To Nicolas' joy, his father, Sergei Poliakoff, was visiting him that day at Kadic. Although to Gladio, Jeremy's gang, and the rest of the world, Sergei was the face of evil, the grim reaper, the great destroyer, to Nic he was one thing: Dad. And a pretty good one, at that. "Alright, kiddo," Sergei spoke in Russian as he rustled Nic's hair, "where do you go to class?" "A little bit down the hall, dad. Why?" "I want to see where my son is getting his education! Nothing but the finest for my boy!" He smiled as Nic pushed open the door to h Innocents Pay 17 by ~HeWalksInBeauty

Innocents Pay Chapter 16, Actum Non VerbumUlrich and Yumi arrived shortly. Jeremy debriefed them. "Yumi, I need you to enter the coordinates on this sheet of paper," he indicated a small legal pad on his chair, "into the program I have set up here. Ulrich, be careful. If the police come back, there's not much we can do. Try to buy time if they do. After this, we only have feudal Europe left to travel to." Jeremy and Aelita descended in the elevator. Looking coyly at him, she slipped her hand into his. Jeremy stiffened a little. "Ae, I thought we were going to wait until this was over to get involved with eachother?" Aelita was blatantly shocked. "What?!? What about what you did at Da Vini Ta? What was that supposed to be, then?" "I have no idea what you're talking about! The last time we went to Di Vini Ta was almost half a year ago!" "Ha! You mean earlier this afternoon! After church, remember!" Aelita suddenly realized something, and changed her tone of voice. "Oh, Jeremy, I'm so sorry! You have so much depending on you righ Innocents Pay Chapter 16, Actum Non Verbum by ~HeWalksInBeauty

Innocents Pay Chapter 15 (Code Lyoko)Jeremy woke up in the factory. Stretching and yawning as he lifted himself to his feet, he noticed a conspicuous lack of noise, except for the computer's contented hum. He soon discovered the reason; a note left on his desk read, "Jeremy, I headed out to church early to chat with the pastor. I decided to let you get som rest. Ulrich and Yumi decided to spend the day together, so you're on your own. With love, Aelita p.s. I left you a bagel " Jeremy smiled as he crunched into the bagel. He accidentally brushed the note off the table, and when he bent down to retrieve it, noticed another note in his handwriting; "Research possible ways to come back from the past under own power. Especially check on papyrus Edsonel used." Jeremy's brain buzzed. He had an epiphany. Running to the computer, he opened up the system and was tearing through code furiously in seconds. It took him an hour, but he found the source code for the papyrus. With a bit of modification, he could create a system tha Innocents Pay Chapter 15 (Code Lyoko) by ~HeWalksInBeauty

Innocents Pay (Code Lyoko) Chapter 2 It was a rainy night in East Berlin. Two people crouched in an alley. One of them was kneeling on the ground, and the other standing above him. They were both wearing sopping wet overcoats, and the kneeling one, an old man, was in pain. Leaning down, the other one whispered in a terrified voice, "Father, we need to get moving. The train will be moving by soon, and the KGB are-" "Yes, yes, Anitae, the KGB will be here soon." Standing up painfully, the old man's face came into light, He was shaved bald, but his stubble was a strange color. Pink, actually. He grumbled "We must be moving." and then staggered out onto the platform. Screechi Innocents Pay (Code Lyoko) Chapter 2 by ~HeWalksInBeauty

Innocents Pay Chapter 4--------June, 1984 Waldo Schaefer flinched when the door opened, shedding light across the floor and blinding him. A husky voice ordered, "Up." Creeping across to the door, Waldo realized that the rest of his life hinged on how he would answer the next few questions. However, he was dressed for the part, with a snazzy if rumpled tuxedo and a stylish hat. All he could do is wait, so he stepped into the "interrogation chamber" as it was euphemistically called, and brooded on how he would survive. Several short minutes later, his interrogator arrived. Unsurprisingly, it was the local pastor. Waldo smiled at him. Soon, the best man, Jim, arrived Innocents Pay Chapter 4 by ~HeWalksInBeauty

Innocents Pay Chapter 6: Ghosts of Stalin The next few weeks were mind boggling for Jeremy, Aelita, and Ulrich. Jim had fabricated excuses for their absence, and spent the mornings lecturing them on "true history." "Time is not linear. Events occur to you as you see them, not before or after, no matter what the history books say. We can only travel backwards in time, and thus, we cannot change the true course of history. Whatever we have done has already changed what will happen. Here is our problem: The Soviets plan to use the C-bomb in May, this year.

Innocents Pay Chapter 8 (Code Lyoko) JIm and Petrenkov's bodies lay on the ground. Standing in shock, Jeremy was only dimly aware of Aelita collapsing on her knees. He soon, however, was very aware of everyone's eyes turning to him for guidance. Apparently, with Jim gone, he had become the leader. Bouyed by a confidence he could not understand, he issued commands. "Yumi, start CPR on Jim. There might be life in him yet. The other man, frankly, has no chance." Jeremy sat down, and started working on the computer. "I will initiate a return to the past. If Jim is alive, he be safe and sound." Having entered the code as he talked, Jeremy executed it as soon as he finished. "Return Innocents Pay Chapter 8 (Code Lyoko) by ~HeWalksInBeauty

Innocents Pay Chapter 9 (Code Lyoko)--------July, 1984
Volk sat, tied to a chair. Waiting for Sergei Poliakoff, known widely as a mercurially mooded murderer, would have been nerve wracking for a lesser man, but Volk was raised in Siberia. He had waited, half buried underneath the rotting corpse of an elk, for three days time, in order to kill a wolf with his knife. Also, he was an old man. He had little left to live for. Sergei walked in, ostentatiously flouting a pistol. "Do you know why you are here, Volk?" "Yes, but I'll humor you. Pray tell." "I have killed men for less than that amount of disrespect! You are here because you failed to kill your target last month. Do y Innocents Pay Chapter 9 (Code Lyoko) by ~HeWalksInBeauty

Too late (Part 1) Code Lyoko Jeremy was staying late at the factory, as usual. He still hadn't found a way to free Aelita from her virtual prison, and he felt he wasn't even getting close. However far away, though, the prisoner was always there to cheer him up. "Don't worry, Jeremy," she'd started one night, "I've waited ten years to get out of here-what are a few more weeks? You shouldn't work so hard." "But Aelita, the longer we wait, the more likely X.A.N.A. will spring another trap-one we can't escape." She looked like a puppy one had spoken crossly to. Jeremy, secretly filled with shame, spoke up "Have you been keeping up in your studies of earth?" She replied bri Too late (Part 1) Code Lyoko by ~HeWalksInBeauty

Chanson d'Amour-Code Lyoko(For best results, begin playing Jason Mraz's I'm Yours on a loop)
Jeremy bent over the keys on his computer. It was a cold, clear, early autumn afternoon in France. It was beautiful this time of year, but Jeremy, hunched in his grotto, barely noticed it. He was far too busy working on an anti-virus for his...best friend. He jumped up with a start, however, when a fusillade of knocks bombarded his door. He scarcely murmured a "Come in" when Aelita stormed in, took him by the arm, and marched him outside, nearly shouting "Jeremy! You need to see this!" She had dragged him into the middle of the woods before she stopped. The trees were flamboy Chanson d'Amour-Code Lyoko by ~HeWalksInBeauty
