:Missing:

Ch. 3:

Last Time: "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.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suddenly there was a knock on the door before it bursted open. "Surprise!" Several henchmen grabbed Yumi and Aelita and some of them held back Odd, Jeremy and Ulrich. Ulrich bent down and crawled through the legs of one guy but someone noticed and yelled, "Bill! Close your legs!" Bill, apparently the one who Ulrich was crawling under immidiatly closed his legs crunching Ulrich in them. "Odd! Help!" Odd ran over and tickled the guy making him loose his grip. Ulrich got free and ran for the direction of Yumi and Aelita's screams. Jeremy who was VERY mad climbed onto one of the henchmen and had fire raging in his eyes. He grabbed some of one of the henchmens hair and made them tear. Odd then ran in the direction, after Ulrich. As Ulrich reached a corner he peaked his head and saw Yumi and Aelita being strapped down and getting something stuffed in there mouths. Ulrich was about tojump out, when someone grabbedhim. "Hey boss. Look who we have." He got picked up and brought to Steve. "Well hey there. You must be Ulrich. The protective one. Sorry kid, but Yumi and Aelita have to have there... shots." He smiled a big toothless grin. He grabbed the injector and took it to Yumi, he took another and gave it to another doctor and he went to Aelita. "Okay on my mark. Now." They injected the Nicotine into Aelita and Yumi. There eye's got big and then they fainted. "Uhh doc?" Steve looked at the other doctor with a mean look and snarled, "What now?" The doctor looked from Ulrich who had tears falling from his eyes and who was attempting to bite the guys hand, to Steve and asked, "How much nicotine was out into them?" Steve looked at the tube his eyes wide eyed. "Oh my god!" He yelled. "We gotta get them to the hospital!" The man holding Ulrich dropped Ulrich and wandered away not wanting to be in this mess. As Ulrich walked over to Yumi, Yumi didn't move. Ulrich cried again and cursed at Steve who reluctantly took it as he was agreeing.

Yumi's dream/POV:

"Ulrich? Where are you?" She looked around and saw white everywhere. "Hello? Is anyone here?" She heard an echo. Suddenly she heard crying. Her eyes poped open. She saw a tear filledUlrich in a white box. She started mumbling, "Where are we Ulrich?"Ulrich looked up, and saw her and shouted for joy. "Yumi! Oh Yumi! We thought we lost you!" Yumi again asked, "Where are we Ulrich?" Ulrich explained, "That jerk gave you n overdose and you passed out so he turned himself in and your on your way to the hospital. You were poisoned more than they ment to... Oh I'll kill them!" He started loosing his temper 'oh he's so cute when he looses his temper.' I giggled, and Ulrich noticed. I saw him get irritated at me giggling but suddenly soft lips pressed against mine and I was silenced. 'Well thats a new way to make someone silent...' I then returned the kiss, and it soon became a 'who can kiss better' game. I think Ulrich won! After that, we arrived at the hospital. I learned thatUlrich had begged the doctors to be alone with me on the ambulence and they granted it! He sure has away with words. "Ulrich? Where's Aelita?" I suddenly remeber Aelita. Ulrich closes his eyes and I see him put on the famous 'I-know-but-you-don't-know-i-know' look and I say, "Ulrich, I know you know." I giggled when he blushed. He then told me, "Aelita was poisoned more than you, and the doctors can't tell if she's going to be okay." I was suddenly on the ground crying my eyes out. Then Ulrich came over and gave me a kiss. I sighed and attempted to do what Odd would do... be positive. "So she'll be okay... we need her, she needs us... she'll be fine." I told myself. Ulrich changed the subject and scatched his neck nervously. "So...uh.. does that kiss in the closetmean that we are... boyfriend and girlfriend?" Yumi thought about what happened in the closet.

Flashback:

"Yumi. I need to tell you something... If something ever happens I'd hate myself for not telling you." Yumi looked at Ulrich with hope in her eyes waiting for this moment. "Well?" Ulrich looked at her and stuttered, "I... I.. I love you Yumi." Then I lunged at him... literally and we embraced and kissed. Then terror shot through us as we now had an audience. Whew! It was only Odd, Jeremy and Aelita. Oh shoot!

"Yea. I guess." (awww!)

Btw: Jeremy and Odd aren't taking this well eather. Jeremy because he loves her, and Odd because he has a slight crush on her but knows Jeremy and her are dating (yea.. they are) and because well... they ARE friends. So everyone was seperated, but all shared the tears. They all thought one thing... 'Steve is gonna pay.'
