A/N: I'm afraid this chapter is also based on an episode from the show. And so will the next two chapters, since they deal with introduction of Sector 5 and Franz Hopper. But after that, I've got an original XANA attack planned, don't worry.

Chapter 5: The Mystery

Jeremy sat in the factory lab, putting the finishing touches on his latest program. "And, done!" Jeremy looked at his work with pride.

He pulled out his cell and called Odd. "What's up, Einstein?" he asked.

"I finished the program," Jeremy replied. "You know what to do."

"That's great! By the way, what about my idea?" he asked.

"Finished that too. So grab Ulrich and Yumi and met me at the factory for a test drive." Jeremy hung up.

It took a while, but Odd, Ulrich, and Yumi all arrived at the factory. "So you finally finished?" Yumi asked.

"Yup! I can't wait to tell Aelita!" Jeremy said.

"But what about the other thing? Our super cool vehicles?" Odd asked.

"I told you I'm finished. Head to the scanners while I contact Aelita." They nodded and headed down the elevator. "Aelita? Can you hear me?"

"I hear you." Aelita popped onto the screen. "What's going on? Is XANA attacking? I don't feel any pulsations."

"No, nothing like that. I'm sending the others to your location to test out the vehicles I made."

"Oh, that sounds interesting. I'm sure that'll give us an edge against XANA," she said. "I'll be waiting."

"Alright guys. I'm sending you to the Desert Sector," Jeremy informed his friends. They entered the scanners. "Transfer: Odd. Transfer: Ulrich. Transfer: Yumi. Scanner: Odd. Scanner: Ulrich. Scanner: Yumi." He hit the last key. "Virtualization!"


The three Lyoko warriors were virtualized outside the way tower. Aelita come out to greet them. "So, ready to see what Jeremy has cooked up for us?"

"Yeah!" Odd looked the most excited.

"Well then," Jeremy's voice said, "you first then. Odd, I give you the Overboard."

In front of Odd appeared a purple and magenta board that hovered slightly over the ground. It had a small booster on each side and a cat face on the front. The other snickered at the design. "Oh, ha ha ha. I didn't didn't know you had a sense of humor Einstein," Odd remarked sarcastically.

"Just like to save it for moments like this," Jeremy commented. "But it's fast."

"Fast, you say," Odd said with intrigue. "I'll be the judge of that." He hopped on.

"Ok, Ulrich, say hello to the Overbike." In front of him appear a motorcycle with a single tire. It was black with neon color lines. On the back was a rocket booster. "This vehicle is capable of ground transportation and flight using the rocket booster on the back."

"Nice!" Ulrich said as he mounted his new vehicle.

"Last, but not least, Yumi. Sorry Aelita, but I only had time to make three vehicles," Jeremy explained.

"That's fine," the pink haired girl assured him.

"Anyway, Yumi, you got the Overwing." In front of Yumi the Overwing appeared, hovering above the ground. It was designed like a scooter but much larger, with a round, platform like bottom. It was silver with a red dot on front.

Yumi jumped on and grabbed the handles. "I like it." She noticed there was room for another and turned to Aelita. "Need a lift?" She nodded and hopped on.

"Um, if you want, I could work on something for you," Jeremy offered.

"No need. I can always hitch a ride with one of the others," she answered as she got on the Overwing.

"Race ya to that rock over there!" Odd challenged, pointing at a far away rock structure.

"Your on!" Ulrich said, revving the Overbike's engines. "Get ready to eat my dust!"

"That'll be hard to do while I'm ahead of you!" Odd shot back.

"What do ya say, Aelita? Ready to show these boys up?" Yumi asked her passenger.

"Of course," she replied.

"Alright then, line up," Jeremy said. They did so. "On your mark. Get set. Go!"

The three speeded off, Odd taking the lead followed Yumi and Aelita. Ulrich was last but quickly caught up to the girls. Odd started doing tricks. "This handles like a dream Einstein!" he shouted.

"See you at the finish line," Yumi said. Aelita waved with a smirk on her face as they passed him by.

"Yeah, after I get there first!" Odd shouted back as he caught up.

"Don't think I'm out of the race yet!" Ulrich sped up until all three of them were neck and neck.

Jeremy looked at the screen, secretly rooting for Aelita, when a red mark appeared. "Heads up! You've got incoming directly ahead!"

"What is it? Hornets? Bloks?" Ulrich asked.

"No clue. I don't recognise the ID card. You should be able to see it now."

The Lyoko warriors stopped and looked ahead. Approaching them was a white monster that bore a slight resemblance to a spider, but with only four legs and a snouted head with the Eye of XANA on it. "Looks like XANA's been busy too. He made a new monster," Aelita said.

"Be careful. This thing has more life points than the others," Jeremy warned.

"Lets see, what to call it?" Odd pondered. While he did so, the new monster stopped, sat on it's hind legs, and pointed it's front legs at him, with were tipped with laser cannons. It shoot lasers in rapid succession. Odd was caught off guard and tried to dodge, but his Overboard was hit and devirtualized. It then turned its attention to the others and quickly devirtualized their vehicles too.

"Jeremy, can you reprogram our vehicles?" Yumi asked.

"Yes, but it'll take time. Aelita, head back to the way tower so I can devirtualize you."

"Got it." Aelita ran off back to the tower.

The monster pointed its cannons at her and fire but Ulrich stepped in between them and blocked the shots with his sword. "Nu-uh. You have to deal with us first."

Yumi threw her fan, aiming for the symbol on its head, but the monster shot it out of the sky. Odd shot laser arrows at its chest, which hit, but weren't enough to destroy it. "Man this thing is tough!" The monster shot at him in rapid succession. Odd dodged most of them, but two hit his chest knocking him back.

"Odd, you're down forty life points!" Jeremy told him.

The monster turned back to Ulrich, who attempted to close in, but was forced to stop and block the incoming lasers. He looked toward Aelita's location to make sure she was alright, but that proved to be a mistake as multiple lasers hit him, devirtualizing him.

Yumi threw her fans again, but the monster leaned to the side to dodge. Jeremy finally finished reprogramming the vehicles and the Overboard and Overwing appeared. "About time!" Odd said.

"Hey, they're still new!" Jeremy defended. "It'll take time before I can program them quickly."

"Whatever. I got this!" Odd hopped on his vehicle and flew into the air. The new monster fired, but this time Odd was ready. He dodge the attack and shot a few arrows. Most missed, but two hit its back. But it still wasn't destroyed. "What's it gonna take to beat this thing?"

"Better aim?" Yumi offered from the Overwing. The monster charged it's lasers and fired two strong bolts that destroyed the Overwing. Yumi rolled on the ground, but recovered and did cartwheels as the monster fired on her. Odd tried to shoot it, but there was only a clicking noise, meaning he was out of ammo. Yumi tried to throw her fan once more, but once again, it was shot in the barrage of lasers and soon she was overpowered and devirtualized.

"Aelita's in the tower," Jeremy said. "I'm running Code: Earth."

"Good," Odd said as he was shot out of the sky and devirtualized.


Everyone was in the lab. Jeremy sighed. "I guess it was wishful thinking XANA wouldn't up his game too. We need to be on the lookout for anymore new monsters he may have made."

"Plus, you need to program our vehicles faster, or we won't stand a chance against those Tarantulas."

"What?" Yumi asked.

"Tarantulas. That's what I'm calling them. Cause they walk like spiders," Odd explained.

"What I want to know is, just how XANA is getting stronger?" Jeremy said. "It's obvious he has a way of increasing his power."

"Think he's still evolving?" Ulrich asked. Jeremy nodded. "Great," he remarked sarcastically.

Aelita stood up. "Well, I should head back to Lyoko. XANA could attack at any moment." She was about to head to elevator when she noticed everyone had a strange grin on their face, as opposed to the usual depressed look when she returned.

"Come on, tell her," Yumi urged.

Aelita looked confused. "Tell me what?"

Jeremy smirked and motioned her over. "I've been working on a little program. Say hello to the Super Scan." He showed Aelita the program. To most people, it was unintelligible, but to computer whizzes like him and Aelita, it was much more. She looked impressed. "It'll constantly scan every tower in Lyoko simultaneously and instantly send me an alert the moment XANA activates one."

Aelita's eyes widened. "That means…"

"Mmhmm," Jeremy said, nodding. "Odd and Ulrich have already registered you here as a boarder at school. Right guys?"

"Come on, you really think we'd forget to do that?" Odd said.

"We wanted to surprise you after we tested the vehicles," Yumi told her, putting a hand on her shoulder. "Everything is all set up."

For a moment, Aelita was completely speechless. Then she started to regain her voice. "This is… I mean… This is so wonderful! Thank you!"


Jim opened the door. "And this the room you'll be staying at, Miss, uh…" He scratched his head trying to remember her name.

"Stones. Aelita Stones," she told him. She had gotten less shy since the first time she came her, not that anyone but her and the Lyoko warriors remembered due to the Return to the Past. "I'm Odd's cousin from Canada."

"Right. Aelita Stones. Anyway, breakfast is at 7. That's am, not pm, though that's, uh, pretty obvious. And dinner is at 7 too, just pm this time. You are not allowed to be here between 8am and 4:30pm. Curfew is at 10, and no boys in here late at night. Nor are you allowed in a boy's dorm at that time. Your cousin and his friends will fill you in on the other rules, if they can remember them." He looked at Jeremy, Ulrich, and Odd, who all flashed innocent smiles. "Anyway, we hope you enjoy your time here at Kadic Academy."


"Kiwi, stay still," Odd told his dog, who was thrashing around in his bag. "Just wait and then you can run around all you want."

"This is a bad idea. I told you to leave him in your room," Jeremy told him.

"What! No way! There's no way I'd leave my little diggity-dog alone when he could have the chance to run around free and away from the prying eyes of one grumpy gym teacher."

Jeremy shook his head and waved Aelita over when he saw her. "So, settling in fine?" he asked.

"Yeah, I like my room. Thanks again guys," she said with a smile. "So what's this field trip about?"

"Mrs. Hertz wants us to make a biodiversity scrapbook, with pictures and drawings of the different plants we find," Jeremy explained. "We're working in pairs and we've been assigned together."

"Sounds great," Aelita responded.

"Hey, new girl!" The three looked to see Milly and Tamiya run up to them. "Care to give us a quick interview for the school newspaper?" Milly asked.

Aelita thought about it for a moment. "I guess."

"Great! Tamiya, roll camera."

"Rolling," she responded, pointing her camera.

"Hello. This is Milly Solovieff from the Kadic News reporting. Here with us is the new girl in school. Would you like to tell our audience your name?"

"Aelita Stones," she answered. "I'm Odd's cousin."

"Really? You're related to Odd?" Milly asked.

"That's right," Odd confirmed.

"So where are you from Aelita?"

"Canada."

"Where in Canada?"

"Um, Toronto," she answered, thinking of the first city in Canada that came to mind.

"And what do you like to do?" Milly asked.

"Well, I'm good with computers. People say I'm a real whiz at them."

"Geez, sounds like we have a Miss Einstein around here," Sissi commented loudly from nearby.

"Huh? Mrs. Einstein… I like it. It's like your nickname, right Jeremy?" she asked.

The young genius nodded before looking away and blushing. Odd covered his mouth to keep himself from laughing and Milly and Tamiya exchanged looks. "So, have you had any prior exchanges with any of Odd's friends before coming here?"

"Actually, yes." Jeremy and Odd looked at her surprised. Luckily, no one noticed and they weren't on camera. "See, Jeremy and I were pen-pals. We use to video chat and write letters to each other lot, and this was before he and Odd became friends. It was nice and I'm glad we can finally be together in person." Jeremy felt a slight blush return.

"So you two are close?"

Aelita nodded. "He's my best friend and very special to me."

"Ok, I think that's all we need. Thanks Aelita!" The two ran off, sharing knowing grins.

"They were nice," Aelita said as she turned back to her friends and noticed they were acting strange. Odd was covering his mouth with one hand and holding his gut with the other while Jeremy was looking away with a ting of pink on his face. "What up?"

"Oh, n-nothing," Jeremy said. "Oh look, there's Ulrich."

"Hey Ulrich, you tell Yumi yet?" Odd asked after finally recovering, knowing the boy had planned to finally tell Yumi how he felt.

"Shut it!" he growled.

"Geez, what's got you so grumpy?" Odd asked.

"None of your business," he spat out.

Aelita frowned. "Hey, that wasn't nice. Odd was only trying to…"

Odd put his hand up to stop her. "Forget it. He's in one of his moods. He'll get over it and we'll find out what's wrong."


The class arrived at the forest. Since the field trip was for 8th and 9th graders, Yumi was there too. Ulrich glared at her partner. "So that's it," Odd said as he noticed the look on the roommate's face.

"Just who is that guy anyway?" Ulrich asked.

"That's William Dunbar. He's new here. Apparently he got kicked out of his last school."

Meanwhile, Jeremy and Aelita were discussing the mathematics behind the growth of trees while Sissi, Herb, and Nicholas trailed behind them. "I certainly called it. She's definitely a little Mrs. Einstein." She turned toward the nearby shopping center.

"Hey Sissi, where are you going?" Herb asked.

"To the stores, duh," she answered.

"But we're suppose to draw plants."

"There's a florist in there," she responded as she crossed the street. Neither boy tried to stop her, knowing it'd be useless.


"Something wrong Aelita?" Jeremy asked as they walked deeper into the forest. Aelita was looking around nervously, like she was expecting an attack or something.

"Huh? Oh, sorry. It's just… This just reminds me of the Forest Sector in Lyoko and I can't help but worry one of XANA's monsters is gonna come out, like that Tarantula."

"Don't worry. The Super Scan hasn't picked up any activity and there are no such thing as monsters. That's just in fairy tales or silly horror movies like the ones Odd likes to watch," he assured her.

"You don't like horror movies?" Aelita asked.

"I think them scientifically inaccurate. I mean, a man who kills people in their dreams? Please, like that's possible."

"You sure it's not because they're scary?" Aelita asked.

"W-what? No. They're just dumb movies, why would I be scared?" he said, looking away.

Aelita giggled to herself. She could tell he was lying and was just too embarrassed to admit he was scared of them. "Whatever you say," she said with a grin.

"Anyway, I don't have time for movies with XANA taking up most of my time." Aelita looked away sadly, something that went unnoticed by Jeremy as he touched his bag and noticed something missing. "Oh no." He quickly opened his bag and looked through it.

"What is it?" Aelita asked.

"I left my laptop back at school."

"So go and get it. I can finish up here," Aelita told him. "Besides, with what we've already done, I'm sure we'll get the highest grade."

"Be right back!" Jeremy ran off.

"Bye." Aelita waved as he ran off and continued walking on her own.


Ulrich spied on William and Yumi from his camera. "Will you stop worrying. Yumi's crazy about you," Odd told him as he played with Kiwi.

"Says you. Honestly, I don't know how she feels about me."

"Geez, I'll never understand you two. I mean, are you going out or not?"

"It's complicated," was Ulrich's answer.

"Only because you two make it so," Odd replied.

Meanwhile, Yumi and William were talking. "So I hear you're a rebel," Yumi said.

"I won't call myself that," William answered. "I'm just a little rebellious."

"Well you did get kick out of your last school for putting posters all over the place," Yumi shot at him.

"I object your honor. They were not posters but love letters," William corrected.

"Are you saying love makes you crazy?"

"Crazy, no. Love makes me totally insane."


Aelita looked around. She was hearing noises all around her and it scared her. "Monster are only in fairy tales. Monsters are only in fairy tales," she kept telling herself. Then she heard howling and held her head as images flashed before her eyes. Images of wolves. She dropped her notepad and ran as fast as she could, not know nor caring where she was going as long as it was far away from there.


Jeremy arrived in his dorm and grabbed his laptop, but before he could leave, an alert come from his computer. "Oh no."


Ulrich heard his cell phone ring and picked up. "Yeah?"

"XANA's activated a tower," Jeremy explained. "I had to go back to school to pick up my laptop, I need you guys to grab Aelita and meet me at the factory. Is Yumi with you?"

"I'd rather you call her yourself. Where'd you leave Aelita?"

"On the red trail. And hurry. I don't know what XANA has planned, but it can't be good."

"See you in a minute." He hung up. "Duty calls. We have to pick up Aelita."

"What about Yumi?" Odd asked.

"Jeremy will take care of her."

"But she's right…"

"I said Jeremy will take care her!" Ulrich said a little louder. Odd sighed and followed him, Kiwi close behind.


Aelita paused and leaned against a tree to catch her breath. The noises stopped, as did the visions of the wolf. But she had no idea where she was. Looking around, she saw a house in the distance. Not having any other ideas on what to do, she walked over to it. It was a large white house that had clearly seen better days. The paint was chipped, the lawn was overgrown with vegetation, and the fence around it was rusty. On the gate was a plague that read 'Hermitage'. She had another headache and for a moment, the building looked new. Curiosity overcame her, as well as a strange sense of familiarity. 'But that's impossible. I've never been here before.' She opened the gate and walked in, unaware of the camera that turned toward her, a familiar symbol temporarily flashing through the lens.


"I don't see Aelita. You sure Einstein said she was this way?" Odd asked.

"Yeah. He said the red trail," Ulrich said as he looked around. Kiwi rubbed against his leg. Ulrich looked down and saw Kiwi walk up to a notepad on the ground. "I think this is Aelita's."

"Good work Kiwi!" Odd praised. "Come on boy. Find Aelita."

Ulrich heard rustling to his left and threw a high kick, but stopped short when he saw who it was. "Nice to see you too," Yumi remarked sarcastically, though she wasn't mad.

"Hey Yumi, we can't find Aelita," Odd shouted. "But I think Kiwi has her scent."


Aelita opened the door and enter the house. The place was a mess, full of dust and cobweb. As she entered what she believed was the living room, she got another vision. The house was clean and livable. On the grand piano was a man with grey hair and a lab coat. He was playing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star'. He turned and Aelita saw he had thick round glasses and a bushy mustache and beard. Then the vision faded. She turned around and scream as a black, shadowy figure was upon her.


"What do ya mean you haven't found her yet?" Jeremy exclaimed over the phone. "She could be in danger!"

"Relax Einstein," Odd said. "Kiwi caught her scent. He lead us to this abandoned house. I'm sure she's inside, we just need to go get her."

"Well hurry. I don't know what XANA's attack is, but it's sure to be dangerous." He hung up.

"Alright, let's head in," Yumi said as she opened the gate. The boys followed her across the lawn and through the door. Once they were all inside, it shut on it's own. Odd tried to open it, but it was locked. Ulrich took out his phone, but there was no signal. Suddenly, a wooden desk rushed at them. They dodged and it collided with the door and broke.

"You thinking what I'm thinking?" Ulrich asked.

"XANA," Yumi said.

"Aelita must be here," Odd added.

The moved forward, but when they passed the kitchen, knives and forks flew at them. They ducked to avoid them and ran. XANA made more items fly at them, but they successfully avoided them and made it to the basement. They saw Aelita in one room lying on the floor. They rushed to her side. "Don't worry, princess, we got you," Ulrich said as he lifted her up.

The young girl stirred. "Guy's, it's a trap. XANA…"

Just then, the door started to slide shut, but Odd got in the way and held it open, using his foot to hold it back. "Hurry! Get Aelita out!"

Aelita crawled out under his leg, but before Ulrich and Yumi could, the force of the door increased and Odd was forced to move out of the way. Outside the room, they saw a gauge. The temperature inside the room Ulrich and Yumi were trapped in was increasing. "We have to get them out, or they'll be cooked alive!" Odd and Aelita struggled to open the door from one end while Ulrich and Yumi did the same from the other side, but the door refused to budge.

"Forget it! Hurry and get Aelita to the activated tower!" Ulrich ordered. "It's the only way to save us!"

He nodded and ran off with Aelita. When they got to the door leading outside, they found it locked, but were able to force it open when XANA launched a metal cabinet at them. The exited and were about to run into the forest when Aelita looked at another door. She had a vision and saw the man in the lab coat again, going through the door and entering the sewers. "Odd, this way. I think this leads to the sewers."

"What?" Odd looked confused. "What makes you say that?"

"I'm not sure, but I'm certain this will get us to the factory faster." She ran to the door and Odd followed. Her theory proved true as the path did indeed lead to the sewers.

They made it to the factory and took the elevator to the lab, where Jeremy was waiting. "Aelita! Thank goodness you're alright!"

"No time to talk! XANA plans to turn Ulrich and Yumi into dim sum!" Odd said.

"Alright, head to the scanners you two." They nodded and took the elevator down to the scanners and waited for Jeremy to virtualize them.


Odd and Aelita were virtualized in the Ice Sector. Jeremy virtualized the Overwing and Overboard. "The Overwing is for you Aelita."

"Our taxis are waiting for us. Let's go!" Odd said as he jumped on the Overboard and Aelita boarded the Overwing. The moved down the path. "The tower is just ahead."

"Careful, it's guarded by two Tarantulas," Jeremy warned.

"Two? Great," Odd remarked sarcastically.

"Maybe I can lure away one, then Odd can take care of the other," Aelita offered.

"That'll work."

"What? Aelita, just what are you planning?" Jeremy asked.

"She's gonna steal the show Einstein."


The temperature rose and sweat poured from Ulrich and Yumi's bodies. It got so hot that they were forced to discard their shirts, leaving Yumi's upper torso covered only by her black bra and Ulrich's bare. They sat back to back so Ulrich couldn't see her. Silence ensued until Ulrich decided to speak up. "So, uh…"

"You're mad I didn't tell you about William, aren't you?" She couldn't see his face, but could guess he was surprised. "Don't think I didn't notice you spying on us." Ulrich hung his head. "Still, I should have told you about him sooner."

"Yeah, that would have been better," Ulrich said.


Aelita flew the Overboard toward the monsters, then turn right and away. "Hey there, my little monster friends. Catch me if you can!" she taunted, waving as she flew off. The two Tarantulas looked at each other, communicating through a series of grunt noises, before one moved to purse her. As the chase went on, the monster would get on it's hind legs and shoot off four lasers. Aelita dodged the attacks. However, one hit her vehicle, devirtualizing it and sending her tumbling on the ice. The Tarantula moved to catch up and Aelita got back on her feet and ran until she reached the edge of the Ice Sector. The Tarantula sat before her and prepared to fire when Odd came from the edge on the Overboard and shot at the monster with every arrow he had, hit it all over, including the Eye of XANA symbol on it's head and destroying it.

"Looks like these monsters aren't invincible after all," Odd said, pride evident in his voice. "Hey Einstein, need a reload here."

"Give me some time," Jeremy said.

"Aelita, wait for my signal, then run into the tower." Aelita nodded in affirmation as Odd raced back to the tower.


"Yu… Yumi…" Ulrich said, the intense heat getting to him. "I gotta know, are you… are you and William…"

"No," Yumi replied, also feeling the affects. "We're just… friends." She and Ulrich passed out.


"Hey ugly!" Odd shouted as he approached the Tarantula. It looked at Odd for a moment before firing at him. Odd moved out of the way on his Overboard and traveled around the tower. The Tarantula continued to bombard him with lasers.

"Ok, you've got full ammo now Odd," Jeremy said.

"Good." Odd started flying off, away from the tower, shooting at the Tarantula in order to get it to follow. It worked and the Tarantula ran after him. "Now Aelita!"

Aelita ran from her hiding spot toward the tower. The Tarantula was about to turn back, but Odd kept shooting at it. Luckily, Jeremy gave him a lot more arrows. He continued to shoot at the Tarantula, flying around it to avoid the lasers it was firing. However, one laser bolt hit the Overboard, devirtualizing it and sending Odd to the ground. He quickly got up and saw Aelita enter the tower.

Aelita moved to the center, then levitated to the second platform and accessed the interface. She entered the code 'Lyoko' and deactivated the tower.


Jeremy hit a key. "Return to the Past, now."


The group had returned from their field trip. As expected, Jeremy and Aelita got the highest grade. Surprisingly, Odd and Ulrich weren't near the bottom due to Odd's superb drawing skills. Sissi, however, got a zero due to drawing plants that Mrs. Hertz knew weren't native to the area.

"I checked out that house, the Hermitage. It's back to normal," Jeremy told the others in the courtyard.

"It's strange that I had vision of it though," Aelita said.

"And the secret passage to the factory that you knew about," Odd added.

"And the weirdest thing is, I feel like I've been there before," Aelita mentioned. "But that's impossible."

"Looks like we've got ourselves a mystery," Yumi said.

"By the way Aelita." The pink-haired girl turned to Jeremy, who pulled a present out of his bag. "This is for you."

"For me?" Jeremy nodded as he handed her the gift. She opened it to see it was a cellphone.

"Now you can call me, err, us, if we're not around." She opened the box and held out her new phone. It was pink. "I thought the color suited you."

"Thank you Jeremy." She hugged him briefly before showing the others her new phone.


Alpha: Hmm…

Jeremy: Somethin on your mind?

Alpha: Just wondering what I'd look like on Lyoko.

Jeremy: Trust me, you're better off imagining it than finding out.

Alpha: Why? Was your avatar that bad?

Jeremy: I'd rather not talk about it.

Alpha: That's Jim's line.

Jeremy: Well, it fits.

Aelita: You know, I never did see what you look like there, Jeremy.

Jeremy: And I plan to keep it that way.

Aelita: Actually, I was thinking of going there with you. Just the two of us.

Alpha: I'll just take my leave then. (Leaves)

Jeremy: I'm not going.

Aelita: Please?

Jeremy: No.

Aelita: Please?

Jeremy: No.

Aelita: (Snuggles into his arm and gives him puppy dog eyes) Pleeease?

Jeremy: (Tries to resist but fails) Fine. But just… Don't laugh.

Aelita: I'll try. (Drags him off)
