A Prisoner's POV
A/N This was going to be Nobody's POV but I liked the thought of a prisoner, an innocent bystander, and another twist in the story.
I have been in the digimon emperor's prison for a while now. He has a grudge against me, and always has. That is why I am being held prisoner and not his slave.
But that is not what I am here to tell you. I am here to tell you the story of two people who saved a species. Or at least they began the war to save a species. Maybe more than one species. Perhaps they will save us all. But one thing I know. This is that they have changed our world forever. And that I was there to see it. I can just see myself years from now, youngsters crowded around me listening to stories of old. And this is what I'll say:
It began like this . . .
It was a beautiful day in the Digiworld. The sun shone and there was a pleasant breeze. But I was not there to see it.
I was stuck inside a dimly lit room and chained to a wall when the door opened. An Ogremon and a Leomon came in, leading a boy about high school age. He was struggling, kicking with all his might. The digimon emperor's slaves chained him to another wall. His face was half covered in shadow, and what I could see looked angry.
"You can take me prisoner but you'll never contain my soul!" yelled the boy. I sighed, remembering. Those were the very words I had said when they lead me into my prison. Now I am weak, and as much a prisoner in my own mind than outside of it. I couldn't stand to see that happening to someone else.
The boy's eyes are strong. Eyes contain much of the soul. You can tell so much about someone by looking into their eyes.
I was looking at him, but he didn't seem to see me. His eyes were looking past me, at something which I could not see.
"I hope she's okay." he muttered to himself. I wondered who he was talking about. Just then, the door opened again. It was, again, Ogremon and Leomon, but this time each was leading a different person. Ogremon had his hand around a woman's arm and the butt of his club poking her back. Leomon had a man by the wrists. Both looked tired and weary, but didn't struggle.
"MOM! DAD!" cried the boy, pulling against his chains.
"Tai." said the woman, tears filling her eyes. Tai? Why did this name sound familiar to me? Did it have something to do with my forgotten past?
My past is gone. It disappeared after about a year of being in this hell-hole. I can't remember anything, not even my own name. It's a mystery to me, one I long to solve.
"Tai, you've been so brave, but there's no reason to try to escape." said the man.
"Dad, what is WRONG with you? Of course we should try to get out of here! Why wouldn't we?!"
"There's no hope, Tai. This guy has won. He has total control. He says that even the heroes of this world, the dimi destined or something like that, have failed. There is no hope, Tai, there never will be." said Tai's mother.
"I'M the leader of the Digidestined!" Tai shouted. His parents looked ashamed.
"Well then, Tai, we're sorry you couldn't win."
"But it's not over yet!" he shouted.
(a/n this has gone a little too long. I'm changing the subject)
Just then, Ogremon and Leomon came in for a third time, this time pulling in two girls. One had pink hair and the other had purple. The pink-haired girl was fighting and protesting while a single tear fell down her face. The purple haired girl was silent and looked sad but defeated.
"Tai!" gasped the pink-haired girl. "Help me. They-they got Palmon."
"What?" Tai exclaimed, incredulous.
"Dark ring. Right around her left foot. She was going to-was going to-destroy me and Yolei."
"Did he get Hawkmon too?" Tai asked Yolei.
"Yeah. Hawkmon didn't say anything when he appeared, just Digivolved and failed. He (Hawkmon) seemed really weak."
"Did you see Agumon?" asked Tai, voice shaking.
"Yeah," said the pink-haired girl whose name I did not know.
"Where?! Mimi, where?" Tai demanded.
"He sent us a message, Tai. He sent us a message saying to come here."
"So that's how you knew where I was."
"No." said the girl named Yolei, so suddenly and forcefully I was surprised.
"What?" said Tai.
"Davis called. He said that you and Kari had been captured."
"Kari? She's been captured too? Davis? Huh?"
"You-you mean that Kari's not here with you?"
"No, she and Gatomon made a break for it. I convinced her to save herself and not worry about us."
"Wow, that must have been hard." Mimi smiled softly.
"It was."
Just then, guess who came in carting two prisoners. One prisoner had a head of blond hair and appeared to be unconscious. The other was also unconscious and had brownish hair.
"SORA!" Tai gasped. I assumed he was talking about the girl, since Sora is not exactly an appropriate name for a male.
"And Matt!" Mimi added. Ogremon and Leomon clamped irons around their hands and feet, then left. Everyone was quiet for a while.
"I guess almost all of us are here, huh?" Tai said sadly.
"Only five. We've still got Izzy, Joe, Cody, Davis, Kari, and TK. " said Yolei. As if on cue, Ogremon and Leomon came in, Leomon hauling two boys and Ogremon hauling one.
Mimi sighed. "Make that Kari, TK and Davis. " she said quietly.
We interrupt this broadcast to bring you this...thing. It's from TK's POV.
I ran. The wind blew my hair back and the world became a blur. I had to get there. Had to help. My brother...my best friends for life...they were captured...maybe dead.... Matt had e-mailed me, told me to get my butt to the Digiworld NOW, or he'd kill me, if he wasn't already dead. I knew Matt, and this was not something he would usually say, so I did what he asked, no, demanded, and went to the Digiworld were Agumon told me that everyone had been captured by the digimon emperor except me, Kari and Davis.
I was still running. The sound of my feet became a rhythm until...BAM! Someone had run into me full blast, going the opposite direction. I massaged my head, where there was a bump that had definitely not been there before. Then I looked up.
"Kari?" I said incredulously.
"TK! What are you doing here?"
"I-Matt-"
"Were you going to the digimon emperor's dungeons?"
"Yeah. Where are you going?"
"Same place."
"But you were going the other way!!"
"And YOU were going the WRONG way." Kari said slyly, tilting her head and smiling at me. I felt like a complete idiot.
"Shall we go together then?" I asked. Kari laughed.
"Of course." she said. We took off.
We now return you to your regular program.
"Hi." said the red haired boy who was either Izzy, Joe or Cody.
"Hi." said Mimi. Just then, Matt and Sora stirred. They both raised their heads.
"Unh." said Sora, looking around wildly.
"TK!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Matt screamed.
"Biyomon. Veemon. Gabumon. Tentomon. Digmon. Gomamon." said Sora. "Gone. Captured." Everyone else groaned. Then, the door banged open. I expected to see Ogremon and Leomon leading another prisoner, and I was right. They were leading one boy, goggles on head and hair semi-wild but not as wild as Tai's.
"Davis." said Yolei. It was more of a statement than a question. Silence reigned as he was chained to the wall just like the others and me. Then Ogremon and Leomon left. Still silence reigned. Then, the door opened again. It was not, as I had expected(and probably you too), Ogremon and Leomon but a strange digimon that I had never seen before, followed closely by the digimon emperor. "Burndramon...a mega digimon with the power of eighteen Piedmons." said the Digimon Analyzer. I gasped. The power of 18 Piedmons....That was a lot of power.
"Let's see you fight this guy while chained to the wall." the digimon emperor sneered.
"That's cowardly! We can't fight this way! Get me off this wall and fight like a man!" Tai screamed. The digimon emperor appeared to think.
"No," he said finally. "I'm not a man, I'm a coward." Tai stared at him.
"Huh?"
"I said, I'm not a man, I'm a coward."
"Okay..." said Sora, and then the door opened. It wasn't Ogremon and Leomon (finally) but a boy with blond hair and a girl with dark brown. Both had looks of determination on their faces.
"TK, Kari, get out of here before you get hurt." said Matt.
"Don't be insane." said TK.
"Burndramon, get them!!!" yelled the digimon emperor(I'm sorry, can't remember his real name).
"Crucifix!" yelled the digimon, aiming at the girl I assumed was Kari. She began screaming and so did Davis. I looked over at TK to see his reaction. I was surprised to see his face blurred with tears as Kari twitched and screamed in pain. When her screaming stopped, TK held out a hand to help her up. Kari took it, shakily, and stood up, leaning most of her weight on his shoulder.
Then the light began. It shone from behind the two children and grew brighter and brighter until I had to shield my eyes. That's when I knew what the light was.
It was the light of hope.
It was what happened when these two children put their powers together.
Even Tai's negative parents seemed to believe that the digimon emperor could now be defeated.
I certainly believed that he could be.
The light glowed brighter. I opened my eyes. The dark room had dissolved into whiteness, and the digimon emperor was screaming. He disappeared, and so did the irons binding us to the walls.
Everyone dropped to the ground and pulled themselves up.
"That...was awesome." whispered Sora. The entire group congratulated Kari and TK and then a bunch of digimon walked in the room.
"Hi!" said an Agumon, and went up to Tai. Each person greeted a digimon. Then, my eyes fell on Izzy the very second his eyes connected with mine.
"Gennai?" he whispered. Gennai. With that single word, my whole past rushed back to me. It rushed back with something else, something I had to tell these Digidestined children. I took a deep breath and began.
A/N Please do not flame me. My life and imagination went into this. By the way, this is definitely not the end. And I'll explain the evil Ken thing later. . .because it's not just some fic I wrote before Ken became a good guy. (obviously I'm not his most avid supporter)
