Ahhh... I can't believe how late last chapter came out. But it did come out;
hopefully you aren't really mad at me. Anyway, I hope you noticed that I put
in a bit of Digimon 03 last chapter, I had to have a bit of humor in it. Also
I put a song in this chapter, it's 'Everything Changes' from the pokemon CD
'2.B.A. Master'.

Seeking the light

Chapter Twenty- on wings of angels
Now only one group of fighters stood ready for battle, for some reason
they had not fought while the others fought. Now they stood across from each
other, an invisible line between them.
It was time for the final battle to begin, the battle that would decide
the fate of TK's soul.
~
TK stared with his sapphire eyes at his opponent; he was facing someone
he had hoped to never have to. He felt as if part of him was breaking, the
part of him that remembered he was Hikari seemed to be crying.
Your heart's beating around the clock
Time's tickin' away it doesn't stop
Evolution is taking place
The world is spinnin' and changin' everyday
Anything you think of with a name
There isn't anything in life, that ever stays the same
But everything had changed, he was no longer the person Kage loved... he
was TK now. He had evolved in a way; he had grown... grown past being Hikari... a
new destiny.
It was a cruel thing he knew to say, but it was true. Part of him still
loved the pale haired tomb raider, but... he gazed at the unconscious form of
Davis.
'I'm sorry Kage, but you have to move on... I can't be Hikari anymore' he
thought sadly, and... he wanted to be TK.
"You shouldn't of come," TK said quietly, he knew this so why couldn't
Kage understand this. But he knew why, Kage loved Hikari, and to bring Hikari
back he needed Hikari's soul.
'My soul. If my soul is taken back to that body I will still be TK not
Hikari. Hikari did die that day only the body remains, I don't want to be put
into that body. I am TK, and no matter what Kage and the others do I will
still be TK' he thought, he only wished they would see the truth.
"I know, but I can't let go... I love him too much," Kage said, he looked
up his dark eyes filled with determination.
A gentle breeze went by them, golden blond hair and spiky white hair
swayed in its breeze.
"But in the end you will, for it is destiny," TK whispered with a sigh,
he hated to do this... but he must. He gathered his powers and concentrated,
suddenly a huge globe of light surrounded Kage, Bakura, his partners and
himself... cutting them off from everything else and quite a large space.
***
Kage's eyes widened as TK's eyes suddenly glowed, less then a
millisecond later a huge orb of light surrounded the five of them. He realized
right away there was no way out, he couldn't see out and he had a feeling that
no one could see in.
One of the Angel like creatures with the blond boy looked startled, but
he quickly recovered... but he was looking at TK with a strange look on his
face.
"I was Hikari in one life but in this one I am TK, child of hope for the
digidestined. In my last life I had a large destiny, I still have a destiny in
this one but one that is smaller," TK suddenly said and Kage gasped his eyes
wide, that wasn't TK speaking... it was Hikari.
It was still TK's voice, but it held the knowledge of something so much
more... and the boy's eyes seemed to hold eternity and more.
"Hikari," he whispered, TK shook his head no.
"I am TK now Kage, I will not be able to return your love in this
lifetime no matter what your other half or yourself do. I am happy in the life
I have now, but... if you try to take this life from me," TK whispered, he then
turned angry eyes to the white haired Egyptian... something Hikari had never
given Kage.

"I will stop you, and I will use all that I have at my disposal," TK
said in a whisper. It was so low he almost didn't hear it, but something in
them made him feel a chill.
"No... I will have Hikari back, and even if I have to kill you to do it I
will," Kage cried tears flowing down his face, he whipped out his cards and
summoned the first card that came to his hand.
***
Angemon had finally realized something; TK was more then human. It was
more then the fact his eyes had just glowed and they had been enveloped a
glowing orb of light... TK's entire aura was glowing with more energy then
Angemon had ever seen.
The things his partner had just said explained many things; Kage was
connected with who TK was in his last life. A last life he was clearly not
human, and somehow... it had carried over to this life. It had amazed him when
TK had spoken, in it he had felt something ancient... he had felt as if he
should be bowing to TK.
If he did that he would have to do it later, at the moment he was being
attacked by a monster... that had come out of a card of all things. Daeangemon
was also fighting off a card creature; he had one thing to say... his darker
counterpart was a good fighter.
For, a dark digimon that is.
Then he realized that no one was near enough by TK to guard him, he
quickly flew towards the blond.
'Great, and that Kage human is heading towards TK' Angemon thought, at
the moment Kage was walking towards TK a third card in hand.
"TK!" he cried in a panic, then TK did something that surprised him... he
smiled.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of him," TK said in an almost deadly calm
voice, he then held up one of his hands... and light began to form there.
***
Like DM and Daemon had taught him TK concentrated, he concentrated his
power and even his soul... it began to appear as a light in his right hand. Then
suddenly the light flared, and once again he held his soul sword.
The sword was made out of pure light, light so pure it could be used as
a weapon against anything... even an kami if he wished. But now that he
remembered things from his time as Hikari he knew what the symbols on the hilt
meant, they meant balance... and in a way he was a creature of balance.
He could feel the others stunned emotions at his display of calling up
the soul sword, the only one not stunned was Daeangemon... who in truth was
Daemon.
Everything has gotta' change
You take a chance, you throw the dice
You risk it all, it's just a part of life
You hold it tight, to what you know
You can't hold back, you gotta' let it go
Every little step that you embrace
One road ends, another begins and
Takes you to a better place
"I am of the light and of the darkness, I cannot be contained or
controlled by others. I bring balance to the unbalanced. There is no place
just chaos or order exists, and you have decided to interfere with me," TK
whispered, he held his sword in an attack position.
His eyes glowed briefly with his power; he had a feeling this battle
would be different then others... much different.
***
Kage quickly had to change tactics when TK came after him with a sword,
grabbing a magic card with a sword he used it to call up the sword. It looked
like a normal enough sword with a ruby in the hilt, but it gave off a dark
aura [not a real magic card].
He winced as TK's sword hit his own, it was so strong sparks flew into
the air. It was so hard his wrist hurt, he hadn't known TK knew how to use the
sword.
"I won't loose, I will have TK back," he growled to the younger boy, TK
looked at him with those all so familiar eyes and sighed sadly.
"And I cannot let that happen Kage," he answered in a tight voice, both
then used the force from the swords connecting to part.
The swords met in a parry of blows, he winced as one well aimed strike
scratched his left cheek deep enough to draw blood. Already his clothing were
ripped from TK's sword, thankfully he was good enough with the sword to rip
TK's clothing... but sooner or later he himself would draw blood.
Suddenly Kage realized that the two Angel like creatures had destroyed
his monsters, looked like he would have to use a much more powerful monster to
win this fight... and definitely before TK used his sword to gut him.

"Well, looks like things just got interesting," Kage said, then a smirk
he summoned his next monster.
(Kage what are you doing, I used most of my energy to support the other
two monsters... I don't have enough left for you to control it) Bakura suddenly
shouted in his mind, it was at that moment Kage felt his other pass out from
the overuse of energy.
Kage wanted to swear, he didn't have enough energy to control this
monster without his other half's energy, but it was too late to stop the
monster from coming.
Unknown to many, like the three god cards there were three Demon cards...
one that he had just used. A huge beast appeared, looking like a very demonic
minotaur from legend but one that looked even scarier, one that he couldn't
control at the moment. [Not a real card; made it up].
It turned demonic eyes at its summoner, Kage felt fear go through him.
"Shit," was the last thing he said, then the monster sent him into the
land of unconsciousness... joining the light side of his soul there.
***
The next thing the three of the digimon dimension knew they were slammed
against a wall of the light orb, with a groan TK, angemon and daeangemon fell
to the ground.
"What the hell is that thing?" the dark angel growled, TK could only
gasp... he had heard of this creature. He had hoped he would never meet it, from
what he remembered the three demon shadow monsters... the counterparts of the
god cards could give him the run for his money.
"Hutaour the demon Shadow monster," TK whispered in awe and fear, from
what he could tell... this monster was more powerful then him... especially since
TK didn't have access to all his power.
The three of them were once again slammed backwards by the demonic
creature, TK could only scream as one of his ribs were broken and his two
partners data became unstable.
"TK," both angels whispered, TK felt tears fall down his face... then it
came to him of what he had to do.
"Angemon, Daeangemon... by now you both know I'm not truly human. What I'm
about to do will startle you, I'm going to change to my true form," he
whispered, this way he would have all his powers and abilities.
"Do it," angemon said, Daeangemon nodded... they trusted him... and TK's
form was blasted with light and within TK changed.
Because his human form was Young TK's true for was also younger and
stood the same height, his skin was now a golden color that gave him a very
exotic look. He still looked very human in the end, that is if you didn't see
the rest of him.
Huge white angel like wings came from his back, his face was also now
Slightly more mature but still childlike with slim long pointed ears. His eyes
were now slanted, while they were still blue his shadow heritage showed in the
slit pupils. His hair was now pure white and fell to his knees in a loose
ponytail, his body still had that unfinished look all children had and his
human form had.
His clothing changed also but not to his old outfit he had worn in this
form, he wore new modern clothing. He wore a white silk shirt with gold trim
and this time it had the symbol of hope on the middle of his chest, form
fitting white jeans covered his slim legs and slim white leather boots covered
his feet. All along his clothing were strange symbols with meaning only those
of the light realm knew... they told many important things to the creatures
there.
Once the light faded TK stood there in all his glory, he could feel the
awe coming off his partners... even Daeangemon who had seen this form before...
even though it had been a very long time ago.
"TK," Angemon said in awe, apparently he hadn't expected TK's true form
to look like an angel. His transformation had also blinded the demon shadow
monster; it would be at least a minute before he could see again.
"Yeah it's me, don't worry... I'll always need you," he said truthfully,
he felt his partners relief... they had evidentially feared that he wouldn't
need them any more.
But he did need them; his powers weren't returning fast enough... and if
he didn't hurry the two-angel digimon would be deleted. Also they were his
best friends, he couldn't stand the thought of them not in his life.
"TK, let us merge with you... that way we can all defeat him," Daeangemon
suddenly shouted, TK and angemon looked at Daeangemon with interest.
"Is that even possible, I'm not a digimon?" TK asked frowning, unlike
his true form when it was older his true form when he was younger sounded
exactly the same.
"It's possible, but we will only be able to hold the merged form for
five minutes," Daeangemon answered, TK looked at angemon who nodded. This
would work, and it would be an interesting thing to experience.
"Let's do it," TK said all serious, and they had to hurry for the shadow
creature was starting to be able to see again.
Suddenly the two angel digimon bodies erupted into data, at first he
felt panic but it soon subsided when he felt it surrounded him and began to
enter him.
Like his transformation to his true form, TK's body once again erupted
into light... but since the shadow creature was already blinded it didn't affect
him.
Once the light faded, the merged form of the three angelic creatures
stood there. He looked much the same as before, but now he had two more sets
of wings, one was exactly like Daeangemons wings, the other looked like
Angemons. He now wore black leather boots and two black belts around his
waist, around his eyes there was a metal visor that he could see through. Each
of these things were something from the two digimon, different from what they
had worn... but there's all the same.
In his hands was a crystal staff, he was an angel of all realms.
"Time to face your end, it's time for you to return to the shadows," the
angel said in TK's voice, but there seemed to be a bit of an echo to it.
***
Matt and the others had finally arrived at the fight, they quickly
gathered around the light barrier that hid TK from view.
They quickly realized they couldn't touch it or get through it, every
time they came in contact with it they were rebounded back roughly.
"TK," Matt whispered tears in his eyes, his hand reached out and touched
the surface as best as he could... his brother he knew was somewhere inside this
thing fighting for his life.
'Be careful TK, I'm counting for you to come out safe and sound... I don't
know what I'd do without you' Matt thought, but at the moment he could only
wait.
***
Blue eyes opened behind a metal visor, slim hands gripped a powerful
crystal staff.
'I can hear you brother, don't worry for I will win' the merged being
that was TK thought, how he knew what Matt was thinking he didn't know. But at
the moment he didn't care, he had a battle to win.
[Insert battle music, at the moment I'm listening to the battle song
that was in the episode of Sailormoon VS Wiseman]
"Hutaour your time is at its end, it is time for you to return to the
shadow realm for eternity," TK sad in a calm voice, then the two creatures
leapt towards each other [by then Hutaour was able to see again].
TK quickly lunged forward with his staff; he frowned as the beast was
able to knock it back with a large clawed hand.
"I will winnnnnn!" Hutaour actually said in a terrifying voice,
thankfully this didn't startle TK... after all he already knew shadow realm
creatures could speak.
"You will not, I will not allow it," TK said, at that moment both
gathered their powers and sent it towards the other in hope of their
destruction.
TK sweated as he continued to blast his power towards Hutaour, he had
never expected Hutaour to be so strong... even while he didn't have all his
powers at the moment he was still very powerful.
'I can't loose, if I do this monster will escape by light orb and attack
this dimension' TK thought, he closed his eyes as images came to him.
Matt reading to him as a child, the time they spent together in the
digital world.
Tai doing something stupid, but always a good friend and role model.
Sora smiling, and acting like a big sister.
Joe cleaning a cut and patiently watching over him.
Izzy helping him with homework, making everyone confused with computer
talk.
Mimi giving fashion advice, always giving her best for everything.
Kari, a friend always and in love with him... but always his friend.
Cody, intelligent and ready to give you a shoulder to lean on.
Yolei, excitable and friendly... always ready to pitch in to help.
Ken; a genius always and always happy to make new friends.
Davis, a gogglehead like Tai but different... the person he had fallen n
love with.
There digimon, best friends and family... something everyone should have.
Family...
'Please everyone, give me strength' he thought tears falling down his
face, it was at this moment that he needed them the most. He was powerful but
not at full power, at the moment he needed the ones he considered family.
***
Outside and even far away those mentioned gasped, it felt as if someone
needed them... and somehow they granted that person all there strength.
***
"Thank you," TK whispered, at that moment his body was enveloped by
light... and guided by his friends hearts changed once again.
Standing there now was a new angel with one set of pure white wings, he
wore white robes with all the destined symbols and symbols of the light realm.
His hair hung loose to his ankles and was now a silvery blue in color; his
ears were round now also. His skin was now only slightly golden in color, his
eyes were still slanted and the same as his true form. He wore fingerless
silver gloves that went to his elbows, on his feet he wore simple white
slipper-shoes that had the symbol of the light realm on them. He also looked a
bit older, more around his brother's age.
"Thank you everyone, I will use your strength wisely," TK said, his
voice now sounded like an older version of TK's human voice.
Suddenly his power he was sending to Hutaour blasted with light and
energy, he kept on blasting away his power increasing with every passing
second.
"Goodbye Hutaour," TK yelled, at that moment the world erupted into
white light.
[End battle music}
~
"You did it," a voice said, with a gasp TK turned to face himself... or
more acurtly the part of him that was Hikari.
"I won," he said happily.
"Yes, but now it's time to return to real time... and don't worry...
everything will turn out all right for us," Hikari whispered to TK, TK smiled.
"You know, I still think it's weird to talk to an image in my mind," he
said, Hikari grinned.
"It's better then nothing," the memory if Hikari pointed out.
~
In the light orb two light orbs left TK and formed into the unconscious
forms of Patamon and Dark patamon, now only TK stood there in his true form.
"We won," he whispered, then exhausted he fell forward his body changing
back to his human one as he did so.
His power exhausted the light orb around then faded away, what everyone
saw was the unconscious forms of everyone and no idea of who had won... but a
feeling inside them said that TK had.

FH= wow, I can't believe I made this chapter so long. It would have been
longer, but I talked myself out of doing certain things... that would of lead to
another sequel and I don't want another one.
R.Calumon= We hoped you liked the chapter, now we plan to fall asleep on the
couch exhausted. We finished this real late at night.
FH= No hints of what happens next time, as it is I have no clear idea myself
so suggestions welcome... up to a point that is.
Ja ne
