Disclaimer: Don't own them. I would be making movies instead of writing fics if I did!!
Rating: PG
Thankx: To all the reviewers and people who have given me ideas along the way. A special thankx to those who wished me a happy birthday!!
Notes: Some of you may have noticed that TK acted older in the last part. Since Matt has watched over him for so long, now the tables are reversed.
Notes2: Might be just slightly helpful if you read the other parts first if you haven't dne so yet.
Enjoy!!
Tai hurried after TK, checking with nurses and doctors to make sure that he was going in the right direction. After 10 minutes, he finally found him. TK was in the boys' bathroom, his arms wrapped tightly around his knees and sobbing uncontrollably.
Before Tai could say anything to alert TK that he as there, the younger boy spoke, "Go away, Tai," he sniffed.
Tai sat down against the wall next to him. "You can't stay here forever, TK."
"Watch me," he sniffed away the last of hie tears and wiped his tear-streaked face on his arms.
"I'm going to check on Matt, wanna come?"
"I can't, dad'll catch me and take me away," he said miserably.
"Stay here then. I'll come back. I don't want you to get lost in this place."
"Don't tell dad where I am--promise?"
"I promise." Tai got up off the tilled floor and headed for the door. He took one last look at TK, then went out into the hallway. He knew that he should have stayed with him, but Matt was the priority right now. TK would be fine if he stayed where he was.
Tai went back in the direction that he had came in his search for TK, hoping that the others were still in the cafeteria. As he rounded a corner, he ran strait into Mr. Ishida.
The tall man took a step back from Tai. "Did you find Takeru?"
"No," Tai lied. "The twerp lost me!"
Mr. Ishida stepped around Tai and to keep looking, grumbling under his breath.
Tai hurried back to the cafeteria, hoping that TK wasn't found in the meantime. He gave a sigh of relief when he saw the rest of the digidestined standing around a table, quietly talking amongst themselves. "What's happening?" he called out as he got closer.
"We can go back in and see Matt now," Sora said. "The doctors should get the results of the x-rays in soon."
"Where's TK?" Joe asked.
"Hiding in the bathroom. I couldn't get him to leave. As soon as we get the results I need to go let him know."
"Now that we are all hear, let's go!" Mimi said.
They all quickly walked to Matt's room, Izzy trailing a few steps behind. The room was deserted except for the patient.
"Don't hurt yourself, Izzy," Tai said to the boy who was deep in thought.
"What?" Izzy stared at him, missing the joke.
"What were you thinking about?" Joe asked.
"Well, it's just a theory, I haven't had time to thing out all the problems yet, and-" he looked at the impatient kids staring at him, "You know of the time difference between our world and the digiworld, right? One minute here equals roughly a day there. So," he took a breath, "Matt's disease could be progressing faster because he had it in the digiworld and it is going by that time."
"I think I know what you're saying," Mimi said.
"Yeah, but how is that supposed to help Matt? We can't tell the doctors about the digiworld," Sora pointed out.
"Maybe we won't have to," Izzy shrugged, for once, not having a clue.
