Author's Note: Here we go again with another exciting installment! You
can call that sarcasm, if you like. By the way, if have been reading the
reviews, you may have noticed that one of them is entitled 'your brother'.
Well, uh, ah, it is true. That is my brother. Although I am happy he
reviewed, heck, even read my story; I am of the opinion that he gave too
much info. Well, nuff said. On with the show.

4:30 PM Lyoko's Core
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"JEREMY"
"Ahh!"
A startled Odd woke with a start. He looked like he had just seen a ghost, or in his case, had a really bad nightmare. He had hoped it was just a bad dream. Just a overactive imagination, but it was not. He almost relived what happened to his dear friend Jeremy.
"Odd! Are you ok?"
It was Yumi. He, Yumi, Ulreck, and Alieta were all in a tower. It seemed that they were waiting for him to wake.
"Yeah. I-I'm ok."
"Man, you gave us a scare. Passing out like that. We thought you were going to, uh, miss the exit."
"Thanks for caring, guys."
"No problem. Now that your awake, you need some time to rest, or can we head out?"
Odd needed a minute to think. They actually made it? That ice slide worked?
"You mean, this IS the core?"
"Not exactly. But we are in the right place."
"Yeah, I'm ready! Let's go!"
The team stepped outside the tower. As Ulreck and Odd looked around in awe, not a single one noticed that the core was looking at them. Not looking like it was, but actually was.
"Hey, Alieta, do you even know where this tower is? There are a lot of them."
"Yeah, I know where it is. It is right next to the core."
The team set off. They did not notice the 4 crabs materialize behind them. I thought they were the little brown things! Not the large red things! Then what ARE the little brown things called?
............................................................................................................
4:35 PM Some Commercial Airport Where the team lives, of course.
It is not the most pleasant sight to see. The whole main building lays in ruin. Fire rage everywhere, in some places it appears that a bomb was set off. Many people have been seriously injured and fire workers and paramedics are having trouble getting to them. Out on the runways and hangers it is the same picture. Planes have been de-winged, and in some cases, smashed to pieces. Passengers are still trapped on the planes with no wings, for the doors have been sealed.
The center of this mess revolves around one person. Xana. At the present moment, he is currently setting up a fireworks show near the re-fueling depot.
"Let's see now... What can I use as a fuse? Ah, this rope will do just fine."
"Please, let me go... I have a wife, kids..."
Xana has taken the airport security chief and tied him up. This way, he can get access to any place he wishes to go.
"Oh, shut up! I'm not going to kill you. Why? Well, it will be no fun to rule over a bunch of dead people, now wouldn't it?"
"Yeah, but...'
"SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
A beeping from Xana wrist computer interrupted their conversation.
"Oh?"
He looks at it. Then laughed!
"Man, they are getting far. Almost found a way out."
"Yay! Were saved!"
"I SAID SHUT UP! Even if they do get out, I have a nasty surprise waiting for them when they find me."
"Wh-what kind of plan?"
He told the security chief.
"Oh my god... you wouldn't. You couldn't..."
"Oh, but I can."
"You asshole!"
"I try."
............................................................................................................
4:40 PM Lyoko's Core
As the team progressed through the network of vines and towers, they came to stop at a tower that was blue.
"Ok, this is the tower."
"You sure?"
"Positive, Yumi."
"Alright then, Alieta, now what?"
"Ok, I am going to go inside and begin to reprogram the scanning program. I will not be able to help as much, and you will not be able to enter the tower while I am working."
"Sure, but what if we need to contact you or you need to contact us?"
"I be able to monitor your position and I will also contact you when I am done and ready."
"Ok, let's... Wait... do you hear that?"
As the team turned around they found themselves face to face with 4 approaching crabs. Looks like Xana was waiting for them, or was it something else?
"Oh goody. It a welcoming committee."
"Yeah! Alieta, Get into the tower and get to work! We'll hold them off till your ready."
Alieta nodded and gave the thumbs up symbol, the vanished into the tower.
"Alright you red freaks! Time for some hide and seek!"
............................................................................................................
Author's Note: Yeah, I feel like doing it different today. You'll see how.
............................................................................................................
4:50 PM Lyoko's Core (Ulreck)
As soon as Ulreck said those words, each one took off towards a different crab. As he lured his away from the tower, he made a mental note to take care of Alieta's later.
As he weaved in and out of the vines and kept turning suddenly, he found that this crab was surprisingly agile. Did Xana modify them like he did the Hornets?
The crab charged up, and right as it fired it, Ulreck jumped out of the way and darted behind a tower.
The crab followed, but he wasn't there!
"HEY UGLY!" Ulreck yelled as he jumped on top of the crab.
Then before the crab could react, he yelled "IMPACT!" and thrust his sword into the symbol. BOOM! The crab exploded into millions of pieces.
Ulreck noticed Yumi was running in complete panic and he went after her.
............................................................................................................
4:53 PM Lyoko's Core (Yumi)
Yumi was in complete panic. She attempted to destroy her crab earlier on, but, she missed and it went straight into a tower.
"How could I miss?" She though. The she heard Ulreck.
"Yumi! Yumi, need any help?"
"Yeah, my fan is stuck in a tower!"
"Hmm, I have an idea! Keep him chasing you while I set it up!"
"That shouldn't be hard!" Yumi yelled sarcastically.
As she ran, she couldn't help but wonder, what in the heck does Ulreck have planned?
She did not notice the vine underneath her. Her foot caught in the vine and she started to stumble. Seeing the chance, the crab fired off two shots. Both of which hit Yumi in the back for a total of 40 Life Points. Yumi: 40
As she fell on the floor, she noticed a flash of purple. Then, with out warning, the crab suddenly blew up.
............................................................................................................
4:55 PM Lyoko's Core (Odd)
Out of ammo. He was out of ammo. Now he had no way to kill off his crab.
That was until Ulreck told him the plan he had. He didn't believe it would work.
But it came off with out a hitch!
Now here they were taking on the final crab. Then they heard her voice.
"YES! It works! Initiating de-virtualization procedure now!"
They were each encased inside of a pillar of white light, then they were gone. The time was 5:00 PM
............................................................................................................
Author's Note: Well, they made it. They are finally free. Or are they? And even if they ARE; what about Xana? Well, your just gonna have to wait, eh?
If you are confused about the plan that happened above, here's what went down:
Ulreck saw Yumi struggling with her crab. That much you know. He said he had a plan, but truth be told, he didn't know what it was yet. Then he saw Odd's predicament. That was when he knew he had to kill two birds with one stone. Ulreck then told Odd what to do, but he left out his own role. What he had to do was to get the crab to stop long enough so that Odd's crab would collide with Yumi's. So, getting behind a tower that Yumi was getting ready to pass, he stuck out his foot, and tripped Yumi. He wasn't particularly happy in doing so, but it was the only way. He also didn't count for the crab to knock off 40 points on Yumi. Odd was a little late in getting there. But the plan did work.
There you go, what happened is written for all to see!
Next time: he's ALIVE?!? But... he CAN'T be!
Till next time, see ya!
