S/N: Hi peoplez! So, this is my first Code: Lyoko fanfic. I didn't really plan to have a Code: Lyoko fanfic. I was just watching Code: Lyoko episodes o my laptop and then suddenly, this idea came to me. I am originally a Naruto writing author, just so you know. Enough of my rambling, enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own Code: Lyoko! Thomas Romain and Tania Palumbo own everything Code: Lyoko-related! I only own the plot! PLEASE DON'T SUE ME!
Chapter 1: Strange Things Happen
"Megatank! 2:00!"
"I got this one!"
Ulrich speeds towards the Megatank on his overbike, dodging all of it's attempts at hitting him. He jumps up from the overbike, spins in midair, and strikes the Megatank with his saber right in the Eye of XANA.
"Got him!" Ulrich shouts, landing back on the overbike and going back towards the others.
"Nice, now let's go!" Yumi says with Aelita riding behind he on the overwing.
"Blocks! Behind us!" Odd yells, shooting a few laser arrows in that direction, hitting a few.
"I got these guys, go on! I'll catch up later!" Yumi says. The others leave, Aelita getting on Odd's overboard.
"Ready to dance?" Yumi says, getting out her fans. The blocks shoot a few lasers at her, which she dodges, and she throws her fans in the direction of 2 blocks near the back, hitting them.
"Tarantulas up ahead!" Ulrich warns Odd.
"Great! I love these guys! They throw great welcoming parties!" Odd jokes, starting to speed towards the tarantulas. He shoots a few laser arrows at one of the 2, missing each time.
Ulrich takes out his saber and starts to speed towards the other tarantula, which just started to shoot at him. He dodges all of the attacks, and throws his saber at the tarantula, destroying it in one shot.
"Hold on Aelita!" Odd yells to Aelita.
"Wait, what are you-" Aelita says before Odd spins the overboard, shooting the tarantula in the Eye of XANA several times.
"Bulls-eye!" Odd shouts as the overboard comes to a stop.
"I think I'm gonna be sick," Aelita says, rubbing her head.
"Sorry 'bout that, Aelita," Odd says, dropping her off at the tower.
"Take this!" Yumi yells, throwing her fans at the last 2 blocks. She catches up to Odd, Ulrich, and Aelita and says, "What did I miss?"
"Oh, nothing much. Now, Aelita, deactivate the tower," Jeremie says.
"Right," Aelita says, running towards the tower.
"So, how much did you get, Ulrich?" Odd asks.
"Oh, not much, just about 15 this week!" Ulrich brags.
"Oh, wow! That's so impressive! Especially when I got 19 this week!" Odd says.
"You're lying! You never tell the truth when talking about the scores!" Ulrich accuses.
"Well, even if he's lying, I still got 1st place with a score of 22!" Yumi says, joining the conversation.
"No way!" Ulrich says.
"There's no way you could have done that! You're lying!" Odd accuses.
"No, actually, you're lying," Yumi says.
"Actually," Aelita says, running towards them after the tower was deactivated, "I think I got the highest score of 26."
"What?!" the other Lyoko Warriors shout in unison, causing Aelita to giggle.
"Alright guys, let's get you ba-"
Jeremie was interrupted by something strange and unexplainable. All of a sudden, all the Lyoko Warriors feel a shock of electricity stream through their bodies. The electricity was white and going on for about a minute or so. Jeremie, who was just about to dematerialize the Lyoko Warriors, felt the shock to the same extent.
"Was what that?!" Odd shouted when the electrical shocks stopped.
"I-I don't know. This is really strange! Do you guys feel anything funny?" Jeremie asks.
"No, everything feels the same," Ulrich answers.
"Yeah, nothing really changed. Was it XANA?" Yumi says.
"Not sure. Though, it's not very possible XANA would do something like this without obvious changes," Jeremie says.
"Was it the circuitry in the computer's mainframe?" Aelita asks.
"Maybe. I don't know for sure. For now, it's safe to devirtualize you guys and I'll check it out tonight."
"Kay! Don't stay up to late, Einstein!" Odd says while they devirtualize.
The Next Morning...
The Lyoko Warriors all met up at the bench outside the school.
"Did you find out what happened last night?" Aelita asks.
"Yeah. It wasn't anything very serious. Just a circuitry problem that I fixed very easily," Jeremie says.
"Great! To think, I thought I was gonna have to give up my lunch!" Odd exclaims.
"How would that help anything?" Ulrich asks skeptically.
"I don't know. But to think I was actually considering it!"
Aelita giggles and says, "So did the shock do anything to our powers on Lyoko?"
"No. It just caused a bit of pain, that's all. It's all fine now," Jeremie answers.
"Great, now all we have to worry about is Gym. I heard that my class and yours is coming together for the pool," Yumi says.
"Great, just what I needed. A refreshing day at the pool to recover from all those XANA attacks!" Odd says.
"Yeah, what was with all those attacks anyways? We had to spend the entire day yesterday to take care of XANA!" Ulrich complains.
"I bet that he's plotting another attack later," Yumi says.
"Well, you never know. Now let's go, we'll be late," Aelita says.
Everyone walks to their own separate classes and the day flies by quickly. Although, in the factory, th supercomputer starts up suddenly, gets covered in white electricity, and turns itself off. The white electricity travels throughout the entire factory, and starts going towards the school...
Soon, Gym comes by and Team Lyoko is sitting on the benches.
"No, I'm the most powerful one of all of us!" Ulrich brags to Odd.
"Please! I took care of more monsters this week than you could ever dream of!" Odd retaliates.
"Are you kidding? You were obviously lying! There's no way someone like you could do 19!"
"19 what?" Sissi asks, just getting there and sitting next to Ulrich.
"Nothing," Odd and Ulrich say at the same time.
"Hmph," Sissi says before leaving for her turn at the pool.
"Hey, Yumi," Odd says.
"What?" she asks.
"What's this?" Odd takes out a Japanese fan with cherry blossom patterns on it out of Yumi's bag.
"A Japanese fan. It's from my grandmother. I must have accidentally brought it with me. Oh, well, I'll bring it back later."
"Can I see it?" Aelita asks.
"Sure. Just be careful with it. It's an important object in my family and it's very old, so it's fragile too!"
"Don't worry, I'll be careful." Aelita opens up the fan and narrows her eyes in contemplation. "Um, guys?"
"What is it, Aelita?" Jeremie asks.
"Am I the only one who thinks this looks strangely identical to the fans Yumi has on Lyoko?" Aelita says, examining the fan.
"Yeah, it does kind of look like it," Ulrich says. "Weird."
"Must be just a coincidence. A lot of Japanese fans have cherry blossom patterns on them," Yumi shrugs, taking back her fan.
"Well, I guess that settles that," Jeremie says.
"Yeah," Ulrich says, reaching down to get something out of his bag. "What the?! H-how?! What is this?!" he says.
"What is it?" Aelita asks. The others look at him, confused and curious.
"Look at this!" Ulrich says, whipping out something big. It was a regular-sized Japanese katana; identical to the one he uses on Lyoko.
"What the?! How?!" Yumi starts, but is interrupted by Jeremie whispering, "Put it away! Put it away! Jim is coming!"
Ulrich flusters a bit, but successfully hides the katana under the bench. When Jim passes by, Odd asks, "How did you get that?!"
"I don't know! It wasn't there before!" Ulrich defends.
"Well, whatever it is, it isn't good. I'm positive that that's the sword you use on Lyoko, Ulrich," Aelita says, pointing to the katana.
"Is it XANA?" Yumi asks.
"I don't know. I'm not sure if he's able to do something like this. I've gotta check it out," Jeremie says, but is stopped by Odd.
"Uh-uh, no way, Einstein. You've skipped Gym to many times already, if you do it again, you'll be sure to get suspended, or even expelled!" Odd says.
"Odd's right, Jeremie. You can wait until after school to check it out," Ulrich says. Kicking the katana into his bag.
Jeremie sighs. "Alright. I guess it could wait. Hopefully XANA is willing to give us a break this one time."
"Knowing XANA, he never takes a break," Yumi jokes, trying to lighten the mood.
"Well, you never know. Maybe the problem we're having is affecting him, too," Aelita points out.
Just then, as if on cue, a familiar shriek, preferably from Sissi, was heard throughout the Gym. Then, it was followed by a bunch of other screams from classmates, who are running away from an exit.
All of a sudden, Yumi gasps and stutters, "Wha? I-is that?!"
"What? What is it, Yumi?" Ulrich says, looking at her, concerned.
"Is that a Block?!" she says.
The blocks come swarming in. one after the other, heading for the Lyoko Warriors. One of the blocks charges up a laser, and aims it, right at Aelita's head.

S/N: CLIFFHANGER! Wow, making cliffhangers are fun!
