Chapter 4 Teddygozilla
A.N. – Okay, two things. One: if this is the first time checking in since the last update, I now have a cover image for this story. Check it out if you can. It was professionally drawn, and I think it gives Nadia's Lyoko avatar a more visual look. But for future, just know that Nadia's hair color on Earth is auburn, so on Lyoko it changes. Just a little sidenote. Two: the dance will be at the end of this chapter. I will try to cover all major points that are explained in this chapter, but don't expect anything. Let's begin!
Guest – I not going to say no, so I don't mind, but we would have to talk about it more privately. I got a Reddit and a Discord under this pen name. If you want to take a stab at it, go for it. First you need an account. Go to the sign up tab. After that, I would look up videos on YouTube on how to post a story on fanfiction and how to update a story on fanfiction. Those two will explain it better than me and the explanation would be too long to put here.
Disclaimer – I do not own Code Lyoko, the story idea, or the plot. The plot is owned by the creators, and the idea was submitted by LittleRedRebel. The picture was drawn by Lisa Forbes.
At the gym, two girls named Milly and Tamiya are reporting for the school news with a video camera. Tamiya is holding it upside down. "Okay, are we rolling?" Milly asks.
"Yeah, look we're upside down" Tamiya responds. She fixes it and Milly starts.
"Hello, fellow students of Kadic Junior High. Your ace reporters Milly and Tamiya are here to bring you an exclusive for today's school news and it's really big. Since as I'm pretty sure you already know, tonight is the big night, the night of our annual school prom." The picture suddenly flickers out. "Unfortunately, our cameras weren't authorized to film the site where the festivies will take place, but I can make out from where I'm speaking, the girl who might be crowned our beauty queen tonight, just as she was last year. I mean of course, our principal's daughter, Sissi. Let's see whether she'll answer a few questions. Well Sissi, how about a few words for our TV audience before the big night?"
She looks annoyed. "Sorry munchkins. I only talk to real pro reporters," Sissi replies as Herb covers Tamiya's camera. "I have no time to waste on a couple of nerds."
"But it's for the school news program! What about freedom of the press?"
"Oh Milly, little dipsticks your age don't have any freedom, understand? Anyway, who needs your dumb recording? What do you know? Besides, you've got a problem. Don't forget you have to have a date, and I don't know anyone who'd want to go with a dork like you. Even them. I'll bet if you ask them, they'd run like scared rabbits." Herb and Nicolas cringe at her, backing away.
"Who needs them? There are lots of other boys!"
"Oh yeah? What are you waiting for then? Try and find one" Sissi responds laughing. Milly turns to the left, looking at Ulrich. He and the others are decorating the gym for the prom, except for Jeremy of course.
"Um, U-Ulrich? Would you…would you be my date tonight?" Milly asks in embarrassment, turning red as a few tears escape her eyes.
"Uh," Ulrich blushes. "I'm sorry Milly. It wouldn't be a very good idea. I'm too old for you. And, uh…well, you see, I promised to go with Yumi." Yumi smiles at him and they both blush.
"You see?" Sissi laughs. "What did I tell you? But don't worry Milly. I'm sure you'll find a boy for the sandbox dance. Meanwhile, why don't you go play with dolls?"
Milly runs out crying. "Milly! Milly, wait!" Tamiya runs after her, Sissi and her gang smirking.
"I hope you're proud of yourself" Yumi says, and they turn to the others as they stare at her.
"Enjoy it now, because one day it will blow up in your face" Nadia warns her as they return to work.
Jeremy is in his room, working on Aelita's materialization program. He tries contacting her while she's in the desert sector. "Aelita? This is Jeremy, do you read me? Aelita?"
She appears on his screen. "Hi, how are you?"
"Uh, I'm fine. How about you?"
"Okay. I didn't see anything unusual around the towers. It all seems quiet," she reports. "Well, for the moment."
"You know, I'm making progress with my research, so…so you can live with us."
"The key to materialization? You've found it at last?"
"Well…no, not yet, but I'm working on it. It's just a matter of time. Then Xana won't be able to do anything to harm you, or us."
"That's great, thanks."
Milly cries as she holds her teddy bear in the room she shares with Tamiya. "Milly don't cry. We'll go to the prom, you'll see. As for the news, Jim said it was okay. We have until 9 o'clock."
"Oh, it's a waste of time! Let's face the facts! They don't care about the news. Oh, I hate them all!" Little did they know that Xana was watching them from their computer. "I hate them! I hate every single one of them! I hate everybody in the world!"
"You don't know what you're saying. It's just-"
"Oh, stop it, I'm sick of you too! Just leave me alone!" Milly runs out of the room with her teddy bear crying. Tamiya looks at her from their door.
"It's true, Ulrich could've been a little nicer" Tamiya admits.
Ulrich tapes down some wires. "Don't look so gloomy, Ulrich," Yumi tries to comfort him. "Is it because of Milly? You could've said yes, you know me. It's prom."
"Even if I was your date?" Odd asks using the microphone.
"You could just go alone. That's what I'm doing" Nadia tells them.
"Hey Nadia, go with me as a friend?" Odd asks.
"Sorry Odd, but no. I don't mind going alone, and plus I don't want people thinking we're a couple."
"What are you hoping for Nadia?" Ulrich asks.
"Hopefully, I find someone tonight. That's the benefit of going alone. Lots of options."
Sissi is admiring herself in the disco ball.
"Sissi did come on a little strong. If meanness is one of the qualities of a beauty queen, she'll get re-elected alright" Ulrich comments. Jeremy comes into the room, placing down a box.
"It will catch up to her soon. Soon, she'll be the one being bullied" Nadia comments.
"That's true Ulrich but try to get Miss World to see that" Jeremy says, smiling.
"Ha, Miss World, huh? Miss Inner World is more like it" Odd replies as they all laugh and Sissi glares.
Milly is hiding in the garden shed. "At least you don't care how old I am, do you?" She asks the teddy bear. "We understand each other. We're not like those dumb older kids who always want to run things. They think that because we're young, we don't count at all. If for once we were older, a lot older than them, they wouldn't laugh at us, would they?" The light flickers above her.
"Milly," she gasps as Tamiya knocks on the window. "Are you in there? Are you finished sulking? Hurry, we have work to do."
"Okay, okay, I'm coming," Milly calls out. She places her bear, touching its nose. "You stay right there. I'll be back for you." She opens the door, closing it.
"We have a report to finish on the prom, remember?" Tamiya reminds her. The light bulb sparks, a shadowy figure comes down on the teddy bear and a red eye symbol appears in its eyes…there's a roar from the shed.
Sissi walks to her room. "Hey, I hope you two aren't gonna follow me around all day long. As far as I know, you're not beauticians, so stop sticking to me like glue. I don't need you, understand, so scoot" she waves away Nicolas and Herb.
"Uh, Sissi, we -we thought-" Herb starts.
"Take this advice. Don't think, it doesn't suit you." She glances the door closed and she hears them leave. She brushes her bang away, walking over to her bed. She slips her shoes off. "A bunch of babies at our prom. They've gotta be kidding." She takes off her pants, skirt, and t-shirt. She puts on some music from her stereo on loud, walking over to her closet. "And that other freak who had the nerve to invite Ulrich. Can't believe it." She starts going through her clothes as one of her sheets moves away. "If anybody's going out with Ulrich, it absolutely has to be me. I am the star, the diva of the school."
Xana watches her as she goes to her vanity. Sitting down in front of her mirror. She adjusts her bangs, getting some cream. She hears a noise, turning around in alarm. Sissi turns down her music, seeing nothing. She smiles at herself in the mirror, scratching her backside as she places a band-aid on her nose. She peels it off and places some cucumbers on her eyes, having a facial mask on. Her bottles from the top shelf start shacking.
"Who's there? Answer me, who is it?" She demands and she takes off the cucumbers just in time to see her bottles falling down. A cloud appears and she falls to the ground. She runs out of her room.
Some students have gathered around Sissi, who's in a bathrobe. "Move along, back to your dorms, everything is fine" Mr. Delmas dismisses.
"Looks as if we got ourselves a super scoop!" Milly says as Tamiya takes a picture. The five look at Sissi being led away by her dad.
"What do you say we take a look to make sure that our old friend Xana isn't behind this" Odd suggests, Yumi nodding.
"What do you think?" Ulrich asks Jeremy as they look inside Sissi's room.
"A simple short-circuit. Too many appliances plugged in at the same time" Jeremy explains.
"Yeah, the headlights, lady shaver, curling iron all together, what do you expect to happen?" Yumi asks.
"At least we can take it easy and not worry for tonight" Nadia says as they walk away.
"There's also a brain simulator in here too. She probably never figured out how to use it. Hm…" Jeremy comments and walks away. Milly and Tamiya appear, and Tamiya takes a picture.
"I don't know what happened, but if you ask me, Sissi had it coming" Milly opens the door to the shed.
"I couldn't agree with you more" Tamiya says, Milly gasping to see her teddy bear isn't where she left it.
"Oh no! My teddy bear's gone!"
"Ah ha!" They turn around to see Jim. "Caught you. It's forbidden to play in the garden shed."
"Wait a minute. Jim, it was my-"
"I don't wanna know why," he interrupts. "I've told you a hundred times that this place is much too dangerous for children. Look at all these rusty tools. What do you think this is, a kids playground?" He leads Milly out.
"We know, but-"
"No buts, huh?" He locks the shed. "I hope I've made myself clear. Entry forbidden. Access reserved for adults."
"With you, everything is off-limits!" Milly argues.
"Now you listen here, huh? I would change the way I talk if I were you, little girl."
"Little girl?! Okay, I'm young, so what? It's only the big kids who can say what they think, huh?" Milly crosses her arms.
"Huh, so you think you're real big kids. Ha! Okay, that's fine. News report, or not, the two of you are grounded for tonight in your room!"
"Oh great, Milly. Really great. Thanks to you, it's goodbye prom" Tamiya sulks.
"Now beat it!"
Milly cries outside the building, Tamiya trying to reassure her. "Aw, look at the pictures we took. They're really fantastic."
Odd and Nadia are talking. "Come on, why not?" Odd asks.
"The answer's no got it! And I already gave you a reason!" Nadia argues with Odd about being his date. Odd notices Milly crying.
"Something wrong, Milly?" They step up to them, bending down.
"Somebody stole her teddy bear" Tamiya explains.
"And I'm sure it's one of the big kids who did it for spite!" Milly accuses.
"Impossible. No one hates you, except for Sissi, but she was occupied all day" Nadia concludes.
"Maybe not. Look at this," they all look at the picture Tamiya has in her hand. "It's a picture of Sissi's room."
"And there's my teddy bear!" Milly points to a teddy bear under a pillow. "Hidden under a pillow. Incredible."
"Ah, who would've believed it? Soon she'll be playing with dolls" Odd jokes.
"Okay, come on now. We gotta find her."
"If Jim catches us in the dorm, we're in big trouble Milly" Tamiya reminds her.
"You go back to your room," Odd takes the picture. "We'll handle this." The two girls smile happily at them as they leave.
Jim is about to go into the gym when he hears a rustle from the bushes. "What's going on now? Who's there? Come on out!" He screams as a large shadow looms over him. "Y-You better watch out! I'm a black belt!"
There's a snarl and he whimpers, backing away. He screams in fear.
In Sissi's room, Odd and Nadia look in bewilderment, seeing no teddy bear. Odd looks at the picture, placing his hands on his hips.
'No teddy bear. I really hope Xana isn't behind this' Nadia thinks.
"And now you're sure Jim, that this is your attacker?" Mr. Delmas asks Jim in the infirmary, who nods rapidly. "And you say he's an expert in martial arts?" Jim nods again. "I think it would be better not to call the police, right Jim?" Jim whimpers, hiding in his blanket.
Odd unloads a box, still preparing for tonight, with everyone else.
"What happened to Sissi, it was…it was kind of weird, don't you think?" Jeremy asks.
"It was a short circuit, a simple short circuit. What else could it be?" Ulrich replies.
"I'm not so sure Ulrich, you know just what I mean."
"Remember the ball" Nadia adds.
"Anyway, let's play it cool. Walls have ears, hm?" Yumi suggests as Herb and Nicolas walk by. Yumi stands up, stretching her arms. "Oh well, I've gotta go now and get ready for the prom tonight. Ah, sometimes being a day student can be a total drag."
"Don't complain. No one wakes you at 6AM. You have hot water, and you don't have to sleep next to smelly Odd" Ulrich explains and Yumi chuckles, waving before she leaves. Jeremy waves at her.
"See ya later."
"Shouldn't you get ready too Nadia?" Odd asks.
"No, I'm fine. I only have one dress, so it won't be a problem," Nadia responds. "I need to be on alert tonight. If this is Xana, this is only the beginning" Nadia says quietly.
Mr. Delmas leaves the infirmary, Odd and Nadia standing nearby. "Odd, Nadia, are you looking for something?"
"Oh, uh, no. You see, we just heard about what happened to Jim. Do they know who attacked him?" Odd explains.
"No, for now I think our gym teacher could use some rest" he throws a ball of paper away and then leaves. Nadia retrieves it and gives it to Odd.
"This might give us an idea of who attacked Sissi too" she tells him.
Odd opens it, and they both gasp at the drawing…of a teddy bear.
"Xana?" Ulrich asks looking at the drawing. "In a teddy bear?"
"Yeah, we're pretty sure" Odd answers.
"He's always there when you least expect him" Jeremy comments.
"Okay guys, who goes and who stays here?" Odd offers.
"We can't have a solo mission, it's too dangerous without Yumi. If you go alone, you never know what you're gonna find over there" Jeremy warns.
"I volunteer!" Odd answers.
"What did I just say, huh?"
"Well, have you got any other ideas? There have been two accidents, we can't leave the school unguarded and even going back in time, if there's an accident, it's all over!" Odd reminds him.
"Odd is right. You go, and I'll stay. If I find any clues, I'll pass them onto you" Ulrich tells them.
"Jeremy, I'm going to Lyoko with Odd. Ulrich, you okay to handle this by yourself?" Nadia asks.
"Yeah, go on and say hi to you know who for me" Ulrich teases, Jeremy smiling with a faint blush on his face.
Odd, Nadia, and Jeremy enter the sewers through the school boiler room. Odd and Nadia grab a skateboard, while Jeremy grabs a scooter. They ride through the tunnel. They arrive at the end of the tunnel. They climb up onto the bridge. They swing on the ropes in the factory, landing in front of the elevator. Jeremy presses the button, and the elevator descends to the lab. Once there, Nadia and Odd stay in the elevator and Jeremy exits. Jeremy sits in his chair and activates the interface. Nadia and Odd exit into the scanner room, both getting into a scanner.
"Aelita. Aelita. Aelita, it's Jeremy," he says into the microphone. "Do you read me?"
She appears on the screen. "Hi there."
"We think that Xana has launched an attack. Have you noticed anything?"
She shakes her head. "No, nothing. But we can take a closer look."
"Aelita, I'm sending Odd and Nadia. Ulrich stayed behind to watch for any virus action at school. Both look ready to go. How are things with you Ulrich?"
"It looks like we have a problem, a big one" Ulrich is looking at large footprints.
"Transfer Odd. Transfer Nadia." Jeremy says as the doors close. "Scanner." They are both scanned. "Virtualization."
The two are virtualized into the desert sector. Odd lands on his feet and hands, while Nadia lands on her feet. They both look around. Aelita is waving at them a few feet away. They start running over to her.
"Jeremy, it's bad. The bear got out of the school" Ulrich reports, looking at some damage.
"If it's under Xana's control, it'll only become much madder. It'll go for anybody that's around, especially his mortal enemies," Aelita explains. "Like you."
"Huh?!" Jeremy exclaims.
"Oh Yumi!" Ulrich realizes, starting to run into the neighborhood.
"You see that?" Aelita points to a gaping hole. "The tower that Xana has activated can't be too far away."
"Well, uh, not down there anyway" Odd comments.
"Maybe on the neighboring plateaus."
"Hold on, if there's a path, there has to be something down on it" Nadia suggests.
"Hmm, oops, too late. Here comes the reception committee" Odd says as five kankerlots appear. They gasp as they're surrounded.
"The giant bugs again" Nadia comments.
"These things gave me a run for my money last time" Odd remembers the first time he encountered them.
"You two, take good care of Aelita" Jeremy worries.
Ulrich dials Yumi as he runs, following the damage caused by the teddy bear. "Answer, will you answer?"
Yumi's phone rings, but she's in the bathroom. She lifts her head up from the water.
"Odd, Nadia, what's going on?" Jeremy demands.
Odd jumps from various lasers, while Nadia blocks. "Laser arrow!" He fires an arrow, defeating one. Nadia deflects a laser back as Odd is hit. Aelita runs for cover in the pit.
"Odd, you just lost another 10 life points!" Jeremy tells him.
"No kidding" he retorts, as he also enters the pit.
"These guys don't stop Jeremy, no openings," Nadia adds., as she's hit in the shoulder. She holds her hand out, and thinks of burning sting, like electricity and fires electricity out of her hand, at a kankerlot, destroying it. "Electricity, cool."
Nadia is hit in the chest after being caught off guard. She quickly gets up and runs into the pit.
"Come on you two, we got to follow the path down" Aelita says and Odd gets a vision of Aelita falling down the hole.
Ulrich pushes on the door bell, getting Yumi's attention. She wraps herself in a towel as Ulrich continues to ring the bell. She comes down the stairs, now wearing a mini skirt and leggings. He pushes past her. "Ulrich! Watch it, will you?"
"Sorry, are your parents home?" He asks.
"No, they went out."
"Okay, come on, we can't stay here" he pulls her out the door.
She grabs her arm back. Hey, would you mind explaining?" She hears a thump and turns around, gasping.
"We don't have time, come on!" He starts running with her, the large teddy bear following after them.
The kankerlots follow the three down the hole. "You two have to be careful. Odd, you got 50, Nadia 55" Jeremy informs.
"Laser arrows!" Odd firing three, getting one of the two. The last one falls down in front of Aelita, startling her and making her fall.
"Aelita!" Nadia tries to catch her but is unsuccessful. She dives down after her. She goes past her and stabs the wall with her sword and grabs her as she falls near her. "Gotcha!"
"I see I can't leave you two ladies for a second, can I, huh?" Odd comments and jumps down to their position.
Aelita discovers a tunnel. "Nadia, I think your right. I found something."
The teddy bear continues to terrorize the city, people running away screaming. Ulrich and Yumi run to the school, the teddy bear crushing a car with its foot.
"That way!" Yumi exclaims and they turn a corner. They hide inside a building, gasping as the teddy bear walks past them, breaking the window with its loud stomp. Ulrich and Yumi inch closer to each other, blushing as they realize their situation. Yumi brushes away her hair.
"Jeremy, it's Ulrich," Ulrich says. "Yumi's with me. We're coming back to the school to evacuate everyone. Tell Odd and Nadia to move it. It's getting rough around here."
"Odd, Nadia, hurry up. Teddy's getting real angry" Jeremy informs them.
"Okay, okay" Odd calls out.
"The tower can't be too far away," Aelita says. "Let's see now…"
She starts walking, Odd and Nadia catching up with her. They suddenly hear a noise, turning around to see a megatank.
"Oh no, not the heavy hitter" Nadia says in fear.
"Houston, we've got a problem" Odd comments.
The three take off down the tunnel.
Yumi and Ulrich arrive at the school in front of the gym. Yumi moves her phone away from her ear. "Nadia and Odd still haven't found the activated tower."
"You go and clear the dorms. I'll take care of the gym" Ulrich catches his breath. Yumi nods at him.
The three reach the end of the tunnel and all dodge to a side to avoid being crushed. The megatank rolls past them and hits the activated tower. The three look up to see it.
"We found the tower Jeremy" Odd calls out.
"Great, well done, now all you have to do is deactivate it" he tells them.
"Okay, just give us a minute to say hello to an old buddy of ours" Odd replies.
"Cut the courtesy, you're both one hit from devirtualization. You can't let it hit you!"
"Odd, we have to tag team him" Nadia tells him and Odd nods in reply.
Ulrich walks around the gym, bumping into Jim. "Hey Ulrich, you could have made a little effort. I don't believe how sloppy you look. Well, I'll let it go this time. Put it down to the company you keep. Try to chill out and have fun, you look like you're expecting a disaster."
Jim didn't know that the giant teddy bear from earlier would arrive soon.
"Ulrich," Sissi stops him from walking. Her hair is curled, and she wears a one shoulder t-shirt with a yellow and purple star. Her pants are blue with a star on the back. "How are you? Hey, where did your date go? Next time, just call me."
Ulrich narrows his eyes in annoyance. "And now, the moment you've all been waiting for, the election of this year's beauty queen. So get ready" Mr. Delmas announces.
"Gotta run now, it's my moment of triumph" she walks away. Herb and Nicolas laughing. Ulrich glares at them and they stop.
The megatank gets ready to fire, sending an extremely thin, vertical 360 circular wall of yellow-orange energy. Odd and Nadia jump away from it. He aims his paw again.
"Now that's what I call a really warm welcome" Odd comments, as it fires again, the explosion knocking him back.
"Odd, let me distract the thing" Nadia tells him.
"Jeremy, Odd and Nadia aren't going to make it on their own" Aelita calls out.
"Yes, they will. They just have to hit the target" Jeremy replies.
Nadia prepares to get the megatank to focus on her. It was extremely risky, but this will allow Odd to get an opening for a clean shot.
"And now, everyone, this year once again, it's time to elect the young lady who in your view, combines more than any other girl, charm, grace, beauty, and elegance. And here is our first candidate" Mr. Delmas gestures to Sissi and she steps forward.
"Stop! Listen to what I have to say." Ulrich is standing on a table, using another microphone. "You have all got to get out of here. We have to evacuate the gym. Now, keep calm." They all stare at him. "I'm not joking, this is serious. We are about to be attacked by a gigantic teddy bear." The kids start laughing at the thought.
"Ha, I knew it! I saw it, too!" Jim insists. "I saw the giant teddy bear too!" They start laughing again.
"Quiet! Quiet, shut up, all of you, you bunch of idiots!" Sissi shouts. "Can't you see what he's trying to do? It's a trick, I tell you, to keep me from winning again this year! A gigantic teddy bear, come on! Why not King Kong while you're at it?"
Suddenly, the teddy bear crashes into the school behind her, and she screams. Jim screams at his attacker and Ulrich gasps. Sissi runs as it stomps onto the stage, turning to Ulrich.
"Odd, Nadia, it's now or never" Jeremy informs them.
"Hey, you!" Nadia calls out and the megatank turns to her. It opens and tries to fire. Nadia dodges its multiple laser fires. "Odd, now!" Nadia calls out before turning invisible, confusing the megatank.
Odd jumps into the air, landing on it. He aims at the eye. "Impact!" He hits jumps away as the megatank rolls away and explodes as it hits the wall. Nadia also reappears. The two high five. Jeremy sighs in relief.
"Go on Aelita, it's up to you" Jeremy tells her.
She enters the tower. Aelita walks into the middle, floating to the top.
Ulrich looks nervously as the teddy bear raises its arm, slamming it down. Ulrich runs away as the windows smash.
"Ulrich!" Yumi sees the windows break, running to go help him. Ulrich trips, landing on the ground.
Aelita makes it to the top, walking up.
The teddy bear snarls as Ulrich looks up.
Aelita presses her hand to the screen.
Aelita
Code
Ulrich closes his eyes.
Lyoko
The teddy bear stops as Ulrich screams. He opens his eyes, sighing in relief. "Ulrich," Yumi bends down to him. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, sure" he replies as Yumi hugs him happily and a faint blush is on his face.
The tower deactivates and there's a flash of light, It starts to engulf everything.
"Ready for a trip into the past Yumi?" Ulrich says as they both look at each other as the return to the past happens.
Time is reversed to the afternoon, and just like before, Milly is standing outside the gym. "Ulrich, would you, uh…would you…would you be my date?" She blushes like before, crying a little. But this time, Ulrich steps over to her, bending down to her height.
"Be glad to Milly" Ulrich replies to her to Sissi's shock. "I'll see you here at 8."
"Really?" Milly asks happily.
"Well, sure." Ulrich stands up. "You're not too mad at me, are ya Yumi?"
"Not at all," she smiles. "Anyway, my secret admirer will dance with me tonight, right Odd?"
"What?!" Sissi exclaims in disbelief. "But – Ulrich! You're gonna…go with that silly baby?!"
"That's right, I sure am, but don't worry. When your brain gets another neuron or two, maybe I'll go out with you too" Ulrich replies.
Sissi growls, turning red in embarrassment. Tamiya is recording the whole thing.
Nadia smiles at this, even though this all happened before Xana's attack, she's glad Ulrich changed his mind.
"You are recording Tamiya, I hope" Milly turns to her friend.
"You bet I am. This is a scoop!" Tamiya replies.
"A super scoop!"
The time for the dance arrived. The only difference this time is they could all go without the threat of Xana. Nadia had on a blue long sleeved dress that reached down to her knees. The sleeves are colored a white tulle. The skirt is surrounded by light blue tulle. Several flowers are attached to the bottom of the dress, with a few attached to the sleeves. She makes her way inside the gym and sees the others already there. Since Ulrich was with Milly, she went over to where Odd and Yumi were.
"Hey guys. No Jeremy?" She asks.
"Ah you know Einstein. His princess can't be here and right now he is trying to break the wall that separates them" Odd comments.
"I wonder if he ever will free her. I would like him too. Might help clear up some answers about why she looks so similar."
"You think you've seen her?" Yumi asks.
"Or someone very close to her."
It was at this time the principal announced the beauty queen competition. "Say Nadia, why didn't you compete?" Odd asks.
"One, I don't do competitions. And two, just because you think I'm beautiful doesn't mean the rest of the school does."
"I feel the same way. If it's a race or gymnastics, it's a different story" Yumi adds.
Sissi did end up winning it again. The night began to wind down, and the final dance was announced. "Nadia?" Odd asks. She turns to him. "May I have this final dance?"
"Yumi?" She asks.
"Go ahead. I'm not big on romantic dances anyway" Yumi responds.
Nadia offers her hand and Odd takes her over to the dance floor. The two dance and eventually get close to where Ulrich and Milly were. "Hey Nadia, I thought you weren't gonna be with Odd?" Ulrich asks.
"Still not. Just this one dance" she responds.
"Never?" Odd asks.
"Sorry Odd. I like you as a friend, not in a romantic way."
"Uh Ulrich?" Milly asks. He turns toward her. "Thanks for being my date tonight."
"No problem" Ulrich responds.
Yumi was watching from back in the gym. She had no reason to get jealous of Milly. Originally, Ulrich was gonna take her. Even though Xana ruined their original plans, she still thinks this was better for everybody that time was reversed.
A.N. – This was to be a little added of a scene. Since we don't see the dance originally, just a small part of it, I don't have much to go on. I also thought Nadia having one dance with Odd would add one of those twists after her initial rejection earlier. PM me with story ideas! Review with questions or comments! I will respond! As always, till next time! See ya! -lyokowarrior97
