Kadic

Stunned by the principal's appearance alongside Milly, Tamiya and Hiroki were in a bit of trouble.
"Mr. Ishiyama." Mr. Delmas calls Hiroki up forth. "Is it true that you know the whereabouts of one of the students here at Kadic Academy?" He asked.
"No. I mean, I do. But-" Hiroki was nervous. He didn't know what to say or to expect having been put in a situation such as this.
"He doesn't know anything, Milly." Tamiya says, trying to protect Hiroki.
"Tamiya. Don't lie to me." Milly pointing at her best friend.
"Milly, I-"
"- Don't you lie to me, Tamiya. I know you. You and I would never lie to each other. Why lie now?" She argued.
"Come along, children. We have to discuss this immediately in my office, now." Delmas calls out. He points towards the office and the three of them followed. Not too far, just outside the front of the dorm entrance, Laura saw them being escorted by Principal Delmas. Having stayed hidden, she walked the other way where she accidentally crashes onto Jim.
"Hey, what are you doing out here?" Jim asks her.
"Oh. Sorry Jim, I was on my way to the vending machines. I'm in a bit of a rush." She says trying to leave the scene.
"Missy, the way to the vending machines is that way. By the way, have you seen Mr. Delmas by any chance?" He asks her. Laura shakes her head no, lying to him.
"Very well then. Off you go. Remember, I don't wanna catch you out here later on at night. Understand?" He tells her. Laura nods her head as a yes. Then, Jim leaves. And, so does Laura.

Lab

Patrick and Sam arrive to catch up with William. The two rush to the computer to see if he was there. But no one was on the chair. Sam sees a countdown just hit zero within seconds.
"What's that mean?" She wondered, pointing at the screen.
"Best guess? He beat us to it." Patrick answered. Suddenly, his phone rings. He pulls out his phone to see who it is. It was Laura calling.
Patrick answered, "We just arrived to the Lab getting ready to transfer."
"You're gonna have to wait for the fun, you guys. Principal Delmas just took Hiroki and Tamiya to the office." She explains.
"The office?" Patrick looked at Sam with concern.
"And I need your help." Laura requested. Sam overheard the conversation.
"We would. But William ran away to Lyoko. We don't know why. But Laura. I feel like he's hiding something."
"Patrick what are you talking about?"
"I'll explain later. But we need you here."
"Yeah. But what about Hiroki and Tamiya? I need you here." She tells him.
Suddenly the door opens. Sam opened the elevator.
"I'll go take care of the kids. You take care of William. I'll bring the cavalry here as soon as I can. Go!" Sam tells him.
"Laura, you got that?" Patrick asked.
"Okay. I'm on my way. I'll tell you the procedure step by step in the meantime."

Principal's Office

The principal just hung up the phone. "All right. That should settle it. The authorities will be on their way for questioning. Hiroki, Tamiya, and Amelia, I expect you to tell the authorities what you know about Mr. Dunbar's whereabouts as soon as they arrive."
"What? But we don't know anything, sir. Milly, you got it all wrong." Hiroki tries telling them both. But Delmas looked convinced that William is out there somewhere. Meanwhile, Milly was giving in to the lies.
"Oh no. I heard everything. You mentioned caveman William." Milly tells him. Tamiya looks at Hiroki. Shocked, she couldn't come up with something to help him.
"Milly, you got it all mixed up. There's like hundreds and thousands of Williams out here. How do you even know that it's Dunbar we mentioned?" Hiroki continues to deny her with lies.
"Milly, you need to understand that this is a mistake." Says Tamiya to her best friend Milly.
"That's enough." Principal Delmas interrupts. Everyone stays quiet. Hiroki and Tamiya look at each other worried for the worst to come.

Lyoko
Ice Sector

Patrick arrives at the Ice Sector. He looks around in search for William until he sees a tower turn red.
"That doesn't look good." He said.
"Patrick. Are you there?" It was Laura's voice on the other side.
"Yeah. But I think we're going to have to wait, Laura."
"I know. A tower's just activated! You need to shut it down now, Patrick. Priority one." She tells him.
Patrick makes a run for it until suddenly everything began to tremble. Patrick gets a hold of something. He was shocked as everything began to rise. The ice floor rose up, breaking piece by piece. Until it was 20 feet above the air. Then, Patrick gets struck down. He got hit! He looks around until he hears it again, coming from above. Patrick dives and runs the other way to a big boulder for cover. As soon as he did, he looks up.
"Laura, I am being attacked by these monsters again. Except they have wings now! I'm gonna need that back up right about now." He says to Laura.
