**KtF DOES NOT OWN ANYTHING CODE LYOKO**

-At the Meeting-

Yumi took her place between her father and Odd at the long table. Her mother on her father's other side along with Hiroki, Jeremy on the other side of Odd. We were all in our best, she in a black kimono with a yellow bow around her waist, her two fans hidden inside it. She still didn't trust this meeting and was ready to do what needed to keep her brother safe. Odd was in a male kimono that was purple, he complained multiple times about how he should be able to just wear his formal robes like Jeremy was. The long table sat on one side of the room while another smaller table sat on the other side, facing each other. It wasn't long till they had showed up.

First in was two guards, dressed in solid black armor and they held a type of spear rumored, but never seen till now. It was a huge shaft with and hollow center, the guards could charge it and fire a red laser at their victims. It was told that they slowly took away your life that one wouldn't kill you but it would hurt like nothing you have ever felt. She shivered at the thought. Next in was his star Warrior who everyone knew, he strutted through Kadic a lot. William, His jet black scruffy hair, he had a cold look in his eyes, till he laid them on yummy, then they were just heartless and his mouth shift to a smirk.

It was hard for her to see her once good friend turned into this monster that was just as rotten as his leader.

Then the King himself came in. No one knew what he looked like, though Yumi was hoping to catch a look at his form they didn't get that, due to the mask that covered his face. It was all black, with the red mark of Xana across the entire face.
He can see us be we can't see him Yumi thought as she watched the armored group site down, two more guards filling in behind the Evil king and his Warrior.

Her father was the first to speak, standing up and bowing slightly, "It is a great honor to have you in our presence again King Xana. " he said formally as he said sat back down, everyone shifting in their seats.
"I believe we came to talk about something, what it is?" Yumi shot in, her voice clearly annoyed as her father and friends shot her a glare. The King just laughed, it sent chills down her back hearing it. It sounded just like a mad killers voice would sound, giving her rerated about speaking up.

"Yes." He purred demonically, something telling her he was smirking under that mask. "Firstly, I know you have a guest. Princess Aelita I believe?" He said and laughed "Well I just wanted to thank you for taking that horrible pain in my neck out of the way" He said and laughed again. Yumi could see out of the corner of her eye the boys. Jeremy was shifting awkwardly at the sound of her name, Odd just clutched the table like he was about to pick it up and throw it at the king.

"Secondly….." He said, his head shifting to look at her, or at least she thought so. "Such a shame a beautiful girl has no callers." He said shifting his head to her fathers

"King Ishiyama I shall say this once. You owe me a great debt, and it's time to pay it up. You have till winter to come up with the money or your children will be mine and your city will be nothing but dust once my warriors are done." He said glancing down the row to Hiroki, who was looking just as shocked as Yumi was. Their father used them as a balance to know they will pay off his debt?

Her father shot up, angry and his guards stepping forward. "Do not speak this way in my home. I will get you your money and you will not bring my children into this. The deal was the Lyoko Warriors would not be formed." He said coldly, glaring at the King "Since you know with them comes your death." The other king just paused and looked at Yumi's father, growling. "You will not speak of them" He said like he was about to kill them all, but turned and waved his guards out "You have till spring Ishiyama. 5 months. I suggest you not waist them, you have a lot to owe." He said and left, a strange coolness in the air leaving also.

They were all silent as her father and mother left.
"Who are the lyoko warriors?" Hiroki asked, crawling into Yumi's lap and her holding him as the four stayed in the room.
"Oh oh! Can I tell it Yumi!" Odd shot up and Yumi just laughed and nodded as the younger boy focused on him.
"Long ago King Xana's master, who went by the name of creator ruled all of Lyoko and Kadic, slowly taking over the world, till five warriors of different abilities came together and set out attacking his forces. They were the only ones who could save the world from his terror. They were all brought together by one great and noble Master of technology, who went by the name Sir Franz Hopper. He was smarter than anyone around even Einstein here" Odd said gesturing back to Jeremy, who was just huffing at the guy, clearly annoyed by his words "Any ways. The five took off and slowly through each part of the world they destroyed the Creators army's and soon, the Creator himself. It was said years ago when Xana got control of Lyoko that the Five would come back and defeat him again, and it is said they will find each other in Kadic, which is why he would want your father to keep them away, but he must want more in their deal" Odd said, getting a nod from Jeremy. Yumi just laughed and shook her head

"Who knew Odd could be smart?" She said jokingly and hearing an annoyed "HEY!" come from her friend
she stood up and brushed off her dress. "Well I'm going to go change before din-"She started but was cut off by a guard coming in
"Sir Odd, there is a boy saying he is he-"
"YES! HE'S HERE!" Odd said happily and raced out of the door "See you guys at dinner!" he said as he rushed off and Jeremy shook his head leaving Yumi to herself.
Who's his guest? She wondered as she went to change. Hopefully he won't be here long since we have work to do
