Code Lyoko : Virtualization

What Happened?

Few Months Earlier...

It was a dark and quiet night in town. The people were sleeping, while others next door were still awake about to sleep. Above all, it was all too well and peaceful. The scene then focused to a home with a black gate in front of it. Coming out slowly was Yumi, as she sneaks out. She picks up her phone and answers, "Jeremy, I'm on my way."
Before she could reach the gate, Hiroki slowly opens up the door again and sees Yumi and calls out her name.
"Shh, Hiroki. Be quiet. Our parents are asleep." She says quietly. "Do you really wanna wake them up at this hour?"
Hiroki rubbing his eyes because he just woke up. "Where are you going at this hour?" He says quietly as Yumi told him to.
"It's none of your business, Hiroki."
"Oh come on, sis." Hiroki insisted, begging to see what she's up to.
"I said no." Yumi responds back.
Hiroki remembered and took count explaining to Yumi about all the times she would leave just to go with her friends when Jeremy would call. She was so persistent at times, she would even do his homework in exchange for his silence when she'd leave his house, sometimes favors as well.
"Come on sis," Hiroki continued, holding his big sister as he got closer, "Just this once, please! I won't tell anybody. Promise. I'll do your homework for a month," trying to bargain with her just this once. Yumi pulls herself away from him as she continues to answer him with the same answer she gave to him the first time. Hiroki drops to the floor as Yumi breaks free.
"Listen, Hiroki," she began to tell him. "Right now is not a good time."
"It's a never a good time." Hiroki answers back with his feet criss crossed apple sauce on the floor wrapping both arms across to his chest and takes a hard breather shaking his head until it goes down.
"You know," Yumi smiles at him, "you could do my homework for a whole year for what it's worth." She says sarcastically. She then goes down on one knee and tells him "but you're not ready, yet. You're still too young. Maybe one day I'll tell you about it. When this is all over." Hiroki takes notice and looks up and asks, "When what is over?" Yumi stays quiet looking away with a serious, worried face. "I have to go." As she opens up the gate, she looks at her brother and tells him gently, "Go to sleep, Hiroki." She then smiles at her little brother, "I'll be back. I promise." Hiroki gets up and scoffs as he puts his hands in his pockets, "Yeah. You always say that."
He walks back up the steps.
"Hey." Yumi calls out.
Hiroki turns his head around looking at his sister with a sad, upsetting face.
"I love you." She smiles, leaning her head outside in front of the gate.
He looks at her for a moment and slowly smiles. Yumi's phone rings nearly ruining the moment. Yumi answers, "Jeremy? Yeah. I'm on my way." She hangs up her phone and starts running while Hiroki watches.
The scene ends in Hiroki's view watching his final moments seeing Yumi run as he slowly closes the door in front of him until the room is dark and the sound of the door clicking onto the wall fully shut.

In darkness, Hiroki can hear his father calling his name.
"Hiroki", His voice echoes out to him.
"Hiroki. Hiroki. Hiroki" The echoes fade and finally he hears it loud and clear, finally waking up.
"Huh?" He gets up sitting straight away from the car door.
"Wait, what?" Looking around confused. He sees himself in the car sitting next to his father in the passenger side, again. He was so confused. Where is Laura? Where is Tamiya? What happened to the factory? Lyoko? Was it all a dream?
Hiroki gets off as he approaches the front entrance of Kadic Academy.
His father gets off, too as they reach the front entrance. Hiroki's father hugs him unexpectedly while Hiroki was taking a moment looking at the view.
"Ugh! Stop it! You're - " Hiroki quickly closed his mouth.
"C'mon, son. It's your first day of school. You need to lighten up a bit. Your mother and I put in a lot of effort to get you a dorm at the academy. You're going to have fun like - "
"Like Yumi?" Hiroki asked in a normal voice tone.
"Yes, exactly. Now don't forget. Today is your first big day of school. Don't forget your luggage, son." He pulls it out gently.
"Yeah, yeah okay. Look, I got to go. See ya !" Hiroki snatches the luggage away from him and takes off.
His father sighs, "Kids. Just like his sister."
Card begin to honk. "Hey, hurry up will you!" As voices begin to rise.
The old man snaps out of it and makes a run towards the car.
Hiroki walks and looks around as if he's already been here. He sits on the bench and rubs his hands on the seat.
"This feels so familiar." He says to himself. When suddenly, he hears a familiar voice.
"Hiroki!" Johnny screams out loud as he comes rapidly sliding in.
Quickly, Hiroki grabs his luggage as he swiftly moves away. He turned away just in time. Unfortunately for Johnny, though, he slides to the bench and down to the ground.
"Hey are you okay?" Hiroki asks.
"No." Johnny just landing face first. He wipes his face and asks, "This mud smells really weird."
Hiroki leans in on him to take a smell. "Eww! That's nasty mud. It smells like your mom's meat loaf, Johnny." Hiroki laughs and then suddenly, he gets a vision about what really happened. He remembered that he and Johnny fell after colliding together, falling down to the mud. And he said the same thing then. Also, it was him who got the "nasty mud" on his nice, buttoned shirt. Not Johnny. "What's going on?"
"Huh?" Johnny interrupting his thinking face. "What do you mean what's going on? Can't you see I just fell and - eww, gross!" Johnny smelling the bad odor.
Then, Hiroki remembered Johnny saying, "Hey look, it's your girlfriend!" Johnny yells out.
"Milly!" Hiroki says running towards her.
The girls see him coming. Tamiya sees him running as she gets a vision too. She remembered Hiroki running to the factory with a mysterious girl to an abandoned factory. She began holding her head from the visions she had. It was too much. Milly noticed. Instead of saying hello to Hiroki, she turned her attention to Tamiya.
"Tamiya, you okay?" she asked concerning by the way she looked as Tamiya was just zoning out not even paying attention to her.
"Tamiya." Hiroki runs toward the girls.
"It's Tamiya. She doesn't look too good."
Suddenly, Tamiya snapped out of it as she grasped Hiroki's wrist. He was surprised. Tamiya smiled at him and said, "Hiroki?"
"Yeah?" He asked.
"What's going on?" Looking around, Tamiya remembered everything. She looked as if she saw deja Vu.
"What happened?"
The three were silent. Milly confused about the situation while Tamiya and Hiroki looked around again scanning the area. Then, looked eye to eye. That's when they realized, something was up. And Hiroki asked himself, "Yeah, what did happen?"
