Takeru stood in the shower, letting the hot water rush in a steady stream down his back. Thoughts flooded his mind; it was now known that he was second in command to Ken. Something that would have some serious repercussions later down the road.

But it was Hikari's face that did him in

That look of sadness

That look of betrayal

Takeru slumped down onto the shower floor, holding his head in his hands

What had he done?

Sure he knew that Michael was after his girl, but that attack on him that wasn't the person he was. He had never been in a fight outside of the digiworld, and that beating on Michael had cleared his head some, but now all he could feel was the guilt on him. The pressing fear that he would have to kill his brother and friends. He had never wanted to hurt any of them, especially Hikari. He had wanted to marry that girl, and that fuckin guy had to come and screw everything up. Takeru's face flushed as he sat on the wet floor.

"Hikari, I am soo sorry" He whispered "I will make it up to you one day, after all of this is over, I promise"

Takeru clenched his fist tightly, his fingernails cutting through the palm of his hand, blood coursed down his hand

"You will be mine again, I will hold you in my arms again, and feel the warmth of your body against me"

The drain underneath him gurgled as the blood mixed with water flowed down it.

Elsewhere...

The machines beeped louder and louder with each passing moment. Michael's eyes fluttered and opened widely; with a look of fear his eyes crossed the room.

Where the hell was he?

"Where am I?" he moaned, the words not wanting to form themselves on his tongue.

A nurse in her 20's leaned over his face. Her features dismal

"You are in the hospital, young man," She said quietly

Michael grunted and tried to sit up, the pain in his back flared up, as if someone had jabbed a red-hot poker in his back.

"Don't try to move dear, you have a minor contusion on your lower back. It is amazing that you don't have any kidney damage," the nurse said

Michael shook his head, trying to bring the memories of what happened, but all he got was a black fog in his mind.

"What happened to me?" he asked

"A stranger broke into your school. They think that he was running from the law when he made it into the bathroom where you were checking on your friend. He beat the hell out of you and ran off, your friend chased after him, we still haven't been able to find your friend, Takeru. A girl found you in the bathroom, she hasn't left your side long enough to go to the bathroom. But I shooed her out long enough to check your cathedra bag"

Michael's hand rubbed stomach and then lower, a thin metal rod attached to rubber hose was running out of his dick.

He blushed a faint red

"Well I am awake now, do you think you can take that out, please"

The nurse smiled "I'll have the doctor in and have him take it out"

Michael smiled "Thanks, how long have I been out?"

The nurse picked up the chart of the edge of the bed

"Says here, three days"

"When can I go home?"

"In the next couple of days I suppose"

The door suddenly flew open, Hikari, Janet and Yamato stood there. Janet was holding three drinks, while Yamato held a bag of fast food. Hikari was clutching Terriermon in her arms. Their eyes locked onto Michael

"Michael" the girls screamed

They rushed over; Hikari sat Terriermon on the bed and threw her arms around Michael's neck. Janet did the same, kissing his cheek lightly

"God kid you scared me" Janet whispered, her eyes becoming misty "Don't ever do something like that again"

Hikari sobbed on Michael's hospital gown

"I was soo worried"

"I'm sorry" was the only thing that Michael could even begin to say

Yamato strode into the room and ruffled Michael's head

"You have a nice nap?" he said with a smile

"Oh yeah, I had a lot of dreams" Michael said with a smile

"Well" the nurse began "I'll leave you three be, I'll send the doctor in soon and have him remove that "helper" for you" she said with a wink

"Thanks so much"

"Yeah thank you nurse" Janet said as she looked up

Yamato looked like he was becoming embarrassed

"Um guys I'll go get Taichi and Sora, they are downstairs getting her check up, Ill call Dai and Koushiro as well"

He turned and left the room

Janet pulled away and sat in a chair that was next to the bed. Terriermon ran up the bed and threw himself on top of Michael's chest

"Michael, I have been worried as well," the little digimon cooed

"Thanks buddy I appreciate it"

Hikari sat down on the bed next to him; she pulled her dress down over her knees and smiled at Michael. He had to smile back

"Where is Takeru?" he asked, his eyes wide

Janet and Hikari looked at each other

"Takeru" Janet began "Well, he's, wait don't you remember?"

Michael shook his head, Hikari looked away

"Takeru is the one that put you in here, Hikari covered up for him because we believe that Ken kid has him under his powers" Janet finished

"I am so sorry for this Michael" Hikari started, tears began to stream down her face "My T.K would never do this, I don't know what has gotten into him"

"It's ok, he wasn't himself. I don't remember it anyway so it is no big deal. I don't hold any regrets towards him"

Hikari sobbed

"Its all my fault, I had feelings toward you, I flirted with you. He knew it, and now...and now..."

"Hikari it's not your fault. Janet tell her"

Janet took a bite out of sandwich "Its not your fault Hikari"

Michael grunted and pattered her hand, Hikari looked at him her eyes wide, and kissed him on the mouth

Michael was taken back, his eyes closed and he melted into the kiss

There was a knock on the door as a white robbed doctor walked in. He smiled slightly

"I'm sure there will be plenty of time for that later. You ladies will have to wait outside as I remove his cathedra"

Hikari pulled away "I am going to wait outside, ok"

Michael, dumbfounded, nodded as she put Terriermon in the chair where Janet was sitting. She smiled at Michael again and walked out the door, with Janet in tow.

Janet got outside and stared at Hikari

"I didn't know you were that worried"

Hikari blushed and put her hands over her face

"What have I done?"

She began to cry once again

"Shh honey it will be ok"

Yamato, Taichi and Sora walked up

"He's awake huh?" Taichi asked

Janet held Hikari against her shoulder and nodded

Taichi rubbed Hikari's back

"What's wrong with her?"

"Nothing" Janet whispered "She will be fine. He doesn't remember anything that has happened"

"Well that is good" Sora piped up

"Yes and no" a voice said behind them. Koushiro popped his head up behind them

"What do you mean Koushiro?" Yamato asked, "Hikari said it was Takeru that did this"

"Yes that is quite a dilemma, but he was also spared. SO there might be a way to get our Takeru back"

Janet's eyes flashed, "What do you mean, "spared"?"

"I mean that they must have plans for Michael. Not to mention that before this is all over, we will probably have to fight Takeru and Ken. Not to mention those demons that Demon sent to Ken. We should be getting prepared" he looked over to Janet "I am sorry that we have gotten you and Michael in this"

Janet shook her head

"Doesn't mater, I am not going to let anything happen to Yamato or my brother"

She blushed slightly as Yamato reached an arm around her shoulders and kissed her cheek softly

Koushiro nodded

"Then what shall we do?"

"Well first you need to keep Jun away from this" Taichi said

Laughter went around the group

"What I don't understand," Koushiro said, blushing a bright red

"I guess we need to ask Gennai about that dark sword he has" Yamato said

"We need to find a safe place for Sora and Mimi" Taichi spoke up

"I am not leaving you Taichi Yagami" Sora said, crossing her arms over her chest

Taichi turned and looked her in the eyes

"Sora, please, we can't have you two around and have you be targets"

Sora's head bowed slightly

"Nothing is going to happen to me and I'll be damned if I'm going to let anything happen to you and our child"

He placed a hand over her swelling stomach

"Nothing and I mean that" he whispered as he kissed her softly

"Ok that's enough of the mushy stuff" Yamato said with as smile on his face "Lets got talk to Gennai and see what he says"

"That would be the smart thing to do" Koushiro added
________________________________________________________________________

Ken sat in his throne on in the digiworld; his dark eyes watched the scrying pool that sat in front of him. He watched the conversation between the destines, his face masked in both fear and anger

"How dare they talk about defeating me, I am the Demon King" He roared "Takeru, get in here"

Takeru appeared in his dark robe "You bellowed for me master"

Ken was off his throne in a flash, striking Takeru across the face

"Don't EVER take that sarcastic tone with me, remember what I have given you"

Takeru spat out some blood

"Given me? Given me, the only thing you have given me is pain. I can't even show my face to the woman I love because I ABOUT KILLED A PERSON"

Takeru swung his fist out catching Ken on the jaw

"You dare hit me? After all I have done for you, the promises that I was willing to give you for your service to me"

Ken began to float in the air, a cloud of dark matter surrounded Takeru, cutting off his air

"I should destroy you. To see your face turn a bright purple as you life is drained from you"

Takeru attempted to cough only nothing would come out, he grasped at his throat

"I should feed you to my little pits below us. To let them crunch your bones between their teeth"

Takeru fell to his knees, collapsing under the sudden weight of the loss of air, his strength leaving him

"I should bring you Hikari before me, rape her in front of you then snap her neck like a little twig"

Takeru's anger rushed through him

"NOOO!!!"

He stood breaking Ken's power over him, a white light began to pour over him, lighting the darken room. His eyes became white as the power rushed through him.

It was the crest of hope, helping him again

The light took a wing form, like those of an angel. Ken swung his arm over his eyes to knock the glare away from his eyes

"I know that I have done something that will take me a long time to fix. But I have learned that there is always redemption, but for you Ken."

The wings begun to flap lifting him off the ground, his recently darkened D-3 began to glow, morphing itself back to its original color once again

"I will lead them against you. We will defeat you"

Ken sputtered trying to comprehend what was going on. Why didn't he foresee the power that Takeru held, and the effects that was happening to him

"And I will kill you for this"

A beam of light shot out of his D-3, forming a sword of pure light, the blade sharp and the power extreme.

Takeru's face appeared as an angel, the old Takeru had returned

"Because light always defeats the dark"

The wings flapped higher and higher, the D-3 opening a gate to the real world, Takeru flew through it. The gate snapped shut behind him

Ken breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled and laughed darkly

"Don't worry my ex-friend. I have seen your true colors, and your betrayal will haunt your sleep"

He slammed his fist down on a nearby table, destroying it in one blow

"Demons bring me Miyako, NOW"
________________________________________________________________________

Well for one I couldn't allow Takeru to stay evil, you could tell it wasn't in him. Anyway I know I said it before about the Miyako and Daisuke story, and I have not forgotten it. Don't worry their date will be one of history, with their first time together. Its time to return back to the old.

Alright folks be back soon

I remain
