Did Someone Lose a Forest?

It's seven in the morning, and our heroes are gracefully waking up from sleep. "Don't that shit off!" Ash shouts. "It's yours!" Brock shouts. Ash rolls out of bed and turns off the alarm clock. "Why can't school start at 9:00 AM. That would be a dream," Ash said. He looks and sees Brock sleeping again. Ash tackles Brock. "I'm up!" Brock said. Meanwhile, Ulrich wakes up and notices that Odd's alarm is going off, but he is not in bed. "Odd? Did he wake up before the alarm? What universe is this?" Ulrich teases. He goes to see Jeremy, who is talking to Ash and Brock. "Hey, Ulrich. I was updating the guys that I was up all night to send you all directly to the web to fight XANA." "Any luck?" Ulrich asks. "No. (Yawn) Anyway, I have to focus on my speech." "For?" Ash asks. "Class Rep. Were you not paying attention?" Brock asks. "I guess not!" The boys laugh. In class, The boys meet up with the girls. "We have to make the impossible choice between Herve and Jeremy; I wonder who is the best choice?" Dawn teases. Aelita giggles. Odd arrives and passes a flyer to the group. Allison reads it. "Well, Dawn, Odd is running too." "What? Odd?" Jeremy exclaims. "Yes. What's wrong? You don't think I can handle it. You know it takes more than brains to be a class rep!" Odd exclaims. Aelita gleefully reads Odd's flyer. Jeremy and Odd have a war of words before class starts. Ash speaks to Brock. "On one hand, Jeremy is the typical choice, but Odd has more people skills and can relate to his peers." "Well, if this ends well, let's hope no hard feelings," Brock said. Meanwhile, XANA activates a tower in the Forest Sector. At the same time, Yumi is on a class field trip. She looks lost. "I'll bet the others are having a blast not voting for Herve," Yumi says to herself. Then, a large specter emerges from the bus and takes over the whole class, which causes the bus to stop. "Hey, are we there yet?" Yumi asks, but she sees her classmates, Ms. Hertz and Jim, all staring at her with the Eye of XANA. Yumi manages to jump out of the bus and run into the woods.


Back in class, Odd gives a speech. "With me, I can relate to all of my peers. These two smarties get good grades all the time. They don't know the struggles of almost failing. I can help manage the stress becasue I've been there." Ulrich jumps up. "Let's hear it for all the near drop-outs!" The students cheer. Moments before, Herve spoke, and that speech was skipped for great reasons. After cheering for Odd, Jeremy glares at Odd. He is about to give a speech when Yumi class him. "Yumi, what is going on?" "Jeremy! My whole class is under XANA's spell. I need a backup-" The line goes out. "Yumi, Yumi," Jeremy said. Jeremy coughs. "I left my speech in my room. May I go get it?" "Sure," The teacher said. Jeremy winks at Odd and Odd nods to his friends. "I'll go with him, so he doesn't try to cheat," Odd said. The other six join in. "We need to go with them," Aelita said. "In case they attack each other," Ulrich. "And both of them are bais; we need to go to be Switzerland!" Dawn said. "Okay?" The teacher said. "At least they understood the topic, unlike you all!" Ash J grows concerned. The group splits up; Odd, Aelita, Allison, and Dawn go to Lyoko while Ulrich, Brock, and Ash go to help Yumi. Or, in Ash's words, "So Ulrich can be Yumi's savior!" "Fuck you, Ash!" Ulrich said with a little blush. When Jeremy sees where the tower is, they go off. William has detention but notices Ulrich heading for the woods. "Hmm, I should check this out!" In the woods, Yumi hides but is found by Jim. Ash hears something, and Ulrich checks it out and notices William following them. "What the fuck are you doing here?" Ulrich asks. "I heard Yumi is in danger," William said. "Yiu must have misheard," Ash said. "Really? I heard what I heard, and I want to help," William said. "Everything is okay," Ulrich said. At that moment, they heard Yumi screaming. "Well, Ulrich is fucking deaf or a liar!" William said. Ulrich rolls his eye. "Fine, stay close!" Brock whispers to Ash. "Wow, William and Ulrich make you and Paul best friends."


On Lyoko, Aelita, and Odd get there first. Follow by Dawn and Allison. Dawn looks like a belly dance on Lyoko and spins poi as her weapon. Allison looks like a princess with her hair in a bun and a silver tiara. The tiara gives off a shield, and Allison uses green plasma to make different weapons and sometimes wings when needed. Aelita and Odd use the Overboard, and Allison and Dawn use the Overwing. They are met with twelve Tarantulas. "Well, XANA is busy!" Allison said. "Well, we can handle it!" Odd said. The Tarantulas start to shoot and manages to hit the vehicles. Allison makes a plasma bo and strikes two monsters. Dawn spins her poi stick and strikes three monsters. Odd climbs a tree and hits two monsters. One of them tries to sneak up on Allison. "Allison! Ugly behind you!" Allison makes a plasma shield from her tiara and blocks the attack, then strikes the monster. Dawn makes four versions of herself and takes down a monster. This move is similar to Ulrich's Triangulate, but it is called Circulate. Odd jumps and attacks one monster. Where three left, each one lures it away from the tower. In the woods, the boys find Yumi surrounded. Ulrich and Ash agree to be decoys. "Hey, Ms. Hertz. I want to say that your class fucking sucks!" Ulrich shouts. "Also, Jim's class is fucking worse. My grandfather is in better shape than you!" Ash shouts. That works. Meanwhile, Brock and William get Yumi to safety. Brock calls Jeremy. "Hey, any news?" "It will be over in one minute," Jeremy said. Aelita heads for the tower as Allison and Dawn each defeat a Tarantulas. Then the Schyphoza appears and blocks Aelita. "What is that?" Dawn asks. "The Schyphoza!" Odd shouts. "Why is it here? It has all of my memory," Aelita said. "I'm not sure, but run!" Jeremy said. Aelita is too far away for Allison or Dawn to catch up, and Aelita is captured. Back in the woods, Ash and Ulrich are cornered. "Two against fifteen, that's not fair!" Ulrich said. "I've been through worse," Ash said. Lucky, Brock, Yumi, and William launch a sneak attack. "Attack!" Brock shouts, and they knock down some attackers. William defeats the rest but is knocked out by Ms. Hertz. Jeremy calls Ash. "Tell me this is going to be over?" "No, Ash. Aelita has been taking by the Schypozoa." "Okay! Wait, what the hell is a Schypozoa?" "A jellyfish that is always after Aelita and-" The lines go dead. Jim knocks out Ash, and so are Brock, Yumi, and Ulrich. "Ash! Ash!" Jeremy calls out. Aelita is placed on the ground and stares angrily at her friends. "Aelita, are you okay?" Dawn asks. Aelita uses an Energy Field to attack her friends and climbs on a Tarantula, and heads for a Way Tower. "Jeremy, what the fuck is going on?" Odd asks. "XANA has possessed Aelita. I don't know why but stop her!" Jeremy commands. Two more Tarantulas block Allison and Dawn, but Odd follows her as he dodges attacks. Meanwhile, Ash, Brock, Yumi, and Ulrich are about to get attacked by Jim and Ms. Hertz one last time. Aelita manages to enter the tower and enter Code: XANA. Code: XANA? Parts of the sector started to disappear, and Allison and Dawn take each other out. Aelita falls out of the tower to see a shocked Odd. "What the fuck just happened?" A confused Aelita asks. "I don't know but run!" Odd said. "Jeremy, the sector is going away!" Odd shouts. "I see that. Allison and Dawn took each other out on their end. I will bring you back!" Jeremy manages to bring them back before they fall into the Digitial Sea. As the Forest Sector disappears, the activated tower is gone, thus saving the others.


Back in the lab, Jeremy looks for the Forest Sector. "I can't believe I did that!" Aelita said. "It's not your fault. This jellyfish is to blame," Dawn said. "It's gone!" Jeremy said. "The Forest?" Allison asks. "Yes. It doesn't exist anymore!" "But, why?" Odd asks. "Because, without the Sectors, I can't send you guys to Sector Five via the transport. Thus no access to the Core of Lyoko," Jeremy said. "And no Lyoko means no way of fighting XANA," Allison said. "Evil genius!" Dawn said. Meanwhile, Yumi talks to her class as if nothing happened. "So, this moss is a different color becasue of climate change!" Ms. Hertz, Jim, and the class look confused. "I love science!" Yumi said. Ulrich offered to bring William back to detention. "Don't you dare dream about Yumi!" Ulrich said. William wakes up and thinks he had a crazy nightmare. "Okay, maybe only one episode of Decapititors Dairies at night." At the lab, Allison speaks to Ash. "I'm glad that you are okay." "Me too. It was weird fighting, Rocky. I hope he doesn't remember and tells your brother." "Jeremy said after being Xanified, no one remembers." "Good!" "Well, it's a good thing I'll have some free time since I have to work on the way to bring you guys to Sector Five," Jeremy said. "Free time?" Odd asks. "Yes, since we're all going to vote for you!" Jeremy smiles, and Odd laughs. The next day, Odd basks in the glory of his victory. Siss is angry the Herve lost. "What do you mean that you both voted for Odd?" "We did!" Nicholas said.


Wow! Talking about plucking the Sectors off one by one. XANA has changed the rules, but the Lyoko Warriors are here to slay! Now Jeremy has a new goal and a new mission. Meanwhile, will William remember anything? Not really. As for Aelita, she still feels guilty about putting in the code. "I'm sorry, Daddy!" Allison looks at her family photo album again and sees the picture of her aunt, uncle, and cousin. "I have to figure out if Aelita is my cousin or not." "Still with the picture?" Dawn asks. "Yes. She looks like her. I only need something." "It will come. Don't push it!" "Speaking of pushing, did I notice a smile around Odd?" "With me? Like Odd was smiling at me?" "No. The other way? You were blushing a lot the past few days." "No! Good night!" Dawn said. Dawn lays down and smiles to herself. Allison shakes her head and turns off the lights. Now, things are getting interesting.
