"Hey, you said you were done." said Odd, as a girl in all black walked by and caught Ulrich's eye.
"You know Ulrich dear." said Sissi, scooting up to him, "I heard she kicked in her last boyfriend's brains."
"Uh, what?" asked Ulrich, in a daze.
"That's not true." said Odd, without reallizing Ulrich had got up and walked away, "Her last boyfriend fell out of a tree and busted his head on a rock."
"Ulrich!" yelled Sissi, as she stood up to look for him.
Ulrich followed the girl in black into the gym.
"Why are you following me?" asked the girl, as she kicked Ulrich into the now closed door.
"Sorry, I just wanted to see if you were going to go to the school dance on friday." said Ulrich, standing up.
"What's it to you?" asked the girl, "I heard what you and your friends were saying about me."
"Sissi isn't really that much of a friend, and Odd," said Ulrich thinking, "Well Odd always gotta one up everyone."
"Get way from my Ulrich!" yelled Sissi, as she busted through the gym doors.
"He's the one who followed me." said the Girl, "I'm outta here."
Yumi heads out the back doors leaving Ulrich and Sissi alone.
"Now that she's gone, this would be the best time for you to ask me to the dance." said Sissi.
"No!" said Ulrich, "Why don't you ask Odd."
Ulrich heads out the back doors of the gym, leaving Sissi alone. Ulrich walks around the campus and bumps into Jeremie, Jeremie ends up dropping his laptop and a stack of discs.
"Sorry about that." said Ulrich, helping to pick up the discs.
"Thanks, I'm running late." said Jeremie, as he grabbed the disc from Ulrich and ran off into the woods.
Ulrich follows Jeremie, wondering if he'd get a chance to see his girlfriend, when he got to a small clearing, Jeremie was gone. Ulrich looked around, trying to find him, but to no avile. Jeremie had disappair into an underground water way, and made his way down to the river, then climbed up a latter to a bridge, that broke from the shoreline. Jeremie walked into the old factory, and slided down a rope that hung were a stair case had clapsed. Jeremie went over the the elevator shaft, and typed in the four digit code, the elevator door opened and Jeremie stepped on and pressed the down button. The Elevator door closed and lowered itself down to the control room, were the door opened and Jeremie walked over to the sepended chair.
"Maya, are you there?" asked Jeremie.
"Yes, Jeremie." said Maya, "I was just looking over some of the videos that you sent me about your world."
"That's good." said Jeremie, "I think I found a way to bring you here."
"Really?" asked Maya.
"Looks like that there are 52 towers spilt up in 4 sectors." said Jeremie, "When the towers are active they link Lyoko with Earth." said Jeremie.
"So, if we find an active tower, I should be able to make it to your world." said Maya.
"Do you want to try it?" asked Jeremie.
"Sure, beats being stuck in this tower." said Maya, "I'm going to scout the area."
"I'm almost finishing a chat link from Lyoko to my laptop." said Jeremie, "If you find a tower glowing Red, you can pull up the link and contact me."
"How would I do that?" asked Maya.
"I'm downloading you the headset." said Jeremie, as a blue tooth device appaired in Maya's hand, "All you have to do is wear this on your ear and press the flasing blue button to call me."
"Thanks Jeremie." said Maya.
While Jeremie heads back to Kadic, Maya exits the tower that she had been in, and looked around at the large trees, Maya followed the pathway passed several towers. As Maya came up to a tower surounded in a white glow, she was attacked by what looks like walking shells, that stood in front of the tower. Maya took off running back to the tower she had been in when more Shells like creaters blocking the tower.
"Jeremie, I need help." said Maya in a panic, as she ran and press the flashing blue button, "I'm being attacked!"
Jeremie was just putting the lid back on the actoces, when he got Maya's message.
"Maya, try to find a place to hide." responded Jeremie, "I'm going to find someone that can help."
"Ok, I'll try." said Maya, as she dove behind a large rock.
Jeremie runs back to Kadic in order to find the only person that he knew could fight and keep a secret. Meanwhile at Kadic, the lights all over start exploding. In the Gym, a ball of black smoke emerged from a light that blow. Ulrich and the Girl in black were taking a marshal arts class, that was taugh by Jim.
"What is that thing?" asked the girl in black.
"I have no idea." said Ulrich.
"Yumi! Ulrich! Run!" yelled Jim, as he jumped in front of them.
Ulrich and Yumi run through the doors to the Cafertria, where they see Sissi and Odd being attacked by a shadowcreacher shooting eleticity from it's hands.
"What the hell is going on?" asked a scared Sissi.
"Help them, I have an idea." said Ulrich, as he took off into the back of the cooking area.
"What ever you're doing, you better hurry up!" yelled Sissi.
Ulrich returns from the back with a fire extingaser, he pulls the pin and takes aim, as Jeremie enters with a garen hose, blasting the Shadow figure with watter, followed by Ulrich blasting it with the Co2 in the extingaser. The Shadow figure appairs to evaporat.
"We have to help Jim." said Yumi.
"Go, I need to barrow Ulrich for another problem." said Jeremie.
Yumi and Odd run to the Gym while Sissi follows Jeremie and Ulrich into the woods.
"What's wrong out here?" asked Ulrich, "Your girlfriend stuck in a tree?"
"Behind a rock." said Jeremie, "You need to keep what I'm about to show you a secret."
"Sure, what ever." said Ulrich.
Jeremie lifts the lid to the water way, and Ulrich followed him down the path to the factory, Sissi followed secretly behind them. Once inside the factory they slide down the rope.
"I'm not going to slide down some dirty old rope." said Sissi.
"How'd you get here?" questioned Jeremie.
"You didn't think that I'd let you run off with my Ulrich alone, did you?" asked Sissi.
"We don't have time for this." said Jeremie, "Leave her."
Jeremie and Ulrich step on to the elevator, as Sissi decides to swing down on the rope, she lands near the elevator an make it on as the door closes. The door reopens in the control room.
"What is this place?" asked Ulrich.
"This is the super computer." said Jeremie, "The only link between Earth and Lyoko."
"Lyoko?" asked Sissi.
"Lyoko is the world that Maya lives on, and she is in trouble." said Jeremie, "I found a way to send a person from this world and send them to Lyoko."
"What's this got to do with me?" asked Ulrich.
"You're the best fighter I know." said Jeremie, "Will you help?"
"Can you bring me back here?" asked Ulrich.
"I'm pretty sure I can." said Jeremie, "Worst that happens is you just run out of lifepoints."
"Fine, I'll help." said Ulrich.
"Take the elevator down to the Scanners." said Jeremie, "I load the program."
A/N: Next time, Ulrich's first trip to Lyoko.
