/ Description of scene.
Last Time:
I sat down on the porch and stared off into space when it suddenly began to snow and I stood up and stared at the snow flakes. There were seven other kids outside staring at the snow when eight little lights could be seen in the sky heading toward us. When it landed in front of each of us, I let out a gasp which of course no one else heard. The object seemed so familiar to me. I picked it up and looked at it then looked at the others. Then all went blank.
Chapter Two: Finding Ones Self Again . . .
Ryu's POV
I stood at a distance from my cousin. I watched her as she stared off into space. She knew not that I was nearby nor the concern I held deep within me. After the incident she was never the same. She never looked at me with the same happiness and she never showed her anger. She bottled it up and soon all the emotions she buried will explode and she will lose it and she may never heal from the years of torture. So I will continue my quest to reach the Kaiya that was buried. Even if it means that I die for her. She has done so much for me and my brother and sister that I have to repay her somehow. I hope I won't be too late.
Eight little lights came crashing to the ground near Kaiya and the others. I saw a look of recognition cross Kaiya's face and then a lone light came soaring down and landed in front of me. Even though I was far from the others, I could still hear their screams of terror as they were transported to another world. Kaiya, the last to leave, looked up and saw me before she too disappeared and then a minute later I was spinning out of control until I landed on a hard rock.
I am home.
Kaiya's POV
The world around me faded into darkness and for one second I saw a beast standing in front of me ready to devour me. I then closed my eyes and I began to spin out of control. All was silent as I spun faster and faster until I felt sick to my stomach and then the ride was over and I landed on my back on something hard. I kept my eyes closed for two reasons; one because I still felt sick to my stomach and number two because I was afraid of what I might see. The silence was starting to freak me out because there were others who came with me to wherever I am. I must have landed far away from them. Otherwise, I would hear the little kid crying or whatever.
I lay there quietly contemplating if I should open my eyes. Finally I came to a decision that whatever was out there was either dangerous or safe and if it was dangerous then it wouldn't do me any good to keep my eyes closed. I opened my ice blue eyes and took in the scene before me. I was shocked to say the least. Trees that were greener then average green stood proud and tall. Flowers that are as big as a mini van were scattered all over the place. But nothing topped what stood in front of me. Before me was an animal that looked to be a dog. It was small and a silverish color with a diamond on its forehead. It looked so familiar to me but I couldn't place where I had seen it before.
"Hello my name is Diamondsalmon and I am your Digimon!" She said almost sadly.
"My name is Kaiya. A pleasure to meet you." I said with a gentle smile and then I realized I spoke and quickly covered my mouth in astonishment.
After all I hadn't spoken since . . . since my parent's died. I sat up and pulled my legs in so I could rest my chin on them as I studied the creature in front of me.
"I don't think I have ever seen a species like you before. What species are you?" My voice shook with excitement.
"I told you I'm a Digimon!" She snapped but not anger but in sadness.
"I'm sorry." I said as I looked down.
"I'm sorry too. I'm just worried is all. I have been waiting for you for such a long time."
Flashback: "Hi I'm Diamondsalmon and I have been waiting for you for such a long time and now you're here!" End Flashback
"I know you don't I?" I asked a bit alarmed.
"Your memory must be returning!"
"Excuse me?" I asked still shocked.
She never got to answer because then I fainted and I got a headache as well. My headache grew worse and then I could tell I entered into the back of my mind which has been in a fog for some many years. Memories of another life started to flash before my closed eyes. A young girl of about seven years of age was standing in the middle of a forest with Dia. The girl was wearing a dark purple jumper and sneakers. Her long ebony black hair was braided down her back. She stared at a device in her hands then at the animal in front of her.
A large beetle type digimon appeared and stood behind her. The girl turned around and smiled at her new friend. The girl seemed so happy. 'Why can't I be happy?' I asked myself. Then it all returned to me at once. That girl was I a long time ago. As it all came back, I began to cry in my head. That day I had to leave Dia and go back to the real world where something even worse then leaving new friends awaited me. My parents were eating at a nice café for lunch so I had been at a friend's house when I was taken.
No one knew I had been gone for a year in the digital world. Back then I didn't know how it had come to pass that I remained the same age but oh well. At the café everyone was taken hostage by a couple of men in black. My parents had formed a plan to get everyone out but in the process they were shot and they both died in the hospital. I had been there when they died so I vowed to never speak again nor make a sound when I was crying or hurt. I promised myself I would never feel emotion again.
I was supposed to live with my favorite aunt. Aunt Rose was single and could barely support herself though she really wanted me. She promised that when she was stable she would take me in. I understood and wrote her a letter. Later I was forced to live with my mean aunt Katie. I remember the first night when I first arrived, she had yelled at me and had hit me.
I woke up with a huge head ache sometime later after all my memories returned. In the trauma of losing my parents I forced my memories to go to the back of my mind where a fog had grown and I couldn't remember ever going to the digital world until now. Aunt Katie didn't help much at all.
I looked at Dia with tears in my eyes and grabbed her and hugged her till she turned blue. When I released her, I smiled and then it faded to as I stood up shakily. My mask slide back into place and me just listened to the different sounds as the digimon in me came back out.
"Why was I brought back here my friend?" I asked quietly.
"A new evil is lurking here in the Digital World. It was just time that you are brought back." Dia said with a real smile on her face.
"I see . . . Is there anything else you can tell me about this evil?" I asked.
"Digimon are turning evil every day now. The enemy is growing stronger. We brought you and the Digi-destined here to defeat it and for you to take your rightful place." My old friend said.
"I missed you Dia. Even if I didn't remember because I blocked everything I still knew that I was missing someone other then my parents." I closed my eyes again and listened and heard yelling somewhere north from where we stood now even though it sounded muffled because of the distance.
"You found them? You could have asked you know."
"I'm a bit rusty and I think my hearing has worsened because of the human world with all their loud machines and such." I said as I picked up Dia.
She looked up at me and tilted her head to the side as though trying to figure something out.
"I don't think it's your hearing Kaiya. I think it's because they are really far away." Dia listened intently.
I opened my eyes and gave her a small smile. Diamondsalamon Dia for short is in her in-training form so she is small. She can get bigger by changing into Diamondgatomon. Both forms are like Salamon's and Gatomon's forms though she was a different kind of them. In fact she is the only of her kind. She had diamonds on her forehead, wrists, ankles, and chest. Each of her different forms has diamond in front of it so I just call her Dia.
"Listen, I'm not the same person you once knew Dia. I am totally different then the last time you saw me. When I got back to the human world, I still had heightened senses. That is before I lost my memory because of grief. I heard my mother crying from miles away. I heard bullets flying through the air. I smelled the fear and blood. I ran to the café after explaining to my friend, whose house I was playing at, that I saw on the t.v. the place where my parents were eating at for lunch and that there was a shot out or something. I ran there just in time to see the Paramedics bring my parents out on stretchers. They died a month later and that was the last time I spoke. I still sung because I knew my mother would kill me if she knew I gave that up." I cried as we walked.
"I'm sorry . . . " Dia whispered.
"It's okay. I've made progress. I have finally talked about my parent's death. After they died, I was supposed to live with my aunt Rose but she couldn't take me in because she didn't have the money to support more then one person. So I lived with my abusive aunt Katie." I continued sadly.
"I will not be speaking in front of them. I need you to talk for me."
"I will Kaiya anything for you."
By this time we could hear the other kids up ahead. I smiled lightly as they talked to the Digimon. I followed the voices until we stumbled upon a small clearing. My smile vanished almost immediately.
"This thing. This thing. It won't leave me alone!" Shouted Joe, and I smiled again.
I walked right up behind them all and only Joe could see me from his position but he was looking at the ground trying to catch his breath. I touched the blonde's shoulder and he turned and looked at me with cold eyes. I glanced down at Dia for a moment before meeting the blonde's eye again. This time he saw a deep sorrow.
"Yes?" He said harshly.
I frowned slightly before withdrawing into myself more then it had been about a minute ago. My eyes were no longer sad but empty. I turned away from the group getting ready to leave. Still, no one noticed my presence except one who noticed I had arrived and he saw the sadness behind the emptiness and that was Ryu. He frowned and was about to come over to me but I shook my head and he stayed where he was. I turned to leave again with my eyes filling with silent tears and a hard expression when someone grabbed my arm. I turned and saw it was blonde again.
"I'm sorry." He said softly so no one would hear.
I offered a small smile and turned back to the group. My eyes narrowed when I heard a familiar sound. My eyes widened and I put Dia down and started to climb a tree. She looked at me curiously then she too heard the sound. I scanned the area and saw Tai in another tree not too far away and so far he didn't notice I was up here and then I spotted him . . .
