Here is another installment to the group of Garage Kids sequels that continue to add more and more factors that turn it into Code Lyoko. By the way, watch Cartoon Network, on September 19 at 6:00 PM to see new episodes, featuring virtual vehicles, new monsters, and a new region. Also, Aelita gets to stay at Kadics!
Mewberries - Hi! Well, you know, if Jeremie did complete the Materialization program, there, then episodes like "Cruel Dilema", "Just in Time", and, of course, "Code: Earth"/"False Start" would be meaningless.
Garage Kids 3:
Glaciers and Hornets and Research, Oh My!
Chapter 5
X.A.N.A. had really done it! All of Jeremie's research files, all the notes from past scientists, gone.
"Our our work is gone!" cried Jeremie. "How did he...?"
Then, Aelita stated the obvious: "X.A.N.A. must've activated a tower, somewhere on Lyoko, then hacked into your computer, through the Surveillance Program. It isn't in the Mountain Region," she added. "I sense no pulsations."
Jeremie raised an eyebrow, and said, "Pulsations?"
Aelita nodded, understandingly. "Oh. When X.A.N.A. is active, though a tower, his presence sets off a string of pulsations... his heartbeat, if you will."
Jeremie nodded. "I understand. Well, if there's an active tower, I guess you'll have to deactivate it... and we'll have to help you get that far."
As Aelita left to check the other regions, he opened his phone program and selected Odd's number. However, he knew Odd would still be in the cafeteria. He thought for a moment. "Hmm, I could text message him... now, what can I write to give him enough information, without giving away too much information to anyone else?" In the end, he typed:
SOS
XANA
J
Jeremie smiled, and said. "That should be enough."
As Odd scooped the last of his macaroni into his mouth, he felt his phone vibrate. As he pulled it out and activated it, he took one good look at the text message he received, and was headed for the school park, in a matter of seconds.
Ulrich felt his phone vibrate as well.
"Hello?" he said, into the microphone.
"Ulrich," said his computer-genius friend. "Is Yumi with you?"
"Yeah."
"Good," he said. "Both of you come to the factory. We've got X.A.N.A. trouble."
"We're on our way," said Ulrich, dutifully. He hung up, and turned to Yumi. "Jeremie says to meet him at that factory. X.A.N.A.'s woken up.
Jeremie snuck along the ground level of the dorm building. Glancing around a corner, he saw Jim.
Great, he thought. He's sure to wonder what I'm doing, wandering around here, at this time.
He slipped into the boiler room to hide. Jim started walking that way, so he probably heard him, somehow. Sneaking around the back, he noticed what appeared to be the door to a janitor's closet. Opening the door, he slipped in, closed the door behind him, and found himself running down a damp tunnel.
Where does this lead? he wondered. Soon, he found himself running though a door, with a broken screen, into--wouldn't you know it--the sewer!
Jeremie chuckled. "Well, that was strangely convenient," he said.
Jeremie met his friends, at the elevator, and all four made their way down into the lab. He logged onto the Super Calculator and called for his virtual friend. "Aelita, are you there?"
"Jeremie!" she cried, with relief. "Thank goodness. I found the tower, but a group of monsters chased me away."
Don't worry, the boy genius said, keystroking. "I have you localized. Help is on the way."
Yumi, Ulrich, and Odd took this as their sign to rush to the elevator and take it down to the scanners.
"Aelita is in the Polar Region, so that's, by no doubt, the location of the tower," they heard Jeremie say, over a speaker system.
"Hey, Jeremie, isn't it called the Glacier Region?" asked Odd.
"Either name can be used interchangeably," he responded. As the three got into their corresponding scanners, he added. "I'm sending you in, just a few yards west of where Aelita is. Ready?" The scanner doors closed. "Here we go."
"Transfer: Yumi," Jeremie announced as he called up her Digital Card. "Transfer: Ulrich. Transfer: Odd."
Down in the Scanner Room, each kid, one at a time, felt the scanners hum to life, and a wind seem to blow up on them.
"Scanner: Yumi."
An image of Yumi's virtual form appeared in a window, on the screen. Starting at the feet, red, green, and blue color began to fill its way up.
"Scanner: Ulrich."
Ulrich's virtual form appeared on the screen, as well, and began to fill.
"Scanner: Odd."
Odd's form came up next.
One at a time, the three were lifted up, by the air pressure in the scanners, and were rotated, for an even scan.
In a matter of seconds, they heard Jeremie's cry of, "Virtualization!" And they felt a rushing air movement... and then, they felt the tingling sensation of their molecules rearranging into computer data.
