'The end' is near. There are only three more chapters before the towers concludes, and the story may go as well. See how it all ends, and what may happen. Yet, will it truely be an end?

Who We Are, The Hidden Meaning

Yumi:

Ulrich and I had been transported up nine stories, we had wondered why and the traveler had told us. We had then begun wondering what we were supposed to do now, but he told us to wait for a second. He had just now reappeared in front of us and was pointing one hand at either of us.

"This will just take a second." He said and a white beam of light appeared out of his hands.

Suddenly I felt my clothes grow just the slightest bit warmer and I could feel energy circulating around just outside of my body. I closed my eyes and got a picture of what was happening. The traveler was manipulating the fabric of my clothes at the atomic level, at least that was what it looked like. As I watched the fabric extended itself and changed into a different material all together. It grew into a much more elaborate dress and for some reason I felt as though I had seen it somewhere.

I felt the work coming to an end and I opened my eyes. When I saw the new dress that I was in I suddenly thought of an anime that I had seen many years ago when I still lived in Japan. I couldn't quite remember what it was called but it had to do with this one boy and five alien girls who had 'accidentally' met him… anyway the dress looked almost like the stile that two of them, who were princesses, had worn.

I looked over at Ulrich and nearly cracked up. I had been right; it was definitely similar to that stile. One of the only differences was that his hair wasn't much longer or braded… but the colors of his new costume were, how should I put this, different. There were greens, blues and whites mostly… It was a real ethnic look for him, and really out of this world…

"What? What is this? Why am I wearing this?" Ulrich asked.

"It is the 'costume', as Yumi so potently put it, that the other versions of you wore. Most of them look like one's from another universe, which an alien race wore. Nice universe, one amazing genius in it… anyway, it will help with the process, don't ask me why, it just will." The traveler told him.

"So I was right?" I asked.

"Yes, you were. You sure know your anime… in any case I need to finish. I will give you all instructions when I am done." He said as he disappeared. And don't touch anything! He added through the telepathic method that he used.

I looked around to see what we could possibly touch. As far as I could see the room was empty. There was the circular wall and the floor, and that was about it. Not much to tamper with there. I began walking around to see if I could find anything to not touch and as I walked forward a light appeared in front of me. As I watched it became like Jeremie's computer screen, but without the computer behind it. I looked at it for a few seconds and suddenly realized that the 'mouse' was following where I looked. I had already opened a few windows and didn't even realize it.

"Yumi, he just said to not touch anything." Ulrich said startled at my blatant disregard for what I had been told. "What are you doing anyway?"

He came over and looked at the screen. It was translucent, meaning we could both see through it, and at first he didn't recognize what it was. When he finally did he made an 'oh' sound and watched as I continued to explore it. I wasn't sure why I kept going, it was as if I was drawn into it, almost as though I couldn't stop myself. I actually tried to look away and found I was just too interested to look elsewhere.

What the screen had 'led' me to was what almost looked like a video of some kind. As I watched I suddenly recognized what I was seeing. It appeared to be Ulrich, myself and the others. We were fighting in the new Lyoko against some monsters that looked different than the ones that we had fought today. As I watched the image became clearer and clearer and I suddenly found myself floating above the action, literally.
