Disclaimers: This is a crossover between Sailor Moon and Code Lyoko. I do not own these two shows. Sailor Moon is written by Naoko Takeuchi in manga form and aired as a series by Toei Animation and TV Asahi in Japan and by Kodansha Comics in North America. Code Lyoko is created by Thomas Romain and Tania Palumbo and aired as a series the Moon Scoop Group for France 3 in France and by Cartoon Network in North America.

"William, we don't have time to explain," said Hotaru, "But, we can use your help."

"You're going to battle X.A.N.A.," said William, "I want in."

"You can't just decide to go with us," barked out Haruka.

"Haruka," said Setsuna, "We best let him come with. He can be the distraction."

As the Lyoko gang got over their shock and Hotaru got her embarrassment down, the others looked at each other to decide what to do with this new development. Haruka didn't want William to come for fear that Chaos would take over his psych again. Hotaru didn't think that because due to HER having a second chance, she believed that William should have one too. It was Setsuna who decided that William would be the distraction for the lower X.A.N.A. monsters while the rest went to get Usagi from the clutches of their enemy. The rest nodded their heads while William smiled. He really wanted to exact revenge on X.A.N.A., but if the Senshi were involved, he could wait. Everyone cautiously walked towards the factory to see that it was very empty. Using the elevator, they all stepped out to see Jeremie rushing towards the supercomputer. "Alright, Einstein," said Odd, "Do your thing!"

"I'm doing it," said Jeremie as he typed rapidly.

"So, while Jeremie is doing his thing," said William, "Can you explain to me what IS going on?"

"Let's just say that X.A.N.A. is really OUR enemy called Chaos, and leave it at that," said Hotaru.

"What," exclaimed William.

"William, it's just a very, VERY long story," said Yumi, "Please wait until AFTER we battle Chaos."

"Alright," said William.

The Lyoko gang, besides Yumi and a busy Jeremie, could tell that William only stopped because Yumi asked him to. That was the true love that William had for Yumi coming out. The Outers weren't really acknowledging what was around them because they were waiting impatiently for Jeremie to finish finding their hime. Pacing in the back where Jeremie was typing, the Outers ran towards Jeremie when he found something. "Aha," exclaimed Jeremie.

"Did you find hime," asked Michiru anxiously.

"Yes," said Jeremie, "I found Cousin Usagi in the Sector Five Replika."

"What," exclaimed the Lyoko warriors.

"What IS the Replika sector," asked a confused Hotaru.

"They are recreations of the original sectors within Lyoko," explained Aelita, "And, Sector Five is in space."

"Great," groaned Haruka, "More space."

"At least, with our Senshi powers, if we DO get sucked into the void of space, we CAN breathe," said Hotaru optimistically.

"Really," asked Ulrich.

"Yes," said Setsuna, "Our powers come from the Sol System. So, it would be assumed we CAN breathe through space."

"Just like the other Senshi passed Sol System," said Michiru.

William and the other Lyoko warriors were in awe that they COULD just breathe in space without a spacesuit. At least, it was a good thing when fighting off the hoard of X.A.N.A. monsters. Setsuna suggested that Jeremie downloaded the Lyoko mainframe into his Mercury computer so that it would be easier on all of them to find out where they are going. Quickly downloading the Lyoko schematics, Jeremie started up the automatic process of virtualizing everyone, including their transportation. The Outers followed everyone to the lower deck to see the scanners that would take them into Lyoko. "Well, let's get koneko back," said Haruka.

"See you all in Lyoko," said Odd as he stepped into the scanner.

- In Lyoko: Core Zone of Sector Five –

"Interesting," said Setsuna as all of them materialized.

"Jeremie," asked William, "Did you do something?"

"Yeah, Einstein," said Odd, "We usually have to go through the blue maze to get to the core zone."

"Ah, Aelita and I created this program to take us straight to the core zone just in case we had to go to the Replika quickly," said Jeremie.

"Yeah, yeah," said Haruka, "Let's go, shrimps. We have our hime to save."

The Lyoko warriors then turned their sights on the Outers and were surprised. Similar to Usagi's outfit, the Outers had their Senshi outfits, all four holding onto their talismans. Ulrich nodded as he gestured to the Skid, their virtual ship. Looking at the ship, the Outers never once questioned about the shape as they quickly aboard the ship. Aelita sat at the pilot's seat and started the ship. Jeremie sat down and took out his Mercury computer. He quickly typed in the coordinates into the computer, and off the Skid went. Once the Skid stopped in front of the tower that Odd and Yumi once used to get onto the space station, Jeremie activated the teleportation for everyone. It was, however, not WHAT they were expecting when they landed. "W-Wha," exclaimed the Lyoko warriors.

"What's wrong," asked Setsuna in her Senshi form.

"This doesn't look like the space station that Odd and I were in," said Yumi.

"It probably is," said Hotaru in her Senshi form, "Just that Chaos took over the space station."

"Then, everyone be on their toes," said Michiru with Haruka's eyes narrowing.

Suddenly, a cruel laughter sounded all around the darkness that was the supposed space station. The Lyoko warriors grabbed their henshin pens while William grabbed his Zweihänder, a massive single-edge blade sword that is longer than William's height. All ten of them looked around before a mirror appeared right behind them. The Outers were on the defense because they remembered one such mirror that was used by their dead enemy, Queen Nehelenia. Within the mirror, all of them could see Usagi unconscious and on a bed somewhere until it blacked out. Everyone cautiously waited with defensive poses until a surprise tentacle attack by a jellyfish-like monster came from the mirror. Everyone jumped back to see the monster coming out. "Scyphozoa," bemoaned Jeremie,

"Scypho-what," asked a confused Michiru.

"It's X.A.N.A.'s monster that can steal any information you have," explained Aelita.

"Great," said a sarcastic Haruka, "Whelp! Let's get to it."

Before anyone can stop her, Haruka rushed in with her sword and swung downwards. The sword hit the monster in the center where the X.A.N.A. target symbol was and promptly destroyed it. The Lyoko warriors transformed quickly, which in William's opinion, didn't really change their outfits much. All six quickly went to work to defeat the army of Scyphozoa that were coming out of the mirror. The rest of the Outers rushed in as well to help out. However, when one was defeated, another took its place. Eventually, all ten warriors were trapped within the Scyphozoa's tentacles and were quickly dragged within the one mirror that was STILL there. The ten shouted out in horror before rendered unconscious and separated.

- With Jeremie & Haruka –

"Belpois," said Haruka as she shook Jeremie.

"Ugh," groaned Jeremie as he blinked his eyes, "Where are we?"

"We are STILL within the space station, but those Scypho-whatevers separated us," said Haruka.

"B-But, we should be unconscious and STILL within the tentacles," ranted Jeremie.

"Yeah, well," said Haruka, "That's not how Chaos operates."

Jeremie groaned as he took his Mercury computer out. Opening it, the computer started to show a map of the so-called space station. Jeremie, with Haruka behind him, started to type more until something new came up on the map. Haruka whistled when she saw that. She didn't know what happened, but she believed Jeremie did something so that they can find the others. "So, what's with the colorful dots," asked Haruka.

"They're transmitters that I implanted on everyone before this rescue plan," said Jeremie.

"Impressive," said Haruka.

"Yeah," said Jeremie.

"So, who's near us," asked Haruka.

"Yumi and Miss Michiru," said Jeremie.

"Then, let's hit the road," said Haruka, "We need everyone before we can get hime out of this creepy place."

"As if I will let you get to them," said another female but sinister voice called out.

"Mercury," growled Haruka as Jeremie gulped in nervousness.

- With Yumi & Michiru –

"Ugh, my head," groaned Yumi.

"Are you alright, Ishiyama," asked Michiru gently.

"I'm alright," said Yumi, "Just wondering where we are and why the Scyphozoa didn't keep us for information."

"As you know," said Michiru, "This is Chaos we are dealing with and not X.A.N.A.. Chaos does NOT want our information, but it wants to destroy us."

Yumi groaned again. What Michiru said just made her want to go back and curl up in her own bed. Before the two could get their bearings up, a fiery arrow was shot within the darkness and towards Yumi. Michiru, seeing it, pushed Yumi out of the way. Both turned to see the arrow still on the ground before dissipating into nothing. They turned to the darkness to see the shadow of Mars stepping out, an evil grin on her face. "Let's get this show on the road," said Mars while black fire leapt up on one arm.

"This was my predecessor, right" asked Yumi who took her tessen fans out.

"Just an evil shadow of her," answered Michiru before calling out, "Deep Submerge!"

"Good to know," said Yumi before calling out, "Fire Blade!"

- With Odd & Setsuna –

"Great," groaned Odd, "Just where did Chaos drop us off to now?"

"I am not sure," said Setsuna, "But, be careful. We are in enemy territory right now."

"Right," said Odd before muttering, "Why am I the one with the serious one?"

Setsuna and Odd were quick to wake up and walk straight down a random path that unnervingly appeared before the two. Because they didn't know what else to do, they posed their weapons in front of them before walking cautiously down said path. It wasn't long until they were almost hit by a black chain that had dark orange glowing hearts on it. Setsuna glared as Odd's eyes widen from that attack. If the two walked more, the chains would have hit Odd in the chest. Both looked to see the shadow of Venus stepping out. "Nice to see you, Time Guardian," said Venus.

"I can't say the same for you, Venus," said Setsuna with venom in her voice.

"Oh," asked Venus, "But, I would just LOVE to hug you."

"Get ready to defend, di Venere (Venus)," said Setsuna.

"Uh, right," said Odd as he posed his arrows at the shadow of his predecessor.

- With Aelita & Hotaru –

"Flowers," asked a skeptical Aelita.

"At least, we are not in the darkness anymore," said Hotaru who shrugged.

"So, what was up with the mirror," asked Aelita.

"The mirror, if I recall, was something our past enemy, Queen Nehelenia, did to spread nightmares to everyone," explained Hotaru, "But, I believe that Chaos is recreating Queen Nehelenia's plan since we are all separated. We were separated before when we went to rescue the past Prince Endymion."

"You are too smart for your own good, Saturn," said a sinister female voice.

Aelita and Hotaru turned around to see the shadow of Jupiter. Jupiter had her evil glint in her eyes along with the evil smirk. Without warning, Jupiter sent out her Sparkling Galactica Wide Pressure at the two Senshi. Both Senshi jumped away from the attack. However, Jupiter was right in front of Aelita and punched her in the stomach. Hotaru growled as she tackled Jupiter as Aelita was recovering. "Aelita, you alright," called out Hotaru.

"Just peachy," said Aelita as she rubbed her stomach.

"You alright to defeat Jupiter with me," asked Hotaru.

"Yeah," said Aelita, "Let's give this poser the shock of her life."

"Now, that's what I'm talking about," said Hotaru as she had her glaive in front of her.

- With Ulrich & William –

"Come on, Dunbar," said Ulrich.

"Why are YOU the leader, Stern," asked a frustrated William.

"Because, unlike you, I am connected with Usagi and can feel her," said Ulrich with an exasperated expression on his face.

Both William and Ulrich were walking around to find the others or to find Usagi after waking up together in darkness. It wasn't long that the two found some sort of light on the bottom of wherever they walked straight to. It also wasn't long that Ulrich could feel Usagi's aura since both had powers over the Moon. Dragging William along, Ulrich explained that he was leading them both to Usagi. Ulrich, however, didn't know that the feeling was actually a semi-formed soul bond between him and Usagi due to him being the unconscious newest Earth prince. William looked at Ulrich as Ulrich turned back to get his connection with Usagi what he thought was Moon powers. "You really like Usagi," stated William.

"No," said Ulrich, "I think my feelings are more than just like. Why you ask?"

"Because, now, I don't have competition to win Yumi's heart," said William.

"Well, it could have been different," said Ulrich, "I could still have feelings for Yumi if the Outers and Usagi didn't come to Kadic."

"Yeah, but you don't, do you," asked William.

Ulrich sighed as he once led William to the right as the connection became stronger as time went on. He knew about his rivalry with William a long time ago, but now, Ulrich felt like William was just fishing for information on his relationship with Yumi and Usagi. Ulrich had time to sort out his feelings a while ago. He just never acknowledged them until it was too late and Usagi was kidnapped. Stopping, Ulrich turned to William. "Look, William," said Ulrich, "Before Usagi ever came to Kadic, yes, I DID have feelings for Yumi. But, our relationship was toxic, as Odd kept saying to me. Yumi and I had feelings for each other, but we both were too proud to talk about it. We would always get jealous as well."

"So, you DO still have feelings for her," said William.

"Dude," said Ulrich, "You AREN'T listening. I DON'T have feelings for her ANYMORE. My feelings went towards Usagi."

"And," said William slowly, "How DO you know you have feelings… deep feelings… for her?"

"Well, I wouldn't know," said Ulrich, "But, I do like the way her face would light up when she smiles. I like it when I see her frustrated face when I am tutoring her. I like that…"

"Alright," said William, "I get it. You like everything about her."

"And maybe that's why I know that I have very deep feelings for her for a while. I was just too scared to admit it, especially when Odd is hanging around with us too," said Ulrich.

William quickly laughed as he thought about how Odd, of all people, would be with the lovebirds. He also thought about his feelings for Yumi. Just like Ulrich, he really had deep feelings for her. It was just luck that he was separated with his so-called rival for Yumi's heart. William felt better that he knew that the tension between the two were somewhat aired. However, before he could voice anything out, Ulrich placed a hand over William's chest to stop him from walking passed him. A door suddenly appeared in front of the two. Both looked at each other skeptically, but without having any other place to go as they tried to find their friends and Usagi, Ulrich cautiously placed his hand on the doorknob and turned it. The door opened to reveal a bedroom, and within the bedroom, there laid Usagi dressed in a black but somewhat very revealing dress, still unconscious. "Usagi," called Ulrich as both William and he ran into the room.

"Well, we found her," said William.

"Yup," said Ulrich, "But, now, we need to find the others."

"Wish we had Jeremie right about now," said William, "You know he did something to us when we virtualized."

"No doubt," said Ulrich as he gently shook Usagi awake, though unsuccessful.

AN: Whelp! Chaos is using recycled plans. I used recycled separation of the Senshi, except for four of them. Jupiter was alone in the Star season, but this time, Aelita has Hotaru. Ulrich and William finally can see eye-to-eye as well! =P Anyways, I won't be updating this story until AFTER New Years. Going to have sister-bonding time with my older sister in Hawaii~! 8D I can't wait! 8D So~! I leave you with this one and will see ya all next chapter. =) MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR! \(^^)/
