CODE LYOKO-GENERATION X meets X MEN-SWITCHED LOYALTIES– Coded Loyalties Chapter 1
I do not own Code Lyoko or X-Men…just this story and my characters. It's a combination of two of my previous stories, Code Lyoko Generation X and X Men Switched Loyalties. The lyoko warriors and the X-Men may find something they have in common. Origins version of Sabretooth.
The lyoko warriors and almost every other student in Kadic were in the main hall. Jim steps up to the microphone to calm the rowdy students, then the Principal, Jean-Pierre Delmas came to the microphone to make a big announcement, that a few students were leaving them for New York for the summer.
"Okay, quiet everyone." Jim says as the students got louder for some reason, which kinda pisses Jim off "I said QUIET! Mister Delmas." He grumbles as he leaves the stage and Delmas steps up.
"Uh, thank you, Jim." The principal said as the man only nodded in reply "as you know, some students will be leaving us for the summer, thanks to our friends at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. If chosen, I would like you to give them the same respect as you would your teachers here at Kadic."
"Ooh, I've never been to New York before, I'd love to visit the Statue of Liberty" Andrew said with a grin turning to his friends as they all enter the large room "Maybe we could ask the guy who runs the school to go, if we're chosen that is" Koichi says in reply as they await the results of who would go.
They notice a man with red sunglasses, Scott Summers, talking with a bald man in a wheel chair they'd assume was Mr. Charles Xavier. There was also another man beside them; he was unusually quiet and basically towered over Scott like a giant. He was wearing a suit he didn't seem to like much, but noticed immediately that they were staring at him, so he stared back momentarily with his red eyes and a charming smile across his face as his straight, black ponytail hangs over his right shoulder. Max whispered to Jacob "Those have to be the coolest contacts I've ever seen" Jacob nods and replies "Maybe he'll share some with you. That is the tallest and most obscenely ripped Japanese guy I've ever seen in my life, though." Everyone nod in agreement at his astounding height and muscular build.
Jim came back to the microphone, this time with a paper in his hand. "Okay, everyone, those whose names are called are to stay here in the auditorium. Otherwise, you may return to your classes or go about your day, just get out." Jim says as the Japanese man chuckles at the last part and Delmas glares at Jim. "Okay, here we go." Jim says ready to call out the names as everyone is at the edge of their seats:
MAXIMILLION C. DELLA-ROBBIA.
Max fist-pumps silently "Score" as Delia turns to him "I didn't know you had a middle name, Max." Max shrugs and chuckles "Yeah, it's just Cornelius. No biggie."
JACOB DUNBAR.
Jacob only mumbles "Eh". He doesn't really mind whether he goes on this particular trip or not, then smiles "Sounds fun."
ANDREW DELLA-ROBBIA.
"Yes!" he celebrates to the sound of his name "Go, Andrew. It's ya birthday."
DELIA ISHIYAMA AND JAKE STERN.
The siblings bump fists.
KOICHI BELPOIS AND ELYON STONES-SCHAEFFER.
Elyon blushes silently as Koichi only shakes his head.
With some disappointed aw's and relieved ah's, everyone whose name weren't called left the auditorium as the professor's group walks up to them.
"Hello, young ones" the voice of the calm bald man in the wheel chair came "Hello, sir" the seven say in unison. "I am Professor Charles Xavier; I run the school for gifted youngsters."
He them turns to the man on his left with the sunglasses "This is one of our younger students, Scott Summers" Scott nods at the group with a smile.
He then gestures to the muscular, fair-skinned man leaning against the wall, watching the other students leave then to them "And this, is one of our fine professors, Dairou. He teaches Phys. Ed, just like Mister Morales does here." They wave hello as he walks up to them and bows. The students then bow back to him, although Delia had to slap Max down for him to bow.
Delia glares at Max "Hey" she whispers "That's a sign of disrespect to not bow."
"So?" Max retaliates but before he could say anything, he was bowing like the others, when Delia punches him in the gut "So, you better bow or you're a dead man." She growls as Dairou chuckles "You must need to pack, right Professor?" he turns to the kids then Xavier.
"Actually, sir, we don't need to pack" Elyon started as Dairou raised an eyebrow and asked "Why is that, dear?"
"Well, the principal had told everyone to pack ahead of time; just in case they'd be chosen" Koichi added. Dairou turns to Scott "Well, what now?" Scott shrugs as Dairou resists the urge to slap him in the face "Well" Dairou turns to the kids, growling slightly "We'd come by and pick you up in the morning, bright and early, so be ready, okay?" The kids nodded "Yes, sir" in reply as they all left the room.
The professor nodded and handed them each his business card then they shake hands and leave. The kids are now on their way back to the dorms, when Koichi's laptop beeps. Little did they know, Dairou was still eavesdropping on them.
"Wow, already XANA?" Koichi says as he opens his laptop, revealing an activated tower.
"Great timing, real great timing." Jacob growls as they made sure the coast was clear before heading to the factory.
Dairou follows after sending a mental message to Xavier. "Prof, you there?" Dairou thinks as he drops his mental barriers and feels the professor enter his mind "Yes, Dairou. Where are you?"The professor asks in concern as Dairou is now in a tree, watching the teens go down into the sewer. He narrows his eyes and follows them.
He enters the sewers, but finds them gone as the Professor leaves his mind and his self made mental barriers go back up like a concrete wall. He hears their skateboards/scooters in the distance and follows the sound, remaining far enough away that they don't notice anything before finding said vehicles at another ladder. He exits seeing them in the distance with the Cajun teacher, Dante "He's Dante something, right? What is he doing here?" Dairou wonders under his breath. He exits when he hears them go down in the elevator.
He proceeds to follow when a scream catches his attention "Aah! An electricity monster!" A student yells as a monster made of pure living electricity prepares to attack Kadic. He looks back at the elevator "That sounds too far-fetched, but still... Scott could handle it." he thinks seeing Cyclops' optic blast barely fazing the monster before taking the elevator down to the lyoko warriors' base of operations.
When the elevator opens, he finds Koichi at the controls that he was sure weren't the factory's controls as Delia, Jake and Andrew got into fighting stances, so does Dairou. They figure they won't win as Dairou glares at them. "Explanation. Now." He growls as they think of a lie "And don't lie to me or I may consider telling your principal about this and I doubt he'll be happy."
Dante dares to confront him "Leave now" he growls but Dairou ignores the threat stepping out of the elevator "Believe me, you don't want that. I leave here without an explanation and I'm going straight to the principal's office and you should give up on trying to intimidate me while the getting's good." He then pulls a sword off his back with a crazed look in his red eyes "You won't want to get me angry, would you?"
"Fine!" Koichi says, really not wanting the super computer destroyed "but we'll tell you on our way to New York, okay?" Dairou only nods in reply.
Lyoko... Franz enters the CODE: LYOKO and deactivates the tower. The warriors are materialized and go to get ready for New York as Dairou swears he won't tell the Principal, as long as he get a full, in-depth explanation. They activate the RTTP, but Dairou's mental barriers made sure he doesn't lose the memories and Xavier shields his and Scott's minds. The lyoko warriors are packing and are ready to leave their rooms, but soon find that they can use their lyoko powers in the real world, without their virtualizers, but hide it for now. Their ride to the airport arrives and they meet Dairou, Rogue, Ororo and Remy at the airport waiting for them.
"Hi, Mr. Cerulean" Elyon smiles at Dairou, who chuckles back "Please, everyone just calls me Dairou." Max looks at Ororo in awe "Is she a goddess?" he thinks as Remy looks at him funny, "Um, Dairou, who're they?" Jacob asks as they introduced themselves.
Remy tips his hat at the group "Remy LeBeau. A pleasure, mon ami. Gambit works fine too." Storm brushes her snowy white hair from her face, as her chocolate coloured skin glistened in the sunlight "I am Ororo Monroe or Storm, it is very nice to meet you." Then they turn to the Southern belle, named Anna Marie or Rogue "Hi" she said in a sweet southern accent "I'm Anna Marie, e'erbody calls me Rogue. Ready to go?"
They got on the plane, ready for the long first class flight back to New York. Remy sat trading jokes with Max, while Koichi sat with Dairou. Delia and Ororo sat with each other while the Belpois/Stones siblings sat together and Jake and Jacob sat with each other alongside Rogue.
Koichi turns to Dairou "Hey, Dairou?" Dairou turns to look at him "Hm?" "Max was thinking he could borrow some eye contacts from you and Remy" he chuckles, turning back to his laptop as Dairou raises an eyebrow "Why would he ask that?" he asked with a confused look "Remy and I don't even wear contacts." Koichi shrugs "Well, explain that to him."
Rogue chuckles "you've never seen mutants before, have you, darlin'?" Jacob shakes his head "No, only some guy with a bucket on his head who called himself Magneto on television one time" Rogue chuckles at the thought of Magneto's helmet looking like a bucket.
By this time it was almost sunset, the plane finally touches down in NYC and everyone comes out to a few Sedans and a really teched-up vehicle they've never seen before. Dairou smiled and got on to the strange vehicle, which were covered in symbols that glowed at his touch, while the other X-Men took the sedans.
"Get in" Dairou calls to an excited Max as he helps him get in the vehicle "Wicked!" Max says "I've never seen a vehicle like this before, where'd you get it?" Dairou smirks as he starts the engine "I built it myself. You'd want to hold on before you get thrown off." Then they speed off, ahead of the sedans before slowing down a bit for them to keep up.
They made it to the mansion as the sun was setting, the lyoko warriors amazed at the size of the house as they rode through the main gates of the property.
Led by Remy, the kids were led to a particular room first and the door was shut. Remy had a lighter in one hand and rumpled old newspapers in the other with mischief written all over his face and smile, he instructed and warned the kids "Watch this, kids and NEVER, EVER try this on your own."
He started banging on the door as he heard an annoyed growl inside "Victor, the mansion's on fire!" he said loudly with a wink to the now confused warriors. "I don't smell smoke, Cajun. Whadaya want?" the person inside growled gruffly making Elyon think there was a werewolf inside.
"The professor said to meet him downstairs to help put out the flames, a few of ya beers exploded, too Garcon." Remy chucked under his breath as he lit the rumpled newspapers and let some of the smoke into the room from under the door.
The sounds of Victor coming off his bed and coming to the door was heard with muffled growls and cursing in multiple languages, Delia swore she heard a little Japanese somewhere there too, as the door opened and the kids prepared for the worst.
Victor's giant, clawed hand and arm came through the open door and grab the flame on Remy's hand, putting it out then swatting Remy's forehead with it before the lyoko warriors found that they were staring into amber eyes as the door opened completely "Who might you be?" Victor says with a toothy grin at the kids who weren't sure if what they were seeing was real as Max touches his hairy arm and looks at Remy "No way. You own a werewolf?!" he asked excitedly as Remy couldn't help but laugh at Victor's expression to the remark, he was about to answer when Victor threatened to kick him.
Victor clears his throat with a raised eyebrow "Werewolf?" he asks as Koichi gasps "You can talk too? How many languages?" Victor rubs his eyes and blinks a few times before answering with a glare at Max "Several...and I ain't no dang werewolf! Call me Victor Creed or Sabretooth. Who are you bratty runts anyway?"
Remy calls each of their names as they raise their hands to their name. "I'll see you downstairs. Scare me like that again or joke about my beer, Remy and I'll tell the Dairou you tried to bathe Fang again" Victor said with a smirk as he closed the door and Remy gulped.
They walked down the hall as Delia asks herself "I wonder who this Fang is." As she wondered what it'll look like. As they walk past another door down the hall from Victor's, however the door opened and a hand came out slapping Remy upside the head, "Who's the idiot-?" Remy's words caught in his throat when he saw it was Dairou who stood at the door of his own room as the biggest wolf you've ever seen stood beside him looking at them "Victor told me. Thanks for giving Fang a bath, LeBeau." Dairou smiled.
Meanwhile Fang walks over to Elyon, who has her mother's fear of wolves and is scared stiff, begging her to scratch behind his ears, which she does after a while. "I'm guessing this is Fang, Dairou?" Elyon says still petting Fang and looking in Dairou's direction as he nods and smiles in reply "Looks like you've made a new friend, watch out for the razor sharp teeth even though he won't bite you."
The teens take turns petting Fang before exploring the rest of the house and seeing their rooms. Now they were on their way to Xavier's office with Dairou when he stops them in the hallway. "I want that explanation...now." Dairou said as he leaned against the wall with a look on his face like he'd kill someone at any minute.
The warriors decide to stay mute, so he decided to pull out his cell, reminding them of his previous threat if they refused to tell him as he shows it to them "Delmas will love the story I've got for him." Then an idea crept into his head that would be a far worst punishment than being ratted out to Delmas "Oh yeah, it almost slipped my mind. Today's the day for Victor's Danger Room Program X."
Elyon was now staring at him dreamily until a glare broke her dream as Max raised a hand, getting giddy about this 'Danger Room' idea "What the Danger Room like and what's Program X?"
"Come with me." Dairou signaled to the teens to follow as he made his way down the halls until they made it to the Danger Room's gigantic metal doors which open with a rush of wind revealing the training area of the X-Men, the Danger Room.
"The Danger Room is the high-tech training area of the X-Men" Dairou says as the he pays very close attention to the teens, though they don't seem to notice "and Program X is a special program, among many others, that is run by Sabretooth at least once and only once every year."
Max raises his hand and Dairou nods at him "You mean that werewolf guy?" Max asks as Dairou replies "Yes, but he's a feral, not a werewolf"
Dairou gave them a tour, sort of, of the Danger Room and the control centre then they stay outside the Danger Room, ready for bed
"In the morning, you're telling me all about that factory...by ease or by force, but for now get to bed" Dairou yawns as the teens nod "Arigato and g'night." He says in a moody tone as the X-Men and Team Lyoko Gen X hit the snooze button.
A/N – Next chapter, Team Lyoko's first Danger Room Session and/or mission. R&R but not too harsh please, this is a combination of my previous stories Code Lyoko: Generation X and X Men – Switched Loyalties...so I suggest you read those first to get to know the characters. I'm planning a Switched Loyalties sequel too, so look out for it.
Warrior-of-Darkness015 out.
