I remembered reading some comments on youtube for Digimon (I think it was on youtube) and someone commented on how Tai and Kari's crests are really similar, kind of like stars. Therefore, I decided that I might write a fanfic on it, and so I hope you like the outcome.

"Mom...."
Mrs Kamiya looked at her two kids who had spoke in unison. "Yes..."
"Can we have a raise in our allowance?"
She sighed. After saying no the previous day, it was obvious that Tai and Kari had come up with an annoying retaliation. If she said no today, who knew what would happen the next day, and the day after, and that day after that. What could she do?
"Sure." she said.
"How much?"
"Fifty yen."
"Forget about it." that was only one voice that time. Tai stood up from the table and put his plate in the kitchen sink. "Kari might take it but I won't."
"It's either that or nothing." Mrs Kamiya said.
"I'll take it." Kari said. "Fifty yen is better than none!"
"That's easy for you to say." Tai muttered. "You actually get your allowance."
"Maybe if you did your chores and stopped breaking things you'd get yours too." Kari said.
"Sor-ry for not being perfect."
"You two." Mrs Kamiya sighed. "It's almost as if Tai's a devil's kid and Kari's an angel's kid."
"I'm not that bad." Tai said. "Am I?"
"No, I'm kidding." Mrs Kamiya said with a short laugh. "You're better behaved than some kids, I was talking to Mrs Ushita the other day and she says that her twins are monsters."
"No kidding." Kari said. "They're in my year, and Tommy's in my class."
"So, we're both angels' kids." Tai said.
"You wish." Kari said, flicking Tai with water from the sink. "Maybe then you'd get allowance!"
Tai flicked water back at her, and they started a water war.
"Stop mucking around, you two." Mrs Kamiya said. "You'll be late for school!"
"School, shmool." Tai said, but he picked up his schoolbag and headed for the door. "If you don't hurry up, Kari, I'll leave without you!"
Kari ran to catch up to Tai, and they headed down the steps together.
"Is your school buzzing with Digimon news?" Kari asked as they neared the schools.
"Not really, but on the first day of school it was like gossip central." Tai said. "Okay, so it's always gossip central, but everywhere you went it's people asking whether you saw the bright lights in the sky."
"And did you?"
"Kari, my digivice was the first up in the sky that day." Tai said. "Besides, I don't know anyone who didn't. No matter where you were in the world, you could see 'em."
"My school's still talking about it." Kari said. "But I think it's because my school has nothing better to talk about. You guys always have something to gossip about."
"Whatever." Tai said, turning into his school. "See yah!"
"Bye!"
Tai walked into the school building and went to his locker. He just shut his locker when someone almost ran into him. Tai stepped out of the way, and that person rammed into the next open locker.
"Sorry."
"Izzy, what are you doing?" Tai asked, putting his books in his bag. "Training for the cross country? I suggest you train 'outside'. Or in the Digiworld. Hey, there's an idea..."
"Not funny, Tai." Izzy said, dusting himself off. "Anyway, I'm late!"
"For what?"
"Uh....nothing." Izzy looked nervous. "See you around!"
Izzy ran off, and Tai watched him off, totally confused.
"Run into the brainiac too?"
Tai turned around to see Matt and Sora.
"More like he ran into me." Tai said. "Do you guys know where he's going?"
"Nope." Matt said. Sora giggled.
"He's got a date." she said. "Tara, from the computer club. It's not really a date, he's helping her with a program she's making. But it's a date when it's just them two, right?"
"I guess." Tai said. "He didn't have to nearly run into me, though."
"He ran into me, outside the office." Matt said. "And Sora at her locker."
"Oh, that's right, you changed lockers." Tai said, remembering. Her locker used to be the one next to him, but she changed so her locker was around most of her classes, and next to Matt's.
"But if you're coming down here anyway, why did you change?" Tai asked her.
"We had this conversation the other day, Tai." Sora said. "It's easier to change books in between classes."
Then the bell rang.
"We'll see you later, Tai." Matt said. "By the way, I have some news you might wanna hear."
"Okay." Tai said.
At lunch break, the four Digidestined headed to their corner table in the cafeteria.
"So what did you want to tell me?" Tai asked Matt.
"Well, you know how you walk to school with Kari?"
"Yeah."
Sora laughed. "Matt, why are you telling him this? You know he gets."
"Tell me." Tai said with a smile tugging at his lips. "Something to do with Kari?"
"Well, let's just say she's caught the eye of some freshmen guys." Matt said.
"You should just hear the gossip." Izzy said. "Not only freshmen, but some sophomores too."
"What is it with her and guys?" Sora asked. "No offence, Tai, but there's T.K, Davis,"
"The Poi Brothers of Hong Kong," Izzy added. "It's like she some kind of angel or something."
Tai went back to what his mom had said during breakfast.
"It's almost as if Tai's a devil's kid and Kari's an angel's kid."
"Everyone's saying that about Kari nowadays." Tai said. "Mom said it this morning. Kari's like an 'angel's kid'."
"What'd she say about you?" Matt asked, amused. Tai grinned.
"She said I'm like the devil's kid."
Sora, Matt and Izzy howled with laughter.
"I'm not that bad, am I?" Tai asked. "I mean, we've faced sort of demons."
"True." Sora asked when she'd stopped laughing. "But seriously, you guys are probably the 'angel siblings'. Just listen to the gossip for once in your life, Tai."
"No thanks." Tai said. Just then a fellow tennis player of Sora's came over. She looked nervous, and she sat down next to Sora.
"Sora, you promised." she said, almost begging. Sora sighed.
"No, Maru, I told you to get it yourself!"
"No!"
"Is it true, though?"
Sora blinked in surprise. "Is what true?"
Maru looked at each of the boys. "Um, I'm just gonna borrow Sora for a sec."
She dragged Sora away from the table.
"Now I see why Sora sits with us." Izzy said. "Apart from her being your girlfriend, Matt, and being a Digidestined."
"Yeah, she'd rather hang with us anti-socials than with her tennis team." Tai said.
"We're not anti-social." Matt said. "It's just easier this way. I mean, after four years of not sitting together, it's kinda nice. We can get the news of the Digiworld easier."
"No, Maru! He's not! Why the hell do you listen to that trash?"
The boys looked over at a very agitated Sora who was stomping back over to the table.
"Did she say something to make you angry?" Izzy asked.
"No, just something annoying." Sora said. She sighed. "Never mind, it's not important."
"Okay." Tai said. Matt glared at him. "What?"
"Sora, come on, we wanna know." he said. Tai rolled his eyes.
"I do not want to be here when this is finished." he said. "That reminds me, I have something I need to take care of."
After school, Tai was sitting outside the building doing some homework before he forgot. If he failed this year his dad would kill him. Some freshman girls walked passed, whispering and staring at him with wide eyes. Tai glanced up at the word 'angel'. He sighed. Why did everyone have some weird obsession with angels at the moment?
"Tai!"
Tai looked up and saw Kari, Davis, Yolei, Cody and T.K at the gate. He stood up and went over to them.
"Hey, I thought you guys would be in the Digiworld." Tai said.
"We decided not to today." Yolei said. "Even though it would be warmer. I suggested the desert, but everyone else complained. I don't know why."
"Because when we came back we'd be colder than we were when we headed off." T.K said. "Think about these things, Yolei."
"Whatever."
"So what are you guys going to do instead?" Tai asked.
"Well, since mom and dad have gone away and you're "babysitting" me, I wanted to know if the others could stay for the weekend. We were going to have a party weekend." Kari explained. Tai sighed.
"Do you have to have it at our place?"
"Yeah. You see, we don't want parents there, but Yolei's parents don't want to host it at her place and they don't want there to be no parents there." Kari said.
"My mom's really busy this weekend trying to sort out the interview for someone about the winter attacks." T.K said. "And she doesn't want us to be alone. Matt doesn't want to babysit us anyway."
"My mom doesn't allow parties at my place." Cody said. "And since I'm only nine she'd prefer it if parents are there."
"And no one wants to hang around with June." Davis said. "Ken's parents are the same, and it's too far to go to Tamachi anyway."
"Please." Kari begged. "Everyone's parents trust you!"
"Fine, whatever," Tai said. The group cheered.
"Then we'll be over tomorrow morning, 'kay?" Yolei asked. "See yah!"
That evening Kari was doing stocktaking in the kitchen while Tai talked on the phone to his parents.
"Uh-huh. Sure, we know the number. Mm. And the party things all go, right? Okay, Kari made me ask."
"Not true!" Kari shouted.
"You said you didn't want to talk to them at all, which means you made me ask!" Tai shouted back, then went back to the phone. "Yeah, okay. We know how to be safe. Uh-huh. Yeah, see you on Monday."
He put down the phone and went to the kitchen.
"You know you could've just not told them abut the party." Kari said.
"That would be irresponsible."
"You are irresponsible."
"Am not. Hey..." Tai began thoughtfully. "Do you know why there's talk of angels throughout the district?"
Kari shrugged. "But remember, Angewomon and Angemon were flying around a few weeks ago."
"No, I mean, like, not Digimon angels. Real angels."
Kari looked at her brother. "Why?"
"People are saying that we're angels for some reason. It's all over my school."
"That's weird."
"Tell me about it."
"Are all the doors locked?" Kari asked. "It's getting late."
"Yeah, I checked." Tai said. Agumon yawned.
"Is it bedtime?" he asked. Gatomon leapt onto the kitchen bench.
"I don't think we should go to sleep tonight. Something unusual is in the air."
"Probably because you can't smell mom or dad." Kari said.
"No, I smell it too." Agumon said. "And it smells like Digimon."
"Digimon?" Tai and Kari asked in unison. Then the ground shook, and it went black.
"Tai.....Tai.....Tai!"
"Yeah, yeah."
Tai sat up, and blinked a few times to get his eyes adjusted to the dim light.
"Hey, I'm not home...."
"We're in a dungeon." Agumon pointed out. "I wanted to look out the window, but I'm not tall enough."
Tai stood up and went over to the window, which overlooked a forest. "Um, I think it's safe to say we're in the Digiworld. That Digimon you smelt...."
"I can still smell it." Agumon said. Tai looked around, and Kari was on the other half of the cell with Gatomon, still unconscious. "Uh, I wouldn't do that if I were..."
ZAP.
"You."
"Ouch." Tai said, shaking the electricity from his hand. "What...."
"It's an electrical force field." Agumon explained. "Someone doesn't want you two getting close."
"But why?" Tai asked, going back over to the window.
"That same someone wants all the Digidestined destroyed?"
"Ha-ha. But why only take me and Kari last night? Why not everyone?"
".....how do we know they're not here?"
"Because otherwise my digivice would show us, and it normally beeps occasionally to remind me another Digidestined is near."
"So one of the kids is awake. Finally."
Tai and Agumon glanced to the door of the cell, where a humanoid Digimon was standing. She looked a bit like LadyDevimon, except she lacked wings and face helmet.
"Careful, Tai, that's LadySatamon. She's a friend of LadyDevimon's, and she's just as mean too!"
"Is she related to SkullSatamon? Or is that just a coincidence?" Tai asked.
"Don't refer me to that bonehead." LadySatamon snapped. "Lousy Digimon."
"Okay, sorry." Tai said, holding up his hands. "I didn't mean any offence."
"Of course you did." LadySatamon growled. "You angels, always thinking you can get away with anything you want."
"Huh?" Tai blinked in surprise. For the third time that day, he'd been called an angel. And something told him that LadySatamon didn't mean the way everyone else meant it. "Okay, now I am officially confused."
"You mean you don't know?" LadySatamon was taken aback. "Get real."
"I have no clue what you're on about." Tai said. "Agumon, do you know?"
Agumon shook his head. "She's crazy. Don't worry, that comes with the job description anyway."
"What, jail guard?"
"I'm not a jail guard!" LadySatamon screamed. "Why does every prisoner think that?"
"Because you're standing in the prison taunting us, perhaps?" Agumon asked.
"Whatever." LadySatamon snapped. "So you don't know your own heritage, tch, tch, tch. Not a very good angel, then."
"What are you talking about?" Tai asked. "I'm not an angel...."
"True. The Master did say something about that." LadySatamon said. "But, he still said. If you must know, he actually said that you and your sister are half-humans. Star children."
"Star Children?" Tai and Agumon asked in unison.

Hope you liked this first chapter. Straight into it! I don't know is LadySatamon is a real Digimon or not, but I didn't want to put LadyDevimon.
R&R please!
