Tai sat on the beach, the sand tickling his feet. The wind flowing through him, the pure silence in the air. Pure bliss. Pure freedom. Something Tai had been looking for, for a long time.
Some where, where the only thing he could hear were the voices in his head. And the soft lapping of waves on the sand. He looked out to see, the only illumination the spherical moon that was set in front of him.
He was hugging his knees and felt his wings resting on his shoulders gently moving up and down every now and again. Tai loved to fly. The exhilaration of the air beating at his skin, the movement of his body so swiftly and gracefully. Something Tai never had as a normal human.
Tai remembered the experience of being in the air. Every now and again he would look down at the vast cities below. People wandering around mindlessly, the only thing on their mind their comfy beds. The small amount of cars zooming around the streets as fast as possible.
Tai basked in the freedom of the air, the only thing that kept him at a simple pace were the wings themselves. They were part of his body, but they had a mind of their own. They were the ones who controlled Tai's movement. When Tai was getting slightly disorientated at not being able to feel his feet, the wings would flap again causing him to go faster. But that never helped him get his feet back.
The only time he felt his feet was when he landed on the beach. Even then he felt he couldn't control his actions. As soon as his feet touched the ground he felt no support, and fell to the floor in disorientation. The wings flew out and stopped the fall. Tai understood that the wings couldn't kill him or else they wouldn't have anything to survive on. But they could torment him… Tai wasn't sure he liked this relationship…
He closed his eyes to think about his experiences. Every one more surreal than the last. But the one that scared him the most was the guy who grabbed him this morning. He had wings like the ones he had now. What had that guy done to him? All he remembered was those deep grey eyes then burning… that was it burning…
He felt a sudden comfort. The wings opened gently and wrapped themselves around Tai's body. Tai smiled to himself. This guys weren't so bad.
Prosperine lifted her arms high into the air. The box floated into the air slowly.
"What are you doing Prosperine?" Verrine asked irritably. He wanted to kill someone! He wanted to cause the death of one of these meddling digi-destined. And he wanted to enjoy it. By the time Prosperine had finished they'd all be dead.
"Summoning help." Prosperine whispered.
"How?" Verrine walked over to the box.
"You'll see." Prosperine grinned and the box flashed an enormously bright light. Verrine was blinded.
Cody walked into the ward slowly. His grandpa needed to come for some more yoghurts, the hospital stuff was apparently the best. Cody didn't really understand his grandpa's logic but it didn't really bother him. He then saw Sora's name on the sign at the front of the reception. He told his grandpa where he would be and wandered around in search of it.
As he walked in he saw something very unusual, he saw a white haired boy lying on the seats outside of the curtains that surrounded Sora. He walked over to the boy timidly and looked at his face.
The boy was asleep. He took a closer look to make sure he was ok. But jumped back a metre.
"Izzy?" Cody whispered. He took another closer look at the white haired boy. It was definitely him… Had he dyed his hair?
He felt the boy's cheeks carefully, he was so pale. He edged away. A cold sweat. Izzy wasn't well either? Or was Izzy the one supposed to be sick. Cody turned around to have a peak in at Sora. He didn't see her.
All he saw was a pale skinned woman with black hair. She was hooked up to all sorts of stuff. She looked like she was suffering a coma too. Cody was getting extremely uncomfortable in this place. Too many sick people. He looked at the sign above the bed.
"Sora!" Cody now was completely freaked. He jumped out of the curtained area and out of the small room, what was happening?
He ran down the white corridors in shock and worry. Then he passed someone. They began to call his name.
"CODY!" the voice repeated. After the 5th time Cody stopped and turned around. Ken!
"Hey!" Cody ran back to the door which Ken was standing in. "What are you doing here? Are you ok?" Cody asked carefully. He was too used to seeing some of his friends unconscious. But Ken was awake and looked quite active. He had shorts on and a simple t-shirt on,
"Yeah, but… Matt isn't…" Ken averted his gazed to the figure lying in the bed in his room.
"What happened?" Cody asked, unable to control the tears that were forming in his eyes.
"I have no idea." Ken sighed. "I just found him in the streets. He's been attacked, by someone that definitely isn't a one but maybe a thing." Ken pondered the thought for a couple of seconds.
"Ok you've been watching way to many horror movies." Cody grimaced.
"Hey it's not my fault. They're always the cheapest." Ken grinned. Not sure if it was because of his joke or because he was just a bit silly at that moment.
Cody gave a weak smile. "But wait…" Cody walked into the room slowly. Matt had scales running all over his face.
"He's been having blood samples for the last few hours. No one knows what the hell it is…" Ken seemed almost defeated. He was so tired after running the ambulance people dragged him to hospital to ask questions. Ken had called Mr Ishida but he still hadn't arrived. Worst of all it was really late. That made Ken wonder. "What are you doing here anyway Cody?"
"Grandpa needs yoghurt." Cody said quite simply.
"At 11:45?" Ken asked again extremely confused.
"He's got a slight addiction. He'll get over it when the new range of prune juice comes out. But for now…"
"Ah." Ken choked a laugh but he still snorted slightly
Cody didn't react. "Hey you know Izzy and Sora are down the hall way." He pointed out.
"What?" Ken ran out the room immediately. Without waiting for Cody to tell him where. Cody ran as fast as his little legs could carry him. Ken was a lot more athletic than he was.
When he reached the room which Izzy and Ken were in Cody stopped. Ken was looking at Sora.
"What happened?" Ken whispered.
"It evidential that Sora is in a… coma and Izzy I have no idea." Cody turned to the cleverest boy he had ever met. Ever. And now he was lying there, pale and weak.
What was the matter with every one?
"Get a doctor." Ken instructed.
"Why?" Cody asked confusedly.
"He doesn't look good. And it could be worse than we expect." Ken pointed out. "No, I'll go. I'm a faster runner." Ken rethought his ideas and ran out the room. Cody was alone again. Well not exactly but it was quiet…
"Where now Kari?" Angewomon smiled. Flying was her favourite pass time but this was ridiculous. She felt she had been flying around the digiworld several times. But she was finally with Kari again.
"Mount Fujimoto?" Kari was shooting in the dark. But Mount Fujimoto seemed like an educated guess. Mount Fujimoto was the highest mountain in Japan… and it may be closer to heaven or something… Not sure. But may as well. Already been to several temples. Those who saw her were assured she was an angel. So it was kinda fun doing that…
"Hold on!" Angewomon grinned and swooped over the land gracefully. People below to far to see what they were but close enough to see a white spray stretch over the sky, much like an aeroplane.
The mountain got closer in Kari's vision. She would be landing soon. Hopefully this would be it…
Davis sat in the chair greedily. He had consumed every single morsel of food in the house. Yet he was still hungry. Everyone else was in bed. But he sat on the sofa. His eyes sore but wide awake. He needed more food. He was in desperate need of more food. He stood up quickly. Maybe he missed some out on his search before. So he walked in the kitchen as calmly as possible. Then groaned. There had to be something in here. Anything. A pretzel or even a scrap of bread. He looked in the cupboards banging the cupboards open and shut. Not acknowledging his other family members were asleep. Scouring every nook and cranny. He found a few crumbs but nothing worth eating. He gave a frustrated moan and turned around to see his sister.
"What are you doing?" Her voice was at controlled level since she was trying not to awaken the parents even more so. She was in her pyjamas as well. She was wearing her pink hearts jumped and some purple jogging pants. Her feet were bare.
"Looking for food!" Davis shrieked, "Have you got any? You've got have some. Come be nice to your little brother."
"Oh my god!" Jun held her breath. "You've gained weight." She pointed at her brother's enormous tummy. It looked like he was nearly pregnant but it was much worse. It was bulging out of his clothes in such an… ugly way… It reminded Jun of Homer Simpson but in a more realistic way.
"So!" Davis got a little defensive. "Just gimme food." He looked at her again. Jun took another step back. She saw Davis's red eyes. They weren't red, just so bloodshot. Davis couldn't take this anymore. He ran over to his sister and grabbed her shoulders harshly. "Give me food NOW!"
Jun's thoughts were racing. What should she do? She looked at her brother's firm face and saw the pain passing his eyes. Was it because he was hurting her or was it because he was so desperately hungry. Jun had to pick the latter.
"I've got some spare money… I'm sure somewhere will be open at this time…" She breathed in as Davis's grip loosened. "I'll got get it." She whispered. She ran into her room her eyes welling up. What the hell was wrong with her brother? He never normally bullied her to such an extent and especially not about anything as mundane as food. She scrambled up and with her about 3000 yen. She had a job at the market. That was the amount she had saved from it.
She walked into the living room and met eyes with her brother once again.
He glared at her and snatched the money. "I need more." He growled.
"That's all I have…" Jun whimpered.
"It'll have to do then." Davis sighed and walked out. He left Jun there. Standing in such a state. She just fell to the floor and wept.
Again reeally sorry for taking sooooo long. Forgive me:'-(
