Chapter 1: The New Kid's Marine Strength
Link stood in front of the grounds of Kadic Jr.High, a slight tad nervous. He had never been in school before. A man named Jim had just given him piece of paper with his dorm room number. “Man I thought I didn't know what fear meant boy was I ever wrong.” Link said slinging his pack more comfortably over his shoulder. Link found his room and knocked. “Oh hey my name's Jeremy, you must be the new kid here.” Jeremy said helping Link with his luggage. “Well Link, from the looks I've seen in the girl's eyes you're the new hot tie in their eyes.” Jeremy said. Link gave him a quizzical stare. “Basically it means they've fallen in love with you at first sight.” Jeremy explained. Link nodded in understanding. Just then a girl with short black hair, a black shirt and wearing black jeans entered the room. “Oh hello Yumi, this is my new roommate Link, Link this is Yumi Ishiyama.” Jeremy said introducing the girl. Link took her hand and kissed it in respect. Link always thought a woman should be treated with respect and dignity. Yumi gave a small blush on her creamy cheeks. “Nice to meet you Link, I see that every single girl in the school has attached their eyes to your face and apparently in Niome's case your butt, just so you know to not to let them squeeze your tush.” Yumi said looking at a girl with long black hair and wearing a pleated mini-skirt who was staring at Link's backside. Link turned 9 different colors of red as he looked at Niome. Niome waved her fingers at Link and blew him a kiss. Just then a brown haired boy and a blond haired boy wearing lots of purple and had a purple splotch in his hair came in. “Link, this is Ulrich, and this is Odd we still don't know if he's human.” Jeremy said smiling at Odd who was scowling at him. Ulrich shook Link's hand and Odd gave Link a mocking bow. Link walked to Italian with Yumi, since Link could speak many different languages. Link sat right beside Yumi since she was one of the best students in the class. “ Don't worry Link, school can be fun, but the lunches aren't from this Earth.” Yumi said grinning smugly. Link chuckled slightly and became quiet when the teacher entered the room. When the teacher Ms. Antolina introduced Link, every girl stared at Link's deep blue eyes, long pointy ears, and long blond hair. Link felt very embarrassed as he stood up during class and recited a sentence in Italian which he did flawlessly. At the end of class Link went to Math while Yumi went elsewhere. “Jeremy may I sit next to you?” Link asked shyly. Jeremy nodded smiling and Link put his things down on a desk next to Jeremy. The teacher of the class asked Link to come up to the board to do a math problem and Link got the right answer quickly. Everyone began to clap, which made the teenage Hylian blush. “Link you must be a clone of Jeremy to be this intelligent.” Odd said shaking his head at Link's impressive IQ. Jeremy took this smart alack comment as a compliment. Link grinned at them both. Link walked with his new friends to Physics with Mrs. Hertz. “Beware ye Link that enters this horrid place, the old crow here never stops talking.” Odd said. Link looked at Odd strangely and sat down next to Jeremy. “Well well, hello good looking my name is Sissy, nice to meet you new boy.” Sissy said eying Link. “Hello Sissy my name's Link, a pleasure to meet you.” Link said kissing Sissy's hand politely. “Bad move.” Odd said under his breath. Ulrich began to hum a funeral song, while Jeremy stood appalled at Link's mistake. Sissy felt her heart jumping a thousand miles per second as Link's lips met the back of her right hand. Link sat down as Ms. Hertz came in. “We have a new student today, his name is Link, welcome to Kadic Academy Link.” Ms. Hertz said looking at Link. Link smiled slightly embarrassed and began taking notes as Ms. Hertz began her usual ongoing speeches on Physics. After Physics, Link, Ulrich, Odd and Jeremy walked to the cafeteria and sat down waiting for Yumi. “Well good new bad news, good news is Sissy won't be stalking you anymore Ulrich, bad news her new victim is Link, curse his looks.” Odd said bowing his blond spike down in mock mourning. Link looked at his friends wondering what they meant by that. Just as he was pondering this strange fact, Yumi plopped down next to him. “Hey guys, has our new friend met the monster Sissy?” Yumi asked sarcastically. “Yeah and by some otherworldly power survived.” Odd said his mouth full of food. “She seems nice to me.” Link said shrugging. Ulrich couldn't believe what his new friend had just said. Just as lunch was about to end, a shadow passed over their heads. Link shot like lightning and looked above them for whatever the shadow was. “What on Earth was that shadow thing?” Odd asked shaking slightly. Link felt his heart turn to stone as if he was remembering something bad that had happened long ago. Yumi looked at Link strangely and got up for Gym class that they all had together. Even as Link left he was still suspicious of that very strange shadow. “If this is the same thing as last time, I shall show those monsters no pity.” Link growled with great hatred. Link and everyone else stood outside ready to play soccer. “Hey Link, how about you and Yumi against me and Ulrich and you can have Jeremy as goalie, we don't need one.” Odd said in a challenging tone. “I accept your terms, however in the words of the heroic General Mormick from the last battle for the Hylian kingdom, know thine foe well or thee shall be slain before ye know it.” Link said. Ulrich and Link faced each other with the eye of the tiger look in their eyes. When Jim blew his whistle, Link kicked the ball between Ulrich's legs and Link slid under Ulrich and sped after the ball. Odd attempted an intercept but all he got was a mouth full of grass. In no time at all, Link and Yumi had scored fifteen goals and Ulrich and Odd hadn't gotten one. After class Ulrich approached Link. “I have a little saying for like you did for me Link, I'll be back.” Ulrich said doing an impression of the Terminator. Link smiled and patted Ulrich on the back sympathetically. As Link went back to his room the same strange shadow passed overhead. “Jeremy stay here, I think I know this shadow.” Link said looking up above. Jeremy nodded and hid behind a corner. Link looked up where the shadow was apparently looking at Link expectantly. Link whistled and drew the shadow out from it's hiding spot. When Jeremy saw the mysterious shadow, he felt his eyes pop out of his head in shock. The shadow was a monster with human form, gray skin, long claws on its hands and feet and most horrific of all, it had ten eyes. The creature tried to pounce Link, however Link grabbed it by the throat and crushed its windpipe. Link threw the shadow out side where no one could find it. “Link, what in the name of Albert Einstein was that thing?” Jeremy asked horrified. “I'll tell you, thought I doubt severely that you'll believe my gut wrenching tale.” Link said his tone icy. Link sat on his bed in front of Jeremy and told him the reason how he knew that horrid monster that he had slain. “Whoa man, you went one-hundred and fifty years into the future as part of a Special Ops UAC Marine team, went to Mars to answer some disturbing distress calls, and fight all these weird monsters and messed human experiments and you're still sane, the human mind is stunning.” Jeremy said in awe after Link told him the creepy story. “Link, there is something you need to know about me, Odd, Ulrich and Yumi, keep this secret.” Jeremy said seriously. Link nodded and Jeremy told Link all about the virtual world known as Lyoko, about a physco computer virus called Xana, and about the virtual girl Aelita. “Whoa, Xana sounds a few grapes short of a fruit salad.” Link said after Jeremy had told him everything. Jeremy nodded in agreement and grabbed his mobile phone and called Ulrich and Yumi. “Well guys, he told me his secret and Xana summoned an Imp creature from Link's past and he killed it so I decided that Link should know and besides his Marine Special Ops skills will be very helpful in defeating Xana, okay bye.” Jeremy said hanging up. “Well Link, you're a part of our Lyoko team, and it seems Xana wanted you to die so he summoned that Imp, yet I guess he didn't know that you've killed hundreds of those freaks, so if you're a member of the team Xana'll be twice as mad, which I think you'll enjoy making Xana angry.” Jeremy said smiling. “I accept your invitation to your Lyoko fighting team Jeremy, no one messes with my friends and gets away with it.” Link said shaking Jeremy's hand. Jeremy smiled at Link and went to get some soda. “Here you go Link root beer.” Jeremy said throwing him a can. Link popped the can open and guzzled it all down. “You drink soda faster than Odd does, now that's just plain weird.” Jeremy said chuckling. Link laughed as well like he and Jeremy were old friends. The next morning Link woke up early while Jeremy was still sleeping. “What's Jeremy talking about?” Link wondered as he listened to Jeremy talk in his sleep. “HEY JEREMY GET UP!” Link yelled into Jeremy's ear. “What, did I miss something?” Jeremy asked. Link laughed and helped Jeremy up. Link and Jeremy met Odd and Ulrich in the cafeteria. Odd was pigging out as was normal according to Jeremy. “Well Link, since you're part of our special group you should know that Sissy doesn't exactly like us so if she tries a prank, it's natural.” Odd said grinning. Link smiled and Jeremy heard a beeping sound and slipped on an ear piece. “Guys, Aelita said Xana's activated a tower, let's move.” Jeremy said rushing to the clearing to the manhole that led to the old factory. “All right, Yumi'll be here momentarily, you're headed for the Polar Region, transfer Ulrich, transfer Odd, transfer Link, scanner Ulrich, scanner Odd, scanner Link, virtulization.” Jeremy said typing fast on the computer. When they arrived in Lyoko Odd and Ulrich looked at Link impressed. Link wore a black armor jumpsuit with a jet black armor vest, black boots and wore an ear piece communicator. “All right Link, there's an armory that's specially for you every time you go into Lyoko and only you can use the weapons inside.” Jeremy said reading Link's information card. Link, Ulrich and Odd approached the door to the weapons stash and Link punched in the door code. “Whoa baby!” Odd said in shock when he saw the loads of weapons. Link picked up an MG-88 Enforcer machine gun and a voice came from the gun. “Handle I.D. Man slayer.” the gun said as Link's hands gripped the gun handle. “So I take it that Man slayer is your nickname right?” Jeremy asked. “That would be right, I do my job very well.” Link said grinning. “So are those guns voice activated or something?” Ulrich asked looking at Link's machine gun. “Pretty much, it also tells you of incoming targets and tells you when you need to reload.” Link said. “Neat.” Ulrich said patting the gun. Link grinned in agreement. “Yumi's coming in just a second, Link she'll be surprised to see you.” Jeremy said. Link nodded acknowledging Jeremy's comment. Just then Yumi plopped down next to Ulrich. “Hey Yumi, I'm on the team now.” Link said smiling happily. “That's good, with your weaponry, Xana won't know what hit him.” Yumi said using her fan to cool herself. “Hello, is this someone new, I haven't met him before.” Aelita said looking at Link's Marine Special Ops armor. “Hello there, you must be Aelita, my name is Link, I am also called Man slayer, it's a pleasure to meet one of your beauty.” Link said bowing. Aelita giggled as Link kissed her hand. “Hey hornets, 3 o'clock!” Odd yelled pointing above Aelita's head. Link looked through the scope on his MG-88 Enforcer machine gun and let loose a barrage of gun fire destroying every last hornet. “Nice shooting tex.” Odd said clapping his cat paws. “Hey Link, how much ammo you got left in that?” Yumi asked. “Well, it holds 60 bullets per magazine and the maximum ammo capacity is 540, I've got 32 shots left in this magazine, so I should be fine for a bit.” Link said checking the side of his gun. They all proceeded forward north for a little before a mega-tank rolled out to greet them all. “Aelita, take cover!” Link shouted bringing his scope up to his eye. Aelita nodded and ducked behind an ice hill. Link waited until the mega-tank opened its armor exposing the eye in the middle of the red iron pipes that held it together. “See you in the after life.” Link said as he pulled the trigger. Link fired the remaining 32 shots in the magazine, which ate threw the mega-tanks armor as if it was jell-o. “Reload.” his gun said. Link grabbed another magazine from his ammo supply belt and popped it into the space in the gun. “That is a very cool gun.” Yumi said smiling at Link. Link grinned in agreement and they all continued towards the activated tower. Just as they saw the tower in front of them, 4 blocks barred their way. “Go ahead, you need to waste some different gun ammo anyhow.” Yumi said. Link nodded concluding that he should use his favorite gun. “Back in a second.” Link said heading back to the supply room. “I wonder what destructive gun Link's going to show us?” Odd asked batting his tail back and forth. Ulrich shrugged in wonder. Link came back carrying a huge gun. “What kind of gun is that?” Yumi asked pointing at the huge black metal gun. Link pulled the trigger. The result was tremendous. A blue energy blob rushed forth from the weapon and a blue flash ensued and all 4 blocks were disintegrated in a blast. “AWESOME!” Odd yelled dancing around. Link looked at his gun and kissed it. “What gun is that?” Yumi asked staring. “Well as Jeremy'll explain I was once part of a UAC Marine Special Ops team and I was forced to kill our leader, won't go into details but Sarge had acquired a gun know as the BFG 9000, it shoots a super charged energy blob that destroys any enemy target within 15 meters of its blast radius.” Link said patting the death inducing gun lovingly. “Me like.” Odd said. Aelita entered the activated tower and pressed the interface and the tower was deactivated.
End Chapter 1
Chapter 2: Christmas Cheer
Over the next few weeks the weather had turned cold. Link had started feeling at home. Of course, every girl in the entire school had gotten a huge crush on him. Link was beginning to suspect that even Yumi, who was a tomboy, was also falling for him. “So Link, doing anything special for the Christmas holidays?” Jeremy asked who was in the factory with Link working on another materialization program for Aelita. “What exactly is Christmas Jeremy?” Link asked turning his head to one side like Aelita usually did. “You don't know about Christmas, oh you'll love it here I'll explain.” Jeremy exclaimed turning his chair facing Link. After Jeremy told Link everything about the holiday know as Christmas Link felt his heart leaping. “ Wow, Christmas sounds like so much fun.” Link sighed combing his bangs out of his face. “It sure is Link, and it's coming up very soon, just watch out for any girl carrying mistletoe.” Jeremy said smiling. “What''s mistletoe?” Link asked interested. “Well, when two men stand under mistletoe they hug, however if a man and woman are under mistletoe they kiss on the lips.” Jeremy said. Link felt his face drop, which made Jeremy burst into hysterical laughter. “Well I know what'll happen tomorrow at school with every girl.” Link shaking his head in disgust for his good looks. Jeremy nodded agreeing with Link and returned to his work. Link decided to head back to school due to extreme boredom. As he neared the entrance to Kadic, Link saw a girl with a very deep tan leaning against a tree. “ Oh hello, do you go to Kadic as well?” Link asked politely. “Hey, my name's Samantha, Sam for short, yeah I do go here.” Sam said with a flirting look in her eyes. Link could feel a fluttering sensation in his stomach as Sam looked over his lean and muscular frame. “Hey look up above your head, I've put a surprise on the tree limb.” Sam said pointing above his head. Link looked up and felt his face fall. Up above in the tree was a small bit of mistletoe. “Oh crud.” Link moaned. “Okay now lover boy pucker up.” Sam said. Link was not one to say no to a woman, so he puckered his lips together. Sam smiled and leaned forward. Link felt Sam kiss him with considerable force. Sam moaned as she pressed Link against the tree. Just as Sam put her tounge into Link's mouth, Yumi found them kissing. “LINK!” Yumi yelled. Link and Sam separated panting. “Yumi, I didn't want to kiss her, but it was the mistletoe I swear.” Link said, trying to reason with the angered Yumi. Yumi gave Link the evil eye, but then for some odd reason, smiled. I just can't stay mad at you, I forgive you.” Yumi said giving Link a hug. As Yumi left, Link looked at her turning his head to one side. “Man girls are weird.” Link said scratching the back of his head. “Well, guess I'll see you around handsome.” Sam said kissing Link on his cheek. Link stared at her strangely and went back to his dorm room. Link sat down on his bed and pulled out a black leather book and began to read, though his reading skills were a tad on the rusty side since he was a frequent traveler. “Hey hey hey Link, I'm going to take a wild guess here and say that Jeremy is at the factory working on his materialization program for Aelita, so am I right?” Odd asked flopping down next to Link. “ Yep he is, I guess he'll be there for some time, hey by the way, do you know a girl by the name of Sam?” Link asked putting down his book. “Yeah I do, I was thinking about asking her to the Christmas dance, why”? Odd asked. “Well, she surprised me with mistletoe and I had to kiss her, it's the gentleman within me.” Link said in disgust. Odd looked at Link, shocked beyond all human knowledge. “WHAT, YOU KISSED HER, LINK SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE MY GIRLFRIEND AFTER THE DANCE I WAS GONNA ASK HER, NOW YOU'VE RUINED IT!!” Odd yelled angrily. Odd ran out the door and Link thought he saw Odd crying. “Oh my sweet Farore what have I done?” Link asked himself in complete self disgust. Link put his head in his hands ashamed of himself for what he had done to his newfound friends. Link began to think of ways that he could make it up to Odd. Link then heard the dorm door open. “Hey Link, I've got something for you, me, Jeremy, Odd, and Yumi decided to get this for you so that we could stay a few steps ahead of old Xana.” Ulrich said handing him a box. Link looked at the box curiously and opened it. “Oh wow!” Link yelled happily. Inside the box was a green cell phone. “ All you need now is a ring tone and you're all set.” Ulrich said thinking. Link nodded in agreement and went on Jeremy's laptop looking for ring tones. “I found one real neat.” Link said excitedly. Ulrich leaned on the chair to listen to Link's selected ring tone. Link clicked on the play button and the Imperial March song played. “I think that Jeremy'll really like that ring tone, he's always reading Star Wars books.” Ulrich said clapping in approval. Link smiled and laughed at that and downloaded the ring tone to his cell phone. Link thought that he'd send Odd a text message telling him that he was sorry for kissing Sam. Link sent the message and waited for a reply. About 5 minuets later Link's Imperial March ring tone played alerting him of the reply from Odd. “Ah that's such a relief, Odds forgiven me for kissing Sam, he also admits that it was mistletoe so he sees no way that I could've refused.” Link sighed happily. Ulrich raised an eyebrow at Link. “Oh I'll explain.” Link said seeing Ulrich's quizzical look. Link told Ulrich about what had occurred between him and Sam under the mistletoe. “Wow, you kissed Sam before Odd, he's been fantasizing about that for weeks.” Ulrich said smiling. Link gave a small grin and started reading his book again. After about an hour Ulrich and Link went to the cafeteria for dinner. As Ulrich and Link got their trays of food, Sissy came over to Link. “Hello Link dearest, look I've got mistletoe.” Sissy said in a singsong tone wiggling the mistletoe above his head. “Alright Sissy I'll kiss you, I'm to nice to hurt a girl's feelings.” Link sighed. Sissy felt that Christmas had come 10 times at Link's response. Sissy put on some lipstick and puckered up. Link leaned forward and gave Sissy a small peck on the lips. Sissy felt her heart sore when Link's lips met hers in that small peck. When they broke, Sissy started dancing about in shear joy. “Link, do you need medical attention?” Ulrich asked. “Medic, we need a medic now people!” Odd said from behind Ulrich. Ulrich began to make ambulance sounds. Odd, Ulrich and Link started laughing. Their laughter was contagious and soon the whole cafeteria was cracking up. “Hey guys, is it true Link, did you actually kiss Sissy under mistletoe?” Jeremy asked sitting down next to Link. Link nodded, which made Jeremy gasp in amazement. “So, just out of shear curiosity, is Sissy a good kisser?” Ulrich asked eating some mashed potatoes. “Well believe it or nor, she was actually a knock-out kisser.” Link said in thought. Odd dropped his fork in shock and amazement. Jeremy and Ulrich looked at each other slightly afraid. “ You are aware that when Yumi finds out and she will, due to the fact that women have a sort of chain of communication system that they can all hear about anything, that she will beat you so bad that even a puzzle genius won't be able to put you back together, you do know that don't you?” Jeremy asked looking at Link seriously. “Well now that you mention it, I'M SCARED OUT OF MY WITS THAT I KNOW YUMI'S GONNA TURN ME INTO A PUDDLE OF BLOOD AND TWITCHING FLESH!!” Link yelled in pure fright. “Jeremy, as of right now your talking privileges are over.” Ulrich said. Jeremy nodded wishing he hadn't said anything. “Hey Link, just in case worse comes to worse, you should make out your will.” Odd suggested. “Yeah you're right for once Odd, I had better make a will and fast.” Link said quickly eating his chicken and baked potato. “Odd you're no longer allowed to speak until further notice.” Ulrich said glaring at Odd. Odd shrugged as if he didn't know what he had done wrong. Link ran smack into Yumi landing on top of her. “Well, this is an awkward position.” Yumi said blushing darkly. “Sorry, Yumi I don't approve of lying or of putting things off, so I'm going to tell you this now, I kissed Sissy under some mistletoe.” Link said putting up his arms in self defense. “Oh well, you're just nice, it's okay, oh damn.” Yumi said looking up above her. Link looked up and saw a cluster of mistletoe. “That damn accursed plant, let's do it and get it over with.” Yumi said . Link nodded confirming that they should do it quickly. “You can do the kissing Yumi.” Link said politely. Yumi smiled grimly and puckered her lips together and leaned forward. When Yumi's lips met Link's, their minds were shocked by the warmth and sweet taste of each other's lips. Yumi slid her tounge into Link's mouth and licked his tounge with her own. Link let out a loud moan as did Yumi. They parted breathing hard. “Link, you're a very hot kisser, your lips are sweet and taste sexy.” Yumi said licking her lips. Link blushed embarrassedly. Yumi giggled at Link's blushing face and headed for her house. Link felt a strange fluttering sensation in his stomach as he saw Yumi's back go further into the evening shade. “I think that I just might be in love.” Link whispered to himself as he felt his lips. Link went back to the cafeteria and sat next to Odd. “Well, by the dazed look in his eyes I do believe that it's safe to assume that, Yumi beat Link senseless and then had her way with him.” Odd said looking at Link's dreamy look in his eyes. Ulrich smacked Odd on the head, but ironically he hurt his own hand in the processes. Jeremy burst out into hysterical laughter and fell off of the table and rolled on the floor laughing himself silly. Odd glared at Jeremy and smacked him playfully on the shoulder. Which turned into a playful tumble. Link, for some reason he didn't know, got involved in the playful fight. “Hey Odd, heads up.” Link said grabbing his books. Link brought his school books down upon Odds' head, making the purple loving weirdo yelp. “Hey Odd one question, where are you from, I mean originally?” Link asked panting slightly. “Well, I was born and raised in New Orleans, so I'm Cajun.” Odd said with pride. “So I guess being Cajun is what made you so goofy and love purple so much.” Ulrich said grinning. “Well, that may be true, and in my Cajun family everyone is a pretty good cook, but apparently that gene skipped me, last time I tried to cook, my mom's oven burst into flame.” Odd said thinking back to his home in New Orleans. “Well, if we take Cooking class, we shouldn't let Odd do the cooking, fortunately I am a very excellent chef, I've cooked for a friend named Saria, and she loved my mushroom soup, she's a vegetarian.” Link said with pride for his cooking skills. “So, after the soup dinner did you two start making out?” Odd asked smiling. “Making out, what's that exactly?” Link asked turning his head to one side. “Well, Odd would say something sick and dumb, but in the simplest terms it's kissing passionately.” Jeremy said adjusting his glasses. “That's kind like what Sam and I did under the mistletoe earlier today.” Link said thinking back to the early in the afternoon. “Woo boy Link, you're turning out to be a real ladies man.” Ulrich said making a wolf howl. Odd and Jeremy joined in on the howl as did Link. “So, who's the alpha male of this wolf pack?” Odd asked putting his tray up. “Well I should since I'm the tallest and most well built, that's how pack leaders are chosen in Warg packs back in my home of Hyrule.” Link said wisely. “What are Wargs exactly?” Jeremy asked. “Well Jeremy, they're the mockery of of the wolf, they can outrun a horse in a sprint, and their fur is dense and ruff, plus their fangs are yellow and long.” Link said thinking back to a book that he had read. “Wow Wargs sound very deadly.” Odd said folding his arms and looking at Link. Link nodded and he and Jeremy went back to their room. “So Link, tomorrow is Christmas eve, and that night is when we get our presents, I bet your excited.” Jeremy said smiling. “You're exactly right Jeremy, I can't wait to give out presents, I feel that it's better to give than to receive, but that's just me.” Link said happily.” “ Well Link, I'm very proud to hear you say that, it's very mature.” Jeremy said smiling at Link. Link blushed sheepishly. Jeremy laughed at Link's blush, and Link whacked Jeremy with his pillow, which ignited a huge pillow fight. At the end of the battle, Jeremy was leaning on his bed panting, Link, however was fine, Jeremy hadn't hit him once. “It's not fair that you're a Marine Link, it's like a cheat or something.” Jeremy said catching his breath. “Well, I guess you're right, or not.” Link taunted laughing so much that he hit the floor and got into a little tumble with Jeremy. Link ended the tussle by taking Jeremy's glasses. “Hey give those back!” Jeremy yelled laughing. “You want them, then reach for them.” Link said putting Jeremy's glasses up high on his cabinet. Jeremy jumped up and down trying to get his glasses. “Well Jer, looks like you won't be able to pass any tests for quite awhile now.” Link said smugly. Jeremy glared at Link playfully and attempted to smack him on the head, but missed by a mile. “Very nice Jeremy, but even a zombie could've hit me, but in reality a zombie couldn't hit me since it would be dead before it could get within 9 meters of me.” Link said thinking back to his days as a UAC Special Ops Marine. “I guess you're right, but there's one thing that your Marine training didn't include, and that is how to avoid your adoring female friends.” Jeremy said trying to see where on the cabinet his glasses were. “Too true, I guess the gentleman in me won' t allow me to break a girl's heart, and my friend Saria once said that I don't see people as pretty or ugly, I see what's in their very souls.” Link said giving Jeremy his glasses back. “You know Link, this Saria is right more than she knows, you truly do see what's in a persons' soul, an example of this is that you don't tease Sissy like Ulrich and Odd do, and though I don't like her much either, I think its very nice of you, and yet it's very creepy.” Jeremy said adjusting his glasses. Link shrugged at this and grabbed a black leather book and started to read. “So Link, what's that book about anyhow?” Jeremy asked looking at the Hylian text. “Oh it's a great tale, it's about how the Hylians fought against huge hordes of Uruk-Hai, an Uruk- Hai is a breed of Orcs, but they're bigger, stronger, can run longer distances without resting, and can resist the light of the sun, anyhow in this part that I'm at the great stratified Commander Lenoncer killed 1,000 Uruk- Hai by order of a very well organized sneak attack, Lenoncer and his 500 troops hid in the pitch darkness disguised as bushes and when the Uruks passed by, the archers fired a huge volley of arrows killing every Uruk, including the captain which sent the rest of the Uruk-Hai into dissaray since they had lost their chief, you see Jer in every Orc group or Uruk-Hai band the leader keeps order and if the leader is killed the rest don't know what to do and then they're easier to bring down.” Link explained reading aloud. “Very impressive strategy, Lenoncer was a very intelligent man.” Jeremy said approvingly. Link nodded and read on. After a few hours of reading Link went to the bathrooms to take a nice hot shower. “One thing Link, don't let any girls grab your bath robe and make you walk around bare butt naked to get it back.” Jeremy said smiling. “You hush or I'll snap your neck in 20 different ways.” Link said giving Jeremy a threatening death glare. Jeremy cocked an eyebrow. Link smiled and walked down the hall. Link took off his clothes and turned on the water. “Ah, that feels so nice.” Link sighed as the steaming water fell upon his face. After he was done Link put his green forest robe and went down the hall. As Link went down the hall, quietly so as to not wake anyone, Sam came down in a black and red robe that was slipping off her left shoulder exposing a small bit of her left breast. “Oh, hey handsome, showers are a great relaxing tool.” Sam said letting the robe fall even more. Link was about to reply when he saw half of Sam's left breast. “Uh Sam, not to be rude but your left.. breast is showing.” Link said his face turning nine different shades of red. “Yeah I know, I'm letting the breast and nipple get some fresh air, ooh it hurts a bit, would massage it for me?” Sam asked pulling down the robe so that her left breast was completely exposed. “SAM, make yourself decent!” Link yelled covering his eyes. “Link, I'm proud of the breasts I've been given.” Sam said blowing her left nipple. When Sam blew upon her nipple, she felt a shiver of pleasure course through her body and she let out a soft moan. “Please Link, suck my left tit, I won't tell.” Sam said giving Link the puppy dog pout. Unfortunately for Link, the puppy dog pout was one of his few weaknesses. “Alright, let's do it quick.” Link said lowering himself to the level of Sam's left nipple. Sam smiled and grabbed his long ears, preparing herself. Link put his soft pink lips over the nipple and sucked gently. Sam let out a loud moan. “Thanks a lot Link, see you tomorrow.” Sam said pulling up her robe. Link went back to his room quickly. “What happened Link, you look like Death worn over, no offense.” Jeremy said looking at Link's pale face. “Jeremy, please promise me you won't tell Odd what I'm about to tell you please?” Link asked. Jeremy nodded. Link told Jeremy about how Sam showed Link her entire left breast and how she asked him to suck the nipple and that he did. After Link finished, Jeremy's cheeks felt like they were going to turn to ash. “Whoa mama, I can't believe you sucked on Sam's left nipple, you've got guts.” Jeremy said looking at Link awkwardly. Link nodded and whispered that he wished he was n' t so handsome. The next morning Link woke early to find Jeremy talking with Aelita. “Morning Prince Ladies Man, sleep well?” Jeremy asked smiling at Link. “I actually slept without any nightmares, which if I remember correctly is a new thing for me, considering all the things I've seen.” Link said. “Oh and Link I feel I should tell you that the right side of your hair is sticking straight out.” Jeremy said chuckling. Link looked in Jeremy's glasses. “You got a spare comb Jer?” Link asked. Jeremy reached into his drawer and handed Link a comb. Link thanked him and straightened out the army of tangles. “Now you look sharp and ready to win a womans' heart, which ironically you have already.” Jeremy said smiling. Link gave Jeremy a playful shove. “Hey Link, I was going to ask Jeremy this but maybe you'll have a different answer, what' s it like to love someone?” Aelita asked turning her head to one side like she always did. “Well, to love someone you must be willing to make some compromises, you may feel a strange fluttering feeling in your stomach when you're near someone that you love, that's my opinion on knowing how to feel love.” Link explained. “Wow Link, very deep you could be a philosopher if you wanted.” Jeremy said impressed. Link smiled modestly. “Jeremy's right Link, your responses are very intellectual.” Aelita said smiling sweetly at Link. Link felt his temperature rise as Aelita smiled at him. Jeremy continued his conversation with Aelita while Link grabbed some clothes and got dressed. “So Jer, we have the whole weekend off, my instincts tell me Sissy convinced her father to do that, very nice of her, I have no ideas on what to do.” Link said sitting down on the computer desk. “Mm, I don't what to do either.” Jeremy said stroking his chin in thought. Link and Jeremy sat in their room thinking about what they could do. “Well I do know that my parents are coming for the holidays so I'll be gone tomorrow.” Jeremy said. Link still couldn't figure out what he should do for the day since he didn't have any classes. Just as Link got off the desk, his Imperial March ring tone went off. “Hello, oh Yumi good morning, you have any plans since we don't have school today?” Link asked. “Well actually, I was hoping you could come over and meet my family, my mom thinks you're my boyfriend so I hoped you'd come over so she would quit asking about you.” Yumi said whining slightly. “Well ok, I can never say no to a beautiful woman who needs my help.” Link said. Yumi felt her heart beat faster than normal. “Thanks Link, be over here at 8:15 alright?” Yumi said. “Sure see you soon.” Link said hanging up. Yumi said bye and hung up as well. “Well, looks like your animal magnetism has landed you a date with Yumi, you lucky demon you.” Jeremy said patting Link on his back. Link yanked Jeremy's glasses off and put the on the top of the closet just like last night. “Not helping you this time smart guy.” Link said over his shoulder as he headed down to the cafeteria for breakfast. Link laughed aloud as he heard Jeremy yelling in frustration. Link got a tray filled with toast, eggs, pancakes and bacon. Link gobbled down the food quickly and headed outside to the grounds. Link went down the road that lead to Yumi's house. “Man I don't remember the last time I felt this nervous.” Link said to himself. Link went to Yumi's front door and knocked three times. “Good to see you, my mom has been asking all kinds of questions about you this morning, it's enough to drive me to insanity.” Yumi said letting Link in. “Thank you for inviting me Yumi, I was going to die of boredom today if I didn't find something to do today.” Link said taking his boots off. Yumi smiled at him and led him into the kitchen. “Mom this is Link, Link this is my embarrassing mother.” Yumi said. “Nice to meet you Mrs. Ishiyama.” Link said shaking her hand lightly. “So you're the Link who's such a hit with the ladies at Kadic, I can see why no girl in their right mind would resist you.” Mrs. Ishiyama said smiling broadly. Yumi glared at her mother from behind. “You know Mrs. Ishiyama, you and Yumi look almost the same.” Link said looking from Mrs. Ishiyama to Yumi. “Hey Link you're exactly right, my mom and I do look alike, it's kinda spooky.” Yumi said. Mrs. Ishiyama giggled at Yumi and began to wash the dishes. “Oh let me help Mrs. Ishiyama.” Link offered. “Well thank you Link, you know most men your age wouldn't be this polite and helpful.” Mrs. Ishiyama said smiling at Link. Link grinned sheepishly and rinsed off the dishes. “Link someday you're going to make a girl very happy.” Yumi said sitting down at the table. Link pulled out Yumi's chair for her. “Well Yumi dear, you just might that woman Link makes happy.” Mrs. Ishiyama said smiling at Links' gentleman ways. Yumi gave her mom the death stare. “Hey Yumi-chan, ooh Yumi's got a boyfriend!” Yumi's little brother Hiroki sang at the top of his lungs. Yumi walked up to her pesky baby brother and punched him on the top of the head. “Zip it squirt!” Yumi yelled. “Now Yumi don't hit Hiroki, and Hiroki you shouldn't tease your sister. Mrs. Ishiyama said. “Hiroki can be such a pain in the neck, I don't think he's a gift from above I believe that that little mutant pest Hiroki is a scientific accident.” Yumi said glaring at Hiroki who was making kissing sounds at Yumi and Link. “Well Yumi, I think you're lucky to have a little brother, I wish I did, as a matter of fact I wish I had a family.” Link said sadly. “Link, you don't have a family how awful.” Yumi said hugging Link around his neck. “It's no big deal, well I guess I should tell you why I don't have a family since you and I fight in Lyoko so you deserve to know, from what I've been told my father fought in the King of Hyrules' army and my mother carried me to safety, unfortunately my father died defending my mother and I, I've been told that I was only 2 months old at the time, my mother was very badly wounded and carried me to the Kokiri Forest on horseback, she gave me to the guardian of the forest the Deku Tree, she told the Deku Tree that I was the last pure blooded Hylian and that I was the chosen one, the last thing I remember about that moment was that my mother kissed me on the forehead and then she died.” Link said feeling tears welling up. “Link, it's okay if you want to cry.” Yumi said looking him in the eyes. Link started bawling. “It's okay Link let it all out.” Yumi said holding Link against her left shoulder. Yumi rocked Link back and forth comfortingly. “Thanks Yumi, I feel so much better now thanks to you.” Link said smiling at Yumi. Yumi kissed Link on the top of his head. Mrs. Ishiyama saw Yumi comforting Link and smiled. “Yumi is more like me than I thought she was.” Mrs. Ishiyama said smiling at Yumi. “So Link, there's a good movie coming on soon wanna watch it with me?” Yumi asked. Link nodded smiling at how caring Yumi was. Yumi and Link sat down and watched a movie called Blue Collar Comedy Tour. Yumi and Link couldn't stop laughing. “Well Yumi, you were right that was a very good movie.” Link said eating the last of the popcorn. Yumi smiled at Link as he gobbled down his root beer. “So what else should we do?” Link asked turning his head to one side. Yumi rubbed her chin in thought. “Hey Yumi-chan, oh who's this big sister?” Hiroki asked looking at Link. “Beat it creature from beyond or I'll break thine bones.” Yumi said glaring at her baby brother. “Oh I know who this is, he's Link I've read all about you in Yumi's diary.” Hiroki said happily. “You little twerp you read my diary again, I'll kill you you'd better run you little goblin.” Yumi said chasing Hiroki through the house. Link stared as Yumi pounced on Hiroki and grabbed him in a headlock. “Yumi, let your little brother go.” Mrs. Ishiyama said. Yumi got up brushing herself off. “Mom, that little mutant read my diary again.!” Yumi yelled angrily. “Hiroki, you know better than to invade Yumi's privacy, no television for a week.” Mrs. Ishiyama scolded. Hiroki pouted and headed for his room and stuck his tounge out at Yumi as he closed the door. “That Hiroki can be such a nuisance.” Yumi huffed. “Maybe he's just at a curious point in his life.” Link said thoughtfully. Yumi giggled at that and they went into her room. “Yumi, what's with that weired cat doll in the corner?” Link asked pointing at the strange looking cat doll next to Yumi's bed. “Oh that, my uncle gave it to me thinking it would be funny, in truth it is.” Yumi said patting the doll on the head. Link laughed lightly as did Yumi. “I really like your room Yumi, it's defines you.” Link said looking around the room. Yumi smacked Link on the head playfully. Link jumped at Yumi which turned into a tumble. Yumi eventually pinned Link to the floor by his arms. “Yumi let me go.” Link said squirming fruitlessly. Yumi shook her head laughing. “Not a chance, you may be a Marine but I've been training in martial arts since I was little, Ulrich thinks he can outdo me, however I've been holding back.” Yumi said ruffling Links' hair. Link tried to get out form under Yumi but to no success. Yumi laughed at Link which made him scowl at her. “Link if you want me to get off you, you have to do me a favor.” Yumi said. “Ok Yumi, what must I do?” Link asked. “Well you have to, ah ha got it, the next time we go into Lyoko you have to kiss Aelita on the lips.” Yumi said grinning evilly. “Fine I'll do it but Jeremy won't like it.” Link said. Yumi got off Link and Link got Yumi in a full nelson. “Hey no fair that's cheating!” Yumi yelled trying to get free. “Well the tables have turned Yumi, if you want me to let go then today when we go back to school you have to kiss Odd on the lips in front of everyone.” Link said smiling demon like. “Link oh fine, but you'll pay for this because I'll snap you like a twig.” Yumi said. Link released Yumi who glared at him. “Alright, let's go back to school so I can die once I kiss Odd.” Yumi sighed. Link agreed and they both walked outside and headed back to Kadic. Yumi saw Odd sitting on a bench with his headphones on signing. “HEY ODD YO PURPLE MAN TAKE OFF THOSE HEADPHONES AND QUIT YOUR PATHETIC ATTEMPT AT SIGNING!” Yumi yelled making Odd jump about five feet into the air. “Hey Yumi, hey handsome Link, what's new?” Odd asked. Link nodded at Yumi who groaned. Odd looked at Yumi awkwardly. Yumi glared at Link before she grabbed Odd by his shoulders and kissed him. When Yumi separated form Odd, Odd smiled goofy. “Well it's a good thing I chose to brush my teeth this morning.”Odd said smiling. “Ok Link my end of the bargain has been completed now you know what you have to do.” Yumi said looking at Odd who was still swooning. Link nodded knowing that he still had to kiss Aelita next time they were in Lyoko. “So what's this about a bargain?” Odd asked. Yumi told Odd how Link had gotten her in a full nelson and how Yumi had pinned Link to the floor of her bedroom and that Link had agreed to kiss Aelita since she had released him. “HA HA HA, Yumi you are good.” Odd said laughing. Link smiled at Yumi who put her arm around Links' waist in friendship. Link pulled up the hood of his cloak to keep himself warm. The three of them headed for the old factory to find Jeremy working on a program for Aelita. “Hey Jeremy how's the materialization program coming for Aelita?” Link asked leaning on the chair. “Pretty slow unfortunately.” Jeremy sighed. “Well don't worry Jeremy you'll get it right, just keep at it and never give up and you'll get Aelita out here on Earth and deactivate the super computer and Xana will be a thing of the past.” Link said reassuringly. Jeremy smiled at Link and continued working for the next hour. “Well gentlemen and lady my parents will be coming in a few minuets to pick me up so I'd best be going see you people in a week.” Jeremy said saving his program and closing it. They waved goodbye to Jeremy and they sat in a circle. “Well I have a suggestion on what we could do, lets sit down and tell stories.” Odd suggested. Yumi and Link agreed and Yumi went first. Yumi told a story about how one time her little brother Hirokuhad switched her shampoo with green dye and how she had almost killed him. “Well Yumi there's nothing wrong with green hair, my friend Saria has green hair.” Link said. Yumi smiled at Link. Odd went next and told a story about how he had tried to cook and ended up with his eyebrows singed off. Link and Yumi fell down laughing. “Hey it's not that funny it took weeks to grow my eyebrows back.” Odd said indignantly. “Sure it's that funny Odd, I'd love to see you without eyebrows.” Link said laughing at the mental picture in his head. “Ok Marine this is a direct order, you're next.” Yumi said pointing a finger in his face. Link smiled. “Alright my friends I'll tell you a story, but it is very gruesome so if you've got a weak stomach leave.” Link warned. Yumi and Odd stayed where they were. Link told them a story about when he was on the UAC Reasearch Base on Mars. Link told them about the time when he and the rest of the team went through the sewers on the Mars base. The only member of the team not there was their wheel chair bound technical support. Link had thought he had heard something coming up behind them. “So I spoke into my ear piece and asked our support if he saw anything on his computer, he did a quick check of the Waste Disposal sewers and confirmed that something was headed straight for me, well I saw what it was and it was a monster that I call the Baron.” Link said shuddering at the recount of the huge Baron creatures. “SO what happened next?” Odd asked excitedly. “Well Odd, Reaper pointed behind me and when I turned about the Baron growled at me so I put enough bullets into it that the Baron fell into the nasty smelling water, when then ran, I looked above me and saw a mechanism that crushed trash, and when the Baron got close to the mechanism I pulled a lever activating the mechanism and the Baron was crushed which incidentally sent blood and other things everywhere and some otthe Barons' organs got into my mouth so I leaned over and vomited into the sewer water.” Link said. “Well I guess since you were in a sewer there's no shame in puking in the water, sewer water is gross anyhow.” Odd said. Link smiled. Link, Odd and Yumi went back to school. They went into the gym where people were putting up decorations for the soon to be Christmas dance. “Looks like the dance will be real good.” Link said looking at the many streamers and banners. Odd looked at Yumi wiggling his eyebrows flirtingly. “Okay Odd, why in the heck are you doing that?” Yumi asked slightly annoyed. “Yumi you kissed me, I think you might like me.” Odd said in an annoying tone. Yumi looked at Odd with daggers shooting from her eyes. “Odd that was a deal I had with Link it means nothing!” Yumi yelled in Odd's face. Odd made a whimpering sound in fear of the look in Yumi's eyes. Link felt bad about the little agreement that he and Yumi made. “So Link, do you know who you're taking to the dance tonight?” Odd asked in his usual happy voice. Link thought about that for a second. “You know spike-head nobody has which is a little awkward.” Link said. Yumi laughed at Link's wisecrack at Odd. “Hey my hair isn't that spiky, uh is it?” Odd asked. “Well Odd usually I make fun of Sissy's hair yet your hair is very ugly.” Yumi said starting to laugh. Link leaned over and went into a fit of the giggles. Odd faked be offended and stormed off. “I'll get the purple man.” Link said running after Odd. Link pounced on Odd's back and wrestled him back into the gym. “Don't you worry Odd my boy, we won't tell anybody about your spike hair.” Link said. Yumi smiled at Odd. Odd went back to his room that he and Ulrich shared. “Yumi you don't plan on doing anything mean to Odd do you?” Link asked worried about the devious look on Yumi's face. “Oh no Link I won't hurt the little turd.” Yumi said rubbing her hands together. Link felt very worried as Yumi left the gym following Odd. “What are the results of what Yumi's about to do?” Link asked himself. Odd found that Ulrich left a note on Odd's bed. “Dear Odd, I went to go shopping be back in three hours Ulrich.” Odd said reading the note. Kiwi jumped out of the drawer where Odd kept him. “Hey there Kiwi boy, I bet you're hungry here I'll get you some dinner.” Odd said scrachting Kiwi behind the ears. Odd went into his closet and got out a bowl and some dog food. Odd poured the food into the bowl and Kiwi promptly gobbled the entire bowl up. Odd fell asleep quickly as did Kiwi. Yumi snuck into the room so as not to Odd, and had a bottle of blue hair dye in her hand. Yumi poured the bottle on to Odd's head and left snickering. A few hours later Ulrich opened the door to is dorm room and saw that Odd's hair had turned blue. Ulrich hid his packages and shook Odd lightly waking him up. “Hey Odd love your new hair color it's defines you.” Ulrich said snickering. Odd raised at that and then saw himself in a mirror. “AHHHH NOOO MY BEAUTIFUL BLOND HAIR IS RUINED!!” Odd yelled in shock. Ulrich fell over laughing at Odd. Odd ran out of the room and found Yumi humming to herself. “Yumi why?” Odd asked pointing at his blue hair. “Thought it'd be fun later hair boy.” Yumi said heartily. “Man Yumi is good.” Ulrich said from the doorway. Odd glared at Ulrich and got dressed. “Hello Link, did you know that Odd changed his hair color to blue?” Yumi asked leaning against a drink machine as Link got a root beer from another machine. “You had something to do with it didn't you Yumi?” Link asked taking his soda from the vending machine. “Yes I did guilty as charged.” Yumi said holding out her hands like she was waiting to be handcuffed. “Alright Yumi, though this pains me I'm going to have to execute you, any last requests?” Link asked. “As a matter of fact Link I do have a last request, will you be my date for the Christmas dance?” Yumi asked. Link felt his heart stop in a split second. “Well sure Yumi I guess I could be your date.” Link said shrugging. “Thank you so much Link, you don't know how happy this makes me.”Yumi said kissing Link on his cheek. Link felt his cheeks tinge with pink as Yumi ran off singing in Japanese in joy. Link went back to his room which was deathly quiet since Jeremy wasn't there. Link decided to open a connection to Lyoko. “Hello Aelita can you hear me?” Link asked speaking into the ear piece. “Hi Link, you must be very bored without Jeremy there.” Aelita said smiling. “That would be correct Aelita, boredom kills me.” Link said with an amused tone in his voice. Aelita looked at Link awkwardly. “It's a figure of speech Aelita.” Link explained. “Oh, Link I went on the Internet recently and I wanted to ask you something, what does it mean when you make love to someone?” Aelita asked. Link blushed for a reason he did not understand. “H mm, maybe Ulrich'll know let me call him.” Link said grabbing his mobile phone. Link punched Ulrich's number and Ulrich answered it quickly. “Hey Ulrich it's Link, Aelita asked me a question about Earth and I don't know what to tell her her question is what does it mean when you make love to a person.” Link said narrowing his eyebrows. “Uh well I don't think she needs to know right at the moment.” Ulrich said. “Okay Ulrich, good bye.” Link said hanging up. “Well Aelita I can't tell you at the moment but I promise that I'll tell you some other time.” Link said smiling. “Very well then.” Aelita said closing the connection to Earth. Link felt that someone was outside his door and opened it before they could knock. “Emily hi, what brings you here?” Link asked politely. “Well I was thinking would you be my date for the Christmas dance?” Emily asked sweetly. Link had a bad feeling this was going to happen. “Well Emily I don't mean to break your heart or anything but I'm already going with Yumi.” Link said gently. Emily's face fell greatly. “Oh okay then Link I mean I know what Yumi sees in you, you're handsome, polite, and very compassionate.” Emily said tears running down her face slightly. Link felt his heart bleed at the site of Emily's tears. “Well Emily, I guess I could go with you and Yumi I think Yumi'll understand once I explain the situation.” Link said thinking. “Oh thank you Link you are so sweet, one day you are going to make a great father.” Emily said kissing him on his cheeks repeatedly. Link felt his mind go numb at what he had just done. “Maybe Yumi will understand, I hope.” Link said to himself. At eight o'clock sharp Link was dressed for his date with Emily and Yumi. “I hope Yumi and Emily don't start fighting over me, I've had enough of that back home.” Link said adjusting his tie. Odd came in and whistled. “Whoa Link, ten bucks says that by the end of tonight you get some action with the way you're dressed.” Odd said looking at Link's crisp suit. “Whatever you say Odd.” Link said combing his hair to as neat as he possibly could. Ulrich came in and whistled just like Odd did. “Link you look kinda like James Bond except you have blond hair and pointy ears.” Ulrich said checking himself in Link's mirror. “Thanks you guys I'm very nervous, I've got two dates not just one.” Link said. Ulrich and Odd stared at Link amazed. “Link you just might get double action, I bow to the master.” Odd said kneeling before Link. “May I ask who the two lucky ladies are?” Ulrich asked. “The two women are Yumi and Emily, I feel like I've made a bad mistake I hope that I'm wrong.” Link said sighing at his possible goof up. “Yeesh I think that those two will kill each other over you.” Odd said shaking his head. Ulrich glared at Link with jealousy in his eyes. Link, Odd and Ulrich walked down to the gym their hearts thumping against their chests. Link saw Emily dressed in a pink glittering dress and she wasn't wearing her glasses. “Link my goodness you look so very handsome.” Emily said admiring Link's suit and tie. “Thank you Emily your dress suits you well.” Link said looking at Emily's dress. Emily blushed bashfully and complimented Odd and Ulrich on their clothes. Link saw Yumi inside the gym and hoped for the best. “Hello Yumi wow your dress is very nice.” Link said looking at Yumi's dress. Yumi wore a jet black kimono with a red dragon going around the chest and waist. “Link what are you doing here with Emily?” Yumi asked annoyed. “Well Yumi, when I told her I was going with you she started crying and I couldn't help but say I'd go with the two of you please I only did it because I thought it to be the right thing to do.” Link pleaded. “Well alright Emily and I can be your dates I guess you're just to nice to let a girl cry in front of you.” Yumi said smiling at Link. Link explained to Emily that she and Yumi were his dates and surprisingly enough Emily agreed. “Well Yumi would you dance with me first?” Link asked. “Sure Link dear, you may have this dance but I must warn you I have six left feet.” Yumi said leading Link on to the dance floor. Link put one arm on Yumi's waist and grabbed her hand with his free hand. Yumi put her free arm around his neck and placed her other hand over his chest. “Link I can feel your heart beating it's a very nice sound.” Yumi said as Link led her around to a slow romantic song. Link smiled sweetly at Yumi and the song ended. “Yumi you are a very gifted dancer Yumi.” Link said kissing Yumi on her cheek. Yumi blushed darkly. “Emily may I have this dance?” Link asked bowing politely. “Of course you may sir.” Emily said giggling. Link held Emily the same way he did Yumi. Emily put both hands around Link's waist. At first a slow song began to play but then it turned into a fast beat. Link flipped Emily over his back and spun her around six times very fast. After the song ended Emily was breathless. “Whoa Link, you're a very good dancer it's been some time since I've danced with someone as good as you.” Emily said drinking some punch Link had given her. Link smiled modestly. “Hey Link, where did you learn to dance like that?” Yumi asked. “Well I've often had nights without anything to do so I'd teach myself to dance.” Link said simply. Yumi and Emily looked at each other impressed. Link excused himself and got four cups of punch to calm his nerves. “So Link I saw you dancing your life away with Yumi and Emily you my friend are very skilled with the ladies.” Odd said getting himself some punch. “You hush Odd, I'm hoping the two dates of mine don't eat each other alive, I've seen enough of that for one lifetime.” Link said wiping his chin with a napkin. Odd stared at Link as he went back to dance with Emily and Yumi. “What did he mean by that I wonder?” Odd asked himself. As the night wore on Link for some reason felt that having two dates was a dumb idea. After he danced with Yumi again he noticed that Emily was looking at her with great hatred. “I hate being right all the blasted time.” Link said to himself angrily. “Listen Emily, I am Yumi's date not yours, I only said yes because I'm a nice person, but now you're getting upset with Yumi for dancing with me, so either you shape up your spoiled brat attitude or GET AWAY FROM ME!” Link yelled. Emily walked towards Link and slapped him. “You just can't accept the fact that I'm much prettier than Yumi you parent less worm.” Emily said coldly. Link wiped a speck of blood off his chin where she had smacked him and laughed. “You are a ungrateful sinful witch, I did your sorry butt a favor and you talk bad about Yumi and then slap me for defending her, ha well four-eyes I don't normally do this but in your pitiful case I'll make an exception.” Link said standing right in front of her. Link knocked Emily's legs out from under her knocking her flat on her back. “That was for the insult about my dead parents, and this one is for that crack about Yumi!” Link hollered. Link slapped her with all his might eight times and left. Yumi stood stunned. She had never seen Link act like that before and she kinda liked it. “Well Link sure told Emily.” Odd said to Ulrich. Ulrich nodded and they both followed Link back to his room. “Hey Link, Emily had no right to say what she said you had every right to smack her like that.” Ulrich said reassuringly. “Thanks Ulrich, I was right about it being a bad move to be both of their dates, I had hoped that'd I'd be wrong but I wasn't.” Link said laughing at the irony of the events he had hoped for. Odd opened the door and saw Yumi standing there. “Hey Yumi, it was very wrong of me to be Emily's date as well please forgive me.” Link begged. “Sure I do Link, you were just trying to do what you judged to be right, no one can be mad at you for that.” Yumi said tenderly. Ulrich had apparently made up his mind about something. “Yumi I have come to a decision, I no longer have a crush on you like I use to, I see clearly now that Link is very good for you I just hope we can still be friends.” Ulrich said. “Well of course we can Ulrich, you know usually you're not like this I guess it's in the season of giving that makes you say that.” Yumi said hugging Ulrich. “Yeah Ulrich buddy, this is kinda like giving the bride away at a wedding.” Odd said giggling. Ulrich felt like whacking Odd upside the head but thought better of it. Link smiled at Yumi. “Link what does that smile mean?” Yumi asked raising an eyebrow. “Oh nothing at all.” Link said grinning wickedly. That night Link went to a late night store and bought Yumi a very expensive teddy bear. The teddy bear was in a straight jacket and it had it's tounge hanging out and across the jacket it said nuts for you. The bear also had a button on the back that when pressed, the bear would laugh maniacally. Link went to Yumi's house and knocked quietly. “Hello Link is that for my Yumi?” Mrs. Ishiyama asked. Link nodded. “May I put it in her room please it's her Christmas gift?” Link asked shyly. Mrs. Ishiyama nodded and Link quietly hid the bear under Yumi's pillow. Link then went back to his room through a window and went to sleep. Link heard Jeremy's alarm clock go off. “Stupid genius.” Link grumbled. Link found presents leading form the foot of his bed to the hall outside. “Whoa I really should have seen this one coming” Link said grinning to himself. Odd walked down the hall still half asleep, to tell Link Merry Christmas when he bumped into one of Link's gifts. “What the duce?” Odd said looking at the stream of gifts. “Hey Odd check it out these gifts are all from the girls that like me!” Link shouted in glee. Odd stood mouth agape as Link opened his first gift which was from Sam. “Nice ring.” Link said trying on the emerald ring Sam had given him. Ulrich stood next to Odd with the same stupefied stare. “He is a universal wonder.” Ulrich said. Odd felt drool coming out as Link held up a photo of Niome in a two piece bathing suit. “You lucky devil you.” Odd said wiping the slobber from his chin. Link smiled at Ulrich's look of shock. Back in Yumi's room, Yumi woke up and felt something strange under her pillow. “Oh my GOD!” Yumi said in surprise. Yumi pressed the button on the bear and the bear laughed like someone that belonged in the nut house. “What a cool present and it's from Link he knows me all to well.” Yumi said hugging her new teddy. “What was that laugh?” Mr. Ishiyama asked coming into Yumi's room. “ Daddy look at what Link gave me.” Yumi said making the bear laugh insanely. “Very nice dear.” Mr. Ishiyama said smiling. Hiroki came in and tried to grab the new toy, but Yumi whacked him across the room with it. “I gotta call Link.” Yumi said dialing Link's cell phone number. Link picked up his phone and heard a twisted laugh on the other end. “Link I love this present.” Yumi said. “I knew you would Yumi, get this from the foot of my bed to out in the hall are presents for me it's so cool!” Link yelled dancing about. Yumi made an impresses noise at that. For the first time in Link's life things were going good. End Chapter 2
Chapter 3: The False Image
Yumi and Aelita ran through Lyoko. “Aelita hide some thing's coming I can hear it.” Yumi said. Aelita nodded and she ran for cover. Just then Yumi was devirtualized. “Yumi where are you you okay?” Jeremy asked sounding frantic. Jeremy went over to the transfer room and found Yumi lying in one of the scanners out cold. Jeremy dialed Link's number. “Link get to the scanner room on the double Yumi just got devirtualized and she's out like a light hurry over here and help me take her to the nurse it could be serious, uh Link hello?” Jeremy said wondering why Link hadn't answered. Link appeared behind Jeremy. “Ah, don't you do that!” Jeremy yelled jumping about three feet into the air. Link scooped Yumi up and ran to the infirmary. Odd and Ulrich came over soon as Link told them what had occurred. “So exactly what happened?” Dorothy the nurse asked. “She fainted outside, it must have been the homework our teachers give us way too much.” Odd lied. “Yes well run along now she'll be fine.” Dorothy said shooing them out. Yumi then sat up. “Well awake now are we?” Dorothy asked smiling. Yumi tried to leave but Dorothy stopped her. “No Yumi you need your rest ah!” Dorothy screamed as Yumi squeezed her wrist with great strength. Odd, Jeremy, Ulrich and Link sat on the steps outside wondering what could have happened. “I don't understand it, usually the return trips are pretty smooth.” Jeremy said. “How would you know know Einstein, you should try it one of these days you'll love it.” Odd said sarcastically. Yumi came striding towards them. “Hey Yumi what happened?” Ulrich asked. “Nothing let's go to the scanner room.” Yumi said firmly. “ No way Yumi it might be dangerous.” Jeremy said. Yumi looked at him with some anger before storming away. Link went back to his room with Jeremy. “I'll be right back Link, don't touch anything on my computer I'm trying to see what exactly happened with Yumi.” Jeremy said pointing a finger at Link jokingly. Link nodded smiling and eased himself into Jeremy's chair. “So this is what it feels like to be in his chair.” Link said putting his hands behind his head. The door opened and Link sat up. “Oh Yumi it's you, you of all people should know not to do that, I don't like it when people sneak up on me.” Link said smiling. “We have to go to the scanner room.” Yumi said. “No way lady, not till I give the go ahead, that's an order.” Link said smiling at his military order. “Hey it's important you hear.” Yumi said coyly leaning on Link's legs. “Uh Yumi you okay?” Link asked worried at the look in Yumi's eyes. “Shh.” Yumi said pushing Link back. “Yumi you should go home and take it easy, take a bath no a cold shower very cold shower to calm your nerves.” Link said hastily as Yumi's lips got ever closer to his. “Why don't you want to kiss me?” Yumi asked licking her lips in an attempt to seduce him. “Well I don't know maybe but in your current condition I might be taking advantage of you and that's just wrong.” Link said nervously. “Well I may want you to take advantage of me.” Yumi said running her hands up and down his chest. Link felt somewhat afraid of Yumi. Yumi let her fingers wander in his hair and she played with his long pointy ears. Link could feel that this would turn bad and fast if he didn't do something quickly. “Yumi what if someone comes in and sees us?” Link asked hoping someone to bust in at that very moment. “I hope that she doesn't do anything she's going to regret.” Link thought. Yumi gently nibbled on Link's ears which made him jump. “Your ears taste very good.” Yumi said running a finger along his bottom lip. Link felt a hot blush stain both of his cheeks. Yumi ran her left hand up Link's stomach and chest and was surprised at the muscles she felt. “Oh Link, your chest and stomach are so ripped it feels good.” Yumi said smiling seductively. Link felt his heart stop and hoped to Din that someone would come in soon. “Come on Link give a kiss.” Yumi said brushing her lips against his softly. Link knew that he wanted to kiss her but it seemed wrong for some reason, even though Ulrich said that Link could go out with Yumi he still felt that dating Yumi would mean that he would be betraying Ulrich and Link just couldn't do that. “Yumi please don't do this, you should go out with Ulrich not me, my life is to dangerous to have a relationship with any girl.” Link pleaded truthfully. Yumi shook her head smiling. “No no Linkie boy, you are gonna make out with me whether you like it or not.” Yumi ordered. Link knew he was right about this thing getting out of hand fast and he was apparently wrong about someone coming in on them. “I hate my good looks.” Link thought to himself acidly. Yumi licked Link across the mouth and jawline. “Link my main squeeze your skin tastes very sexy.” Yumi said biting and sucking his shoulder. Just then the door opened and Ulrich and Odd saw Yumi reaching for Link's pants. Ulrich stared at Link and Yumi with a cold eye while Odd stood there amazed. “Ulrich it's not what it looks like honestly.” Link said following Ulrich out of the room. Odd stared at Yumi shocked. “Nice move Yumi.” Odd said sounding disgusted. Yumi shrugged at Odd and spun around to the computer with an evil grin. Link had tried to calm Ulrich down which didn't have an instant effect but it showed some promise. Jeremy went back to his room to find his computer in ruin. Jeremy called Link. “Link someone trashed my computer!” Jeremy yelled. “Don't worry Jer, I'll be over there right away I'll bring Ulrich.” Link said hanging up. Link looked at Ulrich and told him the situation. “Let's find the scum who did this.” Ulrich said. Link nodded and they both took off for Link's room. “Whoa man, who could've done such a thing?” Link asked looking at the wreckage of Jeremy's computer. Odd entered and whistled. “Man whoever did this will be the victim of Jeremy's wrath, he's kinda like the Incredible Hulk, Jeremy's going to say JEREMY SMASH!” Odd said laughing himself silly. Ulrich cracked up as did Jeremy and Link. “Jeremy, I think Xana is somehow behind Yumi's strange actions.” Link said rubbing his chin in deep thought. “You know Link I wouldn't be surprised if you were right and I think you are let's go to the factory and end this before it gets any worse.” Jeremy said. Link smiled at Jeremy's quick thinking and they all ran for the manhole and went into the old factory not knowing that Yumi was following them. “Hey Aelita anything going on in Lyoko?” Jeremy asked sitting in his chair. “Jeremy, Xana's launched an attack, Yumi's still here in Lyoko he put a Guardian around her and made a fake version of Yumi.” Aelita said sounding panicked. “Link I'm so sorry for not trusting you.” Ulrich apologized. “It's okay Ulrich, could I date Yumi with your permission?” Link asked nervously. “If she wants to then you can.” Ulrich said happily. Link, Odd, and Ulrich were transferred to the Polar Region. “I'll be right back fellas, got to get some fire power.” Link said when they entered the Polar Region. “Sure, we'll make sure to save some for you Man Slayer.” Odd said fiddling with his cat tail. Link walked to a hidden ice hill and punched in the door code 696. Link looked around wondering what powerful gun he should bring into the fray. Link spied the plasma gun on his left and smiled. “Good old Duke.” Link said laughing to himself. Link grabbed the plasma gun from the wall. “Handle I . D. Man Slayer.” the plasma gun said. “Say my name hot stuff.” Link said sounding just like the smooth man Duke once was. Link loaded some extra plasma cells into his belt and went back to Ulrich and Odd who had Aelita standing between them. “Hey there Man Slayer, oh nice weapon what is it?” Odd asked. “It's the plasma gun, it fires high velocity energy projectiles at the target which will more than likely will be fried by the blasts.” Link said smiling. “Can I try it please?” Odd asked jumping up and down like the little kid he was. “Odd, so you honestly think I'm stupid enough to let you use something this strong, think bird brain.” Link said tapping Odd on his head with the butt of the plasma gun. Ulrich had to use his sword to support himself he was laughing so much. Aelita looked and Link and Odd strangely. “Look out soldier, four cankcralots coming toward you.” Jeremy warned from the factory. Link pulled the trigger on the plasma gun and several blue blasts destroyed the cankcralots. “Very nice shooting Link.” Aelita said. Link smiled making Aelita feel strange. “Hey guys I can see the Guardian thing up there, I'll get my BFG so we can blow it away.” Link said heading back to the weapons room. “All right everyone stand back this might get a little rocky.”Link said preparing to fire the BFG. Aelita, Odd and Ulrich all ducked as Link pulled the trigger on the BFG. The BFG blast destroyed the Guardian in an instant. “Yumi listen to me are you okay?” Link asked worriedly. “Oh hey Link, I'm not sure what happened but I am not a happy camper.” Yumi said groggily. “Yumi, there's an evil you on Earth and I have a strong belief that Jeremy is going to be in great danger.” Link said slightly anxious. Yumi started thinking. “I have to face the evil me.” Yumi said to herself. “Link divirtualize me.” Yumi said suddenly. “How do you expect me to do that?” Link asked dumbfounded. “Well why don't you use one of those grenades to finish me quickly?” Yumi suggested. Link smiled and grabbed one of the many silvery grenades from his belt. Link stuck a grenade down the front of her outfit. “Link how dare YOU!” Yumi shouted angrily. Link dove away from Yumi just as the grenade went off. “I've always wanted to do that.” Link said smiling to himself. Yumi arrived in the scanner room and saw her veil twin. “You know you look a lot like me on a bad day.” Yumi said to her other self. The evil Yumi lunged at the good Yumi with rage. Yumi dodged to one side and grabbed the other Yumi around the neck. Back in Lyoko, Link, Odd, Ulrich and Aelita were still heading for the tower. “I have a very weired feeling welling up.” Link said. “Oh man.” Odd moaned as a huge monster made it's way to them. “That's a Hell Knight these things are tough be on your toes.” Link said loading a cell into his plasma gun. Ulrich used his super sprint and struck the Hell Knight three times. The only thing this accomplished was that it got the Hell Knight very angry. “Okay that didn't work this is so not good.” Ulrich said. “We have such a big problem, and it has teeth and will rip the flesh from our little bodies then eat our meat.” Odd said. “Odd please shut up.” Link said thinking up a plan. Link got an idea and ran at the Hell Knight. The Hell Knight rushed Link as well and Link slid under the Hell Knight and leaped upon it's back. “Eat this you freak!” Link shouted putting his plasma gun down the Hell Knight's throat. Link unloaded the entire cell into the Hell Knight causing total disengration. “Oh pretty light.” Odd said. Link smiled at Odd and they continued on their way. Yumi and her evil twin continued their duel to death. “Your not bad, not good but not bad.” Yumi said slugging the evil Yumi in the mouth. The evil Yumi licked up some of the blood from her lips. “Don't worry slowpoke, there's more blood where that came from.” Yumi said. Evil Yumi glared at the good Yumi with rage. Yumi grabbed her evil twin by the ankles and slammed her into a wall several times. In Lyoko, Link saw another Hell Knight guarding the activated tower. “Time the use the holy grail of all weapons.” Link said taking out his Bio-Force- Gun. Link Fired the BFG and the Hell Knight melted away. “You have got to get me on of those.” Odd said. Link popped Odd on the back of his head. “You'd probably kill someone if I let you use one of these.” Link said shaking his head at Odd. Odd looked hurt but recovered quickly. As they got to the tower Link remembered that he still had to kiss Aelita as part of his deal with Yumi. “Hey Aelita come here for a second.” Link said. Aelita walked over to Link unsure of what he wanted. “Good luck deactivating that tower.” Link said grabbing Aelita by the shoulders gently. Link gently kissed Aelita on the lips. Aelita was very surprised as Link's lips met hers. “That was for luck.” Link said blushing slightly. Aelita nodded still pink in the face. Aelita entered the tower in the nick of time. As the day returned to normal Link was still sitting in Jeremy's chair. “You know I knew that it wasn't the real Yumi when she started hitting on me the way she did.” Link said looking at Ulrich and Jeremy. “Oh then how do you know I'm me?” Yumi asked leaning close to him. “Yumi knock it off I've had enough of that for one day.”Ulrich said. “Ulrich's jealous.” Odd sang. Ulrich started chasing Odd up and down the boys dorm.
End Chapter 3
Chapter 4: Meet Dr. Grimm
Link sat in Jeremy's room reading a book. Jeremy was at the factory working on a materialization program which would bore Link silly. Link then heard someone out side his room window. Link went to the window cautiously and opened the window gently. “Hey Link!” a woman said leaping on top of him. The woman had long blond hair that was tied into a ponytail and wore a lab coat. “Dr. Grimm, what're you doing here?” Link asked surprised. “To tell you the truth I'm not sure how I got here but it's good to see you.” Dr. Grimm said hugging Link around his neck. “So Dr. Grimm, would you like to meet my friends?” Link asked smiling. “Hey Link you don't have to call me doctor, call me Sam that's my name.” Sam said kissing him on his cheek. Link felt his cheeks sport a hot blush which made Sam laugh. “Let's go meet your friends cutie.” Sam said ruffling Link's hair. Link led Sam to Ulrich and Odds' room. “Hey Ulrich and Odd, this my friend Sam Grimm.” Link said introducing Sam to his two good pals. “Link how do you get such hot women it's scary.” Odd said in shock of Sam's beauty. “I'm hot Link you are a ladies man.” Sam said scratching him on the ears. Odd fell out of his bed laughing. Link jumped on Odd and they began wrestling. Link pinned Odd down. “Now Odd, if you want me to let you go you have to kiss Sissy at breakfast in front of everyone.” Link said sitting on Odds' back. “You are so evil alright I'll do it but I'll kill you later.” Odd said giving into Link's demands. “Link, you my friend are good.” Sam said putting an arm around his shoulders. Link smiled and they headed down to the cafeteria while Sam went to the factory to meet Jeremy. “All right Odd any last words before you kiss Sissy?” Ulrich asked sitting down. “Yes tell Kiwi I love him.” Odd said bowing his head. Link laughed just as Sissy made her way over to Link. “Good morning handsome.” Sissy said smiling at Link. Link smiled at Odd wickedly. “All right I'll do it already.” Odd whispered. Odd got up and stood in front of Sissy. “What do you want you slob?” Sissy asked meanly. Odd shut his eyes and kissed Sissy quickly. Ulrich fell off the table as did Link. “HOW DARE YOU ODD!” Sissy yelled slapping Odd across the face. Link and Ulrich cringed at that. Sissy grabbed Link around his waist and pulled him close. “Hey Link, tomorrow is my birthday would you come to my party please?” Sissy asked sweetly. “Well sure Sissy.” Link said shaking Sissy's hand. Sissy squealed and kissed Link on his cheek and ran off to her father. “Yumi is going to kill you you realize that right?” Ulrich asked. “I think she'll understand and if she doesn't Odd you stay away from my stuff Ulrich you can have whatever you want.” Link said. “Thank you, personally I wouldn't trust Odd with your stuff.” Ulrich said smiling at Link. Link began laughing as Odd started gagging since he just kissed Sissy. Link heard his mobile ring and he went into a hallway so he could hear it better. “Hey Sam, so do you know everything now?” Link asked referring to Lyoko and Aelita. “Sure do, handsome I'm a little bored though, I know Jeremy likes Aelita it's so obvious.” Sam said smiling at Jeremy who was glaring at her playfully. “Well I know how you feel Sam, I've sometimes sat in the factory for hours and I almost died of super extreme boredom.” Link said chuckling. “So what do you want to do tonight?” Sam asked leaning against Jeremy's chair. “What do you mean Sam?” Link asked slightly perplexed. “I mean I want to go on a date with you silly.” Sam said laughing. Link felt a little embarrassed by that and thought about it. “Well I guess we could go on a date what did you have in mind?” Link asked. “Well, I was thinking we could go out for dinner then go for a walk in the park.” Sam suggested putting a hand through her hair. “Well nice idea Sam I'll meet you in the factory in an hour.” Link said. “Okay than Link, see you soon handsome.” Sam said hanging up. Link hung up as well and hoped that Yumi wouldn't find out. “Hey Link who was that on your phone?” Odd asked. “That was Sam Grimm, she asked me out on a date and I accepted.” Link said eating some bacon. Odd gave Link an impressed look, while Ulrich smiled. Link got up and went back to his room to get ready for his date with Sam. Link put on the same suit and tie that he did for the Christmas dance. Link combed his hair to the best of his ability. “My hair just does what it wants never what I want it to do.” Link said looking at his hair in the mirror next to his bed. Link headed for the clearing where the manhole was that lead to the old abandoned factory. Link ran through the sewer eager to see his good friend Sam. Link emerged from the opposite manhole that was directly in front of the factory. Link entered the old factory went down the elevator. “Hey Jeremy, is Sam here?” Link asked tapping Jeremy on the top of his head. “She should be here soon she went shopping for a dress for her date with you, you are so lucky to get a date with an older woman.” Jeremy wiping his glasses clean. Link smiled at that just as Aelita appeared on the monitor. “Hello Jeremy, hello Link why are you dressed like that Link?” Aelita asked looking at Link's outfit. “Oh this, I've have a date with an older woman named Sam Grimm, I hope she'll be here soon.” Link said wondering where Sam could be. Just then Sam came down the elevator, and Link felt his eyes coming out of his head. “Sam you look great!” Link exclaimed. Sam was wearing a blue and green tank-top that showed her shoulders, a short mini-skirt and spiked high heels. “Thanks I had some extra money lying around.” Sam said turning pink at Link's compliment. Link took Sam's arm and they walked to a new Mexican restaurant. “This place looks very nice.” Link said looking around the restaurant. “Yeah it does I kinda have a thing for Mexican food, like I have a big thing for you mostly because of your pointy ears, your blond hair and your cute blue eyes.” Sam said spanking Link on the rear playfully. Link spanked her back and they were lead to a table. “I think I'll have two tacos with lettuce, tomato, cheddar cheese and sour cream.” Sam said. “I'll have a taco with the same things on it as hers.” Link said. The waiter went to the kitchen with their orders. “So you still don't know how you got here Sam?” Link asked. “Nope I got no clue.” Sam said taking a sip of her cola. Their food arrived a few minuets later and it looked great. “Mmm, this is good.” Link said wiping some sour cream from his mouth. Sam nodded and swallowed a mouth full of taco. Sam and Link soon finished their dinner and they then left for the park. “This is a very nice park isn't it Link?” Sam asked looking at the many trees. “Yeah it is Sam.” Link said smiling. Sam grabbed Link's hand and pulled him against her side. Link felt his face flush as Sam kissed the top of his head. “Let's sit down on that bench.” Sam said. Link nodded and they sat down on the bench next to a small pond filled with ducks. Sam put her head down upon Link's lap and felt like she could go to sleep. “You know Link your lap is very comfortable.” Sam said looking up at him. “Thanks Sam.” Link said smiling at her. After a few hours of walking in the park, Link and Sam went back to the factory. “Well Sam I have to head back to my dorm room or I'll get in trouble with Jim again.” Link said. “Yeah I guess you need to go I don't want you to get busted just because you were dating me.” Sam said smiling. Sam bent down and kissed Link on the lips gently. “That's so you don't forget that I love you.” Sam said softly in his right ear. Link watched as Sam went back to the old factory. “Man Sam is so very beautiful.” Link said touching the place where Sam had kissed him. Link went back to his room to find Jeremy sitting in his chair talking to Aelita as usual. “Hey Link, oh, I like that look in your eyes.” Jeremy said smiling at Link. “Yeah and at the end of our date she uh, kissed me.” Link said dreamily. Jeremy began laughing and Link got up from his bed and took Jeremy's glasses and placed them on top of the dresser. “HEY, give those back it's not funny a third time.” Jeremy said jumping up and down trying to get his glasses. Aelita started giggling while Jeremy tried to grab Link. “Catch me if you can.” Link laughed running around the room. Link gave Jeremy back his glasses and fell asleep dreaming a lot of very nice dreams about Sam Grimm.
End Chapter 4
Chapter 5: Sissy's Birthday
Link didn't want to get up the next morning. Jeremy woke up early and heard Link talking in his sleep. “LINK GET UP ALREADY!” Jeremy yelled into Link's ear. Link woke up with a start. “What happened?” Link asked blearily. Jeremy laughed at Link and Link glared at Jeremy. “Hopefully Yumi doesn't find out that an older woman kissed you on the mouth or it'll be war.” Jeremy said as he and Link went to the bathroom to brush their teeth. “Tell me something that I don't already know.” Link said spitting into the sink. Just then, Nick and Herb walked in looking mad at Link. “Link, how dare you get invited to Sissy's birthday party, you want to date her don't you?!” Herb asked angrily. “Listen Herb, first off I'm going because I'm nice to girls, and second I've already gone out with a woman that's 21 years old so back off!”Link shouted. Nick looked at Link dumbfounded. Herb felt like his heart stop cold. “Link got you there Herb.” Jeremy said laughing. Link laughed as well and rinsed. Link and Jeremy went down to breakfast to find Odd and Ulrich already eating. Odd was eating a whole load of pancakes and eggs. “Odd you must have 18 stomachs to eat that much.” Link said smiling. Odd tried to say something but couldn't since his mouth was full of food. “Hey Odd just so you know none of us here speak mouth full of food.” Ulrich said patting Odd on the back. Odd almost said something again but he still had hid mouth full. Link, Ulrich and Jeremy all laughed at Odd, and Odd swallowed. “Well Link, at least I didn't kiss Aelita.” Odd said looking very smug. Link tried to leap over the table and strangle Odd for that comment. “Link you what?” Jeremy asked in shock. “All it was Jeremy was a deal I made with Yumi like when she kissed Odd so it meant nothing I swear ask Yumi.” Link explained. “Well okay, I guess you're too handsome to resist.” Jeremy said smiling at Link. Sissy walked up behind Link and grabbed him by his shoulders. “Hello Link dear.” Sissy said hugging him around the neck. “Happy birthday Sissy.” Link said hugging Sissy back. Odd, Ulrich and Jeremy looked at Link slightly afraid. “So Sissy what would you like for your birthday anyway?” Link asked. “Well come here I'll tell you.” Sissy said. Link leaned his ear close to her mouth. “I want you to be my boyfriend for 3 months.” Sissy said smiling. Link thought that doing this would be bad since there was Yumi and Sam. But the gentleman in him wouldn't let him refuse Sissy gift wish. “Sure Sissy it couldn't hurt.” Link said smiling sweetly. Sissy felt her cheeks burn with embarrassment. Sissy walked off proud of herself. “Link you are gonna be dead when Yumi and Sam find out.” Jeremy said smiling at Link. “Yeah I know it'll be a massacre.” Link groaned. Odd smiled at Link and Link poured Odds' milk on his head. Ulrich cracked up and Link went to go see Sam at the factory. “Hey Sam good morning.” Link said seeing Sam sitting on the floor next to the super computer. Sam looked up and smiled at Link. “Good morning good looking.” Sam said smiling at Link. Sam got up and kissed Link deeply. “Why did you do that?” Link asked turning every shade of red in life. “Well you know that I'm in love with you, and besides your lips taste very sexy.” Sam said licking her lips. Link turned pink which made Sam laugh. Link walked up to Sam and for some reason, he gave her a passionate kiss. Link opened her lips with his tounge and let move around in her mouth. Sam moaned as Link grabbed her by the hips. “Link you are a very good kisser.” Sam said running a finger across Link's mouth. “You are too Sam but you should know I said that for Sissy's birthday I would be her boyfriend for 3 months.” Link said hoping Sam wouldn't be mad. Sam looked at Link deciding what she should say. “Well okay but promise me this, when it's over will you be my boyfriend?” Sam asked smiling sweetly. Link looked at Sam amazed at what she had just asked him. “Well sure I guess.” Link said holding Sam's hand. Sam cracked a very big smile and gave Link a very deep and intimate kiss. “Thank you Link, you can't imagine how much this means to me you are so very sweet, and you're very sexy.” Sam said kissing him on his cheek. Link felt his cheeks burn and went back to the school. Link saw Sissy standing at the entrance to the wearing blush on her cheeks. “Sissy actually looks nice.” Link said to himself. “Hello Link dear, let's go shopping.” Sissy ordered. “Sure, I've been meaning to go get a new video game for Odd since I made him kiss you.” Link said smiling. “Please don't remind me Link, I'd rather kiss you handsome.” Sissy said curling her hands in Link's hair. “Thanks Sissy.” Link said smiling weakly. Sissy took Link's arm and they went to a shop where Sissy tried on several dresses and asked Link for his opinion. “So Link what do you think of this one?” Sissy asked. Sissy came out of the dressing room wearing a red dress that reached above mid-thigh. “It looks very pretty.” Link said looking at her dress with red toned cheeks. Sissy grinned at Link and went over to Link and kissed him on the cheek. Link and Sissy went to a video game store so Link could get Odd a new video game. “I was thinking about getting Odd Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance, wonder if they have it?” Link asked himself. “You know this place is actually interesting, but don't you tell anyone I said that Link.” Sissy said pointing a finger at Link jokingly. Link found the game he was looking for and payed 35 dollars and they left. “I'm very glad you came with me today Link, in truth the only reason I pester you and your friends is because I want to be your friend as well.” Sissy said sadly. Link looked at Sissy stunned. “Sissy, you should have told me that before, tell you what I'll do I'm going to talk to Jeremy and Yumi about to this and I promise you that I'll find some way of getting you to be one of our friends.” Link said putting an arm around her shoulders. “Link you'd really do that you are so generous.” Sissy said kissing Link all over the face. Link felt his face burn and Link walked Sissy back to her room. Sissy grabbed Link's arm stopping him. “Link wait I want to give you something for being so nice to me today.” Sissy said reaching into her purse. Sissy pulled out a glittering friendship bracelet. “Sissy it's so nice thank you.” Link said putting it on his wrist. Sissy put one on her wrist as well. “I got two so no matter what happens Link you and me will always be friends.” Sissy said letting go of Link's arm. “Good night Sissy, I guess my friends just misunderstood you.” Link said. Link leaned forward and gave Sissy a kiss on her forehead. Sissy felt her heart jump with joy and she closed her door singing in joy. Link walked back to the boys dorm smiling to himself. Link heard his mobile ring and he grabbed it from his pocket and answered it. “ Hello Sam, what's going on?” Link asked leaning against a wall. “Just wanted to tell you that I'm going love you no matter what happens.” Sam said smiling. “Well that is very nice of you Sam, you know I've never met a woman quite as smart as you.” Link said combing some hair from his face. “Link that is so nice, see you tomorrow handsome.” Sam said making kissing sounds. Link hung up as did Sam and Link went back to his room. Link took off his clothes and crawled into bed. Link woke up at 5 and saw Jeremy talking to Aelita. “Jeremy do you love waking me up this early?” Link asked glaring at Jeremy groggily. “No it just happens and I like it.” Jeremy said smiling at Link whose hair was sticking up in one place. Link grabbed a book and slammed it on top of Jeremy's head. “That was for waking me up so blasted early, next time I'll hog tie you to a chair and make Odd sing to you.” Link said putting some clothes on. “You aren't that evil, are you?” Jeremy asked looking at Link scared. “You don't know how scary my days in the Rapid Response Tactical Squad has made me.” Link said leaning close to Jeremy. Link smiled smugly and walked to the bathrooms to brush his teeth. Link thought he heard someone singing in the boys shower room. “That sounds like a girl, who could it be I wonder.” Link said to himself sneaking around like he used to do on the Mars Research station Olduvai. Link poked his head around the corner that lead to the shower stalls tapped the wall 3 times loud enough for whomever it was singing to hear him. “Okay, even though you are a girl you can't be in here it's the boys room.” Link said leaning on the corner. “Oh hey Link good morning.” Sam said walking out of the stall. Link felt his eyes come out of his head when he saw that Sam was naked. Link couldn't help staring at Sam's large and round breasts. “Don't worry Link I'm not ashamed of you seeing me naked that type of thing never really mattered to me.” Sam said stretching so Link could see all of her lean body. “Just don't tell any of your friends you saw me nude or I'll throw you to the ground and have my way with you.” Sam said touching her nipples making herself moan in pleasure. “Sam I love you!” Link shouted. Link covered his mouth in shock. “Link you know I love you but I'm glad you have finally admitted that you love me too.” Sam said rubbing Link on his ears. Link leaned forward and kissed Sam on the lips gently. “Oh Link, you are such a hot kisser.” Sam moaned. Sam then licked Link across the mouth. “Link tonight after you get back from Sissy's birthday come over to the factory I want to do something to you.” Sam said into Link's ear. Link nodded and gave her another kiss. Sam blushed and put on a towel and went back to the factory. “Hey Jeremy Sam asked me over to the factory tonight and wants to do something to me whatever she meant by that.” Link said scratching his head. “Link I think you should know that what Sam wants to do with you, I do believe that Sam wants to make love to you.” Jeremy said making his own glasses fog up. “Whoa man, I knew I was handsome but this is new to me, should I do it?” Link asked confused. “Well Link, it's up to you I can't tell you what you should do.” Jeremy said. Link nodded and went to see Sissy. “Good morning Sissy.” Link said as Sissy opened her room door. “Oh good morning good looking.” Sissy said kissing Link on his cheek. Link took Sissy's arm in his and they went to her house to celebrate her birthday. “You'll like my mom, and I know my older sister will like you too not too much I hope.” Sissy said as they approached her home. “Well she can't be that bad can she?” Link asked as Sissy rang the bell. “Hello there sis, and who is this handsome little devil?” Sissy's older sister said looking at Link's lean and chiseled frame. “Link this is my older sister Linda, Linda don't touch Link I've got him.” Sissy said looking at Sissy with the eyes of a green monster. “Well Sissy you do have good taste this one is very hot.” Linda said eying Link. Link took Linda's hand and kissed it respectfully. Linda smiled at Link and Sissy dragged Link away from her older sister. “Hi mommy, this is my boyfriend Link.” Sissy said. “Nice to meet you Mrs. Delbas.” Link said smiling warmly. “Well Sissy you've landed yourself a good catch here.” Mrs. Delbas said smiling at Link. Link felt his cheeks burn and Sissy led Link to her bedroom. “Wow Sissy you've got a very nice room.” Link said looking at the many posters of puppies. “Thanks Link, so have you talked to your friends yet?” Sissy asked. “Oh no I have not, but I'll talk to them tonight after the party.” Link promised. Sissy smiled at Link and kissed him on the cheek. “Hey Link dearest, let's go see my room.” Linda said. Sissy gave her older sister the look of death. “Sure Linda.” Link said politely. Linda led Link to her room which was just down the hall. Linda quickly turned around and locked the door. “We don't want anybody disturbing us my love.” Linda said smiling coyly. Link felt his heart thumping in fear and tried to get away from Linda but could not. “Linda why are you doing this?” Link asked as Linda pushed him against a wall. “Well handsome, you're cute, you have long pointy ears that look delicious, and your eyes and hair are to die for.” Linda said kissing Link on the crook of his neck. “Linda please stop I don't feel comfortable about this.” Link said squirming helplessly against the wall Linda had pinned him to. Linda let her tounge run along Link's collarbone. Link felt his face light on fire. “Link your flesh tastes so yummy.”Linda said nibbling Link on the ears. Link tried to get away Linda but to no success. “Now come now, Link let me take all of that tension away.” Linda said sweetly as she unbuttoned Link's forest green tunic. Linda began sucking on Link's throat and Link let out a moan by accident. “I see that you like it when I do that to your throat, well Link you just wait until your pants and underwear are off then you'll really like what I can do to you.” Linda said running her hand on Link's groin. Link smacked Linda's hand away and pushed her back. “Linda don't do this I don't like this.” Link said glaring at her. Linda looked at Link with tears in her eyes. “Link, please I truly do love you, listen my last boyfriend cheated on me and I've been up all week crying wishing that he would come back and seeing you here with Sissy led me to realize it's not going to happen and you are just so kind and caring and I know that you think that a woman should be treated with kindness and sensitivity please I don't want to go through the same thing again.” Linda begged beginning to weep openly. Link felt bad about this. Link didn't want Linda to go through the same sadness again. “Well I don't want to see you hurt Linda , so what do you want to do with me?” Link asked fearing the worst. Linda thought about that. “Well I would like to make love to you but however, let's do it in the pool late tonight so no one will my shouts of pleasure.” Linda said licking Link on his lips. “Well all right Linda what time?” Link asked. “Tonight at 8:00 sharp.” Linda said. Link nodded and he and Linda went down to the party. Link saw very few people at the party besides Sissy's parents which made Link feel bad. Linda gave Sissy a little black book to use when she got older. “Thank you Linda.” Sissy said hugging Linda around the neck. Link smiled at how Linda and Sissy loved each other. At 8:00 Linda and Link went outside to the pool. “Are you sure no one will know what we're doing out here Linda?”Link asked a little nervous. “Look Link don't worry, nobody will be able to hear us it won't be that incredibly loud it'll be loud but not that loud.” Linda said taking off her bathing suit. Link felt very embarrassed as he saw Linda's full and firm breasts. “Link do you like my huge boobs?” Linda asked. Link was about to answer when something behind him was growling. Link whipped himself about. A huge Hell Knight jumped out in front of him and roared in his face. “Link don' t let that thing near me!” Linda screamed. Link grabbed a nearby chair and broke it over the Hell Knight's skull. “Should have know that wouldn't work.”Link said to himself. The Hell Knight slammed it's huge fist into Link's stomach sending Link a few feet back. The Hell Knight jumped forward and landed right in front of Link. Link then kicked the Hell Knight's legs out from under it, sending it toppling to the cold cement. Link jumped on top of the Hell Knight and began slamming his fists into its face. “KILL THAT THING LINK!” Linda yelled dancing around. Link grabbed the Hell Knight around the throat and began to strangle it. Link felt the Hell Knight's throat collapse and got up sweating profusely. “Link are you okay, what was that thing?” Linda asked running over to Link, her breasts bouncing. “A Hell Knight if memory serves me correctly, it the simplest of terms it's big, mean and has a taste for flesh.” Link said dragging the corpse away. “Link it didn't hurt you did it?” Linda asked concerned. “Nothings broken, except maybe a few ribs, my spine and maybe my pancreas.” Link said feeling around. Linda hit Link playfully. “Link could we postpone our love making?” Linda asked. “Sure we could, besides I need to find the root of this problem.” Link said folding his arms. Link pulled out his cell phone after he left Linda and called Sam. “Sam it's Link, listen we've got company a Hell Knight just attacked Sissy's older sister Linda, I think that Xana is behind it how I have no clue.” Link said walking to the old factory. “Yike, that does sound like a problem, come to the factory and let's see if there's an activated tower.” Sam said hanging up. Link hung up as well and ran for the factory. Link went down the old elevator and found Sam sitting in Jeremy's chair. “Link did you forget that tonight you and I were supposed to make love to each other?” Sam asked pursing her lips together. “Well no but you know I had a run in with an old friend.” Link said looking at Sam worriedly. “You sure you saw a Hell Knight and aren't just saying this to get out of my making love to you, look me in the eyes and tell me the truth, are you lying?” Sam asked crossly. “Sam you have my word of honor that I am not lying.” Link said holding his hand over his heart. “All right fine, by the way do you like my night dress?” Sam asked. Link looked at Sam and noticed that she was wearing a see-through night dress. Link could clearly see Sam's large breasts and her lower extremities. Link felt his face flush at the sight of Sam's body. “I thought you'd like it hun, now let's contact Aelita.” Sam said typing in the coordinates. “Aelita it's Sam has Xana activated any towers Link just ran into an old friend that tried to eat him for dinner.” Sam said looking at Link over her shoulder. “Yes Sam, Xana has activated a tower!” Aelita said frantically. “All right Link, I'll get Jeremy and the others and you deal with whatever moves within 10 feet of you understood soldier?” Sam said looking at Link with a broad smile. “Sir yes sir.” Link said saluting to Sam. “I'll take that as a compliment, but don't call me sir it's ma'am.” Sam said kissing at Link. Link smiled at Sam and went back up the elevator and went into the armory that Sam had made for him. Link typed in the door code 696 and the door opened. “Special Ops clearance verified.” the door chirped sliding open. Link went over and grabbed him armor jumpsuit and put on his communicator. Link went over to a wall containing guns and grabbed his BFG. “Handle I.D. Manslayer. “ his gun said. Link smiled at the BFG and walked out of the armory and clicked on the flashlight built in to the BFG and looked up at the ceiling. “Hey Jeremy, Ulrich, Odd and Yumi, take it nice and slow who knows what might be up there.” Link said walking around cautiously. “It's always the comic relief guy that gets eaten first.” Odd said looking around scared. Yumi, Jeremy and Ulrich laughed at Odd as they went down the elevator. Link heard something behind him and wheeled himself around. Link saw the monster version of Pinky. Link aimed the BFG and fired. The Pinky was obliterated by the blast and the force of the blast rocked the factory. “Link needs to not use the BFG so much too many blasts from that thing could bring the factory down.” Jeremy said holding on to his chair. Link swiveled the BFG's flashlight left and right just in case anything was above him. Just then, a huge Baron leaped down from the rafters above and let out a roar of challenge. Link simply smiled at the Baron and let loose a blast from the BFG, which melted the Baron. “Sometimes I think that those Barons are dumber than zombies.” Link said laughing to himself. Aelita had made it to the tower just as another Baron jumped down behind Link. Link saw the white dome expanding. “Just when it was getting good too.” Link moaned. The day went back to the time when Sissy came up behind Link in the cafeteria. “ Link dear, will you go to m birthday party?” Sissy asked. “Sorry Sissy I can't, I've already made plans.” Link said referring to Sam who was in the factory. Sissy stormed off angrily. End Chapter 5
Chapter6: The Temporary Freedom Of Aelita
Jeremy felt his heart leaping in utter joy. “LINK GET UP NOW!” Jeremy yelled in Link's ear. “JEREMY HOW MANY DAMN TIMES HAVE I TOLD YOU NOT TO DO THAT!” Link yelled sitting up angrily. “Sorry Link, but I had to tell you the good news, I did it the materialization program for Aelita is complete, now all we need to do is get the principals' go ahead and Aelita can be here in this school.” Jeremy said excitedly. Link nodded smiling and then fell back on his mattress and fell asleep. “Snooze demon.” Jeremy said chuckling at Link. “I heard that know it all.” Link said sitting up again. Jeremy yelped at that and Link began laughing. Jeremy quickly called the others and told them to come over to his room at 3:00. “Jeremy, let's go down and get something to eat, even warriors such us need food in our bellies.” Link said pulling some old clothes on. Jeremy nodded and he and Link went to the cafeteria. “Jeremy I can't believe you finally did it, now Xana will be a thing of the past.” Odd said stuffing his face full of food. “Yeah Einstein now you can finally date Aelita, unless that is Aelita falls in love with Link which I know she will, I mean everybody else has.” Ulrich said laughing at the face Jeremy made. Link smiled sheepishly, and began devouring his own tray. Yumi came up behind Link and grabbed Link by his shoulders. “Yumi you know I hate it when people do that, next time you do that I'll have to beat you silly.” Link said wiping his mouth. Yumi smiled at Link and then hugged him around the neck. Link smiled with a small shade of pink going across his cheeks. Yumi just had to giggle at that. “Man I can't believe that you finally got the materialization program finished Jeremy.” Yumi said smirking at Jeremy. “I know how we can get Aelita enrolled on our school, I'll tell the principal that Aelita's my cousin from Canada and everything will be alright.” Odd said putting up his tray. “You know, for once Odd has a good idea, let's go up there now and see if we can sweet talk the principal.” Ulrich said walking with Odd to the office. Link felt that something bad was about to happen, why he felt this he did not understand. “Hey Link, everything okay?” Yumi asked. “Yeah sure Yumi, just not enough sleep.” Link lied. Yumi looked at Link with concern. Yumi walked to her next class while Link and Jeremy went to Physics. Jeremy sat down trying to calm himself. Today they were taking an important test and Jeremy and Link had already finished. “Ma'am, Jeremy and I have already finished may we go?” Link asked using his charms. “You and Jeremy may go Link.” Ms. Hertz said smiling at Link. Link grinned at Jeremy and they both ran past Ulrich and Odd. “Hey guys everything is set up.” Odd said triumphantly. “Odd I've never said this before but you are the greatest.” Link said taking a step back. “Why are you stepping away from Odd?” Ulrich asked. “Don't want to be struck by the lightning.” Link said pulling Jeremy with him. Jeremy bit his lip so he wouldn't start laughing. Link and Jeremy took off for the factory. Little did they know that Jim was hot on their tail. “Jeremy someone's following us.” Link said looking over his shoulder. “JIM!?” Jeremy said in shock. “All right Jeremy, Link, I 've lost my job but before I leave I demand you tell me what the heck is going on.” Jim barked. Link nodded to Jeremy and they both took of like lightning. Jim tackled Jeremy just as he went down the stairs. “OWW MY ANKLE!” Jeremy yelled in pain. Jim looked at Jeremy ashamed of what he had done. Jim picked Jeremy up and carried him to the infirmary. “Uh, Dorothy I need to go to the bathroom.” Jeremy said trying to get up. “Here go in this basin and if you keep this attitude up I won't give you crutches to walk with.” Dorothy said. Dorothy left and Jim came in quietly. “Listen Jeremy, I'm really sorry for all the trouble I've caused you and your friends I'm going to miss you.” Jim said sadly. “Wait Jim, my friends and I we do have a secret and if you help me out, I'll tell the principal everything.” Jeremy said. Jim considered this and shook Jeremy's hand. Jim picked Jeremy up and carried him out the window. Jeremy called Link on his cell phone telling Link what was going on. “All right Jeremy, I'll be over at the factory as soon as I can.” Link said gathering up some things. Jeremy gave Jim the directions to the old factory. After Jim and Jeremy had rode down the old elevator, Jim was amazed at the super computer. “Don't tell me you understand all of that.” Jim said looking at the data on the computer. “It's not that hard really.” Sam said looking up from where she was sleeping. “Don't worry Sam Jim's on our side.” Jeremy said at the bewildered look on Sam's face. “Hey Jeremy, hi Sam you look tired.” Link said looking at the bags under Sam's eyes. “It's hard to sleep on a steel floor.” Sam said smiling at Link. Jim looked at Link and Sam strangely. “I'll explain later Jim.” Jeremy said looking at the monitor. In a few minuets everyone else arrived at the computer room. “Don't worry guys Jim's with us, it's thanks to him I got here.” Jeremy said. “Hey from now on you guys call Jimbo okay?” Jim asked. “Whatever you say Jimbo.” Odd said chuckling. “All right everyone, I don't expect Xana to go peacefully, so you'll need to protect the tower in the Forest Region until the materialization is done.” Jeremy said. “Sir yes sir.” Link said saluting. Everyone laughed, even Jim. “All right, I think I'll use every gun that delivers quick and heavy damage.” Link said walking over to the armory. Link put in the door code 696 and walked inside. Link got a chain-gun, the BFG, a plasma gun, a shotgun, and a surplus of grenades. “This should get me by for a while at least.” Link said coming out of the armory with his huge load of fire power. “Whoa, Link's BFG is sure powerful sounding.” Jim said reading the description of the BFG on Link's character card. Jeremy smiled as they went to get Aelita. “ All right Aelita, ready to become human?” Link asked. “Yes I am Link, I can't wait to experience Earth the way you do.” Aelita said happily. Link spotted a crab running to them. “You guys stand back, you'll like the chain-gun.” Link said smiling. Link loaded the belts of ammo from the pack on his back. “Let's rock and roll.” Link said getting ready to fire his chain-gun. Link pulled the trigger on the chain-gun and the rounds fired in a loud racket. The crab was ripped to bits by the 30 caliber armor piercing bullets. “Man that thing is really loud.” Odd said slapping his paw against his ear. Link smiled at Odd and they continued to the designated tower. “Guys 5 mega-tanks coming up from behind you.” Jeremy said into his ear piece. Link turned around and unloaded a huge barrage of chain-gun fire into the first mega-tank. Odd was devritualized in a single last. “Idiot.” Link growled under his breath. Link threw down his chain-gun and pulled up the BFG. “Fry.” Link said pulling the trigger. Another mega-tank was blown to dust by the BFG and the explosion caused the Forest Region to shake violently. “Man I was right that BFG thing is amazing.” Jim whistled as the Forest Region continued to shake. After the Forest Region stopped shaking, they continued on their way. “Alright everyone, all you need to do is protect the tower until the materialization is complete.” Jeremy said. Ulrich, Link and Yumi in a triangle formation around the tower. Link saw looking at him. Link grabbed on of his grenades and tossed it in a high arc. The crab looked at the grenade curiously. The crab realized it's error of looking at the grenade and the crab was turned into scarp as the grenade burst under it. “I give it a 10 out of 10.” Yumi said clapping. Link bowed left and right which made Jim and Jeremy laugh. Yumi was caught off her guard by a surprise attack by a mega-tank and was devirtualized instantly. “YUMI!” Link yelled angrily. Link fired his BFG destroying the mega-tank instantly. “STUPID!” Link yelled at himself. “Hey Link it wasn't your fault.” Yumi said leaning on Jeremy's chair. Link nodded agreeing with her just as Ulrich was devirtualized by the last remaining mega-tank. “WHY YOU MECHANICAL MONSTER!” Link thundered. Link tossed a combat knife that he kept strapped to his ankle. The knife pierced the mega-tank's eye. “All right it's done.” Jeremy said triumphantly. Link began a victory dance as Jeremy divertualized him. Link stood next to the transfer pod next to the one he came out of just in case Aelita needed getting out of the pod. Everyone came next to Link. “Welcome to Earth Aelita.” Link said as the steam hissing from the pod vanished. Aelita smiled at Link as he helped her out of the pod. “Well we had better get to class.” Jeremy said who was able to walk some how. “Hey Jeremy, maybe your ankle wasn't broken maybe you just jammed it to hard.” Link said feeling Jeremy's right ankle. Jeremy nodded as he flexed the ankle. Link, Ulrich, Odd, Jeremy and Aelita headed for History. “Listen Aelita, there's no reason to be worried, it's just a History class.” Link said looking at Aelita's nervous face. “I wish it was a class with computers.” Aelita said. “Aelita, if it was a class with computers you would be the teacher.” Link said smiling and putting an arm around Aelita's shoulders. When Aelita entered the History class, every boy stared at Aelita. “Who does that new girl think she is, all she cares about is having boys around her.” Sissy said angrily. Link heard that and almost fell over laughing. Link looked out the window and could have sworn that he saw Portman, Duke, Mac and The Kid. “How can this be there all dead.” Link said in complete astonishment. “Link what's wrong?” Aelita asked looking out the same window. Link sat down next to Aelita and became silent as stone when the teacher came in. “I see we have a new student here with us I'll let her introduce herself.” the teacher said. Aelita stood up, shaking. “Uh, my name is.” Aelita began trembling. “Here name is Aelita she's my cousin she's very shy.” Odd said standing up. “Well Aelita I hope you'll be very happy here at Kadic.” the teacher said. Aelita smiled as did Link. The bell rang and as they all left Link looked over his shoulder and thought he saw Sarge, stalking him. Link went to a corner and peeked around the blind corner. “Link, are you looking for someone?” Aelita asked. Link felt his heart grow cold as he saw Sarge looking at him and smiling. “Get out here and face me Sarge.” Link growled. Aelita looked where Link was looking and saw Sarge as well. Link grabbed Aelita's hand and they took off down the hall. “Link who was that?” Aelita asked as they ran down the hall at break neck speed. “In short, he was my superior officer and we tried to kill each other.” Link said looking over his shoulder to see if Sarge was following him. Aelita looked at Link shocked but recovered when they saw Jeremy in front of them. “Jeremy Aelita and I are being followed by an old enemy of mine, my best guess is somehow Xana found data on Sarge and has possessed him get Aelita away from Sarge at any cost and if anything gets in your way then KILL IT!” Link yelled. Jeremy nodded and he and Aelita ran for the factory as fast as possible. Link turned around to see Sarge standing before him. Link drew a pistol from the back of his pants and pointed it at Sarge's forehead. “You gonna shoot me boy?” Sarge asked mockingly. “ I was thinking about it.” Link said smiling smugly since Sarge was unarmed. “How many shots you got in that gun?” Sarge asked. “An entire clip you?” Link asked trying not to laugh. “I got none.” Sarge said cracking his knuckles. Link broke the pistol over his knee and leaped on Sarge before he knew what had happened. “You're coming with me.” Link grunted dragging Sarge to the factory. “So Jeremy why does Link want Sarge deleted?” Aelita asked. Jeremy took his time to answer that. “Well Aelita I guess Link and Sarge began to loose trust in each other when Link was on the Mars Research facility Olduvai and eventually it lead to the two of them trying to kill each other and I guess Link won that fight.” Jeremy said thinking deeply. Aelita nodded understanding what Jeremy meant. Jeremy heard a loud thump above them. “I guess Link brought Sarge here so he could kill him without anyone else getting hurt.” Jeremy said. Link pinned Sarge against a wall and began slamming his fists into Sarge's gut. “THIS TIME SARGE STAY DEAD!” Link yelled as he repeatedly drove blow after blow into Sarge's stomach. Link then through Sarge to the ground and stood over him. “ So, I guess you do have a little savage in you.” Sarge said spitting out some blood. Link grabbed Sarge by the scruff of his vest and pulled him very close. “You listen to me you maggot from the Underworld, I am no savage you are, you killed a room full of survivors when they were not even infected and then you shot The Kid in the throat, what is wrong with you, you just don't care about anyone but your reputation, YOU ARE THE WORST MARINE EVER!!” Link roared slamming his foot into Sarge's groin. Sarge groaned as he absorbed the painful blow. Link picked Sarge up by his collar and tossed him into a wall. Aelita came up the elevator and saw Link beating Sarge senseless. Aelita was amazed at Link's strength as he would pick Sarge up and slam him down or suplex him. Link sat on Sarge's chest and started slamming his fists into Sarge's skull. Link grabbed Sarge around the throat and began to strangle him. “You know what Sarge, I'm not going to beat you to death, even though you do deserve a painful death, I'm going to shoot you with your favorite gun the BFG.” Link said putting th door code for the armory. Link came out carrying the BFG and sporting a very big smile. “Well Aelita, would you do a countdown to his death?” Link asked looking at Aelita. “Well sure I guess, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Link fire.” Aelita said. Link pulled the trigger on the BFG and Sarge was instantly melted away. “I hope now that The Kid's soul is avenged.” Link said looking at the ceiling. Aelita looked at Link feeling strange. “Well, we better call everyone so we can shut down Xana.” Link said taking out his communicator. Link tapped the screen and put in Yumi and Ulrich's number. “Yumi, call Ulrich and tell him to come over to the factory so we can end this and tell Ulrich to tell Odd the same thing.” Link said looking at Yumi's face on the communicator's screen. “Alright Link consider it done.” Yumi said hanging up making the screen go blank. Link took Aelita back down the elevator and the three of them sat around while Link told Jeremy and Aelita stories from the Olduvai incident. “Well, at least Mac died and didn't feel it.” Jeremy said when told them when he and the rest of the RRTS found Mac headless. “That is so sad that Mac died and didn't have a chance to defend himself.” Aelita said hugging her knees to her chest. “True but you guys won't believe how many dumb things that Portman would say to women.” Link said smiling to himself. Link told Jeremy and Aelita about when the RRTS arrived in the Olduvai airlock and told two women that this was a level 5 quarantine and that he'd have to strip search them. “It took a lot of will power to not laugh myself into a coma, mostly because Sarge didn't think it was funny even though I did.” Link laughing. “What does it mean to strip search someone?” Aelita asked naively. Link and Jeremy looked at each other caught off guard by this. “Well Aelita, to strip search someone is took take off all their clothes and search their belongings.” Link said turning pink. After everyone had arrived in the factory they went down to the area where the main power switch to the entire factory was located. “Xana, you've given us a lot of grief, but thanks to you we met Aelita so good bye Xana.” Jeremy said looking at the switch. Aelita clutched her head in pain. Link noticed this out of the corner of his eye and had very strong feeling that if they were to shut down Xana, Aelita would be affected as well. Jeremy pulled the switch and Aelita fainted. “AELITA!” Jeremy yelled. “I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN!” Link yelled furiously. Everyone looked at Link with shocked expressions. “It was a gut feeling alright.” Link said heatedly at the looks Jeremy and Yumi were giving him. Link stormed away for a reason even he did not understand. Link went to the armory in the northern part of the factory that Sam had built for him. Link typed in the door code and a voice sounded above his head. “RRTS Special Ops clearance verified.” the security scanner chirped. Link grabbed his black armor vest and his ear piece. Link grabbed the chain-gun from the wall. “Handle I. D. Manslayer.” the gun said. Link then pulled the BFG from its stand. “BFG clearance accepted, handle I.D. Manslayer.” the BFG beeped. Link didn't know why, but he felt his should go into the park armed, as if he knew that some kind of monster was waiting for him. Link went through the woods slowly, and he could feel eyes watching his every move. “Come out here, whoever you are.” Link whispered to his cowardly prey. Link heard a growling sound near some trees and let several chain-gun rounds loose. Link walked over and saw a dead wolf corpse. “No normal wolf is this large and it isn't a Warg, wait a second it eyes have Xana's symbol he has defiled these woods.” Link said to himself with great hatred. Link slung the chain-gun on to his back and lifted the BFG. “All right you Xana creeps get out here.” Link said in a challenging tone. Link heard laughter from behind him, spun around pointed his BFG and saw a huge centaur monster in front of him. “Who the hell are you?” Link said aiming the BFG at the centaur's chest. The centaur laughed at Link, as if he should know who the centaur is. “If you must know I am Xana.” Xana said snorting. “How in the name of Nayru are you out of Lyoko?” Link asked putting his finger on the BFG's trigger. “Why would you shoot me, I have done nothing to you directly.” Xana snorted again. Link face screwed up with a new level of anger and hatred. “That is bullshit Xana, somehow you brought Sarge back from the dead, and you made me think I saw my old teammates so you tormented me you cheap lying bastard!” Link thundered. “So I guess I have attacked you directly.” Xana said chuckling. Link pulled the trigger and Xana was turned to dust. “That wasn't the real Xana I know that much.” Link said looking at the large line and clumps of trees that had been caught in the BFG's blast. Link pulled out his communicator and called Jeremy. “Jeremy what I'm about to tell you is true, I just lasted Xana with my BFG.” Link said looking at the screen even though Jeremy couldn't see him. “How is that possible, no towers were reported being activated by the super calculator, but just maybe when Xana encountered you he didn't leave a trail of data that I could see so maybe he doesn't show up when he matrializes himself.” Jeremy said. “That's the thing that I was thinking.”Link said turning his communicator off. Link continued to walk through the forest and met many Hell Knights and Barons. “Xana, if you're trying to bar the way, you're doing a crappy job.” Link said as he blew a Baron to bits with his BFG. Link grabbed an ST grenade and twisted the top off and pressed the blinking red button. Link tossed the ST grenade at a Hell Knight and the ST grenade's energy blast vaporized the Hell Knight almost instantly. “I love these ST grenades.” Link said smiling at the grenades strapped around his belt. Link turned around to find another Xana possessed wolf. “You wolves are nothing but over grown flea bitten mongrels.” Link scoffed as he blasted the wolf with the last round in his BFG. “Well this sorta sucks, no more ammo for my BFG, ah well I've still got a load of ST grenades, the chain-gun and my chainsaw.” Link said laughing at the irony of using the BFG a little too much. Another wolf leaped out at Link, Link turned the chainsaw on and cut the wolf's head in two. “Messy.” Link said spitting some wolf blood out of his mouth. An entire wolf hunting pack rushed Link. Link grabbed another ST grenade and the blast disintegrated the entire pack. “All too easy.” Link chuckled. Back in the factory, Jeremy did a scan on Aelita after she woke up. “Just as I thought, Xana planted a virus in you Aelita, so you'd always be linked to him, and so you should know Link just turned a clone of Xana into microscopic dust with his BFG.” Jeremy said smiling smugly. “Well I bet Xana will consider Link a very dangerous threat.” Jim said. “I think you're right Jim, and not only will Xana consider Link a problem, he'll most likely be going after Link much more than just the rest of us, I don't think that Xana has ever had a match and I don't think that he knows how to handle it.” Jeremy said leaning back in his chair. “Jeremy, why would Xana battle Link when he knows that Link is more than a match for him?” Aelita asked turining her head to one side. “I'm not entirely sure why Aelita, but my theory is that Xana wanted to test Link's courage and strength and he got more than he expected.” Jeremy said laughing at how Xana was destroyed before he could react. Aelita giggled softly while Jim thought this through. Link came up behind Jeremy panting. “What happened to you Link, you're covered in blood?” Jeremy asked looking at Link's armor which was covered in thick black and red blood. “Well Jeremy, Xana tried to stop me from getting here by using wolves, Hell Knights and Barons but to no success.” Link said as he sat down. Link took his weapons off and put his belt down gently, so he wouldn't set off any of the ST grenades. “What type of grenades are those Link?” Jeremy asked. “Those Jeremy are ST grenades, upon detonation the ST grenade explodes in a devastating energy blast with a 5 meter radius.” Link explained. Jeremy seemed very impressed. “Hey Jeremy I'll take Aelita to Yumi's house just in case Xana sends any creatures after us.” Link said putting his belt back on. “Sure, 10 bucks says he's still mad as a hornet at you.” Jeremy said grinning. Link took Aelita's hand and took her to the armory. Link got an automatic shotgun, his machine gun, his rifle and more BFG ammo. “Let's go Aelita your castle awaits.” Link said smiling. Aelita took Link's hand and they left the factory. “Link, doesn't all that weaponry weigh a lot?” Aelita asked looking at the large amount of firepower. “Used to, but not anymore.” Link said flexing his large forearm muscles. Link used his communicator to scan for any foes following them. “Good, nothings following us, strange but good.” Link said putting his communicator back into his pocket. Link thought he heard something moving behind Aelita. “Aelita, take cover soemthing's behind you.” Link said grabbing his automatic shotgun and cocking it. Aelita nodded and got behind a tree. Link turned around and saw something moving towards him. “Come out with your hands or claws up where I can see them and you won't be shot to bits.” Link said activating his guns light. The creature came into view. It was one of those weird half human undead creatures. The undead man ran over to where Aelita was hiding. “STOP!” Link hollered firing every shell in his shotgun. The undead had its lower half blown away. Link went over to the twitching thing and crushed its throat. “Stay.” Link said kicking the dead flesh away. Aelita looked at Link amazed with his will to protect her. Aelita spotted a booth. “Link is that a scanner?” Aelita asked. “No it's not come with me I'll show you what it is.” Link said grabbing Aelita by the hand. For the next 10 minuets, Aelita and Link took pictures inside the boot. As they neared Yumi's house Link grabbed a rose that was nearby and gave to Aelita. “Link this flower is so pretty.” Aelita said sniffing it. Link had to smile at Aelita “You know Aelita, you remind me a lot of myself when I saw the outside world.” Link said putting an arm around Aelita's shoulders. Aelita giggled at Link and they stopped in front of the gate in front of Yumi's house. “Thank you Link, even though I have a virus in me this has been the best night in my life.” Aelita said. Aelita leaned forward and kissed Link on his cheek. Link felt himself blush and went back to his room. Link layed down on his bed and fell asleep quickly. The next morning, Link woke up rather early. Link checked his calender and fell his heart strings being tugged at. Today was the very day that the Olduvai incident had occurred. All of the awful memories from that horrid place came back into his mind like an almighty flood. Link went down to the factory to see Sam. Link found Sam slumped against the wall fast asleep. “Hey Sam, get up.” Link said quietly shaking Sam. Sam looked at Link sourly at first but then smiled sweetly. “Hey honey, what day is it?” Sam asked. “Unfortunately, this is the day that in the future the Olduvai incident happens.” Link said grimly. Sam felt her heart grow cold at the mention of the name Olduvai. Link sat next to Sam and she put her head donw on Link's shoulder. “So the situation with Xana won't be over for some time huh, he's smarter than I thought.” Sam said thinking deeply. Link nodded at that and almost fell asleep again. Sam gave Link a gentle kiss on the cheek which woke Link up. Sam giggled when Link gave her a playfull shove. Sunlight soon poured through the dimly lit factory giving the factory the look of an old haunted house. “You know Link, this place actually looks decent when the light of the sun fills this up.” Sam said looking around the factory. Link looked around and he had to agree. Jeremy and Aelita came in and saw Link and Sam. “Hey there love birds.” Jeremy said smiling smugly. Link saw a chunk of rotting wood and threw it at Jeremy. Jeremy ducked just in time and the wood hit the wall just behind Jeremy's head. “The next time you say something stupid like that I'll hit you and then snap your glasses in half.” Link said smiling at Jeremy. Jeremy stuck his tongue out at Link and Link began chasing Jeremy around the factory at top speed. Jeremy pulled Sam in front of him, using her like a human shield. “Link get back, I've got a woman and I know how to use her.” Jeremy said threateningly. Link put up his hands in mock surrender. “Jeremy, just put the woman down and I won't hurt you.” Link said reasoning with him. “Alright then Link, you win I'll put the woman down and we'll call it even.” Jeremy said putting Sam down. Link walked toward Jeremy with his hand extended in friendship. Link and Jeremy shook hands and ended their fake fude. “There, you see Aelita there are still gentlemen in this world, and one of them is under my control.” Sam said. Link looked at Sam with one eyebrow raised. “You want to run that by me again Sam I didn't quite hear you.” Link said digging one finger into his ear. Sam looked at Link, as if doubting he would do anything to her. “What are you going to do to me?” Sam asked. Link walked up to Sam and he stared her down. “Nothing just this.” Link said. Link began tickling Sam furiosly. Sam fell to the ground wiggling on the cold ground like a fish out of water. “OK, Link I'm sorry for that stupid comment now let me go!” Sam shouted as Link continued to administer the tickle torture. Link helped Sam up and apologized for tickling her silly. “Well unfortunately, we have to go to Physics.” Link said checking his solid gold pocket watch that Milly had given him for Christmas. Jeremy nodded with excitement and the three of them went to Physics. “Sure just leave me here, I'll keep myself busy doing nothing.” Sam said. Link felt himself shaking with laughter as he saw Sam shoot him a rude hand gesture. “Sam is one of a kind, and let's keep it that way.” Link said smiling back at the factory. Jeremy and Aelita laughed. Link sat mext to Aelita so she wouldn't get nervous. As the class progressed, Link felt himself about to fall asleep. Aelita leaned close to Link. “Link wake up.” Aelita said shaking Link gently. Link looked around wildly. “What'd I miss?” Link asked blearily. Aelita couldn't help but laugh at Link. Just as the class was close to ending, a cankcralot burst into the hallway. Ms. Hertz was opening the door and saw the cankcralot. Link pushed Ms. Hertz back into the room and pulled the combat knife from his boot and gripped it in his hands. Link eased the door open, to see the cankcralot searching for someone. Link flicked his wrist and the knife pierced the cankcralot like it's armor was made of styrofoam. Link picked his knife back up and when he looked up he couldn't believe what he saw. “Yo Link, it's me Duke.” Duke said striding up to the Hylian. “Duke, you're here but how?” Link asked thinking that he was seeing things. “Don't really know, but hey the others are here as well.” Duke said smiling. Link grabbed Duke up in his arms, spun him around and gave Duke a bone crushing hug. “You've gotten stronger Manslayer.” Duke said patting Link on his shoulder. The Kid came running down the hall, with what appeared to be oil on his face and armor. “Just greased one of those crab things, it didn't put up much of a fight.” Kid said smiling. Link gave Kid a salute and Kid returned it. “Hey there Boss Man.” Destroyer said holding his chain-gun like it was no problem. “That's you're name, BossMan.” Portman said checking his Plasma Gun. Link went back into the class room and got everyone out. “Portman, make sure nothing happens to these people, Kid go with Portman, make sure he doesn't do anything stupid, Destroyer, you come with me, Duke go and find Goat and tell him to meet us at the old factory, and if you see Mac get him to come to the factory as well.” Link ordered. The group nodded and split. Destroyer guarded from the rear. “Hey Destroyer, isn't that chain-gun heavy?” Odd asked. “No.” Destroyer said as they made their way down the sewer. Link let everyone go up ladder, making sure no freak from Olduvai was follwing them. “Hey Destroyer, you're pretty big how tall are you?” Ulrich asked. “6'6, weigh 220 pounds of nothing but pure muscle.”Destroyer said flexing his bulging bisceps. Aelita felt her face burn when Destroyer gave her a grin. “Girl's cute, how many boyfriends you got?” Destroyer asked holding the elevator open with his chain-gun. “I think I should answer, that would be BossMan.” Odd sang. Destroyer couldn't help but laugh at Odd. “You know kid, you and Portman would get along great.” Destroyer said. Jeremy modified the computer so the rest of the RRTS squad wouldn't loose their memories when they went back to the past. Link told the entire RRTS squad the situation concerning Xana and Aelita. “This Xana guy sounds almost as bad as Sarge.” Destroyer said lifting some chain-gun ammo over his shoulder. Link nodded and tried to contact Mac over the commlink. “Mac can you here me?” Link asked asked adjusting the channel on his headset. “Yeah BossMan, I read you loud and clear.” Mac said walking down the Gym hallway,using his gun's light to see in the semi-darkness. “OK Mac, come to the old factory on the double.” Link said as they prepared to enter Lyoko. “All right BossMan, be there soon as I can.” Mac said. Link nodded and contacted the Kid. “Hey Kid, how is everythin on your end?” Link asked. “Everything seems quiet sir, I guess Xana's minions are more concentrated at you than anyone else, and everyone is safe.” Kid said into his head set. “Good job Kid.” Link said turning his headset off. “Destroyer, stay here and protect Jeremy and make sure nothing comes through this factory.” Link said. Destroyer nodded and stood facing the elevator. Jeremy typed so fast that his hands seemed to blur. Link landed right next to Odd in the Forest Reigion. Link went to his armory and took the BFG from its stand. “BFG clearance verified, handle ID BossMan.” the gun chirped. Link smiled at the mention of his new nickname. “Jeremy, as soon as Goat gets to the factory send him to our position.” Link said into his headset. “You got it BossMan.” Jeremy said into his headset smiling. Link aimed his BFG at an approaching Hell Knight. Link pulled the trigger sending the Hell Knight into oblivion.”That was almost too easy.” Link said putting the BFG on his back sling. Link drew his handgun and loaded a clip into the gun. “Time to go to work.” Link said looking around for any Xana monsters. Jeremy heard the elevator and Destroyer aimed his chain-gun at the elevator coming down. “Goat, you should have used your headset to tell me it was you, I almost shot that elevator to shreds.” Destroyer said lowering his gun. “Goat go into that room and I'll send you to the others.” Jeremy said pointing to the room next to him. Goat nodded and stepped into the first scanner to his left. A few seconds later Goat was in the Forest Reigion. “BossMan, its Goat can you hear me?” Goat asked into his headset. “Loud and clear Goat, good to have you back.” Link said into his headset. “I'm heading to your position, try and stay there as long as you can.” Goat said moving through the trees carefully. Goat turned around and saw a crab walking closer to him. “Suck on this.” Goat said raising his double barreled multi round pump action shotgun and fired. The crab was sent into the air and vanished before it hit the ground. “Metal moron.” Goat said kissing the silver crucifix hanging around his neck. Goat came up behind Link, and Link almost shot Goat through the forehead. “Goat will you please not do that, next time I might not be able to stop myself from putting a bullet through your skull.” Link said smiling at Goat. “Sorry about that BossMan.” Goat said looking down. “Hey it's okay Goat I'm not going to mad at you for something like this.” Link said smiling. Goat actually smiled at Link and they continued on their way. Goat suddenly whipped himself around thinking he saw something moving behind a tree. “Jeremy what do you see?” Link asked into his headset. Jeremy typed a few keys and saw something on the monitor. “It's really big, but it's bigger than a Hell Knight, what is it?” Jeremy asked himself. “Baron.” Link said to himself. “Jeremy, I hate to say this but, contact Portman on comm channel 5990, and tell him to come to the factory.” Link said into his headset. “Sure thing Link, I don't know who this Portman guy is but don't blame me if something stupid happens.” Jeremy said smiling at the screen. “Shutp the hell up Jeremy.” Link growled. Jeremy turned the dial on his own headset to 5990 like Link said. “Portman, this is Jeremy I'm a friend of BossMan's, if you know where the old factory is get here on the double.” Jeremy said. “Whatever kid.” Portman said exiting the school. Portman saw the old factory and snorted. “That place looks like a whorehouse used to be there.” Portman said as he crossed the old metal bridge. “Destroyer, this is Portman, I'm coming down the elevator so don't blast me.” Portman said tapping his headset. “You got it Portman.” Destroyer said. Portman exited the rickety old elevator and looked around the room, apparently amazed. “Nice lab.”Portman said. “It is isn't it.” Jeremy said turning around to face Portman. Portman entered the scanner Goat had used and landed on his back next to Yumi. “Hey there.” Portman said slyly. “Don't start Portman.” Link said looking Portman down. Portman shrugged his shoulders at his CO, feining ignorance. “You better not think I'm easy Portman, I'll smack you across the field if you try hitting on me.” Yumi hissed at Portman. Portman looked at Yumi, apparently impressed. “ I like a girl with a little spice.” Portman said. Link put his pistol into the skin of Portman's forehead. “Portman, if you don't shut your damn mouth I will put an entire clip into your skull.” Link barked. Portman looked at Link, looking scared. Yumi felt her heart laping against her chest when Link defended her honor. Aelita made it to the tower, for some reason they didn't see anymore resistance. “Hey Jeremy, don't you think it's a little on the side of akward that Xana didn't send the Baron after us?” Link asked into his microphone. “You know Link, you are wuite right, it is weird yet nice that the Baron didn't try hunting you all down.” Jeremy said leaning on the computer console. Aelita tapped the interface making the tower deactivate. “Return to the past now.” Jeremy said hitting a key.
End Chapter 6
Chapter7: The Arrival Of William
Link, Ulrich, Odd and Yumi waited in the Desert Reigion. Odd was riding his new vehicle, the Overboard. Ulrich was riding his Overcycle. Yumi was riding her new Overwing. “Hey BossMan, where's you new ride?” the Kid asked. Jeremy smiled at the Kid, as if Link and Jeremy shared a secret. “Link, your new set of wheels is just behind those rocks to your left.” Jeremy said smiling at the screen. Link went to the west, and felt himself smiling. Link was looking at a huge truck like tank. The truck had reinforced armor plaiting and huge wheels. Link opened the drivers door and was amazed at what he saw. “ I like it Jeremy.” Link said sitting at the wheel. Link looked at the wheel with the eye of a jewler. The wheel was pure black leather. “HOLY CRUD!” Odd yelled when he saw the truck. “Everyone, I give you the Overtruck.” Jeremy said leaning back in his chair, admiring his own handiwork. “Hey, why does Link get a whole truck?” Odd asked. “Well Odd, Link has to carry much more fire power than the rest of you.” Jeremy said ending the argument. Link licked his fingers and touched his left hip and made a hissing sound. “Oh Link I should tell you that you get a few new toys and your favorite weapon gets an upgrade.” Jeremy said leaning back in his chair and smiling. Odd looked at Link completely shocked. Link typed in the code 9978 and the back of his Overtruck slid open upwards. Link saw a new weapon and took it off the wall eagerly. “Link, you have just chosen the new Rocket Launcher.” Jeremy said seeing a pop up on his monitor. “Hey Aelita, can you get creative and make a rock appear?” Link asked. Aelita nodded and made sang making a rock come out in front of him. Link looked through the scope on his Rocket Launcher and aimed at the middle of the rock. Link pulled the heavy trigger and a large black rocket shot out. The rocket then split into 20 smaller rockets. The rock was blown into dust. Link looked at the Rocket Launcher and kissed it. “That Rocket Launcher obivously has the ability of a cluster missle.” Jeremy said admiring the read out on the Rocket Launcher. Link went back into his Overtruck and grabbed his BFG. “Link your BFG has had a major power upgrade.” Jeremy said smiling. Link felt like Christmas had just come. “Uh guys, I hate to interrupt your thinking, but you've got company, problem is I don't know what it excatly is.” Jeremy said looking at his monitor curiosly. Duke and Portman took a look at the monitor as well. “Whatever that thing is, I' love to see it live through a shot from BossMan's new BFG.” Portman snorted. Duke nodded, agreeing with Portman for once. Odd saw the new creature and felt his stomach drop. The new monster looked like a spider, yet it only had 4 legs instead of 8. The new monster lifted its two front legs and opened fire. Link pulled the trigger on his new and improved BFG. The blue blob shot forward with the sound of an exploding nuke. The new monster was completely vaporized. The ground was mostly obliterated. “HOLY SNOT ON A STICK!” Odd yelled in shock. Ulrich stared at Link, impressed and scared. “Damn!” Kid said looking at the destruction caused by the new and improved BFG. Link hopped into his Overtruck and pulled Aelita in. Link turned the keys and revved the engine. “Listen to that kitty purr.” Link said listening to the roar of the engine. Link found a CD player and hit the play button. The display on the CD player flashed Can't Touch This by MC Hammer. Link hit the gas and raced toward a neutral tower. Ulrich came up beside Link on his Overcycle. “Pull over boy, I giving you a speeding ticket.” Ulrich said waving at Link. Link stuck his tongue out at Ulrich and sped up. “Man, Link is doing 245, that Overtruck is fast.” Duke said looking at the monitor. “I've got to get one of those, pick up a few girls and other things.” Portman said, smiling. Link heard that and flipped a switch so he could talk to Portman. “I heard that Portman, you aren't man enough to handle a truck like this you loser.” Link said smiling to himself. Portman said something that made Duke whack him on his head. “What did Portman say Duke?” Link asked. “You know the usual, said he could pick up more girls than you could in 5 minuets.” Duke said chuckling.
