Seaons 1.5

Episode 1: One Day

Again, Moonscoop created this series and stuff. I'm just building on and around it for my own amusement and I hope your own.

So yeah, we went from S1 to S2 with a lot of changes. Vehicles, new powers, stuff like that. So what happened between then? This will help build on it all.(I hope)

Yumi's Home

Aelita is eating with Yumi's parent's. "Why do you use sticks?" She was having trouble with the chop sticks. "At Kadic they use forks and spoons."

"Yumi I thought you said you discussed this with her."

"I did but I didn't know the answer either. Why? Didn't they use like, shovels and pitchforks when farming?"

"Well it started in China. They used sticks to take food out of the hot pots they used for cooking. The smaller the portion the less wood they used for cooking which was important. And as drought and famine was common back then they would give out smaller and smaller portions. While others would just put out say, a steak, the ancestors would chop it all up and put it in a bowl in the middle. You would use your chop sticks to pick a piece off and mix it with your rice. Not having a large chunk of meat on your plate you didn't need things like a knife and fork."

"Huh." Yumi has new appreciation for the utensils in her hand.

"History is so fascinating. How do they know that is accurate? Was it written down some where? Saved on a hard drive?" Both of Yumi's parents laugh.

"Yes, it was saved on an old laptop. They found Confucius's laptop and read all about the use of chop sticks." Both continue laughing as Yumi leans over and whispers to Aelita.

"They're joking, being sarcastic. It was probably written down on paper some where and preserved."

Kadic Dorms

Jeremie looks at a picture of Aelita they had taken. "I hope she's enjoying her visit with Yumi. She wants to experience every thing she can but still make sure we can stop Xana. If I could just get that stupid virus out of her then she could stay at Yumi's like we planned as a foreign exchange student instead of just making visits to Earth after Xana attacks."

Factory

Aelita gets on the elevator and takes it down to the Scanner Room. Yumi stands at the control panel ready to hit the enter button as soon as she saw Aelita was in the middle Scanner. Aelita looks up at the camera. "Thank you again Yumi it was a very interesting way of eating. Much different than my trip to Kadic for dinner."

"Different cultures do things differently. I'm glad you remembered to take your shoes off at the door."

"I am too. Earth has so many rules and customs."

"You'll learn them with more time here." Aelita gets in the middle Scanner and Yumi hits the enter button starting the virtualization process.

The Next Day

Jeremie welcomes Yumi at the gates of Kadic. "So how did it go?"

"She was fine Jeremie don't worry so much."

"Your parents didn't suspect any thing?"

"Like she was an AI who lived on a virtual world? No." He sighs.

"Good. We had a little problem with Sissi when we brought her here for dinner. Why when we get rid of the virus and bring her to Earth permanently I want her staying with you and not here at Kadic."

"Sissi is a,"

"A what?" Sissi is comes out from behind a tree with her arms crossed.

"Nothing." The two ignore Sissi and walk back towards the school.

After Classes

Yumi and Ulrich walk to the gym when they see Sissi is already at the door. "First you were at the school gates and now here. What do you want Sissi."

"What I want is an explanation."

"For what?" Yumi and Ulrich look at each other. Both see the other has no idea what Sissi was talking about.

"Why you and that string bean are always hanging out. I'm far better looking than she is Ulrich Dear." She gives her sweetest smile to Ulrich.

"Looks aren't every," He stops. "I'm sure some people might think you are but I don't." Yumi smiles and blushes.

"You know you think about me. You're nicer when your friends aren't around." Sissi walks off to pout.

Two Days Later

Jeremie is at the Factory working on three new programs. "I want you to be as fast as possible. The faster you get to the activated Tower the faster we can deactivate it."

"But this is very advanced Jeremie it could take weeks more before we can make it work." Jeremie looks up at a screen.

"Or a few more minutes. If this all goes through two of the vehicles will be done."

"And the third?"

"Well it has been a little more than complicated. The other two fly and this one doesn't. Why the two that fly were easier I don't know."

"Maybe we should make it fly?"

"But we gave it a wheel and this increased the speed so you could be on it. You could escape from Xana's attacks easier that way."

"Then make it do both. Speed when on the ground but also make it so it can fly."

"Well we already know how to make a vehicle fly so that won't be hard." The two continue hammering out the details of the new programs.

Kadic Academy

Mr. Delmas gets off the phone with a mother. "A new student will be moving in. We have several empty rooms but that is just a start. Finding spots in classes will be hard."

"I always have room for one more Mr. Delmas."

"Yes Jim but you don't require desk space. The rest do."

"Uh, well, we have desks and chairs in the basement of the science building. I could drag some up if we need to."

"He won't be here right away. Also we may need some extra time with him depending on what level he is at and what lessons his former school taught him." He hears the fax machine start working. "They're sending over some of his records now."

"Why is he transferring in the middle of the semester?"

"He was expelled." The other teachers talk with each other ignoring Mr. Delmas's stares.

The Next Day

Yumi and Ulrich meet out in front of her house. "So uh, Sunday, what do you wanna do?"

"I don't know. Not go to the gym. I'm tired of training. It makes me think of fighting Xana and I don't want to think of that. I want the day off. School, Xana, and Odd especially." Both laugh.

"Yeah one day sounds nice. We can have that right?" Yumi leaves her hand down by her side. Ulrich sees it and reaches for it then stops.

"Sure why not? Xana attacked a couple days ago he won't attack again so soon." They walk in to the city.

Kadic Campus

Odd is working on a new movie with Tamiya and Milly. "Thank you ladies for the help. I needed extra camera angles."

"No problem Odd. As long as you get us that interview with Ulrich. Soccer play offs are coming up soon. Is the pressure getting to him? And what about his relationship with Sissi, or Yumi, or Emily?"

"Emily is out. We actually have a date coming up. Should be lots of fun."

"So the rumors of them dating are off?"

"They're just friends." He winks at the two. "See you later ladies." He collects his camera and walks away.

Factory

Jeremie is at the control panel working on finishing the vehicles. "What do you think? I could virtualize the Overcycle and you drive it around the Ice Sector as a test."

"I can do that." The screen closes as Aelita steps outside of the Tower she was in.

Lyoko

Aelita gets on the Overcycle. "It is a little unstable." She revs the engine. "But it sounds, Odd would say I think cool."

"Go slow at first. If it isn't stable we don't need you crashing." Aelita revs the engine again and takes off.

"Woo!" She has a bright smile on her face as she zooms across the Ice Sector. "Jeremie this is really cool!" She takes a turn a little too sharply and falls on her side sliding across the ice.

"Aelita are you ok?"

"Yes. I am fine." She gets up and sets the Overcycle back up. "It is unstable. I'll try the flying mechanics now." She hits a button. The Overcycle rises in the air a few meters then lowers. "Some thing is wrong."

"Ok go back to the Tower and we'll try working on it a little more."

"Yes Jeremie." Aelita starts getting off the Overcycle when she feels pulsations. "Xana just activated a Tower."

"Where at?"

"The Ice Sector."

"Where you are? He might be targeting you."

"Yes." She sees a black mist flying towards her. "I will see how fast this can go." She revs the engine and starts following the pulsations.

Fast Food Diner

Ulrich and Yumi are eating when their phones vibrate. "Xana." Both text Jeremie back and leave for the Factory.

Campus

Odd is editing his movie when his phone vibrates. "Ooo, Emily?" He sees the text. "No, Xana. Could be just as fun. Although not as, well, I better go." Odd saves his work and takes off for the Factory.

Lyoko

Aelita drives around a large rock and sees two Krabes. "I can drive through them." She turns her head and sees the ghost is gaining ground on her. "I can't let Xana take me." She drives at the Krabes who fires lasers at her.

She drives between the two Krabes and takes a laser to the shoulder. "Aelita be careful find a Tower and hide!"

"I am faster than the Krabes or the ghost Xana sent." She looks down at the pulsations. "I'm far away but I have the Overcycle."

"Which is unstable and doesn't fly."

"I'm on the Ice Sector I won't need to fly." She looks behind her and sees the ghost fly over the Krabes. "Send the others here as soon as you can."

Factory

Ulrich and Yumi jump and swing down to the Factory floor below. They run to the elevator and hit the button for the Scanner Room.

Ulrich steps in the right Scanner as Yumi steps in to the left Scanner. "Transfer Yumi, Transfer Ulrich, Scanner Yumi, Scanner Ulrich, and virtualization." They land in the Ice Sector.

Lyoko

"Where's Aelita?"

"She's coming towards you from the east Ulrich." He and Yumi turn and see Aelita on the Overcycle.

"What is that? Jeremie is she on a new Xana monster?"

"No that is the Overcycle. One of three vehicles we've been developing for you." Aelita zooms past the two.

The Xana ghost flies over the two. "Yumi we must slow it down."

"How?"

"Triplicate." His clones split from him. "I have an idea." All three crouch down.

The clones use Super Sprint a second before Ulrich. They run past the Xana ghost and then stop. Ulrich runs up to them and uses the clones as a ladder launching himself at the ghost.

He slashes through it. "Yumi throw your," The ghost attacks him.

Aelita looks behind her and sees the ghost attacking Ulrich. "He'll devirtualize and go back to Earth." She keeps going for the activated Tower.

Ulrich's clones throw their swords at the ghost. The swords are destroyed as the ghost disperses.

Ulrich falls to the Sector below. Yumi runs over to him. "Ulrich are you ok?" He looks at her. She sees Xana's symbol in his eyes. "No!" Before she can do any thing Ulrich strikes her with a sword destroying her.

Factory

Odd makes it and sees the elevator is still down. "Were they in that much of a hurry or did Xana attack before they could send it back up?" He hits the button and waits for the elevator.

Lyoko

The possessed Ulrich races after Aelita. "Aelita, Yumi says Ulrich was some how possessed."

"Impossible."

"Some how he did it. It may not be like an animal since it is starting on Lyoko."

"And if he can do it to Ulrich then he could do it to me. But why would he want me possessed?"

"I don't know. The elevator is running so Odd is here. I'll send him to try and stop Ulrich." Jeremie watches through the security camera as Odd steps in to the middle Scanner. "Transfer Odd, Scanner Odd, and virtualization." He lands on Lyoko just as Aelita drives by him.

"Whoa that was cool." He then sees Ulrich.

"Odd, shoot Ulrich." Ulrich runs past Odd.

"Why?"

"Just shoot him."

"You say so Einstein." He aims and fires at Ulrich.

He hits Ulrich in the back. "You only took ten points off shoot him nine more times." Ulrich stops chasing after Aelita and turns towards Odd. Odd sees the dark energy spark around Ulrich.

"Uh you realize he's possessed by Xana right?"

"Yes."

"And that's why I'm shooting him."

"Yes."

"Got it." Odd aims at Ulrich who was now sprinting towards him. "Laser Arrow!" Ulrich blocks them. "He's fast."

"I was always faster!" Ulrich swings at Odd who ducks just in time.

"And I'm always cuter and more charming." He shoots Ulrich in the back. "So what other facts do you wanna state?"

"Duck!" Odd does and Ulrich's next attack misses.

"He's not completely possessed. Xana must be using a lot of power just for what little control he has now. Aelita you might have a clear path to the activated Tower."

"I do for now." She can see the activated Tower in the distance. "But keep Ulrich busy I can't fight him and control this at the same time. The whole vehicle is vibrating like it is about to fall apart." She fights against the controls.

Odd dodges slash after swing by Ulrich firing laser arrows back when he can. "So Ulrich were you enjoying your date with Yumi?"

"It wasn't a date." Ulrich freezes in place. Odd fires and hits him three times.

"He's down to twenty points hit him two more times and he'll devirtualize"

"Got it. He's fighting Xana making this a lot easier." Odd smirks as Ulrich freezes again. "Laser Arrow!" He hits Ulrich once before Ulrich blocks the next laser arrow. "But not too easy." Odd backs away as Ulrich raises his sword.

Aelita gets closer to the activated Tower as a Mega Tank rolls in front of her. "Aelita you don't have any help I don't know what to do."

"I have an idea." She closes her eyes and starts singing.

A ramp made of ice forms in front of her. She revs the engine getting as much speed as possible. As she goes over the ramp she activates the flight on the Overcycle. She gets over the Mega Tank easily and slams back in to the Sector just a few meters in front of the activated Tower. "Aaaa!" She crashes and slides across the ice tumbling in to the activated Tower.

Odd leaps back as Ulrich swings again. "Laser Arrow!" He hits Ulrich in the chest and he devirtualizes. "Ha and he thinks he is so much better than me on Lyoko."

"He was fighting Xana's possession so that made it a little easier."

"I'm still calling it as a win for," The white bubble comes up reversing time cutting Odd off in the middle of his sentence.

Fast Food Place

Ulrich and Yumi blink a few times. "What happened? I guess you guys did it with out me." Ulrich feels a little dizzy.

"Xana some how possessed you while you were on Lyoko." Yumi stares at his eyes checking for any sign of left over possession.

"Huh. So Aelita made it even after I beat you and Odd?"

"What makes you think you beat me?" Ulrich looks at his fries.

"Uh, just, when Xana possesses some thing they get really strong and fast. So I figured I beat you two."

"Odd beat you actually." He rolls his eyes and makes a weird noise. "What?"

"I'll never hear the end of it. I gotta sleep in the same room as him." Both laugh.

Dorms that Night

Ulrich puts the pillow over his ears. "Shut up Odd I don't care."

"Yeah but I do so you'll hear all about it." Odd goes over the fight on Lyoko again adding more and more lies, or details, as he would put it.

A/N You know the drill, two weeks!
