Chapter 5

Takuya grinned.

He was beginning to feel refreshed and revitalised and pretty much back to his old self, those nightmares plagueing his sleep were now few and far between. Kouji had been a major help in making those nasty nightmares disappear. Every night the ravenette would pull him over and hold him closely as he fell asleep, his light effectively blocking out any sort of darkness trying to invade the brunette. He was beginning to the think that it was all just him over reacting.

It was their fourth day after finding each other and they still had not found a trailmon station or even the tracks. It was beginning to bother them but no one voiced their concerns.They were getting no where fast but Takuya wasnt really starting to mind. They were together just like they were the first time through and even then they were hopelessly lost.

''man, wheres bokomon and neemon when you need them?" Takuya grumbled, looking down at the egg ''And when is this stupid thing going to hatch!? I want to see what it is."

"Jeez Takuya, dont you have any patience at all?" Junpei asked

"No." the brunette stated bluntly. "I hope its some cool digimon that kicks serious ass or something!"

The others rolled their eyes and a continued on as the brunette ranted about how otally awesome his new digimon was going to be. Tomoki walked along side Takuya, nodding excitedly to what the leader was saying. It made Kouji smirk to himself.

'He certainly hasnt changed a bit. Still admiring Takuya like some sort of hero."

"Uwaaaah!"

Takuya froze and nearly dropped the egg. Confused, the other digidestind surrounded him.

"what?"

"The. . the eggs moving!"

Izumi broke into a grin "Its hatching Takuya!"

"Really!? So soon?"

"Man, you were just complaining at how slow it was being and now that its actually hatching, you say its too soon? make up your mind!"

Takuya went to make a retort but the egg in his arms started to glow until it transformed into a small,white digimon with purple tint to its ears, ad a small red triangle on its forehead . It blinked and stared at everyone before looking up the awed brunette.

It giggled.

"Are you my mommy?"

silence. . .

then everyone burst out laughing

"W-W-What?"

"Yep! this here is your mommy" Kouichi said between laughs. He patted his twins back "And this one here is your daddy"

That had everyone laughing harder and Kouichi found himself under the glares of two very unamused teens. The white digimon bounced up and down happilly before hopping up on Takuyas head.

"I have a mommy and a daddy!"

Izumi, calmed from her laughing, patted the baby digimon on the head. "I'm Izumi. This is junpei, Tomoki and Kouichi. Whats your name?"

"I'm Calumon! Nice to meet you!"

"He's so cute!" she squeeled

Calumon hopped back into takuyas arms and made himself comfortable. "m'sleepy." he mumbled. "I'll sleep in mommys arms."

"Hey, guys?"

They looked at Kouichi. " Since when has a digimon hatched as an in-training? aren't they supposed to start out as fresh then digivolve?"

"Yeah. . .maybe we'll find out whats going on when we get to Ophonimons castle."

"I think youre right"

Takuya just stared, pretty much ignoring what wasbeing said at the moment, mouth opened wide as he tried to protest agaist being the things parent but the digimon was cute. . It was hard to argue with something like that. As the others contemplated and they continued on with their search for the trailmon, Kouji strolled up beside the brunette.

"Looks like we're unnofficial parents now eh?" Takuya asked, beaming at the ravenette. Kouji felt he should be given some kind of metal right then and there for restraining himself against jumping his positively clueless boyfriend . .that was what they were now right? yeah, as he said, for not jumping his boyfriend. The smile the brunette gave him was absolutly adorable and he was loosing self control.

"I guess so." The ravenette smiled back leaning in to give Takuya a small peck on the lips, loving how it made the leaders face turn red " I dont mind though."

"you know what? Neither do I"

--

It was a few days later when they found themselves staring in awe at the large, pristine lake infront of them. They had been cutting through a fair sized forest, hoping it was some kind of short cut, when Izumi, along with Calumon ventured ahead of them slightly. Moments later they had ran back excited and pulled the others to their new discovery.

They all looked at Takuya expectantly.

"what?" he asked dencely

"well, can we stop here for the day?" Izumi asked "We've been walking for days and have gotten no where. I think we all deserve a little day off right?"

"Well. . . . "He smiled "yeah. I think we do.Okay! We'll set up camp here for the night."

Izumi and Junpei gave a whoop of cheer and ran down towards the lake. "Time for swimming!"

"Hey!" Takuya ran after them "Wait for me! I want to swim too!"

"Same here! Same here!"

Kouji sighed and shook his head, finding a nice tree to sit under and watch the others. His brother flopped down next to him with a sigh.

"this is relaxing ne?"

"hn"

"So. . you and Takuya finally worked things out. thats good."

The younger twin rose an eyebrow "You knew the entire time didnt you?"

Kouichi grinned "I might have"

"How?"

"Oh come on Kouji. The looks you guys gave eachother back when we were in the digi world the first time through, the way you constantly waited for Takuyas call when he said hed call you, that jealous look youd give whenever Izumi got to close to him. . . " Kouichis smile got wider "And since I'm the straight twin, it was inevitable that you'd be the gay one"

Kouji blinked, processing what his brother just said before he frowned "What the hell? how does that make sence?"

"It happens to be common knowledge that one twin turns out gay, and the other turns out straight" he laughed "unless thats just the case with us"

"you. . . are so weird. . ."

"I know!"

"Come on you guys! Come swim with us!"

Kouichi smiled and nodded but kouji shook his head, he prefered watchig the others then joining in. Besides, he wanted as log as he could to take in the sight before him. Takuya had tossed aside his hat and goggles and removed his shirt so he could swim around easier in just his black cargos. The ravenette was grateful that the other teen played so much sports. He was fit and tanned and had very, very nice abs for a fifteen year old. The brunette caught Kouji staring at him and waved a little, a slight blush on his cheeks. When Kouji merely smirked, Takuya felt himself blush more and turn away flustered.

'damnit. when did I start acting like such a girl?' he thought, glancing shyly at the long haired teen. The look he recieved in return made his face go red and he distracted himself with tackling Tomoki into the water.

Kouji watched him intently before sighing and lying dow under the shade of the tree. He sort of wished Takuya had sat out with him instead of goofig off with the others. Watching Takuya shirtless made him think very,very bad thoughts about the brunette and he needed to distract himself.

Sleep seemed to be the best option.

He kicked off his shoes and closed his eyes. He was tired from all that walking. . . a little nap wouldnt hurt.

--

'hmmm' Kouji surveyed the area. It was nothing but black. A realm of darkness he thought in a less then amused tone. 'what the hell is this?'

It took a moment but he could slowly make out the forn of another there with him, sitting by himself, head buried in his hands as he rocked back and forth slightly.

'what have I done. . .what have I done. . . what have i done' was repeated from the lone figure.

With a frown, Kouji slowly made his way over, he made the sudden realisation that he reckognized the mop of brown of hair belonging to the broken figure.

'takuya?'

No responce, just the same line over and over.

'Takuya? what are you talking about?'

'he cant hear you warrior of light'

'who're you?' Kouji growled, not liking this new voice. The takuya infront of him let out a sob and hugged himself, now repeating 'sorry' over and over.

'That is none of your concern. I am here to tell you to move along and forget the warrior of flame. He will soon be mine '

'in your dreams'

Kouji could practically hear the smile from this unknown person.

'little by little he his slipping away. All I need is more time and I will have him. Such a wonderful toy he makes.'

'Stay away fom him!'

'You are delaying my plan but no matter, the outcome is enevitable and he will be mine.'

Kouji's eyes widened as Takuya was suddenly surrounded by flames. The brunette turned to him, eyes wide with fear as he suddenly tried to reach out.

'K-kouji! please. . please help me'

'Takuya! Hold on!'

He tried his hardest to run tot he brunette, reaching out as well. The flames increased and flashed brightly until it returned to nothingness, the brunette no where in sight.

'. . you. . . . .save. . . .him . '

--

Kouji shot up, suddenly awake from his dream. He looked around frantically as he tried to catch his breath. What the hell was that? It was like. . some kind of warning. . . He had never had a dream like that.

"Kouji? Are you okay?" Came a sleepy voice next to him. He blinked, now realising just how dark it was outside. He was still underneath his tree of choice, the others not too far away. His brother, who was on watch, was watching him silently from his spot ear the fire. Kouji shook his head and looked at the brunette who was now sitting up next to him.

Kouji's eyes widened as Takuya was suddenly surrounded by flames. The brunette turned to him, eyes wide with fear as he suddenly tried to reach out.

'K-kouji! please. . please help me'

"Kouji?"

The ravenette lunged forward, capturing the tired brunettes lips with his, kissing him desperatly. Takuya let out a mewl of approval as kouji pulled him closer, pulling him onto his lap as he seeked entrance into the leaders mouth. The brunette was on the verge of purring when Kouji finally decided to pull away, resting his head on Takuyas bare shoulder.

"Kouji? whats wrong?"

"Its nothing." he mumbled, pulling Takuya into a lying position with him. His mate cuddled up against Koujis chest like he usually did at night "Just a bad dream"

"well, I'm here now " Takuya smiled "I'll keep those dreams away"

With a smirk, Kouji ran his fingers through Takuyas hair, lulling the boy back to sleep. 'I'm sure you will moron"

"I'm. . not. . a. . moron. . minamoto. . ."

The brunette drifted into a peaceful sleep but Kouji lied there with a frown on his face. His dream still plaguing him. He had the sudden feeling, as he stroked his sleeping boyfriends hair, that something was going to happen. Something that none of them had faced before and that something, he kew for a fact, involved his takuya and he would not stand for it.

Shaking off the feeling as best he could, he wrapped his arms around Takuya protectively and drifted of into sleep, the final words from his dream echoing in his mind,

'please, you must save him'

Okies! first off, like to apologize to all of the twins i the world for kouichis ideals on twins. I'm pretty sure it doesnt work that way but I wanted to do it anyways.

Secondly, for those of you that have noticed, i used calumon as the digimon that hatched from the egg (no shit sherlock eh?) anyhizzle, I was reading through the different digimon and Calumon, who appeared in season three, Digimon Tamers; had a neat ability that I plan on using later on in the fic (NO PEAKING.) plus hes just too damn cute to pass up.

Well, I hope yall ejoyed this latest chapter. It was kinda pointless at first but meh, whatever. XDD READ AND REVIEW XDDD
