Chapter 1
Naomi sprinted to her room.
"You're the worst guardian ever" she screamed and slammed the door shut tight with a bang.
Naomi slid to the floor, her back against the hard, unforgiving door. She squeezed her eyes shut. Who was Anna to say where she had to live? She had no right to suddenly announce they were moving to Japan! Naomi's eyes started to sting. A single tear rolled down her cheek. Of course, she had every right. Her 20 year-old sister was now her legal guardian and what she says, goes. Surely Anna couldn't make her move to a new country though? More tears trickled down her cheeks. The answer was yes. Yes she could.
Naomi cried and cried. She had very good reasons for staying in England. One most of her friends were here, Two the rest of her friends were in Spain and at least England is somewhat close to Spain and Three she was rusty on her first language, Japanese, so that meant she would stick out at school there like a sore thumb. Naomi sniffed and crawled miserably to her bed where she stuck her bed firmly under her pillow and began to cry again. She had a third reason, one she did not say aloud to anybody as it was a secret. As she lay face down on her bed she could feel the hard form of her digivice digging into her waist where it was attached to the outside of her cherry red shorts. Her third worry was that if she moved too far away then her best friend would never find her again. This was her most pressing worry. This was the main reason she couldn't and wouldn't go to Japan. And the worst part, she couldn't even tell anybody.
Kari was in a bad mood, a very bad mood. It was so bad not even Tai, T.k and Gatomon combined could cheer her up. In fact they had given up a while ago and were now just focusing on making sure that Kari's mood didn't make the building around them burn to the ground. Kari was in a foul mood.
T.k sneaked a side glance at Kari who was now glaring at a bunch of little kids playing tag on the field in front of them. He sighed and smiled apologetically at the Kids. Sometimes it was hard being a good friend, Davis had cleared off this morning when Kari bit his nose off and hasn't come back all day. T.k chuckled, he hadn't actually thought of things that way. It was amazing that Davis wasn't here fawning over Kari like he usually is.
"What's so funny?" Kari hissed
T.k remembered then why Davis was staying away today.
"Kari" he asked instead of answering her question "Why are you in a bad mood today?"
Kari frowned and screwed up her nose a bit. She opened her mouth and then closed it again.
"I don't really know." She admitted at last
T.k looked up at the sky, pondering. He then stared in shock. Today was one of those gloomy days where the day was dark and seemed like continuous dusk. T.k had just assumed that a whole bunch of cloud was covering the sky, therefore blocking out the sun, but the sky was totally clear. Not a single cloud in the sky. Instead it seemed as if the sun itself had dimmed, casting faulty light all over the ground.
This can't be good, he thought to himself grimly.
Naomi was officially sulking. There was no way on earth she was going to move to Japan. She was thinking this however as she boarded the plane so there wasn't actually a lot she could do to stop it. She had to admit though she had done her best. It had been a hectic week, especially for her older sister who had to run around looking for her every time she had run away. Naomi sighed as she sat down in the economy seat next to Anna. She had had almost succeeded in her last attempt. About to board the plane to Spain using the ticket she had bought using the last of her savings, Anna had rushed onto the scene with airport security in the nick of time. After that Anna had kept her close, choosing to sleep in Naomi's room with her to avoid another escape.
Now Naomi settled down, it was going to be a long flight. She had plenty of time to plan her escape back to Europe when she arrived.
Kari was still in a bad mood and everybody at school would still not go near her. Therefore T.K was still babysitting her to make sure she did nothing she would later regret. This was a gruelling thankless task, even Tai, who owned the crest of courage, was too chicken to take up the challenge.
"Well, I don't go to school with her. Don't I?" Tai had told him.
"Yeah, well, you live with her, don't you?" T.K retorted
"Umm… I'm going to be out… umm….. Quite a bit….it's up to you Kiddo" with that Tai had left, Leaving T.K staring after him numbly.
"You know Patamon," he told the digimon situated on the top of his head "I think I just got drafted"
"What's drafted?" Patamon asked
"Never mind"
So now T.K was on babysitting duty. On the bright side though, the person he was babysitting was Kari, and that was something he guessed. After school he decided to take her to Izzy's house instead of unleashing her upon the unsuspecting digital world. The day's were still gloomy, that was the other reason T.K wanted to talk to Izzy. Is that even natural? He wondered to himself as he dragged Kari down the street.
By the time the two of them got to Izzy's house Kari was close to self destruction. Maybe she gets worse when she's outside, T.K thought to himself. It was almost true. As soon as they were inside the warm cover of the building Kari stood up a little straighter. T.K hadn't noticed but she had been walking slightly hunched over all the way from school. Her facial features also grew more friendly and relaxed. She sighed as if a burden had been released off her shoulders. Ok this was just a tiny bit strange, he thought, now he had even more questions for Izzy.
The first chance T.k got to talk to Izzy was when Kari went to the bathroom. T.K knew he didn't have long so begged Izzy to keep the answers short. After Izzy agreed T.K told him of Kari's bad mood and how it got worse outside. He also told him about the weird gloomy sky. With each passing minuite Izzy's face went further into serious thinking expression.
"Did you ever think these two events may be connected?" Izzy asked
"What do you mean Izzy?" T.K replied
"What I'm talking about is that the dark days may be connected to Kari's constant bad mood." Izzy explained
"How?"
"well, and this is just a theory but I think because Kari's crest is the crest of Light I think that she may be reacting to the lack of light at this present time. Also the fact that she gets worse outside does back this theory up but…"
"But she has never reacted to gloomy days before." T.K interrupted
"Yes, well this isn't an ordinary gloomy day now is it" Izzy continued "what if the gloomy days are actually an effect of something happening in the digital world."
T.k gasped. "But that would mean… the others... They're there right now! What if you're right? They would need help!"
"Who would need help?" Kari was back. She shut the door gently behind her and returned to the seat that she had had before. She leaned forward patiently waiting for an answer.
"Umm… Izzy was just explaining a theory about the gloomy skies to me." T.K conveniently left out the part about her in the explanation as he told her what Izzy had just said. He liked his nose; he didn't want it bitten off.
"What are we waiting for then?" Kari said "we should go and investigate what's going on" she stood up and marched to Izzy's computer.
"Wait!" Izzy cried "you don't actually Know if they need you! And besides, what do I say to my Mum?"
Kari returned to her seat.
"You're right Izzy" she dropped her head in her hands "I'm sorry guys. It's just I don't feel that great. The darkness feels as if it's suffocating me and I don't get any relief. I wish Gatomon was here, but she went back to the digital world this morning. She gave me a few excuses but I think the real reason is that I have been impossible to live with these past few days." Kari sighed
T.K looked meaningfully at Izzy. Izzy cleared his throat.
"I have a theory about your mood Kari" he said nervously. Like T.K he was rather fond of his nose.
"Really?" Kari looked surprised
Izzy explained about the gloomy days and her mood theory.
Kari frowned. "That explains a lot" she confessed "to tell the truth I've been feeling really bad about unleashing my bad mood on everyone. Perhaps now that I know what's wrong I can fix it?" She smiled at the floor already feeling a bit better.
"Maybe you have just been letting this dark feeling take over you a little" Izzy commented "if you Know about it then you shouldn't have any more trouble."
Kari nodded in agreement. The rest of the afternoon was somewhat better than the rest of the day.
