"What's wrong with him Ulrich!"

"I think I know Aelita, but we need to prop him up so I can look at him."

Aelita immediately began to sing and a small bolder materialized on the ground, and with help from Ulrich she got Odd to lean his back on the rock.

"Now Odd the pain is in your stomach?" questioned Ulrich

Odd quickly and painfully nodded yes as he gripped his stomach harder.

"I know you're in pain but I need to look at your stomach."

Odd painfully nodded again and slowly brought his arms to his sides. Ulrich kneeled down and carefully pulled up Odd's shirt, and gasped in horror. Large burses covered Odd's midriff.

"No…"

"What's wrong Ulrich?" questioned Aelita.

"He's got internal injuries!"

Yumi sat up painfully, "I have no idea what's going on but, we need to get him to a doctor!"

Suddenly new pain erupted within Odd causing him to jerk violently and cough up more blood. Aelita tried to comfort the cat boy but he then went limp in her arms.

"Odd!"

"We need to get him to a doctor now!" Ulrich went to call his bike but Aelita knelt by Odd and began to sing.

"Aelita?"

Aelita cracked her eyes open, "I can heal him…"

Aelita's voice lit u the whole area and pink energy radiated from her hands to Odd's body making him glow a soft pink. Meanwhile Ulrich and Yumi could only watch and pray Aelita wasn't too late.

Odd looked around, it was nothing but darkness… Where was he? He remembered the pain; he remembered his fall, was he dead! A bright light exploded on in front of him and Odd gasped in horror. He fell to his knees, he was dead…

But then Odd's ears twitched as he heard a noise. He couldn't quite make it out at first but it got louder and louder! It was the sweetest music he had ever heard! Behind him a pink light began to glow. It got brighter and brighter until it out glowed the white light. The sweet heavenly music played on and on and it beckoned Odd straight into the pink light…

Aelita sang her heart out. Odd just couldn't die! She sung until she by some unknown force just knew that Odd was healed, but when she stopped Odd did not stir.

"Odd?"

The elf girl nudged him a little bit but the kitty boy did not react to her touch…

"Odd?"

Aelita's world was falling apart. She buried her face in her hands and started to sob hysterically. Odd was gone and it was all her fault!

"Ae-Aelita?"

Aelita gasped in shock and looked forward to see Odd slowly sit up and stare at her with concern filled cats eyes.

"ODD!" She threw herself at Odd, wrapped her arms around him, and wept on his chest, "Thought I'd- I'd…" Aelita broke down and couldn't control her sobbing.

"Aelita…" He pulled the elf close and kissed her on her forehead, "Shh… Shh.. It's ok Aelita. I'm not going anywhere." Aelita continued to cry so Odd leaned into the embrace and began to rub her back, and give her purrs of comfort.

Ulrich just stared at the scene before him. His best friend almost died, but Aelita was able to save him. Odd and Aelita looked so natural together… HOLY SHIT! Ulrich was hit by a great realization. Odd and Aelita… They could like each other! Ulrich looked to Yumi and she had the same expression on her face. Is this true? If so this can cause major problems. Suddenly Yumi gasped in pain and gripped her shoulder and leg wounds.

"Aelita! Yumi needs your help!"

Aelita's head shot up and the elf girl dashed over to Yumi and began to heal her.

Ulrich looked over to Odd, "Now you have some explaining to do."

"Alright, this is what's going on…"

Odd told them everything that had happened and as Odd told his tale Aelita healed them all one by one.

"…and since you both are safe we just need to save Jeremie. Also currently the French army assisted by the US, Russian, Chinese, British, and some other armies are assaulting X. A. N. A's compound trying to destroy it."

"X. A. N. A.'s gone all out this time." Commented Ulrich

"But now that were free and we have these new powers, X.A.N.A. won't get the world with out a fight!"

Ulrich smiled at Yumi's determination and then saw Odd inspecting his gauntlets.

"I tore them up pretty bad huh odd?"

"Don't worry I can fix them."

Odd pulled off his gloves and Ulrich and Yumi gasped. Soft light violet fur covered Odd's arms from his elbows to the tops of his paw like hands. Odd, noticing this smirked and proceeded to kick off his shoes and pull up his pants legs revealing pawish clawed feet and more light violet fur that stretched from his knees to the tops of his feet.

"What the!" exclaimed Yumi

"Holy…" Ulrich almost swore again.

Odd started to laugh, "You guys should see your faces!" The kitty boy began to double over laughing.

Ulrich and Yumi looked at each other then at Odd then back at each other again and nodded.

WACK!

"Oww! What was that for?"

Ulrich and Yumi just smiled as Odd held his head.

"I feel so loved! Even when you're not possessed by X.A.N.A. you're still trying to kill me!"

Ulrich rolled his eyes and Yumi sighed. Aelita watching the whole scene was happy some things were getting back to normal, but they still had so much to do.

"You guys we need to get going."

Odd looked to Aelita and nodded, "Alright. First I gotta fix these."

Soft purple light radiated from his hands to his gloves and all the blood vanished and all the tears closed up. Then Odd's whole body began to glow a soft purple and all the cuts and blood vanished from his outfit.

Odd looking at the others and shrugged, "I guess while I'm at it…"

The kitty boy walked over to Ulrich and repaired the giant slash mark tears on his chest; then he went over to Yumi and repaired the various tears to her outfit, and finally Odd made his way over to Aelita and the only rip to her out fit was the one on her shoulder. He put his paw on her shoulder to repair the tear and was hit by a vision.

Aelita gripped the shuriken that was imbedded in her shoulder.

"1…2…3!"

"Whoa! That was intense Aelita!"

Aelita blushed, "You saw what happened?"

"Heck yeah! It makes me want to consider calling you Xena instead of Aelita. Now onwards towards battle!" Odd began to charge forward.

"Uhhh… Kitty boy? You might want to take these." Said Ulrich pointing to Odd's gloves and shoes on the ground.

"Huh! Oh Yeah! I was Uhhh… making sure you were on your toes!"

"Right…"

As Odd went to retrieve his gauntlets Aelita walked over to Yumi and gave her a nudge.

"Ummmm…Yumi who's Xena?"

"Oh! She's the main character in the TV show called Xena Warrior Princess!"

Aelita blushed again, "Really?"

"Yep!"

"Ok! Now if Mom over here" gestures to Ulrich, "has no futh"

WACK!

"OWW!"

Ulrich smirked looking proud of himself, "Now we can go."

As they all called up their vehicles Aelita swore she heard Yumi mumble the words humph and boys.

"Aelita?"

She snapped to attention, "Yes Odd?"

"Care to board my board mademoiselle?"

"S-Sure."

Aelita reluctantly got on the board with Odd and the foursome took off.

"LOOK OUT!"

Raul barely managed to dodge the incoming laser fire from the hornets. He had long since lost his tank and he was just surviving on the ground. The armed forces were slowly being pushed back by X.A.N.A.'s machines.

"Odd where are you?"

And as if on cue three hornets above Raul exploded.

"YAHOOOOO!"

A foreign soldier looked up, "What's that?"

Raul smirked at him, "The Calvary!"

Ulrich surveyed the battle, "What's the game plan?"

"We need to find Jeremie ad stop X.A.N.A.!" said Yumi

"Yeah…" Said Odd drifting off eyes glowing soft a purple

"Odd?" Aelita nudged him

"I just had a vision! The tower in the center of X.A.N.A's compound is a pathway to Lyoko and that's where Jeremie is!"

"Really?" Asked Yumi

"This sounds like a real X.A.N.A. trap!" exclaimed Ulrich

"But we have no choice so I need the three of you to distract the monsters! I've gotta plan!"

Odd pulled away and Yumi and Ulrich just shrugged and flew off into different directions into the fray.

"Odd what's your plan?"

"Just watch Aelita; your about to meet an old friend!"

Aelita looked at Odd confused as a purple deck box appeared in Odd's paw. The cat boy then opened the box and a card flew out.

"Wha?"

Odd smirked and raised the card into the air, "I summon you Behemoth the King of All Animals!"

Purple energy emanated from the card and a gigantic form f a beast took shape.

"What in the world?" questioned Aelita

The Behemoth stood towering above everyone. It was a powerfully built creature with dark violet fur along his back and on its forepaws. He also had dark magenta skin, two huge horns protruding from his head, and a long thrashing tail.

At the moment Ulrich shot a fireball destroying a manta when the Behemoth in the distance caught his eye.

"What the…?"

Yumi sliced a hornet and flew towards the awe struck Ulrich.

"Yumi… Did Odd just summon a monster from Yu- Gi- Oh?"

"Well Umm…"

"Oh boy…"

Odd turned to Aelita and winked, "Well here's my stop! Make sure you home by eight and you return the board in one piece!" He dived right off the board.

"Odd?" Aelita peered over the side of the board to see Odd land on the Behemoth's violet mane, "Now I truly see why Jeremie yells at him so mu- AHH!"

Krabes fired at her from below causing her to growl and nosedive towards them materializing sharp rocks all along the way. Meanwhile Odd crawled through the Behemoth's violet mane and swung down his gigantic horn so he was right by his eye.

"Hiya your majesty! I Uhhh… kind of need your help."

The Behemoth's small red eye turned toward the kitty boy on his horn and the great king gave off a low growl.

"Alright! Now here's the plan…"

Explosion's rocked the area; the monsters were pushing the tanks back. They reveled in their victory, but they never imagined the last thing's they'd see were gigantic fangs, drool, and then nothing but total darkness.

"You ATE them! You rock!"

The Behemoth gave off a loud growl and swished his tail back and forward destroying monster after monster after monster.

"Now let's get to that tower! CHARGE!"

The Behemoth roared and charged forward crushing monsters all the way. All attention was now on the Behemoth. Krabes, tarantulas, and mega tanks you name it all banded together in a desperate attempt to hold off the massive creature barreling down upon them; but all their laser fore was met by a purple protective shield thanks to the kitty boy on the Behemoth's head.

The Behemoth the reached the compound and began to smash into it, inching closer and closer to the gigantic tower in the middle.

"WHOOO! When it comes to man vs. machine the beast always wins!"

The Behemoth jumped back and with one final flick of his massive tail he cleared o path leading straight to the tower.

In Sector 5 X.A.N.A. twitched. The destruction of half of the compound was not in the plan. However Phase 3 was about to be completed and Phase 4 would begin!

X.A.N.A's mouth curved into a smirk, "And it marks my arrival to Earth!"

Meanwhile everyone joined Odd who was still on the Behemoth's head.

Ulrich flying around, "Wow, Odd I didn't know you had a twin brother."

"Mua? You think I royalty! COOL!" Odd hopped up and down.

Ulrich all whiney, "ODD!"

"Heh…"

Yumi with her hand on her head, "Oh boy…"

"Well I didn't know summoning Yu-Gi-Oh monsters was a physic power!" said Ulrich

"Well I didn't know that either until about 10 minutes ago…"

"WHAT?" Yelled Yumi

Ulrich glared at Odd, "You risked out lives on a maybe!"

"Well Uhhh…"

Unbeknownst to Odd and the others the tower began to glow brighter and brighter.

Aelita noticing the glow, "Odd look!"

"Wha?"

The rd light exploded in luminosity in front of the gang temporary blinding them and when the light died down Odd's vision cleared in enough time to see a rider less Overboard crash into the ground.

Aelita was gone…
