When in doubt, call for help

I own nothing except 4 oc's, everything else belongs to moonscoop

The group were walking out of the factory, trying to figure out how to now cover for Odd's disappearance.

"How are we going to cover up Odd being missing? Make another clone?" Jeremy pondered

"Why don't we just go into sector 5 and look through Franz Hoppers data. Maybe theirs something in there that could help us." Aelita suggested

"Xana would most likely see that coming." Jeremy replied

"Worth a shot. What other options do we have?" Yumi said

"Wait. Right now?" Aelita asked

"Tomorrow's that weekend. Lets do it now." Ulrich said

"Here we go again." Jeremy mumbled

They got to the scanners, and jeremy began to get them in.

"Transfer Ulrich, Transfer Yumi, Transfer Aelita. Scanning, Virtulization." Jeremy said and pressed the button.

Sector 5

"Your surprised William?" Odd asked

"ERR." William muttered

The manta looked at the two, from William to Odd, then back to William, then got a order from Xana. In the next instant, the manta shot William.

"Sorry pal, but master Xana is putting me in charge. I hope you don't mind." Odd chuckled, then hopped on the manta, and flew away, with William dazed and confused.

Inside Yumi, Aelita and Ulrich had just arrived, and quickly ran for the elevator. They then ran towards the interface panel with Ulrich in the lead. They got there, and to there surprise almost got hit by a laser arrow. Standing between them and the panel was Odd, with 3 mantas backing him up.

"Miss me already?" Odd asked

"Odd? How can you talk?" Yumi asked

"Xana gave me new life. He recreated my personality, and free mind so I could be more use to him than William." Odd replied

"Odd, don't make us hurt you." Ulrich warned

"Hurt me? I think you got it backwards, you yourselves should worry about getting hurt." Odd laughed

"Odd, you can beat me at anything, Xana knows this." Ulrich replied

"Lets see you try and hit me then." He taunted, and Ulrich ran towards him

Odd got on all fours, then slid under him, and put three arrows into Ulrichs back. Like a rock, he dropped to the floor in pain.

"I know all your moves and tactics. As for me, I've gotten stronger." Odd smirked

"Ulrich, watch yourself. You just got 60 points of damage from those arrows. Xana must have upgraded his arrows." Jeremy said

"A little too late." Ulrich replied

"Aelita, go for the panel, we will cover you." Yumi said

"I don't think so!" Odd replied as he sent arrows down on them, and Aelita panicked and shot a energy field at him

Quickly, Odd got up his shield, but the force was too great and sent him off the ledge. Aelita gasped at what happened, but she ran towards the panel anyways. As soon as she started looking through the data, 4 mantas appeared with William on his black manta. All five mantas fired lasers at the group, and Yumi and Ulrich got on there vehicles to fight them.

"Jeremy, I found something." Aelita said

"I got it. It seems like the blueprints on how to make a lyoko body. With this, we can give them temporary specter body's." Jeremy said

"Surprise!" A familiar voice yelled as Aelita was tackled to the ground by a familiar voice

Aelita looked up to see Odd holding her down and asked, "Did you miss me Princess?"

"Odd, why are you doing this? Were trying to help you." Aelita replied

"Help me? If you wanted to help me, then why didn't you do it when I was being electrocuted!" Odd screamed in her ear

"I didn't know what to do?" Aelita said saddened

"Well I guess you should have thought a little harder. But no matter, I got a friend that wants to meet you." Odd whispered in her ear as he forced her back into Carthage

Real word

"Oh no, Aelita. If I hurry and make one of the orbs into a specter, I can save her." Jeremy said and was typing like made to try and finish one, and the red one then flashed with the green exclamation symbol, and Jeremy cheered, "Yes! Virtulization!"

Carthage arena

The transport orb came down, and out came a Odd clone, but a few differences. The stripe on his face was red, as the little spot on his hair. Instead of purple as the main color, a bright red was present. Finally on his arms were flame decals.

"Specter! Can you hear me?" Jeremy yelled

"Oh my god the ceiling is talking!" It yelled back with Odds voice, except a little more hyper

"Calm down, I'm not the ceiling." Jeremy replied

"I didn't mean to sleep on the way here, I'm sorry!" He replied, still scared

"Listen, I need you to do something for me." Jeremy asked

"What?" Odd clone asked

"I need you to save someone I know." Jeremy replied

"And whats in it for me?" the Odd clone asked

"Uhh..."

"Just kidding, I'll do it talking voice in the sky." Odd clone replied, and ran out of the room

He got to the elevator, and jump down on it, but instead landed face first on the elevator. Once the elevator got to the path, he got up, and saw Odd with Aelita, pushing her towards the Scyphozoa.

"Halt evil fiend!" the clone yelled

"What the? Okay Jeremy, you've done some stupid stuff, but this is really pushing it." Odd replied

"Don't make me hurt you." the clone warned

"Hurt me? Bring it." Odd taunted

The clone held his arm up like Odd would to fire a laser arrow. Instead of a arrow, a stream of flame came out like a flamethrower.

"Awesome! Time to turn up the heat!" The clone yelled

"I don't make that horrible of jokes! Take this!" Odd yelled as there brawl began

The clone quickly put the Scyphozoa on fire and it retreated, and he tried to get him to release Aelita. Using her as a shield, Odd got two shots into his clone before he ran for the panel, leaving Aelita.

"Voice in the sky! Is this the girl you wanted me to save?" The clone asked

"Yes she is. Now go outside." Jeremy replied

"Yes sir!" He replied, running out

"Voice in the sky?" Aelita asked with a chuckle

"It works." Jeremy replied and got to work getting the overboard near them

He virtulized the overboard, and they got on, but Aelita was driving. They then took off after Yumi and Ulrich which were being chased by a group of Mantas. Right behind them however was Odd with large black bat wings coming out of his back, and 2 mantas flanking him.

"Oh no! Xana must also have copied your wings Aelita." Jeremy yelled

"Asta la Vista, babies!" Odd yelled and devitalized the overboard with a well aimed arrow

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" the clone yelled as he fell, but landed on a Manta, and dug in his claws as a natural relax, and the Manta was at his win, while Aelita activated her wings

"Princess, your late for your date with the Scyphozoa." Odd called as he flew after her

Ulrich and Yumi were still trying to get rid of William when the four Mantas following him were destroyed. Aelita stormed past them very fast, with Odd right behind her, gaining on her in distance and accuracy.

"Coming through!" Odd clone yelled and kamikaze his manta into Williams, destroying both.

"I got him." Yumi said diving after him, and he grabbed onto the edge

"Your a life saver." He replied while getting on

"Ulrich, go help Aelita." Yumi yelled

"Since Odds gone, I'm doing his work too." Ulrich muttered

Odd still was chasing Aelita around Carthage, each avoiding each others fire, but Aelita stayed one step ahead of Odd because of her experience with flying.

"Sooner or later, I will catch you!" Odd yelled

"At your rate, you couldn't catch a blok." Aelita replied

that very instant, Odd got a Katana thrust right into him and was devirtulized, though he got enough time to swing his head as see Ulrich did it. Jeremy typed in SCIPIO and they all left for the desert sector. Everyone then left the Odd clone in the nearest tower.

Real world

"Please guys, don't leave me here! I'll be your best friend! I'll do anything!" The clone yelled at them through the monitor

"Don't worry, I just have to figure out the visualization code." Jeremy replied

"Maybe some of the stuff he can do is a clue to the code." Yumi suggested

"That's a good idea, but where to start?" Ulrich asked

"Think of what has happened, we were stuck in Carthage, he shoots fire, fought a incredibility dangerous foe, even though it was Odd." Yumi explained

"I got it, the code is the same for the transport orb, SCIPIO." Jeremy said and typed it in, a perfect match

"Good news buddy, your coming to earth." Jeremy replied

"Thank you voice in the sky! You rule!" The clone replied

They all went down to the scanners to see what would come out. The steam cleared and the clone shakily walked out. He was virtually the same as Odd, except for his clothes were bright red. He smiled and then pranced around in joy.

"Now all you need is a name." Ulrich said

"I say we name his Scipio." Aelita replied

"What? That's nuts Aelita. No one would buy that." Jeremy exclaimed

"Very fitting, didn't he burn the real Carthage?" Ulrich asked

"He was partially responsible, but its still not going to work." Jeremy corrected

"Lets ask him. Do you want to be called Scipio?" Yumi asked the Odd clone

"I like it, it has a certain ring to it. Scipio the ladys man. That's perfect. Call me Scipio!" He proudly proclaimed

Scipio walked out with them happy, but blissfully unaware on how he was created, or why. As they went back to the dorms, Odd watched them from the Carthage tower, a grimacing look on his face, and a desire to get revenge, at all costs.
