.Chapter 3

In Xana's base Xana sat in a dark chair looking at a virtual supercomputer that was the only light in the room." I never thought it would be this hard, they have not yet decided whether to agree to my demands' he said to somebody in the shadows. A pair of eye's that glowed a yellowish tone watched and the creature stepped out of the shadows. It looked like a girl about fourteen, had blue hair tied in a ponytail, gray skin, wore brown trench coat, and clawed hands." They are determined to get their friend back and cure Aelita" she said in a not too high, not too low voice." They will fight not him, at least I know Yumi won't, she stood perfectly still when she saw him, she will do anything to get him backs don't worry about it Elsa" said Xana.

In Kadic Jr. School Odd and Jeremy entered while the teacher was calling out names when she asked" Odd, Jeremy do you know where Ulrich is?" "He is sick Mrs. Hertz" said Odd. Meanwhile Yumi was in her class, she sat there gloomy thinking about Ulrich. As soon as class was over Odd and Jeremy met Yumi, sat down on their bench and discuss their strategy. Out of nowhere Sissy came by" Where is Ulrich I really like to see him" she said in her obnoxious voice. " He's sick but wouldn't go see him if I were you, you might make him barf" said Odd." Why you, humph," she said and stomped away." Thanks Odd" said Yumi who hadn't said a thing said a thing since the last trip to Lyoko. "Jeremy I think I might know where Ulrich is" said Aelita who just appeared on the screen. "Where?" said Yumi anxious." I think there might be a fifth region in Lyoko, it might be where Xana is hiding too" said Aelita." Okay let's get to the factory" said Jeremy. They arrived at factory, Yumi and were virtualized into the forest region, and met Aelita." Okay Aelita where is the region?" said Yumi." Follow me we have to get a deactivated tower, we can get to the region through the data stream" said Aelita and they took off in hurry.

Back at Xana's base Xana heard the whole and sensed the transfer" So they think they can come here and take me down?' he said." I can stop them now" said Elsa." No let them come, let them make the first move, in the meantime proceed to phase three, prepare a welcoming comity if they get here, and alert Ulrich and my monsters" said Xana smiling at the computer screen showing the Lyokians heading towards a tower. " I would like to speak to Aelita, separate them when they come, send Ulrich after Yumi; you can deal with Odd" said Xana." As you wish master" said Elsa and bowed then left the room.

Xana then started typing on the keyboard on the computer" Good everything is ready" said Xana with an evil smile. Then a crab appeared on the screen" Commander prepare your forces, when the enemy arrives separate them and make sure they are all apart, remember I want Aelita alive, and when phase three is initiated make sure all forces are gathered for a full frontal assault, take as many hostage as you can, and destroy any resistance" said Xana. After the crab disappeared from the screen Xana then smiled evilly. He was ready to destroy his enemies once and for all. But he would have to wait.

Yumi, Odd, and Aelita arrived at a tower prepared to enter the data stream" Be careful guys, your heading into Xana's territory, who knows what he's planning" said Jeremy from the computer." Relax Einstein we've whooped Xana before and we can do it again" said Odd." Ready?" said Aelita" Let's go" said Yumi. They entered the data stream and followed Aelita until they entered a portal, and fell through it. They fell onto the ground of a misty region." So this is the fifth region?" said Yumi looking around." Yes it should be" said Aelita looking through the mist." I can't see anything through this mist" said Odd. While the gang looked around they heard something" This way" said Aelita and they started running. The mist grew thicker and gang could see clearer, they stopped when they saw a giant metal dome. "This must Xana's headquarters" said Odd. Suddenly a laser shot right past them, they saw about five roachters, ten crabs, three hornets, two blocks, and one megatank." Watch it" shouted Odd as the monsters fired again, Yumi threw her a fan and took out block, Aelita took out her sword and charged at the roachters, Odd fired his arrows taking out one crab, two hornets, and the last block. Yumi jumped and threw her fan at a crab, Aelita just took out the roachsters and headed to help Yumi take out the crabs, the megetank charged and fired its laser at Odd, and Odd jumped up and fired his at the Xana symbol destroying the megatank. Yumi and Aelita just took out the crabs and headed for the dome, Odd was about to catch up when a girl appeared and punched him knocking him down." You might want to keep your eye's open cat boy" said the girl. "Thanks for the advice now it's my turn" said Odd getting up" Let's go" he shouted and the two charged at each other weapons ready.
