Chapter 8: Xana's End

"Yumi, how are they, ow!" Ulrich asked as he held his right arm. He was confused on why the damage still lingered. He also couldn't understand why he didn't have any feeling in his right arm yet.

"They're okay. However, you aren't." she said as he came closer to the computer. "Guys, be careful not to get hit! If you do, then the attack will travel through to the real world. Ulrich can't feel his right arm, which I assume blocked that last attack for you Jeremy." She said, as Ulrich stood behind her.

In Lyoko, Jeremy was having a hard time hitting Xana. Not only was he trying to hit everything with his distant electric attack, but also when Jeremy would come close, he would just create his electricity barrier, which Jeremy would dodge out of the way by moving backwards all the time. Odd had another reload for his arrows transmitted to him, and he was trying to chip away at Xana's health points, by sniping him with his arrows. Jeremy was thinking of how to get to him.

Jeremy knew that having Odd still here meant that he could be under an attack by Xana, thus either crippling or kill him with his electricity. Getting close to Odd, he stabbed him real quickly with his sword of ice. "Sorry Odd, but I can't defeat Xana and protect you at the same time." He said as he took the sword out of Odd. Odd devirtualized and went back to the real world. "Yumi, go to find and enter two things. First, Vir-usle, then second, health upgrade. I just hope that they are there."

"Why did Jeremy do that? I was the one who was kicking Xana butt." Odd thought to himself as he entered the elevator that would take him to the computer room. Once he saw Ulrich, he understood why Jeremy did what he did. It was to protect him from a fate like or worse than Ulrich's. "Thanks Jeremy." Odd thought to himself for the act that he thought was dishonorable and not a good idea at the time.

"They're here Jeremy, but you only have fifty life points left after that last attack, and the sword takes forty health points to activate. Are you sure you don't want it the other way around?" Yumi asked as she found the first program. Finding the second program, she suddenly realized why he said it in that order. "Never mind Jeremy, now what?" she asked as she sat, waiting for him to answer. She had no idea what to do with these two useful programs. "Hey wait a second, why didn't you activate Health Upgrade on us?"

"Here's what you have to do Yumi, go to my card, and equip the two programs to me, then leave the rest to me. I'll make this world a world without danger, or die trying. Also, I was acting on a hunch. I didn't know that they would be there. I guess luck was with me." Jeremy said as he dodged another attack from Xana.

Yumi pulled his card up onto the monitor and then maximized the programs. She clicked on the Vir-usle and dragged it over to him. She then got a confirmation window saying that are you sure you want to equip, She answered yes and then did the same thing for the Health Upgrade.

Jeremy felt his health points falling as he summoned the Vir-usle to his hands, but then doubling and refilling afterwards. It was a good thing that this sword only took health points when it was summoned, and not when it was used, otherwise Jeremy would have two things to worry about, Xana and the Sword. He only wanted to worry about his opponent, not the weapon to destroy him as well.

Xana knew that blade would be his downfall. He started to back away, trembling in fear just by the sight of it. "That blade was not supposed to be activated at all! It was so hidden that only a hacker could find it." Xana said, stepping backwards with fear written all over him. Jeremy kept coming closer and Xana backing away, until Xana came to the back of a cliff.

"I would say that there are two ways to die Xana. Either the hard way with this sword or the easy way with that void, but I know that you would take the hard way and I'm not risking myself falling over that cliff. Jeremy said, as he rose the sword into a defense position, waiting for Xana to make a move, and he did. Xana teleported away from the cliff and far away from Jeremy, not only for his offensive purposes, but for his defensive ones as well.

"If that's the game you want to play, then fine." Running as quick as a ninja under the invisible ability, he slashed Xana three times. One time for Odd, one for Aelita, and one for himself. Since Xana had 980 HP left after all of Odd's arrows, he was then cut down to three hundred less health points, leaving him at 680. "Remember this Xana, never mess with my friends, especially my girlfriend. Otherwise you'll be dead before you know it. Going around in a circle, he was able to slash Xana seven times, reducing him to no more then ashes and memories. "I'm sorry I couldn't save you Aelita. I hope this is enough to repent." He said to himself as he heard Yumi saying his catchphrase.

Another source of evil was witnessing the short and quick battle of Xana's defeat. This person felt the pain that followed Xana's death. "I swear that whoever you are kid, I'll make your life as bad as mine, maybe even worse than mine." He said as he started chuckling to himself, making sure that no one had found him, especially since he had 1500 health points and not vulnerable to anything at all, not even that sword. It would be as hazardous to that person as his cameras once were.

After the battle and Yumi returned to the past, Jeremy was heartbroken. Not only was he never to create an Anti-virus in time so that they could have normal lives, but also that his presence in Lyoko had no effect, not even the one he wanted, which was to protect Aelita! Searching the supercomputer for any help, he wasn't worried about classes, since it was a Saturday once again. Only one thing was different: Aelita was dead. Those three words echoed throughout Jeremy's head as he continued to search every file for anything to bring his love back.

"Hmm, what's this?" Jeremy asked as he double-clicked on a folder titled "Back-up". Boy was he in for a surprise when he saw something that he never thought to see again, or should I say someone.

END OF CHAPTER

Dragon and Sword Master: I must be becoming more like Mr. Evil everyday, since I end all of my chapters of this story in a cliffhanger. Anyways, I do have this whole story done, just waiting on the reviewers to give me some feedback. I'll have my sister do the "Fic of the Week" from now on for this story, so that she can have at least something to do. Also, the "Vir-usle" is a little play on two words. Delete the hyphen in the middle, and you have Virusle. Take the le out and you have Virus. Now, delete the first two and last two letters of delete and you have `le', therefore, Vir-usle.

Phoenix and Staff Master: Thanks big brother. Anyways, the "Fic of the Week" is none other than the story known as Vanishing Point by Ransomed Heart. Summary:
