"I can help you Jeremy," said Mimi.
"Ok, fine," sighed Jeremy. "We can meet in my room after school today, and you can help me rewrite the program." "If she messes up, I have a backup program stored on a disk," thought Jeremy.
"Party at Jeremy's," Odd said excitedly.
"Is class over yet?" asked Ulchi.
"In a couple of minutes," Ulrich replied. "I hope Ms. Hertz doesn't give out any homework today."
"She better not. It's Friday," moaned Odd.
The bell rang and everyone went out of class. Jeremy, Odd, Ulrich, Mimi, and Ulchi went to meet Yumi at the bench. Sissy was behind Ulrich.
"Ulrich dear," said Sissy. "Do you have anything to do today?"
"Yes, I do. And I have things to do over the weekend, so don't bother asking me again. Now go away."
"Hmmf, fine. What about you Ulchi? Do you have any plans?"
"Yep, and they don't include you."
"Fine, be that way."
Sissy stomped off while Herb and Nick were snickering.
"Just like I said," said Herb."
"What are you two laughing at?" demanded Sissy. "Come on, we have things to do. We can't waste our time hanging with these losers."
"Who are you calling a loser if you're one?" yelled Odd.
Odd, Ulrich, Mimi, and Ulchi started laughing.
"What was that about?" asked Yumi.
"She's bothering Ulrich and Ulchi," replied Odd.
"Hey Yumi, your parents won't mind if we go home a little bit late will they?" asked Mimi.
"I don't think so if I call them. Why?"
"I'm going to help Jeremy materialize Aelita."
"What?"
"I'm going to help Jeremy materialize Aelita."
"You know how to?"
"Well, I can, but I'll see what he's doing wrong so I can change some of the settings around."
"How do you know this stuff?"
"I know."
"I'll call Mom and Dad and tell them we'll be a couple of hours late before they get too worried."
"Okay, let's go to my room before Jim comes around," said Jeremy.
"Don't forget that it's my room too," said Ulchi.
"Oh, right."
"Okay, let's get going now."
Everyone went into Jeremy and Ulchi's room. Jeremy turned on his computer and logged onto Lyoko. "Aelita, Mimi is going to help me try to materialize you. Is that okay?"
"It's perfectly fine with me," replied Aelita.
"See, this is the program I've created so I can materialize Aelita. It took me about six months to create, but I haven't worked out all the bugs in it."
Mimi stared at the program for a while. "Let's see what you're doing wrong," said Mimi. She skimmed though the program quickly to find obvious mistakes first.
"You see here Jeremy, these numbers are wrong."
"What? How would know?"
"There was an example like this in one of the books I read. Your numbers are in the wrong place. I'll just help you rearrange it in the correct order."
Everyone looked surprise. They didn't expect Mimi to know this.
"See this part of the program? It's the virtualization code for going into Lyoko. You have to type the code backwards, and you also have to include the de-virtualization from Lyoko to the real world. Are you listening Jeremy?"
"Yea, I'm just shocked. I can't believe I missed some of this. How do you know all this stuff? Is it going to work? Is Aelita really going to appear in our world?"
"Well, she should, even for a minute, but there's something about this part of the program that I don't get. So I'm not sure if she'll be in the real world for a long period of time."
Mimi continued to work on the program to materialize Aelita. She fixed a lot of Jeremy's mistakes and added some information that will help Aelita stay functional in their world. Everyone watched while Mimi worked on the program that took Jeremy six months to create. They kept looking at her. Her face seemed glued to the screen. Her eyes were focused on the transcript of the program so she would not miss anything, not even the punctuations. Her fingers swiftly typed in anything missing or deleted useless information. She got most of the bugs out within thirty minutes. Everyone wondered how she knew this stuff.
"So she can be in the real world for a short period of time?" asked Ulrich.
Ulchi thought of her often. "She's so cute intelligent," he thought. "Look at the way she's typing. She looks so focused."
Jeremy was dazed. He was thinking about meeting Aelita for the first time in their world. "I can't wait to see her here. I have so many questions to ask," he thought. Everyone was too busy staring at Mimi to see Jeremy blush.
"Yep, as soon as I figure out the numbers and information for this part of the code she can be materialized into our world. This part that I don't get, well, that part determines the time she can be our world. If I find out and correct it, then she can be in our world permanently. She'll still be able to go to Lyoko as long as she uses the scanners to virtualize to Lyoko. Here Jeremy, you can try."
"Okay, but I don't think I can get anything. You fixed a lot of my mistakes though." Jeremy looked through his program once and saw the countless of mistakes he had made. "Umm... I don't think I can be much of a help anymore. If you can't figure out the last part of the code, well how can I?"
"Then I guess we have to do trial and error test. I corrected the entire program except for that part. I'll just put random numbers and information in for the time being. Once we figure out the correct code, we'll put it in."
"Now what do we do?" asked Yumi.
"We have to go to the factory and use the scanners to materialize Aelita from Lyoko to our world," Mimi replied.
"What are we waiting for? Let's go!" said Odd excitedly.
"What time is it?" asked Yumi.
"It's almost 4," replied Ulrich.
"Good, we have plenty of time."
Everyone went down to the sewer. They reached the factory and went to the super computer room immediately. Jeremy logged on to Lyoko. "Aelita, are you there?"
"Jeremy, have you and Mimi fixed the program?"
"We fixed most of it, but the part at the end, we couldn't figure it out.
"That's okay, we can try it anyway."
"You'll be materialized into our world, but since we didn't figure out the correct code, you're time in our world is limited."
"Aelita," said Mimi.
"Yes?"
"According to the calculations I made from the random numbers and information I typed in, you can only be in our world for a maximum of six hours a day. Once those six hours are up, you will automatically be virtualized into Lyoko. You can use the scanners to virtualize into Lyoko before your time is up. I think it'll be safer that way so no one will see you."
"Okay, I'm ready."
"I can't wait," thought Jeremy. "I bet she'll be very beautiful."
"Jeremy, will you do the honors?" asked Mimi.
"Certainly, I've been waiting for a long time to do this. Transfer Aelita from Lyoko."
Aelita disappeared from the screen. Everyone waited by the scanners to see if she would show up. A couple of minutes later, the scanners stopped humming, and the doors slowly opened. Aelita stepped out of the scanners.
"Hello everyone."
"Ok, fine," sighed Jeremy. "We can meet in my room after school today, and you can help me rewrite the program." "If she messes up, I have a backup program stored on a disk," thought Jeremy.
"Party at Jeremy's," Odd said excitedly.
