In Between Evil and Love

By: Sakura Kinomoto and Skye

Chapter 3: Betrayal or Love?

Via was pushed into a room. At the same time, the Digidestined entered a room. An evil laugh was heard. They all looked up. There on a large chair sat Myotismon.

                As soon as Via saw him, she flared, "What do you want, you monster?"

                "Tsk, tsk, tsk. Via Mihara, that is no way to talk to your master. Well, you did do a good job of bringing the Digidestined here. What do you want?"

                Via's eyes widened, "What do you mean? I am no longer your slave. I'm Vivian Mihara, master of myself! I did not bring the Digidestined to you, I brought here to destroy you!" She looked at the Digidestined. Some were looking at her with looks of questions, some with hate, but the one that hurt her the most was the glare of hatred Matt was giving her.

                Matt thought in his mind, "That sneak! She was acting in front of me. She never liked me! Argh!"

                "You have to believe me! I'm not working for him! The stone..." she faltered. She realized what Demidevimon meant by she can never betray Myotismon. They painted her stone so it will never be red! She glared as Myotismon. "You painted my stone, you sneak! It's supposed to be dark red, not black. No, it's supposed to be red!"

                "Haha!" laughed Myotismon. "I will destroy the Digidestined one by one." He aimed his attack at Tai.

                "No!" screamed Via. She rushed foward wanting to save Tai but Myotismon's henchmen grabbed hold of her, not letting her go. She helplessly watched as the attack was about to hit Tai. Fortunately Gabumon and Agumon digivolved and saved Tai but both were hurt.

                Then Myotismon aimed at Matt. Via screamed. She couldn't let Matt get hurt! She struugled out of the digimons' grips and rushed forward. She used her body body to cover Matt's and the attack hit her. "Via!" shouted Matt.

                The whole group rushed towards Matt and Via. Via laid limp in Matt's arms. "Via, wake up!" said Matt, patting her face. He was on the verge of tears. He can't lose her, not now!

                Via opened her eyes slowly. "Matt...," she whispered. "I...love you." Then she closed her eyes and her head dropped. Everyone stared at Via, wide-eyed. Was she gone, just like that? T.K. shook Via's body, not believing. "Via...wake up. Don't leave us." But there was no answer.

                During that time, Myotismon planned to leave and go to the real world to find the eight child. He left sneakily but not sneaky enough.

                "Hey, where are you going?" shouted Izzy. The whole group looked up.

"You're not leaving!" shouted Matt angrily. "Give Via back to me!"

                Myotismon laughed. "Too late. She's dead. I will now go to the real world and you'll be stuck here!"

                "No, you won't go!" said Tai. All the digimon digivolved to their ultimate level (if they can) and started fighting. Matt and Via was left to be alone.

                "You can't leave," Matt whispered into Via's ear. He gently kissed her forehead and then kissed her pale lips. Suddenly, his crest glowed. All the other Digidestined's crests glowed as well. Light surrounded Via and her pale face changed back to normal skin colour. Her body felt warmer as well. Her chest moved up and down as she breathed peacefully.

                While all the Digidestined and their digimon watched in joy, Myotismon watched in horrid. The paint on Via's stone peeled off like a sticker. The stone turned to bright red and broke into pieces, falling on the ground.

                Myotismon immediately fled to the door that will lead him to the reeal world. The other Digidestined followed him. Matt slowly stood up with Via in his arms. "We will win this fight no matter what!"

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

                The Digidestined watched as VenomMyotismon become million of pieces and vanished into thin air. "Hooray! We have beaten Myotismon!" All the Digidetined cheered as they finally beat Myotismon in the real world with their new group memebers, Kari and Gatomon.

                Matt smiled. "Finally," he thought. He turned around and walked towards the girl that has waited for him since the fight began. He gave Via a tight hug. She hugged back. "Finally..." they both said. They gave each other a look and laughed.

                "So will you date me now?" asked Matt.

                "Maybe..." answered Via playfully.

                "Maybe? Are you sure? You do...." A gasp of surprise from the others cut him off. "What now?"

                Joe pointed at the sky. The two looked up and gasped two at what they saw. The sky was showing another dimension!

                As others tried to figure out what was all the sky was about, Matt and Via looked at each other. "Does that mean you'll leave again?" asked Via depressingly.

                "I think so, but don't sound so depress. I'll come back."

                Via nodded, "I'll cheer for you."

                Matt laughed. "Yeah." He kissed her forehead. "Wait for me."

                "Yo, Matt! It's the Digiworld. Something's happened. We're got to find out find what," said Tai.

                "Okay," replied Matt. Then Via pulled him in a long kiss. "I'll miss you."

                Matt stepped into the light from the digivice with the rest of the gang. "Bye Via! Miss you!"

                Via looked up towards Matt. "Me too! Love you!"

_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_

                "Are you sure you won't leave all of a sudden again?"

                "I'm sure. All evil are destroyed."

                "Really?"

                "Yes."

                Silence...shh! The couple is too busy right now to talk. They haven't had a proper kiss yet!

_*_*_*_*_*_The End_*_*_*_*_*_

Author's Note: Here I am again…just need to mention that the ending takes place in some episodes…those parts were not mentioned like how they found Kari and how they got back to the real world…you can all just imagine Via's part in them…oh yeah…they met Via before going to Gennai's finding out about the cards and stuff…and the cave happened after they left Gennai's…doesn't really make sense but oh well…The character Katrina I had in my other story never appeared until they went back to the Digiworld…so yeah…I think that's it…remember to R+R!!!!!!!!
