A Symbol Of Our Love
Chapter 5
Competition
I didn't get alot of reviews last time so I'm a bit sad, so from now on, I won't update until I get atleast 6 reviews! Anyways I would like to thank robofeternalfire the owner of Mark, he helped me alot so thanks! Also, thanks for giving me the idea about the love triangle between Odd, Kira, and Mark. Thanks for that also!
He woke up in cold sweat, he felt like he hadn't breathed for years... where was she? WHERE WAS SHE? His blonde shoulder length hair blew in the wind, his red eyes with black swirls glowed.
"Good... now you know what to do."
"Of course... why wouldn't I?"
Kira sat down by a tree, she was waiting for Odd to come out, she gave her actions alot of thought, she needed to make sure what she did was right.
"You needed to talk to me?"
Kira looked up to see Odd standing there, black circles under his eyes, his eyes were blood red. He looked like he didn't sleep for days.
"Odd..."
"I'm fine." He sat down beside her and laid his head on the tree trunk.
"I'm sorry I told you, I shouldn't have, I tried to prevent you from pain but instead... I gave you pain."
"No it's not your fault... it was our fault for not stopping X..." He trailed off, he had forgotten that she didn't know about XANA.
Mark watched from a distance, Odd bugged him... why would she want to spend her time with HIM? HIM OF ALL PEOPLE? He shook it off, he couldn't show any of his anger and show his jealousy... no it wasn't jealousy... was it? Mark walked off not wanting to watch anymore.
"I better go... I need to get to class."
Kira nodded, she mostly skipped class because of what happened in her life, she was about to tell him to stay but then Odd leaned down and kissed her and ran off. Daisy,Yumi, Nat, Samantha, Maria, and Mark saw this, everyone was happy for her but Mark. So there was going to be some competition...and he wasn't going to lose. He hated Daisy for pulling him over here... she was EVIL! EVIL! Ok, maybe to him... They all left leaving Kira sitting there with a shocked face.
"There you are..."
Kira's heart skipped a beat, her eyes wide open with shook. She knew that voice... way to well. She felt his arm touch her shoulder and she leaned toward him, remembering his soft gentle touch that she longed to feel again.
"Who was that?"
"That's not the question... why are you back? How are you back?"
"Tell me who that was first."
"It was Odd..."
"Odd... I see..."
"Now tell me what I need to know."
"It's your father... he wants you."
"But you were dead, how are you here?"
"Your father gave me another chance at living."
"My father... but my father... he's dead."
"He's not in human form... but he does live."
"How do you know this?"
"Come with me... and I'll show you."
She closed her eyes and thought about it, what about Odd? Mark? But this is the one... she had to go with him...
"You can come back to Odd... later."
"Martin..."
He helped her up and Kira stared into Martin's red eyes with his beautiful black swirls, his shoulder length blonde hair. He was wearing a black shirt with a skull on it with long jeans on.
He lead her to the sewers... the one that lead to Lyoko.
"Kira? WHERE ARE YOU? Kira!" Yumi shouted her name for the last 10 minutes.
She walked to the tree she last seen her at... with Odd. The thought of them together made her smile.
"She's not here."
Yumi turned around to see Ulrich standing there, his face emotionless.
"What are you talking about?"
"The one you're looking for, she's not here..."
"Wha... you know her name! What are you talking about?"
"The one... the one that he needs... she's gone."
"I... what?"
Daisy, Mark, Nat, Robin, Samantha, Maria, Nick, Nikana, Josh, and Tessa eyes opened wide in shock... so the plan was in action... he could destroy them all!
"You... You're not Ulrich! You're just like that clone... the clone of me! It wasn't Ulrich that told Sissi that he loved her... it was you! A fake... get out of my way! I have to find Ulrich!"
"So you're going to let him win? Perfect."
"Let whowin? WHO?"
He just smirked and disappeared, as Yumi bumped into Ulrich.
"Sorry... I should've watched where I was going." Ulrich said not looking into her eyes.
"Ulrich... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to yell at you, I just didn't know that that clone was out there. I... I still love you."
Ulrich looked up and smiled, then he leaned and kissed her. But then Yumi pulled away after a minute, "Ulrich... what was he talking about? That she's gone? The one that he needs is gone? What was he talking about?"
"Jeremy did some research... Kira, Daisy, Mark, Nat, Robin, Samantha, Maria, Nick, Nikana, Josh, and Tessa... they, they all know about XANA in their own way. Mark met XANA when he met Kira. They all know about XANA because they are all connected to Kira somehow." They heard all this and looked down... what he said was true, two of the girls were connected with Yumi and knew about XANA.
"What about Kira? How does she relate to XANA?"
Ulrich looked down once again, "XANA is... her... dad."
Yumi gasped, "What? How? I..."
"I know it's hard to believe, but Daisy is her cousin, you can ask her if you must. Where is she by the way?"
"She's... gone."
"For how long?"
"I don't know, you should ask Odd."
Just as she said that Odd came running out yelling Ulrich's name.
"Ulrich..." He panted
"What is it?"
"It's about Kira, her friends... they... they... know where she is..."
"You're not coming..."
Odd glared at Mark, "WHY NOT?"
"We've known her longer, it's best if we go." Mark said calmly trying to remain calm and not kill him through anger.
Maria was about to argue, but Odd spoke once more, "But I..."
"What? You what?"
"I..."
"You love her don't you? To bad she doesn't love you."
"You don't know that!"
"Mark... you... you like her to don't you? You don't want any competition, but to bad! You will and I won't lose her."
"But you already did!"
"Wha...?" Odd looked around, there was nobody there but them.
Odd shook his head, it was only in his head... nobody was there, but he couldn't shake it out, and he fell and the ground breathing only slightly.
Odd woke up, none of his friends were there, but something caught his eye. It was Kira... maybe what they said was just a bad dream.
"How are you feeling?"
"I'm... fine, I guess."
She smiled, "That's good."
"I thought... you went with Martin."
"I did... he was acting, don't worry, he's on our side."
Odd just nodded his head, "How did I get here?"
Odd didn't want to talk about Martin anymore, he felt... uncomfortable with three boys liking Kira... This was just like with Yumi, three boys liked her, but Ulrich won. Kira represented Yumi alot except for that Kira was a singer and a punk rocker. She played the electric guitar, Odd remembered how he fell in love with Sam, but this was different, there was competition, it wasn't going to be easy.
"My friends helped bring you in here. What happened to you?"
"I just heard a voice... and I guess I freaked and... uh..."
"Hey Odd! How are you feeling?" Yumi asked running into the room with all her friends... all of them... including them.
"I'm fine."
"That's great!" Aelita said excited and happy that her friends alright.
"Yeah... that's great." Ulrich replied his eyes gazed on Yumi.
"Yeah, great... just great!" Mark said sarcasm in his voice while glaring at Odd.
"How long was I out?"
"About three hours, Kira was here the whole time." Daisy exclaimed knowing what happened between the two and also recieved a glare from Mark.
Odd looked at Kira, her eyes not gazed at him, but gazed outside as if looking at something... someone... Martin.
"Kira?"
"... huh? Oh what is it?" She asked her gaze finally on him instead of the window.
"Are you ok? You seem distracted by soemthing."
"Yeah I'm fine."
Yumi looked at Kira, she didn't seem the same, after she found out that XANA was her dad in a super computer form she seemed to be concerned about someone... Her eyes and clothing had changed also, her blue eyes seemed to be pitch black and her clothing was more punk than ever. Something was wrong... and Yumi knew why, because she was there.
Well, I suppose this is kinda a cliff hanger... I kinda made it a bit obvious, but you guys can guess if you want. I don't really care, but review please!
