disclaimer: I don't own Code Lyoko or Corrector Yui. It's probably better that way.

review reply-
Nobody- a 10? I personally think this story is a 8.4. As for the question I'm pretty sure the answer is yes. It depends on your meaning of "deadly encounter" but I'm pretty sure there will be. XANA's not very nice well anyways thanks for reading the story and I hope you enjoyed reading chapters 9-24.

scarf- Ok here's the next chapter. Well anyways thanks for reading the story and reviewing.

Chapter intro:
top20fan13: welcome back to the story. I'm proud to say I've updated my profile. It now has more information. Well anyways on to more important things here's the next chapter of my story.

A Code Lyoko Novel
Chapter 25 - block patrol
day: December 30th
place: school grounds

"So how was spending the holidays with Amy?" Jeremie asked Odd

"great" Odd replied. He then asked "did XANA attack while I was gone?"

"no" Jeremie replied

"well that's not a bad thing" Odd commented

"If you ask me I think XANA's up to something. I'm going to check with Aelita" Jeremie explained

"well I'll go check the vending machine" Odd replied

Jeremie did not bother to respond to Odd's comment and quickly walked to his room and logged onto his computer and connects to Lyoko.

"Hi Jeremie how are you doing" Aelita asked after her window popped up on the screen.

"I'm fine" Jeremie told her. He then asked "how are things in Lyoko"

Aelita then said "there's no activity in the polar region. Should I check the other regions?"

"OK. Just be careful" Jeremie told her

"Don't worry I will" Aelita replied

Jeremie then used his program to search for any possible XANA activity. After awhile it finds something that ranks as a 9.

Jeremie then says "this is not good"

Aelita's window then pops back up and she says "there are pulsations in the mountain region"

Odd then enters the room and asks "what's going on Einstein?"

Jeremie then says "XANA in progress of launching a big attack. Find the others and get to the factory quickly"

"you call Amy, I'll tell Ulrich and Yumi" Odd explained


8 minutes later
place: the factory

Jeremie tell the others "thanks for coming so quickly. XANA is causing problems at a chemical plant. From some test we found out in about 20 minutes he will be able to launce a highly toxic poison into the air. I'm not quite sure how fast it will spread so we need to be quick"

"Don't you think this is a little too big for us?" Yumi asked

"Yes, but with only 20 minutes left. There's not enough time left to convince the authorities and evacuate the town. The only chance of stooping this is deactivating the tower" Jeremie explained

"very well then" Yumi replied

"anyone notice Amy is not here yet?" Odd asked

"We don't have time to wait for her to show up. Just get to the scanners. I'll send Amy when she gets here." Jeremie explains.

then the others go to the scanners and enter them. Jeremie then tells them "you will be going to the mountain region"

He then says "transfer Odd transfer Ulrich transfer Yumi
scanner Odd scanner Ulrich scanner Yumi. virtualization." as he sent them to Lyoko (LPM activated)

in Lyoko (mountain region)

"you have 19 minutes left and the tower is to the north" Jeremie tells them

they start down the path towards the tower and soon run into 4 blocks

"Be careful those are freeze blocks" Jeremie warned them

"it looks like XANA is trying to freeze us in place" Odd commented

Odd then runs at the blocks and fires a pair of laser arrows at one of them. the first arrow cancels out the block's shot and the other one hits the XANA symbol destroying the block. Then the other blocks fire at Odd. He tries his best to avoid the shots but one of them hits freezing Odd in place (Odd 80 LP (180))

"Odd's out of bounds for 3 minutes. be careful" Jeremie tells the others".

the reaming 3 blocks start firing at Yumi and Ulrich. Ulrich uses his sword to block the shots while Yumi jumps out of the way, after a few jumps Yumi throws her fan at one of the blocks but it moves out of the was and just manages to evade the fan and fires a shot that freezes Yumi in place right after she catches her fan (Yumi 80 LP (180))

"Oh great now Yumi is frozen too. There are still 100 seconds left until Odd un-freezes so don't get frozen you're the only protection Aelita has left.

"what's freezing them? The abominable snowman" Amy asked Jeremie

"Where have you been?" Jeremie asked

"seeing a movie at the theater. It was almost over and I wanted to see the ending" Amy replied

"Just get to the scanner" Jeremie told her

meanwhile Ulrich had just used his triplication power and there were now 3 Ulrich and 3 freeze blocks. The blocks fire at the Ulrichs as the get closer. Most of the shots miss but one of them hits one of the clones causing it too freeze. The ice breaks a second later as the clone vanishes. The real Ulrich runs up to one of the blocks and slashes through it with his sword at the same time the remaining clone dose the same and destroys another one of the blocks. The reaming block quickly fires at the cone before it can react and it gets destroyed the same way the other clone did.


"Transfer Amy
scanner Amy. virtualization" Jeremie said as he sent her to Lyoko


while this was happening Ulrich was after the last block. He deflected its shots with his sword as he ran closer to the block. then he prepared to strike but just before he could the block fired again and froze Ulrich in place (Ulrich 80 LP (180))

Amy then gets virtualized into the mountain region

"What's with the statue collection?" Amy asked

"They're frozen. That's a freeze block its shot freezes whoever it hits for 3 minutes. Odd will unfreeze in 20 seconds Yumi in 100 and Ulrich in 170" Jeremie explains

she then quickly fired a shot at the block which fired at the same time. The shots canceled each other out and nothing happened. Amy then ran closer and tried again but the same thing happened. At the same time Odd un-froze. Once he was no longer frozen Odd looked around at saw Amy yelling at the block calling it a "big blockhead". So he quickly fired a laser arrow at it and hit his target destroying the block.

"Just 15 minutes left" Jeremie informs them.

"then what happens?" Amy asked (100 LP)

"XANA will be able to release major toxins into the air" Jeremie explains

"that stinks" Amy replied

"We must get to the tower quickly" Odd her.

Then Amy, Odd and Aelita started running towards the tower

"Yumi's still frozen for another 30 seconds and Ulrich about 2 minutes." Jeremie told them

"then I guess I'll protect Aelita" Amy replied (100)

about a minute later they are approaching the tower which was being guarded by another 5 freeze blocks.

"With all these ice enemies you would think XANA was trying to make a new polar region" Amy commented (100)

"stay here and protect Aelita. I'll take care of the blocks" Odd told her (80)

"be careful" Jeremie told him.

Odd then ran towards the blocks and fired 4 quick shots. 2 of them missed and another got canceled out by the blocks shot but the other shot hit one of the blocks and destroyed it. Two of the blocks start firing at Odd while the other two head towards Amy and Aelita. Odd jumps out of the way of one of the shots and into another and becomes frozen again (Odd 60 LP (180))

"Will you please stop getting frozen" Jeremie complained

Amy vs. Freeze block

"talk about un-even odds" Amy complained.

She then points her wand at one of the blocks and destroys it. The other 3 then fire shots at Amy who panics and does nothing. At the last second the shots are blocked by a fan. Amy turns around and sees Yumi there.

"Thanks for the help" Amy told her

"You're welcome" Yumi replies.

She then throws a well-aimed shot that goes through 2 of the blocks destroying them both.

Amy then saw the remaining block prepare to fire at Yumi so she used her wand to put a shield around Yumi. The blast hit the shield and was absorbed into it. Amy then made the shield go away and then said "you take care of the block, I'll protect Aelita". she then turned around and saw a crab appear behind Aelita. .

She then quickly ran in between Aelita and the crab as it began to fire a barrage of lasers. Amy was about to use her wand when one of the lasers hit her arm causing her to drop her wand (Amy 90 LP). The crab continued to fire quickly and Amy was forced to choose between going after her wand and protecting Aelita, not wanting to make Jeremie mad she chose to protect Aelita. the crab fired 7 more shots. The first two missed, the next 3 hit Amy, the 6th shot just missed, and the 7th one hit Amy as well (Amy 50 LP). At that time Ulrich jumped on the crab and attacked it with his sword. He then jumped off it and the crab exploded into pixels and vanished.

"Thanks for the help" Amy told him

meanwhile Yumi threw her fan at the final block and destroyed it with a well-aimed shot.

"Let me guess. I have 50 life points" Amy commented

"That's correct" Jeremie told her. He then said "your teamwork was wonderful today"

"you all did great" Aelita commented (100). She then ran towards the tower and entered it

"Only 2 minutes left" Jeremie commented.

Aelita walked to the center of the tower and floated up to the next level. She then put her hand on the screen

Aelita

Code Lyoko

Jeremie then said "return to the past now"

End life point totals (Aelita 100 Ulrich 80 Yumi 80 Odd 60 Amy 50)
