Gahh! Sorry but I had a really good story going and all of a sudden my laptop dies on me. Needless to say I did not save -__-. ... Any who... this chapter is actually going to be shorter than the original, not wanting to suffer through the agony of the first time I wrote it...
Chapter 9 Love's Pain
"Biyomon where do you think we are?" An exausted Sora asked.
"Let me see..." Biyo flew up to the tops of the trees seeing what there was around them. To the left she spoted Toy Town. She flew down back to where Sora was. "Sora, let's got that way. We'll get to see some familiar places over there."
"Alright... Biyomon do you think you can digivolve now?"
"Hmm let me check... ... ... Yep! Whatever forced us to de-digivolve is gone now."
Sora cheered, "That's great Biyo! With you flying high in the sky we'll find our friends alot faster."
"Biyomon digivolve to ... Birdramon." Birdramon soared through the sky and landed in the center of toy town. It was bright and full of life. The toys were about playing some lovely games. Birdramon de-digivolved and the two began to walk around. "Hello! Anyone home?"
A big yellow bear apeared with a hand full of balloons. "Sora! My you have grown up! And Biyomon How's it going?" Monzaemon said gleefully.
"We're doing great!" Biyomon said.
"That's brilliant. What can I do for you? Maybe a hug?"
Sora smiled. "That would be kind but actually we were looking for the other digidestined... have you seen anyone else?"
"Why yes I have. He's here in toy town playing with some of the toys right now. He said his name was Cody and he had an Armadillomon with him. They're a funny pair those two." The giant teddy showed them to where Cody was.
"Cody!" Sora was relieved.
"Hey Sora! Biyomon! How's it hanging?" Armadillomon asked.
"We're fine." Biyo said.
"I wonder where everyone went. I mean we landed just outside of Toy Town..." Cody began
"And we were still somewhere in the middle of the forest when we stopped." Sora finished.
"Hmmm... I suggest we go look for the others. Regroup and all that." Biyomon stated.
"Yeah that sounds great." Armadillomon said.
"Too bad you won't get a chance to save yourself," An evil voice interrupted from above. The digidestined looked up to see a faux Gatomon looking at them.
"Umm... this isn't a costume party..." Armadillomon joked.
The False kitty raged. "THIS IS NOT A COSTUME! I'm BETSUMON!"
"Betsumon? Never heard of you..." Biyomon teased.
"Well you will now! Cold Gag!" He aimed for the digidestined.
"Watch out!" Biyomon knocked Sora away and Armadillomon did the same for Cody. They all tumbled off to the side.
"Hey! That's not fair!"Armadillomon shouted, "Armadillomon digivolve to ... ANKYLOMON!"
"Biyomon digivolve to ... BIRDRAMON!"
"Megaton Press!" Ankylomon launched after Betsumon crushing him under his weight. He bounced off finding the kitty nearly unharmed.
"Try again..."
"Meteor Wing!" The fireballs attacked Betsumon but he was unaffected.
"Maybe we should try going Ultimate," Sora suggested.
Cody agreed but then realized Ankylomon couldn't digivolve without Angemon. Where are you TK?
The crest of Love began to glow prompting Birdramon to digivolve. "Birdramon digivolve to ... GARUDAMON! Wing Blade!"
"Miss me! Miss me! Now you gonna have to kiss me!" Betsumon called.
"Oh no its no good!" Sora said hopelessly.
"If only Patamon was here, then we could DNA digivolve," Ankylomon said. Cody sighed.
"Hand of Fate!" cried a voice from above. The attack disintegrated the digimon in one swoop.
Sora, Garudamon, Cody and Ankylomon looked up and saw the answer to their wishes.
"TK!" Cody yelled.
Takeru gazed down at them, raising an eyebrow.
"How did Angemon manage to kill that digimon in one blow?" Sora sounded impressed.
Takeru shrugged slightly bored, "That digimon was bloody annoying. There's no mercy for those who pester me."
Sora was a bit shocked. "I've never heard you say anything like that."
The blonde was confused. "Am I supposed to know you?"
"TK its us! Cody and Ankylomon and Sora and Garudamon!" Cody pleaded.
He gazed at them still in the dark.
"Angemon how about you? Tell TK who we are!" Garudamon called to the angel.
Angemon chose to remain silent.
"Wait a second something's different about you..." Sora scanned the boy, his clothes were definitely different but something else.
"Hey where's Monzaemon?" Cody asked realizing the disappearance of the Teddy...
Takeru grinned, "Oh that yellow stuffed toy?"
Ankylomon hesitated, "... Yeah... have you seen him?"
"Yep..." He was amused now.
"Well where is he..." asked the redhead.
"Gone."
"What do you mean gone?" This time the youngest answered.
"Gone as in, I destroyed him," He smiled, "That load of cotton balls utterly urked me. He was going on about eight years ago when we last met...blah de blah de blah... how he wanted to give me a hearts attack hug... blah blah blah. Then when I told him I was here on a mission to kill you lot, he get's in my way saying he will protect you. Much protection he will give you all now..." The boy was laughing a bit as he looked at the stunned faces of the digidestined.
"...you killed...Monzaemon?" Cody stuttered. "And now you're planning to kill ....us?"
"Yep. Didn't I say that already?"
"TK! How could you do something like that!" Sora was shocked.
"Sweetheart, you're cute and all but I highly doubt I know you. You are just like the last bunch I faced. 'Oh TK this! And TK that!' I mean honestly I don't know any of you and my name's Takeru not TK." The blonde was annoyed.
"Angemon why didn't you stop any of this?" Garudamon asked him.
Angemon stood silent. Takeru answered for him, "He's my digimon! Angemon won't disobey me. And besides he didn't kill Monzaemon."
"Who did?" Sora was afraid to ask.
"Me!" A tall womanly figure appeared beside Takeru with a shorter figure.
"Who are you!?" Ankylomon asked
"Me boy? Do you have no respect by addressing me in that matter? I am a Queen after all... QueenChessmon to be exact," Her lips curled at the ends.
The shorter digimon spoke as well, "And I am her King, and yours as well, address me as KingChessmon."
"Oh man this ain't good y'all" Ankylomon panicked a bit.
"Why?" Cody asked his partner.
"Well," Garudamon interjected, "Those two are Mega leveled digimon, and with an Ultimate and a Champion... our chances don't look too good."
Sora gulped. Oh no!
"Hmmm... afraid are you?" The blonde in black grinned. His smile was so innoccent... "Well now I thought you lot can do so much better. I've heard of you. The great digidestined who defeated Devimon, and Etemon, Myotismon, The Dark Masters, and Apocalymon, The Digimon Emperor and Daemon, and of course MaloMyotismon."
"Yeah we did defeat all those evil digimon!" Sora told him, "But you know what you were there with us each leg of the journey!"
Takeru shrugged, his face showed how uncaring he was, "I highly doubt that."
"Well, Angemon how about you? Don't you remember any of that?" Ankylomon asked his DNA digivolving partner.
"..." The angel was unresponsive.
"Angemon... do you know what?" Takeru asked his partner.
The angel looked back.
"I'm bored..." The blonde glared at the digidestined. Then he smirked, "Let's have some fun. KingChessmon, QueenChessmon I'd like you to do your stuff."
"Yes Master Takeru," They said in unison. The two charged foreward
KingChessmon called to his queen, "Are you ready my love?"
"Yes my dear," The queen called back. "Heart Breaker!" She hit Ankylomon in his vital points. The big digimon was knocked out cold. "Grand Cricket!" She continuously beated him.
"NO! ANKYLOMON!" Cody screeched.
Ankylomon de-digivolved to youngest child began to cry, "UPAMON!"
"Wing Blade!" The big bird hit the queen knocking her stick away.
"Hmph... that hurt!"
"Well not as much as this will. Wing Blade!" This time she missed.
"What will hurt?" QueenChessmon mocked.
Takeru was enjoying himself as Cody rushed over to his partner. The blonde noticed this and leaped from the roof where he stood to block Cody's path. "Tsk Tsk ... now little boy like you shouldn't get in the way of business." Takeru wagged his finger.
"I am not little I'm fucking fourteen." Cody raged.
In the background Garudamon fell at the cause of QueenChessmon's "Heart Breaker Attack" Gardamon de-digivolved to Biyomon.
"Let me go!" Cody screeched as Takeru held onto his arm.
"TK! Let him go now!" Sora spoke up clearly furious. She walked up to the blonde and slapped him across his face.
He was stunned for a moment. Everyone froze at it happened.
"Oh no." QueenChessmon sighed.
"The master's angry." KingChessmon smiled.
"And when he's angry."
"There's consequences." They both nodded in agreement. Angemon stood frozen unable to move.
Takeru glared at Sora. She gasped. There was pure fury and chaos behind those eyes.
"You fucking bitch..." He slapped her back and threw Cody off to the side. Then he tilted her chin up so she could see him. "Now because you did that sweatheart, I'm really upset. Enough so..." He grabbed a knife from within his jacket and walked over to a collapsed Biyomon.
Sora was in tears, she had a strong feeling what was happening. "NO! TK! DON'T! BIYOMON!" She was helpless.
"Say bye bye birdy," And Takeru slit the bird's throat. Biyomon's data scattered into the sky.
"BIYOMON!" Sora screeched.
_______________
TK jolted from his slumber... He was still in the realm of darkness. But he saw in his head what had happened to his outerself. Biyomon! Tears fell from his eyes. No!
Don't Worry Takeru.
Why shouldn't I worry? I k-killed Biyomon.
That was not you...
But they don't know that wasn't me! And it was still my body!
Takeru it wasn't your fault.
Bu-
If you're here how can you be the one to do that?
Bu-
Listen Takeru... You need to be strong and find a way to escape.
TK was in shock for a moment. He felt a warmth in his heart. Angemon.
Yes... Angemon can help you.
Yes... I need to believe he can. His chest began to glow the symbol for hope.
I believe in you...
_______________
Angemon was horrified by what his partner did... but he couldn't do anything to stop it. He was there to keep a watch over TK, make sure TK himself was safe. But still... Biyomon. I pray you make a safe journey back to primary village.
A warm glow surrounded him. He was instantly alerted. Angemon... He heard TK within him.
TK! Where are you?
I don't know... just know that that person in my body isn't really me
TK... he killed--
I know. I wish I could have stopped him.
TK...
Angemon I want you to transfer a bit of my hope to Sora.
Why?
Because she needs it more than I do right now.
...
Don't worry Angemon.
Okay but how should I do it? I mean I can't just give her a hand of fate that will give her the wrong impression.
Use an arrow and aim for her digivice...
A what? TK I've only ever used an arrow once and that was when I hit your brother so Gabumon could digivolve to MetalGarurumon.
I believe you can do it...
Alright then, if you think I can... Angemon sighed. The glow disappeared and formed into an arrow. Sora was on the ground crying. Luckily, her digivice was right beside her.
"Well here it goes..." Angemon threw the arrow down below The rest only saw this pass by there vision.
Cody tried to get up "Sora Watch out!"
Sora looked up and saw an arrow headed directly towards her. "Oh no!"
The arrow hit its target, the digivice. A light exploded from the digivice, an warm white glow, one filled with hope.
"Wait a second, what are you trying to do?" Takeru could feel the light and it was a warning for him to leave. "Angemon, QueenChessmon, KingChessmon let's go! Now!"
The boy tried to run. Sora then remembered back to when she was eleven they used the digivice to take away the darkness. "This is for the real TK and for Biyomon!" she picked up the digivice and hit Takeru full blast, a mix of love and hope attacked the blonde.
His eyes changed from dark blue to light blue flickering for a moment. "Thank you Sora..." He said under the pain. "I'm sorry about Biyomon but I can't stay... please find the others and defeat Devimon he's the one that did all this..." his irises darkened once more.
Angemon shouted to the chesspieces, playing his role quite well, "Take Him away NOW!" Afraid of what Takeru would do to them once he recovered, QueenChessmon picked up the boy and they fled through a portal.
Angemon glanced back at Sora and mouthed thank you to her. He left as the portal closed behind him.
Sora broke down crying. She missed Biyomon so much.
"Sora I think we should go to primary village first. You know and find Biyomon." He said as he collected the feinted upamon. She nodded in agreement.
"Need a lift?" A voice behind them said. They turned and saw Izzy flying on Kabuterimon. They landed and saw a distraught Sora with an angry Cody, "What happened?"
"TK...he killed Biyomon..." Cody said.
Izzy was shocked. "It can't be!"
"It's not true." Cody and Izzy looked at Sora. "It wasn't TK." She tried to explain. "Who ever that person is is a wolf in TK's skin. TK-- he's being held captive by Devimon."
Izzy stared at the teary eyed red head. "Sora I'm sorry."
She shook her head, "It's not your fault.. besides I know how to save him..."
Sora pointed to her digivice.
"The Light!" Izzy understood.
"Yeah." She said.
Cody realized what they were trying to say, "Oh like when we defeated MaloMyotismon! We all used our digivices to destroy that darkness."
"Yeah," Izzy agreed, "And we also used the digivices eight years ago against devimon the first time."
"TK hates the darkness, I wish he hadn't been the one to be taken." Cody remembered back to when The Digimon Emperor had gone into the dark whirlpool to create Kimeramon using a part of Devimon. He saw the hatred in TK burn bright.
"I think that was one of the reasons why he was captured. That and the fact that other than light, hope is one of the purest crests in existence." Izzy explained.
"I think – maybe we should find the others. Its better to work together as group rather than be seperated." Sora said solemnly.
"Hold on a second I hear something over there." Cody exclaimed. They all hid in the bushes to find Kia and Mia talking.
"Why are you not coming with me?" Kia whined.
"Because we're too different, honestly if I had known I would have killed you from the start." Mia coolly explained.
"But we're sisters. Twins. BFFs!"
"We never were any of those things and you know it!"
"I can't believe you're soooo cruel!"
"I'm cruel? I should go tell him what you have been doing. He'll surely destroy you that way."
"I'm just trying to -"
"To what?"
Kia paused.
"That's what I thought you don't deserve to be the holder of the crest of brilliance!"
"Well you definitely earned your crest... what was it? Oh yeah! THE. CREST. OF. DARKNESS!" Kia turned to the bushes to where the others were froze. "Did you hear that you guys. Mia has the crest of darkness."
Mia pulled on her counterparts arm, "How dare you..."
Kia shrugged it off, "I guess we really are different." She whispered something else completely inaudible to the others.
"K-kia!"
"Bye sister... and for you all hiding in the bushes I'll see you soon, just gotta find the others."
Kia disappeared with Solarmon. Mia turned away but then realized something. "Hey wait Izzy, Sora, Cody!"
They didn't want to stay so they fled on Kabuterimon.
"NO WAIT!" Mia looked down in disappointment.
Lunamon looked up. "Don't worry Mia, we'll get to them soon."
"I hope so but for now we should go see him."
"Okay," Her digimon said in her soft sweet voice.
They opened up a dark portal and walked through it. Disappearing into the blackness.
