The New Kid in School.
In this story the characters are OOC, but especially Tai in all his angst. It's going to be Taito, eventually, with a little Sorato. I really don't like that pairing, so it won't last very long. Other pairings to come.
Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon.
On with the story:
Do you know what it's like to be the new kid in a school? Where you know nobody, except your sister? Your life is so tragic, that it builds a wall around you, so you don't care about the outside world, only the inside? But even that doesn't matter, because the kids at this school have already labeled you from rumors that they heard, and treat you as an outcast. The only way it's bearable for you is if your sister makes friends and is happy, and then that is enough.
Feel pretty sad for me, don't you? Well don't, I have faced worse. But I suppose I will give a little background on my story as to how I arrived here.
Firstly, my name is Tai Kamiya, and my sister is Kari Kamiya. She is my light, but that's pretty obvious, especially since she is the Bearer of Light. As for me, I'm the leader of a group of kids called the Digidestined. My digivice has always differed from the others. We call it a D-3, and there is the symbol of the crest of courage on it, an orange sun. But this is beside the point. The Digidestined met one summer at camp. Besides myself and Kari, there is Mimi, Joe, and Ken. Izzy was also a digidestined, but he moved away. He was writing to all of us, but stopped and a short while after that, he sent his digivice in the mail, and nothing else. No explantion, no reasoning, no intelligent remark, and he gave me his digimon. Tentomon cried when he told me the story, about how Izzy grew not to want him or be a digidestined any longer. He didn't want to be our friend, he had said he found better ones. That was my first tragic, heart ripped out moment: I lost my best friend.
We did know one thing, there is supposed to be 12 of us. But we have no idea where they are, and have given up hope of finding them, except for Patamon, who is the Digimon of Hope. I can make them all Digivolve, I have their crests, as safe-keeping I'm guessing.
I was then diagosed as being a schizo. I'm sure you know what that is, so I'm not explaining it, but at least I had my family. Ha, not even. My family is very wealthy, but my parents were loving. They took care of us, taught us right from wrong, and taught us how to love. I forgot, but Kari hasn't. In truth, I love only her, the digimon, and my close friends. Anyway, my parents were murdered, and they sent my sister and I to a mental hospital. It was to protect us. The killer was still out there, and he would never think to look for us there. Why would he? I'm rich and could take care of us and my schizophrenia.
I still kept in contact with my friends, my only link to friendship.
I also convinced the police to let us leave the hospital, not so much for me, but for Kari. She didn't deserve to be there. My time there wasn't wasted, I made full use of there gym. I'm not buffed up, but I'm also not someone you want to get into a fight with. I boxed, wrestled and was on the soccer and swimming team. Add that to my personality and attitude, and it makes for one deadly person.
That's all you get for the background.
And it's my first day of school.
I didn't know that everyone knew Kari and I were coming from a mental hospital, and had already made preconceptions of us. I didn't know Izzy would be there, and be in a group of kids that made it their business to riducle me and my sister everyday. I didn't know I would meet and hate the love of my life, because he was involved in this group of kids. I didn't know I would eventually learn to love him, I didn't know I would meet the rest of the digidestined and want nothing to do with them, but I wish I knew that my friends were going to be attending this school as well. It would have made things more bearable for Kari. . .and maybe myself as well.
I decided to write this story, because I was having writer's block on my other story Destiny's Road. I will finish that story, but I wanted to get this started as well. Read and Review please.
