Five Minutes

Chapter One - X.A.N.A's Recruiting

"JEREMY! DE-VIRTUALIZE ME NOW!"

The strained cries coming from Ulrich Stern filled the virtual world of Lyoko. He was pinned against a stone wall, being lifted up by his hands, as he was stretched across the wall. It was no virtual monster or specter doing the levitation…it was William. Being controlled by X.A.N.A, William was given the orders to recruit another Lyoko warrior for X.A.N.A's use. Although the normal process of possession was difficult because of the high rank Ulrich has and the resistance he had built toward X.A.N.A's possession. William then had to find another method of possessing Ulrich…which weren't too pleasant…some may even say it involved excruciating pain.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH UUGGHHHHHHH" Ulrich again cried out.

"Haha don't worry it'll all be over soon and you'll be just like me." William teased while grinning.

"Ulrich for some reason I can't de-virtualize you…the others are on the way. Just hang on. Odd, Yumi, Aelita, I can't seem to understand what's going on with Ulrich, but I know it has to be bad so go to him NOW and help!"" Jeremy demanded the others.

Yumi and Odd were in the process of eliminating some krabs while Aelita was flying around trying to look for Ulrich.

"Do you see him Aelita?!" Yelled a concerned Yumi.

"No, but I see a bright lightning looking light. Over there!" Aelita pointed to a stone wall not too far from where they were.

"Okay last krab gone! Let's go find Ulrich." Odd said as he snapped his fingers.

"Here Odd…one hover board. Girls I can't virtualize the other vehicles at the moment so Aelita'll have to fly Yumi over." Explained Jeremy.

"Alright here we come Ulrich." Yumi said.

"Wait for us buddy." Odd added.

As the other started nearing to the stone wall, they could here the cries of Ulrich that made their hearts shudder.

"ULRICH!" Yelled Odd.

"Where are you?!" Yelled Yumi and Aelita.

"H….e…re" Ulrich forced out.

"Do you see him? What's going on? Is he okay?" Jeremy frantically questioned the others.

"Calm down Einstein we don't see him….wait I found William…." Said Odd.

The three warriors had reached William though they couldn't see Ulrich. William was standing in front of the stone wall with his arm up and the X.A.N.A symbol on his forehead was glowing a bright red. Almost like his power was growing.

"Where's Ulrich William?" Yumi calmly, with concern in her eyes, asked.

"Hmph. You can't save him…so why does it matter where he is?" William said.

"You bastard! WHERE THE HELL IS ULRICH?! TELL ME BEFORE I BEAT YOU!" Odd threatened.

William's eyes flicked up towards the top of the wall.

The three friends followed his gaze to the top of the stone wall. Ulrich was at the top, being held up by his hands. There was a smokey glow around him that seemed too much like poison.

"Ulrich? Are you okay?" Yumi yelled.

"What did you do to him?" Aelita asked X.A.N.A more than William.

"I'm not finished. X.A.N.A needs another warrior to do his bidding." William explained with a smirk.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM TO GET HIM LIKE THIS?! I'm thinking THAT'S what Aelita meant by her question." Odd shouted as close as he could get to William's face.

William only smiled as his whole body began to glow and soon it was surrounded by smoke. The smoke then travelled up his arm and up to where Ulrich was. Screams and agonizing cries were heard again throughout Lyoko.

The three Lyoko warriors were about to attack until William held up his other hand to them and stopped the attack on Ulrich. They could hear a sigh of relief come from Ulrich as he lost consciousness. Odd, Yumi, and Aelita looked at each other with a confused yet angry gleam in their eyes until they again set their sights on William.

"I only answered your question Odd." William winked at Odd.

(A/N) I just finished re-watching the entire Code Lyoko series about a month ago. I love the show and Ulrich/Odd so I decided I wanted to try to write a fanfic with them.
