DIGIMON 02

Chapter 4: Past Confusion


Ken sat in his chair, looking at the monitors. "I wonder who that girl is that I keep dreaming of" He said. Wormmon looked at Ken with a nervous look on his face. "What did she look like?" Wormmon asked. Ken sighed and answered him, "She was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen," Ken paused for a moment, "Like Charity." Wormmon looked back at the screen. "I wonder if I should tell Ken" Wormmon thought to himself. Ken sighed and walked back to the room that he had put Charity in.
Charity was sitting on the bed in her room that Ken had given to her. "Why do I feel like I know Ken from somewhere other than the time we met when Sam died?" Charity asked herself. Charity remembered having a dream about a guy that looked exactly like him and she was there in a beautiful white dress. Charity shook the memory out of her head when she heard a knock on her door. "Charity, may I come in?" asked Ken in a soft voice. Charity got up and opened the door to let Ken in. "So, how have you been adjusting to your new home?" Ken asked. Charity brushed a few strands of hair from her face. "Just fine" was all she would say. They both sat in silence for a while and then Charity asked him something. "Have you been having these weird dreams about this girl that's wearing a beautiful white dress and a guy in prince's clothing and they both look like us?" asked Charity. "So, you've been having the same dream too?" he asked her. Charity nodded her head. "The place where they were felt familiar, somehow" Ken said.
"Prince Ken?" asked one of the royal guards. "Yes?" Ken said as he stood up. "Princess Charity wishes to speak with you" the guard said as he got ready to escort the prince to where she was. Princess Charity was staring out of her bedroom window at the stars when the guard knocked on the door. "Princess Charity, Prince Ken is here" Charity nodded her head and Ken entered. "Ken, I'm so happy to see you" Charity said with tears in her eyes. Ken embraced her in a hug and slowly bent down to kiss her on the lips. Charity closed her eyes as Ken's lips landed on her own and she began to kiss back. After the kiss ended, Charity and Ken went out on the balcony. "The stars are beautiful aren't they, Ken?" Charity asked smiling sadly. Ken noticed a tear in the corner of Charity's eye. "Charity, what's wrong?" he asked with concern. "After tonight, we may never see each other again" she said tearfully. "Why?" he asked. "Princess Casey has predicted that our kingdom will be attacked and we won't survive it" she said. Ken stared at Charity and then he smiled. "Don't worry, I'll try to help in protecting the Kingdom" Charity smiled a little. "I love you Ken" she said. "And I love you Charity" he said and then they kissed again.
Ken got up and started looking through some books on a shelf. "I know I've heard of Charity's name way before I met her" he said to himself. He dug out a book that looked like it could have been at least one hundred years old. He turned to the middle of the book and gasped. There was a guy that looked like him with his arms around a girl in a white dress and below them was their names, Princess Charity Tora and Prince Ken Ichijouji. Ken nearly dropped the book when he saw their names in it. He then read about how the two had fallen in love and were engaged the very night before their kingdom was destroyed. Charity finally stood up and walked over to where Ken was. "Ken? Hello?" she said as she waved a hand in front of his face. "Those two people in the dream was us" he said. "What?" asked Charity. Ken looked at her. "It makes sense," he said, "We were reborn after the kingdom was destroyed." Charity was beginning to get freaked out. "Um Ken? What are you talking about?" she asked nervously. Ken pointed to the picture and then the names below them. "Those are the same two people in my dream and those are...our names?" she asked. "You mean that this book is stating what we were in the past?" she asked with wide eyes. Ken nodded and turned to the next page. There was a picture of Ken and Charity, kissing passionately under the stars. "We were in love with each other?" she asked. "Oh it goes further than just love," Ken said, "We were engaged to one another." Charity almost fainted after she heard that. "Does that mean we will get married like we were going to before the kingdom was destroyed?"
"Well, I...." Was all that Ken could say as Charity stared at him.


A cliffhanger! What will happen? Does Ken know more than he's letting on? And is this book actually stating what happened to them in the past?
Chapter 5 will be up soon. I decided to put this chapter up early even though I said next week at the end of chapter 3.
