A/N: So I'm trying to get these updated chapters up as fast as I can. I'll do my best to post these as fast as I can, if not at least once a week. I believe I had about ten chapters in my last story so I'm trying, bear with me.
Disclaimer: I do not own Code Lyoko.

Sittin' in a Tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G
Chapter 1: The Meeting
"There's an activated tower in the forest region!" Came the voice that echoed around the group as they headed to a tower to move regions. They entered a tower with a pink haired digitized girl who easily had them appear in the correct region.
"Come on Jeremy," calls up one of the players, "why weren't we dropped there to begin with?"
"The computer wouldn't let me," explained their friend. "Be glad you weren't all dropped in different regions!" The voice mutters with slight annoyance at his friends. "Three blocks, two mega-tanks, and… Looks like X.A.N.A.'s cooked up something new, all headed straight for you!"
"Alright Jeremy," spoke the pink haired girl as she ran with their friends surrounding her as both her protectors and shield.
"We've got this! Super-speed!" Ulrich calls out before dashing towards one of the mega-tanks. "Triplicate." Two more Ulrich's appeared, helping him surround the tank before he jumped upon it, forcing his katana into the X.A.N.A. mark before jumping off as it exploded.
"Laser Arrow!" Odd yells as he makes his move and hits two out of three blocks.
One shot towards him, but when it came he hadn't feel the newly adjusted pain X.A.N.A. had adjusted into their new coding. Lucky for him, Yumi was the one to block it with her fan. "Be more careful, Odd. We need you to finish taking Aelita to the tower." She gave him a small smile before throwing her fans and hitting the block in its mark. "Go!" She says as she caught her fans when they flew back.
"Aelita watch out!" Jeremy's voice called from the sky once more. "That unidentified object is coming up on you two, fast!"
With those words Odd scooped up Aelita, "Sorry Princess, just hold on and-" he dodged an attack that seemed to come from nowhere.
"Odd!"
"Don't yell Einstein!" He retorted as he set Aelita down and shot off three arrows in the direction the attack had come from. "What was that…?"
Jeremy couldn't help but stifle a groan. He couldn't be there but his friends didn't seem to want to listen to him today. All he wanted to do was get rid of X.A.N.A.'s threat of the day and get back to class before mid-terms started, but here they were. "That unidentified object, it's coming right for you!" He yells again, helplessly watching the map as the object seemed to have picked up speed.
The next words from Odd's mouth made him freeze mid-keystroke. "Jeremy... that object-"
"It's a girl…" finished Aelita in disbelief.
At the mere sight of this new entity the monsters seemed to stop their fighting and bow to her. The girl's face was empty of any and all emotion as a virtual wind picked up and blew her black braided hair to her left side with a white streak that seemed to be intertwined into it. She looked more human than they did in their avatar states, yet it was obvious she was anything but. Her eyes were green like fresh grass, and her skin as pale as moonlight. At that moment she was dressed almost in a mockery of Odd and Yumi with a black body suit which covered her from neck down, and a white and black kimono that fell to the middle of her thighs with a slit up the side as her sleeves fell just below her wrists, loose and hardly covering her human hands. Two knives were strapped to her left thigh, right above knee high black boots. In the midst of it all, they could tell that she was much different from their usual encounters with X.A.N.A.'s monsters. Even more dangerous than William had been at the time he'd been taken over; for right over her heart was the symbol of X.A.N.A.
Jeremy only studied her for a moment, thinking it was strange that there was another being on Lyoko other than Aelita. Distrust instantly settled into the pits of his stomach as he shook his head. Whoever this girl was, whatever she was, it didn't matter. Humanity was at stake again because of X.A.N.A. and this could be dealt with at a later date, hopefully if everything went to plan. "Protect Aelita at all costs!" He called out to his friends who were instantly at Aelita's sides, prepared for anything.
It was when the girl stepped aside to allow Aelita by, even going as far as using a hand to show she was presenting the way in good faith, that Jeremy raised an eyebrow suspiciously. Aelita automatically took advantage of this and ran to the tower with Ulrich and Yumi guarding her back. "I will not harm any of you, not yet." The mystery girl spoke as she looked to Odd, for he was the only one who had stayed where he was, arm lowered. Her voice sent a shiver down their spines even to the point that Ulrich shuddered. Who was she that she was so cold and frightening?
"Who are you…?" Odd couldn't help but question, his arm shaking. If she tried to attack, would he be able to fire in time? "Why- What are you doing here? How did you get in Lyoko?" He demands with uncertainty.
Her eyes were cold as she looked him over before a small smile appeared to grace her lips and she spoke once more, "I am your enemy." At that moment the tower behind her flickered from red to white as Aelita put in her code to deactivate it and put a stop to X.A.N.A.'s evil plans. "You know who I am," the figure says, "but I'll give you a name I use to go by, one I was called before all of this trouble began," she pauses before nodding, "Dahlia." It was as if she had chosen something with a deep resolve.
An orb of light suddenly came from deep within the factory just as she looked closer at the teen before her. "Return to the past now," spoke a relieved Jeremy as he finished keying in the sequence.
SCHOOL, NOW EARLIER THAT DAY
"Who do you think that girl was…?" Aelita mused as the Lyoko group headed for their seats in the cafeteria. "Why would she have been in Lyoko without my knowledge?"
Odd had managed to draw a, somewhat, detailed image of the mystery girl and handed it over to Jeremy to examine it. "Maybe we know her," suggests Yumi with a slight shrug. "She could have snuck in like Sissy did."
"The only other person we allowed to go in there was William and X.A.N.A. took control of him a while back." Jeremy reminds her.
"Yea… but he hasn't been around much lately." Ulrich gave a slight shrug with disinterest, "You think X.A.N.A. decided to give up on him for now? He was doing a pretty lousy job."
This only made Yumi roll her eyes as Aelita gave off a small chuckle. "You got any ideas, Jeremy?" The dark haired girl asked as she took the image from him and looked at it.
"I don't recognize her. I've never seen anyone before with black hair and a white streak through it. Plus this girl had green eyes? Are you sure about that Odd?" Jeremy adjusted his glasses.
Odd just gave a simply nod, "Yea, like emeralds."
Ulrich chuckles and elbows him in the side. "You sure you don't have a new crush on this mystery girl?"
"What?" He laughs just as the bell rang and interrupted their conversation.
Jeremy was the first to stand and sigh, "We'll finish this later." He said. "Maybe go to the factory and see if we can figure out more details about this mystery person, Dahlia."
A/N: I hope you guys like this newly remade chapter. I had started working on it last night and went to bed at four, lol! Glad I'm finally getting it up after some laundry! R&R!
