:Missing:
Ch. 3: Reunited... in a closet...
Last Time: "Ready Aelita?" Yumi asked. Aelita nodded and Yumi announced in a whisper, "1- 2- 3--" Suddenly as Aelita bolted out the door, a pair of hands grabbed Yumi. "Yumi!" Aelita screamed. Yumi yelled, "Aelita, get out of here! Get help!" Aelita turned back once and ran.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aelita ran,the whole way, she cried. She was heading towardsthe schoolwhen she bumped into Ulrich.
"Hey! Watch it-- Aelita? Aelita!" Ulrich huged her,then asked her worridly, "Where's Yumi?" Odd
was a little behind, but he embraced Aelita too then waited for Ulrich's answer. In the middle of sobs,
she told them, "She..almostgotout.. but..but..the guy.. he..grabbed her... She told me... to run..and..
get help." She sniffled. Odd cuddled her and told her, "Aelita, I know something that'll wipe those
tears far from your face..." Aelita looked at him with doubt. "Jeremy! Give him a call... he's been
worried sick!" Aelita smiled slightly and took out her cell phone. "Hello?" Said a dull, sad and scared
voice. "Hello Jeremy!" Jeremy fell backwards in his chair, and she heard a THUMP. "Aelita! Your
okay! Is Yumi there too?" Aelita started to sniffle again, but couldn't pour tears, "They trapped her,
they grabbed her as we were about to escape." She was trying to be as calm as someone who could
loose a friend. "I'm comming Aelita." Thats all she heard, before the line went dead. "So? What did
he say?" Odd asked. "He's comming." Aelita smiled, and Odd and Ulrich exchanged looks. A few
minutes later, Jeremy was next to Aelita. "Aelita? I want to tell you something..." Aelita looked at him
and asked knowingly, "Well, what is it Jeremy?" Jeremy blushed and told her, "I know this isn't a
good time with Yumi, missing and all, but I wanted to tell you... I uhh.. love...you.." Aelita ran to
Jeremy and kissed him. Then the soft kiss became alot more pationate. Well, atleast untill Odd butted
in and asked, "Are you two done? Ulrich's still waiting to find Yumi. Right Ulrich?" Nobody answered,
and Odd went to where Ulrich was a few minutes ago. "Ulrich? Buddy? Where are you?" Aelita
grabbed Odd and yelled into his ear, "Oh No! He's going to find Yumi ALONE! We have to find
him!" Odd nodded his head and saluted, "Lead the way!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ulrich's POV
As Aelita and Jeremy were making out and Odd was making his stupid jokes, I decided to go ahead
and look for Yumi. I knew the directions, and I knew I wasn't far. I was a few minutes ahead of them,
so they can be my back up. I can't risk loosing Yumi. That would kill me. She doesn't even know how
I feel about her! Suddenly Ulrich heard a muffling noise, and a slap. "Whats that?" Then it was
answered, "Ow! Don't you know, you aren't allowed to slap girls!" Suddenly he heard another slap.
"OWWW!" Then he heard crying that he knew. Oh GOD! He's slapping Yumi! HE is SLAPPING
YUMI Ok, he's gonna get it now!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As he ran in, he heard the alarm, that must have gone off when Aelita escaped. Why didn't she try to
help Yumi? He wondered. As he quietly entered the building, he saw a big harry guy, and he was
strapping Yumi to a chair! "MMMMMM!" Yumi tried to yell, butshe now had a rag in her
mouth.He saw the guy take out a needle, that ticked him off. "YUMI!" The guy turned around, just
in time to see a foot kick him in the face. He grabbed the thing out of her mouth and undid the straps
to the chair. "Ulrich!" Yumi huged him tight, then some people came in, "Hey did you get Nicotine in
the girl yet... Hey! Your not the doctor!" Then they all attempted to grab Yumi, but Ulrich grabbed her
first. "Come on this way!"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outside: "Aelita? Is this it?" Aelita nodded and replied, "I could never forget it. We got to save Yumi
and Ulrich!" They all rushed inside, and there stood Steve Istope. "Well... look guys! Aelita has come
back... with some friends this time." Heads came up from behind desks.Odd got in his fighting stance,
and Jeremy and Aelita were about to head out the door, untill Steve had some of the people block the
door. Odd jumped over Steve, and landed on a desk, and guess what? It had chocalate chip cookies!
"Mmm! Cookies!" He grabbed one and stuffed it in hismouth as he saw a fist flying towards him.
"Eat cookie!" He jumped over the hand, and sent cookies to Steve's head. "Ahhhh!" Then... just as
fast as Odd found them, they were gone. "Uh oh!" He kickedthe box intoSteve's head, and ran. He
grabbed Aelita and Jeremy and ran for a hallway. They found a small closet that they'd be safe in and
as they opened the door, they heard, "------ I love you." Then they opened the door and saw Yumi
lunged at Ulrich and started to make-out.They stopped, and looked with fright, thinking it was one of
the people who wanted to capture them. They sighedwhen they saw who it was, thenblushedand they
looked like a tomato. "Guys... what are you doing here...?" Ulrich asked really mad. "We got into a
fight... and we ran for the closet... but if you want, we can find another closet..." Odd explained trying
to contain laughter, but not doing a good job.Yumi was still blushing,but gave everyone hugs. "I
wasn't sure I was gonna get out of here... that is untill Ulrich saved me from the Nicotine shot... then
again..." and she traveled into space, with Ulrich along with her. Odd sighed and Aelita giggled.
Jeremy just had a worried expression on his face.
