Everything for you
Chapter Two: "Like Dominos, the Digidestined will fall"
Tai was floating in darkness. He couldn't think or feel anything, except the crushing weight of the dark around him. In front of him a bright light flashed and formed into TK.
He floated over to Tai and said "Just because every thing's changing, doesn't mean it's never been this way before."
Another light flashed and became Davis "All you can do is try and know who your friends are, before you head off to the war."
Once again light flashed, and formed into a person close to Tai, this time Kari "Pick a star on the dark horizon and follow the light"
That instant hundreds of lights flashed and Tai felt the weight lift from him. He floated past his friends and towards one of the "stars". As he got closer the lights around him began to die out until only the one he had chosen remained. He got to it and reached his hand to touch it and when he did it formed into Sora "I'll come back, when you call me."
"No need to say goodbye…" Tai mumbled
Then the dark began to fade into white as Tai woke up.
He found himself strapped to a large metal table with Agumon laying on a table near him. Tai looked around the room and recognized it in an instant. It was the basement of the upside down Pyramid that Datamon and held Sora in, a moment after Tai discovered where he was, his eyes landed on none other than Datamon, someone Tai thought long gone.
"Ah I see you're awake" The evil cyborg said.
"How did you survive the fall into Etamon's Dark network?" Tai demanded
"Not even I know that, but when I did escape, I knew who I needed to get revenge on, the one responsible of sending me to that awful place! You!" Datamon shouted
"Me! How is it my fault!" Tai said
"If you hadn't come to rescue the girl then Etamon would have never found me, and I wouldn't have died!" Datamon said "You started the chain of events that led to my fall, it's your fault!"
"What are you planning?" Tai said
"The same thing I was before, cloning a Digidestined, only this time it's you I'll make a copy of! Then I'll use that copy to attack your friends. Like dominos, the Digidestined will fall!" Datamon said as a BlackAgumon walked into Tai's view. "I've already cloned Agumon the only problem is that I had to make him a virus type so he would obey my commands, which is what caused his coloring to be different than your Agumon."
More rage filled Tai's heart and he shouted "How could you do that?"
"Like this!" Datamon said as he flipped a switch
A small hood of metal began slowly scanning over Tai's body, the pain was excruciating, it felt as though every part of his body was being torn down to its smallest level and being examined with a high powered laser. Every muscle every bone screamed in protest and the red beam passed over it again and again, his very hair wished for the pain to stop.. Tai shouted half from pain half from anger, this scum had done this to Sora? Put her through this kind of pain, when Tai got his hands on him he was going to make him regret ever laying a hand on her. Tai forced himself to look at a table several feet away and saw a mess of brown hair begin to take shape.
---------------------------------
"Tai's been gone a very long time" Kari said
"It's Tai, he can take care of himself, besides, the Digital world has been peaceful since MaloMyotismon was beaten." TK said
"I guess you're right, but I'm still worried." Kari said looking at Tai's door.
Then they heard a sound and saw a light flash under Tai's door. Then Tai himself walked into the living room.
"I told you there was nothing to worry about." TK said
Kari smiled and turned to Tai "So how was your walk?"
"Very enlightening" Tai said with an evil undertone to his voice
"Well that's good to hear…" Kari said suspiciously
"What? Don't you believe me?" Tai said
"No, I do, it's just that you seem a little… off." Kari said
Tai smiled and said "The Master said you would be hard to trick. BlackAgumon go!"
"BlackAgumon?" TK said jumping off his seat
"Look out TK! That's not Tai!" Kari said
"Pepper Breath!" Came the call from Tai's room as the Virus type showed himself. The green fireball flew straight at Kari until…
"Lightning Paw!" In a flash Gatomon was in front of her partner slashing the worst of the attack and blocking the rest.
"Boom Bubble! Pah!" The attack was on course for BlackAgumon but when it hit it didn't seem to have any effect.
"What's wrong! The attack hit!" TK Shouted
"We've got to Digivolve!" Gatomon said
"Right." Kari said with a nod
"Gatomon Digivolve to…."
"Patamon Digivolve to…"
"Angewomon!"
"Angemon!"
"We have to take this fight outside." Angemon said
"Right." Angewomon replied
Angemon flew into Tai's room and grabbed BlackAgumon then threw his staff at the window shattering it. The angelic duo flew outside and Angemon recovered his staff. He dropped BlackAgumon on the roof and regrouped. The champion and Ultimate level Digimon watched their foe as Angewomon said "It doesn't seem fair."
"Something's not right, fairness can wait until the next fight." Angemon said
Inside the apartment Kari shouted "Who are you?"
Tai in turn just smirked and ran over to the broken window and shouted out "BlackAgumon, now!"
On the roof BlackAgumon began to glow an ominous purple then howled "BlackAgumon Warpdigivolve to… BlackWarGreymon!"
"Nova Destroyer!" the dark Dragon warrior shouted as he jumped into the air and gathered a huge fireball in his hands and threw it at the angelic duo.
Angemon flew to the right and dodged the attack and Angewomon was about to follow suit until she remembered all the people inside the building. She planted her feet and shouted "Heaven's Charm!"
Her signature pink cross formed in front of her, BlackWarGreymon's attack hit it and eventually dissipated. However the strain left Angewomon severely weakened and she reverted to Salamon. Inside Kari gasped in horror as Tai laughed. TK clenched his fist and shouted "Angemon Digivolve again!"
The angelic Digimon nodded and flew up into the air "Angemon Digivolve to…"
"BlackWarGreymon stop him, or you'll never stand a chance!" Tai shouted
BlackWarGreymon dashed at Angemon his clawed had poised to strike.
"MagnaAngemo-" Angemon was cut short as a claw sunk into his gut. His digivolution broken, Angemon fell to the roof and reverted to Tokomon.
TK howled in furry and threw a punch at Tai, who grabbed his fist mid strike and punched him in the gut, knocking him out.
"Oh my god!" Kari screamed but only earned a back hand from her brother's copy.
BlackWarGreymon glided back to where his partner stood with Salamon and Tokomon in each of his hands. Tai smiled and dragged the unconscious children to the computer in Tai's room. He threw them in front of it and BlackWarGreymon did the same with their Digimon. Tai pulled out a Digivice and said "Digiport open". The computer complied and pulled in TK, Kari, Salamon, and Tokomon.
BlackWarGreymon de-digivolved back to BlackAgumon and said "Who's next master?"
"Lord Datamon ordered us to attack Izzy Izumi and Davis Motomiya next, without a brain or a leader, the Digidestined will be easy to destroy." Tai said
Meanwhile Tai sat in a dark dank dungeon cell with Agumon, who was severely weakened from being cloned. Very few words passed between the two until Datamon walked into the room with people in his hands. Upon closer inspection Tai saw that it was TK and Kari.
"What did you do to them!" Tai demanded
"What did I do? You should be asking what you did." Datamon laughed as he threw them in a neighboring cell.
"That copy isn't me! Don't you even try and blame me!" Tai shouted
"But it is your fault, that copy is fueled by your rage and hate, your human weakness gives him strength beyond anything you could ever dream!" Datamon said
Tai grabbed the cell bars and growled "I swear, as soon as I get out of here, I'll rip you to pieces!"
"Good, just keep thinking like that, and my Tai will just get stronger." Datamon said as he walked out.
---------------------------------
Kari began to come to and found herself laying on a stone floor bars. She felt someone holding her hand and she looked around and saw Tai in the next cell over.
"Hey Kari." He said kindly
"Tai?" she said weakly "The real Tai?"
"Yeah, it's me. Datamon captured me and made the copy that attacked you guys. He came and grabbed TK a little bit ago, I think he's planning to copy all of us." Tai said
"That's awful! You have to do something!" Kari said desperately
"I am" Tai said "Datamon overplayed his hand, he told me that the copy is made stronger the angrier I get, so I figure if I'm calm he can't get any tougher than he already is."
"Wow." Kari joked "You came up with that all on your own?"
"I'll ignore tha-" Tai was cut off by the sound of TK screaming in pain
---------------------------------
"We'll attack their brain first." The Tai copy said. "BlackAgumon, do it."
In a flash BlackAgumon was back to BlackWarGreymon and jumped at Izzy's apartment with Tai following up the stairs as fast as he could.
Izzy was sitting at his computer happily typing away when his wall exploded in and BlackWarGreymon jumped into the room.
"Izzy! Look out!" Tentomon shouted as Izzy fell backwards off his chair
"Tentomon Digivolve!" Izzy shouted as Tai ran into Izzy's room
BlackWarGreymon and Kabuterimon fought outside as Tai ran into the room.
"Tai! BlackWarGreymon's back! Quick have Agumon Digivolve and help Kabuterimon!" Izzy said
"I can't Agumon is in the Digital world" Tai said deciding deceit would be the easier route to take.
Izzy ran over to his computer and after a second said "There, I pin pointed Agumon's location, open the gate."
Tai ran up to the computer and shouted "Digiport open" and grabbed Izzy at the same time.
In the blink of an eye Izzy found himself in front of a jail cell looking at… "Tai? Then who is-" Izzy began but was cut short as Tai's double smacked Izzy's head against the bars, knocking him out. A second later BlackWarGreymon came through the portal carrying Motimon.
"Ah what a pleasant gift" Datamon said as he walked into the room carrying Kari and throwing her in the same cell as TK, who was too weak to do anything but crawl over to Kari and gently hold her. "Now get back out there and attack the Motomiya boy. Then move on to Ichijouji and Ishida."
"Yes my lord" The evil Tai said before exiting through the portal.
---------------------------------
"Positron Laser!" Imperialdramon shouted
BlackWarGreymon dodged to the left and shouted "Terra Destroyer!" and spun towards Imperialdramon who dodged the worst of it, but took a nasty hit to the leg.
"Stand down Imperialdramon, unless you want something to happen to these two!" Tai shouted indicating Davis and Ken who were laying unconscious a few feet away.
Imperialdramon clenched a fist, but then released it in defeat. He de-digivolved back to Veemon and Wormmon, as BlackWarGreymon swooped down and grabbed them.
---------------------------------
"Grand Horn!"
"Tail Hammer!"
"Flower Cannon!"
All three attacks hit BlackWarGreymon's shield who just laughed and said "Pathetic! Mega Claw!"
BlackWarGreymon's attack hit all three Digimon who de-digivolved shortly afterwards
"A bit out of order, but I'm sure Lord Datamon won't mind." Tai said
"Vulcan's hammer!"
The attack was so sudden that BlackWarGreymon didn't have time to do anything but let it hit his back. "You'll pay for that!" BlackWarGreymon shouted as he attacked Zudomon.
---------------------------------
Datamon's jail was practically over flowing at this point. Tai's double was bringing in Digidestined quicker than Datamon could clone them. Only Matt and Sora were left, and Tai was worried it wouldn't be enough, he had to get out and help somehow.

DT: OK, I had too much fun writing this chapter. I guess no matter how much I love the romance I'm still a hopeless action junkie, or it could be that I've spent so much time writing romance that this is a welcome change of pace. Well whatever it is this was great. Once again, I used some lines from "The Call" at the beginning but I still don't own it, or Digimon for that matter, but that should be a given at this point.
