"Yumi, Aelita, Let's go down to the scanner room and see if he came back," Jeremie said hopefully. "Just remember if he isn't here he might be with Odd and if he doesn't show up I can try the procedure again."

"Don't worry, Yumi, we'll get Ulrich back," said Aelita as they headed down in the elevator. They got to the scanner room and one of the scanners started to smoke and open. Inside of the scanner was something so small you could hardly see it. One hair. Only one, but it was Ulrich's hair. Yumi picked it up and started to cry softly and slowly. Then she turned up to look at Jeremie and Aelita.

"Tonight at the party," Yumi started to say, "Ulrich said he would tell me if he liked me more than a friend or not. When.. I went out and looked for him he wasn't there. I came here and now I know he is gone. Gone, just like that. That was the last time I saw Ulrich. Maybe.. I really did like him.. but it doesn't matter anymore. I won't ever be able to see him again. Never." She stared at the hair thinking when she thought of any idea.

"Jeremie, didn't you say that one strand of hair contains your whole Materialization Code?" Yumi asked. "Would it be possible to materialize Ulrich's hair then devirtualize him back here?"

"I think that could work. I did that once with Aelita," he said. "Put the hair back in the scanner and I'll start the process. If Odd sees him on Lyoko I'll devirtualize him."

"Oh, please, let this work," Yumi said softly under her breath.

"Transfer Ulrich, Scanner Ulrich, Virtualization." Jeremie said. "Look around the area. Do you see Ulrich anywhere?"

"No, but try devirtualizing him anyway," Odd said hopefully. "He could be around here and I just can't see him."

"He's not there! He's dead!" Yumi said.

"Ok, Odd. I'm starting the procedure anyway. Devirtualization Ulrich."

Aelita and Yumi were waiting in the scanner room. The scanner closed and smoked again. When it opened yumi started to cry as Ulrich was at the bottom of the scanner asleep. Aelita was so happy; she climbed the ladder instead of using the elevator, ran into the lab, and started saying it worked. Yumi walked up to the scanner and gave Ulrich a hug.

"Don't scare me like that ever again," she whispered into his ear as she brushed back his golden brown hair, then started to cry. By that time Jeremie had already devirtualized Odd and he came out of the scanner next to the one Ulrich came out of. Jeremie and Aelita came down the elevator into the scanner room and all of them watched as Yumi cried tears of joy onto Ulrich. She was still hugging him. When she finally let go he woke up.

"How did you get me back here?" Ulrich asked. "How did you find out I was in Lyoko? How did you find out I left the party?"

"Yumi," Jeremie said. "If you put two and two together this all adds up to Yumi."

"Why did you… how did you?" Ulrich said in shock as he stood up and got out of the scanner.

"I care about you, Ulrich," Yumi said. "We care about you and I would do anything to get you back."

"But I thought no one cared about me."

"Ulrich, you thought wrong," Yumi said. She came up and gave him a hug. "I can tell you another thing. Never think any of us don't care about you. I have and always will care about you."

"Remember don't let William or your grades or parents for that matter get you down," Jeremie said. "Now I don't know about you but it is two a.m. and I want to get some sleep."

"I agree," Aelita said. She walked back to the school with Jeremie and Odd.

"Yumi, I want to say thanks," Ulrich stated. "I was stupid today. I'm sorry. I hope you can forgive me."

"I all ready did," Yumi said back to him. "We'll I guess I better get home my mom must be worried sick. Good-night."

"Good-night," Ulrich said as he started to walk back to school and his dorm.

"Wait, Yumi, one more thing. I really like you."

"I really like you too." Yumi said back to him.

"I love you," Ulrich whispered in her ear.

"I love you too." Yumi said as she kissed him and then stood up to go.

"Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow in school." Yumi said as she left.

"Yea, see you tomorrow."
