Chapter 20: Amnesia
Okay, I'm back and ready for anything!
Disclaimer: I do not own Code Lyoko period
Enjoy!
Dear Diary,
I've been meaning to write about my connection to Lyoko, and now I've figured it out. I can access this code, which I've called the Heart Code. With that code, I think I can access any program that's in the supercomputer, which is more than enough reason as to why Matt, McKenna, and I are here. Gotta go, we're doing a lesson in nanotechnology.
Write more soon!
-Naomi
"Here we have the nano-sphere that the Nanotech services company was kind enough to lend us. Who can tell us what nanotechnology is?" asked Mrs. Hertz
Jeremy, Herb, and I raised our hands.
"Jeremy, go on." Said Mrs. Hertz
"It's microscopic science technology. There are nano-motors, nano-circuit boards, and nano-gears." Said Jeremy
"Exactly. In the medical field for example, scientists are developing nano-doctors, tiny machines which will be able to travel through our bodies to combat disease." Said Mrs. Hertz
"I wonder if those nano-bots can combat Sissy." Said McKenna
I snickered at the thought.
"Scientific research still has a long way to go." Said Mrs. Hertz
"Are these robots capable of fighting pimples, cellulite, and things like that?" asked Sissy
"Ha-ha, yes they can, but the priority is for more serious illnesses." Said Mrs. Hertz while the whole class was cracking up
"And nanotechnology can't do a thing about stupidity. Poor Sissy, what a shame." Joked Odd
"Alright now, quiet down. So, this nano-sphere is used to make microscopic devices. Strange, it hasn't been cleaned properly. There's gelatin inside." Said Mrs. Hertz
"Looks like the greasy stuff Odd puts on his hair every day." Said Ulrich
"Well since you think you're so clever Ulrich, why don't you take a sample for us to examine." Said Mrs. Hertz
He took a sample, and it smelled.
"The gelatin is used as a culture where nano-devices can develop." Said Mrs. Hertz
"It looks an awful lot like jam." Said Ulrich
Odd pulled a fast one.
"Sorry, but I just couldn't resist." Said Odd
"I'll get you for that Odd." Said Ulrich
"And he means it." I said
"This is a science class children, not a comedy club!" exclaimed Mrs. Hertz
Later…
"Wow, this nanotechnology is incredible! Now there's a field I'd like to work on in the future!" exclaimed Jeremy
"I have enough trouble with normal sized technology, must less microscopic." Said Yumi
"Hey, you know the expression, no harm, no foul, right?" asked McKenna
"Well that's for sure." Said Matt
"Hey! That looks good! Can I have some?" asked Odd
"Here." Said Ulrich
"Ah!" exclaimed Odd
"I warned you." Said Ulrich before we all burst out laughing
"Yeah, but taking advantage of my sweet tooth wasn't fair." Said Odd
"Who said that a joke had to fair?" I laughed
"I'd said I'd…ah!" exclaimed Ulrich, obviously in pain
"Ulrich! What is it?" asked Yumi
"It's my head, I… ow!" exclaimed Ulrich
"Ulrich!" exclaimed Yumi
"Hey Ulrich!" exclaimed Odd
"What's going on around here?" asked Jim
"Uncle Jim! Something's wrong with Ulrich. Can you take him to the infirmary? Pretty please?" I asked
"Alright." Said Jim
"He was just fine this morning." Said Jeremy
"I know, it's really weird." Said Odd
"Yeah I'll…YEOW!" I exclaimed in pain
"Naomi!" exclaimed Matt
"Are you okay?" asked McKenna
"My head! It feels like something's…" I started
I couldn't finish, because I passed out
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/
When I awoke, I didn't remember anything, and there were two people over my head.
"Naomi!" exclaimed the female
"Thank goodness you're okay!" exclaimed the male
"W-who are you and where am I?" I asked
"Naomi, are you saying that you don't recognize your best friend and boyfriend? I'm McKenna, and that's Matt. You're in the infirmary. Maybe you hit your head too hard when you passed out." Said McKenna
"Passed out?" I asked
"Yeah. But this is serious. I've seen you take worse, and you never had amnesia before." Said Matt
"Matt, are you thinking what I'm thinking?" asked McKenna
"XANA." Said Matt
"Who's XANA?" I asked
"We'll explain on the way, come on!" exclaimed McKenna
"AH!" I screamed
They pulled me outside where I saw three other people.
"Guys, McKenna and I think it's XANA. Naomi has amnesia." Said Matt
"What?" asked the female
"Ulrich just passed by and didn't recognize us." Said a male with his hair in a spike
"This is bad." Said the other male
"Too bad nano-doctors don't exist yet, then we could see what's wrong with Ulrich and Naomi." Said the first male
"Nano-doc… now I understand!" exclaimed the second male
"Wait up!" exclaimed Matt
We ran into this building, where this woman was unconscious
"Mrs. Hertz!" exclaimed female
"Where am I?" asked Mrs. Hertz
"You'll be alright." Said the female
"Look at this." Said the second male
"It's the gelatin from this morning." Said the first male
"Is there something we should be looking for?" I asked
"Something with a bulls-eye." Said McKenna
"It would if I knew what a bulls-eye was." I said
"Ah, what are those ugly creatures?" asked the first male
"What I was afraid of. They're nano-viruses, and XANA must have created them to attack memory cells." Said the second male
"That means that it is contagious." Said the female
"Like all viruses, you can catch it from food, contact, sneezing. Soon the whole school will be infected, including us, not counting Naomi." Said the second male
"A world without memory." Said the first male
"Under XANA's control." Said the female
"Let's go to the factory fast! Aelita must be in danger on Lyoko." Said the second male
"And Ulrich! We're gonna need him!" exclaimed the first male
"No Odd, it's Ulrich who needs our help. Naomi needs it too. They'll only get well if we can deactivate the tower." Said the female
"Yumi's right. Besides, if he can't remember anything, he won't be much good to us." Said the second male
"And this time, we'll get you up to speed." Said McKenna
From what Matt and McKenna have told me, my name is Naomi, and the other person's name I didn't catch was Jeremy. They explained to me about Lyoko, and something about a virtual incarnation I have which involves transformation which centers around a necklace.
"You guys ready for the North Pole?" asked Jeremy
"Let me and Matt go with Naomi, we need to give her a tutorial." Said McKenna
"Okay. Ten seconds to transfer time. Transfer McKenna, transfer Matt, transfer Naomi. Scanner McKenna, scanner Matt, scanner Naomi. VIRTUALIZATION!" exclaimed Jeremy
"Ouch! That bites." I said
"Welcome to Lyoko." Said Matt
Matt looked like some kind of sorcerer, and McKenna was a fairy, and I was a warrior of some sorts. Yumi and Odd just dropped in, literally. Yumi was also a warrior like me, and Odd was well…a giant purple cat.
"Okay, take the access on your right." Said Jeremy
"Right." Said Odd
We ran for a while, and Yumi just got hit by something with a laser. The thing was a giant crab. Suddenly memories of me fighting this thing came back to me. I let my instincts take over, and suddenly, after sliding in a yellow gem into the necklace, I suddenly was in a different costume, and I had two swords. I pulled out one, and begun engaging in battle with the crab. I took it down after stabbing it in the back at the eye.
"How did you do that with me or Matt explaining anything to you?" asked McKenna
"Flashback, I remember a few things." I said
"That's good to know, at least you still can fight, Samurai Princess style." Said Matt
I felt heat rush to my face, almost as if I was happy to hear him say that.
"Two things guys. One, Aelita's waiting on the other side of the glacier." Said Jeremy
"And two?" asked Odd
"Two, Ulrich's on the way." Said Jeremy
"Ulrich? I'll wait for him here." Said Odd
"Better hurry." Said Yumi
"We'll tell you about your other transformations on the way, meanwhile, switch the gems." Said McKenna
"To which one?" I asked
"The aquamarine." Said McKenna
"Okay." I said switching the gems
My instincts took over again, and I hit the aquamarine that was on my bracelet, which in turn, showed me a new outfit, one that I thought was familiar, but I didn't know from where. My instincts took over again, and I summoned something that looked like a key, but my gut told me that it was a sword, maybe a cross between the two. The thing looked like a simple, whatever this thing was called, only there was this character that I thought looked familiar, but I didn't know how, but yet, I knew what the character meant. Once I regain my memories, I should be able to find out what the character means.
"Hello Aelita!" exclaimed Yumi
"I found the activated tower, we're almost there!" exclaimed Aelita
"Okay, lead the way." Said Yumi
"Okay, that weapon of yours is called a Keyblade." Said McKenna
"A Keyblade? That would explain why I thought it was a sword and not a key." I said
"Yes, well…more on that later." Said Matt
"We're almost there!" exclaimed Aelita
"But no resistance other than that Krab we faced earlier, there has to be an ambush somewhere nearby. XANA wouldn't go down without a fight." Said McKenna
"It does seem almost too easy, I have a funny feeling about this." Said Yumi
"Look out, more crabs." I said
"I'm sick of always being right." Said Yumi
"Got a plan?" I asked
"Yeah, take them out." Said Matt
"That's my favorite part!" exclaimed McKenna before taking to the sky
"Four against eight, well it's better than five or six." Said Yumi
"Hang in there guys, I'll try to send you reinforcements." Said Jeremy
"Let's try and get rid of six of them." Said Aelita
She created a wall of ice that blocked two of them.
"Hurry, it's not going to hold them for long!" exclaimed Aelita
"Let's do it! Ice Arrow!" exclaimed McKenna
"Raigeki!" exclaimed Matt
"I may not remember everything, but I can try this! Aero! Thunder!" I exclaimed
"Again? Yumi, be careful. You've only got a few life points left." Said Jeremy
"Fire!" I exclaimed
I suddenly was surrounded by a ring of light, and when the ring disappeared, I was surrounded with this pink aura, and when I attacked the crabs, my attack style was totally different. After a while, I spun in a circle, and a ribbon-like glow surrounded me as I spun and took care of two of the Krabs.
"Nice going Yumi, you as well Naomi." Said Jeremy
"One to go." Said Yumi
"Hurry guys, the wall's not gonna last." Said Aelita
"Don't worry, we got it…AH!" exclaimed McKenna before she disappeared
"What happened to her?" I asked
"When you lose all of your life points, you're devirtualized, and you're sent back into the scanner room in the real world. So don't lose." Said Matt
"Thanks for the FYI." I said
"You don't remember the past, but you remember stuff like that? Wow." Said Matt
"Well let's take care of the lobster over there." I said
"Good one!" exclaimed Matt
The wall broke, and that meant trouble.
"Ulrich!" exclaimed Yumi before she got devirtualized
"Hey, big red seafood platter!" exclaimed Matt
"Ready?" I asked
"Oh yeah." Said Matt
He tossed me up into the air, and I executed an attack that I didn't think I could do.
"Magic Hour!" I exclaimed
"Thanks for clearing the passage!" exclaimed Aelita
"And let's take care of these last crabby problems." Said Matt
I laughed at that one.
"Huh? She's leaving?" asked Ulrich
"Uh, not exactly total recall." Said Jeremy
"Jeremy, I'm coming!" exclaimed Ulrich
"No, I'm Odd!" exclaimed Odd
"One more to go." I said holding up my Keyblade
All four of us took down the thing together, and it dropped something.
"Great guys, you're one heck of a team." Said Jeremy
"Hey, this looks like some of the other gems in my bag." I said
"Slide it in." said Matt
I did just that, and I transformed again. I was in some kind of purple armor, and there were a couple of daggers on a belt that was around my waist.
"Is that it? No other players?" asked Ulrich
"No, we can go home. The game's over." Said Odd
"Huh? But how?" asked Ulrich
"Magic, watch." Said Odd
The tower in the distance turned from red to blue.
"Return to the past, now!" exclaimed Jeremy
After the return trip, I remembered everything! Enough to give my Keyblade a name. The Keyblade had a similar design to Aqua's Rainfell Keyblade, but the only different was the key part and the color scheme. The key had the Chinese character for moon, and the Keychain was different too. I named the Keyblade Star-Moon's Embrace. And the new transformation I got, I was a rogue, with two crystal daggers as my weapons. (A/N: I'm just too lazy to describe the armor, so if you play Dragonfable, and if you're a rogue and a female, then you know what the armor looks like.)
"Exactly. In the medical field for example, scientists are developing nano-doctors. Tiny machines which will be able to travel through our bodies to combat disease. Scientific research, however still has a long way to go." Said Mrs. Hertz
"Are these robots capable of fighting pimples, cellulite, and things like that?" asked Sissy
"Ha-ha, yes they can, but the priority is for more serious illnesses." Said Mrs. Hertz as the class cracked up
"And nanotechnology can't do a thing about stupidity. Poor Sissy, what a shame." Joked Odd
"Okay now, quiet down. This nano-sphere is used to make microscopic devices. Strange, it hasn't been cleaned properly. There's gelatin inside." Said Mrs. Hertz
"Looks like the greasy stuff Odd on his hair every day." Said Ulrich
"Since you think you're clever Ulrich, why don't you take a sample for us to examine. It's used as a culture where nano-devices can develop." Said Mrs. Hertz
"Anyway, it looks an awful lot like jam. Let's try to cook it, you never can tell." Said Ulrich
"Uh, Ulrich, that sounds like a bad idea." I said worried
He didn't listen to me.
"Ulrich, what are you doing? How dare you destroy school equipment? I'll have to punish you severely for that, and it's going to be a punishment you won't forget!" exclaimed Mrs. Hertz
"I hope not Mrs. Hertz. I sure hope not." Said Ulrich
Jeremy, Odd, McKenna, Matt, Ulrich, and I all laughed at that, mainly because we were the only ones who got the joke.
Later…
"It's great that you have your memories back." Said McKenna
"What? Did you miss the me that had amnesia?" I asked
"No, but it would've been fun saying stuff that wasn't true and making you believe it." Said McKenna
"Take that back!" I exclaimed
"Hey, can't you take a joke?" exclaimed McKenna
"Well, come on, it's late. Night." I said
"See ya tomorrow." Said McKenna
That night…
My Keyblade was knocked out of my hand, and another was put up to my throat. The person holding the blade was wearing a black cloak, and she had black hair and black eyes.
"It's over for you! You'll join Master XANA's side now!" exclaimed the female
Her Keyblade was knocked out of her hands, and the person in front of me was holding a sword. Before I woke up, I heard the words…
"I will protect you my rose." Said the male
Now the plot begins to form! Please review, and until next time, I'm sakuraphoenix saying I heart you, signing off. See ya!
