Elisabeth POV
It's been a long and tiring day seeing as me and the others were stuck in science class listening to a guest speaker go on and on about a nuclear power generators. I felt myself zone out as I let my eyes wonder a bit to see Ulrich looking out the window, and Odd who saw sitting next to him doodling on a pieces of paper. My eyes then wonder to the other side of the room to see Charles sleeping on his notebook and Sarah taking note for the both of them. Finally, I looked to the person next to me to see Jeremy writing on his notebook like his life depends on it as I just sat in class trying to keep up with the speaker without falling asleep. I let out a silent moan looking back at the speaker as he ask the class if we had any question which Jeremy hand quickly came up.
"Sir I like to know if an atomic process exist using virtual particle and materializing it in the real world?"
I felt my lip turning upward hearing Jeremy asking a question about bring back Aelita. I turn back to the speaker and saw a very strict look on his face as he look at Jeremy.
"Son that is in the realm of science fiction, sorry but what you're asking does not exist in the real world."
I look back at Jeremy to see him glare at the speaker as I felt myself getting a little mad as well. Mrs. Herz spoke before Jeremy could say anything stating that Jeremey is a smart student but a little bit of a dreamer. I felt bad for Jeremy as everyone laugh at him as I pat him on the shoulder for giving him a small smile.
Suddenly the screen project that was use for the presentation went out as I heard a sound that sounded like an electric current. We all turn to Mrs. Herz who tried to fix the projector stating it must have been a blown fuse. I look to the others as Jeremy had calm look on his face before nodding his head.
The bell rang as the six of us left the classroom to meet up with Yumi. During our walk, I listen to Jeremy and Charles arguing with Odd and Ulrich on how Xana might be the one who causes the projector to fail. However, Odd stated it was a short circuit and that they were looking too much into it. Me and Sarah just laugh at the boys as they kept arguing as we saw Yumi waiting for us outside. The two of us rush to Yumi telling her about the boys as she just rolled her eyes. I saw about to tell Yumi more on what was going on but I heard my father calling to me and Odd as I saw him walking towards us.
"Elisabeth, Odd I'm glad I found you, I've thought it over and you two may form your little group, the…uh Fox truck fanatic."
Me and Odd cheered giving each other a high five as Yumi correct my father saying it was call "Pop Rock Progressive" My father nodded as he continue speaking ,stating we can have the band on the condition that the band have to be open to anyone who wishes to play. Me and Odd quickly agree to that as my father turn around and began walking away. Odd had a big smile on his face as he slid on the ground shouting.
"YEAAA! Let hear it for the god of rock and roll."
I just smile at him as the other looked at Odd giving him a smirk. I turn to Jeremy asking him to help us photocopy some flyer so we can pass it around the school, but he told me that he wanted to check out what happen at the science class. Charles said he would accompany him as we said our goodbye going our separate ways.
Jeremy POV
Me and Charles sat in our room as I was busy typing on the computer as Charles brought the projector to our room to examining it.
"Hi Jeremy… Is something wrong ?"
Aelita pop up on my screen as I look over some data on another window. I did not say anything to Aelita not wanting to worry her as I continue typing one the computer.
"You know if you ever have a problem you know you could talk to be about it?"
I suddenly felt my face turn red as I heard Charles snicker at me. I quickly turn around throwing a book at him telling him to continue his work as he let out a laugh. I turn back to the monitor looking at the screen and spoke to Aelita
"Aelita we had a power failure in class, and the school electricity seem to be having problem."
I did not hear Aelita respond right away as she appear on my screen smiling at me. "And you think Xana behind this Jeremy." I just smirk at Aelita "You never know" I ask Aelita if anything happen at Lyoko but she said everything has been quieted. I nodded my head as I told her I was going to do a scan on Lyoko to check for any activated towers. After I finish that, I stood up getting ready to go.
"Where are you going?" "To the cafeteria they got Brussel sprout today."
I heard Aelita laugh as she said I was the only one she ever knows that like such a thing. I could not help but smile at her as Charles stood next to me throwing his arm around my shoulder.
"Only our man Jeremy would think such a foul food is good." "Hey Brussel Sprout is good."
I sat in front of Ulrich who pushes his tray away wiping his mouth as he ate the Brussels sprout. I saw Charles gave me a look as I roll my eyes kicking him under the table.
"Odd, Elisabeth what are you two up to now?"
I look towards Odd and Elisabeth to see Jim talking to them about the audition for their band. Jim look at the flyer as Elisabeth and Odd was handing out the paper stating they need a drummer for their band. I notice Nicolai held out his hand for the flyer as he look at Odd. Odd did not seem like he want to give the flyer to him, but Elisabeth swoop in handing him a flyer to Nicholai and dragging Odd with her. I wonder why she did that but realize why, when I look at Laura face to see a mad look on her face.
Elisabeth POV
The seven of us stood outside near a vending machine as Odd was trying to pick a drink. Odd was taking too long so Ulrich help him chose by coming up from behind and push one of the drinks Odd did not like. I giggle at this seeing as Odd address how the vending machines seem to be busted again. I look over to Jeremy as Sarah asks if he worry. Jeremy nodded his head as telling us that Charles and him were going to go check things out back in their room. Yumi told them that if they need us we would be in the gym holding audition.
I sat next to Odd as the five of us look at Mike playing his drum. His drum skill was good and he did not seem to miss a beat, but it did not feel like the drum skill we need. Yumi told Mike that we were searching for something more as Mike just shrugs his shoulder and left. When I saw the next person come in, I quickly look at Odd to see his mouth was already on the floor. I quickly elbow Odd in the stomach before he could say anything as I greeted Naomi. Sarah told Naomi that she did not know she play the drum. Naomi said she play a little and that she always wanted to join a band. When Naomi started to plays the drum, I could tell she was a novice as I kept my smile up not wanting to hurt her feeling. When she finish I was about to say something but Odd cut me off
"Great Naomi that was fantastic." Odd than turn to us as we stare at us, "Well we are not going to find anyone better." I quickly glare at Odd as I force him to sit back down as I told Naomi she did well, but was not what we were looking for. Naomi bow to us again as she walk out. As Naomi left I quickly swat Odd over the head telling him not to pick our drummer just because they look good in a dress.
Jeremy POV
I look at my computer screen, as all the number that came up on screen did not adds up as I call Aelita. Aelita soon appear on my screen asking if I had any new info. I could not respond to her when my eyes widen seeing the screen suddenly started scrambling before it went blank.
"Aelita!"
I quickly rush to a nearby lamp trying to turn it on but it look like the power was out. Charles walk into the room as I gave him a look as the two of us rush out our dorm heading outside. When we got to the fence of the school, we notice one of the pylons was giving off a lot of static as we rush back to the gym.
Elizabeth POV
I was still a little bit upset with Odd about Naomi but I push it aside as we continue our audition. I suddenly heard the door swung open as I saw Jeremy and Charles run in looking like they just run a marathon. The two of them ran towards us telling us that the power failure was Xana doing as we all had serious look on our face.
Jeremy explains that the current is being cut all around the school and that one of the pylon outside of the school had a high voltage and that it could explode. We were all about to get up and go when the door to the gym open again revealing Laura and her goonies. Laura state she did not want to be here but that Nicolai like playing the drum. Odd stated something about Nicolai playing with his mom pot and pan as drum as I elbow him. Jeremy quickly stood up as he said him, Sarah, and Charles are heading to the factory to check thing up and that he will keep us posted.
As Jeremy and the others left I turn to Nicolai telling him to give it a shot as I gave him a friendly smile. I felt Odd tug on my hand as he give me a sour look.
"Why are you being so friendly with Nicolai… Do you like him?"
I just laugh at Odd not saying anything as I sat down waiting for him to play. Nicolai started to play the drum, and all I did was sit back and watch looking toward my other friends who had a bewilder look on their face. Laughing to myself, I carefully look towards Laura who stare at Ulrich as I rolled my eyes. When Nicolai was done playing, I clap my hand for him as Yumi and Ulrich did the same. Odd did not do anything as he sat there still looking a little sour.
I thank Nicolai as he left with Laura as Odd stated he did not wanted Nicolai in the band. I told him he was a good drummer and that he would be great member for the band. Odd gave me a stern look stating that the only reason I want him in the band was because I like him I glare at him.
"You're just mad because we did not want Naomi in the band." "Well you just jealous that Naomi is prettier that you."
I stare at Odd looking a little hurt as Odd just stare at me. I was going to say something back to Odd but was cut off when we heard someone play the Trumbo. We all turn towards the person to see Jim as we all stare at him with a confuse look.
"Do you guys need A Trumbo player by any chance?"
Jeremy POV
Me Charles, and Sarah finally made it to the Factor as I took a seat on the super computer typing on the computer as Charles stood on my left and Sarah on my right. I keep switching my gaze on the monitor and towards the hologram as I try to find what was going on.
"Aelita sorry about the outage what new?"
Aelita appear on my screen telling me that I was right to feel worry as she told me Xana activate a tower. I quickly look over to the screen to see that the tower was located at the desert region I told Aelita that I was going to send Sarah and that she need to be careful
Sarah quickly rushes to the elevator as she headed down to the scanner room. I felt Charles leaning on the chain as he grip the head rest tight in his hand. I knew what he was thinking as I kept typing on the computer to get the virtualization ready.
"Wish we could join them again…"
Elisabeth POV
The four of us just sat there watching Jim play his Trumbo until he was finish. When Jim finish playing Odd carefully told Jim that we were a rock band and not a military band. I saw Jim was about to say something to that but I heard Yumi phone ring. Yumi answer the phone than quickly told Jim that we would have to audition him another time. I suddenly knew what was going on as I stood up getting ready to go.
Jim started talking about not letting us leave until we let him in the band but we did not listen as we rush out of the building and head straight for the factory. When we got to the factory we saw Jeremy typing on the computer telling us what Xana was up to. He said that Xana is building up voltage into the pylon and planning to unleash it into a nuclear plant. We all look a little shock knowing that if Xana succeed thousands of life would be lost. Jeremy said that he sent Charles out to try to see how much damage is it doing and that Sarah was already in Lyoko with Aelita.
Jeremy was about to say that we should get to the teleported but Yumi stated that this maybe a little too much for us to handle. We all gave her a shock look as Yumi explain that we might need to take this up to the authority seeing as if we make one mistake a lot of people will suffer. Jeremy told Yumi that he understand but it would not do them any good because of all the questions that would be asked and it may already be too late. In addition to them knowing about Aelita and wanting to turned the supercomputer off.
"I know that but were talking about a nuclear disaster if we make one wrong move a lot of people will get hurt. I do not think we have the right resource to do this"
Both Jeremey and Yumi stare at each other as I felt a little bit worry about this. Jeremy let out a sigh saying we would put this to a vote. Me, Jeremy and Odd stated we do not tell the authority while Yumi and Ulrich was for it. I smile think that we were not going to say anything until I heard Aelita voice
"Don't we have the right to vote?"
We all turn to the computer screen seeing Aelita and Sarah who was with her. Jeremy said that they had a vote as well as both of them vote for telling the authority. My eyes grew wide hearing what Aelita and Sarah said as Jeremy stay quieted.
"Look Jeremy, Elisabeth I do not want thousands of people to die because you guy are trying to save me. I talk it over with Sarah and this seem to be the right choice."
Jeremy did not say anything as he look down at the keyboard. I walk towards the computer, as I look Aelita directly in the eyes. "Are you sure about this?" Aelita nodded her head as she smile at me as Jeremy look back up. "Just as you guys can't risk seeing me hurt I can't risk the same thing." I look at Jeremy as he smile at her.
"Odd, Ulrcih you two get to the scanner. Elisabeth, Yumi you guys go to school, the guest speaker from this morning should still be there. Try and warn him about what is going on and hurry." I nodded my head as the four of us rush to the elevator.
Normal POV (Real World/factory)
Odd Ulrich rush to the scanner as they got into their pod.
"Transfer Odd, transfer Ulrich, scanning Odd, scanning Ulrich, virtualization"
Lyoko Desert Area
Odd and Ulrich made it to the desert area as they saw Aelita and Sarah waiting for them. Ulrich calmly look to the distance as Odd spoke
"Were going to make it Ulrich?" "I sure hope so Odd."
The four Lyoko warriors hear Jeremy calling from the Super computer telling them he located to tower giving them direction. All four of them head to the location hoping to make it to the tower in time.
(Real World/ School)
Yumi and Elisabeth got out of the manhole as they rush to get to school. Yumi stay a few feet behind Elisabeth feeling a little guilty about the argument with Jeremy knowing how much Aelita mean to them.
"Elisabeth you know I do not want anything bad to happen to Aelita don't you?"
Elisabeth did not say anything as they got to school ground stopping in front of the building to Elisabeth father office.
"I know you and Ulrich mean well… It just I do not want to see Aelita hurt again."
Yumi place a hand on Elisabeth shoulder as she tell her that they will bring Aelita to earth as the two girl smile as they head in side
"By the way Elisabeth, don't take what Odd say to heart. You know how stupid boys can be, and I know he wasn't serious about you not being as pretty as Naomi. You know that Odd think you're the prettiest girl in our school."
Elisabeth kept quite as Yumi saw her face turn red as the finally made to her father office.
"I'm sorry to disturb you father but this is very important. I know this may sound very crazy but the nuclear plant is in danger of blowing up."
The three adult that stood in the room look at the girls confuse not saying anything.
(Lyoko/Desert Section)
The four Lyoko warriors made it to the oasis were the tower was supposed to be at but when they got there, there was no tower in sight.
"What going on, where the Tower?" "I don't know Odd but I'm certain the tower is here seeing as Xana pulsation is strong around this area."
The four kept looking around when they heard Jeremy urgent voice telling them to hurry as the Pylon was building up to eighty-five percent. Jeremy also informs them that Yumi and Elisabeth could not convince her dad about the danger so they need to hurry. The two split up searching around the area as Ulrich went with Odd and Aelita with Sarah.
"So are you going to apologize to Elisabeth?" "I do not know what you mean?"
Ulrich began hitting the ground with his sword hoping to find some sort of opening or illusion.
"You hurt her pretty bad with that comment you said to her."
Ulrich did not hear Odd say anything as he saw him taking a seat next to the pond picking up a rock and he threw it into the water. A beam of light shot up from the water surprising all of them. Odd put his hand in the water realizing it was just an illusion as they all jump into the water to the floor under it.
Getting to the bottom layer of the platform, they saw the tower not too far from them as they burst into a sprint trying to get to the tower. Odd and Ulrich took the lead of the girls as they god close to the tower.
"When I get back I will apologize to Elisabeth."
Ulrich did not say anything as he smile at his friend. The four warriors made it to the tower as a group of Krabs appear shooting Odd in the leg.
"Ow! I hate these horrible Krab"
Four Krabs guard the tower as Ulrich pull out his katana and Sarah hold up her shield.
"Run Aelita they are after you!"
Aelita nodded her head as she started to run towards the tower as the one of the Krabs chase after her shooting Its laser at her. Odd quickly jump in front of it as it hit him devitalizing him in the process. Sarah did not let Odd lost go to waste as she threw her shield taking out the Krabs. The other Krabs began shooting at them as Ulrich quickly got behind Sarah as she uses her shield to protect the both of them.
Preparing for their next assault Sarah quickly dash into a run with Ulrich close behind as the Krabs kept firing at them. Getting close to the Krabs Ulrich shot past Sarah separating into three as he took out one of the Krabs
(Real World/Factory)
Odd came out of the scanner, out of breath as he quickly rushes to the elevator to meet up with Jeremy.
"Odd thanks for saving Aelita but thing are not looking so good. The pylon is already at nighty-five percent soon Xana will be able to attack the nuclear plant.
Yumi and Sarah rush outside the school gate seeing Charles with a group of firefighter working on the Pylon. Yumi and Sarah rush to Charles seeing him try to tell them about the Pylon exploding but all they did was question him as Yumi felt herself get angry.
(Lyoko/Desert Section)
Aletia hid behind some rock as she watches her friends deal with the last two Krabs. Sarah stood in front of the three Ulrich clone holding up her shield protecting them as the Krabs let out a fury of laser. Sarah motion to the Ulrich clone as they nodded their head jumping up allowing both the Krabs to shoot and destroy the two Ulrich clone, Sarah use the distraction to throw her shield hitting one of the Krabs destroying it. The other Krabs knock the shield away as it was coming for it as it shot another attack at Ulrich. Sarah quickly jump in front of Ulrich taking the shot head on as she was devitalize Ulrich quickly put his katana back into his sheath as he sprint towards the last Krab building momentum.
"Ulrich you have to hurry the pylon is over nighty eight percent"
Ulrich pick up more speed as the Krab shot at him hitting his shoulder but he brush it off jumping into the air. Ulrich quickly brought out his katana as landed on the last Krab stabbing it in the eye. Ulrich quickly jump away from the Krab letting it explode as he motion Aelita to enter the tower.
(Real World/ Tower)
Yumi and Elisabeth try to help Charles explain to tell the firefighter everything they about the problem as they look at them confuse. Elisabeth look behind them to see the pylon was giving out to much elasticity and fear that if they don't hurry thing was going to get bad.
Aelita quickly enter the tower as she stood on the platform heading to the second floor.
Jeremy and Odd kept watch on the computer as they see the pylon reaching the peak of exploding.
Aelita step on the second floor walking towards the monitor placing her hand on it.
Elisabeth eyes widen as the Pylon could not hold any more voltage as it started to breakdown letting out a lot of spark as the circuit was now visible and being stream straight to the power plant.
Aelita place her hand of the monitor as it ask for the code to the tower.
Jeremy and Odd held there breath preparing for the worst seeing the Voltage reach one hundred percent.
"Code Lyoko"
The current was close to the power plant when it suddenly stops fizzling away. Jeremy and Odd look at the screen as they notice the pylon voltage was suddenly dropping very quickly
Jeremy let out a sigh of relief as he look at Odd
"You ready for a return trip to the past Odd?"
All the monitor in the tower stated to fall down when suddenly a bright light came from under the tower consuming everything in its light.
Elisabeth POV
Me, Odd, Yumi, and Ulrich were done performing a private show with Jim and Nicolai to our friends plus Herb and Laura, who look really mad to see that we were not that bad. After the performance, Jeremy congratulates us with our performance as Sarah gave me a hug. Charles yell out that he was willing to buys pizza for us as we all cheer and headed for the door. I was going to follow but I felt someone holding my hand. I turn around to see Odd as he was looking at the ground.
"Ahh… Elisabeth… I wanted to apologize on what I said before… I didn't mean what I said when I told you were not as pretty as Naomi."
I could not help but smile as I saw Odd trying to apologize to me.
"I think you are pretty, no wait what I mean was… What I'm trying to say-"
I laugh at Odd not letting him finishes as I gave him a hug and told him I forgave him.
"You're lucky you're cute or I would probably still be mad at you."
Odd finally smile at me as we both laugh. Odd quickly took my hand leading me out of the gym trying to catch up to the other for pizza.
