Xana: My demands are simple. By 10pm tomorrow night, Jeremie, Aelita, Odd and Ulrich must surrender themselves to the Scyphozoa. Waldo, you and William must also surrender yourselves by that same time, or I'll destroy both of you very painfully.

Odd: And what if we refuse to give in to your demands?

Xana: If you refuse to comply, Yumi will be thrown into the Digital Sea, ensuring her ultimate deletion. (an image of Yumi chained up briefly appears, Ulrich and William gulp while the other heroes gasp, the image vanishes) You have until 10pm tomorrow to surrender yourselves. Oh, and by the way, Ulrich, William and Yumi were making out in the Forest Sector replika. (Ulrich gasps, Xana laughs before he disappears, Ulrich growls and glares at William, who is scared)

Ulrich: You kissed her?! How dare you! (he kicks William in the chin and into the wall, Odd and Jeremie restrain him)

Odd: Look Ulrich, I know you're mad, but that doesn't give you any right to hurt William.

Ulrich: So? He deserves it! He was making out with my girlfriend! (William gasps)

William: She's your girlfriend?!

Ulrich: Yes, she is! Didn't anyone tell you this?

William: No! Not anyone I would believe anyway...

Ulrich: Who told you?

William: Priscilla Blaise.

Jeremie: Wasn't she arrested for theft?

William: For multiple instances of theft, for framing a student, kidnapping another student, assault, and attempted murder. But that's beside the point. I thought she was lying. She always lies!

Ulrich: I don't know how she knew the truth, but she wasn't lying. Not this time anyway.

William: This doesn't make any sense... How could she have known? (he sees a vision of Yumi and Ulrich in the halls)

Yumi: I know you're worried, but, is there a reason that you asked me to come out here?

Ulrich: Yumi... I know you want us to be friends and nothing more, but...I'm tired of it. Yumi, I... I love you. And I know you love me. (he blushes, he puts his hand on Yumi's cheek, she blushes)

Yumi: Ulrich... I love you... To be honest, I never thought you would admit your love for me.

Ulrich: It was always Xana, William or my own pride and jealously getting in the way. I don't want anything or anyone to get in the way of this.

Yumi: Huh? (he kisses her, she kisses him back, Priscilla walks by and sees the two)

Priscilla: How interesting. I will have to make a note of this. (she runs away, the two stop kissing)

Ulrich: Did you hear something?

Yumi: Nope. (she puts her arms around his neck, he puts his arms around her waist, the vision ends)

Jeremie: You just got another vision didn't you?

William: Uh-huh. A flashback of how Yumi and Ulrich got together. Priscilla also happened to see the two making out and made a note of it. Everything makes sense now... (he face-palms) How could I have been so blind? (he removes his hand from his face as Ulrich glares at him)

Ulrich: You are such an idiot, William! Thanks to you, Yumi's in danger and we're all stuck between a rock and a hard place! This is all your fault!

William: How is this my fault?! (Odd is covering his ears, Jeremie and Aelita are displeased)

Odd: Stop it you two! You're hurting my ears!

Jeremie: Odd's right. Your rivalry is getting us nowhere. If you need me, I'll be in my quarters working. (Jeremie leaves)

We then went back to our respective dorms. It was 9:59pm. Almost ten. By about this time tomorrow, Yumi would be gone. Sammy was already asleep. I added the Yumi and Ulrich moment to the Book of Visions, shut it, and tried to go to sleep. I then noticed there was a letter on my desk. It was from my parents.

Dear William,

We're happy to hear that you're okay, and that the elusive criminal has been caught. We hope that the science wing will be repaired soon. We can't believe that they only apprehended her a few weeks back. We've have always known that you struggle with math and science, although it looks like it may be too much to handle alone. Should we hire you and tutor for advanced algebra and chemistry? Contact us using our numbers that we have written below the letter. Although, aside from chemistry and your terrible substitute teacher, are there any other problems that are making high school difficult? We want you to succeed. Even though we may be far away, we love you and care very much about your well being. Hope to hear from you soon.

Love, Mom and Dad

P.S- Try not to set any more buildings on fire.

I put their numbers into my phone and got into my pajamas. I lied on my bed and tried to fall asleep, but I was restless. Yumi was taken and in more ways than one. If we didn't surrender, she would be gone...
