As Odd and Ulrich raced through the sewers on their skate boards, Sissi wasn't far behind them; but they still couldn't see her.
When they finally reached the factory, Siss stayed behind in the sewer just far enough so she could see what they were doing, but not be seen.
"Odd," Ulrich asked as they waited for the elevator to come up, "Why do you like Maya so much?"
"What do ya mean?" he asked.
Ulrich shrugged as they entered the elevator, "She isn't like the other girls you've dated. Didn't you notice that?"
"What are you talking about?"
Ulrich laughed, "Oh Odd, what are we gonna do with you?"
Odd gave Ulrich a weird look as the elevator took them down to the supercomputer room.
"Took you guys long enough," Yumi said as the two boys walked in.
"Sorry," Ulrich grinned, "Odd was being a pain."
Odd's mouth formed an o from shock, "Me? You were the one-"
"STOP!" Jeremy shouted. They all turned to him shocked. No one noticed the elevator going back up again.
Aelita's face popped up on the screen, "What's going on?"
Jeremy sighed and quickly formed a smile on his face, "We have great news Aelita."
"I hope it involves telling me what is this place!" a voice from the elevator yelled.
They turned to see Sissi coming out the elevator.
"What are you doing here?" Ulrich asked shocked.
"I heard you two in the park. So I followed you."
"How did you two not see here behind you?" Yumi yelled at Ulrich and Odd.
"Well to be totally honest," Ulrich said, "We were kinda distracted."
Yumi raised her eyebrow, making Odd laugh, "Not like that nasty."
"Helllo?" Sissi called to them, "Remember me?"
Jeremy sighed, "I got this," he typed in a code in the computer, "Return to the past now."
~Later~
"So now what?" Yumi asked.
They were now in back by the vending machines, drinking soda.
Jeremy sighed, "Well, we're just gonna have to tell Aelita anything last time. So we'll have to tell her later."
"Or we could go to your room and tell her there." Ulrich said.
Jeremy sighed, "Okay. I'd rather do it in the factory so I could finally sent you there but..." He turned to go the his room, Yumi patting his shoulder.
"Odd you coming?" Ulrich asked.
Odd gave his friend an awkward smile, "Umm, see Maya's right over there. And.."
Ulrich laughed, "Ok good buddy. But Jeremy's gonna either kill you OR Maya cause because of her, you aren't doing your duties as Lyoko Warrior right."
Odd giggled, "You said DUTY!"
Ulrich rolled his eyes, "What the hell are we gonna do with you." And left.
Odd walked up to Maya who was carrying some boxes, "Still moving in I see."
She turned around and a smile instantly came to her face, "Hey Odd. And yes I am. But these are the last of the boxes. So after today, I'll be done." She looked kinda weird.
"Hey you ok?" Odd asked. She looked sorta.. spaced out.
"Oh, uh. It's nothing."
Odd raised his eyebrow, crossed his arms and tapped his foot.
She sighed, "Ok, don't think I'm crazy but... I sorta felt as if I've done this before."
"Done what? Carry boxes? You did that yesterday."
She laughed, "No.. I mean. Ugh you won't get it." She shifted her box in her arms.
"Try me. Just say it."
"Ok. Well, I feel as if I've already done this today. You know wake up TODAY, carry this box TODAY. Everything but talk to you for TODAY. I've sometimes have this feeling of deja vu."
Odd's eyes widened, It's like our return to the past... has no effect on her.
"I know it sounds weird," Maya sighed, "But it's true. It's like sometimes, I feel like I've had a dream about how my day goes, then I just wake up, and it's real."
Odd swallowed, "And this has been happening for how long now?"
Maya thought for a second, "Um about two years."
She shook her head and began speaking more to herself than to Odd, "It's strange. It stopped for a while, I thought it was totally gone. But now it's just came back randomly."
"Does... does it bother you?" Odd asked.
She thought about that for a second, "Sorta. Not really. Honestly, I'm not sure. It's just weird."
"Have you ever told anyone?" Odd asked.
"I told my foster dad. He told I was messing with him. So I just kept it to myself till now."
Is it possible that's she's been scanned before?
"Hopper! Mr. Delmas wants you in his office (If you know what i mean ;) haha jk)," Jim said as he came towards her.
"Jim... did you just call Maya, Hopper?"
Jim rolled his eyes, "Della Robbia, I know you're slow, but I'm pretty sure even you know I call people by there last name."
Odd looked at Maya who nodded, "Maya Hopper." Then Maya and Jim walked away to Mr. Delmas's office.
Odd's mind had a flash back to when Aelita was telling them about her past; Schaeffer's my real last name. Franz was my father's middle name. Hopper was my mother's maiden name.
Could that mean that Aelita and Maya are related?
"No way," Odd thought out loud as he began walking. His foot stepped on something that looked like a photo frame.
"What's this," he picked it up and looked at the picture; his eyes widened even more.
"No. Fricking. Way"
