"What if I have limits but you don't?"
Yuu looked around. "Akari-san, where are we?" He wiped his brow, and Akari thought his face looked a little green. She tried to smile, but the look in her eyes said it all.
"Well, somewhere we shouldn't be, I guess," she replied, looking around. It was that same place Taiki had shooed her out of like an errant child. Well, now she was here, and he was nowhere in sight. Neither of them had a Digimon, but they had legs. They could probably survive, so long as they were careful.
Akari hated being careful.
"I don't think we have much of a choice," Yuu muttered. He shot Akari a wary look. "Let's stick close, okay?"
Akari nodded, biting her tongue.
Would they meet Taiki here? What would he do if they did?
She couldn't worry about these questions. They had to figure out just what this place was. And so they walked.
It was quiet for the most part. She swore she heard a splattering noise, but that could be anything at this point. She hurried on, glancing back to look for Yuu. His face still looked pasty but he held himself up and kept walking. Then he paused and looked to the right.
"Yuu-kun, what is it?"
Yuu shook his head and grimaced. "Thought I heard something…"
"Let's hope not," Akari muttered. "We can't fight."
"Sure you can," said a quiet voice over their heads. "You just have to choose to."
Akari felt her skin crawl and hated it.
"Don't worry, Akari," Taiki said, voice gentle. "I won't stop you anymore."
