Part 6:
Akira ripped of his helmet. He saw that Seiji, Tai, Sora, and their Digimon, didn't have space suits on, so he took his off as well. "Seiji!" he yelled,"Time's up!"
"Is it really?" he asked from his perch on top of the tower. "I have killed the architect of the future dream! I have humbled the parents of the tomorrow pain! I have destroyed the embodiment of the apocalypse! Only you remain, my failed brother. So as you can see, time is up, and down, and inside and out and mine to control! Which all means, that if any one's borrowed time is up, it is yours!"
Akira smiled at him. "I've learned that time has never been something we can control. Not Apocalymon, not me, not you! So if my time has come today, fine! But I'm taking you with me, Seiji!"
"Perhaps you are right at that, Akira," Seiji said, taking off his helmet. "Perhaps time is not ours to abuse."
Everyone gasped when they finally saw his face. It was an exact replica of Akira's! He mentioned to Tai and Sora. "Does that mean Tai Kamiya and Sora Takenouchi should be forgiven for their trespasses?"
"I have no idea what you're talking about!" Akira said.
"Oh, no?" Seiji asked, mentioning to the holographic projectors in the back. They were replaying when Tai gave his son, Sashi, to Sistermon. "Look at this!"
Akira had heard the legend of Sashi Kamiya many times, but this was the first time he actually got to see a picture. Suddenly, everything started to fall in place. "I...I don't believe it!" he mumbled,"Seiji and I...one of us is....I..I hope its me! Because then I'm Tai's....Tai's my f...."
He was suddenly pushed out of the way by Mechmon.
"Mechmon digivolve to Technomon!"
"Technomon digivolve to Technomechmon!"
The giant tyrannosaurus said in a deep voice. "I'll handle Spacemon!"
The silent Digimon and Akira's Digimon began to fight. "Tai, "Sora said,"What chance does Technomechmon have..alone...against that madman?"
"I don't know, Sora," Tai said,"But I'm beginning to doubt if Seiji is really as mad as he seems. Maybe if we can find out what twisted him we can end this madness!"
They watched in horor as Spacemon mercilessly beat up Technomechmon. "We have to do something!" Agumon said.
"I know!" Sora said," There is a possibility. the more Spacemon concentrates on the battle, the weaker the energy bonds he's holding with weaken. If he remains, occupied, I should be able to break free!"
Spacemon threw Akira's Digimon into the ground and was about to go for the kill, when Angewomon suddenly yelled," Celestial Arrow!"
Spacemon turned just in time to see the arrow slam into his face. "You relish dealing in pain, don't you, Spacemon? " she said.
"I had programmed my genetic fore field to let the Kamiya DNA through, but I see it let the sister and her Digimon in also!"
"Well, it did!" Kari said,"Kicked me preatty hard for not being Tai, but I've always done a good job of that myself!"
"It would appear anyone who bears the name of Kamiya must pay for it, doesn't it?"
Spacemon was about to lunge for Angewomon, when Wargreymon punched him from the side.
"Its over!" Tai said. He and Sora were riding Bridramon down to the ground. "Whoever, whatever, you are, its over!"
"We can work to heal your wounds!" Sora said,"Let's work them out together!"
"Together?" Seiji asked, dumbfounded. "All of us, together? No. You're lying! If I trust you, you'll just betray me again!"
He turned to them. "Look at me! Look at me! I'm nothing! For the first time, I realize it! Akira's not a clone of me! I'm a clone of him! I'll destroy you all!"
Spacemon shot a blast at the base of the tower. It started to crumble. Tai and the others jumped under Sora's telekinetic bubble, while Akira and Technomechmon ran the other way.
"Akira!" Tai cried,"What are you doing? Get over here!"
"Can't," he said, taking a box out of his backpack,"I'm ending this now! I know what's true, I don't know if you know it yet, but you will! Take care!"
"Seiji!" he cried as he and Technomechmon ran over to him and Spacemon. "Time is up!"
He pressed a button on the box. There was a giant explosion, that lit up the sky. "He wasn't afraid." Kari said.
"He knew this was right," Sora said.
"So I let him go," Tai said," again."
After the tower crumbled, the others, still in their spacesuits, gave Tai and the others ones to put on.
"Hey!" Mimi said,"Apocalymon is gone!"
"Let him go," Tai said, looking at the pile of wreckage. "I just lost a piece of my heart, a second time."
"No!" Sora said,"Tai, you don't think.."
"Yes," he said," I do think! Akira was..was Sashi! he was my son!"
"What do you mean 'was'?"
They turned to the sound of the voice. They saw Akira and Mechmon climb out of the wreckage, in their space suits.
As he walked over everyone started cheering. "Guys," Izzy said," Geni just sent me a message. He's sending a ship up to get us, but we have twenty minutes to spare, what should we do?"
Tai turned to Akira. "I, ah, I..."
Tai turned to Akira. "I, ah, I..."
Akira held up his hand. "When I was growing up, the Sistermons told me that my real father was gone. I never questioned them, I always though he was dead. I do remember reading the records from this time period, about the Digidestined. You were the one I looked up to, Tai. I resented my father, for not being the kind of person Tai Kamiya was in the records, turns out, you were that person all along. A person I'm proud to know, and even prouder to call..father!"
"I..I missed you so much!" Tai said.
Akira smiled. "For the record, I never hated you. I suppose, what Seiji wanted when he thought he was the original and not the clone, was something I want right now. I want to know if you are half as angry as I was that we were separated. I guess, like any other son, I want to think you missed me. Now I know."
Tai hugged him. "Come on. Let's go home."
THE END.
WERE YOU ABLE TO FIGURE IT OUT FROM THE CLUES? AKIRA'S ARM, THAT WAY THAT AKIRA'S DIGIMON DIGIVOLVED, USING CRESTS, THE FAKE BABY SEIJI PLANTED, OR THE WAY HE TALKED TO TAI AND SORA? IF YOU DID, CONGRADULATIONS AND THANKS FOR READING!
