Digimon: John’s Fear
By nanabob66

“But, for once you can enjoy yourself!” Ponomon said, he just didn’t get it “No” I responded but Ponomon just wouldn’t shut up “But John…I know you like her” “I’m not going on a date with Alyssa! How many times do I have to say it to get you to shut up?” Ponomon took a calculator out of my backpack and pushed some buttons. “Hmm…. About twenty million more times….” I was sitting under a tree in the digiworld, Ponomon was hanging upside down from it. “Please?????” Ponomon kept asking “No…” Ponomon fell from the tree, I caught my backpack before it hit the ground. “But why not?” Ponomon questioned again while rubbing his head and climbing back up the tree. “Because….” Suddenly my head started to hurt and visions came blaring through my mind. I held my head while I saw many too images to make them all out but I got the jest of them, a huge black three-headed dragon was tearing up villages, leaving nothing alive in his path. “Because what?” Ponomon asked I realized he hadn’t noticed. What was that? I thought, maybe I do need some time to relax. “Ok Ponomon, you win, I’ll go” “Really?” Ponomon looked hopeful “Yeah…” that might have been the worst decision I made in my entire life….
The next day I found myself at my home with my family getting ready for the date. Why am I doing this? I thought to myself, somehow in someway Ponomon manages to win every argument. “Are you sure you don’t need anything?” my mom asked, “I mean, you’re going on a date dressed like that?” I was dressed casual “Mom, It’s not a prom…” “If you say so but… you should have this It’s a good luck charm, they say it can trap ancient demons in the holder’s body to keep them from their senseless destruction.” she gave me a white gem necklace, I put it on and she pretended to wipe a tear from her eye “I can’t believe it, my little boy, going on a date, they grow up so…” I butted in “fast I know now can I have some privacy?” “Ok” She left the room. Ponomon crawled out from under my bed. “Ouch… I think I got a cramp” I looked at Ponomon “What are you doing here!?” “I’m gonna make sure your date goes well” I rolled my eyes “No you’re not” I lifted him up by one of his legs, held him up to my computer and teleported him into the digiworld. I walked down the stairs unaware of what was getting myself into…
My dad drove me to Alyssa’s house we picked her up and went to the movies my dad left us there he’d pick us up later. “What movie do you want to see?” Alyssa asked, “You decide” I responded. We saw a movie then ate at some restaurant. We were waiting to be picked up but my dad never showed up. “That’s odd…” I said, we were waiting for an hour now “Were is he?” Alyssa came up with an idea. “Maybe we should take the bus” “Good Idea” I responded. We got on the bus and I had the vision again, Alyssa noticed, “What’s wrong?” “I don’t know…” we got off the bus right there “maybe it was motion sickness…” Alyssa stated. Before I could say something a fireball flew past “AHH!” Both of us were shocked “What was that?!?!” Alyssa yelled, stunned. A huge Black three-headed dragon landed in front of us. “You must be the one who has it! I disposed of the others!” He boomed, “Hand it over or die!” I closed my eyes too afraid to say anything, before anything happened the necklace my mom gave me started to glow, the dragon turned into black dust and went into my body. Alyssa was finally able to say something. “What happened?” she asked, “I’m not sure…” I was as confused as she was. I suddenly realized something and ran towards the direction of my house Alyssa followed, “What is it?” she asked, right as we got to my house… or what was left of it. The house was completely destroyed, police cars surrounding it. I overheard two cops talking, “Any survivors?” one asked, “none” the other answered. A tear rolled down my eye. If I was home I could’ve stopped this, even if I left Ponomon there. My family was dead, I could do nothing to change that, I only could keep something like it from happening again…
