Summary: TK and Kari are pretty much 'the perfect couple' in their sophomore class and two of the most popular kids in high school. But when someone from Kari's not so long ago past moves to Odiaba, will "the perfect couple" stay "the perfect couple" or will everything come to a crashing end?
You Save Me
'You Save Me'
(don't own Kenny Chesney either)
TK, Patamon, and Gatomon traveled through the portal and landed on top of a rock hard cliff overlooking the dreary beach.
"TK," Gatomon said as she got up off TK and Patamon. "Promise me we never do that again!"
"Agreed," Patamon said as he got up off of TK.
"What is this place?" TK asked after he got up and wiped the dirt and sand off his clothes. As he looked around the gloomy dimension, he blinked several times to make sure he was not going crazy. TK saw the beach and the ocean but everything was in black and white. There was not a speck of color to be seen. Even his brightly colored blue t-shirt, the one Kari gave to him last Christmas, was black and white.
"I've heard about this place," Gatomon replied. "I think its called the Dark Ocean."
"This place creeps me out," said Patamon as he looked down at the beach below to see something slowly moving across the sand. "What is that?"
TK walked over the edge of the cliff to see what Patamon was talking about. Immediately TK recognized the object. "It's Kari!" Kari was laying in the sand to tired to move as the Scubamon got closer and closer to her. "We have to save her!" TK exclaimed and reached down in his pocket for his digivice. "Shit! I don't have my digivice!"
"I thought this would come in handy." Gatomon told him and held out his digivice.
"Thank you so much Gatomon!" TK said relieved and turned to Patamon who quickly digivolved into Angemon. Angemon swooped down and attacked the Scubamon, keeping them away from Kari. TK and Gatomon quickly and swiftly climbed down the cliff and ran over to Kari. He gave Kari a hug, thankful she was alright. The embrace magically restored Kari of her strength and energy.
"TK, oh thank God you're here! I was sooo scared!" Kari told him, trying her best not to cry.
"It's going to be alright now." TK replied to her and held her tighter
"Kari ,I need to digivolve! There are too many of them for Angemon to fight alone!" Gatomon informed her.
"I don't have my digivice! It's in my backpack!" Kari panicked.
"We're toast! I don't know how much longer he can last!" Gatomon replied as she watched Angemon getting ganged up on by the Scubamon. Although they were weak, there were too many for Angemon to fight alone.
"You don't need the digivice to digivolve to ultimate!" TK remembered and Gatomon nodded her head.
"Gatomon digivolve to..." But the digivolution didn't work. "There is something wrong!"
"I'm scared," Kari confessed."I don't want you to get hurt!"
"I need ya to believe in me Kari! I'm not gonna get hurt! Believe in me Kari, believe in me!" Gatomon begged her. Kari knew she had to let Gatomon fight or they'd never get out of here. She nodded her head yes, letting Gatomon know she could join the battle. "Gatomon digivolve to ... Angewomon!"
There were so many Scubamon, Angemon and Angewomon struggled to destroy them. The Scubamon screamed Kari's name, begging her to save them from the two angel digimon. While Angemon and Angewomon were distracted fighting the Scubamon, one Scubamon snuck up behind Kari and TK and grabbed her. Kari screamed as the Scubamon tightened its grip, pulling her away from TK.
"You guys asked for my help and you tricked me! You stole my strength and energy! What do you guys want now?" Kari yelled at the Scubamon while she tried to wiggle loose from its grip.
"Let go of her you creep!" TK yelled at the Scubamon.
"We want you to be our queen! We need you!" The Scubamon told her.
"I don't want to be your queen!" Kari replied and screamed again.
"Let go of her!" Angewomon demanded. When the Scubamon didn't listen, she shot an arrow at the evil digimon, purposely missing him.
The Scubamon let go of Kari and walked away from her. All the Scubamon retreated and walked away from TK, Kari, Angemon and Angewomon. They walked backwards into the dark and mysterious ocean, never looking away from Kari. TK, Kari, Angemon and Angewomon stood there confused as they watched the Scubamon surrender.
"We thought you would love to be our queen. With your power, you could lead us in the battle against our undersea master! But, I guess we were wrong..." the Scubamon told her before he disappeared into the ocean.
"I'm ready to go home," Kari said when the last Scubamon was completely submerged in the water. "It's been a long day."
"Me too," TK replied.
"Angemon and I will go search the cave to see if there are any more Scubamon," Angewomon said as she dragged Angemon with her.
"TK...thank you so much for saving me. You're always saving me. You save me in so many ways that I can't even save myself." Kari said as she looked up into his deep blue eyes. "I'm the worst girlfriend ever."
"Maybe," TK replied, restraining himself from letting Kari know how he really felt at this very moment. TK knew Kari felt bad enough already, she didn't need to hear how upset and angry he was with her. "Kari, I know about you and Willis."
Kari's face turned white as a ghost. She couldn't believe TK knew about it. Although she sorta kinda figured he did, it still shocked her to hear him admit it.
"Oh TK, I'm so incredibly sorry!" Kari cried, "I never meant to hurt you!"
TK's eyes were full of hurt and anger. He stared at her, looking for the right words to say but couldn't find any.
"You probably hate me." Kari said as she tried not to cry. "I wouldn't be surprised if you wanted to break up with me. No boyfriend deserves to be treated like the way I treated you."
"Kari," he softly said as he put his finger on her lips. "Remember what I said to you last year after snowball and again what I said to you when we were kids?" Kari nodded her head yes. "Although I'm not happy about this whole situation, I could never hate you cause I love you Kari."
Kari started to cry again. She couldn't believe how calm he was about her sorta, kinda cheating on him. She expected him to flip out on her and chew her out but he never once raised his voice to her.
"I mean every word Kari. All my love for you could never make me hate you." TK continued, "I'm not happy about you sneaking around with Willis. I'm actually really pissed at you. I'm upset with you but I still love you. There is no other girl I want to be with. You are the only girl I truly love."
"I love you too TK!" Kari cried again, "I'm so sorry about this whole thing."
TK took his hand and wiped away her tears. He smiled at her which made her smile back. He leaned in and gave her a soft, passionate kiss on the lips. After a few minutes, Kari broke the kiss.
"Am I really going crazy or is this place black and white?" Kari asked.
"You're not crazy. All I see is black and white too," TK answered.
"Good, cause I was starting to wonder for a moment there," Kari replied and forced out a laugh. TK laughed along with her.
"Hey you two! Are you ready to go home?" Angewoman asked as her and Angemon came walking up to them.
"Yeah, I've had enough of this place for one week!" Kari replied.
"Could be worse...we could be scrapping gum at school" TK joked and Kari laughed.
"It's good to hear you laughing again Kari. You sure had us worried." Angewomon said as she wrapped her arms around Kari. Angemon did the same with TK and they flew up off the ground. They flew high up into the sky and through the portal TK, Patamon and Gatomon had came through.
"Me too," Kari replied. "Me too."
