Chapter 7:
Awakening and Revealing


At long last, I have put up another chapter to this story. Sorry to all those who wanted me to put a new chapter to this story sooner. I just so caught up with 'One Person Does Make A Difference' that I had to finish that one before I continued this one. And since that one is done I can concentrate on this story. If this chapter is a little out of norm I am story. It will take me some time to get use to this story again. Before you read, I have to tell you that I don't own digimon. Now read the chapter and please review it.


(Davis' P.O.V.)

I was hurting all over and my body ached. Slowly I opened my eyes allowing the sunlight come in. Despite the pain I pulled myself up to the sitting position. Looking around I saw that the only person that was in the room with me, was Veemon who was sleeping in a chair that was right beside my bed. I tried to shake him awake and after a few tries I was finally able to wake him up. He immediately became wide awake when he saw it was me.

"I see that you are finally awake. It took you long enough." he said since he had seen me go through this on numerous occasions. "I guess so. How long has it been since I lost consciousness?" "Just four days. You don't need to worry though. Nothing much has happen since Piedotimson attacked. Just some small disturbances. The others were able to take care of them." I was relieved that everything was all right while I was unconscious. But their was something I needed to ask.

"What about Kari and Gatomon?" He gave me a small smile as he knew what I really meant. "Both of them are fine. They have adjusted quite well and even helped us win a few missions." I couldn't help but smile that Kari and Gatomon were able to adjust to everything so quickly. "Do you wish for me to get her and the others that you finally woken?" "Go ahead. They would find out sooner than later. At least I will be prepared for all the questions they will ask me about what happened in the battle." Veemon knew what I was referring to. "Just tell them the truth." Veemon left to get the others while I pondered on what he said.

I was only had to wait about five minutes until I heard a knock on my door. As soon as I opened it I was in a tight bear hug. "Your finally awake. I am so glad you regained consciousness." "Comedown Kari. I'm sorry I made you worry. I was just doing what I need to do." Apparently we were so preoccupied that neither of us notice Tai and Sora coming in. "Do you two wish to have a moment alone or what?" Seeing the position that we were in, we let go of each other. As I glared at Tai for that little comment, Kari was blushing a slight red. "Very funny Tai. I could say the same for you and Sora." This time it was Tai glare at me and Sora to blush in embarrassment. "Can we forget that and get to the matter at hand?" "Fine by me. What is your first question?"

"When did you learn that move 'Raging Dragon?' I never recalled you ever using a move like that before?" "I learned it when I trained a while ago. It took some practice but I was able to completely control it. That's not even one of my strongest attacks." "You mean their is more?" "Well, a course. Do you actually believe I just had that one version of that certain attack? I have many more and they are even stronger than my 'Raging Dragon' attack." "Then why haven't you any of them until Piedotismon attacked? We could have used them to defeat Darkmon's forces." "The reason I never used any of them is because if I used them in the first place they would have found a way to stop them which would make them useless. I am going to use them when we finally go against Darkmon and when we do, I will make him feel pain that he never dreamt to be possible."

My anger was now starting to rise and I didn't know what would have happened if Kari put a hand on my shoulder and gave me a warm smile which helped me calm me down. "That's all that wanted to ask you at the moment. Me and Sora are going to tell Matt and the others what you just told us. Why don't you and Kari hangout for a while?" Their was more than Tai was saying. It was than that I realize what he was trying to do. With him and Sora leaving, that left me and Kari by ourselves. Apparently Tai wanted me to answer the questions that Kari wanted to ask me earlier.

Neither of us said anything for a few minutes until I finally decided to break the silence. "You wanted to ask me some questions before we were interrupted." "Yes." "Lets take a walk around the base. Along the way I can answer some of your questions." I extended my arm to her. She gave me another smile and excepted my offer by lopping her arm around mine. We exited my room and with Veemon and Gatomon walking behind us we started our walk.

As we walking, all the DigiDestined and digmon that we passed would congratulate me on defeated Piedotismon. I told it was nothing and I was just doing what I thought was right. After getting a few more congrates they left us and we were able to continue our walk in peace. "What do you want to ask me first Kari?" "When and how did you get all these new powers?" "Going right to the big ones I see? We better take a seat for this one. This is going to be a long story." Sitting down on a nearby table I prepared for a long explanation.

"Where do I start? It happened about two years after Darkmon's attack. Izzy and Ken made a machine that would help digimon reach a higher level." "Tai did mention something about that the first night I came here." "Then he must have told you about the discussion me and him had after we were told about what the machine could do." "He told me that you might had thought about using the machine on yourself. He didn't tell me much after that." "Figures that he would leave the explaining to me. It happened that every night.

Flashback: That night

I slowly sneaked through the ground without being seen and slowly inched my way to my target. "Are you sure you want to go through with this Davis? Do you remember what Izzy and Ken said about what could happen?" "Sure I do Veemon. I know that I could get severely hurt or even killed if I tried this. But I am willing to do this because I know that we are going to need everything we got to take down Darkmon."

"But do you even know how to work the machine in the first place." asked a worried Veemon. "Of course I do. I watched closely how Izzy and Ken were working the machine. It looks simple enough for you to work with." "What do you me? Why can't you do it?" "Because I will be in it at the time. That is why I need you to set it up for me and just in case something goes wrong you can stop it." We finally got to the machine. It was just a huge platform with a dome on top of it with a strange looking ray gun in the top of the dome. (AN: Sorry for the sucky description.)

I walked over to the doorway into the dome and stepped in went to the center of the dome. "Okay Veemon, press the lever to low and press the button. That should start the machine up." Veemon nodded his head and did as he was told. The machine started to make a noise but I presumed that it was just because it was warming up. Suddenly, the ray gun fired a bolt of energy into my body. I had never felt so much pain in my life until then. I wanted to scream out but I kept it in so not to worry Veemon and make him turn off the machine. But with the pain I could feel the energy go into my body. I could feel myself getting stronger. As I continued to get hit by the ray the pain started to get worse, almost unbearable. I look over to the control panel and saw that Veemon accidentally pushed the level to high.

I suddenly remember when I was watching Izzy and Ken using the machine earlier on some of the digimon I saw that they never went higher than medium. They told all of us at the meeting that it could be too dangerous to set the machine on high. Now I can see why. With sudden burst of energy I felt like I was going to explode. I tried to yell to Veemon to turn it off. But I couldn't say anything because all the pain I was going through.

As I felt like I couldn't take anymore I noticed that the control panel was starting to go haywire. Then it exploded and when it did the entire machine started to exploded. Veemon tried to get me out but he couldn't since the doorway in was blocked. Despite that the control panel was complete destroyed the energy ray continued to fire. Even with all the strength I had I couldn't move at all. All I could do was yell out a scream of pain.

When it seemed that I couldn't take anymore, the entire machine exploded. The explosion woke up everyone and caused them to where the machine was supposed to be. But all they say was a huge crater with me at the bottom of it half dead and Veemon who was thrown a few yards away because of the explosion.

Everyone thought that a blast like that would have killed me. But to everyone's amazement, not only did I survived it but I actually made a full recovery in a matter of days. From their I got stronger and faster with each passing day. The only problem was that I wasn't able to control it properly. I left the others so I could master my new abilities. Slowly but surly I learned them and rejoined the others. With my news skills, we were able to comeback from sure defeat and make a strong showing against Darkmon and his minions.

End of flashback

"And it has been like that ever since. I now take on some of the most dangerous missions. The ones that are considered too dangerous to go for. Like fighting off an army of mutant digimon and destroying slave camps. You know, the usual." "You got to be kidding me." "I'm as serious as a heart attack. I have lost count on how missions I came back from were I some way hurt but be healed up within a days time." The look on Kari's face when I said that was hilarious. She had her mouth hanging opened and her eyes were as wide as golf balls. "You better close your mouth before you swallow something that your regret." She quickly came over the shock and relaxed. "Is their anything else you would like to ask?"

"Why all of the sudden have you believe that I am the real Kari now?" I just knew she was going to ask that question sooner or later. "The reason that I know that you are in fact the real Kari is because you mentioned that talk we had just before you disappeared. I am the only one besides you that knew about that." "What that it?" "No, it wasn't it. Right after I defeated Piedotismon and collapsed, you should immediate concern for me. Just as you did before you disappeared. No one could ever fake the kind of sincerity that you have."


Kari's P.O.V.

To say that I was shocked would be an understatement. Just now I had found out how Davis became so strong and more importantly, found out that he truly believes that I am really Kari. "Why don't we continue with our walk?" "I would like that." Resuming our walk we talked about old times. Like our adventures in the digital world. I would tell him what happen during the four days while he was unconscious and he would tell me about some of the missions he went through. I was amazed at all the things he had gone through all these years. As we continued to walk, I saw that I wasn't talking to Davis, the super powerful warrior. But Davis, the friend I knew when we were little kids.

The day ended quicker than either of us wanted to but we saw that we better turn in. Walking me back to Tai's and Sora's house he told me that he hoped that we could do this again someday. I told him that I would love to. Then, out of no where, he planted a light kiss on my cheek and ran off with Veemon behind him. I just stood there in complete shock at what just happened. But deep down, I couldn't help but be happy about what occurred. With a small smile on my face I opened the door walked in with Gatomon at my side and with my hand touching the cheek that Davis kissed.
