Perfect World
DISCLAIMER- I OWN NOTHING BUT THIS STORY LINE AND ALL MY OTHER STORY LINES!!! DIGIMON DOES NOT BELONG TO ME!!! pouts I wish it did, though . . . XD
KirbsterMK: Hey, everyone, it's me, KirbsterMK. I planned earlier to post up a shounen-ai story, but I guess this will be my first one. Yes, this is Takouji. I've grown rather fond of the couple. I don't know much about Digimon Frontiers, and I've only seen a few episodes, so, if I get something wrong, I apologize ahead of time. There is shounen-ai, bad language, and mild violence, including blood, in the fanfic, so if you don't like any of these, please turn back now. Thank you!
Also, I have no idea where this fic will fit in with the 50-episode series . . . so you can find a place to put it. This is a one-shot.
NOTE: I wrote this July 4th. Yes, last night. It took a few hours, and then I began re-editing it today. And now I'm done. I know, the title sucks. And I know this story isn't the best, and I know that two days from now I'm gonna say this story sucks ass, so I'm just going to post it up before I can change my mind. XD Flames will be poked at, pointed at, and laughed at, because those who have time to read the story and then review it with a pointless flame must not have very much of a life.
Summary- [Digimon Frontiers] The group has gone against a Digimon who's out to kill them all, and with most of them unconscious, and all but one D-Tector smashed to bits, Takuya is the only one that is able to save them. But will an injured Kouji allow him to sacrifice himself?
Perfect World
Takuya-
"KOUJI!!!" I yelled, as KendoGarurumon de-digivolved to the skinny, pale, and dark blue-haired human I knew as Kouji. He fell to his side, grasping his right leg in pain.
I turned and growled at the strange new Digimon that had encountered us. He was wolf-like, muscular in his legs, but his stomach and chest were extremely skinny. His ears were long and floppy, his snout slim, and his eyes were a deep brown. His tail was long without much muscle on it, about twice as long as his body, and was forked at the end. The wings sprouting from his shoulder blades were dragon-like, and rather large.
We didn't even know his name. All he said was that 'In order for my plan to succeed, you all need to be dead.' Yes, he stressed the word dead, which didn't exactly make Tomoki happy. But most everyone could guess his plan; to take over the Digital World. 'How original is that?' I thought sarcastically.
Speaking of Tomoki, I stole a glance at him. Still unconscious. As well as the others, except for Kouji, of course.
I rushed head-first at the wolf-digimon, shouting "WILDFIRE TSUNAMI!!!" as my fire attack hit home. But my enemy barely flinched.
He chuckled, "My, my, BurningGreymon. You've become quite weak, haven't you? Not used to fighting alone, are we? Too dependant on others, perhaps?"
I rolled my eyes, "Cut the bullshit, you bastard, and leave the others alone! You're fight's with me, and me only!" I didn't know when I decided that, but I had to protect my friends. Nothing was more important than keeping them safe right now.
He lunged at me, knocking me to the ground and biting my shoulder, clinging on as tight as he could as I stood up. Even though he could still touch the ground with me standing at my full height, he decided to hang off of me as though he were nothing but dead weight.
I swung my shoulder back in a pathetic attempt to get him off, but to no avail. Soon, blood trickled down my arm from the wolf-digimon's fangs, and he bit down harder. I winced and let out a small sound in pain from the wound. He pushed me away with his back legs, still biting my shoulder, and as we were forced away from each other, he took a great deal of my flesh with him as he jumped back.
"Shit . . ." I muttered under my breath, watching as the blood oozed from the wound. I soon found myself at his mercy as he unleashed a rain of blows on me, blood flying, cries of pain filling the air, and suddenly he kicked out with his back legs, sending me flying . . .
I flew through the air backwards, and landed on my back, right next to Kouji. I groaned in pain, sitting up ready to get back up and fight, feeling my blood run down both my arms, my chest, and my legs, only to find out that I had de-digivolved back to a human.
Kouji slowly crawled over to me, "Takuya, are you okay?" He had a slight limp as he crawled. Worry and concern were etched on his face, as I watched him from the corner of my eye crawl behind me.
I nodded my head. He carefully examined my wounds. None of them seemed to hurt me too bad . . . except for the one on my left shoulder where the wolf-digimon had bitten me. Kouji gently touched the wound, and I hissed in pain.
I looked over to see if the wolf-digimon was planning on ending it all now, or drawing it out . . . He actually looked interested at the fact that Kouji was helping me, and cocked his head to the side . . .
Either way, I had to go back and fight . . . I had to protect Kouji and the others.
I moved to stand up, but I was pushed back down. "Don't move." Kouji said sternly. "You're losing too much blood. If you get up too fast, you'll get a head rush, and if you don't take care of yourself, you could faint, and maybe di-die . . ." I heard Kouji's voice break for a split second at the last word, as his hands stopped examining my wounds. He . . . truly was worried for me, wasn't he?
"Kouji, I have to go back and fight! I'm the only one who's conscious and can still walk!"
He ignored me. "Will you ever stop being so reckless??" He asked, then brought his hands back down to my shoulder.
But it wasn't his hands that touched the painful spot, it was a soft cloth. I looked down to see Kouji wrapping his bandana tightly around my shoulder, the blue-and-brown fabric quickly changing to a deep crimson.
"Kouji . . . I need to go! Unless you're going to try and . . ." I didn't even finish my sentence. I didn't want to give the younger twin any ideas. Instead, I stood up, but just as Kouji has predicted, a head rush came to welcome me, blocking out my vision with purple and pink and blue sparkles . . .
While I battled to gain my vision back, Kouji pulled my legs out from under me, and flipped me over on my back, pinning me to the ground before I could even think about what was happening. "No. You're not going. Takuya, you can't get yourself killed. I won't let you. Not while I'm alive. I don't want you to die." His voice was surprisingly strong and clear, but I could see the tears running down his cheeks. "P-please, Takuya-chan . . ." Wh-what'd he call me?! "I love you."
I laid there on the ground, and blinked a few times before the three new words from Kouji's mouth sunk in . . . He . . . loved me? Well, that was a change . . . Wait . . . Was he just trying to get me to back out and run??
"Kouji, I'm going. You're not going to stop me by saying that. I'm going to fight this bastard and win, whether I live or die. And if I die, I'll die protecting my friends."
I got up, and turned back towards the wolf-digimon, who still looked on in interest, a gleam of amusement in his eyes.
"Would I lie to you?" That made me stop. Kouji had practically sobbed out the question, which threw me totally off guard. The wall around his emotions had suddenly come crashing down, at the most unexpected time, and I don't think I was ready for it.
I turned back to him, his eyes holding emotions of hurt and defeat. "Would I—lie—to you . . .?" He repeated his question, this time stronger, but in a quiet voice.
I didn't answer. I just stood there, bleeding, like a stupid little kid while one of my best friends cried, trying to convince me to back out of the fight, telling me that he loved me. Suddenly he stood up, and almost instantly went down again when his right leg gave out. Luckily he was close enough for me to quickly lurch forward and catch before he hit the ground.
His hair had come out of his ponytail, and was now swaying in the gentle breeze as he looked hopefully, yet hurtfully at me, as I wiped away his tears. He wrapped his arms around my neck, and squeezed tightly, whispering in my ear, "I do love you Takuya . . . I always have . . . But I never knew how much until now . . . Please don't do this . . ." I hugged him back gently, then pulled him away, looking into his navy blue eyes, and finding sincerity in all his spoken words.
Without thinking, I leaned down and kissed him lightly on the lips. Before I could even think of what to do next, Kouji had come back, this time, with a deeper kiss, pressing against me. And I returned it whole-heartedly.
I broke the kiss before either of us had had even close to enough of it, and looked at him fully. "I have to do this, Kouji . . ."
I didn't give him time to react as I got up, facing the wolf-digimon who was almost long-forgotten. He had stood there the whole time, probably thinking of ways to could kill us, no less. I walked, rather, limped and swayed, toward him until we were only a few feet away from each other.
"Hmm . . ." He said, almost to himself, in an amused way. "Maybe I should kill the one of Light, first . . ."
My eyes narrowed, "I dare you to even touch him, you jackass . . ." I said through clenched teeth. 'This fight's for you Kouji . . . If I don't make it . . . Please don't blame yourself . . .'
The wolf-digimon sneered, knowingly. He had heard the whole conversation, hadn't he?? "Just a thought . . ." He said.
"I already told you, your fight is with me, and no one else. So just leave Kouji out of this."
"Until you're dead, that is . . ."
I suddenly began feeling dizzy and nauseous. "Takuya?!" I couldn't see or think straight . . . "Takuya!" I tried to focus on the wolf-digimon, but there were suddenly two of him . . . now one, now two, one, two . . . It was all so confusing . . . Maybe if I just sat a while . . .
A war cry came from no where, and a blinding flash of light entered my vision as I fell to the ground. "TAKUYA, NO!" My blood was still coming from my wounds . . . I could feel it . . . It was beginning a small pool around me . . .
Several explosions were heard, and the cries of the wolf-digimon could be picked out of all the noise easily. I heard running footsteps, and then the sound of someone falling to the ground, "Shhhhhhit . . ." It was Kouji. He somehow found his way to me, and I felt him take hold of my hand as he entered my line of sight.
"Takuya, are you all right?"
My vision was beginning to go again, and my eyes felt like closing and never again opening. "Kouji . . . I love you . . . too . . ." I grinned faintly, and everything went black . . .
"Takuya?! Takuya, no, wake up! Don't leave me, please, wake up! Wake up! Wake up . . .!"
.......................................
"Takuya . . . Wake up! Come on, wake up!!" A pause, then . . . "WAKE UP, TAKU-CHAN!!!"
I woke with a start at the yelling of the nickname Kouji had given me long ago. I blinked, then stared into his navy blue eyes for what seemed like an eternity, then looked at the clock, and groaned.
"Kouji . . ." I whined, "It's only five o'clock . . . And it's Sunday . . . Don't you have anything better to do, like make breakfast, or something??" I rolled onto my stomach, hiding my head under my pillow.
"Nope, it's your turn to make breakfast today. Besides, your parents and brother went to go get a few things from the store, so they won't be back for about half an hour . . ."
I raised my pillow above my head and gave him a skeptical look. "My family . . . out to a store . . . at five in the morning?? Seriously now, Kouji . . ."
"I'm serious!!"
I gave him a stern look, "You didn't have anything to do with this, did you?"
"N . . . Ye . . . No. Except drink all the milk, kept the eggs out of the fridge all night so they would go bad, and . . . hmm . . ." He thought for a moment, "Oh, and dumped the orange juice down the drain." He grinned wildly.
"You devilish little bastard!" The same grin on my face.
He bowed his head, "Thank you for your kind comment. Besides, how else are we supposed to get some alone time??"
I jumped up and tackled him, knocking him on his back as I kissed him full on the lips. He returned the kiss passionately, somehow rolling over so that he was on top of me and I was the one pinned to the bed. I never figured out how he did that so quickly without me noticing.
In the middle of our kiss, I heard the doorknob to the bedroom turning, and without a second thought, I shoved Kouji off of me and onto the ground.
"Hey, Takuya, Kouji . . ."
"AAIEEE!"
"YES! I WON!" I shouted, just as my younger brother walked into the room.
" . . . Store doesn't open until six . . ."
He raised his eyebrow at Kouji as he sat there, pouting at me on the floor. I couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm not going to ask . . ." My brother walked out of the room.
I wasn't sure if he knew about Kouji and I yet, but I'm pretty sure he had a few suspicions. "Won't be back for half an hour, huh??" I turned my attention to Kouji.
"Okay, so it's my fault the store doesn't open until six? And you didn't have to kick me in the stomach so hard . . ." He pouted again.
I laughed nervously. "Sorry 'bout that, Kou-chan, I kinda freaked." I paused. "Hey Kouji?"
"Hmm?" He got back up on the bed.
"Do you remember the first time you told me that you loved me? And I didn't believe you at first?"
"You mean . . . In the Digital World??"
"Yeah . . ."
"Yeah, what about it?"
"Whatever happened to the wolf-digimon? I never got to ask."
"A bunch of other Digimon who we had helped in the past came to save your lame ass." Kouji smirked, "All of them."
"Really?"
"Yep! It would've been an awesome battle to watch, but you had to go and faint and scare me half to death . . ."
I shook my head, chuckling. "Same old Kouji . . . Ya know, I'm glad you let people know what you're feeling now. It makes everything seem less complicated." I smiled warmly at him.
"Yeah, I'm happy about that, too . . . But you wanna know what else I'm happy about?"
"What?"
"You."
And with that, he kissed me. And as I closed my eyes, everything was right, everything was . . . perfect. I've found my perfect world.
