Lyokemon Pilot Part I

Claimer: I don't own any of the characters nor do I own most of the storyline. I just added the idea of Pokemon!

Diary of Jeremy Belpois. Kadic academy; eight grade student; October 9th.

A few weeks ago, I was hunting for parts to build my miniature robots. I couldn't find anything here I could use, so I decided to rummage for scrap in the abandoned factory, not far from the academy. My Beldum sensed that there were probably some cool mechanic stuff left inside there that would be useful. And I wasn't disappointed. It was unbelievable. I stumbled into this sort of complex with scanners and a totally intense mainframe. For the moment, I haven't told anyone about this supercomputer. The secret was between me and my Beldum. That night, even though I was scared stiff, I decided to start up the computer.

Jeremy took a step towards the large, metallic motherboard. "Ready, Beldum?"

"Beldum!" it said anxiously. Jeremy flipped switch and a bright light emitted from the computer. It knocked back Jeremy and his Beldum. Jeremy ran over the Beldum and made sure it was okay "That magnetic pulse must have hurt badly."

"Bel..." it responded, trying to recover from the blast.

"Come on, let's go." He brushed off some dust from his blue turtleneck. After they went up elevator, Jeremy sat in a seat as Beldum floated and watched. "Now, let's see what you've got under the hood, my friend. As the computer booted up, Jeremy exclaimed, "Wow, what's all this? A video game?" A mysterious girl appeared on one of the monitors and woke up.

"Huh? Who are you?" she said. "Where am I?"

Back at Kadic Junior High, various students were greeting one another after a long weekend. A strange boy wearing a tad too much purple walked up to a rather sad-looking boy sitting down a one of the desks.

"Uh, are you Ulrich Stern?" he asked.

Ulrich looked up and asked nonchalantly, "Well, it depends. Who wants to know?"

"Odd Della Robbia! His new roommate."

"What?!"

"I'm new at the academy, and the principal told me to move in with you. Relax. I'm totally cool. You'll see; you won't even know I'm there."

"I sure hope so," said Ulrich with a surprised, yet disgusted look. "Look, we don't exactly go way back, so just for now let's take things nice and slow, okay?"

"Okay, nice and slow." While they talked, a brunette girl strutted up to Ulrich. "Hi, there, Ulrich, sweetheart. I have something very important to tell you."

"Important like, uh, 'I lost my mascara' or 'My Jigglypuff needs diaper training?'" said Ulrich, uninterested.

"No, nothing as serious as that. It's about you and me, Ulrich. If you want to know more, come by my room tomorrow at eight. I'm counting on you." She walked away, eyeing Ulrich every so often.

"Ulrich? Sweetheart?" asked Odd in wonder. "Who's the good-looking babe?"

"Sissi. She's the principal's daughter. Guys flip over her, but she's only flipped over me."

"That's pretty cool."

"Cool? She's totally brain dead."

"In that case, she's pretty lame."

Jeremy had just flipped over discovering this life form inside this computer.

"Artificial intelligence, can you hear me?" he said, putting on a headset.

"Yes, but would you mind calling me something else, please?"

"Okay. How do you like the name…May?"

"May? I like that, but I'd really like for you to tell me what I'm doing here."

"I'm not really sure. You're part of a virtual environment called 'Lyoko,' and you've got to try to get out of there. Try looking for some kind of door."

May looked around at the place she was sitting at. The luminescent floor was almost blinding in contrast to the dark blue walls. There was a sort of white pattern on the platform. She assumed she was in some sort of a bottomless tower with moving blue squares along its walls. May was able to walk on her third try because she hadn't done this in a long time. (Or at last she thought she hadn't). Besides, her pink, sock-like shoes were uncomfortable. She looked around at the confined space. "Jeremy, I can't find anything." May walked over to the wall and touched it. Instantly, she emerged from the tower. "Jeremy, you have to see this."

"I'd love to. Do you think that you could give me a visual?"

"I'll try."

A window popped up on the central monitor revealing a live feed of a series of grassy bridges around some floating, digital trees. "Wow, this is incredible! Maya, there isn't just a forest out there. There is an entire world! A map has just popped up revealing four sectors. Each one is different.

Out of nowhere, two strange creatures appeared in front of May. They looked and acted like robots shaped like Nincada, except they were sort of real. "Uhh, Jeremy? I'm not alone out here. There are some Pokemon."

"Wow. That means that there is an entire ecosystem with living creatures inside this virtual universe."

Suddenly, bursts of lasers were shot out of the robots towards May. "Jeremy, they're attacking me!" screamed Aelita as she tried to run away.

Beldum shrieked as it watched the horrifying event. "Those aren't Pokemon, realized Jeremy, "those are machines! Hurry, get to the tower!" He let out a sigh of relief a she made it in time.

At Kadic a couple of hours later, Odd and Ulrich talking when Jeremy was trying to buy something from the vending machine. It sparked up, leaving Jeremy injured on the ground.

"Belpois!" screamed Ulrich as he ran over to pick him up. "I'll take him to the infirmary. Go tell a teacher, Odd."

"Don't worry, Jeremy," calmly said the nurse in the infirmary. "Just some minor electrical shocks."

"Wow, that was a close call. Thanks a lot, Stern." Jeremy was lying on a small cot. He turned his head.

"Don't mention it. After my martial arts class tonight, I'll check up on you."

In the gym, Jim and his Hariyama were starting a class with only one student so far, Ulrich.

"Nice of all of you for showing up today. I'm about to teach you techniques that can save your life."

"Have you ever been saved using a jutsu, Jim?" asked Ulrich in disbelief.

"Why, yes. One time, me and my Hairy Arma..."

A tall girl in grey walked in and interrupted, "I'm Japanese, sir. It's pronounced 'Hariyama.'"

"Right..." said the gym teacher, embarrassed. His Hariyama looked embarrassed as well. "Yama..."

"Okay, let's get into groups of two."

Ulrich started to spar with the girl. "Hmm. Pretty good for a beginner." She briskly kicked him on the side of the head and pinned him down. They started to blush.

"Not bad," said Jim as Hariyama started to mimic Jim's motions. "You could both use a lot more work. Now go back to your dormitories and get some beauty sleep."

"Hariyama!"

Ulrich walked into his room and found his entire room a mess.

"Huh?! What is with this mess?" Looking around for an answer, he viewed a Snubbull inside of his blanket. "Where did that mutt come from?!"

"Uhh, that's Kiwi, my Snubbull," said Odd, sitting on his bed.

"Agghh! Look at this! My CD's, my laundry; he's trashed everything! Haven't you ever heard of a Pokeball?"

"Uhh, he's not used to being cooped up, because...uhh...he doesn't like going into his Pokeball."

"And you know that you're not allowed to release your Pokemon indoors?"

"Uhh, yeah."

"Then I think that the principal is going to be interested in hearing about this." After Ulrich left his room, he heard a scream coming from another room. He opened the door to find Jeremy's robots attacking him. Ulrich tried to shake them off, but they attack him, too. The robots finally settled down. "Whoa, what happened?" said Ulrich in shock.

"I had nothing to do with this. They just attacked me all of a sudden." explained Jeremy.

"You sure? I think something's wrong with you Jeremy."

"Yeah right." Jeremy nervously rolled his eyes.

"Come on, I won't tell. I'm not leaving this room until you tell me what's up."

"Umm...okay. This is just too strange. First, tell me if you can keep a secret."

Ulrich followed Jeremy to the abandoned factory on the river near their school. Ulrich released his Seedot just in case a washing machine tried attacking him. "So this is the mega computer you started up?"

"Uh huh, it's ultra powerful. I found out that it runs a virtual universe called Lyoko."

"Yeah, right. This is a bunch of Munchlax."

"Oh yeah? Check this out." He entered a couple of code on the keyboard and a window containging May popped up.

"Hello, Jeremy," she greeted. Seedot looked curious.

"Who's the girl with the pink hair?" asked Ulrich.

"I'm May, an artificial intelligence in charge of this universe."

"Don't tell me. You programmed her, right, Jeremy?"

"No," said May. "I woke up once Jeremy restarted the supercomputer. I don't know who I am. My memory has been erased."

"I still don't believe you guys."

"I'm serious," said Jeremy, defending himself. "When Maya was on Lyoko, a couple of virtual creatures attacked her that had the same logo as my robots that attacked me."

"Know what? If this thing is so dangerous, why don't you just shut it down and call the police?"

"Okay, but I have to get Maya out first. I have to virtualize her onto Earth."

"What makes you think you can?"

"You'll see, Stern. He took Ulrich down the elevator to a room with complicated machinery and wires all over the place.

"What's all this?"

"Scanners," said Jeremy. "I think this is the way I can bring May back to Earth. I haven't figured out how to do that, but I think I can do the opposite."

"You mean you can send humans to the inside of a computer."

"That's right," said Jeremy as Ulrich's Seedot ran around the scanner room.

"Jeremy, these things don't exist yet. There's no way."

Jeremy let out a sigh. "If there only was a way that I could convince you that it works." Jeremy scratched his head. "I got an idea! We just need some sort of guinea pig."

"A guinea pig, huh?" The next thing you know, Kiwi is sitting in one of the tower-like scanners. "Nice Snubbull. Now, don't move." Ulrich climbed up to the scanner room by ladder. "Everything's cool, Jeremy. The mutt is in the scanner."

"Okay, let's see how it goes. Beldum didn't notice the other two beings present in the room.

Odd and Sissi had sneaked into the scanner room. "Whoa," exclaimed Odd. "This place looks ancient."

"Alright," said Jeremy. "I'm starting up the procedure."

Odd spied Kiwi in the scanner. "Kiwi! Are you okay, boy? Kiwi licked Odd as he stepped into the scanner. The door closes. "Hey!"

"Oh no!" yelled Sissi. "You're going to be mummified!"

"Transfer guinea pig. Scanner guinea pig. He looked up at screen and saw the image of Kiwi" Good. It's working. Another image appeared next to it. "Huh? Wait, what is that?"

"Huh?" Ulrich looked at it more closely. "That's Odd Della Robbia!"

Frantically, Jeremy said, "I...don't know how to stop the procedure!" As Sissi yelled for help, Odd and Kiwi materialized into the digital forest. "Ouch!" He got up. He and his Kiwi felt as if they just fell into nowhere. Odd was wearing a sort of cat costume, complete with claws and a real tail. To make matters worse, it was purple.

"Uhh, Odd Della Robbia?"

"Huh, who's calling me?"

"It's me, Jeremy Belpois."

"Is this a joke or something?"

"Uhh, no. It's okay, Stern, Odd and his Snubbull are safely on Lyoko."

"Are we in a video game?"

"Actually, I don't really know. It's a virtual world; that much I'm sure of."

"Cool." He looked around some more and got hit by a laser. "Uhh, Jeremy? There are these giant bugs trying to attack me. Is that normal?"

"Err, the bottom line is that you've got to get out of there. Ulrich, Della Robbia is in danger. He needs help. I don't know what to do!"

"Do you know if you can send Sissi and me to Lyoko?"

Sissi looked up. "Ulrich! There you are! What?! Send us where, Ulrich?"

"To a weird world where weird Pokemon wanna massacre you. If you wanted to go out with me, now's your chance."

"Uhh, that's okay. I don't prefer virtual worlds, just real ones."

Ulrich stepped into the second scanner. "Then, see ya. Come on, Seedot." Seedot stepped into scanner with him. "Jeremy, I'm ready to go."

"Okay, I'm starting the procedure. Transfer Ulrich. Scanner Seedot. Virtualization. Odd, hang in there. Ulrich Stern is on his way to give you a hand."

"Great, Kiwi and I were starting to get bored here."

Ulrich fell right next to Odd. He looked around at the forest and at himself. He had on a yellow samurai outfit, complete with a headband and a sword. He took it out. "Wow. This sword rocks."

Odd got jealous as his roommate started to brandish his sword. "Hey, that's not fair! How come he gets to be a samurai? That's so much cooler."

"I think the supercomputer taps into your own desires and projects them onto your virtual image."

"I don't dream about giant purple cats. I'd rather have a weapon like Ulrich, not these useless claws." An arrow shot out from one of them, barely missing Ulrich.

"Hey, watch out!" said the discouraged samurai.

"Hmm, these arrows are pretty cool. I take back what I said."

Sissi emerged from the elevator and was amazed. "Huh? Wow!"

"Try to hook up with May in her tower," instructed Jeremy. "I'll try to give you the coordinates." Suddenly, wires bursted from the walls and started to attack Jeremy and Sissi.

"Sweet," said Odd, smiling. "There are chicks on Lyoko too?"

"Don't be so modest, Odd. I think Jeremy sorta likes her. Right Jeremy? Jeremy??"

"Beldum!" commanded Jeremy. "Use Take Down!"

"Bel DUM!" It quickly flew towards the wires, but a magnetic field was created and Beldum was repelled backwards.

Afraid, Sissi sent out her Jigglypuff. "Jigglypuff! Use Pound!" Jigglypuff flew up towards the wires, but they knocked Jigglypuff into the wall as well."

"Hmm. No answer," said Odd to Ulrich. "Oh, look. There's a tower right over there." He pointed and Ulrich and Seedot looked. Odd picked up Kiwi and ran to the tower followed by Ulrich and Seedot. "Is there a door or something?" Odd leaned against the side of the tower but fell in. Kiwi bit onto Odd's tail as Odd hubg onto the side of the platform. "Ouch!"

"Snubb!" said Kiwi. Ulrich and Seedot fell on top of Odd and all four fell down the gaping column. They emerged out of a tower in another area, where they would later call the Ice Sector. "Okay, where did the forest go?" asked Odd.

"Snubb?"

"How should I know?" asked Ulrich.

"Seedot," chirped his Pokemon.

"Hmm." wondered Ulrich. "See that tower over there? It's weird how it's not the same color."

"Hmm. Those Pokemon are kind of weird too. He pointed at three cubic monsters that were about to attack.

"Uhh, I don't think those are Pokemon." The four of them tried to ruin away,

Jeremy ran over to his Beldum. "Beldum!" The wires continued to attack Jeremy, Sissi, and their Pokemon.

As the giant monsters surrounded him Ulrich acted fast. "Seedot, use Growth!"

Seedot used Growth, and a red light emerged from the ground from where Ulrich and his Pokemon are standing for a second. Ulrich blocked a laser and jumped on top of one. Seedot tried to use Pound on another Block while U barely scraped the monster's back.

"Kiwi!" instructed Odd. "Use Tail Whip."

"Snubbull!" It said as it wagged its tail. A blue light shone down on one of the blocks for a second.

Odd shot one of his arrows at it, but nothing happened/ "Hey, so how do we make them faint?"

"I wish I knew."

"You don't suppose you know how many Life Points we have left, huh?" As he said it, Odd got devirtualized by a laser. In doing so, Kiwi was devirtualized."

"No" yelled Ulrich. He jumped onto a block and impcted its eye. The block exploded. "Yes." Seedot then got devirtualized. "No!" Ulrich soon followed and emerged from a scanner. "Well, at least we're alive, right Seedot?"

"Alive?" said Odd. "I think I'm about to throw up."

"Snubb." said his Snubbull. Sissi screamed for help while Jeremy and Beldum were captivated by the wires.

"Uh oh," said Odd. "Hold on Jeremy! Kiwi! Use Bite!" The Fairy Pokemon bit the wires but got electrocuted. One of the wires tries to attack Odd, but Ulrich took a piece of metal and slashed the wire in half. The electrical mess started to cease, and Sissi walked over to them, still a bit scared.

Another window popped up. "Hi. Is everything okay?"

"Well, May," said Jeremy, "we're a little shaken up, but it couldn't have gotten any worse."

A/N: I edited this chpater because I didn't want everyone to think I was some sort of maniacal movie director. FYI, all of my other chapters are in Story Format. Took me so long 'cause I had to add more sentences, delete all of the single letters, and change everything to past-tense.

Finished 4-25-07
