The White Light - Chapter 2 (aka...Chapter 1...the first REAL chapter)

The phone rang at the Kamiya apartment, echoing through the rooms. Tai picked it up and answered,
" Hello?"

" Oh, hi, is this Tai?" asked the voice on the other end, whom Tai recognized as T.K.'s mother, he
noted her voice held a frantic tone.

" Yes, this is he. Is there something wrong Ms. Takaishi?" Tai replied, starting to worry himself.

" Yes, I'm afraid so. I know you're friends with Matt, and that Kari is friends with T.K., so I
decided to call you," Ms. Takaishi told him.

" What?! Did something happen?!?!" Tai asked, obviously worried. The aroused Kari's curiosity and
concern.

" Matt and T.K. were with their father, for his birthday...and they were in a car accident," Ms.
Takaishi answered, tears could be heard in her cracking voice.

" Are they alright?!" Tai asked, hoping the worst wouldn't be reality.

" Ummm...I'm not sure," Ms. Takaishi replied, " All I know is they've been rushed to Odaiba
General Hospital.... I was going to check on them when I decided to call you first...could you
do me a favor and call the rest of T.K. and Matt's friends?"

" Sure, no problem, Ms. Takaishi," Tai answered, " Alright then, bye."

" What?" Kari asked, her fear and curiosity showing in her voice.

" Matt and T.K. were in a car accident.... They're at Odaiba General...," Tai answered, dialing
Joe's phone number, " Could you tell Davis and the others with your D3?"

" Sure," Kari nodded, going to her room to get her D3.

The phone rang at Joe's house, until he picked it up, " Hello?"

" Hey, Joe?" Tai asked, hoping it was Joe who had answered.

" Yeah, Tai, what's wrong?" Joe asked, hearing the urgency in Tai's voice. His over worrying
mind running rampant with theories.

" Bad news, Matt and T.K. were in a car accident, they're at Odaiba General," Tai answered.

" Are they going to be okay?" Joe asked.

" I don't know yet, when T.K.'s mom called me she hadn't gone to the hospital yet...," Tai answered.

" I see," Joe commented, wondering if the two brothers would be all right.

" Listen, could you do me a favor and let Izzy and Mimi, while I call Sora?," Tai asked, " Kari's
notifying Davis, Yolei, Cody, and Ken."

" Sure thing, Tai," Joe assured, " I'll talk to you later."

" Okay, bye," Tai replied. Then he dialed Sora's number, " Hello, is Sora there. Yeah, I need
to talk to her, it's important."

Kari had finished contacting the other 02 digidestined. She was curled in a ball in the corner of
her room thinking. What was going to happen to T.K.? Would he be alright? She'd known him since
they were kids, when they'd met as digidestined. Since then they'd become good friends. The
thought that she could lose him scared her...actually the thought of losing any of her friends
scared her--even Davis.

Tai hung up the phone after talking to Sora. Matt was one of his best friends, he didn't want anything
to happen to him...after all, who would keep him in line...and who would he keep in line? They
kept each other balanced...sorta like, what was that called, yin and yang? Well, he knew it was
something like that. What would he do if Matt was gone?

About a half hour later the phone rang. " Hello?" Tai asked.

" Tai, it's Joe. Guess what?" Joe's voice rang from the other line.

" What?!" Tai asked, his anxiety showing thickly in his voice.

" My brother Jim volunteered to drive all of us to Odaiba General, we'll be there in a little bit
to pick you up, okay?" Joe answered, his voice holding a slight anxious tone.

" Okay, and Joe?" Tai replied.

" Yes, Tai?" Joe asked.

" Thank you, oh, and tell your brother thanks too," Tai answered.

" Sure thing, Tai," Joe said, grinning.

AN: *evil laugh* You still have to wait to find out more about T.K. and Matt...don't worry...I
think I'll devote the next chapter to them....
