Yumi's POV:

"What are you looking at?" I asked Ulrick. He was supposed to be getting ready for work while the kids got ready for school. "Why is the Lyoko Project e-mailing you?"

"…Because Willem is missing." Ulrick said, not looking up. "They want us to take the assignment."

"Just because there's a missing agent?" I asked. "We're retired! Don't they have other agents to handle this?"

"He's not the only person missing. Believe me, if it was only him, I think they would send anybody…"

"Wait a minute…you didn't say yes to this, did you? Because I know that since the government got involved everything's been more organized & there are more people to work on Lyoko now…"

"Yumi, I have no intention of taking any assignments." Ulrick said, turning to face me. "We just keep getting e-mails because we were considered to be among the best agents."

I was about to reply when I heard the sound of something falling on the floor. Hearing both Lara & Kyle start to argue over whose fault it was convinced me that something had broken.

Again.


"Do we have to watch this?" Lara asked.

"You guys are the ones who broke the remote control." I said.

"I like it." Kyle said.

"It's for little kids!" Lara said.

"But it's cool!"

Tuning out the argument, but keeping an eye on them so nothing else got broken, I turned to Ulrick. "I still think it's sort of creepy that Sissy now hosts a TV show for preschoolers."

"I think it's sort of creepy that Kyle loves it so much…" Ulrick said quietly.

"Guys! When the action figure comes out, can I get it?" Kyle asked us.

"What?" I asked.

"For the new character. When his action figure comes out, can I get it?"

On the screen, Sissy was introducing a new mutant friend to the other characters on the islnd. There was something familiar about him…

When I figured it out, I glanced at Ulrick. I could tell we were thinking the same thing…

It looked exactly like Willem.


Looks like things are about to get interesting, doesn't it?
