Distant Touch
Part Two
Chapter Two
by MZ-Networx
Yay, people actually like this! Anyway, I kinda got de-routed, got myself a job, was busy with my school finals, which left me to no time whatsoever to write this. However, I put aside a few minutes, and will try to come up with something ;
-----------------------------
The breeze was soft, and flurring through my window, touching my skin like only soft feathers would. I slid out of my bed, and walked slowly to said window, my bare feet making no sound on the wooden floor. The moon was shining, as bright as only a mirror to the sun could be, and I slithered out of the window, walking softly towards the moon. I found myself on a sandy beach, but was too taken by the moon to wonder. Nothing stopped me, not even the sea, and thus I soon found myself wading through the waters, trying to swim, and to keep up.
I had to reach it.
It was my purpose, my only purpose... I raised my hand, and the moon drew closer, and I could almost reach it, however, fate plays nasty tricks, and I found myself being swallowed by the sea, unable to move and unable to reach out.
'Help!'
And then, the moon grew smaller, and it duplicated... a stream of stars passed in between, and all this took the shape of something rather unusual... goggles. My mind started to race, and my heart started to beat rather hard, but I could not worry about that. Struggling against the sea, I could barely keep on watching the scene that unfolded before me, as what once was the moon started to take the shape of him... but who was he? What was the moon trying to convey? What was I...
'Is she alive?'
'Barely.'
'So.. how did you find her again?'
'We heard an agonizing scream.. why would she do this to herself?'
'Drugs?'
'Who knows.. maybe it was-'
'You! Stop talking! Your priority is to cure her, not gossip over her!'
Voices... the moon grew brighter, and stopped changing shapes; it grew so bright, an illuminating white, overtaking my whole sight...
Light.
As my eyes started to focus, I realized I was in a hospital room, with doctors pondering over me, and my wrist was quite painful, not to mention all the gurglings in my stomach. As I started to come to, I realized that I was here, alive, but full of pipes and machinery. I wanted to talk; to ask indications, but no words came out of my mouth. I tried again, and again, but to no avail – I could not talk. I tried raising my left arm, to do something as a sign of life, but I couldn't.
I was paralyzed.
Only my eyes and ears seemed to be working, and I knew they were not enough for me to live. But it wasn't only my organs that were feeling out of place, there was something else, but I could not put my finger on it.
What was the moon trying to show me?
Could it be...?
Suddenly, a black tunnel appeared in all the confusion; one which only I was able to see. Out of it came a deafening roar, and a Black Trailmon came out of it, letting out howls of agony. As it approached me, I felt that I was being tied down somewhere, that I needed release, that I had to get out..
'Are you willing to do this?'
I glanced at the Trailmon, willing myself to speak, to ask what was going on. He seemed to understand.
'Lady Ophanimon sent me.'
I froze. Will I die?
'I can take what's left of you into the Digital World..'
To protect it?
'No.'
Why?
'Because the Lady has sensed darkness in your heart. It is time you came back.'
For what?
By this time, I found myself sitting inside the Trailmon, with no pipes attached to me, and no nothing. I was normal, and as I stood up and glanced out of the window, I saw myself, in the hospital bed, full of pipes and doctors surrounded me, looking panicked. I was dead.
'Trailmon, what's going on?'
A voice rumbled through the carriages, one which I could only assume belonged to Trailmon.
'You are returning. Do you remember?'
'Do I remember what?'
'Him.'
And suddenly, it flowed back, like ashes bursting once more into flames.
'Am I returning to him?'
'Yes.'
And suddenly, the voice stopped, and the Trailmon plundered on silently towards the Digital World, silent, but full of my thoughts. I was returning..
..Takuya!
