(Drake Daichi's POV)
It was a normal day, the sun rose high into the cobalt sky. I heard the sounds of people outside and the vehicles they were driving. It was the weekend and i was glad, i did not have to walk through those halls for two days... two days of solitude.
The bright rays of the sun shone into my room as i sat on my bed, holding my father's ring in my hand, it was engraved with our family name and had the symbol of a dragon.
It was all i had that remained of him; he vanished five years ago. I do not know where or why he left but he did. My mother became sick with cancer a few weeks later; she died a year later. I have been on my own for two years now, getting by, by any means necessary.
School is not a picnic either, everyone seems to be distant from me maybe it is because of my families strange and shrouded past. To be honest i have never really cared. I stood from my bed and tied my long black and red hair in a ponytail.
I walked down the stairs and into the hallway; i grabbed my leather matrix coat, my black shades and my keys. I left the house and locked the door with the key. Every time i lock that door, every time i leave this house... i say goodbye to my mother in my head... i never did when she died.
I shook my head, casting those thoughts out of my head. I hated the fact that i could not say goodbye to my mother... i am sorry mother. I shook my head again and tapped the side of it making sure i got the thought out of my head for good.
I walked down the street with my hands in my pockets, the sun was beating down on me and the wing blew against me. I was thinking through my head, the way people used to pick on me because of my eyes. Normally some people have brown eyes, blue eyes, green eyes, hazel eyes... I have gold eyes.
I believe that i was born with them but... they have given me several problems and because of those problems, i am how i am. Anyone picks on me i send them to the hospital, well apart from that one guy who i nearly put six feet under.
I walked into the park and leaned against the tree, my eyes fixed on the reflecting sunlight on the pond water. For some reason i never felt... like i belonged here in fact i have never felt that i have belonged anywhere. Being here did not feel right and it was always nicking at the back of my skull.
I let out a quiet sigh and looked at my father's ring again. I always feel strange whenever i look at this ring and it seems... strange. I placed it in my pocket and leaned off the wall. My phone started to ring and my phone is built into my sunglasses.
I pressed the button at the side to answer."Hello?" There were only two people who had my number. Airi Akiko and Ayumu Daisuke. "Drake? It's Ayumu" I had to smirk as he talked; he is one of my only friends apart from Airi, his sister.
"Let me guess, you're at the park again" He knew so well considering i rarely speak when around them anyway. "How'd you know?" I sat down on a bench and looked up at the sky. "Well whenever you've got free time and considering i can't hear people begging for mercy i guessed you must be at the park" I laughed a bit at the "begging for mercy" joke, i do regular martial arts and i tend to fight and spar as if i was really fighting.
"Where are you?" Figuring as i would rather spend time with friends than on my own. "I'm at home with my sister" "HEY DRAKE!" I had to laugh again, hearing Airi's voice in the background. They drive each other crazy but they are siblings what do you expect them to do.
"Sorry Drake" He always sounds nervous whenever his sister is around, i do not know why though. "Don't worry Ayumu, i'll be round soon" I hung up the call and stood from the bench. Ayumu's house is only down the street from the park so i started heading down that way.
It is always nice being around the pair, Airi is the oldest of the group despite how she acts. Sometimes i think Ayumu is thinking for both of them in the family. Their parents are okay, the mom is lovely and the dad well he treats me like a best mate.
Once, about six months ago they told me i could move in if i wanted to. However, i believed i would be a burden on the family so i declined but they did say if i ever change my mind their doors are always open.
I arrived at the door already hearing the sounds of Ayumu and Airi arguing. I rang the doorbell and waited for a few seconds before Airi opened the door, her long blonde hair fully covering her face, she had been fighting Ayumu again.
"Drake!" She jumped on me wrapping her legs and arms around me as if i was her boyfriend. "Nice to see you too Airi" I do not mind how she acts but it does confuse me partially. "How you been gold eyes?" Airi is the only one apart from Ayumu and their parents who isn't freaked out by my golden eyes, in fact they turned into a nickname calling me "Golden eyes".
"Same as always" I smirked as she unwrapped herself around me and stood on the hard wood floor. She took my hand and led me up the stairs into her room. I sat down on the bed and she sat next to me, telling me about everything she and Ayumu had been up to.
I just listened like normal; it was nice hearing what they had been up to though sometimes it sounds like torture to Ayumu. Ayumu came in and started talking as well; this was how it usually went on whenever i came round.
I felt something strange. "Oh Drake look" Airi pulled out this strange device it felt different, i started seeing images in my head of... doctors, labs, blood, bones, organs, screams, tears and this device. I knew what this was or rather... i remember what it is... a digivice.
She held it tightly in her hand as Ayumu pulled out another one, exact same design just different colours. Airi's was white and silver while Ayumu's is green and silver.
Something was weird these images were flooding into my mind, it hurt, FUCK IT HURT! It was missing the digivice father left me... it was... it was.
I started feeling dizzy, my vision blurred, i had a headache, everything seemed to be spinning and then... i blacked out. I heard Ayumu and Airi screaming but i passed out i could not move... i felt like i was... falling. A feeling of burning and fire, deep within my heart. Something was different; i felt different... what is happening to me.
