Having been caught behind after numerous attacks and the recent party Jeremie decided that another scouting mission to sector 5 was needed, and the warriors unanimously agreed, however come the day of the mission Yumi was absent,
"What can Yumi being, we have to get some data from sector 5" said Jeremie as he looked at his watch, whilst down in the scanner room the other sat around, Dallas was throwing a ball at the wall and the others were noticing that he wasn't even paying attention to it as he caught it every time, "it's not like her to be late" said Ulrich as he raised his leg in the air to the height of his head, "maybe she's with William" said Odd, Ulrich looked at him slightly angrily, Aelita rolled her eyes at the comment, "I said maybe" said Odd before he moved away from the wall, "can't we just go now" he asked, Dallas looked towards him as Aelita said "Odd, you know the rule we don't venture to sector 5 without all of us being there", Odd shrugged his shoulders and crossed his arms, "besides, if we going for as much info as Jeremie says we need we're gonna need the most fire power to get Aelita there and to protect her" said Dallas as he caught the ball, Jeremie looked at his watch, "okay we're gonna have to risk it and go without Yumi" said Jeremie, Dallas huffed at the idea but grabbed his crossbow as he stood up, "off to the forest" he said, whilst in the sewers Yumi quickly grabbed her skateboard and rushed down the tunnel as fast as she could, back in the scanner room the warriors stepped into a scanner each, "Transfer Odd, Transfer Aelita, Transfer Dallas, Transfer Ulrich" said Jeremie as the scanners closed and he began the process, "Scanner Odd, Scanner Aelita, Scanner Dallas, Scanner Ulrich" said Jeremie as the warriors began to spin and rise, "Virtualization" he said as the warriors felt the blast of air, as this happened the elevator opened and Jeremie turned his head to the door, "now head to the edge of the sector okay" said Jeremie as he watched Yumi as she stood out of breath, "oh there you are" he said, Yumi grabbed her stomach as she puffed out of breath "sorry Jeremie" she said, Jeremie turned back to the computer as Yumi closed the elevator, "I'll tell them to wait for you" said Jeremie as the elevator descended "okay Yumi's arrived, just gonna need to wait for a minute or two" said Jeremie, Dallas nodded and whilst holding his crossbow with his right hand which he used to balance he signalled for Odd to take the right whilst Ulrich the left, "bunker down, we need to Keep Aelita secure" he said as Odd said "army brat" under his breath.
(=======================================================================)
Yumi quickly dropped to the ground and the others looked towards her,
"A little longer and we would have started the party without you" said Odd, Ulrich was slightly annoyed with her, "Where were you" he asked, Dallas overheard and moved towards them, "let's not get into this shit now, we're already behind as is" he said as he pulled up his hood, "be careful you have visitors" said Jeremie as he noticed Kankrelot signatures of the radar, "settle this later okay" said Odd then he turned to face the threat that was facing them, "I'm gonna give them a little Odd acupuncture" Added Odd as he and Dallas moved behind a rock and had their backs to it, "yeah whilst you're doing that, we'll destroy them" said Dallas, Ulrich looked at the girls and said "Aelita take cover", the aforementioned quickly dived towards Dallas and Odd, Ulrich drew his Katanna and Yumi her fans, "Now" said Dallas as he and Odd popped up from behind the rock and fired a bolt each, both struck a Kankrelot, "two down what a great way to start of the morning" said Odd, Dallas half smiled as he reloaded his bolt, Yumi jumped and threw her fans towards one of the monsters but it over shot and flew back to her, the creature fired a laser towards Ulrich as he was the only one out of cover, he deflected it more lasers were fired and quickly deflected "careful more Kankrelot's at o'clock" said Jeremie as more appeared, Dallas quickly turned his view and fired a bolt striking the one of them, he quickly held up three fingers to Odd, the later nodded as he back flipped into their view range and began firing at the first wave of the Kankrelots, he raised his arm and said "Laser arrow" as he fired at them, but one of the second wave fired and hit Odd knocking him to his knees, Ulrich quickly sprinted and swiped his blade across the creature causing it to explode, then one of the first wave creatures fired striking Ulrich in the shoulder, Yumi quickly threw her fan which sliced the Kankrelot in half destroying it, "one left" said Yumi, suddenly another wave moved into view, "spoke to soon" said Odd as he ran away from one, he quickly turned and jumped backwards firing at the creature, Ulrich quickly stabbed another, "how many of these fucks are there" said Dallas as he noticed that XANA was sending in the weakest creatures possible, "Yumi go protect Aelita now" Dallas said as he threw away his crossbow and grabbed his Tomahawk, "whats up" said Ulrich as Dallas stood up next to him, "It's a distraction" he replied, Odd fired another laser arrow and looked back at them, "what do you mean" asked Odd, whilst behind them Yumi quickly ran towards Aelita when the scyphozoa moved from behind cover, "AELITA RUN" shouted Yumi, the aforementioned quickly ran away but the Scyphozoa didn't give chase, "if XANA wanted us gone, why hasn't Adam or Evelyn appeared" said Dallas as he threw his Tomahawk and destroyed one of the Kankrelots, "AHHHH" screamed Yumi, the warriors turned and noticed that the Scyphozoa had grabbed her, "there's a good reason" said Ulrich as he quickly ran as fast as he could, Odd watched as the remaining Kankrelots just moved away, Ulrich jumped and swiped cutting the numerous appendages of the creature, Yumi dropped to the floor as Aelita ran over to her, Dallas and Odd quickly moved in and both fired numerous projectiles towards the retreating creature, "Yumi are you okay" asked Ulrich, Yumi seemed drossy "I dunno I feel funny" she said, Jeremie couldn't help but scratch his chin, "Dallas get Aelita to a tower, we're aborting the mission".
(=======================================================================)
"Code Earth" said Jeremie as Aelita appeared in a scanner, "Materlization Odd, Materlization Ulrich, Materlization Yumi, Materlization Dallas" said Jeremie as the remaining scanners opened and the warriors stepped out to a cluster of steam, "okay need to look into the cooling system" said Dallas as he waved his hand clearing the steam "is everyone okay" asked Jeremie as he sat back in his chair, "where's Yumi" asked Ulrich, the warriors looked around and noticed Yumi wasn't with them, "you must have tripped on your fingers Einstein Yumi isn't here" said Odd as he looked at her scanner, "I must have slipped up, I'll try again" said Jeremie, whilst on Lyoko Yumi was still in the forest sector, "Jeremie is something wrong" asked Yumi, Jeremie began to panic, "no, no there shouldn't be, I must have made a mistake" he said as he began to franticly type, "Materlization Yumi" said Jeremie as the scanner closed and opened again to nothing, "nothing again" said Odd, Dallas quickly moved towards the ladder, "can't be a loose connection" he said as he looked above the scanner, "Yumi I don't know whats happening but you're stuck on Lyoko, I can't devirtulize you" said Jeremie as he really began to panic.
(=======================================================================)
"Don't worry I'll find the bug, just stay in the tower, XANA can't touch you there" said Jeremie as all but Dallas joined him in the tower, Odd was holding his jacket though, suddenly Dallas emerged from the hatch, "right it's not a hardware issue" he said as he threw off his tool belt, "it's not XANA I'm worried about it's the principal" said Yumi, then it dawned on Ulrich and Odd, "ah fuck, I forgot todays the class picture" said Ulrich as he smacked himself in the head, Dallas grabbed his jacket, "so" he asked as Jeremie added "what class picture", Odd was shocked by their lack of knowledge "hello the eleventh grade class picture, it's this morning, one day suspension for any unjustified absence, thanks a lot Delmas" said Odd, Dallas rolled his eyes and swore under his breath "can you just picture my parents faces if I get suspended" said Yumi filled with shock, Aelita stepped forward and asked "whats so important about a picture", Dallas looked back and said "it's pointless really, a photo of you with some other people that your folks don't want, then Odd spoke up again "hey I got an idea, you know what a great actor I am right" he said self-indulgently, Dallas laughed and said "yeah the next Tommy Wiseou", Odd ignored the comment "with a wig, a dress and make up I can't take your place in the photo and bam, signed sealed and delivered" added Odd, Yumi rolled her eyes at the idea, "what the suspension form, no way" said Yumi, then Ulrich thought about Odd's idea, "hang on that's not a bad idea" he said, Odd smiled and said "see Ulrich finally admits I'm a great actor", Ulrich chuckled and said "calm down Tommy" he then looked back at the screen and said "but we know a somewhat competent actress".
(=======================================================================)
"Of all the bad idea's we've ever had this is the latest" Said Dallas as he, Ulrich and Odd stood outside the girl's bath room on the first floor, "if you have any better ideas speak up" said Odd as Ulrich knocked on the door, and it opened to Sissi in a bath room, "hi Sissi" said Ulrich trying not to make a joke or be disgusted "say can I talk to you for a second" asked Ulrich, Sissi was a taken back, "yeah well of course" she said as she moved away from the door, "I have something really important to ask you" said Ulrich scratching the back of his head, "who me" she asked with shock, "in exchange we are willing to do anything you want" said Ulrich, Odd wasn't too concerned by this, but Dallas's eyes shot open, "Anything" asked Sissi, Ulrich realised what he said, "well almost anything" he amended, "I'm listening" said Sissi with interest, "well Yumi for personal reasons can't be here this morning and I'd like you to stand in for her in the 11th grade class photo" said Ulrich before smiling to the best of his ability, "Okay" said Sissi with a pleasant smile on her face, "you… you'll do it and what do you want in exchange" said Ulrich, Sissi smiled and said "who do you think I am, I don't want anything at all, call it a personal favour to you and that's that", she walked back into the bath room, "that went well" said Odd as they walked down the hall but suddenly Dallas spoke up "we, WE, WE".
(=======================================================================)
Back in the factory Jeremie and Aelita were at the computer console and were examining the screen,
"In my opinion when the scyphozoa attacked you, XANA gave you some kind of bug Yumi" said Jeremie as he was unable to think of any better explanation, "could it have stolen some of my memory" asked Yumi, Aelita then looked at Jeremie, "that's strange, it's my memory that XANA seems to be after" said Aelita, Jeremie was all the more confussed, "if you ask me I think XANA took more from you, I'm gonna launch a digital analysis" he said, Yumi's eyes widened "is that necessary" she asked as if she was scared, "yeah" said Jeremie confussed as he added "stand still" he quickly hit enter as Yumi began to float as she was scanned, "whats that" asked Aelita as she pointed at the screen, "whats what" said Jeremie then he saw what Aelita was pointing at, "OH MY GOD" he yelled at the tops of his lungs in shock.
(=======================================================================)
Back at the school, the three were standing at the vending machines, Dallas couldn't help but think to himself,
"Hopefully Yumi will be okay" said Ulrich as he began to show that he was panicking "It'll be fine we got two geniuses working on it" said Odd in an attempt to cheer his friend up, "could XANA know" said Dallas under his breath, but Odd heard him "could XANA know what" he asked, Dallas looked at him and quickly lied "that we were planning a mission to sector 5 today" he said, Odd was just as dumbfounded as Dallas was, "if it did he must have some way of listening" said Odd, Dallas sat down and began thinking, "okay so Adam or Evelyn tells XANA, about today, but why Yumi, surely I'm a more likely candidate" said Dallas, Odd and Ulrich nodded in unison.
(=======================================================================)
"I'm not sure if this is the time to say it" said Jeremie, Yumi was pacing back and forth in the tower, "please don't, I already know but it's not the time for any of that shit" she said before changing the subject "what am I gonna do, what about school, what about my parents, what about my Little brother, what about you guys, and what about Ulrich" said Yumi beginning to panic heavily "bad news but XANA has stolen your sequence code for your human DNA" said Jeremie, Yumi was scared by the sound of it alone, "whats that" she asked almost too scared to, "when you're virtualized you keep your human DNA sequence code, you can't do without it, it defines your molecule structure for both you…" said Jeremie but he was cut off, "Okay, okay, what does that mean" asked Yumi, Jeremie looked down and sighed, "no DNA, no way to get back to earth" said Jeremie, Aelita gasped at the shock knowing the hell it was living on Lyoko having lived on earth, "oh no" said Yumi as she sat down and placed her hands on her stomach feeling queasy, "what if" said Aelita, Jeremie looked towards her and asked "you have an idea", Aelita nodded and said "send me to Lyoko", Jeremie was confussed but listen as she said "just trust me", Jeremie took a deep breath in through the nose and replied "okay I'll get you as close to the tower as possible".
(=======================================================================)
Back at the school Dallas, Odd and Ulrich were sitting outside Sissi's room, Dallas was again throwing his ball against the wall,
"A quarter of an hour to put on a dress and a wig" said Ulrich as he became almost as frustrated as Dallas, then the door opened and Sissi stepped out, she had put on a wig that resembled Yumi's hair almost spot on, however her clothing attire didn't quite match up a black chocker with a purple dress that stopped at the thigh's, the boots however were spot on, "there you go" said Sissi as she walked out of her room, "what do you think" she asked, the three looked up and down, "not bad the hair looks like Yumi's" said Odd, but then they noticed the attire, "yeah but she doesn't dress like that, she always wears black, and her dresses are longer and less…" said Ulrich unable to say the word, but Sissi said "sexy" finishing his sentence for him, "I was gonna go with repulsive but that works" said Dallas, thankfully for the warriors however Sissi ignored the comment, "well why don't you bring me one of her dresses then" she said as she retreated to her room, "right good idea we'll try" said Ulrich as Sissi shut the door, "Sissi's being strangely helpful" said Odd commenting on what Sissi was doing, "yeah strange huh" said Ulrich as they exited the building "great so breaking and entering" said Dallas as he clicked his fingers with his thumbs, "let's try and avoid that first part" said Ulrich as the exited through the doors.
(=======================================================================)
Having Ulrich quickly super sprint the three of them to Yumi's house saved them time but Ulrich was out of breath by the time they arrived,
"Wait here" said Dallas as he quickly grabbed the drain pipe and began climbing it, "you gonna be okay" said Odd as he knelt down to Ulrich, Dallas quickly reached the joining section of the house, "wish I had a hook blade" he said as he locked his fingers into the drain pipes opening, he quickly placed his feet on the wall and began to move along the side, he reached the window and began pulling at it, "fuck" he said under his breath as he moved back along the pipe, he then jumped down to Ulrich and Odd, "windows shut I can't wedge it open, without breaking the lock and my blade in the process" said Dallas as he knelt down, "I doubt smashing the window will help" said Odd as he looked up then they looked back to see Ulrich walking to the glass door which led into the lounge, "what're you doing" asked Odd, Ulrich looked back at him as he opened the unlocked door, "i know where Yumi keeps her dresses" said Ulrich as he stepped inside and shut the door behind him, Dallas raised his eyebrows and looked at Odd, "best we don't enquire how he got that information" he said, inside Ulrich was sneaking past the kitchen luckily for him the door was shut, "you know Takeho, I've been feeling depressed lately, you don't pay any attention to me" said Yumi's mum as Ulrich stepped on Hiroki's game boy accidently starting it, luckily she didn't hear it, "It's as if you don't listen to me" she added, before Yumi's father replied "Delicious, oh I'm sorry what were you saying", Ulrich quickly opened the door to the hallway and shut it behind him.
(=======================================================================)
On Lyoko Aelita was rocketing past numerous trees as she got closer to the tower, Jeremie spoke up and said,
"Watch out for monsters", Aelita took note and looked behind her as she was defenceless, "Aelita now will you tell me what you're doing" he asked, but Aelita simply replied "No", Jeremie sat back in his chair not understanding why she wouldn't tell him, back at Yumi's house Ulrich quickly snuck through the hallway, luckily the argument had escalated
"It's always the same thing, my mother warned me not to marry a man from Tokyo" said Yumi's mum as Ulrich reached the top of the stairs, he quickly made his way to her room and silently opened the door and shut it behind him again, "huh" he said as he looked at the empty room, he quickly moved towards her wardrobe, and opened it, "Bingo" he said as he looked for what most resembled Yumi's casual attire, he quickly grabbed it, whilst back on Lyoko Aelita had entered the tower and had opened a screen, "Aelita, please tell me what you're about to do" asked Jeremie again but once again he got no answer, "there the process is launched" said Aelita as she turned to Yumi, "what process" asked Yumi confussed, Aelita smiled as she said "the process of transferring my DNA sequence code to your virtual structure", Jeremie overheard and started to panic "what are you crazy" said Jeremie as he began to tear out his hair, "Jeremie, Yumi's place is on earth, if anyone should stay on Lyoko, until we find a solution it's me" said Aelita, this only served to frustrate Jeremie, "I don't agree with that Aelita stop it…" he started but he was swiftly muted by Aelita, "I knew he was gonna say that" she said as she moved away from the screen, "You know you're making a big sacrifice Aelita for both of us" said Yumi as she was scared at what Aelita was doing, "call it whatever you want to" she replied, whilst back in the computer room Jeremie was screaming at the screen "AELITA" he shouted, "do you hear me" he added to no response, whilst in the tower a stream of data emerged from Aelita's forehead before connecting with Yumi's, "Aelita, I can't believe this" said Jeremie nearly out of breath, then a window opened showing the procedure, "oh no" he said as he realised what was happening "this is unbelievable" he added as he watched the code drain from Aelita.
(=======================================================================)
Back in the Ishiyama residence Ulrich moved towards Yumi's door but as he opened it he heard her mother say
"I'll go wake Yumi up", he quickly retreated back into her room, he began to panic, he didn't see a quick way out, suddenly his phone rung, "fuck" he said under this breath as he quickly moved towards the window, he opened it and said "Need help, Yumi's mum is coming up the stairs", Dallas nodded and quickly climbed the drain pipe again and moved to the window, "come on" he said as Ulrich climbed out and Dallas grabbed him, "what now" asked Ulrich, Dallas looked down and said "do you trust me" Ulrich shook his head, Dallas sighed and as he let go off the drain pipe he placed his arms around Ulrich and the two dropped into the bushes at the bottom of the house, Dallas quickly covered Ulrich's mouth, "darling have you seen Yumi" asked her father as the three listened from outside, "no she must have left for school already" her mother replied as her voice got fainter, Dallas sighed and Ulrich rolled off him punching him in the chest, "Never do that again" he said, Dallas stood up after him, "you got the dress" said Odd, Ulrich pulled it out from under his shirt, Odd felt his phone ring so he pulled it out and answered it, "Jeremie, yeah I doubt Ulrich hung up deliberately" said Odd, Ulrich rolled his eyes, "listen Aelita's on Lyoko transferring her DNA sequence code over to Yumi" said Jeremie, Odd was confussed at what he said and asked "what", Dallas grabbed the phone, "long story short Einstein whats happening" he said, Jeremie was taken aback by the sudden change of voice on the phone, "Aelita is unknowingly exposing her memory to XANA, and she's cut off communication" said Jeremie, Dallas's eyes shot open, "right-o, we're on our way" said Dallas as he hung up and tossed it to Odd, "whats the plan" asked Ulrich as they quickly moved out front, "You two head to the factory, I'll give Yumi the dress, and meet up with you as soon as possible" said Dallas as he quickly ran off back towards the school with the dress folded in his pocket.
(=======================================================================)
"Only 10 more minutes before the transfer" said Aelita as she smiled, "everything will be just fine" she added as Yumi smiled, whilst outside the factory Odd and Ulrich quickly slid down the ropes, "girls you leave them alone for 5 minutes and it's mess after mess after mess" said Odd as they entered the elevator, Ulrich hit the comm button in the elevator and said "Jeremie warm up the scanners me and Odd are on our way", whilst back at Kadic Dallas burst into the girl's hallway and knocked on Sissi's door, "here" he said as she took it, but as soon as she did he was gone "not exactly what I'd call stylish" she said as he darted out of the door, he quickly ran towards the woods before clicking his fingers and rushing to the garage, he opened the doors and mounted his bike, turning the key the engine roared to life as he shot off towards the factory, Odd and Ulrich stepped out of the elevator and into the scanners, "we're hear Jeremie" said Odd, Jeremie smiled and said "Transfer Ulrich, Transfer Odd" as the scanners closed and their ID cards began to fill, "Scanner Ulrich, Scanner Odd" he added as they span and rose inside the scanners, "VIRTULIZATION" he shouted as they felt the blast of air.
(=======================================================================)
Back at the school, Sissi had done a decent job of replicating Yumi's image, she had to wear a bold cap and a shorter wig, she'd removed most of her make-up and replaced it with a paler blend, to look taller she'd put on platform shoes, and had stuffed tissues in her shirt to get the right build, she knew this was a massive risk to achieve, she quickly walked to the others in Yumi's school group, the group consisted of 12 students, 8 females including Yumi, and 8 males, many of them the warriors had interacted with other their time fighting XANA, Sissi sat down and didn't say a word, it was going well then suddenly she felt a hand on her shoulder followed by
"Yumi" she looked up to see William, "I was looking for you all over the school yard this morning" he added then he saw through the deception, "wait… who are you" he asked, Sissi hadn't meet William and thus hadn't been informed about his attraction to Yumi, "that's Elizabeth the principals daughter" said the student next to her, he had long black hair, with glasses and a stud in his right ear, "too weird" he added, Sissi wasn't having this, "first off it's Sissi, second shut up okay" she said, the kid decided to have some fun and said "okay… Elizabeth" this however resulted in Sissi punching him and knocking his glasses of his head, causing everyone to laugh.
(=======================================================================)
"just one more minute" said Aelita as the process was nearing its completion, suddenly Ulrich and Odd came running in through the tower, "AELITA NO" shouted Odd, Aelita's eyes darted towards them, "if the transfer takes place, XANA will take all of your memory" said Ulrich, Aelita was confussed but didn't know what to do, "Aelita stop everything right now" said Ulrich, Aelita decided to listen and stop the process, all of the data returned to Aelita as she closed the control window, Jeremie looked at the screen as the transfer stopped at 78, he sighed in relief, "Jeremie" said Aelita, Jeremie couldn't decide if he was happy or frustrated, "Aelita, you were so stubborn that was a stupid thing to do" he said, Aelita turned towards the others and said "I'm sorry, but I thought I was doing the right thing", Ulrich smiled and said "I'd call that human error", Yumi smiled and hugged Aelita, "I understand that and I appreciate it" she said, "you're turning into a real human being, you're beginning to confuse generosity with stupidity" added Odd, Ulrich then pointed out the elephant in the room, "anyway we still have no idea how to save Yumi" he said upset at the fact, "don't bet on that, during the transfer of Aelita's code I managed to follow XANA throw it and found the code, but to get it we have to access XANA's Memory, and how do we get access to its memory" he said, then the warriors all shouted "SECTOR 5".
(=======================================================================)
Back at the school as the photographer was setting up the camera everyone couldn't help but look at Sissi, they were persistent in asking questions, but she wasn't answering this only served to further her curiosity,
"Why are you dressed up to look like Yumi" asked William, Sissi finally broke silence and said "it's none of your business" but the kid next to her was still annoyed about being punched, "anyway that dumb haircut of yours is really old fashioned" he said, this struck a nerve, Sissi stood up shouting "I NEVER LOOK OLD FASHIONED UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING LOOKS FASHIONABLE ON ME" she shouted at him causing him to cover his face, "settle down" said the photographer, "he's right" said Sissi, but sadly this attracted the attention of her father "Yumi, is anything wrong" he said as he walked over, Sissi wasn't quick enough and didn't manage to get away before he grabbed her arm, "Yumi I'm speaking to you" he said, then the gig was up, he noticed it was Sissi, "SISSI" he said shocked "I can explain everything Daddy… darling" she replied this caused everyone to mock her comment.
(=======================================================================)
Back on Lyoko, Dallas had arrived and re-joined them as they were being transported to sector 5, whilst the Holo map changed from that of the four usual sectors to the fifth, the transport opened up and the warriors looked at the open dome, Yumi fell forward feeling queasy again, Dallas dropped to her as she used her to signal that she was okay, Ulrich and Odd moved up and got ready,
"oh by the way Yumi, without your Human DNA sequence you're just as vulnerable as Aelita, if you're hit you'll disappear forever" said Jeremie, Yumi suddenly looked worried before she whispered to Dallas, "they know" his eyebrows raised but he nodded as he shouted "ALL RIGHT LETS GET THROUGH THIS QUICK AND CLEAN, STAY IN FORMATION", the warriors quickly moved into a triangle formation with Ulrich and Odd at the front, Aelita and Yumi were in the middle and Dallas was at the back, the dome opened and they rushed along the bridge as the wall opened up, they quickly moved down the new corridor, "the countdown has started you have three minutes to get out of the core zone" said Jeremie, the warriors knew this was a delicate operation, "We need to find the key" said Yumi, Jeremie quickly typed in a frantic attempt to locate it, "at the end of the room, I've spotted the mechanism" he said as he located it, the warriors stopped as they spotted it, the room was longer and more open than ones they had previously seen, "looks like a trap to me" said Odd, Dallas looked around, "Odd stay here" said Dallas as he placed his crossbow over his shoulders, then he and Ulrich looked at the narrow path, "run or walk" asked Ulrich, Dallas thought for a second then the two quickly ran as fast as they could, suddenly a section of the roof began to descend, "shit" said Ulrich as he and Dallas dived forward avoiding the trap, "watch out" said Aelita as more sections began to fall, Odd quickly ran after them, "fuck" yelled Dallas as he and Ulrich were nearly crushed over and over again, "the whole ceiling is booby trapped" said Yumi, Jeremie looked at the timer and said "faster guys, you've only one minute left to turn the key", the roof changed its pattern of descent, instead of straight forward it began to fall at the sides as well, Odd quickly caught up behind them, "move it" said Jeremie as a pillar nearly crushed Odd, "Timber" he said as he pushed Ulrich out of the way and was crushed by the pillar, Ulrich looked at where he had stood and said "Odd", then he looked up and noticed that another pillar was falling towards him, he braced himself as he was nearly crushed but Dallas jumped and threw himself towards the key trying to curled his right leg underneath his left but he couldn't and he face planted the key, "Odd are you okay" asked Jeremie as Odd stood out from the scanners, Odd however felt weird as he fell to the ground, the roof began to raise and Ulrich was freed from nearly being flattened, "you okay" asked Yumi as she moved towards him helping him up, "good work" said Jeremie, then the wall opened up revealing a new corridor, "after you" said Dallas as Yumi, Aelita and Ulrich ran through, he quickly followed as the others stopped and watched the elevator rise, "here comes our taxi" said Ulrich, Aelita took a breath and said "we better not miss it", then as a few seconds past, she said "now" and the three jumped, but Dallas still a moment behind jumped as it ascended and extended his right arm and by extension itself his hook blade which latched onto the platform, "FUCK YEAH" he shouted as he was lifted up at the high-speed.
(=======================================================================)
The elevator stopped and Dallas climbed up as the wall opened to the balcony that sat outside sector 5, Aelita quickly ran towards the screen,
"Aelita do you know where to find Yumi's DNA sequence code" asked Jeremie, Aelita however was quickly scanning through each of the folders that appeared, "not really, but I'll manage somehow" she said, the others looked around, "Ulrich keep an eye out" said Dallas as he noticed the wall, "the flying mantas is about to hatch" said Ulrich, then they burst through the wall, "Yumi I want to apologise for this morning" he added, Yumi smiled as she turned and faced him, "thank you Ulrich, you should…" started Yumi, but one of the manta's struck her in the back knocking her off the side of the platform devirtulizing her, "NOOO" screamed Ulrich, as he looked at the Manta, Dallas's face however curled as eagle sense began to spark around his body, he dropped his crossbow and suddenly dived off the edge taking flight in purist with the blue source trailing behind him, "Jeremie tell me you got her" said Ulrich as he became worried, "yes, but the signal's degrading fast" he replied, suddenly Ulrich noticed the Manta's returning having circled the spherical structure, Dallas was quickly in pursuit, eagle sense stopped as he dropped onto one of the Mantas, he quickly smashed his tomahawk into it before jumping, eagle sense re-emerged as he took flight again, "hurry Aelita" said Ulrich one of the Manta rays fired a laser at Ulrich who blocked it with his Katanna, numerous more shots were fired as Ulrich continued to block them, suddenly one struck him in the shoulder, "that's it I've got it" said Aelita with joy, "I'm sending it to you now" she said, Jeremie quickly began typing as fast as he could trying to implement the code, with control back, he quickly launched the Over-Bike and the Over-rider, Ulrich and Aelita quickly hopped onto the Over-Bike as Dallas grabbed the baton and expanded the over-Rider, "guys get out of there" said Jeremie as they moved around the structure, "I've opened the north tunnel" added Jeremie as Ulrich and Aelita passed through the empty section, Dallas growled at the monsters before following through.
(=======================================================================)
Having passed been devirtulized, Ulrich, Aelita and Dallas stood nervously as they waited for Yumi, hoping she would emerge from the scanner,
"Okay let's hope this works" said Jeremie as he hit enter, suddenly the scanner opened and through the steam Yumi collapsed to the floor, but Ulrich didn't let her hit it as he rushed to her and stopped her, "Yumi" he said wide eyed almost as if he was gonna cry, "it's okay, she's out cold but she's hear with us" said Aelita, Dallas took a deep breath as he whistled, "that was a close one" he said as he quickly activated eagle sight before turning it off again and smiling, Yumi opened her eyes before Ulrich kissed her on the forehead, "Ulrich" she said, but he placed his finger on his mouth not wanting to ruin the moment as the two embraced each other in a hug.

Authors note
So yeah this came in short but I enjoyed it, it was open shut like the ending of season 1 chapters, but I felt there was more to expand upon here, and I felt this has been the easiest to streamline so far, well I'm certainly looking forward to the next two chapters.
