Love's True Destiny
Part 5


Darkness....darkness...darkness...Everywhere Sora turned there was only darkness. The battle with Mephistopheles was coming closer and closer with the passing of each hour and with every minute that passed the darkness consuming Sora's mind gained more ground.


"Sora what are we going to do?" queried Biyomon, looking at her friend with concern.


"I don't know yet Biyomon. Izzy is going to get us some information on Mephistopheles so we can find his weakness......Bi?"

"Yes Sora?"


"What will we do if we don't find a way to beat him? I don't want to let everyone down but I'm...scared. I don't want to die Bi! I don't want everyone to hate me! Why does this have to happen when everything finally starts going right!?" suddenly the girl burst into tears, letting her repressed emotions get the best of her.


Her partner could think of no reply so she sat beside her friend and quietly said, "It's ok to be scared Sora. Don't worry no one will hate you and even if everyone in the world does you'll still have me. Remember we're friends forever Sora, and I'll always love you."


The only response Biyomon got was a sniffle and a whispered, "Bi, I hope you're right."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Izzy looked at the computer screen with a pale face. He had gotten the information on Mephistopheles but what he had found was not at all encouraging.


"Well Izzy what did you find out?" asked Matt solemnly.


"It's not good news...." replied the youth.


"Don't just sit there Izzy! TELL US!!" cried Tai anxiously.


"Mephistopheles is a Supreme being. Apparently he is a very elusive being who's true form is unknown. He has no known goal, such as taking over the Digiworld, yet lives only to bring pain to those existing in both worlds. His attacks are also unknown because all that have witnessed them are deceased. It is rumored that this being had fallen in love at one time when he was still young but his lover passed away and he was left bitter. Just like he told Sora, he isn't a digimon or a human, very much like Gennai. According to this file he can be reconfigured like digimon and evolves at a remarkable pace! The last thing it says is that he is undetectable by the forces of light and that fighting him is like trying to fight death."


The digidestined stood, scattered about the room, speechless. Matt gripped Sora's hand tighter in his own, wishing he could help her fight. Tears sprung to most everyone's eyes as they realized that they may lose Sora for good.


"Wait! I have an idea!"proclaimed an excited Yolei. "Izzy said that Mephistopheles supposedly fell in love at one time. Well who better to help him heal than the holder of the Crest of Love!" she quieted down before continuing, "Or if she can catch him off guard for a minute by bringing that up, although that would be pretty heartless, she might just be able to win."


"Hey that's a great idea! Now all we have to do is let Sora know what we do and she'll be all set! She is a digidestined, after all, and we can defeat anything if we try hard enough!" exclaimed Davis.


"I usually wouldn't agree with hurting someone like that but he may be better off talking about it so it's a win-win situation." commented Mimi.


During this clamor Joe stepped forward to check Sora's stats only to find that she was getting no better. Takeru noticed this and said, "Well if we're going to tell her we should now. She needs all the time she can get to prepare for this battle. We can't let her down! She's always been there for us and its about time we were there for her!"


Kari and Cody, who were the only ones that actually heard what Takeru had said, turned to look at him and saw an expression of pain and desperation upon his features.


Then Kari asked the question that brought everyone back to attention, pulled Izzy away from the laptop, made Joe stop checking the vitals, and caused Tai and Matt to turn their focus from Sora, for the first time in days. "If there is a stage beyond the Mega then how come Azulongmon didn't tell us about it. I mean after all he protects the light but is only a Mega himself."


"......" The question hung in the air for a few moments before a quiet voice answered it.


"Maybe he thought we needed to reach that stage and then learn about it." hypothesized Cody.


"Hmm...I think this is something we should also look up. It could be a threat to the digimon, digivolving to the Supreme level."replied Izzy before continuing to tap away at the keys of the laptop.


"According to the information I located only two creatures were ever reported as reaching the supreme stage. One is Mephistopheles as we all know, and the other was....Suzaku!"


"Wait a minute. You mean the Phoenix. When I was in Kyoto Sora's dad and your brother, Joe, Jim told me that the four guardians of the north, east, south and west were Genbu, Seriyuu, Suzaku, and Biyakko. But we already met the digimon that is called Seriyuu. It was Azulongmon."


"Hey you said 'was' Suzaku! Is it possible that Suzaku didn't survive?"


"Precisely Mimi. This file tells me that Suzaku was the only other being to successfully evolve to the Supreme level but she used up too much energy during a battle and was deleted completely."


"That would explain why Azulongmon didn't tell us about the Supreme level. It's too dangerous for anything to evolve to that level and victoriously finish a huge battle." remarked Takeru.


"And now Sora is going to have to have Biyomon digivolve to it and possibly put herself in danger." came the remark form Tai.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sora pondered the news uneasily. She would either have to open a raw wound for Mephistopheles or she would have to find a way to match his power.


"You are still unprepared, Maiden of Love. Very well I shall come again tomorrow at the same hour. Then we shall do battle whether or not you are ready for it." rasped a voice around Sora.


No matter how many chills he sent up her spine Sora knew she did not have the will to break his heart over again even if he was determined to destroy her. *No I have to. It's the only way. It's either him or me...and I won't lose to someone evil! But what if he beats us? I'm going to die...I don't want to! I have so much more to live for! I wasn't born just to help the digiworld then die! It's not fair!*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "She is almost ready Suzaku. It is indeed horrible that you must once again lose your chance to stay with us. Soon you will exist again but if you continue the fight you may lose. The Child of Love is strong enough to summon you in her time of need but I wonder. Will you be strong enough to defeat the evil and still live?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The waiting was terrible. Most of the newer digidestined had left the hospital, unwillingly, to join their families for dinner. Takeru sat in the hospital room with his brother. Tai had decided to take Kari home since she looked tired. He would be back soon and would probably wait outside the room just as Matt had the previous night.


Takeru needed comfort now but the one person that could give it to him wasn't conscious to do so. Tears had streamed down the young boy's cheeks all that day and the previous one too. His every thought brought him back to the despair that clutched his heart. The girl that had taken care of him and Kari when they were little was now being taken care of by them. Takeru rose to leave before his own mother became worried. As he left he glanced at his brother only to find no expression upon his famous face. It frightened him to see his brother acting like he had so long ago and he hoped it wasn't going to last for long.


When Takeru left Matt to his thoughts, they immediately went to the girl on the bed in front of him. He knew that he had waited too long to tell her what he truly thought of her but as the saying goes...better late than never right? Matt approached the laptop and held his digivice to it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*You are preparing yourself Suzaku. I can feel your power stirring in the air. This time I shall make sure you're soul does not survive long enough to produce a descendant. The girl will be mine this time. I shall not let you steal her from me now as you did so long ago. You ensured your victory last time by taking her with you but now that she is back I will not lose her again. Soon. Soon her mind, heart, and body will be mine because I deserve her and you deserve the pain and torment you shall feel gripping your heart. It will choke you and make your days a living hell. Then you will know how I have lived and you will feel what I have felt for so long it seems like eternity. I shall live in the paradise I have longed for soon. All in due time.*
