Author's Notes: Me again! Sorry, I would have put this up yesterday, but I was out all day. I went to me S Club 7!!! Well, here's part 2. This time it's in Matt's POV. I love Matt! ^_^ Events begin to unfold and it's a bit longer than the first two parts. I don't own digimon, etc...
Dungeons & Destinies
Part 2: The Key of Trust
"Hey, did anyone hear that?" I asked, looking up from where Joe had landed after diving away from Tai's wild shot.
I think I should back up here a bit, before I get too far ahead of myself. The name's Matt. Well, actually it's Yamato Ishida, but I only get called Yamato when I'm in serious $#!+. Sorry about that little swear word, I'll try to avoid them from now on.
Tai's probably already given you the introduction to our story, so I don't have much to say. Just tell me one thing, did he say anything about me and Melis? If he did, I'll kill him! You've probably guessed that Melis and I have a little something going on. Well, not quite little, more like major! I don't want to bore you with romance though, so I'll get on with it.
"What is it, Matt?" asked Melis. We're kind of the opposite in the senses. I have amazing hearing, to tell you. Better than any of the others. My eyesight is good, but not as good as hers. She's whip my @$-I mean but in I Spy any day. "Hearing things, are we?"
"I don't know," I shrugged. "I thought I heard Tai. It sounded like he was in trouble."
"But he just went to get the ball," Izzy stated. "How much trouble could he get into?"
"Knowing Tai," Kari said, "anything's possible. We'd better go check it out."
We abandoned our soccer game, much to Melis' joy(it's not exactly her favourite sport, unlike Tai) and ran in the direction Tai had gone. What could of possibly have happened to him now? I asked myself. We're only in the park, we've hung out here for years!
We came across a bunch of bushes. Lying next to them was an unconcious Tai.
"Tai!" Sora cried, rushing over to him. "Tai, what happened? Wake up!"
"Is he okay?" asked Kari.
"You're the doctor," I said looking at Joe. "You can figure it out, right?"
"Maybe," replied Joe nervously. "I'm not sure. I'm only a student and I don't have healing powers." When I think back to when Joe said that, I begin laughing. But I don't want to give anything away.
"He's coming around," Sora told us. A moan escaped Tai and he slowly opened his eyes. He looked around groggily.
"Where's Asthimar?" Tai asked, standing up. "Where'd he go?"
"Asthimar?" I repeated. "Who's Asthimar? Tai, you must of been hit in the head. I think you're a little out of it!"
"I'm not making it up, Matt!" snapped Tai. I gave him a sour look. "I know what I saw! There was this man, he was wounded and dying."
Tai dove into a description of the man and what he had been told. Apparently, this "mage" had told Tai we were all destined to save some far off world. It sounded like one of those Dungeons and Dragons games I had heard about.
"I think Tai's going geeky," I taunted. "He's making up Dungeons and Dragons fantasies. Can you say 'nerd'?"
This time it was Melis who gave the sour look. At me. "DND is not for geeks, Matt! I'll have you know me and my old schoolmates used to play those kind of games!"
"Sorry," I mumbled, looking at the ground. I kind of melt under Melis. Something seems to come and sweep all my nerve and toughness away. I think it's what Mimi calls "woman power." Whatever.
"I'm not mak-"
"Tai, what's that?" Izzy asked, pointing towards the bushes. I looked over to where he was pointing. A boot was visible through the brush.
"Asthimar!" Tai cried, pushing aside the bushes. What we saw next was creepy. Mimi screamed. A skeleton lay in the bushes, fully clad in armour. In his hand he held a device of some sort. A little box with a keyhole. Rather strange.
"What's an ancient skeleton doing in the park?" pondered Izzy. "That's strange. And what about the thing in his hand?"
"Strange," I mused. "I guess Tai wasn't making it up after all."
"Told ya," Tai said. "I wonder what this box is for? He said we had to save his world. Maybe this box has something to do with it."
"Let me see!" Melis said, pushing Tai aside and grabbing the box. As soon as her hands came in contact with the box, it began to glow. She stared in awe. "What's going on?" she asked, her eyes wide.
"That's it!" Izzy exclaimed, snapping his fingers. "The keyhole! The key of trust! Put your crest up to the hole, Melis."
She looked right at me. "Should I? You know me, whenever I touch something nothing good ever happens. What if I unleash something..."
That's my girl! When it comes down to important situations, she's a very serious girl. I smiled reassuringly. "Do it, Melis. Open up the box."
"Okay," she sighed, taking a deep breath.
She pulled her tag and crest out from under her shirt and held it up to the keyhole. The box vibrated and a light shone out from the cracks around the lid. The box popped open and nine beams of light shot out.
I stared up at the light in awe. Suddenly I could feel a ripple of some sort go through the air. Tai's soccer ball popped, or rather exploded, making us jump in shock. The skeleton of Asthimar was reduced to dust.
"What's going on?" I asked no one in particular. "What came out of the box?"
One by one we were hit by jets of light. I tumbled backwards, colliding with a nearby tree. I tried to get to my feet, but found I for some reson I didn't have the energy to move. I then noticed I couldn't see or hear anything, my senses appeared to have vanished. All I could see was light, and it quickly engulfed me.
Now things are beginning to move into motion. I told you this part would be longer! Sorry, this wasn't up yesterday, I went to Playdium at 6:30. That means I was in line for S Club 7 for.....7 hours I think. But it was worth it! Part three coming soon!
