I'm back…So in this chapter the gang finally faces their first real challenge. In the last chapter Odd and the gang fell into the file named Kiwi thinking that's where they would find Odd's small dog well they'll find some kind of animal as well as natives like Aelita could this mean the was a Lyoko Team before our hero's? Oh yah for the people looking for some comedy this is the chapter to read.

Chapter 3:

Team Hopper

"ODD THAT WAS ME!" Yumi yelled. As you know caves are dark and so was this one. Odd was trying to find his way and well he was found on the ground with a red mark the shape of a hand on his right cheek a few seconds later. As they walked through the cave they feared it would never end but eventually something happened. Jerome had managed to create a "lantern" to guide them through the cave. Sometime later Aelita noticed three more shadows than there should be (that's seven shadows for you math challenged people). Aelita thought that maybe the position of the light was making an extra shadow…..or three…….that were moving in a different position than any one else…..well I'm willing to bet your thinking along the same lines a Aelita, "those are shadows of other people." Well you're right.

"Guys I think we have company" said Aelita pointing at the three extra shadows. "Don't worry Aelita it's probably just the light making double shadows for us" said Yumi thoughtfully. "Then why is one scratching its nose!" exclaimed Odd. "Okay, that's definitely not a trick of the light" said Ulrich. "No Ulrich it is" said Odd sarcastically. "Jeremy how's the map of File: Kiwi going" asked Aelita. "Almost….Done!" said Jeremy. "How many people are on the screen?" "Seven!" "That's not good" said Odd. "Stay back we're armed!" called Ulrich. "Really well so are we mate" said a voice with an Australian accent. "Yes we are but we're not here to fight" said a Spanish sounding voice. "Well it looks like their gana anyways." said a deep voice. "Show your selves" called Ulrich. The three stepped into the light. They all looked like teenagers only slightly older than Yumi. The first one was about five feet tall he had red hair and was dressed like a Australian hunter and was holding a boomerang. The second was about the first guy's height with black hair and was dressed like a Spanish general with a fencing sword. The last was about six feet tall and very strong he looked African American and was wearing a pair of metallic goggles his weapon was some type of staff.

"We're not here to hurt you" said the Australian man. "But we will if we must" said the African man. "I highly doubt that" said Ulrich. "Laser Arrow!" called Odd as he shot an arrow at the Australian man. "Warp!" said the Australian man. Out of the man's hand some kind of bubble floated out when the arrow hit it stopped and was captured in the bubble. "I bet you can't stop something propelling its self" said Ulrich and ran towards Australian man with his sword. "That's why I'm here" said the Spanish man from behind Ulrich and knocked Ulrich's sword out of his hand. "We need your help" said the African man. "Why do you need our help your stronger than us" said Yumi. "But you have more resources." "Okay what do you need help with?" asked Ulrich "A beast that even XANA fears." "How do we beat it?" Aelita asked. "I don't know." "What are your names" "I'm Will" said the Australian man. "I'm José" said the Spanish man. "I'm Qwaii." said the African man. "And we're Team Hopper" they all said.
