Nobody's Known Till Now 2

They were cold, hungry, tired, hurt, and completely without a plan. They didn't know where XANA was and what his next move was. They weren't even sure if they were safe. All they could do was hope.

Ulrich's back had stopped bleeding and he was awake. He sat up against the wall. Yumi sat next to him shivering. Ulrich wrapped his arms around her trying to warm her up.

"I'm so scared." Yumi whispered to Ulrich. Ulrich kissed her forehead to comfort her. Odd and Lillian were huddled around Emma to keep their child from freezing.

"I think I may have found away to stop XANA." Jeremy paused. If two much electricity surrounds him he'll become bound to the computer again. What if we hurried and turned on all the electricity in the factory and then lead him down here. He'll have to activate towers again and we can return to the past. Everything will go back to normal even Ulrich." Everyone nodded in agreement.

"It'll be hard since Ulrich and Odd are both incapable of help. Yumi is too." William stood up. "Guess it's up to us Jeremy." William looked serious."

"Ahem, What about Lillian and I we're perfectly capable of helping." Aelita butted in.

"Yeah, I'm fine, a bit bruised, but fine." Lillian and Aelita looked at each other.

"What if XANA kills someone. Lillian Emma needs you. Odd needs you."

"I'm still going. I'm stronger than I look!" They all looked at her and realized they had a better chance of winning. William nodded and the four of them left leaving Yumi, Odd, and Ulrich alone in the room. Yumi burst into tears.

"It's OK, I'm here. I'm not going anywhere, Yumi." Ulrich looked at her then glazed at Odd who sat in extreme pain. Ulrich moved a little bit. He winced in pain.

"I can feel my hips again. It was just temporary. I'm going to help the others." He closed his eyes trying not to show the pain as he weakly stood up.

"Ulrich you can't. You're too weak from the blow. I won't let you do this!" Yumi and Odd yelled in unison.

"I'll be fine they need help. Odd your leg in broken, I just have a scratch." Ulrich turned and left ignoring their comments. He climbed up the ladder holding on tight and not looking down. He reached the top and found the rest of the gang.

"What are you doing here?" Ulrich smiled.

"Need a little help?" Everyone smiled and didn't argue. They all ran around the tower turning every single bit of electricity on. Ulrich drew XANA's attention down the elevator shaft and XANA actually was dumb enough to follow. The minute XANA walked into the basement he began to shake. XANA was sent back to the computer. Everything would go back to normal. Ulrich saw a white light and then he was sitting in his bed next to Odd eating lunch.

"Well that was a very interesting attack." Odd said looking at Ulrich. Ulrich just laid back in his bed a pairing sharp pain made him let out a yelp.

"Ulrich, what's wrong?"

"The return trip didn't work." He said through his clenched teeth.

"But I'm fine. My leg is fine." Odd stood up and looked scared. "I don't like this. Sissy ran in. Ulrich tell me what's going on. Why are we going through this a second time. I saw a light and I was in the cafeteria again." She took a look at Ulrich.

"You weren't supposed to remember anything and I was supposed to be fixed. Odd this really isn't good. Call Jeremy and William. Leave Lillian, Aelita, and Yumi out of this." Odd nodded and took out his phone. Ulrich lay on his back as the pain went away. Once again he couldn't feel anything.

"I can't feel anything anymore." Ulrich said as he punched his wall making it dent a little bit. He was SO angry and confused. Sissy sat next to him and sighed. Ulrich lay motionless on the bed. He could feel his back bleeding again. It soaked his shirt. Sissy looked at Odd. Odd looked scared and worried. No one knew what to do.

A few moments later Ulrich's phone rang. He picked it up slowly.

"Hello,"

"Hey, Ulrich, what's up? It's Yumi. I need you to come over for a little while."

"Er…Now… Now…isn't a…great time. Should I send Odd?" There was a long akward pause.

"I really wanted to talk to you."

"Like I said now's not a great time, have to go bye." Ulrich hung up quickly. He sighed and lay on the bed.

They saw a white light and returned a little further into the past. Ulrich opened his eye to his screaming alarm. He sat up without any pain. He quickly stood up.

"Odd get up! Jeremy did it. I'm back to normal." Ulrich took out his cell phone and called Jeremy. He answered on the second ring.

"Hey Jeremy, thanks for the return trip. It fixed me."

"What are you talking about? I didn't send a return trip…
