The digidestined were all at the mall complex. Actually, the girls wanted to go shopping and just dragged the boys along to carry their stuff and pay for the food when they decided to eat. Suddenly, the ground shook.
"What's going on?!" Miyako cried.
"I don't know," Yamato responded.
~I took a walk around the world to
Ease my troubled mind
I left my body laying somewhere
In the sands of time~
As the ground shook harder, Hikari attempted to take a step.
Daisuke saw this. "Wait don't-" Too late. Her foot landed on the floor. Silence.
Hikari looked at Daisuke. "Daisuke, wha-" She paused as a crumbling noise was heard. The digidestined all froze and looked at 'Kari. She took another step.
"No!" Daisuke warned. Stares were thrown his way and then at the ground. *crumble**crumble* All eyes glared at Hikari. "Heh heh..oops.." They all fell below ground. *CRACK**WHOOSH**THUD**BOOM* No one moved or spoke for a while. Taichi rose and broke the silence. "Is everyone okay?"
"Yeah, sure, there's an earthquake or whatever, your sister moves causing the already-weak floor to cave, and we all fall into..some...cellar-cave-thing below a new mall complex, and you..you ask is everyone okay. Sure, of course we are. Not a problem to report." Sarcasm was evident in Yamato's voice.
"Yeesh, just asking. Look if you're okay then just say as I call you out. You're injured, then say what it is." Taichi proceeded after silence on Yamato's part.
~I watched the world float to the dark
Side of the moon
I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah~
Daisuke stared at what he believed to be a dirt-rock-wall unable to move or speak. ' My head...and my chest hurt,' Daisuke thought to himself, ' Wait...is that blood? Everyone's here. Why did Hikari have to go and move. I told her so. Why couldn't she just hear me out for once? Oh well...what can I do?' Then the all was lost to him as he fell unconscious.
~I watched the world float to the
Dark side of the moon
After all I knew it had to be something
To do with you
I really don't mind what happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend at the end~
"Hikari?"..."I'm okay. But something's up with my leg..." Two lights come on. It's a pair of flashlights. TK rushes over to Hikari's voice, but he trips not seeing the rock lying in front of him. He glares at the now-visible rock not noticing the danger he's lying so close to. (A/N: You'll know the danger later.) "Okay, who has a flashlight?" Taichi sounded annoyed.
"I do and so does Koushiro," Yamato replied.
"Paranoid, ne?" Taichi said.
"Helps, ne?" Yamato snapped.
Joe rolled his eyes as an argument brewed and moved to stop it. "We can't exactly afford the luxury of you two arguing right now, so could you please wait to kill each other until we check everyone and figure a way out?" Both boys nodded. "Moving on," Joe continued, "Ken you okay?"..."I'm fine."
"Miyako?"..."Aside from hating this, I'm alright."
"TK?"..."I'm alright."
"Iori?"..."...I'm okay as well."
"Koushiro you're okay as is Taichi and Yamato. Sora..Mimi?"..."We're fine," they said in unison.
"Hmmm, Taichi, Hikari, Yamato, Takeru, Miyako, Ken, Koushiro, Sora, Mimi, Iori, myself...?..who else?"
Ken glared. "Does Daisuke ring a bell?"
"Oh! Yes. Daisuke?" No response. Joe repeated, "Daisuke?" Still nothing.
"Daisuke this isn't funny..." Koushiro added.
"Come on Daisuke, that's enough," Sora put in.
"Daisuke? Alright, game's over, say something," Yamato said.
"Fine, you win Daisuke. You wanted us scared; you got it. Now cut it out." Hikari listened for Daisuke's reply. No answer.
"Where is he? He fell too..right?" Taichi looked around for his would-be protégé. Yamato and Koushiro moved their flashlights a bit to look.
"There!" Hikari gasps.
~If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be
There holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side with
My superman might
Kryptonite~
"He's out cold," Joe reported, " and there's a nasty gash on the side of his head and across his chest. It seems he landed on this boulder-looking rift here."
"Oh no.." Ken walked over. "Is he going to be okay?"
Joe looked back at Daisuke, "Not if we don't stop this bleeding." Ken and Joe ripped some of their shirts and Taichi and Yamato took their whole shirts off (A/N: Looking incredibly good doing so b.t.w) and handed it over to Joe. "Alright, the bleeding has stopped well enough. Now on how to wake him up."
"Why do we have to wake him up?" asked Hikari.
"Because he probably has a concussion, if he does and we don't wake him up he could fall into a coma and never wake up or he'll just die."
Daisuke moaned and shifted as the others tried to wake him. Eventually, after an ill-advised smack to the head, Daisuke awoke if only for the pain.
"Wha-?" Daisuke looked around blearily. The first thing he saw was TK and Hikari curled up together watching from a distance. "Ugh, what happened?" Daisuke asked rubbing his head only to find blood there.
"You fell and got hurt." Ah, Miyako stating the ever obvious. It fell on deaf ears as Daisuke continued to stare across at TK and Hikari.
~You called me strong, you called me weak,
But still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times I
Never let you down~
Daisuke's mind calls up all the times 'Kari laughed at him at his expense and then would turn around and say he was the strongest person she knew if she was in a jam.
~You stumbled in and bumped your head, if
Not for me then you would be dead
I picked you up and put you back
On solid ground~
He recalls the times he saved her. Currently, Hikari was now moving to walk to the others. Unfortunately, since the others either were already on that side or stayed to the wall, none of them noticed the large gap in the ground. It came from the floor crashing in. Some of it went further down. The flashlights weren't pointed over that way, so as TK watched 'Kari limp across, it was too late for him to help as she tripped and screamed falling into the hole. "Hikari!!" Daisuke jumped in more surprise than anything and rushed over as best he could. He managed to grab her hand. TK and the others continued to stare as if in a paralyzing trance.
"Hold on!" Daisuke told her. He pulled her up after much strain and then promptly passed out. This seemed to shake everyone out of their shocked and scared trances as they rushed over. TK was more cautious as he moved to the wall. In all the fuss, they failed to notice sounds from above.
~If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman~
"Daisuke, wake up!" Hikari cried. She shook him and wouldn't stop until her brother pulled her away. Silence. (A/N: It's a re-occurring thing, ne?) "Ngh..nnn...what?" Daisuke sat up after a bit.
"Daisuke!" Hikari threw her arms around Daisuke's neck, but quickly withdrew as he winced in pain.
~If I'm alive and well, will you be
There holding my hand~
"Hikari? You okay?" Daisuke asked still disoriented.
"Yes, thanks to you Daisuke." On the surge of the moment she kissed him. Everyone stared in silence. Pulling back, Daisuke blinked, grinned, and asked, "So this means you do like me back?" 'Kari nodded. Another blink. The others still looked on, expecting Daisuke to do or say something. "Oh." Yet another blink. Silence. Daisuke grins again...opens his mouth and closes it. Questioning looks are thrown at him. Their only form of response is Daisuke passing out again. The other digidestined promptly fall over anime-style (A/N: Of course.) Iori looked up as he heard people yelling for their attention.
"Hey! You kids alright down there?" questioned a hopeful officer.
Taichi and Yamato yelled back up. "Yeah, but two are injured."
"Okay, you kids hold on and we'll get you out now."
They cheered as help was on the way down. The officers came down a ladder and assisted them up one by one. Hikari stayed with Daisuke as the other digidestined went up.
~I'll keep you by my side with my
Superman might
Kryptonite
Yeah!!~
"Time to go miss," said an officer as he offered his hand.
'Kari shook her head. "We're the two injured. We need help. He's out cold and I can't walk on my leg anymore." The officer nodded and called for medics to head their way. Medics arrived and lifted Daisuke up on a stretcher attached to a helicopter. (A/N: Yes they can do that, I've seen it.) 'Kari was lifted as well because she refused to move and Daisuke's head was lying in her lap.
~If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be there
Holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side with
My superhuman
Kryptonite~
White. Everything would have been white if not for the objects present.
Daisuke awoke to see himself in a hospital room with flowers and cards all basically saying to get well soon. Someone cleared their throat and he turned his head to find 'Kari sitting in a chair next to his bed. He remembered what happened. "So you were serious right? About you and me? I mean, -I- know I love you. You're kind, beautiful, smart, and all else I could think up. Everything I could ever want or need in a girl and more."
'Kari blushed and she nodded. "Yes I meant it. I love you , Daisuke and I'm sorry I took so long to realize it and tell you. You could have died in there and then you saved me. You've been there for me time and time again. You're sweet, strong, courageous, and handsome. And that's all I ever wanted."
Now Daisuke blushed. "Ummm, 'Kari?" He blushed more, which is a feat considering his naturally tanned skin.
"Yeah?"
"Uh...I was wondering if you'd...well-"
"Yes?"
"Wouldyoukissmeagain?" He said it in such a rush 'Kari almost missed what he said.
She smiled sweetly at him and nodded. "Of course...Superman."
Daisuke looked confused but grinned anyways. They leaned as they shared another kiss. Just Superman and his Kryptonite.
