Do You Know How I Feel?: Part 11


Matt's P.O.V.*@----}----{----@*

I was falling. It was like falling from the real world to the digiworld. But this time, I could tell that my fall was alone. I closed my eyes and screamed my lungs out, but no one could hear me. Then I felt myself falling onto something, which means I probably landed. I opened my eyes and I saw that I landed on a rock. Why couldn't I've landed on some grass over there or something. I felt like I had amnesia for a second. But then, piece by piece, my memory was rebuilt. I remembered everything so clearly. Mimi making her decision, going through the pain, being in that dungeon. The one thing that's happy I could remember is when she kissed me back and mouthed I love you. I felt like I could melt.

I looked around me, it was a forest setting. I was completely deserted. Not even Gabumon was with me. I was beginning to get worried. But I just sat there. I didn't have a clue what else to do. Then, my clue came. I heard someone crying. I began to trace the origin of the cries and I ended up on the side of a stream. Sitting there, crying, was a chestnut haired girl wearing all pink. It was Mimi.

I ran up to her and gave her a hug from behind. Then she shook me off, stood up, and turned to face me. She seemed different, too different. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying and her cheeks were blushing red.

I began to walk towards her slowly. I stretched my hand out so she can take it, but she never did. Then she broke the silence, "Who-who are you?" What does she mean? Doesn't she remember me?

"I'm Matt. Don't you remember me?" I asked, afraid of the answer. She shook her head in response. "What about Tai? Or Sora? Joe? Izzy? T.K.? Kari? Any of them ring a bell?" I asked again.

"No, I don't know any of those people. I'm sorry, I don't know anything right now. Actually, it's more like I don't remember anything. But the last thing I remember is a huge blob like monster coming after me. I ran and ran, but it always seemed to have gotten closer and closer. But then I fell into the water and it never chased after me." she explained.

"That must've been Poismon." I whispered to myself.

"Excuse me?" she asked, puzzled.

"Oh, nothing. Just note to self." I said. What does all this mean? If we just saw Poismon, then does that mean I'm in Mimi's body? But how come she lost her memory? Where is this place anyway? There can't possibly be a forest in Mimi's body, can there?

(AN: This part is dedicated to a fan who's asked me for this.)

I wonder if Mimi's all right now. I better wait and see tomorrow. I still remember how I met her, and how I began to have feelings growing for her. I was still so young...


Flashback*@----}----{----@*
(AN: Contents in this might be messed up, but ignore it. Just try your best to imagine this.)

I was still Metomon(lame name?), my rookie form. I could still see light. I'd have to say I looked like what the humans called a small Golden Retriever. I was small and furry. It was my first time visiting the real world, this mage grant me this wish. I wandered in the streets of the real world for days. I became hungry, ignored, filthy, and everything much worse. Those were the days in hell in my life.

Then one day, I stumbled into Mimi, she was still really young then. Immediately, she crouched down and began patting me. It felt great. At least I knew that someone wasn't heartless in this world. Then she picked me up and held me in her arms. It was the most comfortable place in the world.

We walked for a while and then she brought me back to her castle(AN: Look, it's a mansion, but Metomon or Myotismon has never seen a mansion and he assumes that that is a castle.). There, she washed me up and fed me. I stayed at her house for a few nights. Those times felt like paradise. I knew that her masters (AN: he means parents. He doesn't know what he's talking about.) didn't know that I was there. I knew I had to keep this as a secret or Mimi could be in great danger. That's why I prevented being discovered. No one has ever treated me the way she did or looked at me the way she did. I didn't want to lose all that.

Then, one day, when she was off to that place they call school, they found me. When Mimi got home, her masters scolding at her terribly and she cried. I couldn't stand watching her cry like that. That was when I discovered that I had feelings for her.

Her masters made her go back into her room and stay there. Then, they threw me out the door. I hated them for kicking my off heaven. But most of all, I hated them for making Mimi cry. I really wanted to get revenge for her. But what could I do? I take the form of a small dog! I could feel my eyes burn with the flames of hatred. They became wet and hot tears came out of them. It was my first I cried...

That night, I digivolved into Myotismon, my present form, and I crept into Mimi's house. I wanted to see Mimi first so I crept up to her room. She was sleeping peacefully on her bed. The moon's gentle beams shined on her face. I could still see the tear stains on her face. I stretched out my hand to brush her face. Her eyes shot open.

She sat there staring at me. When I looked at her skinny arms, I could tell that she was shivering. We sat there staring at each other(Well, I stood). I've never seen her like this. She was so pale, especially under the moon. Also, everytime she used to look at me, she'd have this giant smile on her face. But this time, the smile was replaced with a frown. Then, I looked deeper into her eyes. I didn't see love and kindess anymore. Instead, I saw horror. Her mouth hung open, shaking. She was clutching onto her sheets so tigh her knuckles were white. She was sweating way too much.

Then I realized, she was scared of my new form. I looked like this monster that humans used to fear. Vampires, that's it. I didn't blame her. I didn't want to keep her in shock so I left. I sat down in a dark alley with stray cats and dogs fighting for food in the garbage. I sat there holding my knees up to my chest with my head buried in the space between my chest and my knees.

Then I felt tears running down my face. That was the last time I cried. It's funny, isn't it? I've been through so much and I only cried twice in my whole life. And both of them, because of my love for a girl. Right when I decided that it was all her masters' fault that I turned this way, that mage brought me back here. So once again, I was alone without her beautiful smile. I swore that I'll take revenge for turning me like this so Mimi's scared of me.


End Flashback*@----}----{----@*

My wish was taht I could take revenge on the human race accept for Mimi. She'd be ruling beside me. But then I saw her kiss Matt like that. I realize that when I was still Metomon, she cared for me, but she didn't love me. She didn't feel the same way. I thought that I could make her love me if she knew how I felt. But she couldn't see it. She couldn't see past her hatred. So I had to force her to love me by injecting Poismon, but that didn't work either. What else can I do to change her heart? A teardrop fell down my face as I lay asleep in my coffin......


Matt's P.O.V.*@----}----{----@*

Mimi and I spent a lot of time talking. We seemed to be enjoying each other's company, at least I was. I think that she was beginning to trust me. She'd laugh and giggle at my jokes and she'd listen to what I have to say. She seemed like she was back to he old self again. There was no sign of her crying from before. It was good to see her back again.

We were lying on the soft grass staring up at the clouds. We were just through discussing their shapes. We were laughing so hard our sides began to hurt. Our face muscles were sore also. But I can't remember when was the last time I was so happy or I was having so much fun. I wished that that moment would last forever.

We sat up and walked up the stream which lead to a lake. During the walk, Mimi slipped her hand in mine and our fingers knotted. I felt so secure. This time, I'm not gonna let her go.

Right when we were about to wash our faces, we spotted something behind us. Mimi got really scared and hid behind me. Then I saw what it was also. It was a bluish clear blob. It kinda looks like hairgel if you look at it in a certain way.

If Mimi's so scared, then this must be Poismon. Suddenly I felt a rage of anger conquer my body. This was the creature who made Mimi suffer. I must destroy it and take revenge for her. I grabbed a stick and stabbed and hit it as hard as I could. But everytime it seperates, it sticks back together. Then I thought of something, Mimi said that once she jumped into the stream, the creature didn't follow her. That's it! It must be afraid of water. I had just the right plan.

I told Mimi to step aside so she wouldn't get hurt. I promised her that I'd try to be as cautious as I can be. Then, I touched the glob. It's just a little stickier than hairgel. It began to crawl all over me. Right then, I seized the opportunity and jumped into the lake. I could feel Poismon getting slippery and peeling off. Then, I saw it dissolve into the air all together. I looked up at the surface and saw Mimi bent over, crying with her hands over her face.

I swam up to the surface and asked, "What's wrong, Mimi?" Then she looked up. She jumped into the lake and hugged me.

"I........ I thought that the glob hurt you and I'd be all alone again..." she choked out. I put my arms around her and pat her back. She rested her head on my shoulder. Somehow, we floated without meaning to.

Then I pulled her away so I'd be facing her. I stared her in the eye and said it outloud, "I love you, Mimi." Then, I could see sparks dancing in her eyes. It was then that I know she feels the same way. Then, we closed our eyes and gave each other a long kiss.

When we finally broke apart, we felt like we were falling again. But this time I didn't scream, because I know that Mimi'll be waiting safely for me.
