Chapter 6: Say Goodbye Jeremy

The four, near a large rock, started to collect themselves from the battle with the machines. "Those things were powerful." Ulrich said. "Yeah," Yumi replied, "I mean, we got rid of them. But, they were stronger then the other monsters XANA usually sends." "And, as an added bonus, we now have to fight them every time we come here." Odd said sarcastically. "What I want to know is why XANA destroyed all of the other monsters?"

Aelita asked. "Maybe he needed to get a update," Odd joked, "XANA monsters. Version 2.0."

"The real question is," Jeremy said, "is how XANA got a program for those monsters." "Do you think it has something to do with that file?" Aelita asked. "Of course," Jeremy said, "that encrypted file. It must have contained the information to create those machines digitally." "The thing is, how did he get that file?" Ulrich asked. "You're right," Aelita replied," I mean, if XANA had access to the files, why didn't he use it before?" "That could be the case," Jeremy said, "But the data was being transferred to another server, not to Lyoko." "So," Yumi said, "its like XANA got someone to get it for him, but who?"

"I don't think XANA...." Jeremy trailed off as a screen appeared on screen. "What is it?" "I just got word the elevator has been activated and has reached the scanner room," Jeremy said, "someone must be on it." "Great," Odd said, "just what we need, more people." "Hang on," Jeremy said, "I'll check the scanner room." He removed the headset and walked over to the elevator. He called it up and went down to the scanner room. As he exited the elevator, he called out, "Hello. Anyone here?" He received no answer as he walked a little further. Then, he felt a stabbing pain in his back. He tried to turn around, yet his body dropped to the floor, paralyzed.

"That was simple." Sissy claimed, extending her fingernail back into her finger. "Let's not kill time, my dear," Herb said, "lets take care of him." The two went into the elevator as Nicholas stayed behind. Herb, upon reaching the control room, opened a scanner as Nicholas threw him in. "Time to say goodbye Jeremy." Herb said as he typed in a new command. Jeremy, still in a paralyzed state, let out a the word, "Aelita." In a weak tone as his body started to become overcome by the strong energy that was coming over him.

"That should take care of him," Herb said, "how much more time do we have?" Sissy then replied, "I say about three minutes." "Very well. Just let me activate the safety program." He quickly tapped in some codes and a confirmation screen appeared. "This is the key to victory." Herb said. "I know. Let's hurry." Sissy replied. "Just setting automatic transfer command," Herb said, continuing to type, "finished. Lets go." The two went down to the scanner room to join the Nicholas. The scanners then opened and they walked inside. The doors then closed, as their bodies were overcomed by energy and beginning transported to Lyoko.
