CH.1:DANGEROUS AFFAIRS
"As if i never saw the fork in the road..."
"Was it good enough reason?"
Friday, June 25th
"Forbidden,forbidden,forbidden..." The words kept replaying over again in my head.
"Forbidden,fo-stop!"But my mind resisted my own interfering.
"So what's the following of God and serving him?..Daisuke?" Tai's voice boomed around the small classroom as I looked up."Forbidden," I practically yelled. As the classroom went silent,one boy snickered
"Haha..stupid doser!"Tai just stared at me,dumbfounded.
"Er...I mean to not follow the act is forbidden...to follow it is required!" I corrected myself quickly.
"Okaaay...class dismissed."All the students left,almost running outside to the warmth and light of the sun.
"Daisuke..."
I was pulling my bag onto my shoulder,asI turned around and Tai rested a hand on my other shoulder."What was that back there?"
"Um...i just got confused with my own thoughts,sorry" I tried to plaster on a smile.
"No,don't be sorry...i know this transition is hard for you,but i promise along with God and myself we can get you back on the right track." "...sure..." He smiled at me,as I returned a weak one,heading out the door smirking to myself. "Tsk...right track..." Although everyone believed Taichi invited me to the class for my own good,I for one know the teachers persuaded him to bring me..to try and make me break my dose. Well that wasn't going to happen any time soon.
"Daisuke!" I turned around dully to see Tai running after me. "I think I'll head home with you,after homework we can practice for our soccer game if thats alright with you..?" "Whatever you want" I exclaimed. What a day this was turning out to be. Teacher,my ass..At heart,Tai longed to play the part of a kid again..which was where he belonged.
--
We sat our bags down on the kitchen table as Tai sat,I continued down the hallway to my room "Be right back Taichi!" I yelled to him almost running. I slowed my pace to a walk into my room,The blinds were shut tightly closed and it was exceptionally dark in my room, i closed the door...or did I? My hands were in my pockets,and in less than 5 seconds i was being swept off my feet and thrown onto my bed. I could feel very wet lips press against mine harsh fully,Then,it just all stopped before my eyes. "What took you so long!" "Taichi Walks slowly.." I smirked and kissed her on the cheek. Who's this you ask?well..i have to tell you, just be patient.
Rewind:Wrong Place, Wrong time
Friday,June 13th-
There was practically no sun in the sky,as this day seemed to be so dark,like night instead,..I walked around the scene endlessly, why was i back in this place anyway?
"Ken!" -This awoke me out of my drowsy state.
I looked over to the right and there she was,a girl stepping out of the bushes,who spotted me also. Slender pupils hazed with a golden tint seemed to shoot through my own,that traveled curiously down her body to reveal an odd attire. A black corset,outlined in crimson clung to her top half. A multi-colored,layered silk skirt fell past her ankles,dragging on the floor. A pointed collar cape hung open in the front,her pale face framed by jet black hair that concealed one eye,all the way down to her waist. To put it simply she looked like she could be Dracula's wife. I stared,helplessly.
"Oh...You must be Ken with a smile like that." Her voice spoke to me mesmorizingly ,it sent a sharp pain through my body. Yet I just kept looking at her dully,she continued to move closer. She wrapped her fragile arms around my neck loosely and pinned me against a tree i stood in front of ,as i swallowed my courage. I started to beg for her not to eat me,and that i was only visiting the Scene,but no words came from within. Shaking my head quickly i threw her off of me.
"I'm not Ken!"
Those eyes glared.
"Sorry i didn't tell you sooner...i was just kinda...distracted--" "Don't blame your stupidity on me,baka."
I looked down at the ground and frowned some. As confused as i was, she wasn't helping. I started to turn away,as She grabbed my wrist. "But you're pretty cute for a baka.." I looked back at her,and smiled.
"If it helps,i think i know the Ken you're looking for." "Oh well forget him,i want to get to know you"
...don't talk to strangers,don't talk to strangers...
I tried to tell myself,and failed horribly. As far as i was concerned,she wasn't a stranger..she knew Ken, i knew Ken...that was good enough reason right?
Friday,June 25th
"That's not good enough reason to move her in with you!"
"I knew you'd say that. You wanted to know how we met and i told you."
"So..."
"Ive gotta log off..I've got tons of homework. Talk to you later?" The tiny blue digimon sighed. He was in his weakest state,desperately,defenseless.
"..I guess so. bye?" "Yeah.." with a flash of light through my laptop,the portal to the scene was closed,enough for me. I sighed deeply,hearing a toilet flush in the background as Taichi returned to the kitchen. I started doing my homework,atl east trying to to concentrate.
"Well,well,well..What's this?" I looked over at Tai ,who was holding a plastic container with some red liquid in it."Looks rotten..,ill do you a favor and ..get rid of it."
"No! its nothing!" I jumped up quickly , and snatched it away from him. He kept his hand firm around the container glaring at me for a moment,then released it. I used my free hand to take out a plate of left over rice,and shove it towards him "Here Eat this."
I got out of that kitchen quickly,stroking the plastic container with my hand "almost lost you.."I snickered,as i walked down the hall.
I now stood in the middle of my room reaching my hand out. "Here..Take it"
"Thanks," She smiled taking the container and opening the lid. Out from my bed appeared a silhouette of a young woman."You almost got me into deep shit, Kyoko" "No i didn't.." I watched her drink some of the continents, then look up at me "You're the one who said oh it'll be fine in the fridge,no one will look there. remember?mmm...this tastes really good,you been working out?drinking more water?what?"
I grinned as we both laughed for a meer second from her little joke about my good tasting blood. I took the container out of her hand setting it on the table next to my bed,"Never thought id be renting my room out to fucking vampire." "Always expect the unexpected,"She smiled.
"Ive got to go keep an eye on Tai." I said more to myself,than to her.Not really expecting an answer.
"..He sounds like a weird kid,isn't he like 4 years older than you?"
I stared at her dully,standing in the center of the room."...so are you."-And with thatI walked out.
Sitting across from Tai,i opened up my laptop."Urgent message from:Konor" bounced around the screen. "Ugh..as soon as i get settled..what should I..argh." i scratched my head.
"Well you know what they say..,"Tai began. "Always expect the unexpected.." I stopped typing and stared up at him. Didn't kyoko just..?Ah,forget it. I'm probably just loosing my mind. "Um..yeah,"I sighed. The next few hours seemed like days...The moment Taichi left it felt like 1 million lbs of stress was lifted off my shoulders. Little did i know,twice as much was about to be re-added.
