"Shh!!" Conor shushed her as he walked into Alicia's room and shut the door, not wanting to be overheard. "No. Zero-Space is going to be the least bit helpful to us."
He pulled out the note from last night and showed it to her:
Zero-space
recycling bin of internet
dangerous - XANA's last remnants are there. weakened but still strong
proper software protection needed for travel.
"XANA is not completely dead. Given enough time he can probably escape." He explained. "What's more, we need to protect ourselves in order to even get to him."

Alicia took the note from Conor and read it a couple of times before it all sunk in. Still even after reading the note, it was confusing. How was it possible for XANA to be existing in a place like that. She turned on her hair dryer as she thought about the situation they were in.
"That pain in the a** XANA," she said out loud after turning off her hair dryer. "What will it take to get rid of that guy?" She got up from her chair then handed Conor back his note. "Do the others know yet? Or have you just told me?"

Kearo grabbed the banana off of his tray and ate it. " What's wrong? It's become harder and harder to sleep. I mean sometimes it's alright during the night, but sometimes it comes back." He thought to himself. Finished the banana and threw the peel into the trashcan behind him. " I-- I should... should... get some... more rest." He said to himself tired as his head hit the table and he fell asleep.

((Conor knows Korn on a Stik's character Donny, but since he's not posting yet I can't do anything with them))
"I've only told you so far. I need to tell Donny." Conor said as he took the note back and put it in his pocket.
"I could be worrying about nothing. Maybe a big recycle bin will be enough to keep XANA out of our hair." He mused as he shifted his weight onto one leg. The statement was more to reassure himself than to comfort Alicia.
((nasanam, your character will probably be let in on the secret later. Or earlier, if you do something that will make Conor or Alicia tell you.))

Alicia grabbed her backpack and swung it over her shoulder. "We should get something to eat in the cafeteria, its getting late." She thought about what they should do about the current situation. Maybe Conor was right and that XANA could be held in their for a while. Still she couldn't seem to relax. "Maybe we should go to the factory later just in case." She said as she opened the door so they could leave.

"I've got a bad feeling about the factory. I don't know about you but I want to stay away from there for a while." Conor said, a bit uneasily as they walked down the stairs and towards the cafeteria.
As Conor walked into the cafeteria he noticed Kearo, head on the table, face covered by his arms. He raised a brow. Is that guy gorging himself or taking a nap? He grinned to himself as he grabbed a tray and got in line.

Kearo put his head up and pulled the peel off of his head. " This morning is not going to turn out too well." He said to himself. He grabbed a fork and tried to eat the thing that was on his tray. " Tastes like meat. Why does it not look like meat?" He said to himself

When he got out of line Conor held a tray of burnt breakfast sausage, rubbery mashed potatoes, mushy pancakes that were soaked in gravy instead of syrup, and some fruit. The only thing that looked even vaguely appetizing was the banana.
He took the banana off before dumping the rest of the tray in the garbage, ignoring the glares he was getting from the cafeteria workers. He peeled the banana and bit off the end. At this rate I'll either starve or die of bad food before the year is over, he thought, a wry expression on his face.

He finished what was on his tray and emptied it into the trash. He put the tray on top of the trashcan. He headed for the door and hit his shoulder against Conor's on his way there.

Immediately red flags went up in Conor's brain. A complete stranger had just ran into his shoulder, perhaps intentionally. He wasn't the type to take that kind of crap from people he didn't know.
He turned to Kearo and spoke with a stern expression. "Hey, watch it! You could have knocked me over."

He looked over his shoulder towards Conor. " Too, bad I didn't." He said to him as he went out the door. He headed for the school building. He held his head as he was still tired and thought to himself " Why and I acting like this? It seems to be more like how Sakio acts."

"Klutz..." Conor muttered after he finished his banana and threw away the peel.
He looked at his schedule to see the first class of the day. "Screw computer class - I know these crappy computers inside and out. I'm going back to the dorms." He muttered to himself before walking back to his dorm room and closing the door behind him.

This morning Donny woke not to the sound of a buzzing alarm but to a door slamming. He slowly rose from his sheets and glanced over at his bedside alarm. Had he woken up early? If only, there was only ten minutes till class! The rest of the morning was a blur as Donny's brain tried to cope with shifting straight from first to fourth. Donny skidded into computer class without his backpack and a bruised banana in hand. For a moment he simply stood in the middle of the room while the rest of the class stared at him and blinked. "Sit down Mr. Bell," Said Mr. Whatever-His-Name-Was. Donny was horrible with new names and still didn't know his computer teacher's. "Now if everyone would please pull out their reports on...." 'Of course this happens to ME!' Donny thought as he slammed his head on the key board in front of him. "Mr. Bell! That is expensive equipment! I'll see you in detention this evening!" 'Perfect' Donny thought and zoned out for the rest of class which seemed to ooze painfully by today.

Alicia grabbed a tray after Conor then went to get her breakfast. She sat down only to see Conor throw away most of his food. She sighed quietly as she saw the other faces. Geez and I thought I could get people mad easily.
Once Alicia finished eating, she threw her trash away and headed for her science class. After what was said earlier, she assumed it would be better to just go on as usual until something happen.

((Yay for Korn! biggrin ... I'm sorry, I sound terribly obnoxious, right? sweatdrop ))
Conor was in his room looking over Jeremy's video diary before Jim barged in. "Mr. Elstrode, where are you supposed to be right now, young man??" He asked, sounding as annoying as only Jim could.
"Computer class..." Conor scowled. "It's not like I'm missing out on anything."
However that answer didn't fly with Jim. Five minutes later Conor found himself in a seat in his computer class, in the row behind Donny. He also found a detention slip for skipping class in his pocket.
Great. This day is just turning out marvelous. He thought as he opened up command prompt on the computer in front of him and started hacking out code, making his computer do all sorts of weird things.
