Chapter 3.
"Now class today we have a new pupil." said Ms Hertz.
Zoe stepped into the classroom and did her introduction again then sat down next to Odd who unlike the first time was awake. Zoe winked at him and he winked back.
In lunch Zoe sat down with the others.
"All right, can you two explain what's going on?" asked Yumi.
"Well as you know me and Odd are childhood friends. But since our parents were almost never around we were very close, like brother and sister close. But then my parents moved to England and sent me to a girls boarding school while Odd was sent here." said Zoe.
"We only ever got to see each other in the holidays but we kept in contact with each other writing. During my first holiday back Zoe knew something was up and got me to tell her about XANA. You see we never lied to, or kept secrets from each other but she swore to secrecy." says Odd.
"My parents transferred me here after someone burned down part of my school and they thought it wasn't safe there." Zoe added.
"Ok that explains how you knew about XANA and Lyoko." says Jeremy.
"How did you learn to defend yourself like that?" asks Ulrich.
"Well my mother got me involved with all sorts of sports like gymnastics and running when I was young. And when a woman in our town was attacked my grandpa taught me and Odd the art of self defence and when my family moved to England my grandpa continued to teach me. That's why on Lyoko Odd and I worked together so perfectly, because we were trained that way." explained Zoe.
"Well I think you will be a valued asset to our team Zee." said Aelita.
"Just be careful for now though because you haven't built up an immunity to XANA yet so he could do to you what he did to William." said Yumi.
"Ok I'll be careful." Zoe said in a sulky manor.
XANA was thinking about his latest defeat. The Vixen who had suddenly appeared she was strong and could handle his solder William but that was because he underestimated her and was about to defeat her until Cat boy came along. And on earth when he had tried to posses her she new what his black smoke meant and got away, then she managed to fight of the one he possessed and won. And when she and the Cat boy started fighting William they were incredibly strong together and worked together in harmony protecting each other. They seemed so close The Vixen and Cat boy in the way they fought together and protected one another.
XANA smiled to himself the young warrior's strength may also be their weakness, he could use the bond between them to ether make them his or destroy them if he was unable to control them.
What is XANA planning?
Will his plan work?
