Chapter 9

The Chips are down

Yumi just told all about her parents problem. Jeremy then said "that's a tough break."

Then "Odd said " Your gotta be kidding."

Then Yumi said "unfortunately I'm not."

Then Ulrich came up to us "hello what's going on here."

Then Aelita said "I wish I could do something Yumi."

Then I said "we all do."

Then Yumi said "that's really nice of you."

Then the bell rang and Ulrich said "will someone tell me what's going on."

Then Jeremy said "look we'll talk about it after class." Then we all went to class.

Yumi and I are in class and the teacher said "In Moby Dick, Melville uses literary technique during the novel's speaking."

Then I see Yumi looking at Ulrich through the window. Then Yumi said "excuse me mam."

Then the teacher said "yes Yumi."

Then Yumi said "may I please go to the infirmary."

It's late at night I'm with Odd, Jeremy, and Aelita. Then Odd said "he's not in are room. I don't know where he is."

Then Aelita said "I got a feeling that Ulrich is taking this situation even harder than we are."

Then Odd said "you can say that again. For Ulrich losing Yumi is like. Well imagine how you feel if Jeremy had to leave."

Then Aelita said "why do you say that" as she started to blush."

Then Odd said "because I love making you blush."

CLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCL

Were back outside with Yumi and Aelita said "wait what just happened. Why did we return to the past." Then Jeremy took out his laptop and he got on it.

Then Yumi said "could've XANA taking control of jumping back in time function. He's done it before."

Then I said "It's not him."

Then Jeremy said "no way Theron and I made a special program so he couldn't."

Then I said "yep" popping the p.

Then Jeremy said "the super scan doesn't show and activated towers. This is really weird. I will go to the factory after class and check it out."

CLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCLCL

We're outside waiting for Ulrich and as Ulrich came up to us he said "hi."

Then Jeremy said "hi Ulrich you know I'm really impressed with your computer skills."

Then Ulrich said "who me, you are."

Then Jeremy said "well you did enter the code for returning to the past into the computer without making a single mistake. Well done."

Then Ulrich said "what are you talking about."

Then Yumi said "don't waste your breath. We know it was you that set off the return to the past."

Then Odd said "you broke rule number one, come on Ulrich I can't believe it."

Then Ulrich said "I only did it for Yumi. So you could stay."

Then Yumi said "I didn't ask for your help."

Then Jeremy said "did you realize what you've done Ulrich."

Then I said "did you forget that going back in time makes XANA stronger."

Then Odd said "why didn't you talk to us first huh. Why did you have to go sneaking around."

Then Ulrich said "I'm sorry."

Then Jeremy said "It's to late for sorry. You betrayed our trust."

Then Yumi said "here you can take back your dum ticket. My parents think you should keep the money" dropping the ticket and walked away.

Then Jeremy said "as off now until you here any wise your out of the group." Then Jeremy, Odd, and I walked away.

Then Yumi, Odd, Aelita, and I are in the scanner room. Jeremy is heard saying "transfer Aelita" then Aelita stepped into a scanner. Then Jeremy said "transfer yumi" and she stepped into a scanner. Then Jeremy said "transfer Theron." Then I stepped into a scanner and the doors close and the virtualization processes began then there was a big gust of wind that signaled the end of the process.

We were then virtualized onto the desert sector. Then Jeremy said "here come your vehicles."

Then the Overwing, Overboard, and Overglider got materialized.

Then Odd then said "Aelita will you do the honor on coming onboard my humble board."

Then as we got on a vehicles Jeremy said "the activated tower is two plateaus north."

Then Yumi said "Okay let's go."

Then we flew off towards the tower. Jeremy then said "no monsters on the horizon at the moment."

Then Yumi said "It's not monsters I'm worried about. It's XANA attacking on earth. We still don't know what he's got in store for us this time."

Then Jeremy said "well I rather we deactivate the tower before we find out."

As we were flying Aelita spotted a Krab. Yumi then said "our my eyes playing tricks on me or is there at least 20 of them."

Then I said "Your not the only one that sees the sea of Krabs Yumi."

Then Aelita said "there are no mirages on Lyoko."

Then Yumi said "that's what I was afraid of."

Then Odd said "by the way thanks for warning us Jeremy. Jeremy." Then we heard a echoed laugh.

Then Yumi said "Jeremy was that you. Answer me will you"

Then Odd said "that isn't Jeremy. I'd recognize that laugh anywhere. It's Nicholas."

Then Yumi said "Nicholas are you sure."

Then Odd said "nobody else has a laugh that dumb, no one in the whole universe."

Then Aelita said "watch out the Krabs."

We better get out of here fast."

Then we fly away from the Krabs and dodge their lasers. Yumi then gets hit and falls of the Overwing. Odd then said "Yumi" and we turned around and went to Yumi.

Then we landed and Odd said "Yumi are you okay."

Then Yumi said "I don't understand why does it hurt so much. Shouldn't I just loose some life points."

Then Odd said "I thinking something's wrong at the factory."

Then I said "I think I know I think the scanners off line meaning all shots are fatal."

Then Aelita said "Odd, Theron the Krabs we're going to have to take cover." Yumi laying on the Overboard and Odd, Aelita, and I are walking.

Odd said "I'll go and check it out. We better move other wise we" then he got shot twice and fell. Then Odd said "wow it really does hurt."

Then I said "It's now me, duplicate." My clone appeared and we climbed the mound and the Krabs got my clone and I got one Krab and got shot by the others and I fell and said "that hurt."

Then Aelita said "It's my turn." Then Aelita used her creativity to create a sand wall. Then Aelita said "it won't take them long to find away around."

Then we heard Ulrich say "Odd, Yumi, Theron, Aelita can you hear me. Answer me will ya."

Then Yumi said "Ulrich is that you."

Then Ulrich said "uh huh, great your alive."

Then Odd said "but not in great shape."

Then Aelita said "what about Jeremy."

Then Ulrich said "he's also in bad shape. I don't get it there's nothing on the screen."

Then I said "It's because Xanafied Nicholas put the scanners offline. Wake Jeremy up or we'll die here.

Then Yumi said "that's why XANA's monsters hurt us for real." Then we heard something and Odd said "what's that noise."

Then we went to take a look. Then Aelita said "It's just what I was afraid of the Krabs have broken through the sand wall."

Then Odd said "okay this is no time to drag your feet."

Then the four of us started running and dodging lasers. Yumi then got hit. Then Odd said "Yumi no." Then Yumi landed on her hands and flipped. Then Odd said "yeah we're invincible again."

Then Jeremy said "I'm sending you Ulrich."

Then Aelita said "Jeremy."

Then we dodge lasers and Odd gets a Krab. I then use a foundation to jump off of and in mid air I said "duplicate."

Then my clone and I each destroy one Krab and I then said "fusion" bringing my clone back into me."

Then Ulrich said "high guys didn't miss me did ya."

Then Yumi said "just a little."

Then Odd said "those guys are won't miss us if we stick around." Then Jeremy said "Your vehicles are on the way. They could come in handy."

Then our vehicles got materialized and Odd said "great, now all that we have to do is cross that line of monsters you, Yumi, and Theron will go over the top."

Then Yumi said "and what about you."

Then Odd said "I'll do what I do best. Chef's surprise" and got on to his Overboard. Then Aelita joined him. Then Odd went under the Krabs.

Then Ulrich said "he's really lost it this time."

Then Yumi said "no more than you have. Come on let's go." Then we flew up above the Krabs. I dropped down on one and stabbed it with my staff and jumped to the next one and I got five Krabs and I grabbed a hold of the Overglider. Ulrich got a couple, and so did Yumi. Then Odd said "oh no. Another row of those guys." Then Ulrich destroyed one making a path. Odd drove to the tower. Then Ulrich said "I think we done it."

Then Jeremy said "Ulrich your the greatest."

Then Odd said "hey what about me don't I get any credit."

Then Aelita walks into the tower." Then Aelita deactivated the tower. Then we bring Nicholas to the infirmary. Jim said "this is the way he was when you found him."

Then Jeremy said "yeah in the middle of the campus."

Then the nurse said "that's very strange he must of fainted. Nothing serious any case."

Then we walked out of the infirmary and on to the school grounds and Yumi said "I know you did it for me Ulrich."

Then Ulrich said "but I should've asked you first right. I'm sorry."

Then Aelita said "so are you back in the group."

Then Ulrich said "looks like it."

Then Odd said "what did you do with that lotto ticket."

Then Ulrich said "I thought about it and decided to give it to an association that builds wells in Africa."

Then Yumi said "really that's a great idea." Then Yumi's phone rang and she answered. Yumi then said "my father's found work with takahashi."

Then Ulrich said "takahashi, you mean in Japan."

Then Yumi said "no silly right here." We all said "yeah" and laughed at Ulrich.
