Ulrich woke up thinking this day was going to be like any other day. ' Let's see, I'll go take a cold shower, damn you Odd. Then go to the machines stand next to Yumi awkwardly because I want to say something but I can't for some reason unknown to me. Then go eat breakfast, before or after that have my first Sissi encounter of the day, piss her off, go me. Then go to class, act like I know what's going on but who the hell am I trying to kid, least xana can't attack.' Two months ago they locked xana in the prison of the computer. Since then a lot of strange things had happened.
Jeremie finally found time to be with Aelita, and blew that miserably. Aelita thought he was cute and smart but after dating him, realized that's all he was. He wasn't interesting, nor did he know how to be. He wasn't good at jokes like Odd. Aelita had told Yumi she liked Odd, and now actually could do something with that. They managed to free Franz Hopper from the system after they had spent two years trying to find him. Yumi was seventeen, Ulrich, Odd and Aelita sixteen, and Jeremie fifteen, and hating it.
Since they freed Franz Aelita actually had a parent and a home. The government had intervened at the end and helped the team and Franz out. The paid for a house and all expenses to make them keep quiet about the whole thing. The gang announced that Aelita wasn't Odd's cousin, just so they could date. Jeremie was a little angry at first, but after seeing how well it worked between them, wouldn't be surprised if they got engaged soon. Yumi and Ulrich's relationship couldn't have been more awkward.
They had the time available for a relationship, but both were wanting the other to take the first step. Thus, no step was made to improve it. William butting in wasn't making it any easier. Yumi did her usual not interested routine and William knew why. ' Damn you Ulrich.' After a few years of growing, Ulrich was actually taller than Yumi. It surprised her pleasantly how much his growth spurt was, a grand total of seven inches in one year, then another six the following. Yumi stayed the about the same as even Odd caught up. Aelita grew taller than Jeremie, who grew some then just stopped.
Ulrich now the tallest of the group was still the idol in Sissi's heart. Not one day passed when she'd give him a stupid reason to be with her and ditch the people he hung out with. Odd always being there to make a commit would send her away every time without fail. Emilie LeDuc wasn't as persistent as Sissi, making her more tolerable. Ulrich and her would talk occasionally, but he never gave her hint of something more than friendship, which Emilie would dive right in on.
Ulrich walked down stairs from his dorm room and continued down the hall. He was already showered and dress so continued down the hall.
" Morning Ulrich." he heard Aelita say to him from his door that he had just left. Waving her good morning, he saw the door open and Odd's hands pull Aelita in the room in a very playful manner. ' They're going to be late this morning.' Ulrich laughed to himself. Continuing down the hall he reached the stairs and proceeded down.
Reaching the bottom he walked through the courtyard of Kadic that had when Ulrich was in ninth grade, decided to change the schools program for not only jr high, but to include high school. It costed a lot to make the additions to the school, but the profit from the extra attention was worth the investment. Ulrich would be graduating next year, Yumi this year. Yumi was going to college while Ulrich had to only talk to her on the phone. It was already mid October, homecoming dance had passed and he still hadn't found the balls to ask Yumi out. Not like he didn't know the answer, ' Yes.' But was still a little afraid he'd mess it up. Which he knew he would, he wasn't always good at first dates.
Reaching the vending machines, he bought his coffee and leaned against the machine waiting for Jeremie or Yumi, not expecting Odd or Aelita anytime soon. Seeing Jeremie walking over with Yumi he walked over and met them halfway.
" Morning." Ulrich said to both, but seemed to only direct it to Yumi.
" Morning Ulrich. Where's Odd and Aelita?" Yumi asked, noticing the two were not present.
" Probably on my bed again." Ulrich answered taking a sip of his coffee. " I don't see why those two don't get married."
" Because they're too young to." Jeremie said as the obvious fact.
" It was rhetorical genius." Jeremie just shrugged, happy to answer the question anyway. " What's on today's schedule?" Ulrich asked Jeremie, the two sharing most classes, but not Yumi and himself.
" Nothing really. Just the homework in geometry and sociology." Jeremie answered. " Do you need it?"
" Just geometry, I actually understand sociology." Jeremie reached into his pack that was a one strap that he wore around his left shoulder. Reaching into his folder he handed Ulrich the geometry homework and then the three began to walk to the cafeteria. Sitting in their usual seat which was harder to find since the academy expanded the room forty feet. Remembering it was near the beam they sat down in the correct spot as Ulrich began to do his homework.
The first hour five minute warning bell rang and the group split up. Yumi moving right and Jeremie and Ulrich going left. They walked into their first hour class, which was sociology. The teacher was a new teacher to Kadic, being here since they expanded the school. Attendance was called as he began to go by the rows.
" Ulrich Stern?" Mr. Anderson asked aloud.
" Here," Ulrich said aloud.
" Aelita Stones?" Her seat next to Ulrich was empty as he was about to mark her absent. " Aelita's not here?"
" I'm here," Aelita said walking through the door quickly and taking a seat. Her hair was messed up like she had just woke up, though Ulrich and Jeremie knew differently.
" Cutting it close Ms. Stones. Odd Della Robbia?" Ulrich watched the door knowing he'd walk in, in about ten seconds. Odd was waiting at the door, so it didn't look like him and Aelita were together. " Odd, get in this class." The teacher said, seeing this set up several dozen times. " Next time your late, detention." Odd nodded as the teacher began to write notes on the board.
" Odd your hair is.." Ulrich began.
" I know. Aelita loves playing with it," Odd interrupted, stroking his hair down. His hair was just like Aelita's, messed up. Odd had decided to cut his hair a little shorter, but still kept it spiky. Aelita liked how his hair didn't need gel to stay straight, it made his hair fluffy and fun to play with. The bell at the end of first hour rang and the students picked up theirs books and made for the door.
At the gate of the academy four white vans appeared and stopped. The first one in the convey honked its horn and alerted the gate keeper of their presence. The ground keeper poked his head around the corner and looked at the vans.
A man in the van stepped out to the fence and said, " We're here for the new shipment of computers." The gate keeper looked at his lists of vehicle to let by, didn't see anything about computers.
" You're not listed. No entry, sorry." The gate keeper turned around and then felt something poke his back.
" Add us," the man said with a gun to the keepers back.
" I'm just a gate keeper." His answer wasn't the right one so he placed the gun to his head and pulled the trigger. It was silenced so no one heard it. Dragging the body closer to the gates he grabbed the keys and unlocked the gate, letting the cars drive into the school courtyard.
