Chapter Eight: Virtual War
"We shouldn't have just left him there you know. We could have found another way." says Yumi as they run toward the factory
"I know but there was no other way. It was his choice anyway, we couldn't change his mind." replies Jeremy between breaths
"He'll be ok don't worry." says Aelita
"How do you know?" asks a skeptical Odd
"Some how he is connected to that dream I've been having. I don't know how but he is." replies Aelita
"How can you be sure?" asks Jeremy
"The dreams started around the time that he came here." says Aelita
"Come on we've got to hurry. We don't know how long he can hold off XANA." says Ulrich
"Ulrich's right we've got to hurry." says Yumi
With that they all speed up and reach the factory in no time.
"Everyone down to the scanners. Odd, Ulrich and Aelita first then when one of them is devirtualized Yumi goes." says Jeremy as he gets to the super calculator controls
"Right." everyone else replies as they get into the scanners
"Transfer Ulrich. Transfer Odd. Transfer Aelita. Scanner Ulrich. Scanner Odd. Scanner Aelita. Virtualization." says Jeremy as he activates the programs and sends them to Lyoko
With that the three of them are virtualized and land safely on Lyoko.
"Sorry for sending you guys so far away from the tower but it seems that the tower is guarded by what seems to be an army of monsters." says Jeremy
"This is going to be fun." says Ulrich sarcastically
"Think of it like a video game." says Odd
"Lets just go." says an annoyed Ulrich
They barely go ten steps before they are able to see the "army" of monsters.
"XANA must have sent every monster he could fit out here to stop us." says a worried Aelita
"Don't worry they're only blocks." says Odd
"Odd…There are like a hundred of them what do you mean don't worry!" yells Ulrich
"Yea so what's you're point?" asks Odd with a smile
"Triplicate," says Ulrich as he spits into three, "ok let's go. Aelita you wait here."
"Right." replies Aelita as Ulrich and Odd charge into the middle of all those blocks
"So what are we waiting for? Let's get this over with." says John
"Why are you in such a rush to die?" laughs XANA
"Who says that I'm the one who is going to die." replies John as his eyes narrow
With that John charged at XANA sword raised vertically as if to cut him in two.
"I thought this would be a challenge." mutters XANA as he prepared to punch straight through John
Just as XANA was about to punch John side stepped and swung his sword vertically.
"It won't be that easy." yells XANA as he dodged the blow
"This could take a while." mutters John with a smile
Ulrich and Odd weren't doing so well against all those blocks. Both of Ulrich's clones had been destroyed and Odd was almost out of life points.
"A video game huh." says Ulrich as he blocked the laser from one block and sent it into another
"Ok so it's not like a video game." replies Odd as he was hit and fired another laser arrow
"Odd you're almost out of life points." yells Jeremy
"How many do I have left?" asks Odd
"Twenty," replies Jeremy as Odd is hit, "Make that ten."
"That's not good." says Ulrich as he slices through another block
"Uh-oh." mutters Odd as he fires off a laser arrow at a block just as it fires at him
"Odd!" yells Ulrich
"Bye, bye." replies Odd
"I'm going to virtualize Yumi right now." says Jeremy
"Great, I need all the help I can get." replies Ulrich as Jeremy starts up the virtualization program
