MA: well, as I mentioned in chapter 18, it's time.
Max: yes it is.
(Everyone else crying.)
Keke: why does max have to die? Can't you kill someone weak, like ryo?
Ryo: why me?
MA: as much as I was tempted to do, this is more dramatic.
Max: it better be. Ma doesn't own digimon but he did, he would be a frickin' millionaire.
MA: that's right. So grab you hanky and get ready cause this is it. There will be no quotes on this so on with the fic.
D3: THE TRUE THREAT
THE DEATH OF MAX KAMIYA
They say one person can't make a difference but I think that's only half right. Once in a while, a person is born who touches more lives than he believes, thus making a difference. Such is the case of max kamiya. His life hasn't been an easy one; both of his parents killed right before his eyes and most of his life has been a constant battle against the forces of darkness, rarely have a moment of peace or rest to him but he chose to give up his own needs to aid those who can't fight back. Through his battles, he has amazed and inspired many. But now, his time has come, his work is finished, his life is nearing it's end. He done all he can and he can rest.
" A candle often flickers violently before it goes out." Master roshi, dragonball z.
" If this a joke, it's not the least bit funny." Said BW but max didn't seem like he was joking.
" I wish I was. I wish to god I was, but I am dying."
" No! No! You're just hurt real bad. I know that I felt like I was dying after the battle with the warlord." Said Tai.
" I'm sorry but I feel like I'm dying, but this.........I know I dying."
" But how do you know?" asked izzy.
" How do I know? Take a look!" he said as he raised his shirt to everyone. To their shock, the place where max was favoring was phasing in and out, like his body was been deleted.
" I was afraid of this." Said doc.
" Afraid of what?" asked keke.
" The stress of all that digital energy, trying to control all that power and having all that energy from the life bomb, it must have been too much to handle. The digital part of his DNA is unraveling and it's spreading to the organic part. He's literally being torn apart from the inside out."
The news was hard to swallow for the group
" But can't you do anything?" asked Kari.
" I know a lot about digimon and a lot about humans but max is something else. I'm sorry but he's right; he is dying and there is nothing we can do."
The news was hard to swallow for the group
" But can't you do anything?" asked Kari.
" I know a lot about digimon and a lot about humans but max is something else. I'm sorry but he's right; he is dying and there is nothing we can do."
" How long does he have?" wondered shinmon.
" Given the amount degradation, I'd say, a hour at the most."
" Fine. Max, it's time." He said as max weakly rose to his feet.
" I can take you there if you want to." Offered Simms.
" No! I made this decision and I'll do it on my own." He said as he to walk slowly away from everyone.
" Where's he going?" asked sora.
" If any of care about him, follow him and what ever happens, don't help him." Answered Simms as he followed the young man. Keke and BW looked back at the others and with one confirming look, they all began to follow max. As the wind blew over the land and kicking dust into the air, max slowly trudged along, his feet dragging in the dirt. He fell on to the ground, causing keke to try to go to him but shinmon stopped him.
" This is something max wants to do on his own."
Keke looked over to max as he struggled to his feet and keep on walking. It was hard to watch him because max seemed so strong to them but now, he looked weak and sickly which was something that they were not use to. Soon they came to a high mountain and a set of spiraling stairs that circled out it. Max sighed as he began to climb the steps followed by his friends. Max clung to the side of the mountain as the others held back on trying to help him. About half way up, max stopped for seemingly no reason while everyone followed suit. Max's eyes looked as though he couldn't stay awake for anything.
No. Got.........to keep.........going.
He falls on all four and vomited as he continued to go and to everyone's disbelief, the vomit was really blood. Max continued on, as he seemed to be getting weaker by the minute. Finally, max reached the top of the mountain and a hole in the middle of it. Max sat down near it as they stopped as well.
" Ok, we walked all this way so what's the big deal?" asked rika.
" Remember how I told you that we can repair the damage buumon did to the digital universe? This is how; this is the nexus, the very center of digi-verse. It's power, once unleashed, can restore the damage buumon has done by retrieving the data lost."
" You mean..." pikkan said with hope.
" Yes, pikkan. All the planets that were destroyed will be brought back."
" But has that have to do with max?" asked keke.
" Remember I told you that your trip through did more damage than you thought. Well, the nexus can repair the damage to both time and space." Said Simms.
" Again, what does this have to do with max?"
The two of them looked at each other and then to max.
" Tell them."
" To activate the nexus, it must take a tremendous amount of pure energy entered in here."
" So put it in!" said Tai.
" I'm sorry but there is only one place to find should power."
" WHERE?!" They all asked when max got up and turned to them.
" Right here." He said, tapping his chest.
" NO! They're has to be another source!" exclaimed BW.
" So bro. In order for everything we know of to survive, I have to die."
" No, take my energy instead!" demanded Tai.
" Sorry tai. This is my time. It has to be my energy. No one elses."
" But you don't have to!" said tike.
" Sorry, but I have to. I'm gonna be dead in 10 minutes. At least this way, others will live in my place." He said. The mood of the group was now somber as he looked at each of them.
" Max, it's almost time."
" Can I at least say goodbye?"
" Of course my friend."
Max went up to the tamers who seemed to not believe what he was about to do.
" Takato."
" Max, when we first met, I thought you just some crazy man who didn't know what he was getting into. But when I saw you fight, I was in awe at the feats you did. You taught me to follow my heart and it will never lead you wrong. I did and it didn't." said takato.
" You just seemed so strong and commanding but so loving at the same time. It was an inspiration to me." Said rika.
" You taught me that something, you have to fight and when you do, fight hard." Said jeri.
" You taught me that if hope is all you have hold on to, never let it go." Said jeri.
" I know I say this a lot but, you are and always will be, the coolest guy I know." Said kazu.
" Ditto, here." Added kenta.
" Goodbye, gold hair man." Susie said.
" I'm going to miss you." said guilmon.
" Eat some bread for me will ya?"
" What, no momentai?"
" Not this time. Not this time, my friend."
" It was an honor to fight by your side." Said leomon.
" As do I." Added guardromon.
" You will always have a special place in my heart." Said renamon.
" Thanks."
" May your path be peaceful, for you've earned It." said Lopmon.
" Thanks, and takato, when you and rika have kids, name one after me." He said, causing both of them to blush.
Max walked up to pikkan who leaning next to the only tree on the mountain.
" Pikkan, what's up?"
" Max, remember when we first met? I think much of ya at the time; just another weak human looking for a partner. When we fought in the tournament, you lasted longer than most. Your power was unbelievable but I admitted defeat. Over time I learned that not all humans are the same and some are stronger than others." He said looking at jeri.
" You said once that you were like most humans. Well if humans were like you, they might have a chance." He said as he extended his hand.
" Good luck with you know what."
" Remember, we still have a match to fight."
Max went over to Kari, TK, matt, and Mimi.
" Well, I should thank you. If you and the others hadn't come, I'd still be dating sora."
" Hey!"
" Sorry. I mean, just want to thank you for setting me on the right path."
" Me too." She said as she hugged him while he shook matt's hand."
" People call me the angel of hope but you're the angel of life. Thanks, man."
" I'm gonna miss you. That's all I have to say." Kari said as he embraced him with tears in her eyes.
" I'm gonna miss you too.........aunt Kari."
Max came up to the twins and David.
" Why do you have to go?" said tike.
" Yeah, can't you stay a little long?" said kara.
" Sorry. I have to go."
" I understand." Said David.
" Everyone has to die sometime but really, I would've preferred that you lived a little longer so that I could get to know you. My dad said your father was the great leader of all time but I disagree since you are. You will be missed." David said, shaking his hand.
" Thanks."
" We don't want you to go!" the twins said as they hugged him while sobbing.
" I'm sorry but I have to. I want you both to be as strong as you can be. And tike?" he said as he remove his brown jacket.
" Take it. To remember me by."
" I will." He said, taking it into his grasp.
Next he went up to Tai and sora.
" Who would've thought it? I been through a lot but I never thought I would fighting along side my future son. I know you think of me as your father but I'd like to think of you as a son I'm proud to call my own."
" Where ever you go, we just want you to know that we both love you." she said, planting a small kiss on the cheek.
" Same here." He said rubbing the spot.
Sam was up next to say his goodbyes.
" Well it looks like the end of the road, buddy."
" Yep."
" We've been friend since diapers and we've been through a lot so I guess this is it."
" Right."
" I gotta say man, it's been one hell of a ride." He said, as they shook hands.
" If you meet a fine girl in the after life, send her my way."
" I'll hook you up."
Next came max's brother.
" When we first met, I was a machine of destruction. I thought the heart was just a wall blocking progress as a fighter. But after our fight, you show me how to fight with all you have, including your heart. I respected you at first but soon it turned into love for a brother. When I was given a chance to fight with you again, I jumped at the chance and it was a pleasure to fight with you." he said extending his hand but soon the brothers were in a tight hug.
" I'll miss you, little brother."
" I'll miss you too, big brother."
Finally came hardest good-bye.
" I know you have to do this but I hate it. I hate you for what you have to do but I love you a hundred times more because it's who you are." She said, both now in tears.
" No matter what I have to go through, I'll find a way back to you. If I don't, I'll always be in your heart. I love you, now and forever." He said as they shared their last, most passionate kiss, both of their tears becoming one.
" Max it's time." Said Simms. He gave her one last hug and walked towards the hole.
" Max, I've watched you grow and mature as a man and I am very proud of the person you've became."
" Thanks Simms."
" Well this thing is pretty much useless." Rika said as she held up a CD player.
" What is that for?" asked takato.
" I grabbed it before we left. I thought we needed it for a party. Well there is one thing I can do with it." She said as she pulled out a CD, put it in and pressed play, just as max reached the edge.
I am so high
I can hear heaven
Max turned at the music and looked at everyone.
I am so high
I can hear heaven
Suddenly, memories of max flood all of their heads.
Whoa but heaven
No heaven don't hear me
The destined remember when they first met max and the d3s, their first fight, the first time they magna digivolved.
And they say that a hero can save us
I'm not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold on to the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away
The fight between black Wargreymon, the battle in File Island, the time max almost died, when max told them of the origins of the d3s.
Some one told me
Love would all save us.
The gauntlet match, max becoming an ascendant for the first time, max's training in the time room.
But how can that be?
Look what love gave us
The first battles of digigeddon, max taking on the warlord, max going beyond ascendant after blackWargreymon died, the final fight with the warlord.
A world full of
Killing and blood spilling
That world never came
Max uses the life bomb, his hilarious healing at the hands of dr. kido, the song he preformed with the teenage wolves.
And they say that a hero can save us
I'm not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold on to the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away
The tamers and the others began to remember; the tournament where pikkan fought him, his first fight with them, when he brought leomon back, the fight with beelzemon and zhuchialmon.
Now that the isn't ending
It love that I'm sending to you
The rescue of calumon, max saving Susie, his battle with d-reaper, him and gojiramon becoming Gundamon, the time he nearly died again.
Is it the love of a hero
And that's why I fear it won't do
They all remember the return of max, the attack on sorcerermon's ship, his fights with yakamon and beelzemon, turning into an ascendant 3 for the first time.
And they say that a hero can save us
I'm not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold on to the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away
The training with the twins, his return from central planet, the forming of bax, the adventure in buumon.
And they're watching us (watching us)
They're watching us (watching us)
As we all fly away
The escape from buumon, the battle with buumon to the finish.
And they're watching us (watching us)
They're watching us (watching us)
As we all fly away
And they're watching us (watching us)
They're watching us (watching us)
As we all fly away
Whooooaaaaaaa!
Up to now, the moment of true. Max was now crying openly but he still had a smile on his face.
" Thanks. I just want to tell you all.....................that I love you all and far as I'm concerned, you............are...............all...............my family."
With that, he looked into the hole with the nexus energy at the bottom and slowly fell over the side. To him, it seemed like it going in slow motion but then he heard a strange voice.
Max?
Max?
Into his view, came the cloaked figures of his mother and father.
Mom? Dad? That you?
Yes, son. It's us.
Did you see what I did?
Yes, we did and we are proud of you.
Max felt himself get younger, first to the age of 12.
How do you feel?
Tired. So very tired.
Next he turned to the age of 8.
Then rest, my sweet boy.
Rest. Your work is over.
Good.
Then he tuned the age of 4.
So tried.
I.........think.........should.........like to rest.........now.
With that, he turned into an infant and fell into the arms of his mother, who hugged him only like a mother could. In reality, max had his eyes closed as he fell into the nexus and soon the light absorbed his body. Just as it did, the nexus began to erupt and swirled around like a turbulent sea. The energy shot up and out of the hole and into the sky. From above the planet, five more pillars shot out of the planet and spread all over the digi-verse. As for the group there was not a dry eye in any of them as they watched max's legacy. Else where, the sovereigns all began to cry as they felt max, a human, give his life for them. Meanwhile, every one max ever met, digimon and human, on the tamers' world and digidestined's, began to sob as they felt the sorrow of his demise.
HERE LIES MAX TAJIRI KAMIYA; SON, BROTHER, FRIEND, PARTNER, LOVER, AND HERO.
HE GAVE HIS LIFE SO MANY MORE WILL LIVE.
NEXT TIME: the group says their goodbyes.

The rescue of calumon, max saving Susie, his battle with d-reaper, him and gojiramon becoming Gundamon, the time he nearly died again.
Is it the love of a hero
And that's why I fear it won't do
They all remember the return of max, the attack on sorcerermon's ship, his fights with yakamon and beelzemon, turning into an ascendant 3 for the first time.
And they say that a hero can save us
I'm not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold on to the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away
The training with the twins, his return from central planet, the forming of bax, the adventure in buumon.
And they're watching us (watching us)
They're watching us (watching us)
As we all fly away
The escape from buumon, the battle with buumon to the finish.
And they're watching us (watching us)
They're watching us (watching us)
As we all fly away
And they're watching us (watching us)
They're watching us (watching us)
As we all fly away
Whooooaaaaaaa!
Up to now, the moment of true. Max was now crying openly but he still had a smile on his face.
" Thanks. I just want to tell you all.....................that I love you all and far as I'm concerned, you............are...............all...............my family."
With that, he looked into the hole with the nexus energy at the bottom and slowly fell over the side. To him, it seemed like it going in slow motion but then he heard a strange voice.
Max?
Max?
Into his view, came the cloaked figures of his mother and father.
Mom? Dad? That you?
Yes, son. It's us.
Did you see what I did?
Yes, we did and we are proud of you.
Max felt himself get younger, first to the age of 12.
How do you feel?
Tired. So very tired.
Next he turned to the age of 8.
Then rest, my sweet boy.
Rest. Your work is over.
Good.
Then he tuned the age of 4.
So tried.
I.........think.........should.........like to rest.........now.
With that, he turned into an infant and fell into the arms of his mother, who hugged him only like a mother could. In reality, max had his eyes closed as he fell into the nexus and soon the light absorbed his body. Just as it did, the nexus began to erupt and swirled around like a turbulent sea. The energy shot up and out of the hole and into the sky. From above the planet, five more pillars shot out of the planet and spread all over the digi-verse. As for the group there was not a dry eye in any of them as they watched max's legacy. Else where, the sovereigns all began to cry as they felt max, a human, give his life for them. Meanwhile, every one max ever met, digimon and human, on the tamers' world and digidestined's, began to sob as they felt the sorrow of his demise.
HERE LIES MAX TAJIRI KAMIYA; SON, BROTHER, FRIEND, PARTNER, LOVER, AND HERO.
