Disclaimer: Okay, I have to change my disclaimer. Don't ask me why, I just have to. My
bizarre personality demands change and creativity. I can't help it! I was born that way!
Anyway, unless someone decides to sell it to me (which is unlikely because few people
know who I am and I have no money), I do not own Digimon and I never will. There,
happy?

Author's Notes: You guys are great! I got six reviews within six hours! Incredible! So,
like I promised, I shall now continue with the story. I got some reviews asking about Tai
and Sora, and if I was going to elaborate on them. My only answer: OF COURSE! Taiora
is my favorite couple! Although Takari is a very close second. Anyway, what the hell am I
doing? Nobody wants to hear my rambling. I'll just. . . I'll just go.

Chapter Two-Whatever Title Sounds Good to You


"Hey squirt, where've you been all day?" Tai's tone was typical of him.
"Nevermind, Tai. Would you please excuse me? I'm in a hurry." Kari reached for the
doorknob.
"Yeah, whatever," he said. "Say did you hear what happened down at the school
gym?" She paused, her hand resting on the knob.
"No, what happened?" she asked.
"Some weirdoes dumped an entire vat of kool-aid all over the floor. It's a mess.
Everything's all sticky, and some of the floorboards are warped." He laughed. "They had
to postpone the game for a while."
"Oh no!" wailed Kari. "Tonight was my one chance with T.K.! What am I gonna do?"
Tai tried very hard to hide his smile. `Oh this is too perfect!' he thought. `Who
would've thought she was planning something for tonight, too? She's in for a pleasant
surprise!' Out loud he said, "Don't worry Kari, everything will turn out okay. You'll see.
Well, I'm gonna go take a walk, see-ya!" With that, he headed off to where Kari had left
Sora and Yolei standing.
Tai walked over to where Sora was on the porch. Yolei had already left, knowing that
Kari probably wasn't going to come back out.
"So, how do you think it went?" Sora asked.
"Well, if I know those two, I think it went pretty well," Tai answered her.
"They're so cute," Sora said with a smile. Then she shivered. "Brrr! It's cold out
here!"
"C'mere," Tai said, and he slipped his arm around her. "Better?"
"Yeah, thanks." She smiled.
"Well, I've got a feeling I won't be welcome in there for a while. Wanna go get
something to eat?"
"Yeah sure, let's go." The two of them then headed down the stairs, and down the
street to go eat and have some fun while they waited for Tai's apartment to be habitable
again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"That was the best plan ever Tai!" Sora said as she sipped at her milkshake.
"Wasn't it? It's about time those two got together."
"I'll say. They've been looking at each other with googly eyes ever since T.K. moved
back into this neighborhood."
Tai laughed. "The only problem now is how they're going to clean out the gym."
Sora's eyes went wide for a moment. "So, what exactly did you guys do? I mean, I
know the basic story, but I want details, and we're not leaving until I get them," she said
in a mock-threatening tone.
"Well, it happened like this," Tai began.

FLASHBACK
T.K., Tai and Matt were hiding behind a row of bushes, looking on at the school gym.
Behind them was a giant vat on a flat cart that was so big it took all three of them to pull.
"C'mon you guys, the coast is clear!" Tai waved them out and they started pulling the
vat across the field.
"Man, this thing is heavy!" moaned T.K.
"Let's just hurry up before somebody sees us," said Matt.
"Okay, we're here!" said Tai as the rolled up to the giant doors on the side of the gym.
They were there so big equipment could be carried in and out. How convenient. "Now, for
our secret weapon!" Tai pulled out a chain of keys. "As captain of the soccer team, I've
got my own keys to the gym!"
He opened the giant doors, and they rolled in the vat. They pulled it in, and over to the
end wall. They stood there for a moment and surveyed the gym.
"Are you sure about this, Tai?" T.K. asked.
"Of course I'm sure! You've gotta be free tonight, right?"
"Yeah, but."
"Aww quit worrying, little bro. They'll have it fixed up in no time. Besides, I've always
wanted to do something like this."
"Yeah, me too!" Tai said with a laugh. Now let's hurry up and do this before
somebody sees us and we get caught!"
"All right," T.K. conceded. "One more question, though. Where did you guys get all
this?"
"My band has connections," said Matt simply.
"All right, enough chit-chat," said Tai. "Everybody ready? 1.2.3! Let her go!"
At that, they dumped over the vat, sending who knows how many gallons of red kool-
aid spilling all over the gym. It was an unbelievable sight. It was splashing everywhere,
and it got all over the bleachers and everything. The three boys looked on in wonder.
"Wow! That was awesome!" exclaimed Tai.
"Well bro, looks like you're free tonight," Matt said with a grin.
T.K. had a very happy look on his face. "Thanks you guys. This really means a lot to
me."
"Well hurry up will ya?" Tai was trying to get them out of there. "You've gotta get
changed, and then we've got to set up the apartment. I'm going to ask Sora to keep Kari
busy for a while."
"What are we waiting for then?" Matt asked as he gestured towards the door.
"Gentlemen?" The three boys exited, taking one look back on their handiwork.
"You know?" Tai thought out loud, "I think that would've been fun to do anyway."

END FLASHBACK

Sora was cracking up. "Oh, you guys must've had so much fun! I can totally see you
doing that just for the fun of it!"
"Speaking of fun," Tai looked at his watch, "We've probably got a few more hours
left. Whaddya wanna do?"
"Well," Sora got a mischievous grin on her face, "I've got an idea! Come on!" She
jumped up, grabbed his arm and started pulling him out of the restaurant excitedly. Tai
barely had time to reach into his pocket and throw some money down on the table.

"Hey Sora, where are we going?" Tai yelled as Sora pulled him down the sidewalk at a
run.
"You'll see!" she had a fantastic grin on her face. She continued to pull him along until
they arrived at the park. By this time it was starting to get dark. She stopped when they
set foot upon the grass. She spoke to him between breaths.
"Remember how much fun we had here when we were kids Tai?"
Tai recalled the memories with a smile. He and Sora used to play in the park all day
long. They would chase each other, climb trees, sometimes play soccer, he remembered it
was some of the most fun he'd ever had.
"I thought it would be fun to go for a walk here and relive some of that," she said.
Tai smiled again. "That's a great idea, Sora!" He noticed her shiver again and he put
his arm around her shoulder once more. They walked along through the park, which was
even more beautiful after the sun had gone down. The stars were starting to come out, and
it was forming into a very nice, clear night. They walked along the top of a hill that they
used to roll down when they were little. Suddenly a thought occurred to Tai.
"You know, to anyone watching, I bet it looks like we're dating!" He laughed, and she
giggled a little.
"You dork!" she said teasingly and gave him a little shove. The shove was a little
bigger than she thought, though. Tai lost his balance and began tumbling down the hill.
When he landed at the bottom, he lay on his back and laughed. Sora was laughing too.
"I'm sorry, Tai!" She was still laughing. "Are you okay?"
He looked up at her and snickered. "Now you have to roll down too!" he joked. She
just laughed and shook her head.
"No way!"
"If you don't, I'll come up and push you down!" he said, pretending to be all
intimidating.
"Oh you will, will you?" She had her hands on her hips.
"Uh-huh! So you might as well just roll down now and save yourself the trouble!"
"All right! But if I hurt myself, you're in big trouble Taichi Kamiya!" She threw herself
down the hill. When she got to the bottom, she rolled right into Tai, who was still lying on
the ground. They both started laughing again. It was just like old times.
"You know," Tai said as he looked at her when she started to get up, "nobody but you
could ever get away with calling me Taichi."
Sora smirked at him. "I know." She sat down on the grass to his right, and then leaned
back and settled her head on his stomach. Tai put his hands behind his head and the two of
them stayed there for a while and looked at the stars.
After a time, Tai looked down at his best friend and noticed she was asleep. He smiled.
`She's so cute when she asleep,' he thought. He hated to wake her, but he knew that they
had to be getting home, and he couldn't do that without rousing her in their current
position. He shook her arm gently and whispered, "Hey Sora, wake up!"
She blinked a few times. "Hmm?" She looked over at him. "Oh, hey Tai."
"C'mon, we'd better get going," he said, still speaking softly. Sora looked at her watch
and then pouted a little.
"Oh, I guess you're right." They helped each other up, and then started walking out of
the park. It was colder than ever, so Tai put his right arm around her shoulder again, and
she slipped her left arm around his waist. They walked off down the street together
toward Sora's house.
When they got there, Sora gave him a hug and then fished out her key. "I had fun
tonight Tai, thank you." She said as she smiled warmly at him.
"Me too," he replied, answering her smile with one of his own.
"Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow then, goodnight." She gave him a kiss on the
cheek and entered her house.
"Goodnight." Tai watched her go in, and then he turned around and headed toward his
own home, the smile still firmly cemented on his face.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When Tai arrived at his apartment, he noticed many of the candles were still lit. He
looked around and saw Kari and T.K. cuddled up in a chair. One look at them made his
mood even better. `It's a good thing Mom and Dad are out of town for the weekend,' he
thought to himself with a chuckle, `I'm not sure how they would respond to this.' He blew
out the rest of the candles and went to his room. On the way over to his bed, he
subconsciously looked over at the picture of him and Sora that was sitting on his night
stand and sighed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sora walked across the room and flopped down on the couch with a happy sigh. She
hadn't had a night that much fun in a while.
"Sora? Is that you?" Her mother's cry came from the other room.
"Yes mama!" she sounded a little whimsical.
"Did you have a nice night?"
"Yes I did mama!"
"Was that Tai I heard out there?"
"Mm-hmm." She was already starting to fall asleep again.
Her mother noticed just from this short conversation that her daughter was in a bit of a
daze, so she decided to simply let her be.
"Goodnight then, sweetie!" she called and then returned to her own room.
"Goodnight!" This utterance was barely above a whisper, and hardly had Sora said it
than she fell asleep on the couch with a dreamy smile upon her face.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next day was Saturday, and the whole gang gathered at their favorite restaurant
like they did every Saturday. Everyone was there except for Cody and Davis, who hadn't
arrived yet. They were sitting in the same circular booth they always sat in, and were
awaiting the delivery of their food. Matt sat on the outside, and then it proceeded
clockwise as follows: Izzy, Yolei, Ken, T.K. with Kari on his lap, Sora, Tai, and Joe sat on
the other end. Everyone was talking about the events of the previous day.
"So you guys really dumped an entire vat of kool-aid all over the gym?" Joe couldn't
believe it.
"Yep!" said Tai in a tone that let everyone know that he was proud of it.
"And nobody caught you?"
"Of course not, Joe! If they did, do you think we'd be sitting here talking to you right
now?" Everyone laughed.
"Well I'm happy for you two," Izzy said to T.K. and Kari.
"Thanks, Izzy," they both answered at the same time. They gave each other a kiss.
"Well you knew it was going to happen sooner or later," said Joe.
"That's true," replied Izzy. "But I've got to admit, they were taking so long about it
that it was starting to make me nervous."
"What, were you worried she'd end up with Davis?" Tai joked. Everyone laughed
again.
"I guess now all we have to wait for is these two," Izzy said as he pointed to Tai and
Sora who at the moment were playfully bantering back and forth. As soon as he said that,
they stopped and looked at him. Everyone else looked back at them.
"What are you talking about Izzy?" Tai asked.
"I'm just saying that it's obvious the two of you are going to end up together
someday."
"I agree with Izzy," said Ken with a grin on his face. It was an expression rarely seen
on him a year ago. Tai and Sora blushed, but before either of them had a chance to say
anything, there came a shout from the other side of the restaurant.
"Hey T.S.! Get your hands off of my girl!" They all looked over too see an enraged
Davis standing in the doorway of the restaurant. "I can't believe you! I can't even be a few
minutes late without you trying to make the moves on Kari!" He charged over to the table,
but Matt and Joe got up and stopped him.
"Davis! Calm down!" Matt yelled at him.
"Calm down!? Tell your loser brother to leave my girl alone!"
T.K. and Kari looked at each other nervously. "Well, we had to tell him sooner or
later," T.K. said.
"I know," Kari acknowledged, "but I haven't been looking forward to it." The two of
them looked over at Davis, who was still trying to free himself from the grips of Joe and
Matt.
"Davis, we have something to tell you," Kari said. The goggled youth looked stopped
struggling and looked at Kari. He noticed she was holding T.K.'s hand. "T.K. and I are a
couple," she finished. Davis just looked stunned.
"I'm sorry Davis," T.K. began, "I know how you must feel, but-"
"Just leave me alone T.C.! All of you! Just leave me alone!" He ran back out of the
restaurant as fast as his legs could carry him. Matt and Joe sat back down, and everyone
had a concerned look on their face. A few minutes later, their food came and they started
to cheer up again. T.K. and Kari took to feeding each other, and Sora and Tai started
stealing each other's food, which prompted a secret and snickering conversation between
Izzy and Matt. That's what was going on when Cody finally arrived. He took the seat next
to Joe, and ordered something to eat from the waitress.
"Hey guys!" he greeted them once he sat down. "Sorry I'm late! So, what did I miss?"
Yolei couldn't contain herself. "T.K. and Kari are a couple Cody!"
"Really!? That's great! Oh, not for Davis." Everybody looked a little upset again. Joe
was the one to save Cody and break the silence.
"So, Cody? Where've you been lately?"
"Well, I was sick yesterday, and today my grandpa wanted me to practice a little extra
before I came out, sorry."
"No that's okay Cody," Ken said. "We're just glad you made it."
Sora looked at her watch. "Whoa!" she exclaimed when she saw what time it was. "I'm
sorry guys, but I've gotta go. I promised my mom I'd help her out today. I'm sorry I have
to leave right when you get here Cody."
"No, that's all right Sora. You've got things you have to do, just like I did."
Sora got up to leave and Tai got up with her. "I'll walk with you Sora."
"Thanks, Tai. I appreciate it." More snickering from Izzy and Matt. Ken winked at
Yolei who giggled. Fortunately, neither Tai nor Sora noticed any of this. As they said
goodbye to everyone and left the restaurant, T.K. got to thinking.
`Hmmm. Maybe those two do have something between them,' he thought with a
mischievous grin. `I owe Tai big. And what better way to pay him back?' He gave a slight
chuckle. He had no more time to think about it though, for Kari leaned in and kissed him
once again.


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

Kari's relationship? Why did Tai want to leave with Sora? Was he just being a good
friend? How many more questions can I come up with? Find out next time, on the next
