Deviating Diorama by Matt Ikazou

Chapter 1 : Reality blinded by a dream?

{Four years ago}

"Wow mommy! Look at that! Isn't it pretty!?" said Davis, excitement clear in his voice.

The 6 year old Davis smiled, holding onto his mother and father's hand, Jun beside them watching the shining light of the portal leading the digidestined into the portal.

"We're saved..." The 12 year old Jun smiled, tears in her eyes. After these few couple of days under those weird ghosts control, they finnaly were saved by those 8 kids. In all her life, this was this moment was clearly the one in which she was very happy.

"Mommy, will I ever get a creature like that?"

Davis stood looking up to his mother, his eyes wide with hope.

"Perhaps Davis dear... But you do know that doing that will give you a great responsibility? Treating it wrong might lead it to be evil like those ghosts..."

"I promise mommy! I'll do whatever I can!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Even after all this time, Davis still hadn't received a digimon. He watched from afar, unnoticed looking as two more kids had become digidestined, and then later on one more.

Every night, the 16 year old Jun heard 10 year old Davis pretending that he was talking to a digimon, she knew it was childish, but she couldn't help but smile at the beliefs and hopes that Davis had of receiving a digimon.

She bickered and argued with Davis all the time, just like the average number of siblings do. Although everyone knew Jun and Davis loved eachother at heart.

***

"Davis! Dinner! C'mon, mom and dad are going to be out at hotel tonight!" Yelled Jun, obviously excited that her parents were out for the night. Despite that, Jun knew she and her brother wouldn't break the rules of having parties or anything like that.

"What're we having Jun?" Mumbled a tired Davis, tired after taking a rest since not too long ago he had just finished playing soccer.

"Pizza, c'mon it's your favorite kind!"

"Coming! Coming! I just want to wash my face first, 'kay Jun?"

Jun laughed, "Alright then, but don't blame me if the pizza's all gone when you come out!"

Davis smiled, it wasn't often he and his sister spent quality time like this.

He stepped into the bathroom yawning and stretching as he turned on the tap, soaking his hands in he lathered his face trying to get himself to not be tired. He stopped as he dried his face with a towel, looking to the mirror, he saw his trademark grin.

Oh how he would grin if he had a digimon... He wanted one so badly. What looked like a blur occurred behind Davis. His eyes widened, he looked around and saw no one. The window was open, he quickly unlocked the bathroom door and looked into the living room. He saw Jun there, being in a headlock by a smirking creature.

"Who are you?!" cried Davis, his anger shown greatly.

"Heh, you can call me a friend. Watch as I turn back time using your sister!"

"LEAVE HER ALONE!"

"In your dreams kid, ever see an explosion? Well, if you did, you'll see one ten times worse! HaHA! TIME TURN!"

Jun and the creature started glowing blue. As fire erupted all around them, it looked like some kind of movie when they were doing some kind of ritual.

Then, he started falling, and falling, it seemed like an eternal floating through a blue bubble, seeing the past four years through his very own eyes. What seemed like forever, was only ten minutes until he abruptly stopped in mid...er... I don't really know what it was. But in front of him, was that creature again.

"Prepare... For your future and past is about to CHANGE!"

An explosion occurred, and that was the last he saw before he woke up sweating. He looked at his surroundings, most of it seemed normal... From four years ago. He looked at himself, he was... Four years younger, and why couldn't he remember what happened? That was some odd dream he had, it seemed as if he had really spent those four years in real life, all the falls, cuts, and bruises he gained, all seemed so real.

But now, he was laying in bed, for what seemed like 4 years.

He abruptly stood up as he heard a sudden 'thump' and several screams. He ran quickly through the door, and there were his parents and sister being taken away, by bakemon. One tried to grab him but he elbowed it in the head as he jumped out the window to find BelialVamdemon (VenomMyotismon) being restrained by the crests, he looked back to the house where his parents and sister cried out to him...

"DON'T LET THEM TAKE YOU BABY!"

Davis turned around and ran, he ran as far as he could, but he ended up bumping into a 12 year old kid. Tai.

"Hey, you alright?! You gotta run! It's dangerous here!"

Davis glared icily at the goggle wearing brunette "Run?! RUN?! I'VE GOT NO WHERE TO RUN! THIS PLACE ITSELF HAS BEEN CORRUPTED! AND YOU KNOW WHAT? IT'S PROBABLY ALL YOUR FAULT! ALL OF YOU! YOU LEFT HIM! THAT.THAT THING TO COME HERE! IF YOU KNOW WHAT'S BEST FOR YOU, RUN! OR ELSE YOUR GOING TO PAY!"

Davis slowly took a knife he grabbed from the kitchen out of his jacket, anger showing in his eyes. The digidestined stepped back.

"I hate you... I hate you ALL!"

Lilymon came flying from the sky, scratches all over her.

"What's going on here? Who is he?"

"I-I don't know Lilymon... But please stop him before he hurts anyone!" Mimi was sobbing hystericly, it hurt her to see a six year old boy threatened by them, who were trying to save the world, and he was accusing them of bringing the evil here.

"You got it Mimi! FLOWER RIEF!"

Davis quickly swiped the knife and sliced the rief in half.

"Don't you dare touch me!"

"Hey, listen kid, you'd better listen to us, or your going to get yourself killed!"

Lilymon flew up trying to gently grab his arm when davis grabbed her wrist and brought the knife to her neck. Everyone gulped in fear that Lilymon was going to be deleted.

"Stay back... All of you!"

"LILYMON...!" Mimi was on the ground now, weeping.

That's when Kari started glowing a light pink.

"Fear not, digidestined, all will be well..." Kari shot a direct light at Davis, and he widened his eyes, gasping for air. He looked around franticly, as he started glowing blue, the pink light started to fade from him.

"What's... Happening, im losing my powers..."

"I... Won't let this happen...! I will... NOT LET YOU CORRUPT ME!"

A tear rolled off Davis' face as his chest started growing, an aching pain spread throughout his body his chest erupted a blue light straight into the bakemon making it dissipate into a million digital particles.

Davis screamed out in pain as it shot straight at VenomMyotismon, making him scream out in pain, Davis slowly closed his eyes, the last thing he saw was - yes, not VenomMyotismon, but Myotismon, with his eyes glowing green.

"Your world... Is doomed!"

********

Davis gasped for air, he thought it was like what he saw on TV, a continuous dream, but when he looked around, he saw he was in some sort of cell. Could it had all been... Real? But what happened?

"Where...and Who... Am I?"
