Ebacusta: I hope you wait too long for this chapter. If you'll notice, the rating has gone up to PG-13. I don't have much of an excuse for making you wait so long for this chapter, except that play practice and businesses have been keeping me quite busy and no mimi angel I haven't given up on the story. I don't have much to say so………
Sora: SO, we should thank the people who reviewed the last chapter. This THANK YOU is directed to:
Rockie-chan
Mimi angel
Kara
Eowyn the Fair
Cari
SailorNeo
PuppKid
GatomonandKariFan
Angelz
Thank you so much.
T.K.: As there is much to say, we should move on to the disclaimer which…*unfurls a long banner* is right here.
(Banner): ebacusta does not own Digimon, Toei does. If she owned it, Davis would have given up a long time ago, and T.K. and Kari would have gotten married and had two wonderful kids and lived happily ever after but… as we can see from the ending, that didn't exactly happen now did it?
Ebacusta: That looks about right. Oh yeah, and to answer Kara's question, Tai didn't collapse because I had something more I needed him to do in the beginning of this chapter. Don't worry, I didn't forget.
T.K.: So, fic time!

Chapter 11
Please be Alive-The Powers of Lightening, Wood, and Water
---------------------------------------------------
Kari walked over towards the kitchen when suddenly the dark T.K. appeared in between them and her. Tai began to glow red and shot fire at him, but the dark T.K. simply moved out of the way. He blocked their sight of her. Kari gasped as the sword he had brought with him penetrated her skin and stabbed right through her stomach. She bent over part way her hands were shaking a few inches from the offending sword and her fingers were slightly bent.
Her eyes glazed over and the sparkle in her eyes disappeared. Blood was staining her clothes as her skin and face paled. Kari gasped, "Uh…uh…uh…" She fell backwards pushing the sword up and a little ways back through her. Blood poured from her onto the wood floor forming a pool. Sora who saw the whole thing looked on in horror. The dark T.K. turned and ran out of the room. Sora chased after him leaving the front door wide open.
"Stop!" Suddenly she began to glow sky blue and suddenly it began to rain on him. Lightening attempted to strike him. He teleported and she collapsed to the ground.
******************
Finally able to see, T.K. and Tai took in the scene in shock.
"NO!" T.K. screamed.
"NO!" Tai yelled at the same time.
-------------------------------------------------------
"Kari! Kari please be alive! Please!" T.K. exclaimed as he and Tai ran over to her.
"No! No! NO!" Tai yelled as he reached in his pocket and fumbled with his cell. This would take too long he decided and put it back away.
"What happened?" Mimi yelled as she, Izzy, Ken, Yolei, Willis, Davis, and Joe ran into the living room. "Oh my god!" she exclaimed before running over.
T.K. pulled the sword out and handed it to Tai who laid it carefully on the ground. He picked her up in his arms and ran with Tai, Izzy, Mimi, and Joe, who were behind him. He and the others sprinted down the hall and out onto the street. The sky was darkening with storm clouds. They were mobbed by girls.
"Out of the way! Out of the way!" T.K. yelled in vain. Tai, clearly getting more desperate by the minute, activated his powers once more. The girls backed off with screams erupting from their mouths as flame shot out of the ground. After that Tai collapsed. Joe stooped to pick him up and the group continued running.
T.K. panted as he ran on. Suddenly, a spike of ice flew at him. He ducked and searched wildly where it had come from. It was not that hard to find as a glowing person stood a few feet away. The next the group new, they were dancing out of the way of lightening, rain, snow, fire, and more.
"T.K. you and Mimi go on!" Joe exclaimed.
"We'll deal with these guys," Izzy finished indicating to glowing men they were surrounded by.
"Ok," T.K. nodded in agreement. He ran on forward dodging the various attacks aimed at him. Using his powers, he threw the men in front of him out of the way and on they ran.
Izzy glowed yellow and lightning flew from his hands. In the mean time, Joe, glowed a dark ocean blue, and water flooded the streets as Joe controlled it to knock away his enemies.
****************
"There it is!" Mimi exclaimed pointing ahead at the glowing sign of the hospital. It began to rain buckets. T.K. ran faster. His lungs felt like they were going to burst, but he continued on nonetheless. He and Mimi burst through the glass doors.
"Where is a doctor?" T.K. yelled. "I need a doctor NOW!" His hair dripped. Doctors rushed towards him.
"What's the problem?" one asked as a nurse ran off to get a stretcher. They retrieved it and ran back.
"My friend is dying!" he replied. The stretcher was rolled up to him. He lay Kari on it, and tried to stand upright. He couldn't something was holding him down. He looked and saw Kari's hand was wrapped tightly around a part of his shirt. He enclosed her hand with his and slowly she released him.
T.K. watched as Kari was wheeled away by the doctors and into the emergency room tears surfacing at his eyes.
"T.K. watch out!" Mimi yelled as a spike of fire shot at him. He fell to the ground just in time to avoid it. They turned around to see some more men standing there.
"AHHHHHHH!" they yelled as they ran towards them.
"AHHHHHHHHH!" Mimi screamed as she glowed brown and vines burst from the ground and windows trapping the men in leafy prisons. She paled as she collapsed, partly from fright and partly from exhaustion from both her powers and all the running.
T.K. picked her up slowly made his way outside back into the rain. Someone was standing there. The dark T.K. was leaning against a tree. T.K. lay Mimi down on the grass and stared at him with tears streaming down his face.
In a low voice, he growled, "You coward. How dare you! HOW DARE YOU! How dare you resort to such dishonesty! You are the scum of the Earth, AND I WILL MAKE YOU PAY!!" It started to rain harder.
T.K. swung his hand with such force that a gust of wind flew blowing off branches from the tree as it threw the dark T.K. into it. Suddenly, T.K. surged with power. With anger he glowed blue forming an ice sword, he lobbed it at the dark T.K. with amazing force.
The dark T.K. dodged. T.K. blasted a light beam at him. The dark T.K. was hit as he was not expecting the attack. T.K. formed more ice and threw at the dark T.K. "YOU WILL PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID TO HER!" BOOM! CRASH! Thunder cackled loudly as lightening lit up the sky.
The dark T.K. dodged but was to busy doing so, and fail to notice T.K. charging at him. He was brought down to the ground with a savage tackle from T.K. The dark T.K. looked at him as he felt the sword pressed closely to his throat.
"Why did you do it to her?" T.K. growled. The dark T.K. made no answer. "ANSWER ME!" T.K. roared.
"Why do you care?" the dark T.K. finally spoke.
"Because I love her!" T.K. replied in anguish. "I loved her more than anything else in the world, and you took her away!"
"Good, it's better that way," the dark T.K. responded.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?"
Suddenly, the dark T.K. began to cry, "I said, it's better this way. You'd be better off if she died. If she's dead, then she can't break you're heart like she did to me.
"What do you mean?" T.K. asked. He stopped crying.
" I know you're from another world, but the Kari that was in this world before you came, she rejected me. I fell in love with her and when I confessed to her my feelings, she rejected me. I know it was selfish of me, but when I saw her that first time when you fell into the Sakura tree forest, I… I just couldn't help it. Feelings of pain, rejection, jealously, and the need for revenge welled up inside of me… I wanted her dead for what she did to my heart. It's still lying in broken pieces at the bottom of a canyon."
T.K. looked at the dark T.K. Shakily he said, "But Kari didn't do that to you. The other Kari did."
The dark T.K. nodded, "I know but when I saw you, and the way you looked at her, I just knew that she would break your heart like the other one broke mine. So, I decided to kill her, and rid you of the possibility that she could do that to you. You don't deserve it, I didn't deserve it. But if I hurt you, I'm sorry. I'm really not as evil as you think. I just didn't want you to go through what I had too."
T.K. was shocked. "But I…"
"If you still love her and you want to tell her, wait until you know for sure that she loves you back. Wait for her to tell you first," the dark T.K. advised. He began to fade. T.K. was silent as he let the dark T.K.'s advice sink into his head. Just before the dark T.K. completely disappeared he yelled, "WAIT!"
The dark T.K. became solid again. T.K. opened his mouth and asked, "Who did she reject you for?"
"She left me for my real close friend, Davis. He told her first, and she realized that she shared his feelings," the dark T.K. confessed. (A/N. That was so hard to write. Kari and Davis. It pains me to think about it.)
T.K.'s eyes widened as the dark T.K. disappeared completely. Davis? That's who she would leave him for? Davis?
"Wait, come back," he whispered feebly.
"Don't worry. I'll come back," the no longer dark T.K.'s voice rang through the air. "I'll be back."
T.K. slowly stood up and picked up Mimi as well. After many trips, he finally was able to stumble into the bathroom and take a nice hot shower, before he stumbled blindly back to the hospital and into Kari's room, 304. He sat next to her bed for a while before he finally submitted to the darkness and fell asleep. His upper body drooped until it was draped across the bed, his head lying on Kari's stomach. The ex-dark T.K. appeared floating and overlooked the angelic scene of the two angels asleep.
