"Daemon Rising"

(Zoom down from top on Mainframe to top of Principle Office. Fade in to War Room. Phong, Dot, Mouse, and... um... Hack and Slash are there)
Dot: How are we doing?
Mouse: Well, Sugah, Daemon's power seems to be growing. Phong?
Phong: What is it, my child?
Mouse: How much has Daemon infected?
Phong: Hmm... the Net is 56.87 percent infected. No, 56.88. Wait! 56.86! No, leveling at 56.89. But wait!
Dot: What? The number went down?
Phong: It appears so...
(Gavin Blair suddenly appears)
Gavin: Uh, at a point we have to get to the Twin City's destruction, so maybe we should insert that now.
Dot: Suits me.
Hack: I like it!
Slash: As do I.
(Gavin exits)
Dot: Viral power lowering? (very dramatic here) Oh, this reminds of (holding back tears) Dad's... *sniff* experiment... (swirly flashback effect here)
(Now we are in the past at some point. We are also in a crowded auditorium)
Mr. Matrix: Ahem. My experiment will PROVE that viral traces can easily be erased. Watch! (he pushes a button. Everything blows up. Screen goes red, then yellow, then black. The camera begins to pan out, as we see the black is merely Dot's pupil)
Dot: Dad, we'll continue your experiment... (sternly, to Phong) we've got to find those systems that can resist... DAEMON.
(Cut to Bob, who is flying)
Bob: I'd better go see how Dot is doing.
(Hex appears)
Hex: Hello, Bob.
Bob: H-Hex! What are you doing here?
Hex: I've come to help you, silly. I'm going to help you find some systems!
Bob: Systems?
Hex: I overheard Dot wanting to find some systems that resist Daemon.
Bob: There ARE some?
Hex: Of course! Come on, Bob. (Hex flys to P. O, dragging Bob)
(Back in Principle Office)
Dot: Where is Bob? We need for him to create the Portal!
Matrix: I'm here.
Enzo: I am too!
AndrAIa: Hello.
Phong: Um, yes. Bob! (he notices Bob and Hex enter) And... Hex. Well, Bob, we need for you to create a Portal to a system that resists Daemon's grasp.
Bob: I know. Hex told me everything. Show me the tear, I'll get you there.
Dot: Okay, Bob. Is everybody ready? (everyone nods agreement) All right then. Let's go stop Daemon... from rising.

"Cross Nodes"

Last week on Reboot:
Mr. Matrix: Ahem. My experiment will PROVE that viral traces can easily be erased. Watch! (he pushes a button. Everything blows up.)
AND
Phong: Hmm... the Net is 56.87 percent infected. No, 56.88. Wait! 56.86! No, leveling at 56.89. But wait!
(We're in some other system. The sky is a dark purple, but there is no Game cube anywhere. Buildings scrape the sky. A Portal appears, and our Heroes step out.)
AndrAIa: Are you sure this place hasn't resisted Daemon's grasp?
Matrix: Yeah, I know.
Enzo: ALPHANUMERIC! Look at this green stuff!
Dot: Bob, are you sure you portaled to the right place?
Bob: Yes!
Hex: I think it's very... pretty!
(Everyone stares at Hex as that "BUM BUM BUM BUM" music plays. You know. With the trumpets. Anyway, transition to another part of same system)
Dot: Okay, it looks like Daemon must have infected this place.
Mouse: I know, Sugah. Hey, look! Those two nodes are crossing!
Dot: It's a cross node!
Mouse: They're more of them, Sugah! (she pulls out her katana)
Dot: It's cross nodes! They're... forming something.... it's...
Mouse: Oh.... User, help us.
Dot and Mouse: DAEMON! AAAAAAAAAAA! (Black thing swoops down from top left corner to bottom left corner moving at a rate of exactly 6.54 pixels per frame. Anyway, now we go to Matrix and AndrAIa.)
Matrix: This place sure is ugly.
AndrAIa: Matrix!
Matrix: What? It is. Hey, look! (Matrix runs up to a black object) It's Dot's boot!
AndrAIa: And here's Mouse's sword!
Matrix: And there's a retreating ball of energy! (his golden eye turns deep red) It has DOT!
AndrAIa: Calm down, Sparky!
Matrix: NO! DOT!
(Now to Bob and Phong)
Bob: So, Phong.
Phong: Bob.
Bob: How are you?
Phong: Fine, fine.
Bob: Yep.
Phong: Hmm...
(Matrix runs up)
Matrix: Dot... is... gone! DOT!!!!!!!

Last week on Reboot:
Dot and Mouse: DAEMON! AAAAAAAAAAA!
AND
Matrix: Dot... is... gone! DOT!!!!!!!
(Matrix is still yelling "DOT!!!!!!!")
Matrix: -OTTTTTT!
Phong: Calm down, Matrix.
Matrix: But I love Dot.... I can't let her go...
Bob: What's love got to do with it, Matrix?
Matrix: Can't you SEE, Bob? Can't you SEE?
Bob: Last time I checked, I wasn't blind.
Matrix: (angrily) What does that mean?
Bob: Sorry. Just a little humor.
Matrix: (very angry) Well, STOP! I HATE HUMOR! I LOVE HATE! HATE IS ALL I LOVE!
(AndrAIa runs up)
AndrAIa: Sorry. He's a little random.
Matrix: RANDOM? I LOVE HER! AND I LOVE YOU!
Phong: Enzo, you said hate is all you love, but you love Dot, and AndrAIa. What is wrong?
Matrix: STOP IT! STOP IT! MY MIND! GAAAAAAAH! (he runs off)
Bob: Okay....
(Hex appears)
Hex: Bob? Why is Matrix running off screaming, "Froidlaven!"?
Bob: I think he loves Dot too much.
Hex: Well, he is her brother
Phong: You... have a point.
(Cut to Dot and Mouse. They are cheering)
Dot: Daemon!
Mouse: Daemon!
Dot: Go Daemon!
Mouse: D is for diabolical!
Dot: A is for attractive!
Mouse: E is for excellent!
Dot: M is for minion! (That's who I am!)
Mouse: O is for opulent!
Dot: N is for nice!
Mouse: What's it all spell, Sugah?
Dot and Mouse: DAEMON! WOOOO! (they clap)
(Back to Bob, Phong, AndrAIa, and Hex.)
Bob: All right. Matrix can't help us, so it's up to us to stop Daemon. Here's... (the others look expectantly at him) ...the plan.

"Sacrifice"

Last week on Reboot:
Matrix: STOP IT! STOP IT! MY MIND! GAAAAAAAH! (he runs off)
AND
Bob: All right. Matrix can't help us, so it's up to us to stop Daemon.
(Bob, Phong, AndrAIa, and Hex are in a huddle)
Bob: Do you have the plan?
Hex: Sure.
Bob: BREAK! (he claps)
Phong: Bob? What was that?
Bob: Um... I don't know.
Phong: Okay.
(Later...)
Bob: I've created a Portal to the Supercomputer.
AndrAIa: All right, Bob. (she has her trident)
Hex: I'm ready.
Phong: I am too.
Bob: Let's go! (They all jump into the Portal)
(They reappear in the Supercomputer. Dot and Mouse are still cheering)
Dot and Mouse: Daemon, Daemon, she's our girl, if she can't do it, we're gonna hurl! GO DAEMON!
Bob: Daemon's worse than I thought!
Phong: Look, Bob! There she is!
Bob: It's a class 13 virus!
AndrAIa: How will we ever defeat her?
Bob: Well, the YTV thing said I "looked into the past" to find an answer, so... OH! (blurry flashback appears, with Bob voiceovering)
Bob: I remember... Class 13 viruses. (A blurry Bob is sitting in a blurry desk. I think.)
Bob: My teacher said... they could only be defeated... (A blurry tall blue sprite is moving their mouth. I think.)
Bob: By coming in contact with a virus-turned-sprite.
(Gavin pops up)
Gavin: ...who is white. We need a White Hexadecimal.
Bob: Thanks, Gavin.
Gavin: Welcome! (he goes away)
Bob: Ahem. By coming in contact with a virus-turned-sprite that was white..
Hex: But... I love my redness!
Phong: I am sorry, Hex. It is a sacrifice you will have to make. Here is some white paint.
Hex: Okay... here goes... (she dumps white paint on herself, and her face is all evil now. She lunges for Daemon who is offscreen. Sounds of fistfighting sound, and Hex then steps back into the screen. Mouse and Dot have stopped cheering)
Dot: What happened?
Bob: Hex saved us all. Go Hex!
(Cheers erupt)
Mouse: Wait Sugah! I remember Daemon sayin' she made a copy of you... where could he be?
(Bob2 comes in)
Bob2: Right here, Mouse!
Dot: Two Bobs? This sounds like...
Everyone: A sequel! (They all smile. Fade to black)
