Prologue
The ground cracked and fell from the light blue platform in sector five. The Scyphozoa hissed and waved its tentacles at the lyoko warriors. Several monsters stood fighting guarding XANA's perfect creature. Monsters of all shapes and sizes were falling to a slashes of a blade, a toss of fans, firings of arrows and balls of energy.
Jereamy's voice came from the sky, "Careful guys it seems that XANA is sending some more reinforcements in."
"That's exactly what we need right now," Odd said as he fired another arrow in the direction of a block. "More monsters to prevent us from killing XANA once and for all."
"Some Mantas coming in on your left," Jeremy stated as four swooped in.
"They're flying too high to hit," Yumi said after she caught her fan after a backflip to dodge incoming lasers.
"Hey Einstein if you can get me a vehicle I could get rid of them," Odd yelled as he fired a couple arrows at some hornets, "and I few more arrows too…I don't want to run low."
"Give me a few seconds and you'll have your board and arrows," Jeremy stated as he typed furiously at the keyboard pulling up the vehicles on one screen and activated the laser arrow giving program at the same time. As the vehicles materialized the style of the warriors changed from defensive to an open attack one.
Ulrich jumped on his bike and rode off into the mix of monsters hacking and slashing through their ranks, causing some friendly fire casualties. Yumi and Aelita taking advantage of the overwing to attack from the sky. Odd true to his word jumped on the board and pursued the mantas who had swooped in to confront the Lyoko warriors.
The Scyphozoa shuddered and moved back across the crumbling land mass. As he moved back more monsters appeared ready to fight the Lyoko warriors. As the shots got more numerous and both the overwing and bike were devirtualized it became clear to Jeremy that there was only one way to win. He pulled up a file of an incomplete virus on his lap top and added a few finishing touches before sending it to the supercomputer in an encrypted program.
"Guys we have one shot at this, I have a virus designed to fully destroy XANA but it's risky. If you manage to kill the Scyphozoa with one hit to the eye of XANA then we win hit anywhere else XANA will be able to counter act it," Jeremy told them has he brought up more windows on the super computer.
"Then how do we make sure it gets there Einstein we're surrounded by monsters," Ulrich responded while deflecting a laser.
"I've still got the board," Odd called out as he attacked some of the monsters, "I could zoom real close and try to hit him like I did with the Marabounta."
"That's actually a good idea except that the monsters would never let you get close enough," Jeremy stated.
"We could create a diversion focus the monsters down here on us," Aelita stated, "If we made a break for the Scyphozoa and used all of our abilities together they'd have to focus on us."
"That just might work…Odd I'm going to attach the virus to the next laser arrow give me a few seconds before going in with the plan and don't attack until you can't miss the eye."
"Rodger that Einstein," Odd replied as he turned the board to dodge some wayward lasers sent his way.
Jeremy started to attach the virus to the arrow as the others started to push forward through the army of monsters. To make it easier Ulrich used triplicate to add numbers to the Lyoko warriors on the ground.
"Odd you're clear to attack," Jeremy said as the conformation of the virus being attached showed up on the computer screen.
Odd angled the board and started moving toward the Scyphozoa. As he did the other warriors made a break for the it as well. Ulrich and his clones hacking off crab legs went the fastest through the ranks, Yumi stayed behind Ulrich and focused on hitting hornets that were trying to isolate the warriors with their poison. Aelita activated her wings and went back and forth with her energy blasts helping Ulrich and Yumi. Odd stayed above her and aimed a steep dive to get there faster.
As he got closer he heard a gasp as Yumi was devirtualized followed by a shout from Jeremy as the same happened to Aelita. Odd got maybe thirty feet from the Scyphozoa before seeing Ulrich and his clones zip in front of him causing more distractions for the monsters.
Twenty feet…ten feet…at five feet Odd felt the board disappear out from underneath him. His cat like reflexes pushed him off just in time to gain extra momentum. He didn't waste time thinking he held up his arm and fired the laser arrow at the Scyphozoa.
There was a shriek and a blast and Jeremy saying something about 'emergency devirtualization'. Then nothing.
