Well the title of the chapter pretty much gives it away but hope you enjoy!
"WAKE UP!" Aelita screamed as she burst into Kasey's room.
Kasey jumped up and spun around a couple of times trying to find her attacker. Her eyes finally focused and she saw Aelita standing in her room, out of breath.
"What the hell?" The redhead muttered as she still fought to leave the fog of dreamland.
"Hurry, get dressed, Xana is attacking!"
The name Xana snapped Kasey out of whatever sleepiness remained. She threw some jeans and shirt on and was out the door. Aelita was ahead of her already calling Yumi's cell.
Yumi awoke to her phone ringing, "It better be important Ulrich." She muttered.
She answered the phone to hear a very distraught Aelita on the other end, shattering all hope she had of it being Ulrich.
"What? Slow down I can't understand you."
Aelita took a breathe, "Yumi…It's Xana he's attacking, meet at the factory now!"
Yumi jumped out of bed, dressed and ran out the door, leaving in such a hurry, she didn't notice she was being followed.
Kasey ran for the scanners, but froze, "Aelita, who's going to be the operator? You have to go to Lyoko to deactivate the tower."
"Damn." Aelita cursed herself for not having planned for that.
The doors opened and Yumi came running in dragging a familiar looking person behind her.
"Yumi is that…?" Aelita asked.
"Yeah, my brother, Hiroki, he followed me, but there was no time, I explained what I could on the way, he said he'll help."
The two girls just stared at the 16 year old for a moment and then snapped back into action.
"Ok, I'll stay, I think I can figure the controls out, Aelita, Yumi, Hiroki, you go to Lyoko."
Kasey took a seat and the three ran for the scanners.
Hiroki watched as his older sister and Aelita jumped into two of the scanners.
"Hiroki hurry up what's wrong?" Yumi chided her little brother.
"Is it safe?"
"Of course not, now hurry up."
Hiroki smiled at his sister and jumped in the center scanner.
Kasey took a few seconds longer than Jeremy usually did, but she soon scanned the three in and virtualized them.
Aelita and Yumi landed smoothly like they had so many times before. Hiroki on the other hand hit the ground face first with a loud thud. The two girls helped him up. Yumi and Aelita looked much the same in their lyokan form, except they were taller and older looking. Hiroki was the one that shocked everyone.
"Wow! Look at you!" Yumi said.
"What?" Hiroki asked and then he stopped and looked at himself. "Sweet!"
Hiroki was dressed as a ninja in all black, with gold Japanese lettering across the chest. He reached into his belt and found two shuriken.
"These I like." Hiroki laughed.
"Guys I know we all like admiring the latest in fashion, but we have a tower to deactivate."
The gang rushed off through the desert region and soon spotted the tower. A laser hit Hiroki in the chest picking him up off the ground and slamming him into a boulder.
"You didn't tell me it would sting Yumi." He growled at his sister.
"Well pay attention." She snapped back as the group was encircled by four crabs.
The opened fire and Yumi jumped in front of Aelita and started blocking lasers.
"Wow these things are cool looking." Hiroki said as he stared in wide-eyed wonder.
"Hiroki you might want to use those shuriken on the monsters and help your sister and Aelita out." Kasey ordered in frustration at the boys hesitation.
Hiroki let the ancient weapons fly and to everyone's surprise he hit two of the crabs. The explosion caught the other two crabs off guard and Yumi saw her chance. She threw both of her fans which sailed gracefully through the air cutting through the remaining crabs and landing back in her arm.
"So how many times have you done this?" Hiroki asked in amazement.
"Too many"
Aelita sprinted for the tower and soon entered in Lyoko on the screen. Kasey didn't hit the return to the past since no damage had been done, and she soon materialized everyone.
"And I always thought you were a boring, stay in her room and mope, sister."
Yumi punched Hiroki in the arm jokingly and he just laughed. The three met Kasey in the control room.
"Kasey good job, I think you are going to be are new operator for a while." Aelita said.
"I think I can get the hang of it pretty quickly, though I think we need a few more to help us fight Xana."
"Why we did fine?" Hiroki laughed.
Kasey smiled at the younger boys enthusiasm, "Yes, but it's almost never this easy, today was a good start for you, maybe next time Xana will take the training wheels off."
Hiroki just frowned.
"Who are you thinking?" Yumi asked.
"Well, Sissy maybe, and maybe Millie or another younger kid to help Hiroki when we're gone."
They all nodded and headed back to Kadic. For the first time in a few weeks, the four friends smiled and laughed. They still had a purpose here at Kadic.
So what did you think? I know it was short, but I realized I hadn't hada Xana attack and figured it was a good time to bring Hiroki into the picture. Thanks for reading and please review and I promise the next chapter will be much longer.
