Chapter 37
Disclaimer: I own nothing
William lay unconscious in the scanner. Dad? Carly said and rushed over to him. They pulled him out of the scanner and placed him upright against a wall. Guy's this is a major thing we just did Melody a hushed tone careful not to wake William quite yet. The past warriors are going to kill us! Naomi said heck they were already super upset when they found out I knew that William was going to be captured. I can just imagine how upset they'll be now that we had a secrete mission and ended up binging William back. Hey just calm down and keep your voice low Melody said let me think for a second ok. Um Mel we need to decide what to do fast Jake said. You know uncle Jearmie will be here in two hours or so to work on a way to bring back uncle William but he can't do that now can he Jake said. Melody sighed were going to have to tell them theirs no hiding this. Are you sure? Carly asked. Yeah Melody said I mean where would we hide him our hotel room. And what would the past warriors think when in Williams place this new enemy of ours was to show up. Im going up to the Control room Melody said I have to look somethings over before we call them you three try to get William to wake up.
William was sleeping and it felt like the first time he had slept in a while but he wasn't only sleeping he felt oddly at peace right now as if something had been lifted off his shoulders. He was with Yumi and they were just goofing around in class joking and laughing about something Jim had done earlier. It was all gong so well the bell rung not so soon after and he was waling with Yumi in the woods. I'm glad we're hanging out again. I feel like I haven't been seeing much of you lately. Your always off with Ulrich now days. Well Im with you now Yumi says and grabs Williams hand. Yumi you know how I feel about you I just want you to give me a chance. Is that all she? asked. William nodded. If thats what you want then you've got it William I'm starting to feel for you something that I don't feel for Ulrich. All we'll ever be is just good friends.
William smiled and leaned in to kiss her but just before they could kissYumi said watch out and pushed him down. They just missed a huge blade that was now stuck in a tree he looked over to where it came from and saw this dark figure with a new blade now in hand. Are you alright he said and looked to Yumi who was dressed differently now. Stay here she said and pulled out two fans. William saw Yumi going head to head with this guy and it wasn't looking to good for her. William pulled the blade that was launched in the tree out and went straight for this dark figure. Right before he could finish Yumi he blocked the blade with his own and the dark figure smiled at him but to William's horror he could now see the face of this foe and it was a look alike of himself. William angry and confused stabbed straight through him with no resistance from his foe. Who now had some how became Yumi. No! William yelled. William she said I knew we shouldn't have trusted you were her last words before she disappeared in pickles. William sunk to his knees and looked around him. He was no longer in the forest he was in sector five and realization hit him he had been the for it was no look alike. The scyphozwa had gotten him and though his memory scarce he did remember that whole day and the things he had done to to his friends on that day alone. What else had he done?
William Carly said and shook him. He looked so peaceful none of them would have guessed the nightmare he was enduring right now. You have to get up! Jake said really loud. At this William's eyes shot wide open he was breathing heavily but quickly calmed himself. He looked around and saw Odd no thats not Odd he thought. Then a girl who's eyes he had seen a thousand times but they weren't attached to Yumi this girl was a brunette. And then another girl who looked familiar but he couldn't quite remember from where. Who are all of you? He asked. Ummm friends.. Jake said. We're new warriors and you'e been gone for a little bit Carly said. William clenched his head after feeling a sharp pain. New warriors huh? wheres every one else. On the way Carly said. Do you remember anything? Naomi asked him. Hey! Carly said to her you know thats kind of a tough subject. I remember enough William said now getting up. Lets go to the control Carly said every one else will be here soon enough. William stepped in to the elevator with these so called ''new warriors'' and when the door opened he expected to see at least one familiar face. He saw the back of someones pink head and was sure it was Aelita a sigh of relief escaped from him. I called them she said. William noticed her voice was a little off maybe she's sick he thought until this girl turned around and it was not Aelita. Something fishy was going on and he did not trust these new warriors.
Jearmie had gotten a call from Melody who said she was at the factory and it was urgent every one needed to show up for a meeting. He didn't know what to expect so he got every one together and headed straight to the factory. To say he was shocked to see William to the factory when those elevator doors opened would be an understatement. What happened? Jearmie asked. I'll explain everything Melody said. William on the other hand was happy to finally see people he knew and felt a lot better about his siltation. After Jearmie and the others confirmed what theses new warriors where saying. So Jearmie said how did William get here? I didn't tell any of you this and I'm sorry I kept it secrete but over the last couple days I've been working on a program to help Carly speak with William and today when we finally acted on this plan and set the program in motion. Carly and William in to a simulation bubble. William looked over to Carly who was watching Melody talk. He was pretty sure he'd never seen this girl in his life why would she want to speak with him? What significance did it have to her? He thought about the way she looked long dark hair and her face she did look like someone who could be in his family. But their were no Carly's he knew in the Dunbar family.
After they wen't in to this bubble things just go that much harder from the out side Xana sent out more monsters and Naomi and Jake were doing their best to hold on. Until this new guy came in and claimed to be Xana he had a had long dark hair and a double edged sword. And two of Xana's sings where his eyes should have been Naomi said. He"s probably the strongest warrior I have ever fought Jake said its true Carly added he was way stronger than William under his control. He acted like Naomi and I were easy for him to take on and he was so fixed on the idea of taking one of us as his second minion. Well I guess he wouldn't be getting a second one now that William's back. But he was still pretty serious Jake he almost dropped me in the digital sea do you know haw far it would have set us back. Anyway Melody said when the bubble fell it was supposed to erase all of Williams memories of Carly and he would be as he once was. But Xana had all of his monsters attacking the bubble which kind of messes up my program and once William got out he was on our side again.
I can't believe you did this with out telling us Aelita said this was dangerous and you guy's took it upon your selves to go to lyoko alone. She's right guy's Jearmie said you've only been here for a week and look at everything thats happened if this continues what do you think Xana will do? You should have never kept this a secrete Odd said and if you had a way to bring William back we would have helped you Ulrich said. Melody shook her head our intention was never to bring William back Dad was supposed to do that later on. We only wanted to give Carly a chance to talk to him but everything went down hill. Either way Ulrich said we need to stop actin like separate teams we are all warriors which means we ore on the same side as one team. We really are Yumi says and that means no more secretes. Any thing that has to do with the super computer should be out for every one in the group to know. No more secrete missions or training sessions if your going to do any of this you have to let every one know. It's becoming to dangerous not to. We understand Carly says one team no secretes and I think that Jake and I's little training sessions should come to an end now anyway since William's back and Xana's taking a special interest in us new warriors. Fine with me Jake said Naomi? Is that ok with you he asked I know you wanted to start training with us it's totally fine Jake I understand. Good Jearmie said is their any thing else any one wants to say well yeah William said can someone please tell me what happened while I was gone?
I've got this Yumi says. Melody was about to say something about every one forgetting everything when they leave but Naomi as if reading her mind says every thing is out now before Melody can let out the truth. Great Jearmie says William before you go let me scan you and make sure every things good then Aelita and I will get rid of your clone. My what?! He asked. Don't worry it's no big deal Yumi said I'll explain everything. William went down to the scanners and the future warriors left with Melody to fin William's clone. Yumi pulled Ulrich off to the side while William was down in the scanners. You don't mind that I'm filling William in on everything do you? You know I was closest to him before Xana got him so I should probably tell him. No its fine he said. Are you sure your not going to be jealous now that William's back? I am still going to be friends with him. Yumi of course not I was only jealous before because I thought you might prefer William over me but your my girlfriend now so I guess I was just being stupid. She held his hands it was always you she said and kissed him. Hey love birds Odd said you might want to break it up before William gets up here Jearmie just finished his scan and I don't think we should break everything to him in one day. William came back up and Jearmie said everything came back fine your clean William no viruses or anything. Great should we get going Yumi? He asked. Yeah she said I'll see you tomorrow she said to them before leaving with William. How do you think he'll take everything thats happened? Odd asked which mad Ulrich think of how he would react. Not to well he sighed. And left the factory with Odd he was ready to get back to kadic after they all had missed their last three classes of the day.
What was that Melody asked Naomi on their way out of the factory why did you lie to ur parents like that. Think about what that would have done Naomi said they didn't seem to mad about today but I know my parents and no way would they be okay with losing their memories. It would have added flame to the fire do you honestly think your parents would be ok with this? My dad probably wouldn't mind Jake said but mine would Carly said he wouldn't like that when we leave he will be under Xana's control again with no memories of us at all. Now that I think about it Melody said I think your right Naomi good call my mom and dad might also have some issues with this. Come on its not that bad Carly said o Melody who looked sad after realizing she has to keep this lie. They know everything else it's just one last secrete. I'll even come with you to find Uncle Williams clone ad deactivate it Naomi said. Jake and Carly headed back to the hotel.
You've been gone for three weeks Yumi said to William. What! That long? I must have a ton of homework an my grades are probably complete garbage. Don't worry about it Yumi said Jearmie mad a clone of you who took care of everything. What a relief he said. So how have you been Yumi? Things have been alright there the best its going to be right now with everything going on. They were in the forest now and William shrugged off the brief memory he had of his bad dream. Did you miss me? He asked. Umm I guess Yumi said you shouldn't have been so cocky on lyoko. Your rightWilliam said. You know what I've been gone a while and I think we should hold off on the explanation right now. How about me and you go on a date and we can take it from there? I don't think thats a good idea I'll just tell you everything tonight. Come on why not? I just can't ok i'm in a relationship now. What! With who? Don't tell me its Ulrich. Look William lets not talk about that right now. Fine. William said who are those new kids in your group just letting any one join now how could you be so reckless. We're no being reckless William those kids are from the future. What do you mean the future. Like our future Yumi said.
So Xana's still attacking us how far back did they come? Not exactly Yumi says Naomi got sent back on accident I think he came back twenty-five years. Thats heavy he says. And which one is Naomi why do they all look so similar to you guy? Naomi's the brunette she's Ulrich's daughter. Melody has Pink hair and she's Jearmie and Aelita's daughter. Jakes Odds son and Carly the tall girl with Dark hair thats your daughter. It all made since now William thought why Carly would try and help him but then he thought Yumi said every one's name but her own and he still had hope. Why don't you have a kid from the future? I do she took a deep breath I'm Naomi's mom. But Naomi's Ulrich's daughter. And mine she says. Oh William says defeated. Look William you and I are friends and.. She's cut off. Yeah I know he says I'll see you later Yumi he says and walks off.
William goes to his room and sulks for at least an hour before someone knocks on the door, He had really liked Yumi and to think that she chose Ulrich over him really made him sad. Ulrich was a whole year younger and she still picked him he slumped down on his bed. he had lost since of time on lyoko it felt like he had been gone for three days at most not three weeks. His bed was so comfortable and no matter how long he had been gone he had missed his room. He ignores the knocking at first but it just continues. Until he finally breaks and says Fine come in. Carly then walks in. Look I had no idea that you had feelings for aunt Yumi and I'm sorry that you got hurt. It's no big deal William lie's. I'll manage. Do you want me to tell you about the future? William needing some good news agreed to listen to what Carly had to say. Well your a successful business owner with a couple of hardware stores around our area. You've really been looking to expanding the business. Oh and your married in the future so don't be to down about aunt Yumi. And just who is this girl I'm with in the future. You don't know her yet. You meet at college and then have me later on. Thats a long wait William says do I even love her? Um yeah you do! Carly says you've been together for like 19 years and you have a kid. Your always going off on vacations every year for your anniversary to. Like really nice vacations to. And your always so supportive of everything we do. Well I guess I don't turn out to bad he says. You really don't Carly tell him. Now cheer up don't let the things that are happening now get you to upset. Carly stayed and talked with William for a while and he definitely seemed happier after their talk even laughed some but she knew this wasn't when things would get bad for him it was two months from now when he would start to remember everything and have horrible nightmares.
In the factory later that night after every one had cleared out William wasn't the only thing to pop up in the scanners that day.
