Disclaimer: AAAAAHHHHHH! I forgot one of these thingys in the last chapter. Please don't sue… unless you really want the some of the few items I own. They may not be worth much, but the sentimental value is through the roof!
Author: Okay. Obviously, the last chapter was about a day in the life of Davis. If you don't like him, fine. This chapter is also mainly about Davis, but then near the end it kinda switches to Kari's POV. So just bear with me! Okay. Things will get weird, so I'll warn you ahead of time. Some characters are going to be exactly the same as others only slightly different. Exactly the same, slightly different… would that be an oxymoron? Oh, well. All digidestined characters names' will appear as they are in AMERICAN NOT JAPANESE! I REPEAT, IN AMERICAN NOT JAPANESE! Get it? Got it? Good. Forward and onward, then.

It had taken a bit of his time, sure, but it was worth it. Davis had spent the last four hours plotting and scheming. Well, at least attempting to. He wrote it out on paper and had a small pile formed around the garbage can in his room. Now all that was left was to act it out. But first, a practice run. Davis dug around under his bed and finally emerged with a plastic sheet from his childhood. It had little painted houses and was supposed to resemble a village. Sometimes he still played trucks with it.
"Okay," Davis spoke to himself. " This will be my apartment, this one is Kari's and this," he paused, " is that other guy… T.J."
Davis knew vary well his name was T.K., but he couldn't admit to himself consciously that he knew the boy's name and he didn't truly hate him. It wasn't his nature to prove himself wrong, but to prove himself right. And when he was at error, deny it.
Davis didn't collect dolls, and it's not like he could "borrow" any from Jun, either. This made things fun… how was he supposed to represent the tree of them? He knew just the thing. He'd find things laying around on the floor that were like them! Perfectly done, Davis. He patted himself on the back. For Kari, he found a pretty pink flower. Jun had been in his room again, no doubt. A plastic golden crown for himself, and he found the perfect thing for T.K. He had a piece of fake dog crap for T.K.
"There. Heh, heh, heh. Now to run this thing through."
Davis picked up the poop and placed it at "T.K.'s apartment." Then the to flower where Kari lived and made the crown "walk" to Kari's.
" Hello, Kari. I heard you were in a fight today. Is that true?"
"Yes. T.K. and I were in a terrible fight. We may never talk to each other again. I've always liked you better, Davis. I hate T.K. ever so much!"
" I came over to make you happy again. I always do the right thing in these situations. Not like that scum, J.R. or whatever his name is,"
" Oh, Davis,"
"Oh, Kari,"
Yup. Davis had it all worked out. It was 9:30 now. Too late to go to Kari's, but there was always tomorrow. Tomorrow, Davis would make history.

" I'm so glad I didn't see Davis after school today!" Kari waltzed into the family room where Tai sat channel surfing.
" Why's that?" he asked without turning around.
" Oh. T.K. and I had a fight today. He would have been all over me with stupid questions. You know what he's like," she replied.
" That's awful! What happened?" Tai turned around with a look of concern painted on his face.
" Nothing big. It's my fault, actually. I'm gonna apologize tomorrow, anyway," she seemed to be taking it well.
Tai wasn't so certain, though.
"Kari!" their mother called.
" Yeah Mom?" she ran toward her mother's voice.
" Kari, can you do me a favor?" her mother could give the most pleading eyes when she wanted to.
" Sure, Mama. What is it?"
" I need you to go to the store and but a quart of milk. I don't really trust Tai to go. He'd spend the money on something else. I know it's a little late, but I trust you'll be safe," she explained.
" Thanks Mom. I'll be back soon. But don't we still have half a gallon in the fridge?"
"Yes, but my recipe calls for more than that. Okay?"
" Okay. I'll be back!" Kari called as she closed the door of the apartment.

Kari whistled a little to herself as she walked the two blocks to the subway station. Funny as it was, the street seemed much friendlier during the day. It didn't seem as long a walk, either. The subway ride wouldn't be that long, either. Hopefully she could get back home before 10:00. I mean, it wouldn't take that long, would it? She'd just get on, go to the store and get the milk. She'd be back in no time, right? Public transportation could be creepy during the late hours. Kari felt surrounded. To her left was a couple of teenage boys with about six earrings per ear, nose rings, eyebrow piercings, the whole package deal. To her left was a man in a trench coat and across from her was a pudgy man with reading glasses and a newspaper. Well, he wasn't that creepy at least. Kari twiddled her thumbs a little in a futile attempt to make the time go faster. The subway came to a halt and announced her stop. She got off with the fat man behind her.
Phew! She thought. At least it's not one of the creepy guys.
" Where are you headed?" Kari asked him, attempting to make conversation and not be nervous.
" You'll see," He replied.
" What do you mean…? **I'll** see?" she stuttered.
"Come," the chunky man grabbed her wrist and folded his newspaper.
" Let go of me! What do you want?! If it's money, you can have it!"
" I don't want money. I've no need for money," he made no eye contact with her. " I have been sent for you, Kari."
" H-how did you know my name? … Who are you?!" she spat at him.
" You'll soon know,"
" That doesn't tell me! Who are you?"
He ignored her as he dragged the poor, scared girl up to a wall. Kari thought he would rape her or something, but no. The wall turned bright pink and protruded a bright light. This engulfed them and, in seconds, Kari and the man found themselves in a different world.
Kari looked over at him but she didn't see the same chubby man. He appeared that he lost about 200 pounds, shrank a few inches and his hair turned blonde.
" Wh-what happened…? Hey! What happened to you?!" Kari observed the changes and began to tremble.
The man looked up to reveal more changes. He now had soft blue eyes and a sparkling gentle smile.
" T-T.K?" Kari asked.
" Mm, yes and no," a female's voice replied.
" But you're a girl!"
" Yes, I am a female, but I am also T.K., in a sense. You may call me Takaishi Takeru," she said.
Kari searched for words, but only came up with, "How?"
" It seems I have much explaining to do…"
