Matt and the others came running in and stopped.
"Do something Joe, Do something!"
"Alright, alright," Joe said. Joe checked his pulse and his breathing.
"Is he gonna be okay?" Kari asked very worried.
"His pulse and breathing are there but they are dim, and he's bleeding badly. Okay, Matt, take off your shirt." Matt took it off and Joe ripped it into two pieces and began bandaging Tai's head and waist.
"Okay, Matt take his legs, we need to get him to a doctor." They carried him to the exit and travelled back to the real world. They were back at Sora's place as that is where that gate was connected to.
"Right, Sora where is the nearest hospital?" Joe asked.
"It's three blocks down," she replied.
"Okay, we'll carry him its not that far."
"No, my mom left the car today, you can take that," Sora said, still a little panicked.
"Great, let's get our stories straight. Tai was coming over here and he fell down some stairs, not many but he hit his head." They all agreed.
"Hey Izzy, shouldn't you contact daedelous?" T.K. asked, he kinda knew the answer.
"Yeah, I'll get right on it," he replied.
"I'll drive. Joe you'd better come with me," Matt suggested.
"I'm coming too," Sora said.
"We'll walk after you," Kari said.
"Oh Kari, I completely forgot. You had better go with," Sora said.
"No it's okay Sora, I understand. Besides, it won't take that long to walk."
"Hey Matt, don't you need a shirt?" Davis asked rhetorically.
"Damn, I forgot. Do you have anything I could use Sora?"
"Yeah I think," she replied. She ran out for quickly and returned with a plain white shirt. Matt put it on, it was way too small, but it had to do.
"You guys had better stay here, excepting Agumon of course," Izzy said to the digimon.
"Okay, we understand," Gabumon replied on behalf of the group.
"Come on, you'd better go by bag," Izzy said. Agumon climbed in, then Matt and Joe grabbed Tai. They walked carefully down the stairs and out him in the car and Matt sped off for the hospital. Davis grabbed Agumon and then they began walking.
"You sure you'll be alright Kari?" Davis asked.
"Yeah, thanks," Kari replied securely, she was faking it.
"We'd better hurry," T.K. said as they began to run. It didn't take them long and they ran inside. It was raining quite hard so they were all drenched. Kari approached the counter, "Excuse me, my brother was brought in a few minutes ago, I'd like to know where he is," she asked.
"Name?" the woman replied.
"Kamiya, Taichi."
"17 year old, head injury."
"Yes that's him."
"Second floor, room 213."
"Great, thankyou very much," Kari walked up to the others, "He's upstairs, follow me." She led them to his room, Matt, Sora and Joe were waiting outside.
"Is he okay?" Kari asked.
"We don't know, the doctor's in there now," Joe replied. Sora looked really worried. Mimi moved over to Matt's side. The door then opened and the doctor came out.
"What wrong with him?" Sora and Kari asked almost in unison.
"Calm down girls, it's not too serious yet. He took a big fall and he's hit his head resulting in some bad cuts and he's unconscious. The cuts are easily stitched but we can't be sure when he'll wake up."
"But he'll be okay when he does?" Sora asked.
"Yes, you see he's only unconscious it's kinda like he's sleeping. We do suggest you talk to him. Is that all your questions?"
"Yes, thankyou doctor," Kari said The doctor went back into Tai's room and the
"Maybe we should go get something to eat," T.K. suggested.
"Yeah, that would probably help," Izzy said. They began walking to the restaurant. The sat down in a booth, but nobody could face food, except Agumon of course, but he was the only one who couldn't really have any. They sat and waited for a while.
"I can't take this anymore!" Kari shouted in dismay.
"Kari, calm down, we're all worried," T.K. said calmly, and took her hand.
"I know, but I feel like we're doing nothing here when we should be helping him somehow," Kari paused, "I can't think about life without him, he's my brother." The tears began to roll down her cheeks, "He's always been there for me and now he could be gone." She was now crying uncontrollably. T.K. pulled her close and she cried into his chest.
"Kari, it'll be okay, you heard what the doctor said," T.K. said trying to comfort her.
"But what if it's not," she said in between her tears.
"We can't think like that, we have to have faith in the doctors and in him. I tell you what, you go get cleaned up and we'll go talk to the doctor." T.K. continued.
"Okay," she stumbled.
"Come on Kari, let's go to the bathroom," Mimi said as she stood.
"Yeah, let's go," Sora added. The three girls went off to the bathroom.
"Hey guys, can I have some food?" Agumon whispered from under the table.
"Um, I guess so," Izzy replied. He went over to the counter and got a chocolate muffin. He took it back to the table and passed it down to Agumon.
"Mmm, chocolate," he said in delight.
"He's so easy to please," Matt said. Kari came out of the bathroom with the others and they went back to the others.
"Come on, let's go," T.K. said to Kari, he took her hand and they went up to the doctor, the others were close behind.
"Excuse me, how's he doing?" Kari asked.
"He's fine, we cleaned him up and he woke up about 15 minutes ago, he's sleeping now. You can go in if you like."
"Thankyou doctor, thankyou so much," Kari said. They filed into the small room.
Tai was sleeping, when they walked in he stirred. They all got in and he turned to face them.
"Anybody get the number of that bus?" he said slowly. Kari laughed and then burst into tears and rushed over to him. She wrapped her arms around him.
"Ah, hey slow down there sis."
"Sorry," she said.
"How do you feel?" Sora asked.
"Well, kinda like a huge evil digimon whacked me right in the back."
"Seriously, how are you doing?" Mimi asked.
"I'm fine, I've got one hell of a headache but I'll be fine. Hey Joe, thanks for what you did, the doctor says you did a good job."
"I just did what came to mind," Joe said modestly.
"That was pretty brave, and stupid," Matt said.
"Yeah, I suppose, but I did what I had to."
"I almost forgot, we brought a surprise," Davis said putting the bag on the floor. He let Agumon out and he sprang onto Tai.
"Agumon!"
"Tai, you're okay."
"Of course I am."
"I'm sorry."
"For what."
"For failing you, I couldn't protect you."
"Don't worry about it, there was nothing you could do. I didn't expect you to take him on in your rookie form."
"I'm really glad your okay," Izzy said.
"You guys talk like I was almost dead."
"Um Tai, you kinda were," Matt said.
"Well you won't get rid of me that easily," Tai replied.
The doctor opened the door and came in.
"How nice, your friends brought you a gift," he said looking at Agumon, "But what's it supposed to be?"
"It's uh… a gag gift," Tai said.
"Yeah, we thought it would be fun," Sora continued trying to strengthen Tai's reason.
"Oh, well it's the thought that counts. Anyway, he needs his rest so you will have to end your visit."
"Okay doctor, when will he be able to go home?" Kari asked.
"We'll keep him over night for observation and he can go home tomorrow morning."
"Thank you, we'll just say goodbye."
The doctor nodded then walked out.
"Well, it's great that you're alright, I'll see you tomorrow," Joe said.
"Yeah, see you then," Izzy continued.
"I'll keep an eye on Kari for you Tai, just in case she needs a shoulder to cry on," Davis said.
"I guess we'd better go too. I'm see ya later," Matt said.
"Bye Tai, hope that headache eases," Mimi said. The five then walked out.
"I'll call mom and tell her what happened, or what happened," Kari said.
"Thanks, tell her not to worry and that I'm fine. And Kari, thanks for caring so much." Kari smiled.
"I know you'd do the same, and you have. I'll come by later tonight and bring you some real dinner."
"Thanks, you'd better bring something for my gift, I'm sure he'll be hungry."
"Okay, see you tonight then."
"We'll leave you two alone, I'll come by with Kari." T.K. said as they walked out.
"So I guess I'll be going too," Sora said.
"Sora wait," Tai said.
"What is it?"
"When I was hit, I heard you, what you said."
"Oh that, well I…"
"No Sora, I feel the same way. I love you too. I have been for ages, I just couldn't find the right time to tell you."
"Oh Tai," Sora ran over to him. They held each other.
"Tai, I haven't thanked you for what you did. You risked your life to save me. Well thank you."
"Sora, I couldn't have left you. Like I said to Matt, I did what I had to."
"Tai, I'm glad that I have a friend like you."
"I'm more than that Sora." She hugged him again. The doctor came in again, "Young lady, you really have to leave now."
"Of course, sorry. I'll see you first thing tomorrow morning."
"Bye Sora." Tai replied. The doctor escorted her out and Tai was alone, almost.
"A GAG gift, is that the best you could do?" Agumon said a bit insulted.
"SHH! Be quiet, they think you're a toy and you don't talk. And sorry, but you don't really look like something anyone would stuff and sell to be cute and cuddly."
"Well that's okay, you were kinda on the spot."
"It's nice to have you here though."
*******Matt's apartment*******
Matt, Mimi, Gabumon and Palmon walked in and sat in the lounge. They were tired and hungry. Matt's apartment was in its usual state of mess. He had left some dishes on the table in the lounge and a towel in the hall.
"You know when I move in here you'll have to learn to be tidier."
"Yeah, yeah," Matt said disinterestedly, "You want some tea?"
"Sure, I'm surprised you're not having coffee."
"Nah, that'll come later." Matt took out two cups and the milk and sugar. As the kettle was boiling there was silence throughout the apartment. The kettle boiled and Matt finished making the tea. He took it through to Mimi in the lounge. He sat down and took a sip.
"Mimi, what's wrong?"
"What are you talking about, why does something have to be wrong?"
"I can tell you're bothered by something. But if you don't want to talk about it that's fine, just know that I'm always here to listen."
"Matt, I'm scared. I'm really scared."
"Scared of what?"
"Of Helios, that he'll destroy the digital world. You saw what he did to Tai, and Agumon and everyone else was powerless against him."
"Mimi, we've faced worse and come up on top."
"Yes but, he's already started to delete information from the digital world."
"Well, we have daedelous on our side and he should know by now how to stop him, so tomorrow we'll go to Tai, contact daedelous and take Helios down, for good."
"I suppose you're right, I'm still worried."
"Well, how about you just put your head on my shoulder, we'll sit here and I'll play my guitar for you."
"Thanks Matt."
"That's okay, you know I love playing for you," Matt replied as he left the room to get his guitar. He walked back into the room and sat next to Mimi.
"This is a new song I've been writing, it's not finished, but I think you could use the comfort. Matt began playing the song, it was about a guy in love with a girl but he was too shy to say anything and how they got together (A/N Sorry if it's cheesy or crappy and sorry the song isn't included but I'm a fanfic author not a songwriter). Matt played out the last riff and it was silent again. Mimi applauded softly and smiled.
"You know I wrote the song for you."
"So you're the shy guy then."
"Yeah, kinda."
"And I'm the girl he wants."
"I suppose."
"Well, let me know how that works out for him, I think he has a good chance with her."
"Oh really. So he should do something like this," Matt kissed her. their lips locked and he held her tight. They broke off and he whispered in her ear, "Everything is gonna be okay." He moved away from her ear. "Even if it's not, you'll always have me."
"Oh Matt. How are you so sweet all the time."
"I don't know, maybe you bring out the best in me."
I finally found the romance and sorry for my poor knowledge of medical terminology. Sorry it took so long to update, it'll happen weekly from now. Thank you for all the reviews and a special thanks to TaioraCrazedGirl for all the compliments.
"Do something Joe, Do something!"
