Author's notes: OK, *cough*, my second fic! And this time is a Takari! A bet of angsty but I think it's not TOO much^_^, and I'm not torturing Hikari on purpose! Just to let the little guys to run around for her for a little^_^;. I think I'll try to write a fic on any Digi-couples in Season 02.... but not quite sure for that! I'm a Super Kensuke Lover you know!
A powerful wield, followed by a dry shriek filling the dark place, Wormmon
covered his eyes with his claws to avoid the bloody scene in front of him
shoting into his eyes while his master cracked his whip for the millionth
time of the day. The Kaizer grinned at his facinating and bloody masterpiece
in front of him, then another wielf of his whip.
"We sure are having fun, aren't we little Miss Perfect?" He spoke mockingly
at his victim.
Hikari, also known as the victim he named, opened her dry mouth but no words
came out. She gasped in the pain all over her body and for her arms that had
been tied up from above to take her whole body weight off the ground for
almost an hour.
Seeing her reactions, his smile darkened. "Painful huh?"
Hikari barely managed to whisper with her cracking voice, "....why....?"
The Kaizer felt the rage within him fought its way to burst out. "Why?
You're asking me WHY?" He cried as he threw another whip to the girl, who
left out a sharp shriek. "For all you've done!"
In the corner of the room, Wormmon was almost in tears. He had never imagine
what he went through in the pasted days would happen to a human, especially
not to a gentle girl like Hikari.
"For all my plans you've ruined!"
A loud cry.
"For all the slaves I've captured and you released them all!"
A sharp shriek.
"For all my pride!"
A cracking screech.
"For all the control spires you've destroyed!"
A small and dry cry.
"For.....for......for the light you have that I DON'T!!!!"
No more shrieks or screeches from the Keeper of Light, that clearly shows the
girl is unconscious. Wormmon uncovered his eyes to see his master gritting
his teeth, he swung the whip on to the ground violently and walked to his
throne with wobbly legs. Wormmon quietly clawed his way next to the hanging
body, wanting to check her pulse somehow. The Kaizer pressed an invisible
switch in front of him, the dark room was lightened up with computer screens
in the next second. He started typing on the other invisible buttons with
unbelievable speed and soon found what he wanted: the pinpointed location of
the other Digidestined.
Wormmon sighed in relief. He had clawed his way up to Hikari's neck to check
her pulse and fortunately it's still hanging there. Now he thinks about what
his master had just said.
*"For.....for......for the light you have that I DON'T!!!!"*
'What does that suppose to mean?' Wormmon couldn't help but to think deeply
about it.
"Wormmon."
Wormmon was shocked and fell off from Hikari's shoulder for his master's
summon. "Ye.....yes master?"
"Send Flymon to bring the girl back to them." He said in a relatively shaky
voice.
"Why?" Wormmon was surprised at what his master told him to do.
"You stupid worm," he turned his throne from the computer screens to see his
digimon. "Airdramon will just simply throw the girl off his back and the
girl crumbles."
Wormmon's eyes were widened with glee, "Ken...."
"You never listen do you? DON'T CALL ME THAT!!!!" Wormmon was astonished.
"And if I'm correct, your screwed mind is thinking that I'm being
Mr. Nice Guy here? Not a chance!"
"Then......why...?"
"It's surely none of you business, but since I'm Mr. Nice Guy here today, I
won't mind of telling you." He turned his throne back to see the screens.
"If the rubbish out there discovered Miss Perfect's pathetic little corpse,
they'll definitely will go all crying and sniffing. But in the other case,
if they found her dying but still alive, they'll feel so grateful and send
her back to the real world for medical treatments and the girl eventually
dies...." He grinned at the pleaure thought, "then they'll be in the hell of
helplessness." Wormmon shivered at the imaginary picture in his mind. "Now
get it and get going."
"Ye....yes, master." He clawed to the doorway with sadness and disappointment,
Ken hadn't change a bit.
"Hikari! HIKARI!" Daisuke yelled hysterically in the forest, where Hikari
was abducted by a light speed Digimon, right in front of him. He
gritted his teeth as he balled his palms into fists and punched as hard as
he could to the tree beside him, drawing blood to spatter. "If I was more
on-guard..... darn it!"
"It's too late to say anything," Takeru muffled, trying his best to keep
himself in control. "Let's find her before it's too late for saving her." He
knew it wasn't totally his own fault by heart, but the anger inside him keeps
growing as seconds passed by. What would happen to her? What did the
Digimon Kaizer had put her into? What if she's been starved? What if she's
been tortured and hurted?
What if she's dead? Then what's he going to do?
That thought slammed at him HARD, he couldn't let that to happen. The world
becomes meaningless without Hikari, and he knew he couldn't live without
Hikari, she's the light of his life.
The blonde head squeezed tightly at the D-3 in his hand, he shook off all the
questions and despair and held back the tears, he's not going to let that to
happen.
"Are you all right Takeru?" Patamon asked concernedly on his partner's hat.
Takeru forced himself to smile, "yes, don't worry Patamon."
"What are we going to do when we find her?" Miyako said warinessly from
behind, hoping to soothe the scene a little.
"We better think about it," Iori added. "because she's probably..... well um,
sorry to say that but, will not be in a very good shape."
"It's the Kaizer we're talking about....." Armadillomon added to support
Iori's idea. Gatomon, who had kept silent in the rest of the searching, felt
the hair of her body all tensed at the thought as her potential anger finally
bursted out.
"Just what are you trying to say?" She gritted her teeth so hard that's
almost drawing blood.
Iori and Armadillomon blinked, "we didn't mean anything....."
"Then shuttup and keep moving! Those comments aren't going to help anything,
you get it Iori?"
"Hey! That's rude!" Armadillomon yelled to defend his partner, he stepped
forward to Gatomon and it looked like a fight is starting out. Miyako and
Hawkmon took a quick nervous glance at each other then rushed in between the
furious two and pushed them backwards.
"Let me go Miyako!" Gatomon squealed, trying to struggle out from Miyako's
grip.
"Unless you won't fight!" She tightened her grip on Gatomon even more.
Meanwhile, Hawkmon didn't have the body size advantage so he soon lost the
match, Armadillomon struggled free but his way was blocked by Daisuke and
Veemon together in the next second. He fought for the second time to get
through while Iori ran forward and grasped him from behind.
"Stoppit Armadillomon!" Iori yelled to his raging Digimon, holding him tight.
"Let me go!"
Seeing the present situation, Daisuke eyed Veemon a look and they sighed
heavily together. "Just what's going on today? First Hikari's been
kidnapped and now our Digimon allies are fighting over something I can't see
any use of fighting?" Daisuke scowled at the thought, that was more of a
statement than a question. He growled through his teeth in disgust at the
thought of Hikari spending her hours alone with the Digimon Kaizer, it
sends a sinister shiver down his spine. Whatever or not Hikari's coming back
all right or hurted, he sweared he's going to make him pay. Takeru rolled
his eyes hopelessly and headed to the strangled Gatomon, who was still
fighting Miyako's dead grip. He gestured Miyako to let go of her, thankfully
Gatomon wasn't seething anymore but droplets of tears were running their way
down her cheeks, that made Armadillomon to realize what he had been doing
and stopped struggling in Iori's arms. Takeru frowned and gently held
Gatomon up into his embrace in a Hikari fashion, he understood what she needs
now is comfort.
".... Takeru.... I'm...... I'm so scared....." She said through the wail
hisses. ".... I don't...... know what to do........ and now I'm......
acting like a brat......"
Hearing the Digimon of Light, his frown deepened at the twist in his stomach,
but at the other hand, stroking the hurted cat's head, as gentle as ever.
"We'll get her back, and I'm sure she'll be fine. But remember next time,
try your best not to take out your stress on your friends, it's not their
fault and they feel just the same way as you do." He shut his eyes tightly,
Patamon cuddled his head to encourage him, he smiled and continued. "What
about a little nap? You must be very tired by now." Gatomon lifted her
head up to face Takeru while shooking her head, refused to take the offer.
"I'm feeling a lot better now, thank you so much." She closed her eyes in
relief, but snapped them open again as she heard some sort of dazzling noises
coming from the far end of the forest. She took a glance at everyone, they
were all holding their breathes, that was a sign for her of them knowing
what's happening and she knocked Takeru down to the ground while the other
Digimons did the same to their partners, they barely dodged the shoving force
above their heads, which it went back and forth for several times. None of
them dared to move as the trees shaked violently in the gust before the
noises went further and further away. Peeking with a mouth
full of mud, Daisuke saw the leaves and branches around them have been cut
and fell to the ground beside and on top of them, they stood up and dusted
off their clothes. Takeru traced a Flymon now far away from them in the sky.
"What had just happened?" Daisuke asked dumbly and no one ever answered.
The noise was suddenly replaced by a familar sound, Takeru's D-3 was sounding
for the appearance of the Keeper of Light not far from where they were. He
couldn't help but to gasp with joy.
"Hikari!"
"Drop the girl off somewhere near the Digidestined.... job's done." Wormmon
muttered on Flymon's back.
All the for remaining children rushed to the spot indicated on Takeru's D-3
in full speed, while all of them were praying that nothing had happened to
the girl. However, against their wills, what appeared in front of them was
a shock to them - What they found was a numb and bloody Hikari, with bleeding
and dried cuts and bruises all over her body. Takeru and Gatomon slowly
approached in awe, while the others were still frozen in fear and shock. He
knelt down beside her and gently put her on to his lap. Her clothes were
torn, and her hair clip was missing, Takeru brushed a strand of her silky
brown bang off to the side of her face, tears running down his cheeks by now.
"Hikari......"
Gatomon was also in tears, but she soon overcame the fear and moved on to a
more important thing. She moved to her partner's neck and slowly, moved her
trembling hand towards it. She shut her eyes so tight that her tears were
running down like a waterfall, but her face was delighted when she found
Hikari's weak but existing pulse. Takeru whooped uncontrollably, like the
knot in his stomach has finally been untied as he saw Gatomon nodded. He got
up with Hikari in his arms and ran to the Digiport that happened to be the
closest and headed back to the real world, the others followed so close
behind with glee.
Three hours had passed, the red light of the Operation Room still hadn't been
switched off. It was late in midnight and all of them were exhausted from
the searching earlier in the day. Iori was busy at the pay phone, calling
first the Yagami's resident, then his home and the others' one by one.
Daisuke was pounding his head to the wall outside of the operation room, with
Takeru sitting on the bench outside of the room, squeezing his hat in his
hands and eyes never torn from the room. His mind had gone blink, he couldn't
think of any possiblities anymore and just believed in the faith in his heart
that Hikari, the one he loves, will survive through this. While all of them
were occupied in one way or an other, Miyako was busy dealing with a nurse
for Hikari's accident report.
"She....um .... she...... was hit by a car!" Miyako twisted her mind to think
of any other possible "accidents" that had made Hikari into such a bad shape.
The nurse narrowed her eyes, "where's the driver and the car then?"
".... Don't know, it was a Hit and Run!"
"But the injuries didn't seem to be caused that way." The nurse stared at
Miyako suspiciously, by now Miyako is sweating.
"..... Oh! Oh ya, it wasn't a car hit! It was..... it was...... she rolled
down a cliff!"
"A cliff?" Now the nurse felt more suspicious. Miyako couldn't help
but to yell.
"I said she rolled off a cliff and that means she had rolled off a
cliff! You get it now DAMN-IT!" That nurse's eyes widened in surprise as
the rude girl that had just sweared to her sped off to where her friends
were.
Fifteen more minutes later, the red light was off finally. Takeru and
Daisuke both jumped and ran to the doctor in a flash.
"How's she?" Daisuke asked nervously. The doctor smiled in return, "she's
fine for now, but her terrible blood lost will take a long time
for her body to rebuild the blood tissues. You can visit her after the
narcotic wears off." A cart was then pushed out from the Operation Room
with Hikari sleeping peacefully on it, Takeru and Daisuke ran to it but were
stopped by the nurses carrying it.
"We'll inform you for any statu changes." One of the nurse said and
contiues her way down the hallway. The doctor put his gentle hand on to
Takeru's shoulder.
"Get some rest now, we'll inform you if she's awake."
Takeru could only nod to the doctor. He walked wobbly back to the bench and
bumped his rear on it, sitting there, his face totally in a blink.
Daisuke was awakened by the first line of light of the sun rising. He rubbed
his eyes sleepily and turned to where the others have been. Miyako was
sleeping in a sitting position, Iori sleeping beside her, head on her
shoulder, and Takeru sitting beside them....... wide awake. He cursed
himself for drifting off to sleeping.
"Who's Takaishi Takeru here?" A soft voice came from not too far away but
was enough to make the boys jump, Takeru stood up.
"Yagami Hikari wants to see you." With that Takeru was on his way to the
patient room, Daisuke following close behind.
"Sorry gentlemen, but one visitor at a time for now." That nurse said firmly
but kept the gentle tone in her voice, the boys shot each other a look. After
several seconds Daisuke shook, accepting the defeat.
"Go ahead TJ," he put a hand on Takeru's shoulder, which made the blonde head's
eyes widened. "Hikari wants to see you, but not me."
"Daisuke......?"
"Oh and, bring this to her." He handed a red hair clip which belongs to
Hikari and patted on the Keeper of Hope's shoulder once again, a little
harder this time. "I found it in where we found Hikari. Take good care
of her." He walked away when he finished. Takeru stared at the hair clip
for a moment, then followed the nurse as she showed the way to Hikari's room.
Her face was paler than a piece of paper, Takeru stood in the doorway for a
minute before stepping inside and settled down on a chair beside the bed. His
heart ached, how could he put his love into this condition? He carefully
placed his hand on to hers, brought it up and kissed it. He felt so useless,
he felt like it was him who had done this to Hikari. How could he?
He almost jumped as her hand shifted in his hands. The blonde was astonished
by the move, he striaghened up his position for a better view of his love.
"..... Ta...keru?" A whisper escaped from her lips.
"Yes, I'm here."
"I'm.... saved?"
"Hai," he whispered back. "You'll be fine, don't worry."
Her lips curved into a weak smile, "thank..... you so much..... for saving
me...."
Takeru shook, his heart aching again. "No...... it's because of me that
you're here now....." Tears sliding down his cheeks. "I'm sorry...... I'm
so sorry....."
Hikari shook and squeezed lightly on her love's hand, "no.... it wasn't your
fault......" She wiped his tears away with great effort, but winced in pain
when her arm went too high. Takeru gripped it gently and put it back under
the blanket.
"Rest now Hikari...... we'll have plenty of time to talk later."
She smiled, as sweet as ever. "Hai, oyasumi." Then she closed her eyes,
drifted into a peaceful dream in the next second. Takeru stared at her calm
sleeping figure, eyes never leaving.
"..... I swear I'll never let this to happen to you again....." He muffled,
voice level down so he won't have wake up the beautiful sleeping girl. "I
swear I will not put you into any more danger. I love you, Hikari." He
gathered his hands together, supporting his head with them. "With all my
heart........."
