Chapter1

She left Hinutawamon' s palace without looking back and walked straight to where the others were. She stopped near a lake and washed her face, nobody will notice that she had been crying. The piece of paper was neatly folded into her jeans' pocket. When she arrived only Tai, Sora, Davis and T.K were still playing. The others, too exhausted to continue, were sitting under the shade of a tall tree.

Liu walked slowly towards them.

Tai: " hey Liu, wanna play??"

Liu: " no, thanks"

She looked strange, Tai knew it. He was about to call her when the ball flew right in his face, preventing him from doing so. Liu could hear Sora's infinite apologies and the unrestrained laughing of the other two. Matt was sitting a little upwards, as he preferred staying alone. She walked up to him careful to avoid the others, as much as possible.

Matt stopped playing his harmonica when she approached and wondered what on earth would make her talk to him. They didn't exactly have a wonderful relationship.

Matt: " hey, what do..."

He stopped noticing the definite terribly, sad face and red eyes. She had been crying.

She sat down underneath a nearby tree, looking away from him.

Liu: " Matt, who am I?"

What the hell is she talking about? Maybe she's even madder than I thought!.

MATT: " come on, what do you want?"

Liu: " I am absolutely serious"

Matt: " I ..think...you're Liu, 15, a paranoid, over serious girl...."

He stopped she was crying.

Matt: " hey, I'm...I'm ....sorry....I was just joking....you shouldn't take it this badly..."

She smiled a little.

Matt: " What is it? What happened at Hinutawamon?"

Liu: " how do you know I was there? you haven't been eavesdropping, have you?"

Matt: " No, but as you were not here around your beloved Tai and Van wanted to speak to you alone, yesterday. I thought that it meant trouble and the only thing I could associate with trouble was him. See it was just logic not spying."

Liu: " oh, ok."

This was serious, terribly serious. No acidic comments, no reaction at all.

He slowly moved towards her and placed his hand on her forehead. She looked at him entirely confused.

Matt: " I know, you're sick."

Liu: " what makes you think that?"

He sat down next to her, and for a little while left his rough, arrogant self behind and spoke very softly.

Matt: " it's just it isn't normal for you to be so quite. Wanna talk?"

Liu: " I ...no, Matt, thanks but talking about it is the last thing I want to do"

She got up and left for the little house up the hill they used as a home when the digidestineds were staying for more than a day. It had been built with the help of some digimons, their friends. It was small, cosy with just a couple of rooms and a very small kitchen.

Tai went over to Matt when Liu went away, his face still had the ball's red mark visible.

Tai: " How is she?"

Matt: " I don't know what to think. It's just she definitely isn't fine."

Tai: " did she talk to you or something?"

Matt: " No, but she was crying"

Tai: " What??!! And you left her alone? What kind of friend are you??"

Matt: " she wanted to stay alone and I just thought that having me around wouldn't help her at all."

Tai: " Let's see what will happen, but I have a very bad feeling about this"

Two days passed. Liu had been very quiet and rarely spoke with anyone. Van had reappeared the day before to talk to her, which seemed to have depressed her even more. Tai and the rest didn't know what to do, today they were supposed to go back home. At three o'clock everybody was packed and ready. Van had to open a portal for the human world in two hours time and the digidestined had decided to spend them with their digimon. Liu, though, had been locked up all day with Vegamon next to her.

The entire group was gathered in front of the house. Liu appeared half an hour before their departure.

Tai: " hey, Liu come on, we're about to leave"

Liu: " I'm not coming"

Suddenly everybody silenced, and stared at her.

Joe: " what are you talking about?? You can't stay here and you know that!!"

Liu: " I'm not staying here either"

They glanced at each other confused.

T.K: " so, where are you going?"

Liu: " Home."

Izzy: " But your home is where we are going"

Liu: " No, I'm sorry... I should have told you before"

Tai: " Spit it out."

Liu: " two days ago, Van told me everything about my past. Hinutawamon thinks that I come from another dimension and that I should go back."

Tai: " What???? But that's impossible and you know it!!"

Van appeared behind Tai's back and put his hand on his shoulder.

Van: " Tai, it's the truth."

Joe: " you...you...can't!!! do they have any proof??? You can't believe everything they say!!"

Liu: " Yes, they have proof. I'm sorry I should have told you before but somehow saying it made it real. I don't know...I don't want to leave you guys but...I can't stay."

Sora: " why not??? I mean they can't make you go if you don't want to!!!"

Mimi: " yeah, it's not fair!!"

Matt: " Stop it. Whatever you say won't change the facts"

He started to leave with Gabumon at his side.

Liu: " Matt...I..."

Matt: " you should have told me, but anyway try not to make anybody's life miserable."

She smiled.

Liu: " that's something I reserve just for you"

He waved her goodbye without turning round and vanished in the forest.

Tai: " When are you leaving?"

Liu: " after you will"

Mimi: " can't we stay here till you're gone?"

Liu: " no, cause once I go away you won't remember anything about me, not even that I existed."

All: " WHAT!!!???"

Liu: " it will be better this way"

Davis: " this is stupid"

Kari: " it's not fair"

Liu: " you can't remember someone who never actually existed"

Van : " It's time"

A kind of a red and blue portal appeared. One by one each hugged Liu and said goodbye before entering the portal to the human world. Matt was the last.

Liu: " hey, goodbye then. And try to be less arrogant with people."

She knew he wasn't the kind of guy who liked hugs so she decided upon a normal hand shake, but he didn't take her hand instead he hugged her, smiled and left without saying anything.

Liu: " I'll miss you guys"

The portal closed in front of her eyes, it was time for her to go now. Right now if someone asked her how she felt the only answer she could think of was 'afraid', after all she knew nothing about that place and the people!!. She had a sudden idea of running away and stay hidden for sometime, then when Van would give up the search she could find a way to go back home. But her plan will never be accomplished, Van appeared behind her a few seconds later.

Van: " Hey, don't be so sad, we'll come to see you!"

Liu looked at him, her last chance of keeping her life.

Liu: " Can't I just stay here and keep this identity?"

Van: " This is not your world. You will never be completely happy cause

you don't belong here."

A portal opened in front of her. It was pitch black inside, this only increased her fear. But Van was right, she didn't belong there and maybe if she didn't like the place she could come back and change her identity, after all she had done this before. She stared at the vast emptiness of the portal and entered inside it.
