Lord Maximus: This has nothing to do with my other crossovers, but I will be using Xana's form from them. It is much easier than thinking of a new one.
Chapter 6
Morganna yelled in anger and it echoed throughout Carthage. She nearly had them all. At least she had Aura hidden away in the guardian and the copy will soon be born, with the right emotions that is. All she had to do now was wait.
Jeremy brought up the materialization sequence and soon the players of the World entered the real. However when Tsukasa was materialized the gang found not a boy, but a girl with blonde hair. Mimiru stepped out of the scanner. She looked the same, except no yellow marks and she wore a white t shirt and black pants.
She wore a dark brown skirt and her brown hair was not spiky so it fell down to her neck. Tsukasa wore a black belly shirt, a purple jacket, and black pants. She smiled as the Lyoko gang was confused.
"Looks like you guys don't understand." she said,
"Are you Tsukasa?" asked Odd.
She nodded. Mimiru giggled and walked over.
"It's a very complicated story." said Mimiru.
Bear stepped out of the next scanner. He looked like a man in his forties, he looked the same except his skin had know blue or white stripes, and he wore a business suit. Sora jumped out of the next scanner. His hair was the same, except it was black; he wore red shirt, blue pants, and a black jacket.
He looked smaller than he did before. No taller than Odd. Krim, Ginkan, and Subaru finally came out. Krim's hair was jet black and he wore a business suit like Bear. Ginkan had white hair, blue eyes, and he wore a police uniform. Subaru had long blue hair and glasses.
For some reason she could not stand.
"Subaru!" said Tsukasa.
He grabbed her arm and draped it over his shoulders. The Lyoko gang except for Jeremy was confused.
"I suppose you guys haven't been to the World?" asked Krim.
Odd, Yumi, Ulrich, and Aelita shook their heads.
"When you enter the World you are a completely different person. The reason Subaru can't stand up is because she hasn't been able to walk for four years." said Bear.
Their eyes widened.
"I'll go get a wheel chair." said Jeremy.
He came back with one and Subaru sat on it.
"What should we do now?" asked Mimiru,
"Jeremy can get you enrolled at our school. Well, except for . . . "said Ulrich.
Bear, Krim, and Ginkan nodded. Sora smiled mischievously. However Mimiru warned him with a cold piercing glare. It wasn't long before the Lyoko gang got Mimiru, Tsukasa, Subaru, and Sora enrolled at Kadic Junior High. They sat in the cafeteria eating their food.
Bear, Ginkan, and Krim stayed at the factory. The Lyoko gang created temporary bedrooms for them. Morganna watched them, but had her eyes on Aelita. It was time to find out what was so important about her.
The first thing she did was send monsters to a tower in the Polar Region. These monsters were lizards with a giant eye on their heads, their hands were clawed, and their tails were spiky.
The tower now glowed purple.
At the cafeteria and purple fog emerged and entered Aelita's drink. She drank it and Morganna chuckled in her mind. This was too easy.
"Hey, Bear looks like Morganna is at again." said Krim,
"We have to warn the others, but we also need to know what Morganna's target is." said Bear.
Aelita suddenly felt pain pulse through her as she collapsed.
"Aelita!" shouted Jeremy.
They brought her to the infirmary and checked the computer. It detected an activated tower.
"Morganna." said Tsuaksa grimly.
They headed for the factory and left Dorothy to watch Aelita.
"Hello?" called Aelita.
She walked through a dark path that had strange noise that sounded like music. She came upon a very large door and pushed it open. Inside was a human held upside down with long grey hair. Aelita gasped as her eyes went wide.
The man stared at her with half opened eyes as if he awakened from a deep sleep.
"I love you." he said and his voice echoed throughout the room.
Aelita stared at him in confusion and stepped back. However the door vanished.
"I have. ... Failed. I believed . . . I believed we would be able to start over, but I failed. I am the one to blame. I failed as a father. But she is my hope . . . she is our hope." said the man.
Aelita stared as if her eyes locked on him. He seemed to be some kind of recorder.
"What do you mean?" asked Aelita,
"She is our only hope. She is the one. I tried to . . . to raise her in real life, but failed miserably as a father." said the man.
"You're not making any sense!" screamed Aelita.
Suddenly the room vanished into darkness. This time the hermitage appeared and Aelita walked in. This time it was clean like she saw in her visions. She two people inside the room. One was Franz Hopper and the other was a woman with long red hair and looked like Aelita!
In the woman's arms was a baby, grasping her mother's finger with her tiny hands. The woman smiled down at the child. The scene vanished into a misty fog and Aelita heard a scream. She saw the elf known as Mister Puck run away from a pack of wolves as they chased him like in her dreams.
The elf screamed as the wolves jumped. Now she appeared in the lab with some people dressed in lab coats. Franz Hopper was at the computer typing. She saw herself on the screen and saw a virtual image of Puck.
Beneath Puck was a card of him labeled 'Xanadu'. She saw the man she saw in the upside down dungeon.
"You sure you should do this Franz? This technology is very risky." said the man,
"I must." said Franz with determination in his voice.
Aelita watched as they worked and soon saw the Hermitage again. This time men dressed in black suits and wore sunglasses entered the room.
"Franz Hopper, you are coming with us." said the man,
"Never! Run Aelita!" shouted Franz.
She saw a girl run to the basement, but that was no ordinary girl, it was her! Franz and Aelita ran to the factory and Franz virtualized Aelita. Xanadu in the form of Puck appeared.
"Aelita, what is going on?" asked the elf,
"They have for us!" shouted Aelita, crying.
Xanadu embraced her as she cried on her shoulder. The man came and Franz stood between them and the computer.
"You are under arrest for illegal technology." said the man,
"I will not let you take my daughter!" shouted Franz.
She found herself in Carthage and saw Xanadu staring a black glowing orb of darkness. He touched it and screamed as the orb pulsed and entered his body. His form melted away and in his place stood a dark figure. The figure seemed to be made of nothing but pure darkness.
Even if it was a dream Aelita sensed the raw energy and evil emanating from the being. She found it hard to believe that thing was once a virtual humanoid. Then she saw it. Right in the center of the darkness.
A red glowing eye that never blinked. It pierced her soul as she stared at it. She knew what that being of darkness was. She knew it was the same being that caused her friends so much grief.
It was Xana.
At the factory Yumi, Odd, and Ulrich virtualized into the Polar Region and jumped as the monsters attacked. Ulrich sliced through the creatures and Odd and Yumi easily destroyed the rest.
"This is too easy." said Yumi,
"Looks like Morganna setting a trap." said Ulrich.
However the tower Morganna activated shut down.
Guys, Morganna just deactivated the tower." said Jeremy,
"Why?" asked Yumi.
However Aelita woke up in cold sweat. Dorothy saw her awake and walked to her bed.
"How do you feel, Aelita?" asked Dorothy,
"I am fine." said Aelita.
Later at Jeremy's dorm Aelita explained everything she saw.
"Maybe Morganna found a way to access your memories, without a monster." said Jeremy,
"But what does that have to do with my visions?" asked Aelita.
"We know who the man in the upside down dungeon is. His name is Harold, the creator of the World and Aura." said Bear on the computer from the factory.
"But then what does that have to do with Franz Hopper, that woman, and Xana?" asked Aelita,
"Might be a memory. Your origins." said Jeremy.
They all agreed, but Aelita wished she never had any more visions.
