Okay, I know that you're all going to think i'm a liar. But i'm not. Trust me. I had this chappy already written out before anyone reviewed, I did not steal LadyKyra13's idea. Anyways, here's what's going on.

This chapter is dedicated to LadyKyra13, because se correctly guessed what Avery would look like.

Honorable Mention to Fox Kitsune, because she guessed part of it.

Lil Jean gets mini marshmellows because she guessed.

Come on people, don't be afraid to guess! I had only 3 people guess. 3 people! That's pathetic, it borders on insulting! No one is going to think any worse of you for reviewing, unless you flame me. Trust me. Reviewing only helps the writer. (and come on, who doesn't want mini marshmellows!)

Sorry if it seems like i'm raggin on you people, i'm kinda frustrated with some things. Well, heres the chappy!


(Avery P.O.V.)

I step into the golden tube, and wait for something to happen. The doors close, and I feel that feeling come over me again. I hate enclosed spaces. I start hyperventilating uncontrollably. Jeremie starts saying something, but I can't hear him. I feel myself sinking into the fetal position. Light starts blasting me at every angle, and out of nowhere, wind starts blowing hard. I feel myself rise about a foot in the air and I close my eyes. I feel nauseous and then nothing. Blissful nothing. I open my eyes to find myself falling down. I land on my feet but they collapse underneath me.

"Woah there. Are you okay?" Odd rushes over and catches me before I hit the ground. My body is trying to hyperventilate, but nothing is happening. I can't even breathe. I try to calm myself down before speaking, trying to get the logical part of my brain in control again. I glance at Odd, and do a double take. He looks completely different. He's still wearing purple, of course, but he has a strange similarity to a cat. He's wearing a light pinkish shirt with a purple vest overtop. The vest has a symbol of a dog peeing, which is pretty funny. He hasn't got any sleeves, and his vest is connected by yellow suspenders to his pants, which are the same color as his shirt. He's wearing yellow knee pads, but the most striking features are his tail and his gloves. His tail is long like a cat's, with yellow stripes. He has on long gloves that go up past his elbows, but the hands are like cat paws. Amazing, but I try not to show my shock.

"Yah. I'll be okay." I try standing up, but I still feel really weak.

"Avery are you okay? The scanner detected something wrong with your body during transfer." Jeremie's voice says.

"Jeremie? Are you here too?" I ask looking around.

"No, he stays in the control room. He pretty much just tells us when monsters are coming." Yumi says. I've got to admit, my cousin looks pretty good as a geisha!

"That's cool. And yah, I'm fine." I force myself to stand up to reassure everyone.

"What happened?" Ulrich asks. I look at him, he's changed too. He's basically your average, normal, teenage, yellow samurai.

"I have claustrophobia. I hate being in an enclosed space. I started involuntarily hyperventilating while I was in there. I'll be okay, seriously."

"So guys… how does she look?" Jeremie asks. I look down at myself and give a gasp of surprise. I've changed just as much as they have!

"I didn't have time to create an account, so the computer picked random weapons and clothes. Don't keep me in the dark guys, how does she look?" Jeremie says impatiently from nowhere.

I look like Odd. Except not quite. Same basic principal outfit, but differences are easy to spot. I am wearing a darker shade of purple, and everything is slimmed down to make it extremely form-fitting. I'm not wearing a pink shirt underneath the vest so you can see my stomach, and the pants hug my waist firmly. I have cat-like shoes and paws, except the paws are not as noticeable as Odd's. They're smaller, and the gloves go all the way up to my shoulders. I look behind me and see I have a tail that's even longer than Odd's. I reach up and feel my ears, they are long and pointed. Even longer than Aelita's.

"I can only think of one way to describe it Jeremie." Odd says looking at me.

"What's that?"

"Holy shi-," He starts to say than looks at me, "I mean holy crap." I give him a slight nod of approval while everyone else looks stumped.

"Odd? Did you just refrain from cussing?" Yumi asks.

"Yah, so?"

"Why? You always cuss, it's like a part of you." Odd looks somewhat ashamed as he looks at me. I'm sure if he could, he would be blushing.

"I'll tell you later…" He says quietly.

"Guys, we still need to figure out her weapons and special power." Jeremie says.

"I have a special power?" I ask. Ulrich disappears in a burst of yellow light, and suddenly there's one in front of me, and one on each side. The ones on the sides are resting on my shoulders.

"Yup." They all say at the same time. The ones on the side of me all of the sudden fly up into the air about ten feet and stay there.

"You have super speed, the ability to clone yourself, and the ability to fly too? That's not fair!"

"Yumi! Put me down!" The ones in the air say. I look over and see Yumi has a pinkish aura around her, she looks like she is concentrating very hard. She stops and the two Ulrichs drop out of the sky. At his word, they fuse back together to become one. I look over at Odd, who looks like he's in a trance.

"Odd? Are you okay? Odd? Odd!" He doesn't respond.

"Leave him alone Avery, he's having a vision."

"He has visions?"

"Yah. He has visions of the future."

"Do they always come true?"

"Yup, always." Odd seems to snap out of it.

"Woah. That was interesting." He says. "We're having beef tacos for dinner tonight. And they're actually going to be edible!" He says, but something tells me he's not telling the truth….

"Alright! I can finally be full for once!" Ulrich says jumping into the air.

"Hey what's that?" I ask pointing at a strange block that walked up. A ball of purple energy just shot out of my finger, hitting the block and it explodes. I step back surprised.

"Woah! I think I just found my weapon!" I say. My finger still feels normal, even though I just annihilated a block by pointing at it.

"Sorry guys, I wasn't paying attention. Unfortunately it was a scout. That means XANA knows we're here and he's going to send more monsters." As if on cue, I see a large mechanical crab appear out of the sky. It drops down in front of Ulrich and he steps back surprised. The crab takes advantage and opens fire. Ulrich is hit twice, but he recovers and uses his samurai sword to deflect shots. A spinning circular object comes out of the sky and pierces the crab from the top. It flies back to Yumi and she catches it. She folds it back into it's original shape, which looks like a Japanese fan.

"Ulrich, you have 25 life points left." Jeremie says. Odd pulls me aside looking worried while Yumi goes to Ulrich.

"Avery, my vision wasn't about dinner. It was about you and me. A monster called a megatank will fire at me and I'll get thrown into the digital void. The digital void is anything that is not the land, it's the empty space around it. When something falls into the digital void, it's gone forever, it can't be brought back."

"No. I won't let it happen." I say firmly. Odd just looks at me hopelessly.

"Everything in my visions always come to pass. It will happen. I just wanted to say before I die that I enjoyed meeting you, and that I think I love you." He says. I just stand there dumbfounded.

"Odd… no…." I start to say, but Odd cuts me off by pressing his lips to mine. I hear Yumi and Ulrich cheering in the background, but I don't think Odd cares. I don't pull away from the kiss, but I don't return it either. Odd steps away, give me a smile, and does a backflip. He turns around and shoots a block that had just appeared.

Is this what love feels like?

Yumi and Ulrich quickly join the fight, decimating any monsters that appear. I still just stand there, I can't seem to make my legs move. I see Aelita hiding behind a small rock. (A/N: I think I forgot to mention that this is in the desert region.) A large shiny black ball appears behind her, and she doesn't notice. XANA's symbol appears on the shell, and I realize that it's a monster!

"Aelita! Look out behind you!" The ball shifts it's focus from Aelita to me. I gain a little control over my legs and start backing up. It opens up, I see XANA's symbol right in the center. I feel it's about to fire, so I jump to the right. The beam just barely misses my feet, I have amazing agility all of the sudden. I think it comes with being a cat. The ball readjusts and rolls towards me. I get to my feet and keep backing up. I look behind me and see I have just reached the edge, what's behind me must be the digital void. Suddenly, I'm scared. More scared then I have ever been before.

"Odd! Help me!" I yell before I can stop myself. I know what's happening, this is Odd's vision. This is the megatank that will send Odd to his death. Odd sees and runs over full speed. The megatank opens up and charges it's laser. I'm desperate. I know if I move, it will save Odd and myself, but my legs won't budge. No matter how hard I try, I can't seem to make them move. The megatank fires, the beam flies towards me at an amazing rate. I feel like a deer caught in the headlights, unable to move. Odd leaps and pushes me away, forcing the beam to hit him. He gets knocked over the edge and he falls.

"ODD! NOO!" I yell with all my might. Unknown to me, Ulrich and Yumi stop and look just in time to see Odd fall. While distracted, they are hit and de-virtualized. I fall to the ground, if I could, I would be sobbing. I reach my hand out, as if I'm trying to pull him back.

"Odd!" I yell one last time and close my eyes. I can't bear to see him deleted.

He's gone, he's gone.

"Avery?" I open my eyes and see Odd lying next to me.

"Odd!" I yell again, but this time in joy. I hug him with all my might. "Odd is it really you?"

"It's me, but how? How did I get back? I was supposed to die…."

"I don't care how it happened, you're alive!" I hug him again. Then, he disappears, I see his wireframe skeleton disassemble and finally vanish. Behind him stands the megatank. I feel anger, anger like I had never felt before.

He's gone again, I let him go again!

I scream out in anguish, feeling all my anger flow through me. I large white blast radiates from me, destroying the megatank and every other monster within sight. I look down and see a crater where I'm standing. I look up in time to see Aelita running towards me, and I fall down. Everything goes black.


I wake up and look around. The first thing I notice is that Odd asleep on my bed laying against the wall. The second thing I notice is that he's holding me tight in his arms bridal style. The third thing I notice is that I'm back in my dorm room. The last thing I notice is that its nearly 1:00 AM. I don't want to wake him up, so I don't move. Unfortunately, I woke him up anyway.

"Hey. How's it going?" He says groggily.

"Odd, what are you doing here? It's almost one in the morning and your sleeping in my room!" I say, trying to be quiet.

"I-I just wanted to make sure you were all right." He says looking ashamed. I can't stand to look at his ashamed face.

"Thank you." I say. He leans down and kisses me gently. I pull away quickly this time.

"No Odd. Please, no."

"What's wrong? Are you afraid of boys?" He says laughing quietly. I don't laugh.

"No… I just…." Odd notices my serious manner and stops.

"What's the matter? You can tell me anything."

"No Odd, I can't. Please, just go. Just go…." I stand up, just to get away from Odd.

"Please Avery, tell me what's wrong. Please, I just want to help."

"Please Odd, just go." I point towards the door. Odd stands up and walks towards me. I stiffen, but he just gives me a tight embrace.

"I'll leave. But I just want you to know that I will be here if you need me." He steps back and gives me that smile again. Then he leaves. I fall back onto my bed and cry myself to sleep.

(Odd P.O.V.)

I close her door carefully and walk back to my room. As I do, I finger that little key in my pocket. Avery never asked how I got into her locked room…. I walk back to my dorm and go inside. Ulrich has been asleep for probably hours. I silently undress and lay down in bed. As I drift off to sleep, I can't help but see Avery's pained face as she tells me to leave.

Why won't she tell me what's wrong?


Muahaha, little cliffy! Basically all of the next like, ten chapters are going to be from Odd's P.O.V. because if you could see what was going on inside Avery's head, it would spoil the fun! I promise some very interesting developments, but it's probably have to turn the rating up. At least to a 'T'. Sorry, that's how the cookie crumbles into the milk. I like cookies in milk... :P

I want you all to review. Reviewing is what makes the whole thing worthwhile! See if you can guess what's going to happen in the next chappy, I already have it totally planned out!
