Ch.6—Strange Happenings

"Odd!! Odd wake up!"

His eyes slowly opened, and he caught a glimpse of light.

"Odd, are you okay?" Yumi was standing over his head.

"Wh-what happened?" Odd mumbled.

"That's a good question, Odd. Care to answer it?" Jeremy asked,

"I....I don't remember anything. Where am I?"

"You're in the infirmary room. Ms. Dorothy just left." Ulrich answered.

"Aelita brought you here after finding you unconscious in your room." Jeremy smiled at Aelita.

Aelita smiled back. "I was just worried if you were hurt, Odd. Thank goodness you aren't though."

Odd sat up in the bed. What happened? he thought. He couldn't remember anything.

Yumi was still standing over him.

"Odd, are you sure you're okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine Yumi. Thanks. I'd just like to go back to my room now."

As Ulrich led him back there, Yumi, Jeremy, and Aelita stood outside the clinic's doorway, watching them go.

Yumi: I wonder what happened.

Jeremy: He was just unconscious on the floor. Isn't that right, Aelita?

Aelita: Of course Jeremy. I ran straight to you guys when I found him there.

Yumi: You think Xana's behind this?

Jeremy: Lets hope not.

Aelita looked away from the two. Her eyes held a secret that only Odd knew about. That is, if he could remember.

Back at the room

Ulrich opened the door for Odd and sat him on his bed. He then closed it, and seated himself next to Odd.

"Odd. What happened? You can tell me, don't worry," Ulrich asked with a look of concern.

Odd's head was bowed down; he looked at the carpet on the floor.

"I wish I knew, Ulrich."

"You mean, you really don't know?"

"Of course not. I wouldn't lie to you."

"Well, what was the last thing you remember?"

He looked up at Ulrich, then saw the computer behind him. It was still on.

"EVIN!"

Ulrich stared at Odd's alerted face; he had no clue what he was talking about.

"Who's Evin? Odd, what're you doing??"

He had gone to the computer, and was yelling something into the mike.

"Evin, are you still there? Answer me!"

No answer.

"Odd, would you mind filling me in? What's going on with you?"

Odd looked back at Ulrich. He turned his chair around and started to explain.

Odd: "Do you remember how I'd always lock the room, and make you leave?"

Ulrich: "Yeah, how could I forget?"

Odd: "Well, the reason I did that was so you wouldn't find out...find out...

Ulrich: "Find out WHAT?"

Odd: "That I had a girlfriend..."

Ulrich: "Huh?!? Wait, when did this happen?"

Odd: "Evin. Her name is Evin, and she went to our school a little while back. She was at our school dance once. While you and Yumi were busy dancing, I had left Jeremy to go and find some food."

Ulrich: "Typical."

Odd: "Anyways. I found this gorgeous, eye-stunning, mind-blowing, beautifully & elegantly made piece of cherry pie!"

Ulrich: ....

Odd: "Oh, and I also saw this really pretty girl, too."

Ulrich: ...............

Odd: "I asked her to dance with me, but she said she'd rather eat. I fell in love with her at that very second!!"

Ulrich: "So now she's your girlfriend? Isn't that pleasant."

Odd: "Oh, it is Ulrich. You don't understand. We were made for each other! So yeah. Earlier today I was talking to her online. That's when...hmm...interesting."

Ulrich: "What is?"

Odd had just remembered everything. It was as if lighting had struck his very head, and shocked him with reality. But instead of spilling the beans to Ulrich, he kept quiet. Xana had regained control of his mind.

Ulrich: "Odd...you said 'interesting'....what's interesting?"

Odd: "I don't remember anything after that. I don't remember anything at all."

Ulrich sat there, puzzled as ever. What was going on with Odd? He doubted it was a Xana attack, since pulsations weren't felt on Lyoko. Not to mention, there was no activated tower. Still, Ulrich kept his guard on, and watched everything around him; closely, yet cautiously.

If you wanted to know how Evin switched schools, it was b/c of her parents. Her dad had a job transfer, and they moved to another town. Odd is hoping she'll come back due to her dad's job; he might have to be transferred back soon. Who knows? Maybe she will come back! ;)
