Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ricky's stomach rumbled. He groaned and sat up on his bed. 'I guess food would help......' He puts his shirt back on along with his favorite jeans jacket and turned off the stereo. He passes the girl on girl with the funny spelled name on his way into the cafeteria. Watching her exit and Ricky enter is the school genius who's parents just died and another girl Ricky had never seen around before. He pauses for a moment, but continues on to pick up a tray and have food shoveled onto his plate. He took no notice to what it was and sat down by himself near the back wall of the cafeteria. He began eating mechanically, not even noticing what the food tasted like and lets his mind wander.

Ricky snaps out of his daze when someone sits at his table. He stiffens, and glances up of a split second before looking down at his food. It's the girl that was watching the girl in crutches. Ricky remained silent and continued to consume his meal.

Continued failure will not be acceptable.

Understood.

You will complete your mission before any humans interfere. And I know they will. They always do.

Of course Master X.A.N.A.

You'll never beat me X.A.N.A. I was made to beat you. And you won't trap me again.

Pest. You shall be destroyed.

That's what you said last time. And all the times before.

Amber looked up and continued to eat her food. She looked down while saying. "Hey..uh..my name is Amber."

Krystye got up and picked up her crutches. She continued off to her room.

Ricky relaxed a little. "It's okay. It's that hard to scare me." He manages to look at Amber for a couple seconds and crack a weak smile before looking back down. 'Why is she talking to me?...'

The girl left and Ricky was alone. He let out a sigh and kept eating.

The pulsations began and Ten pinpointed their location. Jungle. It would be a little hike from the nearest tower to the active one but it wasn't anything different that he's experienced. Ten flew through the data stream and ended in the desired location. Now for war......

(So is it safe to assume that Amber is gonna be possessed by XANA?)

Subject connection established. Objective: find and destroy the Belpois child.

Ricky takes a glance out the window and sees the girl that was sitting with him just standing there. Then black smoke rises up from no where to meet her. Ricky gives a quiet yelp and closes his eyes and shakes his head. When he looks back it's just her. 'Stupid imagination.....'

Ten scopes out the area. No monsters. No Bane. So far so good. He begins to run in the direction of the active tower.

Objective: Locate Ten and Destroy. Initiate. Bane steps out of the active tower. And waits. Ten will come. He find he has only 3 blocks to assist him. He will have to strike quickly and precisely.

Krystye heard a scream coming from the cafeteria. She went back towards there to see who screamed. She was well aware what was going on.
