"Shoot!" she whispered. "Come on!"
She grabbed my hand and ran out the door. We got to the park when she finally stopped.
She let out a sigh of relief as she fell down.
"A lesbian?" I asked.
"Mom and mother are lesbians and they want me to be one too." Hope let out a sigh and looked up, "If they even caught me here with you…." She let out another sigh, "They'd probably make me watch that tape again and tell me how they 'saved me out of the kindness of their hearts'. It's a bunch of b.s. ya know…"
"What do you mean by 'saved'?"
"They adopted me. My real parents…..Didn't your friend call earlier?"
She changed the subject kind of fast there. Before I could say anything, my cell rang again.
"Jeremy?"
"Od, where are you?"
"At the park what's up?"
"Xana's launched another attack! He's controlling the local gang members somehow. We need you here to help Aelita."
"Okay I'm on my way." I hung up the cell, "Um Hope…"
"Go. It's okay. Your friend needs you." For the first time, I saw her smile.
"Thanks."
I ran off to the ware house and went straight to the transfer room.
When I got to Lyoko, Ulrick only had ten life points left.
"Where have you been?" He asked.
"Sorry." I didn't really feel like telling him now. "I'll explain later. Laser Arrow!"
I hit the creature dead on. Then I heard Jeremy make a weird noise.
"Is everything okay Jeremy?" Ulrick asked.
"H-how did you get hear?"
"Jeremy?" I said, but then I heard a voice that I recognized instantly.
"I was running from this psycho and I figured I'd hide in the warehouse, but then I heard something and ended up falling down that shaft. What is this place?"
"Hope?" I asked.
"Od? Is Od in that computer?"
"Who's Hope?" Ulrick asked.
"I'll explain later." I told him. "We have to find Aelita."
When we did find her, she was already out side of the tower. But there was a guy standing in front of her. He was dressed like a ninja and he had sapphire eyes and fiery red hair. He reminded me of Hope.
"Who are you?" Ulrick asked.
"None of your business kid." He answered in a hallow voice.
"He's working for Xana." Aelita said.
"Laser Arrow!" I shouted and hit him dead on with my remaining arrows. He vanished before us and that's when he said,
"I am Xana's son."
Aelita ran inside the tower as one of Xana's creatures attacked me and Ulrick from behind, wiping out our life points.
We got back to Jeremy just to see him trying to convince Hope that this was just a game. But she didn't believe him. Aelita had just entered the code when Jeremy said,
"Return to the past now."
Once again, Hope was on top of me and we were staring at each other.
"What just happened?" She asked as she sat up.
"You fell and landed on me." I told her.
"No, I mean that room in the ware house and that bright light."
"I think you were just imagining things."
"No…You don't remember it."
"Nope." I lied.
"You're lying. You do remember. What happened?"
I had to do something to distract her. I started getting nervous because I couldn't think of anything.
"Well…" She said impatiently
I did the only thing I could think of. I kissed her. She looked a little surprised at first, but then she returned the kiss. After that my tongue got a mind of its own…..
A/n: okay I think you know where this is going. So its up to you now, should I describe the kiss, or just keep moving along?
