This isthe in between for castaway567's TIme We Need. I have no ownership of the characters. Just what happens, I limited, and the bike. Not to mention the diner. I hope you like, I've been working on the plans since a few days before Xmas and am really proud of this story. Cast off castaway. :p :)
Ulrich and Yumi walked to Ulrich Yamaha his dad gave him for his 16th birthday. Even though they could walk to the diner they were going to, they had plans for afterwards as well. Ulrich reved the bike up while Yumi slowly got on. This was the first time she had ever been on a motorcycle, and the first time she had seen Ulrich ride the bike. Ulrich must have felt her uneasiness because he said, "It's all right. I won't let anything happen. Just hold on." When Yumi heared this, she calmed down and held on around Ulrich's waist. He went slow for the first few minutes so Yumi could get used to the bike, then he went to the diner fifteen minutes away.
Odd and Kasey were already at the diner. They had left thirty minutes before Ulrich and Yumi, and had just arrived at the diner. They sat down and started to talk. They were talking about what had been said in history class earlier that day when Ulrich and Yumi, Yumi looking a little winded, sat down at the table.
"So, as I was saying, what if that kid is right? What if history does repeat ifself?"
"But, history doesn't repeat itaself," Kasey replied, "It just seems to. True, the pharohs enslaved the Jews, true that during the Crucades the Christians killed the Jews, and it's true that Hitler totured and killed millions of Jews, but that does not mean history repeats itself. Alls that means is that people make the same mistake and make it feel as if history repeats itself."
Ulrich and Yumi sat down, Ulrich by Odd and Yumi by Kasey. Ulrich decided it was his turn to speak, "And even if history does repeat itself, its been two years and XANA hasn't attack."
"He's right," Yumi said, "It has. It has also been three years to the day since we found the factory. Speaking of that, where's Jeremie and Aelita?"
"I think Einstien took her out to the forest." Ulrich said.
"Man, we've got to get him to take her out on a real date." Kasey said.
"That is his version of a real date." Odd added. They all laughed as the waitress came up to get their order.
Jeremie took Aelita by the hand and wolked her to the stream. Then they sat against a tree. Aileta sat next to him with her head laying on his shoulder. They had been out in the woods for an hour talking about the past year.
"What I can't figure out is why XANA hasn't attacked. Yes, we left him weak, but he's come back before. It doesn't make since." Jeremie said.
"What, you liked the attacks?"
"No, but I would rather fight him and know what he's up to then not have an attack and don't know anything. It's amazing how peaceful my life was before XANA
"What was it like?"
"What, my life or the world?"
"You're life."
"Pretty dull. No one would talk to me, I was picked on, and my stuff was stolen all the time."
"Seems harsh."
"Not really. I mean, sure, we've had hard times but there are kids who have it worse." They stopped the conversation there. They just sat for another thirty minutes to enjoy the company. They left for the dorms after awhile and went to his dorm.
Ulrich and Yumi left their money on the table before they left. Outside, Ulrich reved the bike again to get it started. Yumi got on faster than she did the first time. She hung on to his waist and then they were off. They had no regrets about leaving Odd and Kasey. They needed time together. You could still see the wounds Odd recieved from XANA. He also still winced when he turned. Ulrich was heading for the river. It was their favorite place to be alone. They reached it ten minutes later. They sat at a bench with their arms around each other. They sat there saying nothing. Then Ulrich broke the silence, "Yumi, I need you to promise me something. I need you to promise that whatever happens to me that you'll find some one who makes you happy. I need you to promise me."
"What... what do you mean?"
"I mean, if something happens to me or between us, you'll find some one who'll make you happy. I would hate myself if I made you feel unhappy and never found anyone else."
"I..."
"Promise me."
"I... okay." Yumi finally said. She didn't know what he meant but if he wanted her to promise that is what she'd promise. They didn't say anytthing after that. They just sat there together. A few minutes later they left. Ulrich dropped Yumi off at her place a few minutes later. Thankfully, her parents were asleep. Ulrich walked her up to the door and said good night. She said good night back to him and then kissed him on the lips. She let go turned around then blushed as she opened the door. As soon as the door closed, Ulrich walked to his bike and drove off to the school.
Jeremie and Aelita were both laying on his bed. Jeremie was stroking Aelita's hair when he thought of how relatively recient they met each other. Sure, Odd and Kasey met about a year after he and Aelita, but Ulrich and Yumi have known each other longer than he knew Aelita. It was also weird to know that in a few years they all would be graduating. The last thing he noticed before he went to sleep was the time. It read, 11:12.
Please review. It'll help me and in turn might help castaway567.
