From now until I tell you the story is a flashback. I think I told you this last chapter, but whatever. If the few people who read my first chapter before I posted this where wondering what the heck my prophecy was about; the next chapter explains all about my wonderful prophecy. So you will have to wait! Muahahaha! By the way thanks for the few reviews I did get, and thanks for waiting so long for me to update! So here is my second chapter. Read and enjoy!
Chapter Two:
Finding of the Prophecy
Jeremy POV
"I can't believe Xana hasn't done anything," I said to everyone as we sat at our bench.
"Knowing Xana he probably has a nasty surprise for us up his sleeve," Odd said in his normal cheery voice.
"I know what you mean Jeremy," Aelita said to me, "He's been up there a week and he has done nothing."
"Yeah Aelita," Ulrich put in, "Even when we went to Lyoko to look for your Dad yesterday he didn't attack us with monsters."
"Well, I agree with Odd," Yumi said, "He's probably saving up his strength, or waiting for us to let our guards down."
Aelita nodded, looking down at her feet, she raised her head and opened her mouth, as if to say something. Then she shook her head and looked back down at her feet.
"What is it Aelita?" I asked concerned.
She looked up again, "Well, I was wondering if we could go to the Hermitage again," she smiled weakly at us and looked back down, "I've been having dreams again, but this time I think they are real memories."
I nodded smiling and so did Ulrich, Odd and Yumi. Aelita looked up at us with wide eyes.
"We should go," I said, "We have not all been there since we found Mr. Puck, maybe we will find something else."
"Do you mean it?" Aelita asked, "Every other time we have been something horrible happens."
"We're sure," Yumi said as Ulrich and Odd nodded in agreement behind her.
"So, if your read Aelita," Odd said, "Let's be off to the Hermitage."
Yumi POV
We all walked up to the gates of the Hermitage slowly. The large building loomed ahead. I watched as Aelita grabbed Jeremy's hand and I itched to do the same to Ulrich, but instead I just crossed my arms and kept walking.
Odd ran ahead to the door and called back to us, "Let's hope nothing attacks us this time!"
Ulrich laughed and added, "Or attempts to drown us or melt us alive!" he looked over to me and smiled.
I couldn't resist smiling back, not that I didn't want to. "I'm going to beat you to the house," I said slyly.
"Oh no you're not," he replied and ran off.
"No fair!" I yelled at him while laughing, "You started before me!" I ran after him and soon I caught up with him. We were going head to head. I could hear Jeremy and Aelita cheering us on. Odd, who was in front of us, stood at the door waiting for the winner. With a last burst of energy I ran ahead of Ulrich and beat him.
"And Yumi wins!" Odd shouted.
I leaned against the wall panting. Ulrich ran up to me and I smiled. He knelt down on his knees and stuck his tongue out at me. I stuck out my tongue back at him.
"Come on you guys," Jeremy said laughing as he and Aelita reached us, "Let's stop fooling around."
"Stop fooling around, Jeremy?" Odd asked, "We all know you're the king of fooling around, how could you of all people stop?"
This remark received a giggle from Aelita. Jeremy just glared at Odd and he smiled.
"Come on Jeremy," Aelita pouted and walked up to Jeremy and put a finger under his chin, "Let's stop fooling around." Then she smiled at him wickedly and skipped off into the Hermitage.
The rest of us followed, and well, the part of Jeremy that was till on Earth.
Aelita POV
As soon as I stepped into the Hermitage my good mood was shattered. I was flooded with memories, of my father, my mother, and my past life. I had a sudden realization that I had been stuck in Lyoko for twenty years before Jeremy found me! I'm technically about thirty-five years old!
I fell to my knees, the wash of memories and feeling overwhelming me. In the back of my mind I could hear Jeremy and the others calling my name, trying to wake me up. I felt tears sting my eyes and fall across my face. And suddenly I remembered something.
My father had told me that whenever I needed to recollect my thoughts I should recite a poem or a piece or writing quietly aloud. I closed my eyes and the first thing that popped into my head was the poem that my father had made me memorize the year before we went to Lyoko. He had heard this poem in a dream. He had called it a prophecy.
"When world's, " I said trying to remember, "world's destruction . . . "
I shook my head in frustration. I could feel the eyes of the others on me as I sat on the ground. I couldn't remember the poem my father had made me memorize. He had told me it was vital to remember, that it was a prophecy that involved me.
"His journal," I said aloud. He used to write all his thoughts in that little book. I stood up and walked toward the stairs.
"Are you OK Aelita?" Jeremy asked, cautiously walking up to me. He was obviously thinking it was Xana.
I nodded my head as I kept on walking. They followed me up to my father's old room. Without thinking I thrust my hand under his mattress and pulled out a small battered old notebook. I smiled at it and flipped to the first page. I looked at it and there was the poem. It was titled the Prophecy of . . . I gasped, it was titled The Prophecy of Lyoko.
Oh, a cliffhanger! Muahahaha! Yeah, so this chapter was much longer than my last one. That is why it is so much longer. So I have decided to have a contest like things each chapter I can remember. Just put your answer in your review and whoever wins gets that next chapter dedicated to them! Yay!
So this chapter's contest question is:
What country do you think the new girl is going to come from?
