Sorry, this chapter took me really long.. I didn't really know how to start it and how to end it and added to that I was really busy with school.

So, Here we go again for the last time. So that's the last chapter I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed to write the whole story.

You're never gonna be alone

Izzy

To say that we're devastated is probably the understatement of the year. We just lost our leader, our mentor, but more important than that, our best friend. I still can't believe that that happened just a few minutes ago. Sora's still crying uncontrollably, with Tai in her arms. Kari finally managed to leave T.K's side and is now kneeling right beside her brother. I turn to take a look at Matt who looks, lost. "What should we do now Izzy?" Cody whispers to me. I turn around to look at him and just shrug, unable to speak. I just lost my best friend, I can't even think about something else than standing here and stare at the three on the ground with the digimon next to them. I feel so much emotion at the same time, I feel lost because the gates to our world are still closed, I feel sorry for Tai's family and for the digidestined, and including me, but most of all...I feel pain. I never felt something that horrible. Seeing Tai, so lifeless and pale is just too much for me to take.

I finally force myself to turn my glance away from Tai's body and the girls. I check the area for something helpful and frown when I suddenly see a rather familiar person appear. Gennai.

Obviously I'm not the only one noticing him. Kari stands up and is about to run towards Gennai but T.K stops her, taking her hand in his. Gennai approaches us but different than all the other times he doesn't even bother to look at us. His glance is directed at Tai's lifeless body in Sora's arms.

Sora:

Gennai kneels next to me and does something I never saw him doing before. He actually strokes a few strands of hair of Tai's beautiful face. "My poor, brave boy" Gennai whispers and I can tell that we're not the only ones who are heart-stricken. He lifts his glance to look every digidestined and every digimon right in the eyes. "I can't tell how sorry I am that this happened digidestined. I am really proud that you fought ChaosPiedmon but I rather let the digital world get destroyed than lose someone of you." He says.

"Yes. Maybe. But Tai would never let that happen. I know him quite well you know..." Kari says quietly, her glance fixed on the ground.

"She's right." Matt agrees with her.

Yeah, she's right. He would do everything possible to rescue this world and sacrifice is life wouldn't be something big for him.

"Please Gennai there has to be something we can do. There's no way we can handle something like this!" Izzy says and again, I can't do anything but agreeing with him.

"I'm sorry my friend but I don't see a way to bring back somebody who died..." Gennai responds and i froze. How can he dare to say something like that aloud?! Tai isn't dead. He just isn't. I tight my grip around his body. Afraid that he might disappear if I don't hold him tight enough.

"We're in the digital world! Nothing's impossible here!" Agumon shouts from his spot. I didn't even realize that he digivolved again.

'There's always a solution Sora, you know what you to do, you just have so ask for my help...'

I frown and look around, the others doesn't seem that they heard the voice too. I look around the area but can't spot anybody and then, it's like somebody lifts my arm...i raise my hand with my digivice in it, pointing it straight to the sky and just as my arm is fully lifted my digivice glows in a bright red and a light beam extends to the sky. The others are looking at me with a strange expression and honestly, I'm pretty confused by myself. Why did I just do this? And why is there a light beam?

Kari raises her hand with her own digivice to the sky with the same result, just that her beam is pink. The others all follow my and Kari's actions and a few moments later eleven light beams are extending right to the sky. Gennai looks just as us with wide eyes. We're now standing in a circle, except for me of course, I will not let go of Tai, with our digivices pointing straight to the sky and it's like the different beams unite together to one giant beam that seems to jack the sky.

(The one of the temple) Taichi:

I look out to the night sky, totally fascinated by the stars and the darkness of the night. Yeah, I really missed this.. But I can't enjoy the view as much as I want to. Tai Kamiya just died a couple of minutes ago and I can't allow that to happen. There's still something I can do to give him his life back and there's absolutely nothing what will stop me from that. It's my duty to watch over this guy.

"Deep in thought huh?" I hear a rather familiar voice asking and I turn around to look at the golden digimon who's standing a couple of meters behind me.

"Fanglomon, I didn't expect you to visit me." I reply nonchalantly. I'm quite surprised that the leader of the Sovereigns actually is visiting me. In all the centuries of the digital world I never heard of the fact that Fanglomon actually talks with other creatures than the other Sovereigns. ¨

"To what do I owe the honor of this visit?" I ask him. Fanglomon comes a little nearer before he replies. "The leader of the digidestined died. He was your heir; I thought you could use an old friend"

I can't help but smile a little. Yeah I lost him and it hurts me just as bad as the other digidestined down there on earth.

"You know that I'm not letting it be don't you?" I ask him and I can see that he expected this from me.

"Of course not Taichi. I know you; I was the one who chose you. But if the digidestined want our help, they have to ask for it." Fanglomon replies.

Yeah, thought of that.

I stare a little while in Fanglomon's eyes before turning around and stare, once again, in one of the darkest nights I've ever seen. The temple of the sovereigns is really pretty. It's huge and everything is in a white tone. Very bright if you ask me. When I died in the temple I expected that I will go to heaven or something like that, you know the stuff all the humans are talking about. The life after death. But it never came to me, after I died in the temple I woke up, in the temple of the sovereigns, thousands of feet above the sky, and to be honest, I was glad that my life didn't end. I love the digital world, it's my home and it always has been. But Tai's home isn't here, so I will not allow that he dies in here. He's supposed to life in his world, with his love. He's supposed to have the life I didn't have. And with that thought I concentrate myself as good as I can and try to connect her.

''There's always a solution, Sora you know what you to do, you just have so ask for my help...'

Okay, that's all I can do for now. I just have to wait and hope that she understands what I mean. I really have to fight against the desire to laugh when I see the beam of light, shining directly at the temple. I sigh relieved and turn back to face Fanglomon.

"They're asking us for help old friend." I say, grinning. Fanglomon doesn't respond. He just stares at me with his many red eyes.

"And how do you want to help them? Not even you can bring back the death ones." Fanglomon responds finally and my grin turns into a small smile and I look Fanglomon straight in a pair of eyes of him.

"I lived my life Fanglomon I will –" I start but Fanglomon interrupts me.

"No you didn't. You can't say that you lived your life Taichi. You didn't. All you did was to protect the Crystal. You gave your life up for your task and now that your task is done you can be free. You are free. You did a really good job down there on earth, you made us sovereigns really proud and we gave you a chance to life, so don't dare to waste it for a digidestined who died because he was reckless." I can't do anything but stare at him.

How dare he say that? It's Tai we're talking about!

"Yeah maybe he was reckless but you know as well as me that this guy did a lot more for this world than I did. Yes I protected the Crystal, but I lived a life before that. I was happy that you chose me for this, that you gave me new world to life in, but I'm done here. I will give him my life. I know that I will vanish then but he will live. That's all I want." I say and stand right in the beam of light in the middle of the room.

"Why? Why do you want to sacrifice your whole existence just to give this guy his life back?" Fanglomon asks finally.

"Because Taichi Kamiya is supposed to be more than just a digidestined who lost his life in a battle against the evil. He's supposed to have a family, to live a happy life with a beautiful wife and a great house. He doesn't deserve to die like me. I died in the digital world and I will vanish in here, but that's because I want it to be that way. I lived here. That's my home and that's the place I want to be forever, but Tai isn't like me. He lives in his world, with his friends and family, he's supposed to die there and find his peace there and I will give him this chance."

Fanglomon stares a little longer at me until he finally nods. "It was my pleasure to know you Taichi"

I smile at him with my trademark grin.

"The pleasure was all mine old friend."

And with that I close my eyes and give up my existence, giving my life to a guy that I never met before, but I know for sure, that he will not take this second chance for granted.

(Kamiya) Tai:

To be unconscious is probably one of the worst feelings ever, you know, the feeling when you know that you're going to lose consciousness any second. But you know what? To be brought back in life is worse. In one moment you're free of everything, you don't feel anything, no pain, no grief, nothing and in the next moment it's like you bounce on the tarmac and everything is back. You sense the arms that are holding you, you hear your best friend talking to you, hoping that you finally open your eyes again, and of course, you feel the pain of all your injuries. You feel your body again, and in my case I really would love to die again just to escape the pain. I try to concentrate on the positive things, the arms that are holding me in a really lovely kind. The warmth of the body I'm leaning on and the comfortable, deep and a little raspy voice of somebody who I recognize as my best friend and one of the digidestined; Matt.

"Tai come on, don't do this to us. Wake up we know you're here. As much as I hate to admit it because I know you will take care of the fact that I will never forget what I'm about to say; we're lost without you buddy."

Ha! You will never forget this one Matt.

I never really thought that Matt could probably say something that shows how much he really cares about me. I feel Sora's hand caressing my cheek.

"Open your eyes baby, please" she whispers, taking my hand in hers. I manage to squeeze it and hear her gasp as I do so. I open my eyes slightly and look straight in the most beautiful face I've ever seen. If I didn't know what's really going on I probably would think that I'm looking at an angel. Sora's crimson eyes are a little swollen...

Great job Kamiya, she cried over you, again.

But much to my relief I notice that she's smiling brightly at me and... I feel at home.

~3 weeks later/Real World/Tai's new apartment~

Kari:

Life can be so perfect. A couple of weeks ago I never would think about saying something like that, but it is! After my brother returned from the US I thought that everything would be normal again, but what can I say? I'm not living a normal life, so nothing will be normal, ever. The fight with ChaosPiedmon was the worst thing that has ever happened to me, not because we were all bad injured or something, no, because I lost my brother who finally came home. So nobody can imagine how happy and incredibly relieved I felt when we actually received help from the sky when we pointed our digivices to it. I will never forget how a bright flash of light came down at gave Tai his life back. After that three weeks passed and a lot happened in this time. Tai moved out and bought himself a huge penthouse, yep, he actually gained very much money with soccer in the US, he also signed a treaty by the FC Tokyo so he will play in this team but of course he will additionally go to college with Sora and Matt. I don't know how he will manage this, but it's my brother I'm talking about. The others all returned to their daily routine. Izzy and Mimi, who decided to move back for sure to Japan, are now in their senior year in high school. Yolei, Ken, T.K, Davis, Cody and I go to high school; Cody started his freshmen year actually. Joey is, as usual, totally busy with his stadium and tests. Although we're all busy every day we manage to meet at least once a week all together, to a dinner, a movie or just hanging around, but today it's more than that. Tai moved in in his penthouse yesterday and it's time to celebrate that.

I'm leaning on Tai's kitchen island with my second drink this evening. I want to stay sober, for the nonce. I search the area for Tai or Sora, but of course, they aren't in sight. The apartment is filled with so much people; I don't even know the half of them. Tai obviously just invited everyone he met on street. The digidestined are having the time of their life, drinking, laughing and celebrating all together. The digimons are celebrating for themselves in one of Tai's many rooms, it would be really weird when the people in here would see them...and of course, we don't want any drama.

My sight catches T.K and I froze. We haven't talked much since the fight.

Okay, let's do this.

I pull myself together and wait for him to notice my gaze, and so he does. I mention him to follow me and we exit the living room, going out on the terrace. Wow, the view is amazing. It really is, Tai's penthouse is on the highest floor on a skyscraper so we can see throughout Odaiba. I lean on the balustrade next to T.K who's looking straight to the lights of the city.

"I'm sorry that we haven't talked much Kari." He begins, probably knowing what I want to talk about. I move a little nearer to him until our shoulders touch. I turn my head to look at him; he notices that and turns his head too, looking me straight in the eye.

"T.K, I wanted to apologize about what I said back in the digital world. You have to know that this thing wasn't me. I would never hurt you like that, you know that. I love you, of course, you're my best friend but I really do" I whisper, totally ashamed of myself for hurting the boy I love. T.K smiles at me, he doesn't look angry or something I had expected. He turns fully at me and takes my hand in his. "I know Kari." And with that he leans, once again, in to a kiss, and this time I'm fully aware of my actions.

Tai:

"Tai where are we going?" Sora asks probably for the third time. "Up" I reply. She giggles once again and follows me, staying quiet, but not for long. "Okay and why exactly did you cover my eyes?" She asks, for...the fourth time?

I stop in my track and turn around to face her; although she doesn't see what I'm doing I'm sure she knows. I lean in and kiss her lightly on her soft lips, causing her to warp her arms immediately around me but I pull back fast enough. "Later" I whisper. Taking her hand once again in mine, I take her up. Up to the rooftop. I know it's forbidden, but who cares, right? I change my position and stand behind her, covering her eyes with my hands and pushing her towards the balustrade.

"Ready?" I whisper next to her ear. "Yep" She replies. I take my hands away from her eyes and warp my arms around her belly from my spot behind her. She gasps when she sees the view.

I understand her reaction, I mean; the view is incredible, especially because it's night. Sora leans her head at my shoulder, turning her head looking at me.

"I love you" She whispers. "I love you" I reply just as quiet as she.

I turn to take my bag which I took with myself. Sora turns around to look at me and burst into laughter. "Are you serious?" She laughs and I just grin sheepishly at her. "What?" I ask her. She mentions to the bottle in my hand. "Do you really think it was a good idea to take the vodka with us?" She laughs harder now. "Of course, imagine what could happen when this one falls in the wrong hands" I reply in the most serious tone I'm able to. "So, you mean ours?" she says grinning at me.

"Maybe?" I grin.

"I would love to see hangover Tai you know" Sora says, reaching me and taking the bottle of my hand to open it.

"Yeah I guess you will tonight." I say. Sora takes a sip and gives the bottle back to me. We continue with this until the bottle is empty. I would not say that I'm drunk, maybe a little but not as much as my beautiful girlfriend who's laughing uncontrollably right now because of the fact that we emptied this bottle. I don't know why that's so funny but I decided to just enjoy seeing her happy.

"You know Tai; I really fell in love with your new home. I actually can imagine myself to live here with you one day." She says out of the blue and I'm really surprised that she brings that theme by herself.

"Yeah...about that.." I start and it's like she sobered in just a second. "Did I say something wrong?" She asks a little confused I can tell. I grin my trademark grin which she loves so much and reach for her hand, pulling her to me. "No, I bought this apartment because I want to share it with you. I want to spend every single moment of my life with you and that for the rest of our lives Sor"

"Are you proposing right now?" She asks me grinning. "Isn't it a little too early for that?"

I grin back and shake my head. "No. I'm asking you to move in with me." I reply, looking her straight in the eyes.

"I'd love to." She replies, warping her arms around my waist, bringing herself nearer to me until she's able to reach for my lips. The kiss immediately grows more passionate and I really have to pull myself together to resist the urge to rip her clothes off of her body right here, so I pull back.

"I hate you for this" She whispers a little frustrated. I laugh a little at her tone, I just can't help it.

"So, I guess you will stay for the night?" I ask her sheepishly, making her laugh once again.

"Of course, do you really think I can go home in my drunken state?" I just shrug at this.

"Oh right, it isn't because you want to have sex with me the whole night" I reply sarcastically and she bursts into laughter once again, but she stops suddenly, getting serious again.

"So...about the proposing thing" Sora starts and I frown a little confused that she starts once again with this theme. "I want a cute ring, make sure to buy the right one" She says, causing me to burst into laughter.

"What's so funny?" She asks and I really hope I didn't provoke her. I take her face in my hands forcing her to look straight in my eyes.

"I think I will purpose with a diamond hairclip" I say as serious as I can. Her eyes are wide and I can tell that she can't realize what she heard right now.

"I will kill you Kamiya, slow and torturous." She says with an expression I really don't know what I should think about so I lean in and kiss her again.

"I'm fine with that, you can start later in my bedroom" And with that I lift my baby up and take her back in our home. I mean, it's a little rude not to be on our own party...

Of course I wrote a happy ending, I couldn't bring myself to kill Tai, I mean, I love him! ((:

So, that was my first story ever. I never wrote any before, I really hope you liked to read it and thanks to everyone who took the time to write me a Message or review this story.

So, please review if that's possible I'd love to know what you think about the whole story!

I don't know if I will write another, maybe when I have another idea I will probably start another, I really want to write more, I just need ideas! (:

Take care everyone!
