The scanner door opened. Yumi fell onto her knees and onto the floor, her eyes had a glazed look to them. her eyelids shut. Ulrich ran in the room "YUMI!" he screamed.
He picked her up off the ground. Jeremie! We need to get her to the infirmary, quick! Jeremie rushed in and helped her carry yumi outside. Wait! I need to get someone from lyoko. He told odd to get out of lyoko, quick. Jeremie pulled open the disk drive and put Aelita's materialization software into it. Sweat dripped down his face. A puff of smoke drifted from the scanner and Aelita was inside one of the compartments. Jeremie ran to the compartment and pulled her out.
"Jeremie?" she said dizzily.
"No time to explain. Yumi's hurt... Now COME ON!" he said dragging her up to the surface.
Ulrich sat by Yumi's side afraid and impatient.
"Aelita? What are you doing here?!" he asked.
"Wait for me! What's all the hurry?" odd shouted coming up from the manhole.
"I'll explain later Ulrich. We need to get Yumi to the infirmary now"
They all hurriedly grabbed one of Yumi's limbs and carried her off.

AT THE INFIRMARY,

everyone worked hard to get yumi onto the bed and called the nurse to tend to her.
"I think you kids will have to leave the room...," the nurse said worried.

They all walked outside and leaned against the railing that surrounded the balcony.
"So tell me again why you materialized Aelita?" Ulrich asked
Jeremie started to talk..."Ok. Listen. I created another kind of materialization software. This one gets Aelita here faster, but she disappears into lyoko after 42 hours. I figured it wouldn't work letting her live on earth so I saved it for when we might need Aelita the most. I just figured that she should be with us if yumi...uhh to help her...umm heal."
"Good idea!" Odd said, "Now that she's here, why don't you ask her out?"
Jeremie smacked Odd across the head. Aelita giggled innocently, know knowing what Yumi had meant by 'Going Out'

"Now that you mention it..." Jeremie whispered into Odd's ear. "Maybe I will...."

Odd looked at him in disbelief. Jeremie cleared his throat, with a deep blush on his cheeks.
"Aelita... ummm... will you go out with me?" Jeremie stammered.
"Yes!" Aelita shouted, encasing him in a huge bear hug. Jeremie was shy, then became adapted to Aelita's affection and hugged her back.

Ulrich smiled, but it reminded him of yumi He was worried about her.
Odd looked at him. "Dude it's ok. Yumi will be fine." he whispered.
"It's nothing..." Ulrich said.
"You don't fool me for one minute, Ulrich." Odd said, crossing his arms. Ulrich was getting frustrated, and began to search for a way to get rid of Odd.
"Just... just go talk to Aelita"
"I can't... she's suffocating Jeremie right now."
Both he and Ulrich let out a hollow, sad laugh.

Uncovering from the enormous hug Aelita had just given him... Jeremie cleared his throat and said, "So what do you think happened to Yumi?"
Odd said, "I really don't know. She wasn't shot by anything, XANA wasn't attacking. She just screamed, and faded away."
Ulrich looked up at odd, astonished. "It couldn't have been XANA, Could it?" He said.
"No it wasn't XANA... that I know... there wasn't a trace of him anywhere." Jeremie said.
"Defiantly not XANA." Aelita said.
"Why did you have us pick up rocks from lyoko, Jeremie?" Ulrich said.
"I wanted to see if lyokan objects could be brought back to the real world...it would help to solve the mystery of Aelita's materialization."
Aelita grinned.
"Just so you know, Jeremie, we did get a few rocks from lyoko." Odd said. He reached into his pocket and pulled some pebbles out his pocket. Jeremie looked in at them in wonder.

"It worked?" Jeremie asked. Odd continued.

"They're very fragile in the real world, so be careful. I had a whole pocket full, but they got turned to sand when I got de virtualized."
Suddenly, they heard a sound from the other room.
"CLEAR" (electric shock)

Ulrich started paying attention immediately.
"Oh no. oh my god!" Ulrich said.
They all rushed to the window in a flash.
Yumi lay on the bed, with two electrical shockers placed on her chest.
"CLEAR" the doctor yelled.
Yumi's body jumped on the bed.
"Oh no I can't watch!" Aelita said covering her eyes. Jeremie hugged her for support
Odd stared in disbelief.
Tears of grief fell down Ulrich's cheek. This was the first time he cried in a long time.
Finally, relief came to them. Yumi became conscious, though barley breathing.
The nurse said it was okay for them to see Yumi, but that she was in a very frail state.
Ulrich ran through the door and took her hand.
"Oh yumi are you ok?" he said
"You guys...um Aelita... can I talk to Ulrich for a few minutes please?" Yumi said in a very weak voice
"That's fine" Aelita said
"Come on everyone...." Jeremie said.
Once the door was closed, there was a long Silence.
"Yumi?" Ulrich said.
"Yes, Ulrich?"
"Uhhh.... Yumi, I love you."
"Ulrich, I love you too." she said
He lent down to kiss her. She closed her eyes and kissed him too. It was the best 15 seconds of their lives
Suddenly, Ulrich felt yumi grow weaker. She fell onto the hospital pillow.
"Yumi...Yumi...PLEASE SPEAK TO ME YUMI!" Ulrich yelled
Yumi groaned and took one last breath. Her hand fell from Ulrich's. Her eyes closed.
Ulrich screamed in fury. He pounded his fist into the wall and fell against it.

"No... Yumi...no." He sat against the wall and wept for what seemed like months. The nurse came in and rushed him into a hallway that led outside.
"NOOO he screamed. YUMI ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! NOOOOO LET ME SEE HERR" the nurse struggled against him but finally, she got him outside. He pounded on the door then fell onto the tile and wept.

-------------------------------This was really the end of Yumi.
