Low on Time
Tai paced the area of the crevasse. "How deep is it?" "Don't know, Tai." Agumon replied. "Can anyone check?" "Greetings, did I miss anything?" "Tentomon! Am I glad to see you! Go down and check the depth of the crevasse." "Why in the world would you want me to do that?" "Just do it, okay!" Tai growled. "Okay, okay. Don't lose your composure. I'm going now." Tentomon disappeared into the darkness and they heard him call up. "Well, I found a pretty beat up digimon. Is it alive?" They heard Tentomon shout, "I'll bring it up." Tentomon reappeared with Rotamon.
Tai scooped up the cat. "Is she alive?" "Yes, barely. I found her and it looks like she was attacked." "Tai?" Colliemon broke the silence. "Yeah?" "What's really wrong with Kora? She would've come. What happened?" "I can't tell you. I'm going now. I'll take Rotamon with me." Tai ran for the portal and was transported back to his home. He quickly jotted a note and ran for the hospital.
He skidded inside. "Hey, no pets allowed...Wait, come back here!" Tai ran down the hall and entered the room. Sora, Kari, Davis, T.K., Kara, and Izzy were gathered solemnly. Tai laid Rotamon on the bed and grimaced. This was the first time he actually looked at Rotamon. "What happened?" Sora asked. "I dunno. I found her like this. How's Kora?" "The same. She's so fragile and well...I just can't stand to see her like this. Remember what Gennai told us about Kora's three digimon and Kora's main weakness?" Tai remembered clearly. If one of Kora's digimon was ever in the least bit of agony or pain, Kora had a certain power. A very draining power that only she possessed. She could give her last breath for her digimon to live. "She's in no condition to give her energy away. Can you imagine what could happen if she gave her energy to heal Rotamon?" Sora questioned. Tai shuddered at the thought.
He strode towards Kora and smoothed the hair out of her eyes. He observed how she looked. Her body looked so fragile and broken. Her chest rose unsteadily and heaved down at each breath. Tai shook his head. Sora came up behind him and suggested they sent Kari home with Davis and T.K. Tai agreed to it and Kari left quite reluctantly with Davis and T.K. Tai suggested until their parents returned that Davis stay with Kari. Davis agreed and they departed soon after. "Tai, I think we should see what we can do to treat Rotamon." "I know. Izzy, look up any remedies for burns." Izzy nodded and logged onto the digital network. He was able to analyze the burns and found that Fire Force had a chemical that was considered toxic and poisonous. If the burns weren't treated within 24 hours, Rotamon would surely die within the next 24 hours. Tai ran his fingers through his hair. "We're so short on time. We have less than 24 hours to save Rotamon or Kora will die in the process." "That's not all." Izzy murmured. "What?!" Tai asked sharply. "It says that this can only be healed with another life force. That means we either need data from other digimon or another life force." Kara sobbed again and Izzy hugged her and whispered soft words of comfort.
Tai couldn't take this anymore. It was too hard. "Can I give up?" Tai asked. "What?" Sora questioned, looking at him. "I never heard you want to give up! Tai, you're not a quitter and won't ever be. I won't let you give up." "What is there to do, Sora? It's not like we can give Kora our blood to restore her strength." Tai began to cry again. "I never cried so much in my life." "Me neither. It's okay to cry." Tai shrugged. He sat down in a chair and Sora sat next to him. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.
As he dreamt, he saw Kora. She was sitting in a heavenly garden with soft, white, angel wings out of her back, right below her shoulder blades. "Kora, what can I do?" The girl walked towards him as if she was floating. "Taichi, look at me." He lifted his head after hearing his full name. "Yeah?" "I'm telling you that I'm planning on leaving you." "No, you can't." "I must. I'm very sorry to have to leave you like this. But it's my duty." "No. You aren't responsible for everyone. You've got to fight it. You've got to stay with us. With me." "Something's been eating away at me for a long time now, Tai. It's evil and now, it's winning."
Kora's eyes filled with tears. "I'm sorry, Tai. I don't want to leave you." Tai's eyes were filling with tears. "You can't fight anymore?" Tai asked meekly. Kora shook her head. "Now, do me a favor?" "Anything." "Just cry. It's okay." Kora said softly. Tai looked at the girl who had suffered and hurt more than anyone he knew. "You never cry." Tai said. "Cry and let yourself go. I'm right here." Tai knelt in the grass and Kora knelt next to him. She hesitantly wrapped her arms around him as tears crept down his cheeks, stinging and burning as they went along. Tai barely whimpered at first but after a little bit, his sobs were screaming moans and howls. Kora just rocked him gently and finally his sobs became quiet and finally he had his head leaning on her shoulder and only a few tears remained. Kora smiled. "Feel better?" "Yes, much better." Tai mumbled. "I wish you could stay. I wish you could stay and you'd never go. I won't lose you. Not without a fight." Tai said softly. "I know."
"Tai?" Tai's eyes opened slowly. "Yeah, Sora?" "You sleep well?" "Yeah. Kora's gonna die." He blurted. "What?" "I spoke to Kora. She said she's gonna die." Sora's hand flew to her mouth, trying to hide her horrified expression. "Something about an evil force. I know she can fight. She just needs to know she can fight it." "Well, Izzy said he's gonna let his laptop download enough data to restore Rotamon. So, one problem is solved." "But in enough time?" "I hope so. Now, what to do about Kora?" "Do you think we can use our crest power?" "In what way?" "I know our crests and digivices are enough to do something. Even if it can't destroy this thing, it can at least get it away from Kora and then we can focus on an attack plan." "Well, whatever you come up with will work. I know it will." "I'm glad you've got faith in me. Kora does too. I just know it. First thing is first, save Rotamon and meanwhile we'll be working on a plan to get rid of this thing. Got me?" "Got it."
An email appeared on Izzy's computer. "It's from Gennai." Tai read it quickly. "There's enough power to save Rotamon. The power will be transmitted. Just put Rotamon in front of the screen and press 'OK' is what Gennai said." "Okay." Sora laid Rotamon in front of the screen and Tai clicked 'OK.' A bright light flooded out of the computer and seemed to fill Rotamon. Her fur looked its normal blue color without burns and marks. "You're normal again." Tai grinned as Rotamon rose slowly. Tai typed a quick thank you and he turned to Rotamon. "How do you feel?" "Refreshed. How's Kora? She visited me in a dream when I was out." "We're working on saving her. Don't worry. Now, we're gonna send you to DigiWorld." Tai explained. "Well, you know where to get help if you need it. Bye!" Rotamon called as she departed and returned to her home.
Tai grinned. "Now if only saving Kora was that easy." Tai murmured.
