Chapter 8
Laura's P.O.V.
"Owww what happened? Where am I? I thought as I sat up. I remember Yumi and I fighting a bunch of strikers and then nothing.
Wait I know where I am this is the same room XANA took me to last time he caught me.
"XANA, let me go!" I shouted.
"Ah, my dear, good to see you are awake now." He said as he approached me.
"Stay away from me you freak." I shouted while backing up.
For some reason he stopped and smiled.
"Ok why did you stop?" I asked.
"Because you asked me to my dear." He said while smiling, "I saw what odd did to you and it was horrible my dear. I would never speak to you in such a manner."
"I don't care what Odd said. I will not stay here with you. My brother is gonna come and save me. I can always count on him!" I shouted.
"Oh can you?" Xana sneered.
"What do you mean?" I said holding tears back.
"Let me show you."
Xana had showed me the group. They weren't sad, but happy and not seeming to miss her.
"You're lying, XANA! Damn it! You're lying!" I screamed as I slid down with my back against a wall and pulled my legs to my chest and started to cry in to my hands.
"My brother will come for me. I know he will." I said over and over.
"Maybe he will, my dear." XANA said.
"Maybe he won't." I thought, "I mean they all looked happy, and they didn't seem to miss me. Even Bo looked happy." I didn't see the dark rings forming around me.
"A few more hours, and she will be mine." Xana thought, "Now I just need to keep her brother and the others away from here."
Bo's P.O.V.
"Ok Jeremy, I am gonna send you back to the real world, so we can get to sector five." I said.
"Sure Bo. Just be careful. There is no telling what XANA may have planed for you. Jeremy said.
"True, XANA could have an army waiting on us." Yumi said.
"I don't care how many fucking monsters are in my way. I will get my sister back." I shouted as my eyes turned crimson for only a second.
"Bo, we will get her back I know we will." Aelita said.
"Yeah, we will Bo. I know how much you care about Laura. We all do." Yumi said with a smile.
"You're right. Are you ready, Jeremy?" I asked.
"As ready as I can be." Jeremy said.
"Ok, see, when we get Laura back, you will bring Laura to Earth." I said as I sent Jeremy back to the real world.
After a few minuets, we heard Jeremy tell us that he was about to enter the password for sector five.
"Ok, Jeremy, we are ready to go." I said. Jeremy entered the password and the transporter arrived to take us to sector five.
"Ok guys, the door is about to open get ready. Ok, the countdown has started." Jeremy said.
"Ok, can you tell us where the switch for the timer is at Jeremy?" Yumi shouted as we ran along destroying any creepers that got in our way.
"It is just down the hall to the right." Jeremy said.
"Ok were almost there." Aelita said.
"Just hold on, Sis. I am coming for you." I said.
"Got it!" Aelita said as she hit the switch stopping countdown.
"Ok, go to the console, and we will find where XANA has her." Jeremy said.
"Ok, let's get moving. The faster we do this, the less time XANA has to hurt Laura." Yumi said.
"Right, let's get moving. I said.
We made our way to the lift to take Aelita to the console that we need to find where XANA has Laura.
"Ok it could take a while for Aelita to find the info we need." Yumi said as she walked over to me.
"Ok, so what do we do now?" I asked.
"We keep an eye out for the mantas, creepers and strikers that XANA can send to get Aelita." Yumi stated.
"Ok, thanks a lot for you letting me know." I said.
"Hey, no problem. I told you. You have helped all of us in some way, and Laura is normally the one to be there for you, but until then I hope I can be of help to you." Yumi said while smiling.
"By the way, what was it you wanted to ask me before XANA decided to be an ass like usual?" I asked.
"Oh, so you remembered?" She stammered.
"Uh, yeah it sounded important, so I figured that I would ask later, but we have a little time while Aelita looks for XANA and Laura."
"Well I wanted to know if you would go out with me on Friday night since Ulrich and I broke up." She wasn't looking at me.
"There are other guys who would love to take you out, so why me?" I asked, "I mean you're smart, beautiful, and funny. I would be honored to take you out Yumi."
"Thanks Bo. I need to get my mind off Ulrich even if it is only for a few hours." Yumi said while smiling.
"No problem. I think Laura would like to be alone for awhile anyways I mean the last few days I was always around, and I think she is starting to get a little irritated with me always being around." I said.
"Maybe, but she will always want you around her. You two were apart of almost six years." Yumi said.
"Yeah, I know. I wish I was the brother that I was before the accident. I can remember what I was like, but I just can't seem to be as easy going or funny as I was then." I said with my head down.
"Don't worry. With a little time you will be that person again, and Laura is happy now." Yumi said with a smile.
"Yeah, thanks a lot, Yumi." I said with a smile.
"I got it!" Aelita yelled, "She is a level above us."
"Ok, so how do we get there?" I asked.
"Jeremy, this is where the info I sent you comes in handy." Aelita said.
"Right, all I need to do is send your vehicles and you can get in XANA changed the path from last time we were here so be careful." Jeremy said.
"Ok, Einstein, we are on our way." I said as my red and black overboard appeared.
"Ok, were going now Jeremy." Yumi said as got on to her overwing, and Aelita got onto her pink overboard.
"Let's go you two." I said as I took off with Yumi and Aelita close behind me.
"Ok, you are coming up to the access portal now." Jeremy said.
"Ok, I see it now." Aelita said.
"Aelita, be careful. If it gets to dangerous, I want you to get out of here. Yumi, will you look after her ok?" I asked.
"Ok." They said at the same time.
"Alright, let's go get Laura back, and kick XANA's ass!" I shouted as I went though the portal.
I wasn't ready for what I saw. There was Laura with XANA here look was the same but in all black including her wings and hair.
"Ah, welcome brats." Xana sneered.
"Up yours, XANA!" I shouted.
"Let Laura go right now, XANA!" Yumi shouted.
"She is free to go when ever she wants too." XANA said as held his hand out for Laura
"I don't want to leave you my king." Laura said as she grabbed XANA's hand.
"What! Laura what are you saying? You can't be serious Sis." I shouted.
"Oh, but I am big brother." She sneered icy. That is when I noticed that Laura's eyes were black. They had no light in them at all. She wasn't herself. Her eyes were usually full of light. Now they were full of hate and darkness.
"What did you do to her, XANA?" I asked with my voice dripping with venom.
"Oh, I did nothing to her. She saw the truth about all of you. She saw that none of you cared about her." Xana chuckled.
"I would never quit caring about my sister. She is my family and I would give my life for her." I shouted.
"Oh, that's good, Bo, because I plan on killing you for my new queen." Xana said while drawing his sword.
"Yumi try and get Laura out of here." I said as I drew my sword.
"Prepare yourself, Bo. For now, I will not hold back in our fight." Xana shouted.
"Fine by me, you bastard." I shouted.
Xana and I traded blows for about thirty minutes before I saw Yumi and Aelita sent back to Earth by Laura. I jumped back to put some distance between me and XANA.
"Laura, why did you do that?" I shouted.
"Because you want to hurt my king, and I will not let that happen." Laura shouted.
"But, he is the enemy Sis." I shouted.
"No, you are my enemy, Bo." Laura shouted.
"Laura, don't leave us please." I begged.
"Ah, you really think that fake tears will work on her now, Bo." Xana sneered.
"Damn you, XANA!" I shouted with virtual tears running down my face. Just as I was about to strike at XANA, I was shot by Laura. I was sent back to the wall where a dark arrow held me. I was screaming in pain.
I heard Yumi and Aelita both shouting at Jeremy to get me out of there. I shouldn't be able to feel pain, but I did. This is pain was deep in my heart.
"Bo, it is time for you to leave my world." Xana said.
"Allow me my king." Laura said.
"As you wish, my queen." Xana said.
"Goodbye, big brother." Laura sneered as she shot me over and over sending me back to Earth.
I fell out of the scanner in pain. I was holding my screams of pain in. I learned not to scream in pain from years ago.
"Bo, are you alright." I heard Yumi say as she knelt beside me and brought my head in to her lap.
"Aelita, get the first aid kit, and Jeremy down here fast."
"Ok Yumi, Aelita and I are on the way." Jeremy shouted.
"Yumi, Laura is gone. She sided with XANA." I choked out.
"I know, Bo. I am sorry." Yumi said.
"I failed her not once, but twice. I failed our parents. I broke my promise to protect her and not let anything happen to her." I said as tears now fell freely.
"It is alright, Bo. We will get her back. You will see. I promise you. We will get her back and stop XANA." Yumi said as she smiled with tears in her eyes as well.
"Yumi, is Bo alright? Jeremy asked as he stepped off the elevator with Aelita and the first aid kit.
"He's not bleeding any where, and I don't think he has any broken bones or internally injuries." Yumi said.
"I am just tired. That battle took a lot out of me physically and emotionally." I said as Yumi helped me to stand.
"Are your sure, Bo?" Aelita asked.
"Yeah, let's just get back to Kadic and try to get some rest because we've been gone almost all day." I said.
"Good thing it was a half day for teacher work day. Jeremy stated.
"Yeah it is." I chuckled.
"We also have the next few days off, so we can rest up and make a plan to get Laura back." Yumi said.
"True, but first, let's get Bo back, so he can rest." Aelita said as Yumi helped me to the elevator.
