Me: Hey! I hope you're all ready for the next and final chapter of Xana's Apprentice. Now that Barney is stranded in the Sahara Desert, it'll be a lot less annoying around here.

Sharon: You'd better believe it.

Aelita: Who is Barney?

Dartz: Like I said. You don't want to know.

Odd: Lyokofan121z1 does not own Code Lyoko, Xiaolin Showdown, Kingdom Hearts, or any characters therein. He also doesn't own the song True Friend.

Jeremy: He does own all his OCs, their powers, the characters' upgrades, and the story.

Me: Let the chaos reign!

Chapter 10: Goodbye, Ulrich

At the Factory

Ulrich POV

"Whoa." Jeremy and Lisa said in unison.

"What?" Sam asked.

"Dartz just kicked Xana's butt." Lisa said.

"I can hear ever word you're saying." Dartz said. "Can you please just rematerialize me already?"

"Right." Jeremy typed in the materialization code. My cell phone started ringing. I looked at the caller ID. It was my dad.

"I'll be right back. I've gotta take this." I said. The others nodded. I answered the phone.

"Hey, dad." I said.

"You are in big trouble young man." My dad said.

"What did I do this time?" I asked.

"We just got your report card. It says you've been absent from classes for three months!"

"I had something to take care of."

"I don't care. I've arranged for you to go to the local school here in Germany. I'll be picking you up tomorrow afternoon. Be at the gates waiting for me." He hung up.

"What?!" I shouted. The others looked at me.

"Something wrong Ulrich?" Aelita asked.

"My dad is making me go back to Germany because of my poor grades and absences." I said.

"He can't do that!" Yumi shouted.

"Yes. He can. He's my dad. I have to do what he says." I said. We decided to go back to Kadic and get a good night sleep before I had to leave. Dartz, Odd, Duke, Yumi, and Jeremy said they would help me pack in the morning.

The Next Day

In the Courtyard

I had all of my stuff packed up. I was saying my final goodbyes to the gang.

We sign our cards and letters BFF.

You've got a million ways to make me laugh.

"Guys, I'm really sorry I had to leave." I said.

You're looking out for me.

You've got my back.

It's so good to have you around.

"Don't worry about it." Duke said. "I'm sure you'll come back at some point. In fact, I know you will." My dad drove up and honked the car horn.

You know the secrets I could never tell.

And when I'm quiet you break through my shell.

"There's my dad. I guess I'd better get going." I said. I gave the guys one last handshake and the girls one last hug. I stopped when I got to Yumi.

Don't feel the need to do a rebel yell.

Cuz you keep my feet on the ground.

"I'll miss you." Yumi said hugging me tightly.

You're a true friend.

You're here till the end.

"So will I." I said. "Just remember. I will always love you, no matter what." My dad honked the car's horn again.

You pull me aside when somethin ain't right.

Talk with me now and into the night till it's alright again.

You're a true friend.

"Bye, everyone." I said. "You guys are like my real family."

You don't get angry when I change the plan.

Some how you're never out of second chances.

"You're like family to us to, Ulrich." Odd said. "Feel free to come and visit whenever you like."

Won't say I told you when I'm wrong again.

I'm so lucky that I found,

"Thanks, guys. You're the best." I said.

A true friend.

You're here till the end.

"Go on. Your dad's waiting." Jeremy said. I walked over to my dad's car.

You pull me aside when somethin ain't right.

Talk with me now and into the night till it's alright again.

"Ulrich! Hold up!" Dartz shouted running up to me. He opened his hand to reveal a pendant with a small silver boulder for a charm. I looked at him curiously.

True friends will go to the ends of the earth.

Till they find the things you need.

"What's this for?" I asked.

Friends hang on through the ups and the downs.

Cuz they've got someone to believe in.

"All of us have one." Dartz said showing me a pendant with a flame charm.

A true friend.

You're here till the end.

"As long as we all have one, we know we'll always be together." He continued.

You pull me aside when somethin ain't right.
Talk with me now and into the night.
Don't need to pretend.

"Thanks, Dartz." I said. He gave me the pendant.

Oh you're a true friend.
You're here till the end.

"No problem." He said. "See ya next time."

You pull me aside when somethin ain't right.
Talk with me now and into the night till it's alright again.


"Bye, Dartz. You're the best friend a guy could ask for." I said. I got in the car.

You're a true friend.
you're a true friend.

"Good bye, Ulrich Stern." I heard Dartz say before my dad drove off.

You're a true friend.


Me: I know, a short chapter for the ending, but it still fits as an ending.

Jeremy: Please review to this chapter.

Aelita: Please state any ideas you have for the sequel in a review.

Me: See ya in the sequal!
