Chapter 13
Chase to the Factory
Part 2
Ulrich eyes grew large. He started to stutter. "Y-y-yu-Yumi?" Ulrich managed to say. "Run" a Yumi possessed Jeremy said. "I'll take care of them". "Yumi, but how?" Ulrich asked. "I don't know, but go!" she said. "but Yumi" Ulrich started, but Aelita pulled him away. "I have business to attend to" she said. "I'll see you soon, hopefully". She/He turned around to face the 3 other ghosts. A black ball of fire started to grow in his hand. "Remember me?" Yumi called out to the ghosts. The ghosts then switched paths and aimed for Yumi/Jeremy. Meanwhile, Ulrich and Aelita were heading to the factory. They were in the sewers now. "Yumi" Ulrich continued. "Aelita, how?" Ulrich asked. "My guess is that something happened when she was killed. Maybe because she was killed by a specter, so she became one" Aelita replied. They finally reached the bridge connecting to the factory, to see a horrible sight. Another ghost was waiting for them. "No stopping this one, Ulrich" Aelita said. On the other side of the sewers, Yumi/Jeremy was running away from the ghosts. Occasionally, she stopped to turn around and launch a black ball of flames at them. she continued running and eventually tripped over something. A generator. "This must have been where they got the power for the hoses" Yumi wondered to herself. She looked around to see the 3 ghosts still headed towards her. Quickly, she turned around and put her hands on the generator. She then felt great bolts of electricity running through her body. She turned around and started running towards the ghosts. She jumped up in the air and landed on one. She then put her hands to its back. It spun out of control as electricity ran through its body,. "Of course!" Yumi said. "Too much electricity will overdrive a program!". She then jumped off just as it dissipated.
