Chapter 45: A Solution and the End
It's been six months five days twelve hours and forty-two minuets since Sasuke and Takuya had to be knocked out and the seal be redone. The girls were sent back to the human world to take care of the digital world and finish retrieving the other legendary digital spirits. Which, they did so with some difficulty but they did succeed. Everyone else except for Takuya went back to the human world and to the digital world to defeat Trubimon and bring the digital world back to peace once more. Through much difficulty the group managed to succeed in what they set out to accomplish. Agunimon's spirit said his good bye to Takuya and asked the headmaster to help him in any way that he could. His time with Takuya was over and he had to once again return to his own world.
Now the boys had one more thing that they had to do. They all wanted their elemental counter part to be able to live their own lives again. Toshiro had been spending most of his time in Tommy's mind but when Tommy was worried about him and let him take control he would be doing research. But his thoughts would always wonder. Tommy would have flashes of what Toshiro was thinking while he was sleeping.
Toshiro locked himself away in his old room and then started drawing what looked like an alchemy circle.
"Toshiro, are you sure that you want to do this?" Tommy questioned his counter part.
"I'm sure it will work, we've come too far not to test it." Toshiro answered as he continued to draw the complex circle.
"Okay then, let's do this." Toshiro smiled as he could see Tommy fist pump into the air and had determination in his eyes.
"That's what I like to hear." Toshiro chuckled a little.
After a couple of minuets of drawing the circle on the floor Toshiro was finally done. "Okay are you ready Tommy?" Toshiro asked.
"As ready as I'll ever be." Tommy replied and he took a deep breath, "What's the worse that can happen?"
"We die." Toshiro replied.
"Oh well way to put a positive spin on this." Tommy laughed sheepishly as Toshiro stepped into the circle.
Matt, Koji, J.P., Zoe and Koichi were sitting in the common room in their dorm that they were staying in while they were at the Academy. People had been wondering why Sasuke and his friends were gone for a while then suddenly returned. Also they were wondering who the new kids were and why they weren't taking classes like everyone else. The student body was starting to question why Sasuke hasn't been around lately. Today was the day that the headmaster was having a meeting with the student body to straighten things out and tell them what is going on.
"I wonder how Kaylee and Noelle are doing." J.P. sighed leaning back in his chair.
"They're probably doing fine, if anything they are missing their significant others." Zoe giggled looking over at Koji and Koichi.
Koji just kept looking at the wall without a single emotion being shown and Koichi blushed and looked down at the floor twiddling his thumbs.
"Why haven't you gone back Zoe?" Matt asked.
"I have to go home in a couple of hours. I was hoping that Takuya would be awake by now." Zoe sighed and stood up.
"Where are you going?" Koji asked looking over at Zoe.
"I'm going to the headmaster's office to see if I can say goodbye to Sasuke and Takuya before I leave." Zoe stated and she walked out of the house.
She went to the head masters office and looked down at the ground as the students were talking to each other and whispering as Zoe walked by.
"Who is she?" One of the girls asked.
"I hear that she's just a human." The other girl said to her friend.
"Then why is she here?" The first girl said.
Zoe tried to ignore them and started walking faster to get away from them. When she made it to the Headmaster's office he wasn't there.
"Hello?" Zoe shouted looking around only to have her voice echo back to her. "I guess no one's here." She walked over to the room where Takuya and Sasuke were. She hesitated on opening the door when she was standing in front of it. She took a deep breath and placed a hand on the doorknob and opened the door.
"Sasuke…Takuya…" Zoe said quietly walking in and closing the door behind her.
Sasuke was still lying there unconscious. Sasuke's hair had gotten longer and his facial hair started to show on his face. His body was covered with some strange symbols. Zoe didn't know what to do. She walked over and brushed some of his hair out of his face.
"Hey…can either of you hear me?" She muttered.
Sasuke's breathing was soft and brushed Zoe's skin as she leaned in closer. "If either of you can hear me Takuya…I love you, I know that I wasn't able to say it before all of this happened…I was just scared…Sasuke…I went into your old room. Who was that girl that you have a picture of in there? She's pretty…is she an elemental too? I just have so many questions… I want you both back…" A tear slid down her cheek. She placed a hand on Sasuke's cheek and leaned down and kissed him lightly on the lips and then turned to walk out.
When she went to reach for the knob it faded away everything was starting to change. "What's going on?" She asked when she turned around Sasuke was gone. "Sasuke…" Zoe looked around and no one was in the room with her. "Sasuke…Takuya…Where are you?" She asked and ran out of the room. It was dark in the Headmaster's room as she ran to the door.
It was night outside as she ran back to the house where everyone was staying. She ran into the house and all the lights were out. For some reason Zoe felt like she might find them if she went to Sasuke's room she might find them. So she ran up the stairs to Sasuke's room. "Takuya…Sasuke…" She said but no one was there. "Where are you…" She muttered.
She felt a hand wrap around her waist and mouth and pull her in. "Who are you and how did you get in here?" Sasuke whispered into her ear.
Sasuke removed his hand so that she could talk. "Sasuke!." Zoe exclaimed and turned around and hugged him.
"Who are you?" He asked again pushing her away.
"What do you mean it's me…Zoe, Takuya's Girlfriend." She stated.
His red eyes widened, "Zoe…how did you get here?" He questioned confused.
"I don't know where am I and how are you walking around not even a few minuets ago you and Takuya were unconscious and you power's were being resealed." Zoe explained.
"Wait how long have I been out?" He asked.
"Over 6 months." Zoe replied.
Sasuke wandered over to his bed and sat down, "Damn it, Father sad that the seal wouldn't break, it's not fair…" Sasuke pulled at his hair.
"Why do your powers have to be sealed Sasuke?" It was Zoe's turn to ask questions as she sat down next to him.
Sasuke took a deep breath, "I am classified as a fire elemental but…that's not the only element that I can control…" He stated as he looked at Zoe and she looked shocked and confused. "I can control all of the elements including the one element that is rear to see with elementals. From what I know my father is the only one that can control the element of time." Zoe was speechless and didn't know what to say to him so Sasuke continued with his explanation.
"The thing is my body can't handle all of that power. We found out that I can control all the elements when I was still in the human world. Met Toshiro there too…he honestly was my first friend that I had. Everyone thought that I was weird because I was different. That's why my dad made the academy. To help all the elementals feel like they had a place in this world and to learn how to control our powers." He explained.
"Oh…wow…" Is all Zoe could say.
"As for where Takuya is, well your guess is as good as mine at the moment, but I think that we should look for him so that we can work together and figure out how to wake back up." Sasuke stated.
"But you should know how to get out of this right?" Zoe said.
Sasuke shook his head. "No I wasn't badly injured the last time that I had the seal placed on me. But I'm willing to try anything to figure out how to wake back up again." Sasuke stood up and smiled down at Zoe. "You know you remind me a lot of the one that I left behind. I loved her but I never got to say it to her." He held out his hand and helped Zoe up.
"What was her name?" She asked.
"Rangiku." He answered and walked over to the door. "Come on let's go find Takuya." He opened the door and they both walked out of the room.
Mean while, back with the rest of the group J.P. fell asleep in the chair as they were waiting for the headmaster to get them for the assembly.
"I wonder what's taking Zoe so long." Koji muttered playing with his hair.
"Maybe she's talking with the headmaster or something like that." Koichi commented.
"Hey has anyone seen Toshiro or my little brother in a while?" Matt asked.
Koji and Koichi shook their heads, "The last time I saw either one of them it was when…" Toshiro screaming cut off Koichi.
Toshiro's screaming jolted J.P. right out of his sleep and fell right out of his chair. Matt was the first on out of his chair and ran up the stairs to Toshiro's room.
"What's going on?" J.P. asked following everyone else up the stairs. The house shook when there was an explosion.
Matt tried to get into the room but the door was locked so he kicked the door in. When the door opened he saw Toshiro against the left sidewall unconscious with smoke rising off of him. Matt looked to the opposite wall and there his little brother was unconscious as well.
"He did it…Toshiro actually did it." Kyoshiro stated surprised.
"Tommy, Toshiro!" Matt said going over to his little brother and placed him next to Toshiro. "Come on you two wake up!" Matt said shaking their shoulders.
"Ugh…my head…" Toshiro muttered putting his hand up to his head and rubbing his eyes. He blinked a few times and looked around and saw Tommy leaning against the wall next to him. "Tommy!" He said.
"What happened…" Tommy muttered.
"We did it, we did it Tommy!" Toshiro exclaimed and hugged Tommy.
"We did." Tommy laughed and hugged him back.
"But how did you…"Matt said and went silent. "This is what you two have been doing for the past few months haven't you? You two have been figuring out how to separate all of us."
Toshiro let go of Tommy and smiled, Tommy nodded happily. "We'll have to wait till later to try again right now we have to get to the auditorium and tell the headmaster." Toshiro stated standing up and helping Tommy up.
"Right, let's go." Matt nodded in agreement.
Koji, Koichi, and J.P. nodded in agreement and started heading down stairs. Toshiro, Tommy, and Matt followed. It didn't take them long to get there.
"Headmaster, headmaster…" Koji said running up to him.
"Good timing I was just about to call for you all." Headmaster stated.
"No Toshiro did it, he…" The headmaster silenced him.
"Not now Koji, we will talk about this later." He said and walked out into the auditorium.
"Were you able to tell him?" Toshiro asked Koji.
"No, he already went out there." Koji answered, "And I'm not going to be ignored either." Koji stepped out from the curtain and the commotion that was in the auditorium from suddenly fell silent. "Headmaster will you please listen to us!" Koji shouted.
"Who is this kid." A random kid shouted from the crowed.
"Koji get backstage I told you we would discuss things after this." Headmaster stated.
"Sir, please listen to us." Toshiro said running out after Koji.
"Toshiro?! What is he doing here, I thought something happened to him." Someone muttered loud enough for Koji to hear.
"YOU WANT TO TRUTH!?" Koji snapped. "MY NAME IS KOJI MINAMOTO, I AM THE WARRIOR OF LIGHT. I WAS NOT AN ELEMENTAL WHEN I WAS BORN. I WAS A DIGIDESTIN A PROTECTOR OF THE DIGITAL WORLD..." Koji trailed off and his hair started to lighten to a light blue and shortened. He grew to 6'5" tall and a lot of kids gasped. Ryuu took a deep breath and looked out at the students. "HI EVERYBODY… THAT'S RIGHT…KOJI AND I ARE THE SAME PERSON, WE ARE COMPATABLE WITH EACH OTHER, WHICH MENT THAT BECAUSE MY BODY COULDN'T HANDLE GOING INTO THE HUMAN WORLD I ENDED UP GOING TO THE PERSON WHO IS TECHNICALLY MY RENCARNATION WHICH IS KOJI MINAMOTO." Ryuu shouted and Toshiro motioned for everyone else to come out.
He stood next to Tommy and placed a hand on his shoulder, "THIS IS MY RENCARNATION TOMMY HIMI, HE IS ALSO A DIGIDESTIN, HE'S THE WARRIOR ICE." Toshiro looked over at the headmaster and he was shocked. He turned back to the crowd and took a deep breath. "TO BE HONEST BECAUSE I AM STRONGER THEN TOMMY, EVENTUALLY I WOULD HAVE COMPLETELY TAKEN OVER HIS BODY AND REPLACED HIM IN THE HUMAN RLEAM. AFTER RESEARCHING FOR A FEW MONTHS WE WERE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO SEPARATE OURSELVES FROM EACH OTHER." Toshiro finished and the crowd fell silent.
"Then what's the deal with Sasuke?" One kid shouted.
"Yea, I haven't seen him in like six months." Another random kid said.
"Calm down." The head master said as the kids started causing uproar in the auditorium.
The doors slammed open and everyone fell silent again. Takuya was standing there with his hair all messy and his clothing a bit small on him. "So who forgot to invite us to the party?" Takuya laughed.
"Takuya…" Toshiro muttered as a smile spread across his lips.
"Who is this kid?" A boy stated.
"I am Takuya Kanbara, the warrior of Fire…" Takuya stated walking down the isle as his hair turned from brown to black and lengthened. "And I'm Sasuke Kasai, son of headmaster Kaisai…" Sasuke stated.
"Sasuke!" Toshiro shouted and jumped down and ran over to his best friend.
Toshiro latterly glomped Sasuke to the ground and they were both laughing, "I'm so glad you're finally awake!" Toshiro cheered then he punched his best friend in the shoulder, "Don't ever get that injured or do that to yourself again." Toshiro ordered.
"Okay, I'll try not to." Sasuke chuckled and they both stood up.
The rest of the explanation of the whole situation with them went alright, most of the kids probably left the auditorium more confused that when they came in but that happens. After the meeting they all went back to the house where they were staying and one by one Toshiro was able to separate everyone so that they were themselves again.
"Well I guess this is good bye." Takuya said staring at Sasuke. It was strange for him and really everyone of them to be saying goodbye, their elements helped them learn more and grow physically and mentally.
"This isn't good bye Takuya, to be honest I think that we well meet again at some point." Sasuke commented.
"I look forward to it." Takuya smiled and they shook hands.
Everyone said their goodbyes and Takuya and the group went back to the human world. Everything went back to normal but the group never will forget about their counter parts and what one hell of an adventure they went on.
~27 Year Later~
"Dad, dad can you help me for a minuet?" A boy that looked to be about 17 years old asked his father. The boy had light blonde hair and green eyes, he stood about 5'10" tall and seemed to be a bit thin for his height.
"Sure Jack I'll be right there." The man with messy brown hair stated setting the book down that he was reading and got up.
"Takuya, you two better not take too long dinner is almost done." His wife shouted at him.
"Alright Zoe, I understand we'll be quick about it." Takuya walked over to his son and bent down a little bit, "That means we at least have a half an hour because she's going to forget something." Both of them chuckled.
"I heard that." Zoe commented and both Takuya and his son ran out the door.
"So what was it you wanted to show me son?" Takuya questioned.
"Well, so you remember when you would tell me the story about the adventures that you would have and about elementals?" Jack questioned.
"Yea, what about them?" He asked.
"Well um…what I want to tell you is umm…" Jack stuttered looking down at the ground.
Takuya's eye's widened when he saw who stepped out of the shadows and placed an arm around Jack.
"Your son is an elemental Takuya. And a wind elemental at that, I guess he got most of his mother in him." A young man that looked to have just turned 20 with black hair that was now cut with some strands of hair longer then the others and red streaks running through it. He had blood red eyes and stood as tall as Takuya. "I told you we would see each other again." The young man smirked.
"S-Sasuke…" Was all Takuya could get out.
The End
