Wow 22,800 words... I can't believe I hit a round number with the last
chapter. And I'm sorry it was so short it seemed a lot longer when I read
it and it was either my shortest or secant shortest chapter so far, oh
well.
I'm most likely going to have to put this up to R soon as blood and guts and real fights are on the way. If y'all presser me I might try, I emphasize TRY some deeper romance that could bump it up all the way. I've never written anything like that before and I have VERY little experience to draw upon in that regard so I'm more then a little hesitant to try.
I do read a hell of a lot so I should have picked up something though, wouldn't you think?
All right, the moment you've all been waiting for is about to arrive. The intro of Sara. Now all I've got to do is figure out what digimon she has... yes, yes I know. Sad isn't it?
-Flameraven
I don't own digimon. Nor do I own any digimon... really...
Chapter 7.
The shackled boy was about to demand how his cell mate had gotten free when the small orange and white digimon's ear twitched ever so slightly. He flew back towards the single manacle that was lying on the ground before squeezing into it and puffing up just a bit as Travis looked on incredulously.
'They tried to shackle a digimon who can expand using just that? How sad.' Travis thought to himself as he fought to keep a smile off his face as he now had heard the footsteps that had alerted TK's partner to their arriving company.
He turned his head to watch the door only to see a girl that was perfect for his tastes staring right back at him. She was beautiful, creamy white skin, long flaming red hair and her eyes were a deep emerald green. He knew he was staring, and he also new that she would try to use it against him, so he wrenched his eyes off of her only to discover too late that doing so was a mistake.
His eyes facetted on the other person to enter the room and he new he was lost. She was darker then her companion, a light coppery tan with hair as black as a ravens wing and soft sea-green eyes that seemed to see into his very soul. His mouth went dry, his hands started to sweat and he could swear that he could feel his brain starting to turn to mush as he looked into those eyes.
But somehow his now semi-gelatinous brain made a connection with one of his most treasured memories. Trying desperately to hide her effect on him he spoke in his best emotionless monotone. "Hello Sara." And then felt his heart swell as she smiled at him.
One thought echoed in the remnants of his once superior mind. 'No good can come of this...'
********
The ebony tressed girl smiled at her prisoner's filmy attempts to control his body. He had grown up rather well and her smile turned predatory. He would work with her and perhaps something more, but one way or the other he would be hers. Time to start this show.
"Travis." She said inclining her head slightly, he eyes dancing with mischief. "So nice of you to drop by." Her rather lame joke was reworded when the corners of his mouth twitched ever so slightly. So that was to be his game? Well she had broken him when they were eight and merely friends; this would be so much easier.
With a soft smile she placed her hand against his slightly furred cheek, as she stared into his eyes she watched them go from a steely gray to a glorious sky-blue and she knew she was in control.
"My dear, sweet, Travis. I've missed you." she cooed up at him, before going on her tip-tows and kissing him with a passion that surprised both of them.
*******
Patamon looked on with interest. Travis had been going through the same things that TK always seemed too around Kari but in a much faster rate. The kiss startled him, as did the fact that both partes involved seemed to have forgotten that anyone else was in the room.
Slightly embarrassed the rookie level digimon looked to the one identified as 'Sara's companion. He assumed she would be considered pretty but human standers, but she didn't hold his interest for long.
He glanced back over towards where Travis' crest and D-3 were lying. If Gatomon was correct in what she had seen and Travis hadn't just somehow recruited an army that crest would be their ticket out of here. Now just how was he to get it?
*******
The redhead looked on in interest, taking mental notes as her leader continued to work on the poor boy. Tai would be coming soon and once she had him rapped around her little finger the rest of the so called 'heroes' would be easy pickings. She chuckled slightly to herself as her Agumon walked in to report that the first of the 'armaments' had been found.
*******
Joe had acted on pure instinct. He had years of judo training as he had vowed to never be left defenseless ever again after all that he had gone through in the digital world. What he hadn't expected was Mimi to arrive just as he did it, nor for Michael to somehow turn a normal if oddly eroded stone into a blue rapier!
The pain as its wickedly sharp point entered his shoulder was blinding. He felt as if all his nerves were on fire. Mimi's scream was all that kept him conscious. Forcing his eyes to focus he saw his attack approach Mimi, the tip of his sword still dripping with his blood, but the fear in her eyes was all that it took. No one will ever make her afraid again.
*******
Mimi had ditched Izzy by giving him a little peck on the cheek, it had been too easy, only to arrive just into to see Joe, her Joe, flip Michael like he weighed nothing with one hand. If she hadn't of been so shocked she would have been proud. But once Michael had hit the ground he had reached for a rock to use as a weapon, and somehow had changed that rock into a sword.
She had stood helplessly has she watched one of her closest friends run her love through, and then he started after her. His blade dripping crimson and almost seeming to glow with a slight red light. His hand was out to her, and he was speaking. She knew that, his mouth was moving but she couldn't her anything, only once thought kept racing through her mind.
'Joe is dead, Joe is dead.'
And then suddenly he was there, attacking despite his wounded arm, she called to him only to watch him fall once more, her scream of desperation was answered however as Joe's attacker got more then he bargained for.
*******
Izzy's head snapped around at Biyomon's wail and he felt his heart turn to ice in his chest. The direction she had come from was where TK, Kari, Travis, and Tai had all run too. The idea that the 'They' she was referring too was all of them would mean that four of the five strongest digidistend could well be MIA.
That was bad yes, but that wasn't what made his heart almost stop, oh no. It was the fact that one of those missing could be Tai.
Izzy had a funny feeling that this time, he wouldn't be able to send a out a distress call telling Tai NOT to comeback for him to do just the opposite this time. He looked at Sora and Mat, mentally damning them for making their leader leave just when he knew they were going to need him most.
That was when he realized that with both Tai and Travis missing that either Davis or Mat would most likely lead.
He mentally snorted at that one. But then something hit him, a connection in the pattern and a dark on at that. Travis had 'never come back', Tai had just left and Davis was standing there looking very lost.
All because of girls.
It was almost as if to wear the goggles, was to be cursed.
*******
Ken and Willis looked down at the two younger destined, but they could feel their resolve braking down, not even the sobbing of a certain pink digimon was enough to brake the intense stares. And to make matters worse all three of their own digimon as well as Armadillomon and Hawkmon where doing the same.
As Yolie asked for the fifth time, "What do you mean by that?" Ken finally buckled and, with some help from Willis, told the story. A story of love, betrayal, and death. A story of death that was both cheated and embraced, and how a boy of eight had become a man far, far too soon.
