The Attack.
Just to say, thanks for all the reviews guys! You lot are sound. Now for the next chapter!
The bell rang loudly through the school corridors as class doors opened and students filed out into the corridors.
"And don't forget your homework for Monday!" Shouted Miss Mare to the class as they all left.
At last sixth period was over and the gang could relax a bit before dinner. Yumi had to go home straight away but not before getting a soft kiss off of Ulrich first. Ulrich, Odd and Jeremie walked along the hall to Ulrich and Odd's dorm to discover a huge hole in it being boarded up by Jim.
"What happened Jim?" Ulrich asked.
"Why don't you tell me?" Jim asked. "First a dog then bugs, you two are in trouble now."
"What are you talking about Jim?" Odd asked desperately.
"You know fine well what I'm talking about." Jim replied sternly.
"We understand about Kiwi but bugs?" Ulrich replied.
Just at that moment Jeremie rejoined them and looked into the dorm.
"Termites." He muttered. "Listen Jim, those termites are from the science lab."
"Oh are they?" Jim asked. "Then show me the container they were kept in then."
So the three boys led Jim down the hall and down the stairs along a couple corridors to the science lab to see every wooden object in the room severely damaged and some metal also damaged.
On a computer screen that was half bitten through there was what remained of the Xana symbol.
The three boys eyed it worryingly as Jim grabbed Odd and Ulrich and took them to the principal's office shouting to Jeremie to clean the mess "they" made.
Jeremie however did not obey and sneaked back up to his dorm to talk to Aelita about the incident.
Jeremie's Dorm"I haven't felt any pulsations Jeremie." Aelita said through the screen. "Should I have?"
"Yes I think you should have." Jeremie answered.
"Okay I'll go for another look Jeremie" Aelita replied.
"And I'll do a scan for an activated tower." Jeremie said and started typing.
Just then the screen flashed, there was a flash of light and a small electrical explosion. Jeremie was sent backwards into his door and knocked out cold. All his equipment frazzled and was burned. Out of small corners and cracks a large group of termites appeared and started scuttling toward the unconscious Jeremie.
The Principal's Office.
"You know the rules Odd, so why do you disobey them by keeping Kipi?" Principal Delmas asked.
"Kiwi sir." Ulrich corrected him.
"Yes, whatever." The principal replied.
"My mother and father work a lot and said that I must take care of Kiwi since they can't." Odd replied.
"Is that so?" The Principal replied.
"Let me tell you that…" Delmas was cut of when a tall figure entered the room.
"You need an appointment before coming in here you!" Principal Delmas Yelled.
The figure wore dark trainers, blue jeans with a brown belt, a black shirt and a leather jacket.
Ulrich looked up at the figure and instantly recognised it as David.
David threw a badge down on the desk and asking loudly. "May I investigate your school?"
"Yes you may." The Principal replied coolly.
"I also wish to speak to these two, alone." He replied stuffing his badge back inside his jacket.
"Very well." The principal replied, a tone of stress in his voice.
Odd and Ulrich followed David outside into the grounds.
The Grounds.
"Ulrich, call your friend Yumi and tell her that it's another attack." He said with a hint of difficulty in his voice.
"What do you mean?" Ulrich and Odd asked in unison.
"You know what I mean." David replied. "After that, get to the factory."
"How do you know?" Odd asked.
David showed him the same badge he had shown the principal. It had the letters, WUI on it.
He flipped it away and ran into the building, where on closer inspection, seemed to be collapsing.
Ulrich and Odd ran while Ulrich phoned Yumi.
"Hello?" Yumi asked on the other end of the phone.
"Yumi! Xana's woken up, meet you at the factory!" Ulrich shouted down the phone.
"Be right there!" Yumi replied, jumping of the bed.
In the school.
David opened every door on the boy's level until he found a door that wouldn't open. He kicked it down to find a boy with blonde hair behind it very close to large termites. He grabbed Jeremie and took him out the dorm into the hall to see a wooden beam fall in front of him. He jumped over it, with Jeremie in his arms. As he began to run the ceiling started to collapse. He had almost made it to the stairs just as the entire ceiling above the stairs gave way and the stairs were flattened by huge pieces of brickwork. David ran to a window to see an open window. He looked out to find all the kids' of the school outside with the staff. He yelled at them telling them he was going to throw Jeremie down and that they were to catch him. They all formed a protective catch area as David dropped Jeremie out the window, the catch was a success. Jeremie had been wakened by the fall and ran towards the factory. David looked back down the hallway and began running as the floor crumbled away along with the ceiling above him. It came down on him with great force as he fell and he landed in the cafeteria under a mass of brick and cement.
Hey guys! I'll post the next chapter tomorrow hopefully; it will be about what happens in Lyoko and what happens to David. But until then farewell and thanks again for the wonderful reviews.
