Kingdom Hearts Cyber Sleuth
Chapter 2: Kyoko Kuremi
Sora fell onto a sidewalk, he was out of EDEN and in someplace different. The keybearer got up, and looked around.
Well, for one thing this place looked like the world he saw outside. The keyblade wielder looked back at where he escaped from the creature, it was a pay phone. Well this sure is a confusing world!
He was also back into his regular clothes.
But Sora then seen a dozen or so people looking at something. This had gotten the keybearer curious at what they were looking at, he wanted to know what it was.
There he saw it! Something made out of blue particles, kneeling down from pain. The creature looked at themself. Wondering in confusion.
Sora looked at the people, who were wondering what it was. The keybearer looked towards it, it seemed familiar somehow.
With one careful glance, he was surprised. It was Takumi! The keyblade master ran towards his new friend, despite people protesting not to go near him. "Takumi, are you alright?" Sora asked, worried about the teen despite just meeting him a few hours ago.
Despite not having eyes, Takumi looked up. Seeing Sora for the first time in outside EDEN. "Sora?... Where am I?" The young teen asked, voice sounding like an old television set.
"What's going on here!?" Called out a new voice, demand in the voice. Out appeared was a woman in police clothing yet looking like she belonged in a gang. "Thank goodness you're hear officer!" One of the civilians said, glad to see her.
Only for said officer to look at them with her look. "I'm a detective! Not a cop! She shouted, ranting a little. Something about books as Sora looked at her, she than looked at Sora and Takumi.
But when she saw Takumi's body, she froze in place. "What the..." She wondered, before screaming. "I'll.. I'm going to arrest you!" She called out, fumbling to get her handcuffs. Sora wanted her to help them, but she seemed the type to not listen to reason!
There was nothing they could do, except they all heard a car up ahead. It ran towards them, with the detective and other civilians running to safety. And the driver stopped right next to Sora and Takumi.
The driver opened the passenger door, revealing a woman with shoulder length blond hair, white shirt, a long black scarf, black skirt, and sunglasses on her forehead. "Need a lift?" The woman asked, Sora and Takumi did so and got on. The car getting away from the crowd. "Wait!" The angry woman called out, even if they were far from the scene. "You're still under arrest!"
Somewhere around town. Sora, Takumi and the woman were cruising in the city. The lady looked at them, Especially Takumi's look. "Thank you, for saving us." Takumi sadly thanked the woman, voice still distorted.
Sora wondered what happened to him. Did the creature get him? "It's no problem, I was just passing by." She told them, still curious about Takumi's state. Both Sora and Takumi wondered what she was thinking.
"My name is Kyoko Kuremi, in case you wanted to know my name." The woman introduced herself to the two passengers. "I'm Sora." The keyblade wielder introduced himself to Kyoko, "Takumi..." The digital teen did the same.
"You seem pretty interesting Takumi, what happened to you?" Kyoko asked Takumi, who was looking at his hands.
Takumi said that he, Arata and Nokia were invited to EDEN by a Mr Navit, and while exploring Kowloon, he met Sora and his Digimon Dorumon.
And after getting Nokia to find Arata, they encountered a mysterious creature. "And when Arata, Nokia and Sora escaped. I was the last one to try to escape it, I barely escaped and wound up like this." Takumi explained his digitized state.
Sora looked at the teen. So the creature did try to capture him! The keybearer looked at Kyoko again. "So, are you a detective?" He asked the woman, only to hear her laugh softly. "Indeed, I am." She told the keybearer, stopping at a mall's underground parking lot.
"Welcome to the Nakano shopping mall." Kyoko said to the duo, calling for the elevator. All of them entered, with Sora wondering what it looked like.
It didn't take long for Sora to wonder. The keybearer looked around in awe as he exited the elevator. There were many stores and restaurants the eye can see! But he still had to follow Kyoko to her place to find a way to fix Takumi's situation.
They all entered a place called the Kuremi Detective Agency, Kyoko entering first. Seeing as her last name is Kuremi, Takumi entering second and Sora was last. Closing the door for the meeting to begin
For one thing Sora noticed, the place sure was a bit messy! Sora and Takumi sat at a couch, while Kyoko sat at another one. Facing the keyblade master and digitized teen.
"You know Takumi, you're a very perticular looking client." Kyoko said, looking at Takumi's state. Even if he didn't have a face yet, Takumi was surprised at the detective. "But, ma'am. I don't have enough money to pay you!" He protested.
The detective softly laughed, then looked at him. "Don't worry about the pay, your look is all I need." She told him, curiously tilting her head.
"It certainly is curious, how your body became that." She said, seriousness in her voice. "Still, you don't seem to have the syndrome." The last part she said made Sora and Takumi curious, what syndrome?
"I'm very curious at what will lie ahead with this case though..." Kyoko told herself as she went to her desk, ready to start her new case. Sora noticed that Takumi stood up, heading to the T.V.
The Keyblade master stood up too, curious at why the digitized teen was looking at Kyoko's television set. "Huh? Is something wrong with my television set?" The detective asked, seeing Sora and Takumi staring at it.
Sora felt something familiar on his right hand, it was his Keyblade! He saw Takumi looking at it also. Kyoko was also looking at his weapon with curiosity also. The digitized teen raised his hand, Sora did the same with his keyblade also.
Without warning, the duo went into the television set. Not knowing where they were headed!
The keybearer screamed from surprise, heading into the unknown. Only to see EDEN up ahead! Sora looked surprise, flying to somewhere new. His EDEN clothing appeared on his body again. He was in front of what looked like the entrance of EDEN.
There were a dozen people there, along with an adorable looking robot floating. Sora walked towards the robot. Wondering what it was.
Whatever it was. It certainly would look like what Hiro's brother would build. The robot looked at the keybearer also.
"Hello, I am Mr. Navit. Having a nice time in EDEN?" The robot said, with a happiness expression on the monitor. Sora looked confused, was this the Mr Navit that Takumi and the others encountered?
"Do you need any questions?" The robot asked, changing expressions from happy to a couple of question marks. This made Sora even more puzzled, where was he suppose to go?
"I don't know, where is Kowloon?" He asked, giving an honest answer. "Kowloon? Oh, that place is filled with Hackers, you don't want to go there!" The robot told him. The keybearer groaned in frustration.
"Psst, hey dude!" A voice called out to him, Sora turned his head to see a shady looking guy in a blue hoodie. The keybearer reluctantly walked to the boy, seeing the insignia on his hood saying Zaxxon, Yuugo's Hacker team.
Sora was cautious around the dude, not knowing what was going to happen. "Ya wanna go to Kowloon right?" The boy asked Sora, who nodded his head. The kid held a hologram of some sort, just like Arata's before.
"Copy this URL, and you're there!" The hacker told him, Sora looked confused again. How is he going to do that? Just then, his keyblade appeared again. This time having a screen showing the URL to Kowloon.
The boy whistled at the sight of Sora's keyblade. "Well, that certainly matches a Hacker like you!" He told Sora, who laughed nervously. The boy told Sora to go to the platform to go to Kowloon, and he did. Flying through EDEN again!
Sora landed in Kowloon again, he looked around for a second. He was right next to a lamp post, surrounding him was a few playthings like a used teddy bear and a slide. He was in Kowloon, but where was Takumi?
"Sora!" He heard Takumi's Terriermon call out to him. He looked ahead, and smiled at seeing two familiar Digimon. Terriermon and Dorumon! Sora kneeled down, only to see Terriermon having a worried expression on his face.
"Where is Takumi?" Terriermon asked, wondering where the goggle headed teen was. "Don't worry, he'll be here!" He reassured Terriermon, although he wasn't sure at what the digimon would react to Takumi's current state.
O"Glad I found you guys." Takumi said, walking towards Sora and the two Digimon. "Takumi, I'm glad you're safe!" Sora called out, worried about the teen's current state. Terriermon noticed this, his partner in his current state.
Takumi waved at his Digimon, seeing him about to cry. "Takumi, I'm sorry!" Terriermon cried, running to his human and leaped to hug him. "Terriermon..." Takumi looked at his Digimon, petting his head.
"You guys still have that creature to worry about!" Dorumon shouted at them, feeling a little ignored. Sora looked at his Digimon, and apologized to him. "Whatever..." Dorumon muttered.
Sora, Dorumon and Terriermon listened to Takumi, who told them that some of his Avatar Parts were scattered from his escape from the creature. Sora and Terriermon were intrigued by this, while Dorumon was just simply bored.
"So, did Kyoko give that information to you?" Sora asked the teen, who nodded. "Yes, it's somewhere in the first floor of Kowloon." The digitized teen told them, pointing towards the entrance.
"Yay! Let's go." Terriermon gladly called out as they all headed to get some Avatar Parts for Takumi, Dorumon just sighed. He could careless about it, but with Sora being his partner. He just followed them, so they won't get into trouble again.
Sora, Takumi and their Digimon all looked around to find the Avatar Part. They looked around, and had gotten three of them so far. But Takumi wasn't looking better.
They all went to the dead end where they all saw the creature, luckily it wasn't there. And the latest Avatar Part was there. "Wow! There it is!" Sora shouted, running towards it.
Dispite the others' protest, Sora got there in time! Only to see something else at the scene. It looked like one of the Mr Navits Sora saw at EDEN. However, unlike the silver blue one back at EDEN, this one was black.
Takumi and the two Digimon stopped in place, as they saw the keybearer standing in place to see a Mr Navit under Takumi's Avatar Part. Sora grew cautious as he walked towards the robot.
The robot's head spun around a few times, surprising Sora. Who looked like he was going to summon his keyblade.
When the Mr Navit stopped spinning it's head, the keybearer saw something familiar on the screen. It was a Heartless emblem! It than opened a hatch on it's head, sucking in the Avatar Part!
Sora then summoned his Keyblade, ready to attack the heartless! Dorumon and Terriermon went right next to him and ready to help.
The Navit Heartless ran around in circles, creating statics of electricity around it. And then shot out a lightning ball, making Sora and the others dodge it in the nick of time! Dorumon lodged a few Metal Balls at it, knocking it's head off.
Of course, it got the head back on. Giving them an angry face on the monitor, Terriermon slapped it with his ears. Making the head spin again! And the monitor gave a dizzy face.
The heartless tried to attack Sora and the others a thunder bolt attack again. Only to have them dodge it again! Angry at this, the heartless ran straight to Sora. With him doing the same thing.
The heartless tried to attack Sora, only for the keybearer swing his keyblade upwards. Zeros and ones surrounding it now, the heartless was floating in midair! Sora looked at his keyblade, seeing some streams of data surrounding the blade.
The keyblade master somehow knew what to do, and pointed his keyblade to the creature of darkness. A ball of light shooting out of the tip, and blasting the heartless into oblivion!
The only thing standing there was Takumi's Avatar Part. Floating past Sora, and heading towards Takumi. The teen held his hands to his Avatar Part, a beam of light shot up around him.
Sora, Dorumon and Terriermon blocked their eyes from the light. And when the beam of light died down, they looked to see Takumi looking like his old self again! The goggle wearing teen was happy, seeing his old body back! "Takumi!" Terriermon cried out his name as he jumped in for a hug.
Takumi hugged his Digimon back, both of them laughing happily. "So, what was that just now?" Dorumon asked the keybearer, only for Sora to look away for a moment. "I don't really know..." He lied to his Digimon, still remembering the World Order.
Dorumon became suspicious at that answer, clearly Sora knew the question! But why would he lie? "Hey, Kyoko. Takumi here!" Takumi said, calling the detective. He informed her that he got the parts back, but had a little roadblock in the way.
"That's good, return to the agency pronto." She called to the two teens, who both agreed.
"See you, Terriermon." Takumi said, waving to him. "Come back soon!" Terriermon gladly said as he waved his ears. "See you too Dorumon!" Sora said to his Digimon, only to be met with Dorumon's eyes with suspicion.
Both humans logged off and heading back to the detective agency.
Takumi and Sora had a nice landing, glad to be in the real world again. "Congratulations." They heard Kyoko, looking pleased. Sora and Takumi bowed in respect.
"Cups of coffee for each of you, for a job well done!" She happily said, giving them two cups. The two of them grabbed it, but looking at it... Why is there Mayo in it?
"That is just to add in a flavour, it's for a job well done." She said, expecting them to taste it. So not to be rude, they gulped it a little. They shuttered, it certainly has a flavour.
"Thank you, but I still don't know how to repay you." Takumi apologized to Kyoko. The detective thought about something, and got an idea. "You can help me out with cases as my assistant." She told him, who looked in surprise.
She then looked at the keybearer, smiling at her answer. "And now you, Sora." She said as she crossed her arms. Sora wondered what she was gonna say.
"You're from another world. Aren't you?"
