New Life

Chapter 2: Decision

"Have you chosen a door, or are you going to go back to your old life?"

"No!" the men screamed in unison.

"So what door?"

"Number two."

"Why?"

"Because there's two of us."

"You just couldn't do this the easy way, eh? Had to choose one of the doors that's the farthest away, didn't you?"

The figure sighed and snapped his fingers. Everything went black.

"Well, I'm too lazy to do this the way I'm supposed to, so," he snapped his fingers again and a single light came on, a door beneath it, "there you go-enjoy your new life. And since I forgot to tell you, you'll most likely end up being a different age-probably kids."

"You ready, Yamato?"

"As ready as I'll ever be."

As they floated towards the door they held hands tightly. They both put their free hand on the doorknob and turned it together. The door swung open, and all they could see was a vortex of pure, white nothingness.

"Well, our new life awaits," Taichi said, taking a step forward.

Yamato pulled his hand, stopping him from walking through the door. "Wait-what if this isn't a life we want?"

"Do you want to go back to the life we have right now?"

"No-that's not what I mean. I mean-we should say goodbye now, in case things don't turn out so good."

"Don't think like that! Things will fine."

"I know-I just don't want to even think of losing you. Kiss me."

Taichi stared straight into Yamato's eyes and slowly brushed his lips against the blonde's.

"Now let's go."

Together they walked through the door and were instantly falling. They spiraled into oblivion, holding tightly to each others' hands.

"Don't let go!" Yamato yelled.

"I won't!"

They were sucked into a multi-colored tunnel and only had to fight harder to hold on to each other. When they thought it would never end, they saw a bright light that blinded them, and sucked them in-and suddenly their journey was over.

Yamato woke up to heavy pounding on the door of his apartment. He rubbed his eyes, lifted his arm up, and pushed the button on his watch that made it light up.

"Three o' clock? My dad better not have locked himself out again. If he did, I swear I'll have to glue a set of keys to his chest."

Lazily, he threw the covers off of himself and got out of bed. He walked out of his room-careful to avoid the pile of clothes he'd left just outside his bedroom to be cleaned the next day-and flipped on a few lights while still rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. There was more pounding at the door and he started to get frustrated from being forced to wake up so early.

"Hold on!"

When he reached the door, he yanked it open, revealing a heavily winded Taichi.

"Can I . . . come in?" Taichi slouched against the doorframe until Yamato finally regained his composure and stepped aside to let his friend in.

"What are you doing here?" Yamato asked as the brunette slammed the door shut and flopped down on the floor.

"Can I . . . have something . . . to drink first?"

"Oh!" Yamato turned and ran into the kitchen, trying to find a clean glass to put some water in. He finally found one and filled it with water then ran back and handed it to his friend. "Here." Taichi drank the whole thing in one big gulp and panted heavily. "So-tell me what you're doing at my house at three in the morning."

"It was Kari and her friends. She's got a whole bunch of them over, and they wanted to play dress up with me!"

"How many twelve-year-old girls are we talking about?"

"About ten."

"Man! What were they gonna do? Hold you down and put make-up on you?"

"Something like that."

"So you ran all the way here?"

"Not all the way. I ran out of the apartment and took a break in the park. I started walking here again, but then it felt like somebody was following me, so I started running again."

"You and your fear of the dark-you think somebody's following you every time you go out late at night."

"Shut up! There may very well have been somebody following me this time!"

"Just remember that night in the Digital world . . . you had to go to the bathroom and Agumon followed you to make sure you were okay."

"Yeah, so?"

"And you thought a dinosaur was chasing you!"

"Agumon is a dinosaur!"

"You thought a t-rex was following you-yeah, t-rexes really walk that quietly."

"Just shut up all ready! Can I stay the rest of the night or not?"

"Of course you can! My dad's not here anyway-but he'll be back soon. Of course-knowing him-he's gonna call in a few hours and say that he's got another business trip to go on."

"Don't be so bummed out, Yamato-he works so much for you."

"I know, but he works too much."

"Quit moping and let's go to bed-I'm tired."

"Okay."

Review! Now you get to wonder what life they have! Obviously they know each other, but are they lovers? Wanna-be lovers? Totally straight? Bi? Or maybe something else. As I said before-that's for me to know and for you to wonder! You'll have to wait and read the next chapter when I post it!
