Code Lyoko

Jeremy and Aelita, using data sent to them through the network from Franz Hopper, manage to reconstruct part of Lyoko: Sector 5. It would seem that things have taken a turn for the better: the real William reappears at Kadic, apparently unscathed. His unexpected return comes not a moment too soon, because Sissi—who forcefully assumed editorial control at the “Kadic Herald”—has taken a marked interest in finding out more about him. But William, now clearly still under Xana’s control, kidnaps Aelita and absconds with her onto Lyoko…

Jeremy creates a polymorphic specter of himself to go to phys ed class in order to be left to work undistracted on bringing William back from Lyoko. Jeremy’s body double turns out to be far more athletic than the original, to Jim’s considerable surprise. But Xana wrests control of the tower Jeremy used to conjure up his clone, and the imposter now poses a serious threat to our heroes. A battle ensues on the now fully reconstructed Lyoko, featuring new, updated gear for the Lyoko Warriors.

All of Kadic Academy is buzzing: the drummer for the famous rock group, “The Subdigitals”—who just so happens to be the nephew of one of the faculty—is visiting the school. In fact, he is there to hold auditions as part of a promotional operation to discover young musical talent—the winner going on to play the opening set for the Subdigitals’s upcoming concert. Aelita, realizing her gifts as a DJ, would love a chance to audition, but she doesn’t count on Xana’s incessant intentions of kidnapping her…

A recreation lounge room is unveiled for the students at the academy. William’s body double, created by Jeremy to replace the Lyoko prisoner, is elected student manager. Unfortunately, this version of William has a major flaw: he is absolutely daft. With the clone’s erratic stupidity attracting unwanted attention, Jeremy urgently runs a program to try and recover the real youth from Lyoko. But a bug stymies the program and Xana takes over the tower that controls William’s clone.

Jeremy and Aelita are inches from creating a virtual ship capable of taking the Lyoko Warriors deep into the World Wide Web. But their success hinges on closely following all aspects of the program’s progress, which will terminate the following afternoon. Alas, bad luck strikes as the two students are found working together late into the night in the same room—against academy rules. The two are punished by Headmaster Delmas with detention. How can they expect to properly monitor the program’s progress from detention? Worse yet, with Jeremy and Aelita held in the library under Jim’s stifling custody, Xana launches an attack against the unfinished ship, threatening to destroy it completely…

Pressured by the eager and impatient Lyoko Warriors, Jeremy agrees to launch the virtual ship Skidbladnir on its maiden voyage. Aelita, Ulrich, Yumi and Odd prepare to embark on their first journey as internauts exploring the World Wide Web. But just as our heroes discover the liquid environment of the Digital Sea, a glitch surfaces in the programming and the “Skid” loses its guidance system. The only way to fix the bug is for Jeremy to retrieve necessary materials from his dorm—which is completely locked down in a school-wide fire drill! Trapped in the network, the Lyoko Warriors find themselves faced with a new menace…
