Jason was the first to hear Jeremie's phone ring.

"Yeah, Ulrich?" Jeremie asked with a yawn. After about a minute, his eyes widened. "I'll be right there! Try to keep Odd quiet, it's four in the morning." He hung up and went to run out the door. Jason got up and ran after him.

MINUTES EARLIER

Ulrich had found Odd curled up in the bathroom, it looked like he could have a panic attack.

"Odd?" He asked, "Odd? You okay?"

"No..." Odd said sharply. Ulrich noticed that his voice was different.

"Odd, what's wrong?"

"Because XANA did do something to the scanner... He must have given me a virus or something..."

Ulrich now noticed Odd's body shape, it was different too. Odd was shaking now, and Ulrich didn't know if it was out of anger or fear.

"Odd, just tell me what's wrong, you're scaring me." He was honestly concerned at this point. Odd looked up, revealing his face.

"I'M A GIRL, ULRICH! XANA TURNED ME INTO A GIRL!"

Ulrich just stood there for a second, then ran back to the room, grabbed his phone, and called Jeremie.

THE PRESENT

Jeremie was in Odd and Ulrich's room almost immediately. He could have joined a sprinting team with his speed. He saw Odd sitting on the bed. He didn't look too different, but the two bumps on her chest made it obvious.

"Odd," Jeremie panted, "What happened in Lyoko?"

"What do you mean?" Odd asked, her voice made it too obvious.

"When I asked if you were okay."

"Oh, nothing really," She shrugged, "Jason and I fell over in pain from blinding headaches."

"That's not supposed to happen in Lyoko," Ulrich pointed out, "Maybe XANA did something when he went into the scanner."

"Jeremie, is Odd okay?" Jason asked as he walked up to the door. He saw Odd.

"Oh god... That's what that was."

"What do you mean, 'That's what that was'?" Odd asked.

"XANA must have taken a DNA sample from me," Jason explained, rubbing the back of his head, "My sister and I have identical DNA. If you haven't noticed that already, it's a medical mystery on why I'm a guy. XANA must have singled out the part that controls gender and used the scanner to graft it into Odd."

"I didn't know you knew genetics or computers," Jeremie said, slightly surprised at the sudden increase in intelligence.

"Just genetics," Jason shrugged, "I just know that the scanners break you down by the molecule. That can make genetic manipulation easier. It may be why XANA did this using the scanner."

"But how would XANA know which scanner you would use?" Ulrich asked.

"It doesn't matter, my DNA is so unique that it could have affected anyone. Odd just happened to be the unintended target."

"Hello, are we forgetting someone here?" Odd said angrily.

"Sorry Odd," Jeremie said, "Just try to get some sleep, it's still pretty early. I'll see if Aelita can help with..." He gestured at Odd's whole body, trying to think of what to say, "This."

Odd sulked for a minute, then said, "Okay Jeremie, I'll try to sleep."

Odd laid down and shut her eyes.

Odd sat bolt upright. That was the weirdest dream he had ever had. He didn't know what he'd do if he turned onto a girl. Kiwi was laying on his lap, but Odd felt very strange. Looking at the clock, he could tell he'd missed breakfast. He was going to get out of bed when he noticed something, since when could he remember his dreams perfectly?

Now he noticed the weight, he looked down to see that it wasn't a dream. The same panic that hit him last night had kicked in again. She literally freaked out, but refrained from screaming, it was more like a series of gasps and thrashing around, trying to not make a scene.

Kiwi watched this, cocking his head. He knew it was his master, but at the same time, it wasn't. It was too much for his little mind to comprehend, so he just went with it.

Odd grabbed her phone and called Jeremie.

"Odd, you're awake," Jeremie said, surprised.

"Jeremie, I thought it was a dream, but it wasn't!" Odd felt tears coming on, how could this be happening to him?

"Odd, calm down," He said slowly, "Ulrich's got you playing sick today, try to get past Jim when classes end and meet us at the factory."

"What if I get caught? If Jim catches me it's all over."

"Aelita will come and get you then. Until then, just don't leave your room." The phone hung up, Odd heard the school bell from the nearby building.

Now what am I going to do? She saw Kiwi staring at her.

"I bet you wanna eat, don't you Kiwi?"

HOURS LATER

Odd was laying on the floor, she had fallen over quite a few times, trying to get used to the new center of gravity. She felt hungry, miserable, and ready to go. Then there was a knock on the door.

"Hey. Aelita," Odd said as she opened the door.

"Hello Odd," She said, but then saw her friend when the door opened. Odd's hair had grown out in the past night. He was also a little shorter, and had a very delicate frame. Odd was still in her night clothes too. Altogether, she looked like a mess.

"I brought some..." She held up a bag, but it just seemed awkward to be handing it to Odd, "Ummm, clothes. I figured you would need some that would fit you now"

Odd opened the bag, inside were a pink t-shirt, dark pink pants, and a set of girls' underwear. Odd froze at that last part. He stared at what he believed to be Aelita's underwear for a few seconds, then Aelita got his attention.

"Do you need any help with the bra?"

Odd blushed at this, it was so humiliating, if XANA wanted him to die of embarrassment, he might win this one. Odd took the bag and shut the door, leaving the pink-haired girl outside, waiting.

Odd stripped down, then caught herself in the mirror. It was creepy looking at the nude girl, knowing it was him. She started to get dressed. Thank you Aelita, thank you for not grabbing a skirt! He thought as he got the pants on.

"Aelita?" She called after she cracked the door.

"You ready Odd?"

"Yeah, I guess."

"Maybe I should help with your hair."

"What!" Odd was shocked, he was the only one to style his hair, and only krabs were allowed to mess it up.

"Look at it, if you're going to be a girl for even a day, it can't look like that."

"Okay..." Odd gave in as Aelita grabbed her arm and pulled to the girls' bathroom. Once there, Aelita pulled a hair brush out. Odd tried to fight as Aelita brushed the hair down.

"Stop moving, Odd," She said, "I can't get it straight if you keep fidgeting."

"Can't we just gel it into a spike like before?"

"The goal is to make you not look like your old self." She got stuck on a knot and tried to pull it out.

"Alright, it's done, it's done!" Odd pulled away and looked into the mirror. She looked nothing like she did before. Her blonde hair was straight down and the purple spot was still over her forehead. Dear God, I look like a blonde Sissi!

"Here," Aelita said, handing Odd a head band, "This will cover the spot up."

Odd really did not like this look. He wanted the spike back.

"Let's go," Aelita said, gesturing to leave, "Jeremie was expecting us about thirty minutes ago."

"What!"

They ran to the factory entrance in the woods, picking up their pace with every second. It was hilarious when Odd got on his skateboard. The shifted weight made it near impossible to ride it. Aelita couldn't help but laugh at this. They got the the factory and entered the elevator, going down to the Lab.

"What took you so long?" Jeremie asked as they stepped out onto the Lab's metal floor.

Once Odd stepped out, Yumi burst out laughing.

"Hahaha!" She shouted, "This is too good!"

"Shut up Yumi." Odd muttered, crossing her arms.

"Odd," Yumi began, "It's just too ironic. You were kind of a wannabe playboy, now you're a girl. It's like karma isn't on you're side."

"Well, hopefully Jeremie's figured out the problem." Odd looked at Jeremie tentatively, "Right Jeremie?"

"First, go to the scanner room so I can figure out exactly what happened." Jeremie said, pointing to the elevator. He seemed very aggrivated. Maybe because someone had prevented the best night of sleep he would have ever had.

Odd felt a little scared at this tone. She turned around and got into the elevator. In the scanner room, she entered a scanner, and heard the machine to start up.

"Just close your eyes, Odd," She heard Jeremie say, "I'm not sending you to Lyoko, it's just a scan."

Odd could see the lights move past her eyelids, scanning her DNA.

"Alright, Odd, step out and head back up here."

When Odd arrived in the Lab again, everybody but Jason was crowded around the monitors. Jason was standing by the mess Odd had made the previous night, examining it. Odd went over to Jeremie.

The young genius turned and looked at his friend, his face looked depressed.

"I don't know how to say this..."

"What? What is it Jeremie?"

"XANA was very... Thorough with your DNA."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Odd asked, laughing a little to lessen the blow he knew was coming.

Jeremie was silent for a while, then tried to form his thoughts into words. "Well... there is a theory I can try, it worked when I had accidentally deleted Aelita, but these are different conditions."

"What's the idea?"

"Well, we can get a piece of your DNA from before you were turned into a girl and scan it into the computer, then I set it as a default for your genetic makeup. It should work, given you still have the same hormones."

"She doesn't." Jason said in the background. He was looking at the puddle, well staring at it intently.

"What do you mean?" Odd asked, scared at this statement. She walked up to him and he pointed to the mess.

"You see how the center is pinkish?"

"Yeah." Odd said.

"And the outer rim is clear?"

"Yeah," Odd looked at him, "What's your point."

"Testosterone, the primary male hormone, is a whitish color, and normally attached to red blood cells, like Hemoglobin. The reason why you could barely walk back to your room last night was because you had thrown up about a third of your blood supply."

"You're saying that this is my manhood on this floor?"

"To put it plainly, yes."

"So, what does it mean for me?"

"How do I say this..." He trailed off, trying to form a sentence that would make sense. Finally, he found the two words he was looking for, "You're stuck."

That was it, plain and simple. Odd was stuck like this. "How am I going to tell my parents?"

"That's your first thought?" Ulrich asked, looking strangely at Odd.

"Well, I mean, do I say 'Mom, Dad, you have six daughters and no son' or do I just keep it a secret?"

"Odd," Yumi began, "There are more important issues than how you'll tell your family. Where are you going to live? You can't stay with Ulrich."

"Why?" Odd asked.

Ulrich blushed at the simple question, "Odd," He started, rubbing the back of his head, "You're a girl, wouldn't it be a little awkward to be sleeping in the same room with me?"

"And if Jim found out, he'd have a stroke and a heart attack at the same time!" Yumi said.

Aelita butted in, blushing, "Plus, Odd, I can't keep lending you my underwear!"

At that moment, every one was silent.

"You lent Odd your underwear?" Jason asked, starting to smile, "Why?"

"Oh Jason," Lilly said, breaking her daylong silence, "I think you'd understand, Mr. I-wear-girls'-boxers."

Jason blushed deeply, his ears felt like they were on fire, "I can't help it, none of the boys' sizes fit me!"

"Wow," Ulrich said, laughing, "Are they pink?"

"Shut up! Let's just change the subject!" Jason felt so humiliated by this. Because he had his sister's build, he'd had to wear girls' clothing for a long time. It wasn't until he was ten that he could wear boys' jeans. Boys' shirts still didn't fit him, though, the shoulders were too broad for him.

"Alright," Lilly said laughing, "I'm sorry." They hugged, which creeped out Ulrich and Odd.

"Well," Odd said, "I guess I should get used to this." She gestured to her entire body.

"Don't worry Odd," Yumi said, reassuringly, "We'll help you fit right in. Give it a month, and you'll be just like the rest of the girls."

They left the factory, Odd walking just as slow as last time. He was so depressed. How could this happen? Why did it happen to him? In the supercomputer, XANA was trying to find out why it happened as well.
