A Code Lyoko Story

Gender Bender Baby

Chapter 9

It's Show Time

This is it everyone, the last chapter of my story.

This chapter will probably be a long one on the count of our heroes have to fight a clone of William and return Ulrich to his/her original gender.

Even though our heroes have no idea what this new William is capable of, they won't back down from a fight. The fate of the world rests in their hands. Let's see how it all goes down.

The Lyoko warriors came face-to-face with what William called his son who looked just like him. Heck, how was this possible? Then William explained how the last time he kidnapped Ulrich, he infected him/her with a Xana seed that had William's DNA in it. It wasn't until recapture that the seed began to grow quickly into a baby.

Then he explained how Ulrich was the only one strong enough to handle the job of delivering his son and once that baby was out William gave him a little help in growing up. Now here he was, the child fully grown and ready to destroy the Lyoko warriors. All William had to do was give the command and our heroes would be destroyed in seconds.

However, since William was in a good mood right now, he decided to have his son give a demonstration of his powers by battling the warriors while on easy mode.

"Show them what you're capable of, but take it easy first." William told the other William.

Processing these words, the other William sprinted towards the Warriors with his sword in hand and ready to strike. He moved at super speed which didn't give the Warriors enough time to react because he striked all three of them in the blink of an eye. Causing them to lose half their life points in a single swipe.

"Whoa! Guys! All three of you lost half your life points!" Jeremy told them in fear after seeing half their life points go just like that.

"This is really serious! If that other William can take away half your life points just in one swing while not using full power; imagine what he's capable of at full power. *gulp* You guys have to be extra careful and stay on your toes. Somehow you three have to take that double down or else Xana will be unstoppable."

"Gee no kidding Einstein! How are we gonna stop him?" Odd asked.

"Try attacking him with your weapons. If this William is anything like the original then attacking will effect him." Jeremy replied.

"Okay you heard the man give this guy everything you got." Yumi said taking charge.

All three heroes shot and threw their weapons at the double with full strength and no holding back. Unfortunately, he missed, dodged, or hit back anything coming at him without breaking a sweat.

"No way! We used everything we got at him and the guy doesn't even have a scratch on him!" Odd cried out shocked at what he just saw.

"Jeremy, the double wasn't hit by anything we threw at him. He dodged it all with ease." Aelita said.

"I'll see if I can find a weak spot. In the meantime try to keep him busy and keep attacking. He can't keep avoiding everything that comes his way." Jeremy replied beginning his search on the computer.

"How are we gonna keep the double busy?" Odd asked.

"Anyway we can." Yumi said throwing one of her fans at the double who sliced it into two.

"Well not that way that's for sure." Odd pointed out.

"I'll create a distraction while you two handle William and Ulrich." Aelita said activating her wings and flying for the double.

He tried to slice and dice Aelita when she flew by him, but luckily she missed his sword. The object was to just keep the double preoccupied while trying to hit him with one of her energy balls. Meanwhile, Yumi and Odd would fight the original William and get Ulrich away from danger.

"Odd get Ulrich away from here and somewhere safe. I'll deal with William myself." Yumi told him.

"Yes sir!" Odd saluted.

The pair ran straight for William who stood holding Ulrich in his arms. Seeing as he was about to be attacked, William laid Ulrich on the ground and reached for his sword using his powers. Only Odd shot him with a few laser arrows before it could get here, and then Yumi jumped in the air and kicked William down.

Odd grabbed Ulrich and dragged him/her away from the battle and behind a large ice block that looked safe enough. It wasn't easy dragging Ulrich what with the girls fighting the Williams and Ulrich was kind of heavy so dragging to the ice block took a little while. Eventually he got the job done and was ready to join the fight.

He shot more laser arrows at both Williams, in doing ing so he only got the original by the arm and hit Aelita by accident.

"Odd be more careful! Aelita just lost twenty life points!" Jeremy cried out, upset and angry that the girl he loved got hurt by one of his friends.

"Sorry Jeremy, but this double is tough trying to hit him as it is." Odd replied Aiming to fire but being more careful this time with his aim.

"Ugh! Hiya! Jeremy! William and his double are going to devitalize us soon if we don't find a way to defeat them!" Yumi explained while fighting William.

"I'm still modifying the double to see if I can locate a weak spot. Just hang on for a little longer." Jeremy replied typing like crazy.

Somewhere, somehow, he was going to locate a weak spot on the double before he could make sushi out of his friends. With a click and a type, Jeremy kept trying to pin point a weak spot for the double on the super computer. Sadly, with every scan and click he did on the double he wasn't getting any closer to unlocking the weakness.

Could it be that Xana had made the double to not only dodge every attack coming his way, but to also never be defeated by anyone? No, no that couldn't be true. Everyone has a weakness, and it was Jeremy's job to locate that weakness and save his friends.

"Come on...Come on...There has to be some sort of weakness on this double. If I could just find it then this nightmare will be over." Jeremy said to himself as he kept searching.

All hope for finding the weakness of the double seemed hopeless. Perhaps Xana real did create another William with no way of defeating him? It sounded crazy, but it was looking to be that way.

That is until...

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

Went the supercomputer that showed a great big green plus sign on the screen. Shocked, Jeremy clicked a few buttons which revealed the answers to the problems he had. According to the data the supercomputer collected, there was a way to turn Ulrich back to normal and destroy the other William.

"Guys I found it! I finally found a way to turn Ulrich back to normal, and a way to destroy the other William." Jeremy explained happily.

"Great, let's hear it while we're still around." Odd said shooting a few laser arrows at the Williams.

"Okay, you just need to bring Ulrich into the tower so I can administer the antidote to him/her. Once Ulrich is back to normal, he/she can use his/her sword to destroy the other William." Jeremy explained.

"Easy enough, except we're occupied with the Williams." Yumi said doing back flips to avoid William's sword.

"One of you will have to make a sacrifice in order to stop the Williams." Jeremy said.

"I'll do it Jeremy, but I'll need a distraction." Yumi replied volunteering.

"I got your back Yumi." Aelita replied diving in.

"Hey William, try and shot this bird down."

Getting his attention, William ran after Aelita or he shot at her with his dark energy balls. While distracted, Yumi went to get Ulrich who laid unconcious behind the large block of ice Odd hid him/her behind.

Yumi tried to wake Ulrich up, but it was no use. Not very pleased, Yumi had to lift Ulrich over her shoulder and carry him/her too the tower. She ran as fast as she could but with the extra weight on her back it slowed her down just a tad.

Things only got worse when William saw this while trying to hit Aelita. He knew what Yumi was doing the moment he saw her carry Ulrich to the tower; therefore, to stop her from succeeding, William called his double to attack Yumi before she could get Ulrich into the tower.

Obeying his father/master, the other William ran straight at Yumi with his sword ready to strike. Odd and Aelita tried to shot him down to stop him but William hit Aelita with a dark energy ball knocking her out, and Odd's laser arrow was struck back at him devirtulizing him.

Okay this isn't turning any better than before. Gotta pick up the pace Yumi before you're next. So Yumi ran faster then before with William coming after her; she was closing in on the tower when William jumped out to strike. Before she was devirtualized, Yumi threw Ulrich into the tower in the nick of time.

"I'm starting the program for Ulrich, now." Jeremy said pushing a button that made the tower get a green glow around it.

William let out a cry of anger when he saw this after taking care of Yumi. His plan was now going to fail because Jeremy had found a way to turn Ulrich back into a guy; and if Ulrich was being transformed back to normal then he could strike down the other William. He had to stop Ulrich from doing this, or all this would have been for nothing.

Within moments Ulrich emerged from the tower looking like his old self again.

"Wow I'm back to normal." He said looking at himself.

"Good to have you back Ulrich, but right now you've got a problem to deal with." Jeremy explained.

"A problem? What pro-*gasp* No...not you..." Ulrich began until he saw the other William.

"Ulrich, you remember our son correct?" William said.

"I remember, but I wish I didn't." Ulrich replied.

"I'm afraid I can't allow you to destroy him. Only one of you will keep standing, and that someone won't be you." William told Ulrich as he walked over to the other William.

"We'll just see about that." Ulrich said pulling his swords in hand.

"Indeed we shall...Attack!" William cried out commanding the other William to spring forward and attack Ulrich.

Thus a battle between two strong competitive warriors took place. Both were very skilled and quick with a blade in hand. Swinging, striking, and dodging at each other yet neither one was scratched by the other. They were to equal to be taken down easily, but Ulrich knew that he had to take down the other William.

Ulrich did his best to strike the other William, but no dice. His moves were blocked everytime making it harder for him to hit the other William. Maybe he was trying to hard? Maybe the best way to defeat this double was by using brains instead of bronze? He had to fool the double into letting his defenses down so Ulrich could strike him right in the heart. But there was still the issue with William for he would probably see right through him.

He was going to have to make this look really convincing if he wanted to strike. So he fell on his knees, dropped his swords, and hung his head down in defeat.

"Okay...you win...I surrender." He said in defeat.

"WHAT?! WHAT THE HELL?!" Odd cried out hearing this from in the factory by the supercomputer with Yumi and Jeremy.

"Odd shush, I'm sure there's a good reason Ulrich's doing this." Yumi said.

"Yeah, he's being stupid and giving up to William." Odd replied.

"It could be a trap, but let's keep listening to see." Jeremy added in.

Odd was about to say something else but got cut off when Yumi put her hand over his mouth to shut him up.

Then the three listened in on the conversation between Ulrich and William.

Ulrich had confessed to giving up, but William wasn't buying it.

"What are you trying to do? Is this some sort of trick?" He asked not amused.

"No, trick William I give up. I can't defeat your double let alone even hit him. He's far to powerful and stronger and faster than I. So I'm giving up to save myself the humiliation." Ulrich explained.

"That's it? That's your excuse?" William asked still unamused. He wasn't going to fall for Ulrich's little trick that easily.

"I'm serious William, I surrender to you and your double. I'm hopeless to try and fight him without losing half my life points in one swing. So...I'm giving up, you win." Ulrich explained sounding serious.

William just crossed his arms and kepts that same unamused look on his face while looking at Ulrich. He still wasn't buying what Ulrich was explaining.

"Come on, what do I have to do to prove I'm serious?" Ulrich asked.

"You want to prove you're being serious?" William asked.

"Yes."

"Hm...alright, I want you to walk to the edge and fall into the digital sea."

GASP!

That's suicide!

Falling into the digital sea would mean Ulrich would be gone forever.

But he had to prove he was being serious and keep up the act. Standing up, Ulrich turned facing the edge and began to walk. As the others were watching this they grew very worried and scared. If Ulrich was seriously going to throw himself into the digital sea then that was it for him.

Odd was yelling through the headset on Jeremy's face to tell Ulrich to stop; Yumi couldn't bare to watch this; and Jeremy had to push Odd away from his face before speaking To the two of them.

"Guys look I know what Ulrich's doing seems crazy, but there's bond to be a logical explanation to it." Jeremy explained.

"It's not just crazy Jeremy it's stupid and suicide." Yumi added looking at him.

"I know, but we have to wait and see just what Ulrich is up to. Plus, Aelita is still on Lyoko, unconcious, but if she wakes up in time she can stop Ulrich before he goes through with this." Jeremy explained.

"You're right...we can't just jump to conclusions like this. Let's just watch and see what happens." Yumi said making a final decision.

"Okay, but I still think he's lost it." Odd said.

The three watched the supercomputer screen as they saw Ulrich's arrow move closer to the edge. Hopefully, he knew what he was doing and wasn't going to jump.

Each step Ulrich took was a step closer to gaining William's trust. If he played his cards right once near the edge would Ulrich use super sprint and slice that double into pieces. He just had to keep pulling off this stunt so William wouldn't get suspicious.

Once close to the edge Ulrich stood still and looked down. There after a long hundred or more foot drop was the digital sea. A huge vast sea of digital data that flowed all over Lyoko and the network. If Ulrich jumped into that sea he'd become one with the data.

"I have to stop that double, but I can't jump into the digital sea." Ulrich thought to himself.

He looked over his shoulder too where Aelita was still laying unconcious. He hoped that she would wake up soon, but until then he had to keep stalling. Though how could he keep stalling when he was told to jump?

"What are you waiting for? Jump!" William told him.

"Yeah, yeah I know it's just I uh...I have a fear of heights." Ulrich replied trying to hide the fear in his voice.

"I don't care if you can't swim you're jumping." William told him.

"Alright just give me a minute." Ulrich said looking back at the sea.

"Jeremy, if you can hear me do something."

"Hang on Ulrich, I'm sending your vehicle right now." Jeremy replied typing away to bring out the vehicle.

Within moments Ulrich's flying motor bike came out in front of him. Ulrich wasted no time jumping onto then bike and taking off. William got angry when he saw Ulrich take off like that, but then he got confused when he saw Ulrich coming right at him.

But what William didn't know was Ulrich wasn't coming for him, he was coming for the double. Speed was picking up and swords at the ready, Ulrich watied until he was close enough and...

He stood up on his bike, jumped off of it, did a flip in the air, came down and...

STRIKE!

Ulrich striked down the double with his swords right on the stomach before landing. William screamed out a 'No!' As he watched the double explode like all the other monsters. Apparently a surprise attack does work well if properly played out.

"You destroyed him! You ruined everything!" William cried out in anger at Ulrich.

He then went charging at Ulrich with his sword to strike him down, but was stopped and hit back by an energy ball. When Ulrich turned around he saw Aelita standing in all her glory and walking over.

"Don't even think about it." She simply said.

"Fine, you win this round, but I'll be back." William said before disappearing with his shadow powers.

"Thanks Aelita, hey Jeremy it's over." Ulrich said.

"Nice work you two, I'll bring you both back." Jeremy replied typing on the keyboard and bringing the pair back home.

~At the Factory~

The rest of the gang waited on Ulrich and Aelita to return and in moments they did. Yumi was the first to greet Ulrich with a big hug sending a blush on Ulrich's face.

"Welcome back Ulrich. Good to see you as your old self again." She said happily.

"It's good to be my old self again. Though I wish I wasn't still wearing girl clothes." Ulrich said blushing once he saw he was still in the clothes he previously wore as a girl.

"Hey the important thing is you're back to being a dude and that double is gone. Though quick question, what was it like giving birth?" Odd asked.

"Unless you want me to punch you in the gut you won't ask that question again." Ulrich said in a threatening tone making Odd back off.

"Let's just please never speak of me being a girl or pregnant ever again."

"Can I think about you being a girl?" Odd asked eating a smack to the back of his head from Yumi.

"Ow!"

"Shut up Odd." Yumi said.

After that the gang headed back to school until the time came when they were needed on Lyoko again. To fight Xana, William, and all the monsters to keep the world safe.

The End~!
