Chapter Forty-Nine: You'll Find Out

Kerry dropped to his knees as he looked int0 Tigromon's blood red eyes. Tigromon smirked.

"Why are you doing this?" Kerry asked and sniffed. A tear began appearing in his eye. "Why? Tell me!" he yelled. Tigromon was a bit shocked at Kerry yelling.

He knew Kerry was short-tempered and aggressive when it came to that, but he was stronger. Tigromon could disintegrate Kerry with a touch. Nothing could stop him, for he was a dark digi-god.

"I will kill and destroy the digiworld for what it has done to me" he mumbled.

Kerry had placed both his hands onto the ground and sniffed a bit. "Tigromon" he mumbled. "Spicmon, Boomon, Semimon, Talesmon, Mihiramon. What have you turned into? Why wasn't your next digivolution more peaceful, why not calm? Where have your colours gone? Why black?" he asked. He stopped.

~Flashback~

Spicmon bounced up and down. "The symbol on your glove means darkness. That means I get power from your darkness. Oooh, are those gummy worms?"

~End Flashback~

"He told me. It's my fault. I'm the darkness that made him the why he is. It's my fault the others are in trouble. My fault they're in trouble." Tears trickled down Kerry's cheeks. Tigromon had sat down and was starring down at Kerry. "Yes, it's your fault. You're the reason for all they're pain" he said. "If you weren't alive, they'd be fine" he continued.

"If I…" Kerry looked up. He stared into Tigromon's eyes. Tigromon looked back. Kerry's eyes looked different. He grinned. Tigromon tilted his head.

"Don't give up hope."

"Do you really… do you really think you can get me down with those lousy tricks?" Kerry asked and got up. He whipped his eyes with his sleeve. "It might be my fault but what I begun, I will end. I'll bring them back the light they need and… and I need Semimon for that. So…" Kerry stopped. Tigromon had gotten up and was advancing to him. Kerry walked backwards as Tigromon walked towards him.

"So de-digivolve and turn back to Semimon" Kerry continued. "Because I know Semimon's in there, somewhere." He stopped. He had bumped into something. A wall?

"Why? Why should I? In this body, in this form I have power. I could kill you with a touch of my paw" Tigromon asked.

"Asking me questions now are you?" Kerry asked cheekily. Tigromon raised a paw and threw Kerry through the room. "Don't get cheeky with me, human" he yelled. "ANSWER MY QUESTION!"

Kerry got up quickly. "Why should you be Semimon? Because I can trust him. Because he's always there for me, no matter what I do. Even if I'm mean to him, he'll come back. Might be because he's a bit stupid, slow, whatever. But it could be because he's a friend. A best friend. Someone you can trust and someone who won't hurt you, ever."

Tigromon gulped.

The darkness around the two of them faded. Haru, Ree, Seimon and Cashmon appeared. Cashmon and Seimon got onto they're legs and Haru cracked her neck.

"As the leader of the Keepers of Order, I fight with Kerry and Semimon. I won't stop till we have what we want, and that's Semimon. Whatever reason there is" Haru said. Seimon grinned. "Yeah. Cause he understands me. Cause he's cool and cause he's really, really big" the dog-digimon said.

"I'm leader of the Keepers of Chaos, opposite of Order. Everyone knows that if Good and Bad work together, we can defeat Evil. That's what's happened before, and it'll happen again" Ree said and smiled at Kerry. "Because we want our old friend and fellow Keeper back. We need someone to keep us good" Cashmon said.

Tigromon huffed weakly and the darkness disappeared.

Trip jumped at Ree and threw her to the ground. "Are you okay?" he asked. Ree blushed and pushed him. "Get off. We have other stuff to deal with" she said and quickly got up.

The Keepers stood behind they're digimon.

Tigromon looked at Kerry and a tear dropped from his eye. He glowed a black light and turned into two little eyes. The one was yellow with purple stripes, Spicmon's. The other was black with dark blue spots. Kerry bent down and pickd both the eggs up. His eyes searched the ground and found a pair of shoes, not really what he was looking for. He got up quickly and stared at Kae full of hatred.

"It's no use looking" Kae said. "It's not there." She gave a quiet laugh. "Why are you doing this?" Seni growled for no reason at all. The others looked at her then at Kae who shrugged.

"For the f…" she stopped. Starr had grabbed the scruff of her shirt and was holding it up.

"Don't give us that stupid 'because it's fun'. There's no reason anyone would kill other for fun" Starr yelled. Mitch put a hand on Starr's shoulder and pulled her away from Kae. "There's no reason for us to get mad at her" he said. Starr whipped around and slapped him. Mitch did nothing for a few seconds and then raised his hand to his cheek.

"Of course there is" Starr yelled. She wanted to continue yelling but Mai had walked over and slapped Kae too. Seimon smiled. "Yay, slapping party" he yelled and ran at Cashmon who growled stopping the dog.

Kae laughed quietly. "Do you really wanna know why? Why I did all this?" she asked. Mai glared at her as did the others. Kae continued laughing and then turned her head towards the Keepers. She took a few steps back. "You'll find out. You'll find out if you open the boxes" she said and disappeared.

"Where…?" began Lita and stood up but Kouji shook her head. "Even if you knew, it would make no difference."

"Don't you know what's in the boxes?" Trip asked towards Kouji. Kouji shook his head. "Nope, maybe it's just pot-purée" he said and grinned. Ree rolled her eyes.

"Very funny" she mumbled. "The only way to find out is to open the boxes" she said.

Ha, there. New chapter. Oh, now you're all really keen on the next chapter. Finally, the mystery of the boxes is opened and more other stuff too *nods* So have a nice wait for the next chapter but R&R of course ^^
