Chapter Twenty Two
I don't own Digimon or X-Men
A convoy of cars were heading along a road and between the cars was a massive semi-trailer and inside the trailer were several cells housing criminals and the guard was walking down the length of it towards one of the cells. "Let me out of here, I demand that you release me, do you know who I am? I am the president of the United States," The prisoner said which was the president who was chained to the roof of the cell.
"Oh Mr President. Shut up!" The guard told him. He then turned around only to hear sobbing.
"Why are you doing this to me? Let me down, I'll be a good girl. Please let me go," The guard turned to see a little girl sobbing, thee guard sighed and he took out some pepper spray.
"Keep it up, I'll spray you in the face bitch," He told the girl.
"When I get out of here. I am going to kill you myself," The girl promised the guard.
"Good luck with that," He replied as the girl turned back into Mystique who was smirking. Meanwhile Hank was in a helicopter that was heading towards Alcatraz Island and the site of Worthington Labs and the helicopter landed and he climbed out as he met a woman who was there waiting for him.
"Secretary McCoy. Welcome to Worthington Labs," She greeted him.
"Thank you Dr. Rao." Hank said. "Not an easy place to get to," He said as the two of them entered the labs.
"It's the safest location we could find. Which is why we house the source of the cure here," Rao answered him.
"He is a mutant. You do understand our concerns," Hank said to her.
"We are in full compliance with your department's laws," Rao told him.
"How long will you keep the boy here," Hank asked.
"Until we can fully map his DNA, we can replicate it but we can't generate it," Rao informed him.
"And his power, what is it?" Hank asked.
"You'll find out," Rao answered him as she pressed a button and a door opened to aa white room where a young bald boy was playing video games. "Jimmy, there is someone I would like you to meet," Rao said making the boy turn to look at Hank.
"Hello there son," Hank said walking towards the boy.
"Hi," Jimmy replied.
"My name is Hank McCoy," Hank said holding his hand out which suddenly lost all its fur and the claws making Hank looked at it shocked.
"Sorry," Jimmy said.
"It's okay. You have an amazing gift," Hank told the boy who smiled at him as Hank walked back to Rao and his hand turned back to normal.
"Extraordinary isn't he?" Rao asked him.
"Yes," Hank answered as they left Jimmy's room. Takato was walking through the mansion looking for Daisuke when he entered her room.
"Hey Daisuke are you in…here," He said before he realised that Daisuke was missing. "Daisuke?" He asked looking around the room. "Where is she?" He asked himself.
"Where's who?" Mizu asked him and he nearly jumped out of his skin.
"Don't scare me like that. And Daisuke's missing. I can't find her anywhere," He answered his sister.
"Well where could she be?" Mizu asked him before her eyes widened. "You don't think…" She said.
"What that she took the cure? I don't think Daisuke would act that rashly," Takato said.
"Hey guys," Both turned to see Bobby walking up to them.
"Bobby, you seen Daisuke anywhere?" Takato asked him.
"She left a few hours ago. Said something about business to take care of in Japan, maybe she's visiting her family or something," He suggested.
"No way would she visit family, not after her parents tried to lock her up," Mizu said.
"Well then I don't know why she went back," Bobby said before he walked away leaving the twins alone.
"We need to find her," Takato said and Mizu nodded as they walked off. Meanwhile back in Japan Daisuke was walking towards Tai's family apartment and Daisuke knocked on the door.
"One moment," Tai's voice called out and the door opened up and Tai looked at Daisuke and he smiled in relief. "Daisuke, oh thank god you're here," He said hugging Daisuke who hugged him back.
"Tai, who is it honey?"
"It's Daisuke mom," Tai said and Tai's parents walked to the door.
"Hey Mr and Mrs. Kamiya," Daisuke greeted them.
"Daisuke, it's so good to see you. We're sorry about what happened to you, and we want you to know you're always welcome here," Tai's mother told her and she nodded.
"Thank you. Tai called me and said something was wrong with Kari," Daisuke asked.
"Of course. Come on in," Tai's mother said and Daisuke walked into the apartment. "We don't know what to do. Kari's been acting so strange and behaving differently, we can't call the police on our own daughter and Tai mentioned you knew someone who can help her," She said and Daisuke nodded.
"That's right. But first, tell me when Kari starting acting like this, and your firsthand experiences," Daisuke told them.
"Well, it started a few months ago. I went into Kari's room because she had been quiet the whole day and didn't come out of her room at all, then I saw objects floating around her and it was like she was meditating. When I called to her the objects dropped and she glared at me with such anger that I've never seen from her, the door then slammed in my face without Kari even touching it," Mrs. Kamiya explained.
"So she has telekinetic powers then," Daisuke thought to herself. "Go on," She said.
"After what my wife told me, I went in and I was almost immediately thrown out of the room and the door slammed behind me," Mr Kamiya continued.
"Mom and Dad then told me about it and I went inside Kari's room and tried to talk to her and she listened to me albeit it looked like she wanted to throw me out of the room as well, I asked her what was going on with her but she just answered that nothing was wrong with her and things in the room started to shake and float. When I walked up to her to try and calm her down but I was thrown into a wall, and then out of the room but not before I saw the objects floating around her atomize instantly," Tai finished.
"Atomized?" Daisuke asked.
"I asked Izzy what it meant. It means to reduce something to atoms," Tai answered.
"I see. Look I'll talk to Kari if I can, and try to convince her to let some people I know help her control her powers. For all I know she could be in control of her powers, or they are somehow controlling her," Daisuke suggested.
"Do what you can Daisuke, please for Kari." Tai said and Daisuke nodded and she walked towards Kari's room and she walked inside the room and saw several objects floating in circles around Kari who was in the middle of the room.
"What do you want now? I told you leave me alone," Kari said.
"Kari. It's me. It's Daisuke," Daisuke said slowly approaching her friend who opened her eyes and looked at the mahogany haired girl who gasped as she saw Kari's eyes were completely black with a fire burning in the centre of them.
"Oh Daisuke, finally decided to grace your friends with your presences again," Kari said.
"Kari, that's not fair. I had no choice in the matter of leaving you all behind, but I had to do it. For everyone's safety," Daisuke told Kari who scoffed.
"Sure. Keep telling yourself Daisuke," She said.
"Kari, listen to me. This power of yours, you need to control it. I can help you with that," Daisuke said kneeling down to look at Kari.
"Help me? How?" Kari asked her.
"I know a lot of people who are like us; mutants. And they can help you control your powers, The Professor can help you," Daisuke said and Kari's eyes widened before she was covered in a bright orange aura and Daisuke was thrown violently through the wall.
"I don't want help!" Kari shouted before the window in her room atomized and she flew off out the window.
"Kari!" Daisuke shouted as her injuries from being thrown through the wall healed up and she ran back into Kari's room and out the hole after her friend who had landed on the ground and she followed Kari who was walking through the street and any car that neared her was violently crushed and thrown away from her, Kari then entered the park and Daisuke followed. "Kari! Stop!" She shouted but Kari did not listen as trees themselves uprooted and were thrown towards Daisuke. But she rolled under one tree before she fired an optic blast at the tree shattering it into splinters.
"Do not stop me!" Kari shouted at Daisuke as she stood in a clearing.
"Kari, you're my friend. I don't want to hurt you," Daisuke tried to reason with Kari.
"Shame. Because I want to hurt you!" Kari shouted as her hair became fiery orange and a fiery aura surrounded her.
"Kari, no!" Daisuke shouted before she was slammed into a tree and she groaned. "I didn't want to do this," She said regretfully as her body became covered in organic steel, she then uprooted a tree and she threw it at Kari, the tree suddenly stopped in mid-air as it atomized into nothingness. "Oh come on," Daisuke groaned as she ran towards Kari who looked at her and Daisuke's organic steel atomized and Daisuke's body started to atomize as well.
"Wolverine's Adamantium Skeleton and Healing Factor activated," The voice in Daisuke's head said quickly and Daisuke's body that was atomising started to heal itself up instantly.
"Kari! Stop it!" She shouted at her friend who was glaring at Daisuke. Daisuke groaned as she stepped slowly towards Kari and as she did the aura around Kari's body started to intensify and a golden aura started to appear around her body as well. "What the?" She thought but before she could think any further a massive explosion happened engulfing Kari and Daisuke. Xavier meanwhile gasped as everyone in the mansion heard a noise. Logan ran down the stairs as did Cyclops and Jean.
"What happened!?" Logan asked as Storm, Mizu, Yuriko and Takato ran up.
"No clue!" Yuriko answered him as the X-Men ran to the Professor's office.
"Professor are you okay?" Cyclops asked him.
"Get to Japan. Daisuke's in trouble," Xavier told them worrying everyone. Soon the X-Jet was flying towards Japan and soon landed nearby where Daisuke and Kari were.
"I hope Daisuke's okay," Takato said as everyone disembarked the jet and saw the whole area covered in smoke.
"I can't see anything," Logan said.
"Storm, can you clear this up?" Cyclops asked her.
"Sure," She replied as her eyes became cloudy and the smoke blew away, the X-Men all gasped as they saw splinters, rocks, leaves and other objects floating around.
"Whoa," Mizu said as she flicked a rock and it went flying away.
"What could have done this?" Yuriko asked.
"I think it's more who did this," Jean said as everyone walked slowly through the park.
"Spread out," Cyclops said and everyone did so as they searched for Daisuke.
"GUYS!" Mizu shouted and everyone ran towards her and they saw Daisuke on the ground unconscious covered in injuries.
"Daisuke!" Takato shouted running towards her in worry, Daisuke groaned as she opened her eyes slowly before sitting up. "Are you alright?" He asked her.
"Yeah. I'm fine," She answered as the injuries on her body healed up slowly.
"What happened kid?" Logan asked her.
"I was here because a friend told me about something that was going on with….Kari!" Daisuke suddenly exclaimed.
"Over here!" Yuriko shouted and Daisuke ran over to see Kari levitating in the air unconscious.
"Kari," She said running over to her friend.
"She's fine Daisuke. Just unconscious, we should get her back to the mansion," Jean said and Daisuke nodded and Cyclops grabbed Kari in his arms and carried her back to the jet with the rest of the X-Men following them.
