DigiBall Z Chapter 3
Tai and TK faced each other while Goku and Kari stood back waiting for Tai to burst out saying TK was endangering Kari's life by letting her hang around some guy they didn't know. However the outburst never came and Tai just kept looking from TK to Goku.
An hour later the group was sitting under a tree at the edge of the school football field while Goku tried to look as small as possible to avoid attention from the kids playing on the field. Just then TK spoke, "Goku-Sensei? Would you be able to find some way for me to get a Time Chamber like I was taught by your friends?"
Goku thought for a moment, "I could do better, in my world, the Time chamber only works for someone twice, after that you can't go back in. I can make you one with no limit and will let you train for over a year as well." Goku grinned as TK's face lit up with joy at the very thought of a chamber like that.
An hour later the four of them stepped into the new Time Chamber. Tai and Kari looked amazed at all the space then gasped as the saw the white emptiness that surrounded the small entrance. Tai smiled and stepped onto the white space. KERPLUNK! Everyone laughed as Tai face planted onto the ground. TK and Goku just smiled and stepped out to join him, "Watch that first step it's real doozy." Goku laughed then took to the air.
Goku looked at his friend and smiled, TK had gotten stronger, that was good but this world would not be safe forever, trouble was coming and Goku would be powerless to stop it. "TK we need to talk." TK looked up from where he stood and nodded then effortlessly lifted off the ground and joined him. "TK I need to talk to you about your powers, you are strong, stronger than many warriors that I know, this is good but you are not strong enough yet for what will come. I want you to spend a week training in here with me, while we are here you are going to grow more powerful than you could ever imagine, but you will learn secrets that will be heavier than anything you've ever imagined." TK took all this in and nodded, "Yes sensei." It was decided.
Davis and Kari stood outside the Time Chamber door, TK and Goku had been training a week and since then Kari and Tai had told everyone about Goku and TK's connection. Since then everyone had tried to gain entrance into the Chamber but the door remained locked. Until today. Today was the day that TK would be emerging more powerful than anyone could imagine but also carrying burdens equal to the power he would have access to.
TK stood behind the door, dressed in a duplicate of Goku's gi. They had decided to not wear the Saiyin battle armor but instead cloth as injuries would not be dampened. TK looked at the door and ignored Goku's panted breaths coming from behind him, TK had just finished his training and Goku was exhausted from the effort TK had put in but even this did not make TK smile for Goku was right, he was now stronger but he also carried equally heavy burdens as Guardian of the Earth.
Kari gasped as the door to the Time Chamber opened and TK stepped out. He looked magnificent. His presence radiated power, he dwarfed Goku with his power and yet his eyes were darkened, his shoulders sagged as though a great weight rested on them, he stood as if he was supporting the entire planet on his own, as if the earth existed through his sheer force of will alone. He looked terrible.
TK's eyes found Kari and his stern gaze softened for a half a second before he remembered the weight he now had to carry, he was the earth's Guardian, he had to remain strong to protect the earth from any invaders.
Kari's eyes welled with tears as his face darkened and he turned his eyes down, she was no longer good enough for someone as good as him.
Goku looked between the two and sighed, both were feeling the effects of TK's new power, he would have to do something. Goku stepped forward and whispered to Kari, "He needs light, he gave up the crest of Hope and passed it powers to you until he can carry them again. You must be his Light and his Hope; you must protect him from himself. Right now he is his own worst enemy, you must help him deal with his new burdens. Kari he loves you more than anything else in life, never forget that."
TK stood atop the newly constructed Lookout of Earth. Beside him stood Goku on one side and Kari on the other. Behind them the remaining Digidestined gathered marveling at the beautiful views it provided. TK looked down and sighed, this was his home now, and here was where he would stay unless earth or digiworld needed him. Goku seemed to be able to read his thoughts and said, "This is just somewhere to bring you're loved ones in times of trouble, you don't have to stay here if you don't want to." TK looked at Goku and smiled, "Thank you."
TK smirked at the Floramon massed before him, they had been in Digiworld four minutes and already they were under attack. " Everyone fall back, I'll finish them off!" TK called out. Everyone and their digimon began to retreat while TK powered up, "Kah! May! Hah! May! HAAAAAAAAH!" TK watched amazed as the Kahmayhahmayha Wave decimated the remaining forces before him.
Kari watched amazed as TK destroyed the Floramon before him without any apparent effort. He really is getting stronger. Kari was amazed that TK could do so much damage with a single blast, throughout the battle she had seen him using hand to hand against multiple opponents but seeing the sheer destructive force he harbored within was something totally different. Kari line was distracted as TK stalked out of the dust covered in several small abrasions and cuts, "Don't worry, the ones that survived ran off, we shouldn't have to worry about them any more." Kari watched as the entire Digidestined team nodded and let their digimon partners De-Digivolve.
TK stood just outside the firelight of their camp. They were still in the Digiworld and would remain for several more days as they made sure that everything was in order. TK jumped as a small, gloved hand crept into his. Smiling TK looked down at Kari, while he didn't age in the Time Chamber, spending seven years in there did result in a growth spurt, TK was now the tallest of the Digidestined and unanimous vote, the leader. "TK what's wrong? You haven't spoken a word since the battle this afternoon." TK sighed, "I'm fine Kari, I'm just a little upset from having to force Patamon to stay behind, since he can't digivolve past Angemon anymore, he's vulnerable since all the opponents we face are ultimate and mega's as the moment." Kari nodded, "Come back to the fire TK, I miss having you around to snuggle up to as it gets later." TK chuckled and let her lead him back into the circle.
AN, well, didn't think it would happen but it did, TK is now the Guardian of the Earth. I still need more ideas.

Should TK be able to reach SS4, or just SS3? Your answer is much needed for further development of this story.
