Under The Stars
Chapter 4: Let Me Fall
Yamato Ishida brought Mimi into the Captain's Garden by her elbow; it was a very beautiful room. With flowers everywhere, a wooden platform in the middle that was surrounded by a moat.
Mimi was in 'awe' as she looked around the room with her almond shaped eyes.
She could smell fresh orchids; her favorite smell. She could feel the mist from a waterfall nearby, it felt refreshing on her skin. She felt Yamato dragging her to the platform.
"You don't have to be so rough!" Mimi hissed at him as she glared at him.
She was growing tired of this treatment he was giving her. He was so kind to her when she first met him, but now he was a complete jerk.
"Shut up," he said coldly to her without any emotion in his eyes.
Matt pushed her onto to the platform making her scrape her bare knees.
She winced in pain as she felt the burning sensation in her knees.
"I apologize for his attitude, Sir Yamato had never been fond of space pirates," said Prince Ken smiling sweetly at her.
Mimi looked up to see Prince Ken standing in front of her.
She stood up glaring deadly daggers at the hansom young prince. It was starting to sound like a broken record; she was getting sick of being called a space pirate.
"I'm not a damn space pirate!" she yelled at him, she was tired of saying it.
All she was, was just a normal girl from Japan. She was so tired of hearing it. She's a normal girl from Japan. The next thing she knew she was back on the floor and she felt a copper taste in her mouth.
"Watch your tongue you space pirate bitch!" Matt screamed at her as she felt his heel of his boot on the back of her head.
Mimi felt herself crying as she groaned in pain as Matt kept pushing her head to the wooden floor.
"I'm telling the truth!" Mimi screamed as she clenched her fist, digging her nails into her palms causing herself to bleed.
She didn't know what else to say to convince them that she's not a space pirate.
"That's enough Sir Yamato!" Prince Ken exclaimed angrily at him, Matt looked over at his young prince and lifted his foot up off of Mimi's head.
Mimi is somewhat relieved that Ken was here.
"I am truly sorry, Mimi..." Ken said with a frown as he watched Mimi struggle to get up.
As he gazed at Mimi he noticed something odd about her.
Mimi's school uniform caught his attention and he was baffled by it.
"What strange attire for a space pirate... Are you sure she is a space pirate, Sir Yamato?" he said with his thumb to his chin as he circled around Mimi.
"I'm sure your highness," Matt said as he stood in attention.
Mimi watched him as he circled her, it made her very uncomfortable.
"What are you wearing?" Ken asked curiously.
Mimi was dumbfounded, she looked at him as if he was nuts.
"My school uniform..." Mimi answered as she glared at him.
"School?" Prince Ken spoke, he knew what school was and he knew that if she was a space pirate she wouldn't be in school.
He didn't want her executed, so he decided to see if she had any use for him. Ken smiled at her sweetly.
"Do you have any talents my dear?" he asked as he smiled at her.
Mimi gasped, she didn't know why he was asking about her talents.
"I can sing..." she answered sheepishly.
Ken smiled sweetly at her.
"Well... Sing something for us," Prince Ken said as he motioned her to sing.
Mimi blushed a little bit and looked behind her at Matt and then at Ken.
Prince Ken chuckled a little bit and nodded his head.
"It's alright my dear," he said reassuringly with a smile on his face.
Mimi was still unsure about all this.
"Go on... Sing," he said gently, Mimi took a deep breath as she closed her honey brown eyes and started to hum a perfect melody.
Then Mimi started to sing in an angelic voice.
It's October again
Leaves are coming down
One more year's come and gone and nothing's changed at all
Wasn't I supposed to be someone
Who can face the things that
I've been running from
Let me feel
I don't care if I breakdown
Let me fall even if I hit the ground
And if I cry a little
Die a little
At least I know I lived just a little
I've become much too good at being invincible
I'm an expert at play it safe and keep it cool
But I swear this isn't who I'm meant to be
I refuse to let my life roll all over me
Let me feel
I don't care if I breakdown
Let me fall even if I hit the ground
And if I cry a little
Die a little
At least I know I lived just a little
I wanna be somebody
I
I wanna be somebody
I wanna be somebody
I
I wanna be somebody who can face the things that I've been running from
Let me feel
I don't care if I breakdown
Let me fall even if I hit the ground
And if I cry a little
Die a little
At least I know I lived
It's October again
Leaves are coming down
One more year's come and gone and nothing's changed at all
When she was finished singing, Ken was applauding her performance. Even Matt was impressed with her singing.
"You have the gift of song," he said smiling sweetly at her.
Mimi blushed at his compliment.
"Thank you," she said softly as she blushed.
Ken smiled and walked over to her and ran a hand on the back of her neck gently.
"I've made up my mind, you are going to be my bride!" he said smiling at her.
Mimi gasped, she was in pure shock. His words had stunned her.
"Bride?" Mimi had muttered as Ken embraced her in a hug.
Matt stared at the two in disgust as he watched Ken leaned in and kissing her on the forehead.
Meanwhile back on Tai's ship, Tai was figuring out a way to save Mimi.
He was so mad at himself for her getting captured.
"DAMMIT!" Taichi swore as a swirl of dark energy engulfed his fist.
He knew that the prince would find out Mimi's the Earth Bender and he had to get her back before he finds out.
"I'm so stupid!" Tai exclaimed as he squeezed his eyes shut.
Ken already had three Benders, Tai couldn't let him find the last five. Tai squeezed a sphere and an image of his first mate popped up over an image of space. His first mate was sleeping in the pilots chair. Tai growled as he glared at his first mate.
"DAVIS!" he shouted, the young man screamed as he fell off his chair.
"What the hell was that!?" the young man exclaimed as he looked around frantically.
Tai rolled his dark colored eyes as he glared at Daisuke.
"Look at you monitor, dumbass..." Tai grumbled as he crossed is arms over his chest.
Daisuke looked at the monitor and saw Tai's face in the window on his space monitor.
He smiled real big and waved to his captain.
"What's happening captain?" he said with a big stupid grin on his face.
Tai smiled at his first mate.
"I found the Earth Bender," Tai said in a serious tone.
Daisuke gasped when he said that.
"How the hell did you managed to do that!?" Daisuke exclaimed.
"I crash landed in her backyard," Tai said with a smirk.
"You mean on Earth?" Daisuke asked in a surprising tone.
Tai nodded his head with a smile on his face.
Daisuke smiled, he had a sparkle in his eyes.
"I can't believe it... You've found the Earth Bender," he said smiling at his captain.
He could honestly say that he would have never saw that coming.
"So what are we going to do about the Earth Bender?" Daisuke asked as he leaned his chin on the palm of his hand.
"Save her of course," Tai said as he crossed his arms, glaring at his first mate.
"What's the point? As long as they don't have me or you, Ken can't do anything with the Benders," Daisuke said with a confused look on his face.
Tai growled as he shook his head. He look at Daisuke on the floating window with a frown on his lips.
"We have to save the Earth Bender... I know we let Sora down six years ago. But we're not losing this one!" Tai said with so much determination in his voice.
"Listen... I want Sora back as much as you... Saving the Earth Bender isn't going to get Sora back and you know it!" Daisuke said with a frown on his face.
"THAT'S NOT IT!" Tai exclaimed angrily as his brown eyes swirled to grey.
"Then what is it Tai!?" Daisuke exclaimed as his grayish brown eyes swirled to a bright fire red.
Tai gasped at Daisuke's sudden outburst. And he then started to remember what Sora meant to Daisuke. Sora found Daisuke and his younger sister, Jun a long, long time ago.
Taichi and his ship mates were on Planet 23, the planet called Black Hole Sun (Fo: Great song by the band 'Soundgarden'! It's super rad. Go listen to it!) picking up some supplies and Sora found Davis getting jumped by a couple of thugs.
She knew she was the Air Bender since she was very young; it was that day when she saved a young Daisuke the crew had found the Fire Bender by mistake.
They kept Davis being the Fire Bender from everyone for 40 years.
Ken is the Death Bender and he already had one of the Benders; he already had the Water Bender. It was six years ago when Matt captured Daisuke and Jun's beloved Sora; and Daisuke was devastated.
Matt had lured Sora to his ship, because she had feelings for him and Matt took full advantage of her emotions.
Sora's heart was crushed...
Sore meant the world to Tai, Daisuke, and Jun. It was true that Tai had fallen in love with her, but after six long years those feelings were buried away.
But...
With Daisuke and Jun, they saw her as their mother. And Sora saw the two as her children.
Little by little, the memories of Sora being on board on the 'Agumon' started to fade away in Tai's heart, but in Daisuke's they were still going strong.
And Tai understood that...
As Tai's eyes swirled back to chocolate brown, he let out a sigh and smiled warmly at Daisuke.
"I am sorry about that Davis... I know how much Sora means to you and Jun," Tai said apologetic as he bowed his head.
Daisuke smiled back at Tai as he closed his eyes, letting his captain know everything is okay.
When Daisuke opened his eyes they were brown again instead of that bright red from earlier.
"It's cool man! Why do we have to save the Earth Bender so badly?" Daisuke asked smiling as he tilted his head.
Tai looked down as he smiled a small grin.
"She saved my life..." he said calmly as he closed his brown eyes slowly.
Daisuke grinned and nodded his head.
"What's the plan then Captain?" Daisuke asked Tai smiling a toothy grin.
Mimi was sitting on a wooden bench in a cell still in shock.
"I still can't believe he asked me to be his bride... " Mimi said out loud as she stared off into space.
Mimi took in a deep breath as she stood up.
She looked around and when she was certain that no one was near, she fell to the ground, burying her face into the grass and started crying.
Mimi felt so alone...
She felt so scared...
All she wanted to do, was to go home and to see her family and her best friend, Izzy. Then she felt a child's hand on her shoulder. She looked up and saw it was Daichi. She made little sniffling noises as she stared at him. He looked so sad as he stared at Mimi.
"Don't cry Mimi," he cooed as he rubbed her back.
Mimi couldn't hold herself together any longer, so she collapsed in Daichi's tiny arms and started crying again.
"I don't understand! Why am I not waking up!?" Mimi sobbed loudly in Daichi's robes as she grasped the heavy fabric.
Daichi looked at the back of her head and then shook his head with a frown on his face.
Daichi began rubbing the back of her head gently.
"Because... You already are awake," he said still rubbing her head.
"What are you?" Mimi asked him as she laid there still in his small arms.
Daichi took in a deep breath before answering Mimi's question.
"I'm an Avatar..." Daichi answered with a small grin on his face.
Mimi gasped as she looked at him.
"Do you know what an Avatar is, Mimi?" Daichi asked her as he placed his small hands on her shoulders.
"Kinda... My grandmother told me about them..." Mimi said as she nodded her head.
Daichi smiled a little bit; for some reason when that boy smiled Mimi felt safe.
"Tell me what you know," Daichi said smiling at her.
Mimi nodded her head as she tucked her hair behind her ears.
"Well... My grandmother told me a long, long, long, long, long time ago a young rancher named Agumon was born with very special powers," Mimi started.
She noticed that Daichi was smiling and nodding his small head as he listened to the legend that her grandmother had told her. She was surprised that she remembered it; her grandmother must have told her that legend a thousand time, however as Mimi grew older she started to dismiss that legend as a fable or a fairytale.
"Agumon could control water, fire, death, life, earth, air, darkness, and light... He became an Avatar... A source beyond good or evil," Mimi continued telling Daichi.
Mimi was impressed with herself as she continued telling Daichi the legend of Agumon.
"It was said that he gathered the planets eight elements and made a wish, saving the planet and to this day no one knew what that wish was..." Mimi finished.
She noticed that Daichi was staring at her small birth mark that was in the shape of a leaf on her wrist.
"You know Mimi... That legend was half true," Daichi said grinning as he continued to stare at her wrist.
"What do you mean?" Mimi asked as she covered her birthmark with her hand.
Daichi took his eyes off of her wrist and looked at her face.
"Well... Agumon was the name of my ship," he answered with a small shy grin on his face.
Mimi gasped at what he just said.
She couldn't believe her ears.
"W-What?" Mimi stuttered as she stared at him with a blank stare.
"I'm the Avatar... Well at least I was..." Daichi said smiling as he scratched the back of his head.
Mimi's honey brown eyes looked like a deer caught in the headlights.
"What are you saying Daichi?" Mimi asked him as she stared at him in shock.
Daichi took in a deep breath before answering Mimi.
"Lets start with the Benders... There are eight of them," he began.
Mimi couldn't believe she was talking to a dead person.
"Earth, Air, Fire, Water,Death, Life, Light, and Darkness. After one dies another becomes a Bender. When you have all eight and the Avatar... You can have one wish," Daichi continued telling her.
"What about the Avatar?" Mimi asked him as she stared at him.
"Well... I think you'd be better off asking the current one yourself... He'll be here any minute," Daichi said as he looked outside of the glass cell.
Mimi frowned, she had no idea what he's talking about.
"What?" Mimi said as she stared at him.
Daichi chuckled a little bit.
"You already met him," he said smiling at her.
Mimi gasped a little bit.
"Who is he!?" Mimi exclaimed as she grabbed his arms.
"It's Taichi..." Daichi answered with a smile on his face.
Mimi gasped, she couldn't believe that Taichi was the new Avatar.
"Taichi..." Mimi mumbled his name.
She couldn't believe it...
All this time, Tai was the Avatar.
