Plus One (Code Lyoko: Ulrich)

Chapter 7: Satellite

The two girls also glanced over at the teacher's table. When they looked back, Odd and Ulrich had already snuck away.

Mel sighed.

"Those idiots better not get caught." She said and Yumi nodded.

****

Mel was sitting on Jeremy's bed with Kiwi in her lap as she rubbed the dog's belly whilst Yumi stood by the computer with Jeremy typing away on it.

Odd then came into the room with an arm full of phones, Ulrich not far behind him.

"Mission accomplished." Odd said as he dropped the phones on the bed beside and Mel.

Mel gave them a once over as Kiwi hopped off her lap to sniff them, before spotting her phone and taking it.

"Let's hope that nobody finds out." Yumi said.

"I'd rather hope that we're worried over nothing." Odd said as he picked up his phone and Ulrich found his phone too.

"For now, the scan hasn't found an activated tower." Jeremy said.

"I haven't seen anything either." Aelita said. "False alarm."

Jeremy then got up with a gasp as he noticed the symbol on their phones.

"Xana!"

****

"Why would Xana be interested in mobile phones?" Ulrich wondered.

"That's what I'm hoping to find out by checking out the school's antenna." Jeremy said as he held a device in his hand.

"I'm off to the meeting I promised Sissi." Yumi said as she ran off to the Auditorium.

The remaining four all made their way up to the roof where they found Coach Jim messing with a wire.

"Hey, who let you guys up here?" Coach Jim asked them. "Trying to stop me from disconnecting the antenna?"

"Us? No. We were just passing by." Ulrich said.

Suddenly, Coach Jim was electrocuted.

"Careful!" Jeremy called out.

The man fell from where he was standing and the four of them quickly ran forward to catch him as he fell off the side of the building. They hauled him up and back to safety, but he was out cold.

"We'll take him to the infirmary." Mel said as she and Ulrich slung one of their gym teacher's arms over their shoulders.

"Okay. I'll try to find out what Xana's done to the antenna." Jeremy said.

****

Odd, Mel and Ulrich had managed to bring Coach Jim to the infirmary.

"Hey, Jim. Can you hear me?" Ulrich tried calling out to the man.

"Smells like roast chicken." Odd commented.

"Now's not really the time to be thinking about food, Odd." Mel said.

Ulrich continued to call out to him until the school nurse walked in.

"Odd? Ulrich? Melissa?" Nurse Dorothy addressed them as she walked in before noticing the man on the bed. "Jim! What happened to him?"

"Oh, you know how Jim is. He's a regular live wire." Odd said and Mel elbowed his side. "I mean..."

Nurse Dorothy gave them a concerned look as Odd tried to explain the situation.
