Written In Stone Chapter 7: Feline, Silver, and Samauri, a code lyoko fanfic

This one is dedicated to Lune-Solei.

Later on that night Aelita sat on William's bed. Yumi was staying in Aelita's room on a cot for the duration of her stay. It was late, the room was dark in an attempt to ward off Jim who would probably be patrolling and it was better to play it safe. Both teens were silent. Aelita was still trying to decipher the earlier message of 'beware the darkness, bringer of wind' and William was having a mental battle with himself.

Should I tell her about this morning or not? William thought, If I don't she might get mad at me for wanting to be with her so that I can protect her but if I do she might refuse to see me. I don't want to lose her.

Aelita's yawn cut into his thoughts. He slid up behind her, propping himself up in the corner of his bed by the wall and the dresser, pulling her down so that she was leaning on him. She let out a small gasp of surprise at first but then smiled up at him.

"Comfortable?" He asked, grinning madly.

"Very." She replied, returning to her thoughts.

"Good." William whispered, kissing her forehead lightly before returning to his internal battle. I won't tell her, not yet anyways. He decided finally, his eyelids drooping.

"Lita," He whispered, getting to response he opened his eyes and looked at her. Her eyes were shut tight and she was sleeping soundly.

"There's nothing I can do." He shrugged, closing his eyes and falling into a deep sleep.

It was the same scene all over again. Aelita watched herself step out into the street. Watched as Jeremie leapt out in front of the bus, shoving her out of the way.

"Why am I seeing this again?" She cried, "What can I possibly learn from it?"

Suddenly, everything froze. The bus stopped moving, the people in the street stopped, Aelita and Jeremie in mid-fall were frozen. It was as if the scene was in a movie and someone had hit the pause button. Except for Aelita could move around in her dream-like ghostly form.

"Three powers shall come together, Feline, Silver, and Samurai. They are the Princess's guards. Beware the Darkness, the bringer of Wind. Wind shall live; child of Darkness, knowing not of it's troubled past. A guard will become Prince and the future shall shine so long as Evil doesn't touch the five." Came a voice that was unfamiliar to Aelita.

"Who are you? And what do you mean?" Aelita called to the space around her in general.
"Aelita?" Came Jeremie's confused voice.

"Jeremie!" Aelita called happily, "Jeremie! Do you know what this means?"

Jeremie's form appeared close by her, "I do." He said sadly.

"What? Tell me!" Aelita begged.

"I cannot." Jeremie said, sadly shaking his head, "Remember Aelita, remember the past and look to the future, that will help you to know what it means."

"But-" Aelita began.

Aelita awoke to find herself in a strange room. Well, strange in the darkness of early morning. The clock on the desk read three am. The room was unfamiliar to her sleepy mind and the darkness didn't help. She tried to sit up but was held back by a restraint around her midriff. She let out a sharp gasp of panic and fear.

"Mmrrph." Came a sleepy grumble from somewhere close to her head, "What is it?" It was then that she remembered where she was. She had fallen asleep with William in his dorm.

"William," She murmured with a sigh of relief.

"What is it Lita? What's wrong?" William asked sleepily.

"Nothing, I'm fine." Aelita whispered, leaning back into William and resting her head on his chest.

William wrapped his arms tighter; "You know you can tell me anything right?"

"I know." Aelita mumbled sleepily.

I know it's a little short but oh well. There's the prophecy for ya. Hope you like it, please review!
