Rick had climbed up into the canopy of the forest and when he had figured out the chain of his weapon could become any length he stretched out he wrapped it around multiple branches to form a crude hamock.  It wasn't the most comfortable thing but it worked, he didn't get how the others might think this place was dangerous, it was actually really peaceful.  He wondered if he were to fall asleep would he come out of he machine well rested?

 

Laying back in the hamock and staring up at the sky Rick never even had a chance to see the on coming ball of light seeking to imprison him.

Tempest sighed, and put his laptop back in his bag. "It's not like I knew what I was getting myself into." He said. "There's one thing that I haven't been able to figure out yet. Before I came here, I was in Lyoko and in a ice cave. The last thing I remember was blacking out, but that isn't the problem. I saw a ball of light, which basically surrounded me. Did my dad ever tell you about that?"

[RunsWithSquirlz 274]

"No...towards the end he kept everything to himself and his notes. I'm sorry." he replied, sighing as well.

The Guardian didn't stray from its path. He could run but he could not damage it. The silent ball hovered underneath him and before Rick knew it; he was encased in a strange translucent jelly. Cold gripped him as the guardian scanned his DNA; slowly building a doppelganger right in front of him.

Rush tried to think. "Alright. I'll tell you what. Right now, whether that thing is involved or not, it's just flickering lights. That's not too urgent. So I say we calm down pick up where we left off. I'll make us something to eat, and if anything else weird happens, we'll go investigate. Does that sound like a plan?" 

[Drago Ryder 641]

Tempest nodded, and unlocked the door to the office. "I have nothing else to ask." He said, before silently exiting the house and heading back to the factory. The teen then began to think over what had happened earlier that day, and began to think of the recurring headaches that started after he first went into Lyoko. "What is happening to me?" He thought. When Tempest finally made his way to the computer room, he scanned Lyoko for any trace of Amber. "Please be safe."

@,

 

Amber was nowhere to be found. A bright red dot glowed briefly for a moment before disappearing. A tube in the back hissed open. Moments later the lights across the entire city went out.

 

A loading bar displayed on the giant monitor. The word AMAZON above it.

His clone was sent out with one motive: Keep them away from Lyoko. At all costs.

"It sounds like a...eek!" she latched on to Rush as the bulbs exploded; leaving them in the dull light of the cloudy day. 

[Drago Ryder 641]

Tempest was surprised when he saw a red blip and decided to focus on that later. The teen then turned around to see a tube open with the clone of Rick inside. "Well, this is just interesting." He thought to himself. "Wait, weren't you at the party the other night?"

 

(This is assuming that the clone is in the real world.)

Rush held her tightly, covering her body with his own bulk to shield her from broken glass and anything else that might be coming. "Alright, I think we better just grab a snack and eat on the way there." He kissed her and tried his best to smile reassuringly. "Don't worry. We can do this. Everything is going to be just fine, and I'm going to make sure nobody can hurt you."

[Torrent505 370]

 

The Rick clone narrowed his eyes at Tempest, "yeah, I was and you were that little twerp that wouldn't listen. What are you doing down here again ? It's dangerous down here." He looked around at all the electronics, "there's a power surge going on we should get out of here and away from the equipment, YOU could get hurt." He moved closer to Tempest to stand imposingly in front of the younger teen.

[Drago Ryder 641]

Tempest simply raised an eyebrow, and simply shrugged. "You may not have realized this, but I kind of stopped listening to you the hundredth time you said that. The better question would be how would you know there was a power surge." He said, noticing Rick trying to intimidate him. The teen then stood up and got ready to fight.

"Calm down muscle heads. Fighting amongst ourselves isn't what we need right now" Dan said as he focused on the computer while watching them out of his peripherals. "Now let's try and figure out what this Amazon is. Although I do fear the answer to my questions."

Genesis had quietly made her way down without being detected. She heard familiar voices but decided to leave it alone. Using the light from her cell phone; she scanned the area until she found Ricks backpack. Another kid was there but from her spot she could easily sneak her arm around and grab the bag; which she did.

 

Curiosity gnawed at her and she decided to stay hidden; out of distance but close enough to hear.

Rocking on his feet, Dart wondered why they were so eager to get him to leave. Closing his eyes and exhaling slowly, he opened his eyes and decided to check out the factory where that party was held. He walked in the general direction of the factory, trying to find out where it is from memory.

The clone shook his head, he couldn't let these two do this they weren't allowed to mess with anything right now it would screw up everything. He looked at Tempest and gestured to his own pocket, "it's called an iPhone, it gets important news and such, you know like strange electrical problems throughout the city." It lied easily. Then he walked between both of them and put a hand on both their shoulders it's grip abnormally strong. " And no we should get out before something bad happens. Now." It started to move forward intending to pull them forward and if needed throw them into the elevator.

"Right, we can eat later. But I owe you a home-cooked meal when this is over." He took her hand and headed out the door and into the courtyard. "Here, it's quicker if we go through the sewer tunnels. Just try not to think about the smell." He lifted a manhole cover and began to climb down.

Tempest was about to retort when he saw something strange in Rick's eye. "Sorry about this, but not really." He said, before elbowing the teen in the gut and slipped out of the clone's grasp. "You know, for a computer virus that's become sentient, you really should've saw that coming, Xana." The teen then all of the pent up anger that had been building over the past few days, from Amber getting trapped in Lyoko to basically feeling useless. He had had enough, and now was the time to let it all out.

This was good keep them distracted let them fight him, waste their time. The Rick clone grunted and held his stomach, even though he had barely felt the strike. "What the hell shrimp?!" He sounded outraged, "what's your problem? This isn't a place to be right now!"

 

He looked to Dan, his hand still clutching the other boys shoulder though now he used it for false support, "what's he even babbling about? Talk some sense into him before I beat it into him."

[RunsWithSquirlz 274]

"Hey!" Genesis broke her silence and charged forward; grabbing Tempest roughly by his jacket and sending him back. She thought Rick was the ditzy guy from before.

 

"What the hell is everyone doing here in the first place?!" she growled, stepping in front of Rick.

 

AMAZON LOADED.

 

ANTARCTICA replaced the place from before.

[Drago Ryder 641]

"Seriously. That's the only thing you ask?" Tempest could feel his anger building, and it was honestly hard to try and keep down. "Something obviously isn't right with him. All you have to do is look in the bloody eye." The teen then started a virtualization sequence and had just enough time to get to the scanner. The light then filled the chamber and Tempest soon found himself heading to Lyoko. The only question was which sector would he be in.

[RunsWithSquirlz 274]

@,

 

(It's shut down. You can't get it. Besides, you can't just assume no one would do nothing in the 30+ seconds that it takes to start the program and then get in the scanner and then get into Lyoko)) 

 

"You're crazy. This is all your damn fault in the first place. If you had listened to this lunatic in the first place none of this would be happening!" she glared right back, biting her cheek in anger.

(Um... Ignore my last post :sad trombone + shrug: )

 

"I already had this conversation with my uncle. How was I supposed to know that turning on this bloody computer would unleash some computer virus hell-bent on destroying the world. Oh wait, I couldn't have possibly known, because they didn't tell me. All of you could've just stayed up at the party, or at the very least not give a care as to what I was doing, like so many other students were." He yelled, unknowingly sending a wave of telekinetic energy. It wasn't much, but it was still slightly noticeable. "Do you think I wanted or even tried to trap Amber in that hellhole for that thing to do whatever it pleases to her. Do you think I'm not working my ass off to find some way to bring her back and try to help you lot at the same time. Well news flash,I didn't try for the former and I am for the latter. That may be hard to accept, but you just have to."

The Rick clone was smirking; it seemed this one, it couldn't find her name Ricks memory, was on his side. He let go of Dan and moved around her eyeing Tempest like a predator now, he didn't like the way Tempest was looking toward the the virtualizers and he moved closer toward a loose piece of scrap metal, planning to drive it into the scanner during the virtualization process and kill the teen if he needed to. Maybe it would be better if he suggested they all go into Lyoko and he could break the scanners all at once... No to risky one might get through.

 

He could blow his cover now, the little one was suspicious of him all ready, if he attack the scanners he might damage them beyond repair before they could stop him... No, if even one scanner survived his mission would fail.

 

He had to continue to delay and circumvent them, luckily Tempest provided him ammunition. "YOU trapped Amber in there?! Somebody is trapped in there! How could you do that? How is that even possible?" He moved toward Tempest, "And now you want to go back in there?! During the middle of a city wide power crisis? Can't you tell everything you do is just making things worse? You're not helping, you're a screw up."

Dart had finally made it to the factory, panting. He had opted to run instead of walk to it. 'Too busy looking at girls to explore this place." He thought to himself, then groaned as he thought he saw a fragment of a memory in his mind. It looked like he was trying to get everyone to run out of the building. Stumbling a bit, he leant against the inside of the wall and held his head. "What the fuck was that!?" Dart hissed. Breathing heavily, but calming down, Dart opened his eyes and made his way to ground level.

 

Eyeing the elevator, he noticed how old it was and decided against using it, instead, he chose to go down the stairs. Finding them, he walked down slowly, unsure if they would support him. Breathing a sigh of relief, Dart made it down and heard some shouting as he did. Walking over to another flight, he decided to stay at the top and hide while listening in.

Whisper and Rush arrived not shortly after, they heard the beginnings of the argument all the way from the tunnel. They were the kids from before. What they were arguing about she had no clue. She turned to the loading screen and wondered if this is what was causing the outage "It's powering up...to full strength...I think..."
