New Start Chapter 4

Hey Y'all! I'm back! Who missed me? Sorry so many times for taking forever here, but eh, thats life, right? I won't keep you, so read on!

Beep. Beep. Theo turned over in his bed, facing the wall. "Jeremie, why can't you do this during nonsleeping hours?"

"This isn't homework Theo, when the tower was deactivated, an encrypted file was sent over," Jeremie replied.

Theo sat up and pulled his chair over to the computer. "Any idea who sent it?"

"I'm tracing it back right now, while the decrypting program runs," Jeremie answered.

"Could it be a virus created by Xana?" Theo asked.

"I doubt it, I don't see anything in here to cause harm," Jeremie replied, looking over the file.

Theo yawned. "Well then lets go to sleep and wait for it to run,"

"So dad, how come you never told us that you went to Kadic?" Hiroki asked.

Mr. Ishiyama shrugged. "I never had any of your teachers, the school has changed a lot,"

Meanwhile at the Ishiyama household,

Yumi walked into her mothers room. "Mom?"

"Yes, Yumi?" Akiko asked.

"Are you going to the reunion?" Yumi asked casually.

"I don't think so dear, it's not really my thing," Akiko replied, turning to put some laundry away.

Yumi nodded, about to leave. She stopped when she saw a black, thin book on her dad's night stand. She grabbed it quickly and shut the door, not realizing that her mother had seen her take it.

"Hey Yumi," Theo said, as Yumi sat next to him on the bench.

"Theo look at this," Yumi replied, holding up the yearbook. She opened it up to the clubs section. "Look at this,"

Theo leaned in, "Wow, the Varsity Guard," he muttered.

"It has all our parents, it can not be chance," Yumi said.

Theo leaned closer to her, and his eyes widened.

"Theo? Uh, personal space," Yumi replied. Theo didn't reply, falling over into her. Yumi dropped the yearbook. "Theo? Theo?"

Theo feel to the group, unable to stand, talk, or make any major movements.

"Theo!"

"Yes, yes sir, I understand," Gracie sighed, hanging up. "Well Anthea can't get here for a while, she is on another mission," she whispered to Hans.

Hans sighed, then looked over to Aelita, who was sitting alone. The other kids were still in school.

Gracie walked over to the front desk, demanding information.

Hans walked awkwardly over to Aelita. "Hey,"

"Hey," Aelita muttered.

"I hate to be the one to tell you, but it'll be a while til your mother gets here," Hans said, sitting next to her.

Aelita wouldn't respond. She curled up, pulling her legs into her chest like a little girl.

"Come one Eli, Theo will be okay. The doctors now what they are doing, we just need to wait for them to finish operating. And your mother will be here when she finishes destroying that base in North Kor-"

"What was that?" Aelita looked up at him.

"Oh, the base, uh, forget I said that-"

"No, no the Eli part. Only my mom calls me that," Aelita whispered.

"Oh, sorry, that's just, how I remembered you from when you were, like, 4," Hans mumbled.

"You remember? You've meet me before?" Aelita asked.

"Well of course, your mother and I were really close for a very long time," Hans replied.

"How close?" Aelita asked.

"We were best friends," Hans gave a seldom.

"What happened?"

"It's a long story," Hans replied.

The nurse walked out to Aelita. "Are you the sister? He has been asking for you. Ready to come in?"

Aelita nodded and followed the nurse into the room.

"Hey sis," Theo smiled weakly, sitting up.

"Hey Theo," Aelita replied, pulling a chair up next to him. "How you feeling?"

"Crappy, but think you can do me a favor?" Theo asked.

"NO, I am not sneaking you out!" Aelita huffed.

"No, not that! Can you call Jeremie and have him bring me my laptop?" Theo asked innocently.

"Sure bro," Aelita said, getting up. "Be back in a little bt,"

"Take your time," Theo smiled.

The other 4 Lyoko Warriors walked into the waiting room. "We are here to see our friend, Theo Stones," Yumi told a nurse.

"I'm sorry, only two of you can go in at a time," the nurse replied.

"Odd, you go. Your his cousin," Ulrich said.

Odd nodded. "Come on Yumi,"

While those two went in, Jeremie pulled out Theo's Laptop.

"He must be a workaholic just like you Jeremie," Ulrich smirked, "If he wanted his laptop so badly,"

"Actually, we got something this morning, an encrypted file. We aren't even sure who it is from. Hopefully by now it's done," Jeremie replied.

"Why not look now?" Ulrich asked.

Jeremie shrugged. He opened it up and opened it up. "It's not done encrypting yet, but-"

"What Jeremie?"

"Look who it's from," Jeremie whispered gravely, turning the computer screen to him.

"Waldo Franz- Her father," Ulrich muttered.

Yumi and Odd walked out. "You can go in know," THe nurse said.

Jeremie hurried inside, Ulrich behind him. Theo took the Laptop from Jeremie. "Any progress?"

"We figured out who sent it, your father," Jeremie replied. "But none of the message is done yet,"

Theo nodded. "Okay. Why don't we wait until the message is done before we tell anyone," he suggested.

"Sure," Ulrich said.

Jeremie pulled out his own laptop and began working After talking to Theo for a while, Ulrich left.

30 minutes later:

"Done!" Jeremie exclaimed.

"What does it say?" Theo asked.

"It is just a ton of mixed up phrases," Jeremie replied, confused. "Some cooridnates in Siberia, some equations I can't understand, and The numbers 17.2.1980,"

Theo was quiet, not wanting to say the obvious answer.

"Franz Hopper is alive, in Sibera. I have to tell Aelita!" Jeremie cried.

"No! Don't tell her!" Theo shouted.

"Why not?" Jeremie asked.

"What if it isn't him, and if it is, how do we know it isn't old or he hasn't left. We could be on a wild goose chase. And the last thing I want is Aelita obsessing over something she could spend the rest of her life trying to find. Like my mom," Theo muttered.

"This is her FATHER! She has a right to know. It'll be her chose what we do with this," Jeremie said.

"He was my father too," Theo huffed.

"So don't you want to find him?" Jeremie asked.

"Because it'll ruin everything. Mom is finally getting over him, and Aelita is starting too. It'll also ruin everything fot Ulrich too. We could be happy Jeremie, our family could finally heal," Theo explained.

"But Aelita would want to know," Jeremie argued.

Theo narrowed his eyes. "You better not tell her," he growled.

"You really are not intimidating in a hospital night gown with no back," Jeremie smirked.

Theo shrugged. "Okay then, ruin her life," he then pushed eject on his keyboard, pulling out a disk from the laptop. "And I'll just give her this,"

"You wouldn't!" Jeremie exclaimed.

"Hey, I hate to be like this, but I'm doing this for good," Theo started.

Jeremie left the room in fury. "Odd, where is Aelita?"

"Downstairs with Hans, Ulrich, and Aelita. They're eating lunch," Odd replied.

Jeremie nodded his thanks and headed downstairs. He stopped when he saw the three in the McDonalds, eating. They were talking, and laughing; the three having a good time. And with that Jeremie could not bring himself to do it. He went back upstairs to Theo's room.

Theo smiled. "I was right," he said, handing Jeremie the disk. "Ever wonder if you care a little too much?"

Jeremie gave him a look clenching his fists.

"Hey, what are you going to do? You know how much it'll upset Aelita if I get hurt," Theo said.

"Just like you hurt me?" Jeremie asked.

"Your so, problematic," Theo sighed.

"Your the one causing problems," Jeremie replied.

"Maybe, it's all about perspective," The shrugged.

Sorry for taking like, ever to post. I had some much more planned to put in here, but it was already taking me forever, and decided to add in the Franz part. Originally, I was going to make this 5 chapters like Oh Brother, but there is way to much to tell for one chapter. Are you still enjoying it? Is Theo getting a little to antagonistic? Will Xana attack again?What is wrong with Theo? Is Franz Hopper still alive? Why am I asking so many questions? Pleas R&R and tell me your thoughts.
