ZOMG IT'S PART TWO! The epic conclusion to the zombie arc! Enjoy it! Four more chapters until the epic season 2 finale!
"OK guys I'm um… I'm not too experienced with this kind of thing… So I'm sorry for anything that may happen under my supervision." Tails said nervously over the microphone.
Ulrich and Yumi looked at each other. "Besides Aelita… we're the only ones left throughout the whole school…" Yumi looked away. "Jeremy, Odd… Everyone's been XANAfied."
Ulrich and Aelita looked over the desert area. "Tails?" Aelita began.
Tails quickly adjusted the microphone to fit his head. "Yeah?"
Aelita began to mosey around the desert section, kicking around a few pebbles and taking a good look around. "It seems a little… barren around here…" Her eyes scanned the near activated tower and around the area. "Think XANA's too busy trying to zombify everyone to notice we made it on lyoko?"
Suddenly, a missile flew directly beside her face and exploded on the ground near her. "WAAGH!" She shouted jumping backwards. Yumi and Ulrich quickly turned to the direction it was fired from.
A metallic laugh was heard. "I wouldn't count on it…" Metal sonic smirked as his arm went from missile form to hand form. "I, as well as my back up, came to deal with you pests…" Behind him stepped a Krab and two Bloks.
"Be careful you guys!" Tails said nervously "I wish I could do something to help them… but I never asked Jeremy how he made those vehicles appear…" Tails sighed he continued to watch the screen for any updates that the group may need.
Ulrich took a step back and growled. "Yumi, you and Aelita do what you can to get rid of the Krab and Bloks…" Ulrich grabbed his sword and suddenly split it in two. "I'm not going to back down to you…" He got into a stance and was readying himself. "Bring it on Metal."
Yumi nodded at Ulrich and watched as the Bloks and Krab stood in front of her. She swung out her fans and readied them in her hands. "Aelita, make a run for the tower… Ulrich and I will cover you here." She smirked. "If you don't get to the tower then we're all doomed anyway." Aelita nodded and began making her way to the tower. "Ready Ulrich?" Yumi looked back at Ulrich with a sweet smile on her face.
Ulrich nodded. "As ready as I'll ever be." He tensed up.
Metal laughed. "Oohh, this will be FUN." His arms transformed into pointed laser swords. "Let's see what you've got."
Sonic's fists were clenched as he stood at the entrance of the factory. His eyes were squinted as he watched for the soon to be approaching zombie horde. He watched the gray sky hovering over the town and the factory. He sighed as he couldn't see the moon or sun. "I can't believe I let her get taken just like that…" The hero groaned. "I wonder if these zombies are anything like those in the movies…" He pondered for a moment. "If they are, they must be attracted to meat." Sonic brought out a long salami. "Good thing I grabbed this from the cafeteria." He laughed for a moment. "Heh… it's got a funny name…" he snickered, but it soon died down as he looked around. "It's not as funny when there's no one to share it with…" He frowned.
Sonic's ear perked for a moment, it then twitched twice as he looked out in the horizon. "Well… Looks like the party's arrived…" He growled for a moment and stuffed the salami into his backpack. "All I've got to do is distract them long enough for the tower to be deactivated… Heh… I'm the fastest thing alive! How hard can that be?" He smirked. He got into a fighting stance and readied himself for the slowly approaching army. "Come and get me…"
"HYAAAH!" Ulrich shouted as he dashed towards metal. He jumped into the air and began to spin with the blades above his head, creating his own kind of spindash.
Metal quickly dodged Ulrich's attack, took a step on the ground and launched a kick into Ulrich.
"GAACK!" Ulrich shouted and rolled onto the ground. He stopped, regained his balance and took stance once more.
"Ulrich, you lost five of your health points!" Tails shouted.
"You mean life points?"
"U-Um… yeah!" Tails said nervously.
"RRAGGHR!" Metal gave Ulrich little time to as he flew towards him at a fast speed and launched his sword at Ulrich's face.
Ulrich crossed his swords together and blocked the powerful slice. "Hugh..." he groaned. They struggled for a moment but Ulrich managed to get the upper hand. He twisted to his right and kicked metal sonic in the head. He then ran towards the hurt metal. "Triplicate!" Ulrich split into three separate beings and surrounded metal. "Sword barrage!"
Metal, using his robotic reflexes and fast speed gave him sort of an edge against Ulrich's attack, but not by much. Ulrich's attacks were landing, strike after strike. Metal was able to dodge most before he became fed up. "RAAAGHH!" He blasted two of Ulrich's clones with lasers that came from his hands he then took flight and grabbed the real one.
"He-Hey! Lemme go!" Ulrich struggled to free himself from metal's grasp but to no avail.
Metal stopped in mid-air and flew straight up. "Time for a pile-driver…" He smirked as he slowed his ascension and began his descent. They were flying down at a speed unthinkable in the lyokoverse. "Brace for Impact kid!" Metal let go and quickly launched a kick to his abdominal.
Ulrich screamed he burst through the tough desert sector earth and smashed into a lower platform. For a moment, he just lied there, trying to concentrate. Ulrich groaned. "U-Uuhgg…" He rolled over and struggled to regain his composure. "T-Tails… H-How much?" was all he could manage at the moment.
Tails looked over the screen. "It looks like you lost 25…. 20 for the crash and 5 for the kick metal gave you before he let you go." He sighed. "I really wish I could help you right now, but it doesn't seem like there's anything I can really do!" Tails groaned.
Ulrich coughed and slowly stood up. He looked over head to see metal smirking at him. "H-How much does he have left?"
Tails looked at metal Sonic's card which was displayed on the screen. "After that sword attack you gave him, he's got 80 points left."
Ulrich sighed. "That's not good… ten more than me." He ran over to a hill to get back onto the platform he was originally fighting on. Ulrich growled. "I can't let him get the best of me…" He readied his swords.
Yumi watched as more monsters began to appear. "Hiiyaa!" She started running forwards. She jumped, tossed both of her fans and hit the eye of XANA on both of the Blok's. She tumbled under the Krab as her fans came back and sliced off its legs. Yumi then began to twirl in place and burst through the top of the Krab. She landed on its head, back flipped off and watched it explode. She smirked and looked ahead; Yum saw that a mega-tank and two hornets were surrounding her. Yumi gasped, "Don't worry Aelita! I'm coming for you!" Yumi dashed off towards Aelita, trying to get there as fast as she could.
Sonic watched as the menacing group came closer and closer. At the front of the group he saw the familiar face of his rival shadow. Sonic chuckled. "Shad's playing for the other team right now… But… I mean besides being a zombie… something's off about'em." Sonic pondered for a moment what it was but ignored it for now.
The horde of zombies coming closer and closer to the blue hero, their white eyes shined without pupils, their faces were gray and ugly and their movements slowed to a slow walk. Sonic was ready. "Time to make way for SONIC speed!" He jumped up into the air, revving up his legs and burst off straight towards the horde. He came closer and closer to them and just as one of them leaped forward to him he smirked and jumped over all of them. Landing on a building over top of them.
The entire horde groaned at the hedgehog as they began to look for a way up. "Sorry, did I tease you a little bit?" Sonic laughed; but suddenly he heard a loud thud behind him. He turned his head to see none other than shadow behind him. Sonic frowned and turned to his rival. "I didn't think this is how one of our fights would ever start shads…" Sonic got into a stance. Shadow roared and started running over to sonic with his hands reached out in front of him.
Sonic turned and launched a quick jab to the back of shadow's head. The jab connected and shadow tumbled over himself. He swung his head around and groaned. Sonic took a step back and readied for another lunge. "Even for shadow being a zombie, this isn't how he fights… especially since he's under XANA's control…" Sonic took another step back and growled. "Let's see if you can keep up with me shadow!" He smirked and rushed past him. He looked back, expecting zombified shadow to be following close behind but was surprised when he saw shadow struggling to try and keep up with him. "OK, what's the deal shads! You should be right by me right now!" Suddenly, it dawned on him. "Wait… XANA must not know how shadow does his attacks! He can't tap into his chaos energy!" Sonic smirked. "Well, that makes this job a whole lot easier." Sonic jumped up and revved up his legs again, he burst with speed off the building and over the giant horde and began to run towards the town.
Ulrich and metal were exchanging blow after blow, sword colliding with sword and kicks smashing against kicks. Ulrich tumbled over onto the ground and struggled to stand up. "I can't believe Sonic had to fight this guy! He's insane!" Ulrich stood his ground and looked over to metal.
Metal had 65 life points while Ulrich had a measly 50 pointes left. Metal began to walk over to Ulrich. "What's wrong? Can't take the POUNDING I'm giving you boy?" He smirked and brought out his laser swords once again. "I must say, you've done well in keeping up with me… but…" he began to chuckle. "I've been going easy on you."
Ulrich took a step back from the statement.
"I've got to admit, you've done a pretty good job at landing a few hits on me."
"I have only ONE chance… a new ability that Jeremy was developing for me. It's not finished, but it SHOULD give me the edge I need on him… the only problem is that it'll take away life points as long as I'm using it, so I've only got ONE shot at this." Ulrich took a step back and clenched his swords.
Metal began to laugh. "Well boy, it's time I end this…" He raised his sword up high. "HYYAAH!"
Ulrich's eyes flashed, "Hyper sprint!" Ulrich suddenly burst with speed and launched a powerful strike onto metal sonic.
"GAAGH!" He turned around as metal began to watch Ulrich move. The sudden strike caused his hearing to be impaired for a moment, but he was able to hear part of Ulrich's next move "—plicate!" He growled. "You got ONE lucky shot in punk! This sword, barrage trick WON'T work twice!" A multiple of Ulrich's were dashing around Metal, each strike sending five points of damage to the metallic powerhouse. "RAARGGH!" He blasted one, it disappeared. He turned around, "AAAGGRRHH!" He sliced another in half and saw another Ulrich running towards him. "heh… gotcha!" He fired a powerful beam of energy that destroyed the Ulrich. "hmph…" Metal laughed. "That takes care of that. Now to deal with his friend."
Suddenly, the metallic monster was silenced as a sword was shoved through his chest. "GUUACK…"
Behind him was the slowly devirtualizing Ulrich. "It's called quadtruplicate… both hyper sprint and that move take away life points… but getting rid of you was worth it… you shouldn't get so confident metal… it always leads to peoples downfalls…" Ulrich smirked.
"GACKK… Y-YOU… WORM! NNNNNOOOOOooooooo….." Metal soon devirtualized along with Ulrich.
"Ulrich!" Tails shouted. Tails quickly turned around as the elevator doors opened. Ulrich came stumbling out of it.
"H-Hey tails…" Ulrich stumbled over to tails and leaned on the chair. "I got rid of metal for ya…" he chuckled. "How's Yumi holding up?" He looked at the screen as tails began to type at the keyboard.
Tails leaned in close to the screen to look at Yumi's progress. "It looks like she's having a little trouble; she's down to sixty life points!
Yumi and Aelita were back to back, surrounded by hornets and Bloks. "Yumi… What do we do?" Aelita whispered in a shaky voice.
Yumi looked for an opening as the monsters began to charge their lasers. She looked up above her and noticed the small hole that the hornets had left open. She looked over to Aelita. "Aelita… Hold on tight!" Aelita looked at her but nodded. She jumped on her back as Yumi looked up into the sky. "HYYYAAAAAH!" She brought out her fans and instead of throwing them she used them to help her push herself up high into the air. "Go Aelita!" Yumi spun like a top in the air as they began to descend. "YAAH!" She tossed Aelita with all her might.
Aelita screamed and tumbled onto the ground, she looked back at Yumi. "Yumi!"
"Just go!" She shouted, she launched her fans as the monsters fired onto her and devirtualized her. The fans hit three hornets and two bloks, but there were still plenty to chase Aelita.
"Yumi!" Ulrich shouted, "Oh no… Aelita's all alone!"
Sonic began to pant; he had been running for what seemed like hours. He looked around for a place to hide from the zombie horde. He found an alley way and leaned up against the wall. "uugh… Dead end… that's…. *pant*…not good…" He sighed as he turned around. "Oh… Fudge." He took a step back as the zombies began to get closer to him. He looked up at the tall buildings. "I… can't make it up these walls…" He panted and bumped against the end of the alley.
The elevator doors opened with a loud hiss as Yumi slowly walked over to the group. "It was the only way I could get her out of there…" She sighed. She facepalmed as she felt bad of her decision. "I didn't see any other way…"
Aelita began to run as fast as she could, she looked back at the monster as they chased her with fast speeds. She did her best to dodge the lasers raining down onto her. She looked ahead and saw that she was nearing the tower. "I'm almost there!" She shouted.
The zombies began to get closer and closer as sonic was pressed up against the wall. He looked left and right as he saw some familiar faces and some new ones as well. He saw Amy, who stepped out of the crowded zombies and began to walk over to sonic. "Oh no…" He frowned sadly.
Aelita ran as fast as she could, she dived into the turret as the monsters all fired at once. She tumbled onto the white rings as she smiled. "Great!" She smiled
"YAGGH! Amy! C'mon, snap out of it it's me!" Sonic waved his hands out in front.
"Ssssoooonnniiiiiiicccc…." She moaned with an evil smile on her face.
Sonic gulped, "Not exactly the response I was expecting…" He shook as Amy and the horde neared him. "C'mon Amy! D-Don't bite me!" Sonic began to reach into his backpack.
Aelita began to float and flip up onto the console, those white rings also lit up.
"S-Stay away Amy!" Sonic held his hand out.
Amy's mouth was watering, she came close and lunged.
Sonic grunted. "If you wanna eat something, EAT MY SALAMI!" He stuffed the long salami into her mouth as she bit down hard; sinking her teeth into the salami, for the moment there was a pause.
The horde looked at each other and then to sonic. "eeh..heh…"
Aelita placed her hand onto the console; her name came up onto the screen.
AELITA.
Amy growled and spit the Salami out of her mouth, she roared and jumped onto sonic. "YAAGH! AMY GET OFF'A ME!" He shouted.
C.O.D.E
Amy grabbed sonic's arm and opened her mouth up wide. "Amy stop!" He shouted.
L.Y.O.K.O.
Suddenly, right before Amy took a bite out of sonic, the whole group suddenly flashed back to normal. Most of them fainted while Amy looked at sonic. "Um… shonec?" She said muffled. "Wash my mouf doin wiff yer arm?"
Sonic sighed. "Don't worry about it Amy…" He looked at her and smiled. "I'm just glad you're alright." He hugged her with a smile as she hugged back.
"Tails, the tower was deactivated!" Aelita said with a smile. "You better activate a return to the past!" She smiled.
Tails sighed and slumped into the chair. "Shoo… well, at least there's SOMETHING I can do." He laughed, as did Yumi and Ulrich. Tails began to type in the code for return to the past. "Ahem…" Tails began. "Return to the past, NOW!" Tails pressed the enter key as a white bubble consumed the area as time went backwards and back to sonic's time in class…
Sonic was slumped into his chair, snoring away as class went by, I mean, it's not like he REALLY needed to pay attention right? Well, the thought about it for a moment. He yawned and leaned up, looking at the board as the teacher turned around.
"Scion, nice to see you actually paying attention for once!" She smiled.
Sonic smiled and gave her a thumbs up. "I'll make sure that's a regular thing Mrs. Hertz!" He sat in his seat and looked over to Jeremy he gave him a smile.
