(I don't own Digimon)
As the bright sun sprang up on the horizon, so did all of the digidestined. Tai was the first one of the group awake. As he opened his eyes he noticed a sleeping Sora resting her head on his chest. Her slim figure curled next to his. He had his arms around her waist. He just laid there, enjoying the moment, but soon everyone was awake, except Sora, who as still in Tai's arms. The rest of the group packed up and were ready to head out for another days journey. Carefully Tai slipped out from underneath the slumbering Sora, trying not to wake her.
"You guys ready?" He asked the group who had just finished eating a while before.
"Should we wake her?" Mimi inquired as she knelt down next to the sleeping girl. "She looks so free and happy."
"No, I'll carry her till she wakes up, she has got to be exhausted." Tai picked her up. She naturally fit in his arms; her face had nuzzled into his chest. "Ok, let's go." And with that, the group set out once again.
No one really said anything until they stopped for a break around noon. Just before Tai was going to set Sora in the shade, her eyes fluttered open.
"Oh did I wake you." Tai apologized. "You've been asleep all day so far, sleepyhead." He beamed a large smile at her as he placed her tenderly on the ground. She moaned a little as she stretched, and rubbed her eyes.
"What happened last night?" she asked softly
"Well, we don't exactly know. I had hoped you would remember." Tai said. He was rubbing her hands, "How do you feel?"
"My head hurts, but that's all." she tried to stand up, but lost her balance and fell back down.
"No, maybe you should take it easy for a while yet." Tai held her down.
"No! I want to get up." She whined determined to get up. So Tai gave in and steadied her as she stood on her own two legs. She stretched once again. "Is there anything to eat, I'm starving?"
"Here you go." Ken handed her a sandwich. "It's all we got at the moment, but it's PB & J."
"Umm. My favorite." she muffled with her mouth full. She started to walk around while she ate her sandwich. A few feet from their resting spot was a lake. She walked causally down to it. She took off her shoes and walked into the water. She splashed the cool fresh water on her face. She was now fully awake and reenergized. She returned to her friends, who were sitting in the shade of a great big tree. Her bare feet felt good on the warm grass.
No one said anything as she slowly walked over to Byiomon and picked her up.
"I told you, I knew you could do it." She grinned at digimon partner.
"No Sora, you helped too."
"Ya, I did, didn't I? We still make a great team." Both human and digimon began to laugh. "Well guys, shall we go? We need to keep moving. Hopefully we can get there before tomorrow night. I don't know what's going to happen, but I have a feeling something big is coming."
"Alright then, onward." Tai commanded as he jumped to his feet. "You heard the lady- move out!" Everyone groaned as they got to their feet once again. Sora walked in front of the group holding her crystal in her hand. Tai walked faithfully at her side. "So is your headache gone yet?" Tai asked breaking the silence. Sora didn't answer. "Sora?"
"Oh, What?" She said. "Sorry. I was off in you own little world. My headache? Oh it's gone now, I'm fine." She said as she leaned over and slipped him a quick kiss. She was smiling now. "Please don't worry about me. I'll be fine."
Tai looked at her. "How can I not worry about you?"
"Everything will work out ok, I promise." Her eyes looked sad. "Oh, I got my memory back."
"That's good, what do you remember happening?" Tai questioned.
"Yes, please tell us," Izzy inquired. "Can you control those power surges? Or are they spontaneous?"
"Well, I remember being surrounded by this eternal darkness, until my gem's light broke a hole in it. I then saw Deamon, and this terrifying shadow creature in the distance. Somehow I was able to help byiomon warp digivolve. Then you guys came and were in trouble. I don't understand this myself, but it was like a part of my soul came out and formed a shield for you. It didn't really hurt that much.. But."
"Wait a minute." Tai interrupted her. "You get hurt when you do this?"
"The pain was only there for a little while, but when that last surge of energy came it drained me of everything. Like apiece of my soul left me and didn't come back. I don't know how to explain it." Sora continued, once again grasping at her gem.
"It was awesome!" Davis commented. "You totally kicked Daemon's ass in! You are like super girl or something. Cool!"
"No, not cool." Tai spoke up. "Sora, what do you mean a piece of your soul left?"
"Yes, I am quite concerned at this revelation. It might be harmful to you, if you keep doing this." Izzy said in a concerned tone.
"It's ok guys. I'm fine." Sora protested.
"But look how long it took you to recover. We thought you were going to have a heart attack there." Tai uttered. "Sora." he stopped and took her hand, she paused. The others stopped as well. "Please, promise you will Never do that again."
"But Tai. I can't say that." She said. "You are just going to have to trust me. I mean soon I'll have to…" She stopped. She knew some of what the future held, but she was afraid to tell the others what they were in store for.
"What? I know you are not telling me everything." Tai said, a little mad. "I don't want you to get hurt, none of us want you to get hurt."
"Tai, I think we need to trust Sora. She knows what she can handle, and she'll ask for help when she needs it." Matt said as he stepped closer to Sora putting a hand on her shoulder.
"Thank you Matt, I'm glad you believe in me." She looked back at Tai. "Why can't you be more like Matt, and believe in me?"
"Oh so now you want me to be more like Matt?" Tai was getting madder. "Well if you like Matt so much why don't you date him then." Sora looked confused.
"Tai, I never said that. I just want you to know I want to do this." Her eyes began to well up with tears because of the uncaring expression on Tai's face.
"Well fine then, Ms. Super Woman go and do what ever you need to do then. See if I care." Tai gave her a cold shoulder.
"Tai, please." The tears began to come out. "Don't be like this. I need your help."
"No you don't, you seem to have Matt's help here. I don't care what you do, so just go away." No one knew what to do, let alone how this fight had started.
"Come on you guys." Matt tried to get Tai to loosen up. Sora was getting mad now.
"Tai? Is that how you truly feel?" She sobbed.
Tai didn't answer. Sora's heart sunk.
"Alright then," she was trying to stop crying. "I'm going then." And with that she took off running and soon was out of sight. Her gem was glowing once again.
"Sora!" Kari yelled as she tried to run after her. "NO! Come back." Now she started crying. "Tai!" She was now screaming at him. "What the hell was that about?" Mimi came to her side to comfort her.
"Good one Tai." Matt said coldly. "Just tear her heart out over the dumbest things."
Tai ran over and punched Matt. "Shut Up!" He screamed in a rage. It took TK, Davis and Joe to restrain him. All of a sudden Tai burst out into a river of tears realizing she had left. "What did I just do?" he wailed. "Sora." he bawled. "Come back."
"It's to late she's out of range to track her by using the digivices." Izzy said. "But I am putting another distress signal to Gennai, maybe he will know where she is."
"Why didn't anyone stop me from being such an idiot?" Tai wailed, "Now I've lost her again." By now Tai was on his knees.
"Get a grip Tai." Mimi said as she pulled him up and slapped him. "Sora will be back. She always manages to forgive you for all those heartless things you do to her."
"Hey, Gennai just emailed me. He says that we shouldn't worry. Because we will meet up with her tomorrow." Izzy said cheerfully. "Hey that's good news, come on and cheer up."
"Ya, besides Sora's strong and she'll be back here in no time at all. So let's get going." Matt sighed. So they continued o their journey.
Meanwhile-
Sora finally got the rage and anger out of her system. She slowly began to stop running. "Stupid Tai." she said, wiping the last of the tears from her checks. "I wish he'd make up his stupid mind." She began to gradually walk. "What do I do now, I'm all alone. Hey, I can do this. Stupid Tai. He's right I don't need him anymore." She looked at the sun; it was about to set. "Well looks like I'm on my own tonight." It'll be easier this way, she thought. I won't have to worry about them. And him. She curled up underneath a tree. Already she could feel the darkness getting stronger.
I hope you are enjoying this- it has it good points really it does- so keep going! R/R PLEASE!
