DR: The final chapter! I can't believe it!
Henry: What's so unbelievable?
DR: That I've made it this far. I never expected my stories to have this acceptance……
Terriermon: You're just lucky……
DR: Yeah, I guess. Anyway, I don't own Digimon, but I do own the Omni-vice idea, the Triad and good-old Chaos. On to the final chapter, where Henry and Jeri fall prey to desperation, Terriermon has some fun telling the others of what they did under Doumon's spell, the identity of Doumon's 'Lord', Rika reveals her feelings for Gogglehead, and a weird little Rukato moment……which is not really Rukato!
THEORY OF CHAOS
Chapter 7
Spirals of Everlasting Chaos
Jeri was scared. Upset and scared, to be precise. She hated that place so much, she felt as if she would throw up if she stayed there one more minute. But she had to stay. For Takato.
The hospital's cold, dead colors sent a shiver down her spine. Why couldn't hospitals be a little more……lively? She found them depressing. And she knew everyone there shared her opinion. So silent………why isn't anybody talking?
Yes, they were all silent, waiting for something, a sign. Henry was to her right, but he didn't seem to be in the mood for a conversation. Next to him, Janyuu Wong looked at his son with a worried look. He was probably checking out the several bruises Henry had on his face, product of their battle against ChaosGallantmon. Actually, all the Tamers had bruises that obviously worried their parents, as the kids had yet to explain them what had happened.
Jeri looked down. Elecmon and Terriermon were sleeping on the floor right at her feet. It was surprising that the hospital staff had allowed the Digimon to enter, but it was the best they could have done. Besides, they were too tired to cause any trouble.
She looked left, where Hirokazu and Kenta tried to avoid their mothers' handkerchiefs, in their attempts to clean the boys' faces. Jeri would have laughed at the sight in any other circumstance. Guardromon was right next to Hirokazu, and he, too, was asleep, same as MarineAngemon, who rested atop the robot's head.
Ryo was sitting on a chair in front of Jeri's. Monodramon rested on his lap. The Legendary Tamer seemed to be deep in thought, obviously pondering on the recent events. Guilmon was resting at his place in the park, under Calumon's and Impmon's care (quite reluctantly from the latter).
Then, Jeri looked at Rika. Her mother and her grandmother were making their best effort to make her talk, maybe even explain what had happened, but Rika was immersed in her own mind. Then, the girl looked to her left, somewhere at the end of the waiting room. Jeri followed her friend's line of sight and met Takato's parents, who were talking with the doctor in charge. By the doctor's grim look and the way Takato's mother cried on her husband's shoulder, the news weren't very relieving. And it hurt Jeri to know that.
Then, she noticed she was being watched, and Jeri's eyes met Rika's. And Jeri could see the pain in her friend's eyes. As the only ones who knew the truth, they were being forced to carry an extremely heavy burden. And Rika didn't seem to be ready for it.
Suddenly, Rika got up and walked away, silently asking Jeri to follow her. The girl nodded and got up, followed closely by everyone's eyes, fixated on her. Renamon appeared out of thin air in front of Rika, but the redhead told something to the Data Digimon, who nodded and vanished again. Jeri and Rika left to the cafeteria. Once they were comfortable, or as comfortable as they could be in that situation, Rika spoke.
"Are you okay?"
Jeri shook her head. "How could I be okay!?"
Rika nodded. "I guess. I'm not okay, either."
Jeri remained silent. Watching Rika being so direct when it came to her feelings was not normal. Something was bothering her.
"What's wrong, Rika?"
Rika remained silent for a minute. "It's what that TK guy said…about me and the Gogglehead."
Jeri nodded. She was expecting that. "What is it?"
"He called me 'The Chain', the one who connects Goggle……Takato to this world. And I don't even know what that is supposed to mean! I can tell that Takato is important for whatever is going to happen in the future, but how can I be of help if I don't even know what I'm supposed to do!?"
Jeri nodded again. "You tell me. He called me 'The Healer', and I definitely have no idea of how to help Takato."
"Your silent work will cure the vessel's heart when it's most hurt."
What did he mean by that? It's not his heart what needs healing right now, it's his body!
Rika shook her head. "I wish……I had the answers."
"But we don't, Rika." Jeri explained. "It's not that much what we know and the others don't. Not even Takeru has the answers. So we must do what we can, so that in case we fail and Takato………" She couldn't finish the sentence, but Rika got the idea.
"……dies?" Rika completed grimly. Jeri was surprised at a side of Rika she had never seen. She had always admired Rika's tough attitude and carefree lifestyle, but not even Rika could remain cold and careless when facing death itself. The perspective of losing Takato was as troubling for the redhead as it was for Jeri.
Jeri, indeed, was afraid of the idea of watching Takato die. She had already lost her mother, she didn't want to say goodbye to another loved one. But Rika……she still had both parents, but one of them had abandoned her. Jeri wondered which was worst, the cold certainty of a dead parent or the painful feeling of an unnecessary separation.
"…yes. In case Takato……leaves us, we at least have the certainty that we gave it our best." Jeri concluded.
The two girls remained silent for several minutes. Rika seemed to be pondering what she had just being told, and Jeri didn't want to interrupt her. Five minutes later, Rika suddenly got up and walked away. Jeri followed her back to the waiting room, where the doctor was giving the bad news to everyone.
"……internal bleeding, multiple fractures, concussions caused by severe brain damage, abnormal EEG readings, steady decrease of blood pressure……I've never seen a body as damaged as his……it's like an eighty-year-old after a car accident. His body is simply……not working anymore."
Everybody remained silent, slowly swallowing the bitter news. The Digimon had also heard the doctor's words, and they, too, remained silent. Rika interrupted the grim moment.
"Can I go see him?"
"Technically, yes, but I wouldn't really recommend……"
"Okay, I'm going." Rika concluded as she walked towards the door.
"Hey, wait!" the doctor insisted, but Jeri's hand stopped him.
"Please."
For a strange reason, the doctor didn't (or couldn't) say another word.
*****Eastern Quadrant*****
ChaosGallantmon………a fascinating Digimon, indeed………
Takeru continued his trip across the deserts of Server. Memories of battles that took place years before haunted him, at the same time he thought about the battle the Tamers had finished a few hours before. Patamon was flying for a change, flapping his wings slowly enough to move at Takeru's pace.
"You can't stop thinking about him."
"No………"
No, he just couldn't get Takato out of his mind. Every time he revealed a new answer, many more mysteries appeared around the Omni-Tamer.
What makes him so special……so unique……so…….powerful?
Not only he had the highest data percentage in his DNA double helix, but such data also had the most notorious variations. It was definitely not an accident: Takato Matsuki had been carefully "designed" in a process that couldn't have taken less than a decade.
Everthing seems to be related to him somehow……he's the source…..and hopefully, he'll be the end of it all……
Takeru had so many questions he couldn't really concentrate it one at a time.
Calm down, Takeru. Hopefully, some of your questions will be answered very soon.
Takeru smiled. Pauline always knew what to say to make him feel better. He couldn't help but love her……in a certain way.
I hope so, Pauline, I really hope so.
Yes, that was the reason of his trip to the Eastern Quadrant, even after he had decided not to go there. I was inspired that day……
He was going to Gennai's place. He somehow doubted that the 'Digital Guardian' had been created just to prepare the arrival of the Digi-Destined. He remembered the day he was shown the process in which they were chosen, and the Digivices, Crests and original eight Digi-Eggs were created. He remembered he was in an immense complex, until it was attacked by Piedmon, the leader of the Dark Masters. He had the premonition not only the Digi-Destined were born in that place. He somehow knew the Vessel of Chaos was born there, too.
Project Asmodeus……
Those two words loomed in his mind constantly. He didn't know what they meant, but he had the feeling Project Asmodeus was the answer to most, if not all of his questions. Maybe Gennai knew something about it.
Immediately, his thoughts returned to Takato. He had a slight idea of his actual state. He couldn't have gone through the process of controlling Chaos without suffering quite a bit. "TK……"
"Yes, Patamon?" Only Patamon still called him like that. Pauline called him Takeru, and the Digimon he met on his trips called him 'Lord' or 'Takeru-sama'. He didn't really like it, but he couldn't convince the Digimon to call him any other way. Besides, he had to let them be if he wanted them to keep the secret of his existence……even if it wasn't much of a secret anymore.
"……do you think he'll be okay?"
Takeru sighed. He wished he knew the answer to that question. "I hope so, Patamon. We need him."
"I hope he gets better. He's a really nice guy."
Takeru smiled. It was hard to believe someone as nice and innocent as Takato hid within himself the Son of Destruction. He liked Takato……and he liked Chaos, too. He understood why Takato couldn't hate him even after all the things he had done. Takato and Chaos are the same, and if Takato couldn't trust Chaos, he wouldn't be able to live with himself. But Takeru still wondered what could be done to protect Takato's body. It was incredible he hadn't died yet. Takato's body was, indeed, a miracle of the Thread of Destiny.
*****Guilmon's Hut*****
"Do you think he'll get better, Impmon?"
"I wish I knew that……"
Impmon groaned in his resting place at Guilmon's place. I had no idea why I'm doing this……
But he knew exactly why he had done it. He was doing it because for the first and probably last time ever, Rika had asked him nicely. And that couldn't mean anything good. He knew nothing about the Tamer-Digimon bond, so he ignored the reason of Guilmon's terrible pain. But it wasn't hard to link ideas when he was told Takato was in a coma-state. He first had to find out what that meant, though. But once he knew how critical the situation was, he decided to be helpful for a change. After all, he had heard of something called Murphy's Law……he had the feeling things would only get worse.
"How is he?"
Renamon's voice, echoing from nowhere, startled both Impmon and Calumon. The vulpine Digimon soon appeared next to Guilmon, who didn't even seem to notice her. The reptile then growled, affected by an unknown pain.
"It is indeed impressive the bong between Guilmon and his creator." Renamon said to no one. Impmon walked closer to the other virus. "Are you saying this is because of Gogglehead?"
Renamon nodded. "I wouldn't know, but I've heard that you put a little of your soul when you create something. Maybe that concept reaches a whole new extent in this case."
Impmon grimaced at the sight of the red dinosaur in pain. "Pineapple head………"
Calumon walked next to Renamon. "Will he be okay?"
The Data Rookie shook her head. "I wish I knew……"
But she couldn't help but worry about the boy addressed as the Omni-Tamer. Takato………
***** Rukato time! *****
Rika carefully closed the door behind her, and made sure it was locked before turning around and facing the mess Takato had become. Strange machinery and tubes were carefully disposed around the bed he was laying on, making sure he had the basic vital support. But the amount of artifacts she saw in that room gave her the idea of how serious was the problem.
"I told you not to fight……I told you!" she said softly as she walked closer. There was no way to get next to him without being trapped by the entangled web of tubes and cables, so moved to the wall opposite to Takato and leaned there, watching the disastrous scene.
"Why did you let it take over you, Gogglehead? Was it……what I said?"
Of course, there was no response. Rika considered leaving for a second, but something kept her inside that room. But it's like talking to a wall!
"But you still have to let it go out of your system."
What for!?
"Rika, no matter how much you try to deny it, you feel guilty for what's happening to him."
Of course not! It's not my fault he's such a sissy Gogglehead!
"Just like it's not your fault he cares so much for you………"
Yeah, right, as if that were………possible………
***** Inside Takato *****
"Man, you're missing the show of the century!" Chaos chuckled slightly as his own sentence. He just received a 'hmph!' for an answer.
"Oh, come on! I still don't get it. Why are you so mad at me?"
"Why, you're asking me!? WHY!? Do I need to use mimic, smoke signals, or what!?" Ruki replied with a tone that clearly showed her disgust towards Takato's other mind pattern. Chaos simply shrugged as he watched his counterpart. Takato lied just as immobilized as his body in the real world. His eyes were closed and his head rested on Ruki's lap. The girl had changed her outfit to a long, cerulean dress that was tight from below her shoulders to her waist, where it widened and fell all the way down until it reached the floor of the dark room. Her right hand softly caressed Takato's hair.
"Don't blame me for his weakness, Ruki."
"If you hadn't begun to attack the Tamers in the first place, none of this would have happened!"
"They deserved it. That girl insulted Takato, and an insult to Takato is an insult to me, as I am Takato."
"Killing them wasn't the solution!"
"Yes, it was. Their presence in Takato's……in our life is a constant threat to our emotional stability."
"So that's it………you want to get rid of them because you're not strong enough to cope with the feelings they make you experience. Am I wrong?"
Chaos' silence said more than any words. Ruki would have smiled at her small victory in any other circumstance. "Anyway, we should listen to the Nonaka girl. Maybe she may help us solve this problem after all."
"That would be a first." Chaos replied. "She's done nothing but causing pain since the moment we met her. Anyway, I'll take the body again."
"Don't tell me…!!!"
"Gee, calm down." Chaos replied immediately. His cool voice wasn't very reassuring, though. "I'm just tired of not being able to move a muscle. My power will cope with the body's lack of strength."
Ruki looked at the other Takato before looking back at the one unconscious. "Come back to me soon, Takato. Please……I just hope Rika and Chaos help us somehow………"
*****Back to the Hospital*****
"Why!?" Rika shouted, her mind driven by confusion. "Why do you put so much effort in being my friend, Gogglehead? No matter how much I insult you, or humiliate you, or trash you in the Card Game, you keep showing me that stupid grin of yours! Why?"
"You know he can't answer you."
I sure wish he could……
"Are you sure you're looking for the answer at the right place?"
Rika calmed down, looking at the unconscious body once more. "I can't believe you……I can't believe myself! Why me……why you? Destiny is definitely playing with me………"
She sat down in the only other furniture in the room: a small, uncomfortable, metallic chair. "I thought I didn't need anyone…….I still think so! I can be fine by myself! I can take care of myself! I don't need any friends and in a few years I won't even need a family!"
She looked down, at the cold, monotone floor. "Since my father left………I avoided making any sentimental bond with anyone. Why making any relationships, if they just lead to grief and deception? Why having friends, if I can easily live without them? And………"
I can't believe I'm going to say this……
"Well, look at it from the bright side: he's not listening. No one is listening."
……I……guess you're right……
Rika chuckled to herself. "Yeah, Destiny is using me as nothing but a toy, because……………besides all my beliefs, all the barriers I placed around everyone……Destiny had to send to only one who could possibly change those beliefs and pierce through all those barriers."
Well……here goes nothing………why the hell I'm so nervous, he's not even listening!
"Stupid Gogglehead………all your pathetic acts of friendship paid off……to my disbelief………I like you."
Rika finally breathed again. I can't believe I just said that………I think I'm gonna throw up……
"Cheer up, girl! At least you got it out of your system!"
Why do I have the belief I'll end up regretting it?
"Good Lord, I like you! You're the only boy……the only person I find remotely interesting! Henry is a pathetic brainiac, Jeri has a serious need for a shrink……wait, she already has one……Kazu is the most annoying person in the whole world, Kenta can't even think by himself, Suzie is a little baby I have never said a word to, and Ryo……he's just so……Ryo!"
Rika took air once more. "But that doesn't change the fact that you're a stupid little Gogglehead who can't walk two steps without tripping. However………I still like you. How did you do it, anyway?"
"Beats me." Takato replied softly.
And Rika froze.
*****Outside the Room, with the other Tamers*****
"So………who wants to play something?"
Henry didn't even bother to say "Terriermon!" to the little rookie sitting on the floor. The small Digimon groaned.
"Oh, come on, Henry! Stop acting as if you still were possessed by Doumon!"
That got everyone's minds working. They didn't have many reminiscences of the two and a half days they spent under Doumon's influence.
"Actually, I don't remember very much about those two days…" Henry admitted.
"You have nothing to remember! You were asleep the whole time!" Terriermon replied.
"Oh……" Henry said softly, a little because of the embarrassment. Jeri giggled a little bit, and then proceeded to ask Terriermon.
"And what about me?"
Terriermon shook his head. As much as he wanted to talk about it…….heck, he was dying to talk about it; he couldn't because of a simple reason.
"I don't know as much as I'd want to. I was with Henry and Suzie most of the time. But you visited Henry during Saturday. I think you wanted him to go out with you." Obviously, he said the last part with a smirk on his face, at the same moment Jeri regretted having done that question. While everyone looked at her and her face became incredibly red, she looked at Jeri and shook her head.
"But I was under Doumon's control!"
Yeah, right. The rookie named Terriermon thought, but Henry seemed to accept his friend's explanation. Terriermon let it go (for now……) and continued.
"Obviously, Henry, having become Mr. Lazy-O, refused to saying he had to sleep……and you put up quite a show."
"Huh?" Now Jeri was puzzled. Terriermon's grin grew wider.
"I'm sorry, but the things you said to Henry are not appropriate for such a young audience." Terriermon concluded, pointing at the other Tamers. While Henry, the Tamers and the parents in the place got a pretty accurate idea of what she had said to Henry after he had refused to go out with her, Jeri went through a phenomenon still without explanation, in which the subject goes through unimaginable shades of red. She finally settled at a light pinkish tone and avoided everyone's funny glances. Everyone finally stopped……but Ryo. However, Ryo wasn't really making fun of Jeri as the funny expression soon changed to a grimace, and then he suddenly got up.
"Umm……err…….ahem………I'll be right back!"
And he dashed at a speed thought impossible for common humans. The puzzled people and Digimon watched the Digimon King until he was out of sight, and Terriermon chuckled in realization.
"I guess indigestion finally attacked."
"What do you mean?" Hirokazu asked, worried about his hero's sudden runaway.
"You don't get it, don't you? It's like in that movie……what was its name? Oh, yeah, 'Psycho Guy who is Really Smart and Kills People Seemingly at Random, but He's Really Not'. Each one of you represented one of those……how you call them……Capital Sins!"
Henry sweatdropped. "I think the movie was named 'Seven', Terriermon."
"Okay, I was close!"
"Sure, Terriermon." Henry replied sarcastically. "So I guess I was sloth."
"And I was probably wrath." Jeri concluded. Terriermon nodded.
"Yep, and Ryo was gluttony, Suzie was avarice, Hirokazu was pride, Kenta was envy……"
"……and Rika was lust."
Everyone looked at Rika's mother, the one who had finished Terriermon's explanation. The woman looked up and smiled. "So I guess that explains Rika's attitude these last two days."
Terriermon nodded and chuckled. "Gosh, I'd have paid to see that……Taka-chan……that name will live in my mind forever!"
Hirokazu linked ideas while Terriermon laughed loudly.
"Taka……chan? Are you saying Rika……and Chumly………whoa!"
Everyone finally understood the magnitude of what had really happened. Kazu and Kenta soon followed Terriermon, and they were soon followed by Henry. Jeri began with a soft giggle, but soon got infected with the others' emotions and started laughing very loudly. Janyuu, whose sense of humor wasn't lost with the age, accompanied his son in the laughter, and so did the Nonakas. Eventually, everyone but Elecmon was laughing. It was a nice change for such a gloomy place.
"I………I don't get it." Jeri's Digimon said in the middle of the laughter.
*****Rika and Takato……I mean, Chaos*****
"YOU!!!!!"
Chaos simply placed his left index on his mouth. "Shhh……this is a hospital, remember?"
"You! You're the cause of all this!"
Chaos shook his head as he slowly changed from a reclined to a sitting position. "I said it before and I'll say it again: don't blame me for my counterpart's weakness."
"But if you hadn't gone berserk and attack us, none of this would have happened!"
"Gosh, you two really think alike."
"Who?"
"……forget it. Anyway, I only did what I did to help Takato."
"Help!? What kind of help is that!?"
"Don't you get it? He is nice and caring towards you all, and what does he get in return? Heck, only Henry and Jeri treat him the way he deserves! From you and the others, he gets nothing but grief and humiliation!"
That took Rika by surprise. "What……what are you talking about?"
"Oh, come on! The way Ryo acts all almighty and stuff, as if he were only one good enough to talk to you! He might be able to stand a few jokes and pranks, but there isn't a minute in which you embarrass, hurt, pull a prank on, or simply humiliate him somehow! And you know how much he hates nicknames! He hates to be called Chumly, and he definitely hates being called Gogglehead! He only takes it from you because he……….anyway, the point is, I had to get rid of the things that hurt him."
Rika crossed her arms. "And how come you know so much about feelings, you creep?"
Chaos wasn't hurt by Rika's words. "Because I, too, am Takato. I feel what he feels, and it's incredible the amount of pain he goes through during what you think is a normal day. I wish I could share just a small percent of it with you, and then maybe you'd get an idea."
Rika snorted. "If he can't stand my ways, then maybe he shouldn't be my friend, and that's it."
Chaos shook his head. "The only reason he bears it is because he has seen through the façade."
"What is that supposed to mean!?" Rika spat back.
Chaos smiled. "Oh, come on! The whole bad girl attitude, the 'I'm-going-to-kick-your-ass' behavior and the multiple insulting and making fun of everyone is just a façade you created after the loss of your father. That is not the real you."
"Just as you're not the real Takato, so shut up!"
"Maybe, but the one you call 'Takato' is not the real Takato, either."
Rika was so close to close her hands around his neck, but she didn't want to hurt the body more than it already was. "How come?"
"You wouldn't understand, little girl."
"I'll show you 'little girl'!!!"
Chaos chuckled right before Rika lunged at him, but he easily stopped her with his two hands.
"I don't get it. You like him, but you're trying to hurt him, even after everything I've told you."
"YOU'RE NOT TAKATO!!!!!!!"
"I am Takato as long as I own this body. Rika, if this body is hurt any further, the mind pattern you call 'Takato' won't have a place to settle in once he recovers."
"Then how come you're so strong!?"
Chaos chuckled again as he pushed Rika away from him. "Because I'm thousands of times more powerful than him."
Rika shot him daggers. "Well, for someone thousands of times more powerful than MY Gogglehead, you sure are easy to control."
Chaos' eyes narrowed. "That was a moment of distraction."
"Yeah, right."
"Alright, alright, I'll admit it! YOUR Takato MIGHT be more powerful than he seems to be."
"'MIGHT'!?"
"Okay, IS!"
"That's better." Rika said, unable to hide her pride. Chaos sighed in defeat. "You had to choose this girl of all women in this world, huh, Goggles?"
"I guess I'll go back to sleep. The nurse will return any moment soon."
Rika nodded. "If you do something to that body, I swear I'll……"
"Rika, you should know by know that I need this body. I wouldn't hurt it on purpose." Chaos replied. "And since when are we talking on first-name basis?"
Rika was about to leave when she was interrupted by Chaos' pouting. "Aww, no goodbye kiss?"
"Screw you, Gogglehead." She said as she showed him the finger. Chaos chuckled.
"You know, that's not very ladylike."
"And since when do you want me to be a lady, Goggles?"
"Touché."
Rika closed the door behind her, leaving Chaos alone with his thoughts……figuratively.
"Bad girl………I love her."
***** Somewhere frighteningly familiar…… *****
Doumon failed………she couldn't bring Chaos to me………but her sacrifice wasn't in vain………
The cloaked one looked up as what once was Doumon's data floated and merged with a great 'mass' of data hovering over the calm waters of the Dark Ocean. Once Doumon's data merged with the greater 'mass', it glowed brightly, and the accumulation of information grew until it became the only source of light in the gloomy place. The 'Lord' narrowed his eyes to tiny slits and smiled inside his robe, walking away. It's done……
Data. That was everything he needed. Chaos' data would have been more helpful, as he would have received infinite power from it, but with Doumon's death, he had gathered enough data to open a Gate to wherever he wanted. Finally……after fourteen years………I'll return to the warmth………to enact my revenge!
He knew exactly where he wanted to go. He would go after Chaos himself. And once he had the power of Chaos, he would have no trouble traveling to any dimension, world or quadrant he desired. The Digi-Destined? Nah…..they were mere insects. They weren't even worth the effort. No……his revenge wasn't against the Digi-Destined………it against humanity itself, as it was humanity which created that hell they called 'The Dark Ocean'.
He knew the Digi-Destined would try to stop him. But he also knew that after fourteen years they had lost their innate powers. He knew they weren't a threat anymore, and he wouldn't stain his hand with their worthless blood. That's why he had even bothered to prepare……an 'escort'.
He walked closer to the shore. There, his guard waited. Three hundred Kurisarimon, one hundred Scubamon, who had changed their loyalty after witnessing the new Lord's true power, and an elite of twenty-five DarkScubamon specially trained by himself. They would take care of the nuisances.
"Today is the day of our rebirth! Soon, we'll tap into the Ultimate Power! Soon, we'll return to our true kingdom!!!"
The Kurisarimon excitedly swayed their tentacles while the other Digimon shouted in unison. The cloaked Mega Digimon smiled as he enjoyed their cries of triumph. Soon………very soon, Takato Matsuki, very soon………
"ALL HAIL LORD DAEMON!!!!!!"
