Hiiii! Welcome to "Guide Me Through". This is my first fic, so bare with me as I get the hang of things. How do you make a summary and stuff? im soooo confuzzed! For this fic, instead of living in Japan, they all live in Denver, Colorado. I don't really understand the whole Japanese thing, so I just decided to make it easier on myself and make them American. And I also added Willis to the 02 team, because he fills my heart with joy. Oh, and I'm not quite sure on the ages, so if somebody could help me out- how old would everybody else be when TK and Kari are 14? Well- ON WITH THE STORY!

Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon or any of its characters.

My name is Kari Kamyia, and I'm 14 years old. About 6 years ago, when I was around 8 years old, I, along with 7 other kids, including my brother, Tai, were transported to the Digital world. The Digital world is a world parallel to that of Earth, and is home to amazing creatures, called Digimon. Digimon have the power to evolve, or "digivolve" into different monsters, each one stronger than the last. Each of us kids had a digimon partner, who stood by us and protected us against evil forces that were trying to take control of the Digital world. We had some pretty crazy adventures, but now all of the fighting it over, and things are starting to get back to normal, whatever that is.

We are all quite different now than we were back then. The other kids, who are all older than me, with the exception of TK, who is also 14, are between the ages of 16 and 19 now. TK and I were only little kids when we were introduced to the Digital world. Luckily for us, we both had our big brothers there to watch over us.

Like I said before, my older brother, Tai, 17, is also a digidestined. (aka- a special child who was chosen to have a digimon partner and protect the Digital world.) TK's older brother is Matt, 17, who is also a digidestined. He and Tai are best friends, but that doesn't stop them from bickering all the time. The rest of the original digidestined team includes Sora Takenouchi, 17, Izzy Izumi, 16, Mimi Tachikawa, 18, and Joe Kido, 19.

You may have noticed I said "original" digidestined. Well, last year, when I was in 7th grade, a new batch of kids, including TK and I, were chosen to be a new team of digidestined. They are Yolie Inoue, 15, Davis Motomiya, 14, Cody Hida, 12, Ken Ichijouji, 15, and Willis Young. Together we were able to defeat the evil MaloMyotismon, and many other dark forces.

Things have been pretty quiet since then though. We haven't had to battle anyone (or anything for that matter) since then, and life is finally starting to get back to normal. Which pretty much guarantees that something big is going to happen and everything will change again.

But hey, I guess it comes with the digidestined territory. And if things ever get too crazy, I know that I will always have my friends to turn to, or Gatomon, my digimon partner.

Gatomon is the greatest partner ever. She always has a cool head, is a great listener, and really loves me. Not to mention she totally kicks evil digimon butt! Although, there are just some things she doesn't understand. Like my love of photography. She thinks my pictures are great and everything, but she doesn't see the purpose of capturing something, even if it is just on film, when you could just remember it.

And one thing she really has a hard time understanding, try as she may, is how it kills me when someone is upset. I just hate it, whether it's my fault or not. The one thing I absolutely cannot stand is seeing someone, especially one of my friends unhappy. Gatomon says that I don't give people enough credit, that I don't think they are strong enough to just suck it up themselves and get over it. Gato is much more of a "leave people to themselves" kind of personality. I wish I could be more like her. I find I'm always tripping over myself trying to make other people happy, instead of taking care of myself.

This is where TK comes in. TK is my best friend in the entire world, ever since our first adventure to the digital world. He really listens to me, and understands where I'm coming from when I worry about everyone. I owe a lot to him. Not only has he saved me from harm about a zillion times, but he regularly saves me from myself. He is the only one who can really comfort me when things go wrong. He gives me hope that things will get better. So often, I lose myself in my thoughts, which are not always as happy- go- lucky as I try to appear. And whenever I start to slip, TK is there to pull me back, whether I ask him to or not. Sometimes it seems as though he knows me better than I know myself, which he probably does. I can only hope that I know him equally as well in return. I love all of my friends dearly, but I think TK will always have a special place close to my heart.

I think that's good enough for today. I gently closed the lid to my white and yellow pineapple laptop, a hand-me-down from Izzy. Then I get ready for bed.

Last week I decided I was going to keep a record of my life. Not really a diary, just a place to put my stories, my dreams, and everything about my friends and day to day life. Ok... so maybe a little like a diary, but instead of a daily thing, it will be more like an ongoing story, or a biography, and I'll work on it whenever I have the time. Which will most likely be never. Either that or I will forget about it completely.

I change into my white sweatpants and hot pink tank-top and crawl into the top bunk. I still have the bunk-beds in my room, even though Tai and I stopped sharing a room a long time ago.

I have to push Gatomon off my pillow before I lay down, but once I get settled, she plops herself down in the crook of my legs and instantly falls back asleep.

I find it a little bit harder to fall asleep than usual. I keep getting this odd feeling in the pit of my stomach, telling me that something is going to happen. I hate this feeling, because it's usually right. Great.

Oooh, a little bit of foreshadowing there? Did u get that she was typing for the first part? I wasn't sure if that was clear. I hope you liked the first chapter. The second one is coming soon, I have it written, I just need to type it up. But the others may be a little slower- I'm still not 100% sure where I'm going with this. Feel free to give me ideas!
