A/N: Okay, I'm back. And the winner of the prize is...
spAybaraSimonslit!
Yes, yes I know it looks like wolfpuppriestess was first, but that was just cause I messed up really badly on a chapter and she reviewed it. She got a nice prize of tofu waffles in the mail. Okay, read, review, and enjoy!
Yumi stared at Jeremie. She couldn't believe her ears. But she had no time to ponder over this, because the next moment Jeremie blurted out, "We have to go wake Odd and Ulrich! Come on!"
Yumi leaped to her feet and followed Jeremie down the hallway and towards the boy's room. Skidding to a halt in front of it, Yumi opened up the door and screamed, "Wake up!"
Even through the ear plugs, the boys could hear the girl's yells. "Why are you wearing ear plugs?" Ulrich asked Odd.
Odd popped them out of his ears. "Ever since I learned that you do. And I see no point to them. They're useless." He tossed them onto the floor.
"Who cares? We have to go to the factory!" Pulling on their shoes and coats over their pajamas, they followed Yumi.
They Lyoko gang sprinted to the factory. They had no lime to waste. Meanwhile, Jeremie was telling them what happened.
"I couldn't sleep a wink last night because I worried there would be some technical difficulties in them." He was trying to use his normal vocabulary as little as possible so that they wouldn't get confused.
"So I came over to the factory to check for any flaws and when I got there, they were gone!"
"Just like that?" asked Ulrich from Jeremie's right.
"Mmhmm."
They reached the factory gates and headed for the ropes. Yumi went first, and then Odd. Jeremie took hold of the rope and tried to copy him, but ended up falling off.
As Jeremie fell toward the cement floor, he closed his eyes, and suddenly he felt a hand grab him by the collar. It was Ulrich. They landed on the ground on their feet, and then headed for the manufacturing level.
Yumi squatted down and looked at where the robots had last been. There were no clues to solve this mystery.
"Who do you think could have done this?" she asked.
"Xana." Jeremie pounded his right fist into his other open palm.
"Any other options?"
"Xana."
"Anyone else?"
"Xana."
Yumi rolled her eyes and straightened up. "What's the proof that only Xana could have done this?"
"For starters, Xana can go and get things out of the way without a trace. And Xana has the motivation. He's had this grudge against us for ages."
Yumi interrupted him. "Jeremie, anyone can do that."
Ulrich nodded, and then gestured the area around them. "Using this machinery, anyone could have done it. Even Odd."
"Hey!" Odd elbowed Ulrich in the side.
"So we have no idea who could have done this," said Yumi. Jeremie nodded at her. Yumi sighed in frustration.
After several more minutes of silence, Ulrich checked his watch and said, "It's almost time for breakfast, we should get back to school."
And to make matters worst, it began to pour (Has anyone ever noticed that it never rains in Code: Lyoko? Well it does now!). The Lyoko gang trudged back to school for another day of torture instead of freedom and bliss.
A/N- Nothin' much to say. So please review.
