Chapter 9- XANA's Disappearing
(Flashback)
Laura woke up to see it was dark outside again. She looked at the clock that sat by the bed. It saw five. She had slept over twenty-four hours. She got up, and she headed to the balcony. She stood out there. Laura heard someone walked out there. It was Jeremy.
"Hi Laura"
"Hi Jeremy, I'm sorry for trying to kill you all."
"It is ok, Laura. You were under XANA's spell."
"Thanks Jeremy" Laura said as she hugged Jeremy.
"No problem" Jeremy said as he returned the hug back. Laura knew that her friends would be there for her.
XANA sat in a dark room. He was angry that Laura got away. He only had a few shadows left. A boy walked up to him.
"I have a special job for you, boy. Your job is to get close to Laura. She will be mine again." XANA said.
"Yes Master, she will be yours again." The boy said.
"Good" XANA said.
Jeremy let Laura go.
"Let's make breakfast for everyone." Laura said.
"I don't know how to cook."
"I will teach you. Let me change first." Laura said as she went back in the house.
Laura and Jeremy were in the kitchen. Laura was showing Jeremy when it was the right time to flip to pancakes. The smell from the pancakes woke everyone up. They headed to the table where they found plates that had stacks of pancakes on them.
"Did you do this Dad?" Aelita asked.
"No, I didn't." Franz said.
"Where is Jeremy?" Yumi asked.
"I don't know. Have anyone seen Laura?" Odd said. Jeremy came out of the kitchen with flour all over him.
"What happen to you?" Yumi said trying not to giggle.
"I don't want to talk about it." Jeremy said.
"Did you cook breakfast?" Aelita asked.
"I helped, but you should thank the real cook." Jeremy said. Laura came out. She also flour all over her. She had a plate of pancakes in her
"Did you two get into a fight?" Odd asked as he got up. He walked over to Laura.
"No, the bag flour rip, so Jeremy and I got it all clean up." Laura said. She putted the plate of pancakes on the table. Odd grabbed Laura's hand. He led her to chair next to him. He pulled it out, and Laura sat down. Then he pushed the chair in.
"The pancakes look great." Ulrich said.
"Dig in" Laura said.
After everyone was done with breakfast, Laura and Odd cleaned up the table. Laura washed the dishes. After she was done putting the clean dishes away, she headed to the balcony. Odd joined her.
"Odd, I'm sorry for trying to kill you."
"Laura, you were under XANA's spell. You didn't have any control." Laura just stood there.
"Still, I shouldn't have tried to kill you."
"Laura, you are the strongest person that I know, but sometimes you need help. No matter what, remember we have your back. We love you for you not anyone else. " Odd said as he wrapped his arms around Laura.
"Thanks Odd" Laura said. There was a sound of a door being broke in. Ulrich ran up Laura and Odd. He looked worried.
"What's going on?" Odd asked.
"Someone broke down the front door." Ulrich said.
"Who broke the door?" Laura asked.
"A shadow" Ulrich said.
"What? I thought Laura killed XANA and all of his shadows." Odd said.
"No I didn't. XANA got away before the warehouse. I was too weak to escape." Laura said.
"Odd, please get Laura out of here." Ulrich said as the shadow showed in front of them.
"Give me the girl and no one will get hurt." The shadow said. By now, Jeremy, Aelita, Yumi, and Franz were behind the shadow.
"You will never get her." Odd said as he stood in front of Laura. Little did they know, a boy showed up behind Laura on the balcony. He grabbed her. Laura let out a scream. Odd turned around to see what was going on. Laura was trying to fight with the boy.
"I got you finally." The boy said. He had a mask over his face.
"Let her go." Odd yelled.
"Master will be please that I got his queen." The boy said. He was just about to turn to take off, but Laura hit him in the face. Laura was able to get her arm free. She reached her arm out to Odd.
"No you don't." Odd said as he grabbed Laura's hand. He pulled as Laura kept on hitting the boy. The boy finally let Laura go.
"Fine, if you want to fight, you will have to save your friends." The boy said as a ball formed in his hand. It got bigger. He threw it at Ulrich, Yumi, Jeremy, Aelita, Sam, and Franz. They were pulled into the ball, and the ball came back to the boy. It went small.
"Let our friends go." Laura said.
"If you ever want to see them again, meet me at the cliff in two hours. If you don't show up, they will become the master's shadows." The boy said before he disappeared. The shadow disappeared.
"No, it is my fault." Laura said as she fell to the floor. She had tears running down her face. Odd grabbed her, and he helped her up. He pulled her to him.
"It's not your fault. We will get them back. I promise that we will get them back."
"How do we get out of here?" Yumi asked.
"I don't know, but I know that Odd and Laura will save us." Ulrich said.
"What do think XANA will do to us?" Aelita asked.
"I don't know." Jeremy said.
"Laura, are you sure there is no other way?"
"Odd, this is the only way to get our friends back."
"Then I will be with you. I'm not letting XANA have you."
"Let's do it then."
"I don't think they are going to show up." The boy said to XANA.
"I know that they will. They would do anything for their friends." XANA said. He saw Laura and Odd walking up.
"We are here. Now where are our friends?" Laura asked.
"Here they are." XANA said holding up the ball.
"If I surrender to you, would you let them go?" Laura asked.
"Only you promise to be my forever." XANA said.
"I will only if you let them go now. You got to prove it to me." Laura said.
"Ok" XANA said as the disappeared, and the gang was on the ground in front of Laura and Odd.
"Was that wise, Master?" The boy asked.
"I held up my part of the deal. Now it is your part of the deal." XANA said. Odd told the gang to run.
"Here I come." Laura said. As soon she was close to XANA, the boy went up to grab her, but he went through her. Laura disappeared.
"What's going on here?" XANA said. The gang was hiding in a cave that Odd told them about.
"It was a trick." The boy said.
"Go find them." XANA ordered.
"Odd said Laura was in here?" Yumi asked.
"That's what he said." Ulrich said. He didn't see Laura coming from behind him.
"How did you like the plan?" Laura said making everyone jump. Odd walked up next to her.
"That was outstanding!" Aelita said.
"Thanks" Laura said.
"How did you do that?" Jeremy asked.
"I have more powers than I knew about." Laura said.
"So what is going on now?" Sam said.
"We will attack XANA." Odd said.
"How do we do that?" Ulrich asked.
"I have a plan." Laura said as everyone circled around her.
The boy returned to XANA.
"I'm sorry Master. I wasn't able to find them." The boy said.
"They must be up to something." XANA said.
"What are they up to?"
"I don't know, but tomorrow, we will start taking over the world." XANA said as he looked at his shadows.
(End of Flashback)
The gang sat in the cave. Jeremy and Laura headed to the factory. They were getting worried that XANA got to Laura and Jeremy.
"I can't stand it. I'm going to find them." Ulrich said as he got up. All sudden, Jeremy and Laura returned. Laura was in her Lyoko form holding a small box.
"Guess what! I found something that might help us beat XANA." Jeremy said. Laura opened it.
"What is it?" Yumi asked as everyone circled around Jeremy and Laura.
"It is the crystal of Lyoko. I found this in front of the scanner. It had a note from Eric Hopper saying it was the crystal of Lyoko, and it might help me during the fight with XANA." Laura explained. There was a huge noise outside of the cave.
"It looks like XANA wants to get started." Odd said.
"Then let's bring the fight to him. I'm sick of him coming back." Laura said.
"Are you sure that we should?" Aelita asked.
"If you don't, I will. I'm not going to stand around while the world get destroy. We had beat XANA once before, and I know that we can do it again. Who is with me?" Laura asked as she putted her hand in the middle.
"I'm with you." Odd said as he putted his on top of Laura's.
"Well, if you are going, I'm in too." Ulrich said as he putted his hand on top of Odd's.
"I can't let you all have all the fun." Yumi said as she putted her hand on top of Ulrich's.
"We have family. We can't let anything happen to them." Aelita said as she putted her hand on top of Yumi's.
"We won't let him win." Jeremy said as he putted his hand on top of Aelita's.
"Let's do this." They yelled.
"What do we have here?" XANA asked. He saw the gang walking up to him.
"This ends right here. We are sick of you coming back." Laura said.
"Let's see you can defect me." XANA said as he threw two dark energy balls at the gang. Laura used her power to put a shield on the gang and block one energy ball. The shield fell, the second ball of dark energy hit Laura in the right arm.
"Nice try, XANA." Odd said. XANA kept on throwing energy balls at the gang. XANA was getting weak. Laura noticed this.
"This is the time to end this." Laura said. The crystal started to glow in Laura's hands. Laura began to transforming. A seal formed under Laura. She went down in the seal.
"What's going on?" XANA asked. Laura came out of the seal. She was dressed in a white kimono. She had a sword in her hand. The gang felt themselves changing. Ulrich grew a little taller, and he had two swords. Yumi got two more fans, and her power increased. Odd got long nails, and his arrows would never miss. Aelita grew wings, and she had two daggers. Jeremy transformed in to a warrior that looked Ulrich, but he had a spear.
"Now this is what I'm talking about." Odd said.
"Let's end this now." Laura said as she charged at XANA. She got him in the chest. Odd used his arrow, and it hit XANA in the left leg. Yumi threw her fans, and they hit XANA in the left arm. Aelita came charging up to XANA, and she got XANA in the right leg. Jeremy used his spear, and got XANA in the right arm.
"You will never win." XANA said.
"I have the power of love from my family, friends, and the people around the world. They are counting on me to save the world. Now stay gone." Laura said as she charged at XANA. She got him in the chest again. He started too disappeared.
"How are you able to destroy me?" XANA asked as he started to fall to the ground.
"I have few things that you don't have, and that is the power of friendship, hope, faith, and love." Laura said as XANA disappeared. The gang could feel themselves turn back into their earth form.
It took the gang a few weeks to recover, but when they got out of the hospital, they were treated like heroes. Everyone that was under XANA's control turned back to normal.
The gang sat on top of a hill over looking the city.
"I'm glad this is finally over." Ulrich said. Yumi rested her head on his shoulder.
"Me too, I was getting sick of XANA coming back all the time." Ulrich said.
"This time he can't come back." Odd said as he watched Laura sleep on his lap. He could see the scar on Laura's right arm where she was attacked by XANA.
"Remember last year time?" Jeremy said.
"Yeah, I made Odd eat mud because he told my secret about me sleeping with Yumi's picture." Ulrich said.
"I got you back." Odd said.
"Well we all grew up a lot." Aelita said as she watched Laura waking up.
"What are you all doing?" Laura asked.
"We were talking about last year." Odd said.
"Oh, is that all?" Laura asked.
"Yeah, I'm glad you are still with us this time." Odd said.
"Odd, she would never leave us." Aelita said.
"We are best friends. Nothing will break us up." Laura said as she got up.
"Let's promise that we will be there for each other forever." Aelita said as she putted her hand in the middle. Jeremy, Ulrich, Yumi, Odd, and Laura putted their hands over Aelita's.
"Best friends now and forever." They said together. They knew that XANA was gone for good. There was no way he could come back. They were happy.
