Descent into Darkness

Prologue

---

Jun Motomiya was obviously attempting not to smile as she surveyed the scene before her. Seeing her brother and his friends emerge from a computer screen and land in a pile on the floor must have been surprising but apparently she thought that they looked funny. Daisuke was babbling an explanation at her that didn't cover the fact he'd just emerged from a computer even though Takeru was pretty sure she'd seen it. He must have been right because she folded her arms and raised an eyebrow.

"And this gibberish explains what you were doing coming out of the computer's monitor how?"

"Uhhh!" Daisuke said. He obviously hadn't realised that she'd see that bit.

"Rats!" said Taichi. "We'll have the tell her the truth and hope she doesn't blab."

"Hey!"

Her attentiveness during the explanation surprised Takeru given her ditzy reputation but apparently Jun did care about her brother in reality and risked nothing in relation to her little brother. The stories he'd from the guys at school about Daisuke's crazy and overprotective sister suddenly seemed possible. Apparently she watched out for him a lot even if he did hate her sometimes. Takeru wondered if she'd known that something was going on. As she smiled down at Demi-veemon it seemed quite possible.

"So you're alive?" She sounded amused and curiously calm about all this.

"Yep." The little blue digimon grinned back at her.

"Oh, good. I was beginning to worry about my brother's sanity. I mean still being attached to a plushie at his age. Definitely not normal."

"What were you doing here anyway?" Daisuke asked.

"I was worried about you." She replied. "You might be an uncute brat but I do notice when you're missing. I thought your friends might know where you were."

"Got more than you expected didn't you?" He grinned.

She just nodded. "I don't think we should tell Mom and Dad about this."

"Probably not." He agreed. "Even it wasn't supposed to be a secret I don't think they'd react well."

The doctors had insisted that Hikari had a CT scan because of the knock she'd received to her head and had kept her in for observation in case of complications since she'd been unconscious for some time. She was lying in bed waiting for her parents to arrive so she could reassure them that she was okay but the pain medication they had given her was making her drowsy. She was just about to doze off when her mother came running into the ward.

"Kari, honey, are you alright? We were so worried. What happened?"

"I don't remember much. I must have fallen." Hikari had agreed on a simple lie with Jyou. The simple one's were less likely to be found out. "Taichi's friend Jyou found me and bought me here but I'm okay. I've got a broken arm and I think that I shook up my brains a little. They've taken a scan just check that I actually have one." She grinned as her mother chuckled at that. "Where's Dad?"

"He's talking to the doctor. Are you sure that you're okay? You've never been very strong and you seem a little hazy."

"They gave me some medicine for the pain. It's making me a little sleepy but I'm fine. Honestly."

"If you're sleepy you should sleep. Your father won't mind."

"Okay. Thanks." Hikari closed her eyes and dozed off.

Ken was still wondering what he was going to say to his parents as he stood outside his own front door and knocked hesitantly. When his mother opened it she stared at him for a moment before whispering. "Ken?" She sounded like she didn't quite believe her eyes.

"Mom," he said quietly. "I'm sorry that I ran way but I needed space to think and now we need to talk."

"Ken!" She said in a louder voice and pulled him into a hug. "We were so worried about you!" She let him go and ushered him inside. "And I know that we need to talk, dear, you wouldn't have run away if there wasn't a serious problem." She headed for the phone. "I'll just call your father and the police and let them know that you've come back. Everyone will be so relieved that you're all right. Do you want to wait for your father before we have this talk?"

"I need to talk to both of you." Ken nodded. At least that would give him extra time to sort out how to explain he couldn't be his brother anymore.

"In the meantime would you like something to eat?"

"Yes, please."
