D Wolf Falls- no broken bones yet however for some reason I tend to get nervous around busy intersections well anyways thanks for reading the story.

chapter intro

Milly: welcome back to the story. Let's just get to the next chapter.

A Code Lyoko Novel
Chapter 23 the robotic dog
Time: 5 days later (after class)
Place: schoolyard
Amy's outfit: a light pink shirt and red pants.

"So what was the big deal about getting your diary back?" Jeremie asked

"A girl's diary is a very personal thing. I got my private thoughts and some secretes in there." Amy explained

"Did you talk about Lyoko?" Jeremie asked

"yes but luckily my brother did not make it to that part" Amy replied

"Don't you have a lock for it?" Odd asked

"Yes but I lost the key in my room years ago and I'm talking about my room back home" Amy explained

"well I have work to do" Jeremie said as he left.

"So how are you doing?" Odd asked

"I'm fine. It only hurts when I run." Amy replied. She then asked "Want some candy?" as she pulled a box of dots out of her purse.

"definitely" Odd replies.

Amy gives him the box and says "it's all yours I got plenty as a I'm sorry gift from my brother"

Odd then said "no offence but I really don't like your brother that much"

"He's an older brother I think it's his job to be a pest. He can be a nice person when he wants to be" Amy explained

after she says this Milly approaches them and says "I heard what happened. Are you OK?

"I'm fine it only hurts when I run" Amy explained. She then asked "so what are you up too?"

"I'm working on a news story" she replied

"what about" Amy asked

"The convention that's in town today there's going to be some interesting things there. The main attraction of the show will be this robot guard dog." Milly explained

"that sounds cool" Odd exclaimed

"Can we come?" Amy asked

"sure you can come" Milly told them.


at the convention a black gas came out of an outlet and entered a robotic dog.


"What I'm going to show you today will forever change the way you look at home security. Soon you will be seeing my K9 watchdog 4000 in every home. If you will check one of the pamphlets you can see all the amazing things this wonder can do. Now allow me to give a demonstration. The K9 watchdog 4000 remembers and stores the scents of everyone in the house. If it scenes someone who does not belong it will not only chase after them until they leave or are stopped and it's barking will alert you allowing you to be sure your home will be safe." Mr. Nale explained

"I wonder how long that took to make" Milly quietly commented to Amy

"I think it's looking at me" Amy replied

the XANA controlled dog then leapt off the platform and towards Amy, Odd and Milly

"That's not right, I seem to experiencing a minor technical problem" Mr. Nale stated

"Oh so this whole not listing and going crazy is not part of the show. That's good to know" Amy commented

She then realized it was after her but could not move fast enough and it tackled her

"Did I mention that its flat paws assure that even if it accidentally goes after someone it shouldn't they won't get hurt too badly" Mr. Nale explained

then a voice said "shut up about the dumb robot and work on making sure no one gets hurt"

"A little help here" Amy commented.

Odd then kicked the robot to get its attention.

"Don't just stand there make it stop" Amy tells Mr. Nale.

"You heard the lady, turn that crazed mutt off" the guy tells Mr. Nale

"good idea" Mr. Nale commented. He then grabbed the backup controls and entered the shutdown code.

Nothing happened and the XANA symbol appeared on the little screen on the controls meanwhile the robotic dog charged at Odd but he jumped out of the way.

"It's not working. this is not happening 20 years of work ruined. Why me" Mr. Nale complained

Amy then said "calm down and look at the positive side. It's not after you"

tired of Odd's evasion the robotic dog turns away from Odd and starts running towards Milly. When Milly sees it is now after her she panics and just screams. That's when the guy form earlier blocks its path and tackles the robotic dog.

"Be careful with my creation" Mr. Nale said in an angry tone

"Not a chance" the guy replied. He then kicks the robot as hard as he could and it gets knocked down. The robot gets back up and runs away

Mr. Nale then said "come back here. I made you"

Milly then said "thanks for the help"

he then replied "no problem" after that he asked "are you OK Amy?"

Amy then asked "how do you know my name?"

he then said "don't you recognize me. I was your teacher awhile ago"

"Sorry about that Mr. Lecodeo." Amy said.

"don't worry about it. So are you OK" Mr. Lecodeo asked

"I'm OK" Amy replied

"How did you do that" Odd asked

"It's what I do. I'm a substitute teacher who has a side job of battling malfunctioning robots. Neither of them pay enough" Mr. Lecodeo replied.

"very funny" Odd commented

Mr. Lecodeo then picked up the control and looked at it. He then said "I never seen anything like this before"

"Can I see?" Amy asked

"No problem" Mr. Lecodeo said as he handed her the control

she looks at the control and says "interesting"

Milly then looks at the controller as well. "It looks creepy to me" she tells them

"How about we just get out of here, No one likes conventions were the displays attack and besides they're closing in 10 minutes anyways" Mr. Lecodeo explains

"So that's why this place is almost empty now" Amy commented

"I can give you a ride back to the school" Mr. Lecodeo told them

"That would be good. I want to get away from here" Milly replied

they leave the building and soon notice a 7-foot tall robotic dog in the parking lot

"It looks like he went to McDonald's" Mr. Lecodeo commented.

"And why's that" Odd asked

"Because he just got super sized" Mr. Lecodeo answered

"good joke. Why did I not think of that" Amy thought to herself

"Maybe we should go back inside" Milly suggested

"good Idea" the others replied and they ran back in

Amy then said "I'll be right back I need to make a phone call"

"OK Amy." Mr. Lecodeo replied. he then said "now all we need is a jumbo sized net and a giant dog pound truck"

Amy walks quickly to the payphones and calls Jeremie. Once someone answers she asks "Jeremie is this you?"

"Who else would be answering my phone" Jeremie comments

"I'm pretty sure XANA's launched an attack" Amy explained

"What is XANA up to this time?" Jeremie asked

"he took control of a robotic dog and made it huge" Amy told him

"definitely the work of XANA" Jeremie comments

"I'm here with Odd, Milly and Mr. Lecodeo what should we do" Amy asked

"stay away form it. The return trip can't bring someone back to life" Jeremie explains

"I'll tell the others" Amy replied

"Don't mention XANA" Jeremie told her

"don't worry I won't" she said just before she ended the phone call

Jeremie then called Yumi and Ulrich and the 3 of them headed towards the factory


"Welcome back Amy. I got some good news and some bad news. The good news is he can't fit through the door. The bad news is he's breaking the wall down" Mr. Lecodeo explained

"How about we get to the other side of the building and go out the back door" Milly suggested

"Great plan Milly" Amy commented.

They then mad they way away from the entrance and towards the back of the building


"Transfer Yumi, transfer Ulrich

Scanner Yumi scanner Ulrich. virtualization" Jeremie said as he sent two of his friends to Lyoko.

IN Lyoko - forest region (LPM activated)

"The tower is this way" Aelita told them as she points down the correct path (100)

soon there are 3 roachters coming down the path towards them. Two more were coming from behind them. All 5 started to fire at Yumi she tried her best to block the shots but with shots coming from both sides the task was very hard and she was hit by 3 of the roachters shots (Yumi 70 LP). During this time Ulrich snuck up behind the pair of roachters and used his speed to slice through both of them before they could react. He then turned just in time to see one of the other roachters fire a charged shot at him and the blast hits him before he could react (Ulrich 80 LP)

"Yumi 70 life points left, Ulrich 80" Jeremie informed them.

The other two roachters are still firing at Yumi who is blocking the shots with her fan after a while she throws her fan at the roachters it destroys one of them but the other evades the attach and fires a charged shot at Yumi that hits her left leg (Yumi 50 LP)

"Yumi you're down to 50 life points" Jeremie informs her.

Ulrich then slashes through the roachter that was after him; he then throws his sword at the reaming roachter and hits his target destroying it.

"great job Ulrich" Jeremie exclaims

"thanks for the help" Yumi tells him (50)

"No problem" Ulrich tells her (80)


"I want to help the others in Lyoko" Amy whispers to Odd

"I can't let you there's no way you're going to get past that giant robot" Odd whispered to her

"If I stay here that thing will flatten me" Amy exclaimed

Odd then whispered" don't worry the others will handle things"

"What are you two talking about?" Milly asked

"Trying to figure out a way out of here" Amy replied

"We should look for a back door" Mr. Lecodeo told them

"I'm scared" Amy exclaimed

"Don't worry I'll protect you" Mr. Lecodeo told her. He then asked "do you feel better now?"

"I'll protect you as well" Odd told her

"How about me I'm scared too?" Milly asked.

"We will protect you as well" Mr. Lecodeo replied

then there was a loud noise

"Looks like the dog just let himself in" Odd commented

"Which way is the exit?" Amy asked

"This way I think" Mr. Lecodeo said as he opened a door.


back in Lyoko
life point update (Aelita 100 Ulrich 80 Yumi 50)

they were approaching the tower that was in a clearing that had 5 paths leading from it.

"Any monsters Jeremie" Yumi asked

"Yes 5 blocks are coming your way" Jeremie told them

"5 of them" Ulrich commented.

there was a block coming down every path. 4 of the blocks quickly fired at Aelita. Ulrich jumped in the way and was able to block 3 of the shots from hitting Aelita by allowing the shots to hit him instead but the other shot just missed Ulrich and hit Aelita in the leg (Ulrich 50 Aelita 90).

After that he started blocking the shots with his sword meanwhile Yumi was blocking the shots with her fan. She then asked "how are the others doing?"

"I'll find out" Jeremie tells her.

He then calls Odd.

"What do you want Jeremie" Odd says when he answers the phone.

"How are things over there?" Jeremie asked

"not good. The back of this place is like a maze and the robot is destroying the place looking for us" Odd explained

"does that answer your question" Jeremie commented

Ulrich then said "triangulate" soon Ulrich and the 2 clones are running around the block in a triangle pattern. The real Ulrich slices through the block before it could pick a target, then all 3 Ulrichs' run towards the other blocks. Two of them take there attention away form Yumi. The blocks start to fire but most of the shots miss. One shot hits one of the clones and it vanishes. Ulrich jumps on one of the blocks and stabs it with his weapon. He then jumps off. The reaming clone tries to attack one of the blocks but the block shoots the clone with its laser and it vanishes. Since the blocks were no longer paying attention to Yumi she used this to her advantage and threw her fan at a pair of blocks. the blocks were targeting Ulrich and never saw the fan coming and it sliced through both blocks destroying them both. The reaming block started to quickly fire shots at Yumi. The first two hit but after that she caught her fan and started blocking the shots (Yumi 30 LP). Ulrich then ran up to the block at quickly slashed it in half with his sword. It exploded into pixels and vanished.

"Thanks for clearing the path" Aelita tells them.

she then runs towards the tower


"The exit should be behind this door" Mr. Lecodeo tells them.

he then opens the door but instead of seeing outside all they see is that there back in the main room and the giant robotic dog is waiting for them

"Sorry wrong room" Amy says as she closes the door

"I want to go back to my room" Milly complained

the robotic dog started to punch at the wall with its paw.

"If you don't flatten us I get you a giant robotic doggy treat" Amy told it.

"This does not look good" Mr. Lecodeo commented


Aelita

Code Lyoko


everything stopped just as the wall started to crumble.

"I'm glad that's over" Amy commented

"Ready for a trip to the past" Odd asked

"definitely. I don't know about you but I'm not coming back here" Amy replied

"me neither" Odd commented


"Return to the past now" Jeremie exclaimed as the return trip started
