"Lovers Walk"

Kalonamon was in his room when there was a loud banging noise on his door.

He got up from his bed and walked over to the door, opening it to see his younger brother, BlackGatomon standing there with serious eyes.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"We lost Impmon. It turns out, he was meant to be partnered to a Digidestind." The Champion said, causing Kalonamon to sigh.

"Oh well. There is nothing we can do to change what destiny had planned for them." He said.

"But there is another thing. The one who purified Impmon was the child of Miracles." BlackGatomon said, making Kalonamon gasp and look at him in shock and hope.

"You found them?" he asked.

"Yes. A DemiDevimon followed the child of Courage to and found her. He said that the child of Miracles was to be returning to Odaiba."

The dark angel nodded and then walked out of his room, the Champion following him as they made preparations to head off to the Human World to find the child of Miracles and make her use his powers to bring his lover back to him.

(In Odaiba)

Dai was sitting in the Kamiya's home after the Digidestinds told the parents what happened (the mothers all crying over Dai and smothering her into hugs and she also got grounded by her parents), Ken sitting on her right and Mimi sitting on her left as everyone else sat down in other chairs or on the floor, Tai pacing the floor, deep in thought of their next plan of action.

"So Kalonamon now knows who the child of Miracles is?" asked Yolei.

"Sadly. We weren't able to stop DemiDevimon before he went into the portal." Palmon said sadly with her head bowed.

"Great, now what are we supposed to do?" asked TK.

"We can't fight someone we don't know anything about." Patamon said.

"We'll figure out something. We always do in the end." Ken said, trying o stay positive.

"What I want to know is what Kalonamon will do when he finds out that Dai is Phoenixmon's reincarnation and the child of Miracles? He can't really be fine with killing her now, can he?" Cody asked.

"No, he can't. Kalonamon still loves Phoenixmon, so he won't be able to kill Dai when he finds out." Sora said, confident that she was right.

Tai stopped pacing and looked over to the burgundy haired girl, who was quiet after they had gotten back from New York.

Drake and Impmon had wanted to come, but Dai had told them to stay there with Michael and Betamon and after a while, she was able to convince them to stay behind.

V-Crystalmon had also admitted to meeting a digimon named BlackGatomon, who Impmon said was the younger brother of Kalonamon, which made the white dragon shake in rage from the betrayal and heartbreak the black cat had caused her.

"We better think of something soon, because Kalonamon could show up at any given time. I think it would be the time to try what Dai thought of before." Izzy said.

"You mean turn our digimon into crystal digimon?" Kari asked.

"But the consequences are high." Joe said.

"We have no other choice." Tai said.

"But who will go first?" Yolei asked.

"I'll do it." Ken said.

Everyone looked at him and Dai looked into is eyes, seeing how serious he was, so she nodded.

"All right, let's make a miracle happen." She said.

The crystal began to glow as they held hands and she focussed on transferring some of the power to her DNA partner.

They both glowed gold and Ken gasped as he felt the pure energy fill him and it also spread to Wormmon, transforming him.

The light stopped and everyone turned to see that the caterpillar digimon had become a new crystal digimon.

He was now a lighter shade of green and had the purple marks on his body shimmering with amethyst gem stones and he had a gold collar like V-Crystalmon's around his neck.

"Well, how do I look?" he asked.

"You look pretty good, WormCrystalmon." V-Crystalmon said.

Ken looked at himself and sighed in relief when he saw that he was still the same, only now he felt a little stronger than before.

"Looks like we had nothing to worry about." Tai said with a smile as he saw that the child of Kindness was still the same, only he looked more mature.

"Wow…what a rush." Ken sighed with a small chuckle.

"Now you know how I felt." Dai said with a giggle and then blushed at the sound.

Tai was amused by how easily she blushed and how cute she looked when she did so.

"So I guess it's safe for Dai to use the power on all of us now." Yolei said with a bright smile.

"Hold it. The power comes from Dai herself; the crystal only helps magnify it. If she used her power too much in one day, she could hurt herself." Izzy said.

"So we'll have to take it a few days at a time. See what happens after that." Matt said.

(A Week Later)

The Digidestinds were training with their digimon when they picked up a signature of a portal opening.

Gatomon had been transformed into GatoCrystalmon, a white cat with shimmering amethyst gem stones on the purple marks she had and her tail ring transferred to her neck, looking more polished than before, her claws on her gloves made out of onyx gem stones.

Agumon had also become AguCrystalmon, an orange dinosaur with claws made out of quarts, dark orange stripes shimmering carnelian and had a gold collar on is neck.

Gabumon was turned into GabuCrystalmon, his horn made out of topaz, the marks on his stomach shimmered with amethyst and sapphire, his claws made out of amethyst too and he had a gold collar.

Finally, Hawkmon was turned into a female digimon called HawkCrystalmon, and she had the tips of her feathers shimmering onyx, had the gold collar and had the mark on her forehead shimmering topaz.

The Chosen Cildren all ran together to where the portal was opening and they were all shocked to see a group of Bakemon, Gazimon, Goblinmon and Phantomon were all there and leading them were a handsome fallen angel and a black cat.

Kalonamon and BlackGatomon.

Kalonamon looked at the group of humans, his eyes darting to Dai, who e noticed was staring at him in awe and he felt a rush of pride and warmth in his chest at the look.

BlackGatomon looked at V-Crystalmon and offered her a weak smile, knowing that she was furious with him for deceiving her, her red eyes glowing with an inner flame that made his heart constrict in his chest.

DemiDevimon flew down to his master's head.

"Which one is it?" Kalonamon asked him, Dai trying to stop herself from shivering at the sound of his voice.

"That one, right there, Lord Kalonamon." DemiDevimon said pointing a clawed toe over in Dai's direction, making the brothers look at her in shock.

Kalonamon looked at the girl in disbelief.

How could that be?

The girl who may just be his mate's reincarnation was also the child of Miracles?

She had been right under is nose this entire time, the one he had been fantasising of.

He smiled warmly at her, a loving gleam in his onyx eyes that made her entire body shiver in anticipation.

Tai stepped in front of Dai, not liking the way the dark angel had been looking at her.

Kalonamon glared at him, not at all enthused about how this human male was trying to keep her away from him.

"Um, hello again, V-Crystalmon." BlackGatomon greeted.

"Oh, you might wanna run." HawkCrystalmon said in her English accent.

"Is that all you can say? You were using me this entire time to get to Dai!" V-Crystalmon yelled, angered at him.

"That isn't true!" BlackGatomon said.

"I won't listen to your lies anymore. We end tis now."

She then digivolved to XV-Crystalmon, all the other crystal digimon following her example.

BlackGatomon looked at her with pained eyes, but he then digivolved into his Ultimate form, an angel that looked similar to Kalonamon, only he had white hair, gold eyes, had a long black trench coat that hugged his muscular body and had two black wings.

"BlackGatomon digivolve too….Zanemon."

Zanemon gave the female digimon a sad look as she attacked him, the two fighting each other as the other evil digimon got into a battle with the good digimon.

Kalonamon had his eyes set on Dai and flew over to her, trying to reach out to her, but Tai got in the way, shielding her from him and Kalonamon got angered and ripped the boy away from the girl, his hand on the child of Courage's neck.

"Tai!" Kari cried out in worry, TK holding her back from running over to her brother to help him.

"You shouldn't get in the way." Kalonamon said to the boy he was choking.

Tai gripped his hand, trying to get him to let go, his hazel eyes flashing in pain and anger at the angel, clearing telling him he wasn't letting him get to Dai.

"You are beginning to annoy me, child of Courage." Kalonamon growled out.

"I'll…nev-never let you…have…her." Tai said.

Kalonamon's eyes flashed dangerously and he then raised his other hand, about to strike him.

"NO!" a panicked voice yelled.

He then felt a soft, warm body grab onto his arm and he looked back to see that Dai had flung herself at him, grabbing his arm, staring up at him with those gold tinted brown eyes, begging not to hurt anyone.

"Let him go, please." She said, close to crying.

Kalonamon felt his heart was being clenched by a hand that had shot through his chest as he saw the girl was trying not to cry.

He looked back at Tai and slowly let him go, the brunette coughing as he tried to get the air back into his lungs.

"Dai, get away from him!" Ken yelled to her.

"No, Ken." She said.

His eyes widened as he looked at her, knowing exactly what she was going to do.

"Don't." he said.

Dai ignored him and pulled away from Kalonamon, looking him in the eyes.

"Take me." She said.

He took a step back in shock.

"What did you say?" he asked, wanting her to repeat it, hoping he wasn't imagining things.

"Take me. Just don't hurt anyone. I'll go with you if you fall back and take all of you minions with you and free them. Please." She begged.

Kalonamon smiled softly at how she was willing to sacrifice herself to save the lives of others, just like she would have done in her past life.

He lifted his hand up and lightly brushed her smooth cheek, admiring the freckles that decorated them that Phoenixmon didn't have.

"Very well." He raised his arm and the evil digimon ceased their fighting and their minds cleared.

They looked around them, puzzled as to how they got there and turned to see the child of Miracles in the arms of the Mega.

"Dai, don't do it!" Matt yelled.

"Please, don't!" Kari yelled.

"Stay here!" TK yelled.

"Dai, you can't go with him!" Tai yelled.

Dai ignored them and turned to look at XV-Crystalmon, who and stopped her fight with Zanemon, who was holding her to his chest, trapping her.

The Champion nodded her head and relaxed in his hold and he smiled sadly down at her, an apology in his eyes and she saw that he was truly sincere.

Dai looked up at Kalonamon and held her hand out to him.

"I'm ready." She said.

Her friends all yelled in protest, but she didn't listen as she was then carefully swept up into his strong arms, her face flushing at how gentle he was being with her and looked considerate.

"Let's go, Zanemon." Kalonamon called to his brother.

The white haired angel nodded and they both took to the skies, flying up to the portal, CrystalAngewomon, CrystalAquilamon and StingCrystalmon trying to stop them, but they were just knocked back by a barrier as they made their escape to the Digital World, the portal closing behind them.

The Digidestinds all stared up at the sky, in disbelief that they had just let their friend and Leader get taken away from them so easily.

A few moments of silence passed before Kari and Mimi both broke down crying, Ken clenched his fists tightly as he ground his teeth together as tears also fell from his eyes and Tai punched a wall out of anger and heartbreak.

"DAISUKE!" he yelled into the sky before he too started crying.
