It was another fall day for us Lyoko Warriors at Kadic. We had just finished summer vacation and most of us were here, waiting for the others to show up. So far, William, Aelita and I, Yumi Ishiyama, were the only ones waiting by my house. We didn't know where Jeremy, Odd, and Ulrich were, but we still waited for them to show up.
I grabbed my sleeve with one hand and pulled it up, where it revealed my watch. It was black watch that was covered in diamonds on the outside of the clock, and had my name engraved in pink. I didn't really know who gave me the watch, but the only thing I knew, was that I had found it when it slipped out of my backpack while I was taking out my black binder one day. The next day, I had asked almost everyone at Kadic who gave it to me, but they all said that they never gave me the watch.
"I didn't put a watch in your backpack. If I did I would have given it to Aelita." Nicholas answered dumbly, when I had asked him.
"Why would I give one to you?! Your just a weird member of Jeremy's gang!" Sissi yelled when I had asked her. I don't know why I asked her though. Of course she wouldn't give me one! Maybe I had asked out of curiosity...
"Hey guys!" Odd yelled, as he, Ulrich and Jeremy walked toward us.
"Jeez, you don't have to be that loud Odd." William said. He walked toward Odd and they both grinned at each other and high-fived. Over the years, we've stopped being uncomfortable with William, and treated him like a normal person. Odd and him have been being best friends for almost a year now, but Odd and Ulrich are still best buds.
"He's right Odd." Aelita smiled, and walked toward Odd. Odd smiled as well and they both kissed. They've been dating a couple months after William re-joined the group, which led to a shocked me, William, Ulrich, and Jeremy. But Jeremy was the one who took it hard.
"PDA People! Nobody wants to see you kissing!" Jeremy irritably yelled at them. I guess he still hasn't got over it.
"Sorry Einstein." Odd apologized, feeling Jeremy's pain of losing the one he loved. Although he wasn't very sorry for him, he respected him as the good friend he was. After all, he was the one who discovered Lyoko and made our lives more fun and adventurous. And dangerous too.
"Okay then. Apologizing time is over." William said with a bit of irritation in his tone. "If we don't start walking we're going to be late."
"Let's go then, 'Oh smart one!'" Ulrich exaggerated, using air quotes. Irritation showing in his eyes. We all sensed that Ulrich was trying to pick a fight with William, which Ulrich constantly did, but now wasn't the time for that. I decided to step in until Odd did that for me.
"Alright guys, my turn to stop the fight." Odd said as he put one hand in Ulrich's side, and the other in William's side, as if trying to separate them. We didn't know if Odd was being serious or if he thought it was funny, because he looked like he was trying his hardest not to smile.
"He's right quit it guys." I agreed as I folded my arms.
"Let's go you guys! Last one there is a total loser!" Aelita yelled happily as she started running.
"No fair Princess!" Odd laughed, as he too started running. Then the rest of us started laughing and running toward Kadic. But who knew it would all turn wrong once we got there.
A-A-A-A-
When we all finally made it to Kadic, we stopped running and decided to walk as we all laughed and panted.
"Ha! You lost Ulrich!" Odd said he he stuck out his tongue.
"It's not my fault, I was too busy focusing on someone." He said as he caught my eye. My cheeks slightly burned and I looked away. As we walked down the block to Kadic, we all noticed that there were Police cars, FBI cars, and helicopters all over Kadic. A large crowd stood over the school and watched the scene.
"What's going on?" I asked as we stopped walking and stood where we were. A lot of polices were all over the school like ants, helicopters circled the school, and their were some police and F.B.I people talking to one another.
"Something happened guys, and it doesn't look so good." Jeremy said as he stared at the scene. Almost all our mouths were open and Aelita looked like she was about to cry. Odd came over to her and hugged her. She started sobbing under Odd's touch and we all watched Aelita cry.
"Why are you crying Aelita?" Odd asked a bit confused. I didn't know why either but I guessed, because when bad things happen you start crying. And in this case, it was a really bad thing.
"I d-don't...k-k-know..." Was her reply and we watched her cry. Being the girl who rarely cries, I didn't cry, but suddenly I felt my eyes water. And I was tring to hold back the tears. I guess William noticed my "battle" against crying, because he came up to me and hugged me.
And I accepted it.
When we separated I saw the look on Ulrich's face. His face was a mix of sadness and jealousy. But when his eyes caught mine he looked away. I guess he wanted to ignore what he saw, but he couldn't get it out of his head based on the look on his face.
When I looked back at William he smiled at me. I walked toward him and whispered a thank you to him. "You're welcome." He had answered back. And I slightly smiled. I really needed that hug.
"Ready?" Jeremy asked us. The rest of us nodded confidently. "Ready, Jeremy." Aelita started rubbing her eyes to wipe away her tears. Odd helped her by rubbing his thumb on her eyes.
"Let's go guys." Ulrich said in his commando voice and we all slowly started walking to the scene.
B-B-B-B-
"Look here officer, I don't know anything about a 'super computer' or whatever you're talking about!" We heard Mr. Delmas said to an officer. He was about 5'6 with lean muscles with brown eyes, and black curly hair. His police badge was on his uniform and by his side was another officer, only she was a female. She had blond hair that was pulled in a high-ponytail and blue eyes. She wore the same uniform as the other police officer only with two badges instead of one.
"Sir, we have a report that 6 kids from this school know a computer that can return the past. It's a dangerous computer and needs to be destroyed. The 6 kids need to come with us for some tests. They might know information or whereabouts of Franz Hopper and we need it. Please Sir, hand over the kids in peace." The police officer explained as he looked at Mr. Delmas closely to see if he was lying or not.
"Hugen, please. We need to speak calmly about this." The blond officer said. She turned back to Mr. Delmas. "Sir are you sure you don't know about anything we're saying?"
"I really don't know what you're saying Officer." Mr. Delmas answered truthfully. "I don't know a-"
"I know daddy!" We all turned to Sissi as she ran toward the police officers.
"Does she really know anything?" Odd asked the group as we watched from the cafeteria. The rest of the school must've either went home or are somewhere else in the school. Aelita, Jeremy and I just shook our heads. Ulrich and William just moved their shoulders up and back down as if to say 'I don't know'.
"I know daddy!" Sissi repeated. "It's Jeremy's group, officers! They've always been to no good and they always just disappear sometime during school! They're the ones responsible!"
"Hold on. You're telling me, you think 'Jeremy's group' is responsible?" Hugen asked.
"Yes! The people in Jeremy's group are: Jeremy Belpois, Yumi Ishiyama, Aelita S-"
"Aelita? As in Aelita Hopper?!" The officer asked excitedly, as if he was going to meet a movie star.
"No, her name is Aelita Stones! She has pink hair, usually wears pink clothing and she's-"
"Hold up a minute, Ms...?"
"Sissi. Just Sissi."
"Alright...Sissi. Does she look like this?" The officer fumbled a bit in his pocket before taking out a picture of Aelita and France Hopper.
"W-What?" Aelita said shocked. The rest of us were shocked as well. How did he get that picture? We thought there was only one picture left. The picture the police officer was holding showed a little Aelita on top of France Hopper's shoulders. She was laughing as France Hopper smiled as he held onto Aelita's leg so that she wouldn't fall.
Without thinking, Aelita ran toward the police officers. They both looked at her and gasped. The blonde got out a black walkie-talkie and said, "This group four here, we have found her and ready to capture." The two officers started running toward Aelita. Suddenly some officers started running with the two officers and we knew Aelita was in trouble.
"Hold it! Aelita stay back!" Odd yelled as he raced toward Aelita, grabbed her arm and pulled her away. Odd and Aelita ran toward us and then ran past us to the forest. "Come on guys let's go!" Odd yelled and the rest of us ran and followed him. We already knew where we were headed, so we didn't argue.
We were headed to the factory.
ALRIGHT NEW STORY! Hope you like it and tell me what you think! :D
