Here's chapter 3! Oh, and for reference purposes, Yumi's parent's actually know about William.
A figure crept up to the dark house and pressed the doorbell button marked "ISHIYAMA". Soon Mrs. Ishiyama answered the door. "Is Yumi home?" the figure inquired. "Why, yes William, please come in. Mrs. Ishiyama went to get Yumi and William made himself comfortable on the Ishiyama's couch. Yumi entered the room and stopped. "No. Get out right now. I don't like you!" William's face bent into a snarl. "Well, Ulrich's not the right guy for you! He doesn't protect you!" "You were the one who stabbed him with a chair!" she yelled. "Look, William, now's not the best time. How'd you get in here anyway?" "Your mother let me in." he replied. "Well I'm technically not supposed to be seeing you OR Ulrich right now, so just leave!" "Fine. But you are making a big mistake with Ulrich." He gave her a final warning before he left.

Ulrich's Dorm
Ulrich paced back and forth on the carpet. "I'm worried about Yumi. Something doesn't feel right…" "Oh, cheer up, she's resourceful, she'll be fine." Odd said optimistically. "Somehow I doubt that…"

Jeremie's Dorm
The computer beeped loudly, causing Jeremie to jolt awake. He examined the screen. It was XANA! He pulled out his cell phone with lightning speed and called Ulrich, Aelita, and Yumi in quick succession. He needed only say "It's him." and they knew what to do. In approximately five minutes they were in the sewers, speeding on their skateboards and scooters to the factory.

Transfer!
Virtualization!
"Okay, you guys mop up the mess and I'll send Aelita to you. Here's your vehicles." Jeremie said as he sent them the vehicles. "Oh, look, XANA sent us a welcoming committee!" Odd said sarcastically. "Odd, just shut up and get those blocks." Ulrich said, annoyed. "Aye aye, captain!" Odd said as he smirked and fired.

In the city
A dark cloud was beginning to form over the city. Lightning flashed. Thunder rumbled. Suddenly, as if on cue, a torrential downpour took place. Within minutes, at least five inches of water was on the ground. A news team was set up on site. "A sudden freak storm is currently dumping large amounts of water on the Kadic area. Forecasts predict up to two feet of rain in the next hour. Evacuation in most definitely a necessary action to take if you live in this area. We'll keep you posted as further developments warrant-" The broadcast was interrupted by a large wave that came crashing through the street, instantly sweeping the TV crew and their van down the road.

At Kadic
Jean-Pierre Delmas was working late. Again. He sighed. Of course those certain few students had to get in trouble again. And again. He stopped. He could have sworn his feet were cold- He looked down to see two inches of icy water on the floor of his office. "What the- Jim!" he yelled. "Reporting for duty, sir!" "Tell all students to go to floors three and four of their dormitories. There is a severe flood." Jim ran off to warn the students.

At the Factory
'Uh, guys, I think I know what XANA's trying to do… the news is, well it was on…" Jeremie said nervously. "What is it?" Yumi asked, deflecting a laser blast from a Krabe. "XANA's causing massive flooding!" Jeremie said. "Oh no! My parents! Quick, Jeremie, call my parents. Their number is 256-348-9438 (A/N not a real number, had to make up something). Please hurry!" Yumi pleaded. Jeremie dialed the number and notified Yumi's parents. Just then, the smell of acrid smoke filled the air. Jeremie looked down in horror, water was seeping into the factory and had already caused large amounts of electrical smoke! "Guys, we have water in the factory, if that water reaches the supercomputer we are dead! Hurry up!
MWAHAHAHA! I am the MASTER of cliffys! I'll update when I get chapter 4 written. Until then, read and review!
