Goal: 160-220 words.
Fact Check: The provided synopsis for Season 2 is very short: "The Lyoko Warriors have their work cut out for them as XANA gains power, with an ability to possess humans and create even more mayhem on Earth."
Problem: The provided text does not contain enough information to write a 160-220 word summary of the narrative arc of Season 2 without inventing details.
Constraint Check: "You write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES. You never invent or guess... If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
