Chapter 9
Bo's P.O.V
"Come on son, focus." A man said with dark hair.
"I'm trying too, dad, but it's hard." A seven year old Bo said.
"I know you can do this, son. It is part of who you are." Bo's father said.
"I will try harder, dad. I swear it." Bo said.
"I know you will always try, son. I believe in you, Bo." Bo's father said, "Here your mom coming with Laura. This is why I train you son to protect your sister and yourself. Laura is a special child. She is able to bring out the best in people some how. Even at this early age. Bo you are going to be the next ninja of…….."
"Bo" A voice said.
"Bo, wake up. Come on." The voice continued.
"Don't worry, Yumi. He is stronger that we think. He will wake up." another voice said. It sounded like Aelita's. So, Yumi and Aelita are here. Where's Laura? Why can't I move? I thought that I was dead. But then I felt a cool sensation on my forehead.
"He has been out of it for two days now." Another voice said. It sounded like Jeremy. What happened? Why have I been out for two days.
Then it all came back. Laura helping XANA send me back to Earth with her own hands. All of it.
NOOOOOO! I shouted as I sat up. Knocking Yumi off my bed and scaring the shit out of Jeremy and Aelita. I was breathing pretty hard when I sat up I had been sweating so much that my bedding was soaked through.
"You ok, Bo?" Yumi asked as she got up.
"I think so." I said as I put my feet over the edge.
"You have been out of it for two days now." Aelita said.
"Damn, sorry for worrying all of you." I said while looking at the floor.
"I have some bad news, Bo." Jeremy stated.
"I know Laura has sided with XANA." I said.
"Well that, and XANA has locked the scanners. There is no way for us to get to Lyoko until Franz can get them unlocked." Jeremy stated while pushing his glasses up.
"Ok, so how long do you think that's gonna take?" I asked.
"Well, he said it could take anywhere from a few hours to a few days." Aelita said.
"Damn it! I failed Laura three times in one day." I shouted.
"Bo, you didn't fail. I told you that already. Jeremy and Aelita don't think you failed either." Yumi said sitting next to me.
"Whatever it is, I can't fight Laura I just can't." I whispered.
"We are gonna find a way to get Laura back with out having to fight her, Bo." Jeremy said.
"I hope so." I said.
"So, are you hungry, Bo?" Aelita asked.
"Yeah I am. What's for lunch?" I asked.
"We were about to go and get it now. You think you can walk, or do you want eat in here." Yumi asked.
"I think I need to get up and out to start getting my strength back." I said, "Now if you would all step out side so I can get dressed."
"Oh, sorry." Yumi and Aelita said at the same time as they head out the door.
"Ha, ha, ha, ha, see you in a few, Bo." Jeremy said laughing.
"Ok, see you in a few." I said chuckling. I grabbed a black shirt with a white over shirt. A pair of regular jeans my black bandana with flames on it and my boots. I went out and locked my door seeing the others were waiting on me.
"Good to see you able to move ok, Bo." Yumi said walking over with Jeremy and Aelita behind her.
"Ya, It is." I joked.
"Very funny. We didn't think you would ever wake up. We had the nurse come up." Yumi said.
"She it was just a bad case of exhaustion." Aelita stated.
"Told you I was just tired." I smirked.
"Yeah well we still didn't know what to think." Yumi said.
"Sorry I worried you all." I said.
"That's ok. We're just glad your ok." Jeremy said.
"Me too, Einstein." I said.
"Ok, let's go get something to eat." I stated as I walked on ahead of them.
"Hey! Wait for us!" Yumi said running up to me with Jeremy and Aelita just catching up.
"Well, I am hungry. I haven't eaten in almost three days." I said.
"After we eat, we need to start planning our attack on XANA." Jeremy said.
"Ok, after we eat, we plan." I said.
"Wait! What's today anyways?" I asked.
"Friday. Why do you ask, Bo?" Aelita asked.
"Well, if your still up for it, Yumi, we do have a date tonight." I said as I looked over at her.
"Well if you still want to go its ok." Yumi said looking at me.
"What you and Yumi are going out?" Jeremy and Aelita shouted at the same time.
"Well it is just one date." I said.
"Yeah, I just want to try and move on from Ulrich, and Bo said he didn't mind." Yumi said.
"Well, have fun you two." Jeremy said.
"But not to much fun." Aelita giggled.
"Aelita!" A blushing Yumi shouted.
"Nothing like that is gonna happen. Not on the first date anyways." I said laughing, "Besides I don't kiss and tell anyways."
Yumi just turned even redder, and I received a punch in the arm for my comment.
"Ouch! No fair beating up an injured man." I said.
"Well, you deserved it." Yumi said still a little red.
We continued to talk about Lyoko and other things while we were heading to the lunch room.
"Ah, meatballs and gravy." I said as we got and paid for our food.
"I guess so." Aelita and Jeremy stated.
"At least it is eatable." Yumi said.
"Ok, let's eat outside. I want to sit in the fresh air, ok." I said.
"Sure, it is a nice day today." Aelita stated.
"Sure, I'm up for it." Jeremy said.
"Well, I am not eating alone, so I am in too." Yumi said smiling.
"Ok, outside it is." Aelita said happily.
"Ha, ha, ha, yeah, let's go, Aelita." Jeremy said smiling. We found one of the empty outdoors tables and Jeremy sat beside Aelita and Yumi beside me.
"Jeremy, we are gonna need help taking on XANA this time." I said. Yumi looked down knowing what was coming.
"Yeah, we are Bo." Jeremy stated.
"Ulrich and Odd were asking about Laura to see if she was ok, and where she was at." Aelita said.
"We haven't told them yet though." Jeremy said.
"We are gonna have to be able to get along if were gonna win and get Laura back." I stated.
"Yeah, I guess so." Yumi said while looking down.
"Yumi you ok?" I asked. She just nodded her head.
"Yumi, look me in the eye and tell me your ok." I said. She wouldn't look up. So I took moved her head up to I could look her in the eye to see if she was ok. She was fighting back tears from what Ulrich had said it still hurt her very much.
"Yumi, if we had another way, we would find someone else but we're not going have time to train new fighters. It is ok to cry, Yumi. Don't hold in the sadness or the angry. It will just eat at you until it bust and hurts worse." I said.
She started to cry and I pulled over to let her know that she would be ok.
"I can't believe what he said. I thought that he loved me, but I guess I was wrong." She sobbed.
"It will be ok, Yumi." I said while rubbing her back, "Just let it all out."
After a few minutes, Yumi had quit crying, and we had finished lunch. We headed to the factory to see how Franz was doing on getting the scanners back online.
"Jeremy, you and Aelita head on down first. I want to talk with Yumi for a min ok." I said.
"Sure, meet you down there, Bo." Aelita said. Aelita and Jeremy got in the elevator and when down.
"What do you want to talk about, Bo?" Yumi asked.
"Well, it isn't important, but where do you want to go tonight?" I asked.
"Oh well, how bout a movie?' Yumi asked.
"Ok, I haven't ever been on a date before, so I figured you would know where to go." I said turning red.
"What! You have never been on a date before!" Yumi exclaimed.
"Nope, I really didn't want to bring a girl anywhere near Lenny's place." I said.
"Well, with the way he was. I don't blame you." Yumi stated.
"Ok, well, now that we know where were going lets catch up with Jeremy and Aelita." I said.
"Yeah, let's go." Yumi said putting her arm around me and my arm around her waist. We both turned a little red, but I still hope that Ulrich and Yumi do find a way back to each other.
"Ah, ya finally decided to join us." Franz spoke up.
"Yeah, just had to decided something Uncle." I said.
"So, how is getting the scanners back online coming along?" Yumi asked.
"Well, XANA really messed up the programs for the scanners, so it will take about one more day to get them up and running, or until XANA is ready to attack us here on Earth." Franz said while typing on the super computer.
"Ok, so keep us informed. We will ask Ulrich and Odd tomorrow if they will help us." I said as Yumi and I headed for the elevator.
"So, what do you want to see Yumi?" I asked.
"Well, I heard that the Omen was good." She said.
"Oh, so ya want to see a horror movie." I said with a smirk.
"Yeah, so are you scared, Bo? She asked with an evil look, "Big bad Bo is scared?"
"Nah, just figured you would try and drag me into a chick flick. that's all. Those are way scarier." I said mocking Yumi.
We had a good laugh about it on the way to the theater.
"Ok, two for the Omen." I said as we got to the ticket counter.
"Ok, that will be twenty five euros." The clerk said. I paid for the tickets and we went in got popcorn drinks and some candy. We made your way to the top of the seats so we could see better.
(AN: We had never seen the Omen, so we can't really say what it is like.)
During some of the scary parts, Yumi would hide her face in my chest and get a death grip on my arm. I did get her good though. I told her that the worst of it was over and she looked just as something really scary happened. I think I deserved the slap I got but it was funny as hell to see the look of horror on her face.
The movie ended and we were heading out when we walked right into Ulrich.
"So, it seams that you didn't waste any time in asking out Bo. Did you, Yumi?" Ulrich snapped.
"So, what if I did ask him out? It wasn't like you cared anymore anyways." Yumi shouted.
"Hey, we all need to calm down." I said.
"Why should I?" Ulrich snapped.
"Because we need yours and Odd's help." I said.
"Oh, so the great Bo needs help." Ulrich sneered.
"Yeah, I do, ok. I said."
"What you're serious aren't you?" Ulrich asked.
"Yeah, you were asking about Laura earlier right?" I asked.
"Yeah, I haven't seen her in a few days." Ulrich stated.
"Well, the reason you haven't is because XANA has her thinking that we don't care about her. She has given him the last key to Lyoko, and she even attacked us. She has sided with him. She even is calling him her king." I stated.
Ulrich looked shocked but started to speak.
"Ok, Bo, I'm in. We got to get her back." Ulrich said, "And Yumi, I am sorry for yelling at you like I did, but I think I have feelings for Laura."
"It is ok, Ulrich." Yumi started.
"No, I shouldn't have spoken to my best friend the way that I did." Ulrich said.
"We can argue about apologies later. We need to get Odd to help us as well. We don't even know what XANA is doing to Laura right now." I said.
"Yeah, let's go find him and see if he will help us" Ulrich said.
