Kari's wild adventures in the tamer's world.

Real World Southern Quadrant Shinjuku

It was a warm sunny day in Shinjuku Park. Takato and his friends were enjoying the summer off from school. They were all sitting around the shed in the park, playing the Digimon card game. Currently, Rika and Kazu were playing while the rest of the group, known as the Digimon Tamers, were watching their friends competing.

All of a sudden, the Tamers' D-ARCS went off, indicating a Bio-Emergence, meaning that there was a Digimon nearby. Everyone headed off to the site. When the group got there, they found a girl unconscious on the ground and no Digimon present. Takato turned the girl over and looked at her. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"Henry, am I seeing things? Is that Kari there on the ground?" Takato asked slightly shocked.

Henry turned his head to look where Takato was looking and he saw someone as well. "Takato, I must be seeing things, too. It looks like her, all right." he said with a concerned look on his face

Rika looked at her and was a little bit curious as to what happened to her.

Rika, with some annoyance, asked, "What do we do with her now that she's here?"

Takato was unsure, but he said, "I'll take her home with me to let her rest."

Henry suggested that they watch for any other digital disturbances that may occur. He wasn't sure what was going on. However, he was concerned as usual when it involved the Digital World.

Meanwhile, in the DigiDestined's world, the others were very concerned since they didn't know what had happened to Kari. Tai was very upset as his sister was missing. Izzy suggested that they all contact Gennai and Azulongmon to help them in their search.

Takato took Kari home, and told his parents that he was helping a friend by allowing them to stay over and rest.

"Takato, who is that? She doesn't look like any of the friends that we know you hang around with," his parents stated.

Takato wasn't sure what to say. He said, "Mom, Dad, the other Tamers and I found her after we got a signal for a Digimon."

His parents thought about it and they agreed that he would have to take care of her the whole time that she was there. Takato went up to his room and he got his bed ready for Kari to sleep on. His dad went with him, carrying Kari upstairs. Takato went to check to see if he needed anything to help take care of Kari while she was at his house, staying in his room.

The other Tamers came over later to find out how she was doing and talk with Takato about the digital field disturbance.

Takato nervously said, "Um, I'm not sure what to do about this situation. I only gained a little experience during the D-Reaper crisis. Would you mind helping me out?"

Henry nodded his head. "Sure, Takato. We wouldn't mind, would we?"

Henry looked around at the other Tamers in the group. They all nodded their heads, as well. The Tamers agreed that they wouldn't mind helping out Takato, their friend, with the responsibility of taking care of someone.

Rika asked, "Takato, are you sure you're going to be all right with her sleeping in your room?"

Rika wasn't as cold as she used to be. Rika had changed since her first meeting with the Tamers; she became a lot more caring as a person due to Takato's influence.

Takato noticed this and said, "I think that if you, Henry and Jeri help out, everything will be fine."

While all this was happening in the Tamers' dimension, the DigiDestined in their dimension were talking with Azulongmon in his palace, trying to figure out where Kari had gone to. Gennai told them that he had an idea that she may have ended up in another quadrant of the Digital World. Tai was anxious to get his sister back. Davis was just as worried as Tai. He couldn't believe that there were other quadrants of the Digital World. Izzy was surprised about this information, but he looked at Azulongmon and saw him appear nonchalant, as if he had known all this time about the other quadrants' existence. The DigiDestined decided to go there and look for her at once.

"Is she OK on her own without Gatomon?" Tai asked worriedly.

The rest were just as concerned about the situation.

Azulongmon said, "I will talk with the other Sovereigns and ask if they have seen her or heard anything."

He wanted to keep the knowledge of other DigiDestined teams a secret. Azulongmon wasn't sure that the DigiDestined could handle multiple teams and other real worlds where things worked differently. The DigiDestined set off to find Kari, their friend, as soon as possible, taking their Digimon partners with them.

Meanwhile, the Digimon who took Kari and somehow lost her was talking with an Icemon.

"I shall have a human partner to make me strong, and then we shall rule the universe," he said in an ominous voice.

This Digimon was very surprised that Kari had escaped capture so easily when he had an army to guard anyone that he kidnapped.

The Tamers were certain that they had an enemy to deal with; they just weren't sure whether it was someone new or not. Takato slept in the guest room and let Kari have his bed for the night.

The next morning, he waited until he thought that she was up and went into his room. Kari, however, just started to wake up as he was getting his things ready for the day. She blinked and then saw that she was in a room and there were drawings of people and what she could only assume were Digimon all around her.

Kari heard a noise. Turning her head, she saw a boy her age with brown hair and dark brown eyes looking for something. She shrieked and yelled at him to get out. Takato was unnerved by the screaming and he said, "Sorry," whilst getting his things and getting out of there. Takato came downstairs and saw the other Tamers that had offered to help him and had stayed over. They were awake now and looking at him in a certain way.

Takato became nervous due to the expressions that his friends gave him. He gulped and said, "I was just getting my things when Kari woke up."

Rika was shaking her head at him, and she said, "Stupid gogglehead."

Henry just sighed.

Terriermon had a devious look on his face.

He started to sing. "Takato and Kari sitting in a tree, K.I.S.S.I.N.G..."

"Terriermon!, can't you behave for once?" Henry yelled.

Terriermon shook his head. Kari, after having gotten over her rude awakening, got up out of the bed and got herself dressed and ready to go downstairs to see who had helped her out.
