Ch: 3 Explanations and a Mysterious new Character

I got up from my bed and went over to Jeremy's room. I expected to him to be asleep but I saw that he was on his computer with Aelita watching him. "It's 5 in the morning Jeremy." I said. He jumped about a foot while sitting down.

He turned his chair and saw me. "Oh it's you." He mumbled, "I'm just playing a video game." "Do you mean that video game that you sent me to?" I asked, "So you can also play it at school?" Aelita was startled and asked me, "Wait! How do you know about Lyoko?" "You still haven't figured it out have you?" I said as Aelita's eyes were widening, "I was the girl that went to the factory with you."

Her jaw literally dropped. She stared in disbelief and looked at me and then back at Jeremy. "B-b-bu-but… th-tha-that's not possible right?" She stammered, "N-n-no way. There is no logical explanation for a boy turning into a g-g-gi-girl! Right, Jeremy?"

She looked at him with hope that he would agree with her. Jeremy, however just stood up with a cup and poured its contents on me. Aelita looked at me and she fainted on the spot. Since I'm a little slow about what is going on. It took me a couple of seconds to realize what Jeremy did. I had turned into a girl in front of Aelita. "Jeremy!" I said in a girlish tone. I whacked him around until I noticed that I was acting like a girl.

"Just hurry up and change me back smart-a$$." Jeremy just kept holding back his laughter as he walked out the door. I grabbed Aelita's shoe and as Jeremy just started to burst with laughter, I hit him directly in the back of the head. I saw him stumble, steady himself, then rub his head and looked back at me with an unamused look.

Pouting, he disappeared around the corner and reappeared a couple of minutes later with a cup of coffee for me to use. I laughed at him when he tripped on Aelita's lonely shoe which was still in the middle of the hallway. The coffee spilled directly on my face and slowly dripped onto the rest of my body.

However the coffee was still hot. "ARGHHH!" I yelled, "MY EYES! THEY BURN!" I squirmed and probably did the Worm up and down the hallway. What amazed me about this is that no one got up. Only Jim came to tell me to be quiet. I got up and went back to my room and fell asleep.

During breakfast Odd whispered to me, "Hey, did Aelita find out?" I looked at him and nodded as if it were nothing. He gasped and whispered to me again, "Aelita might make tests on you to find out what your real gender is." Exactly at that moment, it was as if the god of bad timings had descended upon us. Aelita sat down in front of us and just kept her head down. "Ano? Are you okay Aelita?" She looked up at me and she looked pissed at me. She definitely remembers I thought.

"I just didn't have a good night's sleep that's all." She said while pouting. "Eh…" was the only word to come out of my mouth at that moment. "EHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I yelled and the whole cafeteria looked at me with surprise. I quieted down long enough for everyone to stop looking at me.

Then I whispered to Aelita, "Then you don't remember my secret?" Aelita tilted her head to the side and said, "What secret?" I slammed my head against the table and thought You've *Ouch* got to *Ouch* be *Ouch* kidding *Ouch* ME! *Ow!* I felt someone slam me on to the table on the last drop.

I looked behind and saw Sissy smirking and Herb and Nicholas standing beside her like bodyguards, but holding their laughter. "Alright! That's it!" I said with extreme fury, "I would like to tell you something, you dog. You better watch your back from now on, cause if you don't there will be flying shoes in the hallway." Sissy was confused at my threat however. "Flying shoes? What?" she said with that clueless expression she always has.

I suddenly thought of an idea that would piss Sissy off entirely. "Hey Sissy." I said, "I can make my friend take Ulrich away from you in a snap of finger. So watch your back and your mouth." Sissy's smirk disappeared from her face. She showed a pissed off expression and started to walk away. Before she walked out of the cafeteria door however she looked back at me and stuck out her tongue.

I felt victorious that is until Ulrich grabbed me by the collar and said angrily, "Why did you have to bring me into your fight with her?" he dropped my collar and I said, "Don't worry Ulrich. It was just a blank threat. Nothing can go wrong." However by the time I was done with 2nd period there were posters everywhere with a description of my female form in every corner saying,

If you find a person with blue hair and green eyes and is 5 ft. Catch her and bring her to me. Whoever brings her to me will have all of their grades raised to an A. –Sissy Delmas.

"Oh sh*t." I said as I finished reading it. "It seems Sissy thought you were really threating her." Ulrich's voice said. "Hey, he didn't know cut him some slack." Odd said while smiling, "and to think Sissy would go through so much trouble for you, Ulrich dear." I cracked up while Ulrich, unimpressed at Odd's joke, just walked off and into the school grounds. I followed Odd to Miss Hertz's class to finish up the day's lessons. Of course Odd failed the surprise quiz that the teacher gave out.

Bummed and tired me and Odd slowly made our way to Jeremy's room so they can feed me more info about Lyoko. Just as I entered the room Yumi spilled some hot chocolate on me by accident. She looked at me and asked, "Who are you?" I stared at her in shock. Crap. I thought Yumi doesn't know anything about my female form yet. "I… uh… am… err…" I suddenly remembered my friend's name and exclaimed, "Caty! Caty Fane! I was … um…going to… uh… see what was going on?" Yumi stared at me suspiciously for a while.

After what seemed like 3 hours, she finally let me in. Jeremy saw me and motioned Yumi to leave. Still suspicious of me, she slowly walked out of the room as she closed the door and sent a evil glare at me which probably meant 'Touch Ulrich and you die!'. Shivering, I slowly picked up Jeremy's coffee and poured it on me. "Hey Carey," Jeremy began, "How are you able to change into a girl and back into a boy?" "I wished for it when I found a genie." I said plainly.

Jeremy just stared at me in disbelief. I looked over at Ulrich and Odd. Their eyes were as wide as eggs. "Guys," I looked at them wearing an expression that said 'Idiots', "I was kidding." Everyone seemed to loosen up after I confirmed it was a joke.

"The real reason" I began with a serious tone, "Is because my mom's egg was dysfunctional and had more than 1 X chromosomes. My dad's sperm was also dysfunctional it had more than 1 Y chromosomes. In the end, my genetic DNA is XXXYYY." Jeremy raised his hand. "This isn't a class lecture Jeremy." I said blankly. "That still doesn't explain how you can change from a girl to a boy." he said as he lowered his hand.

"Well when my parents found out about my genetics, they tried changing it before I was born." I told him, "The needle, however, was a new type of needle and was still being tested. Apparently there were no more needles in the hospital so they just took the experimental one and injected it into me. This caused the extra X and Y chromosomes to mix together and form a "Z" chromosome. Sweet stuff, like hot chocolate, reacted with the girl part of it and bitter stuff, like coffee, reacted to the boy part." "Wouldn't that mean your genetic code is XYZ?" Jeremy said with curiosity. "Yea." I said simply, "I guess it does." Jeremy's jaw dropped on the floor. Odd's eyes popped out of his head. Ulrich's hair stood up as if it were aroused.

"What?" I said. Jeremy fainted, Odd ran back to his room and cuddled with Kiwi. Ulrich, however, looked like he had turned into stone. I looked back and saw the sun was setting. Mhmm I thought I think I ought to go to go to sleep now. I slowly walked out of Jeremy's room and walked into mine. I turned around and caught a glimpse of Jim walking down the corridor. I locked my door and dropped on my bed. Today was a bit too long I thought Hopefully tomorrow will be more fun. I then curled up on my sheets and fell asleep.

"Have the preparations been set yet General?" asked a blob. "No need to worry master." said the man in a WWII military suit, "Everything will be going according to plan tomorrow." "What about that new warrior those brats have?" asked the blob again, "Have you taken her into consideration?" "Indeed I have sir." said the man, "We will do the same thing we did to that Yumi girl." "I have faith in you, Anox." said the blob, "Don't fail me." "I will not," said General Anox, "Master XANA.
