I Stand with One Chapter 9: Fade Away, a digimon fanfic

ELP: This took an extremely long time to write because 1: I had lots of company, 2, my internet services were really bad, and 3, well, there really is no 3..... Anyway, I do not own Digimon, or any of the lyrics in this fic. Some belong to huge music people, and are just used in this fic. No body sue me, I have nothing.

Akaimia blinked.

" Don't worry, everyone, you aren't the only ones who don't understand them. What time is it, anyway?" She asked, looking around. Davis checked his watch.

" It's 11 am." Akaimia turned on the TV and switched the channel.

" You guys don't mind music, do you?" Everyone shook their head.

" Don't mind at all." Miyako stated. Akaimia smirked.

" Hey, It's one of Mom's band's videos!" Akaimia exclaimed, turning up the volume.

*ON TV*

' Feel Good Time' By the Dragons.

{ Picture the video by Pink, except with Kari playing pink and not as skimpy and not leaping on top of the guy after she cloths lines him.}

{ Cloths Lines Takeru }

[Chorus]

Now our time, a real good time,
(doo doo, doo doo, doo doo..)

Now our time, a real good time
(doo doo, doo doo, doo doo..)

Now our time, (I Said our Time),
A real good time (It's a really good time!}

Hey, I'd be all mine...

We know how to pray,
Party everyday,
Make our desolation unplain.........

Riding in a rut,
Till the powers cut,
We don't even have a good name

Sleeping in the church,
Riding in the dirt,
Put a banner over my grave

Make a body work,
Make a beggar hurt,
Sell me something big and untamed

[Chorus]

...Now our time, a real good time, ooh
(doo doo, doo doo, doo doo..)
Now our time, a real good time
(doo doo........)
Now our time, (Now It's our time), a real good time

Hey I'd be all mine....

Doo doo doo doo....baby....I can fly...yeah
(Sell me something big and untamed)

Now are time, a real good time ......oh,
(Doo doo, doo doo, doo doo, doo)
Now our time (I Said It's our Time),
(Doo doo, doo doo, doo doo)
Real good time (It's a really good time)
Now are time, a real good time .....

Feel good,
Real good, It's the same old same

Real good,
Feel good, don't got no more brains

Feel good,
Real good, It's the same old same....yeah

Feel good,
Real good, I don't got no more brain!

Hey, I'd be all mine....

Miyako blinked.

" Wow, Kari, you've got a good right arm. I never knew you could do that!" Miyako laughed. Kari went red.

" Me neither." She answered, still red. Takeru gulped.

" Geez. That must have hurt....." Blood Eagle, Walker, and another person walked into the room, all soaking wet. It was pouring rain outside. Blood Eagle shook her head wildly, the water spraying mostly on Walker. Walker blinked, drying off as best he could. Akaimia and Wayne leapt up, running up to the new person.

" Auntie Kari!" They exclaimed. The Older Kari picked them up and walked in, despite the fact that she was soaked.

" Hey, kids. What are you watching?" She asked, putting the kids down. Wayne smiled.

" Mommy and your band!" He exclaimed, sitting back down on the couch. Older Kari laughed, while the younger Kari was just staring. Older Kari had long hair, about Miyako's length, and now wore darker clothing, along with a black wristband that had the symbol of Life, Light and Anger in white on it. She was currently wearing a dark red vest with a dark pink shirt underneath, and black jeans. She also had some, to put it simply, ass-kicker boots on. Literally. They were laced in the front, and went up to just below her knee. Older Kari finally dried out her hair, but was still soaked.

" Awe, geez. Soaked to the rim. " She sighed, and then stared at the younger Kari.

" Hey, I think I know what's going on here....... You remember, right Ken?" She turned to walker. He nodded.

" Yeah, I do. You kids keep watching TV." The 3 older adults went down the hall way, and into a room. The kids thought nothing of it. Akaimia smiled again.

" Hey, it's Dad's Fade video! This one is really cool!" She exclaimed, turning up the volume. They all stared at the dark video.

*VIDEO*

Fade, by the Dragons.

Darkness. Kari, Ken, Takeru, and Miyako were in a clock tower, playing their instruments. Miyako played the drums, Ken on Base and main vocals, Kari on electric Guitar, and Takeru on classic guitar. The music was slightly sad, yet turned to rock in a split second, but still not too loud, then back to then slow part. Emotion was on all of their faces, and at every fast part, the clock tower's walls would break open a little at a time, switching back and forth between images of childhood kid, teen kid, and then adult person, all of them sad. A pendulum was swinging in the background, making it all seem darker.

I try to breathe
Memories overtaking me
I try to face them but
The thought is too much to conceive

I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the same
So now I step out of the darkness
that my life became 'cause

I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made

So where were you?
When all this I was going through
You never took the time
To ask me just what you could do

I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the same
So now I step out of the darkness
that my life became 'cause

I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made

I never meant to fade...
Away

I NEVER MEANT TO FADE!!! { A/N: All of the group in one part}

I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made

I try to breathe...

The song ended with the pendulum still swinging, and the group slowly fading away.

* END OF VIDEO*

Ken blinked.

" Whoa, really intense, I guess." He stated, stunned how well it was all done. The adults walked back into the room.

" Well, we've found away to get everyone back home. But, before we do that, everyone have lunch. Kari, Ken, can we talk to you for a moment?" Kari and Ken stood up, and followed the Older Kari and walker into a room while Blood Eagle started to make lunch, slipping something into the Digidestined's drinks. When Kari and Ken entered the room with their older selves, they were both wondering what was going on.

" What's going on?" Ken asked, looking around a bit. Walker sighed, and Older Kari slumped down into a chair.

" Okay, number one, don't drink anything Blood Eagle offers you. It's a bit of a test. When you go back, the others won't remember this day. Number 2, when you get back home, do not let Miyako out of your sights very often. Stick by her as a great friend like we did. And 3..... Both of you have to meet occasionally. Keep an eye out on Miyako, and see if you notice anything different. If she starts wearing long gloves, or wristbands, maybe try to figure out what she's hiding. Check and see if there are any new visible scars and stuff like that." Kari blanched.

" Is something going to happen?" Older Kari nodded.

" Her dad died about 3 days ago, right?" The young kids nodded.

" Then in one day, her mom will go into the hospital, and then the next morning, she will die. Miyako, and I know this as a fact, was born not crying, and has never cried,{ Just believe it, she never balled when Hawkmon got hurt or any of that, just for say} until that day. She didn't cry at the hospital when it happened, but as soon as you guys and her went into your room, broke down. She had sung a song for her little sister, Mitsue, and it haunts me to this day. I can still here the echo bouncing around in my head." Older Kari stated, wiping her eyes a few times. Ken ran his hand through his hair, and looked grave, and Kari had both hands on her face.

" I can't believe it......" She whispered, looking up. Walker sighed.

" I didn't either. But stick by her at all times. And remember, there is always a light at the end of every tunnel. Just some tunnels are longer then others, and some have trains that pull you back. Okay, now, let's go eat, but don't drink anything." The two kids nodded, and started to walk out, when Kari turned around.

" Hey, I hate to ask and be rude, but where did you get those boots?" She asked, blushing. Older Kari laughed.

" Miyako bought them for me on me birthday. I've worn them ever since. I've had to get them re-sized at least 5 times. She got them for me when I was 13. Oh yeah, here, take a copy of our album, Fading Away. And learn to sing, 'cause you're going to be famous if you do." Kari nodded, and tucked the CD in her backpack. They walked out of the room, and ate the lunch, but didn't drink anything. Then, they stared when the other 4 people passed out because of the drink. Blood Eagle, Walker and Older Kari threw them all on the living room floor, while Ken and Kari just stood in the middle. They waved goodbye, and were teleported to Ken's house, right onto his bedroom floor. They all woke up, and looked around, shrugging and blinking.

" Well, that's that. I've got an idea. Me, Ken, and Miyako go and fix the bridge root of the lake, and you guys fix Primary village!" Kari exclaimed, getting sucked into the Digiworld with Ken and Miyako. They landed near the bridge, and looked around. Perfect, no one around. Kari turned to Ken and Miyako.

" Okay, Miyako, we need to talk. I just want you to know that Ken and I will always be there for you, no matter what. Okay?" Miyako nodded, keeping emotion down.

" Okay, sounds great. So, we have to fix THIS bridge?!?!" Miyako exclaimed, staring up at all the damage. It was a huge bridge, with a lot of Damage. Ken nodded.

" Yup. Don't worry, I managed to grab my music blaster. Kari, didn't you say you had a CD with you?" Miyako raised an eyebrow, not getting the weirdness between Kari and Ken. Kari pulled out a CD.

" This one is called, Fading Away, by the Dragons. Here, pop it in. We'll work to music." Ken hit the play button, and a storm was playing, and then a fast paced music. It seemed very loud. They started to work, placing stones and hammering in wood planks.

Don't Stay

Sometimes I
Need to remember just to Breathe
Sometimes I
Need you to stay away from me
Sometimes I'm
In disbelief I didn't know
Somehow I
Need you to go

Don't stay
Forget Our memories
Forget Our Possibilities
What you were changing me into
{Just give me myself back and}
Don't Stay
Forget Our memories
Forget Our Possibilities
Take All your Faithlessness with you
{Just give me myself back and}
Don't Stay

Sometimes I
Feel Like I trusted you
Sometimes I
Just feel like Screaming at Myself
Sometimes I'm
In disbelief I didn't know
Somehow I
Need to be alone

Don't stay
Forget Our memories
Forget Our Possibilities
What you were changing me into
{Just give me myself back and}
Don't Stay
Forget Our memories
Forget Our Possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
{Just give me myself back and}
Don't Stay

I Don't Need you anymore
I don't want to be ignored
I don't need one more day
Of you wasting me away

With no Apologies

Don't stay
Forget Our memories
Forget Our Possibilities
What you were changing me into
{Just give me myself back and}
Don't Stay
Forget Our memories
Forget Our Possibilities
Take all your faithlessness with you
{Just give me myself back and}
Don't Stay

Miyako blinked.

" Hey, this is pretty good. Where did you get this, Kari?" She asked, nailing in a plank. Kari shrugged.

" I was rooting through my stuff and I found it." Ken sweat dropped at the near pathetic explanation, but then turned back to placing stones and rocks in place. Another song started. It was slower then the last one, and had very nice tones. Pretty good music.

Somewhere I belong

When this began
I had nothing to say
And I'd get lost in the nothingness inside of me
I was confused
And I let it all out to find /that I'm
Not the only person with these things in mind
Inside of me
But all the vacancy the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I've got left to feel
Nothing to lose
Just stuck/hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own

I want to heal
I want to feel
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
[Erase all the pain 'til it's gone] I want to heal
I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

And I've got nothing to say
I can't believe I didn't fall right down on my face
I was confused
Looking everywhere/only to find that it's
Not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
So what am I
What do I have but negativity
'Cause I can't justify the
Way everyone is looking at me
Nothing to lose
Nothing to gain/hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
The fault is my own

I will never know
Myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel
Anything else until my wounds are healed
I will never be
Anything 'til I break away from me
And I will break away
I'll find myself today

I want to heal
I want to feel like I'm
Somewhere I belong

Kari blinked. In the music, it was obvious that it was Ken singing. I wonder if Miyako figured it out by now, or is just choosing to ignore it, like a coincidence.......... Kari though, kicking a rock into place. Now, a good beat and surfing kind of music started to play.

Feel Good Time

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo.....
[laughs]

We go where we like,
We got over time,
We get paid to rattle our chains

We go in the back,
Paint our money black,
Spend it on the enemy

Sleeping in the church,
Riding in the dirt,
Put a banner over my grave

Make a body work,
Make a beggar hurt,
Sell me something big and untamed

[Chorus]

Now our time, a real good time,
(doo doo, doo doo, doo doo..)

Now our time, a real good time
(doo doo, doo doo, doo doo..)

Now our time, (I Said our Time),
A real good time (It's a really good time!}

Hey, I'd be all mine...

We know how to pray,
Party everyday,
Make our desolation unplain.........

Riding in a rut,
Till the powers cut,
We don't even have a good name

Sleeping in the church,
Riding in the dirt,
Put a banner over my grave

Make a body work,
Make a beggar hurt,
Sell me something big and untamed

[Chorus]

...Now our time, a real good time, ooh
(doo doo, doo doo, doo doo..)
Now our time, a real good time
(doo doo........)
Now our time, (Now It's our time), a real good time

Hey I'd be all mine....

Doo doo doo doo....baby....I can fly...yeah
(Sell me something big and untamed)

Now are time, a real good time ......oh,
(Doo doo, doo doo, doo doo, doo)
Now our time (I Said It's our Time),
(Doo doo, doo doo, doo doo)
Real good time (It's a really good time)
Now are time, a real good time .....

Feel good,
Real good, It's the same old same

Real good,
Feel good, don't got no more brains

Feel good,
Real good, It's the same old same....yeah

Feel good,
Real good, I don't got no more brain!

Hey, I'd be all mine....

Miyako put the hammer down.

" Okay, is it just me, or is that Kari singing that song, and Ken singing the last 2 before that?" Miyako asked Hawkmon. Hawkmon shrugged.

" It does sound familiar..... Oh well, let's just get this bridge down. A very slow and quiet song started to play, sounding very lonely and sad.

My December

This is my December..............
This is my time of the year..........
This is my December..........
This is all so clear.........
This is my December.............
This is my snow covered home...........
This is my December...........
This is me alone..............

And I
Just wish that
I didn't feel
Like there was
Something I missed
And I
Take back all
The things I said
To make you
Feel like that
And I
Just wish that
I didn't feel
Like there was
Something I missed
And I
Take back all the
Things I said to you

And I give it all away
Just to have somewhere
To go to
Give it all away
To have someone
To come home to

This is my December......
These are my snow covered dreams.........
This is me pretending......
This is all I need......

And I
Just wish that
I didn't feel
Like there was
Something I missed
And I
Take back all
The things I said
To make you feel like that
And I
Just wish that
I didn't feel
Like there was
Something I missed
And I
Take back all the things
I said to you

And I give it all away
Just to have
Somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone
To come home to

This is my December........
This is my time of the year........
This is my December............
This is all so clear...........

And I give it all away
Just to have somewhere
To go to
Give it all away
To have someone
To come home to.......

They finished the bridge, and went back to Ken's house, turning off the CD. Ken blinked for a moment, and smiled.

" Hey, Kari, since this is kind of Miyako's house, how about you sleep over? Eh, Miyako?" Miyako nodded.

" Yeah, that'd be cool. Hey, I hate to ask, but why are you guys acting so funny? I mean, really now?" Ken and Kari sweat dropped, pulling at their collars.

" Um, well, I, uh, um, no reason!" The exclaimed, trying to cover up the fact that they new the future and she didn't. Miyako crossed her arms.

" Whatever."

ELP: What will happen the next day? Will the future really come true?

Sammy: R&R!
