Disclaimer: I don't own anything except my computer, my story, the clothes on my back, etc..

Thanks for everyone that reviewed! (which wasn't that many but still...)

All you need is Love

"Garudramon!" Sora yelled. She fell to her knees and watched as the digimon transformed back into Yokomon. Tai ran to catch Yokomon.

"Thanks Ryuu." The digimon murmured weakly. Tai walked over to Sora and handed Yokomon to her. Sora stood up and gave him a small smile of thanks. Yamato watched the exchange.

"I know you love her." Violet said.

Yamato looked at the violet eyed girl. 'How...' Violet smiled and patted him on the arm.

"Listen, what ever is going on between you two, don't hurt Chihiro. You need to tell her your true feelings. Sora loves you too. If you don't watch out, you might loose her."

Suddenly they felt the earth shaking. 'Earthquake? In the Spirit realm?' Yamato thought.

Haku groaned and sat up. Looking around, all he could see was a bleak, vast land before him.

"About time you woke up." Said a woman's voice.

Stiffening, Haku looked around before he saw a woman with long red hair and ruby eyes. 'She looks like Sora.' He thought.

"Is this the Spirit Realm? Where's Sora? Who are you?" He asked.

'Very inquisitive.' Phoenix thought.

"No, this isn't the Spirit Realm. I'm afraid that you've been capture by Akio. This is the Shadow Realm. But we do need to help Sora. I will not let that monster touch my daughter!" Her ruby eyes flashed angrily. 'And I hope he heard that.'

"Daughter?" Haku blinked. This woman was Sora's true mother? But she was dead. 'I'm talking with Sora's dead mother? Gods, will this insanity never end.'

"Yes. Unfortunately, I cannot do anything physically to help her, but you can."

"If I'm stuck in the Shadow Realm, how am I to help her?"

"You..." She put her hands around her throat and glared past him. Haku turned his head to see a man.

"Damn, woman, do you ever shut your trap? Do you ever learn? I hope your daughter doesn't make the same mistakes as you." He walked briskly over.

"And where is Izzy? I thought I left him to watch you." Phoenix smiled.

"You bitch! How did you? You don't have that kind of power!" Akio tried to slap her but his hand went right through her. "Shit."

Phoenix pointed to her throat. Sighing, Akio murmured something under his breath.

"Thank you." She said.

"No matter. It's already to late to help your daughter and her friends. Soon. Very soon." Akio laughed.

Haku stared at the man. 'This bastard is meaning to hurt my sister!' Akio slowly turned to look at him.

"Well, since you're awake, it's time for you to become more useful."

Haku bent over in pain. Phoenix cried out but could only watch.

A horde of Mammothmon stampeded through the trees. Crash after crash. Yamato looked at Metalgarurumon.

"Ready?"

"Ready, Wolf." The digimon replied with a growl. Yamato looked over at Tai and Wargreymon. They were ready as well with Tai standing firmly. Looking up to the sky, he watched as a swarm of Flymon headed their way.

"This isn't good." Violet said. She looked at Floramon.

"No kidding." Yamato replied.

"Hey, do you think you guys can handle this?" Sora asked T.K and Kari. The two teens looked at each other and then at Angemon and Angewomon.

"Yup." They replied. Sora looked down at Yokomon.

"Oh, Yokomon, what are we going to do? I can't digivolve you again. I'm too exhausted." Yokomon looked sadly up at her partner. The small digimon felt a tear fall on her head. Kaonashi was no where to be seen and Kamajii had gone back to Rin's Gate. 'Poor Sora.'

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Taomon looked at Chihiro's body. 'I should be helping them fight. Not sitting here watching Chihiro!' The digimon shifted to a more comfortable standing position. 'By the Gods, when I find Akio...What?!'

Chihiro moaned. Slowly she brought a hand to her forehead.

"Chihiro?" Taomon asked. The woman's eyes opened. Very slowly, she stood up. As if she hadn't seen or heard a thing, Chihiro walked past Taomon and out of the cave.

"Wait! Where are you going? It's dangerous out there! Chihiro!" Taomon ran.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Mimi and Joe winced as Wargreymon flew right through them and into several trees.

"Joe, they need us." The girl cried. Joe shook his head.

"We can't do anything. The only thing is that we have faith in their ability."

"But, Joe, they could all die. And only love can save them from destruction. And only hope and light can combine with the elements to destroy the enemy once and for all."

Sora put Yokomon on the ground.

"Find cover."

"Ok, just be careful."

"Don't I always."

Yokomon watched as Sora entered the battlefield.

"Sora what are you doing?" Tai yelled.

"What we all should be doing. We need to fight. Not just the digimon. Don't forget, we have powers of our own."

Violet grinned. 'it's about time.' She walked over to Sora. Tai and Yamato locked eyes, the same thought going through their heads. 'Why didn't I think of this earlier.' Tai looked towards the remaining digimon, fire in his eyes.

"I have a bad feeling about this." Weregarurumon said. Yokomon and Floramon looked at him.

"So do we." They replied.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Taomon grabbed a hold of Chihiro and turned her around. Her eyes looked straight into his. 'What? Why is her eyes that way?'

"Chihiro, are you listening to me?" She didn't reply. Pulling away from Taomon's loose grip, she turned and walked away. Taomon stared after her. 'What the hell is going on? There was so much power in her eyes.' The digimon decided it was best to follow her at a distance.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Sora looked around at the others. They were exhausted but everyone was okay.

"Hey, Sora, your plan worked!" Violet cried, hugging the red head. Sora smiled and hugged back. Tai and Yamato walked over with their digimon, now back in rookie form.

"Violet, stop being overly dramatic. No need to get excited because we're not out of the woods yet." Tai said. Violet glared at her twin and hit him on the head. Tai held his head in pain. Everyone laughed.

"Tai has a good point though. We still need to face Akio." Yamato said. Sora suddenly found her shirt to be very interesting. 'Once we destroy Akio, he'll have Chihiro back and leave me behind...again.' Violet looked back and forth between the two. She grabbed Tai by the ear and looked pointedly at the digimon. They all gulped.

"Hey, I think Tai and I should put up some parameters and we should settle for the night here." She said. Sora and Yamato nodded, watching as Violet dragged Tai away. The digimon followed.

"Um, we should check up on Rin and Kamajii. See if anything else has happened." Mimi said, smiling. Joe looked confused.

"We should?" He asked but received a glare from Mimi. "Yes, we NEED to." Joe finally got the hint and both vanished into thin air.

Matt turned his gaze upon Sora. She blushed.

"So, after we defeat Akio, you'll have your Chihiro back. I mean, that's what you want, right? After all, she is your fiancé." Sora said, nervously.

Matt stared at her.

"Um, are you going to stare at me all night or are you going to reply back?"

She fidgeted. Matt took the few steps that were between them, closing the gap. Sora looked down. 'He's so close. Why is he acting so strange. Shouldn't he be happy that he'll get her back?' Matt gently lifted her chin until she was looking into his eyes. 'What is he doing? He's only making things worse. Oh, Yama.'

"Sora, the only thing I want is you."

Her eyes widened. 'Did he just say what I think he said?!' Matt closed his eyes and closed the gap, kissing her. Sora kissed back, feeling happiness and love. Matt pulled her closer and deepened the kiss. 'His kissing me! And he said he wants me!' Sora felt as if she could fly. Slowly, the broke apart.

"What about Chihiro?"

Matt, not letting her go, replied, "We still have to save her but Violet made me realize that if I don't follow my heart, I might loose you."

Sora felt tears running down her face. Matt kissed them away.

"Yama, you should know. You'll always have me."

"And you'll always have us too!" Tai yelled. Violet hit him on the back of the head.

"Tai! They were having a moment!" She growled. He winced. Everyone laughed at the two. Still, Sora couldn't help but feel as if something was amiss. 'Something's wrong. Akio has my brother. Why does he want Haku? He's up to something big, I know it.'

"You okay?" Matt asked.

"Yeah, I'm just thinking."

Matt held her tighter. 'Sora, I don't want to loose you. I'll do everything in my power to help you. I promise.'

Sorry there wasn't much action. I decided to skip around a lot. What's up with Chihiro? And what does Akio have planned for Haku? Will Sora's and Matt's love be able to stand against Akio? Will hope and light reveal themselves (although, you probably know who hope and light are. lol.) ? Will Tai ever learn?

Rin: "Will you ever shut up?!"

Kamajii: "Yeah, you're giving me a headache."

Me: "Well, sorry." Murmurs something under her breath.

Rin: "What was that?"

Me: "Nothing."

Kamajii: "I can't believe you just said that! Rin, shall we?"

Rin: "Yes."

Me: "Um, come on you guys. I was just joking!" *runs*

Rin and Kamajii: "Get back here!"

Violet: "Er, hope you liked the chapter. Until next time..."
