Chapter 7: the karaoke tournament part 3 the finale
I don't own Code Lyoko or any of the songs played in this story and the chapter starts off with a timeskip to the finals
[May's P.O.V.]
Later during the finals of the tournament
"And now the moment you've all been waiting for the finals of the tournament" Jim shouted as firework noises came out of the speakers "and now we have those who are going to sing, Sissi Delmas, and Monica West will be singing to see who is better and who is the one who was wrong the entire time" everyone cheered as they both stepped up.
The two stepped forward and Sissi began to tick Monica off again "good luck trying to beat me it's hopeless trying though I mean everyone knows the most beautiful girl is going to win, not a tramp" "Oh no" Geo said "she shouldn't have done that" Sissi begins to sing about Monica's reputation.
The cycle repeated
As explosions broke the sky
All that I needed
Was the one thing I couldn't find
And you were at the turn
Waiting to let me know
You're building it up
To break it back down
You're building it up
To burn it to the ground
You can't wait to burn it to the ground
The colors conflicted
As the flames, climbed into the clouds
He wanted to fix this
But couldn't stop from tearing it down
And you were there at the turn
Caught in the burning glow
And he was there as the turn
Waiting to let you now
You're building it up
To break it back down
You're building it up
To burn it to the ground
You can't wait to burn it to the ground
You told him yes
You held her high
And he believed when you told that lie
He played soldier you played king
But before she could say the next words that came next Monica intervened with her song
You shout it loud, but I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down but I get up
I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
Cut me down but it's you who have further to fall
Ghost-to-own and haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud not saying much
I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium
Stone hard, machine guns
Firing at the ones who run
Stone hard, though as bullet proof glass
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium
Monica ended her song and took a breath as everyone started to cheer loudly. "Okay and now judges show your score for Sissi Delmas" Jim said running in-between Monica and Sissi and raising Sissi's hand. Principal Delmas raised a 8, then Mrs. Hertz raised a 5, and finally, the new music teacher, Mr. Robinson raised a 3. Sissi stood shocked about how she was ranked "what! I deserve a 10" she said angry. "and now for Monica West" he said raising her arm as Mr. Delmas raised a 10, then Mrs. Hertz raised a 10, and everyone held their breath as Mr. Robinson pulled out a… 10. Everyone began to clap and cheer as a high pitched screech began to erupt from the speakers. Geo fell onto his knees clenching his ears, Monica screamed clutching her ears and falling onto her knees, and Sissi's cronies Nikolas and Herve started to shiver and their eyes gained a weird symbol shape in them. They shoved everyone out of the way as the high pitched screech stopped and they came after me. "RUN" Geo shouted as they chased after us.
[Geo's P.O.V.]
We ran from the two as we saw Ulrich running into the forest with Sissi behind him as Herve followed them. I grabbed May's hand and we ran after them Nikolas on our tail. Wait this seems very familiar, I thought to myself as we ran to the house from my dream… wait the house from my dream?! "STOP" I shouted as we came to the gate. "What's the matter Geo" May asked me gasping for breath. " I don't think we should go in there something bad will happen if we do" I said frantically "Well we don't have time to be superstitious" Ulrich said as May grabbed my hand and we ran upstairs. Immediately before I knew what was happening (again) the asthma attack started.
I fell onto the floor and gasping for breath I said "inhaler. Pocket. can't breathe" I said. May reached into my pocket and put my inhaler to my mouth as Ulrich and Sissi burst through the door. "What's going-..?" "Asthma. Attack" I said in-between pants. I breathed in as May was shoved aside by Herve and Nikolas. They were about to electrocute me when… BAM they fell to the ground as Aelita and Odd stood above them with crowbars and they dragged me and May up as they woke up Ulrich and Sissi. "Ulrich stay here and make sure they don't get out of the Hermitage" Odd said as were dragged along through a door leading into the sewers into the factory by them. We arrived at the supercomputer as Jeremy sat at the computer.
"Xana's launched an attack, hurry up and get down there" Jeremy said. Aelita put May next to the elevator and Odd put me next to the scanner as they were put into scanners. "Wait, what the heck is a Xana?" I asked confused "We'll explain later, right now we have to go" Odd said as he and Aelita walked into the scanners. "Transfer Odd, Transfer Aelita, Scanner Odd, Scanner Aelita, Virtualization!" I put May in the other scanner and stepped into mine as we were virtualized. "Transfer Geo, Transfer May, Scanner Geo, Scanner May, Virtualization!" Wait, May's unconscious so how is she going to land? I thought. As we were about to fall, I saw May with her head down and about to fall and hurt herself. "Paradoxal, Time!" I called out as I was falling and landed softly caught May as the Time Slow Down ended. I looked around and saw we were in a desert and saw Odd and an elf waving to me and I ran over to them.
"Um why are you carrying May" Odd asked. "She's unconscious what do you expect" I snapped. I felt May move and looked down to see her waking up and set her on the ground. Her eyes fluttered open "What… What's going on" she asked. "We're in Lyoko because of an attack by some dude named Xana, which brings me back to my earlier question, what the heck is a Xana" I said. "It's a renegade computer virus that we've been fighting for at least 3 years now" Odd replied. "Now is not the time for chitchat guys you got some ninjas coming your way" Jeremy said.
"Wait what about the other monsters like those potato sack things" I asked. "Well apparently Xana only had enough power to generate those monsters outside the Cortex this one time to get to you guys" the elf said. The confused look on my face was apparent as I asked "who are you exactly". Now it was her turn to look confused as she said "Don't you recognize me Geo, it's me Aelita". Oh crap "Sorry I'm new at this remember" I said as I was knocked down by a ninja
[May's P.O.V.]
We were on Lyoko when Geo suddenly got tackled by one of those ninja things and shot it with his right-hand gun. "Well here they come" Geo said and took out his gauntlet and lance. I grabbed my daggers as Aelita and Odd got into a fighting stance. They came at us as we ran into the crowd of ninjas and started to take them down. I couldn't see how the others were doing because I was too busy fighting my own problems. I slashed with my daggers and started to throw them in a tornado like way. Then suddenly out of nowhere two hands reached out and grabbed my daggers and gauntlet. I was shoved next to the others who were on the ground with some weird creature with glowing long tentacle like arms stretched out with its hands on everyone's heads and they looked like they were in a trance.
"What's going on" I heard Monica ask in the background. "Some weird shadow ghost thing with multiple arms is putting Geo and the others in a trance" I said. "Hold on I'm sending Yumi and Monica in" he said "okay, Transfer Yumi, Transfer Monica, Scanner Yumi, Scanner Monica, Virtualization!" he shouted as I saw Monica and a black ninja geisha who I'm guessing was Yumi fell in and was getting ready for battle. But before they could do anything, they were knocked down by two ninjas and dragged over with the rest of us and the others still were not able to move. "Jeremy hurry up I think were next" Monica said. "There I finished the program, May I've just activated new powers for you hurry up and use them" he shouted. I reached out my hand and focused as a ninja turned on the rest and began to devirtualize them. Monica began to move her hands around during the distraction and the earth came together and crushed a couple of ninjas.
Woah how did she do that? Ugh! Focus May! I think to myself. I used my ability to free the others as the creature attacked the other ninjas and Monica flexed her hands as a tornado ripped from one while fire shot from her other and they both toasted and swept away a bunch of ninjas. "Guy's I'm sending the vehicles so hurry up" Jeremy snapped. In front of us was a disc with a handle and a shark-like look on it with a fin on the bottom, a hover board and a one wheeled bike. Odd and Aelita jumped onto the board while Yumi and Monica got on the disc. "Come on May!" I heard as I turned to see Geo waving me over on the bike. I jumped on as we began to go and raced forward as more ninjas came. Yumi then threw a weird fan like projectile that went through the ninja and it returned to her as it exploded. A dark structure began to loom over us. "Aelita hurry!" Jeremy said as Aelita walked through the tower wall. We sat waiting as a sinister voice said You do not belong here, you must leave before the mission becomes too serious to escape! I gasped and looked around and apparently Geo and Monica heard it too because they were looking around.
"Return to the past now!" I heard a voice say as we were suddenly at the dance where Jim was announcing Monica the winner. "What the?" Geo said as we both looked around but the gang looked perfectly fine and unaffected by the returning to the finals. "Don't worry you'll get used to it after a while" William said behind us. After the two finalists walked off the stage Jim announced "Now who wants to try a little bit of last minute singing to end the dance?" Jim said as Geo suddenly raised his hand and dragged me onto the stage. "Geo what are you doing?" "Just trust me on this May" He said before whispering the song in my ear. I smiled and laughed as we set the song up and started to sing.
May: Whoa oh oh oh,
Geo: It's always a good time
May: Whoa oh oh oh,
Geo: It's always a good time
Geo: Woke up on the right side of the bed
What's up with this Prince song inside my head
Hands up if you're down to get down tonight
'cause it's always a good time
Geo: Slept in all my clothes like I didn't care
Hopped into a cab, take me anywhere
I'm in if you're down to get down tonight
I noticed Geo spotted a scowling Allyson and smiled like about how unhappy she was about the song
May: Good morning and good night
I wake up at twilight
Both: It's gonna be alright
We don't even have to try
It's always a good time
May: whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Geo: It's always a good time
May: whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Both: We don't even have to try it's always a good time

Checked out of my room hit the ATM
Let's hang out if you're down to get down tonight
'Cause it's always a good time
Geo: Good morning and good night
May: I wake up at twilight
Both: It's gonna be alright we don't even have to try
It's always a good time
May: whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Geo: It's always a good time
May: whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Both: We don't even have to try it's always a good time
May: whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Geo: It's always a good time
May: whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Both: We don't even have to try it's always a good time
Geo: Doesn't matter when
It's always a good time then
May: Doesn't matter where
It's always a good time there.
Geo: Doesn't matter when
It's always a good time then
Audience: it's always a good time
May: whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Geo: It's always a good time
May: whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
