Everyone looks so wiped out that we really need to stop soon

Sora's POV

Everyone looks so wiped out that we really need to stop soon. I wonder if Tai can tell? I wonder if I should tell him? I don't want to act like I don't think that he can lead us or anything. I'm sure he'll figure it out on his own. I hope. Everyone needs a break and considering everything that's been going on lately, we really deserve one. Especially everyone else. We've all worked so hard that we deserve a little bit of a break. It's kinda stressful to save the world.

I think that Tai's decided that the next place that has a decent water supply we can stop at. It's amazing how he's always the one to find where we stop, but Izzy's the one that told him what to look for in the first place. Tai's really trustworthy though. I mean, after a guy saves your life and keeps your best friend from being controlled by some evil computer copy you tend to have complete confidence in them. Of course he hasn't personally saved the lives of all of the people our little group, but somehow he still seems to get the same reaction from them as he does from me. Pretty amazing. I suppose that I shouldn't be surprised, I have known Tai longer than most of the other guys. Still, I never knew that he would be able to pull a team like this together, but no one was more suitable for the job them him. Tai's really quite amazing. It's no surprise to me that he got chosen as a Digidestined, considering how he's acted this whole time. I wish I could have been as strong as he was.

Matt's really strong too, but in a different way. I can't quite place it, but he can grab my attention and I know that he's going to say something important. Sometimes Tai just mindlessly babbles about nothing in particular, which isn't bad, but Matt never does. He's blunt and to the point, always speaking his mind. I wish that I could be that truthful, but then again, then I would probably get in as many fights with Tai as Matt does. I really hate it when those two fight. They both have points that they are trying to make, but sometimes I wish that they could just have a debate or something. Not a fist fight. I kinda wonder if it hurts the others like it does me when Matt and Tai fight. I feel that somehow I should have been able to stop it. Then again, when Matt makes up his mind there's no changing it. I couldn't ever keep him from leaving the group. I know that I was trying to assure everyone that he would be OK, but deep down I was really worried. What if Piedmon had found him instead of Tai? He could have been dead, or worse! I guess that's a moot point now, considering that Piedmon is gone, but I can't help wondering.

It was really hard to reassure T.K. that Matt would be fine when I didn't totally believe it myself. I guess I can lie, or just stretch the truth if I really want to. I just figured that even though Matt said that T.K. was growing up and didn't need him anymore…well T.K. still needed someone. Even though we act like we're a lot older here than we actually are, that doesn't mean that I don't sometimes show how young I really am. T.K. may have matured, but he still needed his big brother. It's something that I wish that I had told Matt before he left, because I think that maybe it would have helped him. Still, even though I couldn't help him then I did after he left. T.K.'s not exactly a piece of cake to take care of. I guess Matt paid me back though, since he did explain that whole darkness thing to me. If I hadn't taken T.K. with me then I wouldn't have ever been saved from that evil darkness, so I suppose that everything paid off in the end. We did save both worlds, oh, and me too.

I know that Matt had experience with the darkness before and that's why he was able to talk to me, but I don't know how Joe made as much sense as he did. I would have expected him to act like he did with the Bakemon, argh that was a disaster, but he didn't. I guess that shows how much he's changed. Still, Mimi told me that Joe really helped her when she left. No self-pity or anything. I must admit, I'm impressed. I would have gone with Mimi if Joe hadn't volunteered first. Still, I think that he was the better choice to go. It's not that I don't trust Izzy, but Tai's a handful. Considering how different Joe and I am you'd think that we wouldn't get along at all, but I've really been proven wrong. Sure he can be annoying, I bet even he would admit that, but he's just trying to watch out for the group. Kinda like I do, but different. I can't really explain it, but it's true. It just…is.

I would have died if I had been the only girl in the Digiworld. True Kari's here now, but at the beginning it was me, Mimi, and a bunch of guys. I thought that we were seriously going to have a problem with the guys not wanting to save the world because they'd rather look at Mimi, but thankfully I was wrong. Then again, if Mimi had caught them gawking she probably would have given them a huge lecture on how they should appreciate women for what the act like, not how they look. I totally believe in that, but I would never say a whole speech in front of some guy's face just to prove it. I don't know what I'd do, but it wouldn't be that. No wonder Mimi got the crest of Sincerity. Sometimes I wish that I had gotten it, but I think it suites Mimi much better. Considering how honest she is, I was really amazed one time when she told me that she thought that the crest of Love fit me perfectly.

Izzy was more interested in taking my crest apart than what it meant. Figures, but he was always trying to figure out what they were made out of and how they worked. They just worked, that's all that I really knew and all that I cared about. Considering I thought mine wouldn't glow it wasn't important how it happened, it just mattered that it happened. Izzy may be a little introverted, I'm told that I can be at times, but he's still really nice. He's the one that figured out where Datamon was hiding me, or so Mimi told me, so I owe my life to him. That's one thing I like about Izzy. He's saved our lives countless times, but he never has flaunted the fact. Half the time we forget that he was the one that gave us the crucial information that lead to our victory. Still, he doesn't say that he's not appreciated, he just keeps doing what he loves. I don't know if I'm like that, but I'd like to be.

I have to admit that I am pretty amazed with Kari. I've freaked out so many times in the Digiworld that it's embarrassing. Kari always keeps her cool though, even when we're in the middle of battle. Well, almost always. Except for that fight with LadyDevimon. Still, that's understandable. I was ready to show that witch a thing or two too! Apart from that though, even when Machinedramon was about to pummel us she still managed to stay calm. Then again she does have the crest of Light that makes her special. Having a spirit or whatever inside me doesn't strike me as fun, so I'm glad that she got it instead of me. I'm proud that I got to help save her from Piedmon, considering that if I hadn't both worlds would have been gone by now. I just can't imagine all of the world, including my Mom, gone forever. Well, actually we would probably be the ones gone. Still, with the help of everyone and how wonderful they all are, we beat the evil. Not bad for kids our age. We can do anything if we just work together, and I have a feeling we won't be splitting up any time soon. In fact, I think that we can only grow closer.

A/N: Hmmm…first of all I want to apologize for how late I've been getting this out, but I've been busy! Argh! In summer you're supposed to relax, not have a breakdown! I don't know what to say about this, but I think that Sora's a really hard character to write. I don't know why. Maybe she's just so reserved and I'm so…not…that it's hard for me. Who knows? Who cares? That last one I can answer, and I know it's not me and probably not you either. Anyways, please review (I'm kinda hoping that you already read it, but even if you haven't review anyway!) because I really love to read them!
