One World Isn't Enough

A cold wind blew around Sora and her black dress, the trees swayed gently with each gust. Behind her stood TK, Kari, Izzy, Mimi, Cody, Yolei, Ken, and any other surviving Digidestined. They all stood in front of a single grave atop a hill. It wasn't too elaborate, but that's the way every thought it should be. Two names were printed upon the graves, Taichi Kamiya and Wargreymon. Sora tossed her blue and red flowers to the grave, tears running down her cheeks. She managed to choke out her little speech. We may have won the war... but we really lost it. The one we all loved and trusted was lost to us... forever!
Kari walked to Sora's side. We all know that you loved Tai, and that he loved you, but you must live on! It has been ten years! You say the same little speech each time we're all here together. Again, move on with your life... for Tai's sake.
Sora's eyes swelled with tears once again. Thanks, Kari. You're right, I should move on... she closed her eyes to hold back the remaining tears. I should have done years ago! TK patted Sora on the shoulder, then walked down the hill with Kari to their car. He didn't need to say anything, words were no longer needed for this day in time.
Matt whispered into Sora's ear, We all loved Tai, on some level. He, too, walked down the hill, Mimi joined him once her hugged Sora.
Yolei approached Sora, her eyes a little misty. Please move on, Sora! It might help him rest in his grave. Ken and herself walked over to Izzy's open laptop, their D-3s held out, then both disappeared. Izzy closed up the laptop, hugged Sora, then left for his car. Davis handed Sora a black rose, something not so common in the area he lived. Joe left without saying a word, he came for this yearly gathering, but didn't like the idea of trivializing something that happened so long ago; and that hurt everyone so much. Cody brought a flag of the Digital World Protectorate, an organization formed by the Digidestined that protects the Digital World and the Real World. This massive undertaking was all in the name of Tai, he would have liked what they had done for the two Worlds. Sora turned around, looking to the bottom of the hill, all the surviving Digidestined stood there, finally leaving once Sora waved to them. She turned back to the grave, just as the clouds released their rain upon the land. Lightning danced across the sky, attacking the tallest of the trees. Sora observed the purple D-3 sealed within a transparent container, embedded with the grave. She took out her D-3, pointed it towards Tai's. A faint pink light glowed from Sora's, while an even fainter purple light was emitted from Tai's. With one last burst of energy, the D-3 went dead, Tai's D-3 was active til this day.
Sora dropped her head in despair, returning her D-3 to her pocket. I will always miss you, Tai. Why did Noctem do this to us? Split us all apart. If only we could have gotten those digieggs of Kari's and Ken's to activate, maybe then this would have been different. If only you could see you little sister and TK, they make such a good married couple! But you're gone, there's nothing we can do to change that. Good bye, my love, Sora walked down the hilltop, the rain coming down just as hard as ever.
In the distance, five figures in black suits watched. Each of them were identical to the last, down to the smallest hair. Perfect black hair on their heads, shinny black shoes, and topped off with black gloves. Wind whipped around them as they glared at Sora leaving the hill. One of them spoke to the others, TK and Kari have to children, both with their parents powers, but aren't fully developed yet. We must be careful of them! They could destroy us at their whim! But, the children of the other Digidestined will be easy to capture, their powers are no where near developed. We'll strike in twenty-four hours, we will make our master proud! he smiled wickedly at that idea. He pushed through the other four people, a rift in space quickly opened up in front of him. On the other side of the rift, waves could be seen crashing into a shoreline of black sand. All five walked into the rift, it sealed behind them moments later.
