Prologue: (Peter's POV) We finally found the DigiPort that would take us home. But that's not all that we found. We met DarkAngewomon's master named MagnaDevimon. He said that he was going to get revenge on our parents for his defeat twenty-nine years ago. Our Digimon weren't strong enough to stop him so I sent Ryo to find DarkAngewomon. She agreed to help stop her old master. MagnaDevimon jumped through the DigiPort to the real world. We followed him and ended up right back to where we started! I hope that we can stop him in time.
Chapter 1
"Dad! We're home!" Peter said as he and Isomon entered the apartment. He took off his shoes and laid them at the foot of the stairs. Suddenly, he heard crying in the kitchen.
"What's that sound, Peter?" Isomon asked.
"I think someone's crying." Peter said as he tiptoed to the kitchen. There he saw a very solemn sight. His father, Taichi Kamiya, was talking to a very upset Sora Takenouchi-Ishida, Matthew and Serena's mother. She was the one who was crying. Her face was a mess of scars and bruises from Matt's abuse. Peter hid behind a door as Tai talked to Sora.
"Sora, we've always been best friends. We never kept anything from each other. Why won't you let me help you?"
"Tai, you can't. I have to handle this myself." Sora whispered as she tried to wipe the tears from her bruised face. She had suffered more abuse at the hands of her current husband, Matt, that day. She came to Tai, who had moved back to Japan last year, and talked to him while the children were at camp.
"Sora, look at yourself. I won't let you do this alone. Now, tell me why he did this to you."
"I can't."
"I won't see you, Matthew, or Serena get hurt, Sora." Of all the people in the world and Digital World, it had been the one person who she had given her heart to that hurt her most. "Sora... why did Matt do this to you?"
"Tai..." Sora broke down and sobbed in his arms as Tai held her tightly. There was a steady fire in his chocolate brown eyes. It was the fire of revenge.
"Sora, no one has the right to hurt his wife or his children. NO ONE does. Now please, tell me everything that happened."
As Sora told Tai all of the physical and psychological abuse that she had suffered by Matt, Tai grew angrier and angrier. Peter was also steamed because of what Matthew and Serena had to witness. By the time she was finished, Tai was enraged. He calmly let Sora go as he stood up.
"Agumon!" Tai called into his room. His Digimon promptly appeared at his side. "We're going for a walk."
"Tai, no!" Sora grabbed his arm, knowing exactly what he will do. The only time that Tai ever said that he went for a walk was if he was going to declare a private war out of revenge. It happened once before after they came back from the Digital World twenty-nine years earlier. (I'll tell you about it someday). "Please, don't Tai. He'll kill you." Sora pleaded. "Then he'll hurt the children. Please, just let it be... for now."
Tai looked into Sora's ruby-colored eyes and saw her pleading with him. He slowly calmed down and sat back down. "All right, Sora. I'll let it go, for now." Peter and Isomon were stunned. Everything that Matthew said was true. Unfortunately, for now, there was nothing that they could do about it. He slipped upstairs to his room and thought about what had just happened.
"What do you think is going to happen to them, Peter?" Isomon said to his partner.
"I don't know, buddy. I don't know." Peter said as he started at the ceiling.
Chapter 2
"Dad! Dad! Wake up, quick!" Peter said as he rushed into his father's bedroom. Tai and Agumon woke up with a start.
"Tamachi," Tai said as he called his son by his true name, "couldn't you have found a better way to wake up your old man?"
"It's Mrs. Ishida. She's gone!" Peter said.
"What?" With that, Tai raced out of his bedroom with Peter, Agumon, and Isomon following. "Sora? SORA?" There was no answer. He then noticed a note on the kitchen counter. Peter picked it up and read it. It read:
Dear Taichi,
I'm sorry, but I can't stay with you. I have to work things out with Matt. He means well, really he does. I still love him and I have to try to hold the
family together. Thank you for being there for me. Tell Tamachi that I said hello.
With love,
Sora
"What does this mean, Dad?" Peter asked.
Tai didn't answer. Instead he threw on his pants and grabbed his goggles, which he had gotten back from Davis years ago. He slipped them on for the first time in twenty years along with his old digivice. "Tamachi, Agumon, c'mon!"
"Where are we going, Tai?" Agumon asked his friend.
"To save Sora before Matt does something that I'll have to kill him for." Tai said with a flash of anger in his eyes. He and his child ran out the door without a second thought. As Tai ran over to Sora's apartment, all sorts of memories ran through his mind...
The day he and Sora met in kindergarden...
The day that she joined the boy's soccer team...
The day that they first went to the Digital World...
The day that he saved Sora from Datamon's pyramid...
The day that her crest glowed for the first time...
The Christmas that she fell in love with Matt...
Suddenly, Tai's digivice reactivated for the first time in years, filling Tai with Courage. He had to get to Sora before it was too late. He HAD to. They finally reached Sora's apartment, where they heard sounds of horrible violence inside. When the sound stopped, Tai's blood suddenly ran stone cold. What if Sora was already seriously hurt? Or worse...
"Sora?" Tai shouted as he banged on the door. "Sora, are you there? It's me, Tai." There was no answer. He kicked the door open and was startled at the sight. There were clothes strewn about and furniture that was destroyed. Yet there was no sign of Matt, Sora, or the children. He then turned to his son. "Tamachi, go find Mathew and Serena. I'll see if I can find Sora."
"Okay." Peter said. He ran upstairs where he found Matthew and Serena huddled in a corner. "Guys, it's me, Peter."
"Peter," Matthew said as he got up off of the floor. "What are you doing here?"
"Me and Dad came to help you guys." Peter said. "Where's your mom?" Suddenly, he heard screaming and banging downstairs. The children ran downstairs and saw Tai and Matt fighting. He had found Sora beaten nearly unconscious in the bathroom by a tyrannical Matt. Tai tried to drag him away from her but Matt almost punched him in the mouth.
"Stay out of this, Kamiya!" Matt growled. "This doesn't concern you!"
"It does when you hurt Sora!" Tai retorted. "All these years I watched as she almost made herself sick supporting you while you were too busy dumping Mathew and Serena off on T.K. Then you have to put your hands on her? You're lucky that I don't break every bone in your pathetic body! You don't deserve her, Matt. You never did if you're going to hurt her like this." Sora seemed to smile at the comment. After all of this time, Tai still cared about her, even to risk his life like this and many other times before. He truly DID love her.
"You don't get it, do you? She pretended to be sweet and caring while all this time she was straddling me. Sora did nothing but talk about you all the time and I got sick of it. She always said "Tai always did this" or "Tai always did that." I tried but nothing was good enough for little Ms. Crest of Love! No! She had to be a b----."
Matt was promptly shut up as Tai slugged him across the mouth. The two former DigiDestined then took the battle into the living room, where the children were watching from the stairway. Serena was paralyzed while Peter and Matthew quietly watched. Again and again, Tai punched Matt, letting out all of his pain and anger over losing Sora to him out. Pure rage flushed into Tai's fists as he pounded on Matt. Tai was a monster bent on vengeance. Suddenly, a soft hand was on his shoulder as Tai snapped out of his anger.
"Tai... stop. He's had enough." Tai turned around and saw Sora standing over him, the children behind her.
"Daddy... I think that's it's time to go home." Peter said. Tai took one last look at Matt, whose face was swollen and bloody in several places. As he got up, Sora hugged him while she cried. Tai rubbed her back and held her while they stood there. The Digimon, who were outside listening, finally came inside.
"Is it safe to come inside now?" Isomon said.
"It is now." Peter said to his Digimon. Agumon went over to Sora and placed a reassuring claw on her knee.
"I'm sorry that you and Biyomon had to go through that, Sora."
"Sora," Tai said as he dried her tears, "would you like to come and stay with us until we can straighten this out?"
Sora looked for one last time at Matt, her heart filled with contempt instead of love. "Yes Tai, I would. Thanks for being there for me." She said as she hugged him.
"I never left." With that, the current and previous DigiDestined left the house of misery, leaving Yamato Ishida as a matter for the police.
Chapter 3
The next day, there was a knock at the Kamiya residence door. Peter woke up first after getting a rude awakening from Isomon. He quickly threw on his khaki pants and answered the door.
"Kamiya residence... you?"
Suddenly, Peter's eyes snapped open. At the door was Peter's cousin, Kate. She looked identical to her mother, Hikari, except her hair was much longer. She was wearing a yellow short sleeve shirt and hot pink khaki pants. She was carrying a pink backpack and a light pink digivice. She had a Ringmon with her, a feline Digimon that was similar to Gatomon.
"Hey Peter. Guess who's here?" Kate said with a sweet smile.
How does Kate fit into the picture? And what is MagnaDevimon planning? Find out on the next "Digimon: Digital Monsters"
