Hello everyone, sorry I've been gone for so long. I was going through some hard times, both emotional and technical. However, now that shouldn't be a problem, and I'll be posting more regularly. While I was a way, I've gone over my story many times and thought I could have done better. A while ago I decided that I will do better and decided to redo my story. For those of you who like my story before, you'll love this. For those of you new to my story, I welcome you and and ask that you please enjoy my work. And now without further ado, I present to you

I don't own code: lyoko, if I did, I wouldn't be writing a fan fic. I'd make movies of all the best fan fics. that I've read.

Tale of the ten swords

By

This story takes place at the end of the second season, in episode 52, "the key", where a missing "fragment" of Aelita is used to lure the lyoko warriors into SECTOR V. Once there, one by one the warriors fell; leaving Aelita to face the Scyphozoa alone

: Supercomputer; Jeremy's pov:

"Aelita, NOOOO." Jeremy cried as he watched Aelita's slowly slip away.

"Beep beep, beep beep…" a small screen popped up on the monitor. As their eyes fell upon the pixilated words, their hearts plunged into deeps of despair.

: General pov:

Yumi sank to her knees as she stared at the screen in horror.

"No it can't be…it's not possible" she whispered in shock.

"God dammit," Ulrich said as he slammed his fist into the wall, "dammit, dammit, dammit," he said as he repeatedly slammed his fist into the wall ignoring the pain shooting through his arm, "this can't be; it can't end like this."

"It has Ulrich" Ulrich stared at his friend. His fists were balled so tight that his knuckles were white; tears were streaming down his face, "XANA, that bastard, he finally did it, he got Aelita's memory and we couldn't stop him."

Yumi stared at Odd, he was taking this almost as hard as Jeremy, and he was taking this extremely hard. She and Ulrich knew how much he cared for her. She was like a little sister to him, and he wasn't able to protect her.

"Maybe, maybe not." Jeremy says, his finger flying across the key board at a speed that could only be matched by Aelita.

"Jeremy, what are you doing" Yumi asked as she watched him type away like a man possessed.

Instead of answering her question, he asked one of his own.

"Revenge is a dish best served cold, wouldn't you say, Odd?" he says as he continued typing.

Odd thought about it for a moment. Slowly a grin/sneer made its way across his face.

"The colder, the better, I say. What do you have in mind, Jer.?" He says as he made his way to stand next to Jeremy.

Yumi and Ulrich glanced at each other; neither knew what the two were talking about, but right now those two were the scariest duo alive. It seemed as if the loss of Aelita has caused a change in these two. The cool/fun demeanor of Odd was gone as was Jeremy's calm/collective attitude, replacing these two were two torn souls, who sought nothing else be vengence.

: Jeremy/Odd pov:

"I'm uploading a program into your laser arrows; you'll only get one clear shot after that you're on your own. Should you miss your first shoot you're either going to have to hit the Scyphozoa or XANA himself, that's if he shows up."

"No sweat, Jer, just tell me what I need to do." Odd said as he laid a hand a hand on Jeremy's shoulder "Don't worry Jer, XANA gonna find out that when you take one of us, there's going to be hell to pay."

"Thanks, now here's the plan." He lends over and whispered his plan into Odds ear

: General Pov:

"Yumi," they called over in unison, "we need you over here."

"What can I do to help?" Yumi asked, feeling awkward and a little scared. She and Ulrich had never seen these two like this before.

"Odd and I are going to lyoko and we need you to send us there." Stated Jeremy

"Why not send all of us at once?" asked Ulrich.

"Because Odd is the only one I'll need to start things off , when things get hairy then you two come in. If things don't go as plan you two need to escape. Chances are if things do go bad, it'll be too late for us to get out, so we're counting on you two to continue fighting, get new recruits and let the world know of XANA. I won't lie to you; this will be, by far, bigger than anything we've faced before. This may very well be the last time we set foot on earth or lyoko.

"Tell me, Jeremy, what are the odds" Ulrich said looking to his pained friend

"Believe me, you don't want to know" he says as he rises from his seat

"C'mon Ulrich, you know better than to ask for the odds, it's always worse than what you want to hear." Odd says, a joyless smile upon his face.

"Hey, c'mon guys," Odd says, "don't worry, we'll be alright." Odd walks up to Ulrich, and put a hand on his shoulder. "We won't go down that easily."

With that Jeremy and Odd started off two the elevator

"Hey," the two look back, "Give 'em hell"

"Of course." replies Jeremy.

"Wouldn't dream of doing otherwise" Odd says as he locks fore-arms with Ulrich, and a nod Odd heads off to the elevator with Jeremy already inside, waiting to start their decent. After pressing the switch and the doors began to close, the same feeling swept over each and every one of them; though they tried to deny it, they each felt as if they we see each other for the last time. And then the doors were shut, the hum of the engines could be heard as the elevator brought them to their final stop before they gone from this world.

Ulrich moved over to where Yumi sat at the monitor and watch as Odd and Jeremy entered the scanner room.

: Scanner room/Jeremy's pov:

As he stepped into the scanner, Jeremy was a little scared, see as how this was his second time going to lyoko, and then he remembered why he was standing inside the scanner and felt his pain melt away any traces of fear he felt, leaving him with icy determination.

"Prepare yourself, X.A.N.A., cause I'm coming for you." Jeremy swears silently to himself as the scanner doors close.

"Transfer Odd, Transfer Jeremy. Scanner Odd, Scanner Jeremy, Virtualization"
