Code Lyoko Porn Story: Princes Return – Chapter 6

Chapter
6: Past Lives

Wherere
you going? Nick asked.

I
need to get some air. Dartz said. He left the dorm and walked
outside. The moon was shining through the trees marking the beginning
of the forest leading to the warriors secret entrance to the
factory. Dartz climbed over the gates and walked across the street to
an American caf he and Duke always used to hang out at when they
were seven. He walked in and looked around. Nothing had changed at
all. Even the staff was the same as when he had last been there six
years ago. He started walking toward his usual table, a small two-
person booth to the right of the bar. As he got closer, he noticed
someone sitting at a table a few places away. He was sipping on a cup
of hot chocolate and looking at a newspaper, even though he was only
about 15. Dartz knew this boy had to be Garrett. He started walking
past, not even looking at his former friend.

That
seats not taken, Dartz. Garrett said suddenly. Dartz hesitated,
but took a seat in front of the southerner.

So you go here too? Dartz asked. Garrett took a sip of hot
chocolate and looked up from the newspaper.

Every
once in a while. I dont mean to insult you, Dartz, France is nice,
but sometimes I feel the need to go back to my roots.

You
know as well as I do that Im not French.

Of
course I do. Ive just gotten so used to the story that its
become an everyday thing for me. Same with Duke and Riou.

I
heard you won a shooting contest while I was away.

Yes.
It was a fun event. ALL my friends were there. Dartz rolled his
eyes and looked out the window at the busy Paris streets. Look, I
know we didnt part on the best terms, Dartz, but the gang still
likes you.

Couldve
fooled me. Dartz muttered. A shocked looking waitress ran over,
looking very flustered.

Dartz?
the waitress asked. Dartz Dragonblade? Dartz looked over at the
waitress.

Hey,
Jessica. Dartz said.

No
way, it really is you! What can I get you? Just the usual?

Yeah.
Thats fine. Jessica walked away quickly and into the kitchen.

What
was that about? Garrett asked.

I
know most of the staff here. Duke and I used to hang out here all the
time. Dartz went back to looking out the window.

You
know, it hurt us greatly when you left without saying anything.
Especially Aelita and Sharon. Dartz sighed and looked at Garrett.

I
know where youre getting at, Doc. And I think this is one of those
times when its better to not take the risk. I just wish for once
we could all just have a normal life. Jessica came back with a mug
and a pitcher of brownish liquid. She set the mug and pitcher in
front of Dartz, who quickly poured some of the brownish liquid into
the mug. Thanks, Jess.

No
problem. Its on the house. Jessica said.

Thanks.
Jessica walked back into the kitchen and Garrett looked down at the
brown liquid in Dartzs mug.

Whats
that? Garrett asked.

Insam
Cha. Dartz said as he took a sip. In English its called
Ginseng Tea. Its a drink created in Korea that relieves exhaustion
and enhances liver performance.

Whyd
you need to drink that?

Just
a little bit of back home. It keeps me going.

Maybe
you should go back every once in a while. Dartz shook his head.

I
cant. Not after what happened. There was a moment of silence
before Garrett spoke again.

Theres
no such thing as a normal life, Dartz. Garrett said, getting back
on subject. Theres just life. And its our job to make sure
everyone keeps theirs, no matter how bad ours get.

You
always were the voice of wisdom.

I
get that from my father.

How
is he, by the way?

Dont
change the subject. Its best for the world if you make peace with
the team. Youre the best warrior weve got. Dartz sighed.

Ill
think about it. He finished his tea, got up, and left.
