Chapter Ten

      Sam frowned as he looked at the sky, the world felt wrong today... and

he didn't know why. Today he was wearing a red sleveless sweatshirt and

tight black jeans, he didn't know why but he felt that he should wear these

colors... the ones he had worn as Ranma.

      'Is there going to be some confrontation today between the evil and

digidestined, I hope not because I don't think I'm ready' Sam thought

adjusting his glasses, he sighed and looked at his new wrist watch.

      "Damn... I still have three hours to kill before the digidestined get out

of school, what am I going to do till then," the fourteen year old mumbled to

himself, he idly wondered if he should go to school again... but that would

bring up to many questions on his identity.

      "Hey you," a voice shouted, startled Sam turned to see a turant officer

running towards him... but still had a long way to go.

      'He wants to know why I'm not at school, I better get away' Sam

thought with a slight frown, with those thoughts he used one of his

techniques and vanished from the street he was on.

***

      Ken sighed as he walked out of the school building after yet another

long day of classes, his grades were once again very high... yet not quite as

high as they had been under the dark spore.

      He now knew that the dark spore had been like cheating his way

through life, but even without it he was a genious... like Sam use to be.

      'Oh Sam, during that battle I felt as if you were there. I only wish I

could talk to you ine last time, to tell you how much I love you even if you

treated me badly sometimes' Ken thought sadly, he shook his head when he

felt tears come to his eyes.

      'I can't think of him now... he's been dead for awhile now, anyway I

have to meet the others' Ken thought, he was also trying to track down that

digimon Nekomon who had helped the others track him down to Heighten

View Terrace.

      'Who is Nekomon, I have to find out because he feels important' Ken

thought, and for an unknown reason he felt as if this digimon had a

connection to his departed brother.

***

      By now Sam was seriously considering to going back to school, with

days with nothing to do he was very bored.

      Sure he could of become Nekomon and spied on the kids at school but

that was boring also, he needed something to keep his mind occupied.

      'Before I almost died and youthened to live as Ranma by the crest of

miracles I had school work to keep me busy and lots of other things, and as

Ranma I had fights, training and school to keep me busy' a bored Sam

thought, he sighed and then spotted his quarry.

      Down below from his perch on a roof he could see Ken walking home

from school, he had one of those 'lost in the universe' looks on his face.

      'Poor kid, he had everything in the world going for him until he

realized that it was all do to the dark spore' Sam thought, he knew that Ken

was pulling the true him forward and was slowly bring what he truly

wanted to him.

      "Oh Ken, if only you knew you are becoming the person I wanted you

to be," Sam whispered, he smiled and watched Ken for a few more seconds.

***

      Ken spun around and stared at the buildings around him, he had felt

as if someone had been watching him. Frowning he looked at the rooftops

but saw nothing, he truly hoped it wasn't an evil digimon.

      'I can't take another evil digimon kidnapping me for awhile, hopefully

it was just my imagination' Ken thought with a sigh, then he turned around

in the direction he had been going and continued his way home... even if he

did walk a little faster.

***

      Sam sat on the park swing letting the wind blow through his short

slightly messy blue hair, he had followed his brother home and was relieved

to see that nothing had happened during that time.

      'I wish so badly I could go home with Ken but thats impossible, I love

them too much to hurt them by coming back' Sam thought, he shook his head

and decided to go roofhopping as Nekomon to clear his thoughts.

***

      Sam was started to become frustrated, he knew that something was

suppose to happen today... yet he didn't know what. His roofhopping had

taken him all the way to Odaiba and he did it in record time, once there he

changed back to his human body and started to walk around town.

      Earlier he had also changed into the clothing Gennai had giving him,

after awhile in his red and black asumble they had started to feel wrong.

      'Ken should be at that digidestined meeting for awhile more, I saw

him when he got to this area of Tokyo so I really have nothing to do' Sam

thought with a slightly depressed sigh, he found that when he came back to

his home dimention and got his real body back he was... bored quite alot.

      "Theres a park nearby if I remember right, I might as well head

there," Sam said to himself, he smiled slightly and started heading in that

direction.

***

      Ken stretched his legs as he exited Izzy's house after a meeting of all

the digidestined, he had almost been late because of trouble at the subway.

      "Hey Ken, were heading for the park, do you want to come with us?"

Davis asked coming up to the slim blue haired teen, Ken smiled at his friend

and nodded.

      "Sure, I just have to call mom and tell her where I'm going," Ken told

the spiky haired teen, Davis smiled and pointed to a nearby payphone.

***

      Sam smiled as he looked at the beautiful green park, children played

happily as there parents or grandparents watched. This was something he

enjoyed, he could remember times where he had gone to parks with Ken and

watched him play.

      It was then that he heard familliar voices and his eyes widened in

surprise, as if in slow motion he turned to see some people walking in his

direction... and one of them had frozen in shock.

      Eyes the same shade of blue met and stayed there, the world seemed

to freeze as the two brothers reconized each other.

      Sam felt his heart beat fast at the shock in Kens eyes, he had never

expected to meet his brother in this form or this way.

      "Osamu..." Ken whispered shock evident in his voice, Sam bit his lip as

he felt tears come to his eyes.

      "Kenny-boy," Sam whispered his brothers nickname for him, as he

watched Kens friends tried to find out what was going on.

      "Sam... " Ken whispered, Sam wanted so much to run to Ken and hug

him as a brother was suppose to... but he couldn't face his brother now.

      "I'm sorry Kenny-boy, not yet," he said and he knew Ken heard him,

with that he spun around and ran ignoring the tears falling down his face.

      "SAM!" Ken screamed from behind him, he knew Ken chased him but

with his surperior speed he soon lost everyone.

      'I'm sorry Ken, maby oneday we can be a family though' Sam thought

his heart broken, it hurt him just as much.

***

      Ken fell to his knees tears falling down his face, he was in shock but

he was also very confused. Sam his brother was alive and two years ago he

had seen him die, but there he had been right in front of him looking quite

healthy.

      'Why did Sam run, why did he run away from me.... why is this

happening' Ken thought, he was brought out of this by his friends voices.

      "Ken who was that, what just happened?" Kari asked witha concerned

frown, the others nodded also wanting to know.

      "My brother," he told them, there eyes widened and then he saw from

Yoleis face that she remembered something he had told her.

      "But isn't he..." she said and she trailed off, he nodded.

      "Dead, he's been dead for two years," he whispered, the others gasped

and soon helped him to his feet. They headed back to Izzy's, this new

development in there lives needed discusion... and Ken needed his friends to

comfort him.
