Author's Note/Disclaimer: Well, I made a promise to you that this chapter will be more interesting. I didn't end up keeping that promise, but I tried my best.

Jeremie: Return to the Past now!
Me: Yay! More time to write! Thank you XANA! But if I owned Code Lyoko, it would be easier.

-Xana's POV-

I may not have liked going to Lyoko, but I liked being away from Odd less. It was awkward being alone with Jeremie, considering he didn't like me that much. Then again, none of them did besides Odd.

I watched the screen sometimes, seeing what was going on with the others. Apparently, they'd gone to a replika of the forest sector. Odd was with Yumi were somewhere, trying to get rid of a super computer like the one here while the others protected the Skid, as they called it.

I didn't know where they were exactly, but I knew they were actually on Earth. Jeremie didn't really ask me to do anything, so I just stood there, waiting for them to come back.

-Odd's POV-

I was following Yumi in another lab under the control of XANA, but I was more thinking about Xana back at the lab. I didn't even notice Yumi talking to me at first.

"Huh? Sorry, I wasn't listening," I finally replied.

"Odd, get your head on straight!," Yumi looked at me, annoyed," I need your help, if you didn't notice!"

I looked to see that she was being attacked by a Tarantula. I got in front of her and used my shield to block lasers.

"How did XANA manage to materialize Tarantulas here?," I asked, mostly myself.

"There must be some kind of scanner in the lab," Jeremie said," He must have modified it to materialize monsters. I don't know how he managed it, but you have to get rid of that supercomputer soon."

"Why don't you try fighting these things?," I put the question towards Jeremie," Their even tougher here."

"Yeah, I've hardly taken down one and there's a lot of them," Yumi agreed," There has to be at least five attacking us right now. Who knows how many more are inside and Odd's only half way in the game."

"Hey, I'm fine now," I complained," Besides, I'm helping, aren't I?"

"Hey, stop fighting!," Jeremie huffed," Seriously, both of you need to focus on getting to that supercomputer."

"Right," Yumi said," We'll take care of it Jeremie, don't worry."

I continue to hold up by shield as Yumi still attacked them, but they just seemed to keep coming.

"How do you plan on getting out of here?," I asked her," We can hardly get past these things. There's no way we're going to make it to the supercomputer at this point."

"I know," Yumi agreed, then looked over to her left," But I think I have an idea. I need you to put your shield down on my signal."

"What?," I thought she'd gone crazy," It won't take them seconds to take care of us if I do that! Did you forget that there's a bunch of Tarantulas here?"

"No, but you have to trust me," Yumi smiled," It'll be fine. I promise."

I still wasn't sure, but I reluctantly nodded. Yumi then looked like she was concentrating on something and I figured it was her telekinesis. I wasn't sure what, but it took a few more minutes before I figured out what it was she was doing.

The pipes then started bursting nearby, hitting some of the Tarantulas and shorting them out. The pipes continued to burst, getting closer to us. There was only a few pipes left before the pipes would hit us and I heard Yumi shout.

"Now!," she yelled and I put down my shield. The Tarantulas took us out before the water got to us. We were back in the nav skids when they did. The replika started to disappear and we had to get out of there.

"Yumi, what did you do?," Jeremie asked.

"I used my telekinesis to back up the pipes," she answered," It should've flooded the whole lab, including the Tarantulas outside."

"You are amazing," he said," Well then, just get back to Lyoko and I'll get you back on Earth."

-Xana's POV-

I waited down in the lab for Odd and the others to come back out of the scanners. Ulrich, Odd, and William came out first. They all looked exhausted and I went over to Odd.

"Are you okay?," I asked him.

"Yeah, fine," he gave me a small smile," You already know what it's like to come back from Lyoko. Anyway, I'm glad to be back on Earth. Lyoko is fun and all, but I prefer the real world."

Two of the scanners then opened again and Aelita and Yumi came out of them. Ulrich went over to Yumi to help her up. We then all went up to the lab with Jeremie again.

"That was some pretty quick thinking back there," Jeremie complemented Yumi," I don't think I could've thought of a better plan if I wanted to. I was hoping for you to try a more strategic approach, since flooding the entire lab is a bit overboard, but it works and they won't think twice about it."

"Thanks Jeremie," she didn't seem all too happy though," But now I'm late getting home because we were fighting those Tarantulas for so long and I have no excuse. My parents are going to get mad at me again if I start being late like this again."

"It's okay Yumi," Ulrich tried to reassure her," It always worked out last time. We can figure it out again this time."

"Yeah, I guess you're right," she agreed with a smile," Anyway, we should probably get back."

Everyone nodded in agreement and we all got back on the elevator. We went to go back, but I was stopped by William. He was glaring at me angrily.

"I don't what kind of game you think you're playing, but I'm won't fall for it," he told me," I may have told the others I don't remember what happened when I was possessed, but I do. I know you're good at playing innocent, so don't think you're fooling me."

I didn't know what he was talking about as he said this. In fact, it kind of scared me that he looked at me so angrily. I didn't expect it at all. I then heard Odd call for us," Hey, you two coming with us?"

"Be there in a minute," I shouted, then turned back towards William," Look, I don't know what you mean. I just want to be normal like the rest of you, so back off. I think you should let go of whatever grudge you have for me, because I'm not like that anymore."

I pulled myself from his grasp and went towards the others, who were waiting for me by the skate boards, scooters, and now roller skates. I put on the skates quickly and William joined us by the time I got them on. We all headed back to the school after that.

So, that was the newest chapter. I'm sorry I haven't updated in forever. And I know it wasn't very long either. I'm trying my best with everything that's going on with me right now. Hopefully, I'll get more updates soon. Reviews please!
