Two Guys, One Night Part 2
I don't own Digimon…so there! But, I would like to work for them or another anime someday!
It was Friday, the day of the dance and exactly five minutes until school was out. But to Davis, it seemed like another hour. "Come on," he said under his breath, eyeing the clock, "I don't have all day!"
"Students, for your homework this weekend…." The teacher began.
All the kids began to groan.
"Homework?" Davis gasped, "today's the dance!"
"You'll have the whole weekend, Davis," T.K told him. He looked at the teacher, "so, what's the assignment?"
"I know you kids are all excited for the dance," he said with a grin, "Me too, so I'll be chaperoning."
The kids groaned again.
"Your assignment is to write a two to three page essay about the dance. How your date looked, what you wore, the songs you liked, didn't like, how fruity the punch was, everything!"
"Uh, can we use pictures?" Kari asked, her hand half-raised.
"Sure Kari," the teacher said with a smile, totally impressed, "a scrapbook, that would be nice! Pictures will be extra credit!"
Kari smiled back and turned to T.K, "I have to put this camera Tai gave to some use! I still have loads of film left!"
T.K leaned forward, "he gave you a camera to replace your whistle, huh?"
Kari giggled, "something like that!"
"Can this be a group project?" T.K and Davis asked the teacher in unison. Then they turned to each other as if to ask, "how'd you know what I was gonna say?"
The teacher shrugged, "I don't see why not. As long as you write your own essay, that's fine."
T.K laughed and crossed his arms and leaned to Davis, "are you expecting Kari to check your spelling for you?"
Davis' mouth dropped open, "Hey!"
The bell rang and the teacher went to his desk, "okay kids, go home, shower, get all decked out up for the dance! I'll see you there!"
"Decked out? But it's casual!" a student cried.
Davis laughed to himself, I've go the perfect outfit, he thought. Nothing T.A's wearing is going to surpass what I'm wearing! He gave T.K a wild grin.
I don't know what Davis is grinning about, but whatever outfit he's going to wear, it can't be better than mine! T.K thought, grinning back.
Kari grabbed her stuff and started to walk away, forgetting about Davis and T.K. Davis and T.K laughed at each other and then T.K realized Kari left, "Hey, wait for us!"
"Kari, we're supposed to walk you home!" Davis cried as he followed T.K outside.
"Oh, sorry guys!" she stopped and took their arms. "So, you want to work together on the project, huh?"
"Sure!" Davis said, "we'll write our essays and we can make a scrapbook."
"I'll take the pictures," Kari said.
"I can help with glitter and paper," T.K said, "it'll be fun!"
Kari was actually felt cool with having two dates to the dance. Some girls were going by themselves and others stayed home because no one asked them. She was pretty flattered that two guys liked her. She felt lucky. And she liked them back. Even Davis! But she shouldn't get too used to the idea. As much as she liked these guys, she didn't want to go with both of them to the prom!
"So, Kari," T.K started, "what are you wearing?"
"Huh?" she mumbled.
"Yeah, I mean, the color of your outfit."
"We need to get you a corsage!" Davis said.
"Silly boys!" Kari giggled, "this is a casual back-to-school dance, not the prom!"
"But don't you want flowers?" Davis asked sadly. "I thought girls liked flowers!"
"I do!" she smiled then shook her head, "Davis, T.K, you don't need to get me anything. Let's just have a fun time, okay?" she stopped at her house and leaned against the door. "Thanks guys, for walking me home every day this week." I can't believe I'm saying this! Wasn't Monday enough? She thought to herself.
"Hey," Davis said, blushing, "we've got to protect you from the digimon emperor. He's a real jerk…he's probably watching us right now!" his eyes went side to side.
"Davis is right, Kari," T.K agreed, well, at least I can agree with Davis on something! He thought, putting his hand out, "Whoever this digimon emperor is, I'm sure he's about as bad and powerful in this world as he is in the digiworld. We've got to keep our eyes open and our digivices ready."
Kari nodded, "yeah, I know." She looked at her watch, "well, I better go and get ready for you guys when you come pick me up." She pointed to her door.
"We'll be here, Kari," T.K started.
"At 7 'o clock, sharp!" Davis finished, pointing his finger at her in a form of a gun.
She opened her door and almost tripped because she was looking at them while going in, "Oh, uh, later!" she closed the door behind her and put her back against it. She let out a long sigh and put her hands on her face, "boy, do I wish Mimi were here! She knew more about boys!"
T.K and Davis kept walking and they talked about the digiworld. Davis, for some reason, started to respect T.K a little more. "How do you know so much about the digiworld?" he asked, rubbing his head.
"I was there, Davis," T.K said with a grin, "I was just a little kid at that time. It was kind of scary at first."
"Really? You were, scared?" Davis bit his lip to keep from laughing. It didn't work and he started howling with laughter.
"Davis, I was seven!" T.K grumbled, "and my parents were just divorced. I had a lot on my mind. And Patamon had trouble digivolving at first. Took him a looooooong time for him to finally digivolve into Angemon." T.K sighed, remembering, "and when he finally did, he went back into a digiegg."
"Must've took a lot out of him," Davis said thoughtfully, "is that why they de-digivolve?"
T.K nodded. "I guess it's a way to keep their power."
They continued to walk in silence and Davis finally said, "how did you meet Kari?"
I knew it would come to this sometime, T.K thought and sighed, "while we were in the digiworld, Gennai told us there was a new digidestined that would join our group."
"Who's Gennai?" Davis asked, raising an eyebrow.
"He's an old man that lives in the Digiworld. He saved our digieggs from Piedmon."
"Piedmon?"
"An evil digmon."
"Oh," Davis mumbled and nodded for T.K to continue.
"So we went back to Earth to search for the 8th child. Took us a while. We didn't even know if the child was a girl or boy." T.K laughed, "Gennai forgot Kari's name!"
"He must be really old!" Davis laughed along.
"And while we were searching for Kari, Myotismon and his henchmen were looking for her too. He put a thick fog all over the place so no one would get in and no one to get out."
"I remember that," Davis said, scratching his chin, "the fog just happened out of no where."
"I was away from everyone else and I heard about what was happening. I decided to go and help my brother and dad and I knew that the 8th child was there somewhere." T.K readjusted his shoulder straps of his backpack, "But we had trouble getting there because of the fog. But I saw Joe and we were able to get across the harbor to our friends with his digimon, Gomamon. He's kind of like our inflatable boat!"
"I got to meet these other digimon," Davis said, "and the other digidestined."
"Well, we ran into MegaSeadramon, another bad digimon. I fell into he water. I almost drowned and the next thing I knew, I was up on top and then Joe started drowning!"
"I hope MegaSeadramon got what he deserved!" Davis snarled, plummeting his fist into his hand.
"Oh, he did! Ikkakumon digivoved to his ultimate level and made sushi out of MegaSeadramon!" T.K laughed, "then we found another digimon, Wizardmon. He found the crest that belonged to Kari."
"Crest?"
T.K put his hand where his crest used to be, "there like special tokens…kinda like digivices that helped our digmon digivolve. They had special names. Mine was the crest of hope and Kari's the crest of light."
"Oh yeah, you mean, like the signs on the digieggs." Davis nodded, "mine had the crest of courage on it."
"That's Tai's crest." T.K confirmed and this his voice grew dim, "But then something bad happened. Kari gave her self up to Myotismon. We had to act quickly before she was destroyed."
"Man, she's got guts!" Davis said, putting his fist on his hip, "was she scared?"
"Hmmm, no, she looked brave to me. I mean," T.K laughed and shrugged, "she is Tai's sister and he had the crest of courage! Then Myotismon almost destroyed her and her digimon when Wizardmon stepped in front of the blast. Gatomon was very upset. She and Wizardmon were best friends."
"That's….that's awful!" Davis gasped. "Poor Kari!"
"She wasn't hurt. Gatomon digivolved and we put an end to that over-grown bat!"
They reached Davis' home first, "well, I'll meet you at Kari's!" Davis said with a wave, "later, T.J!"
"Good, and it's T.K!" he waved back and put his hands in his pockets, "just how hard is it to get two letters right?"
*************************
Kari was petting Gatomon and pondering about the last couple days. T.K's so sweet and nice and smart and funny and cute. She thought, and Davis is so hip and cool and brave and funny and headstrong, she daydreamed, holding her head up while she laid on her bed. She sighed and turned to look at her clock, "Oh man," she said, "it's 6:45!" she quickly jumped up, "I got to get ready, they'll be here in 15 minutes!" she hopped in the shower.
"I think Kari's nervous," Gatomon whispered to herself and smiled, "I'm happy for her!"
When Kari got out, she nearly knocked Tai over. "Oh, Sorry Tai!" she cried, holding her robe to her, "T.K and Davis will be here in a few minutes! I'm not ready yet!"
Tai rubbed his head, "since when has Kari been late for something?" he shrugged, "man, girls!"
Kari was looking at herself in the mirror. She turned and wondered about her oufit. She was wearing a casual sundress with yellow sunflowers all over it with a white blouse underneath, "Uh, Gatomon, what do you think?" she turned around and around, "is it me?"
"You look like a sunflowermon," she answered tactfully.
Kari frowned and turned to her closet, "oh, there's got to be something else in here!"
"I didn't mean that sunflowermons are bad!" Gatomon reassured her, "Kari, you look fine!"
"Really?" she looked herself over, "it's the color of T.K's crest…"
"Oh, so it's T.K you like more, huh?" Gatomon said, laughing again.
Kari put her hands on her hips, "Gatomon! I thought you already knew that!"
Gatomon hopped from the bed and put her paw and Kari's knee, "Kari, I'm sure that even in a paper sack, T.K and Davis will think you're beautiful. And if not, I'll still like you!"
"Oh, thanks, Gatomon!" Kari picked her digimon, forgetting that she'll get some cat hair on her dress. Kari heard the doorbell, "Oh, it's them!" she gasped. She started to finish her hair and put on the finishing touches of her lip gloss.
Tai went to the door and opened it to see T.K, wearing a shiny blue suit with a black under shirt, a gold chain, sunglasses and his blond hair slicked with gel, "Hi Tai!" he held a single red rose, "Is Kari ready?"
Tai almost started laughing, "T.K?? Whoa…I thought this dance was casual!"
"Yeah, I know," T.K groaned, "but I went to Matt and he told me to dress…well, sophisticated."
"Sophisticated? T.K, your brother's well, a singer in a rock group!" Tai laughed, "you look like you're going to a nightclub!" Tai looked back outside, "where's Davis? Aren't you both taking Kari to the dance?"
"Well, we didn't come together," T.K said, pulling his sunglasses up on his head.
"I'm ready!" Kari announced, walking into the living room. She took one look at T.K and gasped, "T.K! We're not going to the prom!" she laughed and walked forward to touch his jacket, "but, you do look handsome!"
T.K blushed, "thanks….you look very nice, uh, this is for you!" he handed her the rose.
The doorbell rang and Tai opened it to find Davis, the goggles gone from his head, replaced with sunglasses, a red suit a lot like T.K's and a silver chain and he too held a red rose, "Hey Tai, is Kari ready?" he turned to T.K and screamed.
T.K screamed too and pointed at Davis, "You're wearing my outfit!"
"I'm wearing your outfit? You're wearing my outfit!" (they look like the two brothers from A Night at the Broxbury! I love that movie!)
Kari laughed, "actually, T.K's suit is blue and yours is red," she corrected.
"But, but, we look like twins!" Davis and T.K cried in unison.
"Maybe I should've talked to the drummer in my brother's band instead!"
"My sister tricked me!"
Tai exploded into a laughing attack, "I'm sorry," he apologized, "Uh…no I'm not!"
Kari laughed too and put her rose down on the counter, "Hold on, let me get my camera!"
"Yeah, good idea, Kari!" Tai shouted after her and crossed her arms, "Man…I shoul'v given her a video camera too!"
"Tai, please!" T.K groaned.
Tai walked in between Tai and Davis and put his arms around their shoulders, "listen guys, I can tell by the way you're dressed that you want to make a good impression. It's your first date with my sister. I can see clearly that you like her."
T.K and Davis nodded.
"She's the cutest girl in school!" Davis said.
"And she's so nice," T.K added.
"But, if you get in a fight again and hurt my sister and make her cry," he pulled the guys close, "I'll hurt you and make you cry!!!"
T.K and Davis gulped, "Y-you wouldn't!"
"Try me guys," Tai said, "Davis, just because I let you have my goggles so you can be the leader in the digiworld, doesn't mean you are the leader of my sister. Act like a gentlemen, okay? and T.K," Tai looked at T.K, Man, I can't think of anything! He thought, I fought with his brother a dozen times and I can't think of anything! Oh, wait, "T.K, you're a nice kid, but if you start to act like your brother, well, you know what that was like don't you, buddy?"
Davis and T.K looked at each other like, he's going to kill us!
"I got it!" Kari announced.
"Uh, here Kari, this rose is for you!" Davis said, giving her the rose.
"Why, thank you Davis!" she said, taking the rose. She put it on the counter next to the one T.K gave her. She took a picture of Davis and T.K and then she asked Tai to take a few pictures of the three of them. Then Tai took the roses so he could put them in some water.
T.K looked back at Tai and then at the clock, "It's almost 7:30, we better get going,"
"Yeah, don't wanna be late," Davis agreed.
"Oh, bummer!" Tai said, putting the vase underneath the faucet.
"I'll be back before curfew, Tai," Kari promised.
"Okay, you have fun," Tai said and the winked and clicked his tongue as he looked Davis and T.K straight in the eyes and pointed to them with his hand in the shape of a gun, "remember what I said guys."
"What he'd tell you?" Kari asked.
"Oh, he um, told us to keep our eyes peeled for the digimon emperor," Davis lied, opening the door.
"Yeah, that's it!" T.K agreed with a nod, "Tai said that he thought he saw him earlier today."
"Don't worry Tai, with T.K and Davis as my dates, what will go wrong?" she asked with a laugh. She slid her arms into theirs and left.
Tai fell into the couch and laughed again. Gatomon came around the corner and jumped onto his chest, "I saw that, Tai!" she said, "I should use you as my scratching post.…but I thought it was so funny!"
Tai stroked Gatomon's fur, "just lookin' out for my little sister!" and then they laughed….and laughed…and laughed some more.
T.K and Davis were complete gentlemen. They both paid for themselves and split the cost for Kari. As they led her in, they all gasped to see the gym, once just basketball hoops and streak marks, it was covered with decorations. Giant pine trees made out of construction paper, beach balls, suns and lots of confetti, a bubble and smoke machine and other decorations.
"Wow!" the three said in unison.
"Hey, Kari!" Yolei cried, dragging Izzy behind her, "you look so cute! Oh, and T.K and Davis…you're twins!"
"Yeah," T.K and Davis grumbled, "thanks."
Izzy sighed. Wearing a white tank top with a blue Hawaiin flannel and sunglasses on his head, he looked like Ace Ventura, the pet detective. He felt odd in casual clothes. He wanted to at least wear a vest or tie, but Yolei and his mom made him dress casual. "Would either of you mind switching clothes?" he pointed to him and T.K and Davis.
"Izzy!" Yolei snapped, swinging her head to him, "you look fine!" she wore a red tee and blue jeans shorts with sandals.. She wore a white Hawaiin necklace around her neck (what are those plastic thingies called anyway?) and Izzy wore a green one. She picked up three random ones from a box and put them around T.K's, Davis' and Kari's neck.
"But, Yolei," Izzy murmured, "I feel so unsophisticated wearing this!"
"Come on Izzy," Yolei pressed, "it's okay!" she grabbed him and took him to the dance floor.
"Wow, is this just a dance, or a luau?" T.K asked, playing with his orange necklace.
Davis laughed, "well, whatever it is, Izzy doesn't like it much!"
It was a fast song, so Kari danced with both her dates at the same time. T.K held her left hand and Davis held her right. Sometimes she would dance in the middle of them and they would swing her. There were more fast songs in a row, but they kept dancing. Finally, the five fast songs in a row stopped and Kari put her hand to her head, "whew! I'm tired…"
"I'll get you some punch, Kari," T.K said.
"No, I'll get it for you!" Davis interjected.
"I asked her first!" T.K snapped at Davis.
"So?"
"So!"
"So!"
"Guys, stop it!" Kari cried, "hey, why don't you just go get yourselves some punch? I can get it later."
"You sure you don't want any?" T.K asked.
She nodded, "taste it for me," she said, "that way I'll know if it tastes good or not!"
T.K shrugged, "makes sense."
"Uh, okay," Davis mumbled, following T.K to the punch bowl.
Kari leaned against the wall and watched Yolei dance with Izzy. Izzy felt so out of place and he kept saying he was a bad dancer, but Yolei kept assuring him he was doing fine. She laughed to herself. "Poor Izzy," she said, shaking her head.
From the crowd, she saw a boy with bluish-black hair down his chin. He had intense blue eyes. He wore black slacks and a purple silky shirt with a black blazer. Kind of like the same outfit T.K and Davis were wearing.
"Oh my gosh," Kari mumbled, "It's him, it's that guy! And he's walking right to me!"
He reached behind him and pulled out a rose. He handed it to her and asked, "may I have this dance?"
"I-I-I," she stuttered. She was about to tell him no thanks and she's here with two other dates, but she saw how the other dancers were looking at her. She looked to the punch bowl. T.K and Davis weren't' there. Where are they? She thought.
"Sure she would!" Yolei cried, nudging Kari.
"Yolei?" she gasped, "I'm here with T.K and Davis!"
"Are you crazy?" she whispered, "he's gorgeous! He's smart and he's so mysterious! He might be another digidestined!" she pushed Kari into him. "What are you waiting for? Go for it!"
Kari took the rose and gave him her hand. He led her to the middle of the dance floor. He grasped her hand gently while he put his hand on her lower back. She laid hers on his shoulder. She smiled at him and couldn't look away from his eyes. Why do I have the feeling I've met him somewhere before? She thought. Everyone stopped dancing to watch Kari dance with Ken (that's his name, right?), the amazing boy genius. Mr. Perfect.
T.K and Davis were in the hall to escape the noise, having another discussion about the digiworld when Cody, wearing a green T-shirt and blue jeans, ran to them "hey, Kari's dancing with that genius kid!"
"Oh, that's nice, Cody," Davis mumbled, then dropped his cup, "she's what?!"
"You've got to be kidding!" T.K cried.
"I'm serious, guys," Cody said, "look for yourselves!" he pointed into the gym.
"Lemme at 'im," Davis snorted, walking to the gym, "Lemme at 'im! I'll teach him to dance with my girl!"
"Your girl?" T.K grabbed Davis' jacket, "I asked her first, y'know."
"I mean, our girl, our girl!" Davis and T.K stormed into the gym. T.K stopped in his tracks, "wow, Cody was right!"
"See, I told you," Cody said.
"Hey, you," Davis grumbled, putting his hand on Ken's shoulder and spinning him around, "Kari's here with me, er, I mean, us!"
"Yeah!" T.K said. "I don't recall this being a quadruple date, do you, Davis?"
"Nope, T.V," Davis said, "not at all!"
Ken smirked, "Hi, fellas. Nice outfits."
"Very funny," Davis groaned.
"Come on you guys," Yolei said, "she was only dancing with him."
"It's okay, Yolei," Kari said. "Two dancing partners is enough for me," she stepped in between Ken and Davis to keep from starting a fight. "Thanks for the dance," she said politely.
"Pleasure was all mine," Ken picked up her hand and kissed it.
"Oh wow!" Yolei gushed.
Kari stood still and silent. She watched Ken walk away. Kari shuddered and put her hands on her arms, rubbing them. She leaned against T.K
"Kari, what's wrong, are you okay?" T.K asked, putting his arm around her shoulders.
"What'd he do to you?" Davis demanded, "I'll teach him to---"
"I'm fine, guys," Kari said, "I just got very cold all of a sudden," she rubbed her arms again, "it was weird. I just got so…so cold." She shudder and exhaled hardly.
T.K took off his jacket and put it around her, "how can you get cold, it's like a hundred degrees in here!"
"I guess you don't want the punch," Davis said, "it has dry ice in it." He put an arm around Kari, "come on, maybe we should take her home."
"Good idea. She looks scared!"
"Guys, I'm fine, really," she said, "just cold."
"Let's go in the hall and sit until you get warm." T.K said, tightening his arm around her.
She nodded, "sure," she wrapped her arms around them and they led her in the hall. They sat next to her, sharing their body heat, but Kari was still shaking.
"Gosh, Kari," Davis took off his own coat and put it on her knees. "You're shaking like a leaf! Are you sure you're just cold?"
"Kari," T.K said in concern, "you look scared about something. What's wrong? Since your dance with Ken, you've been acting like you've seen a ghost or something."
"Nothing," she replied.
"Come on now," T.K pressed, "what is it?"
"You can tell us, Kari," Davis told her. He took her hand. It was cold as ice.
"Well," she said, "this is going to sound very strange," she paused, looking at her knees.
"We will listen to whatever you'll have to say," T.K said kindly.
"Go on, spill." Davis encouraged.
Kari sighed and lifted her head, "well, there's not much to tell, but would you believe, that I think I've seen Ken somewhere else?"
"Well, yeah, he's a celebrity," T.K said, "he's been on TV"
"No, what I mean is, I think I met him in person."
"Are you sure?" Davis asked. "He's never been here before."
"It must have been somewhere else then," she said, "but I'm certain I've seen him before. There's something about him, I don't know what, but it's like I know him. And…" she paused for a while and talked again, her voice shaking, "I'm sure he knows me too."
End Part 2. Turns out his was longer than I planned! There will be a conclusion, don't worry!
