Okay sorry for the old up but here's Chapter 4. I expect either 1to 2 more chapters after this for this story. I'm planning another Code Lyoko Fan-fic, and that one will be much longer than this. This was a random one I just pulled together; and it turned into a more or less love story. This isn't my best work either. (YxW)
Please comment and thanks to the people who have commented and kept commenting. Thank you!
Chapter 4- Flashback
"I'll start Ulrich," William said, "She was with me when it first began."
"Alright." Ulrich agreed. Yumi looked longingly at the two boys waiting for the story to begin. Aelita and Odd were bright eyed listening while Jeremy was typing at the computer.
"Well..."

(Flashback)
"Yumi?" "Yumi?!" William said franticly. She had just passed out and she was shaking and trembling like she was having a seizure. Suddenly her eyes bolted open and looked at him in a odd way. William looked at her with longing eyes. She was normal for second and then William's heart dropped as he saw Yumi smile and the symbol that he so much hated now in her eyes.
He felt frozen. She had set him up. He was so shocked he couldn't move. All those words and emotion she showed him were a lie. Then he felt a sharp pain in his stomach as he was sent flying backward into the wall.
The Xanafied Yumi stood up and tried to punch him again but he dodged it this time, rolling under her and racing for the door. He saw Yumi turn around and reach for something in her pocket. With a heavy horror he realized what it was, a knife. Xana was trying to kill him.
He opened the door and rushed out into the hallway. He faced the door and saw Yumi calmly walk about of the room holding the knife in an evil way. Now he knew how Yumi felt.
He flew through the hallway with Yumi chasing him. She was getting closer every second and his eyes never left the sharp metal tip of the knife. His heart was pounding hard and he could hear his own fear, his own thoughts running past him and leaving him in the darkness.
By the time he was outside and rushing for the woods he could almost feel the hot breath of Yumi behind him. He didn't want to stop, and he didn't want to hurt her.
"What are you doing?" His own thoughts seemed to echo. "Stop being a coward, this isn't Yumi; fight her! You wanted to get back at Xana!"
He turned around and stopped running and faced her with hard eyes.
"What do you want with me Xana?!" he cried. Yumi had stopped to stare at him with an evil expression; still clutching the knife.
"What do you think?" she said, staring right into his eyes, "You were a great pawn, and I don't want you on anyone's side but mine. I don't want a strong little boy like you falling into my enemy's hands?"
William's blood turned cold. His eyes were pale and a deep force pulled him back. Yumi was walking towards him with a grin. Suddenly he pulled away and tried to remain strong. Yumi swiped the knife over his head, nearly cutting his pitch black hair. He gritted his teeth and moved out of the way of a few more attacks. They kept backing up, deeper into the forest.
Suddenly a different texture other than the one of grass hit his feet. It was the manhole that leads to the factory. He knew what to do.
"Okay if I can give her the slip I can go down the manhole and get some edge on the chase." His thoughts said.
He suddenly ran around the trees watching closely for Xana to follow him. His heart was pounding hard but he tried to stay strong and keep himself focused. Sure enough she followed him around the trees. William ran around some trees, trying to get away from Yumi. His heart was still locked on to the spot where the manhole laid.
He peaked behind a tree. Yumi was looking the other way and couldn't find him. He silently ran to where the manhole was and opened the lid as softly as possible. He still didn't hear the footsteps of Yumi so he quietly slipped in a closed the lid.
As soon as he dropped down and started running, he felt pounding above him; the running of Yumi.
He ran as fast as he could and didn't look back. He knew Yumi was chasing him but for he was a fast runner and out run her. She couldn't catch up to him. She quickly made process to the factory ladder. And climbed like an ape. Not until he saw the sun he had realized how twisted his lungs and couldn't breathe. He slowed down and he could hear the manhole open again behind him. He just kept running towards the factory.

Ulrich, Odd, Jeremy and Aelita had finished lunch awhile ago and had tried to reach William and Yumi. They must have had their phones off because the voicemail came up right away. They couldn't find them anywhere. They had checked their rooms and found nothing except William's room a bit unarranged.
"Where do you think they are Einstein?" Odd asked. They were running for the factory to look for them.
"Yeah Jeremy, you think this is Xana's doing? Do you think William kidnapped Yumi?" Ulrich added.
"Yes, William's room was kinda messy..." Odd added.
"Who says it always isn't though." Ulrich commented.
"All logical guesses. I would guess William is some how controlled by Xana and kidnapped Yumi but I don't see a reason for it. Xana usually has a reason."
"Usually..." Odd said sarcastically. Aelita gave him a hard look.
"Either way I'm guessing we'll find something at the factory so speed it up guys!" Jeremy said. Jeremy pushed hard and ran past the group. Odd, Aelita and Ulrich rolled their eyes and speeding up with ease. Jeremy struggled to keep up and everyone else left him in the dust.

William swung a metal pole he got from a pipe in the factory towards the knife Yumi was holding to try to knock it out of her hand. No use. A metal clashing sound rang in William's ears as he dodged another swipe. He couldn't keep this up much longer.
William retreated to the door of the elevator and closed it, leaving Yumi outside. He felt better, wiping some sweat of his forehead but a loud thump on the top of the elevator made his heart jump. And he could hear Yumi trying to latch the elevator's door on the roof.
Suddenly the door of the elevator opened and William blasted into the lab looking for a way to escape.
The thud made his heart jumped as Yumi appeared in the elevator. She turned around; smiling. So William avoided Yumi for as long as he could. He was tried and could barely move to dodge her punches. And at last hard wing of her arm caught his stomach straight on. Clutching his stomach he fell to the floor in pain.
He watched fearfully as Yumi kneeled on his legs making in impossible to move. She clutched the knife in her hand and William could see every aspect of the Xana symbol in her eye that seemed to be blazing in victory. William could only close his eyes and brace for impact.
A few seconds had gone by and nothing had happened. He felt motion but she didn't kill him, he was alive. He opened his eyes opened to see Yumi clutching in head in pain and for a second he didn't see a Xana symbol but in came back. And she raised the knife once again.
Suddenly weight flew off of his feet as Yumi went flying sideways against the wall. He turned to see Ulrich and Jeremy standing in the doorway. He tried to say something but his lungs were tied up.
Surprisingly Ulrich came rushing to his side and Jeremy stepped in front of the Xanafied Yumi. His body was limp but Ulrich had him sit up. He didn't really know what was going on, but he knew Jeremy and Yumi were battling it out.
Time was passing but his energy seemed drained. And now Odd and Aelita appeared in the room.
Finally he got a look up and he saw a terrifying sight. Yumi was holding Jeremy up; his knife was raised to his neck. Odd was in the corner clutching his stomach and Ulrich was running to help Jeremy while Aelita stayed with him.
Yumi swung the knife but it stopped short. The same thing happened as before. She dropped Jeremy making a great thud and held her head like it someone had shot her.
"Get her down while you can!" Jeremy whispered. William could see that se has cut him up a bit, but not too much.
Ulrich had grabbed a chain...William didn't know here he got it, he must of found it and pushed Yumi into Jeremy chair. She was still in pain as it looked as Ulrich chained her to the chair and knotted the chain; he didn't even know that was possible.
Then Yumi just stopped al together. It was like she was asleep. For once there was peace in the room.

"So that's seriously what happened?" Yumi asked, eyes open and full of sadness.
"Yeah." Ulrich answered.
"It's all my fault...I'm sorry I didn't get out of that tower when we were getting William back.
"It's not totally your fault." Aelita said, trying to sound cheerful. Yumi just looked away.
"Okay then, so how do we fix this mess?" Odd asked Jeremy.
"Well first of all here's the bad news." Jeremy started; the gang's eyes stared at him.
"Yumi has in her the same Xana Spirit that William once had, and it didn't take over her fully yet. But it will, and it can anytime. But before that can happen we have to get rid of it. But here's the thing, I don't know how to. The program was a one time thing and it's almost impossible to make another one." Jeremy said gravely.
"So what are we going to do?!" Yumi said, almost getting mad.
"I don't know."
Well I'm done with this chapter. A bit longer than the other chapters too; and sorry for the wait. Comments are accepted!
