The final part of The Uneventful Day. Read and review!
After a while the boy caught on to the fact that I was following him and the girl, Aelita, was waking up. He ignored me and continued running after the vines.
"You really need help, don't you?" I ask. Then I realize it's a stupid question.
"Ya think?" He says. I decide to ignore his rudeness and try a little hand at magic, a part of my life that I was beginning to use a lot. I could just imagine my father and his anger at my abuse of it. But, being mentally tired is worst than being physically tired.
Quickly, the forest trees began slamming down to the ground, slowly, each unfortunately missing its target. I forced myself to overload and they fell with the intensity of boulders and hit the vine in its middle and trapped it. The boy finally caught up to the vine and pulled Aelita out of its grasp. She is finally conscious and able to do whatever she needs to do. But then I'm the one whose trapped.
"How did you do that?" They ask in unison. I hesitate. You don't just randomly tell people that you were born with the ability to do things that a normal man could never do.
"Why did a vine try and kidnap you?" I counter.
"If you tell us, we'll tell you." Aelita says. The boy looks at her like she's lost her mind but then she glares at him like she knows what she's doing.
"Okay." Then I'm following them to who-knows-where while the girl is shouting to explain why an inanimate object kidnapped her.
The thing is, not that I understand it well myself, there is very dangerous, very sentient computer virus called XANA that wants to take over the world. I know, I know. That's what all the evil people ever want but never get.
Anyways, the only way for XANA to access Earth is for him to activate a tower on Lyoko, whatever that is, and protect it with monsters. And he usually possesses things to get his goal done. He just so happened to possess vines to try and kidnap Aelita because she is very important to his power.
Aelita and the weird hair boy, and all their friends go to Lyoko and deactivate his towers so XANA's link to Earth is temporarily broken. But Aelita is special because she is the only one who can activate and deactivate towers. XANA can use her to destroy sectors, which Aelita and her friends go on to get to the towers, by possession on Lyoko with a monster called the Scyphozoa. Very far-fetched and unbelievable but through all of this, I can see in Aelita's eyes that it's true.
"And what about you?" She says.
"I use magic." Even after the story I was told, they look like they don't believe me so I say, "Well, I never heard of an evil computer program." That changes their look, quickly. When I finish following them, we're in a room straight out of a sci-fi movie. I'm pretty surprised because this was the last thing I expected to be led to.
There is an unconscious boy at the large computer so the boy goes over to him saying, "Hey, Einstein!" When that doesn't work he says. "Oh my gosh, Aelita is kissing Nicolas." That gets him. Einstein jumps up at lightning speed.
"Huh?" he shouts. The he fixes his glasses and I hear a voice though I'm not sure where its coming from.
"Hey, Jer! A little help please?" I realize it sounds like Ulrich's voice and its coming from the computer.
"Be careful, Ulrich. You have 10 life points- oh, no. Everyone, Ulrich is divirtualized. Head to the scanners." Freaky hair boy and Aelita go back into the scanners.
"What are you doing here?" Jer asked.
"It's a long story." I'm watching as he says something about transferring and stuff and I kind of go into my own world when I'm rudely awakened and freaky hair boy and Ulrich are in front of me.
"What?" I say.
"You know that thing Aelita told you about?" I nod.
"Well, we need your help." I shrug, not realizing what I got myself into.
I was led into the elevator and then into a cylinder shape kind of like a pod. It closed locking me in. Air was pushing me up and it felt like a giant fan was below me. My eyes were forced shut and then intense air stopped.
Everything looked different and cartoonish. It looked almost like the forest but the trees didn't seem to end.
"Wow," I mutter. I'm wearing a blue tunic-ish thing white trousers with blue gaiters wrapped around them. I wonder what's going on before I see that cute little roaches are shooting red beams at me. I quickly realize they're not friendly and run away from them. Then I remember I have an advantage over them. For some reason, my mental tiredness is gone and I feel stronger than ever. Using a quick defense spell, I form an energy bolt and send it off. It hits one cute roach then kind of has an effect on the roaches around that one. Before I can say how awesome that was, Aelita is pulling me towards a tower thing.
Then another visitor comes. This time it's a jelly-fish thing that kind of scares me and makes me want to run from it but at the same time hypnotizes me to come closer. I run away and find myself inside the tower where Aelita does what I believe is deactivating a tower.
Then I find myself back in front of Aelita's dorm.
"What the-" I say.
"It's a return to the past. It makes XANA stronger but helps us out alot." Aelita tells me. And then I say what I wanted to say ever since I found out about Lyoko.
"Awesome!"
