Takes place after Season 4…

Willem's POV:

"Thanks for meeting with me, Mr. Delmas." I said as I entered his office. "Especially this early…"

"Not a problem, Mr. Dunbar." he said. "Though I must admit, I wish it were under better circumstances." We each sat down in our respective spots. "Are you sure you want to leave?"

"Yes, sir." I said. I had been up almost all night, trying to figure out a reason to stay…but there weren't any. Not any more…

"Well, Conley High is a wonderful school." he said. "Many of their students get accepted into major universities. It'll be a good opportunity for you."

"I know, sir. My parents are very excited." I said. Actually, my parents hadn't been very happy about the news, but I had managed to convince them. "Especially since it means I can move back home…"

"Yes, well…Your bizarre behavior earlier this term had been a concern for many of us…but I'm glad to see your feeling better?"

"Yeh, a lot better." I said. I still couldn't believe Jeremy had made my clone so incredibly dumb. I mean, of all the petty ways to get revenge…

"Well, that's good." He slid a few of the papers from his desk into a folder. "Here's your transcript & everything else you need to transfer to your new school." he said, handing it to me. "It's been a pleasure having you here, Mr. Dunbar, & I wish you well in all of your future endeavors."

"Thank you, Mr. Delmas." I said as I stood, grabbing my bags that I had set down next to me. "I…I'm sure I won't forget my time here."

That was exactly the problem.

The courtyard was mostly empty as I walked through it for the last time. Most of the borders were eating breakfast…but that was why I decided to make my exit this early. I didn't know if I'd be able to face the others, not after what I did. To be honest, I wasn't sure if they would be sad to see me go…

"You're sure about this, right?" my dad asked when I got to the car. "It's not too late to change your mind…"

"I'm…I'm fine." I said. To be honest, I didn't really want to leave…but I didn't want to stay here, ether. Maybe if I went somewhere new, I'd be able to start over.

We loaded my stuff into the car, & I turned to look at Kadic Academy one last time. That's when I saw them. They were all standing there, watching me. Even Yumi was there, she must have gotten to school early.

I guess this was my big chance. My chance to go over there & say good bye, to try & apologize one last time for everything that I did…

But that was probably a waste of time.

Without a word, I turned & slid into the passenger seat. Maybe, in time, I'd forget about XANA. I'd forget about Lyoko. Maybe I'd even forget about Yumi…

"You ready, son?" my dad asked as we started the engine. I took a deep breath.

"Yeh, I'm ready."


The end is in sight! Only a few chapters to go! So much for getting this entre thing written in a month, lol…

Normally, I'd start to talk to you guys about a special Q&A chapter that I like to include…but lately, it seems like nobody's really interested in that any more…I'd still like to do something nice for guys though, for putting up with me for so long…Any thoughts?

Please review!
