This is sooooooooo late, but whatever. I don't own Code Lyoko or any characters, cept pretty much all of them here :) ENJOY!
The next day was Sunday, another weekend day which meant I could sleep late without getting in trouble. People in the courtyard seemed to be really exited about something. Was it one of those holiday things Michael had told me about?
"Happy Halloween, Alana!" Michael said, startling me a bit.
"Hm...what's that?" I asked
"A holiday where you dress up and get candy." He cheerfully explained.
"Oh cool! Let's go get it!"
"No, you have to wait until tonight."
"Then we have time, come on!" I started dragging him toward the forest.
"Alana, where are you taking me?"
"The Factory, you promised!" I'd wanted to go back since I got to Earth, see what was left...
"Oh, okay." We ran through the forest to the manhole down into the sewers and toward the factory, or where it had been.
"Do you know where you're going?"
"In theory, yes. I've heard how to get there in stories..."
"What? We'll get lost!"
"No, we won't, look, there's the ladder to the bridge, right there!"
"Sure?"
"I swear, come on!" I climbed up to the bridge...it was gone...not even rubble...
"...Alana?"
"It was downstairs, underground, Lyoko can still be fixed!" I jumped down and went to where the elevator would be, but there was nothing there.
"There's supposed to be an elevator here..."
"Alana, this Factory never had an underground..."
"Yes it did!"
"Maybe the old factory did, one factory couldn't have lasted 300 years or even more. This one had no downstairs."
"...what...so..." I found sheet metal a few meters away..."It's gone...blown up?" I got on my knees and wept for the loss of my home...
"Um...sorry..."
We stayed in the factory till it was dark.
"Alana, people are out trick-or-treating. If you're up to it...I got you a costume..."
"What -sob- is it?"
"Come on, I'll show you."
Now it was time he dragged me back to his dorm. I felt better away from the ruins of my home.
"Okay, close your eyes Alana." I did, he put something on my back and strapped it like a harness. "Okay, open."
I opened my eyes, Michael had moved me over to the mirror and out of my shoulder blades sprouted two pink wings. No, they were strapped on, but still.
"Oh...they're...beautiful! Thank you!" How did he know this is just what I wanted? He blushed a bit.
"Well, you said you missed your wings, so I got you a pair...It was nothing really."
I cut him off with a hug.
"It was everything." (-Throws up a little- Okay, we can go on now)
"Okay, let's go out and get some candy!"
We went outside, all around people were dressed strangely, some had wings and tails and stuff like Lyokons, but just like the wings I was wearing, they weren't real. We went into town, up to peoples houses and said trick-or treat. I asked Michael what that was about, the candy was the treat but what was the trick?
"I'll show ya." I knew that voice, Biff. We turned around to see him throwing raw eggs at the house we'd just left.
"Is that another tradition?" I whispered to Michael
"Uh...sorta, but you aren't supposed to do it."
"Hey an angel and...a streetlight, that's the best you could come up with Mike? Ha you two are pathetic! And don't think I've forgotten what you did girly."
"Leave us alone Biff!" I yelled at him, "I'd be more than happy to deal with you. You aren't half as tough as the bullies back home!"
"Oh, where are they?"
"I don't remember. But you're still going down if you don't leave us alone!"
"I'm soooo scared." He mocked, though there was a hint of fear in his voice.
"Come on Alana, let's go."
"...Fine..." I glared back at him but let it go after we went some distance I asked him.
"Why didn't you let me beat him up? He certainly deserves it the way you described him."
"Fighting is a big deal though, remember what happened the first time? I don't want you to get into trouble." He said, smiling a bit.
We left Biff behind and went around to all the houses gathering candy in bags, some houses had a lot more than others. There was even this house where a guy popped out of nowhere and screamed. My immediate reaction was to knock him to the ground which I quickly apologized for. He said it was fine and gave me a little extra candy. After a while we had to get back to Kadic, the curfew had been made later but we still had to be in our dorms by 10:30.
Then I made the mistake of eating too much candy at once...
"LET'S PLAY WITH DA TARATULAS!" I screamed, bursting through Sasha's door (the girl across the hall).
"WHAT THE- Alana, what are you doing here."
"LOOKOUT THE SCYPHOZOA!" I tried to take off but fell flat on the ground.
"ENERGY FEILD! YES, IT EXPLODED!"
"Alana, I think you need to go to the infirmary..."
"NOOOOOO, STAY AWAY FROM ME BLOK!"
"Come on, let's get you checked on."
"I HAVE TO GET TO SECTOR 5!" And with that I ran out of the hallow ice cave and to the edge of the sector, but lots of monsters surrounded me and one grabbed my arm.
"GET OFFA ME!"
"Alana, it's me!" that was Michael's voice
"RUBBER PIGGIES!" My whole body started to vibrate, I jumped up, and exploded.
I woke up in the infirmary with a throbbing headache. The nurse was taking care of paperwork or something, I couldn't really tell or focus...
"Wh-what happened...my head..."
"You had way too much sugar, it was off the charts. But you're okay now, I'll just keep you on observation for an hour or two and then you can go back to your dorm."
"I did..." then there was a knock on the door and Michael opened it.
"You okay?"
"I think so, but my head...ow..."
"Yeah, you went kind of nuts last night, no more candy before bed, ya hear?" I rolled my eyes
"Yes, mother." we both laughed.
"Was I that bad?" I asked, biting my lip.
"Yeah, you started yelling about monsters and that you had to get to Sector 5..."
"Oh..." my eyes got slightly wider
"Is there something about sector 5?"
"Yeah...it-it's where the Skid garage is. Michael, I have to find them, NOW!"
"-Who?"
"My family and friends, I need to launch a search program, I need to find them!"
"Calm down, you can...but for now rest." he put a hand on my shoulder, trying to get me to calm down.
"Just get me a laptop so I can start working on it."
"Okay." he got me a laptop, and I started to work, I WILL FIND THEM! I swear it.
So, review :)
