Davis
searched the library high and dry. He couldn't seem to locate Ken.
Where could he possibly have gone...unless..he wasn't even IN the
library anymore...Davis stopped in his tracks, wondering wether or
not Ken would have left or not.
"Psst!" came a voice.
Davis turned to the magazine rack and found a little girl trying to
get his attention.
"Yeah?" asked Davis.
The little
blonde girl blushed shyly, then pointed a finger behind her towards
the corner of the room.
"There's a boy back there who told
me to get you! He looks sad. I think you might wanna cheer him up!"
Davis grinned as he looked up, ignoring the girl as he made his
way back to the corner of the room. He spotted Ken in the corner just
as the girl said he would be, leaning heavily against the row of
books, his head in his hands, his thin body shaking. Davis cocked a
head. He had been wearing a blue outfit, and now that Ken had his
head down, he looked like nothing but a giant blueberry.
Ken
could hear Davis' heavy footsteps even on the carpet, making him look
up, tears on his face. He saw Davis and imediatly jumped up, but
Davis pulled him back.
"Davis!" whined Ken.
"Ken!
Come on! Please! Don't do this to me!" cried Davis, pulling Ken
back into his arms. Ken struggled and wialed quietly in his amrs for
several moments, then stopped, letting in.
"I'm sorry"
mumbled Ken. "It's just-"
"You're afraid they would
take it like your father did" finished Davis knowingly. Ken
shrugged into Davis' chest.
"Basically" Ken admitted in
a mumbled voice.
"Ken..." Davis said in a whiny voice.
"Relax! They are not like him! They'll understand!"
"Yes,
but that doesn't mean I want them all to know!" argued Ken,
wiping away his tears and standing up straight to look Davis in the
face. Davis smiled at him sadly.
"Oh come on. I know they'll
be fine. They'll take it well" Davis encouraged. Ken reluctanlty
took Davis' hand, allowing the taller boy to lead Ken away from his
sancturary and over to where Yolei and the others were currently
huddled. They were whispering quietly to themselves, making glances
at the two boys coming closer to them.
Yolei panicked as she saw
them come close and told them to shush.
"Ken! Davis! Hi!"
squeaked Yolei, her hands behind her back. She took a few steps back
as Ken and Davis approached and stopped several feet away from
them.
Kari sighed and pushed Yolei to the side, walking up to the
two lovers. She smiled. "Congradulations you two." she
shook their hands. "I will admit I was surprised when I found
out but you two do much a cute couple."
Ken furrowed his
brow. "You talk as though you've known about us for a
while."
Kari blushed, looking down at her shoes. "Well,
I kind of did."
TK, Yolei, and Cody took an intake of breath
while Ken and Davs just stared at her in awe.
"Well it
wasn't too hard to figure it out. You two were always hip and hip,
and besides, I...saw you two kiss once. I knew then." She
lifted up the camera around her neck and looked into it. Davis
grabbed Ken and made a pose, smiling for the camera. Ken could only
have enough time to give a small smile and a blush before Kari took
the picture.
"Aw! So cute!" gushed Kari.
"So,
are you guys okay with this?" asked a nervous Ken, wringing his
hands together.
TK shrugged. "We don't have much choice but
to except do we?"
Davis nodded. "Yep! Pretty
much."
Yolei and Cody finally got used to the idea of them
being a couple, however, they still kept their distance for the rest
of the studying group. About an hour and a half later, everyone was
all done looking up their research for school, and as TK said, it was
now time to go to the digital world.
Sneaking into thier old
school was simple, and as they pulled out their digivices, they
prepared themselves for a day of fun.
"Ah! This is the
life isn't it Ken?" asked Davis as he strecthed out his arms
with a yawn. Ken saw is oppurtune moment and started tickling Davis
while his arms where in the arm, making Davis shout out for him to
stop.
They were currently walking around, minding their own
bussiness. The others had all seperated. Cody and Yolei went one way,
TK and Kari went another, while Davis and Ken walked aimlessly
through the digiworld woods, Wormmon and Veemon following them
happily.
The woods continued to get darker and darker and the
trees became thicker and thicker. Less sunshine was coming through as
Ken realized where they were.
"Davis. I think we should turn
back" he commented, concern etched on his face. Davis scoffed at
him.
"Nah, we're fi-"
Davis was interupted by Ken's
scream of panic.
"KEN!" cried a frantic Wormmon. Davis
looked over to see a large black eriee looking creature around Ken, a
thin fingered hand covering his mouth, it's other arm wrapped around
Ken's waist.
The creature cackled, glaring red eyes at Davis.
"Let him go!" he cried.
The creature was suddenly hit
by an attack. "V Laser!"
Still holding onto Ken, the
creature cackled one last time, and disapeared, taking Ken with him,
Ken's scream still lingering in the air. "DAVIS!" the
echo cried.
"KEN!" screamed Davis, falling to the
gorund where Ken once stood seconds before. XVeemon de-digivolved
into Veemon and bounced to Davis' side, who was crying. It had
happened all so quick! So unexpected!
Wormmon was in tears as
well, and as Davis composed himself minutes later, and scooped both
digimon into his arms, he vowed quietly, "I'll get that
creature...and get Ken back...if it's the last thing I
do..."
Everything was
dark...It was so cold...
Ken cracked his eyes open to see that he
was in what looked to be a prison cell. It was cold and dank, wet and
disgusting. He tried moving his arms, only to see that he was
attached to the wall, his feet and hands bound to the wall by metal
straps.
"So..."hissed a voice. "You awaken at
last... You're friends are only just arriving. They found our base
quicker than expected. But no matter, you are awake now..."
"What do you want? Who are you?" croaked Ken.
The
creature showed itself. It looked like nothing but a giant black mass
of goo. It was eriee and the light around it was sucked in by it's
blackness. It had no feet the Kren could see, but is had long fingers
and only red eyes for a face.
It lifted its hand, revealing a
bottle with a red liquid inside. Looking up at Ken it cackled.
Ken
tried to struggle as the creature tried sticking the contents of the
bottle down his throat, buit it was no use, the creature was too
strong. Ken had no choice but to swallow whatever it was was.
He
gagged. Dizziness controlled his line of thought. His stomach felt as
though it were doing summersaults.He groaned, he so desperately
wanted to curl up into a ball on the floor, but couldn't cause he was
chained to the wall. Tears welled up in his arms from an unknown pain
in his groin.
The black creature cackled happily. "Feeling
the pain aren't you...?" Ken winced, wishing he could be
anyehere else but there, and without the terrible pain. "What
have we done to you is something you're most wondering, I'm
sure..."
Ken somehow managed to nod between the pain. The
black creature cackled once more.
"Well, what was inside the
bottle was known as a fertility Potion. We digimon hardly use it. The
only time we do is after Great Wars when even Primary Village won;t
give us new baby digimon. We must make our own then and only
then."
Ken's eyes widened in panic. "F-Fertility
Potion? You mean - ?"
The black creature's red eyes flashed
dangerously. "The next human you see will be the father of your
baby.."
Ken's eyes were wide with fright, his mouth gaped
open. He couldn't believe his ears. It wasn't possible...was it?
Ken didn't have much time to think it all through, for the door
of the prison cell began to shudder as someone began pounding on it.
"It's jammed!" came TK's voice from outside. The black
creature turned to the door, yet spoke to Ken.
"Yes, that's
right. We willingly let your friends find us. That is precisely what
we wanted."
"S-So, you mean to tell me that -"
"The next person you see will be the father of your baby.
Those are cramps you are feeling, that of which a girl feels once a
month. Once you see the next person, you will become with
child..."
"W-With child...?" repeated Ken, his
eyes staring straight ahead of him at the filthy floor.
"Have
fun..." hissed the creature, and it disapeared. The prison room
got considerably lighter now that it had left and Ken could now see
the door. Someone was turning the handle.
"Ouch! Aw shit!"
Ken could hear Davis moan outside the door.
"What is it?"
asked TK's voice.
"Sprained my ankle. Go on! They said Ken
was in there! Go get him!" cried Davis urgently.
The door
knob started shaking again as TK tried to open it, then just as it
was about to open, Ken closed his eyes.
Davis...he was the
first person he had to see, at least then the baby will belong to
someone he loves...
Ken closed his eyes tightly as hung on the
wall, and could picture TK banging the door open as he did.
"KEN!"
shouted TK as he saw his friend. He then stopped when he noted that
his eyes were closed tightly, almost as though he were in pain.
"Get
Davis..." moaned Ken. TK regarded his friend sadly before going
off to do so.
Ken sighed as TK left. The pain was already
starting to go away...even though he hadn't even seen Davis yet,
just in his presence it helped the pain. TK dragged in a snarling
Davis who was holding onto his foot and ankle, cursing as he did, yet
stopped right after he saw Ken.
"KEN!" he cried,and
ignored the pain in his foot, he ran up to Ken and unchained him.
Ken slowly opened his eyes, looking staright into Davis'
chocolate ones. "Davis..." whispered Ken happily.
"Relax
love, I'm here..." soothed Davis, his anger about his ankle
vansihed. Within seconds, Davis had managed to get Ken free from the
chains and Ken immedialty fell into Davis' arms, enjoying the
embrace.
"Davis!" cried Ken, unable to keep back the
tears.
"Ken! Are you okay? They didn't hurt you did they?"
asked Davis franticly as he rubbed Ken's back.
Ken froze. "Well-
They uh..." Ken looked up into Davis' expecting face. "N-No
Davis...they didn't...They just scared me was all..." Ken then
rested his head on Davis' shoulder, guilt taking over him.
Davis
smiled at that responce and gently took Ken around the waist and
followed TK out the door, moaning in pain from his ankle as he went.
