Third chapter. Thank you to all eight of you who reviewed. I don't own anything mentioned in the story.

He was floating somewhere. It resembled the inside of a tower in Lyoko, but when he looked down, he was wearing his normal clothes. "Where am I?" He wondered aloud, looking around. Naturally, he received no answer. He looked around again, then tried taking a step foreword. Instead of moving in front of him, he began descending towards the platform below him. "So this is what it feels like..." he mused as his feet touched the platform. The lights had been on before, but as soon as he touched the first ring, it went out. He began walking toward the entrance of the tower. As the last ring went out, the tower wall in front of him started rippling.
And then Samantha came through.
In Odd's opinion, she looked beautiful. Her hair was the same, except the once red streaks of hair on either side of her head were now blue. She wore a blue body outfit, with a paler blue belly shirt and short skirt over it. A blue headband was worn under her hair, and a spiked dog collar was placed on her neck. In her left hand she carried a mace.
"Sam... What are you doing here?" Odd asked as she started walking toward him. In response, she slung an arm around him and kissed him soundly on the lips. He was shocked for a moment. What was going on? Eventually his better judgment gave away and he began to kiss her back. The moment he did, she disappeared.
"Wha-..? Sammie?" Odd said as he waved his hand through the space where she once was. There wasn't anything there. All of a sudden, her heard a voice come out of nowhere. "Bring her here..." It whispered. Another voice echoed back. "Bring her here..." Another voice answered. Soon the tower was filled with the repeating statement. "Bring her here..."
Odd looked around trying to search for the source of the voice. "Xana! What are you up to?"
"Bring her here..."
"Why? So you can do something terrible to her?"
"Bring her here..."
"No! I won't let her get in danger!"
"Bring her here..."
"Ulrich doesn't like her!"
"Bring her here..."
The voices echoed off the tower walls. Odd shook his head desperately, trying to clear it. All of a sudden, the voices stopped. Just like that.
How odd...
odd...
Odd...
"Odd!"
"Huh?" Odd jolted awake to find himself in math class, surrounded by kids laughing at him. "Settle down class, settle down. Now Odd, I asked you a question. And like all questions, it needs an answer."
Odd blushed and looked behind him to find Yumi, Jeremie, and Ulrich snickering at him. He glared at them, then turned around and looked up at the math teacher. "Um...what was the question again?"
The teacher sighed. "If the radius of a circle is seven centimeters, first tell me the diameter, then the circumference."
Odd sat there for a moment, having no idea of the answer, but pretending to be thinking.
"Um...the diameter is fourteen, and the circumference is...thirty-one?"
Everyone started laughing again, as Odd sank down in his seat.
"Yumi?"
"Forty-three and ninety six hundredths, professor."
"Very good, Yumi."
Odd put his head on the desk.
-------Later-------
"Geez, Odd, what's wrong with you? You seem out of it. More out of it than usual." Ulrich commented as the group walked out together. Odd shrugged.
"I got back late last night. It took me almost twenty minutes to sneak past Jim."
"Odd, where did you go after you left?" Yumi asked, sitting down on a bench. Ulrich frowned and sat down next to her.
"Hey, what's going on?" Jerimie asked.
Odd sighed. "You remember Samantha, right?" Jerimie nodded.
"Well, lets just say she needs help."
Sissi was a couple meters away. She was planning on going over and talking to Ulrich, but she heard them talking. Who is Samantha? She asked herself, edging closer, but still staying hidden behind a tree."
"She's a liar and a thief. I don't know how these two like her." Ulrich spat, gesturing to Yumi and Odd.
So, there is one thing Yumi and Ulrich don't have in common...Sissi thought.
Jerimie shrugged. "I think she's ok. Like Odd said, she just needs help."
"Oh great! Now you're turning on me too!"
"Hey. Guys." Odd interrupted. "Today, in math class, I had the weirdest dream." he leaned a bit closer. "I dreamed I was floating in Lyoko. In a tower, but I had my normal clothes on. I started floating down to the platform, and when I got there, the rings went out. Then Samantha came through the tower wall..." he blushed at the memory." But she disappeared. Then I heard a whole bunch of voices saying, 'Bring her here.' then I woke up."
"Wow... interesting." Yumi said, looking up at him. "Do you think we sho-"
"No!" Ulrich shouted. "I told you, I don't trust her. Besides, it was only a dream."
"Ulrich is right." Jerimie nodded. "It was probably just a reflection of Odd's sleepless state and the last person he came in real contact with. Besides, we can't trust anyone with this."
Odd sighed, knowing he was defeated. He took a seat next to Ulrich. It was then Sissi decided to make her entrance.
"Ulrich, dear, you never told me about a Samantha. Who is she?"

Oh yeah. Here's a short preview of the next chapter: "You think I'm Gay!?"
