Chapter 5

Is it a Lie?

"Alright, get into the scanners and I'll send you to Lyoko," Jeremy said as he rushed out of the elevator and to the supercomputer.

He slipped on his headset and rapidly typed on the keyboard. Soon Ulrich's, Yumi's, Odd's, Dani's, and Aelita's Lyoko player cards appeared on the screen.

The elevator roared to a stop on the floor with the scanners and the five piled in.

"Who's first?" Jeremy asked over the intercom.

Before Odd could run into a scanner, Dani pulled his arm. "I have to talk to you," she said with concern.

"Umm.. okay," Odd answered uneasily.

"We'll go ahead," Yumi said. She, Ulrich, and Aelita stepped into the scanners and the virtualization process started.

"Whats up Dani?" Odd asked after the scanner doors closed.

"Something's been bugging me lately and I think you can help me," Dani replied.

"W-what do you mean?" Odd said.

"The rumor about us dating," Dani blurted.

Odd instantly blushed but turned his face. "Yea? What about it?"

"What do you mean 'what about it'?" Dani said sounding a bit angry.

"Well I mean, what about it," Odd answered with confusion.

"I knew it! So you made up the lie that we were dating!" Dani shouted.

"Wait a minute! No I didn't!" Odd replied.

"Well then why did Milly and Tamiya tell me you told them that we were dating?" Dani said.

"Wait you asked them about it?" Odd answered. "Why?"

"Because I wanted to know who made up such a lie!" Odd's face fell when he heard that. Was the idea of the two being together ridiculous to her? It's time Odd told Dani how he really felt.

"Listen Dani, I-," Odd got cut off by the scanner doors hissing open.

"Forget it," Dani sighed. "So far you're the prime suspect in all this and I just want you to-to leave me alone!"

Dani stepped into the scanner and the doors hissed shut.

Odd did the same and stepped into a scanner. His fists were clenched and he bit his lip in frustration.

Whoever made up these rumors had to be stopped. Not only was it tearing apart the school, but it tearing apart his love life.
