Code Lyoko: Revolutions and Evolutions

Chapter 95

AN: This chapter came after a fair bit of work and a prayer, and I'm delighted with how it turned out. I hope you all enjoy it. I'll see you next chapter.

Pagliacci-11.

"It's as you said it would be, Commander," Yolanda replied as she looked over the battered body of Jeremy on the operation table.

Natasha looked at the nearly drowned boy and replied, "He was smart popping the pill as he fell. It undid significant damage to his skull and knee. A few broken fingers were the worst of it. Sylvia has played her hand, and as she enters Lyoko, she'll be isolated the moment she enters the tower. The creatures will siege against her, and she'll be officially under lockdown."

Natasha looked at Yolanda, "We have time now. In accordance with the Ministry's protocol, they always do comprehensive sweeps for an extension. As soon as they find that Sylvia has one active, they'll comb over all her locations. As the medical officer, you will be able to point in the right direction, and when North-Gate is officially dissolved, Sylvia will have no more trump cards to play. The Ministry will then execute her for an attempted shadow coup while under house arrest, and this situation will remedy itself.

I have spoken with Aelita as to what our plan is, and she knows most of it, except what we have done with Belpois here. We've kept her in the dark to let her rage build legitimately. As to what will likely fall out over the next week, and when we direct her anger at Sylvia, we can tell the Ministry that Aelita acted justly in killing our dearly departed sister for the shedding of truly innocent blood."

"And you, Natasha? What will become of you?" Yolanda asked.

"I will fulfill my promise to you and let you return to your Aelita, to your lover's arms. Your task is finished for now. Knowing how this sphere works, I will take my place here and make my North-Gate on the ashes of what Sylvia has attempted to build, only improve it.

I will bring North-Gate to fruition, but it must come naturally, as it did for us back home. It must be birthed out of human anguish, the huddled masses yearning to be free, not an imposed force upon an unwilling people. My reasonings are still the same as with my own people, but here I will nurture my cause and let it grow strong in the hearts of the people with time. In time they will embrace me both simple and the intellectual, and then I shall come back for you to achieve unity between our peoples."

Yolanda nodded, and she went to a cabinet and took out a dense file and handed it to Natasha, "Your files of all you and your overseer will need to establish yourself here for the purpose. When you need me, I shall come with the army. Does this mean you won't go home at all from hereon?"

"Correct. There's nothing left for me when Sylvia's finished. The Ministry will hold an election and meritocracy as father set up will establish a new leader. A leader, the people, will adore and what comes of them will be its own set of affairs." Natasha looked over the dossier, "You've done well, Heidi, very well. You sent the salvage drones as per my request?"

"I have. All major medical facilities are cloaked for your purposes from the North-Gate dossier as they are marked under repurposed, and so they won't show up under a comprehensive search. The robotic factory equally has been dismantled the work crews sent home. Itzhak is ready for production, as is Lisiek to supplement the factory's power."

Natasha nodded, "Excellent." She looked at Jeremy as she closed the envelope, "Take care of the boy and keep him on IV and on the catheter. The medicine we've given him should keep him under until this is all finished. Once we have finished, we'll restore him to self-sufficiency through the therapy chamber they had Pinchon in."
