Chapter 4
~ A/N ~
Konnichiwa! I hope everyone had a nice holiday break. I know I did! ^.^ Thankies to all who reviewed, love you all! Special thanks to Lily Potter who has become my editor and to the mysterious Andrew who told me that I had chapter 2 up twice.
*blushy*
Sorry about that. Anyway, thank you Lily and Andrew, I appreciate it!
Twenty-four reviews, and hopefully more to come. I am shooting for 30 by the next chapter so please R/R!
Since this is going so well, I think I might write some more stories!
Speaking of stories. I have yet to see any new re-views for 'True Love Calls' or 'Caffeine!' If any of you like Gundam Wing or Yu Yu Hakusho, I suggest you read these stories, it would mean a lot to Koori-Yami, Ravynne- Satu-Darkflame and me if you did. Tell your friends, family and then R/R please!
Oh, I apologias about not updating for these past three weeks. .. Man I'm slacking, but I will make it up to you guys by posting two, that's right, two chapters this week instead of the usual one. How do ya like d'em apples?
For those who where confused about the whole 2+2=Fish thing, It is from the Fairly Oddparents Movie 'Abra Catastrophe'. Gotta love my little brother for actually getting me to sit down to watch it.
*stops to re-cap said movie*
Hee hee, I like Cosmo, he's insane.
*shakes her head*
Anyway, moving onto bigger and better things. I hope you enjoy chapters 4 and 5. Please R/R! Ja! ^.~

Jadeite lead our party indoors, and then brought us into what I remembered to be the living room. It was just as I had seen it three years ago, the carpet, the Japanese style table. all of its entirety, well, except for a few new books. My eyes wandered to the windows covering the walls.
I could hardly contain myself as I saw the rainbow colored fish swim by. It still felt like I could just reach out and touch the clear-blue water if I got close enough, just like when I was eleven, although I never admitted it to the others. In the back of my mind, I knew there was glass. I felt like a little kid again, standing there in Jadeite's living room. I caught Taichi's glance and he smiled in his childish, playful way. I could tell that he was as excited as I was.
"You can go ahead and sit down if you'd like." Jadeite said gesturing towards the table. "I'll be right back with the tea."
"Do you need assistance?" Gabumon asked politely with Agumon nodding in agreement.
"That is very kind of you Gabumon and Agumon, yes, I could use some help."
I watched as our Digimon disappear behind Jadeite, leaving Taichi and I alone.
We sat quietly watching the fish swim by and listening to the clock tick with each second that passed.
"Yama?" Taichi asked as he lay back onto the carpet.
"Yeah?" I asked.
"Do you think that Jadeite will be able to fix this DNA digivolving thing?"
I paused. I really didn't know if he could, but I guess I had to tell Taichi something.
"Of course Tai, I'm sure that he'll think of something." I answered, adding a smile.
"Yeah, I guess your right." He said, smiling back. "Thanks."
Just then, Jadeite, Gabumon and Agumon returned with the tea. They sat down with us, Tai moving into a sitting position again, and awaited our tea. Once the tea had been served and Jadeite had taken a sip, he popped the question.
"So, what seems to be the problem?"
I did not know to whom he was asking. Tai put his head down and looked at his tea. I found that I had done the same. Finally.
"Um, we seemed to be having trouble DNA digivolving." Agumon piped, answering Jadeite.
"Oh, I see." He said rubbing his chin and nodding. He then turned to us again. "Do any of you know what might be causing this?"
"No." I said defensively and by the looks I received from Agumon, Gabumon and Jadeite, I had answered it too soon. Tai just kept his head down.
"Well then, let's do a little experiment shall we?" Jadeite said as he stood. "Taichi and Yamato, may I borrow your digivices for a moment?"
We nodded and handed him the said items.
"This won't hurt a bit." He said before pointing our digivices at our Digimon and pressing the first key once for Agumon, and twice for Gabumon. Once completed, beams of light shot from our digivices at our Digimon. All I could do was stare. Jadeite acted as if this happened all the time. The whole thing lasted for about ten seconds before it was turned off.
"The affects should ware off momentarily." Jadeite added. I looked over at Gabumon who was shaking as if he was cold and Agumon was fanning himself as if he was at the Bahamas. Taichi and I looked at each other with confusion written all over our faces. We then turned to Jadeite, pleading silently for an explanation. He smiled then answered our plead.
"Inner elements." He said before explaining further. "Taichi, you and Agumon share the element of Fire. Yamato, you and Gabumon share the element of ice. The reaction that you see before you is due to element was being extracted from Gabumon and Agumon's inner beings before retreating back inside again. Nevertheless, it is all over now. No worries."
We nodded as a sign that we understood.
So Taichi and my elements are practically opposites.
Jadeite attached the digi-vices to his computer downloading their contents.
"Forty-two, Forty-three, Forty-four." he mumbled to himself until the computer stopped at fifty.
"It's just as I feared." He said with a sigh.
"Why? What's wrong?" Tai asked concerned. Jadeite took in a deep breath and continued.
"Agumon and Gabumon's DNA matched perfectly." He said with a sigh.
Tai blinked a couple times.
"Isn't that good?" he asked. Jadeite got up from the computer chair and started to pace about the room, mumbling incoherent things until he stopped in front of us.
"This means that the problem is with you two."
"And that's a problem because?" I asked, heart pounding.
"Let's just say that making human souls compatible for a second time is very difficult and dangerous. If the problem had been with Gabumon or Agumon, we could have added or subtracted digi-DNA easily, but humans."
Tai looked at me again and his face now held confusion and worry.
"How dangerous?" I asked.
"Could be life threatening."
I looked at Tai and I knew I looked panic stricken.
Death?
Surprisingly, I wasn't scared at all. The thought of dying with my best friend was comforting, somehow. The only thing I would regret would be dying at fourteen and leaving everyone. Yet, I couldn't live without at least trying to bond with Tai again.
"I'll do it." Tai said, surprising me and everyone else. I smiled and nodded.
"Me too."
"Are you sure?" Jadeite asked.
We nodded.
"All right then. Let's hope it goes smoothly."
"Let's get this over with so we can go home, huh Yama." Tai added.
"Yeah, let's do this."
"Okay. Tai and Yama, please come sit over here." Jadeite ordered as he picked up an ancient looking book from off the shelf. We obeyed.
"Now, join hands."
My face brushed pink.
"Now close your eyes and relax. I promise that you will be all right. I won't let anything happen to you."
"Kay." We said as we closed our eyes.
I was in that strange place again.but it felt more familiar and warm. Tai was there like last time and I could not help but smile. I could hear Jadeite's disembodied voice mumbling something in what I guessed as ancient Japanese. The only word that I could understand was the word 'courage', and once Jadeite had said that, the void disappeared, with Tai and all. Taichi clasped my hand firmly.as if in pain. I tried desperately to open my eyes. I had to help Tai! To my dismay, I could not open them, no matter how hard I tried.
"Yama, it's okay. Taichi is all right. Calm down or it will be the last of you." Jadeite said calmly. I stopped, took in a deep breath and relaxed. Jadeite continued to mumble again and I awaited the word that would pass my judgment. Finally, I heard it. Friendship.
I felt a cold sensation spread all over my body. Like ice. It must have been my element I was feeling. I couldn't help but squeeze Tai's hand as the cooling sensation turned to pain.
Suddenly, everything stopped. I slowly opened my eyes, trying to get everything back into focus.
"You okay Yama?" Tai asked.
"Yeah, I'm okay." I said smiling weakly. I looked him over, I could tell that he was extremely tired, with a fading crest of courage on his forehead. I realized that I felt the same.
"So, what's up?" Tai asked Jadeite.
"Well, It's kind of complex but from what I can gather yours and Yama's souls are advancing so to speak."
We gave him a questionable look. He smiled and continued.
"That means that eventually you will be able to tap into the powers that your crests posses."
"Sweet!" Tai exclaimed, ruffling my hair.
"You said it!" I replied as I caught him in an arm lock and presented him with a Yamato style noogie.
"What puzzles me." Jadeite started, putting a stop to our fun. "Is its rate. The rate has changed from 4.5 to 9.0 in just a couple months. If this continues, you two are probably going to be experiencing even more advanced material."
"Like?" Tai asked. Jadeite paused.
"I have absolutely no idea." He replied.
"Well that's just great. I'll be in class and suddenly my hands will start glowing and my hair will turn yellow and I can shoot power beams..."
I clamped my hand over his mouth to stop his ranting.
"Taichi, this isn't Dragon Ball Z." I said softly, removing my hand.
He blushed with embarrassment.
"Gomen, I guess I got carried away."
"It's okay." I reassured him. "Anyway, do we have any clues onto what we might expect?"
Jadeite shook his head.
"Nope, this is all new. But look onto the bright side, you guys are the first to be able to tap into Oozulongmon's power source so deeply."
We nodded, taking in the compliment and each thinking about what powers we might posses in the near future.
Thirty minutes later, we were back in our own downtown, still pondering what Jadeite had said.
"So, we'll just go with the flow." Tai said sighing.
"Yeah, well whatever happens, we'll be okay. Cause we have each other." I said softly. Tai looked at me and we started laughing.
"It's corny, but it's true!" Tai said through surpressed laughter. I guess we were laughing to hard because we got some hard core stares from the people around us.
"C'mon let's go find some grub, my treat." Tai said grabbing my hand.
"Taichi, I can pay for-"
Tai just shook his head, and we started off to find a restaurant. I happily held onto Tai as we passed shops and questioning eyes, our gathered hands swinging at our sides.
