I do not own Digimon.
Digimon Union
As soon as they return to Myotismon's castle, everyone immediately got attacked by a hoard of Dokugumon. Not knowing how to make their partners Digivolved, the Warriors work on getting the gate open by placing the 10 key cards. But just when Takuya's about to place the last 2, he was captured by a Dokugumon that's trying to eat him if it wasn't for Flamon Digivolving into BurningGreymon to save him. The other Rookie Warriors also turn into their Beast Forms, giving the 6 humans enough time to place the remaining cards. But the Earth card got loose and Daisuke manage to grab it, revealing he also has a connection with the Earth Warrior! The last card's place, the gate's open, and everyone finds themselves at the same place where the original 7 Destined first started their adventures!
Chapter 20: Returning Home, but...
"I can't believe we've ended up back at where we started our adventure all those years ago," Yamato said, looking around the place.
"It does make sense we would ended up here since it's the same place where we ended up last time we used the same gate," said Koushiro, looking at his laptop, "Not to mentioned, it's been only a few hours since all of us went to take the Trailmon to the Digital World."
"Anyway," started Takato, getting everyone's attention, "now that we're back in the Human World, how are we going to find Myotismon and the remaining 4 Warriors since we have no idea where they could be located."
"You have a good point," stated Bokomon, "but don't you realize that 4 of the already with us Warriors have a connection with the 4 we're looking for? Not to mention, Daisuke has a connection to the same Warrior as Takuya."
"I still can't believe Daisuke can be good for anything other than being clumsy and an idiot all the time," Miyako said, earning a slap from both Mimi and Sora right at the face.
"What was that for?!" said Miyako, holding onto her redden cheeks.
"More than you think you know," stated Mimi with a glare.
"I still can't believe after ALL this time, you STILL judge Daisuke by what you've heard and known about him yourself without getting to know him better." Sora threatened Miyako, "You don't even know WHAT Daisuke's been through since we thought you, Takeru and Hikari should be avoided from us as a punishment for backstabbing him, but it looks like it didn't work for you."
"Alright, that's enough girls," Daisuke jumps in front of Miyako, protecting her from the 2 older girls, "Miyako gets the idea, and I don't blame her since my former parents did try to make sure everyone they met thinks I'm a clumsy idiot." He looks back at Miyako and said, "So I'm not that surprise Miyako would be one of them since they probably see her and her family the most at the convenience store her family works in."
Miyako just stare at Daisuke in shock before noticing him offering a hand to her. She hesitates at first, but takes the hand and let Daisuke help her to get back on her feet.
"I don't understand," Miyako said, "why are you being nice after everything I said and done to you?"
Daisuke just smiles at her and said, "Because I'm someone that doesn't like to hold a grudge for so long, plus I already forgive you since the day I started taking the first step towards a better life."
Miyako looks at him in shock a bit before smiling back. The other Destined and remaining Heroes look at this and are now glad Daisuke and Miyako are now amended with one another.
But then, Daisuke starts to tense up a bit before he's about to collapse to the ground, if Miyako wasn't right in front of him to catch him.
"Daisuke!" Takuya quickly runs up to the burgundy boy and notice he's in a seizure. "Oh no, not now!"
"What? What's wrong with him?" asked Miyako, staring at the Warrior in a mix of panic and confusion.
Takuya ignores the question and grabs Daisuke's right hand with his own, making the Flame and Miracles symbol glow brightly, but it doesn't seem to be working!
"Taichi! Takato! Taiki! Tagiru!" Takuya frantically call the other Heroes. "I need some help here!"
The 4 in question quickly kneel near Daisuke and grabs the hand Takuya's still holding onto with their own right hand, causing the other symbols to glow as well. It seems to cause the seizure to settle down a bit and Daisuke managed to wake up a bit later.
"Are you alright?" Tagiru asked as Taichi and Takuya try to reassure Daisuke.
"I… think so," Daisuke tries to get up, but stumble a bit on his feet.
"What was that about?" asked Patamon.
"Is it getting worse?" asked Joe.
"Slightly," Daisuke weakly replied, clutching his head a bit.
"Nii-san, what's wrong with Daisuke?" Hikari asked, making Taichi sigh a bit.
"This is something normal that the other Heroes and I have to deal with Daisuke because of his condition." Taichi replied, making some of the others look confused.
"Condition?" asked Nene.
Taichi nodded his head solely, looking down a bit in sadness before turning to Daisuke. The burgundy boy nodded his head, signaling it's time to tell the others.
"I've been suffering since I was 5 years old with brain cancer," everyone except the ones that already knows about it froze and looked horrified.
"Brain cancer?!" gasps Takeru, earning a nod from Daisuke.
"Daisuke, is that why you look like you're about to collapse back when you're about to place the final key card?" Daisuke nodded at Takuya's question before the Warrior continues, "Why didn't you tell us that sooner?!"
Daisuke flinch a bit at the tone Takuya used and said, "I just don't want to be a burden…"
"You're never a burden!" snaps Tagiru. "You're just very sick and we did promise to watch over you very carefully until you get better remember?"
There's a moment of silence before Taiki place a hand on Daisuke's shoulder saying, "Daisuke, these seizures are getting worse, and without Marcus, we can't do a full force support to help you overcome it easier like last time." The former General notice Daisuke sulking a bit before he continues, "I know you feel like you're letting us down, but you're not."
Takato nodded in agreement and said, "We're just worried about you and we don't want to lose you, not after you've made it this far."
Daisuke seem to have relaxed a bit as the other 5 Heroes let go of Daisuke's hand, but still keep within touching distance.
"So," started Zenjirou after a moment of silence, "does anyone know what our next plan should be?"
"Hmm…" Taiki's in deep thought until light flicker from his goggles, indicating he's got an idea. "How about we meet up with each other at Odaiba? I mean, that's where most of us live after all."
"Good idea," said Ryo, "and besides, Odaiba's one of the only places where the Digimons don't have to hide from anyone."
"Not to mention it's also where Myotismon's old hideout was located," stated Gatomon.
"Alright then, it's settled," Taichi said, getting up, "We'll meet up with each other tomorrow at Odaiba."
Everyone agrees with the plan and splits up to return home; all of the Xros Heart United team except Zenjirou and Akari to Tokyo (In the show, it mentioned the General adventure takes place in Tokyo, and so is the Hunters season), the Destined minus Ken, and Takuya to Odaiba (Takuya's family are staying over with Daisuke's), Ken, Koji and Koichi to Tamachi (the twins are staying together with their mom, who lives near Ken's place), the Tamers and JP to Shinjuku (JP lives there with the Tamers since he and Kenta were classmates), and Zoe, Tommy, Zenjirou and Akari towards Shibuya (Zoe and Tommy are the only Warriors to live near the station where the Warriors adventure takes place while Akari and Zenjirou live there for this story).
/ (With Ken and the twins,)
On the train to Tamachi, Ken keeps looking at both Koji and Koichi's partners, unable to believe the Legendary Warriors are no longer spirits, but actual living Digimon again. But he can tell that the news of Daisuke's condition really shaken both Koji and Koichi up a bit.
"Hey, are both of you alright?" Ken asked, placing a hand onto Koji's shoulder.
The Light Warrior sighs a bit before looking at Ken saying, "It's a lot to take in on what we've known earlier."
"Yeah, we're already having a hard time accepting that our Spirits are now physically here with us," Koichi said, "but knowing about Daisuke's health is probably the hardest one to digest."
"Trust me it was hard on me as well when I first found out about Daisuke having brain cancer." Ken admitted, still remembering the day Daisuke found out about his condition like it's only yesterday.
The train stops at the last station before reaching Tamachi and some of the passengers either get off or enters the train. One of the passengers that got on the train is a girl carrying a box fill with stuff that suddenly trips and fall right onto the floor.
Koichi, being the closest to the girl, got up from his seat and helps her place the stuff back into the box.
"Oh, thank you so much," she said as all of her stuff's now back inside the box, "I really appreciate your help-wait, Koichi?"
Koichi's thrown back a bit that the girl knew him. He looks at the girl and gasps when he got a good look at her.
The girl's around the same age as Koichi himself with long dark blue hair, light red eyes that looks almost magenta in color and has a pale skin. She's wearing a pair of blue jeans with a white t-shirt that has wave designs on it in navy blue. But one look at the aqua blue scarf tied around her neck is what makes the girl familiar to Koichi.
"Tanya? Is that really you?" Koichi asked as both of them get back on their feet.
"Yeah, it's me." The girl now identified as Tanya replied, looking at Koichi before embracing him in a hug. "I haven't seen you since forever Koichi!"
"It's only been 8 years," chuckled Koichi, returning the embrace, "But I guess you would feel like that since I'm your very first friend you ever have despite we've been keeping contact with one another."
"And still is my best friend," Tanya lets go and notice the 2 boys looking at them, with one of them looking a lot like Koichi.
Koichi must have notice this and walks up to Ken and Koji, picking up Necromon that's still at the same place he left the In-Training. "Guys, this is Tanya Flannigan. She's my childhood best friend despite the fact we've only been together since we were 5."
"Nice to meet ya," Tanya greeted, sitting at the seat Koichi was sitting on since he insisted she takes his place. "So I'm guessing you're Koji right? Koichi's twin brother?"
"Yeah," replied Koji, slightly shocked that she knows that, "How did you-?"
"I told her about what our grandmother told me and my plan to try and find you alone." Koichi explains, "She wanted to come over and help me, but I don't want to disturb her too much since she lives in Osaka."
"You mean, used to live in Osaka." Tanya corrected him, "My dad got a job transfer and we're moving to Tamachi today!"
"So that explains why you're carrying that box," realize Ken, getting Tanya's attention.
"I'm sorry, but I don't think I caught your name." Tanya said.
"Oh right, my name's Ken Ichijouji." Ken introduced himself, "Nice to meet you."
"Likewise," Tanya nodded before noticing the 3 Digimons in the boy's arms, "So what's the deal with the stuff toys anyway?"
Both Koji and Koichi tensed up a bit, never bothering to come up with an excuse as to why the Digimons are there while Neonmon and Necromon stay still and sweat a bit nervously. Ken and Minomon saw this and decided to answer the question for them.
"Oh, these are gifts from a friend of ours." Ken said in a calm voice that makes it hard to tell if he's lying or not.
"Hmm," Tanya stares at the 3 In-Trainings before smiling, "They're so cute! And I like how the one you're holding matches you very well, Koichi."
The twins let out a sigh in relief before Koichi registers what Tanya said, "Wait, how does a black lion cub head match up with me anyway?"
"Well, you're always very shy and struggled so much but keep the hardship hidden in the dark, but you still have a heart like a lion's." Tanya said, winking at Koichi, making him have a light blush dusted on his cheeks.
"Approaching Tamachi, approaching Tamachi," the announcer said, just as the train stops with the doors opening after that.
Tanya gets up from her seat and asked, "You still live at the same address with you mom?"
Koichi nodded his head, still slightly blushing. Tanya giggles and said, "I'll see you tomorrow then!"
As soon as she walks out of the train, Koichi finally snaps out of his trance and registers what Tanya just said, "Tomorrow?" He turns towards Tanya's direction and tries to catch up to her, "Tanya wait!" But he lost tract of her in the crowd of people.
"Koichi?" the Darkness Warrior turns to look at Ken and Koji as they walk up to him.
"Sorry guys," Koichi rubs the back of his neck, "Tanya always behaves a lot like that ever since we first met."
"It's alright," reassures Ken as the 3 humans walk back home, unaware that both Neonmon and Necromon looks at one another with the same expression on their faces.
/ (With the Tamers and JP,)
"…and then both Taiki and Tagiru found out about Daisuke's cancer when he experienced another seizure when the battle's over. After that, they also made the same promise to help support Daisuke as much as they can since that last seizure requires all 7 of our symbols to overcome it." Takato explains to the other Tamers and JP about his and the other Heroes adventures since he returned from DigiQuartz.
"Wow, who would have thought that Gogglehead has been suffering so much," admitted Rika.
"So that's why you don't have time to hang out with us since your return from DigiQuartz," said Kazu.
Takato nodded in reply and said, "Since the seizure's getting worse, we know the cancer's getting close to its 4th stage." Takato sighs and look down a bit before continuing, "Daisuke needs us more than ever, but after we were told not to see each other last month for some unknown reason, only Taichi can help him the most while the rest of us sometimes went over to check on him." (AN1)
Everyone stay quiet after that before they split up to different directions to get home until only Kenta and JP are left since their homes are nearby one another. Along the way, there are a lot of things going through JP's mind; first about Myotismon, then on who could the other 4 Warriors may be, and about how Daisuke's life has been all this time.
JP's so deep in his thought that he accidentally bumps into someone, causing the both of them to fall backwards.
"Oww that hurts," JP mumbles in pain.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going," the person JP bumps into apologizes in a male voice.
"That's alright, I wasn't paying attention either," JP reassures as Kenta helps him up. When JP saw the person he bumps into, he couldn't help let a shocked gasp loose. "Richard?!"
The boy now identified as Richard looks up in shock before looking at JP with a surprise expression. "Wow Jeep! Long time no see!"
"Man, it's been almost 8 years since we last saw one another, but it felt like forever." JP admitted grabbing Richard's hand to help him up.
"I know what you mean," smirked Richard.
Richard is around the same age as JP and Kenta with short brown hair with a few small streaks of green on it, brown eyes and slightly tan skin. He's wearing dark brown jeans and a green t-shirt with a forest green headband on his head.
"Oh right, Richard, I would like you to meet Kenta," JP gestures towards Kenta, who smiles and waves at Richard, "Kenta, this is Richard Carlson, a friend from my childhood."
"But I thought you don't have any friends until you first met Takuya and the others," said Kenta.
"Actually," Richard started, getting Kenta's attention, "I've only met JP once 8 years ago before my parents and I moved to America since my dad's American while my mom's Japanese. We've managed to keep contact with one another ever since then."
"So what are you doing back in Japan anyway?" asked JP.
"My parents and I moved back to our old house here in Shinjuku just yesterday!" Richard mentioned.
"Wow, I can't believe I didn't realize you've arrived here at that time," JP said, rubbing the back of his neck.
"I want it to be a surprise for you," Richard admitted, "but jetlag got to me and I fell asleep almost the whole day yesterday. I've just finish unpacking and decided to go for a walk when I bump into you. Coincidence, right?"
"Yeah," JP said as the 3 of them walks back home.
"By the way," Richard started, "why aren't you wearing your yellow headband JP?"
JP Takes out a yellow headband from his pocket and stares at it before putting it on around his head, "I just don't feel comfortable wearing it since it reminds me so much about you."
"I understand," Richard smiles, unaware that Sparkmon in JP's hands keep taking glances at him once a while.
/ (With Zoe, Tommy, Zenjirou and Akari,)
The 4 of them just left Shibuya train station on the way home.
"So," started Zenjirou, "who should we drop first?"
"I think it should be me since I live the closest to the station," Tommy stated, which the other 3 agrees.
As they are walking, none of the 4 of them could let the information about Daisuke's condition and what the other heroes have to deal with ever since they were slowly reunited down.
"It's still hard to believe that Takuya and the other Heroes had to take care of Daisuke that's suffering with brain cancer for so long," confessed Zoe, looking down at DemiBayumon in her hands sadly.
"Is this cancer thing bad?" asked DemiBayumon.
"Very bad," admitted Akari, "A lot of humans die from it, and those that survive are a lot smaller in number compared to those that didn't survive."
"Wow, that is bad," admitted Frostmon, just when they arrive at Tommy's house.
Zoe rings the doorbell and the door opens a few minutes later by a 20 years old man that is Yutaka Himi, Tommy's older brother. He's wearing cream color jeans with a green t-shirt that has silver linings on them with a silver color scarf tied up around his neck.
"There you are Tommy," Yutaka walks out of the house as Tommy walks up to him, "mom and dad just told me to go look for you since you should've been back right now."
"Sorry," Tommy apologizes, "I got caught up with hanging out with my friends that I seem to have lost the time."
Yutaka smiles and turns Tommy's hat around, "That's alright, I'm glad you decided to do something other than staying at home watching TV with mom and dad all day like you used to."
"Hey, I've change a lot since then," Tommy defended, readjusting his hat a bit with one hand since the other's holding onto his partner.
"Anyway, thanks for bringing Tommy home." Yutaka said towards Zoe, Zenjirou and Akari.
"No problem," said Akari.
"See you tomorrow then Tommy," Zenjirou said as he waves Tommy goodbye leaving to go home.
"We'll pick you up at around 10 tomorrow," called Zoe, unaware that DemiBayumon looking at Yutaka before turning to Frostmon, both having the same expression on their faces until they're both out of each other's view.
/ (With Daisuke and Takuya,)
After explaining to Takeru, Hikari, and Miyako about Daisuke's cancer problem, Takuya insists that he takes Daisuke home since both of their families are staying with one another for now.
"Well," started Takuya, "that went well."
"Definitely not expecting a seizure right then and there at all," Daisuke admitted, making Takuya look at him in mix of frustration and relief.
"You're lucky it's not as bad as the last seizure you had a month ago where you nearly slip into a coma," Takuya said, making Daisuke rub the back of his neck nervously.
"I guess you're right," confess Daisuke, just as they approach their home.
When they both enter the house, the first one to greet them is Takuya's mother who's just about to head towards the kitchen.
"Ah, welcome back boys," she greeted them, "How was the gathering today?"
"It went well," Takuya replied and Daisuke insisted on helping out in the kitchen a bit with dinner, after giving DemiVeemon to Takuya so that the blue dragon doesn't eat any of the food before it's ready.
Takuya decided to watch some TV with the 2 In-Training dragons when suddenly,
"TICKLEPOUNCE!"
"Wha-!" Takuya was knocked off of the sofa, howling with laughter.
"Stop, Shinya, please," Takuya panted, laughter-induced tears running down his face as he tried to throw his brother off of him.
Shinya's wearing a light brown pair of jeans with a darker brown t-shirt and purple sleeves, and an earthy brown scarf is tied up around his neck. He's right now holding his big brother's hands down with one of his own while using his free hand tickling Takuya's sensitive side. "Uh-uh, you look like you were in too much stress, so I decided you needed to lighten up a little."
"Oh, I'll show you lightening up," Takuya gasped and bucked his brother off of him and tickled Shinya back.
"Hey, no fair," Shinya laughed and try to tickle Takuya back.
After a few minutes, both Kanbara siblings lay on their backs panting in exhaustion from the ticklepounce.
"You really got me there, Shinya," Takuya admitted, looking at his brother with a smile on his face.
"Well, you do look like you needed to overcome some stress, which I'm willing to help," replied Shinya, looking at Takuya.
Both of them look at one another and smiled before giving a fist bump, unaware that the 2 Digimons that are still on the couch was watching them the whole time; DemiVeemon in slight amusement, but Embermon with the same expression as the other 5 In-Training Warriors had earlier for some reason.
That night, everything seems to look normal, until a thick fog starts surrounding Odaiba by Myotismon like last time.
"Even if none of the remaining Warriors are located in this place, most of those DigiDestined scum are," Myotismon said to himself, "If there is one constant in all of the different teams, it is the predictability of the DigiDestined."
Myotismon used his spell to make the fog thicker before stopping again, "Threatening some of the members, the others would go against their better instincts and rush over to help." He smirks and concluded, "And those 6 Warriors will help me bring the other 4 right into my grasp. Hahahahaha… Ahahahahahaha!"
/ (The next morning at Takato's house,)
Takato and Gigimon are having breakfast before going off to gather the other Tamers and JP before heading to Odaiba when suddenly,
"There is a mysterious fog covering the entire Odaiba probably from late last night. No one could receive any contact from inside of the fog."
Takato looks at the TV and gasps at the image a patrol copter's broadcasting in the news; the entire Odaiba's covered in thick fog like a barrier.
"There hasn't been any sort of incident like this ever since the last one that took place at the same place 7 years ago. No one knows how all of the residence there is doing right now."
"I don't believe it!" gasps Takato, immediately leaves the room to contact the other DigiDestined that are not in Odaiba since he's one of the Heroes that is still outside of the fog.
/ (At Daisuke's room,)
"Takuya wake up!" Takuya was roughly woken up by Daisuke screaming in his ear.
The Flame Warrior groans angrily and swatted Daisuke away while getting up. "You better have a good reason to do that."
"Just look outside, will ya!" Daisuke said in a very serious tone that makes Takuya look at him in confusion.
Takuya walks up towards the window and gasps at the thick fog outside. "What the-no way!"
/ (At Taiki's house,)
The former General watches the news in the kitchen while having breakfast in shock at the fog forming around Odaiba.
"What's wrong, Taiki?" asked Shoutmon from Taiki's Xros Loader.
"There's a thick fog forming outside." Taiki replied.
/ (At Tagiru's house,)
"Just like what happened 7 years ago in Taichi's adventure," Tagiru said to Gumdramon that's inside his Xros Loader, watching the news like Taiki.
/ (At Taichi's room,)
"When Myotismon was trying to find the 8th DigiDestined," Taichi breathed as he stares at the fog outside that he knows Myotismon created to find the other 4 Warriors and create a barrier between the DigiDestined located in and out of Odaiba.
(^_^)(-_-)
(AN1) Spoiler for ending of 'The Heroes of the Digital World'
And that's the end of this chapter of Digimon Union! Things are not looking good now that Myotismon created a fog barrier like he did last time! Can the DigiDestined in Odaiba try to get contact with the others that are outside the barrier? And why the In-Training Warriors had that look on their faces when they first saw Tanya, Richard, Yutaka or Shinya?
PS, Digimon Union is now ON HOLD for a few reasons;
1 The next chapter will have something that's a MAJOR spoiler to 'The Heroes of the Digital World'
2 I'm having a bit of a writer block on an important part to the story that's coming in probably the next few chapters.
And 3 A certain SOMEONE STILL bugs me to update, update, update, AND IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS TO KNOW THAT THE SAME PERSON DECIDED TO INCLUDE MIRACLESVEEMON IN THE DIRTY WORK!
So that's that, Digimon Union is ON HOLD until either 'The Heroes of the Digital World' is completed or I'm satisfied enough to continue again, whichever comes first.
