Chapter 5: To Defy Death
~Takuya's POV~
So we headed out once more into the digital world this time toward the
desert.
We first ran into the thunder dragon. And after we evaluated to our unified spirit form, the dragon kind of ran away.
"Okay," I said really confused.
"Err.what just happened?" Kouji asked.
Next thing we knew the dragon came back with his friend, the wind dragon.
To make matters worse they combined into one powerful dragon. With a single dragon we couldn't make a dent. Now what can we do against two in one?
So we attacked but nothing happened except we made it mad at us. To get its revenge, it grabbed our friends. Liz attacked its arm with a sword that kept getting bigger and bigger and the dragon let go. It aimed an attack at me and Kouji. We stood frozen to the spot. Just as it was about to hit us Liz covered us up. Once the attack ended Liz fell back into her human form passed out.
Her dragon data suddenly entered into Kouji and my d_terminal. We tried out the new power and just as we were digivolving we combined into one. We shared the same mind, body, everything. It was weird to be honest.
As we were about to demolish the dragon it used a double attack on us. Liz once again conscious moved swiftly in front of us. She took the full blast. Miraculously, she wasn't wiped out. She just laid on the ground her eyes wide open, motionless. It was like she was paralyzed.
"Let's hurry up and finish them off!" Kouji roared.
"Say it any louder! I mean I'm right next to you!" I exclaimed. With the new spirit's power we demolished the dragon.
Once we finished turning back into our human form Kouji gathered Liz in his arms. She coughed lightly.
~Kouji's POV~ "In a weak voice she said, "I'm about to leave this world. But I will remain here as a spirit to protect this world. I will shield it from the evil forces that once roamed here. I will depend on you to get rid of the new evil. And every time you step onto the battle field I will be there right next to you."
She suddenly glowed in a variety of lights and little by little, beginning at her arms she turned into little particles of data. I kissed her on the lips and held her tightly within my grasps. And as the kiss ended she was gone.
We went back into the real world on Trailmon. The ride was quite so I had the chance to get my thoughts clear. The others respected the fact I needed to be alone. So they talked quietly.
We walked out of the train station and I barely noticed. Someone that I loved died today. She was there for me since the beginning. Sure I only knew her for a short time, but to me it was like I grew up knowing her.
As we walked to the hospital everyone was quiet. And when I saw her motionless body the pressure between my eyes built. It looked like she was asleep but I knew that she would never wake up no matter how much I wanted her to.
When I got home I locked myself in my room and plopped down on my bed. Tears stung my eyes and they dropped softly onto the comforter one by one.
"Oh Kouji." I didn't look up. Who ever the person was I didn't want them to see me cry. "You really shouldn't shed tears over me." That voice was soo familiar yet soo foreign. I looked up.
Liz was standing there, slightly transparent in an ancient Japanese kimono with bows and arrows, and a sword. She sat lightly on my bed and her soft hands wiped my wet tears away.
"How come you're here? Why didn't you accent into heaven?"
"Because I want to be with you from now to the end. And I wanted to give you something." Her hands glowed and three silver bubbled appeared. "These are my other three spirits, mystic, phoenix, and warrior. I want you to have them." They entered into my d_terminal.
"Thank you."
"This way you will always remember I'm with you in battle."
We talked the night away. I'm not going to tell you the rest of our conversation, it was personal. She was my only comfort and my angel.
And still in the middle of the night I hear her voice reminding me that her love would never leave me. I still remember her telling me she would rather drift by my side forever as a spirit than rise into the heavens without me. And as I stay awake in the night I feel her presence and know that I am not alone.
People say lives are forever, and sometimes I wonder as I stare into a starry sky, I wonder if her life ended too soon. I'll always remember the day I met her. And her memory will always reside within my heart.
