Princess of Miracles

Chapter 4

Matt's P.O.V

We made it to the clearing as Mimi hopped off. I was more careful as I shifted Dai in my arms and gently got off Garurumon; the young girls head falling onto my shoulder. I could hear the rest of the group coming up behind us, but right now I could careless. I knew that Mimi had sent a message to all of the old generation to meet us in the digital world, "Garurumon…. Can you let Dai rest against you?" I asked my partner after looking around the clearing, and not spotting anything that I could rest her against. My partner nodded and laid down; curling his body so I could prop the young girl up against him. Veemon was quick to curl up protectively next to his partner as I got her settled, gently brushing the hair out of her face as loud footsteps sounded around us.

"Oh Matt," I heard Mimi whispered softly, "you really care about her."

"Yeah… fuck Mimi she is Tk's age," I said not looking away from Dai. The bruising around her throat caused me so much anger. The fact that someone had gotten close enough to actually touch her, to injure her in such a way made my blood boil.

"Age is a number Matt… besides you are only 3 years and she is legal." Mimi argued as I sighed, "think about it Matt I have a feeling that she would return your feelings if you confess."

"MATT!" a scream interrupted us as Tai burst into the clearing out of breath Augmon at his side. He ran to us dropping to his knee's beside me, "What happened!"

"calm down… there was an attack, and Dai ended up badly hurt but she is okay," Mimi said calmingly as she pulled Tai back allowing Joe to come and check on her as the rest of the group from the dam arrived, three more people with them. Strangely none of the Digimon that had saved Dai were there.

Takuya's P.O.V

I gritted my teeth as we made it to the clearing; at my wits end with the two young girls. The three boys I could handle as they had not said anything at all just stared at us in aww since we had de-transformed. They were making little snippy remarks, hushed whispers but thanks to our abilities I could hear them loud and clear. The purple haired girl even had the gall to say Dai deserved the treatment for being so stupid as to get caught then she deserved to be hurt. I bristled as we reached the clearing my eyes immediately finding Dai's small figure resting on the large wold type beast. Two people kneeled in front of her one wrapping bandaged gently around her neck and shoulder's covering the bruising. The other the blonde who had been holding my cousin back at the dam. His eyes held something familiar, something I had seen from both Koji and Koichi. It made me bristle even more as the younger blonde that was with us rushed over to them followed by the rest of the group.

"I do not like the way pretty boy is looking at her," Jp whispered his eyes sparking.

"Neither do I, but at least this group seems to have a doctor amongst them," Koji remarked as Koichi placed his arm around my waist drawing me close as two of the older kids came over to us.

"Still very unsure of what is happening here, but I am Tai and this is Sora… we understand that you stepped in to save Daisuke?" The male asked, his hair unruly and wild. Beside him was an orange haired girl, Sora, as she had been introduced. Just behind them were two Digimon, an Augmon and a Biyomon.

"We are… she is… important to us," Koji explained vaguely as the two looked at each other. I rolled my eyes and moved to step around them when the Augmon actually growled at us.

"Look… we need to be careful; we don't want any problems but we are not going to let you rush into things." Sora explained her eyes glowing red slightly.

"Look you are either going to move or be moved. That is my cousin my family and I will not be kept from her." I growled the heat building as the Augmon's eyes widened his form bowing as I pushed past them moving to my cousin taking in her still form. She had grown so much since we had lost her, and I was still having a hard time believing she was here in front of me.

"You called her your cousin," the blonde asked looking at me, my eyes finally leaving Dai's form.

"Yes… she is my cousin, practically my baby sister." I said staring him down. I was impressed that he only showed mild discomfort when I allowed the air around us to heat up. He shifted slightly away from me before both of our eyes snapped to Daisuke as she groaned softly, her eyes scrunching. The man that was dressing her wounds turned his attention back to her as we all waiting anxiously.

"Daisuke?" the bespectacled man asked as her mahogany eyes fluttered open; the flecks of gold that danced across her eyes brighter then I remember them to be. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest as they talked and eventually the man stepped back as Blondie helped her to her feet.

"Thank you… Matt is he one of the ones…. W-who saved me?" I heard her whisper as she turned to me leaning heavily on the blonde, Matt.

"I-I am…" I responded without thinking as her eyes turned to me, causing me to gasp. I took a shaky breath steeling my nerves, "Dai…. Daisuke. I am not sure if you remember me, my name is Takuya…."

She stopped me with a watery smile, "I-I know you…. No one in my family talks about it but I remember my cousins…" She whispers as I rush forward and quickly pull her into a hug tucking her against my chest keeping her tight to me.

Dai's P.O.V

I snuggled closer to my cousin; still confused as how he was here. The last time I had seen him I got hurt incredibly badly causing me to lose part of my memory from my early childhood. I could barely remember from the age of 6 to the age of 8; after that my family moved us away and refused to talk about what had happened. His arms tightened around me ever so slightly more as I let out a soft sigh. Pushing against his chest I pulled away knowing we needed to talk. He gave me a worried look as I backed away, back against Matt's chest the blondes arms wrapping around me. I gave my cousin a soft smile as the others surrounded us.

"Dai are you okay?" I heard Tai ask as he came over to us. I nodded as Matt helped me lean back against his partner as everyone else took a seat.

"now then. You mentioned something about Dai being your princess can you please explain that?" Mimi asked causing everyone to look at her and my eye widen. Princess it made no sense to me why would Takuya call me a princess.

"Yes…. You did hear us right when she was called princess. I am assuming that you all know the stories of the legendary warriors," one of the twins stated. He had long hair that was pulled up by a bandana. He was framing old side Takuya his twin brother on the other side of him.

"Yes, we found out about the legend not to long ago." Izzy supplied as my cousin and his friends all smiled at each other.

"Good then you know the basic's, but let us explain the real story and why Daisuke is a princess." Takuya smirked as I blushed as being called a princess again. "When we were your age, one of the three celestial Digimon Ophanimon called us to the digital world to stop a war between the human and beast Digimon. When we got there, we realized that my baby cousin had followed us. She was only 7 at the time, but she had more brains then all of us. As Ophanimon gave us our task she was the one that helped us. She kept us, for the most part, from fighting; and when things got bad and Ophanimon was destroyed she kept us together. As we traveled and tried to heal the digital world, she grew weaker. We found out that she had a special power, the ability to gift miracles. At first, we did not notice, but every time we were badly hurt or injuries would heal, every time we were hungry food would appear. She was not doing it consciously; and it was not until we faced one of our strongest enemies that we learned of her powers. Crusadermon and Dynasmon had been turned evil by Lucemon; we were outmatched and weakened. Daisuke…. You jumped in front of an attack that was meant for me, and a golden barrier formed around us. You protected us long enough so that we could retreat."

"Hold up! You are saying Daisuke has some special magical power!" Yolie screeched interrupting Takuya as the new group all stared at her with a surprising amount of hatred. I felt Matt's arm wrap around my shoulder as he pulled closer knowing my feeling for Yolie at the moment.

"Yes I am," Takuya snarled at the girl the heat in this area spiking until one of the twins gently placed their hand on his shoulder.

"Please let us finish this tale… it is incredibly emotional for all of us," the large brunette boy spoke his voice deep almost booming in power. I looked around to see the older generation giving Kari and Yolie a painted look as my cousin took a deep breathe.

"Thanks to some friends we had made on our journey we were able to retreat to the yellow moon; the Digimon nursery. Dai… you were barely conscious having overused this power you had… we had to wait and watch as the Royal Knights finally destroyed what remained of the world and stole it's fractal code. We found out shortly after that Lucemon had been reborn. We had almost lost hope at this point, what could we do against one of the original gods of the digital world. Everyone was injured, and we could not wake Dai. Lucemon was quickly destroying everything as we waited, when Dai finally woke up, it was like she was perfectly fine and she encouraged us that we needed to fight and save the digital world. We did not realise that she planned to sacrifice herself to allow us to merge into a form that would be able to defeat Lucemon. When the dust settled everything was repaired and Dai was missing. We returned to the real world and none of us could find her, my parents did not remember her, it was like she never existed." Takuya finished my eyes were wide. Everyone was listening in deep concentration. The story was incredible, but I was confused when they said transformation.

"what do you mean by transform?" I asked looking at my cousin who smiled at me their whole group getting up and pulling out a new kind of Digivices.

"The legendary warriors, they were powerful spirits that allowed us to Digivolve." The girl smiled as they call called out 'Execute spirit evolution'
