--------------------------------------Chapter 5(4) A New Family

Leah slowly opens her eyesto see 5 faces looking down on her. "W...where am I?" she stammers. Quickly, the tension on each face disappears.

Suddenly, she realized she was in her room lying on her bed. "How?..." "We carried you. How do you feel?" Odd answered first. Her hand went immediately to her head, it was pounding. "Ow. Does anybody have any Advil?" she asked the wide-eyed faces. "I do. I thought you might need it." Yumi said first, recovering from the drama of the day.

"Are you ok?" Odd asked. It was then that she realized that Odd was holding her hand in both of his. She smiled and sat up,"Yeah, I'm fine. So we did deactivate the tower, right?" "Yeah, but just bearily. If you hadn't come, I never would have made it to the tower." answered Aelita. "Anytime." Leah winked, "you guys are my friends. I was not going to let a super computer destroy my friends."

She jumped when she felt something vibrate in her pocket. She fished the object out of her pocket and revealed an emerald green cell phone. "Oh, no." she said to herself. "Why? What is it?" "It's my mom." She hesitated, then explained to the questioned faces of her friends. "My mom only calls to tell me that a move isn't permanint. Her job involves alot of travel so we move like twice a year, that is on a good year."She sighs than stands up, "I guess I better answer it." She presses a button, puts the phone to her ear, then hesitates. "Um, hello?...hey mom... but...but mom!...listen for a second. I'm not leaving. Kadic is my home now. I don't want to leave...yes mom, we will. Bye." She pressed another button, then threw the cell up against the wall.

"Ok, what was that about?" Urich asked. She sighed again and said, "Oh, ya know, 'I'm sorry but you know my job involves alot of travel' Then she said we will talk about in when she's here next week." Odd gasped in horror,"When, if you move, when?" Tear streamed down her face, "About 2 months. But she did say we would talk about it. I just need to give her a good reason." She sat down on her bed again and closed her eyes. She needed to think. "Hey, I have a good reason." Odd says. "Actually Leah, you have five reasons." She opened her eyes, "What...what are they? Please tell me!" she begged, anything to give her an idea. "They are standing right in front of you." A fresh wave of tears hit her eyes. "We are not going to let you move" Odd says ploping down beside her on the bed. "You're family, we will do everything we can to keep you at Kadic." Aelita continues. "You are not leaving," Ulrich says. "atleast not without a fight" Yumi finishes for him. She stands and gives her friends each a hug, "You guys are the best!"

Leah's eyes flicker on her digital alarm clock: 8:30! "Oh no! Guys, its past curfew! You guys have to get to your rooms. If you get caught we're dead!" They each say good-bye, Leah giving her friends another hug. Aelita crawls underneath her blanket as Leah hold open the door. They walk out and give each a bright smile. Yumi, then Jeremie, then Ulrich. Odd stops at the door and whispers "Don't worry. I promise, I won't let you leave." He quickly kisses her on the ckeek then walks through the door. "Good night Odd." she replies after him. She crawls under her blanket and closes her eyes. A few moments pass, and Aelita sits up, "Leah, don't worry. We won't let you leave." Leah smile to herself then answers "Don't worry. I'm not."
