Chapter Eleven
Disclaimer: Second verse same as the first- or the last eleven
"Tai. Wake up. Tai." A voice said as it began to shake him.
"Sora?" He asked not sure who was waking him in the middle of the night. He sat up.
"No, it's me Biyomon." She said. "Sora's in trouble. I can feel it." Tai instantly got up when Byiomon uttered her name.
"Where is she? Can you find her?"
"I can sense her, she's not too far."
"Alright- take me to her, please. It's all my fault." He remembered the events of just a few hours ago. How could a stupid argument turn into a fight where he told her he hated her? Tai and Biyomon quietly woke up Agumon and snuck out of camp. Agumon digivolved into Greymon and they were off. Tai clutched biyomon as they rode on greymon's back. 'Hang on Sora,' he thought.
Once again Sora awoke in a cold sweat. But this time there was no one to comfort her.
This darkness is growing,' she thought. 'I can feel it.' She turned around and her gem started to glow. 'They are near.'
"All by yourself are we?" the shadowy figure said coyly, it wasn't Daemon this time, but a more evil figure.
"Yes, but I can still kick your butt."
"Ah. See I don't want to fight. Fighting isn't my style."
"Then what is?"
"I prefer to talk." The shadow moved closer. "You are quite powerful." Sora could feel something touch her hair.
"Get back or else!" She demanded.
"I'm sorry. I am just curious. I have never seen a digimon like you before."
"That's because I'm not one."
"Really? Than what are you?"
"I'm human."
"Human? Even better. For I am in need of someone like you."
"Sorry, not interested."
"That's a shame, you never heard what you get in return."
"Still not interested, besides you're the thing causing all this trouble in the first place. I'm here to stop you."
"Ahhh.. What a pity. We could have been a great and unstoppable team." Something wrapped around Sora's waist. The coldness made her shiver. "You know it would be a lot less painful if you freely joined my side. Because now I will have to do things the hard way."
"I don't think so!" Sora shot a beam of light at the creature- causing it to drop her. "Let's finish this." She said.
"Ladies first." The shadow insisted.
Sora felt the energy rising from within her. And released a huge single blow. The effect was a light brighter than the sun, and it sent a shock wave all across the digital world.
The force of the wave caused the ground to shake. It sent Tai, and Biyomon flying from Greymon's back while he dedigivolved. The wave also woke up all the dig destined.
"Damn it Agumon," Tai said as he saw his digimon. "I guess we have to go the rest of the way on foot. Hold on Sora." Tai got up and continued running.
"Wow." Davis said. "Hey guys. Where's Tai?"
"He is probably on his way to where that light came form. I bet its Sora." Kari said. "She will need our help. Let's go." Several of the digimon tried to digivolve, but were unable to do so.
"Why Can't they digivolve?" Joe asked.
"No clue, but let's just go." Izzy said. As they ran off towards the source of the light.
Back at ground zero, Sora and the shadow figure were both on the ground weakened, but not totally gone.
"Very impressive." He said. "How ever, it's my turn." He snapped his finger and Daemon appeared. Sora began to cough up blood and realized her side was also damp with blood. "Poor little one." The shadow was now up and walking slowly towards Sora. She tried to get up, but she was too weak and just stumbled to the ground.
"Get.. Get away from me." Sora commanded trying to crawl away. But the pain inside was too great.
"Now, now. I don't want to hurt you." The shadow was now standing in front of her. Sora was trembling. "On the coterie. I am going to use you. To help me destroy all of the digital world."
"Never." Sora said defiantly.
"I don't believe you have a choice."
Just then Biyomon, Tai and Agumon appeared a few feet away.
"Sora!" Tai screamed as he ran towards her. The shadow saw them coming and quickly trapped them in a force field of some sort. "Sora are you ok?" Tai said seeing her in her weakened condition.
"Let them go." She ordered somehow finding the strength to stand. She held her side, she was still bleeding and her white dress had an ominous red huge to it.
"Well let's up the ante, shall we?" Suddenly the rest of the group appeared in a separate bubble. "You can't refuse me now."
All eyes were on Sora. Her mind was a jumble of thoughts. She dropped to her knees and began to weep.
"No!" Tai screamed. "Sora, don't give up. You can do it, I believe I you." She looked up at him. "Oh Sora, I didn't mean any of the stuff I said before. How could I ever stop loving you?"
"Sora we believe in you." Kari yelled.
"Ya, kick this guy's ass!" Davis shouted.
Tai shouted, "Don't worry about us. Get him… I love you."
Sora got to her feet once more. She was going to give it one last shot. She summoned every last bit of power she had left. She released her energy, this surge was less powerful than the last, but it was full of emotion. She released the energy at the shadow figure; it hit him hard enough to make him drop the groups of hostages he had been holding.
Sora once again fell to the ground, this time her body went limp. And the stone she wore around her neck broke in two.
Tai got up and ran towards her, but was stopped by Daemon. Tai was sent flying back towards the rest of the group. The shadowy figure began to laugh and he slowly picked himself up.
"Nice try, but I'm afraid this means you lost." He carried away his prize and cackled. "Come and save her if you dare." and with that he vanished.
"Where's Sora?" Tai ran to where she was laying a few minutes ago. But all he could find was blood stained grass and half of her stone. Tai picked it up and gazed into it. "Come on guys," he said as he stood up and started to run toward their final destination.
"Where are you going?" Joe asked. "Where's he going?" He looked around, but everyone else taken off. "Wait for me!" He screamed as he tried to catch up to the rest.
Tai could see the darkness on the horizon. A great and foreboding castle loomed high into the sky. 'Hang on Sora' he thought. As they got closer to the fortress, darkness engulfed everything. The stone Tai held in his hands was the only source of light.
He stopped at the foot of the castle.
"Sora, tell me how to get in." He was looking into the crystal now.
"There theoretically has to be a door somewhere." Izzy commented. Suddenly a huge door opened mysteriously. "Well that was easy. But it has to be a trap." he continued.
"No shit it's a trap," Tai said as he ran inside.
"Tai, wait. We need to stick together." Matt called after him but it was too late. He had already vanished into the darkness. "Crap doesn't that guy ever listen?"
"So which way do we go?" Kari questioned. No one knew where Tai went, and no one knew what to expect. The situation was tense.
"I guess we split up." Izzy said. "We cover more ground that way." And so they went their separate ways into the darkness.
