It's been over a month since I updated, but I'm trying to update at least every story once before I have to go back to school. (School should be renamed hell.) Anyway, I thought that I needed to update soon.
Yumi looked at the young Asian boy lying on the ground. They had to believe her, right? God, she hoped they would believe her. As the other five gathered around him, Yumi backed away scared.
As she did, she bumped into Xavier, who placed his hands on her shoulders. "Once he's back, you won't be forgiven, especially by him. They know that it happened because of you. The only reason why they pretended to forgive you is that they were surprised to see that you weren't dead. I will give him back to them forever. I'll then leave them alone and shut myself off. All that has to be done is for you to jump into that digital void," Xavier said positioning her body towards the edge of the plateau.
Yumi looked down into the silver pool that she had been in once before. She then looked back at her friends, who were desperately trying to wake Wyatt up. "He won't wake up until you jump, Yumi. Imagine when Victria and Blake find out that Wyatt's back. But imagine when they find out that you had the chance to change what you did to their friend, but decided not to…" Xavier sighed coldly in her ear.
Yumi shut her eyes tight. Everything seemed to rush back to her. That day that changed her entire life. The shot bouncing off the sword, Wyatt's yell, Yumi's own sobs, her friends sadness. Then, there was only one image that came into Yumi's mind. Wyatt had tried to protect her from everything that had been going on with Ulrich. All she could see was Wyatt fighting Ulrich for her.
She opened her eyes. She knew what she had to do. She took a deep breath and turned to Xavier. "All right, I'll do it," she agreed.
"That's a good girl. See, to promise that I will bring him back to life, I'll do it now, because I know that you wouldn't dare to trick me," Xavier said.
Xavier raised his arms. Rays of energy shot into the ground and made their ways towards Wyatt's body.
Her friends gasped when Wyatt opened his eyes. They began to talk excitedly, and cheer. Xavier crossed his arms and smiled. "There. Look how happy you made them," he announced, motioning to the group pulling Wyatt to his feet.
Yumi smiled genuinely. "Okay, I'm ready," she whispered softly. Yumi walked to the edge. She wasn't going to look back because it would make her upset. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She mentally prepared herself as she lifted up her left foot.
As her foot was no longer on solid ground, she began to bend her right leg so that it would soon give out.
As it began to, she felt two arms wrap themselves around her waist and pull her backwards.
When she felt herself fly backwards, she opened her eyes and looked next to her, where Wyatt sat smiling.
Yumi couldn't bring herself to smile. She stood up. She brushed herself off when she felt a strong hand grab onto her shoulder and pull her. She found herself face to face with a very angry looking Ulrich.
"Why would you do that?" he simply said.
"I have to," she stated.
"Could you tell me why? I thought I managed to get it through to you that no one wants you to kill yourself," Ulrich asked confused.
"Ulrich, you don't understand. I have to do this. It's something that I need to do for my own purposes."
Yumi looked back and saw Xavier standing there tapping his foot like he was losing his patience. "Yumi? Our deal?" he asked.
Yumi nodded. She turned back to Ulrich who looked distraught. "Yumi, what deal did you make with Xavier?" he asked.
"I'm only doing this because it will save Wyatt," she said facing him with sad eyes. She kissed him softly. "Ulrich, I need to make my own decisions. I hope you can understand that this was all my idea," Yumi told him.
She then walked away and towards Wyatt. "How are you?" she asked crouching down next to him.
"Me? Fine. Happy, actually," he said with a small laugh.
She smiled in a fake way. "Listen, I know you were just trying to help me, but you can't stop me this time," she answered.
Wyatt's smile soon disappeared. "What?"
"Just- just let me fall this time," Yumi quivered.
"Why?" Wyatt asked, needing to know the answer.
"You don't need to know why. Just let me fall," Yumi said.
Wyatt shook his head. "No, I won't," he said pulling her to the ground.
Now the others were around them. "Yumi, what's going on?" Odd asked her.
Yumi was sick of this. She stood up and pushed herself out of the little circle they had made. "Just let me be," she yelled angrily.
She walked towards the cliff, but Ulrich blocked her. "Ulrich, I'll push you off if I have to," she spat.
Ulrich's face quickly went from angry to absolutely livid. He pushed Yumi backwards. "I'll kill you before I let you do this to yourself." He said, placing his hand on his sword hilt.
Ulrich was then pushed out of the way by Xavier. "Yumi, you are wasting my time. You need to jump before I change my mind, got it?"
Yumi stood there, knowing her friends wouldn't let her jump. Xavier then realized this too. "If you don't jump, I'll push you off myself."
Yumi stared at him. The others gasped. Wyatt jumped up as Xavier lifted Yumi off the ground and began to carry her to the edge, no matter how much she fought him.
Ulrich eyes met Wyatt's. They both nodded, as if to say, "go". Ulrich and Wyatt ran with a yell. Ulrich stabbed Xavier repeatedly until Xavier was thrown rearward.
Wyatt grabbed onto Yumi who had begun to fall and pulled her upwards. When Xavier saw this he began to laugh hysterically.
"Aw, isn't that cute?" he said between laughs.
Yumi and Wyatt looked t each other strangely before looking at Xavier.
"It's so cute how they think they're so close when they haven't even realized yet that they are not only from the same country, but from the same family. Yumi, meet your twin brother, and Wyatt, meet your twin sister," Xavier said.
Yumi's and Wyatt's eyes became extremely large as they slowly turned to each other. They were…twins?
Wow! I bet none of you guys had thought that I could even do that. But everything that you may be confused about will eventually clear up, especially like why they have different names or different birthdays. (If you remember from new Kids, they both have birthdays in the same months, but different days) It will soon be clear to everyone. Until then, ponder the mystery. (Wow, that sounded strange)
