Why Me?: Chapter 14
celestial writer: Yea, and I can tell you, this chapther does not help lol. They actually do come up with a plan, but it doesn't come in for this chapter. Mostly because I don't know the plan yet. ^^' And yes, it was quite disturbing. I couldn't believe I wrote it.
Ryuu-Xana: awe! You're making me blush! But thanks, I really appreciate it!
I should probably add the votes from my poll in my profile onto this too.
Stats~
Kouichi - 7
Kouji - 4
Takuya - 5
Takuya: How come Kouichi is getting all the votes?
Kouji: I don't know. How come you're in second is what I don't understand.
Takuya: I know! I should be where Kouichi is! Well, you're twins aren't you? You're supposed to know everything about eachother!
Kouji: I'm not psychic Dumbass! And no, you shouldn't be where Kouichi is!
(Somewhere far off.)Kouichi: Well, I am.
People around Kouichi: Who are you talking to?
(back)
-Kouji and Takuya start arguing over stupid matters.-
Kia: Anyways, since Takuya and Kouji are out to incapacitate each other, I need to find someone to do the disclaimer.
Kari: I'll do it.
Kia: Oh Thanks Kari!
Kari: No problem.
Kia: Kouji! I found a replacement for you!
Kouji: An 8 year old girl?
Kia: And her name begins with K, and ends in I!
Kouji: -Grumble-
Kari: Kia doesn't own digimon!
I sighed. It would soon be time to fire up that plan of Zoe's, all I had to do was decide whether to employ the technique on Takuya or Kouji.
'Takuya is more of a hot head, and probably wouldn't understand. Kouji on the other hand would be perfect.' I sighed again.
Tommy tripped on a vine that was littered with thorns, falling to the ground and letting out a small yelp. I helped him up and saw that the vine was snaking up his leg.
"Gyah! Pervert vine!" I yelled. Tommy's leg was bleeding now and the sight of it was making me nauseated, like I always feel when I see horrendous amounts of blood.
'Then again, my idea of "A horrendous amount of blood" Is only a drop or two.'
The blood was leaking down his leg, onto the clingy thorned vine. I whipped out my pocket knife as Zoe let out a petrifying squeal, and trying to shake off the vine snaking it's way up her legs.
I cut Tommy free and he quickly changed into Kumamon, blasting ice at the vines that were creeping over to ensnare the rest of us. I stomped on one, and the vine quickly turned my attempt into a fail of epic proportions. I felt a tug on my ankles as the vines pulled me off my feet and hung me upside down, the only thing keeping my shirt from falling was my dress(1). I wasn't really worried about my jeans showing anything.
I swung around with the knife, hoping to hit the vine that was grasping my ankles. I closed my eyes as the nausea of being upside down set in, swirling my vision.
"Ow! Watch where you're waving that thing!" Kouji yelled. I heard yelps and squeals as I continued flailing around.
"Crystal Freeze!" Kumamon yelled. I felt a cold sensation on my hand with the knife and promptly dropped it. My hand was numb and frozen in a block of ice within seconds.
"Gyah!!" I yelled out of shock. The vines all around me were frozen, but so was I. "Slight problem." I said quietly. Takuya and Kouji had both spirit evolved, and Zoe and JP were in the process of doing such.
There was a loud crack, and everyone looked up to see the vine that had a hold on me was breaking the ice. Kouji, Takuya, Zoe and JP quickly spirit evolved, leaving me hanging, upside down. I was left yet again completely, and utterly useless.
'God, am I ever going to get a spirit? I mean, I have a D-tector too!' I thought-screamed.
"Tempest Twist!" Kazemon yelled.
"Pyro Punch!" Agunimon yelled.
"Lobo Kendo!" Lobomon attacked.
"Blizzard Blaster!" Kumamon shouted.
"Thunder Fist!" Beetlemon yelled. Their attacks came at the vines all at once. The vine dodged the various attempts at damage, but I was swung around and nearly hit by several.
"Can you guys please not hit me?" I called, extremely afraid of being hit with their attacks. I wasn't sure if I would be able to manage through one of them, let alone five.
"We're trying not to!" Kazemon called back. If I had to pick one that I would be most afraid of, it would probably be Agunimon's or Beetlemon's attacks. Even if I usually prefer being way overheated to being even slightly cold, I couldn't stand the thought of burning or being on fire. I maybe a bit of a pyro myself, but that's not what I would call 'Favourable Conditions'.
Not like being electrocuted would be the best thing ever either. I have been shocked before, to the point where I had a small burn where I had shocked myself. Stick my finger into a lightbulb socket while it was still plugged in was not smart.
I was jerked for a second and I felt the vine around my ankles twitching. The shocks travelled through my ankles and throughout my whole body as I writhed and screamed. Beetlemon had hit the vine, and the shock had made it's way to me as well. I felt the cold impact of the ground as Lobomon cut through the twitching vine.
I twitched on the ground, and I heard the digitalized voices of the whole gang. I twitched continually, and I could see flashes of light behind closed eyelids every time I twitched.
I was in pain. Worse than I had ever been in before, this pain renewed itself with every twitch. The white-hot surges of electricity pounding through my body, it was almost as if every shock brought me back to conciousness as I fell into complete blackness.
I curled into a ball, a twitchy ball of utter pain, as I fought to stay awake. I couldn't give in. If I gave in and went to sleep, I couldn't tell if I would ever wake up again.
My breathing became erratic as the shockwaves hit my heart. The beating of my heart was going extremely fast one moment, then incredibly slow the next.
My eyes remained closed, and even though my head was on the same ground as the rest of me, it still felt as if my head was spinning in circles without my body.
I had taken to gasping for air when the electricity flooded through me. The breath I received felt jagged, as if it was lined with steel saws. My breaths became more and more strained, as I fought to gain breath between the jolts of electricity.
"She's not breathing!" Zoe screamed. I tried repetitively to get air into my lungs, but I couldn't lift my chest enough to get any air. I couldn't feel my fingers anymore, I could barely twitch anymore.
"Move it!" I heard someone yell. The voices were fading and mixing. I could hardly feel someone put their hand under my neck, a hand on my chest.
"Her heart's still beating!" Another voice.
A hand went to my face, sweeping the hair out of the way. The hand was then plugging my nose, and I felt something warm over my mouth. The numb feeling had spread across my hands, all the way to my elbows.
Air was being blown into my lungs. The warmth against my lips was taken away for a second, and my nose unplugged. Once I felt thoroughly deflated, the warmth came back and my nose was plugged, it continued like this for a while.
The voices were becoming clearer, with every breath I was given. My breath sputtered as I blew it out, rough against my thought.
I gasped and took in my first breath. It felt as if the air had metal claws and was trying to cut out my throat from the inside. I fought to breathe again.
I felt the hand on my chin, running along my jawline, stroking my bottom lip, cupping my face. I leaned into the hand as it stroked my face. I started shaking all over.
I still hurt a lot, but I wasn't twitching anymore, my hands weren't numb anymore, and I could breathe on my own again. I curled up on my side, trying to find some warmth.
I opened my eyes to see a swirlwind of colors, zooming in and out of focus. Kouji was sitting next to my head, his hands under my neck and on my face. He looked serious and stressed.
Zoe was sitting next to one of my shoulders, holding my hand in both of hers. She looked extremely relieved. Takuya was sitting at my other shoulder, holding my other hand and shaking.
Were they all so upset over me? I saw the stressed look on Kouji's face, Takuya looking away and shaking, and Zoe hiding her eyes. I couldn't begin to imagine how terrified they must have been.
Tommy wasn't anywhere that I could see, and I wondered how he was taking it. He was pretty young too, and I had no idea how bad it must have looked to everyone else.
I heard a couple sobs, and I looked at Zoe to see her crying. I felt bad for her, I felt bad for all of them. I know what it's like to watch someone die in front of you.
JP was staring at whole scene, looking completely horrified.
