He could see it for the first time in a long time. He could see hope.
Though he still couldn't touch, or smell, or hear, or taste it or anything else, he could see hope and that was enough for the moment.
His shadow, the demon that currently controlled his body, was beyond angry it had been seen for what it was. It hissed and screamed so loud inside of him he could actually hear the vile sounds through the thick tar that covered all but his eyes. It hurt him after the neglect his ears had faced over the time they had been covered, but if he could have he would have laughed at the shadows pain after the pain it had caused him.
In its rage the monster beat and pounded at the hard tar it had formed around his body to the point where it cracked. He was unharmed, and the second the monster calmed itself it fixed the crack and went back to its post at the controls, but what mattered most to him was he just saw the monster break down to the point that the tar cracked.
The tar could crack, it could break and be shattered, and he could be free!
Of course there would be a fight, people and digimon possibly hurt, and he didn't want that part, but there was hope, the tar could break and the demon could be hurt, and he could be freed. His friends knew now, and they would fight for him.
Or if not all of them, he knew at the very least Ken would fight for him like he had fought for Ken. And Veemon would fight to, his partner would never let him down.
The monster set to work, doing all in its power, that it suddenly realized was limited, to avoid his friends and make it impossible for them to fight it.
He watched as it buried his D-terminal and Digivice in the part so he couldn't be messaged or tracked, as the monster made sure to change any classes it had with his friends to classes as far away from the as possible. He watched it convince his mother to pick him up from school everyday and his father to drive him to school early, as it reprogramed his computer so the others couldn't enter his place through the digital world, as it even convinced his entire family to turn away anyone who wished to see him so the demon could study in peace.
And for a good month the demons plans to keep the other digidestened away worked, but there was one flaw it didn't know about.
Jun still had a minor crush on Matt, so when the rock star came to the door saying he would go on a date with her if he could see Davis for a moment alone, she willingly let him in.
The demon was to busy with homework to notice when the older chosen child came into the room, it only looked up when it heard the door click shut. When it saw Matt it hissed and he silently cheered in his solid black prison. It made his body growl out some response to Matt and Matt only smirked and sat on the foot of his bed, saying something else that only served to piss the demon off more.
It grabbed a book off the desk it was sitting at and chucked it at the other boy, who caught it, kept talking, thus kept pissing off the demon.
It wasn't until Matt snapped a couple photos on his cell phone that the demon had had enough and screamed bloody murder. His family charged into the room and Matt was removed from his sight.
Now agitated from Matts visit, the demon stood and paced the room as it came up with new plans to keep everyone away. It spun carefully made stories and practiced its already perfect acting, so the next time he so much as saw his friends it could request a restraining order against them. The only story that, if told, would get the demon caught was the one against Ken, but he knew Ken was smart enough not to come to his door step, that Ken would find another way to save him.
He just had to wait and hope Matts visit and those photos taken would help. He knew his friends had a plan after all that. What the plan was, he was clueless, but that meant the demon was to, so he would wait.
He had hope now and hope made him patient.
So he could wait.
And wait.
And wait.
