Ulrich362: Things just got very bad.
bopdog111: They all got to a room together, and have new allies, and new enemies. Of course they got ambushed.
Ulrich362: True. Hornets, Kankrelats, and at least one Tarantula... and that's likely just the start.
bopdog111: What can be next against them?

"Not good." Panther frowned.
"Fools." Blood Shepherd sneered before firing blasts from his revolver like arm hitting some of XANA's monsters causing them to vanish.
"More specimen. This is making my blood boil." Dr. Genome grinned as the Knights hopped on their Duel Boards.
"This isn't for fun Genome." Faust reminded.
"I know." Dr. Genome nodded as they sped firing blasts.
Some of the hornets dodged and fired blasts at the Hanoi while two more Tarantulas approached before taking aim and firing at the rest of the group.
Flame called, "Activating Protection Program!"
A red shield appeared protecting them from the blast.
"Your offensive programs are ready to go!" Baira told the rest of the Lyoko Warriors.
Suddenly a massive laser hit Baira, Aso, and Dr. Genome. A shield popped up protecting them from it but made them stumble in the air as Dr. Genome grunted, "Okay which one of these fools did that?"
Another laser hit shattering the shield as they saw three black spheres rolling towards them.
"Megatanks!" Amazon cried seeing that.
"Now that is just playing dirty!" Ai yelled.
Panther ran to them.
"Well, it could be worse." Panther mentioned. "I doubt XANA would send that thing too."
The Megatanks pulled back attempting to blast only for Panther to jump on one, and point his fist at the spot where XANA's eye is at blasting it causing it to roll back in a big force colliding against one of the Tarantulas, "Ulrich, ya set!?"
"You need to ask?" Samurai smirked. "Alright time to see how much the Hanoi could do, Triplicate!"
He made several clones charging in to battle XANA's monsters.
Ai got out of Playmaker's Duel Disk who cried, "Ai!"
"Sorry unlocked myself!" Ai told him before charging a blast, "Okay take this!"
He fired a small blast destroying a Hornet continuing to fight while Flame kept the others safe while Lightning was meditating as light build.
Flame suddenly cried out in agony.
"Flame?" Soulburner asked seeing that, "Is the barrier hard to keep up?"
A blue laser had hit Flame and he was freezing solid.
Seeing that Soulburner took cover for him, "What passed through the barrier!?"
"I... wasn't protecting myself." Flame admitted. "I was focusing on the others."
Aqua went, and started to focus healing Flame from the blast, "Keep focusing on the barrier Flame."
Flame nodded. "Right."
Soon some Bloks crawled in catching Blood Shepherd's attention attacking them as they vanished as they continued battling them.
Lightning then opened his eyes, "Flame, extend the barrier to everyone!"
Flame nodded doing so only for the Barrier to suddenly vanish.
Lightning then called, "You abominations of Cyberse Codes eat this!"
He charged a light attack extended from him in a orb to the whole room. He never got the chance as something grabbed him.
"Gah!" Lightning struggled calling, "Bit Boot!"
At that several Bits, and Boots appeared in to free Lightning.
"It's pointless to struggle, the Scyphozoa is indestructible." XANA's voice echoed as the squid monster captured all six of the Ignis.
"Ah hey!" Ai cried being grabbed.
"Get these slimy things off me!" Windy yelled.
"Stop!" Earth called out.
"Let me go!" Aqua yelled.
"Get off of me!" Flame cried.
"Guys!" Blue Maiden cried seeing this.
Blood Shepherd aimed, "Be gone!"
He fired a blast at the Scyphozoa. The blast hit but didn't do anything as different colored energy flowed from the Scyphozoa's tentacles into its brain as the Ignis all cried out in agony.
"Guys! Do something!" Hard-Drive called to the Lyoko Warriors who looked over.
'I hope they gave me enough.' Panther thought before taking aim. "Laser Arrow!"
He fired which hit a barrier as Earth screamed breaking free with all his might, "DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ME, XANA!"
"What?" XANA questioned.
Soon his strength broke him out as he breathed before flying, "Aqua!"
He reached pulling back the tentacle holding her with his strength.
"How are you doing this?" XANA questioned angrily.
"Each Ignis has a trait you would never gain! My trait is quick speed! Aqua's has healing, Windy uses stronger Data Material, Flame has strong willpower, and Ai has wisdom!" Lightning yelled, "As a group we cannot be beat!"
Earth freed Aqua as she got out while he grabbed the two Tentacles, "Let me borrow your toy XANA! HAAAAA!"
At that he used his strength to pull the Scyphozoa to where it crashed on several of XANA's monsters causing them to vanish before swinging it to where it bashed against several more careful about the group as Ai was screaming waving his arms around panicking at the spinning before Earth let go causing it to crash against the two other Megatanks as it's grip on the other Ignis loosen.
"Interesting, and then pray tell do you know my own trait is?" XANA inquired.
They gotten out as Ai yelled, "Being insane for conquest is what!"
They heard laughter.
"Not quite, my personal trait curtesy of Lightning himself is creating new data at will." XANA replied. "Though I have an offer for you, a gauntlet of sorts to reach me."
"And what makes you think we will take up on your offer?" Windy questioned.
"Because if you don't I'll simply erase your origins... all of them." XANA replied. "Aqua was it, you can tell I'm being truthful can't you?"
They turned to Aqua who started with her glowing eyes before gasping stopping, "T-There is no deception... But that shouldn't be possible... Wait, unless that monster that grabbed us-"
"I planned on taking your data and using it to create a new Monster but wasn't able to do that." XANA told them. "Now, as for my offer. The six Ignis and just the six Ignis will duel AI of my creation using decks I've learned about using a new set of rules. Win and you can come find me and Aelita... no strings attached."
"And if you win?" Lightning asked narrowing his eyes.
"If I win, I'll let William answer that." XANA told him.
"Not sure if I like that answer." Ai admitted before sighing, "What we do Lightning?"
Lightning gave thought before turning to the group, "Be careful if we fall."
They nodded as the Monsters vanished and six humanoid figures with XANA's symbol in place of eye appeared. They meditated before Echo, a water being, Earth's wooden avatar, the Ghost Ai used against Rosaly, Bit wearing the robes that Haru, and Bohman were wearing, and an avatar that has flames as hair appeared as they set themselves.
"You can choose who duels in what order, but for these matches Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz Monsters will not be limited to the Extra Monster Zones." XANA told them.
"Best out of six matches or until all of us had a turn?" Aqua asked.
"However you want to do this." XANA answered. "One at a time, a six on six match, whatever you decide."
"How should we do this?" Flame asked his friends.
"We save Ai for last." Lightning answered, "Earth, your first."
Earth nodded, "Got it."
At that one of the figure stepped forwards and created a Duel Disk. Earth step forward joining too.
"Be careful." Gardener told him.
"Don't worry, Earth is skilled." Lightning told her.
"DUEL!"

The Dragon charged.
"Kuriboh effect, damage is reduced to zero." the AI countered.
The attack was blocked as Aqua said worriedly, "Obsidian Dragon's ability to prevent effects only works for Spells, and Traps."
"It'll be fine Aqua." Flame mentioned. "Earth won't be stopped by one card."
"Yeah! As it's co-linked with Obsidian Dragon it's ability prevents Crystal Heart's destruction in battle!" Ai agreed.

"That'll be me." Windy said to him.
"Very well." XANA answered as another AI stepped forward.
"Windy stay careful." Lightning told him.

The second Falconeer appeared.
"And now as it's summoned next to it's Link, Rockbuster can destroy two more of your Spells or Traps while I can't use any myself this turn!" Windy added as Rockbuster aimed.

"Sorry bout that guys." Windy admitted to them.
"Don't worry about it, though that's why you need to be more careful." Lightning said crossing his arms.
Flame told them, "I'll go next."
Another of the AI stepped forward.
Ulrich362: Well... Earth won but Windy's deck was used against him.
bopdog111: That AI was lucky to have three copies in his starting hand.
Ulrich362: Something tells me it might not have been luck. So next up is Flame, hopefully he has better luck.

Ulrich362: Agreed, well see you in the next chapter for the remaining four Ignis to have their matches.
bopdog111: Be sure to review!
