Hey everyone how are you? Anyway this is my first Digimon story and to be honest with you it may not be the best. I'm not really a fan of Digimon although there is a season which I completely love XD I think it was called Digmon Xros Wars/Fusion. Anyway this was a request from 'Jameis' so I decided to accept it ;) I decided to, most likely, make this story have three parts. So anyway I want to thank Jameis for asking me to write this story it makes me feel quite proud of myself :3. On the other hand though I want to warn those of you guys reading this, that this is not going to be one of my main stories therefore it will not be updated too often... especially since I'll be stuck in hospital for most of next month, but I hope you enjoy it XD. Reviews, favs and alerts (or are they called follows now?) are much appreciated and will encourage me to post chapters faster. So without further ado let's begin the story :D
Disclaimer: (This is the first time I bothered to post this...) I do not own Digimon or most of the characters that appear in this story however the plot is mine as well as few of the characters.
"Oh man, I don't get this one bit!" A maroon haired boy groaned as he sat by a petit wooden table in a mildly lit room.
The enclosed space was dark however it did have a single source of light; a tiny, almost invisible gap between the curtains. This allowed a minimal amount of sunlight to peek into the room, and therefore highlight a thick text book which lay on a small table that was placed in the middle of the chamber. Davis a boy no older than fourteen sat by the slab. His head was resting in his palms, and his sloppy, hair hung loosely, covering his face.
A few more minutes passed with absolutely no movement from the teenager, well except for the occasional blink of his eyes along with the slow rising and falling of his chest as he breathed in the dusty air of the room.
A vicious knocking on the door brought Davis back to reality. The boy's eyes widened due to the sudden surprise of the loud noise but after a second, or so he gave a quick yawn before pulling himself up to his bare feet.
"I'm coming!" Davis said sternly with a hint of agitation in his voice as he strolled across the darkness of the room tripping over several times on the way.
When the boy finally reached his bedroom door he reached for the silver handle with one hand and the lock with the other. With one swift motion the door burst open as soon as the click of the lock was heard and the door was released from the position it was stuck in for the past numerous amount of days.
The door was swung open with such force that Davis suddenly lost his footing and was swept along with it until he hit the wall full force with the door completely squashing him, that's what it felt like, at least to his thin, exhausted body that hadn't eaten or rested for at least three days now.
"Finally, I thought you were never going to come out," A voice belonging to a young girl rung across the room as she stood in the doorway, her chocolate eyes shimmering through the darkness.
"Hey, bro where are you?" Even though the girl waited patiently for a response she didn't get any, so with a long sigh she made her way across the carpet, gracefully dodging all the books that lay on the floor making it difficult to walk through.
When the teenager finally reached her destination; the window, she forcefully gripped the curtains before pulling them apart. In an instant the room was emerged in the beautiful golden rays of the sun as they broke through the window pushing the darkness away. Particles of dirt and dust bathed in the sunlight as they danced around the room making it almost suffocating to breath. Without wasting any more time the girl used both hands to push the dirty window open, however it wasn't easy especially since it hadn't been opened for an eternity, that's what anyone would think if they saw it anyway.
The girl whose face was now clearly visible poked her head out through the window. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath of the fresh autumn air. Her chestnut spikey hair drooped onto her closed eyes and as the breeze blew gently against her face, the girl's bangs flowed peacefully along with it.
Suddenly a loud groan was heard coming from inside, this brought the girl's attention, with a deep inhalation she pulled herself away from the beauty that nestled outside the filth covered room she was forced to stand it again.
At first the young lady simply looked around not leaving her spot on the carpet. She turned to the left and right observing the mess she was standing in a searching for any source of life. Her face finally lit up as she noticed an arm flopping out from behind the white door on the other side of the room.
"Brother!" She called out energetically as she hopped excitedly across the room with a large smile spread across her face, a drastic change to the slightly angry face she had on at first when she saw the state of the room.
Another groan made its way around the room bouncing of the four walls. The teenage girl however completely ignored it as she launched for the door drawing it away and pulling her brother into a tight embrace.
Davis on the other hand was slopping in her eyes like jelly his eyes where replaced by thick black swirls and his head was arched back. His legs where bent with his knees on the floor and his sister supporting his entire weight.
"Oh, I missed you so much bro, you haven't come out of here for three whole days, how did you survive? With no food, water or toilet to go to I'm surprised. I was so worried about you; you can't even begin to understand!" Even though with every word the girl squeezed the younger boy even tighter than previously, he didn't make a single movement although his face was clearly growing paler every second.
Eventually the girl pulled away from the younger boy holding him further away on outstretched arms, allowing the colour to slowly make its way back to his now completely white face.
"Yuck! You stink" She exclaimed before letting go of the body and brushing her pretty pink vest off.
The sudden impact of being dropped to the ground caused Davis to regain consciousness.
"That hurt, what you do that for?" He asked as he sat up massaging his head with his dirty, scratched and ink covered hand.
"You should be grateful that I woke you up after all, the exam is tomorrow and I bet you can't learn a thing in your current state." The girl exclaimed as she crossed her arms and turned away from Davis whose eyes where now filled with worry.
"Dam I need to get back to studding!" As he said this he turned over in order to crawl back to his spot by the table however his path was blocked by his sister and each time he tried to go around she would step in his way.
"What are you doing Jun? I don't have time for this I need to study for tomorrow's exam!" Davis said sternly however the girl, Jun did not move, instead she bent over without bending her knees only her top half and waved her finger in the boy's face.
"You won't accomplish anything in this state, now go and have a bath, here put some fresh clothes on after that" As she said this she pulled some clothes out of the wardrobe and chucked them at her brother.
Davis wanted to protest however the scary look that Jun was giving him at that moment discouraged him from doing so. Instead the maroon haired heaved himself up and made his way angrily through the doorway without looking back. When Jun was sure he was gone she let out a sigh of relief before scratching her head as she looked around the mess she was standing in.
"This is going to take a while," Jun whispered before lowering her hand.
Davis's jaw dropped open.
Only a few minutes ago he finished rinsing down the bath and properly drying his hair, now he stood, with a towel still drooped around his left arm. As he stood staring by the rim of the door he still couldn't believe his dark, baggy eyes. The room which he previously sat it, filled with books that overlay each other, decorating, or rather messing up the entire area, was no clean and fresh and Davis could have sworn that he could see it shimmer occasionally.
"Now to finish," Jun exclaimed excitedly as she picked up a silver can of the table in the middle and shook it gently before twirling round several times spraying out the contents into the atmosphere of the room.
Jun didn't even realise when Davis finally finished bathing and walked into the room before stopping and standing motionlessly by the door, amazed at the progress his sister made during his absence.
Now with the air freshener sprayed, the room felt good as new and not only did it look good it also smelt good and had a friendly, helpful atmosphere around it, the type that could help anyone study. Hopefully it would help Davies too, that's what Jun hoped for anyway.
Jun exhaled a sigh of relief before taking a good look around the room, clearly proud of herself. As she spun around she was surprised to see her younger brother standing by the entrance of the door looking enhanced. Jun had to try to prevent herself from laughing as she stared at her brother's surprised and slightly confused face.
"Come on let's go down and eat, before it gets cold" As she said this, her smile faded away slightly, after all eating breakfast sure brought back a lot of memories.
Davies noticed his sister's sudden attitude change and instantly smiled spinning around on the spot and running through the corridor excitedly shouting' "Yeah breakfast time, you're the best sis!"
Almost instantly Jun's smile returned as she saw Davies' happy go lucky attitude, 'Smiling really was infectious' she mumbled under her breath before blinking away her tears and sprinting off after her younger brother.
Darkness, a world shrouded in pitch black shadows. A tragic biosphere where everything bore signs of havoc, the once peaceful, healthy, vegetated world was, no more, extinct and forgotten. A bright bolt of lightning broke through the filthy, grey clouds striking down yet another once beautiful tree, turning it to ash, allowing it to match with its surroundings. Although the world was ugly and wasted it wasn't uninhabited, filled with millions of creatures called digital monsters. The 'Digital World', now belonging to a single dark force. A man in control of not only the inhabitants but also nature itself, the entire world is now in his grasp however for this man the world is not enough, what he aims for is something bigger, much bigger.
Sudden cheers erupted from below, from a dark and trashed stadium. The seats where filled with thousands of Digimon and even some humans where present, enjoying the unfolding match that was happening on the stadium grounds. Below, the stadium's once sandy, golden terrain was now dyed a deep crimson, but not with paint or dye. This stadium was dyed with blood, the thick liquid that was extracted out of Digimon due to tough fights with almost all ending with death. This stadium is living proof of the horror that is happening around this world and the pain it causes as well as the lives it consumes with no regrets.
Currently on the field stood a small blue monster with large feet with long, sharp but broken claws. A large gash was visible on the Digimon's head, covered with blood; there was another larger laceration on his once white tummy. Overall the helpless blue monster was exhausted, covered with cuts and bruises, quickly taking in breaths as he continuously avoided his opponent's immense claws. Varodurumon stood its ground, thrashing its deathly claws around at the helpless, petit monster standing only a few feet away. The enormous bird however did not give up as it threw its head at the Digimon, its humongous beak tearing the flesh of the creature's shoulder leaving behind its exposed bone.
Within seconds the stadium erupted in cheers.
However up at the top of the stadium's tower, behind thick blood-splattered windows, sat a figure. Although the room was dark his impression was clearly visible. His masculine face was leaning on his clenched fist, his eyes where blood-shot and showed clear signs of disappointment, however there was also a tint of impression within them and his wicked smile clearly reflected upon this.
"Answer me this, why is it that Varodurumon is having so much trouble with that pesky, blue creature?"
A blue haired male teenage boy stepped out of the shadows. The boy bowed down and presented the man with a small, red devise with a large screen. The screen showed a picture, a slightly smudged photo of a young child, a boy to be precise, with maroon spikey hair and goggles. The boy had a bright grin on his face and was winking with his arm out in front of the camera with a peace sign. By his side jumping in the air was 'Veemon' the blue Digimon that was currently putting up a fight against the massive, experienced, champion level, bird monster.
"Master, this boy was a 'DigiDestined' he was the master of that blue creature."
"Huh… This kid? He sure doesn't look like anything special but… Get me more information on him, now"
"Yes sir" With a single salute the teenager spun around and formally made his way back into the darkness.
"This kid, if he really was the one to train that blue beast, then maybe he could help me with my ideals" As another bolt of lightning struck the digital world it clearly highlighted the wicked smile that spread across the face of the dark haired man.
"Ahh, that was delicious sis, you really are an amazing cook" Davis exclaimed as he tipped back against his seat, rubbing his plump belly.
Jun couldn't help but laugh at her brother's appetite; it was good to know that after all they went through he was still the same.
Davis smiled before he collected the dishes in.
"Hey don't worry I can do that, you go back and study, your test's coming up after all"
"Yeah, well I'll leave it to you sis," Davis placed the dishes back down before walking out of the dining room leaving Jun behind.
'I'm sorry sis, I wish I could help you but I don't want you to see me like this, and after everything you did for me' Tears filled the teenagers eyes as he thought about his sister.
Davis walked into his room, shutting the door behind him and locking it. He didn't want this, he regretted keeping his sister out dearly but he didn't have a choice, after all he needed to pass his exams in order to get a job and help his sister out. There was no other choice.
Davis grabbed the orange, hardback covered book from his desk and collapsed onto his bed with it. As he landed the he dropped the book onto his chest before sighing. Davis lay still for a while looking into space. After a while the boy reached out his arm bolting his fingers together and looking through the gap between his fingers and thumb, he looked through with one eye focusing his vision on the star on his ceiling.
After half an hour or so Davis rolled onto his stomach and flipped the textbook open, prepared to revise for the upcoming test.
"Hey Davis are you ready for the exam?"
Davis turned around in his seat and was surprised to see his classmate standing behind him, a large smile spread across her face.
"Oh hi, yeah I guess, I mean I spent ages revising for it"
"That's good, the exam's after lunch break so do you want to hang out?"
"Sorry, but no thanks I need to get some last minute revision before the exam"
"Alright well, good luck, bye"
"Yeah thanks, bye" As Davis said the girl gave him a quick wave before she spun around and left the classroom, her eyes however displayed signs of dissapointment.
Davis pulled out his bento from his bag along with his orange book and placed them on the table unnoticing the stares he was receiving. However as he was unwrapping his bento from the blue cloth it was wrapped around in he couldn't help but think to himself, 'Who was that girl she looks kind of familiar, do I know her?'
"So do you think he's ok then?" Takeru asked as the girl, Kari, joined him.
Kari looked up at her friend; his blonde hair was flowing into his shimmering gray eyes and his tone clearly revealed his worry.
"I don't know" Kari admitted her voice was slightly shaky and she looked upset, allowing her chestnut shoulder length hair to cover her eyes as she turned her gaze to the floor.
"What are you talking about, that kid is strong, he'll be fine, just leave him alone, why are you suddenly so worried about him?'
Kari was surprised by the voice and instantly looked up, her eyes glimmering. Beside her stood Ken, his hair cut short still the same shade of blue as always. However although Ken had been friends with them for a long time, Kari still couldn't understand his personality properly, why was it that sometimes he could be so cold while at other times he was so kind? On the other hand though she knew that he was right, why was she suddenly worried about her old companion, what was this bad feeling she keeps feeling whenever she looks at him?
"We should probably listen; after all I think Ken understands him better than either of us, at least he used to"
Kari switched her attention to Takeru, she could notice the sadness in his eyes and couldn't help but nod, "Yeah, I guess you're right, let's go"
Takeru nodded and as he turned to follow, he looked one more time at his old partner, 'What exactly happened to us when we returned to this world?' Thought Takeru as he remembered the way Davis distanced himself away from the group, and as the years passed the fissure between them simply grew bigger each passing day. Now after almost three and a half years Davis seemed to be somewhere unreachable, somewhere far where none of them could reach him, they couldn't even talk to him properly. Takeru himself hadn't talked to Davis for almost three years now, and today was the first time Kari spoke to their old team-mate since two years. Even though in the beginning Kari tried to speak to Davis, keep in touch with him, fix their friendship, the maroon-haired teenager kept slipping further and further away from all their grasps. He wouldn't even look any of them in the eyes, moreover he never had the same look in his eyes that he did in the 'Digiworld' whenever he looked at Kari. To Takeru it felt like Davis had lost all his past feelings and emotions when he arrived back on Earth. Davis was simply no longer the Davis they knew, so then why did he feel so uneasy, why was Takeru so worried about then one who abandoned them, the one who decided to brake all bond with them? Why did Takeru feel the need to stay behind?
Ken could feel a shiver run up his spine, he felt alarmed, he had a strong urge to turn around and run back to the classroom. However he knew he couldn't do that, if he did he would simply worry both Kari and Takeru who were following him. No matter how hard Ken thought about it he couldn't figure out why he felt so restless. Why was it that his senses led him all the way from his classroom on the third floor down to class 2-D on the second floor? Why was it that he couldn't say anything else about Davis, that the only words that came out of his mouth where words that felt like they were forced out in order to calm himself down? Why did Ken feel like he was abandoning someone in need, someone who was in trouble?
"What exactly is going on?" Ken asked himself under his breath as he attempted to ignore the urge to turn back. The urge that grew bigger with every step he took.
'I can't take it anymore what in the world is this feeling?' All three of the kids shouted out in their minds, before they all spun around and raced back in the direction they came from.
As they run they were surprisingly joined by Yolei the purple haired girl and Cody the young genius; however none of them spoke or exchanged greetings, they simply run, following their intuition.
A group of girls sat on the benches in their class, each of them had a bento placed on their lap as they discussed their weekend plans with each other. There were also three boys standing at the front of the class chatting about an exciting football match that occurred the previous day. There were a few other students scattered around the classroom eating lunch, revising, doing homework, chatting. All of them where doing their own thing until…
"DAVIS!" The door suddenly swung open and five kids stood in the doorway, they were all sweating with their mouths open after all shouting at the same time, in complete sync.
All the students in the class turned their gaze to the door surprised.
"Sorry is Davis here?" Yolei asked while trying to catch her breath.
"Sorry but you just missed him Davis left a few sec…" The brunette girl with braids who answered was suddenly interrupted by Kari.
"Do you know where he is now?"
"He said he was going to get some fresh air on the roof" A tanned boy with black hair and large chocolate eyes answered.
"Thanks!" Takeru yelled back as the group sprinted to the staircase that lead to the roof.
The steel door burst open and all five kids erupted through, a sudden gash of wind hit Kari knocking her of balance and causing her to fall onto Cody who in turn fell on Yolei as the three fell to the ground leaving only Takeru and Ken standing they saw a bright flash of light coming from in front of them. The group was forced to shut their eyes due to the sudden shock, Ken however managed to preserve one eye from closing, and as he stared into the light he could see a figure within it, a human figure with messy hair swishing madly in the wind and what seemed like a tie flattering uncontrollably. Ken focused his vision turning his head slightly forward and forcing his other eye to open. However, only a second later the light disappeared. The group reopened their eyes and Takeru helped Kari and Cody up while Yolei already managed to pull herself up to her feet.
"What was that?" Takeru asked as soon as both Kari and Cody where up.
"Don't know it was really intense though."
As the four of them discussed the event Ken stood in silence, glued to his position because even though the light, finally, disappeared. The figure vanished with it.
"Hey what's that?" Kari asked as she pointed to a black object lying on the ground.
Cody run towards it, followed by the others and as he reached the object he picked it up.
"A watch?" Yolei asked as she had a closer look.
"Isn't that Davis'?" Kari asked as she took it from Cody for closer examination.
At that moment the pieces of the puzzle linked up within Ken's mind and instantly he looked up into the sky before whispering "Davis…" as another sudden gust of wind attacked them.
Darkness, a pitch black landscape. The sensation of drifting in nothingness was all that he sensed. Is this how it felt to be dead? Was this the border to heaven or hell or the bridge to the other world?
Suddenly within crimson light appeared a body. A body belonging to a muscular, middle-aged man with blood-shot eyes and pure black hair, the man wore a neat black suit and had a wicked smile on his face.
Then he spoke, his words echoing within the darkness, loudly and clearly "I welcome you Davis, my friend, to our world…"
