Datastore Module's Data Table is blank?

So I made a Datastore system in a module.

there are 4 functions:
save, get, init (initialize), and getdatastore

HOW IT WORKS

So basically, how it works, is that the server initializes the datastore (sets everything from the datastore into a table called DataTable).

Later, when the server gets the datastore info, they change values in the datastore table returned by the Get function.

When the Save function is called, it saves everything from the datastore table onto the actual datastore.

When the player joins again, it does the cycle again.

Feel free to ask questions if this is unclear.

The Problem

Whenever the server calls the Get function, the DataTable is somehow nil???

Here’s the code:

local Data = {}
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local Modules = game.ServerStorage.ServerModules
local Settings = game.ServerStorage.ServerSettings
local DataTable = {}




Data.GetDatastore = function(player)
	return DataStoreService:GetDataStore(require(game.ServerStorage.ServerSettings.MainSettings).DatastoreVersion)
end

Data.Init = function(player)
	local FinalData
	local Key = player.UserId .. "'s Data"
	local data = Data.GetDatastore(player)
	local s, err = pcall(function() FinalData = data:GetAsync(Key) end)
	if s then	
		if player.DisplayName ~= player.Name then
			print("✅ " .. player.DisplayName .. "(@" .. player.Name .. ")'s data was successfully retrieved!") 
		else
			print("✅ " .. player.Name .. "'s data was successfully retrieved!")
		end
	else
		if player.DisplayName ~= player.Name then
			warn("(MAJOR ERROR) ❌ " .. player.DisplayName .. "(@" .. player.Name .. ")'s data was not able to be retrived!")

		else
			warn("(MAJOR ERROR) ❌ " .. player.Name .. "'s data was not able to be retrieved!")
		end
		warn("Error message: " .. err)
		player:Kick("Your data was not able to be retrieved! You have been kicked to prevent data loss. (Roblox's datastores might be down...)")
	end


	local NewPlayer = (FinalData == nil)
	if NewPlayer then

		
		print("New player!")
		data:SetAsync(Key, require(Settings.DefaultData))
		DataTable[player.UserId] = require(Settings.DefaultData)
		return true
	end

	
	DataTable[player.UserId] = Data.GetDatastore(player):GetAsync(Key)
end

Data.Save = function(player)
	local FinalData
	local Key = player.UserId .. "'s Data"
	local data = Data.GetDatastore(player)

	local s, err = pcall(function() data:UpdateAsync(Key, function() return DataTable[player.UserId] end) end)
	if s then
		return true, DataTable[player.UserId]
	else
		if player.DisplayName ~= player.Name then
			warn("(MAJOR ERROR) ❌ " .. player.DisplayName .. "(@" .. player.Name .. ")'s data was not able to be saved!")

		else
			warn("(MAJOR ERROR) ❌ " .. player.Name .. "'s data was not able to be saved!")
		end
		warn("Error message: " .. err)
		game.ReplicatedStorage.Communication.AddNotification:FireClient(player, "Your data was not able to be saved! Error message: " .. err, 10)
		return false
	end
end

Data.Get = function(player)
	return DataTable[player.UserId]
end
return Data
