Chapter Eleven Tears of Truth
Last Time
"STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! RETURNO!"
Today
Alex ran to her room on earth. She buried her face into her pillow. "Why does everything have to go wrong? EVERY SINGLE TIME! Whenever I find someone Erik finds a way to ruin it! WHY?" She punched the pillow. Tears fell onto the sheets. She kneeled on her bed face in hands. "Why?"
Lyoko
"Look what you did!" Ulrich yelled pointing at the spot where Alexandra stood before.
"It's your fault! She was supposed to marry me! I am Prince of Lyoko! You had to barge in!"
"I didn't barge in she ran into me! I met her on Lyoko! I couldn't help falling in love with her!"
"Well too bad! She belongs to me!"
"She isn't an object! She is a living being!"
"She just happens to be a princess!"
"That doesn't make her any different from anyone else!"
"It is true Erik" A tall elven woman stepped into the room.
"Your majesty" Erik said kneeling.
"I see that this man loves the princess?"
"Not just the princess the Princess Alexandra"
"She isn't an object!" Ulrich yelled.
"Shush young one"
"But"
"Shush all will be fine. What is the problem?"
"This boy loves the Princess"
"That is good"
"But I am arranged to marry her"
"I am prepared to break that arrangement."
"But"
"Shush you only want power he wants love. Which would you choose a princess or your true love?"
"Princess of course" The Queen waved her hand over a spot on the floor. A bubble appeared. A girl about Ulrich's age was out on the streets she looked hungry. Her black hair went down to her shoulders tangled in knots. Her brown eyes filled with tears. Erik's eyes remained the way they were.
"Ulrich retrieve this girl" Ulrich stood up.
Earth
Alex was lying down on the bed. "Alex let me in" Yumi's voice came from outside the door.
"No"
"Alex please"
"My world is falling apart! The boy I love is on Lyoko fighting with the boy I'm arranged to marry!"
"Well let me in and we'll talk about it!" Alex unlocked the door. Yumi looked at her. Her dress was slightly torn. "Who is the one you like?"
"Ulrich" Alex said. Her tears dropped on the floor. "I know you must hate me now"
"Why would I?"
"Cause I kissed him?"
"You kissed him?"
"Yes then I returned to Lyoko" Yumi could've cried right there but she didn't.
"So what happened on Lyoko?"
"Ulrich came. The boy I was arranged to marry took my voice. They fought. I yelled. I ran away cried for an hour then this"
"Oh" Alex put her head in her hands and pushed her hair back.
"I don't know what I should do. Erik always ruins everything and I love Ulrich" Tears were falling again. "I'm sorry. I should go I know you like Ulrich"
"No Ulrich likes you and I am stepping aside."
"You don't have to do that I belong on Lyoko not Earth. We are from two different worlds"
"That hasn't stopped Jeremy and Aelita!"
"But Aelita had her memory erased! I remember every single detail of my entire life! You think that's easy? I knew that I didn't belong to this world my entire life here! I remember my life on Lyoko! You think that I am okay with that? If I hadn't remembered any of it I would be happy! You would have Ulrich and everyone would have the life they are meant to have! I. Don't. Belong. Here" Her face bunched up. "I am an alien! I have to hide what I really am!"
"Don't say that. You have someone who likes you a home and a place in the world."
"I need to be alone right now" Yumi left. Alex started crying. "Every single time"
