Chapter 4

The Promise

Jeremie, Aelita, and Odd were now at the factory. They went to the elevator and rode it to the computer room. They saw Ulrich on the other side of the room unconscious.

"ULRICH!" The 3 screamed in unison.

They ran over to him and Jeremie tried to wake him up.

Ulrich opened his eyes and looked at Jeremie, but Ulrich thought it was Yumi "Yumi?"

"No it's me Jeremie!" Jeremie yelled.

Yumi then turned into Jeremie "Jeremie?" Ulrich said confused

"Yes Ulrich it's me!" Jeremie said "What happened?"

Ulrich stood up and held his head "I don't remember. Yes I do! Yumi!" He ran to the elevator and then looked at Odd and Aelita. "What are you waiting for we got to save Yumi!"

Everybody looked at Ulrich.

Then Jeremie said "Ulrich you need to tell us what happened first."

"Later! We need to save Yumi!" Ulrich screamed.

The others kept looking at Ulrich.

Ulrich looked at the others and a tear came down his face. He hit the down button on the elevator really hard and rode it to the scanner room. He walked into a scanner and ordered Jeremie to virtualize him.

"No Ulrich not with out an explanation" Jeremie said.

Aelita walked over to Jeremie then said "Let him go."

Jeremie looked at Odd.

Odd looked at Jeremie "Do it. I've none Ulrich long enough to no that you can't stop him from doing anything."

"Fine… but go with him." Jeremie said.

Ulrich grew impatient "Jeremie are you going to virtualize me or not?"

"Yes" Jeremie said "But wait for Aelita and Odd."

Right when he said that the 2 just came into the scanner room.

Aelita walked over to Ulrich and put her hand on his shoulder "Yumi is going to be ok."

Ulrich calmed down a little "I know" He said with his head down.

Aelita walked over to a scanner and then the 3 scanners closed.

Jeremie brought up there digital cards "Transfer Ulrich. Transfer Aelita. Transfer Odd. Scanner Ulrich. Scanner Aelita. Scanner Odd. Virtualization!"

They were virtualized into the dessert region.

"I located the tower it is north of your direction" Jeremie said.

Ulrich's POV:

I saw the tower and saw Angel. I used my super sprint and raced off to it.

"Here come your vehicles" Jeremie said "Hey Ulrich! Where are you going?"

I didn't answer.

Aelita and Odd looked at each other. Aelita got on my Overbike and Odd got on his Overboard and raced off to the tower.

I reached the tower in record time and looked at Angel "Where is Yumi?"

Angel smiled evilly and then said "Way up there!" she pointed to the top off the tower.

I looked up and saw Yumi! I used my super sprint to run up to the top off the tower. I didn't make it though I fell to the ground. It was too high!

Odd and Aelita made it to the tower. Odd saw Angel and fired laser arrows at her. He hit her and Angel looked at him.

Aelita stopped the Overbike next to me and got off it then said "Ulrich what are you…"

But before she could say anything else I jumped on my Overbike and flew up to the top of the tower. When I made it there I saw Yumi laying there unconscious. I got off the Overbike and walked slowly over to Yumi I grabbed her and held her in my arms.

Odd shot tons of laser arrows at Angel and managed to devirtalize her.

Aelita entered the tower.

Code

Lyoko

"Tower deactivated" Aelita said.

I was still holding onto Yumi. I looked at her face and saw her eyes open.

"Ulrich?" Yumi said.

"Yes it's me" I said.

Aelita exited the tower and walked over to Odd.

"Yumi is ok now" Odd said to Aelita.

Aelita walked back into the tower and was materialized. Odd was also.

"Materialization…" Jeremie started to say.

"Don't do it Jeremie!" Yumi said to him.

"What?" Jeremie said then Aelita and Odd walked into the room. "Yumi doesn't want me to rematerialize them."

"Then let them stay on Lyoko" Aelita said.

"Ok" Jeremie said "Yumi Ulrich I'm setting a countdown for an hour. When it hits zero it will rematerialize you."

"Fine" Ulrich said "Thanks."

Jeremie, Aelita, and Odd left the factory and returned to the dorm rooms. Jeremie went to his computer and made sure the countdown would bring them back. He then went to bed.

Nobody's POV

On Lyoko:

Ulrich and Yumi got on the Overbike and got down off the top of the tower. When they reached the bottom they both got off the Overbike and went inside the tower. They walked to the side of the platform and held hands as they fell threw the digital sea and into another tower in the forest region. They stayed inside the tower and talked.

"This whole Angel thing is really getting me mad" he said.

"I know what you mean" she said back to him.

"It's just that she is messing with me, trying to get rid off you, and it's tearing me apart!"

"If I was separated from you I wouldn't be able to live."

Ulrich looked at Yumi "I wouldn't be able to live either."

There was a deafening silence for a minute then Ulrich said "I promise that if Angel tries to kill you or anybody else tries to kill you I will protect you."

"Thanks Ulrich."

Yumi grabbed Ulrich's hand and they walked out of the tower. They walked through the forest region for a long time and were talking about different things.

The countdown was about to hit zero.

Ulrich then stopped and said "Yumi… I… I… I Love you!"

"I love you too Ulrich" Yumi said.

They both leaned into kiss.

The countdown hit zero and materialized them. They both appeared in a scanner before they could kiss. They both stepped out of the scanners.

Yumi looked at her watch "I really need to go Ulrich. I'm sorry."

"It's ok" Ulrich said "But one more thing."

"What?" Yumi said now in the elevator.

Ulrich walked into the elevator and kissed her passionately on the lips. They held the kiss for a long 30 seconds (but it seemed like eternity).

"I love you, Yumi" Ulrich said to her.

"I love you too" Yumi said to him.

Then they both leaned in and kissed again.

Later Yumi returned home and went in her room with out anybody noticing in her house.

Ulrich went to the dorms and went to his room. He woke up Odd.

"Ulrich? How was it? Did you kiss her?" Odd said.

"It was good… and I'm not answering that." Ulrich said.

"Why not?" Odd said.

"Good night Odd." Ulrich said to him.

Ulrich laid down on his bed and fell asleep.

Ok here is the deal:

I'm going on this teen retreat to Pennsylvania and I'm leaving 12/29/05 and I won't get back till 1/01/06. So I'm going to write thelast chapter today and put it on today also (but that doesn't mean you shouldn't review). Then when I get back I will start the part two of this story.
