Chapter 7: Jeremie or Odd?
"Ulrich. Ulrich, wake up. I know its summer, but you need to wake up," Aunt Kasha said softly. Ulrich just mumbled something inaudible. "No, Ulrich! Now!" She flipped him over and rolled him off the bed. "Get up!"
"A little feisty in the morning, aren't we?" Odd joked as he got out of bed not wanting her to wake him up too.
"Odd, stop joking around, get your pants on! We have a big day ahead." She turned bake around to see Ulrich still lying on the floor. "Boy, he is always out like a light." She took a deep breath and picked him up by the top of his shirt and slapped him across the face. "Ulrich!"
"What was that for?" Ulrich asked rubbing his cheek.
"Get up, Ulrich. The others have been up for an hour already!" She was pissed. "Ulrich! Get dressed. Odd, you too!"
"Alright, already. You don't have to yell at us," Ulrich said drowsily. "We can hear you loud and clear."
"You didn't a few seconds ago, when I asked you to wake up for the hundredth time. Now if you two make me late, I fry you. Got it!?" Aunt Kasha shouted.
"Whatever. It's not my fault he sleeps with ear plugs in," Odd said trying to get himself out of trouble.
"Yeah it is, Odd. If you didn't snore so loudly, I wouldn't need ear plugs!" Ulrich yelled.
"I'm not that loud!"
"Yes you are. If you could hear yourself!"
"Both of you shut up! We are going to be late! Now pull on your pants and let's go, before Jeremie gets worried!" Aunt Kasha grabbed them both a t-shirt out of her purse while they got dressed.
"What are you gonna do with that?" Odd asked after he was finished. "That doesn't look like something you'd wear."
"That's because I'm not. You are." She walked out of the room. "Are you two coming!?" She yelled back. Then both came running out behind her.
"Ok, where the heck are we going?" Ulrich asked. "You said we were going to meet Jeremie. His room is that way."
"I know. We are going to the future. Ulrich, today's the day. I know you aren't going to help me, but maybe you can talk some sense into yourself and at least try," She said. She was mad and started to run down the corridor. "Come on!"

"Jeremie? Where are they?" Yumi asked. "They can't take this long to get here."
"Odd can take an hour, just to get out of bed," Jeremie said.
"True."
"Yumi, I know this is strange and getting stranger, but do you know what happened that we are going to try and fix?" Aelita asked, worried.
"No, but I have an idea." They stood there for a few more minutes until Aunt Kasha came around the corner of the school. Ulrich and Odd were trailing behind her, trying to keep up.
"Ok, so here is the plan. Yumi, Ulrich, and I are going to go to the future to help me fix something that went wrong. Jeremie, I am going to leave behind a keychain. This keychain," Aunt Kasha said handing it to him, "will be our portal to and from the future. I also have one. It is a portal from the one who holds it to the one who holds its brother. If anything goes wrong it will glow. Throw it on the ground. It will get bigger and bigger and become the portal. Then, most likely, Ulrich and Yumi will be back here. Odd, you need to protect Aelita."
"Why would I need to protect Aelita?" Odd asked.
"Because, when anyone goes through this portal that is not from the future, the portal sends out demons. Don't ask me why, but in the future Xana put viruses almost everywhere. Now when we go through the portal, you need to be ready to protect Aelita. They will go strait after her."
"Why? What has happened in the future, Yumi?" Aelita asked.
"The future is a vile land of darkness," Aunt Kasha started to say. "Xana has captured almost everyone and put them to work. He needs to capture Aelita. You are the only person he really wants. He is determined to kill everyone who knows about Lyoko. I am lucky to have even gotten here. For all I know, everyone could be dead right now. I am so stupid.
"Protect Aelita at all costs. Odd, if Xana gets his hands on Aelita, he will destroy everything in the future. Everything I know to be home could be destroyed. I have to hope that he hasn't found Aelita. I'm counting on all of you. Xana can not win this battle. I can not lose. We have suffered too much for this to happen."
"When did this happen in the future?" Yumi asked. "I mean, in all of your stories you never mentioned having Xana control the place."
"That is because, this happened when Kasha was born." Aunt Kasha stood there starting to cry. "I told you the happy memories I have. After Kasha was born, Xana reigned over everything. Jeremie and Aelita ran and hid. Odd went to fight. All I had left was my little happy family to hold onto. Kasha was growing up in a land of terror and fighting. Soon Xana found Odd and Jeremie. He took them away. I was scared. I didn't know what to do. I just ran away from the trouble. I took Kasha to Japan, where she could be safe. She lived there with me and my parents. That is when I remembered that we had left Ulrich back in France. We have only been living in Japan for a couple of weeks. I can't stand it anymore. I had to go back. So, I went and found Ulrich, dead in the debris. I need to save France. You are going to help me. I need too make sure that Xana will never be the ruler.
"I'm sorry," Aunt Kasha said. She was still crying softly. She wiped her eyes then started to speak again. "Something is going wrong. Xana is taking over. He wants Aelita. It all started when my daughter was born. It's my fault. I'm the one who had Kasha. I'm the one who wanted to be in this group. I'm the one who messed everything up. I'm the one who left Ulrich behind. This is all my fault, and I am going to fix this. I just need a little help from some old friends.
"Jeremie, I'm leaving. When Yumi and Ulrich come back, everything will be ok. I can only hope." Aunt Kasha blinked back tears and threw the keychain onto the ground.
"Be safe. I want to here all about your story when you get home," Aelita said.
"Be ready for the worst to come out of this portal when we have gone through it. I'll miss you all," Aunt Kasha said. Then the three stepped into the portal and then disappeared. The keychain did to.
Out of thin air two crabs appeared and so did about a dozen kankrelats.
"Oh, boy," Odd said. Then charged and one of them.
"Run, Aelita!" Jeremie yelled to her.
"No. I'm through running!" She said then charged after Odd. Jeremie ran away.
They both fought as hard as they could. The monsters, somehow, once they were defeated just popped back into thin air. Kankrelat after kankrelat were defeated. After about an hour of fighting, only one crab was left. Odd had a huge cut down his leg that was bleeding plus many small cuts on his arms, and Aelita's right arm was broken plus her knees were scuffed up.
"I'll take the last one!" Odd shouted. Avoiding the lasers, he cut one of the legs off of it, and he jumped up onto the crab.
"Odd, you need to see a doctor!" Aelita yelled. She jumped out of the way of one of the lasers. She held her right arm.
"No! I'll go when I'm done kicking his butt," Odd shouted then stuck a tree branch in the eye symbol on top.
"Odd!"
"Ok, we can go now," Odd said jumping off the crab as it disappeared into thin air.
"When we get to the hospital, we tell them that we fell from a window in our dorm. Ok?" Aelita asked.
"Sure. Are you ok, Aelita?"
"I'll be fine. I just broke my arm. How are you doing?" Aelita asked looking at the cut that was bleeding. "You are losing quiet a lot of blood."
"I'll be fine. Your knees are bleeding too," he said pointing at her knees.
"Not as much. We really need to get to a doctor. You can walk on that leg for long," Aelita said.
"The hospital is only a few miles away, we can make it," Odd said. He smiled.
"I can't believe Jeremie left! The nerve of that guy! It makes me sick!" Aelita said changing the subject.
"I know. He just left us there. Sometimes he can be such a wuss," Odd said. "He never goes into Lyoko either. Baby."
"Sometimes I wish Jeremie would toughen up. He just thinks about himself or saving me. I think its flattering and all, but he's like 'Aelita watch out' or 'Hurry up guys, Aelita's in trouble'. It makes me sick. Whenever Yumi is dangling over the Digital Sea all he says is, 'Aelita hurry get to the tower'. Why doesn't he care about anyone else," Aelita said exasperatedly.
"I know! I always have to come and save you because he is too scared to save his own girl. I mean, if he really loves you so much he should save you. It's not that I don't like saving you, but he expects us to save you when he is the one who likes you. Sorry."
"You don't have to be sorry," Aelita said after a while. "Odd, I've been thinking about what you have said and I don't think he deserves to have me as his girlfriend if he can't even stay to fight to save me."
"Ok, does that mean that you're dumping him?" Odd asked confused.
"Yes. I'm not his girl if he can't work for me," Aelita said.
"Then, will you go out with me?" Odd asked.
"Sure."
"I know I'm a comedian and all, but. Wait, did you say yes?" Odd asked turning to look at Aelita.
"Yes, I did."
"Sweet. I've liked you for a long time, but Jeremie was in the way so I never asked you out."
"Me too. I've liked you, but Jeremie brought me out of the computer and he always thought I would go out with him. So, I did," Aelita admitted.
"You liked me too?"
"Yeah, that's why I told you not to just assume that I was going out with Jeremie. Maybe I wasn't."
"You said you were."
"I know, I'm just messing with you," Aelita said.
"Well, the hospital is in a quarter of a mile," Odd said looking at the road sign. "I just hope Yumi and Ulrich are ok."
"They'll be fine. I know it."
