Hey everyone! I guess that some of you are pretty eager to read what happens to Takuya and Izumi right? But before I get to my "explanation", I want to thank everyone who has reviewed my story and those who have continued to since I began this story. Without you guys, this story would have died.

Anyways now you're wondering when I'm getting to the next chapter, right? Well sorry to disappoint you but this chapter will not tell you. *crowd yells "booooooooo!!!"* This is because I'm having problems choosing which ending to publish. Well since I trust the public :95% hehe I want you guys to decide!

But before we continue again, I have to say I might be busy within the next week. Because I am currently working on a story for each couple: Taiora, Daikari, and Rukato. Since I already have a Takumi story, I want to write a story for each couple from every season. That is because the next major story will be sequel for each couple story. It will decide the fate of all four couples and besides, I wanted to make a point in the sequel.

So you ask when will the BIG story come out? Right after I finish all 4 stories of my fave couples! I'm going to start on the production of it after I finish Rukato. The stories will arrive in this order: Daikari, Rukato and last but not least, Taiora!

Okay! Now that the future is covered, let's get back to the present! The ending is a tie... Unfortunately, it's to decide should Takuya really leave? To decide which ending or if I should have two endings, I'm letting everyone vote! So I'll let you get a sneak preview at the endings!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

ENDING #1: (this ending might take 2-3 chapters)

'Wow... Takuya's really left. But I am happy to know that he loves me back and that he'll only be gone for one year. I hope I can make new friends even though I know that Kouichi, Hikari and the rest of the gang will help me through it.' Izumi thought sadly... 'I know that I can be strong even though the love of my life is gone...'

Izumi sighed and got ready to go to school. She, Kouji, Hikari, and Kouichi were all in the same grade- sophomore (10th grade). Junpei was ahead of them a year and Tomoki was still in elementary. (Sorry I kind of forgot his age)

Izumi and Hikari were two of the most popular girls in school now. Takuya was also one of the soccer team's star players and still is even if he did moved away temporarily.

***

"Good morning Izumi!" Kouichi said cheerfully.

"Morning Kouichi" Izumi replied.

Kouichi knew what was wrong. She was again thinking about Takuya Kanbara.

"Cheer up Izumi!" Kouichi smiled. "You know Takuya wouldn't want you to be unhappy while he's gone!"

"You're right! He'll be back in my arms before I know it!" Izumi smiled. 'Kouichi is such a great friend. He understands my feelings about Takuya like no one else. I'm so lucky to have him help me through this!'

"Now let's get to homeroom before the bell rings!" Kouichi grinned.

Izumi nodded and walked with Kouichi to their homeroom.

***

"Good morning Class!" Izumi's homeroom teacher, Ms. Muramoto announced.

Izumi sighed. She had Ms. Muramoto as her homeroom teacher before and she thought her teacher was boring but very nice.

"Here are your class schedules for your sophomore year!" (sorry I don't know if they have sophomore, junior and that stuff!)

***

Kouichi asked, "Hey Izumi! What classes do you have?"

She replied, " Let's see... I have English, Italian, Science, Math, P.E.and History. You?

"History, P.E., Science, Math, Journalism, and English." Kouichi chuckled. "Guess we have two classes together."

"Let's ask Kouji what classes he has at snack!" Izumi suggested.

"Attention Class!" Ms. Muramoto yelled.

*silence in the room*

"We have a new student present today! Please come in Sakura!" The teacher gestured. "Class This is Sakura Kinomoto! (sorry didn't what last name for her.)"

Izumi analyzed her. She was a girl that had long light brown hair with some dark highlights. She wore the school uniform and had emerald green eyes.

Izumi thought she was looked very nice. (Even though, Izumi is a popular girl, she is still the same sweet, caring girl we all know and love!)

"Sakura please go sit in front of Izumi." Ms. Muramoto calmly said.

Izumi raised her hand and Sakura greeted her politely.

Sakura bowed, "Nice to meet you Izumi!"

"Same here!" Izumi smiled.

*** (I'm skipping around to get to cliffhanger)

Izumi, Hikari, and Sakura were all best friends and still very popular in school. Izumi had known Hikari since second grade. She and Takuya were her bestest friends. But Takuya was different, he was someone Izumi loved more than as a friend.

It was nice Autumn day in the month of November. Izumi, Hikari, and Sakura were practicing their Pep Squad moves at Hikari's house. They had to practice since there was an upcoming soccer game. Little did Izumi know, Hikari and Sakura had a big surprise for their best friend. Izumi had told them about Takuya and their relationship. But Hikari who already knew about Takuya, just listened about the love part.

***

Everyone except Izumi, knew that Takuya was coming back during the third week of November.

Davis and Kouji had made sure that no one reveal that their best friend was coming back.

They were to reveal him at the upcoming soccer game. After all, Davis and Takuya were the best players on their team.

Davis and Kouji went to meet their girlfriends at Hikari's house.

***

"Hey Hikari-chan!" Davis, Hikari's one and only boyfriend yelled. "Hey Dai-kun!" Hikari ran to meet him.

They hugged and kissed. Kouji ran to his cherry blossom and kissed her.

Hikari and Davis had been dating for a year now and would continue to do so because they loved each other.

Kouji and Sakura had been dating every since they had laid eyes on each other. Sakura had been able to always make Kouji smile and he loved her spirit and her kindness too.

*** (skipping again)

It was the day of the big soccer match. Kouji and the gang had wished Davis and Takuya good luck. They would cheer from the sidelines.

Tomoki couldn't wait for his onii-chan to surprise Izumi and everyone else in the audience.

Practically the whole staff at school knew. Everyone except a group of people didn't know about Takuya's big appearance.

Izumi, Sakura, and Hikari joined their fellow cheerleaders where their team was.

The cheerleaders were dressed with a sleeveless light pink dress with lavender long gloves. (think of CC Sakura's cheerleading outfit)

They had white and lavender pom- poms.

***

After the announcer had announced all the players. It was time for the next surprise.

"Everyone! Please welcome back Shibuya High School's #1 star soccer player, *drum roll* TAKUYA KANBARA!!" The announcer yelled.

The audience clapped and screamed as loud as they could.

Izumi gasped.

There he was. The love of her life, he walked out in normal soccer uniform and smiled to everyone.

Izumi could hear girls screaming the loudest. She chuckled. It was because girls were always falling for Takuya.

Takuya had changed. His hair had grown a little bit longer and his hair darker. He grew taller and had looked more handsome.

***

Izumi was sitting outside the locker room with the whole gang, waiting for Takuya and Davis to come out.

'What should I say to him? I haven't seen him for so long! I wonder if Takuya even still has feelings for me...' Izumi was distracted from her thoughts when she felt a gentle tap on her shoulder.

"Hey Izumi!" Takuya smiled.

"Takuya!" Izumi hugged him and started crying. "It's been too long! I've missed you so much!"

"Don't cry! I'm back! Takuya assured.

Izumi took a look at Takuya and noticed how much he had changed. He wasn't wearing the same old clothes before. He wore a brown leather jacket, a red shirt that had a dragon on it, and baggy blue jeans. But there was still one thing that didn't change. He still wore his goggles and his tan hat.

"Wow! You have changed!" Izumi laughed.

"Well... how's it been?" Takuya grinned. "I see you have made new friends."

Takuya pointed at Hikari and Sakura.

"Yeah... You know Hikari of course and Sakura- I've known her since she came here."

"Onii-chan!!" Tomoki came out of nowhere and tackled his "brother"

"Aah!" Takuya shouted falling backwards.

He laughed, "Hey Tomoki! I guess you missed me huh?"

"You bet I did!"

Takuya smiled, "Hey Kouichi and Junpei! Long time no see right?

"Hey!"

"Well I gotta go, my parents are expecting me." Hikari said. "I'll see you tomorrow Izumi! Bye everyone!"

"I'll walk you home, Hikari-chan!" Davis ran after his girlfriend.

"Same here. I have to go. Bye everyone! Nice meeting you Takuya! Sakura smiled. "Wanna come Kouji?"

"Sure why not?" Kouji laughed.

Izumi, Takuya, Kouichi, Tomoki, and Junpei: Bye!

"Well we'll leave you guys alone to catch up on old times!" Kouichi suggested. "We'll see you tomorrow guys! Let's go Tomoki, Junpei!"

"Bye!!"

It was just Takuya and Izumi.

They went to sit down on a bench.

"So... Izumi how have you been?" Takuya smiled his biggest smile. His smile still made Izumi melt inside.

"Well I've been okay." Izumi smiled back. "Will you walk me home?"

"Sure." Takuya grinned. "Are you seeing anyone?"

"Nope! How about you? Izumi asked curiously.

Takuya chuckled, "Of course not!"

Izumi laughed, "Well I'll see you tomorrow in the Digital World! (they could return back to the Digital World now anytime they pleased.)"

Takuya smiled, "Yeah..." He walked her up the steps and kissed her on the lips.

Izumi returned the passionate kiss but then Takuya broke it off after a while.

She went in and waved good-bye to her love and closed the door.

"Good-bye my love..." Takuya whispered and continued home.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---

Well what do you think? I think it might take 2 chapters the most.

To our next ending!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ENDING #2: (maybe one chapter)

This ending is a simple one actually. So I'll just tell a brief way.

Instead of leaving with his family, Takuya stays with Kouji during the year that they're gone. He continues to date Izumi.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That's it. I didn't really like this ending but I did it so that maybe some people would prefer that Takuya stay. The first has more than what I've revealed to you.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---
