Chapter 3:

Prison Asylum. 12:00 Midnight

"I feel like I can do anything," said William as he felt Xana's dark presence within him, "But how?"

"I am with you," replied Xana, "I am you! I will guide you with this new power. And when we are done with a few things, Yumi will be yours."

"Stop!" cried a voice in William's mind, "You do not want to do this!"

"Who are you?" exclaimed William out loud, "Whoever you are, I will do whatever Xana asks me to do! I have never felt this powerful!"

"It is an empty power William," said the voice, "You are a good person. Let go of your hate and your anger."

"I have had enough of your meddling," cried Xana from another part of William's mind, "William! If you dismiss this voice, then it will leave!"

"Go away!" shouted William in his mind. William felt the voice sadly leave his mind. Xana had triumphed. All was going to plan.

No sooner had the voice gone away when a man walked into William's room. This man was Father Mathews Belopis (Is that how you spell Jeremie's last name?). Now, Father Mathews had lived a 26 year existence and was devoted to helping those in prison. He had short blonde hair and wide, bright green eyes.

"What is going on William?" asked the priest, "Sorry. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Father Mathews Belopis."

"This man may prove useful to us." said Xana in William's head. Stretch out your arms and unleash our power."

"Just because you've done some bad things in your life doesn't mean you're a bad person," Father Belopis continued, "I have done bad things too-oo."

The priest had no time to finish. William had lifted up his arms and Xana's electricity rushed through them and Father Belopis was knocked against the wall."

"Shut up mortal!" cried Xana/William, "Stop your blabbering!"

Father Mathews looked in William's eyes. There was some sort of symbol in them.

"Mortal?" gasped Father Mathews, "William! Quick. You're possessed by a devil! Fight it! In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, come out of there Satan!"

To Father Mathews surprise William/Xana began to laugh, "I am no devil young human. I am a computer program. And you will assist my host and I."

'What can he do for us?' asked William in his head.

'He can help us escape without arousing suspicion,' replied Xana and to the priest Xana said, "You will escort us out of this prison. Say that we are being transferred."

"Never," said Father Mathews defiantly, "I would rather die. William, please, break free of this evil's control.

"I am not under anybody's control," snarled William in his normal voice.

"If you refuse to help my host and I," Xana took over, "Then you die!" In that moment, Xana/William smashed the poor priest against the wall with great force. Father Mathews last words before losing sight of the room was. "Why?"

"It looks like we will have to go for the less subtle approach," chuckled Xana in William's mind.

William only nodded (or at least tried to nod) in shock. He had never seen such a spiteful act in his life. He felt his arm break down the back wall and his body jump and run and smash the fence separating Xana and him from freedom.

Yumi's House 8'O clock in the morning

Yumi woke up with a start from one of the best dreams she had in her life (which of course involved Ulrich). After doing whatever girls do when they wake up, Yumi walked down the stairs to come face to face with her little brother Hiroki. Before she could say knife, Hiroki yelled, "Hey Yumi! Your boyfriend, Ilrich is here!"

"It's Ulrich," replied Yumi blushing as her brother ran upstairs to do God knows what.

"Yumi walked downstairs to find Ulrich standing nervously. Mr. Ishiyama sat staring, but was not verbally abusing him the way one would expect a dad to do to a teenage boy who was associated with his daughter so Yum guessed that her mom had told him about what happened the night before. Yumi's blood boiled at the thought of what William tried to do.

"Morning dad," greeted Yumi.

"You okay," asked her father in a concerned voice, "Your told me everything about last night…"

Mr.Ishiyama was cut off by a kiss on his forehead from his daughter.

"I'm fine dad," replied Yumi, "I just want to forget about it."

"Okay," said Yumi's father in a slightly relieved tone, "Just be home by 5:30 if you are hanging out with your friends today."

"Umm… Yumi," blushed Ulrich, "I just came here to see if you still want to hang out with Odd, Aelita, Jeremie, and I today."

"Of course I still want to," blushed Yumi, "I guess we should go now."

"Right," said Ulrich.

After walking outside in the snow, Yumi asked, "What did my dad say to you?"

"He just thanked me for helping you and asked if William was beat hard enough. When I told him about him giving up and us taking him to the principal's office he just grunted and muttered something about beatings supposing to be part of the school discipline system."

Yumi smiled, "Did you really mean it last night when you said you loved me?"

Ulrich blushed, "Of course I did. Ever since I first saw you I've been sure that you were the only one for me. Why do you ask? Did you mean it last night when you said you loved me?"

"I did mean it Ulrich. How could I not?" asked Yumi.

"Well, here," said Ulrich blushing as he gave Yumi a wooden necklace with a heart in the middle of it, "It's okay if you don't like it. It's just something I made a few months ago." He grinned, that was why I had some cuts on my hands for weeks."

Yumi gave Ulrich a quick kiss on the lips "It's beautiful Ulrich," I will wear it everyday."

After awhile the couple found Aelita, Jeremie, and Odd sitting on a bench. Jeremie was in tears.

"My uncle is dead!" he cried when he saw them coming.

A/N. Poor Jeremie. Do you like it? Do you hate it? Please review and suggestions, of course, are most appreciated.
