The Secret

The next day before school everyone meets in Jeremy's room.

"So why are we here again?" asked Odd.

"Dave has something to tell us," said Jeremy.

"Well what is it?" asked Odd.

"Well, One week ago I witnessed my parents deaths. These weird creatures killed them. They looked a lot like the Grim Reaper, but they had glowing red eyes and could form scythes from thin air," said Dave.

"So how does that explain your glowing blue eyes?" Jeremy interrupted.

"Well when I ran from my house I fell into a ditch and the creatures followed me. They sliced into my stomach and left me to die. I then saw another one it came over to me. This one had blue eyes instead but looked exactly the same. It did something to me and then said it gave me a power," said Dave.

"Hmm, strange creatures giving people powers," said Jeremy.

"Hey, we got ours back, maybe the same thing happened to us in our sleep," said Odd.

"No Odd, you guys didn't get your powers till sometime after Dave got his," said Jeremy.

"How do you know?" asked Odd.

"Because as soon as I connected with Lyoko Yumi and Ulrich did weird things, and you had a vision at lunch which I should have been suspicious about but wasn't," said Jeremy.

"Do you know where these creatures are from?" asked Yumi.

"No, I never saw them before, they kept asking my dad for this secondary protocol," said Dave.

"Well if this secondary protocol is so important then why don't you just give it to them," said Odd.

Everyone looks over at Odd and glares at him.

"Odd these things have already killed more people on school grounds. Why do you want to help the enemy," said Ulrich.

"Well maybe if they got the protocol they would go away," said Odd.

"No I doubt that," said Jeremy.

Jeremy turns to his computer and starts to scan for activated towers in Lyoko.

"So Dave, what is your power?" asked Aelita.

"Honestly I have no clue," said Dave.

"Well it seems that every time someone dies your eyes light up blue," said Ashley.

"So that means that you can sense these things coming," said Yumi.

"Then why can't you stop them from attacking?" asked Naomi.

"Naomi how long have you been here?" asked Odd.

"Long enough. You should really keep it down I can hear you guys even with the door closed," said Naomi.

"To answer your question he can get rid of them but he can't control his power," said Ashley.

"How do you know that?" asked Yumi.

"Well I saw him use some sort of energy on the one that attacked the student last night," said Ashley.

"So all we have to do is teach him how to use his power," said Yumi.

Dave's eyes start to glow blue.

"It's happening again," said Aelita with a scared tone.

"You guys better leave now," said Dave.

They all scrambled into the hallway to de surrounded by Creepers.

"I was wondering when we would get this chance," said a Creeper.

"Shut up we are only here to get Dave," said another.

"I'm right here," said Dave.

"Dave no, don't let them take you," said Ashley.

"Well if I go with these guys then maybe they will leave you guys alone," said Dave.

"Good thinking but we will kill the rest of your friends later," said the Creeper.

The Creeper grabbed Dave and all of a sudden blue electricity erupted around him. He was sealed in a glowing ball of blue energy; most of the Creepers instantly dissolved into black ashes. But one Creeper got away. The ball around Dave disappeared and he fell to the ground.

"DAVE!" yelled Ashley.

She rushed to his side. He was breathing heavily and seemed to be totally wiped out.

"Ulrich come with me we will follow it," said Yumi.

"Naomi stay here with Ashley and help Dave, Odd, Aelita we're going to the factory," said Jeremy.

The gang splits up. Ashley and Naomi take Dave into Jeremy's room and lay him on the bed. Ulrich and Yumi follow the Creeper. Odd, Aelita, and Jeremy go to the factory.

"Dave, Dave, wake up," said Ashley.

Dave doesn't move. Ashley sits by his side holding his hand.

The Creeper tares down the hallway and rounds the corner. It phases into the janitor's closet with ease. Yumi and Ulrich run past it. The Creeper comes out and doubles back. It rounds the same corner and runs into Theo.

"Hey watch where you're… Uh please don't…" said Theo as the Creeper picked him up.

The Creeper takes out its scythe and cuts Theo's body in half. Blood sprays all over the wall and floor. Herb and Nicholas were coming down the same hallway. They turned and ran. The Creeper followed close behind. Nicholas and Herb ran out side screaming like babies. Police that were guarding the entrances saw the suspicious creature and followed. Nicholas and Herb ran into the street and to the other side. The Creeper formed a large knife and threw it. The knife hit Herb in the head and he fell to the ground. Blood started to cover the street. Nicholas didn't turn back he just kept running. The Creeper decided not to follow. He turned to go back to the school when a black Delorean flew around a corner. The Creeper looked at it as the car stopped right in front of it.

"Bye," said a metallic voice.

A machine gun popped out of the hood and fired. It hit the Creeper square in the head. The Creeper fell to the ground in a pile of dust. The car drove away just as the police came onto the scene. They in return found Herb in the street and another team found Theo in the hall. School was closed down and the students that were boarding had to be escorted by a police officer anytime they wanted to leave their dorms. Of course Jeremy, Odd and Aelita didn't know that because they weren't at school.


Another bloody ch. The next two sort of hold off on the killing.
