The Digi-Slayer

Chapter 39

"Oh Davis" Wept Zade as a fresh wave of tears seeped from her eyes onto the loving shoulder of her boyfriend.

"Shh" Davis cooed as he rubbed the sobbing girl's shoulders

God knows how much time passed while they held each other, time wasn't important, nothing was important anymore, just the safety of one another. As Davis removed his face from the crook in Zade's neck, he looked around the area they kneeled in. What was once barren and rocky terrain was now a lush forest. The defeat of the Digi-Slayer must have set the whole world into some sort of reboot process, all around them, trees where growing at incredible speed, water gently rolled through river beds and the heavens above twinkled with a fiery passion. Eventually, the sounds of the poor girl's cries became fainter and fainter as her tears slowed down to a steady trickle down her cheeks.

"The spirit really did a number on her" Davis thought silently, looking at the reddened face of the girl he held "All her confidence, her courage, Ophanimon must have given her all that, and now that she's gone, what was Zade before the spirit?"

"Please don't leave me" The smallest of whimpers escaped from Zade's lips.

"What" Davis looked down to see his girlfriend's face relaxed as it rested on his chest, her eyes were shut but still tears flowed from them.

"Don't leave, please," Zade whimpered again.

"Your asleep" Davis stated, positioning the girl in a more comfortable position.

But as Davis tried to lay her down, Zade gripped his jacket with fierce determination. Davis quickly held her closer as a panicked look formed on her face.

"Don't worry, I won't leave" Davis whispered into Zade's ear, making the grip she had on his jacket loosen, only slightly though.

"Davis" The voice snapped Davis out of his reverie and he focused his vision to the origin of the call to see the rest of the Digi-destined walking, or limping in Gennai's case, towards him.

"Where glad you're alive" The de-transformed Kari exclaimed, holding her beaten and battered brother after digging him and the others out.

"STAY BACK" Davis yelled as he held out his hand, causing the ground in front of the group to shoot up, creating a wall between them.

"Davis" Yolie yelled, "What the hell is wrong with you?"

"I said stay back," Davis growled, his one good eye slightly glowing with energy "You've done enough damaged for today"

"Oh come on" Tai yelled over the wall "Why are we back here, I thought you said you forgive us?"

"Wrong" Davis said, lowering the wall so he could see the Digi-destined.

It was true he was mad at them, very mad; it was a good thing Ken was unconscious so he could not see Davis' rage.

"Then what's the problem" Matt said, his knocked out brother slung over his shoulder "You were all friendly before"

"Do you know how many bloody things have been in my body lately" Davis yelled, "All that good energy amplified my emotions as well as my power"

"So" Kari began, her voice shaky "Deep down you really did hate us, the Digi-Slayer only showed us your feeling towards us"

"Yes and no" Davis huffed, he really didn't want to explain this so elaborately "I do hate you on some level, after all the stuff you have done to me it wouldn't be possible for me not to"

Davis stopped to see the faces of everybody. Those who weren't unconscious had there heads hung low in shame, Kari and Mimi were trying hard to stifle their tears, but they failed miserably as droplets of water shimmered in the rising sun as they fell to the grassy earth.

"But what I've been showing you is my hatred to you a dozen fold" Davis said "I may hate you, but I don't want to kill any of you"

"So then, a part of you forgives us" Izzi said, still sounding unsure.

Davis sighed, but held firm "Yes, on some level, the energy of the Digi-world showed you that, but a simple apology won't do"

"Then what can we do?" Kari asked, almost begging.

"I don't know, that's something you'll have to figure out on your own" And with that, Davis picked up Zade and carried her to the nearest T.V set.

The good thing about where the fight took place was that is was the exact position Davis' port was, and as the blinding light faded, Davis found himself in his own room. Not two seconds after he placed his sleeping girlfriend on his bed, the sound of someone pounding on the floorboards could be heard, and as his door was almost ripped away, an ecstatic Jun appeared.

"DAVIS" She yelled as she tackled him, but soon this friendly gesture put Davis in a world of pain.

"Ah, come on Jun" Davis said as he tried to pull his head from Jun's arms.

"No way you big jerk" Jun raved as she tightened the headlock.

Suddenly, her arms loosened and tears flowed down her face as they hit Davis' head. Davis was stunned to see Jun crumple to the floor in a kneeling position and start weeping.

"Jun what's wro-" Davis started, before Jun's fist lightly beat against his chest.

"You are you dummy" Jun cried, letting all the worry and desperation she felt for brother loose in a torrent of tears and fists "Do you have ANY idea how much worry you've put us through, we thought you were dead, or worse" she couldn't continue, all she could do was cry and hit her brother some more.

After Jun collected herself, she left to go make some tea for her brother.

"Where are mum and dad?" Davis asked, throwing off his jacket and sitting down on the living room couch.

"There out shopping" Jun said as she poured a cup of green tea for Davis and handed it to him "And if you think I was bad, you should hear what mum's going to do to you"

Davis could only laugh nervously as he took a slip of his tea.

"Ahh" Davis sighed after taking a sip "I've missed your tea Jun, no one makes it as well as you do"

Jun could only beam at her brother's compliment, but her smile faded away as a dull 'thud' could be heard in another room. The faint sound of footsteps could be heard walking around the apartment. Thinking it could be a burglar, Jun instinctively reached for anything heavy she could defend herself with. As the footsteps came nearer and nearer, Jun tightened her grip on the skillet. Suddenly the door shot open and a silver blur emerged, bypassing the stunned Jun and heading strait into Davis, causing the boy to shoot back into the couch.

"DaviswheredidyougoIwassofrightenedandIwasinastrangeplaceandIcouldn'tfindyouanywhereOHDAVIS" The silver blur, now silver haired girl spoke at incredible speed before letting loose a wave of tears into Davis' shirt.

Davis looked down at the crying girl before looking up at his very confused sister.

"What was that?" Jun asked, the skillet she was carrying fell to the ground

"Quite a long story actually" Davis laughed awkwardly as he tried to reach his tea while the silver haired girl clutched his neck.

------------------------------------------------

"And so after that I came back here" Davis explained as he finished his seventh cup of tea.

About halfway though Zade finally let go of Davis and listened to the story as she herself partook of the very good tea that she was offered. After the story and having three cups herself, Zade excused herself to use the bathroom.

"Quite a sweety you've got there Davis" Jun snickered as she watched her brother's face redden with embarrassment "The way she latched onto you is so cute"

"Ah, come on" Davis laughed nervously, scratching the back of his head.

"I'm serious" Jun said as she emptied the remainder of tea into her cup "You know mum always wanted me to be shy and reserved like that, she's going to love her as a daughter"

Davis choked on his tea as soon as he heard what Jun said. Spluttering a bit, Davis had to put his tea down to try and get his breathing in order. Jun could only laugh at his reaction.

"Give me a brake would you" Davis said, coughing lightly "I'm not even old enough to start joking about that"

"I dunno" Jun said slyly as she scratched her chin "Mum and dad were pretty young when they got married"

But before the conversation could continue, Zade walked back into the room.

"Did I miss anything?" She asked as she sat next to Davis.

"Not a thing" Jun smiled.

"If you would excuse me ladies" Davis said as he stood up, those seven cups of tea finally catching up with him.

"So Zade" Zade snapped her head away from the door Davis just closed and looked strait at his smiling sister "You really like Davis don't you?"

Zade nodded several times, Jun could only giggle at the girl, which caused Zade to blush.

"He's really sweet" Zade said, remembering all they have been through "I don't think we'd even be here if I wasn't for him"

"Yeah" Jun sighed, leaning back against the leather chair "He's special that way, never gives up until he gets the outcome he wants"

"He is, that's why I like him so much" Zade said softly, her gaze going back to the bathroom door.

"Like, or love" Once again, Jun's words snapped her attention back towards the auburn haired girl.

"I-I-I don't know" Zade whispered, her voice weighed down with thoughts of Davis, until her head rose and determination was etched on her face "Yes, I do love him, love him with all my heart"

Jun could only smile at the girl.

"Now if only could get one" Jun said aloud, her head resting in her right palm as she daydreamed about Matt.

"Get one what?" Davis asked as he reentered the room, water still dripping down his hands.

"Ah, Davis your eye" Zade exclaimed, rushing over to the boy.

"What?" Davis said as he prodded the gash over it, there was blood on his fingers as he pulled them back "Oh man, I just cleaned it"

"Ack" Jun choked, looking at her brother's cut eye "Davis, how bad is that?"

"Well" Davis began, rubbing the blood between his fingers "I can't see out of it anymore"

Jun rushed up to the boy, inspecting the cut on his face. As she pulled up the lip, she released it and took a few steps back in fear.

"DAVIS YOU IDIOT" She yelled, startling Davis and Zade "YOU NEED A DOCTOR TO LOOK AT THAT, I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A CUT"

"No I don't" Davis yelled back, slightly lower than his sister's "A doctor can't do anything for it"

"You're truly an idiot" Jun said at a normal level as she reached for a first aid kit "At least let me clean it properly before it gets infected"

"You really should Davis" Zade said before whispering something in his ear.

"Alright" Davis sighed, sitting down as Jun pulled out some disinfectant.

"What did you tell him?" Jun asked as she cleaned the wound around her brother's eye.

"That I think an eye-patch would make him look even more handsome," Zade laughed, causing the silent Davis to blush a bit.

-----------------------------------------------------

"Now that wasn't so bad was it?" Zade asked as she and Davis walked down the slightly crowded streets.

"Mmph" Davis huffed; a black eye-patch now adorned his face "I'm just glad Jun didn't put a skull and cross-bones on it"

"Hmm, Davis the pirate" Zade thought, making Davis scream in protest.

And so they walked, Davis ranting and Zade giggling. The two continued to walk in comfortable silence after Davis' little spat, that was, until a black limousine pulled up in front of them.

"What in the world?" Davis said as he felt Zade tighten her grip on his arm and pull herself closer to him.

Unfortunately, the grip Zade had on Davis was not strong enough as two black blurs emerged from the car and pried Davis and Zade apart. The two blurs appeared to be guards of some sort, dressed in black suits and reflective sunglasses. One had a hand on Davis' chest and another had his hands on Zade's shoulders. Davis' good eye glowed with fury as the man holding Zade was forcing her into the limo, her protests going unnoticed.

"Davis, don't" Zade said, shrugging off her captor and moving into the car.

At her words, Davis' eye faded back to normal. Looking up, he noticed the man that held him back slowly reaching for a pistol that hung from a shoulder holster.

"Let him in" Zade said emotionlessly to the man.

Following her instructions, the large man dropped his hand off Davis and glared at the as he slid into the extended car; Davis matched the man's stare until the door shut closed.

"Zade, what is all of this?" Davis asked Zade, squeezing her hand slightly.

"It's alright" Zade smiled, letting Davis know everything was okay.

But Davis knew better, he knew the Zade that was talking to him was a lot like the one he had first met, the new Zade would be scared and fearful, she was just putting on a mask to reassure him. Davis thought he better play along.

"Alright" He said, smiling back at her.

The two sat in silence, facing them were the two bodyguards that forced them into the car. After a while the car finally started to slow down and once again the two men force the children out of the car. Davis looked around his surroundings, and in front of him was a massive building. Unfortunately Davis did not have time to read the company name as he was rudely shoved through the front doors. Upon entering the building, the two were led towards a large elevator with golden doors, it was obvious this was for personnel only as the two men place two keys on each side and turn them at the same time. With a ring from the elevator, the two doors opened and both Davis and Zade were moved in, Zade walking normally and Davis being quite forcefully shoved in. The sudden feeling of added weight notified Davis that he was moving upwards, and after a few moments the feeling in his stomach ebbed away, indicating that they had arrived at there level. Even though he felt like a prisoner, Davis couldn't help but marvel at the exquisite paintings that adorned the walls and the lush carpet under his feet. After passing through another set of doors, Davis and Zade entered a large room, in which the backs of three people could be seen, they took no notice though as the man currently talking to them held their attention. After hear a few quick French words, Davis watched as the three people got up and left. The two bodyguards followed suite of the businessmen and left, leaving only Zade and Davis with the man sitting behind a very large, very expensive mahogany office desk.

"Hello Zade" The man said, his face emotionless as he entwined his fingers in front of his face.

"Hello father" Zade said, matching the man's emotionless tone.

"There's that mask again" Davis thought to himself.

Little did he know that mask was about to shatter into a thousand pieces.

"WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN YOUNG LADY?" The man known as Zade's father yelled as he stood up and slammed his hands down on the desk "HERE YOU ARE NOW, A SMUG LOOK ON YOUR DAMN FACE AFTER YOU DISSAPEAR FROM MY WATCH FOR OVER SIX MONTHS, DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE PAPERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THIS? THEY THINK I'VE MURDERED YOU AND YOUR DISSAPEARENCE PROVES IT, MY COMPANY HAS LOST MILLIONS FROM THIS WHOLE ESCAPADE AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS STAND THERE"

Davis watched as saliva launched from the man's lips and landed on the desk; he also noticed the man's face change colors from red to being tinged with purple. His eyes bulged in rage and the blood vessels in them became clearer to see. Turning to Zade, he watched as the girl began to waver before falling to her knees, her shoulders racking as tears hit the cushy carpet below. Davis was about to walk over to help Zade up before her father focused his rage onto him.

"AND WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?" He spat, looking at the boy with disgust "YOU'RE THE ONE RESPONCIBLE FOR ALL THIS, I HAVE HALF A MIND TO THROW YOU OUT OF MY OFFICE, LOOK AT YOU, YOU'RE JUST SOME PUNK MY DAUGHTER'S BEEN HANGING AROUND, IF I WERE YOU I WOU-"

"OH SHUT YOUR FACE YOU WINDBAG" Davis yelled, his volume matching and exceeding the ranting man's.

Zade's father ignored Davis' advice "HOW DARE YOU, YOU LITTLE SH-"

"I SAID SHUT YOUR YAP" Davis yelled, running up to the opposite of the desk and slamming his fist through the extremely hard wood.

Pulling his hand out of the cracked desk, Davis could only smirk as he pulled splinters off his gloves at the priceless look on Zade's father's face. The face did not last long though, and as the man's features returned to normal, a smile formed on his face as he pressed a little button on the underside of his desk. Not even a second passed before the two previous guards from before rushed into the room, stopping next to Davis, their pistols drawn and aimed at Davis' temples.

Looking down at the sobbing Zade, Davis' eye glowed like before, and with lightening speed, he grabbed the two guns by their barrels and pointed them at the legs of their partners. Not realizing his speed, the two guards fired off a round, but as they pulled the trigger at Davis' head, they actually shot each other's legs, making them fall to the ground in pain.

"You" Davis began as he crushed the guns into balls of iron "Are" He walked over to Zade's father "The" He picked the man up "Worst" He threw the man across the room and into a wall "Father" He picked up the massive desk, wires connected to it broken and flailing about "EVER" He threw the desk into he direction of the cowering man.

As the desk flew strait at him, Zade's father could only curl up into a whimpering ball and braced for impact. Though the sound of shattering wood could be heard, the pain never came, and as he looked up, he saw the shattered desk next to him, splinters still flying around it. As Davis picked Zade up, the two began walking towards the door; that is, until Zade's father spoke.

"Yo-you-you're disowned" The man spluttered.

"Daddy" Zade said, standing without the support of her boyfriend, at least not physically.

"What?" He spat, looking at her with disgust, knowing that he still strikes fear in her heart.

"GO TO HELL" She yelled as she walked coolly out of the door Davis was holding open.

"You know" Davis smiled at the fallen man "She does make a good point"

And with a short flash from his eye, Davis slammed the door as hard as he could, the sheer force from the slam, caused some of the supporting beams around the room to crack and falter under the weight they carried, dropping the ceiling above and if he was a few feet to the left, Zade's father would be injured, not that Zade or Davis cared much though.

"Now what Zade?" Davis asked as they exited the building.

"We go home" Zade replied, opening the limo they were previously in and climbed inside.

Davis only shrugged "Works for me" and with that he too entered the exquisite vehicle.

As Davis sat down on the leather interior, Zade was busy climbing over seats until she got to the front of the car, and as she rapped on the black glass slightly, it slid down to show the face of the middle-aged driver.

"Evening Ms. Zade" Said the man as he tilted his hat towards her "Long time no see"

Zade smiled sweetly at the man "It's good to see you too Max"

Max returned the smile and looked over Zade's shoulder to see the confused Davis sitting at the end "Who's the pirate?"

Zade could only laugh as Davis silently fumed "He's my boyfriend"

"Well he sure is a lucky devil" Max the chauffer smiled, as Zade blushed "By the way, what was that loud crash I heard?"

"That was the pirate destroying daddy's office" Zade said, watching Davis' as he tried to decide whether he should be embarrassed, or mad.

"Don't mind me Ms. Zade, but in my opinion, serves the bastard right" Max said, looking at the boy with new respect "He must have done something really bad to tick him off like that"

"He disowned me" Zade said, her voice mixed with both hope and sorrow "So this will probably be my last ride"

"Then this shall be my last drive" Max said proudly

"Oh Max, no" Zade protested, anxiety in her teary eyes "Don't quit on my account"

"Ms. Zade" Max smiled as he wiped a tear from his passenger's cheek "I only kept this job knowing that I had you to talk to, if you go down, then it shall be my honor to go down with you"

"Oh Max" Zade said as she hugged the driver over the wall dividing them.

"Shh, Ms. Zade, it will be alright" Max cooed as he put the girl down "If I remember correctly I still have somewhere to drive you"

"Home please Max" Zade sobbed, moving back next to a silent Davis "And thank you"

"My pleasure Ms. Zade" Max said as he started the car and began to drive off.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"He was the first to comfort me after mother died" Zade said as she and Davis watched Max and the limo drive off "I would never have had the strength to carry on if it wasn't for him"

"You are amazing" Davis said, looking at the girl beside him, before looking up at the doors to Zade's extravagant mansion.

The words above the two large doors read 'Yamanako Estate'.

"Yamanako?" Davis questioned, looking at Zade "As in the weapons developer"

Zade nodded "Yeah"

That was good enough for Davis; he didn't like prying into people's lives unless they let him in. Walking up the stairs and through the doors, Davis and Zade were instantly greeted by a maid.

"Ms. Zade, you're back," The maid said

"Yes I am, though I don't plan to be long," Zade said as she started walking up the stairs, Davis right behind her.

"Ah Ms. Zade, your allowance" The maid followed behind her and gave her a check.

Davis looked at the check and lost his balance on the steps, he had never seen so many zeros before in his life, and on his girlfriend's allowance.

"You know, I have a better idea for this" Zade said as she handed the check back "Give this to Max, tell him as a going away present, for both him and myself"

"Will do Ms. Zade" The maid bowed and hurried down the stairs.

"Are you friends with all the help?" Davis asked as he climbed the stairs behind Zade.

"If I wasn't, who would I have had to talk to?" Zade replied, smiling as she waved to more maids and butlers.

"You amaze me with each passing second" Davis said, making Zade turn around and lightly peck him on the cheek.

After walking down a few more long corridors, the duo finally entered Zade's room. And while Davis looked around at how massive and extravagant the room was, Zade packed a few prized possessions in a small backpack and started up her computer.

"Are we porting?" Davis asked as Zade opened up her own port program

"Just one other thing" And with that, Zade walked up to the small intercom next to her door.

"Excuse me everyone" Zade's voice boomed throughout the mansion, gaining the attention of every one of the staff members "I am hereby giving everyone a four week holiday with double, no triple pay"

The cheers of celebration traveled throughout the house and could be clearly heard in Zade's room. As Davis looked out side and into the main area, he saw all the help gathered round for a party, with streamers and confetti and a big banner saying 'Thank you Ms. Zade'.

"How did they get that done so fast?" Davis wondered as he pulled his head back into the room.

"All set" Zade said as she approached the computer, but was held back as Davis held her in his arms.

"Have I told you how incredible you are?" Davis purred into her ear.

Zade's response was a long kiss on the lips, before prying herself off a reluctant Davis and holding out her Digi-vice towards the computer. The facility deep within the snowy fields of the Digi-world was dark and silent, the only source of light was a small computer screen, but from this screen, a blinding flash of light appeared, illuminating everything in it's paths. As the light faded, to figures emerged, though the darkness was the least of their troubles as they were currently held together in a passionate kiss. This went on for a few more seconds until both were surprised as the lights suddenly turned on.

"SURPRISE!!!"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bam, ending…

Hahaha, I did it again, everyone thought I was going to leave it like that. No, there is one more chapter remaining, though it will be a little short. Well, till we meet again for the last time, or until I decide to write a sequel, anyway, enjoy.
