Sorry it took me so long to write this chapter. I've been really busy with other things... I'm slightly depressed right now so don't mind my attitude. Thanks for all the reviews. I didn't expect so many so soon...really. And thanks for telling me who it's by...I guess. Well, I hope you like this chapter.
Chapter Five
"Everyone, please calm down!" Orrick said as he walked through the crowd. "Everything will be ok! Just settle down somewhere!" Od looked around, before taking out his cell. He dialed a number and held it up to his ear. After a few rings, someone picked up the phone.
"Hello? Od?"
"Yeah, hey, Jeremy," said Od hurriedly. "Has there been anything weird going on in Lyoko?"
"I'm not sure, let me check," answered Jeremy. Od could hear faint 'taps' as Jeremy typed on his laptop. "Why do you ask?"
"You know that dance that's supposed to be happening tonight?"
"Yeah, what about it?"
"Well, we're all locked up inside, like last time," Od said. "And when I say 'like last time', I mean like last time. Yumi's not in here!"
"Right, I'll check with Aelita," Jeremy said. "I'll talk to you later."
"Hmm," Od said, before clicking off his cell. "Orrick!"
"Yeah?" asked the brunette as he made his way over passed frightened teens. "Any news from Jeremy?"
"Not so far," Od said, shaking his head. "But Jeremy's checking into it." Orrick nodded. The ground began to shake, and everyone wobbled about, trying to regain his or her balance. "What the?"
"I'm not sure what it is," answered Orrick, catching himself before he fell back. "I think it's an earthquake!"
"Earthquake?" asked Od, bewildered. "Here?"
"It's possible," Orrick answered. Someone bumped into Od, knocking the blonde forward. Instead of hitting the ground face-first, he fell onto Orrick, thus knocking both of them down together. Dark blushes quickly gathered onto their faces as they saw what position they were in.
"Uh..." Orrick smiled slightly, before rubbing the back of his head.
"I guess it's your turn to knock me down, huh?" he asked. Od smiled at the memory, before pushing himself up, careful not to touch Orrick more than he had to.
"I guess," he said. His cell began to vibrate, and he picked it up. "Jeremy?"
"Yeah, it's me," Jeremy said calmly, though his voice was grave.
"Any news?"
"Yeah, Xana has activated another tower!"
"Oh, great," said Od, rolling his eyes. Orrick gave him an inquiring look. "Xana's launched another tower." Orrick slapped his forehead in exasperation. "Can you contact Yumi?"
"I can try."
"Great, 'cause we're kind of stuck here." Jeremy nodded.
"Right." He broke the line, and turned back to his computer. "Aelita?"
"Yes, Jeremy?"
"Prepare to go to a new location."
"Where shall I be going?" asked Aelita curiously. Jeremy narrowed his eyes slightly.
"The Ocean." Aelita nodded. "Yumi?"
"Huh? Jeremy?" asked the familiar female voice. "What's up?"
"Xana's attacked the dance," Jeremy answered. "He's locked everyone up inside."
"What?!"
"Check the doors. Can you open them?" A small moment of silence.
"No, I can't!" Yumi said. "I know what I have to do. I'm on my way." Jeremy nodded.
"I'll meet you at the factory." Yumi hung up her cell, and began running. 'Boy, am I glad this isn't a formal dance!' she thought, as she raced through the forest, almost tripping on a rock.
She reached the sewer, and slid down the ladder. She ran down the large pipe, and grabbed her skateboard.
"Jeremy, I'm ready to go," said Aelita.
"Are you sure?" he asked. "You've never been there before."
"What's it like?"
"It's just all water," Jeremy said. "But...then the tower must be underwater." Aelita nodded.
"I understand."
"Jeremy! I'm here!" Jeremy turned around, and would've smiled at his friend if the situation weren't so serious.
"Good," he said. "Are you ready to go to the Ocean?"
"Ocean?" she asked. "What do you mean? The tower's underwater?!"
"Yes," he said. "Be careful of any new monsters." Yumi nodded.
"Got it," she said. "I'll see you there, Aelita." Yumi ran back to the elevator, pressed a button, and disappeared. She reached the floor that held the scanners, and entered. She reached one, and stepped inside.
"Transfer: Yumi," she heard Jeremy's voice through the speakers. Lights flew by around her, and she closed her eyes. "Scanner: Yumi." She raised her head slightly, as wind-like air blew from below her. "Virtualization."
So...how was that? Well, I'm working on the next chapter, but currently am having Writers' Block. Well...I hope you enjoyed it anyway. Before I leave, I want to ask you guys something. Would anyone like me to write a fanfic of anything in particular? Like HP, or something? I'll be waiting. If I like the idea, and I have other things to add, then I'll consider writing it. Thanks, if you guys have any ideas.
