1 Trials & Tribulations
Well, Daisuke was not too happy about Takeru and Hikari getting together, but it always was like this in love-triangles, one won, one lost. It was then he saw the same pain in Sora's eyes. Then it hit him, she liked Taichi! It seemed that ever since Taichi had gotten that major haircut, girls had started swarming for him. Girls started asking him out, all the time! Taichi had been so kind, about saying no, which made more girls fall for his charms. Davis was an other case. Girls started to scorn him, because he was too rough on them.
Riana looked at the others, they couldn't see her, because she had done some Magic draped over her. She looked at her best friend, who was holding the hand of a brown hared boy that looked O.K., but then she saw a cute boy amongst them. That was when she decided to show herself.
While they were walking away from Genaii's house, Kate just happened to look that way, when Riana materialized out of thin air. She said, "Hi, Riana." Taichi looked over, then asked Kate, "Is she your friend?" "Yeah, we met over Internet, then my parents decided to go to America, so I could meet her in person. Her names Riana." Taichi turned to Riana and said, "Nice to meet you Riana, any friend of Kate's is my friend. I'm Taichi, that's Daisuke,…" He went into introducing all of them. Afterwards Kate said, "Oh, me and Taichi are together. He's the best human on either worlds.sigh" Then Taichi kissed her, as to establish the fact. Riana said telepathically to Taichi, 'You knew I was there, why didn't you tell the others?' 'There was no need to, besides they're still getting used to the fact, that these powers of mine surfaced through my hidden crest. Say, do you have two Crests already?' 'Yeah, they appeared at the same time my Digivice did.' 'Where's your Digimon?' 'I don't know.' Then Koushiro looked up from his laptop, to say, "Genaii said there was a new Digidestined from America. Oh, I guess that's her." Taichi clapped his hands, "Bravo, Koushiro. You're starting to see that there is a other world other then your computer." The others laughed, and Koushiro blushed. Mimi thought, 'He's cute when he's embarrassed.' Then Taichi telepathically said to her, 'Tell him that you like as more than a friend.' 'But…' 'If you don't I will. He must know! Maybe he'll leave that computer alone then.' 'O–O.K.' Riana told Taichi, "That was not necessary." Kate looked back and forth, sweatdropped and said, "Did I miss something?" "Yeah, you did. I was talking to Mimi about Koushiro. Trying to get them together." "Oh, I don't think I'll ever get used to your new abilities." Taichi turned, and saw how the younger Digidestined were dragging their feet. "Let's take a break. Mimi, you and Koushiro gather wood. Joe, you and Matt go fishing. The younger ones stay here, and the other older ones look for food. With that all departed to do their chores.
Mimi and Koushiro, were gathering wood, thankful for the time alone Taichi had given them. When they almost had enough wood, Mimi stopped and said, "Koushiro, I promised Taichi to tell you, I like you as more than a friend. I– I love you." Mimi was surprised by what Koushiro did next, he bent down and kissed her. She dropped the wood she was carrying in surprise. Palmon rescued them in the last second from the nastiness of wood falling on your feet. When their lips parted, Koushiro said, "Mimi, I love you too." Then they gathered up the wood, finished the job, then went back to camp, only to see all the other couples making out (Taichi & Kate, Takeru & Hikari). So they decided to start making out too. The others stared, and Taichi whispered, "Done. Now for Sora and Yamato." Kate looked at him curious. He winked and started to make out with her again. She went back to it too wondering, when Taichi started to like playing matchmaker.
In the next morning the group walked on. They had to find MegaDemon. They had to repay him for what he did to Taichi. Taichi said, "I'll fly ahead and check out the landscape. No," he said as Kate went over to him, "I'm not letting you come with Kate. It might be too dangerous. Besides, I don't think I'll be able to carry two." He kissed her, released the energy, spread his wings and was off. From above the tree tops he looked around. Then he heard MegaDemon's voice, "I've been waiting for an other chance to get you Taichi. Taichi spun around looking for the source of the voice. "Where are you?!" ,he asked with a panicked voice. "I am everywhere. I have taken your beloved Kate, and the only way for you to save her life, is to obey me. I will come and get you. The air around him bubbled with energy, and MegaDemon appeared with an unconscious Kate slung over his shoulder. "If you put her down safely I will obey you." So MegaDemon lowered Kate with great carefulness. When done, he gave Taichi something to drink. "Here, drink this." Taichi obediently drank the goblet. Then he changed. His eyes went red and he got more muscular. The evil gained control of him. Taichi turned to MegaDemon and asked, "What may I do lord?" "Get the girl with your powers." "Yes, Master." Taichi took the girl, and picked her up so fast, that she was a blur. But she didn't wake up. MegaDemon thought, 'I have to keep him on that potion, he's already almost as strong as me. Hmmm, maybe I should teach him Magic, he seems to have the talent. In fact, he has more of a talent than any one or thing I've ever met, and I've been here ever since the beginning of the Digiworld. Come to think of it, his ancestors were also Magidestined.' Then he told Taichi as soon as they got to his stronghold, "I have to tell you the history of this world, and of your ancestors. In fact the first Digidestined, we called them Magidestined, were all Magic users. Two of them married, and in time they thought that their gift had not been passed on, this was obviously not true. They had looked into the future to see if any of the children of theirs would some day have a magic user in the family again. They found out that it would be when magic users had almost died out. This child would have the power of both of them together. Your this child. Hikari, your sister took after your mom, so she only got a touch of it, you see the magic users were from your fathers side. Back then, the Digiworld was called the Magiworld. The other of the first Digidestined never got married. Then computers came along, and the Magiworld became Digital, but the Magimon, that had lived there before disappeared. They still existed in hiding though. I was the first from the Magimon to come out after that happened and I want to take over the Digiworld now, so that my people can come out of their hiding places and be free again. But for that I have to get rid of the Digidestined. I have decided however, to keep the Magic wielding Digidestined alive. They have to bread so that there will be more Magic users again. You'll be able to help me, will you? I want you to decide without the potion so that I know your own will. I will quickly take the affect away from you. He made Kate disappear then released the effect. He then asked Taichi, "So what do you think?" "I think you have a point, but do you want the Digimon to go though the same thing as you did? If you did that, you wouldn't be any better than them. We have to find a different way, like having the Magimon live on File Island, and the Digimon have the Continent. Or you could have a border for separating the two countries, and be allies. That way you could both join together to defeat the enemies. So if evil Digimon or Magimon tried to take over the world, both sides could join and defeat the enemy together. That way both sides would be happy, and better off than now." Magimon was impressed. The Idea was better. "But one thing, we should have a high king. I think we should choose one of the magic users of the Digidestined. That means either you or Riana, and I don't think Riana would be very good at the position. Besides your ancestors told me if I ever had to choose which of the Digidestined I should choose for a big thing, I was supposed to choose you. I think they meant this. So will you?" "I will if it needs to be done. But someday I'll die, what will you do then?" "You won't. The Magimon will weave a spell around you. If you want we can also put the same spell on Kate, the one you love. That way you two can stay together for ever." "I would have to ask her first. Could you transport her here?" "Fine, but she hasn't woken up yet." "I'll take care of that. I have my hidden crest." "O.K." Kate appeared, and Taichi pointed his hidden crest at her, and her eyes fluttered open. "Taichi!" Then she saw MegaDemon. "What is he doing here?" Taichi looked seriously at her and said, "Kate, I must ask you something. Would you mind staying here in the Digiworld with me? We would live for ever, but watch our family and friends wither and die. I know that I have to stay here to govern the Digiworld, but it's your choice if you stay here with me or not. The Digimon and Magimon will both choose three representatives for the vote. That way all the types of Digimon, and the same amount of Magimon can vote. If most of them vote for two countries and me High King, then it will be that way. It's my destiny, I can feel it. I understand if you don't want to stay here, what you would have to leave behind and all,..." He was interrupted by her kissing him. She then said, "Yes, I would leave a lot behind, but not as much as I would leave behind if I didn't stay here with you."
A month later, the Digimon and Magimon had chosen three representatives, and they were ready to vote. The Digimon were Leomon, Piximon and Ogremon. The Magimon were MegaDemon, Sorcermon and Paladinmon. Taichi gave his speech, and all of them thought it was a good idea. So the Magimon wove the spell around the two.
One week later the other Digidestined had found them just in time to watch the crowning ceremony. When they asked what Taichi and Kate were being crowned for, the Digimon and (although they didn't know it) Magimon told them, and they were stunned. 'Taichi a KING?!' they all thought in unison. Then they were told that Taichi and Kate would be allowed to have visitors afterwards. So they decided to try to see them again afterwards. Then they found out that a Wedding was planed in the next two years. It would be an even bigger party then, then now. The Digidestined were shocked to their roots. Everything was just going too fast! It had taken them over a month to find this place, where they were scarred to death, because they saw MegaDemon take Kate and Taichi with him. Then they come here and find Taichi becoming a King, and going to get married soon. He had even somehow managed to get his parents there. Hikari went to her parents. When Hikari came over, they hugged her, then continued watching. Koushiro put his arm over Mimi's shoulder. Takeru went over to Hikari and draped his arm over her shoulder as well. Yamato thought, 'What the hell.' Then hugged Sora. Sora then thought, 'Well this has bean going on too long. I don't think it's lashback.' So she just snuggled up to him. Yamato was surprised but then let himself just enjoy it. Riana looked at Daisuke. He was so sad. It was depressing to even watch him. So she didn't. Taichi felt that the other Digidestined were there and his tension eased a bit. He had just taken his vows to protect the Digiworld no matter what. The Magimon were going to make him enchanted weapons to use, and the Digimon would design his home, and start farming new crops, that were brought from the real world. His friends and family could now go back and forth as often as they wanted, only Taichi had to stay there. Kate could go back and forth too, but she was restricted to a certain time period. That way she could finish school. Koushiro would teach Taichi, instead of a teacher. Mimi (of course) insisted that she would do the planing for their marriage when it happened. They allowed her to, since she would anyway. Her parents let her marry at such a young age, because they thought Taichi was a charming young man, and because their daughter threatened to elope. They did want to watch her marry though, so they let her marry, when she was seventeen. So one year after being crowned they got married. Hikari was the flower girl, Yamato their best man and Takeru the ring bearer. Ogremon acted the priest. All their friends and relatives had gotten in front of their computers that day, to be sucked in, and brought to the Wedding. Taichi and Kate's Wedding was the first in the history of the Digiworld. The Digimon and Magimon and Rulers decided that they would call this year, year one. Before they hadn't counted the Years before. Since the Digiworld was a shadow world of the earth they kept the same length of a day, week, and so on. So the new age began. Taichi began to rule the Digiworld, his wisdom growing every day. A few years later, Joe came to the Digiworld to help Kate give birth to her first child. It ended up being a boy, and she insisted upon calling him Patrick. It was her family's tradition. Taichi agreed, and even went as far as to say that it was a very nice name. On St. Patrick's day, although they were in the Digiworld, she wore green. This told Taichi that she was catholic. He had asked Koushiro to teach him about the Irish. That way he wouldn't miss anything, when his wife was talking about her homeland. So he now knew almost as much about Ireland as a native. Hikari and Takeru had decided to marry as soon as they were done with collage. Mimi and Koushiro, and Sora and Yamato were going to do a double Wedding in the Digiworld. That was so that Kate and Taichi could participate. Taichi looked a lot like a King, serious, but kind, ruthless, but forgiving. His sword swung at his hip. Kate had a bow and quiver slung over her shoulder, that the Magimon had made for her. Their heads were decorated with bejeweled crowns. They stood erect, and now Kate kept a bundle in her arms. The one thing they were persistent on not wearing any robes. Neither of them could stand something that unpractical. Yes, Kate wore dresses some times, but only for special occasions. Like the Weddings. By now anyone who wanted, could enter the Digiworld. Yamato and Sora were going to have a baby in eight months, so they were getting married on that day. Mimi and Koushiro were just tired of waiting to be out of Collage. It was only a year still, so they thought they could just go ahead. It wasn't like they couldn't continue going to school.
For a long time there was no trouble, everyone loved the royal family. But as the saying goes, all is quiet before the storm.
