Chapter 20: Original Fan Fiction

After the Tower was deactivated, the storm ceased. But because of the storm it took an additional week for the planes to get back up and running.

But if any good came out of that, William's request for a speedy trail, Team Kiwi and Project had the pleasure to see him founded guilty on assault and breaking his probation; being sentence to a few years in Juvenile Prison and to be treated at the Psyche Ward during that time.

It was only a slap on the wrist compared to what they wanted, but Fredi seemed to relax after hearing the word guilty.

They also found out that Anax created Xana original to be just a boss on Carthage that went horrible wrong.

At the end of the week, Team Kiwi is finally heading home. They are on the bus heading back to the school as they admired the trophies they are holding.

"I can't believe we were able to go from Underdogs to Champions on our first Tournament," Jeremy said.

"Well, don't forget what Fredi said after the Victory Party," Yumi added.

"If it wasn't for that Virus, this Tournament would have been ours. So if you want to keep that title, train hard for next years match.

"I'm going to miss being in the states," Sissy said. "It's going to be annoying getting back to the school life."

"But at least we can take a break before the in-school Tournaments start up next year," Ulrich replied as he put his arm around his girlfriend.

"So now we can spend some time just relaxing," Yumi added as she leaned closer to Ulrich.

"That doesn't sound like a bad idea," Aelita added as well as she rested her head on Jeremy's shoulder, which caused him to blush.

But then they all looked at their fifth teammate and Ulrich asked. "Hey Odd, you haven't said two words since we got off the plane, what's up?"

"I don't know. I just feel like I am forgetting something?"

"You remembered Kiwi, right?" Aelita asked as they hear barking in the duffle bag next to him.

"Nope, I would never forget Kiwi," Odd replied. "It's on the tip of my tongue, but I just can't remember."

"Well don't think about it, it usually comes back after that," Yumi suggested as the bus entered the school grounds and they can see the entire student body outside to congratulate them.

"Well, time to say hi to our adoring fans," Sissy stated as the bus stopped and one by one they got off the bus to hear the cheers from the crowd.

After hearing the applause and giving out autographs, they started to walk off until they hear a voice yell out from behind them. "ODD!"

They all turn around to see Sam glaring at Odd along with all of the other girls Odd went out with. "Oh, now I remember," then a complete look a fear appeared his face as he looked at his teammates. "Guys, you've got to help me."

But they all just grinned. "Sorry Odd, you got into this. You're going to have to get yourself out of this."

Then the girls grabbed Odd and took him off kicking and screaming. "Don't worry Odd, we will take care of Kiwi till you get back," Jeremy said as they can hear their teammate pleading to the girls while they dragged him off.

"Do you think he will be alright?" Aelita asked.

"Don't worry, I don't think they will do anything that serious to Odd," Ulrich replied. "And if they do, I call his CD collection."

They are all at the cafeteria, besides Yumi, eating dinner as Aelita said. "It has been awhile since those girls dragged off Odd, I hope he is alright."

"I'm telling you, he is fine," Ulrich reassured the pink haired girl.

"That Odd is an annoying one, but he can take care of himself," Sissy replied.

But just then, the girls walked into the Cafeteria and Sam announced. "We would like to introduce the new addition to the school, please welcome, Oddlina."

Then they forced Odd into the room in a dress with a complete make-up job.

As you would all expect, the entire room was filled with laughter as even his own teammates were laughing at him."

"Oh just take a picture, it will last longer," Odd cried out as everyone pulled out their flip-phones and took a picture of Odd's new look and then a bright flash went by as he saw Milly and Tamiya with their cameras.

"That picture is defiantly heading straight into the year-book."

Everyone continued to laugh as Odd had a "just shoot me" look on his face.

With Yumi sitting at the table with her family as she is glad to be back home with her family, but the peace didn't last long as her little brother said. "Oh Ulrich, I can't wait to see you."

He then laughed as she yelled. "Quiet Hiroki!"

"Oh yes, your mother and I have been wanting to talk to you about that," her father said as he placed his chopsticks on the table.

"Hiroki, I am going to..." Yumi whispered to her brother as her mother added.

"As you already know, we saw that match between you and Team Hyper," then Yumi's face started to turn a shade of pink. "We just want to know what your relationship is with him."

"We have been really good friends for a while and now have recently started dating, that's it," Yumi replied as she continued to eat her rice.

But then Hiroki turned his back to the table and hugged himself. "Oh Ulrich, I looovvveee you soooooo much."

"Hiroki I swear if you don't stop it I will..." Yumi said as her hand tightened but was interrupted by the mother.

"Hiroki, face the table. But what have you done with Ulrich when you were alone with him in New York?"

Her face turned bright red. "I didn't do anything like that mom; we just went out to see movies and ate at a few restaurants."

Then Hiroki puckered his lips and started making kissing sounds, as Yumi seems to be on her last nerve with her brother.

"We are just making sure, but is that all you two did?" Yumi's father asked.

"Yes dad, that is all we did," she then stood up. "I lost my appetite, I'm going to bed."

She then walked off as Hiroki continued with what he has been doing.

Yumi then headed to her room and fell onto her bed.

I can't believe my parents would doubt me like that.

She thought as she felt her bed.

But there is no place like home, I can't believe how much I missed my own bed.

Then she heard the phone start ringing, after two rings it stopped and her mom said. "Yumi, it's for you."

"Oh Ulrich, I want to hear voice," Hiroki joked.

"Shut it Hiroki!" Yumi screamed as she grabbed the upstairs phone and answered in a calm voice. "Hello, Yumi speaking."

"Hey Yumi, how was your flight home?" Kristen asked on the other line.

"Oh hey Kristen, well it was good but because of the time change it has gotten really late."

"Oh yeah, the time change. It's actually earlier then when we left, the sun is still out. I hope I didn't catch you at a bad time."

"Nah it's ok, so why are you calling?"

"I just wanted to make sure you're ok; you did seem startled during that trial."

Her hand tightened on the phone. "I'm fine, after he was found guilty."

"I thought that jerk would never get what he deserved, I never did tell you I liked what you did to his face."

Yumi giggled. "Yeah, that felt great."

"And now that he is in jail, Fredi is slowly returning back to his old self. I think I have even started to see him smile once again."

"That's good to hear. So are going to ask him out then?"

"Yumi!" Kristen cried out. "I told you, I'm not too good with that kind of thing."

"Well, you better say something soon. You remember last time when you waiting too long."

A pause came between the lines. "I know, I nearly lost the chance to ever tell him how I felt. Alright, I will ask him next weekend."

"Good to know, but you better not spend too much time on dates, because next year Team Kiwi will beat Team Project fair and square."

Another pause came between the lines. "Um, about that Yumi, remember what Mary did after we returned to the hotel."

"Oh yeah, she didn't let go of his arm until it looked like it was about to fall off, it was so adorable."

"Yeah, about that, let's just say when they were on the news on the After Victory Celebration, her father, the principle, happened to be watching and now is threatening to dispatch the Lyoko Team."

"That's horrible, so Team Project might not be in the Lyoko Tournament next year?"

"It's still undecided until the end of next week, hopefully we get to face off again."

"Yeah, well good luck with that and you and Fredi."

"And good luck with you and Ulrich, since tomorrow is a Sunday, I bet you are going out on a date with him. Am I right?"

Yumi twirled a strand of her hair with her index finger. "Yeah, we are going to do that."

"Well it's probably late were you are, I will let you get to sleep. Night."

"Night." Yumi replied as she hung up the phone.

In Ulrich's room, he is lying on his bed as Odd walked into the door. "Thanks a lot, you're a great pal for helping me," Odd said sarcastically.

"Like I said before Odd, you got yourself into it, you have to get yourself out of it."

Odd then put his hair back to its normal (or at least to him) form. "Well, Sam says we are even and if I promised never to do that again we can still go out."

"I just hoped you learned your lesson this time Odd, because if you do it again she will kill you."

"I know, from now on I will not date anyone else while I am dating one girl."

Then Odd saw his dog. "Come here Kiwi."

But his dog just growled at him. "I think the dress and perfume is confusing your dog," Ulrich replied as he continued to chuckle at his friend's look.

"Oh ha ha."

The next day has come as everyone, besides Yumi, is eating breakfast as Sissy walked up to them with her tray. "Is it ok if I sit with you?"

The group looked at each other with a confused look on their faces. "Sure, why can't you?" Ulrich asked.

"It's just, now that the tournament is over; I thought we would go back to the same ways as before."

"Well, remember what I said Sissy, as long as you don't make fun of us you can hang out with us," Ulrich replied as she smiled.

"Thanks," she said with a smile on her face and sat down next to Ulrich. "I also have another thing to ask you guys."

"What is it?" Jeremy asked.

"If it isn't too much, I would like to try to be a standby on your team," the group became silent as she continued. "I know, I'm not too good at it. But I would like to give it a try, as an "I'm sorry" for all the things I did before."

"I don't see the problem in that, do you?" Aelita asked her team as they shook their heads.

"No problem Sissy, how would you feel being a dog in Lyoko?" Odd joked as she glared at him.

"A dog! I would never!"

Odd laughed. "I was just joking. You can chill now."

"Well how about later today we can head to the Lyoko room and find out what will best suits you," Jeremy said.

"Thanks, I would like that."

Then Ulrich looked at his watch. "Oh shoot, the movie I was going to met Yumi at is about to start. I got to go."

He then got up with his tray. "Wait!" Odd cried out. "Leave your desert; it's not good to waste food."

"Not much has changed after all," Ulrich said as he left his tray and walked off.

After the movie, Yumi and Ulrich are sitting on a bench in the park as Yumi had her head on his shoulder while they are drinking their sodas from the theater. "I can't believe that Team Project might not be at the Tournament next year just because Mary liked Jamie," Ulrich said.

"Yeah, but I'm glad we don't have that problem," Yumi replied. "But you wouldn't believe what my parents thought we might have done when we were at the Tournament."

"Well, did you tell them about that time we slept in the same bed during the time of William's trial because you couldn't get to sleep?"

"No way!" she replied in shock. "If they knew about that, what else would my parents think?"

"I see what you mean, but I can't believe all that has happened because of that Tournament. Who knows what might happen in the next one?" Ulrich asked.

"Well, we will just have to wait till next year."

The End

This screams sequel doesn't it? New teams, new fights, and new heartbreaks, but if you do want me to make one it will be a while till I make it. I hoped you enjoyed reading this.
