Chapter 5: Hive Mind

A/N: I don't own Code Lyoko or anyother works referenced in this fanfic. Sorry for the delay. I was on vacation and then my basement flooded. Woe is me.

As soon as the song came over the intercom, two things happened. First, Odd slammed his head on his desk. Second, everyone in the school who wasn't a lyoko warrior stood up.

Art Class

Shane knew something was wrong as soon as everyone stood up. He looked over at Yumi and William, who both had worried looks on their faces. Then he looked over at Sapphire. They nodded and stood up. That's when the students attacked. Each one attacked the nearest lyoko warrior. Shane and Sapphire took out three of them in a manner of seconds. Yumi and William were caught off guard and were quickly pinned by the students. Then. out of a near by electric socket, a specter with blonde hair and green eyes materialized. It grabbed Yumi's neck, and electrocuted her. She screamed in pain. Shane turned to see what the specter was doing, and threw a desk at it. The specter lost its grip, and went flying out the window. Shane then pulled something out of his pocket and threw it into the ground. It sent out a power wave. Everyone in the room but the warriors was knocked out. "And that," Shane said while breathing heavily "is what happens to guys who disrespect women." He finished. "The hell was that?" Sapphire asked. I made a device to knock out any non Lyoko Warriors in case Xana possesed people." Shane replied. Yumi stood up. She was wobbly after the electrocution. She tried to talk, but no words came out. "Why does something like this always happen to people who's codes are taken?" Sapphire asked. "If I could guess, it's because their body can't cope with data being taken out of their body in the real world, so it shuts something down." Shane replied. "Think the others realize what's happened?" William asked. "Shitshitshitshitshitshit!" They could here coming from outside. They opened the door to see Odd yelling and running, with Ulrich, Jeremie, and Aelita behind him. "Either that or Odd pissed all three of them off." Shane said. Then he saw the group of possessed students coming down the hall. "I'm gonna go with the first one." William said. Yumi nodded in agreement. After that, they ran to the manhole.

All the warriors were crowded behind a bush near the manhole. Jim was guarding it, and Principle Delmas was guarding the main entrance. "Looks like one of us is going to have to make a distraction." Ulrich said. "You just volunteered." Shane said. "What, why me?" Ulrich asked. "They will ignore Me, Sapphire, and Jeremie, because we don't have codes, we need Aelita, and Yumi, Odd, and William have all already lost codes." Shane replied. "Damnit, I hate it when you're right." Ulrich replied. "Don't worry kraut, I'm sure I'll hate it when you're right. But for now go distract Jim." Shane replied. "Fuck you." Ulrich said before running out into the open. Jim went right after him. When the coast was clear, the others went into the sewers. "How come you call him Ulrich sometimes, and kraut at other times?" Odd asked. "Simple, when I call him kraut, it's when he annoys me." Shane replied.

The Factory

"The tower is in the Mountain sector." Jeremie said. "Cool, now I can feel a breeze up there." Odd said. "Shut up Odd." Sapphire said. They all went down to the scanner room. "Transfer Aelita, Transfer Yumi, Transfer Sapphire. Scanner. Virtualzation." The girls were sent into Lyoko.

They landed on the mountains and felt a slight breeze. "Wow, Odd was right about the breeze." Yumi said. Then she realized she could talk again. "Finally! Looks like being in Lyoko disables the side effects of losing codes." Yumi said. "Virtualization." They heard Jeremie say. Then the three boys landed. "Wow Odd, you were right about that breeze." Willam said. "I just reailized something." Odd said. "What?" Aelita asked. "Xana is using his tower to creat the specter, right?" Odd asked. "Yeah." Sapphire said. "Then how is he also controling everyone in the school?" Odd asked. Then everyone looked at Shane. "You left the intercom system open for Xana to get into, didn't you." Jeremie said. "Yeah, I forgot to close it after thinking how smart I was with this prank." Shane replied. Everyone face palmed. Shane shrugged. "Sorry." "Well, on the bright side, I have managed to fix the vehicles, and made new ones for Shane, Sapphire, and William." Jeremie said. He loaded the Overboard, Overbike, and Overwing. Odd got on the board, Yumi on the wing, and Aelita on the bike. Then he uploaded three more. The one for William was a white Overbike with two wheels side by side, and the green lines on the front are now black. Shane's was a gold Overboard with a dragon design. Sapphire's was a black Overwing with three fins on the bottom, The one in front was longer than the one in the middle, and the one in the middle was longer than the one in the back. The red sphere in the front was now midnight blue. "William, yours is the Overcycle, Shane's is the Overdragon, and Sapphire's is the Overshadow." Jeremie said. "Hey Shane, I guess my vehicle over shadow's yours." Sapphire said. Shane threw a fireball at her. "I hate it when you do that." Sapphire said. "You would do it too if you had to listen to all of the bad jokes that at least one person makes on these missions." Shane pelied. "Let's get going, Ulrich dosen't have all day." Yumi said. "Right." Shane said. Everyone got on their vehicles. "Aelita, don't you have wings?" William asked. "Yes, but I can use the vehicle to block shots, so I'll use this first." Aelita said. "Fair enough." William replied. "Look out guys, five Mantas and ten Kankrelats ahead." Jeremie said. "Me and Sapphire have the Mantas, you guys take the roaches." Shane said. Then the twins went up, while the others got low down.

Ulrich is currently hiding in the boys bathroom, in one of the stalls. Then he notices a box of cookies on the ground. He picks them up, and it explodes. Ulrich is covered in soot. At the bottom of the box it says, "Gotcha Odd. -Shane" "I am going to kill those two after this." Ulrich said. He ran before anyone could arrive at the explosion.

Mountain Sector

Odd had already killed three of the Kankrelats, and William sliced two more of them. "Frost Wave!" Sapphire shouted. The colors change to white. Her scythe let out a wave of cold, and froze a Manta. It shattered when it hit the ground. "Fire Blade!" Shane shouted. he sliced two more Mantas in half, destroying them. One of the Mantas broke off and shot Aelita in the back. Shane jumped off the Overdragon it going under the Manta, while he sliced it across the eye. He landed back on the Overdragon in time to pull his sheild out and reflect a Manta blast. Sapphire killed the last one. Yumi threw her fan and killed three more Kanktelats. The last two managed to shoot William before Aelita hit them with energy fields. "Alright guys, Aelita is down to sixty life points, and William is down to eighty." Jeremie said. "Let's keep going." Shane said.

Ulrich had managed to evade all of the people when he ran from the explosion. He was being careful not to be seen. When he saw the coast was clear, he stood up and turned around. He saw a mind controlled Milly and Tamia. "God damnit." Ulrich said. He ran the other way, only to run into Jim, who bear-hugged him. "Fuckfuckfuck." Ulrich panicked.

Mountain Sector

"Hey, Einstien, what's guarding the tower?" William asked. "Looks like only five hornets." Jeremie said. "Guess Superior took the day off." Shane said. They arrivied at the tower, and were shot at by the hornets. The Hornets focused on the vehicles. All of the vehicles were quickly destoryed and the warriors were forced to land. Aelita, Odd, and Yumi used their weapons. Shane threw fireballs, and Sapphire was shooting lightning. William was super smoking trying to get high enough to hit the Hornets. The Hornets were dodging better than they used to. "Ya know, this used to be a lot easier." Odd said. "Xana has probably upgraded them since then." Shane said. Then he threw a fireball and then one where the same Hornet dodged to, destorying it. The others formed up and aimed at Aelita. They unleashed a volley of lasers. William super smoked in front of her and took the rounds on his body and sword. The others destoryed the Hornets before Aelita could take damage, but William was devirtualized. He fell out of the scanner, and said "That sucked." Back on Lyoko, Aelita was running to the tower. Right before she entered the tower, everyone heard "Force Bomb!" and something hit Aelita, exploded, and devirtualized her. "NO!" Everyone shouted. They looked up to see Superior, on a black Manta, with a huge smirk on his face. "Oh, I always wondered what it would be like to ruin your only hopes for victory." Superior said. He landed on the ground, and summoned his sword. "I just love the look on your faces. All helpless and not knowing that the codes can deactiv- uh never mind." Superior said. He got mad at himself. "Shit. I wasn't supossed to tell you that. "So the codes can deactivate towers huh? Good." Shane said. "Yes, but that's not gonna happen." Superior said. He then jumped in front of the tower. "So, who want's to fight?" He asked. "Alright guys, he can't take us all." Shane said. "I'd beg to differ." Superior rebutted. "LEROY JENKINS!" Odd shouted. He ran at Superior and shot arrows at him. "Force Mirror." Superior siad. The barrage of arrows were reflected, and devirtualized Odd. Other arrows hit the warriors, bringing their lifepoints down. "Damnit Odd." Yumi said. "Yumi, stay behind us, you're the only one left on Lyoko with codes." Sapphire said. "Got it." Yumi said. Superior charged at the warriors, and the twins both blocked his blade. They were evenly matched, and neither side was gaining ground. "Your pretty strong Shane, since there's no way your bitch of a sister could be helping at all. "Ya know Mark- "Superior!" "Fine 'Superior', I remember me being the one who saved you from the petting zoo fiasco." Sapphire said. "Don't bring that up you fucking bitch." Superior said. "Yumi, we've got him, get to the tower." Shane said. "Oh no." Superior said. "Force Boost!" He then shouted. His strength tripled, and he was pushing the others back with one hand on the sword. Then he punched Sapphire right through her stomach, devirtualizing her. "God, I hate being devirtualized." She said. Shane jumped back, and held his blade in one hand, and put his shield in the other. "Let's dance." He said. "With pleasure." Superior replied.

Ulrich was brought to the specter. He was pinned by a number of nameless stuents, and also Sissi and Herv. The specter grabbed his neck, starting to drain the codes, while electrocuting Ulrich.

Mountain Sector

Shane and Superior were fighting equally, with Shane blocking and thrusting, and Superior going all out. Anytime Yumi tried to get to the tower, Superior shot a force bomb at her. 'He's too strong, I can't win like this.' Shane thought. Then Yumi had an idea. She used her telekinisis and picked up Superior. This gave Shane an opening he jumped up at Superior. Superior broke free of the telekinisis, and slashed down at Shane. When they both landed nothing happened for a moment. Then they both devirtualized. Yumi ran to the tower. She walked to the middle, and flaoted up. Ulrich was unconsious from the shocking. Yumi reached the panel, and the code's instinct kciked in.

The tower turned white. "Return to the past now!" Jeremie yelled.

The warriors were in the lunchroom, with Odd's head in shame, as Humpback Me Baby played over the speakers. "Don't worry Odd, this will blow over in a few days." SHane said with a laugh. "I hate you." Odd replied. "No you don't Furry." Shane said. "At least I'm not the only one with a nickname now." Ulrich said.

A/N: From now on I will put a meter of all the warrior's and Xana's codes at the bottom of the story. I'm also sorry for the crappy way I jammed in how the towers can be deactivated by codes, but I wanted to get this chapter out ASAP. R&R. Flames will be used for future attacks
