Hi! Sorry for the wait. I got kinda bored with the story, and if any of you still like it please tell me, because I'm seriously tempted to make this chapter say:
And then the world blew up. They had run out of time.
But I won't. Because I love you.
Everything was just as it should be. Well, except that they hadn't materialized Aelita, yet. But that was ok. They had time.
Or so they thought.
XANA's puppeteer, know as Kira, stood on her porch smiling into the cool darkness that surrounded her. Time was the last thing they had, if all her traps went off correctly. At sunrise, the chaos would start. And that's what it would be. Utter chaos.
Adain couldn't sleep. Well, she was asleep when Snake brought her to her room, but she had woken up with her senses on red alert. Something was wrong. Very wrong.
Adain slid out of bed, not making a sound. She pulled on loose jeans and changed her cami, then moved through the hallways to the stairwell. Adain lifted off the ground and flew down the hallways, out the door, down the front of the building to the boys dorm, in through that door and made her way to Jeremy's room. She walked in and knelt down next to the sleeping boy. Shaking him hard, his eyes opened.
"Jeremy, we have a code red. I'm gonna go to the factory. I'll meet you there after you wake up Odd and Ulrich. Have Ulrich get Yumi." With that she ran out of the room, kicking off and speeding in the direction of the park.
Jeremy woke Odd first, who then woke Ulrich by licking a finger and sticking it in his ear (after taking the earplug out).
"Adain said to meet her at the factory after you get Yumi. You might want to call her. Wake her up before you get to her house. After all it is three in the morning." Jeremy told Ulrich and then he and Odd ran out, leaving Ulrich to wake up entirely. Hitting the speed-dial button on his cell, he pulled on pants and a shirt.
Yumi rolled out of bed when her cell went off. Hitting the floor with a painful sounding thump she groped for her cell phone.
"What'd ya want, Ulrich? I was sleeping."
"We have a code red. Adain thinks something is wrong and we have to meet her and the guys at the factory."
"Ok. Where are you?"
"Under your window." Yumi was slightly shocked at this answer, and, on impulse, she walked over to the window and waved.
"Yumi, get dressed and come down. I'll see you on your front steps."
Yumi blushed once she realized that she was still in her underwear. Pulling on black jeans and a black tank top (the first things she could find) she crept to the front door.
Adain and Jeremy and Odd were huddled around the supercomputer when Yumi and Ulrich stepped out of the elevator. They were talking to Aelita.
"Just check, will you? I'll launch a scan to see where they are and you go have a look around. Wait a minute, I'll send Adain to the tower." Jeremy told Aelita. He nodded to Adain and she ran to the elevator, hitting the button and leaning against a wall.
"There are four activated towers. That means XANA is planning something big. But the only problem is, we don't know what he's gonna do."
"Ok, Jeremy. I'm here." Adain avoided correcting Jeremy about the true gender of his arch enemy.
"Scanner Adain, transfer Adain, virtualization."
Adain fell to the ground on Lyoko. She was in the mountain region. Aelita came running out of the tower.
"Hey! How ya doing?"
"Not badly, but we will be soon if we don't deactivate the towers." She moved her attention to Jeremy. "Jeremy, could you send one person to every region to kill the monsters before I get there?" She obviously got an affirmative answer because she said, "Thanks, bye!" and took off running in some odd direction.
"Odd, I'm sending you to the polar region, Yumi to the forest region, and Ulrich to the desert region. Bye guys. Virtualization."
Yumi dropped, instantly confronted by seven hornets. Throwing her fan, she sliced through four of them. She pinned the rest to a tree with a closed fan until they blew up. Now to take care of the blocks.
Adain drew Rec'myla, slashing through the wall of blocks. Aelita was right behind her, carefully avoiding the madly swinging blade.
"Ok, go, Aelita."
Aelita ran into the tower, deactivated it, and then ran back out to beckon Adain to follow her. She walked back in, tailed by Adain, they both did the falling number and ended up in the polar region.
"Hello, Odd!" Adain yelled. Her sword was instantly out and she killed the last few mini crabs for him.
"Thanks." Odd panted.
"No prob. Aelita work your magic."
Ulrich was backed against one big rock. There were at least seven full-sized crabs pinning him there. If he moved they'd shoot. If he didn't move, they'd shoot. He decided to move. Ulrich dove around legs of crabs, freeing himself in time to not get devirtualized by seven lasers at once. He figured that would hurt.
Just then Adain jumped off the top of the rock, landing on a crab and shoving her sword into the eye before the stupid thing knew what hit him. She jumped to another crab as Odd leaped off the rock too. Firing three arrows, three of the crabs exploded. Ulrich was tired of watching and jumped onto a crab, killing one, then throwing himself onto the next. While they were playing with the crabs, Aelita ran into the tower and deactivated it, then went to help Yumi. The others would figure out where she'd went.
Adain, Ulrich, and Odd exited the tower into the forest region to hear Jeremy say, "Odd and Ulrich, careful of your lifepoints. You and Yumi are almost dead."
"Well seeing as I'm the only one who hasn't been hit yet, I'll go kill those things. You just sit back and enjoy the show."
Adain flew up to meet the Griffins in midair. The talons of the one closest to her were gone in an instant and a second later it blew up. The second Griffin grabbed at her shoulders, attempting to drop her again.
"Uh-uh. I can fly, remember?" she twisted in the air and whacked the Griffin across the face (if griffins have faces). Spinning again, she pulled her sword out of the sheath and the griffin exploded, Rec'myla embedded in it's stomach. Adain pulled the sword out of the griffin before it exploded and flew down to her friends. "Ok, Aelita. Take us back to the past!"
"NO WAIT!" Jeremy's voice echoed around the virtual world.
"Why, Jeremy?" Aelita asked, all innocence.
"I see what XANA wanted, now. If we deactivate this tower, Aelita and all of you will be destroyed automatically. He-" Jeremy was cut off by Adain.
"She. XANA is controlled by a girl named Kira. She lives in your time and world."
"WHAT?!?" Jeremy screeched. "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US THIS?!?"
"Because it wasn't important then. I've known for awhile that XANA was a girl, and that we might be devirtualized and the world will blow up if we don't fix it. I even thought of a decent plan of action. Jeremy, I need you to sit back and let me take charge for a few minutes. Ok?"
"yeah, sure." Jeremy muttered.
"Ok, Aelita, you need to go into the tower and find the information for what XANA is going to do. Jeremy, please devirtualize each one of us one by one. You can do it. Do me last. When Aelita comes out, do the same thing for her. It's possible. I've done it. Now go!" both of the computer geniouses rushed to do their jobs.
"But what do we do?" odd whined.
"we kill those." Adain pointed to the trees, where three blocks had just appeared. "Jeremy, do Ulrich first, he's lowest on lifepoints."
"Why can't I just die in battle?"
"Because you'd never come out of Lyoko."
"Oh." Ulrich walked away from the others and devirtualized. Adain and Yumi attacked with all their strength as Odd was brought out of Lyoko. Adain killed the last one as Yumi dissappeared and Aelita walked out of the tower.
"Jeremy, do Aelita now."
Jeremy held his breathe as he hit different keys, then enter.
"Don't go see her just yet. Devirtualize me, and meet us in the scanner room." Adain said into his headset.
"Ok." Jeremy obeyed like a dog. After the keys were hit and the devirtualizations completed, he ran down to the scanner room. Everyone was standing next to a pink haired teen-ager. Jeremy smiled.
"Guys, don't forget XANA!" adain said as she stepped out of the center scanner. That brought everyone back into reality.
"Aelita, would you like to do the honers?" Aelita smiled and led everyone to the supercomputer. She unplugged it and threw the cords onto the ground.
"Goodbye, XANA. For good."
A/N I hoped you liked it! I want to thank you people who told me that my first ending sucked and that I should write a new one, which I did. So Thank You!
A/N I'm changing my pen name to Warrior Pixie, so I won't be publishing anything under littleblazingstar anymore.
