X.A.N.A.'s last attack chapter 8: X.A.N.A.'s defeat? The End?
"YOUR FRIENDS SHALL DIE AND YOU WILL PERISH IN LYOKO!" X.A.N.A. yelled triumphantly.
"What!?" Jeremy asked fear flooding his body.
"He's gonna destroy us using gravity!" Yumi yelled.
The two friends stood there stupefied. "Jeremy isn't there anything you can do?" asked Yumi quickly. "Well..." began Jeremy. "I could lock everyone in Lyoko... but that would be a death sentence for Scorch and Ulrich. As Jeremy said this Od burst into the room.
"Hey Jeremy!" Od said in a teasing tone "Look who's here!" he said as he led the recently materialized Aelita into the room.
"Jeremy!" Aelita called grinning as she ran to him. She reached him and gave him a big hug. Jeremy caught completely off guard did nothing but enjoy her warm embrace. As she let go Jeremy was left blushing but, quickly snapped back to reality.
"I'm glad to see you out of Lyoko at last but now's not the time. X.A.N.A. is getting ready to attack us using gravity." Jeremy said. "I can't keep him from doing it but I can slow him down." Jeremy sat back down at the super computer and began typing away.
"Wait Jeremy! I can help!" Aelita said, wishing to be of some help.
"Good! Grab my computer out of my backpack and plug it into that outlet over there!" Jeremy said quickly. "We have little time left before he attacks!"
"Can I help in any way?" asked Yumi
"If you can find another computer. We definitely need your help. Two of us aren't enough to stop X.A.N.A.'s expert hacking skills. Find another computer while Aelita and I stall him." Jeremy responded.
"I think Scorch may have a laptop in his backpack. He left it near the scanners, I'll go check." Yumi said.
After Yumi left the room Aelita began to speak to Jeremy. "I'm glad to finally be in the real world with you Jeremy." She said as she began to help Jeremy using his laptop. "I want to know what your plan to stop X.A.N.A. is."
"Well..." began Jeremy. "You and I will keep X.A.N.A. from manipulating gravity. Then as soon as Yumi finds another computer she will take Scorch and Ulrich out of Lyoko. Then you and me will cut off all of X.A.N.A.'s routes used for hacking." "Sounds like a good plan Jeremy." Aelita said honestly. "It should work if nothing goes wrong..."
"Hey! What am I gonna do?" asked Od.
"You should help Yumi find another computer." Jeremy said quickly.
Back in Lyoko the situation remained the same. Ulrich had thirty five life points, Scorch had thirty and X.A.N.A. had seventy six.
"We're getting nowhere fast Ulrich." Scorch said. "We can't give up though. We just have to see what X.A.N.A.'s next move is gonna be. So what's it gonna be X.A.N.A.?"
"ARGH!!!" X.A.N.A. cried out as if in pain. "YOUR FRIENDS ARE KEEPING ME FROM MANIPULATING GRAVITY! THAT WON'T SAVE YOU TWO THOUGH!!!"
X.A.N.A. advanced towards Ulrich. "I'LL TAKE YOU OUT FIRST." And he swung his sword quickly at Ulrich's head. Ulrich dodged the blow but was still cut a little.
"Ulrich! You're down to twenty five life points!!!" Jeremy yelled.
"X.A.N.A.!!!" Scorch yelled. "Your battle is with me now. Draw your blade and fight!!!"
Scorch charged at X.A.N.A. blade raised and brought it down as hard as he could. X.A.N.A. deftly blocked it and laughed mockingly. "YOUR FEEBLE SKILLS ARE NO MATCH FOR ME!" X.A.N.A. took a big swipe at Scorch and his blade was inches away from Scorch's throat as he dodged.
Back in the real world Yumi ran as fast as she could to the control room with Scorch's laptop. "Jeremy! I have his laptop!" Yumi called.
"Great Yumi! Plug it in to this port and try to retrieve Ulrich and Scorch. You have been reading my notes right?" Jeremy said.
"Yes I have been reading your notes. I think I can do this." Yumi said nervously.
"Yumi don't worry, you can do it!" Od said smiling.
"I sure hope so..." said Yumi as she got to work.
"Ulrich! Scorch! Yumi has the computer! You should be out soon just hang on a bit longer!!!"
"I don't know how much longer I can hold out." Said Ulrich.
"Yeah! Take Ulrich first. He has lower life points!" Scorch yelled.
Yumi began to type as fast as she could, thinking that X.A.N.A. could strike down Ulrich at any minute. She saw she was getting so close to retrieving him. Just one thing and...
"Done!!!" she yelled out happily.
"All alone now..." Scorch said with dismay.
"Scorch!" came Yumi's voice. "I'll have you out in a couple more seconds!"
"No..." said X.A.N.A. in a normal voice. His powerful voice was gone. He finally realized all hope was lost. His piercing evil eyes began to glass over. It seemed as though something died within him.
"...X.A.N.A....he's..." Scorch felt for the first time a little sorry for the evil super computer.
".........I concede to you. You win. Aelita, Jeremy, Od, Ulrich, Yumi and..."
"Scorch"
"Well... you have won on this day. I cannot keep you from leaving. I cannot prevent you from locking me out. Mark my words though... I will come back."
As Scorch watched the mad computer he began to return to the real world. The last thing he saw was X.A.N.A.'s evil piercing eyes as he called out "I WILL RETURN!!!"
As Scorch returned to the real world, everyone cheered as loud as they could.
"It's finally over." Said Yumi as she clung to Ulrich.
"I'm glad everyone came out alright in the end." Said Ulrich.
"I'm glad we can all be united again, and we can finally live in peace in the real world." Said Aelita.
"Well we finally did it..." said Jeremy. "And I thought we were doomed."
"We can't let our guard down though. X.A.N.A. will be back. He said he would." Said Scorch sadly.
"Well we can worry about that later. We won for now!" said Od. "This calls for a party."
The next day...
A small party was held in Od and Ulrich's room. Everyone who had helped to destroy X.A.N.A. the previous day was there, as well as Od's "good" friend Samantha. There were plenty of drinks and food, but they wouldn't last to long with the way Od was eating. Everyone was talking with one another and generally having a good time. Summer would start in one week so everyone was light hearted with no worries at all.
"So Jeremy what are you gonna do over the summer? Asked Od.
"Well we need to extra scanners... so I think I'll try and build them." Jeremy replied.
"You have any plans Ulrich?" asked Yumi.
"Well not yet..." Ulrich replied quickly.
Yumi then turned to see Scorch sitting in the corner, very quiet. As she saw him sitting there she thought how being quiet was so unlike him. She approached him but then stopped as Ulrich asked her to dance. She looked at Scorch quickly then agreed to dance with Ulrich.
Scorch felt awful. He had no idea why, but he did. Why do I feel so bad? He thought to himself. He had made many new friends, helped save the world, and summer started in one week. He thought more to himself as he watched Jeremy and Aelita dancing. He took another sip of his drink, deep in thought as he turned his attention to Od and Samantha. Then he turned his attention to Ulrich and Yumi.
It felt good to help his new friends save the world. Why did he feel so bad? As the song ended, Scorch stood up to get another drink he glanced at Ulrich and Yumi and saw them kiss...
He filled his cup with more orange soda as Od walked up to him. "Well... If it isn't the human garbage disposal." Scorch said. He thought a conversation with Od would lift his spirit.
"Ha ha ha." Od fake laughed. "You should be a comedian." he said as he chugged a can of pop. "Why have you been so quiet tonight Scorch? You haven't been this quiet since I first met you on the first day of school."
"I don't know..." said Scorch. "All I know is..." he turned to look at Yumi and Jeremy talking. "I'm ready for a vacation."
"Well it's just your luck that summer is just a week away!" said Od with a grin.
"Yeah... just my luck..."
Everyone continued to enjoy the party, while Scorch remained deep in thought. "Well one thing is for sure." Scorch said. "This isn't over yet X.A.N.A...."
"YOUR FRIENDS SHALL DIE AND YOU WILL PERISH IN LYOKO!" X.A.N.A. yelled triumphantly.
"What!?" Jeremy asked fear flooding his body.
"He's gonna destroy us using gravity!" Yumi yelled.
