"Oh, that's good. Head for the scanners. Aelita and Odd are already there waiting for you." The elevator closed.
                          
"Okay, we've got to get you away from this computer," Sissi murmured.
                          
"Huh? Why?"
                          
"Because you can't be this clueless."
                          
"Like you are with-" Jeremie didn't finish when he saw Sissi's sad frown. "Uh, nevermind."
                          
"Thanks for not mentioning anything. What's going on with XANA?"
                          
"He's sent a bunch of monsters to Sector Five, but I don't know what they're doing there." Jeremie typed up the location. "It seems like they're all in a central room right underneath the entry point."
                          
"Can we get in there when we go into Sector Five?"
                          
"No, you have to get to the outer dome. From there, it's straight down the southern end of the sphere." Sissi nodded and went down to the scanner with the rest.
                          
A "virtualization" away, the whole team was on Ice Sector. Aelita and Yumi hopped on the overwing while Ulrich jumped on the overbike. Odd got on his overboard. "Need a lift, your majesty?" Odd said. Sissi smirked as Aelita and Yumi giggled.
                          
"No thanks, I'll hop."
                          
"Hop?" With one stomp, Sissi flew forward and rebounded ahead. "WHOA!"
                          
"When did she learn that?" Ulrich asked.
                          
"You've missed a lot over the break," Aelita winked.
                          
"Let's go!" The team charged forward toward the edge of the sector.
                          
"HAHA!" Sissi laughed. She bound and rebound like a leaping gazelle. As they came to a narrow valley, Sissi jumped to the side and jumped from one side to the next. She richeted out like a bullet. "HAHAHA WHOA!"
                          
"Easy, Mrs. Royalty. You're nearing the edge of the sector," Jeremie said.
                          
"He's so rude when he's directing," Sissi muttered to Aelita, who nodded.
                          
The team finally made their way into the southern tip of Sector Five. They looked up into a huge airy space with jutting blue blocks on the walls where Creepers and Mantas shot at a baby-blue ball of light protected by two cube shields. "Okay, that can't be good," Ulrich muttered.
                          
"If XANA's trying to destroy it, then it must be important," Jeremie said. "Get rid of those monsters."
                          
"Come on!" They ran up the jutting blocks while Mantas flew down from above. Yumi and Sissi halted.
                          
"You guys get going. We'll hold them off," Yumi shouted. She deflected the lasers as Sissi shot her rings at the Manta, blowing it to bits. "Has your aim gotten better?"
                          
"No, I'm just luckier for now," Sissi joked. A stray shot from the back nearly got her. Sissi spun around and blast the Creeper to pieces.
                          
"AHH!"
                          
"Yumi!" Sissi turned back and saw Yumi de-virtualized. Another Manta soared from above to attack. "Okay, time to test my luck." The Manta dived below the platform. Sissi ran and jumped. She stomped the air, sending Punch Rings right into the Manta's flat head, and then flew towards another platform with another Creeper on it. Sissi blocked two of its lasers and smashed the Creeper to pieces, landing perfectly. "Okay," She panted, "that was easy enough."
                          
Pew Pew!
                          
"AHH!" Suddenly, Sissi woke up in the scanner, plopping onto the mattress. "Spoke too soon," She groaned. Yumi slung Sissi's arm around her shoulders. "Ahh! My leg."
