"The tower is still lock." Aelita said
"And Roman is in there without back up." Ulrich said slicing at the entrance
"Hey, look at that."Yumi said pointing at the tower change colors from red to white
"He did it." Jeremy said a little surprised
Everybody backed up from the entrance and stared at the light white color hover over the once evil tower.
"I'm launching the return to the pass program.' Jeremy said
"Yeah, yeah, yeah...Wait no not yet!" Ulrich said
'What's the matter?" Yumi asked
"We have to go get William and we don't have a clue on how this will effect Roman." Ulrich said
"Yeah, didn't Roman say he shouldn't be outside while that program ran?" Yumi said
"I think it's alright because he is somewhere safe." Jeremy said
"And that would be..?" Aelita asked.
"He's in the Carthage sector." Jeremy said
"How do you know?" Yumi questioned
"A little digital birdy told me." He answered looking at a picture of Roman's gloves
"Ok, than let's go." Ulrich started
"No, you guys have stayed here long enough people might get specious." Jeremy said.
"Do you really think it's safe?" Aelita asked
"I believe so, somebody needs to get William while I devirtualized Aelita. " Jeremy said typing up the program..
"I'll go get him." Ulrich said getting on his hoverbike.
"Be careful Ulrich. " Yumi said before getting devirtualized after Aelita
"Thanks." Ulrich said before riding off into the hideout
"I have to get out of here." William mumbled to himself as he started to crawl out of bed.
As William continued to move to the door, the pain in his side grew more and more. When he finally made it to the exist he froze leaning against wall gasping for air. A Tarantula walked over beside William and keeled down.
"Are you going to help me out of here?" William asked.
The Tarantula lightly nodded, and William climbed on. The Tarantula started walking out with William blinking lightly with Xana's symbol slowly forming on it's head.
A moment later...
"Yo, William I'm here to get you!" Ulrich yelled as his voice echoed through out the cave
After a few minutes, Ulrich looked all over the cave for any clues of where William could be until he came across a light blood trail leading outside. A Hornet flew over and landed on Ulrich's shoulder buzzing lightly as if it was trying to tell him something.
"Do you know where William is at?" Ulrich asked
The Hornet buzzed a little louder as if it was replying.
"Can you help me find him?" Ulrich asked.
The Hornet flew off Ulrich's shoulder and landed on the handlebars of his bike. Ulrich smiled lightly and hop on his bike letting the Hornet lead the way.
"Ulrich what's the hold up?" Jeremy asked
"William wasn't there he must have wondered off." Ulrich said
Jeremy sighed taking off his glasses and trying to keep claim.
"Ok ok ok, I'll try to track him for you. " Jeremy said putting on his glasses and typing on the key bored
"No need a Hornet is actually leading me to him" Ulrich said
"Excuse me?" Jeremy said
"Yeah, a Hornet I wouldn't believe it myself if I wasn't here." Ulrich said
"Are you sure you don't want me to track him, remember the creatures here can always get possessed at any giving moment." Jeremy said
The Hornet flew around in a playful like motion, lightly bouncing around, and spinning in circles like a little child without a care or worry in the world.
"Yeah, Jeremy I'm sure." Ulrich said smiling following the Hornet.
Meanwhile on the other side of Lyoko...
"Thanks for the ride." William mumbled
The Tarantula kept walking silently towards another tower while William dozed off on its' back. A few minutes later, Ulrich finally caught up to the mysterious tower once again.
"What's going on?" Ulrich asked the Hornet
The Hornet flew inside and came back out with three more Hornets and William. The Tarantula came out with Xana's symbol on it growling with hatred as it sat down and had taken aim at the Hornets shooting them down one by one. Just before William was about to slam into the ground, Ulrich had rode up and caught him while shooting his grappling hook at the Tarantula. The grappling hook hit the Tarantula directly at the mark and the Tarantula had exploded as Ulrich rode off.
"Jeremy now would be a great time to launch that program!" Ulrich yelled glancing back at the tower as Blocks and kankrelats started marching out.
Jeremy quickly typed up the program,'Return to the pass now." He commanded as time went backwards
"William...William?" Yumi said calmly
William moaned and groaned barely waking up from his sleep,"Wh-...huh?" he sighed finally opening his eyes looking at Yumi in front of him, Ulrich leaning against the wall, Odd sitting on the edge of the couch, Jeremy sitting in a chair pulled up near his side, and Aelita coming from the back with a tray of food and cups of water.
"Where am I?" William asked trying to sit up groaning lightly in pain holding his side.
"You should stay down." Yumi said laying him back down
"You're at Aelita's house." Odd answered taking a glass of water and a hand full of chips from the tray.
"How did I get here?" He asked
"Ulrich brought you here." Yumi said glancing over at him
"And it wasn't a walk in the park either, you can believe that." Ulrich added lightly smiling.
"I guess I owe you?" William asked
"Oh most definitely, Dunbar." Ulrich answered
"Yes sir Couch Morales." William said
Everybody laughed and joked around for hours, without worries without troubles, the team was finally back together.
"It's good to have you back." Odd said
"It's great to be back." William replied.
"So, did you learn anything about Aiden?" Aelita asked
"Aiden...so, that's who he was before he fell in the digital sea." William said
