Chapter 2 Explaining the Future

A.N. – So, this chapter is basically an all informational of the future that the twins come from. It won't break the infinite law of 'don't change the past as it will have drastic effects on the future'. It's more 'an event will cause it to spiral into another reality'. Let's begin.


Short Summary – The twins start explaining a grim reality of the future that they come from but refuse to say the fates of the warriors. The warriors leave in confusion, but the twins know what the fate of the world will be if they fail. But the next day, the twins mission begins.


Disclaimer – I do not own Code Lyoko or the story idea. I am just a fan of the show, and the idea was submitted by James Marshall.


Continued From Last Chapter…

"So, your guys are from the future?" Yumi asks.

"Well, yes, but we exist in both timelines, as you already know" Erina gestures her arm to Aelita.

"Well, why are you here? Obviously, it's not to save yourselves if you're alive" Odd asks.

"It's not for us, it's for the future of everyone" Erin responds.

"Let us start from the beginning," Erina starts. "As you all know, eventually Aelita will come to have us, but it wasn't until after our birth that problems began. After our birth, Xana became very active, almost like he saw a new generation of Lyoko Warriors coming, and maybe a means to an end of him. So, to stop that he became active enough to where he could conquer the Earth but keep his existence a secret."

"His plan was to get rid of you" Ulrich asks.

"And stop the rest of you from bearing children as well" Erin adds.

"Do you know our children?" Yumi asks.

The twins look at each other. "We can't say," Erina says. "He stopped the rest of you because he wearied you down to a point of physical exhaustion. Everyday there was a new attack or threat. It became to a point where Xana could put out enough to where you couldn't keep up and his existence became known, and Xana ruled where no one put up a fight. People still leaved normally, but Xana had complete control. Almost like a dictatorship, but with completely different rules."

"What's the point of you two being here?" Jeremy asks.

"We know of this reality, and we are here to stop it from happening. Call this a team up. We are here to ensure our birth, ensure anyone else from our reality, and to stop Xana. We'll be here for as long as Xana remains active" Erin says in response.

"Do we know if there even close to them?" Ulrich asks.

"Take a good long look at us" Erina says.

Jeremy takes a look at Erina, while Aelita looks at Erin. "She looks a lot like me" Jeremy says.

"Same with him, but more like me" Aelita adds.

"Well, here's something else that might surprise you" Erina says as she pulls up her Lyoko avatar outfit. Aelita takes a look at it.

"Oh my god. She has an exact copy of my avatar."

"What about your brother?" Ulrich asks, wondering if it's the same as Jeremy's.

"Completely different. We know what you're thinking. Erin's subconscious desire was completely different from Jeremy's" Erina says for her brother.

"One more question about the future, are we alive?" Yumi asks.

The twins look at each other, and the frown a little. "We again, can't tell you. It would wreck this timeline. On top of that, no one should whether or not they lived or died and if they died, how they died."

"Would tell us if we lived?" Aelita asks.

"No, it would wreck this timeline too much. Live or die, the future is really grim" Erin says.

"Well, can you at least tell us when we're expecting you too come to our world?" Aelita asks with a small smile.

"We don't know who exactly was born first. Neither you or Jeremy, or any of you told us. It probably wasn't important enough. The only thing that he told us was it was the 17th anniversary of the Battle of Hogwarts if Harry Potter was real. It was also declared the hottest day in April by the government" Erin explains.

"When was that?" Odd asks.

"May 2nd" Ulrich responds.

"In 2015. We were originally expected on May 19, but we came 17 days early" Erina adds.

"So, now what?" Yumi asks.

"We wait."

"Wait for what?"

"For Xana to become active again. Remember our birth is when he became really active, but for now we are going to secure our birth. So, you might be seeing a lot of us."

"We're fine with that" Ulrich says.

"Lyoko Warriors for life" Odd says.

They all leave in confusion. They got a lot of answers, but one question still bugged them: Did they survive in the future.

"I wish we could tell them" Erin says.

"Our mission is to save our future, not destroy it further. Telling them would cause more problems than solutions. But if we succeed, they never need to know" Erina says.

"Let's stay focused. If what Jeremy told us was real, the Xana's next attack is one where protecting Aelita is key, and we don't know when in this timeline it will happen."


The next day, Jeremy is with his future son and daughter. He wanted to spend time with them, but also, he wanted to show them what life they had built. They were passing by a new housing complex and the twins stopped.

"What's wrong?" Jeremy asks.

"This looks familiar" Erin says.

"I think this is the maze we used to travel between home and the city faster" Erina adds.

"What's down there?" Jeremy questions them.

"Nothing, just a maze of houses" Erin responds.

"Do you know what's at the other end?"

"We believe your home" Erina says with doubt.

"Well, since nothing is happening and Xana is quiet, let's explore."

Jeremy and the twins all enter the new complex. Since Jeremy never used this way, he had no knowledge of the pathway. The twins lead him through the maze of the memory they had. They made a few wrong turns, but eventually ended up at Jeremy's house.

"Well, if we didn't make all those wrong turns, we would have ended up here in record time" Jeremy says.

"Well, we have to get going. We have to operate the café. If not, it will be shut down and then we will lose contact with Xana and the supercomputer" Erin says.

With that, the twin's waved and say goodbye before heading back to Kadic.

"It's a shame that we have to cut our time short with him" Erina says.

"He will spend enough time with the current versions of us, when we are born" Erin says.

"That's if Xana keeps off Aelita. We don't know the reason behind all those false attacks. He never mentioned that happened before we made the time jump."

"Maybe, but who knows. Maybe it wasn't listed as important enough to where he didn't need to record it. Unless those attacks led to something bigger."

"And Xana has been quiet for some time now."

The twins luckily made it back in time to open and run the café. Once again, they ran it without issue. Once they closed, Erina got the alert.

"It's Xana again!" She exclaimed.

"Is this real of false?" Erin asks, when his sister phone rings.

"Hello?"

"Erina, it's Jeremy!" Jeremy says from the other end.

"Jeremy, how did you get my number?"

"Forget about that. We got problems. I'm at the factory and an alert came on and this one is real!"

"Is Aelita on Lyoko?"

"No, she's at home."

"We'll get here and make our way to the factory."

"Why? Leave her alone!"

"Jeremy, trust me! If Xana targets her, we'll never be born! WE can't take that risk. So even if you disagree with us still, it doesn't matter. We're getting Aelita!" Erina hangs up and turns towards her brother. "Let's get mom."

Erin nods and they head out, hoping Xana doesn't get to her first…


A.N. – This one is short, I know, but I'm setting it up for the action to begin. Xana's attack happens and there are still secrets to be revealed. It's looking like there could only be two chapters left, maybe three. I not sure. I just have to see how the next chapter plays out. PM me with story ideas if you have any! Don't forget to review with questions or comments! I will respond! Stay safe and healthy out there! As always, till next time! See ya! -lyokowarrior97
