Author Note: This is the first time I've tried writing a digimon fic but I'm a big fan of the angsty Dai-chan fics and I wanted to give this a go!
Rating: PG13 for now, might change depending on what way the wind blows me to write.
Disclaimer: Alas, digimon is not mine, for if it was, I'd make it possible for people to find the good DVDs that let you watch it in Japanese too.
Was I nothing? Did I really earn so much scorn? Would they be happier if I left and never came back? If I disappeared without a trace? Hmf, most likely, so that's what I'll do . . . disappear . . . no one will miss me . . . the chocolate-haired youth said as he picked up his backpack and duffel bag.
"Sayonara fellow Motomiyas." He said as he left.
" Daisuke! Where are you!" A chocolate-haired teen yelled as she noticed where she was, ran up to an apartment, and knocked load enough to wake the dead ( which was what basically opened the door).
" Huh, Jun? This obsession is really- What's wrong?" A blond-haired teen said as he saw the crying girl. Jun jump-hugged the blond and began sobbing into his very wrinkled shirt.
" I've-e b-been up an-nd down town-n and-d-d I can-n't find-d D-daisuke!" Wailed Jun. The blond scratched his head.
" Uh, maybe he's out doing... things..." He said as Jun shook her head.
" No Yamato! I called all of Dai's friends already and none of them have seen him either! And I know somethings up because he left those toys he always has!" She yelled. Then she held out a small blue item with a blank screen and a bigger gray item with a flip screen. Yamato stared, wide-eyed.
" Dai's digivice... and d-terminal... he wouldn't leave those... unless he didn't... want to be found..." Yamato muttered to himself.
" You know what those are? Whatever! Help me find Dai!" Jun yelled. Yamato noticed people looking out their doors and ushered her into his- "Whata pigsty!" Jun proclaimed when she entered.
"Yes Koushiro, I know it's really late, but Dai left his D3 and d-terminal behind, but still see if you can find him!" Yamato said as he hung up the phone. He had called everyone and none of them could find Dai either. Jun had gone to the police to file a missing persons report. Yamato was becoming very worried. It wasn't like Daisuke to just leave like this, like he didn't want anyone to find him. What could have happened to him? Yamato's thoughts flew for about twenty minutes when his dad came in.
" Yama, what's up?" His dad said. Yamato shook his head and sat down on the couch.
" Dai's disappeared... we can't find him anywhere... He left his D3 and D-terminal behind, so we can't track him either... I'm worried dad..." Yamato said as he shook his head in a forsaken fashion. His dad looked thoughtful.
" Well... If Dai's gone away of his own free will, finding him will be hard... But if he hasn't left the city, which I don't think he did for simple reasons, them there's only so many places he could have gone... My money's on the poor side of town, where all the broken homes and homeless live. There are lots of other runaways living there... He might have sought shelter among them..." Mr. Ishida looked thoughtful as Yamato just stared.
Dai, did you run away from home? Why! Yamato thought... so he thought.
" I don't know why Dai, that's something his family and friends need to solve..." Yamato stared.
" ... I said that out loud? Dang I'm losing it here... So much for Mr. cool..." He sneered then sighed.
" Don't worry Yamato," said Mr. Ishida, putting an arm around his sons shoulders, " Thing will work out in the end." Then, Mr. Ishida up and yawned. " But staying up worrying yourself into a comma isn't going to bring Dai back either, so get some sleep."
" Yeah, lord knows I can sleep now..."
"Ah, ah, ah... " Daisuke took deep breaths, tired from running so long. He wanted to just fall asleep on his bed, but he knew he couldn't. He couldn't go home now. Not when he had ran so far... But still... He had no money or food, no bed, no nothing. "Damn... what am I gonna do? Sigh"
" That depends on you." Dai jumped about tweny feet after that and then turned around. A girl about Yamato's age was staring at him. She had the look of someone that had spent a lot of time on the streets. She wore short blue jean shorts, cut-offs to be honest. Her shirt was a wife-beater that stoped above her belly button and she wore a black treach coat and scarf. Her raven hair was cut in the boyish style, cut around the frame of her face. Sliver eyes, soft sliver eyes, looked him stright in the face as she spoke again in her tomboyish voice. " It's your choice to stay or go, oh, you were speaking out loud, just so you know."
" Oh... I ws wondering about that... I don't wanna go home... But I know I can't live by myself, not yet..." Dai looked down at his shoelaces and started playing with them. The girl smiled.
" There's a small bunch of us that live together in the alleys. We don't have a lot of food, so don't expect a feast or anything, but if you want, you can stay with us. We don't mind as long as you pull your own weight that is." She winked and walked further down the alley.
" All right! Lead the way!" Dai never knew how much things would change... Something he wanted more then anything.
AN: This is the first time I tried writing an Angsty Digimon fic, like I said before, and I know this chapter wasn't anything special, and that I have major gammer problems, but in order to get the story moving the way I want it to, I need to put this up. Help me want to contiune this story!Oh and I know that you don't use -chan with boys, but it will be used here to some affection and prehaps scarism, so live with that, and sorry for misspellings. REVIEW!
