Plot: Ulrich figured since William was with XANA his problems were over, he was wrong. Now there's Hunter, the new guy from the U.S. No one knows anything about him, at first he's friends with the Lyoko gang but seems like he's got something to hide rated T. I don't own Code Lyoko... but I do own Hunter my new OC. To set the time, this is after Lyoko is recreated and William becomes Xana's general.
Ulrich chased Odd from the shower leading to the hallway of their room. "Come on Odd! Give it back!" he demanded. Odd would only shake his head as he continued to run. Not noticing the person he was about to hit in the process. Both of them fell on their butts, rubbing their foreheads that collided.
"Dude, I'm all for the prank that you may be pulling on your friend, but at least watch it okay?" The mysterious kid pleaded. Odd nodded and apologized, but the kid continued to walk the way they came. Seeing Odd distracted, Ulrich tackled him back to the ground. Struggling beneath his best friend and roommate, Odd gave up.
"Can I have my phone back now?" Ulrich asked angrily. Still mystified by the stranger he ran into, Odd handed it back.
"Come on." He argued. "It wasn't that bad, what I was going to do." The two continued to argue as they walked back into their room.
"Odd, taking my cell phone and attempting to send a prank message to Yumi is not funny." Odd only ignored his friend as they both changed clothes. He figured it would be very funny, it would be very funny or he would be doing him a favor. Instead of trying again, Odd just fed Kiwi and followed Ulrich down to the lunch room.
Jeremie was checking on Lyoko on his laptop while eating a banana. XANA had been very quiet since he took William, and getting him back before something else big happened was the higher priority. "Jeremie, please tell me you aren't scanning Lyoko again?" his pink haired friend begged.
"Sorry, Aelita, I was just worrying about William. We can't use the copy forever." He pointed out. Soon, the couple was joined by Odd and Ulrich and a late Yumi. Odd, Aelita, Yumi and Jeremie were making conversation about Lyoko and what they could try to use to get William back. Ulrich finished his breakfast quicker and decided to take a walk. Yumi turned around just in time to see him leave.
"Odd, is something wrong with Ulrich?"
"No, I think he's just still mad about what I tried to do this morning."
Yumi gave him a questionable look. "Okay Odd, what did you do to him?"
"Nothing nothing... but I may have attempted to take his phone and send a prank message."
"Who were you trying to send this message to exactly?" Odd panicked. He couldn't say it was to her, because not only would Yumi kill him but Ulrich as well. Beads of sweat poured down his eyes as he tried to think.
"Um... I wanted to send it to... his dad. You know to say hi, but he doesn't like to talk to his dad a lot. That's all." Yumi bought it and went back to her conversation with the rest of the gang.
(Outside)
Ulrich continued to walk past the students at Kadic, not paying them any mind. He even passed William's clone and then began to run. Panting as he stopped, he reached his destination which was his favorite tree on campus. Sitting down, he basked himself in its shade and continued to think. 'William's gone, at least now there's no one to bug Yumi. Maybe I should've let Odd send that message, it could've done me some good.' He thought optimistically.
His reign of negative thoughts then rained into his subconscious. 'Yeah, but it also could've become a total disaster. Our friendship could've ended and it would be awkward for the both of us.' His rain on his own parade continued for another few minutes. From nowhere, a voice gave Ulrich some advice. "You know, being a depressing person isn't going to help anybody, including you."
Ulrich freaked out once he heard the voice, flipping over he backed away from the voice. "Who was that?" Ulrich asked nervously. Behind the tree, stood a tall boy chuckling.
"Sorry, couldn't help it. That was just funny. HAHAHAHA!" he roared. Ulrich examined the kid, he reminded him of William with the height. He stood proudly at 6 feet, with brown hair that mainly stood up since it didn't look like it could go anywhere else. A few moles, one on each cheek. He seemed to keep a straight face. "I am sorry though, I didn't mean to scare the crap out of you." He extended a hand, which Ulrich excepted. The boy was wearing a long sleeve black thermal shirt with a rib tank underneath and a pair of dark shaded blue jeans.
"It's alright, but I would at least like to know your name." He demanded.
"Sorry, but I'm not gonna give you that." Ulrich looked at him confused, what was so wrong with giving him his name it couldn't be that big of a deal. Before Ulrich could ask why, he heard the bell ring in the distance. Both of them were running to the buildings, Ulrich heard him yell something back to him. "You'll learn it soon enough, man." Ulrich wasn't sure what that meant, and as he ran to outrun the bell he didn't care.
The bell came quickly enough as Ulrich just barely made it into his classroom with Ms. Hertz. She obviously wasn't happy. "Well Mr. Stern, I'm so happy that you could join us today."
Ulrich bowed to her and hoped that she wouldn't give him detention. "Sorry Ma'am, it won't happen again." She was planning on giving him a lecture or a punishment, but technically he wasn't late.
"Make sure it doesn't, now take your seat." she ordered, which he complied with. Before the physics teacher could make another word, a knock came upon the classroom door. "Excuse me! But there's a class going on here." She scolded.
Ulrich ignored it, assuming it was just a message for a student or something like that. "I'm sorry Ma'am, I'm new here this is my first day." He said as he handed the teacher his schedule. She let it slide led him to the front of the room. She yelled to the students to gain their attention, which she did successfully.
"Class, we have a new student. I'll let him introduce himself." She sat back in her chair and waited for the boy to give himself a formal introduction.
"Hey, I'm Hunter. Hunter Adams, I'm from the U.S. and I am 14 years old." Ulrich looked at the boy, and just stared. It was the same kid who scared him to death in the forest this morning. 'OH, so that's what he meant when he said "I'll learn it soon enough."'
The girls looked at him with dreamy eyes, but Hunter paid them no mind. "Well then Mr. Adams, why don't you take a seat next to Mr. Della Robbia in the back please?" Odd announced his presence in the back of the room standing and glorifying himself.
"THANK YOU! THANK YOU! YOU'RE TOO KIND!" he screamed to the class. Everybody just laughed, as did Hunter when he sat down next to him.
"Della Robbia, control yourself or you'll get another detention." she threatened. To which Odd sat back down and slumped into his chair.
"Sorry about that dude, I didn't mean to steal your spotlight. Name's Odd." He extended his hand. Hunter shook it, but eyed him weirdly as he saw the splotch of purple in his blonde hair.
"Let me guess, your name's really Odd and that purple hair is natural?" Now it was Odd's turn to look at him weirdly. He had pieced him together so fast, usually people would ask what his name really was but he got it. "Why else would you say that? Anyway, don't worry about the spotlight thing, not a big fan of it. At least not when I don't control it."
The rest of the class, Odd and Hunter talked getting the occasional yell from Ms. Hertz but they didn't care. Ulrich however was curious, the new kid automatically talked to his best friend when most ignore him. The bell rang and the room piled out, Hunter followed Odd but was stopped by a shoulder grab. Turning around, Hunter saw a girl that kind of freaked him out by appearance, Sissi.
"So your the new guy, huh?" She asked in her nasally voice. Hunter only nodded his head slowly. "Well, I'm Sissi..." Before she could say another word, Hunter shrugged off her hand from his shoulder and walked into the crowd.
"And I'm not interested." He replied back. He chuckled as he put his hands in his pockets.
So how does everybody like Hunter? HUH HUH HUH? Please R&R, I've got a really good layout to use for this guy. Like I said please R&R, next chapter: Hunter meets the rest of the gang do they approve of him or not?
