Lunch
Aelita sits down at the table with Jeremie. "I heard a teacher talking when I went back for my book. They said they were going on a date and hoped they would be laid. What is that? Do we do that on our dates?" Jeremie starts choking on his food.
"Whoa Jeremie swallow then breath." Ulrich smacks him on the back.
"Aelita that, I, you shouldn't, well you don't know what he meant. That is slang for uh, well, remember that health class we did?" She nods. "It is another way, a crude way, of saying they hope they get uh, that."
"Mating? But, it, that is disgusting and looks painful and leads too more people and this planet is already burdened with over six billion humans."
"It isn't painful, so I heard." Yumi blushes. "Jeremie," He cuts her off.
"I know I owe you another month of homework."
"And there are ways of making sure the other person doesn't get pregnant. But don't worry you are years away from even worrying about that. We all are." Odd mumbles.
"I hope not that far away." Yumi, Ulrich, and Jeremie all yell.
"Odd!"
"What? Oh, did I say that out loud?"
"Say what out loud?" William sits down with his tray.
"Nothing, drop it." Every one gets very interested in their food and don't say another word for the rest of lunch.
"Aelita we'll talk after class but uh, before you go to the Factory." Yumi looks over at Jeremie who nods agreeing to another month of homework.
Factory After Class
Aelita sits on the floor leaning against the wall while working on the laptop. "It has been too long we can't find him."
"Maybe we can Aelita we don't know what we can and can't do until we try it. I'm thinking maybe if we could go between worlds ourselves we could find him."
"But how would we do that?" He shrugs his shoulders. "The longer it takes the more hopeless it seems."
"I know Aelita but we can do it. We've never failed before even if it took us a few months. I was thirteen when I first found you and now I'm fourteen. If I had given up after a few failures I wouldn't have you here now."
"Thank you for not giving up." They get back to work.
Mall Later that Night
Ulrich and Yumi leave the movie theater. "That movie was weird."
"Was it a dream or did that happen? I hate when movies do that." Both laugh.
"Thanks Ulrich I needed a night out. Going through the notes with William gets on my nerves." She rubs her hand thinking of the writer's cramps she'd gotten over the past couple of months. "And talking with Aelita," Both blush.
"What about the notes?"
"Half the time they're either more crazy rantings or computer jargon I can't even begin understanding." Ulrich reaches out and takes her hand in his.
"I needed a break too. Odd uses our dorm room as an editing station for his movies. When he doesn't have Emily or Dana or Taelia or Claire or, well, you get the point." Both laugh again.
"I heard Dana thinks it is cute he won't be tied down. Must be an American thing."
"In a couple years we'll get out of Kadic and go to Jacques or Lycee Turgot. Maybe all the girls there will be smarter."
"My parents said they want me going to Turgot since Jacque is more of an art school. I hope we have Xana beat before then."
"We better. And uh, my parents said Turgot was better too so we'd be going to the same school. Even if you're there for a year before I get there." Both blush slightly.
"Um, I'm not very hungry. Maybe we should go back to my house. I still have history homework to do."
"I have math and science since Jeremie doesn't do it." Ulrich laughs.
"Hey you aren't the one explaining what a, um, and that, not old enough yet, Aelita." Both blush even more.
"I can't believe what Odd said at lunch."
"Yeah, what an idiot." They take a step away from each other.
Kadic
Odd has help from Milly and Tamiya as he sets up a movie. "Ok, press and play!" The projector lights up and his movie starts on the back of the dorm building wall. Several students and even a teacher or two had shown up for his big debut.
As the film plays Odd keeps the next reel ready. "Five, four, three," He starts making the swap when he tears part of the film. "No, crap, no!" A torn piece lies on the hot glass of the bottom of the projector and catches fire. "No!" The flame catches the second reel of film on fire. He curses loudly.
"Odd Della Robbia!" Jim and another teacher see the fire. "Oh, fire, fire!" Jim looks around. "Fire extinguisher, hose, any thing! I won't let this fire get out of control like when I was working, well, no time for that!"
The Next Morning
Jeremie and Aelita skip class and go to the Factory. "I'm sure we're close. Aelita if you can start on the shielding I'll work on modding it for the between worlds dimension." They step off of the elevator. "Wait, some thing isn't right." Jeremie notices the computer chair was turned with the back towards the elevator. "I always have it facing the elevator."
"Some one was here? They would have told us."
"Unless it wasn't Yumi or Odd or Ulrich. William might have used it. I hope he didn't mess any thing up." Jeremie gets in the chair and brings up a screen on the main monitor. "Whoa, wait, what? Aelita did you do this?" He shows her the program.
"I did not do that. But you didn't either. Odd? Xana? Bosh!"
"No way he's trapped between worlds. And Xana wouldn't help us and he didn't activate a Tower last night."
"But who? This is amazing. They transformed the Transporter so it would be ready for traveling between worlds. And it has the enclose ready for picking some one from the space." Aelita and Jeremie read over the rest of the program.
Class
Ulrich feels his phone vibrate. He pulls it out enough to see the number of who was texting. "Jeremie?" He pulls the phone out and hides it behind his textbook. "Factory after morning classes. Man this can't be good." He puts his phone away.
After Saturday Class
Ulrich runs in to the woods, alone. He takes the sewers to the Factory as fast as he can wondering just what was going on.
Yumi saw him run in to the woods and wonders what he was doing. She tried following him but William sees her. "Hey! Is you know who attacking?"
"No. I, I just wanted a walk in the woods. Alone."
"I'm part of this if Xana is attacking I gotta know."
"He isn't. Just leave me alone."
"What about translating? I don't think your parents will let me just come in."
"Don't care." Yumi continues walking in to the woods. William watches her then goes to his room.
Control Room
Ulrich listens as Jeremie explains the plan. "So I hop in the Transporter and I find Bosh and then what? And this is all based on a program that magically appeared on the computer?"
"Well, not magically. We think Bosh may have sent it. How we aren't sure. But Odd was different from Aelita so Bosh may be different from her. Maybe he can communicate through the space between worlds. We don't know."
"So I'm risking my life for him on a program you haven't tested? And why only me?"
"You're the bravest." Aelita sets the laptop down and walks over to him. "You would not be afraid."
"I, well, I guess, but what if it doesn't work?"
"You belong on Earth. You guys could rescue me so easily because I belonged on Earth. Bosh has never been here so the Super Computer may try sending him back no matter what we do. If it does then we'll work with that but right now he is stuck between worlds." Jeremie tried explaining more but gets in to computer jargon so Ulrich cuts him off.
"Can I call Yumi real quick?"
"Of course. We're sorry we sprung this on you like that. We just need this done as fast as possible. The longer we wait the harder it will be."
"I get it." Ulrich walks over to the elevator and closes the doors so he can have a private conversation with Yumi.
Lyoko
Ulrich is near the edge of the Ice Sector waiting for the Transporter. "Are you sure this will work? If this doesn't work are you sure you can bring me back?" There is a long pause.
"Yes."
"This should be fun." Ulrich sees the Transporter. "Yumi will kick your a," The Transporter swoops down and takes him off the Sector.
Between Worlds
The Transporter moves slowly across the empty white space. "Guys? What do I do? I can't control this. Well, wait, maybe." He tries directing the Transporter with little luck. "How should I find him if I can't control this thing?"
Sewers
Yumi is skating through the sewers as fast as she can. "I can't believe it. What were they thinking? What was he thinking saying yes? Some program just appeared on the Super Computer and he just jumps in the Transporter? Idiot!" Tears appear in her eyes. "And then he calls me and tells me, me, idiot!"
Control Room
Jeremie and Aelita can't find Ulrich or contact him. "What do we do? If we lose Bosh we can cover that but we can't cover losing Ulrich!" Jeremie's fingers fly over the keyboard.
"Yumi will kill us. His parents will kill us. We're dead." Aelita starts having a panic attack. "What do we do? We shouldn't have done it! We should have created our own. We should have deleted the program and created our own. What do we do what do we do?"
"Calm down!" Sweat pours down Jeremie's face. "We can do this."
Between Worlds
Ulrich starts worrying as he floats out of control. "How do I control this thing? I'm just floating aimlessly. I should try going left." The Transporter starts slowly turning. "Thought controlled, ok, uh, Bosh, AI, find Bosh." The Transporter starts moving.
Control Room
Yumi is screaming at Jeremie and Aelita. "How could you? How do we explain this to his parents? We, they, they could have us arrested!" More tears roll down her eyes. "If he died we're in so much trouble!"
"We don't know what happened with him. He could come back any minute. We set a two hour limit on the Transporter. Don't panic Yumi we aren't."
"Yes we are Jeremie."
"Thank you Aelita for telling the truth. I guess I'll start with strangling Jeremie first!"
"If you strangle him then he can not help me with saving Ulrich."
"Please do some thing. I can't lose him."
Between Worlds
"Bosh, Bosh, find Bosh. AI, find the AI. Oh please let there only be one AI floating between worlds." The Transporter continues flying between worlds slowly. "This is working it is really working. Oh please be moving towards Bosh."
Kadic Academy
Odd is left with several burns after a failed attempt at putting the burning film out. "Odd I give you my sincere apology but I would like it known your parents signed a contract that makes this event one they can not sue us over."
"Mr. Delmas please leave my patient alone. I don't think any of these burns are serious just some minor first degree burns and maybe one or two second degree. They are dangerous if not treated but I'm on top of things."
"I had a back up. That's all that matters. I had it backed up on two discs and Jeremie's laptop. My show will go on." Odd laughs. "Ow. Ow, hey, ow!"
"The cream will prevent infections. Or would you like losing your skin?"
"Ow."
Between Worlds
Ulrich sees some thing in the distance. "Bosh? Bosh! It must be. Come on get me closer. I just touch him and he enters the Transporter. Please be Bosh." The Transporter floats closer and closer.
Control Room
Jeremie pushes away from the control panel. "I'm sorry Yumi. You may want too start strangling me now."
"How can you joke?"
"Who said I'm joking? I don't know what went wrong. We just passed the two hour limit. The Transporter hasn't come back. What do I do what do I do? I don't know."
"Xana set a trap! It must have been Xana!" Yumi reaches for Jeremie's neck.
"Stop!" Aelita gets between the two. "Look some thing is happening." The holomap glitches then disappears. It is soon replaced by a holo image of the Transporter slowly spinning.
"I think the Super Computer lost contact with it then found it. The two hour timer just activated. We didn't lose him Yumi."
"You two better hope not."
Between Worlds
Ulrich gets closer too Bosh. "Ok Bosh please let this work." The Transporter gets close enough it touches Bosh.
"Aaaa!" Bosh is in the Transporter with Ulrich. "How? How am I here? Where is here? Ulrich? What happened? Is this Earth?"
"No you were trapped between worlds. They modified the Transporter so I could travel between worlds and find you."
"I was trapped? For how long?"
"Less then a week. Did you send them a program for modifying the Transporter?"
"No. I did not know where I was or what was going on."
"Then who did? They were lost and then a program just appeared on the Super Computer."
"Xana? Maybe he wants you for some thing."
"He sends the Scyph after all three AI. There could be a key piece of data in the three of us and he may need all three pieces."
"Ok but now I don't know how we can get back. Uh, home, home, Lyoko, Ice Sector, Mountain Sector, Lyoko." The Transporter starts moving again.
Control Room
The Holo image of the Transporter changes showing the inside. "He found Bosh!" Aelita and Jeremie shout in victory.
"He's ok? Ulrich made it?"
"Yes Yumi he's fine." Jeremie and Aelita watch the monitors waiting for any new information while Yumi focuses on the holo image.
Kadic Academy
Odd goes in to his room and finds Kiwi on Ulrich's bed. "Where's Ulrich? He should have walked you." He scratches Kiwi behind the ear. "At least you didn't make a mess. Let me get your leash and," He winces in pain. "I'll take you out."
Between Worlds
Ulrich and Bosh see nothing. "How do we know we are close?"
"I don't know I've never drove this thing before. I just thought find Bosh and it found you. Now I'm thinking Lyoko and it is moving but I don't see Lyoko."
"I don't think we can reach there from here. I'm not sure how we can get back."
"I hope Einstein and the Princess have a way of getting us back."
Control Room
The timer reaches zero. "Are they back yet?"
"No Yumi it just ended. Give them a few minutes."
"But shouldn't they be back? That's why you have a timer."
"We wait for the screen showing," The Super Computer beeps. "What? No, wait, is it, no! They aren't on Lyoko!"
"Then where are they?" Another screen comes up showing the Tower Scan.
"Xana's attacking not good." Jeremie starts loading profiles when the Tower deactivates. "Wait, now what?" Another screen comes up. "This can't be right." The three stare at the new screen wondering if it was true.
A/N And so we end it with another cliffhanger! Did they make it back? Is every thing fine? And what exactly did he tell Yumi before going to Lyoko for the dangerous mission? And poor Odd his big film debut went up in flames, literally. We must wait and see!
