Chapter: Game of Chance

Disclaimer: Blah blah blah, still not owning!

Tai was very, very happy, and he had good reasons. His soccer team was now the leader in the entire league, with a record of 9-0. They had one more regular season game tonight, and then three weeks before the tournament. Another reason he was happy was because Sora was in the crowd cheering his name. Now this was nothing new, because at every game she attended she would do the same thing, but this was the first game she was able to make it too since they got together, so the big difference was, in other games she was cheering for her best friend, in this one she was cheering for her boyfriend. The third reason that Tai was happy was a very important one, Jimi had cleaned up his act and was back to top notch performance on the soccer field, the one downside was that he had avoided all the digi-destined because he was ashamed of what he had done to TK only five days ago.

There was someone in the crowd who was very disappointed, however. He sat with a hood on and a hat, he made sure that his face was hidden. He was surrounded by people that were known to be the people who you really don't want to talk too unless you have some serious guts. Well, this guy had some guts. You see most of his customers know him as Joshua Carlton Bore, or Josh for short, but not a person knew him as Chance Destin, the drug dealing, maniac who always seemed to keep his promises. He had a promise to fulfill tonight. You see, one of his best customers, a young man by the name of James Dacre had stopped drug-use all together because of his friends. Chance had made a promise on Monday to Takeru Takaishi, also known as TK that if he lost Jimi as a customer, that he would finish the job on TK that Jimi had started. He was obviously referring to killing the young blonde. He planned on carrying that out tonight.

Tai was prepared to kick-off the soccer ball he had managed to psych-out his opposing mid-fielders just by putting on a serious expression. The team that Odaiba was playing tonight, had trampled them last year in the first round of the post-season tournament, but managed to get destroyed by Kotoku in the very next round, with a whopping loss of eight to nothing. The players on the opposite team of Tai were terrified because of the fact that Odaiba had become legendary this year. Unless they manage to score six goals on Jimi, then Odaiba will shatter the all time record of least goals allowed in a single season, having only given up one goal. Odaiba also shattered the record of most points scored in a single season. Tai had 12, Davis had 16, Ken had 20, and TK had 6, not too mention that the other teammates had a combined score of 21, bringing in the season total at 75 an average of eight per game, their highest score was twelve against the worst team in the league. In that game each of the Digi-destined on the team had a hat-trick (Three goals in a single game.) It was incredible, The Odaiba Centurions had gone from the absolute worst team in the history of the league, to the all-time best. Everyone knew the biggest reason why they were so good though, and it was the reason that the other team's mid-fielders were so afraid, the biggest reason for Odaiba's success, was Tai. He had knowledge farther than anyone in the league, and his plays brought in score after score. It was also thanks to Tai, that the Defensive MVP of the league, TK, was on the team. And if you really think about it, then it was also Tai that caused Jimi to join, he was the one who kicked the ball that almost hit Sora in the face, he was the one who yelled "Heads Up" getting Jimi's attention to catch the ball, so it was because of him that, quite possibly the best goalie ever, had joined their team.

When the whistle sounded, Tai cleared the ball up-field and chased it all the way. The game was an easy one for Odaiba, Tai had scored immediately, TK kept the ball from reaching Jimi, Ken scored, The rest of the Defense stopped the ball this time, Davis scored, etc… Jimi was a bit disappointed that he didn't even get to touch the ball before half time. At half time the coach decided to mix things up a bit. Jimi and Ken would be switching positions, seeing as, when TK was in the Sweeper position, they had no worries about a goal being scored. Tai and Davis would be replacing the left and right Defenders, to give everyone a chance to score. During the second half of the game, Odaiba's scoring had slowed tremendously, but Jimi was able to get the ball in the goal twice. With one minute left, Jimi got a pass and kicked the ball with all his might. It went sailing into the upper left, Jimi got his first hat-trick. Odaiba celebrated the victory as it marked them as 10-0 giving them first place in the league with Kotoku right behind them at 9-1. The digi-destined decided to stay at the field to celebrate.

TK made a mistake he would soon regret, he decided to get a drink, by himself. He purchased his beverage but before he could even get the cap unscrewed he got pushed to the ground. TK felt a foot hit him in the side, and he was lifted into the air. He got pushed against the wall much like when he fought with Jimi, but this time it was by one hand and he was held by the collar of his shirt. He saw the face of the guy who's hand had him pressed up against the wall. It was Josh.

"Hello, Takeru, My name is Chance Destin! I told you that this was coming!" Chance said with an evil glint in his eye.

"Chance, I thought your name was Josh!" TK stated.

"My alias. It has served me well." Chance snarled, "You should be glad you got to hear my name before you die!" Chance flashed a switchblade in front of TK. TK shut his eyes to prepare himself, but he was dropped to the ground. TK saw the knife on the ground and when he looked at Chance, he saw on his back, the same person whom he had fought merely five days ago.

"TIGHT SPACES YOU CLAUSTROPHOBIC ASSHOLE!" Jimi yelled from on top of Chance, who was screaming and flailing his arms around like a madman. He tried to throw the blonde off of his back but couldn't. "TAI, MATT! HELP!!!" Jimi called.

Tai and Matt looked up and started running towards the distress call. They marveled at what they saw. Jimi was on the back of their new enemy, who was acting like he was throwing a tantrum. Soon all of the digi-destined were there. Kari ran to TK and helped him to his feet. Jimi jumped off of the now sweating Chance.

"It's over Chance!" Jimi yelled, "You can't beat all of us!"

"That was a mistake, Dacre," Chance snarled.

"No the mistake was on you, for messing with my friends!" Jimi retorted.

"You'll regret this!"

"The only thing I regret is ever speaking to you in the first place! NOW LEAVE BEFORE I DO SOMETHING DRASTIC!" Jimi had lost his patience. So had Chance he tried to rush at Jimi but got close lined by Tai. Chance got up and started at Tai, but Matt stepped between them and shoved Chance away. Chance all of a sudden started to laugh.

"You all just signed your death warrants! HAHAHA!" Chance laughed.

"Leave, Now!" Matt ordered.

"Or else," Tai added. Chance lifted up his chin and slowly started off. He looked at TK and shook his head, he stole a glance at Kari and laughed. When he was gone Jimi bent down and grabbed the knife that still lie on the ground. He started to walk away.

"Thank you, Jimi. You saved my life," TK said. Jimi stopped and held up a hand giving a thumbs up, before he disappeared into the shadows.

"TK, tell us what happened," Joe said.

"Chance attacked me, Jimi saved me. It's just what you saw." TK said, he straightened up his collar and looked at Kari. He gave a fake smile, it brightened up her world. "I told you nothing was going to happen didn't I?" Kari ran up to him and hugged him, she laid her head on his shoulder. She was so happy that he was still alive, and she was now convinced that nothing would happen to him. TK, however, was not so convinced. He was actually terrified about what had just happened, not because he almost died, but because he almost broke his promise to Kari, by nearly dying. After all of his adventures battling evil in the digital world, death was no longer something that scared him. He was scared though that killing him wouldn't be how Chance took his revenge. TK wasn't scared for his own life, he was scared for Kari's.
