i hope you like it took me while to write :D

"Alright," agreed Aelita taking small steps to the tower…

Ulrich looked up at Aelita, but something was wrong. His eyes—instead of being his normal brown they were gold and glowing.

"Wha- what's w-wrong with m-me?" he asked.

"Shhhh" said Aelita comfortingly, "just get in the tower I'll explain then."

Ulrich nodded and closed his eyes, but kept walking. A foot away from the tower Ulrich's steps faltered and he dropped to his knees.

"Ulrich come on, were almost there, just hold on!" the princess pulled the older boy to the tower and through the 'door'.

When inside he moaned and looked up at her, "What's going on?!" he cried fear and pain apparent on his face.

"I have to de-activate the tower then Jerimie will explain," Aelita ran over the edge and up to the next level.

She placed her hand on the halo in front of her, Code LyokoAelita. When she came back down Ulrich was lying on the ground, groaning pitifully.

"Ulrich, Ulrich!" cried Aelita, kneeling next to his quivering body and shaking his shoulder.

"Uhnnn, Aelita can you explain now?"

"I think I can explain," said Jerimie's voice. Ulrich opened his eyes. "That acute bovine pulmonary edema you phased through, it put something unfamiliar in you-"

"Speak English!" protested Ulrich his voice strained.

"The mist, it messed with your programming" explained Alieta.

Ulrich nodded. "I'll try to fix it give me a second…" said Jerimie's voice. For a second there was silence, and then Ulrich sat up shaking his head.

"I am getting really sick of asking this, but, what happened?" said Ulrich sighing with exasperation.

"Jerimie, he typed in something that helped you," said Aelita

"Thanks Jerimie," said Ulrich standing and stretching, there were a few winces but after a moment he was just fine. But Jerimie still hadn't answered. "Jerimie?" asked Ulrich.

Still no answer. "Jerimie what's going on?" asked Aelita.

"There… something…wrong… programming… glitch," Jerimie's voice was scratchy as if coming from a bad radio. "Going… try… fix…"

"We should get out there and try to help," said Ulrich, always the first to volunteer to help.

Nodding Aelita and Ulrich ran to the wall, but on contact instead of letting them through it threw them back.

"What—what was that?" asked Ulrich.

"I'm not sure. Jerimie?" said Aelita.

"Just… minute."

"Don't worry princess we'll just wait. Yumi an odd can take care of themselves" said Ulrich trying to reassure her even though he was worried himself. The pink haired girl nodded and sat down gesturing for the older boy to join her.

Suddenly Ulrich bent over groaning.

"Ulrich, are you okay?" Aelita asked, sitting in the middle of the floor.

"I-I'm fine," he mumbled, looking away.

Aelita frowned and turned his head towards her. "You are not fine. What happened back there was out of the ordinary. And now it's happening again. I think you know what's wrong."

"I don't know! Seriously!" He then bent over in pain and fell to his knees.

Aelita gasped. "Ulrich!"

He kept groaning in pain, holding his stomach. "I don't...feel too good," he mumbled between his pants for breath.

"Hang on! We have to wait for Jerimie!" She stood up and tapped on the screen in front of her. "Jerimie! Ulrich's ill again Lyoko! How can this be possible?"

Jeremy's voice boomed through the tower, loud and clear. "I'm not sure, Aelita. I fixed the bug in the computer just as he seemed to get sick"

"Okay," Aelita said. She turned off the screen, turned back around to see something very strange happening gasping she said "Ulrich! You're glowing!"

"Now is not...the time for...jokes, Aelita," he gasped for breath. The glowing aura around him became brighter.

"No, really! You're glowing!"

Ulrich paused and looked at himself. He gasped. "Well, this wasn't what I expected." He choked.

His eyes were again glowing gold.
