The Thing About Wishes
Summary: After yet again being rejected by Hikari, one lonely single Daisuke wished he could be loved in return. Sora, feeling a bit sorry for the goggleheaded boy, decided to take matters into her own hands. Too bad because the thing about wishes was, wishes can ALWAYS backfire.

Morning came in the Digital world, and light brown eyes opened a little as the light was streaming from the window, blinding him temporarily. Daisuke groaned a little, feeling slight numb all over his body as he was trying to get up...but he felt so much weight on him, and he realized in that moment why he couldn't move. His right eye twitching, he looked over to his left to see Takeru curled up and head resting on his arm, and Taichi next to him sleeping with head on Daisuke's stomach. The same was for Wallace and Yamato on the right. And Koushiro...well, was sleeping in between Daisuke's legs and laying his head on Daisuke's stomach too.
'Well, this is some way to wake up...but my body feels like it's becoming a rock being laid on like this,' He thought and was trying to wiggle his way out, but then felt someone lifting their head up and blinked as he saw Koushiro was sitting up tiredly on his knees and smiling sleepily at Daisuke.
"Morning Daisuke-kun,"
"Ah, m-morning," Daisuke murmured as the red head chuckled.
"Well the others seem to be comfortable, but not you?" Koushiro teased as Daisuke huffed and pouted.
"You mind helping me up?"
"That'll be hard, considering Taichi is a heavy sleeper," Koushiro pointed out as Daisuke whined again, "But perhaps if I can wake the others, they might be able to help,"
"That'll be great, thanks!" Daisuke smiled brightly as Koushiro blinked.
'...Odd, I thought that I wouldn't be flustered anymore since I'm not that much infected..hmmm, perhaps I do have a small little feelings for Daisuke for real, just not as strong as before. I should look into it when I have the time,' Koushiro concluded in his mind but smiled as he then was waking Yamato first.
The blond rockstar growled a little at being woken up, and glared at Koushiro for moment, but soften as he saw Daisuke was awake, "Hey..."
"Morning Yamato," Daisuke smiled a little as he then was shyly touching at the blond's hair, and was surprised that the older Crest of Friendship leaned into the touch, relaxing.
'Yup, he definitely has the charm,' Koushiro thought then poked at Yamato, "We need to wake up the others, Daisuke is feeling numb from all of us sleeping on him,"
Yamato raised a brow and nodded, and soon was easily poking at Takeru's forehead, making him fall over the bed with a yelp, then easily kicked Wallace off with his feet.
"Hey! Y-You didn't need to do that!" Koushiro scolded as Daisuke laughed.
Takeru groaned as he then was sitting up from the floor, holding his head and then frowned deeply, "Onii-san you're so mean," He murmured as Wallace was whining sleepily with his butt up in the air and snoring away again.
"Daisuke wanted you off of him so I obliged," Yamato smirked as Takeru rolled his eyes.
"Now for Taichi..." Koushiro heard Daisuke yelp and since everyone was off of him, Daisuke was soon engulfed with Taichi curling over him, arms wrapped around the younger's middle and snuggled into him, "...Okay now this is a problem,"
"He thinks Daisuke is a plushie," Yamato murmured then looked like he had an idea and smirked, "Daisuke, do you trust me?"
Daisuke looked at the older Crest of Friendship in suspicion, "...I'm not sure how to answer that..."
Yamato grinned and walked out of the bedroom for a moment, then was coming back with something a minute later behind his back, "I'm sorry Daisuke, but this is the only way,"
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Ryo's eyes widened as he looked up and then was jumping into action after hearing that scream. He quickly reached for the door that was where the boys were and opened it, then blinked at the sight before him. Laying soaking wet on the bed, was a miffed Daisuke and a very confused half sleepy Taichi. Yamato was holding an empty bucket grinning like a mad man as Koushiro looked shocked, and Takeru laughing and...Wallace still unconscious on the floor.
Ryo placed two and two together and then sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose, "Ugh, you guys are so troublesome,"
"Ryo-san," Koushiro was the first too snap out of it and walked over, "W-what are you doing here?"
"Gennai called me, and he told me you guys were here," Ryo hummed then tilted his head, "He told me everything that happened...and well," He glanced at Taichi, "How's he feeling?" He whispered to the red head.
"Better, but we do need some more explanations...starting with this," Koushiro pulled up his pajama bottoms to reveal the symbol of Knowledge on his left knee, and frowned "I know you know about this,"
"..." Ryo sighed and rubbed the back of his head, "Alright, we'll explain once we head for breakfast. Osamu made the meanest pancakes," He then turned around and walked out of the room.
After Daisuke and Taichi (who was now fully awake along with Wallace) were dried and dressed with the rest of the boys, they all sat down with the other boys, Gennai and Benjamin at the breakfast table.
"So, start talking," Taichi murmured as he chewed on a bacon, "We want to know everything,"
Ryo sighed as he then breathed out, "A long time ago, right before you and the other Digidestined in your group were sucked in...there was myself, Osamu, Hikaru, Masuken, Teru, Wallace, Alice and...Taichi," He paused as he saw how Taichi was almost snapping his bacon in two and breathed out, "It wasn't always us together. Taichi was a loner, until he found us five...Alice came on a little later along with Wallace, who was the eighth and last one of us. Afterwards we were told we were destined to save the world by Gennai...the Digi-world that is,"
"What does that have to do with me though?" Taichi spoke up as Ryo raised a hand.
"There was some...complications," Ryo hummed as he was looking down, "The Taichi we knew wanted to face Lucemon alone, since Lucemon only demanded Taichi and Taichi alone or else the Digital world AND our world will perish. What we didn't realize that...Taichi...he..."
"I can't take hearing this," Osamu was shaking his head and standing up, then walking out of the room. Teru seemed to be the same as he also left the room after him.
"What happened?" Daisuke spoke up shakily, fearing the worse.
"Apparently, Lucemon found...Taichi fascinating. Wanted to claim him as his own so..." Ryo placed it at that, and everyone in the room except Gennai, the original original Digidestined and Benjamin, looked horrified.
"Y-You mean..." Takeru trailed off as he looked right about sick and...Taichi just went sick all over the side of the floor.
"Senpai," Daisuke looked over the older male quickly with wide eyes and rushed over to comfort and clean him up.
"Yes. I dunno much of the details, but we had inside word from Lucemon's Empire that Taichi was declared deleted weeks after. W-we were trying to rescue him and he was trying to escape but..."
"And so the sick fuck made a copy of Taichi since the real one was obsolete," Masuken said darkly as Hikaru nudged him, "What?! It's true isn't it? He just about broke Taichi and since ours died, he created another one for his sick games,"
"But that clone vanished when we stormed Lucemon's place and somewhat took him down," Ryo spoke up and then hummed, "We took that chance to actually lock Lucemon and his army up for good as Azulongmon arrived. Unfortunately...we couldn't find Taichi...until somewhat years later there was news of him coming to the Digital World,"
"Y-You said that the old Taichi had a digimon that wasn't Agumon...whatever happened to him?" Koushiro asked as Ryo looked away wincing.
"Somethings...are better left unsaid,"
"...Oh," Koushiro looked down and then breathed out, "I'm so sorry,"
Taichi took this time to recooperate and then coughed, "So then...what now? Lucemon's back because he can smell Daisuke?"
"Yes. And it doesn't help that Daisuke looks like a mini you, Taichi," Ryo murmured, "Plus with the Crest of Miracles. It's powerful, and Lucemon loves power. He'll want Daisuke forever,"
"So what do we do?" Yamato demanded, "We're not just gonna sit here and let Lucemon rise and get Daisuke,"
"And what about the markings?" Koushiro asked once again, "Why are they on our bodies now? Why could we use our Digimons attacks?"
"It's because of a prophecy that was supposed to come true years ago but didn't...and now time is trying to repeat itself so that it could come to pass," Ryo then was removing his shirt and then turned around to reveal the crest of reliability on his right shoulderblade, "I had this mark too, just like you guys I had the powers of my Cyberdramon. I didn't realize it then, but I was chosen to be a Digimon Knight...just as you guys are going to be,"
"D-digimon Knight? What's that?" Takeru asked.
"It was a title to protect a certain chosen Digidestined. That was supposed to be the beacon of the Digital world," Ryo looked at Daisuke and eyes soften, "The one that holds Miracle..."
"W-wait! Are you saying that I'm...?" Daisuke pointed to himself as Koushiro's mind clicked.
"...The potion wasn't an accident was it?" Koushiro murmured as Ryo looked sheepish.
"Ah, no no, I actually did tell Sora to guard it. But I knew that she couldn't resist matchmaking but she should've done it when we were for SURE knowing that Lucemon couldn't smell the Miracle child out and his minions finding out about all this," Ryo then turned serious, "At any rate, what happened happened. I assume that the marks were made on your because you're the next Knights to protect Daisuke. Your partners' powers are there because the Digimon Sovereigns allowed you to have them to better protect him,"
Taichi's breathing hitched as Yamato then asked, "So...what know? Do we prepare for a fight?"
"Not yet," Masuken was the one that spoke up this time, fixing his glasses, "We still need to gather up more info on what Lucemon's plans are. We have our own spies among his army to check up and report back to us...at any case, we are trying to figure out more of what is our solid gameplan,"
"For now, we bring you guys back home and close all Digi-ports," Ryo looked at Koushiro pointedly, "In hopes that no more of Lucemon's croonies can come into the real world. Until we figure out what's the next move, you are not to contact here until we call you first. We don't want to somehow the enemy find at least a leak into the other side...that would also mean you can't call your Digimons out,"
Taichi, Koushiro and Yamato looked crestfallen about this, since their own Digimons were mostly here in this world, as Takeru and Daisuke were the lucky ones to have their Digimons at home.
"You've been too quiet Wallace," Hikaru pointed out with folded arms, "What's on your mind?"
"..." Wallace stood up and then breathed out, "I can't believe you guys didn't tell me about Daisuke and all this,"
"We knew you'd act like this because you're in love with the boy," Masuken sighed, pushing his glasses up, "We knew you'd go charging to Lucemon and his mons on your own and get yourself bloody killed,"
Daisuke froze at this as Wallace gritted his teeth, looking away.
"Now, let's get going," Ryo was getting up and soon everyone was moving...except for Daisuke and Wallace.
The American blond sat there, clutching his fists together and staring down at the floor hard, as Daisuke looked at him with worry in his eyes.
'Wallace...'
And that's a wrap people. So awkwardness is going to be seen once everyone gets back in the real world. And they can't go to the Digital World anymore? *gasp* What ever shall they do? What's going to happen next? So many questions, so little time. Find out next time on Digimon! Digital Monster...haha just kidding, though reviews would be nice :D Thanks again for reading and see you in the next chapter~
