I don't own Digimon or Pokemon. By the way, this is the last chappie everybody!

Read and review!

Chapter 10: Closing events

"May, can I talk to you please?" Matt said.

"Sure, Matt, what is it?" asked May cheerfully.

"I…" Matt ran his hand through his hair. Sheesh, how was he meant to tell her that he couldn't return her feelings for him?

Mimi peeked into the room. (Remember how some of them got sent back to the Digital World?) She saw May with Matt and her heart just hurt. She hid again, behind the wall and out of sight. Why… is this happening?

"Matt?" May wondered what was up.

"I… I'm sorry, May. I-I… I don't feel the same way you do, okay? I'm sorry!" Matt jumped up onto his feet and ran out of the room.

May gazed after him. How… why was it that… Matt… her first love…

She slumped down onto the floor. It's that girl, Mimi, isn't it? I knew… I could never measure up with any other girl around here because…

"…no-one could love… someone like me…" May said to herself softly.

"…May?"

"Huh?"

Drew stared at the bandana-wearing girl. Crouching down so that their faces were closer, he asked, "Why would you say such a thing?"

"Wha-? I didn't say anything!" May squeaked.

"…well, whether you said it or not, it's not true because… I love you, okay?" Drew said bravely.

"You do?" May exclaimed.

Drew blushed slightly. "Yeah…"

They stared at each other.

Even May looked a bit shy. "You… really mean it, don't you?"

"Uh huh,"

May blushed and said softly, "Thankyou Drew," and she kissed him.

Matt raced out of the room. Why… was this all so confusing? I mean… girls all over Japan were in love with him but… this girl traveled worlds to see him… (I think Matt has a guilt complex) Matt groaned. Why is this happening to me?

His eyes widened and his heart beat faster when he saw her.

"Matt? Why are you…?" Mimi wondered.

"…Mimi." Matt managed to gasp out.

"Huh?"

"Mimi..." Matt collapsed onto the floor. Mimi bent down to look at him, worried for him.

"When did you come back?" Matt asked. "I thought you guys were in the Pokemon World."

"…We were, but then Izzy sent us back,"

"I'm glad."

Mimi frowned, "Matt, you don't look so good, are you okay?"

Matt smiled, "I'm fine. I'm just happy that you're back, Mimi."

He reached out and pulled her towards him, hugging her close.

"Where are Tai and the others?" Ash asked.

"I don't know!" Davis cried, "Don't ask me!"

"Chime Chime Chime… mecho Chime!"

"Huh?" Misty saw the floating pokemon. "Isn't that James' Chimecho?"

"Yeah, it is." Ash said. "What's it doing here?"

"Chime chime CHIME!"

"Pika Pi!" It's saying something, so shut up and listen!

"…It said that the Wizard went to the other world," Patamon said, twitching its winged ears.

"We better go then," Kari said, "I tell Tai through my digivice."

Just then, out of the blue, beams shot up from the ground and they all disappeared in a flash of light.

"What on earth happened?" Yolie freaked out.

"Don't worry," said Max gently, "You'll be fine."

"Thanks Max." she blinked. "Wait, MAX! You're here! I thought you were Tai and Sora!!"

"I sent you guys here," said the cool voice.

The Magician watched every single one of the Digidestined and the Pokemon people. Finally, everyone was together again.

"…We need to find the Wizard. He's still out there somewhere." The Magician said, "He's in the Digital World right now so we have to stop him from doing something stupid."

"…" Tai considered this. "It seems that… you act like Satoshi's keeper or something, why's that? And why is the Wizard so determined to grant everyone's wishes? Even if it's something as dumb as turning the world upside down?"

The Magician looked melancholy. "Satoshi isn't a light-hearted fool-hardy random guy who grants wishes… he has his own reasons. Because once upon a time, he… was in love with a girl. And he tried, over and over again to tell her his feelings but he never managed to tell her. But the two of them were the best of friends… they shared secrets and dreams and everything… The girl, she… she had a dream, a wish… she wanted to fly."

"Fly?" Davis asked incredously.

"Yes, don't laugh." The Magician glared at the impudent young leader of the second Digidestined. "Because out there, there's a much bigger world… a world where us, Clerics, Mages, Magicians, Wizards… there were a sacred group of people called the Winged People, and these people were born with wings, giving them the ability to fly. So flying was a normal thing for us."

"…how come she couldn't fly?" Tai asked.

"Because even though she was a Winged Person, she was born with torn wings so then she was treated as 'damaged equipment', though this didn't stop the Wizard from loving her. And he knew he could grant her wish because he loved her so much but he never did because we all knew that wish-granting was forbidden."

"Why would it be forbidden?" Ash cried, "That's stupid! If that girl really wanted to fly, then he should've made her fly!"
Akiyoshi smiled sadly, "Maybe he should've. But he didn't. Because all us Magicians were taught strictly that wishes were never to be granted, for fear that evil people might misuse this… Satoshi tried to fulfill his own wish though, but he gave up and never got to tell her his feelings. That girl had always been weak… she was 'damaged' and frail. And then she died."

There was a sad silence.

"So… Satoshi punished himself for never granting her wish. He… broke away from the organization of the Magi and went his own way. All the other magicians forgot about him, treated him as an outcast, but I didn't. I kept with him because we were best friends. He never forgot about that girl and how he never granted that wish and he was so sad I had to take his mind of it so I suggested that we create out own world, where everyone could be happy."

"And that was the Poke-Digi world, right?" said Izzy.

"That's right. And you all know about how the world got too crowded so we divided it into two separate places? So both of us looked after our own world, keeping everything in peace."

"So why did Satoshi start going around granting wishes?" Yolie asked, genuinely confused.

"Because when he found out all the wishes everyone had, he suddenly hated himself for not granting that girl's wish so he went amok, granting all those wishes, regardless of what they were… and I guess that is exactly what lead us to this situation right now."

He never granted that girl's wish… Tai thought, but he never granted his own one either. He should've told her how he felt. He stole a glance at Sora. And I should've told Sora how I feel many, many years ago.

He stared at his clenched hands. I'm just not brave enough… I-

"WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?" Ash yelled, "We have to go find him! We can tell him that we can grant our own wishes… if we really try hard enough!"

The Magician suddenly cried out and buckled down onto his knees.

"Mr Akiyoshi, what's wrong?" Mimi asked.

The Magician smiled weakly. "I've been using too much magic in one go, so I'm feeling really weak."

"Ah… Do you have enough magic to send me to where the Wizard is?" Tai spoke up.

"Huh?" Sora looked over at him. What is he up to?

I know… I have to grant my own wishes… and I'm going to but… I also really want to find Satoshi! "Please send me to the Wizard!" Tai cried. "I… I have wishes of my own I can grant by myself so… I can persuade him that everyone else has the ability to do that too!"

"…" Ash paused, "Send me too! I'm… not gonna let Tai get all the action!" he winked at Tai.

"…Can you… send me too?" Misty asked. She took a brave step ahead and grabbed Ash's hand.

Tai grinned at Ash so hard his cheeks hurt. I knew… that Ash and Misty were so well suited to each other.

The Magician looked so weary and tired but he heaved himself up. "Yes. I will send you guys to the Wizard… Take care."

A huge flash lit up and the three of them were caught in it. Just before they disappeared, Sora ran into it and threw her arms around Tai. "P-Please send me too! I… I want to be with Tai! Always!"

"ARGHHHHH!!" James screamed like a girl as he fell back down to earth. "Why do we always have to blasted away?"

"WAAHHH!!" Meowth cried, "Why is it that this blast hurts so much more than the others?"

The Wizard Satoshi stood alone on the mountain-top overlooking the empty plains of the Digital World. He could see all the digimon in the distance.

"It has… been so long since I saw this world." he said to himself.

He stared at his hands. I use my bare hands to grant people's wishes but… no matter how many I grant they're never happy… I don't understand… why does this happen?

"Satoshi!!"

"What?" The Wizard turned around to see Ash running towards him, full speed.

"Who are you?" Satoshi asked. "Why are you here?"

"Please, Satoshi, stop granting everyone's wishes… because some wishes have to be granted by themselves!" Tai cried.

The Wizard glared at Tai. "How would you know? It's not like you've been able to tell Sora the truth!"

Sora's eyes widened. Me?

Tai didn't look at her.

"…but those things are hard to say!" Ash defended his poofy-haired friend.

Tai looked at Ash. You know… maybe there's someone he loves just like I love Sora…

"…What else am I supposed to do? Just because I have a guilt complex, I… I feel responsible for her… the only thing I can do to make me feel better is grant people's wishes."

Tai and Ash were silent. Misty spoke up. "…Mister Satoshi… maybe it'd be better of we all worked hard to grant our own wishes… maybe the reason why people are never happy even after their wishes are granted, is because they'd rather grant their own wishes…"

Satoshi was riding the waves of his emotions. "…You're saying that everyone doesn't need me. Even though I tried my best to make them happy?!?"

"No! That's not what I meant!" Misty cried.

"I-I've heard enough!" The Wizard yelled. "You can all… just leave me alone!"

He didn't face them but pointed at them with his hand and a huge blast of magic headed straight for them.

"Ah! Misty!" Ash cried. He tried his best to protect her but ended up getting battered.

"So… I'm not needed here, so maybe all along no-one wanted me… I just do nothing but cause trouble-" he got broken off when Tai ran up to him and grabbed his arm.

"That's not true, Satoshi!" he cried.

"Tai!" Sora shouted.

"Tai, he's dangerous!" Ash yelled.

"That's right. I am!" screamed the Wizard. "So you let go RIGHT NOW!!"

Another huge flare of blue magic exploded from the Wizard and Tai couldn't hold on, he let go, he felt like his hand was falling off.

It… really hurts. It does! Tai winced with pain.

"Satoshi, calm down."

The Wizard glowered angrily at the Magician. "…Akiyoshi…"

"Just calm down now. You know that when mages like us get angry then there's a chance the whole world might blow up or something."

"Huh?" Ash looked scared now.

"You shut up, Akiyoshi!" Satoshi shouted. "It's not like you know anything! You're always just standing there all cool and stuff… you think we're best friends but… you don't understand me at all!"

"…Satoshi!" The Magician looked worried now.

"Shut up!" The Wizard fired a blast of fire towards the other mage.

Akiyoshi defended himself but couldn't help attacking him back.

Sora could feel the earth beneath her feet shake. Whenever mages get angry or uncontrollable… it's dangerous for everyone else…

"P-PLEASE STOP FIGHTING!" She cried. "Don't fight! It won't help!"

"You just shut up!" Satoshi exclaimed. Then the ground beneath Sora cracked in half and she felt herself falling.

"AARGHHHH!!!" she screamed.

"Sora!" Tai barreled towards her, drew her near him and held her close. "…stop doing reckless things like that."

The mages' fight got heavier and angrier. It felt as though the whole world was hurting and suffering because all the magic was breaking the world.

"Satoshi… don't be angry anymore," Ash said slowly. "Because when you're angry, it really doesn't help."

Satoshi scowled. "Speaking of help, none of you even appreciated the wishes I granted. You told me loud and clear that you should grant your own wishes, if you want me to stop then stop me yourself!!"

"… but I appreciate what you did, Satoshi," said a soft clear voice. Misty stood strong. "I told you that I wanted to see Ash because I loved him and you took me to him… so please… don't blame yourself for all the hurt everyone might be feeling!"

She… loves me? Ash stared at the orange-haired girl. She looked back at him and smiled shyly. Ash grinned back, so hard that the edges of his mouth hurt.

Misty's outburst quietened the Wizard. Satoshi floated back down to the ground and watched them from under his huge floppy brim of his hat. "You really… mean it?"

Misty smiled. "Thankyou very much for what you did,"

Just then the whole world just lit up with light.

"Wh-what just happened?" Tai asked.

Akiyoshi said, "…it finally happened… he's been healed. Satoshi isn't tormented by his ungranted wish any longer because someone thanked him for what he did."

Just then the Digital World started shaking really hard, about to destruct. And a viewing spell came out of nowhere so that Tai, Ash, Sora and Misty could see all the others back in Odaiba.

"Tai! What's going on?" Izzy yelled.

"Akiyoshi? Tell us why this is happening!" Yolie screamed.

Tai jumped to his feet and ran up to the Magician and the Wizard.

The Magician said, "The Pokemon World and the Digital world are about to implode because the people from the Pokemon World have spent too much time here… they have to return to their own world… where they belong."

Tai nodded sadly. Ash ran up to him and put a hand on his shoulder. "It'll be okay, Tai, we'll still be friends!"

Akiyoshi looked at Satoshi. "You can send yourself and the others back to your world."

Just then as all the Pokemon people started glowing and fading, Ash grinned at his friend and said, "We'll always be friends!"

Tai smiled sadly. "Always!"

The Pokemon people and the Wizard disappeared back to their world, never to return again.

The Magician smiled at Tai. "Well… aren't you going to grant your own wish and say something very important?"

WAIT!! What happened to James? I totally forgot!!

Just as James landed on a tree and all the birds flew out in a hurry, Chimecho appeared next to him.

James had teary eyes. "Chimecho!! You're back!" He hugged the pokemon so tightly that Chimecho almost choked.

"Chime Chimecho Chime Chimecho!"

"What? Mr Wizard has a message for me?" James repeated. "What on earth could it be?"

If you really wished you were a good guy, then in your heart, you already were.

Tai stood alone on the edge of the rocky mountain. Sora watched him from her seated position.

"…why didn't you tell me, Tai?" Sora asked. "…the way you felt about me?"

Tai stared at the ground. "… Sora…"

Sora got to her feet, and headed towards Tai. Tai turned around to face her.

He was so ashamed. That Sora would find out about it and not from him. But she smiled and said softly, "You don't have to say anything," She hugged him lovingly. Tai stared at her blankly, and then hugged her back.

You didn't have to say anything…

to grant your wish.

THE END!

I suppose the ending was a bit weird but it was better than the ending of the prequel. Heh, that one was just kinda stupid. Anyway, wow, I've improved so much from ­­A Poke-digi world? I'm glad! But then ­­A Poke-digi world? was the first fanfiction I wrote which wasn't a one-shot. I remember it was the first fanfiction that I had ever updated every week just like all the other fanfic that I have written since then… sigh… I'm so happy!

But there ain't any time to stretch and take a break! Next fanfic's out next week! It's going to be my second One Piece fanfiction and it will be called Saving Nami.

And just like the other one, it will be Zoro/Nami and it will be action/adventure.

I guess last time some people got disappointed because Zoro and Nami didn't really end up together. Anyway, in Saving Nami, Nami gets kidnapped and Zoro goes through a guilt trip so he sets off on a journey to rescue her. Sanji is always hot on his heels to rescue his princess but not only do they both have to win Nami's love for themselves, they also have to rescue her from the kidnapper who is a lot smarter than they thought.

Well, I hope you'll all read it! Anyway, read and review!

grins! I'm gonna cry! This story's finally over!
