Ulrich's POV
As soon as she was out of earshot, Jeremy spoke up.
"XANA, huh," he said.
"But why would XANA want to attack Dialla?" Yumi wondered.
"She could've been in the wrong place at the wrong time," I suggested.
"Maybe," Jeremy said. "We'll have to wait and see."
"Right," I agreed and took a sip of my hot chocolate.
Dialla's POV
After talking to my mom for about forty-five minutes, taking a quick nap and then having dinner. It was finally time for bed. For some reason, I was really exhausted. Probably because of all the crap that had happened today. I changed into my nightware, a white tanktop exposing my stomach and black shorts, climbed into my bed and fell asleep. Once I fell asleep, I had a bizarre dream. I was in some kind of world, a desert type area. There was a tower in the distance, as well as four people and strange creatures. There were two boys and two girls. One boy had blonde hair and was dressed in a purple attire. The other boy had spiked brown hair with a yellow headband and was wearing a yellow outfit.
One girl had black hair tied in a bun and had on a black and red kimono, while the other girl had pink hair and was wearing a pink outfit. The brown haired boy, the blond and the black haired girl reminded me of Ulrich, Odd and Yumi, which was weird. The pink haired girl was hiding behind a rock, while the others stood infront and protected her. The creatures were very peculiar. There were two crabs and two cockroach like animals. They both had the same symbol as the one in Sissi's eye from earlier. They would occasionally fire red beams at them. The blonde haired boy occasionally cried out "Laser Arrow." while aiming his fists at the creatures. The brown haired had a sword and would deflect red beams fired at him. The black haired girl had fans which she used to attack and defend herself. I watched in bewilderment at the battle right before my eyes. Suddenly a beam flew passed them and struck me.
Then everything went black and I woke up. I jerked up in my bed, my alarm buzzing. I wiped the sweat from my forehead and looked over at the clock. It was 7:10. Breakfast was in twenty minutes. I drew a deep breath and let it out slowly.
"What was that?" I asked myself. "What a strange dream. For a second there, they looked like..." I shook my head. "Nah. No way."
I quickly changed into some comfortable clothes and put my hair up in a messy bun. Then I walked slowly to the cafeteria, the bizzare dream on my mind.
I didn't even know Odd was talking to me untill his hand moved up and down infront of my face. I blinked and took a step back. Both him and Ulrich stood infront of me, trays of food in their hands. I assumed I almost walked into him.
"Sorry," I said.
"No problem. Now hurry and get some breakfast. We saved you a seat with us." he replied smiling.
I smiled back and quickly got a tray filled with scrambled eggs, bacon, toast and a glass of orange juice then joined my new friends at the table they sat at.
"Morning," Yumi and Jeremy said.
"Morning," I repeated.
"You were kinda spacing out earlier," Ulrich stated. "Everything okay?"
I nodded. "Yeah, just this weird dream I had."
"Care to tell us?" Jeremy asked.
I paused, thinking it over. It was, after all, a dream, I doubt they would judge me because of it.
"Well, in my dream, I was in some weird desert area. There was a tower in the horizon and four people, two boys and two girls, fighting crabs and cockroaches. And for a moment, they looked like Ulrich, Odd and Yumi. The other girl had pink hair. I didn't recognize her. I got shot and then I woke up."
I looked up at them, nervously. Ulrich, Odd and Yumi looked at Jeremy out of the corner of their eye before looking at me.
"What a strange dream," Jeremy said.
"Yeah," I said, "and I have a habit of having strange dreams, but this one was so vivid. Like I could actually touch something."
Before I could wait for their responses, the bell rang for first period.
"Alright! Time for Phys. Ed!" Odd exclaimed. "You have that class too, right, D?"
I nodded. "Looks like we have a lot of classes together."
"Maybe all," he said grinning.
"Maybe," I grinned back.
We put our trays away and I notice my friends hesitate. I turned back to them.
"You coming?" I inquired.
"Uh, yeah," Jeremy said. "Go on with out us, okay?"
"Uh, okay," I said, slightly confused and walked to the track.
Jeremy's POV
"How does she know about Lyoko?" Odd asked.
"Calm down. We're not entirely sure she knows about Lyoko." Ulrich said.
"But she had a dream about it."
"A dream. That doesn't make it real."
"But it's exactly what happened yesterday in Lyoko," I interjected. "You guys were at the desert region, and you fought Kankrelats and Krabes."
"Coincedence?" Yumi suggessted.
"Doubt it," I said, "I'm starting to think that Dialla is somehow connected to Lyoko."
"What do you mean, Einstien?" Odd asked.
"I mean, Dialla may be something XANA wants, if so we have to protect her.... or something XANA fears, in which case we'll have to add her to our group."
"We'll have to?" Yumi asked.
"It'll helps us become closer to destroying XANA and materilizng Aelita." I reminded her. "But still, it's just a theory. Nothing to worry about for now."
"Jeremy's right. Anyway, let's go or we'll be late for class." Ulrich said.
We nodded and Yumi walked off to a different class while Odd, Ulrich and I made our way to the track.
