Chapter 2 Rise of Chaos

Lyoko city the most beautiful and mysteries place in the entire virtual world, the Lyoko worriers were in a hurry to get as far away from the industrial district as possible. Parker was leading the group to the outer edge of the city. Parker was in rage at the fact of what the Lyoko worriers had found, "Everything I know is a lie. My people are not even my people and that Xana has left me trapped in this place for decades." Parker was in rage as they neared the city plaza, "Why would Franz Hopper my own father put me here? Why was I meant to play guardian?" Parkers anger was building he was approaching the center were the portal to Lyoko could be opened. As he looked around he saw the protective shield around the city was beginning to fracture and crack. "Whats happening?" asked Aelita standing next to Parker.

Parker began entering commands into the interface near the portal aperture, "The shield protecting the city from Xana is failing. We got about ten minutes before Xana's monsters trapped on the other side can break throught and start destroying everything here. Once their done here they will move onto Lyoko and then it will be all over." Parker opened a com channel and began to speak, "Attention all citizens this is Chairman Parker a city wide emergency has been declared. All citizens evacuate to the ships and leave Lyoko space." Parker closed the channel as sirens began to go off across the city. Parker moved to the central control building directly across the way and moved through the crowds of people flooding into the building. Aelita and the others fallowed Parker down a corridor that read restricted and into a control room overlooking a hanger full of ships that people were packing into. "Welcome to flight control," said Parker sitting down at the command council in the center. "All civilians are boarding the ships and will flee into the internet to find safe harbor. Evacuation is almost complete."

Aelita walked over to one of the wall councils and looked over the data. "What will they do once they get out onto the net?"

Parker finished programing in commands into the computer, "They will attempt to find Carthage the place that we… or I should say they came from before coming here to the skys of Lyoko." Ships began to lunch from the hanger below and plunge into the digital sea, parker watched as people he had come to know vanished from their home. Warning sirens began to ring through the room and Parker ran over to a monitoring station near Aelita. "The shields failing we need to leave now." The last ship plunged into the sea as the group ran out of the room and onto the street. Parker looked up into the sky as the shield collapsed and all sorts of new monsters flooded into the city. Aelita, Yumi, Ulrich and Odd were in shock as monsters that looked straight out of a horror movie began to rain down on the city. Building began to explode as monsters opened fire on the city. A robotic like drone with lasers began to level the nearby buildings as flying plane like creates began to drop bombs onto the city. Debris began to fly into the streets as windows and lights shattered sending glass raining to the ground. Parker was beginning the programs to open a portal to sector five, as the monsters closed in on the center of the city the portal opened and the team ran through it. In Lyoko city explosions leveled parts of the city leaving mostly ruble behind, after Lyoko city feel the monsters moved on to the surface sectors and began destroying parts of the sectors that had some of Xanas newer monsters and even turned to attack the towers. After several of the towers went offline the armys began to occupy the sectors, within minutes the desert and forest sectors were under control of xana. Jeremy began the proses of cutting off control of the towers in both sectors so that no one could use them. As the ancient army began to move into the mountains Xana's monsters began to fight his old creations, swift action on Xana's part kept his old minions out of the mountain sector and stopped them from occupying further.

On Earth Aelita, Parker, Ulrich, Odd and Yumi were all standing in the lab waiting for Jeremys report on what is going on with Lyoko. "It's not good," Jeremy began. "The old army of Xana is out of control and attacking its own master."

"Is that why they are attacking Xana's newer monsters like the Krabs and the Tarantulas," asked Aelita leaning against Jeremy's computer monitor.

"Right," answered Jeremy pushing his glasses up. "The ancient army is hell bent on destroying Xana and Lyoko and gaining complete control of the virtual world."

Parker stood up from his seat on the holo map display, "It would spread through the internet like a plague and take control of every electrical component on earth. If you thought Xana was bad they are worse, every machine on earth would turn against man and destroy us then would move on from earth to the universe beyond us."

"What should we do?" asked Ulrich.

"Fight against both them and Xana," said Jeremy. As Jeremy finished his sentence the holo map came to life with the face of a man that no one could recognize. Everyone turned to see the man as he turned and looked around the lab; he studied the room slowly before returning his attention to Aelita.

"I am Xana all mighty ruler of the virtual world," the head said. "My own creations the ones I made to fight for me against the virtual life forms have turned against me. Now they seek to destroy me and humanity. If anyone destroys humanity it will be me and me alone, Aelita I ask for you and your friends help in destroying my own creations."

The head floated over the holo dish waiting for Aelita's response. The group was all dumb founded with what had just gone down, their most dangerous enemy was asking for their help in a war he knows he cannot win. Aelita turned to look at Jeremy who just gave her a nod and turned back to Xana, "We will assist you even though we still don't trust you." The group stood in silence as Jeremy watched the scanners come to life.

"As a show of my good faith in this matter I will give you back your friend," said Xana. Jeremy looked at the video surveillance of the scanner room and saw William's body drop onto the floor of the scanner room.

Parker and Yumi dashed for the elevator as the others fallowed behind them and Xana's head disappeared. William laid out cold on the floor and parker picked up his unconscious body and held him, "William its Parker wake up."

William's eyes began to flutter and opened. William looked up at Parker and said, "How did you get me back?"

Everyone turned to look at Parker and was wondering what William meant by that. Parker turned to look at the group as he pulled William up onto his feet. "I saved William from the digital sea when Lyoko was destroyed. When Jeremy rebuilt Lyoko Xana then had a link to William again and so he was able to possess William and he was taken away from me and my people.

"What do you mean from you?" asked Yumi.

William then stepped up to talk and said, "When I woke up in Lyoko city I was told about Lyoko having been destroyed and that I probably would never be able to return to Earth. After a few days I accepted that fait and began to live my life. I feel for Parker and we dated." Yumi was in pure shock at what she had heard, William had chased after her but now she knew that William was also into guys and so she had lost the second man in her life.

Parker turned to William and said, "Xana gave you back to us because his ancient monsters trapped behind the barrier attacked him, Lyoko and Lyoko city."

William's eye grew wide when he heard Lyoko city, "Lyoko city is gone!"

Parker kissed William and said, "Yes mostly everyone survived but the city was destroyed." William kissed back and then wrapped his arms around Parker in a big hug as he thought about the friends he had made their in his short time were gone.

"What's the next step," asked William.

"We fight," said Jeremy.
