Gavin was typing rapidly on the supercomputer in the lab. He hadn't slept a wink since Ulrich's kidnapping and was getting increasingly worried. He was trying to figure out what the Xana side of the being wanted with Ulrich. Gavin was scanning through pages of writing in seconds. He was in this frame of mind because he felt guilty for what happened to Ulrich. Gavin read a page from his Grandfather's diary and typed some more. Thoughts were running through his head like lightning bolts. What if Ulrich was never seen again? What if Ulrich died? What if Xana wins? What if the gang exclude him and see him as a danger? It would be his entire fault. He swore under his breath, thinking about the life he had been brought up in. He glanced at his sword. He never went anywhere without it, lots of people hated him. Yet, a lot of people liked him.
Suddenly, the elevator door opened and Jeremie stepped in.
Jeremie: Any luck?
Gavin: No.
Jeremie: You should take a break. Go see Odd and I'll continue where you have left off.
Gavin: Sure, I will.
Gavin got up off the big chair, grabbed is sword and stepped into the elevator. The doors closed and the elevator rose up to the level above.
Yumi sat beside Odd. She looked at him and all the equipment around him. His heartbeat was very slow and his breathing came in ragged, wheezy gasps. Aelita was still very quiet and had been since Jeremie left. A tear slid down her cheek.
Yumi: What's wrong?
Aelita: What if Xana attacks Jeremie?
Yumi: Just pray he doesn't.
Odd twisted a bit and his heart slowed down to only 1 beat every 5 seconds. His eyes fluttered open and then closed again. There was a beeping sound, Yumi looked up. Odd's heart had stopped beating. Yumi pressed a button on the wall and 5 doctors came in and tried to get his heart beating again and succeeded. Just then Gavin came in with two cups in his hand.
Gavin: Thought you two would like some coffee.
Yumi: Thanks Gavin.
Aelita: Did you make any progress?
Gavin: Sadly no.
Yumi: Listen Gavin, I owe you an…
Gavin: No you don't.
Yumi: let me finish.
Gavin remained silent.
Yumi: I owe you an apology for the way I shouted at you yesterday.
Gavin: It was how you felt. I'm fine with that.
Yumi: That's the great thing about you.
Gavin: What is?
Yumi: You're so forgiving, just like Ulrich.
Suddenly the heart monitor sparked and Xana appeared in the room. He threw Yumi against a wall and she fell unconscious.
He grabbed Aelita and knocked her out. She was next.
Gavin ran towards this beast but got grabbed mid run and got firmly thrown out the ward window down into the street below.
Xana disappeared with Aelita.
Jeremie was walking in the Hospital car park when Gavin landed on a car in front of him.
Gavin: Hi.
Jeremie: Hi.
Gavin fell unconscious.
