E.L Origins
ah theres nothing better than the smell of a new chapter
Chapter 5
The day was just beginning and the team were up and heading to school the team was waiting for Rory he was on the bus and would be here soon
"so what do we have today" Grant said
"a load of boring lessons" Sam said
"yea your right" Charlotte said "hey where's Simon shouldn't he be here"
"your right where is he" Sam said as he looked around
"well I'm here" said a voice from the side of them they turned and there was Simon messing about with something in his hands
"what's that" Grant asked the thing in Simon's hands was small it didn't look like anything important but all of Simon's concentration was on it
"well last night I had a thought if xana was to attack we might not realise until it's to late" "so I went to the farm house and created a program that would warn us if there was an attack I then modified these watches to have the program in when ever xana attacks they'll start bleeping and that'll be the warning
So now you all know what the deal is with the watches
"nice one how many are there" Charlotte asked
"well enough for all of us I'm just finishing this one after I did the first one the rest was easy" Simon said putting away a small screwdriver and checking the last watch he gave everyone a watch Rory arrived and Simon explained and gave Rory one too
"so this means we have a way to counter xana as quickly as possible" Rory said
"lets get moving we don't want to be late" Sam said
As the team walked they all asked questions they also wondered what xana might do now that someone was going to fight him and stop him some of them worried about John but they were sure that he could take care of himself the bell rang as they entered and everyone separated losing them selves in the crowds of students Simon, Sam and Grant headed for their first lesson geography while everyone else headed to their lessons
The three boys sat down at the side table close to the radiator they removed their blazers hoping that it would relieve some of the heat it didn't "I hate this room" Grant said
"yea it's annoying but there some things you have to go through" Sam said doodling a picture onto a piece of paper
"what are you drawing Sam" Simon said leaning over to have a look
"nothing important just something from a game"
"ok class today we will be having a more fun lesson and we'll be watching a video" the teacher said
"yea like watching a video is fun I bet it'll just be some stupid documentary" Grant said turning towards the screen
Simons watch beeped once he checked it but it was nothing just a message to tell him the link with lyoko was stable and that there shouldn't be any problem as everyone turned and looked at the screen an image appeared the guys recognised it instantly
the other people wouldn't have the screen shone brightly the guys looked away and shielded their eyes the other people weren't so lucky the guys looked in the hallway and saw that the other lights were doing it to so they closed their eyes fully
"we've got to move" Simon said he stood up so did Grant and Sam they knew what to do and where to go Simon opened the door and heard more shouts and cries for help but they couldn't help them Simon's watch beeped
Grant bumped into some one it was a girl "hey who's there" the girl said
"hey Charlotte is that you" Simon said
"yea who is it" Charlotte said
"it's Sam Grant and Simon" Sam said "are you ok" "yea I saw the xana symbol and then the light started shining so I closed my eyes and tried to head outside and then bumped into you
"lets move we need to get to lyoko" a voice said they all recognised it "hey Rory" they said as the group left the building they opened their eyes and saw that the entire schools lights were bright way too bright for anyone
"come on we can't stand around" Rory said as he started running as the team made their way they were shot at Grant got hit and fell over the team turned to face a team of roachsters "what no way" Simon said as the roachsters fired again
"ok so what do we do" said Rory as the gang dived for cover "right Grant Rory and Charlotte you go me and Sam will take down any of the roachsters that are around" Simon said Charlotte put her hand on Simon's shoulder "you go I'll stay here you need to send them to lyoko"
"ok ready Sam lets get their attention" Charlotte and Sam darted out of cover and threw rocks at the roachsters it got their attention Rory Grant and Simon moved quickly the roachsters didn't even notice "I hope they'll be ok" Rory said as the team entered the hatch and boarded the sledge's and flew down and hit the mattress's
They climbed up the ladder and stepped outside and ran towards the house and headed down the stairs Simon headed to the computer while Rory and Grant went into the scanners and were sent to lyoko
"scanner Rory, scanner Grant, transfer Rory, transfer Grant, virtualization"
The pair of them landed in lyoko in the forest region and was greeted by John "well long time no see" John said smiling
"yea sorry about that" Rory said
"guys the tower is thirty degrees west" Simon said
"right lets move"
At the school Sam and Charlotte were having problems they had taken out two roachsters but there were still about four of them left "ok Sam you go left I'll go right and then we run across to the other side of each other and stomp any of them that get in our way"
"right lets go on three"
"three" they both shouted the roachsters tried to fire at the pair but they were too slow they both then executed the next part of the plan they ran across and stomped two roachsters leaving the last two to hunt them down as the roachsters got close they were surprised as feet were brought down on them all the roachsters were destroyed
"ok we've got to hurry to lyoko" Sam said as they rushed off to the hatch
In lyoko the guys were having their own problems about four groups of hornets and a pair of creepers had joined the party Grant threw his shield at the hornets striking them
while Rory had learnt of a power it allowed him to create shock waves that could go through the ground or through the air when he used it the hornets went haywire and fired at their own kind this also allowed Grant to get a few more kills
they slowly moved forward but got pinned down by some hornets that had flown back and the creepers "oh this is really pissing me off" Simon said he wasn't happy he couldn't do anything to help or could he "guys hold tight I'm coming to help"
Simon set a countdown for the timer and headed for the scanners he stepped in and the program ran creating him a lyoko form and sent him straight away when he landed he looked at him self he was in a ninja style outfit but it was red "ok looks like I'm not gonna be taking the stealthy approach"
He ran off in the direction of the tower and where the monsters were attacking as he got closer the monsters took aim and fired Simon looked quickly to see if he had any weapons but he saw nothing so had to move quickly but he didn't have time the shots were only a few seconds away
As the shots closed in no one could see what had happened as he got hit but all that happened was that Simon stood back up no damage done to him around him an electric field "hmm I wonder" Simon pulled his arm back and whipped it forwards launching a sparking ball at the monsters it hit one dead on and destroyed it
"ok now lets see how you like it" Simon said as he ran forward and kept firing energy balls towards the monsters it was their turn to dodge fire Grant and Rory took their chance and moved with Simon Rory sped up while Grants shield took some returning fire
As they got closer the monsters had set their own ambush the hornets flew behind the three while the two creepers fired Grant got hit and was devirtualized by hornet fire so did Rory, Simon dodged continuously ducking and weaving he couldn't fight back and the monsters knew it
Grant stepped out of the scanner pretty weak so did Rory Charlotte and Sam had arrived and were stepping out of the elevator when the guys came out "you two ok" Sam said as they stepped forward "yea we are ok but Simon is on lyoko trying to protect John on his own" Rory said
"right you two head up to the computer room and send us to lyoko" Charlotte said
"but we don't know how" Grant said
Charlotte picked up Grant by his collar and shouted "then find out"
Grant immediately moved to the elevator Rory followed behind while Sam and Charlotte stepped into the scanners and waited to be sent to lyoko
In the computer room Grant and Rory we looking for something that could tell them how transport them to lyoko they noticed that Simon had written something down it read just in case I'm not here to do it type in lyoko send program it'll activate the scanners "nice one" "guys we know how to do it" Rory said into the head set
They did exactly what Simon had wrote down and sent both Charlotte and Sam to lyoko the coordinates were exactly the same as the ones Simon had put in when he sent him self
as they landed and ran towards Simon's position they could only stand and watch as Simon got hit and was devirtualized "ok you bastards your going down" Charlotte said as she rushed at the monsters and destroyed two of the groups of hornets Sam followed behind and rushed ahead taking out the creepers with his two katanas
John ran after them as they headed for the tower they reached it in time as xana started to turn up the lights in the computer room the return to the past trip activated and the day began again
The guys once again sat down to watch the video and Grant was right it was a boring documentary the rest of the day was uneventful everyone met up at lunch talked for a bit and they waved Rory off jokingly as he caught the bus and headed back to his house
As the gang split up Grant was thinking about what happened and how he hated getting shot by those roachsters
That's it for another chapter that little sentence at the end will play an important part later on also I hope you like this story
