Emma's Tale: The Story of a Guardian

The Whole Story

Chapter 1: A Problem

There was a knock on my door. I went up to grab it, knowing it was my brother, Justin. Sure enough, it was Justin. I said, "Morning Brother!"

Justin, who was wearing a white shirt with a black jacket with headphones and jeans on, smiled.

"Hey Sis, how are you?" he said.

"I'm fine, I guess, I'm a little hungry though" I answered, knowing that he would probably read my mind.

Justin and I went to the Kadic lunchroom to get some breakfast. Kadic is the school I go to with my brother. I made some pretty good friends there also. Then one day, we all discovered an abandoned factory with a supercomputer inside it of a virtual world named Lyoko. There, we fight to keep the world safe from Xana, an artificial intelligence program threating to destroy our world.

When my brother and I got there, we were surprised that all our friends were there already. Most of the time, Justin and I were first to get there. Ericka Lee and Mellissa Green were already at the table eating breakfast. We got our breakfast and sat down.

"You know, I'm sure glad it's Friday," Ericka said. "I can't wait for the weekends."

I didn't really hear what Ericka said. My mind was on another thing.

Justin knew what I was thinking. When Justin, Franz and I went to Lyoko, Franz made Justin the Core of Lyoko, and me the Guardian of Lyoko. Since Justin was the core, he got special powers. For me, I just was able to move the terrains of Lyoko around me.

"What's wrong sis?" Justin asked.

I sighed. "Well, I don't get it. How come Justin got powers and not me?"

"I have no idea Emma. I guess its because I'm older I guess."

I didn't say a word after that. I finished my breakfast and went straight to Science class.

Chapter 2: The Exclamation

After classes were over and lunch was done, I went straight to my dorm. I laid on my bed trying to figure out the whole powers situation. Justin then barged into my room.

"Hey, I didn't get to talk to you for the last 6 hours of class," Justin said.

I kept my mouth shut. I didn't feel like talking to him because I needed to get to the factory to connect with my father, who was somewhere on Lyoko.

Justin then read my mind and asked me if I was thinking about me having powers. I finally said yes, but I tried to make it look like nothing was wrong. When Justin left my room, I rushed to my computer and typed my father a message saying to meet him on Lyoko for a little talk. Then I rushed to the forest to the sewer lid and ran all the way to the factory. When I got to the lab, I quickly set up the self-virtualization program to send me to the Forest Sector on Lyoko.

When I got there, I raced to the main tower and entered in. I stepped into the middle and floated up to the top to the interface.

When I finally got back to my dorm, I was surprised to see my brother Justin, Ericka, and Mellissa all standing near my laptop.

"Uh, what's going on? Why are you guys in my room?" I finally said.

Justin walked up to me and said, "We were all worried about you. Then we saw you go to Lyoko unexpectactly to the Forest Sector's main tower."

"But I had to know why Dad gave you powers and not me!"
