"Miracles' Dark Secret"
Here is the next chapter. Please enjoy and review!
Willis had ordered the pizza and soon enough the man who was driving the truck arrived and Yolei quickly got in since the man was dropping the group off at the Stewarts' summer house along with the pizza.
Davis was leaning against the truck as he waited for the others to get into the pickup while Willis and Dai stood aside with their digimon.
Takuya, Takato, Guilmon, Koji, Ryo, Yolei, Poromon, Cody and Upamon were all in the pickup when the engine was revved.
"Davis, you might want to move." Takato pointed out.
"Why?" he asked the crimson eyed girl.
When he felt the truck moving, he quickly jumped back as he was told as the man drove off, Veemon gaping at the sudden departure while V-Mon groaned in annoyance.
"We'll tell ya how the pizza tastes!" Yolei called as she waved.
Takuya looked over to Koji in disbelief at the fact that the others were just left there.
"Oh, god no. I am not staying here with that twit." She said as she got ready to make a jump for it, but Koji grabbed her and held her on his lap.
Ryo sighed at this, but also had an amused grin.
Being around Yolei was going to drive her insane.
The only reason she hadn't roasted the lavender haired girl was because of the children of Miracles.
Zoe was nowhere near as annoying as Yolei is!
(Back with the three Keepers of the Golden Radiance…)
"That guy is so not getting a tip." Davis glowered.
"Look on the bright side; Yolei is the only one with cash, so she'll be paying for the pizza that Taky , Mono and Guil will inhale." Dai said making him chuckle.
"So now what do we do?" Willis asked.
Just then, the wind picked up making Terriermon and V-Mon tense up as Willis' digivice started to beep as the screen glowed with a red light.
"What is this?" Davis asked as Veemon ran to him.
Just then, Wendigomon appeared from the winds as road signs crumbled in on themselves.
"Kokomon." Willis whispered.
"Veemon, let's go. DIGI ARMOUR ENERGIZE!" Davis called.
"Veemon amour digivolve to…Flamedramon: the Fire of Courage!"
Flamedramon attacked Wendigomon while Willis and Terriermon watched in awe from the evolution, but the beast used his tail to whip the dragon away.
"V, go for it." Dai said.
"V-Mon digivolve to…XV-MON!"
The female dragon flew off over to Wendigomon and blasted him with an orange laser in the shape of a V, hitting him while Flamedramon got back up and joined in with his Fire Rockets.
While this was going on, Davis had grabbed onto Willis' hand and was dragging him off away from the battle while Dai just stood in her place.
Wendigomon blasted these bullets from his chest, the two dragons jumping out of the way, but Flamedramon gasped in shock as he saw Davis and Willis getting knocked off their feet while Dai was blasted by the attack and dust picked up around her.
"Dai!" he yelled.
Hearing her name, Willis picked himself off the ground and looked over in horror.
XV-Mon looked over to where her partner had been and sighed in relief when the dust faded.
"What in the?" Willis asked.
Standing there was Dai unharmed as she had activated her Radiance Mode when her eyes glowed gold and the mark of Miracles was on her forehead.
Around her was a transparent golden orb that had shielded her from the attacks.
"I think…my heart…stopped." Davis panted as his hand was over his chest in relief while Willis slumped forward as he smiled at the girl.
"In time, you'll learn that you don't always need to protect your partner." XV-Mon said as she flew over to Flamedramon.
"That's nice to know." He said.
Wendigomon then attacked them again, but the female dragon grabbed the male dragon and took to the air as he started blasting fireballs down at the beast.
"Hey, you forgot one small detail." Davis said suddenly as he looked over to Willis who was snapped out of staring at the golden angel.
"Huh, what?" the blonde asked.
"WHY IS HE ATTACKING US?!" the mahogany haired boy yelled.
XV-Mon yelled as her left wing got hit by one of Wendigomon's bullets and she started to fall to the ground.
Flamedramon grabbed her into his arms and jumped over to where Dai was standing as he set the female dragon down while Willis, Davis and Terriermon ran over.
"Kokomon, stop!" he yelled as he stood in front of the advancing digimon.
"I'm doing it. I'm going back." Willis tried to reason.
"Go back to the beginning!" Wendigomon growled as he brought his fist down to hit the group, but Terriermon head-butted Willis out of the way while Flamedramon and XV-Mon gathered Davis and Dai in their arms and jumped out of the way.
"Willis, use your digivice!" Davis called over.
The blonde pushed himself up from the ground just as his digivice beeped and glowed green.
"I feel strange." Terriermon said.
He then jumped up into the air and did a backflip before he was covered in green light, Willis staring in awe.
"Terriermon digivolve to…GARGOMON!" he said.
"Huh? He's got pants now." Willis said.
Davis deadpanned at that as he looked over at his female counterpart.
"Seriously? The overgrown bunny has guns for hands and he's concerned about the pants?" he asked.
He then looked over to Dai.
"What do you see in him?" he asked.
She just laughed at him while Willis blushed darkly as he overheard them speaking.
Gargomon blasted at Wendigomon with his lasers as Flamedramon and XV-Mon joined their own attacks and sent the dog-like digimon flying.
Knowing he was defeated, Wendigmon pushed himself up as the winds blew around them all.
"Go back…" he said.
"Kokomon…" Willis whispered.
The best then faded away in the winds leaving the battle so that he could regroup, but he would regret it if he knew what would be awaiting him later on.
When they were sure the battle was done for now, the three Champions returned to their Rookie forms.
"He put up a great fight, but…we won!" Davis said as he struck a pose and showed off his biceps and pouty lips which made Dai, Veemon and V-Mon giggle.
Willis on the other hand didn't feel like joining in as he turned away from them.
"We didn't win anything. He won't stop until he gets what he wants." He said making the group look at him.
"What does he want? Maybe I can help." Davis offered as he ran up to him and placed a hand on the blonde's shoulder.
"Don't ask any more questions! It's for your own good. The less you know the better!" Willis snapped as he shoved the hand off.
"Willis…" Terriermon said softly as he ran over and placed his paw in his partner's.
The human looked down at the smiling digimon.
"We're a team now. It's alright to tell them the truth." he chuckled.
Davis was in awe at the connection between the two while V-Mon smiled lovingly at the bunny who was blushing from the look.
These two may not be the duo of Faith that the duo of Miracles knew, but they were the same as them just from a different dimension.
"Well, the truth is, we don't have a ride." Davis said.
"No problem. I can handle that." Veemon said.
"You mean 'we'." V-Mon said.
Davis and Dai smiled as they held out their D-3s.
"DIGI ARMOUR ENERGIZE!"
"Veemon/V-Mon armour digivolve to…Raidramon/Lightdramon: the Storm of Friendship!"
The two dragons stood there ready to get moving, Lightdramon looking more thin and curvier than Raidramon as the black armour she wore was so dark it had a blue sheen to it.
"Whoo! Someone call for a ride?" Davis asked as he mounted his partner.
"That's cool." Terriermon said.
"Couldn't you have done that before?" Willis asked.
"Don't be such babies." Dai said as she mounted her own partner.
"Yeah, why don't you go ride with Dai?" Davis sneered making Willis blush while Raidramon and Terriermon giggled as Dai shot Davis a look.
Clearing his throat, Willis walked over to the Girl of Miracles and pulled himself up onto the back of the dragon and then hesitantly placed his hands on her waist to hang on.
Dai found this a bit curious.
Her Willis hadn't been a blushing, shy mess at all.
The guy was a total flirt and acted confident when he was around her while she was acting the way how Davis was now.
Was it possible that the way how she acted so confident and sure of herself, while she was also a bit broken was the way to make him realize his feelings for her so soon?
She really shouldn't lead him on.
After all, she was dating her Willis from her dimension and would be living as soon as she and Davis had gathered up enough of their power to send her, the Warriors, Tamers and their digimon back home.
This Willis will need to be told about her and the others.
Soon enough, the two dragons took off to the summer house, Willis clinging to Dai in fear while Terriermon was cheering with Davis as they rode on Raidramon.
"How do ya stop this thing?!" Willis cried.
"Humph. Baby." Lightdramon scoffed.
(With the others…)
"I just don't see what your deal is!" Yolei yelled at Takuya.
The two girls had been arguing since they got to the summer house while the others all ate the pizza as they watched the show, Ryo and Koji placing bets on when the Warrior of Flame lost her patience and finally fried the yapping little wretch.
"My deal is you. You think you're all that when you're not." Takuya shot back.
"I do not." Yolei said.
"Really? Then why do you tear into Davis when he says something stupid or annoys you?" Takuya asked.
"Because he acts like a jerk! The fact that he now has powers will any make his huge ego swell even more." Yolei yelled.
"Davis has lived a hard life. He has parents who could careless for him and a sister he protects from the actual jerks and wretches like you." the Warrior of Flame said.
"You take that back!" the child of Love and Sincerity shrieked.
"Why are you so protective of Davis anyway?" Poromon asked the Tamer of Hazard since she seemed more calm and sane.
Obviously he had never seen her when the power of Hazard had taken over her when she witnessed Beelzemon delete Leomon and she then forced WarGrowlmon to digivolve into Megidramon, a horrible monster filled with rage and his innocence was destroyed.
"Davis has lived the same miserable life as Dai. They are the same person, just with different genders.
Tai lived a great life with a loving family, so did Marcus, Taiki and Tagiru. Takuya has a younger brother she fights with, but will always be there for him just like Dai and Davis are for Jun. and I'm an only child but have parents who love me and tell me this every day. Dai and Davis both never had that." Takato said.
"They both force smiles through everything. All of the jokes you guys make at their expense, they feel pain but mask it." Ryo said.
"Especially when they're called stupid." Monodramon chirped in.
Cody blinked at this.
"I understand that being called stupid can hurt anyone." He said.
"It's worst for Daimon and Davismon." Guilmon said.
Yolei looked over at them as she wondered what they meant by this.
"Does this have anything to do with their grades? They aren't very good." She pointed out.
Takuya snarled as she resisted the urge to Beast Spirit Evolve and Koji had to stand up and pull her into his arms so he also didn't turn into a Beast and cause some mayhem.
"That's not their fault." Ryo said as he grew defensive which surprised Cody and Yolei since the Legendary Tamer was a real laid back person who just went with things.
What could have raised his shackles?
"How's it not their fault?" Upamon asked.
The Tamers and Warriors all stayed quiet as they shared worried looks, unsure if they should reveal something that Dai had never even told her own team with the exception for the children of Faith and Kindness.
Takuya just sighed as she turned in Koji's arms and rubbed her head in his strong chest as he rubbed her back.
They weren't going to be the ones to tell them if they were too stupid to not figure it out all by themselves.
Ryo and Takato then shared a look while Guilmon was pulled away by Monodramon so they would be safe from being dragged into this.
"Dai and Davis are always treated like lost causes by their parents and called stupid and useless because of their grades, but there's a reason for why they can't do their work properly." Ryo said.
What the group didn't know was that the children of Miracles had teleported the rest of the way to the summer house since Willis was far too much of a baby to take the wild ride provided by the Dragons of Friendship.
"Why did Davis and Dai's parents treat them that way?" Cody asked drawing the two mentioned 13 year olds' attentions.
What were they talking about?
The group had yet to notice them while Willis and Terriermon watched them.
How did the twins' parents treat them?
Takato whined a bit as she bit her thumb nail and looked over to her boyfriend for help.
Groaning, he stood up and pecked her lips, then turned to the curious girl, boy and their In-Trainings.
"Dai and Davis have dyslexia and a mild case of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder." Ryo said.
Everyone was silent.
