Chapter 2
"So Mimi what did you pack?" asked Joe, breaking the silence.
"Well, I packed several things. I brought pre-made dough to make bread. Condensed milk, peanut butter and jelly, pre-made cookie dough, apples, sips, and a pack of 8 jars of baby food. The baby food is actually pretty good and that is saying a lot for me. I have all of that padded by toilet paper. Then in the other bag I have my clothes, stationary, utensils, a pillow, and a few blankets. That's all I brought with me, now that we are prepared nothing will happen. Did anyone else think ahead?" asked Mimi.
"I did," said Sora. "I brought 24 bottles of water, gum, a baseball, crackers, a box of cereal, 8 packs of herbal tea, sugar and, some raw tuna."
"Why did you bring a baseball we don't have any gloves, helmets, or bats?" asked Tai.
"Kari, called this morning and said she could bring all of that," replied Sora. "Which is what I don't understand, how could she talk to me if she has Strep?"
"I have no idea," said Tai. "She looked sick, but she also just woke up. My parents said she had Strep. But she was just fine when she went to bed last night."
"Hey guys check this out Kari's online her instant message says:
Izzy get TAI!
Hurry! It is an Emergency! I'm not sick. Forgive my language but Mom is pissed that you left without me. Dad and Mom are taking me to camp now. I hope you get there before or after I do. You are in for it. G2G! Bye, see you soon. I don't think that this is…
She logged off before we could get the last word(s). If they leave now and get all green lights they will be there before us, all red after us and a mix of both, the same time," said Izzy.
Everyone's smiles dropped, Tai was puzzled by Kari's last sentence. It was not like her to end that way. TK started to cry because he liked Kari, she was and is a great friend. Mimi panicked then pulled out her cell phone and made a call.
That call went something like this:
"Hey, yes I would like the traffic control please. NOW before I get mad! DON'T PUT ME ON HOLD THIS IS A LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION!
Thank you.
Hello, yes can you do me a favor? It is for a life or death situation of two very dear friends, almost family. Okay, thanks so much here you go, all you have to do is put a red light on the corner of Magic Ave. and King St. and hold it for…
How long Izzy…
For five minutes, you can that's great thanks. What is your name, Jon thanks so much I'll put you on my Christmas list. You do know that by dong this you saved the life of a 15-year-old and his 10-½ year old sister. Have a good day.
Well, we're safe. We have a five-minute leave way. Okay?" questioned Mimi. She just nearly got that out before Tai came over and gave her a hug. "What was that for?"
"I have NO idea," replied Tai. "Just a spur of the moment type thing, I guess. Well anyway, Izzy can you get that Instant Message that Kari sent you back? So that I can read it and analyze it more thoroughly? I don't understand why Kari would end in the middle of a sentence, unless. Uh-Oh that means…Oh-Gosh we have to hurry Kari is in danger. Those aren't our parents!"
"Tai, calm down. If they aren't your parents then whose are they? And why is Kari in danger?" said Matt, half-mad and half-confused.
TK more dazzled then ever, fainted on the spot. The train woke him up shortly after though. It woke everyone up. There had just been a complete halt. The doors to car #5 opened and who to step in but Kari. She looked around then saw Tai and the "gang". She came over hugged Tai then Izzy, Sora, Matt, Mimi, Joe and kissed TK on the cheek.
" I thought that I lost you! What happened? Explain!" said Tai, with a relieved look on his face.
Kari replied, "Well, it all started this morning when I woke up. Like usual, I couldn't talk 100%. Well 'mom and dad' said that I had Strep throat. But… Those weren't our parents; they were computerized DNA clones I went to my closet to get my robe and a voice in my head [conscience] said to go to the linen closet. Then I remembered that, that is where I put it after my shower the other day. When I opened the door it creaked and I thought to myself boy we need some oil. But anyway, I opened the door completely and saw mom and dad bound and gagged on the floor. I untied their mouths so then I could talk to them but I couldn't get the other rope untied. They told me that some guy, who called himself Datamon, did this. I was then instructed to get dresses and e-mail Izzy. But before I went I was to re-tie their mouths. I finished that got packed for camp hid my bag got on the computer saw Izzy was on-line sent him an Instant Message. I was cut off because 'Mom' pulled the plug. She said I was too sick to be on the computer. I went to my room and she joined 'dad' on the deck. I took my and ran to the elevator, up the steps to Matt's and his father drove over the speed limit to get me here. We hit one red light, on Magic and King; it seemed to stay red for five minutes. But we got to the train station 30 seconds before it pulled out. I gave Mr. Ishida a hug and bolted for the train. Then I saw you; that is how it all happened."
"Wow, that's amazing," replied Mimi, being the only one that could talk. The blank look on everyone's faces scared Kari.
"I thought we killed him already." Said TK. "We did, remember?"
Kari turned around slowly and stepped backwards towards the safety of her brother's arms. "I already gave myself up to you once and I surely DON'T plan on doing it again. Got me, myotismon?"
"Kari, don't move, we almost lost you once-twice-several times, and we don't want to lose you again," said Joe speaking on everyone's behalf.
"Believe me I wasn't planning on going anywhere."
"Good!"
"Oh, Joe that was so responsible," commented Mimi. Hinting on the fact that she has a crush on him.
"Face turning as red as a tomato Joe said, "Thanks."
