Love's True Destiny

Part 8

*I can feel it. Your time draws closer and closer. With her every doubt your strength is lost and mine increases. Not much longer and she'll hear your cries for mercy. My curses will take effect and you will feel the pain I've felt.*

"Ken, what are you doing?" asked the little insect digimon

"I told you what I heard from Takeru and Kari right?" when Wormmon nodded the young genius continued, "well I'm going to try and find out if anyone knows more about Mephistopheles' past or his weaknesses. I've concluded that an evil digimon would probably be our best source for information."

"But I thought Mephistopheles killed all digimon, not only good ones. Besides how are you going to get them to tell you?"

"Well, I think that he would favor bad digimon over good ones, and I was hoping you would be able to help me get the information I need."

"It's worth a try! Of course I'll help Ken!"

"Thanks Wormmon. Now let's get going. Digiport open!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Sora....Sora?"

"Yes, TK?"

Takeru smiled at that. Sora was the only one that continued to call him TK. It was a reminder of what she was and always would be to him. He insisted everyone else should stop using his childish nickname but he made an exception for Sora. She had earned the right to continue to call him that since she had been a mother to him in the digiworld.

"I have something for you. I know there isn't much that we can do but I hope this helps..."

"What is it, TK?"

"It's a bracelet. Everyone chipped in so we could buy it. I know we don't have our crests anymore but I hope these help you."

He then clasped the bracelet on Sora's limp wrist. "It has all our crests on it, Light to help you see in the darkness, Hope to help you believe, Sincerity so you know you are being true to yourself, Reliability so you know you can depend on us, Knowledge so you know how to defeat your enemies, Kindness to help you remember how you have treated everyone and how much we care about you, Courage to have the bravery to never backdown from the fight, Friendship so you know your friends believe in you, and Love to symbolize your love and our love for you."

"TK! That's so sweet of you guys!" cried Sora "I won't let you down!" she replied to reassure both herself and her friend.

"I know there isn't much time left before you have to fight Mephistopheles so I just want to let you know how much you mean to me. You've always been there for me when I needed you so please don't give up, Sora. Believe in yourself. I want you to be here for a long time!"

"I want to be there too, TK. I won't give up. I promise. TK, you look tired. It's because you've been talking to me for so long isn't it?"

"I'm ok, Sora. Don't worry about it."

"No, TK! I don't want you to spend your energy like this. As much as I want to keep talking to you I won't let you tire yourself out, especially since you could be needed later." replied Sora, adamantly.

"But Sora‑"

"Takeru Taikashi‑"

"Ok ok!! But I'll check back with you in a few hours."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ken, its getting late. Don't you think we should stop now and come back tomorrow?"

"We don't know how long it will take to find someone who knows Mephistopheles! We need all the time we can get."

"Alright Ken. I see you're point. So where do we go next?"

"Well we since we asked Ogremon and he knew nothing the next step, I believe is to ask his former 'master'."

"You don't mean‑"

"Yes I do. He's the only one, of all the evil digimon the original digidestined fought, that we know is still alive, in some dimension or another."

"We don't even know where to start looking!"

"I have an idea of where he might be."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Ok. If I'm going to fight Mephistopheles I should know why he wants to kill me.* thought Sora.

*What makes you think he is going to kill you? He never said he would.* whispered a voice in the back of her mind.

*What's that supposed to mean? Of course he's going to kill me! He wants my body!*

*He never said he would kill you to get it. In fact, the only one he's threatened so far is Biyomon.*

*Are you trying to say he wants me and wants to kill Biyomon.*

*I am merely stating the facts. I do not know anymore than you do. But perhaps he sees in you someone he has known and cared about.*

*Who are you and how do you know all this?*

*I told you. I know only what you know but I see it more clearly. I am simply stating the facts as I see them. I can know no more than you because I am you.*

"Great! Now he's got me arguing with myself!"

"Sora? Are you ok?"

"Yes I'm fine. Just a little worried, that's all."

"You don't have to worry Sora! I'll protect you."

*She's going to protect me? That's what I'm worried about. What if she can't?*

"Why me? Why do you want to fight me?!" shouted Sora, as Biyomon looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"Are you asking me? I assume, then, that you are unaware of the actions of your predecessors. I suppose I must tell you the tale then. After all it would be very unfair of me to fight you without explaining why. I shall begin my story then, and I warn you, do not interrupt me, or I shall not continue."

A/N: ok honestly...I worked on the FY one Nuriko so don't hurt me...problem is that now I have to change my description of Hotohori....my fav FY guy for all those who didn't know. So anyway...I know this chapter's pretty short...I couldn't make it any longer without giving away all the little mysteries, assuming you guys are curious about them. So if anyone out there is still reading the wacky things I write u know what to do. That's right...tell me how much you hate me for leaving a cliffhanger. Ok so Nuriko....REVIEW!!!....or I'll be very poed and you won't get your wish.....*sees Nuriko's glare*...~~*....can no one take an empty threat?...*silence*...I guess not...*to Devil on shoulder* I guess you were wrong.
