Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ Somehow OFF ❯ Tai and Sora's Complications ( Chapter 1 )
SomehowOFF part 1 (Tai and Sora's Complications)
Note: For Sora fans, sorry. The story just seems to fit after seeing her in Digimon season 1, and in season 2, the possibility for this still remained...
Somehow, he couldn't stop running.
First, out of that hall, the house, into the street, he wished for anywhere but that room.
"Tai! Tai, wait!" her voice pleaded.
Sora grabbed on whatever clothes she could from her dresser. Forgetting the usual combination of a white collared shirt, tie, and slacks, she pulled on her T-shirt and sweats.
"It's unbelievable!" she thought, then sighed, "Well not completely. He was bound to know sooner or later."
While running out of her home, Sora shook off her "imitation" mustache. For seven great months, she was Tai's best friend, Steve. It seemed too wrong to tell him who exactly she had been, but now it was too late.
"Tai!" she called to the street, in her no longer masculine voice. In her age of twenty, she shouted again "Tai!"
Realizing he was long gone, she stumbled back. It was all too wrong.
"Ugh," tai grabbed his forehead as it throbbed. How long had he ran, and why? Oh yeah, he muttered over his headache.
"Steve, that rotten son..." he paused. Darnit! He wasn't even a guy!
Shuddering at the oncoming memory, tai braced himself for it. Only a few minutes ago, ordinary Steve had turned into his long-lost digidestined ex-girlfriend Sora. What a nightmare.
~~
Like usual, Steve, no Sora, had left one of his, no her, belongings back at Tai's house, only it was his/her backpack. Steve was always protective of that bag like at certain times of the month.
Knocking on Steve's door, Tai heard no answer, so he stepped in. As usual, Steve's living room was cluttered with manga, video games, and a small pile of unfinished homework. It was like Tai's second home!
Putting Steve's backpack down on a couch, Tai turned to exit the apartment, catching the weirdest sound possible. Some woman was singing off-key.
Realizing it was in the same apartment he walked through the hall from the living room to Steve's room. Entering Steve's bedroom, he overheard the voice singing within the bathroom shower.
Slightly tempted to walk into the bathroom, Tai smirked instead. "He finally got a girlfriend."
IN that train of thought, he forgot to hear the shower stopping and the opening of the bathroom door.
"Click!"
Tai panicked as he saw the doorknob to the bathroom turn. For some reason, he couldn't move from looking. As a guy, he was curious.
A woman in a towel stepped out the door, only to turn to Tai in horror. She was definitely female, but her buzz cut hair and mustache got to Tai.
At first abashed, Tai took a split-second look at the girl, only to step back and gasp, "Steve?"
~~
Sora paced slightly in her apartment.. tai was then officially the third person to know of her, um, dressing, besides her clothes tailor. When she told Joe of her recent, uh, lifestyle, he helped her find a Tokyo apartment and with acting as a guy. When Mimi had to be told, being Joe's wife, she helped Sora find all the right clothing outlets, etc. Everything was fine in those seven months as Steve, until tai found out.
Three years ago, Sora left Japan as Tai's ex- and lost contact with the other digidestined. When she returned, she was "Steve." All the digidestined were still good friends with each other when Joe introduced "Steve" to them. tai immediately hooked up with "Steve" as a pal and Sora's life as Steve quickly became, normal.
Dialing a few numbers into the phone, Sora waited a moment for a few rings before breathing, "Joe? W..We need to talk."
Matt never felt that way before, well, besides for Mimi. IN the weirdest way, his thoughts were consumed with...
"Matt, you listening?" TK waved a hand in front of him. "Tai wanted to talk to us."
"Huh? Bout what?" Seeing TK's answer as a shrug, Matt sighed, then asked "Will Steve be there?"
