Sora stared with open eyes at the totally disfigured face of Matt. His mouth was bent at a horrible angle and his eyes seemed to melt into his skin. His hair was not the beautiful blond hair she had seen the angel Matt with, no this hair was black and seemed to only stick out of certain places on the mans head.
Sora felt sick. She held her mouth to prevent herself from throwing up.
That was when Matt finally spoke.
"Sora..." His voice had changed. It sounded like the voice of a desperate man. A man that had nothing left in the world except agony and pain. "Sora.... you don't know what I've been through."
Sora stared at Matt coldly. Her mind wanted to scream at him "YOU DON'T HAVE A CLUE ABOUT WHAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH, EITHER!" But the fact that her mouth was about to burst with a full stream of puke held her back. Instead she just stared at him and waited for his full explanation and the truth about what was going on.
"Sora..... it's been so long." He stared at her with his disfigured eyes. "It's been months since I've seen you... and ... and you don't know what I've been through."
Sora opened her mouth. She had had it. She threw up on the vortex like floor that was somehow supporting her weight and then she wiped her mouth with her sleeve and screamed at Matt.
"STOP TELLING ME ABOUT YOUR SORRY LIFE....MATT. YOU DON'T HAVE A CLUE ABOUT WHAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH!" Sora felt tears fall from her eyes and as she looked up at Matt, they flew with furry down her face. "I've been through hell since you died. And now I see you alive before me..." Sora held her throbbing head in her palms. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON MATT?"
Matt looked at Sora with wide eyes. He must have realized what he should be saying because the truth finally came out.
"Sora... on that night. That night after the concert...... I was driving home. I was a little drunk, and I had my laptop on in the passenger side of the car. I was checking my mail while I was driving you could say" Matt chuckled at that, as if he thought it was totally stupid. Then his eyes got series. "I didn't see the child....... Sora. There was a little boy on the road......" Matt's eyes got a distant look in them. "He was walking across the road and I saw him at the last minute......and I turned the steering wheel.....and I ended up bashing into a pole." Matt shivered, and Sora had the sudden urge to hug him, but then the whole impact of her suicide attempt made her turn pale and not want to look at him again.
"Sora the car erupted into flames...." Matt fingered his face, tracing the many scars and rippled lines of skin. "I was being burned alive Sora........the pain was horrible." A light liquid started to film Matt's eyes. It must have been the closest he could get to crying.
"I screamed like I never had before...but then I heard a voice Sora. I heard a voice." Matt's eyes came back into focus and he looked past Sora. "Sora I heard the voice of Devimon. He told me he could help me.......he could help me live." Matt's bent mouth became even more bent as he tried to grin. "Sora....... I made a deal with Devimon, I made a deal that had I not made......I would have been dead."
Matt then looked up at Sora, his eyes focused on her and he seemed to be taking in her figure. His eyes traced Sora's body and she held herself as a shiver went up her spine.
"I was transported to the digital world right after I agreed to do what Devimon had wished of me. I was then helped by Devimon's comrades and I was given clothing and after I saw my face..... I was offered a mask." Matt pulled his mask from his hand and stretched it, and then pulled it down across his face. He stared at Sora through the holes made for his eyes. "Sora...... the deal that I had made with Devimon was also a little disappointing." Matt started to walk forward, taking slow steps towards Sora. " My love..... .I was not allowed to return to the real world." Sora shivered as Matt called her by a name she had not heard him use for so long.
Matt stopped. He held himself as if trying to control something that wanted to get out. "You don't know how that made me feel!" Matt started to shiver. "I was not allowed to return to my world! Or to my friends.........my family...... but most of all, I was not allowed to return to you." Matt stopped shivering, and then continued his slow walk towards Sora. "I was to sit for long tedious hours in front of the giant computer Devimon had designed for me...... I was to program the merging of the worlds........"
Sora's eyebrows connected in confusion. "The merging of the worlds?"
Matt had walked up to her now. He placed his hands on her shoulders and looked down at her as he talked. "Sora....... I was to design the merging of the worlds so that one day Devimon could control both. He wanted complete power....... so I had to give it to him. It was my duty." Matt stopped and then looked around himself. "Sora........ I knew that you wouldn't be able to live without me, so I connected the outcome of the worlds to the way your life grew." Matt turned back to Sora, and she could have sworn that he was grinning under the mask. "It was only a matter of time until you chose to die......and that was the time that I would enter the virus. The virus that has connected you to the whole universe." Matt started to laugh insanely. "Sora..... It was an ingenious plan...........when you fell to your almost certain death everything clicked into motion. The worlds went crazy. The real world and the digital."
Matt waved his right hand across the colourful vortex they were in and it all changed. Sora saw chaos. Buildings were sprouting up in the digital world and people were everywhere. There were confused digimon running all over the place, trying to control everything that was going on. Sora started to shake with horror. 'Was this what she had done?'
Looking up at the masked face of Matt, Sora realized that no that was wrong. Matt had done it. Not her...... Matt. Sora burned with anger. She looked up at the man in fiery. She raised her hand and slapped him, hard, across the face.
"HOW DARE YOU DO THIS MATT! HOW DARE YOU!!"
Matt staggered backwards and steadied himself as the shock of what had just happened dawned on him. "Sora...."
"DON'T SAY MY NAME!" Sora started walking backwards, away from Matt. "Don't say my name....." Tears started to flow down her face.
Matt looked at her and then outstretched his arms. He walked to her, and Sora turned and started to run. "DON'T COME NEAR ME YOU MONSTER!" She ran blindly and Matt called after her.
"Sora! No! You don't understand..... You have to stay here! You can't go! Don't run Sora!! You're disrupting the flow of events......... everything is going to go wrong!! SORA!"
The young woman ran. Wind whisked by her face and blew her tears from it. She couldn't tell where she ran, but she didn't care. As long as it was away from Matt. The monster that she had thought she had loved. Tai was way better than him. At least he wouldn't have sacrificed the lives of millions for his. As she thought more and more about Tai, Sora realized how badly she wanted to be with him. "Oh Tai......." Sora whimpered as she ran. "Tai if only you knew that I still love you. If only you knew what was going on. If only.....if only I could be with you."
The wind that rushed by Sora picked up and as the girl stopped with confusion she felt her feet lift off the ground. A blinding white light surrounded her and Sora felt herself fall.....fall into nothingness.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Voices. Sora heard voices. They seemed familiar to her and as she opened her eyes and sat up she finally realized why.
"Sora!"
The young woman looked around. She lay on a blanket in a campsite. At least it looked like a campsite. There was a fire and people sat around the fire. Only there was someone who sat beside her too. Sora looked up at the person, as he was the one that called her name when she had sat up.
"Tai?" Sora felt her pains flow away as she looked up at the beautiful face of Tai.
"Are you feeling better now?" Tai had a look of concern on his face and Sora had the urge to hug him.
"I'm feeling much better." Sora didn't know why but a whole lot of stress had lifted off her shoulders. As she looked around, her memory started to flow back to her. Everything that had happened came back to her in full force as Tai helped her walk to the campfire.
Sora sat down and looked around at the familiar faces of her friends. Mimi sat beside her, smiling and holding up a cup of what looked like hot cocoa. Joe sat beside Mimi fussing about not being able to go to work tomorrow. Izzy lay on the ground ticking away at his laptop. Yoli stood over him ordering him to check out certain things on the net. Kari and TK sat together on the opposite side of the fire and they seemed to be deep in conversation. As the bushes beside everyone rustled three new people hopped in and sat down beside TK and Kari.
Davis, Ken and Koji. All of them looking exhausted as they emptied their arms of twigs they had collected for the fire. Davis looked up and saw Sora. "Hey guys Sora's better!"
A lot of faces turned to regard her now and everyone smiled.
"Hey Sora!"
"How you feeling?"
"Need anything?"
"Here have a biscuit."
"Are you cold?"
Sora shook her head as she was offered things and laughed lightly at the jokes Davis cracked only to be stopped by a scowling Yoli.
Sora shivered slightly at the cold that had settled and then she felt a pair of strong arms encircle her in a comforting way. Tai pretended not to look at Sora even though his arms held her to his body protectively. Sora smiled and she leaned her head on his shoulder.
Making up her mind Sora spoke up. "Tai...... I have to tell you something."
"Hmmm?" Tai was staring up at the sky, since it had changed into the colourful vortex that only the digital world held. He finally turned to look down at her.
Sora stared defiantly up at him. "Tai, all the things that are happening ...... are my fault."
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up at Sora, and she turned to face them with the truth about Matt, and everything that had happened since she fell.
They needed to know the truth if they were going to help her set things straight. And so Sora told them about Matt, about herself and about the fate of the world.
