A/N - Hey! I haven't updates this in a long time, so I apologize to those of you who have been waiting! No more blabs today, here's the story!
DISCLAIMER - I do not own Code Lyoko, if I did, Season 3 would be out by now!
Yumi's alarm clock went off at 3am the next morning.
Stumbling out of bed, she jumped in and out the shower quickly, grabbed her suitcase, left a note to her parents saying goodbye, and ran downstairs.
"Nngh...too early..."she groaned, opening the front door groggily.
"Not a morning person, huh Yumi?" A figure stood on the doorstep.
"Nngh...no Ulrich, I'm not..." she gave him a quick kiss and hug before wheeling her case outside.
Seeing how tired she was, Ulrich decided to be a gentleman, "I'll tell ya what, hop on my back." he gestured.
"You're kiddnig right?" she laughed. Then, realising he wasn't said, "But what about my suitcase?"
"I'll take that too. Watch." He carefully hoisted Yumi onto his back with one arm, and grabbed the handle of her suitcase with the other, "See? Hold on tight!"
Yumi draped her amrs around his neck, "I will."
Making light conversation as to stop Yumi from falling asleep, Ulrich made the short journey from her house to Kadic, where the Minivan Taxi was waiting for them.
"Heya dudes." Argent said sleepily from the back of the van. She was half-asleep on Odd's shoulder, her now violet locks covereing her face, though Odd didn't look as happy as normal.
Ulrich thought he might know why, "Hey Argent, hey Odd. Where are Aelita and Jeremie?"
Evidently, Argent was just as much of a morning person as Yumi, "I dunno Ul-" she gave out a yawn, "-rich, probably making sure the anti-XANA thing is o-" Another one, "-okay."
"We're he-ere!" Aelita giggled, dragging a lime-green suitcase behind her. Jeremie not far behind.
"Hey! Looks like I'm not the only one who enjoys getting up early!" Ulrich laughed. He climed into the van and let Yumi sleep on his lap, sprawled across him and the other seat.
Aelita and Jeremie sat down beside him, jabbering on about some sort of physics, and the driver hit the pedal.
They were off!
After an hour's car journey, they arrived at the airport, feeling slightly more awake, and rather giddy.
As the gang approached the check-in desk, the clerk frowned at Jeremie, "I'm sorry sir, but you can't take that laptop with you on the airplane."
"What! But, ma'am, with all due respect, I really need that!" Jeremie clutched his most prized possession.
"It's against first-class flight rules, I'm sorry. Hand it over." she gestured.
'Uh oh.' Argent thought, ' this isn't gonna be good...I was hoping I wouldn't have to tell them but...' "Excuse me!" she said, "but do you know who I am?"
Everyone turned around to look at Argent. She had plain, mouse-brown hair, and hazel eyes. Just like-
"Serenity Legends!" Odd ran to her, "YOU'RE Serenity Legends - the singer!"
"That's right! I demand that you let my friend here take this laptop of his on the plane!" she demanded.
"Uh, yes, of course! Sorry miss Legends!" the clerk flustered.
When all of their cases had been taken, they turned back to find argent standing behind them, back to normal.
"I'm sorry you had to see that guys. Serenity Legends is just a stage name...I moved to Kadic as me...so that I could be a normal teenager." she shoved the wig and contacts back into her handbag.
"It's alright Argent." Odd said, pulling her away from the others, "Now I know why you didn't want them to know..."
"I think we can tell them...soon. I - I'm not quite ready to have a nig, public relationship. I get enough attention as it is, and, well, I get shy..." she blushed.
"It's okay! We'll just tell them when you wanna okay?" he smiled.
"Thanks Odd." Argent gazed at him, 'Am I...nah, I couldn't be...' "Come on! If we don't hurry, we'll miss the flight!" she yelled at the gang, "Move ya butts!"
Laughing, everyone followed her in good spirits to board the plane.
"Boarding passes please!" the flight attendant chirped.
"Uh, I've got the somewhere..." Aelita fidgeted aroung in her bag, "here you are!" she handed them over.
The flight attendant studied them for a minute, "Okay! Everything seems to be in order here! Please do go ahead!"
"Thank you." Aelita was handed back the passes, and the friends boarded the aeroplane.
A/N - Ow. I've been typing too much lately, my wrist is cracking! ...Oh, but I've still got to update my Pirates of Lyoko...darn! oh well, getting up at half-six tomorrow that should be fun...not.
