Sailor Kari ~ Crest of Light
Chapter Two
Episodes Three, Four and Five
Episode Three: Perfect Transformation! Kari's Light Shines!
Kari woke up suddenly. She looked around and noticed that she was in her bedroom at home. Gatomon was curled up at the foot of her bed.
"But I thought I was in that place, the Digi-Kingdom," Kari whispered to herself. "Where did it go? How did I get back here?"
Gatomon had just awakened from her beauty sleep and she told her while she stretched, "It wasn't a dream, Kari. You were tired after the story so the queen put you asleep while I took you home."
"Was everything my mother said true?" Kari asked.
"Of course, it was!" Gatomon told her. "If it wasn't for her, you would never exist! She gave up her own life to save her people and you!"
"Wow . . " Tears started to fall as she remembered the events she saw yesterday.
She really did love me. . . Kari thought to herself, I am special, since I am this princess of the Digi-Kingdom! Weird!
Gatomon suddenly gasped as the gold bracelet on her tail began to flash several times. Kari stared at it curiously and asked, "What's wrong? Are you sensing danger?"
"Yes," Gatomon said, "It's time now!"
"Time for what?"
"For you to transform."
"Transform?!" Kari said in surprise. "What do you mean?"
"I'll show you," Gatomon performed some flips and somersaults as a pink stone-like locket appeared. In the center was Kari's symbol, The Crest of Light.
Kari's gaze was hooked on the pink locket. "Is this for me?"
"Of course it is! Queen Keri made it for your tenth birthday. But you're only eight, right?"
"Yes, that's right," Kari said as if she was possessed with the power of the crystal. A reflection of the locket's crest began to shine in her eyes.
I gotta snap her out of this, Gatomon thought. Maybe this will work, . . okay, I'll try it now!
"KARI!!!!" Gatomon yelled so loud that she made her jump almost to the ceiling."Now, repeat after me," Gatomon commanded to her, "Kari Light Power!"
"Okay!" Kari attached the locket to her and shouted, "KARI LIGHT POWER!!!"
Several seconds later, she stood in front of a mirror and screamed. She was wearing a pink sailor suit with pink boots to match. Her locket was in the middle of a pink bow on her chest. Kari wore a golden tiara with a pinkish diamond on the center of her forehead.
"What's happened to me?" Kari shrieked. "Where did this come from?"
"No time to explain right now!" Gatomon said to Sailor Kari. "Follow me! Hurry!"
"Okay!" Kari shouted happily to boost her confidence, "Let's go!"
~~~~~
"Help!!!!" A young girl's voice and scream pierced the sky around the park. "Help me!" Then she began to cry loudly with tears flowing from her blue eyes.
That voice . . . Kari thought, It sounds like . . . . No, it couldn't be . . . .
"Masaka!" Kari said to Gatomon. "That's my best friend! We've got to save her!"
"We?" Gatomon stared at her with a strange look. "You're the superhero, Kari! You are the only one who can save your friend."
"Oh," Kari sweatdropped, "Okay then."
She walked near the scene in the center of the park. A evil-looking digimon began to laugh like a madman and swong a hatchet near Masaka. She was tied up on a tree, screaming for help. The digimon started to attack the schoolgirl, but he stopped when he heard a voice. Kari's voice.
"Let her go, you force of evil!"
He turned toward the Digi-Scout and laughed. "HA! You pitiful little girl! You can't defeat me, the powerful one called Koujo!" He scratched his head with his wing-like hands and asked, "Who are you anyway?"
"I am Sailor Kari, the crown princess of the Digi-Kingdom! On behalf of the Digi-Kingdom, I will right all wrongs, create peace on all worlds, and triumph over evil, and that means you!" Kari said while posing so many times that it made Gatomon quite dizzy.
"Well then, Sailor Kari! I will defeat you!" Koujo gripped his hatchet and charged forward.
"Gatomon," she turned to the digimon, whispering, "what do I do?"
Koujo swung the weapon and it landed between Sailor Kari and Gatomon. They both gasped and turned to the humanized-bird-like digimon who grabbed another hatchet from his green belt pocket while he laughed some more (Koujo loves to laugh a lot, doesn't he? Hee hee. . .!) .
He ran to Masaka and dropped a green drop of liquid into her mouth. Her eyes glowed a spooky green as she was under the digimon's evil spell.
"Arise, my little one, and destroy her!" Koujo commanded.
"Yes, Master Koujo," Masaka said in the same possessed voice that Kari had in the crystal's spell. She rose and began to attack Kari. Her long blue hair began to turn into needles and started to shoot at the superhero and her cat digimon.
"NOOOOO!!!" Sailor Kari screamed as her crystal glowed brightly and formed a dome-shaped shield around her and Gatomon. Two human shadows and a small four-legged one gasped as they watched her begin to glow.
"Could it be?" The shadow with short hair asked the quadraped in a girl's voice. "Is she the one?"
"Yes," it replied. "She is the one."
The other girl with a ponytail murmured, "The Princess of Light."
Episode Four: Mysterious Stranger Appears! Sailor Kari Attacks!
Neither Sailor Kari or Gatomon noticed the spying trio around them. Kari still had a strong bright glow like her locket as she tried to save herself from her friend and Koujo. She began to feel very weak after several minutes.
"Don't give up, Sailor Kari!" Gatomon told her.
"I . . . can't . . ." She said as her strength began to leave her body. The pink dome shield, the locket's light, and her own light slowly faded away. Due to the loss of her light, she weakly collapsed to the ground near Gatomon.
"Kari!" Gatomon shook Sailor Kari's body, trying to wake her up. "Wake up, Kari! You can do it! Come on!"
"I'm . . . too weak, Gatomon,"
Kari said in the cat digimon's mind, "My light is . . . losing power . . . I need . . your help. . . Help me, Gatomon. . ."Koujo laughed at the sight. "You don't even have enough power to defeat me!" He turned to Evil Masaka and commanded, "Now, my child, finish them! NOW!"
Masaka nodded and charged; her hair sharpened themselves, ready for the kill. Gatomon turned and screamed. Suddenly a beam of yellow light shot out from the sky and landed in front of Koujo and Masaka.
"HUH?" They said, staring at the landing point of the beam. It was a diamond arrow with a yellow rose on the end that was facing up. They looked ahead of them and saw a masked young boy wearing a black tuxedo and hat. He had a long yellow cape, blowing in the breeze. He stood between them as he began to speak.
"Stay where you are!" He pointed to the two evil doers. "You mustn't harm the Princess of Light!"
"Princess of Light?!" Koujo asked, "That child is no princess! She's just a little schoolgirl!!"
The mysterious boy blocked Sailor Kari and Gatomon with his yellow cape as Masaka charged again. He created a strong shield to make the possessed schoolgirl's attack miss. It worked very well! He walked closer to Kari's body and kneeled beside her. Lifting her head up, he bent over and kissed her on the lips. It soon ended and amazingly, Kari's brown eyes opened slowly.
"Who are you?" Kari asked, with her powers recharged.
"I am Tuxedo T.K, and I will be with you when I am needed. You can do it, Sailor Kari! Just believe in yourself and you can defeat them!" He told her.
"Okay! Thank you!" Kari said as she stood up and posed in a fighting position. Then she whispered to Gatomon, "What do I do now?"
"Just say, 'Light Crystal Elimination'," Gatomon whispered back.
Sailor Kari performed a back flip and a whirl and repeated, "Light Crystal Elimination!"
A crystal of light darted at Koujo and landed on his chest. Suddenly, he had been deleted and Masaka fell to the ground. Kari ran to her friend and held her in her arms. Masaka's eyes were closed, and she was out cold.
"Her energy is gone," Gatomon told Kari, "I don't think there is anything that we can do to save her. ."
"No. . . ," Kari cried softly. Her crystal flashed several times, and Kari thought of an idea.
She took off her glowing pink crystal and held it in the palm of her hand. Please let this work, Kari said to herself, I can't lose Masaka. She's been my best friend in the whole world! Please don't leave me, my friend. Kari then placed the locket gem on her friend's chest. It glowed, flashed, and soon, Masaka was illuminating with a pink glow.
"Huh?" Kari gasped. She turned to Gatomon and asked, "What's happening to her?"
"I guess the crystal is restoring her lost energy!" Gatomon answered cheerfully.
As soon as the glowing stopped, Masaka began to awaken from her coma-like sleep. Before she woke up, Kari returned to her schoolgirl form and ran to check on her friend.
"Hikari-chan," Masaka said weakly, "where am I?"
"You're okay, Masaka-chan," Kari told her. "What happened to you?"
"Well, I was walking to your apartment to meet you before our summer class, and then this big monster thing that looked like a cross-dressing bird captured me." She leaned towards Hikari and yelped, "I'd never been so scared before! But," she paused, "a beautiful girl in a pink sailor suit saved me!"
"Wow!" Kari said (She was trying not to blow her cover, so she was really faking it. Very badly!), "I wish I could have seen her for myself!"
"To tell you the truth," Masaka remembered, "she looked a lot like you, Hikari!"
"WHAT?!" Kari freaked out, "How can anyone look like me?!"
"I dunno, Hikari-chan," Masaka looked down at her watch and gasped, "But right now, we need to get to our class! We're gonna be late if we don't run!"
"Okay! Let's go!" Kari shouted. Then she whispered to Gatomon, "You go back home until I get back from school. If you want, you can scope the town for the other two scouts!"
"Sure!" Gatomon turned around and said, "Ja ne, Hikari-chan!" Then Gatomon ran to the Kamiya's apartment.
"Come on, Hikari!" Masaka-chan yelled at her when she noticed that she was the only one walking to the class building.
"Coming!" Kari said as she charged near her friend.
She didn't notice that the same four-legged shadow was watching her from a nearby tree. Its horn flashed a bright blue and it murmured softly, "So, the crown princess has been found. I must tell Gatomon that the others are here too."
It leaped down the tree, sniffed around, and found Gatomon's scent. "Bingo!" It replied.
Then it followed the trail to find the white digi-cat.
Episode Five: Keeper of Sincerity Enters! Hikari-chan Falls in Love!
"Gatomon!" The shadowed creature called to her.
"Huh?" Gatomon faced the creature and smiled. "Vixemon! Is it really you?"
"Yep, it's me! I haven't changed one bit, and neither have you!" Vixemon was a small, royal purple fox digimon with a tiny blue horn on her forehead. On the top of her forelegs, some of her fur formed a purple flame-like shape.(If you want a better description, look for one of my Vixemon pics!) "So, have you found the crown princess yet?"
"Yes, I have," Gatomon said, "What about you? Any luck finding the remaining two?"
"Well, I've found them, but they're both at a summer class."
"Have they both transformed?"
"Yes, they have, and they saw you and the crown princess battle this morning. You have done well, I guess." Vixemon told the cat.
"The Keeper of Sincerity is ready to meet the princess soon, right?" Gatomon asked, "She is ready to battle?"
"Yes, Gatomon. She will meet her very soon."

If you want to know
: Neko-Kites are something that I made up. Neko-Kites are kites in the shape of cats! Neko is Jap. for cat! nuff said!Hikari and Masaka were walking back to the park to fly their new Neko-Kites that a new girl gave them. Lots of the other girls were flying theirs too, including the new girl. She was walking nearby, so they decided to say hello.
"Hey, Mimi!" Masaka greeted, "Konnichi wa!"(Konnichi wa means "Hello")
"Hi, Hikari! Hi, Masaka! How are you? Do you like your Neko-Kites?"
"I love them! Thank you, Mimi!" Kari bowed. "You must be a millionaire to afford all of these, or you must be a collector!"
"I am a big collector, Hikari-chan!" Mimi said in her pink uniform. "They cost a lot of money, but my parents have a big mansion down the street, next to the Neko-Chan Company. They make the kites, and we buy them fresh from the factory!"
"Wow! That's awesome!" Some girls said in the background as they listened.
"Come on, everybody! Let's fly!" Mimi shouted happily as she pulled out her custom-made Neko-Kite with lots of pink. Soon, the sky seemed to be painted with vividly colored Neko-Kites.
~~~~~
In the Evil Digi-Verse Realm . . .
Vilemon sat on his dark throne, thinking of an idea to get plenty of energy to attack the other world, Earth. Suddenly one of his henchmen, Jasimon appeared with news. He was a red jaguar digimon with evil all around him.
"King Vilemon! I must ask you something!" Jasimon shouted. "I have a perfect idea to get the energy from the humans!"
"How?" Vilemon asked.
"I've noticed that many human teens like these Neko-Kites!" He pulled out a snapshot of a group of girls and their kites. "Maybe if we can sell our own version of them, we can suck the energy right out them! What do ya think, boss?"
"Hmmm..," Vilemon paused, " Excellent idea, Jasimon! Now get ready to transform!"
Jasimon glowed as his body turned into a handsome teenage boy. He ran to a closet and dressed into a red saleman's suit. When Vilemon said that he was ready, Jasimon (his human name is Akai, which is Jap. for red since he is only wearing red!) walked through the dimensional warp to the park where the girls gathered.
Seconds after he arrived, Akai saw some girls walking towards him. He didn't notice who they were.
It was Mimi, Masaka, and Hikari. When Kari saw him, her heart seemed to flutter. The other two girls stared at her with big eyes.
"Wow . . . ," Hikari said as hearts appeared in her red-brown eyes. "What a cute guy!"
"Who is he?" Masaka asked. "He must be new here."
"Why don't you talk to him, Hikari-chan?" Mimi dared her. "Go on!"
"Okay, I'll go," Kari said, blushing pink, "You are mine, adorable!"
Hikari floated closer to Akai with her eyes closed. Suddenly, she bumped into a young boy about her age. When she opened her eyes, Hikari realized that she bumped into the most popular guy in town.
"Takeru?!" Hikari gasped. "I'm sorry I bumped into you!"
"I wonder who you were blushing about!" Takeru laughed. "I hope you weren't blushing at someone in your dreams, Little Light!"("Little Light" is Takeru's nickname for Hikari!) Then he chuckled and walked away with his blond hair shining like a ray of sun.
"Why does he call me that?" Kari said.
"Because he likes you, little girl," Akai replied, answering Hikari's query.
Kari turned her head and said nervously, "Hi there!"
"Hello, beautiful," he said to her. "The name's Akai. You must be Hikari, right?"
"Yeah," Kari answered. "How do you know me?"
"A secret, I cannot tell." His short, red hair blew in the soft breeze as he said, "Do you like Neko-Kites? I have brand-new ones on sale for a dollar each!"
"ONE DOLLAR NEKO-KITES???!!!!" Groups of girls shouted loudly as they ran towards the booth where Hikari and Akai stood. Hikari was almost trampled to death by the crowd of girls that included Masaka and Mimi. In a matter of seconds, all of Akai's kites were sold out.
Why does this guy know me? Kari thought to herself. I've never seen him before, but . . , She stared at Akai, blushing, he is really cute! She said good-bye to Mimi, Masaka, and Akai before she headed home.
Later in the evening . . .
Lots of girls were still flying their kites, and Mimi was one of them. Suddenly their kites glowed and flashed as they began to sap each girl's energy. When their strength was gone, each one fell to the ground as Akai put them under his evil spell. Mimi was lucky enough to escape from her new Neko-Kite's grasp. She ran to an alleyway and met Vixemon and Gatomon there.
"Hey Vixemon," Mimi pointed to the cat digimon, "Is this really Gatomon?"
"Sure is!" Vixemon answered.
"So," Gatomon said, "you are the Keeper of Sincerity: Princess Mimi."
Mimi nodded as an imprint of her crest appeared on her forehead. Gatomon smiled happily as Hikari ran to the park as Sailor Kari.
"Okay, Mimi," Vixemon said to her, "It's time for you to meet the Princess of Light. There she is!" She pointed to the park where Sailor Kari stood, battle ready.
"I have my crystal with me, Vixemon," Mimi said. "I'm going to transform!!" She held her green crystal up in the air as she shouted, "Mimi Sincerity Power!"
Back to the park . . .
Sailor Kari saw the many girls that had lost their energy, and then she saw a familar face with red hair.
What?! Kari freaked out. Akai is a part of the evil Digi-Verse?! No wonder he knows who I am! And he was so cute too! She sighed unhappily.
"Sailor Kari, I will destroy you! For I am really," Akai turned into his true form, "Jasimon, the red jaguar digimon! As soon as you perish, the entire universe will feel the strength of the DigiForce!"
"No way!" Hikari said. "That will never happen, Jasimon!" She stepped back and said, "Light Crystal Elimin--" She had tried to attack, but Jasimon stretched his tail out and got her tied up in it. Then, to her surprise, he began to take away her energy!
"HELP MEEEE!" Sailor Kari yelled.
"Let her go, Jasimon!" A familar girl's voice commanded.
Jasimon refused and a new Digi-Scout appeared. It was Sailor Mimi, and she looked a lot like Sailor Jupiter from the show "Sailor Moon". Gatomon and Vixemon were there too.
"All right, Jasimon! You'll be sorry that you messed with us!" Sailor Mimi cupped her hands underneath her transforming crystal on her chest. Flowers appeared out of nowhere as she shouted, "Sincerity Flower Beam!"
Jasimon's grasp on Kari loosened, letting her escape. She ran to Sailor Mimi and thanked her quickly. Then the crown princess completed her attack.
"Light Crystal Elimination!!" Her attack was so powerful that it blasted Jasimon back to the evil Digi-Verse.
"Excellent job, Hikari!" Sailor Mimi congratulated. "Yes, it's me, Mimi from our summer class!"
"I know! I remembered that one of my sisters was you!" Kari hugged Mimi around her waist.
Gatomon introduced Vixemon to Kari and told her the good news about the search for the last remaining princess.
"Sora lives nearby, Hikari," Gatomon said. "Vixemon has already found her, and soon enough, she will finally show herself to you."
"I hope so, Gatomon," Kari said. "When we are all united, we will have peace on all worlds, and Vilemon and his evil Digi-Verse will be gone for good!"
