelling Keera to the wall, suddenly she vanished, "What an illusion?" "ARE YOU ALL TRULY SO PIN HEADED THAT YOU THINK YOU CAN STORM MY HOME AND SIMPLY TAKE MY HOSTAGES AND SOULS AWAY?!" Everybody looked up, Tom's scythe was glowing and he was floating, he had the real Keera, still in chains floating right next to him. "NO ONE RAISES A HAND AGAINST ME HERE!" Tom pointed his scythe downward, Musashi, Rem, Alice, Halo, Yisha, and Zach all felt a shock of darkness on their foreheads knocking them out, "I did the dirty work Neon, finish them off!" Tom went into a dark room with Wrath and Keera, then a door dropped right after him. Neon looked at his friends, "I must obey!" Neon created a darkness blade but he could not move forward, he couldn't stop his mind from creating images and flashbacks.
Neon couldn't stop what he felt, "Ah!" his mind kept on generating images of when Neon killed Skylos, how he attacked his friends, old times, how Neon set them all up to be killed. "Why can't I take out these idiots! AH NO they are my friends!" Neon kept holding his head yelling in pain, "No, get out NOW!" at this point the others were starting to wake up. "AAAHHH!!!!!" A dark cloud flew out of Neon's eyes, and mouth, it flew upwards and dissipated in the air. "Neon you did it." said Halo, Raksha then growled at everybody, Neon looked at Raksha and clenched his fist, "GET AWAY FROM MY FRIENDS!" he jumped upwards and placed his two fingers out, his fingers had darkness power flowing all around them. He drove them right into Raksha's neck, Raksha cried in pain and then dissipated. Neon looked at the others, "Tom's got Ponic's soul, and Skylos, as well as Keera and Wrath. He has enough souls to finish what he's started then he can just gather any remaining ones to power him up." Rem struggled to speak, "Neon go after Tom, we...we can hardly move." Neon nodded, "I'll be back." He turned and blew the door out, and walked into the dark room. "Where are you 'uncle' this is over I don't care about any family history!" Neon saw a darkness chain wizz over him, "Family history?! You still haven't figured it out huh?! There never was a family history, I only told that BS because I thought it would be easier then this." "What do you mean?" asked Neon. Tom let out a cackle, the darkness in the room suddenly lifted into a wave, Neon saw the room was full of blood, torture devices and everything, Tom was right above the wave, "Do you like it?" "You better tell me what you meant by that OR I'LL-" "You'll what!" interrupted Tom, "Don't be like your so called friends Neon, on my turf you have no chance." he dropped the wave of darkness at Neon, Neon put his hand up and deflected it in two around him. Neon then felt darkness creatures grab onto his arms, "Get off me!" One of them dug it's teeth into Neon's arm, "Ah!" "I killed your family duh! They didn't follow what I told them to, so I ended them but your mother had already given birth to you, so I decided I'd take the burden of raising you. Who would've thought you'd turn out to be a hopeless case anyways." "How can I know that you aren't lieing?" asked Neon. "You want proof, will this work!" screamed Tom, dropping Neon's dead mom and father's bodies right infront of him. Their bodies were for sure dead for awhile, bloodied up, had scythe marks on them and everything. "And it's all because they couldn't see the potential locked in you, or rather the potential locked in the being I just stole away from you." "Wrath?" "Correct, I knew it would be somewhere in your family's blood line where Wrath would appear, and it turned out to be you. Now that I have him, I don't need you anymore. you've become useless and expendable to me. I probably would have fed you to Raksha anyways. I used you to get the job done for me, and you played along perfectly. And now Neon, I'll leave you here among the ashes of what you used to call home, I want you to live to see me rise to power! I let you live also because I know your every waking moment will be torture, you'll never be able to forgive yourself for what I forced you to do, and that Neon, is a better revenge then I could have ever dreamed of!" Tom flew upwards and began glowing, the darkness in the room drew into him, and he vanished in it, "Thanks for the power again Neon! Maybe you will get to live to see me rise to power, and I also want you to remember in your most private moments, that it is because of you everyone has been subjected to this fate!" Tom exited the room leaving Neon there shocked and horrified.
Tom's appearance was now dark, incredibly dark. He had darkness flowing around him like a gas, he was atleast twice the size of Raksha, his mouth eyes were red, and he only would strike fear into anyone's heart by his appearance alone! Wrath was in the middile of this monstrosity, he was the power source, Tom was using Wrath as a fuel between the captured souls and this being he created. Tom himself was within the being's mind it was somewhat like a morph between power and machine almost. Tom opened his hand, "Watch out!" shouted Musashi. Tom brought his hand down, darkness exploded out of it, "GET AWAY FROM IT RUN!" The darkness flew outwards sucking everything into it, Rem changed into his twighlight wolf form, Halo altered herself into a Cheetah, Musashi tried to use his katana's and warrior force to stop him from flying backwards, Zach fired pulse blasts to push him away, Yisha attempted to block the darkness with fire, it was not working! "Ah, NO!!!" Rem, Zach, Musashi and Halo flew backwards and into Tom, they were absorbed almost instantly. Yisha screamed, "Let them go now!" "WEAK SOULS MUST PARISH! And as the superior being I have only 1 recourse, BURN THEM!" Tom opened his hand, and another form of fire, as if it was mixed with darkness came out, "AH!" Yisha cried out in pain. Keera looked at Tom, "STOP IT TOM YOU'VE GOT WHAT YOU WANT STOP IT!" She was with Tom's "SHUT IT BRAT!" He gave Keera a punch in the stomach, Tom then exited the darkness relm and arrived on Earth. In the dark room Neon remained on his knees looking down, "It's my fault...why was I born only for this?"

Tom arrived on earth, Raksha at his feet, he was in a small city, he roared, the entire city began running for cover. "Let's give this a test run first!" Tom opened his hand, the city suddenly began to rise into a darkness sphere, Tom then collapsed the sphere on itself. Keera cried out, "YOU CAN'T DO THIS! What are you going to do?" Tom looked at her, "Command this entity I have just created to go towards where the first darkness human took his steps on Earth." "What will you do there?" asked Keera. Tom smirked, "Simple, command the darkness to rise, once the power goes into me I will be able to consume all life into darkness and within myself, then release it into a new form, and complete my mission to cleanse all life of existance." "You may get destroyed as well with all that power!" Tom shook his head, "For what must be sacrificed for the greater good, SO BE IT!" He then looked at Keera, "Though, I may want a little normal company, perhaps I shall allow you to live normally if we both survive, I may be able to use you as well." "Enough with the cyptic talk and speak normally!" Tom looked at Keera and smiled with lust in his eyes, "Ha, why only rule when I can enjoy the future, and you will be mine as well." Keera looked at him, "Sicko, you wish." Tom laughed, "You have no choice in it Keera!" Wrath cried out, Tom screamed down to him, "Boy, relax once I channel the darkness, you will be killed in the process and that will be the end of that!" Wrath began to tear, he couldn't believe he was being used in this way, Keera looked at Tom then thought to herself, "Only Neon can help us out of this one now." Tom overheard what she said, "He can't, Neon is no threat to me now." In the darkness relm Neon was still in the same position, he stood up then walked out of the room. He looked at Yisha, her body was scorched, Neon dropped his head, "My destiny may have been decided like this, but that doesn't mean I can't make my own!" thought Neon to himself. "If I do nothing everyone died for nothing." He flew upwards and exited the darkness realm. Neon arrived where Tom was through the darkness, "Hello uncle..." Keera looked at Neon and smiled. Tom looked at Neon, and created his scythe, "Well nephew, you have proven to be a pain. I will enjoy listening to you beg for mercy!" Tom jumped at Neon, Neon put up his darkness and Tom sliced through it with his scythe. Neon grabbed the scythe, not the sharp part but the blunt end of the blade, and held it between his two palms. "YOU'RE NOTHING WITHOUT THE KID NEON! NOTHING!" said Tom struggleing to push the scythe into Neon's face. Neon rolled his eyes at Tom, "It's funny, despite how long you've been living Tom, you still have the wisdom of that of a seven year old!" Neon turned his hands, flipping Tom, "You are too predictable Tom, you are your own worst enemy!" Neon ran towards Keera, he began slicing at the shackles with his darkness, he wasn't succeeding, Tom got up. "You want her?" Tom shot the wall, "WELL GO AND GET HER!" The wall Keera was shackelled to vanished, she began falling. Neon went to jump for her but he felt a darkness chain wrap around his legs, Tom pulled him in, "uh uh, time to die!" Neon put his arms up, but Tom wrapped darkness chains around them and pulled Neon up so he was standing, he then sent went to bring his scythe down on Neon. Neon put the chains up, Tom's scythe sliced them in half, Neon then used his darkness chains and shot them at Tom.
They both wrapped around, each other, Neon then pulled Tom towards him, and put his foot out, Tom was kicked in the stomach, but quickly scraped his scythe against Neon's side. Neon then looked at the hole in the wall, he had to act quick. Tom had chains all around him, ready to use them. He swung one at Neon, Neon ducked then dove towards the hole, he then felt a chain wrap around his neck and begin to pull. Neon quickly put his hand out, a darkness disc formed under Keera. Neon was pulled backwards by Tom, Tom stuck a knife into Neon's back then whispered into his ear, "Prepare to enter oblivion's embrace." Neon winced in pain then turned around, Tom's chains wrapped around his waiste and his arm. Neon then pulled his arm back, Tom went forward, his scythe was tangelled in the chains and was inaccessible. Tom grabbed onto Neon's shoulders then kicked him in the chest, this caused Neon to fall back, some chains were still wrapped under his neck. Tom was trying to push Neon over the side to hang him! Neon fell back over the side, but rather then being hung he floated, he created darkness under him, Neon pulled the knife out of his back, then threw it at Tom. Tom put his arm up, the darkness on it sent the knife upwards, but felt a darkness chain wrap around his arm, and Neon pulled him close, he went into darkness that Neon had up, the resulting force exploded Tom back unwrapping most of the chains he had around Neon. "See how you like it." Tom smiled, "Really? You think you caught me off guard huh, well you obviously didn't notice your leg." Neon saw another darkness blade in it, and a chain wrapped around his leg, Tom pulled Neon towards him, then drove the blade further in. Neon grabbed onto Tom's darkness chain then flipped him over his head, Tom fell near the opening in the wall, Neon got up, he knew what Tom just did. He pulled darkness up, and knocked Tom off the edge, but Tom shot a darkness chain that wrapped around Neon pulling him with him. They both fell down, down, down! Neon and Tom placed darkness under them and landed softly on the floor, Tom's scythe landed in the middle, as did the chains. Neon and Tom looked at it, they both went for it. They had landed near Keera, so she saw what happened, well some of it, the battle created quite a bit of smoke. When the smoke cleared Keera saw Neon in chains, but he had the scythe in hand, both him and Tom had many cuts from it on them, Neon threw the scythe to Keera. It landed next to her, she scrapped the shackles against it, and cut them off. "Neon!" Neon looked at Keera, "Stop that creature, GO!" Keera nodded then vanished in her shadow. He then looked at Tom, "You've failed to stop her." Tom narrowed his eyes, "If you destroy my mission, then all of your deaths will have to suffice!" Tom shot another few chains at Neon. Keera arrived in the entity's shadow. "Good thing there is no Raksha here to give me any troubles." She flew upwards with her shadows to Wrath. Wrath was glowing and almost passed out, only his head to the top of his arms were the free. Keera put her hand on the bottom of his chin, "Wrath, I'm gonna get you out! Just hang in there!" She made her hands glow and began pulling at Wrath with all her strength.
Meanwhile Neon and Tom were doing a strong number on themselves. "Face it Neon, your friends have all been consumed by the darkness! You're all alone!" Neon was on his knees, Tom walked over but he was pretty bloodied up, "And the poison from those knifes I'd say brought down most of your energy! So much for friendship." Neon then began glowing, Tom took a step back, "WHAT'S THIS?!" All of his friend's souls appeared around him, Neon's cuts suddenly healed, the knife fell out of his hand and the poison drained out with it. Meanwhile on the entity Keera suddenly began feeling more and more strength and was starting to be able to pull Wrath out of it. Neon looked at Tom, "Wanna bet!" answered Neon "And you called us idiotic Tom?" said Musashi. "Maybe you need a refresher..." continued Ponic, "None of us give up!" everybody said together, well except Neon, he finished the sentence off, "And you are going to learn that the hard way for trying to harm my friends!" Tom shot darkness at Neon, it was simply absorbed. Neon pulled darkness out of the floor, Tom looked at him, "What too scared to take away a life Neon!" "No, I'm just not a cold blooded killer like you!" Tom exploded out of the darkness and went to swipe chains at Neon, they shattered to pieces. Neon grabbed Tom's arm then snapped his wrist, Tom fell to one knee, and then looked at his entity. He saw Keera pull Wrath free, the entity suddenly exploded to nothing, and everybody's souls suddenly became solid, Yisha to appeared on Earth alive and well. Tom looked at everyone, then looked at the forest, "This isn't over Neon, you've all screwed up the destiny of the world! Now you will suffer the consequences!" He ran and dissipeared inside the forest.

Ponic was in the hospital visiting Nick. He looked at Nick sitting by his bed side, "Nick, come on man. Look I'm sorry we weren't closer friends, I think it could've worked, I'm regretful it came to this, I wish I could help you outta this one." In another room Sissi was awakened eating her hospital food yelling at the nurse, "Ah! You call this food?!" she threw her yogurt at the nurse, "I could get better food in my school cafeteria!" The nurse dropped the tray on Sissi's bed, "So take a nap in it for all I care!" the nurse stormed out and slammed the door behind her, Sissi grunted, "Grr!" She then heard a knock at the door, "What it is! If you're coming to give me the ice cream it tastes like cheese sickos! TRY-" the door opened, Rem's head popped in, "I don't do deliveries, what's up Sissi? You called me over." Sissi nodded and padded next to her bed, Rem rolled his eyes slightly and thought to himself, "Oh super, I can guess where this is going..." he sat next to Sissi, "Rem, I got my dad to bring me a Subsonics CD! Wanna take a listen?" Before Rem could answer, Sissi popped the CD in, and it started playing the song, she skipped to track 8 which was a slower song by the Subsonics, kind of a techno slow dance. Sissi smiled, "Oh I love this song." she leaned over to Rem, Rem shifted his eyes and quickly hit the forward track button. Track 9 was strong fast paced song, it made Sissi jump, the nurse then walked in. "ALRIGHT 2 THINGS!" she yelled, then smirked. "Number 1, no more music! You were warned 4 times about playing that too loud! Number 2, time for your medicine." said the nurse pulling out a needle. Rem smiled then said, "Well time for me to go, see ya." said Rem running out of the room, "HEY! No no needles, that's my music, OW!" he overheard Sissi whining in her room, he laughed to himself, "He he, sucker." Rem then got a look at the clock, "9:00 pm" "Uh oh, getting near sun set, better get to Ponic." Rem went running towards Nick's room. Rem knocked at the door then went in, "Ponic, visiting hours are over." Ponic nodded, "You're right, let's get to work." Everybody was preparing for the possible attack by Tom, they were expecting a night attack. Musashi, Neon and Skylos were at the school. Halo, Yisha, Zach and Alice were around the city. Keera was in the factory with Wrath. Rem and Ponic awaited hiding in the hospital. Keera sat in the factory lab with Wrath, "Just incase we're gonna keep you safe with us to make sure Tom doesn't get his hands on you Wrath. So tell me, how do you like Earth so far?" Wrath smiled, "Not sure, only seen a city and an alley, then the country side. But it looks nice." Wrath got up and walked around the lab, "Hey what's all this do?" he asked. Keera walked to the computer, "Sends us to a virtual world, called Lyo-" there was a bump upstairs. Keera looked upwards, "Wrath, I'm going to go check who or what is up there." Wrath nodded and hid inside the wall. Keera went up the elevator, she walked outside but didn't hear anything, or see it, she looked around. Then she heard something a low hum, but it was getting louder and louder. Keera took a harder look into the distance of the factory, that's when three motorcyclists came into view, Keera then looked harder she could see darkness coming off of them, "Uh oh, bad combination!" The motorists came speeding at Keera, scrapping poles on the floor and darkness chains swinging over their heads, they surronded her, Keera looked around. "Out numbered...we'll how this works out!" she thought to herself.
Ponic and Rem were in the hospital looking around, "Nothing Rem" said Ponic, they both walked outside and looked around, "Ya but something doesn't feel right..." They then heard a howl, a pack of wolves came out of the bushes, glowing with darkness, "Wolves?" One wolf let out a bark, shooting out darkness, which wrapped around Ponic and Rem, "And powered ones at that." All was quiet in the city for some unknown reason, Halo was walking down the streets, "Nothing and no one, I'm almost dissapointed." she said to herself. At that moment there was a laugh behind her, she turned, "Hello?" Nothing and no one, she kept walking then bumped into Zach, "Ow, you know you should be careful where you walk into people." Zach nodded, then put out his hand, helping Halo up, they continued walking around the corner, unknown to them however was behind them was the real Zach, with darkness all around him, Tom was behind him. "Not a word Zach, or she dies, slowly." Zach dissipeared in the darkness. At the academy Musashi was walking under the arches, he saw Jim doing his usual nightly patrols with his flashlight. "As usual isn't it Jim?" thought Musashi, but then something odd happened to Jim. Jim's flashlight suddenly went out, he then called out, "Hey, what are you doing? Hey no get away..." silent. Musashi looked harder, then saw a darkness chain around him, "Hello Musashi! I told you there was a little darkness in everyone." Musashi started backing up, "Freak..." Jim shot the darkness chain at Musashi, Musashi pulled out his katana and deflected it upwards. As the darkness chain went up it suddenly split into 3 seperate chains, 1 went at Musashi, the other two went into the building, pulling out Neon and Skylos. In the factory the motorists threw the chains at Keera, she shrugged then dropped in her shadow, however the chains were able to sink into the ground after her, they grabbed her one arm. Keera shot a shadow barrage at one motorists then chopped the chain with her shadow blade, before the motorist could get up she grabbed jumped onto the motorcycle, "Try and catch me boys." she sped forward. "We got a chase, let's get that little girl." The motorists sped after Keera. At the hospital, the wolves jumped at Ponic and Rem to claw their heads off, "Right now?" asked Rem. "After you" answered Ponic. Rem exploded out a star attack to push the wolves back, Ponic shot out of the darkness by firing shadow under him, "Maybe the best way to beat a wolf is to be a wolf!" smirked Rem, changing into his twilight wolf form. Letting out a bark, he shot a shockwave at the wolves and dove at one of them, the other 3 went at Ponic. "You've gotta be kidding me." Ponic ran into a shadow, the wolves continued looking, Ponic then started sending shadow blasts at the wolves knocking them onto their backs, "Just isn't fair to you guys." smirked Ponic. One wolf then stood on his hind legs, it jumped at Ponic and scratched at the air, darkness then fired out of the air, at Ponic constantly shooting. Ponic fell onto the floor, then looked closer at the wolves, "Super, they are darkness beasts, not just possesed, Rem watch out!" Ponic shot a shadow blast at the beast attacking him. Rem heard Ponic, but the wolf then shed it's form into a darkness beast and jumped at Rem, it landed on him, but Rem scratched a claw on the beast, it wailed in pain and jumped off, it had a large gash on it. In the academy, Neon's eyes glowed, the darkness chains vanished under them, Jim looked at them, "Master wants blood!" He opened his hands, everybody felt a shock in them, darkness then came out of them, it took form, each darkness was the same being that it came out of. Everybody got up, rather timid and also pretty scared. "He's split our dark and light sides." said Neon. The Neon clone came closer, "I will eat your soul." it said through it's teeth, then upper cutted Neon onto the Kadic roof. Finally in the city, Halo came up to Alice, "Hey, got no one, no darkness anything." Alice looked at Zach, she smelt in the air, "Yes we do, Zach has a...well a Zach smell, this thing has nothing." The Zach clone's eyes went red, it's smile increased across it's teeth, then his eyes stretched out, and his mouth's teeth grew long and sharp, it even grew an extra few inches "haaa!!!" Yisha was up on one of the buildings, she shot a fire blast at it, knocking it back, "Where's the real Zach?" A wave of darkness came out of the alley, Tom was ontop with Zach, 'Right here, want him? Come get him!" The wave descended on everyone.
In the factory Keera was speeding forward, she then quickly turned the bike backwards and pushed it at the motorists, and jumped off. She landed into a rock formation of Wrath, "Hi" he said. Keera smiled, "nice timing." the motorcycle went into the motorists, causing an explosion, "Come on quick" the two of them ran down the stairs. They came out in the boiler room of the factory, Keera and Wrath were looking around, Wrath looked up at Keera, "How long do we need do we need to hide?" "Well till Tom is stopped, or till the morning comes, that's it." The boiler then began smoking filling the room with smoke, "Wrath watch out, ah!" screamed Keera as a chain wrapped around her neck pulling her back, "Keera!" Wrath then felt a chain wrap around his waist and pull him back also. At the academy, everybody was fighting their other entities, Neon was up on the roof, he was having a worse time, he was a darkness human and his darkness side had been separated, making him more timid then the others and nearly powerless. Skylos on the floor, called up, being a light human there was not as much to seperate so he was still rather level headed, "Guys you've gotta figure out a way to fuse back to your other self!" The Neon darkness entity then looked at Neon, "I will relish ripping your face off your head then mounting your lifeless body on a wall!" Darkness would slither out like a snake at light Neon, "Ah!" screamed the light Neon, the darkness then started going all around light Neon. "Ready to die!" smirked the darkness one, he then closed his hand, the darkness flew wrapped around light Neon.

The darkness that was wrapped around light Neon suddenly began growing heads, heads like venomous poisonous snakes. Light Neon screamed, Skylos looked up, he went to jump to light Neon then Jim wrapped a darkness chain around his feet, and pulled him hard into the ground. Skylos hammered into the ground so hard he left a crater in it, Dark Skylos then stood over him smirking. He created a light whip and went to hit it across Skylos, Skylos put his hand up and grabbed the whip, then channelled enough light in it to explode the whip. Jim then pulled Skylos toward him, he put his fist into Skylos' stomach, the force winded Skylos, the dark Skylos then ran at the light one and during the distraction placed a knife into his back. Light Neon on the roof had a few bite marks on him, the darkness Neon then walked towards light Neon, "Bye" he kicked light Neon sending him off the roof. Down below Musashi's dark side kicked the light side into a pillar, the pillar cracked under light Musashi, the dark one then threw 1 katana at light Musashi. In the city Alice had dove at Tom, roaring at him she went to dig her fangs into him. Tom put his arm up, his cuffs on his sleeves had spikes on them, Alice's mouth dug right ontop of it, the spikes cut right into her mouth. Tom swung her off his sleeve then sent the darkness colliding, two ways at Alice at once. "Alice!" Halo was pushed down by a darkness beast, "YOU'RE GOING DOWN!" she changed into a lion and began attacking the beast. More and more came at her, Halo shifted then into a T-Rex, she turned around using her tail and head to beat them out of the way. The darkness beasts however began grabbing onto her sides biting and hanging off of them, carving their teeth and blood into Halo. Zach was fighting his clone, he brought his sword at it, the Zach clone fazed right through it, then growling it opened it's mouth. Swarms of hornets came flying out of his mouth, they were carring very poisonous venom and began stinging Zach. In the factory there was smoke all over, Keera flipped the biker that had the chain on her neck over her back. He flipped with him, but out of impulse she placed a shadow blade into him, he wailed out in pain then died, Keera looked at him, "Oh my gosh." she thought "I just killed a human being!" she then saw another biker fly out towards her, she ducked and he went over her. Keera ran towards Wrath, "Come on, let's go." they then heard a gun shot, Wrath got hit in the leg, "Ow!" Keera picked him up and ran with him to in the sewers. Laslty at the hospital Ponic and Rem were forced to bolt from the darkness beasts. Without realizing it however they ran and slipped down a hill into the river.
Light Neon fell down onto the floor, light Musashi ducked away from the katana going at him, he then ran under light Neon and broke his fall. Dark Neon and Dark Musashi walked towards them, preparing to kill them. Light Neon then got an idea, he kicked Dark Musashi in the legs, the distraction allowed him to roll into Dark Neon, channelling the energy needed to fuse back into Dark Neon making him whole, Dark Musashi fell on Light Musashi fusing them together. And by this point Light Skylos used the chain around his legs to pull Dark Skylos into him fusing them together. After they fuzed however Jim vanished, darkness then bathed around the entire area. Neon looked around, "Jim is hiding here, somewhere, using the darkness to, AH!" He felt a blade go into back, Neon turned around and yanked Jim out of the darkness, "Get him quick!" Musashi ran at Jim, he jumped up and air kicked Jim in the head causing him to roll. He then threw his katana at the tree over Jim, causing it to turn round and round, it broke the branches over the tree falling on Jim knocking him out, he looked around. "Super, where is the guy with the red potions when you need him!" Said Musashi pulling the blades out of Neon and Skylos, then putting them over his shoulder, he ran for the hospital. Rem and Ponic were in the river going down it, Rem had returned to normal form and was firing apai beams at the river bank get the beasts away. Ponic up front was destroying any of the beasts that came to the front of them, "Hey they just stopped!" said Ponic. The river's speed suddenly began increasing more and more, Ponic looked ahead and saw the bridge with the sewer opening, but with the bars so only water could go through. "Rem get ready to jump up on the bridge!" As they got closer to the bridge, Ponic's shadows lifted him and Rem up onto the bridge, they landed on top, nearly getting hit by a car. "Hey guies watch out kids!" "You better get out of here!" warned Rem. Halo, Alice, Yisha and Zach ran onto the bridge, Musashi, then came up also. Rem ran to Neon and Skylos and placed red potion in them, "You guys ok?" They nodded, at that point without warning darkness walls appeared on the two sides of the bridge. Neon ran towards one of them, he placed his hands on it, and broke one of the walls as strong as he could, "Get the guy out of here now!" The person who was in the car bolted it for safety, just after he got off, there was a loud rumer. He turned around then the bridge collapsed with everyone on it, the darkness then fell ontop of them, so they couldn't get out to safety. Neon broke out of the darkness, he reached in to grab the others but Tom appeared behind him and kicked him off of the sphere. Neon fell down onto the floor, and looked, the last thing he saw was the darkness sphere crashing onto the floor in the river, and the car inside it smashing, Neon then looked around darkness beasts were gathering around him. Tom then came infront of him, "Pick who you'd like to save Neon!" Wrath and Keera appeared from behind him wrapped in darkness.
Neon looked at Tom his eyes then began glowing green, the darkness beasts behind him. Their eyes changed green as well, "I'm not the weak little 9 year old who you were able to brainwash and terrify Tom! I'm older and stronger now!" The darkness beasts lunged at Tom, he fell down, they began tearing at him, "Neon! Stop, please!" Neon continued having them attack, tearing his skin, breaking his bones, "Neon please!" pleade Tom, putting his hand out of the pile of darkness beasts over him, "Neon please help me! Neon I'm sorry, don't kill me! Neon! Neon! Nephew, please stop this Neon, help me!" "Neon stop it!" cried out Wrath. Neon then saw himself as a frightened child, alone, on the street. A man in a dark trench coat walked towards him, "Hello boy, come, come with me and get warm." Then he saw his progression into becoming the person he was, then heard a voice in his mind, "You know in your heart what's right Neon." He grimaced, clenched his fist then said very low, "Leave him." The beasts vanished, the darkness all around vanished, and the sun then began to rise. "A new day, a new start. Perhaps for once it won't rain." commented Neon. Tom got up and ran for safety, Neon went to the rubble to get the others out.

It was Saturday morning, the kids had returned back to Kadic after the evacuation as well. Ponic was sleeping in his bed, Musashi opened the door and walked in, "Ponic?" "Not now man, gimme a few." "Alright..." Musashi looked at the clock on Ponic's dresser and waited 3 seconds, then went close to his ear, "WAKE UP!!!" Ponic sat up quickly, "Ah! What was that for?" Musashi smiled, "Hey you didn't say a few minutes, I assumed you meant seconds. Anyways while that was funny, that's not the point. Incase you forgot, today 11:30, the park?" Ponic thought for a minute, then slapped his forehead, "Yisha's birthday. I'll be down in a minute." Mushashi nodded then walked out, "Alright hurry up, and don't take to long of I'll use a megaphone next time." he closed the door behind him. Ponic got up and muttered to himself, "Scary thing is I think you would." After about 6 minutes Ponic got to the park, "Hey everybody, sorry I'm late." smiled Ponic. "Hey we were gonna start the party without you." winked Alice, "Anyways, where is the guest of honour?" Halo smiled, "No worries I got it covered. I told Yisha I needed to see her in the park ASAP." Rem then ran to everybody, "She's coming. Everybody hide!" Yisha walked into the park, "Hello?" Halo jumped at Yisha as a dog panting, "Ya nice try Halo, but I don't think it's possible for a dog to be that nuts." Halo got off then shifted back to normal, "Maybe not, but do you know what is possible?" Yisha shrugged. "Friends throwing you a surprise party!" Everyone jumed out of their hiding spot, "SURPRISE!" they all screamed. Neon, with his usual bored look, blew a party whistle and put his finger up and did a circular motion in the air. Yisha laughed, "Thanks everybody!" "I got a cake also!" said Skylos, he took it out from behind his back, there was a bit missing, "What the?" Wrath snuck out from behind a tree with cake all over his face, "What?! I was hungry and I didn't eat breakfast..." Everybody laughed then sat, talking, eating cake and giving gifts. Sissi was watching from behind a tree, "OH! Those 10 really tick me off! Just who do they think they are anyways? And that Halo, what does Rem see in her! Grr, one day I'll get in their group, and I'll know the truth!" Sissi went back to the rooms. After the party everybody returned to their rooms as well, "Yisha wait right here for a minute, remember we still gotta hit the theatre!" Halo went into her room, it was trashed beyond all reason, she saw a note on the desk. "Love ya Halo, Rem" Halo crumbelled the paper, "Can't believe it Rem!" After looking closer she realized it wasn't Rem's hand writing, Halo rolled her eyes then walked out, with her jacket. "What's up?" Sissi turned the corner, "Hel-" "Sissi, you even finish that sentence and they'll need to invent a new meaning for collateral damage when I'm through with you!" Halo and Yisha stormed off. Halo then whispered to Yisha, "She trashed my room!" Yisha looked back, "Want me to burn her butt?" Halo smirked, "No I got a better idea." Sissi then walked into her room a few minutes later, she sat at her desk and opened her drawer "Well I still got my picture of Rem." "WAIT A SECOND!" she loooked at it, it was burned to a crisp, and there was a little piece of paper left over, "Sucker" Sissi screamed, "aaahh!!!"
The group went to the theatre and watched a movie there. Unknowest to them however, outside there was a large cloud gathering overhead. On Lyoko, Aelita was walking in the desert sector when she saw Shroud run far ahead of her, "Hm? Why is here out here?" she muttered. Aelita followed secretly and quietly behind, she looked closely at Shroud, he seemed a little worried. Shroud ran to the far platform and stood there with his arms open, "Yes XANA. No XANA I shall not fail. What happened with Ponic was a fluke, I swear it! There will not be a reason to worry, you can depend on that!" Shroud suddenly vanished. The scanner door in the factory opened, Shroud walked out of it. In the theatre they were all watching "School for Scoundrels" Then Ponic felt a telepathic message to him, "Ponic...hello?" Ponic shook for a second, "Wow..." he then answered telepathic, "Aelita? Wow, you tell someone your telepathic and they call you whenever huh?" he said jokingly, "Anyway, what's up?" "Ponic I saw Shroud materialize himself onto your world, come to the factory." "Alright, Aelita, a few of us will come." Ponic then told the others what happened, and asked for a few people to come, "We don't need everyone, I'd say me and maybe another 2 will work." Zach, and Alice volunteered, the 3 of them left the theatre. Rem then whispered, "Hey, where's Wrath?" Wrath popped out of the floor, "HI!" "AH!" screamed Wrath jumping up out of his seat. "SH!" yelled back everyone. "Wrath what are you doing?" whispered Rem. Wrath held up a large coke cup, "I found a cool brown drink, it tastes real good" he said drinking it, "Wrath...where'd you find that drink?" "Well, that big guy wasn't using it, besides with his size he doesn't need more drinks." "Wrath, you can't just take a drink from someone!" said Rem, rather loud, "HEY SHUT IT OVER THERE!" screamed out somebody in the audience. Zach, Ponic and Alice walked out of the theatre, she smelt the air, "Anyone else gat that weird feeling?" asked Alice. "What do you mean?" answered Ponic. Alice pointed up to a large cloud, "I don't know but I just have an odd feeling, and I'm smelling something weird also, smells almost metallic and it's coming from up there..." "I think you're going nuts, come on if Shroud has materialized himself, we better hurry to the factory." said Zach. The other two nodded, and Ponic teleported them. When they arrived at the factory, Ponic went onto the computer, Aelita appeared on it. "Hello friends" she said waving. "Hey Aelita." "What's up Aelita." "Hi Aelita" answered the others. "I'm not sure, it's weird, XANA has materialized Shroud, but he hasn't activated a tower, it's like he's not totally launched an attack." Ponic launched a scan, "I got nothin, what does it mean?" "What if XANA isn't launching an attack, what if he gave Shroud a mission or something that doesn't need an attack?" realized Zach. Aelita shrugged, "I suppose so, but I don't see why he would do that, also just recently I felt a strong energy pulsating through all of Lyoko, but it wasn't pulsations. This was a little different." "Should we go to Lyoko, maybe this is a new XANA tactic." said Alice. "It's possible but-" the feed to Lyoko suddenly went distorted then cut out. "Aelita! What happened?" cried out Alice. Ponic hit a few keys on the keyboard, the screen displayed the message, "Unable to maintain connection, image and audio lost." "We've lost all connection to Lyoko!" On Lyoko, Aelita called out, "Ponic? Zach? Alice? Hello?" she then saw a Krabe walk by, she ducked down behind a rock, it continued walking to a plateau and met up with another few Krabes, Aelita then felt a tower go active.
On Earth, Zach ran down to the scanner room, "Got anything?" asked Ponic. "No, just a lot of, wait, something's coming out of the scanner...IT'S A KRABE!" warned Zach, he jumped up and stabbed it, more and more however began coming out of the scanners. Alice ran downstairs, "I got your back Zach." "Deal with the Krabes, I'll try to get full connection back to Lyoko." said Ponic, he began typing, "Dang Skylos is better at this than me..." Then without warning, a black blur whizzed by Ponic, "What was, wait huh?" he saw 2 blocks appear in the computer lab, Ponic got up, "You guies, are going to wish you stayed on your world." One fired fire rings at Ponic, the other shot an ice beam. In the computer lab, however, the Krabes were pretty easy to take down, then the black blur whizzed by Zach and Alice, it stopped infront of them, then they were able to see who it was, Shroud.
