A ball covered in black and white patches lay on green grass. It stayed there for a few seconds, and then a shrill whistle split the air, and the madness began.
A shoe came in right behind the ball, a shoe with many spikes on the bottom, and kicked it, sending it flying. It sailed forwards until it bounced on the ground, and another pair of shoes began dribbling it back the way it had come. It got a quick kick sideways, and came to another pair of feet who continued to take it back up the field.
Then another foot kicked the ball from those currently in possession and went back the way the ball was originally going.
If you can't tell by now, you're hopeless.
Davis was playing in a big playoff soccer game, and had invited the other Digidestined to come watch him. A few of the original ones couldn't come; Matt had band practice, Sora was helping her mom with something, and Mimi... well, she was in America.
But everyone else was there, cheering on Davis' team. Tai was definitely the loudest, proud as he was of his protegee. Everyone other then him cheered normally, slightly embarrassed by his... exuberant... displays... Of course, Kari was jaded to this sort of thing, and cheered almost as loud as him.
Which ticked T.K. off REALLY bad.
*Stupid Davis,* he thought, *he's not even doing well, but he's managed to get Kari to cheer for him. Bastard...*
As he heard her cheering for him, Davis turned to the stands, smiled, and waved at Kari... and promptly got nailed in the face with the ball. As he lay on the ground, eyes spinning, he could hear Kari giggle, "Silly Davis..." He made an effort to get back up, but got trampled by all the other players trying to get to the ball. Kari laughed even louder.
*Grrrrr...* thought T.K..
*****
Everyone was congratulating Davis, after the game, on how the goal he'd scored at the last second had turned a horrible loss into... a slightly less horrible loss.
"That was awesome, Davis!" said Yolei. "That was a great goal! And you're real good at heading those balls!"
He laughed. "Um... y-yeah... heh heh..." He'd gotten quite a number of balls in the head, but none of them intentionally. They'd all been accidents. "All that practice must have paid off--"
T.K. snorted. "Yeah, right." *What a dumbass! I can't believe they let him on the team!*
Davis turned to face him. "And what's wrong with my game now?"
Before they could start arguing, Cody intervened. "Look, could you guys not argue just for tonight? I want to get home before midnight..."
They all laughed, though T.K. and Davis were obviously faking it.
*Why does Davis have to be such a moron?!*
*Why does T.K. have to be such a stuck-up ass-hole?!*
*Why's he looking at me funny?!*
*Why's he looking at me funny?!*
Kari looked at both of them, and seeing that they'd gone into another stare contest, sighed and walked away. Noticing her lack of presence, Davis ran after her. "Hey Kari, wait up!"
Everyone dispersed then, though T.K. just stood there, seething inwardly at Davis' mannerisms. *Man, why won't he just give up on Kari! Doesn't he realize that Kari could never like an imbecile like him? But yet he succeeds... the bastard.*
His thoughts continued along this line for quite some time.

Somewhere in a dark void, a voice rang out to no one in particular.
"Da de dum dum... I get no kicks from champagne..."
Another voice interrupted.
"Hey, man! What's up?"
"Mhm, mhm, nothin' much. Just tryin' to think o' somethin' to do."
"Why don't you have some fun with anime?"
"Look, man, I ALREADY tried writing some stuff, but nobody liked it... mhm, mhm... stupid infidels... maybe I could check if they're still burning in my own personal hell--"
"No, man! I mean actually tweak a series and queeren it up."
"I like, I like, mhm, mhm. Explain."
"Well, you take some anime universe... then you choose the characters you want to mess with... sorta like the fic you tried making..."
"Shut up."
"Yeah, yeah. But you get the idea, right?"
"Sure. What should I do it in? Mhm mhm."
"Well, I can only say that you'd better not screw up Nadesico. Or EVA. Or--"
"How about Digimon? I could work with that. Yeah! Stupid Davis... mhm mhm... funny though... and I could get them to end--"
"Look. Don't tell me what you're going to do. Especially if you're doing... Digimon. Ugh, I'd shudder, but I'm not solid right now..."
"Aw, c'mon! EVERYBODY likes Digimon!"
"No! NO!! STOP IT!!!"
"Mhm, mhm... right. I'll get started right now. See ya."
"Ahem... um... yeah. Peace."
