'Thoughts'

Actions or sign language

{"I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you upset I just… I just don't want him to get hurt for what he did. He's really sorry and the darkness left his body so he's okay now. He said he just wanted to understand why we sang the songs that gave people the key to light."}

I said this over a month ago and Willis and Ryo seem to have forgiven the guy who shot me because they didn't want me to keep bearing this burden. But it's my burden to carry and nothing can change that.

"Keru open the door me and Will are busy!" I heard Ryo yell from his room where him and Willis now called Will by Ryo are. They've been locked in there for a while now I wonder what they could be doing.

"Hello and welcome to our humble home!" I said as cheerfully as I could and saw Matt standing there nervously followed by the others failing to hide themselves in the elevator.

"Yeah?" he rubbed his neck nervously and blinked his eyelids rapidly. 'What could possibly make him nervous in front of me he? He could usually careless and usually does. Even when he wanted to apologize he was always calm the regular Mr. Cool that he is. I have a headache I should stop thinking now.'

"Uh, Tk since it's your birthday and all we wanted to know if you'd like to spend it at the Kamiya's house since it's bigger and all the parents will be there."

"It's my birthday?" I asked stupidly as I blinked and took out my cell phone looking at the little chain of an Angel before checking the date. 'Huh so it is my birthday and I didn't know it. Man I must me so absent minded not to know or I'm just stupid.' I looked up at him to see him staring at me as if he didn't know what to think.

"Well I don't think I got anything else to do. Looks like it'll rain today I wonder if it will or I'm just feeling nothing. Strange I feel empty and numb oh well better tell Nadia see you there." I heard myself respond emotionlessly as I waved and turned back inside to look for Nadia.

"Tk?"

"Yeah?"

"You left the door open." I looked at him from the hall way and went to close the door. 'Guess I am absent minded today, Nadia isn't around and neither are the others. Hm, guess I'll write a note and head to Matt's birthday party. Have to buy a present first and I guess I'll leave this on just need to get some money.' I thought as I grabbed my wallet and left to the store a few blocks from our Condo and close to the Kamiya's house.

"Hello how much would it be to by that watch over there?" I asked the woman sales clerk and she blushed before handing it to me and running to her boss.

"Twenty thousand yen."*ps I don't know about Japanese currency so this is a guess* I read and put the money on the counter and putting the box with the watch inside my pocket. I made my way to the school since it's been a long time since I last went to the Kamiya house so I didn't know my way by heart unless I was at the school.

I looked at my sleeveless black shirt and black knee short with my knee high boots. Strange how I don't seem to feel any emotion at all not since I sent mom and dad to the dark light dimension. I can't even bring myself to fake it like usual and I've become so absent minded I feel stupid but Ryo made me take that IQ test and it's still the same as the last time.

"Um excuse me Slayer can I have your autograph?" a girl asked me so I looked at her before taking her notebook and pen.

"Who do I make it out to?"

"To another fan of Hopeless Darkness named Kira." She said and I nodded before signing the notebook and giving it to her. She left so I made my way o the Kamiya house and knocked on the door. The door opened and everyone stared at me for a few seconds before smiling. I walked over to Matt and handed him the box.

"Happy Birthday." He looked at me strangely so did everyone else and I just went to the kitchen to get a cup of water.

"Uh, Tk it's your birthday not mine."

"Really? I thought you said it was your birthday and you invited me to a party." I took out my cell phone and saw the date was my birthday and tried to remember if he told me it was my birthday. 'Nope I don't remember but then again I don't remember how I even got here or where I got that gift from. Maybe someone gave it to me a fan or Willis?'

"Takeru, how are you doing?" A man with brown hair asked me and he looked a lot like Matt.

"Fine thank you for asking. Who are you by the way?" he looked startled and then sad before smiling and putting out his hand.

"I'm Matt's father Malcolm Ishida." Wait isn't Matt my half-brother or something like that. Would that make this guy my dad?

"Is something wrong? You're crying?" I looked at the ground to see water hitting it and it was coming from my eyes. 'Why would I be crying unless I forgot something and I don't want to remember because its painful like that woman with blond hair and the angel, along with my parents. Come to think I can't seem remember most of my life like how I know these people but I know their names. I have a lot to think about so I don't really have time for Matt's birthday party. But I should introduce myself to the people and tell them I'm not Tk.'

"I'm sorry but I have a couple of things to think about so I can't stay for your birthday Matt. And my name is Slayer I don't know who Tk is I already know your names somehow so you don't have to tell me them. Thank you for inviting me over and good bye." I bowed to them and left out the door trying to figure some things out like how it is I know them.

"Wait Tk your name is Tk well Takeru and you used to be part of our gang the Digi-destined."

"You know about the Digital world? How do you know about it?"

"Because we were the ones to save it a couple times and you were with us. Don't you remember you're Hope and I'm Light." I stared at the brown haired girl named Hikari "Kari" Kamiya/Yagami.

"Light… and Hope will shoot arrows at courage and friendship… Myotismon, VenomMyotismon, and MaloMyotismon… its dark… my head hurts… why can't I remember?" The water that came out of now where became black and my hands were disappearing but something told me not to be afraid so I closed my eyes and let go. When I opened my eyes I was in the same place only it was darker and looked like it hasn't been lived in for years.

"Foolish child of Hope I hold the key to your memories and you shall never get them back! The darkness will rule the world once you fail! My name is Daemon and thanks to those spores that I implanted into you when you first came here I will control you! You shall not remember child of Hope! Your past belongs to me; your precious memories will belong to darkness! We shall rule the world and there is nothing you can do to stop us."

"You fool the child of Hope shall be mine! I will use his power to control all worlds. Come to me child of Hope my name is Dragomon and I will succeed where you have failed Daemon!" I looked at the Dragon and the Man in the red torn robes,

"I open the door to light where there is Miracles and Wisdom lie to help this stranded Hope to the entrance of darkness light." I said and turned to see that I was once again standing in the same place as before the darkness came.

"Slayer!" I turned and got tackled to the ground by Miracles along with Fighter.

"We sensed that you were taken to the Kingdom of Darkness! Are you alright did they do anything to hurt you cause if they did." they trailed off and I felt some how like more was missing than just my memories. Like I was missing my heart and soul and because of it I began to cry not understanding anything anymore.

"Slayer what's wrong.

"Foolish Child of Hope I hold the key to you memories and you shall never get them back… thanks to those spores that I implanted into you when you first came here I will control you… who am I?" I asked Miracles and Fighter both of them looked nervous and I knew it was because of the tears falling down and I made them stop just as easily as they came.

"I'm going to the roof I need to think oh I think you need to tell Matt happy birthday." They also looked at me strangely as I left and shook their heads silently. When I got onto the roof it was raining and windy plus Nadia was up there holding a bottle of vodka.

"Here just drink this alright and you'll feel better Fighter told me not to but I noticed you always felt better after you drank something." I nodded to her as we sat on the edge of the roof taking turns sipping the bottle until it was gone.

"What happened to me Nadia? When and why did this have to happen to me?"

"Because you are the angel of Hope and you were chosen by Angemon." She responded and red markings began to appear on my body. They lit up and I was being shocked so badly I couldn't scream at all. Nadia disappeared and the pain began to get unbearable sweat began to fall off my face and tears off my cheeks. It was so hot and I couldn't even see anymore.

"Slayer say something! What's wrong!" someone shouted and I tried to open my eyes but I couldn't move anymore. I heard a scream it sounded horrible I had to cover my ears even then I could still hear it.

"Slayer stop screaming what's wrong talk to us please! It'll be okay honey just calm down." The pain left just as suddenly as it came and I was so out of breath and tired.

"Stop it… no more hurting him please… stop them from hurting him?" I shouted as I held someone's hand and they nodded to me but I know they didn't understand I had to get to the digital world. I felt a burning sensation on back and I shouted in pain as I felt as if something was clawing my back. Something soft and feathery landed on me and also something that felt like sand paper.

"Wings? But how what's going on with Slayer, Sakuya?" I heard someone say and decided that the things that landed on me are wings. 'No time to think Digital Portal open at my command to the destiny stone nearest my reach.' Everything started getting blended together and so were the sounds until we were in the mountain sector that held the destiny stone. I walked up to the stone which was pretty difficult considering I could barely stand and see.

"What have they done to you to make you scream in such pain?" I asked touching the stone feeling the pain vibrating off of it. An angel appeared looking at me with such pain and sorrow before vanishing from sight and from this destiny stone. Tears falling down my face as I felt his pain again.

"Angemon don't leave me again." 'What did I mean again? Who is this angel digimon and why can I feel everything about him? I have to find him again and make his pain stop.' I thought as I looked towards the bridge knowing it for some reason that someone tried to push me off it.

"Slayer what's going on?"

"I have to stop them and help him… because he might be the one to save me from this despair." I began to cross the bridge even though some of its planks fell and it swung I would not stop until I reached him. I watched as my foot slipped out from underneath me and I fell through the hole but I quickly grabbed the rope and began to pull myself along until I reached the other side and climbed up.

"Slayer wait up you can't be alone here in this world!" Fighter shouted and I knew it was true but I was safe in no dimension. They caught up with me as I was running down the mountain.

"To the sea, to the sea is where I want to be!" I shouted and I found myself in front of that destiny stone the water was parted so I could pass. This seemed familiar and I don't know why. I ran and touched the destiny stone seeing that the closer I got the more pain I felt from him.

"What are they doing to you and why can't you tell me! Don't just run away please let me help you!"

"I'm sorry I caused you pain Takeru but I am too weak to help you from becoming corrupt by the spores. Have hope and fight…" he faded away again and it hurt worse than when I sent my parents away.

{"Angemon no! don't leave me!"

"I will come back if you want me to Takeru." He said as he disappears feathers falling into a pile and becoming a digiegg.}

{"Digimon don't die Ken. They get reborn they get to start over."

"Wormmon…"}

"So you guys never really told us about your first adventure with out Kari. What happened?" Davis asked and I fidgeted a little the others looking at me.

"I'll tell them. It started when we went to summer camp it began to snow and our digivices came out of the ground. When we took hold of them we were taken to the digital world. You see the digital world called us to stop the threat on its world, the threat of the black gears which Ken used after he modified them to be dark rings and control spires. The master mind was… Devimon a vampire digimon who knew of the prophecy that was told when the digidestined arrived. That the youngest shall rise to defeat the evil.

We met a lot of good friends like Leomon, Elecmon, Miramon, Whamon, and Unimon. We went to go defeat Devimon but Patamon was the only one who couldn't digivolve the others could. We had to stay out of the fight and the others were losing there was nothing we could do.

Devimon came after he knocked down the others and would have got me if Patamon hadn't of pushed me out of the way. Patamon digivolved to Angemon a beautiful angel. It was a day that I would never forget and never could because it haunts my dreams. Patamon destroyed Devimon and died… back then we didn't know that digimon could be reborn and I took it harder than any of us really expected. I never wanted to fight or let Patamon fight again but I knew that we had to do it anyway. That was why I was afraid when MaloMyotismon came he brought up old memories."}

"Angemon… you were my other half…" I said as the water came down on me when Matt called out to me.

'Let there be light in the darkest of depths, to sweep out the pain that hides in the worlds. I call up on the light of dark and dark of light to help me cleanse the worlds and set about peace to the worlds.' I closed my eyes and let myself go after I spoke the words of cleansing.
