Disclaimer: I don't own Code: Lyoko or anything related to it. I'm just a crazed fan writing a fic. Got a problem with that?

Muhaha! I'm on a writing spree. Enjoy this last free chapter! Read and review.

Chapter 4: Waiting

Later that day

In Jeremie's class

"Students! We have a new student. This is Aelita Lyoko. Aelita, go sit next to Jeremie. Oh and Jeremie, do you know where your friends Ulrich and Odd are?" Mrs. Hertz said.

"They're very sick, and their parents took them home," Jeremie answered.

"Oh my dear Ulrich! I have to go nurse him!" said a familiar high–pitched voice. It was Sissy.

"Sissy, I think he's better off without you. After all, your bad vibes might give him a worse disease, like Sissy–phobia," Jeremie smirked.

"...That was so immature I don't even know what to say!" Sissy said, disgruntled.

"That's because you never think," Jeremie retorted. The whole class burst out laughing. Aelita winked at him. He grinned. Finally, Aelita was here in the real world again. Jeremie exchanged a quick glance with Aelita and returned his attention to the board where Mrs. Hertz was teaching them on gravity.

In Yumi's class

"Quiet, you idiot children! We have a new classmate. She's Fianna Langley. Fianna, choose a spot, any spot," said Yumi's teacher. (If anyone knows her teacher's name and tells me, I will be most grateful.) Fianna slipped into the seat next to Yumi and asked, "Is it always such a racket here?"

"Yup. Sometimes louder," Yumi smiled.

"I'm going to go deaf. My hearing is especially sensitive," Fianna winced.

"Idiot children!!! Please get out your textbook and read pages 276–280," yelled the teacher.

"Does he always address us as idiot children?" Fianna asked.

"Nah. Only in a bad mood, or when there is loud talking in class," Yumi replied. "Miss Ishiyama and Miss Langley, do you have something to tell the class?" the teacher asked icily.

"No, she was just telling me about the class," Fianna said promptly.

"Well, I do. Shut up please! Thank you," Yumi said to the now silent class.

"Well then, back to your textbooks please..."

Two weeks later: outside

"Well the new scanner's done, and we have a four–day weekend. What better time to launch a rescue?" Jeremie stated.

"Yeah. Odd's probably wondering why we haven't come..." Yumi drifted off.

X.A.N.A.'s headquarters

Odd gazed about his room. It was driving him crazy. It was green with purple X.A.N.A. symbols everywhere. He wondered, 'Where in the world could the others be? Why won't they come? Maybe they are building a new scanner for Fianna or something.'

At that moment, a robot came in. "Odd, sir, the master wishes for you to dine with him."

"Whatever. Tell him that I don't want to," Odd snapped.

"Then sir, we will have to force you," the robot replied politely.

"Fine. Tell him I'm coming," Odd said.

Muhaha! Odd is X–Ulrich's prisoner, and the rest of the Lyoko team is now ready for the rescue. I dedicate this chapter to my seventh grade teacher, Mrs. Taylor. She is the person I based Yumi's teacher on. She used to call us idiot children too... Enough reminiscing. Review!!!
