Wow three and a half years no write..... gee... my bad..... did ya miss me? Just to remind you this was written before second season. And I do not own Code: LYOKO. But this story about Code: LYOKO I do own. Thanks to my fabulous beta reader RenaYumi.

.:Previously in last chapter:.

The two girls ran outside.

"Where to go... Where to go..." Yumi said as she started to become panicky. Aelita then pointed to the sewer door.

"In the Sewer! We'll go to the factory and hide there." Aelita explained.

"Ok good idea lets go." And with that the two girls ran into the sewers. They went down the steps as fast as they could and saw a bike there. "Who in the world would keep a bike down here!" Yumi asked. Well more like shouted.

"Who cares let's go!" Aelita said as she got on the pegs and Yumi got on the bike and started to ride. They could hear Dan and John behind them.

"THEY STOLE MY BIKE!" Was the last thing they heard from John as they rode faster and faster. Though the boys were running trying to keep up with the girls. When they got to the end of their tunnel They jumped off the bike went up the latter and into the factory.

"Ok just down the ropes Aelita!" Yumi said. But as the two girls jumped on to the ropes, the ropes fell down and Yumi and Aelita went with them. They just laid there motionless on the cold hard cement.

.: End Previously:.

Dan and John approach the factory and looked down. "I Knew they wouldn't look to see the stability of the ropes. Fighting monsters on LYOKO and in the real world, fending off every horrible plague XANA has sent them, and what get's them? An untied rope." Dan gleamed their eyes glowed with the cursed sign as they flew down to the girls. Yumi, though unconscious, was lashing out with pain while the scrap metal lying around glowed pink flying across the room. John slowly approaches Yumi.

"I'm guessing you're having some unpleasant dreams now. Guess you should have looked before you leaped." He sneered as he careful picked up his prize. Dan got down on one knee next to Aelita, lightly rubbing her cheek with the back of his hand. After a minute of just staring at his princess he slowly picked her up bridle style and carried her away into the factory. John carried Yumi in the opposite direction.

Ulrich was pacing the floor while Jeramie's fingers flew across the keyboard. Odd was doing the best he could to stay calm. After all these were his best-sister-like-friends. "Come on Jeramie! Can't you type any faster?!" Ulrich snapped with his lack of patience. Jeramie, while still typing, looked up from his computer towards Ulrich.

"I know what's at stake here, Ulrich. I can only move so fast. In case you haven't notice, they took Aelita along with Yumi." Jeramie harshly responded. Odd on the other hand decided to step in before this argument escalades.

"You two have got to stop this now. If we argue then they both won't be found. Believe it or not you two aren't the only ones who care about them. They're like my sisters!" The purple haired boy jumped in to settle it. Before either could speak, the computer pinged, and a location popped up on the screen. "Does that mean the computer found them?"

"Yes, Odd. They are in the factory. Which means..." Jeramie started but was interrupted by Ulrich.

"This is all about XANA." Ulrich finished catching on to what was happening. Odd slapped his own head with his hand.

"How could we honestly not see that coming? It's exactly something he would do." He moaned with frustration that he over looked the obvious. Not caring about the answer in anyway, both Ulrich and Jeramie got up to run to the factory being followed by Odd. In no time the three made it through the forest to the ever so popular man-hole. There they took the tunnels to the factory. Odd was about to jump for the remaining rope when he was suddenly pulled back by Ulrich. "Hey what gives? Don't you want to find them before Dan and John does anything to them?"

"My guess is that they already have. Look." Jeramie simply stated as he pointed to the level under him. There on the floor were two ropes. "They must have escaped for a minute and tried to hide out here. Only to find that the ropes have been untied."

"It must have been their back up plan for us three. I mean there are three ropes and if XANA knew we thought it was an attack, he knew this was the first place we would come to." Ulrich spoke up putting the pieces together.

"So if Yumi and Aelita fell un-expectantly onto cold hard cement, most likely being knocked unconscious, then where are they now?" Odd asked looking around for any sign of his friends.

"Ugh." Aelita moaned as she slowly moved around a bit. "I told you rope couldn't save us Yumi," the pink haired girl tried to joke as she started to open her eyes. She saw a cloudy figure of blue as her sight was adjusting. "Jeramie? Is that you?"

"Nope. It's someone better Angel." Replied an all-so-familiar voice that has haunted Aelita. Aelita gasped in shock and made a quick jump backwards only to feel a throbbing sharp pain in her stomach. Dan smiled. "It seems you have two maybe three cracked ribs, and judging by the swollen left ankle, it would also seem like you have a sprained ankle. That should ruin any escape plan you may come up with." Not wanting to believe anything that was going on, Aelita looked around in hopes to find Yumi.

"Looking for someone Angel?" Dan smirked and he slowly approached the scared princess.

"YUMI!!!!!!" Aelita screamed out as she tried to squirm away from the approaching captor.

"Yell all you want Angel. It won't help. Not only is she in another part of this fine factory, but she was knocked out cold from the little fall you guys had." Dan teased as he watched in amusement at Aelita squirming.

A small echo of her name made Yumi's eyes flutter a bit as consciousness started to enter her sore body. Pain throughout her head and arm were almost unbearable. 'What was the last thing that had happened?' Yumi struggled to remember as she felt a hand rub across her cheek. Her eyes then opened slowly.

"Ulrich is that you? I think I hit my head." Yumi said rather slowly. Words were becoming harder to say with the continuous headaches.

"Ulrich? Now I'm just insulted. Giving me a black eye and escaping me is one thing, but comparing me to that worthless samurai? That's just mean." Were the words that made her remember everything. The capture, the escape, the tunnel, and the…fall. So that's where the pain came from.

"John…." Yumi growled as she slowly tried to move. Pain shot up through her right arm and her head weighed a ton. 'I've been captured by a crazy guy and what does fate give me? A badly sprained, possibly broken, arm and a headache the size of Japan.' Yumi thought as she tried to move again. She managed to sit up and started to look around for any sign of her pink haired friend but saw nothing. "Where is Aelita?! What have you done to her?!" The angry Japanese girl demanded.

"Ah… The cuteness of your anger. Always makes my day cutie." John teased. Yumi on the other hand lost all patience she had long ago.

"You tell me where she is right now or I will….." Yumi started to threaten only to be interrupted.

"Or you'll what? Pass out from the pain you're in? Say mean things to me? Oh well it does not matter. You're friend is with mine, simple as that." John interrupted and bragged about how useless Yumi is in this situation. Yumi only glared.

"If he hurts her I swear….." Once again Yumi was rudely interrupted.

"Really my dear, you aren't in any position to be making threats or demands. I'm pretty sure I can run faster than you can crawl." Taunted the gothic boy, who then lifted Yumi's head up, looking directly into her eyes. There was something about them that didn't seem right. Then it had dawn on her like a ton of bricks. Xana. Why didn't she see it before?

"Xana." Stated the raven haired girl. John just sneered.

"Oh is my symbol showing again? I thought I had control over that by now."

xXx

"Yumi!!!" Voice of Aelita had echoed throughout the entire factory.

"That's Aelita!" Odd dumbly stated. "What direction did it come from?"

"Over there! From the left part of the factory!" Jeramie practically yelled as he pointed to the left.

"Let's hurry! She sounded like there was trouble." Ulrich ordered as he ran and the others ran. He knew that if Aelita had yelled Yumi's name it could mean that either Yumi or Aelita were in way over their heads. If John hurts one hair on Yumi's beautiful head, John would not come out of this battle alive.

xXx

"Why are you doing this to us? You could have had any girl you want at Kadic." Aelita asked hoping to buy enough time to come up with a plan.

"You're more fun and it would be easier to take over the world with you out of the way, my little Angel." Dan smiled as the infamous Xana symbols filled his eyes.

"Xana, I should have known. Well it doesn't matter. We'll stop you! We always do!" Aelita gloated. Good always overcomes evil.

"We? My dear look around. There is no one here but us and if memory has served me right, you alone had never taken me down." Dan grinned as he looked at the look of helplessness on Aelita's face. "Aw no need to be depressed Angel. How about a little kiss to make it all better?" The look of fear and disgust appeared on Aelita's face as Dan approached her. If anyone is out there, now would be a great time to help. The princess's prayer was answered.

"Judging by that look on her face I would say that she just wants to be left alone. But then again I'm sure you're use to that look by now, Dan. Or should I say Xana." Jeramie's voice echoed throughout the room. Dan turned around to see that Jeramie, Odd, and Ulrich were standing there ready to fight.

"Step away from the Princess." Odd ordered.

"And tell me where Yumi is." Ulrich Demanded.
