The Unknown Return

T.K's Decision

Sitting outside his brother's rehearsing studio, T.K started to think about the past. It was hard to believe it had been ten years since Davis and the others had joined the digidestined.

T.K had come to the studio to talk to his brother about something really important. But this was the only time Matt had to spend with his brother because he was getting ready for a big concert in town in three days.

One Hour Later

"Hey T.K sorry that took so long, you know how my rehearsals go," Matt said.

"Yeah no problem bro. Are you still going to hang out with me tonight?" T.K asked

"Did you even have to ask? You're my brother T.K, I'll make time," he replied.

"Okay let's get out of here," he pleaded.

"Okay let's go."

The two brothers spent the night just hanging out and talking about how much they missed going to the Digital World and how much they missed their digimon. Then T.K finally got up enough nerve to tell his brother what was on his mind.

"You know that Kari and I have been going out for two years now, right?" he said.

"Yeah so what?" his brother replied taking a sip of his pop, and eating a handful of chips.

"Well…. You know that…. I um…. Love her too, right?" he stuttered.

"Uh uh," he said shoving another handful of chips into his mouth.

"Well I've been thinking hard and I…. um I'm going to ask her to marry me," he finally said. Matt began to choke on the chips he was eating. When he finally cleared his throat, he caught his breath and turned to his brother.

"Way to go bro! When are you going to pop the question?" he asked.

"I haven't really thought of that but I do have the ring," he replied, scratching his head at the question.

"Really, let me see it," Matt said.

T.K got up off the couch and walked over to the door of his small apartment, he reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a small blue, velvet box. He took it over to his brother and gave it to him.

Matt opened the velvet box and looked at the ring. It was a gold ring with a strange multi coloured stone. "What kind of stone it that?" Matt asked, looking curiously at the beautiful glittering stone.

"I don't know. I found it years ago, just after we lost our crest and had to leave the digital world. I thought it would sort of remind Kari of the Digital World, seeing how we haven't been there in six years," he told his brother.

"Cool!" Matt added.

"Hey Matt, do you think you can make it to my birthday party tomorrow night?" T.K asked.

"I'll try T.K, but there are no guaranties," he said regretfully. "Hey wait a minute, what am I saying of course I'll be there, because all the others are coming and besides, I have a great idea," he said excitedly.

"Oh yeah, what's your great idea?" T.K asked inquisitively.

"Why don't you ask Kari at your party?" Matt suggested.

"I guess I could. Actually that's a great idea!" he replied. T.K sat back and thought about how he was going to ask for Kari's hand in marriage.

**************************************************

The next night in T'K's apartment on the west side, the digidestined, both old and new, had gathered together to celebrate T.K's 20th birthday.

T.K was pacing the bathroom, building up his confidence and rehearsing what he would say and how he was going to propose as he looked in the mirror. All of a sudden, he heard a knock on the door.

"Hey T.K, are you going to spend your whole birthday in the bathroom?" It was Tai. Tai had taken some time off from his soccer career and he and his wife Sora couldn't be happier to be back together with the digidestined.

"No Tai, I'll be right out," he called out. "Okay," Tai responded. T.K took a deep breath and exhaled. Okay I can do this, he thought. He opened the door and stepped into the room where all his good friends had gathered to wish him a happy birthday. Matt walked up to him and told him Good Luck and gave him a thumbs up. Just after they had cake and started telling stories of the good old days, T.K thought, well I guess I better do this. He swallowed hard, and then he noticed Matt giving him looks from across the room, telling him to get it over with.

He walked over to Kari and Yolie were standing and talking, and gave Kari a kiss on the cheek. "Well how does it feel to be 20 years old?" Kari asked him with a smile.

"Yeah, how does it feel to be the oldest of the 'new' digidestined," Yolie said mockingly.

"I think it's highly overrated," he said with a laugh. He took Kari's hand and let her over to the far end of the room. "Kari, there's something I want to ask you … um …" he said with a wavering voice.

Kari smiled encouraging, "Yeah, what's that?" she said looking his eyes.

"Kari, you know I love you right, … well what I'm trying to say is… um…" he stuttered, he took a deep breath, pulled out the blue, velvet box and said, "Kari will you marry me?" as he opened the box.

Kari stood there breathless, T.K was concentrating so hard on her answer he didn't even realize that everybody in the room was listening for her answer. "T.K I.. I don't know what to say except…. YES!!!" she exclaimed. The whole room exploded with cheers as T.K slipped the ring on her finger.

As soon as he got the ring on her finger it began to glow! Small streams of coloured light shot from the tiny jewel, each different shot towards one of the digidestined. All the different colours shot into the digivices and they began to react. Just then when everybody thought it couldn't get any weirder, the computer in the corner began to glow with a bright light.
