Hey everybody, I'm back again with the next chapter, BTW, I just wanted to say thanks to all of the people who have left reviews for my first fanfic on fanfiction.net. I have written other fanfics before, but this is my first one here, and I plan on putting up my other fanfics after I finish this one.
Well anyways, here's the next chapter in the story....and the plot thickens. I don't know why I just said that. I DON'T OWN DIGIMON! Now, I know why I said that. (BTW: I haven't seen this series in so long, it ain't funny. If I get any locations wrong, or basically if you see anything of error, please, tell me.)
Chapter 4 - Second Time Around
--In the real world--
"What happened?" Hikari said, dazed. She was winded, and was breathing heavily.
"Oh, you're awake. Thank god." Takeru said, as the Digidestined rushed to her side. They were inside the computer room of the school, and laid her down on a chair to rest.
"Wait, what happened?" Hikari said, again.
"None of us know, really. Abyssmon's attack was headed straight for you, the next thing we know, you were on the ground, unconcious." Miyako said.
"I thought the attack would've killed you." Takeru said, with a hint of fear in his voice.
"Wait, no....I didn't take the full blow of the attack." Hikari said, as she began to sit up. "That cloaked figure, shielded me from the blow, taking most of the beam's attack from hitting me." Hikari said.
"Wait, I know...." Hikari said, as fear shot through all of her body. She then began to cry, alot.
"What's wrong?" The group asked, concerned.
"That person....that cloaked figure....it was Daisuke." She said, tears running down her face.
"WHAT?!?!?!" The rest of the group said, shocked.
--back in the Digital World--
"Why? Why didn't you kill me? Why didn't you use your full strength?" Daisuke said, laying on the ground, coughing up blood.
"Well, first of all, the shot wasn't intended to hit you; it was intended, to hit that girl. Second, if I had used my full strength, I would've killed her, and that's not how I like my victims to die; I like to see my victims die a slow, painful death. Third, if I had used my full strength, I would have destroyed half the digital world.
"Damn you...."
"Well, it's been great chatting with you, but I must get going nowm so I'll leave you to die a slow, painful death. HAHAHAHAHAHA!" He disappeared.
He was trying to fight death, though inside of him, he felt he was fighting a losing battle. He was trying to think of all the reasons to stay alive. For his family. His friends. Hikari. The same reasons he decided to leave. But with every beat of his heart, every rush of blood, every stab of pain, he wondered what was the use. How important was it to stay alive? For what? For whom? No one cared about him. He was going to die out in the digital world, without a friend beside him.
Diziness overwhelmed him, pain stabbed every inch of his body. A lung, he felt, had to be punctured. His breath came in wheezes, agonizing, piercing. The first hint of his demise was his irregular heartbeat. It was racing, then skipping, then fluttering. Too much blood loss. Not enough to the brain. Not enough oxygen. Drowziness overtook panic. Unconsciousness would be such a relief.
And so he gave up on life. THe lung was ready to burst. The heart fluttered and stopped. The pulsing blood became a pool. He felt the sun shine on him. But soon he felt nothing. With no blood pumping, no air supplying his body, he fell limp and died.
--In the digital world's heaven, spirit world, recycle bin, whatever it's called-- (A/N: See, I have no idea what I am talking about. If you spot errors please inform me.)
"Huh, wha?" Daisuke said. "Where am I...."
"Daisuke!"
"Oh.... hey Veemon. Where are we?"
"We're in the place where all deleted and defeated monsters are sent."
"Really? I didn't know that humans could be sent here too...."
"Yes, but there is one difference." A voice said out of nowhere.
"What the? Who was that?" (flash of bright light)
--somewhere else--
"Ughhhhh. When will I ever get a break...."
"Not until Abyssmon is destroyed." The same voice said. Daisuke looked up. He saw four gargantuan sized digimon looking down upon him.
"Oh, shit!" Daisuke began to back away, when he noticed one of the digimon. "Qinglongmon?" (Azulongmon)
"Yes Daisuke. It's been a while, hasn't it?"
"Yes it has....who are these other digimon?" Daisuke said, still slightly concerned.
"We are the four digimon guardians. I as you know, am Qinglongmon, guardian of the North. This is Baihumon, guardian of the West. This is Zhuqiaomon, guardian of the South, and this is Xuanwumon (Ebonwumon), guardian of the East."
"Wow...."
"Now, onto important matters....you do realize that you are dead, right?"
"Yes, after Veemon went straight through me, I kinda realized that...."
"OK. Well, you must know 2 other important things. First, that you cannot come back to life, since you are a human, You are not a digimon, therefore, you cannot hatch into a digi-egg, like normal digimon would when they are sent here, and that goes for you too, Veemon. You cannot be reborn, since you are a special type of digimon. Second, the digidestined can't defeat Abyssmon without you."
"What?!?!?!" He wore a slightly confused expression on his face. "But I know them. They're strong enough...."
"Don't be dumb. As much as they may ridicule you, they need you as a leader; to guide them through the hardships and troubles that you, as a group, encounter. That is why you were chosen Daisuke. Note the eggs you recieved. Courage, Friendship, and Miracles. Those are all traits of a leader. Here, think of it this way. The digidestined are like a puzzle, and when one piece is missing, it is not complete, and the group can't get anything accomplished. You perhaps, are the biggest piece of the puzzle and that is why you are the leader. Because you can lead the team. When Kari was captured, you went in and rescued her. That is a true leader right there. But since you are gone, there is no leader, and the digidestined will be destroyed."
"Hmmmm....I get what you are saying, but how do you plan on going about this? I'm dead!"
"Well....there is a way...."
"Really? Tell me!"
"We must advise you to think this over." Baihumon said.
"Yes. Though you will be getting a second chance, it will not last. You will disappear once Abyssmon is defeated, that is, if you defeat him." Zhuqiaomon said.
"Not only that, think of the moral effects it will have on your comrades." Xuanwumon said.
"But you said that the team needs my help; my leadership! They need a leader to look up to! You even said that they would have no chance against Abyssmon. I am prepared to do whatever it takes to destroy Abyssmon. As long as I can destroy Abyssmon and save my friends, I will gladly put myself back into battle. Besides, I have some unsettled matters between my friends...."
"Very well then. So you are prepared to take one more shot at this?" Qinglongmon said.
"Yes. Ready Veemon?"
"You know it!"
"Very well. Before you go, take this." Qinglongmon handed Daisuke a special crystal that glowed a strange, silverish color.
"What's this?" Daisuke asked.
"Trust me. You will know when the time is right."
"OK...."
The guardians began to chant ancient sayings. There was another flash of bright light. Daisuke and Veemon were transported back to the Digital World.
"Ouch! Veemon, could you get off me?"
"Sorry."
"Well, anyways....I guess we should get to the others right now. Veemon, not a word of this to anyone, got it? Not even Gatomon. No one can know that we are already dead."
"OK! By the way, I'm starving! Can we get something to eat?"
(falls over anime style) "Well, I guess that characteristic is still with you, eh buddy?"
"Yup!"
"Oy....Well, let's get going."
--back in the computer lab--
"So, you're absolutely 100% that was Daisuke?" Takeru said.
Hikari nodded her head slowly. "The digimon the cloaked figure owned was Magnamon. Only one digimon can evolve in to Magnamon, and that is Veemon, and we all now who owns Veemon...."
"Damn...." Takeru said.
"The group sat in silence for the next five seconds when suddenly....
"Ahhhhh! Ooooof!"
"Do you mind getting off me again, Veemon!"
"Sorry."
"Ohhh....ummm....hey guys!"
The group looked frightened to death, as they stared at their supposedly dead leader.
"But I thought you were dead!" Takeru screamed, as the others backed up agaisnt the wall.
"Me? Dead? What in the world are you talking about Takeru?"
"But I could've sworn that you were the cloaked figure that shielded me." Hikari said, as she started to move towards Daisuke.
"Ummm....well....uhhh, see the thing is...."
"Don't try to fool me Daisuke. You were that cloaked figure, weren't you?"
"Alright, alright. I was the cloaked figure. OK?"
She smiled. "Oh, thank god, you're still alive." She hugged him. THe others began to gather around and formed a group hug. Daisuke stood there, oblivious to anything but three words. "....you're still alive." He pondered these words as the group hugged him. "Well, I am alive....for now." Daisuke thought to himself.
Well, that's chapter 4. How'd ya like it? Did you like it? Hate it? Should I even bother continuing to write this fanfic? Well anyways, remember, I know I screwed up somwhere, and I would greatly appreciate any corrections. Oh, and BTW, for the people who actually read this fanfic, I'm sorry, but it may take me a good month or two to get the next chapter up, since my winter vacation is over. Well, until next time, later!
Well anyways, here's the next chapter in the story....and the plot thickens. I don't know why I just said that. I DON'T OWN DIGIMON! Now, I know why I said that. (BTW: I haven't seen this series in so long, it ain't funny. If I get any locations wrong, or basically if you see anything of error, please, tell me.)
