Chapter 1
A Guardian is Born
Seiji : Well this is my first fic so go easy on me.
*IMPORTANT* Firstly you will need to read the first 2 chapters. The characters there play a important role in they story later on, especially in the couples part. The reason why I'm doing 2 chapters on an original character is to build his personality and get you to know him better. Most writers just throw in characters and hope the readers remember them. Well Seiji here as you will see is Kari's cousin. He is very close to her and you will find out more.
Here's the deal. The problem is most readers from what I feel, hit the back button when they see too much on an OC so read, it is important. The Forahask is the enemy race here so just keep that in mind. There will be an adventure later on but I will go according to the timeline.
Disclaimer: I do not own digimon or any of the characters here except a few of them. The ideas too may come from others so don't sue.
Seiji: Now on with the fic.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
*3 years before the summer camp*
In the distance, cries of pain could be heard.
"So you think you can just get us into detention without expecting anything from us?" A large boy in a full white uniform said as he kicked a smaller boy. The boy fell onto his knees, blood dripping on the ground. He had short black hair and black eyes and was smaller than most boys his age.
"You're just a class president, you have no right to tell on us!" He said as he pushed the boy down onto his stomach. "Get him guys!" The whole group of bullies moved in, throwing punches and kicks at the poor boy.
The school bell rang in the distance and the group left.
'Damn it! I only did my job, what they did was wrong. I had all the right to tell the teachers.' The boy thought as he got up. 'Let's see. I got a nose bleed, a black eye, some bruises and cuts. It's not that bad, nothing broken today.'
'Ok now I am late for class, my uniform is in a mess and I'm injured, the teacher is not going to be pleased.' He thought as he limped across the school field in attempt to get back to class as fast as he could.
'Sometimes I wonder why I exist. I think I live only to be tortured, ridiculed, blamed... Well what is it?'
*In another realm at the same time*
"The Forahask are on the move, we need a guardian for this world." A male voice said.
"That is correct, but we need to find one who is pure of heart, who is responsible, one who has the strength and courage to face the onslaught, one who has determination and strong will power so he would continue to fight on against all odds." A female voice replied.
"His heart must be strong, so he will not fall to the darkness. This way he will not be defeated so easily. " A male voice different from the first one stated.
"He must have the power that sleeps within him." The first male voice said. A vision of the earth appears. "Ahh. how about this one"
The vision zooms in onto a boy with black hair and eyes, limping across a field. "This boy possesses the power, his heart is strong and he may be the one that will defeat the invaders." The female voice said.
*Back to the real world*
"What the." the boy looked up and saw clouds forming above him, swirling in a circle. The next thing he knew a bolt of lightning struck him. He cried out in fear but to his surprise he was not in pain. In fact, he felt warm as if it were comforting him.
"Seiji, your world is in danger and you have the power to save it." A voice rang in his head.
"Who are you?" He asked alarmed.
"My name is Remus, I am a watcher. One of many who watch over the worlds and make sure they are safe from harm. Your world is in grave danger. A race from another world, more advanced than yours has depleted their resources, they are conquering other worlds for the resources to ensure their survival. But that is only one of the two reasons they do it. Over time they have developed a lust for blood and would annihilate other races for the fun of it. Many worlds have fallen to them, yours has been targeted. Will you accept the challenge and become a Guardian?" The voice replied.
"You expect me to believe this?" He said.
"Then can you explain the lightning that just hit you?" The voice said flatly.
He sweatdropped. "Uh, Okay I believe you. But I'm only 8, how can I save the world?" Seiji asked slowly taking in what he had just heard.
"The power that sleeps within you will be awakened and you will be granted the power to improve on it. Failing in your mission would only mean death and turning to the dark side would also mean death for you, you are connected to us in some way, once we feel that you have turned to the dark side, we will kill you personally. So do you accept the challenge and responsibility of being the Guardian." The voice said in a serious tone.
"Well, I guess so." Seiji said hesitating. "Wait this is it! This is my destiny, the very reason I exist. If I don't accept then everyone's going to die, so I am willing and I swear that I will lay down my life if I have to' he cried out.
"Very well then. You will have 2 years to train yourself, increase your strength, your power. They will arrive in 2 years, remember this well. You fighting technique is self-acquired, hone your skills and become strong. Your weapon has already been made" The voice said fading.
A white light appeared in front of him and took form. A katana, Seiji reached out and grabbed it, but fell due to its heavy weight. But he felt a power in it, out of curiosity he pulled the sword out of it sheath. It glowed a faint blue then it faded away. The blade was shining silver, he could see his reflection in it. It looked like it was made from a strong material and was very sharp. Then it glowed white again and vanished.
"Your sword is made from a strong material in our realm, it will continue to be strong unless its rightful wielder loses hope. For now I will seal it within you. You will be able to call upon it anytime when the time arrives. You should be able to change your clothes at will to keep your identity. One more thing your watch has been modified, it has many functions, discover it on your own."
Soon the lightning faded away. Seiji looked at his hands confused by what had just taken place. He pinched himself to make sure he was not dreaming. "Owww. fine it was not a dream."
He looked at his watch. It has change a little, a few more buttons and looks a little bigger than it used to be. He felt a power, deep inside him. 'Well I would have to start training soon then.' Somehow he managed to run back to class despite his injuries.
He arrived in class 10 minutes late. His teacher stared at him coldly.
"Well Seiji, you're late by 10 minutes!" She shrieked, stressing on the words late and 10. "As class president, I expect you to set a good example for the rest of your classmates. But from what I have heard and seen, you are obviously not fit for the job." He was devastated, not only has he been beaten up, even his teacher does not believe in him. "You!" She continued pointing at him, "Are a disgrace to the school, you get into fights and not only that, you lie and cheat."
"WHAT!" He shouted, "When did I ever do any of that! If you can find another person in school that looks as roughed up as me, you can't accuse me of starting a fight."
"Talking back to your teacher eh. Well, look at yourself. You're so small, how can you expect to win a fight. Detention for you after school and this is no ordinary detention. You are going to stand in the middle of the field under the sun with bricks tied to your arms and you are to keep your arms up for a few hours." The class broke into applause.
After school Seiji proceeded to find his teacher, she dragged him to the field and tied a brick to each of his arms. 'Might as well start training' he thought as he held out his arms with the extra weight on them. 'I will become stronger.'
*2 years have passed since then*
A boy is seen practicing in a park with some sort of strap-ons strapped to his arms, legs and body. He was obviously shadow-boxing. His eyes and hair were black and sweat trickled down his face.
'It's been 2 years. I have gotten stronger and faster, thanks to these weights in the strap-ons and the meditation has increased my energy. I could feel it coursing through my veins. I can shoot energy now in many different forms, be it rays, beams, concentrated balls or blasts. I have also learned how to concentrate my energy to form magic. Somehow I have managed to keep my secret from everyone else. But I have a feeling that someone will find out soon.'
His watch beeped, he looked at it. 'It's nearly time for dinner, better get going.' Seiji thought as he took off the weights and dumped them into his backpack which already contained some extra weights and started running home with it on his back.
Suddenly a wave of evil energy swept past him, Seiji closed his eyes and his clothes changed. Nobody had noticed it but now he was wearing a white T- shirt, blue jeans, a blue button up shirt that was not buttoned up, black gloves(up to his wrist and exposing his fingers) and a black cap. His sneakers were still the same and his hair had grown a little longer. Only the back had grown the most and it was tied up in a small ponytail, other than that, the rest of it just stuck out from under his cap.
A portal appeared and about 15 figures stepped out of it. Armed with some sort of hi-tech guns they were wearing light armor that consist a chest plate some arm guards and leg guards. Underneath the armor, they wore battle robes. They almost look human except much more masculine and their skin was grey. Their yellow eyes could be seen through their head gear that mainly covered most of their head except part of the back and the eyes.
"ATTACK!" One of them shouted.
People were already fleeing from the area, as their laser beams were fired in all directions. Then they noticed a boy, not moving. Just standing there staring at them. They then concentrated their attacks on him.
"They're here already, oh well here goes." Seiji muttered under his breath. In a flash, he was gone. The beams missed their target and the Forahask stopped. In a second, he was a few meters to the left from his original location, he was closer to them too.
"What! It can't be.. A guardian?" They fired rapidly at him missing every round, as he disappeared and reappeared again and again each time closer to them.
The next thing they knew he was right in front of their leader.
"What? Can't handle my speed?" He taunted as he punched the leader right in the stomach with his left fist. In a second, he delivered a roundhouse to his head with his right leg. Then he grabbed the guy's face with his left palm. "See ya." He said sarcastically as he blasted the head with some energy. His body burst into dust a moment later.
He moved towards the others but not as fast as the last time. He looked as if he was going to crash into them but at the last moment he dodged and spun past them only after he delivered a few blows to each of them.
The invaders were all frozen on the spot for a moment before collapsing onto the ground. Seiji clenched his right fist and just cried, "BURN!" His right hand burst into flames but it died down immediately and the Forahask were engulfed in flames for a short period before exploding into clouds of particles.
Another portal appeared nearby and more Forahask appeared out of it. "Our report shows that our forces here were destroyed almost instantly, so we came here from neighboring areas to find out the reason." One of them reporting to their leader, "We are having an easier time elsewhere."
A blue blast of energy swept over them and all they could feel was excruciating pain and extreme heat before bursting into dust. Several meters behind them stood Seiji with his right arm outstretched and left arm supporting it. "That was easy, one blast and they're dead. I'm hungry." He said before changing his clothes back and scooting off home.
'It's amazing what a bit of magic can do to my speed, although I'm sure in the future I can move faster than that without using magic.' Seiji thought recounting the battle he just had.
Upon entering the house he noticed the TV on, his family was watching the news. "It seems we are being invaded by a force from another world, these mysterious beings appear out of what appears to be some sort of portal. They are highly dangerous and have appeared in almost every town all over the world. So far the armies have been able to hold them off, no deaths have been reported yet but there are casualties. However here in Tokyo, they have appeared and concentrated in an area but they mysteriously vanished, according to witnesses, a boy was seen holding them off. We will get back to you with more updates" The reporter said.
'This is far worse than I expected it to be.' Seiji thought as he headed to his room to drop off his stuff.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Seiji: Well what do you think? Well, I'll post a few chapters in 1 shot so I can get to the digidestineds soon. More about Seiji will be told to you in the next chapter. Please review, I would like to know if anyone is reading this. Don't flame.
