Didymus eyed the man at the table warily.

"Dear...I mean, Asuka, I mean, Soryu..um, you..." he was wondering how Asuka knew Stukov.

But it's not like his record was a secret.

"Alexi Stukov, colonel, served under Gerard DeGuile. But what are you doing here? Why all the secrecy? What exactly do you want? I do try to be law-abiding...but usually that doesn't need to include covert operations, pretending to be someone I'm not, and pretending to be MARRIED to someone I'm not." he said.

Galv paused, then got down on one knee. Somewhere, in the back of his head, Galv felt like he was missing something.

Still, he grinned, looking up at Melanie.

“Alright then...will you marry me?” Galv asked, a hopeful look on his face.

Aren't these two adorably sweet? Now for bickering!



“I'm not insinuating anything...” Levina answered, taking a sip from her coffee, “I thought I was pretty clear.”

Samuel looked to Rica and Ethan, a sigh on his face. Remarkably, the two woman hadn't started attacking each other yet...

-Lyoko Warrior HQ-

“I should be fine. I haven't met a computer I couldn't access...” Azmuth grinned, ready for a challenge.

“Also...I have learned sometimes that the simple solutions tend to be over looked. Have you tried...or even gotten the chance to try, simply moving Miss Aelita and her father over to another computer? I hate to use such crude terms, but so the others can follow...A simple Cut/Paste?” Azmuth inquired.

“Wait...are you saying we just need to right click?” Ben asked, “Man, why are we all here then.”

“It might not work. And the entire data of a person is quite a large sum. Even with my computer and this one, it would take some time...And this X.A.N.A. might try to piggyback on it, which defeats the purpose. A two fold task,” Azmuth said. Despite all this, he began to smile.

“Finally, a challenge worthy of my intellect!” he grinned, “I will need scans of Miss Aelita, information on where her father is in the system, along with any data you have on X.A.N.A., so I can take precautions.”

Ben looked around, then pointed towards the virtualization tubes, “Hey...what are those?”

-Shadow Moses-

Harkness was still heading for the facility, as quickly as he could.

“Cosmo...We need to go...” Silver said softly to the young plant girl.

NERV Flashback

A light above them flashed and Kanna groaned, burying her head under than blankets. "Ughhh, I didn't even get a chance to get some sleep" she complained, sitting back up and moving the blankets aside.

Their warning usually gave them a few minutes before someone came to get them. Then they would be taken to another room, tested on and returned. Kanna didn't particularly like it, but at least Rica was around when it happened.

NL Apocalypse

"I'll go on a walk with you.....Just as soon as that witch tells me what she was insinuating about myself AND my child"

“I'm not insinuating anything...”

"You horrible piece of trash" Kanna exclaimed, teeth clenched and about three seconds from punching this woman in the face.

[...]

Melanie thought it over for a moment before smiling "Yes I will" she answered simply and sweetly. She looked down at her hand. "There's suposed to be a ring, but that may have to wait until we go home"

Lyoko Warrior HQ

"We've tried everything, but hope that you all may have an idea that we have not come across" Aelita said hopefully

Then Azmuth mentioned a cut/paste method and Aelita blinked. They really haven't thought of that.

"Where would we find another computer with enough memory to support a transfer like that?" Yumi questioned. "I thought the super computer was one of a kind"

"It is" Aelita stated "My father and his organization created it. But it may be possible to create a computer with similar components. We could use the same base plans as the super computer. It would have to be big enough to support a copy of Lyoko, minus XANA. "


Shadow Moses

"But...What about the plant?" she asked, looking up to Silver.

Crystal frowned and stood up "He's healing and should be fine. For now we need to worry about us."

The Dominion Diner

As Didymus met with Stukov, the man in the gray suit calmly stepped into the diner and swept a look through the patrons before taking a window seat close to the entrance. He didn't even looked momentarily focused on anyone, and calmly sat to read the same newspaper as one of the waitresses came up to take his order.

He ordered something light, and was soon back to his magazine.

All the time, he was surreptitiously watching everything around him, particularly Stukov and Didymus. He placed the newspaper on the desk and started working on a crossword, thinking once in a while as he pondered the various answers...

Or he LOOKED like he was doing so. In reality, he was taking notes of everything that was happening around him. Whoever this guy was, he was GOOD.

And it had only been Didymus's gut feeling and his training that would let him even SUSPECT the man in the gray suit, much less label him as anything. The man was acting completely naturally, and seemed to be hiding absolutely nothing.

He looked like a businessman. And in that role... He was TOO perfect.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shadow Moses

Shaking himself out of the mood that settled, Jagan gave a careful look around before taking a look at the facility.

"... We are walking into a trap. The facility is the obvious choice to go to. We do not have a ship, and we have an enemy that has lured us here. The plants are too dangerous to stay around, so the only way we can get out of this is to go for the facility. Our enemy is far from stupid, I believe. We need to be extremely careful."

He watched as Cosmo and Crystal continued healing the plant that he recently set on fire, putting out the occasional flame that was beginning to rise. He switched ammo type to Tracer Rounds instead, and put both pistols into visible holsters on his hips before taking another look around.

He looked at Rei then suddenly.

"Your abilities with ice could be very useful here, Rei. While I do have an effective weapon, a forest is not the best place to use Incendiary or Tracer rounds. In fact, your ability to freeze and shatter objects is much more useful than my weapons at the moment. If you require a boost of control, feel free to borrow the mental faculties from me if required."

He turned back to Sama.

"Commander, if I may be so bold as to speak, but we cannot simply move in without a plan. I refuse to let something similar to our previous adventure in the Metarex Fortress happen again."

He watched as Harkness moved.

"Mr. Harkness is already on the move. If he is taking the position of scout, it is best for us to move quickly after him."

“Then that's the first thing I'll look for!” Galv said, “I'll find you a ring then...Are their any kinds you like?”

Galv was rather new to this...



Levina took another sip of her coffee.

“I haven't strayed from Samuel,” Levina answered, “Even when we were separated from each other for fourteen years...And you...” She looked from Rica to Ethan, then back to Kanna.

“Though from what I've seen, she doesn't take after you besides looks, so I suppose I shouldn't be too worried for Galv,” Levina finished.

-Lyoko Warrior HQ-

“You see that device on Ben's wrist?” Azmuth said. Ben paused, then held it up. “That is the Omnitrix. It holds data on numerous alien species. It can provide an instantaneous between it and the storage device that holds that DNA. Keep in mind this is for a species, not an individual.”

He smiled, and the small device in his hand unfolded, becoming larger, settling in front of him.

“Additionally, it is capable of scanning other DNA and incorporating it into the database,” Azmuth continued, “Granted, it took me years to develop...But once you do something once, it becomes easier the second time.”

Azmuth began typing in the air, staring at a keyboard only he could see.

“I will establish a link with my research center. It should provide sufficient memory to hold what you need. If not, it can move the data to other places I have. Worse comes to worse, I'll have it go to Primus,” Azmuth said, “But I need to see the security you have over X.A.N.A. before I do anything. I don't want that virus infecting my systems.”

He turned to Jeremy, “I mean no offense to your skills, but better safe then sorry.”

-Shadow Moses-

“Yah...I'll scout ahead...” Harkness called back, “Hmmm...not sure I can turn that into a double entrendre...Oh well! Allons-y!”

Rica slapped his own forehead. He was trying to defuse this situation, but clearly it wasn't working.

“Enough, please. Kanna, stop getting so upset. Levina, stop being a b...h.” Rica snapped, he was in a bad mood and didn't feel like watching a three foot tall cat come and zap anyone again.

[Lyoko Warrior HQ]

Three listened as Azmuth spoke, and suddenly he grinned. Yes, he could see why he liked this fellow.

“It's a worthwhile theory. Perhaps the best we can do. Of course, we would need a way of slowing XANA.”

Ben asked about the tubes. Three paused and walked over to one, knocking on the outside of the glass.

“These are...” Jeremy began to explain.

“Some type of... Internet Tube.” Three cut him off. “They can transport a physical being into the computer.”

Jeremy nodded. “More or less, yes...”

Three turned to Ben. “Some of us can use these tubes to fight XANA, and keep it busy while we enact Azmuth's plan. Well, no use waiting around. Shall we attempt this?”

Jeremy nodded to Azmuth as he asked for their security details, and sent them to him.

[Shadow Moses]

Sama gave a sigh and looked to Jagan.

“I'm afraid we don't have the luxury of time on our side. I know it's a trap, but if we don't go in there, our only other course of action is to sit around in the jungle and wait for rescue. Otacon WILL send someone, but it would take a bit.”

He shook his head. “And if the communication jammers are long-distance, Otacon would have to move the Ragnarok away from the planet to get through, leaving us in this bind. So, all we can do is try to take down those jammers, and continue our investigation.”

[Dominion Diner]

Stukov shook his head, taking another drink.

“I'm afraid the security and secrecy was necessary. You recall when the Metarex destroyed the Galactic Forum, some time ago? On that day, there was a small Frigate approaching the Forum from the fringe colonies. It was a Space Pirate vessel. It was destroyed during the attack.”

Asuka shrugged. “Exciting. So?”

Stukov paused, eyeing her suspiciously. Then he looked around the room. Only a few businessmen and some waiters.

“... The frigate was covered in a substance not seen since the Zerg Incident – creep. I was in charge of this investigation. When I submitted my findings, I was... reassigned, and as far as I know, the results I submitted have never made it up the ladder. I called in a few favors and was able to arrange this meeting with you. You are someone trustworthy and, perhaps, noble. You also have credibility enough that you could insure my findings get into the hands of the right people.”

[NERV Flashback]

The door slid open and in came Burke. Rica slowly stood up, and Burke walked over. The man in the pinstripe suit gave Rica and injection, and then turned and did the same to Kanna.

He then led them to the door and out of the room, down a hallway, and into another of the large, empty observational rooms. Rica walked in and took a seat on the floor, and as soon as Kanna was inside as well, the door was shut and locked and a new experiment began.

“... Wonder what's on today's menu?”

"Ummmm little, but pretty" she decided, before shaking her head quickly "But you don't have to! I'm okay without one, we're just kids after all"

[...]

Levina seemed to hit a nerve, Kanna stomping over to her. "Listen here you pathetic piece of garbage, don't you DARE say anything about me or my child, especially when it is none of your damn business!"

Rica tried to calm them both down and Kanna sighed. She picked up her coffee mug and moved towards the door. "I can't wait until we're out of this dump. Get Melanie away from such trash"

Lyoko Warrior HQ

"Currently XANA is being held in a tower on Lyoko, we've got him trappened for the time being but I can't guarantee that he won't find a way out" Aelita explained.

Yumi meanwhile looked over to Ben "Those are the scanners" she noted "It's how we get to Lyoko when we need to fight XANA. It puts us on a bit more of an even playing field...Waaaaait, Jeremy! You aren't seriously considering letting them go into Lyoko!"

"Sweet! We get to go into the internet?" Jade exclaimed happily "I've never done THAT before!"

"Well Jordan and Molly did pretty well helping us" Aelita reasoned.

"Yeah! We did great!" Molly noted "...Well before Jordan got possessed and stuff..."


NERV Flashback

Burke had come in and injected them with something...Whatever it was it was now burning Kanna's arm. And not like the allergic type of burning...It felt hot on her skin.

She rubbed the spot uncomfortably and took a seat beside the boy.

....well at least she didn't have to worry about the cold right now.

"It's hot....Really hot..." she mumbled.

Didymus paused.

"...very well." he said. "Pass off your information, if you desire."

He reported, usually, directly to EarthCom.

"Also, shall we eat? I'm sure that the "missus" is famished after that run." he grinned a bit. "Or are you already finished?"

“Alright then,” Galv smiled, and then stood back up, “I can't wait until we get back to Earth...or any sort of planet...I'd like to go to a park again. That was fun...”

He grinned at Melanie, “I know what we can do now! We can go and train some more!”



Levina glared at Rica, as did Samuel, considering Kanna's own actions didn't exactly excuse her. Ethan merely sighed.

Before Samuel or Levina could say something, a distraction came, as the door opened.

Erin was a mess, her hair disheveled and unkempt, dark circles under her eyes, and a creepy as heck grin on her face, humming softly to herself as she entered the dining area. She seemed to be swaying slightly though, like she might fall over at any second.

-Lyoko Warrior HQ-

Azmuth looked at Jeremy's computer, inspecting the firewall he had in place to keep X.A.N.A. At bay.

“Rather good, young man,” Azmuth said, “Tell me, after this, would you be interested in working for me? I'm always on the lookout for sharp minds.”

He started typing at the computer now, though slowed since it was not a keyboard meant for Galvans.

“Alright...I believe he is contained for now. I'll start the movement procedure. Aelita, you'll have to go back into the computer. This is not familiar territory for me, and I'd rather not have copying errors if you're still, and I apologize for the term, still active, when it's taking place,” Azmuth added, “And my offer of a job extends to you as well.”

He hit a key, then turned to everyone.

“It is quite possible that X.A.N.A. may escape the firewall protection. I will be too busy to do anything about that. Third, I trust whatever judgment you might have. If X.A.N.A. escapes, do whatever is needed to stop him...If this program gets access to my computers...I'm afraid of what might occur,” Azmuth warned them.

Rica saw Kanna headed towards the door and he stood up, finished his orange juice, and followed after her. He expected Kanna would be stopped by another of Levina's sarcastic comments before she left, but if somehow Kanna did leave the room, Rica wanted to talk to her.

Then, Erin entered the room and Rica froze. That girl... she had been in love with Jason, and given the recent revelation... Rica closed his eyes and shook his head. What could he say? He knew Kanna very well and hadn't found a way to decrease her depression – what chance did he have to help Erin?

[Lyoko Warrior HQ]

Jordan coughed and scratched his neck. “I didn't MEAN to get possessed...”


“Of course we have to go. Stopping that XANA creature is best done from the inside. Well, I could write a program that would wipe it – but that may effect the hard drive and destroy Aelita as well. Can't have that, so we'll do it the hard way.” The Third said, nodding.

Three wasn't afraid. The Third Doctor totally knows Kung Fu. Venutian Kung Fu.

[NERV Flashback]

Rica looked over to Kanna. She had been complaining about the cold back in their room, and now she was apparently too hot. He chuckled.

“Well, I doubt my cuddling idea from earlier will help with the heat. Still, it's on the table.”

Suddenly he felt a flash of pain, and he clutched his forehead. It was like a sharp pressure on the back of his eyeballs, and he hated that feeling.

[Dominion Diner]

Stukov took a large swig of his drink, and then leaned back and flashed a grin.

“Good. Thank you. I appreciate your help, Colonel.”

He paused and leaned back.

The waiter soon came, and Stukov ordered something. Asuka did as well, but as she did she kept looking around the room and then frowning.

He may have suspected something as well...still.

"Something wrong, dear?" he asked.

Kanna wanted so much to turn around and punch Levina, make her hurt as much as she did right now, but instead she kept going towards the door.

Until she saw Erin walk in, as if she was in some sort of trance. The girl looked positively horrible, but Kanna couldn't say anything. She really didn't know the extent of Erin and Jason's previous relationship. If she had known she might have hurt someone.

The woman looked over, sighed, and left the room. While she never said it, she hoped the girl would be alright...

[...]

"Training? Uh sure!" Melanie said, taking the boy by the hand and heading out of the room.

Training would get her mind off things...hopefully.

Lyoko Warrior HQ

Aelita smiled, moving beside Azmuth to type a few things. She nodded to him as he mentioned her going back into Lyoko. "So it's settled then, which of you would like to go on Lyoko?"

Jade's hand instantly went up "Oh oh meeee!"

Aelita laughed "Alright, anyone else?"


NERV Flashback

Rica clutched his forehead and Kanna took notice, rushing over to the boy and inspecting him closely. "A-Are you okay?" she asked anxiously.

[The Dominion Diner]

Asuka shook her head, and absently looked at the food in front of her. Of course, she had already eaten at the hotel and didn't want a bite of anything, so she just sat back and stayed on edge, looking around every now and then.

“I just get this weird feeling like we're being watched.” She sighed.


“We are.” Stukov said with a small grin. “... by more than one person, too, it would seem.”

[NL Apocalypse]

Rica frowned as he looked from Kanna to Erin. He DID know the extent of Erin and Jason's relationship – or at least he strongly suspected it. Rica paused and thought about saying something. He felt like he should... but he didn't know what, so instead he just followed Kanna into the hallway.

[Lyoko Warrior HQ]

“I'm going.” The Third said, turning to Aelita. “I'd rather like to see Lyoko firsthand.”

Kevin paused, looking to Ben and Gwen. He wasn't sure if he should go or not, and those two had a way of calling the shots/dragging him into trouble anyway.


“Molly?” Jordan looked to his redheaded friend, wondering if she would be going back. All things considered, Jordan wasn't particularly wanting to.

[NERV Flashback]

“I'm... fine.” Rica muttered with strain in his voice. He felt another painful rush in his eyes and leaned over, slumping against Kanna for support. “It's... probably just the side effects of what they're doing...”

Galv smiled, taking Melanie's hand as they exited the room.

“I believe the training area is this way...” Galv said to himself, leading Melanie down the hallway. He wondered if they'd run into anyone...



Levina glanced to Erin, but was silent now, Kanna leaving the room.

“I don't like that woman...” Levina frowned.

“Honestly, neither do I...” Samuel sighed, looking to Ethan, “What do you see in her?”

“She's strong...” Ethan answered, “There's more, but explaining this to both of you would be an exercise in futility...”

Erin wandered into the kitchen...

-Azmuth Science Research Facility-

“Don't have everyone go. I may need someone to get me things here,” Azmuth spoke up, as he typed at his computer, establishing a connection to Lyoko.

“I'm going,” Ben said, after Jade volunteered. “Man...I wish I could use Upgrade...He'd be helpful in the computer world.”

Azmuth sighed, then motioned Ben over, who bent down.

Azmuth pushed a few buttons then fiddled with the Omnitrix.

“There. You can use...Upgrade...for now. But be careful, getting to wired into the data could, well...it wouldn't be good,” Azmuth warned. Ben nodded, grinning.

“This should be fun,” Ben said, heading for the tubes, “And oh...Little Prince...”

Ben turned back, looking towards the small Time Lord, “You wait here, okay? It probably won't be safe where we're going.”

“Well, if Molly's going, I'm going,” Odd said, “I can't really do anything out here, and they need someone familiar with Lyoko, just in case.”

-Mobius: Democracy Headquarters-

“Knucks, I'm not even sure what a President does...” Sonic sighed, slumping in his seat. “Fine...If I get elected, I'll be President, but I'm not going to go campaign...”



“Do you think he's near?” Shadow frowned, as he and Amy wandered through the tents. They were nearing the tent with Sonic, Knuckles, and Amadeus...

It was a vicious Land Shark!

“Well, if we're going, let's get going. The longer we wait, the better the chances XANA will escape and we'll have another, much larger mess on our hands.” Three said, approaching one of the visualization pods.

Jeremy typed up something on the computer, his hands flying faster than what seemed normal. “Hopefully the 'cut and paste' won't take too long, but I'd expect XANA will go all out to stop us, so be careful.”

[Shadow Moses]

“...”

Sama looked up as a giant land shark jumped down. If killer plants had been out of place, this was really bizarre. He jumped back instinctively and looked to the others.

“Okay, I'm start to think we're not gonna catch any breaks on this one,”


Rei moved to the side and quickly launched into an attack. She drew a pistol and fired at the massive shark, while the temperature around her lowered drastically.

[Mobius: Democracy HQ]

Knuckles shook his head, crossed his arms, and leaned against the wall.

“Doesn't look like you'll have too... but you do have to help convince the Houses to even allow an election. If you really want democracy, you won't give up just because you're likely to win, will you?”
