1 Candles in the wind

Part two : In too Deep

Ken was the last to get changed. He watched as the other members of his team left the changing rooms and headed to the pizza place. Ken hated his team members, they all lived such meaningless lives. Not like himself, he was going somewhere, and pretty soon he was going to be somebody. He would not let anyone, especially the digidestined get in his way.

Ken felt no remorse for slaying the little brother of the blonde musician. If anything, he felt almost proud. The task would put him in high favour.

He smiled to himself as he put his digivice safely in his pocket. A quick stop home and then he would be off to the Digital World. A place he had big plans for.

Suddenly Ken felt himself being thrown against the wall of the changing rooms. He hit his head on one of the hooks, he felt blood run down his forehead. He turned to see his attacker.

It was him!. Yamato Ishida. TK's brother. He must have come for some kind of pointless revenge. Ken had to keep his cool. He smiled at the blonde who had a murderous look on his face.

"Well, well, Yamato, nice of you to visit me".

"It's not a social call. You killed my brother Ken. I want revenge". Matt growled.

"Really?, and what purpose would that serve?. It wouldn't bring TK back".

"It would get him the justice he deserves. You're a sick bastard Ichijouji. I could fucking kill you". Matt stared darkly.

"You're all talk Ishida. You wouldn't dare. You don't know what you're messing with. What's that saying?..play with fire you get burnt".

"You played with the wrong fire. And for the record this time it's not a bluff". Matt warned.

"Oh really"? Ken challenged. "Then do it Ishida". He muttered.

"What"?

"You heard Ishida, do it. Do it now, kill me". Ken smiled.

Matt refused to meet Ken's gaze anymore. As much as he hated Ken. Matt didn't have it in him to kill. He wasn't like Ken.

"I thought so. You're all talk Ishida, all talk and no action". Ken pushed past Matt and walked out of the changing room.

Matt stayed quiet for a few seconds before slipping to the floor and letting out a heart wrenching sob.

"So Izzy , what happens when you do this upgrade"? Yolei asked watching Izzy as he played around with his laptop. The digidestined had assembled at Tai's house, minus Matt, who hadn't been seen since the football match, and Davis who, as usual, had a detention.

Tai sighed boredly. Izzy and Yolei could talk computers like no other. However, without Davis around, Tai didn't have anyone to share his funny soccer stories with.

"Tai…are you sure Matt's alright?…I mean nobody's seen him" Sora asked concerned.

Tai was about to answer before a knock at the door interrupted him.

"DOOR'S OPEN"! He yelled.

Tai heard the door open then shut, a minute later , a member of Matt's band entered the room.

"Um…Hey,…it's Toshiki isn't it"? Tai asked.

"Gendo actually". Gendo replied. The boy had a black eye.

"What happened there"? Sora asked.

"Matt happened". Gendo replied simply.

"I'll get some ice for that" Kari got up and headed into the kitchen. She came back and gently placed the ice bag over Gendo's eye as he explained.

"I saw him after school, he was coming out of the changing rooms, he'd been pretty quiet at band practice. So when I saw him I decided to ask him what was wrong. Of course, Matt being Matt didn't answer. Then I saw he had this green thing in his hand, he always carries it around with him. I think it belonged to TK. So I asked what he was doing with it. He just stared at me, so I asked him what was wrong again and he told me to keep out of it and then he did this". Gendo indicated his eye.

"Oh shit…" Tai muttered.

"The green thing….TK's digivice right"? Joe asked.

"I should think so, I'd be willing to bet my laptop on that". Izzy replied.

The door slammed and a very flushed Davis ran in.

"TAI TAI TAI"! He yelled.

"What what what"? Tai mocked, despite the seriousness of the situation.

"Matt!..it's Matt!. Heading towards the computer room. He..TK's digivice.." Davis replied breathlessly.

"Oh shit" Tai repeated. He knew what his meant.

"Does that mean……." Cody began.

"He's gone to find Ken". Tai replied sadly.
