A Code Lyoko Story

The season never to be aired

1.Arianna

William walked out of his dorm room with his usual attire: a red long sleeve under shirt, black t-shirt, blue jeans, and black boots. It was a Saturday, which meant only classes in the morning, then, after lunch, exploring in Lyoko. He liked Sundays better, no school and most of the time no lyoko, he could sit around all day in the wreck room and do nothing. He walked outside to the vending machines and got a cup of hot chocolate.

"Hi Yumi," William greeted her as she walked over to him, well not him just the vending machine.

"Hi William," she pushed the button for hot chocolate. "Study last night?"

"No," William said, "But then again when do I?"

"Ha, never." Yumi finished her drink and threw the cup out.

William looked at her, she was dressed as usual, black turtleneck and black pants, but she looked happier.

"Hey Yumi," Ulrich said as he and the rest of the gang came over.

"Hi Ulrich," Yumi smiled.

"Hey guys guess what?" Jeremie asked and he pushed his glasses back on his face.

"What?" asked William as he threw his empty cup out.

"Classes were canceled today," Jeremie enlightened.

"Cool, then I can go home! But why didn't they just call my house?" asked Yumi.

"Uh, it was on the radio," explained Aelita.

"Oh, want me to come back after lunch so we can go to lyoko?" questioned Yumi.

"Yeah, and I'll call you if X.A.N.A. attacks," Jeremie told Yumi as she stood up from the bench she was sitting on.

"Okay, sounds like a plan," and she started walking away.

"Hey, uh Yumi wait!" Ulrich yelled after her.

"Yeah Ulrich?" Yumi asked when he caught up to her.

"Do you wanna, uh have uh lunch with me today?" he asked first looking at the ground then into her eyes.

"Okay," Yumi blushed and smiled.

"Cool, want me to walk you home?" he asked hoping she would say yes.

"Yeah, that would be great," she smiled and the two of them walked out of the school grounds together.

"Uh where did Ulrich just go?" asked Odd.

"I think Yumi has a boyfriend," Aelita said.

"Really who?" asked Odd.

"Ulrich you dolt," William said sort of upset.

"Oh," Odd remarked.

"Alright, since there aren't any classes today I think I'm going to work on Lyoko," Jeremie said.

"Okay, can I come? I have nothing better to do anyway," William asked.

"Sure, Aelita are you coming?" Jeremie asked her.

"Yeah, sure Jeremie," Aelita smiled. So the three of them walked away as Odd left to see if he could get more breakfast.

"Ready guys? Scanner William, scanner Aelita," Jeremie started up the virtualization process, "transfer William, transfer Aelita, materialization!" William and Aelita appeared on Lyoko, in the desert region. "Uh guys there is an unidentified object coming your way…it looks like a…a…human."

"What? But how can that be?" asked Aelita.

"Look," William pointed to what look to be a 13 year-old girl running from two Bloks that were shooting their freeze rays at her.

"Jeremie, should we help her?" asked Aelita but William had already started running to the Bloks, sword in hand. William plunged his sword into the first Blok but the other one hit him with its freeze beam.

"Energy field!" shouted Aelita and the second Blok was killed. "Are you okay?"

"Uh huh," the girl nodded.

"She has fifty life points left Aelita," Jeremie warned, "and William is out for two more minutes."

"Uh who said that?" she asked looking up to the sky, "It didn't sound like him."

"Him? Oh that was Jeremie, who's uh him?"

"He's uh, well uh never mind," William's two minutes were up and he was freed.

"You ok William?" Aelita asked and the girl started to run away.

"Hey wait!" William yelled after her and he started running to catch up with her.

"Leave me alone!" she ordered. William stood in front of her about two feet away. She was pretty, she had blonde hair that was in a bun held together by chopsticks, and her bangs darkened into pink. For her Lyoko attire she wore a pink kimono that went down to her knees but the sides of is below her hips were cut out and reveled a dress that was cut off before the middle of her thighs.

"Who are you?" asked William.

"No one," Aelita hovered up on the over-wing and jumped off next to William.

"My name's Aelita,"

"And I'm William,"

"Nice to meet you, but I shouldn't be here I need to leave," she whispered.

"No you shouldn't, how did you get here?" asked Aelita.

"I don't know how I got to this… other world, where my clothes are or…or," she started to back away.

"It's ok calm down," Aelita ordered politely.

"You're not with him are you…" she asked.

"Him? X.A.N.A?" asked William.

"That's his name?" she asked.

"Yeah, but no we aren't with him," Aelita nodded.

"Ok, so what was your name again?" William questioned.

"Oh uh my name's Arianna."

"You don't remember how you got here then, right?" asked Aelita.

"No."

"How about this sector?" William asked.

"That I remember, I climbed out of this sphere and jumped on this flying thing, it works for him, and I guess it didn't know I wasn't supposed to go so I flew that out of a random tunnel. I though I would get out that way."

"No the only way out is if Jeremie devirtualizes you or you lose all of your life points," explained William.

Arianna stared at him. "I know you," she remembered. "You were here with me and him and you worked for him but…"

"Jeremie made a program to get X.A.N.A. out of me and he took me out of Lyoko."

"You didn't tell him about me?"

"I didn't remember anything that happened to me while I was under X.A.N.A.'s control," William said apologetically.

"But we will do all that we can to get you out Arianna, we promise," Aelita said to her. "Jeremie you can do that right?"

"Yes, get her to a way tower," He materialized the over-bike for William.

"Here Arianna you can ride with me," Aelita suggested.

"Okay," Arianna stepped on. They shot through the desert and came up to a tower that glowed white; the way tower of the sector. One problem though, there was a megatank guarding the tower; X.A.N.A. wanted her back.

"Oh no, Aelita I don't know if she'll really die if she runs out of life points, protect her please," Jeremie warned.

"Ok Jeremie," Aelita said and nodded to William, time to save the day…or this girl.

"Arianna, hide in those rocks for now and let William and I get rid of this Megatank."

"Right, but wait, you guys want some cover?"

"Sure, what can you do?" asked William.

Arianna held out her hand at arm's length. "Smoke screen," she said activating the program. Smoke fogged up everything for the megatank and it couldn't see Aelita, William, or Arianna.

"Cool, thanks Arianna," Aelita thanked and her and William went to attack to Megatank.

Arianna ran behind some rocks like Aelita had suggested. She peeked out from behind one rock and watched William and Aelita. She could see the smoke fading away and the Megatank was still there. It fired at William but Aelita hit it with two energy fields at the laser and the laser dissipated.

"Energy field!" Aelita threw one at the Megatank and it blew up. "Arianna, it's safe." Arianna ran right past Aelita and William, into the tower.

"She has nothing Aelita, no DNA what so ever. It all must be in Sector five. I can't access it from here," Jeremie told them.

"Then we're going to sector five," William said.

"Yes, we promised her we would do all that we could to get her out," Aelita added.

"Ok, head to the end of the sector," Arianna walked out and got on the over-wing with Aelita and they flew to the end of the sector. When they got there Jeremie entered the code SCIPO and the transporter eye came and picked them up. When the door opened Arianna was the first to run out.

"Arianna do you know where you're going?" asked Aelita.

"Yes, I stayed here since I can remember, don't worry I know this place like the back of my hand." She took them to the elevator and up to the access panel was. "I have never operated this before, Aelita you know how right?"

"Uh huh, Jeremie I'm taking over now."

"Okay," he said and granted her the controls. "Oh and be careful the mantas are about to hatch."

"I'll handle them Aelita," William picked up his sword and stood ready to fight. "Arianna, stand behind me."

"Okay," she walked behind William and helped look for the mantas.

"Hurry up Aelita, they're coming!" warned Jeremie as he leaned over in his chair a bit.

"Almost done Jeremie," she kept touching the screen and gathering information. "Found it! I'm sending it to you Jeremie."

"Okay," Jeremie said relaxing just a little bit.

"Jeremie, controls are back to you," Aelita stepped back and let Jeremie take over.

"Thank you, ok I'm materializing the over-wing and the over-bike now," Jeremie typed something in and opened up a few programs as he spoke.

"All right, but uh Jeremie? Where are the Mantas? We can't see them," William kept looking around, but all he saw was empty space.

"I don't know, but I can see them on my screen," he tensed up again. "I'm getting you out of there, tunnel opening in five seconds."

William hopped onto to over-bike while Arianna and Aelita got on the over-wing. They flew out into a tunnel and into the Mountain Region. "Jeremie? So did I get you enough data?" Aelita stopped the over-wing and looked up.

"Uh yeah, but it's going to take me at least another day, I have to make a whole new program. Not from scratch though, I'll build if off of the one I made for you Aelita, then with the information we just got I should be able to."

"So I have to stay here, longer?" Arianna jumped off of the over-wing.

"Sorry but uh yes," Jeremie fixed his glasses on his face.

"But what if X.A.N.A. attacks her and we aren't here?" asked William concerned for Arianna's welfare.

"Someone should stay with her Jeremie," Aelita suggested to the sky where Jeremie's voice sounded like it came from.

"Uh okay, Aelita would you stay with her?" Jeremie asked as he started working on Arianna's devirtualization program.

"Uh huh, of course," she turned to Arianna. "That's ok right?"

"Uh huh, thank you," Arianna looked up. "Thank you too Jeremie, for helping me!"

"No problem," Jeremie said. On Jeremie's screen Yumi's picture popped up which meant she was calling. "Hold on guys—Hey Yumi, what's up?"

"Where are you? It after lunch time," she asked.

"Computer lab, have been all day, come down fast there's something or someone you need to see," Jeremie told her.

"Okay see ya then, bye!' Yumi hung up and Jeremie ended the call and went back to the digital people on lyoko.

"Yumi, Ulrich, and Odd are on their way guys," Jeremie said.

"All right, Jeremie do you think we should train her?" asked William.

"Sounds like a plan," Jeremie added as he started working on Arianna's program again.

"Okay Arianna, we're going to train you how to fight on Lyoko," Aelita said as she turned her direction to the blond haired girl.

"How?" she tuned up her hands indicating she had nothing.

"Arianna, I was looking at your Lyoko design and, take the chopsticks out of you bun," Jeremie guided her along using the information Aelita got from sector five.

Arianna placed her hands on her head finding two chopsticks in her hair; she grabbed them and pulled them out. Surprisingly her bun stayed in. She looked at them. They were two white sticks with a pink sphere and a white sphere on one end of each. "All right, now what?"

"Now throw them in the air, both of them, at the same time," he instructed.

She took one in each hand and threw them up high in the air. When they got to their greatest height they stopped moving and floated there. Then one changed into a bow and one into an arrow; the bow and arrow started to fall so Arianna caught them in mid air.

"Wow," she whispered.

"Good, so there's your weapon, you can do three things with it: shoot it normally, yell shield and shoot it at the ground right in front of you, or yell shield and shoot it right in front of a monster," he explained.

"Good so now you have a weapon," Aelita said.

Then in the computer lab the elevator opened next to Jeremie and revealed Yumi, Odd, and Ulrich. "Hey guys, go down to the scanner room and wait to be virtualized," Jeremie opened up the program that let him materialize people into the virtual world of Lyoko.

"Ok Einstein, this better be good," warned Odd.

"Don't worry, it will be," Jeremie insured.

The three of them stepped back into the elevator and pushed the down button so they could go to the scanner room.

On Lyoko three Krabs appeared to give Arianna, Aelita and William a hard time, but what they really were there for was to protect the Scyphozoa.

"Oh awesome, target practice," William gestured toward the Krabs.

"Uh, ok," Arianna got in position with her bow and arrow. "Shield!" She let the arrow slice through the air. Just like she wanted the arrow hit right infront of one Krab trapping it in a sheild. "What does that do…protect it from us?"

"I think it keeps the monster in one place, try and see if you can still damage it," Aelita suggested.

Arianna got into position again. She shot the arrow again not yelling anything and right before it hit the eye on the Krab's head the arrow head caught fire. The Krab exploded. "I did it!"

"Great!" Aelita congradulated her.

"Oh no," Jeremie started.

"What's up Jeremie?" asked Aelita a little confused and his sunned outcry.

"It's the Scyphozoa," Jeremie said in shock.

"The Scypho-what?" asked Arianna.

"Another one of X.A.N.A.'s monsters," Aelita explaimed.

"So? Can't we kill it like all of the other ones?" she got in her position again.

"No one ever has Arianna," William said.

"Oh," she lowered her arrow.

"The Scyphozoa can steal your memories," Jeremie explained.

"Well I haven't got any of thoes… Can it do anything else?" Arianna questioned.

"Yes, it can put you under X.A.N.A.'s control, which is was what had happened to me when I first came to Lyoko."

"Oh," she took a step back from the ever getting closer Scyphozoa.

"Jeremie you think X.A.N.A wants her back?" asked Aelita.

"Yes."

Above Aelita, William, and Arianna three figures appeared to be materializing into Lyoko. It was Yumi, Odd, and Ulrich.

"Hey guys, start the party without us?" asked Odd. Then he saw Arianna standing there and Arianna quickly hid behind William.

"Who's the girl?" asked Ulrich as he stood up.

"Her name is Arianna, she lives here," Aelita explained.

"How come we've never seen her?" asked Yumi.

"Don't know, she didn't even know where she was when we found her in the desert region," William said. "It's ok Arianna."

She stepped out from behind William.

"Hello, I'm Ulrich."

"I'm Yumi and the one with the ears is Odd," Yumi pointed to the cat-like Lyoko warrior. Arianna smiled at them.

"Scyphozoa!" Odd pointed to the jelly-fish like monster.

"Yes Odd we know," Aelita turned around. "Arianna try your sheild."

Arianna got in her poistion but the Scyphozoa reached out and grabbed her. It was trying to turn her agenst the others.

"Heeya!" Yumi yelled and she threw her fans at the Scyphozoa; cutting it's limbs that had a hold on Arianna. She fell to the ground and the Scyphozoa floated away.

William and Aelita ran over to her. "Arianna, you okay?" asked William when she opened her eyes. Thankfully the X.A.N.A. sign wasn't in them

"Uh I think so," she sat up. "Thanks Yumi, for saving me."

"You're welcome," Yumi smiled.

"Lazer arrow!" Odd yelled at a Krab charging it lazer and Aelita's back.

Aelita turned around where the Krab once stood, "Thanks Odd."

"Any time Princess," he said.

Ulrich jumped up high in the air and landed on the last Krab charging it lazer at him. "Impact!" he yelled and stabbed in right in the X.A.N.A. eye.

"So what are we doing? I mean in way of getting her out of Lyoko?" asked Yumi looking up at the "sky".

"Right now I'm working on the program to devirtulize Arianna from Lyoko," Jeremie's voice sounded fustrated. "I'm going to work on this through the night and it should be done in the morning. But I'll have to do it in my room because of room inspections tonight."

"Oh yeah I forgot!" Odd said.

"So Arianna we're going to have to leave you now, I'll talk to you and Aelita later," Jeremie said. He pulled up a program and brought Yumi, Odd, Ulrich, and William back to Earth.

"Ok bye Jeremie and thanks for all of your help!" Arianna said.
