Dngerous Waters

Kari Yagami sat as close to the bow of the motor boat as possible. She closed her eyes, enjoying the breeze.
"Having fun, Kari?"
"Yeah, TK! This is great!" she called back to her friend, a tall blond boy sitting in the middle of the boat.
"Thak Mimi! It was her idea!"
Kari smiled. Her friend, Mimi Tachikawa, was taking a trip to Japan from New York and decided to rent a boat for a day. All of the Digidestin were invited.
Kari hear a splash.
The breeze stopped as Matt, TK's older brother, cut the motor. He turned around in his seat and yelled:
"Tai! How many times have we told you not to jump off while the boat is moving?"
Kari sighed and went to the back of the boat. Her older brother, Tai, was hanging on to an inner tube tied to the back of the boat. He looked pleased.
"Aw, come on, Matt!" he yelled. "I was hanging on to the inner tube!"
"Fine!" Matt called back. "Hang on tight!" He turned on the motor again and made it go considerably faster than what they had been going.
"MATT!!!!!" yelled Tai, hanging on to the inner tube for dear life. Matt slowed down.
"You got what you deserved, Tai," said Izzy from the frint of the boat.
"Yeah, really," called Yolei from next to him.
Tai mutterd something that his father would not have been pleased to hear.
"Wash your mouth out with soap," said Ken, next to Kari.
"Shut it, Ichijouji," said Tai, climbing back onto the boat.
Ken just smirked.
"Hey," Tai, said Matt. "Which way do we go?"
"Umm.....west," said Tai.
"Which way is that? You're the one with the compass."
"To your left."
The group went west, talking and laughing for sometime.
"Hey, look," said Iori. "There are clouds comming. A storm."
"We'd better hurry back," said Joe.
"Which way, Tai?"
"Uh....I don't know."
"You don't know?" said Sora. Everyone looked at Tai.
"Well, the map was in my shorts when I dove over. Its all smudged, now."
"Perfect," said Matt. "Just perfect. We're lost, with a limited fuel supply, and a storm is comming."
"Wonderful," mutterd Davis. He looked up. "What's that?"
"What's what?"
"That," said Davis, pointing.
"Looks like a cliff or something."
"Land!"
"We can't dock on a cliff!"
"So, we'll follow it and eventualy we'll find a place that we can," said Ken.
"We'd better do it fast," said TK. "The storm's moving really fast."
Matt started the engine again and started towards the cliff. Then there was a sputtering sound.
Matt looked at the fuel gauge. "Uh-oh."
"Don't tell me we're out of fuel," said Kari.
"Fine, I'll lie to you," said Matt, just as the engine died.
"Shit! Shit, shit, shit,shit,shit,shit,shit," said Tai.
"What are we gonna do now?" moaned Sora.
Joe handed her a lifejacket.
"Get ready," he said, passing out the rest of them.
Kari had just finished fastening hers when the first wave hit. It sent the boat flying towards to rocks at the base of the cliff. Kari was nearly thrown out of the boat, but TK caught her.
"Hang on!" he said.
"Where's Joe and Mimi?' asked Tai, as another wave hit them.
"They aren't on the boat!" screamed Sora, as a wave washed over the deck.
Kari held on to TK tighter. She didn't like the idea of being thrown off the boat. When she opend her eyes, she couldn't see anything, not even TK. All she saw was grey water all around her, choking her. She couldn't hear anything. Not even TK when he screamed:
"ROCK!!!"
~*~*~*~*~
Tai moaned. The sun was in his eyes.
"Kari, get out! I want s'more sleep," he said, trying to sit up, only his bed sank under him. He opend his eyes all the way.
Water. Water all around him, as far as he could see. Except to his left.
"Matt!" he said. Matt had already been awake, and looked at him mournfully.
"You're up, at last," he said.
"Hey, Matt, why are in the middle of the ocean?"
"You don't remember?"
Tai closed his eyes and thought a moment. They were on a boat, and the storm came. A wave splashed up over the deck.
"I remember a wave comming up on the deck, but that's it," he said.
"Me too," said Matt. "I suppose that it washed us overboard. Lucky thing we stayed together."
"Have you seen anyone else?"
"No, haven't heard them, either."
"D'you think that we're the only survivors?" Tai asked, anxious.
"No, I don't." Tai noticed a cut on Matt's cheek.
"You're bleeding," he said.
"You've got a black eye and a cut lip."
Tai sighed.
"I wonder if Kari's alright."
~*~*~*~*~
Kari dragged TK up away from the water. The boat, she guessed, had hit a rock and broken apart. She and TK had been tossed about for a long, long time before another monster wave came and pushed them towards some sort of land. Kari had thought that they would die right then and there, but the wave instead carried them into this little cave. But the tide was comming in and they had no place to go.
She continued to drag TK's unconscious body farther into the cave. She couldn't see anything, so she didn't stop until her rear end hit something hard and sharp.
"Ouch!"
She reached a hand back to see what her cut her. It was a bad move. She ended up cutting her left hand.
"Jesus Christ," she mutterd, sticking as much of her had as she could into her mouth. She tasted blood.
She let go of TK and used her right hand to carefully feel the wall. It was a dead end, coverd in barnacles and seaweed. She cursed. That ment that the tide came up to here when it was high. No matter how for she stretched her hand up, the barnacles were there.
She cursed and felt along the wall. She could walk twenty feet to her left. She turned and walked twenty feet to her right. Then The wall gave way.
She reached further in until she tripped. She skinned her knee on even more barnacles.
The wall apperatnly had a natural ramp in it. Kari could walk up it. At the top there was a shelf, and she felt no barnacles. The tide didn't come up here. She made her way back down to TK.
"TK! Wake up," she hissed. "Hurry!"
"Mmhhh...Five more minutes,Mom..."
"TK! It's Kari! Wake up!"
"Kari? I can't see you. Its dark."
"I know," she said. "Can you move everything okay?"
"My knee hurts a bit, but I'm sure I can walk on it," he said. "And my head hurts."
Kari felt along his forehead until he gave a yelp. There was a bump.
"Come on. Stand up. The tide's comming in."
TK grabbed her hand and she pulled him up. Water was now around their ankles.
"C'mon," she said, pulling him towards the ramp. "Careful, its steep."
"Wha--" said TK, as he tripped. She heard him hiss as he cut himself on the barnacles.
"Come on!"
Slower than she would have liked, they made their way up the ramp. Once at the top they both colapsed on top of each other. Kari hit her head and didn't notice it when a faint light crept into the cave as she passed out.
~*~*~*~*~
Sora pulled herself farther into her little niche in the cliff wall. Her left leg she dragged behind her, unable to move it. She thought it was broken.
She looked back out at the water over the edge of the niche, no less than three feet from her. The tide was thankfully receeding. Ten mintues ago the waves came over the edge, threatening to wash her out, as they had Yolei.....
Sora sniffed. She and Yolei had hung onto their peice of wreckage until a wave washed it into the niche where she was sitting. She had seen TK,Kari, Ken, and Davis wash farther away from her, out to see. She hadn't seen Izzy or Iori at all. Tai and Matt had been washed over long before, as with Mimi and Joe. She wonderd if she was the only one alive.
She pulled her right leg up to her chest.
Rescue would come, she knew that. But would it come in time?
~*~*~*~*~
Davis woke up to find himself not in his bedroom. Instead, he was laying on something both very hard and very soft. He sat up and looked at what he had been laying on.
"Ken! Ken! Are you alive?"
Ken sat up and coughed.
"Barley. Thanks for getting off me, Davis. I was about to suffocate."
"Your welcome," said Davis. "Where are we?"
"Well, I remember something about our boat crashing into a rock, and we being tossed this way and that. I think this is where we ended up."
Davis looked around. It seemed to be a very small island, with rocky beaches. But the center, which was about ten feet in diameter, was green, and there was a tiny, dwarfed tree, stubbornly surviving the sea's harshness. He and Ken seemed to be on an oucropping of rocks, not far from it.
"Come," he said to Ken. "I'd rather sit by that tree then on these rocks."
He nodded, coughed again, and followed Davis down to the island. They both sat down by the tree.
"Aw man! My watch broke!" said Davis.
"Could've been worse,' said Ken. "Could be dead."
This shut Davis up.
"Where's everyone else?" he asked.
"Well, Joe and Mimi are somewhere out in the middle of the ocean, I'm guessing. Tai and Matt, too. But I have no idea where everyone else is, assuming that they're alive."
"I wonder if anyone's looking for us," said Davis.
~*~*~*~*~
Mr.Ishida stood by the edge of the cliff, not very far from where the boat had crashed. He peered out at the water with his binoculars.
"Seen anyone yet?" asked Mr.Yagami, close to him.
"Not a fuckin' thing," he said. "An hour and a half, and not on single fuckin' thing."
"Cursing won't help."
"Shut up, Natsuko," he snapped at his ex-wife. "I'm sorry. Fighting won't help now. We've got to get along."
She sighed. "Right."
There was a yell farther down the cliff. They ran to see what it was. They got there just in time to see the remains of Iori and Izzy be pulled up over the edge.
"Oh my....."
"Looks like they've been smashed up against the rocks," said Dr.Kido, examining them. He checked for a pulse, then shook his head.
"Dead," he mutterd.
"Are their parents here?"
"Not yet," said Mrs. Yagami. "Iori's mother and granfather are on their way, but Izzy's line is busy." She pointed to her cell phone. "I can't get through."
"Keep trying," said her husband.
Mr.Ishida went back to looking at the water, empty of bodies. He tried to keep the thought back, but it came anyways.
Is Matt like that?
~*~*~*~*~
Matt was tired and thirsy and hot and hungry. He had sunburn and felt a little sick. Plus, if Tai sang "1,000 Botles of Beer on the Wall" one more time.....
"Again," said Tai. "Come on, Matt! One-thousand--"
Matt punched him. Tai was thrown back in the water. He swam back to Matt, rubbing his face.
"Sorry," said Matt.
"That's okay. My throat was getting sore." Tai looked up and opend his eyes. "Either you punched harder than I thought, or..."
"Or what?" asked Matt, looking in the direction Tai was.
"A little island! There! Do you see it?"
Matt squinted.
"I do!"
Tai looked at him. "Wanna swim for it?"
"Beats staying in the water. C'mon!"
Matt paused a moment before going after Tai, wondering if anyone else was.
~*~*~*~*~
"Joe," said Mimi. "Joe, do you think anyone'll find us?"
Joe gave her a reassuring smile. "They will, don't worry. We'll be out of here soon."
Mimi tried to smile, but broke down crying instead.
"Mimi! What is it?"
"This is--all--my--fault!" she sobbed. Joe gave her a hug.
"It wasn't anyone's fault. It was an accident."
"But if I hadn't suggested--"
"Mimi, please. It wasn't your fault. Things happen."
Mimi continued to cry.
"Don't! You'll use up all of the excess water your body has!"
Mimi stopped.
"Sorry."
"It's okay."
They both realized that Joe was still hugging her. Her pulled away quickly, blushing.
"Don't worry. People are probably looking for us as we speak."
"The others, too," said Mimi. "I thought I saw Kari fall out. I wonder where she is now."
~*~*~*~*~
Kari stirred in her sleep. Something was wrong. Her bed was hard. Also, something heavy was on top of her. Then she rememberd.
Her eyes flew open. She was insde the cave, on the little natural shelf. It was now flooded with light. A way out.
She tried to sit up and realized what was holding her down.
"TK! Wake up!"
His eyelids flutterd.
"You're crushing me!"
He opend his eyes, blushed, and got off her.
"Sorry. I guess we fell asleep."
"Yeah. How do you feel?"
"Fine, I guess. But my knee still hurts."
Kari looked at it. It was swollen to twice its size and red, with numerous cuts from the barnacles. She looked back up at his face, and saw a large swelling above his left eye.
"You must've banged it up pretty good," said Kari, looking at her hands, cut from the barnacles.
"I can walk, but barley. C'mon, there's light over there."
Kari helped TK up and walked over to where the light came from. At first she didn't see it, because there was a stone wall in front of her. Then she raised her vision up about ten feet, where there was a little hole.
"Shit! How are we supposed to reach that?" said TK.
"I don't know," said Kari.
~*~*~*~*~
Sora sat huddled in the niche for a long time. It was cold, and she was hungry and thirsty and damp. She shiverd. The sun was starting to shine into her niche, and it helped, but now she was getting a sunburn. But worst of all was that she was alone.
She looked out at the ocean. She wanted somebody to come, anybody. Even an ax murdurer wouldn't be so bad. At leat they could put her out of her misery faster than starvation or hypothermia could.
She looked out to sea again. She thought that she had seen two little dots moving in the water, but when she blinked, they were gone.
~*~*~*~*~
Davis was grateful for the little tree. He was hungry and thirsty, but he had shade and wasn't sunburnt just yet. He might be soon, though. The sun was creeping higher and the shade was getting smaller. Ken was paler than him and would need more shade. Davis slowly manuverd himself so that Ken had more shade.
"You don't have to go and get yourself burnt because of me, Davis," said Ken.
"You'll burn faster."
"Doesn't matter. We're going to share the shade, and we're both going to get a little burned." He smiled. "all for one and one for all."
"Where's that from, anyways?"
" The Three Musketeers," said Ken.
"Never read it."
"I've surmised as much."
"Huh?"
"Never mind."
There was some more silence.
"I wonder when help will come?" asked Davis.
"Soon, I hope. I know that they've got a search team looking for us."
"Wonder if any of the others are saved."
"I'm not sure," said Ken. "TK and Kari should be close to us....I think I saw them."
Davis nodded.
