A/N: Okay, here is where the story starts.
DISCLAIMER: Yeah, yeah, yeah you heard it before I don't own Code: Lyoko or any of the characters, blah, blah, blah.
Some time later at Kadic---
"Ulrich, come on! Wake up or you're going to miss out on breakfast." Odd said as he stood over my bed examining me. I hate to admit it but he was right for once. Usually, I would be the one telling him to get up but I guess that's not the case today. I rolled over and leaned on the edge of my bed when I felt a sudden rush of liquids churn in my face. I gave out a low moan.
"Hey, Ulrich, you don't look so good. Do you feel okay?" Odd inquired as I rubbed my hands over my nose and eyes.
I replied, "Ugh, I don't know. I didn't get very much sleep last night and it wasn't because of your snoring this time. I don't know what kept me up but I think I'm just tired." 'Odd's probably thinking that I stayed up all night thinking about Yumi. Not that I don't do that but I always make sure that I get a decent night's sleep when I do.' I thought getting my clothes on.
Trying to cheer me up Odd smiled and blurted out, "Well, whatever your deal is you can always sleep during class." I let out a little laugh but stopped because it was starting to hurt.
The truth is I didn't feel good. I felt sick. As I exited our dorm I found out that I could barely stand on my own weight but I kept on walking. Unknowingly, I brushed up against the wall in the hallway thinking that I was going straight. Odd put his hands on my shoulders to steady me and told me to go to the infirmary. 'That's twice today that Odd was right. I must be sick; very sick.' With that thought I managed to make my way to the infirmary.
As I pushed the door to the infirmary I was greeted by the nurse. 'I've been in here so many times I guess she could consider me a regular.' I thought breathing heavily. "Hi."
"What seems to be the problem, Ulrich?" She said and I told her my symptoms which were that my head is pounding and my entire body feels like it's going to collapse. She led me to the first bed and I sat down then she did her usual routine testing.
About ten minutes later she came out from her office. "Well, it looks like you are sick because of a virus that you caught. You're also starting to look pale."
"A virus?!" I shouted interrupting her and then I hunched over and coughed.
The nurse continued, "Yes, you have a virus, Ulrich. Now, here's what I want you to do: go back to your dorm and get lots of rest, drink plenty of water and check in with me everyday until you get better. A virus isn't like the common cold, you see. Your body has to get ride of it on its own. I'm sorry but I can only give you medicine for your symptoms; there isn't anything for the virus so you'll be out for a while, probably the rest of the week." She handed me two capsules and a cup of water. "This will help your head and make you a little sleepy. You look like you need some rest. The pills should wear off in eighteen to twenty-four hours." I swallowed the pills and she told me to go back to my dorm and rest.
As I walked back to my dorm I couldn't help but reflect on what happened this morning, 'Man, this crazy. First, Odd says something right and then I come down with a virus. What a day. Now would be a very bad time for X.A.N.A. to attack. I hope Yumi doesn't worry about me. I'm only going to be sick for a few days. It's not like I'm going to die or something.' I made my way back to my bed and pulled the covers over my aching body and tried to get some sleep.
