Before the death of Sam Ichijouji. He was a normal, young genius, and athletic. He was also a Guardian. Sam was known as the Digi-Guardian of flame. His partner was Meramon. He was best friends with the other 3 guardians. But here's a really big secret…He didn't die. Listen to this.
Sam had no idea that day. No idea what was about to happen. But somehow he did. He saw his little brother get hit. He saw his little brother die right there in front of him. But the voice of his little brother Kenneth Ichijouji, better known as Ken. Snapped him out of his daze.
"Sam can we get ice cream?" Sam looked down at his brother the same shade of dark blue meeting his gaze.
"sure let's go Kenny" Sam smiled as his brother jumped up and down with eagerness, he laughed and took his hand in his and started walking towards the brightly lit ice cream parlor.
When they got there Sam ordered plain but delicious vanilla ice cream. And ken started to say a bunch of different flavors, "I want mint chocolate chip. No wait I want chocolate. No hold on I want-"But was cut off when Sam interrupted, "He'll have Vanilla to" he said looking at his brother who was pouting slightly.
"Why'd you get me vanilla?" ken asked cause he wanted something sweeter
"Because you were taking an eternity to choose" Sam said smiling at him
They got the ice cream and left. They were walking the same way they came. But something felt off to Sam, ken walk along and ate his ice cream as if nothing was wrong. But Sam knew better, they were crossing the street when all of a sudden a car came flying down the block. It was going straight for ken but Sam pushed him out of the way putting himself in the cars path. He was hit.
When he was hit you could hear the sicking sounds of bones cracking and his blood curling scream. That was till he fell unconcusious.
Next you heard "SAM!"
/Later at the hospital/
"Miss Ichijouji" said a doctor
"Yes that's us" Mrs. And Mr. Ichijouji said while ken had tears streaming down his little face
"Your son Sam his body has disappeared" said the doctor
Silence Then...
"WHAT HOW COULD HIS BODY DISSAPEAR?!" Yelled the outraged parents ken was crying with worry for his brother he was only four so he didn't exactly know what that meant.
"calm down its true we don't have any clue to what happened to it but we can assure you the chance of him surviving that crash is very slim so he is pro-nonced dead" the doctor said
With that Mr. and Mrs. Ichijouji burst into tear with an already sobbing ken in their arms.
They decided to not tell anyone about the hospital losing sam's body.
Later that night Mr. Ichijouji had called all sam's friends to tell them the news. But had the guardians come over instead. (Yes all the parents know)
"Why why Sam" cried the youngest two guardians while they embraced ken they all just sank to the ground crying.
The other guardian sam's best friend was crying to but holding back some tears. Mr. and Mrs. Ichijouji called her to sam's room she followed.
They closed the door.
"Why, how, when?" these words left the now oldest guardians mouth before she could think
Mrs. Ichijouji walked over to sam's desk and took his digivice, cloak, and d-terminal and set them in her hands.
Tears started to fall from her eyes as she had a tight grip on these items just like her best friend once had.
"We want you to have them" said looking at her with puffy red eyes
"Why" she asked confused and happy
"Because you two were together longer than any of the other guardians" Mrs. Ichijouji said trying to smile
"Thank you" she said hugging them with that they all cried together.
/The Dark Ocean/
"Huh where am I?"
