X.A.N.A.'s attack CHAPTER 6

Ulrich returned to his dorm and lay in his bed.

"So, how'd it go Romeo?" Odd asked.

"Just great…" Ulrich answered.

Just then the door slammed open. Sharpey was standing in front of it.

"Hey Sharpey, what's up?" Odd asked.

Sharpey looked at him in an angry way, walked toward him and held out her left hand. Before Ulrich knew it, Sharpey was shocking Odd.

"Sharpey… Wha… ahhh!" Odd tried to say.

"Odd!" Ulrich yelled, he looked around to find something to hit Sharpey with but then he just punched her on the back, which did her no harm. She turned around and let go of Odd. Odd tried to catch his breathe.

Ulrich noticed that she had the XANA symbol in her eyes. "XANA!" he yelled.

Odd looked up and saw that Sharpey was about to electrify Ulrich so he jumped on her, which knocked her to the ground bringing Odd along with her.

"Go warn the others, I'll hold her back!" Odd said, Ulrich nodded and ran out of his dorm.

He opened Jeremie's door without even knocking and yelled at him, "JEREMIE, XANA'S ATTACKING!"

Jeremie sat on his bed and said "Laptop." Ulrich went to get Jeremie's laptop from his desk. Jeremie then put on his glasses and checked to see it there were any activated towers. "You're right! Go get Yumi, Aileta and Odd."

"Can't, Odd's kind of busy right now…"

"What's he doing?"

"XANA took over Sharpey and Odd's trying to hold her off!"

"Okay then, just get Yumi and Aileta. I'll meet you at the factory."

Ulrich ran to Aileta's room and told her that XANA was attacking. He then dialed Yumi's phone number and told her as well. Meanwhile Odd was having a hard time with Sharpey.

"I've heard of girls who have crushes on me but not of a girl who wants to crush me!" Odd yoked. "Or, she's just crazy about me!"

Sharpey grabbed his shirt and pulled Odd toward her giving him a kiss. Odd felt a strange feeling then he felt like something was inside of him. Sharpey let go of him and fainted. Odd stood up and looked down at the unconscious girl. Her eyes opened half way then all the way. She stood up and looked at Odd.

"Odd? Wha… What am I doing in your dorm?" She asked but Odd didn't answer. "What's wrong with your eyes?" Odd eyes were now replaced with XANA symbols and he looked at Sharpey in a weird way like he was confusing her for someone else.

"Odd, don't scare me!" Odd smiled and pushed her to the ground and her cell phone fell out of her pocket.

Sharpey quickly grabbed her cell phone, got up and started running. But Odd didn't run after her, he was calmly walking toward her. When Sharpey got out of the building she paused for a minute to catch her breath when her cell started ringing. She took it out of her pocket and saw that she had Odd's cell phone.

"How did I get Odd's cell phone?" She noticed that it said Jeremie on the ID so she answered it. "Hello, Jeremie?"

"Sharpey?" Jeremie said in a scared voice, he thought that she, or XANA, had done something bad to Odd. "Are… are you…"

"Jeremie you have to help me! Odd is chasing me and his eyes have been replaced with this kind of symbol!"

"XANA took over Odd." He whispered to himself.

"What?"

"Go to the woods and there you'll find a drain that leads to the sewers. Go in and take the skateboard that's there."

"Okay…"

"Keep going straight and when you see a dead end, there must be some stairs there, so climb them. You will end up in front of a factory."

"What do I do there?"

"Just wait. Oh and try to not be seen by anyone specially Odd."

"Got it! Bye."

In the factory and Lyoko - (desert region)

"Jeremie is Odd okay?" Yumi asked.

"No, XANA has taken over him." Jeremie answered.

"What about Sharpey?" Aileta asked.

"She's coming here."

"Are you crazy Jeremie, she can't know about Lyoko." Yumi said.

"She'll have to if we keep going in this rate."

"What'd you mean?" Ulrich asks.

"Well, Ulrich you have thirty life points, and Yumi, you have twenty life points. If you two get devitalized before Aileta gets to the tower the skipazoa will steel her memory!"

"Yeah but–AHHH!" A krab had just devirtualized Yumi.

"YUMI!" Jeremie yelled in an angry voice.

"Come down Jeremie, Aileta still has me." Ulrich said.

"Ulrich, watch out!" Aileta yelled pointing at the krab but it was too late, it had shoot Ulrich with it's laser.

"Ulrich you only have ten life points left!" Jeremie yelled from above.

Ulrich ran toward the krab and destroyed it with his sword.

"See Jeremie, Aileta still has me." But Ulrich spoke too soon, two tarantulas had just appeared and one of the shot Ulrich on his chest as he was turning around.

"ULRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICH!" Jeremie screamed so loud that Aileta had to cover her ears.

"Jeremie, come down! I'm close to the tower all I have to do is get there."

"What about the tarantulas Aileta?"

"Then bring Sharpey!" Aileta suggested.

"I don't know… how are you sure that we can trust her…" Jeremie looked at the screen and saw the skipazoa. "AILETA WATCH OUT!"

The skipazoa stretched out his tentacles and picked up Aileta. In no time at all it started to steel her memory.

Just then Yumi and Ulrich came out of the elevator.

"What's wrong Jeremie?" Yumi asked, she looked at the screen and saw what was happening.

Jeremie opened a window that had videos that the cameras in the factory were recording. One of them had Sharpey standing on the bridge.

"Ulrich, go get Sharpey and then get her to the scanner room. Yumi you keep a look out for Odd." Jeremie finally said.

Ulrich and Yumi looked at each other then at Jeremie and nodded. They hurried to the elevator and then to the bridge.

"Sharpey!" Yumi yelled when she and Ulrich got to the bridge.

"Yumi, Ulrich, what's going on? What are you doing here?" She asked.

"No time to explain, just follow me." Ulrich said pulling her arm.

"But… I…" She looked back and saw Yumi standing in the middle of the bridge.

They went into the elevator and Ulrich pressed the button to go down.

"Ulrich, What going on? Where are you taking me?" Sharpey said.

"To Lyoko."

"Where?"

The elevator door opened and Sharpey stepped out and saw the three scanners. Two of them were open while the third one was closed.

"Get in."

"What?" Sharpey said but Ulrich was pushing her toward the one on the left. Sharpey then said, "Are you trying to do some kind of experiment on me or something?"

"No! Just get in!"

"Whoa!" Sharpey almost tripped when Ulrich pushed her really hard into the scanner. When she stepped in the door automatically closed.

"HEY! LET ME OUT! ULRICH, ARE YOU CRAZY!" Sharpey said banging on the door so it'd open.

"Jeremie, she's ready!" Ulrich yelled.

"Okay." Jeremie's voice was heard from the speakers above. "Transfer Sharpey." Sharpey's hair went flying into the air. "Scanner Sharpey." She closed her eyes because of the bright light. "Virtulization."

When Sharpey opened her eyes she was in a different world. She was floating in the air but then fell to the ground. She stood up not noticing the skipazoa in front of her, she instead carefully examine herself.

She had a red shirt with a skeleton on it and a striped long-sleeved under shirt that were two colors: black and dark blue. She had a gray mini skirt with eight silver stars around her waist. She also had kind of like black tights that had blue flames on it. And finally, her hair was now tied into two pigtails with black string.

She grabbed one of the stars around her waist and held it in her hand.

"Sharpey!" Jeremie's voice boomed above, Sharpey jumped from the loud yell and accidentally threw her star at the skipazoa's head (close to where the XANA symbol is…).

"Jeremie?" She said looking at the skipazoa. "Okay little star thing, it'd be okay if you go boom right about now." At that moment the star turned red and then exploded right on the skipazoa's head. "Cool! At least someone listens to me!"

She saw that the skipazoa let got of Aileta and backed off. But the Two tarantulas were still there and pointing at her.

"I don't know what this place is but if it's just like a video game I'm in and I'm winning it." She whispered to herself then she threw another star between the two monsters and looked embarrass. "Okay what did I say to make the other star explode? …Boom?" The star exploded and made the two tarantulas fall of both sides of the edge before they could fire at her. "Score!"

Sharpey looked at Aileta and walked toward her.

Aileta opened her eyes and Sharpey screamed.

"Aileta, is that… is that you?" She said in a terrified voice.

Aileta nodded and Jeremie said from the speakers, "Sharpey you have to get Aileta to the activated tower."

"Huh?" Sharpey said.

"Just go straight then you'll see like a tower that probably has monsters around it."

"Okay first of all where am I? Second, how come Aileta is here and third…?" She was interrupted by Ulrich's voice.

"Jeremie virtualize vehicles so they could go faster cause it seems that Odd's here."

"Okay, but go to the bridge to give Yumi a hand. I'll send the hover board." Jeremie said and Ulrich went to the elevator.

Sharpey looked at the Lyoko sky confused then she looked down and saw the hover board appearing. "I don't want a hover board! Can you send me like a motorcycle or something?"

"Okay I'll send you Ulrich's vehicle then."

"Blimley!" Sharpey said, she hopped on the motorcycle when it appeared and Aileta hopped on the hover board, "I don't have the slightest idea of what's going on but I've always wanted to ride a motorcycle! Come on Aileta let's get you to this 'Activated Tower'!"

Sharpey made the Motorcycle go really fast that Aileta had a hard time catching up to her.

"Yahoo!" Sharpey yelled.

"AHH!" Aileta screamed.

Meanwhile back on earth Yumi was fighting Odd.

"Odd, I don't want to hurt you." Yumi said.

Odd narrowed his eyes and laughed.

"Hey, just because I'm a girl it doesn't mean that I can't fight!" Yumi tried to hit Odd in the face but Odd was too quick he had moved to the side and then he kicked Yumi in her stomach. Yumi put her hands where Odd had hit her and fell on her knees.

"Hey Odd, didn't you know that guys can't hit girls!" Ulrich had just appeared

Odd turned around and hit Ulrich but missed.

Back to Lyoko…

"Hey Jeremie, where's the activated tower again?" Sharpey asked.

"It must be…" Jeremie said.

"There it is I see it!" Aileta yelled. She got off the Hover board and went into the tower.

"What do I do now?" Sharpey stopped and watched Aileta go in the tower.

"Just wait." Jeremie answered.

On Earth (with Ulrich, Yumi and Odd)…

Odd had just knocked Ulrich to the ground and was stepping on his chest. Ulrich tried to break free but couldn't. Yumi finally got up and ran toward Odd and kicked his back.

Odd got up and electrified both Ulrich and Yumi.

Aileta puts her hand on the screen.

Ulrich and Yumi let out a scream of pain.

The screen shows 'AILETA'.

Odd laughs while watching his friends' pain.

Odd faints and Jeremie yells:

"Return to the past now!"
