Digimon Frontier in Takuya Quits?
A/N: This is an alternate ending to Home Again, Takuya Returns. Slight Takumi!
Summary: what happens when Takuya changes his mind in the last second about going back to the digital world?
Disclaimer: I don't own digimon.
'I can't just pretend like none of this ever happened. Even if I did go home, I'll never be the person I was before' thought Takuya who was flamon at the moment.
"And the others…" Takuya trailed off thinking about what happened. "I can't leave them." He struggled to make up his mind and finally yelled at his past self.
"Takuya! Run! Get on that train. Move it, GO TAKUYA!" He panted because of shouting but then again started to doubt himself looking at the ground.
'Maybe the others will be safe without me around.' he thought 'I was the one who put them in trouble most of the time.' He flinched remembering what he did when he first used his beast spirit. 'They'll have one less problem without meand Koji will be a better leader. He was right; I didn't know why I was in the digital world.' He looked up to see his to see his past self running after the train.
"It's now or never." He said running after him. 'I'm doing this for my own good and the others.'
"NO!" he yelled pouncing on him before he could hold onto the train's railing. Everything became dark as soon as he did so.
"AHHHH!" screamed Takuya as he shot up into a sitting position on his bed. He was breathing heavily and covered in sweat. He shut his eyes close as he held his head with his right hand and clutched the bed sheet tightly in his left as if he was in pain.
'Was it all a nightmare or all of what happened is true? It's too realistic for a nightmare…It's too blurry, I can't even remember it now.' His trains of thoughts were interrupted by the sound of someone entering his room. He opened his eyes and bought his hands to his sides.
"Takuya are you alright? I heard you scream." asked Mrs. Kanbara who was standing beside him.
"I am fine, just had a nightmare." replied Takuya smiling reassuringly.
"Good." sighed Mrs. Kanbara relieved that her eldest son is fine. "Go get refreshed it's already past 10 am and your breakfast is getting cold. And don't go anywhere its Shinya's birthday."
"Right" said Takuya as he got out of bed and headed to the shower. Mrs. Kanbara smiled and went to the kitchen to prepare for Shinya's party.
The gang was back at the ruins just relaxing. Koji had saved them from Mercurymon and Ranamon with great difficulty and also retrieved their D-tectors. They had retreated from that place soon after and came back to the ruins where they camped.
"Thanks for saving us Koji." said Jp with the others nodding.
"Don't mention it." said Koji looking around the camp thinking about one thing that was in everyone's mind. 'Where is Takuya?' (A/N: if you're thinking how they remember him even after he stopped himself from going to the digital world- well he was with them till this point of time. I know it's weird but well this is my story)
"Guys, where is Takuya?" asked Zoe voicing out her concern for the goggle head.
"I don't know." replied everyone in unison.
"I thought he was with you Bokomon." said Tommy. Bokomon and Neemon had joined them after sometime.
"WHAT! No, I thought he was caught by Mercurymon and Ranamon along with you guys." said Bokomon.
"Really?" asked Neemon.
"Will you stop that, you nincompoop." said Bokomon pulling his waistband and letting it go.
"If he was not with either of us, where is he?" asked Koji.
'Takuya, please be safe wherever you are.' thought Zoe.
"Maybe Ophanimon knows." said Neemon.
"Baka, how will she…WAIT she will!" exclaimed Bokomon. "You're a genius."
"I am?" Bokomon ignored that question and continued.
"I am sure Ophanimon will know about his whereabouts. After all she is the one who is guiding us through the digital world."
"Yeah you're right." said Tommy. Everyone got up and took out their D-tectors calling Ophanimon.
"Ophanimon? Can you hear us? Ophanimon?"
"Yes children. What is it?" she asked. They gang sighed relieved that they were able to get in contact with her.
"Ophanimon, do you know where Takuya is?" asked Zoe. Ophanimon sighed.
"What is it Ophanimon? Why are you sighing?" asked Tommy worried about the answer.
"The burning hope of flame has been extinguished." said Ophanimon sadness evident in her voice.
"Extinguished?" asked Jp.
"What do you mean Ophanimon!? Get straight to the point!" yelled Koji.
"Koji calm down! Tell us Ophanimon." said Zoe.
"Takuya, the warrior of flame-" Ophanimon paused before continuing. "Has returned to the real world never wanting to return ever again." Everyone gasped shocked. Zoe had her hands over her mouth, tears threatening to fall from her eyes. Few tears ran down Tommy's cheek. Jp was biting his lips and Koji just stood there dumbstruck. Bokomon sat down and Neemon looked on confused.
"You mean our fearless leader has run away?" asked Jp. Zoe couldn't hold back her tears which were now running down her cheek. Tommy started sobbing.
"But why?" asked Koji who regained his composure and was worried about his best friend, well he won't admit that to anyone.
"Like I said he lost all his hope and fears that he'll put you into trouble." said Ophanimon.
"But Takuya doesn't run away like that." said Tommy in between sobs.
"Yeah, Tommy's right." said Zoe and Jp. Koji was in deep thoughts.
"Is there any way we can bring him back? We need him!" said Zoe.
"There is a way." said Ophanimon.
"Tell us Ophanimon." said Bokomon with Neemon nodding in agreement.
"Very well. One of you should go to the real world and convince him to come back."
"Well that's easy." said Jp.
"It's not as easy as it sounds. He won't remember anything so first you should get him to trust you."
"He won't remember us?" asked Tommy worried. There was silence.
"I'll go after him." Koji said suddenly.
"No, wait! I am going after him." said Zoe confidently. "Koji, you'll be needed here in the digital world if the evil legendary warriors decide to attack."
"Well she has a point." said Bokomon. Koji nodded after thinking it through.
"Are you sure?" asked Jp.
"Yup, nothing is going to change my mind now." said Zoe.
"Okay then all the best Zoe." said Koji.
"Thanks"
"Are you really sure Z?" asked Jp. Tommy looked on worried.
"Yeah, I won't be back without Takuya. You can count on that."
"Be careful Zoe and bring big brother back."
"Don't worry Tommy. I will." said Zoe "Ophanimon, how do I get to the real world?"
"By Dark Trailmon. You can find the terminal by will and your D-tector will lead you to Takuya. All the best dear but be warned he won't remember you."
"Be safe Zoe." said Bokomon.
"Yeah" said Neemon. Zoe nodded closing her eyes and bought her D-tector near her heart. She wished to go to the dark terminal and within seconds she disappeared.
'Well she sure loves Takuya, hope that dense headed idiot finds that out someday' thought Koji smirking.
"You can do it Zoe." said everyone.
Zoe opened her eyes to see nothing but darkness. She looked around the place to find something, anything other than darkness.
'Am I in the right place' she thought. Suddenly some lights flickered and she was able to make out a figure which she walked towards.
"Dark Trailmon is that you? I want you to take me to the real world." said Zoe slightly shaking in fear. Soon after some lights went on and she was able to see Dark Trailmon clearly. The lights were coming from his headlights.
"So you are going after your depressed friend." stated Dark Trailmon.
"Huh?" Zoe asked confused.
"Never mind, hop on." he said as he opened the door to the carriage. Zoe got in suspicious, something about him seemed odd and his voice made her shiver. 'Well Ophanimon trusts him.'
"Next stop, the real world!" Dark Trailmon said as he started to leave the terminal.
