BONUS CHAPTER #1
It was two years after the chosen children travelled to the digital world. They were all living their own lives. That day, Yamato and his band continued to rise in popularity. Sora and him are still together and are celebrating their two-year anniversary. Hikari and Takeru were cramming for their upcoming exams. They asked Daisuke to join them but he rejected saying that he was going to play soccer with Ken in Daisuke's school soccer field. Iori was at home training with his grandfather. Miyako was in the computer lab having a meeting. Jou was taking his college entrance exam and wasn't able to meet with the others for a long time. Everyone was basically separated at most but they do meet once in a while for special occasions. As for Taichi, he was free most of the time. For his first two years in high school, he was named captain of his soccer club so he practices with them daily. But after that he wouldn't have anything to do. He'd clean the house when he's bored then sleep afterwards. But even though, he wasn't really depressed. After school he went to practice with the soccer club.
"Hi coach!" Taichi said running towards his soccer coach.
"Oh Taichi! I thought you wouldn't come!" his coach said.
"I'm the captain of the club! Why wouldn't I come!" Taichi laughed. An older club member walked towards Taichi and threw a soccer ball at him. Taichi grabbed the soccer ball and kicked it back.
"Hey captain! Hurry up we're about to start the next game!" he said.
"Yeah I'm coming!" Taichi was about to run towards them when a phone rang. The coach picked up his phone and answered it.
"Hello… oh I see… of course I'll come! All right, don't worry I'll be there soon… Okay bye." The coach put back his phone in his pocket.
"Sorry Taichi, I have to go somewhere important. I guess practice is over for today."
"No way, how about I coach the others for a while?" Taichi said begging.
"No. The principal got angry at me the last time that happened. Even though you could handle training the club by yourself, it's not going to happen. Forgive me Taichi."
"It's all right coach. I understand. Plus, I really don't want to train knowing it would be giving you trouble." Taichi said still depressed.
The practice was over before Taichi could even play a game. He changed his clothes and left. On his way, he ended up in front of Hikari and the others school.
"Oh yeah. I was supposed to meet up with Hikari here. This is going to be one long wait considering the practice was cancelled. It isn't even that late, how many hours should I wait? What should I do?" Taichi said moping. Then he heard a very familiar sound.
Someone's playing soccer… I wonder who it is?
Taichi thought as he ran to the soccer field. Upon reaching the field, he saw none other than Daisuke and Ken playing.
"Daisuke! Ken!" Taichi yelled. The two stopped playing and looked at the person who called their names. "Ah! Taichi! What are you doing here?" Ken said.
"Don't you have practice today?" Daisuke said.
Taichi shook his head. "Our practice was cancelled before I could even play. I heard someone playing here so I thought of checking it out."
Daisuke and Ken exchange glances and grabbed Taichi pulling him in the field. "What the heck was that for?" Taichi said.
"Taichi! Can you keep score with our game! Ken keeps saying his score is too far from mine and I don't believe it!"
"I wasn't cheating! It was the truth!"
Taichi chuckled for a moment and agreed. "You'll see Taichi! I've gotten better ever since the last time I played with Ken!"
"Alright! Let me see it!" Taichi said as they began playing. After the game, Taichi said the score. 3 Daisuke, 8-Ken.
"I lost! No way!" Daisuke said. "I've also gotten better than before Daisuke! Don't underestimate me." Ken said.
"Forgive me Taichi…" Daisuke said.
"Huh? Forgive you for what? You did your best didn't you?"
"Yeah."
"Then there's nothing to be sorry about! All you can do now is train harder and get better!" Taichi said. Daisuke smiled at his former club captain and nodded in agreement.
"There's still a long wait before I'm supposed to meet up with Hikari. How about another game? Or are you two tired?" Taichi said.
"No way! I'm still pumped! How about you Ken?" Daisuke asked his friend next to him. "Yeah. I haven't played like this for a while so it's really fun!"
"Alright then! Let's start another round!" Daisuke and Ken ran towards the field when Taichi stopped them.
"Taichi?" Ken said.
"I didn't say you two were the only ones playing." Taichi said standing up.
"Whoah! Taichi you're going to play with us?" Daisuke said.
"Yeah! I haven't played soccer today so this is a good training."
Daisuke was so excited to play with him. "Are you okay with this Ken?" Taichi asked.
Ken nodded. "I haven't played with you yet Taichi but I have beaten people older than you."
Ken smiled encouraged to play. They began playing. Ken got the ball immediately and kicked it to the goal but Taichi suddenly appeared in front of him and hit the ball with his chest and ran towards the other goal. Daisuke ran towards Taichi and tried to kick the ball away from him but he lifted the ball with his feet and jumped over Daisuke. Taichi ran to the goal and was about to kick when Ken appeared in front of him.
"I got you know Taichi!" Ken said and he guarded the goal area. Taichi grinned and kicked the soccer ball upwards and jumped. Taichi kicked the soccer ball and scored a point.
"That's one point for me." Taichi said looking at the two who were in shock.
"That's amazing Taichi!" Daisuke said. They continued playing the game. Taichi was the one to get the ball first and scored another goal in mere seconds. It was about half an hour by then. Daisuke and Ken were breathing deeply.
"Are you guys done?" Taichi said. They looked at Taichi who didn't look at all tired.
"I think we need to take a break for now, Taichi." Daisuke said.
"Alright. So I guess the game is over." Taichi said and placed the ball on the bench. They were all sitting down. Daisuke and Ken were drinking some water while Taichi was taking off his school jacket.
"I forgot I wasn't using my soccer uniform. Now it's all dirty. Mom's going to get angry again." Taichi said. Then Daisuke looked at Taichi. "You've gotten pretty strong Taichi."
Taichi looked at him. "Really? Thanks Daisuke!"
"Your club must be strong if you are." Ken said.
"It is but… for students who are about to go to college, they don't seem to have trained any harder than they wanted to ever since I became leader."
"Are you saying you're the youngest member of the group Taichi?" Daisuke said.
"Yeah. Apparently before I came, no new members would want to join the club because they couldn't defeat them. After they graduate, I'm going to change that. Since I'm going to be the only one left in the club, I'm going to make our team win until we reach the nationals so we can easily get new club members. I'm going to build up a new team and change everything. But I don't know if I could even get new members to join after what happened."
Daisuke and Ken looked at Taichi inspired and motivated.
"I know you could do it Taichi!" Daisuke said.
"Daisuke's right Taichi."
"How are you guys that sure?" Taichi asked.
"Because! You're the leader of the chosen children! If you can lead all ten of us, then you can build up a new team!" Daisuke said.
"You're a leader too you know Daisuke. Don't put all the responsibility on me." Taichi said as he stood up. "Thank you for the game. It was really fun! Wait… what was the score again?" Ken started counting back but stopped and sighed. "The points don't really matter…"
"Haha! But still, you two have gotten better. I know you'll do great in the future."
They laughed. "Don't worry Taichi! We'll get better and we'll be greater!" Daisuke said.
"Yeah!" Ken said
"That's the spirit you two!"
"Taichi! There you are!" Hikari said yelling at them.
"Well, I'm off! Are you guys coming with too?" Taichi asked.
They nodded and followed Taichi as they walked out of the school with Hikari and Takeru.
