Yolei walked them to the computer room. While they were walking, Ruki asked Kari in a soft whisper, "So, Kari, who do you have a crush on???? I know you like at least someone!"
Kari blushed. "Geez.......Do I HAVE to tell you, even if the boys are in back of us????"
"Just tell me in a very quiet whisper, or at least low enough so I can hear."
"Ok.......um........T.K. I like T.K. Hey! Why are you asking me????? Do you have a crush on someone, and you're asking me, just to make sure that I'm not stealing the guy you like????"
"Yeah, I guess you caught me on that."
"Well, you like T.K.???"
"Um........no......I like..........um.......Takato. I liked him since I first saw him at school when I came from the "all girls" school, and I haven't seen boys as cute as Takato."
"I understand. He IS a little cute, but I like T.K. better."
Yolei said, as she went in the computer lab, "This is where I got the email, Kari."
"I hate to burst in on your conversation," said Cody shyly. "But THAT wasn't there when we got the email."
Yolei looked at it. "Yeah, Cody. You're right."
Kari looked at it. "It's a digi-port, but it's closed."
While Kari was examining the digi-port, 8 lights burst out of the computer. "Huh????"
T.K. went to get his digivice out of the strap of his shorts. "Hey. This digivice must be a new kind. I think mine and Kari's have been upgraded. My digivice was smaller and bigger than this."
"Ruki looked at her digivice. Then she compared it to T.K.'s, then looked at Takato and Lee's Digivices. "T.K., Takato's, Lee's, and my digivices are different than yours." She looked at Kari's, Yolei's, and Davis'. "And they're also different than the others' digivices."
"I'll ask Izzy about why your digivice is different than mine."
Kari had a confused face. "How do you open this port????"
"I don't know, Kari," replied T.K. "I'll just ask Izzy about that, too."
"But what about Tai???"
"He can find his way out."
"Ok. Oh, wait! What time is it???
"3:00. Why???"
"Ruki and I signed up for the Talent show, and today is the first day for rehearsals. You can watch us, if you want."
"Alright."
Kari and Ruki ran to the auditorium so fast, the rest couldn't keep up.
When they finally reached the auditorium, the coordinater, Mr. Fujiyama, was taking roll call. "Ruki Makino, Kari Kamiya....."
"We're here!!!!!!" Yelled Ruki.
"Oh, just in time! It's time for you to perform!"
They ran up the stage, when Mr. Fujiyama looked at the list and said, "Oh, I forgot! You're not up yet. Juri performs before you."
"Oh?..........Yeah! I get to perform before you!!!!" Juri said to Ruki.
Ruki was mad. "Try taking Takato away from me. I betcha it won't work."
"Think again, Makino. The song I'm singing will make Takato mine."
"Try."
"Oh, I won't try. I will," she said proudly. as she walked to the stage.
Kari was a little confused at this. "You guys are fighting over Takato?????"
"Yeah," Ruki said in an annoyed voice. "Ever since Takato was hanging with me and not Juri when I first came to this school, she knew I was taking him away from her. I was, actually. Now she's trying to get him back from me."
The song started. Juri went along and sang the song:
"I try but I can't seem to get myself
To think of anything but you
Your breath on my face
Your warm gentle kiss, I taste the truth
I taste the truth."
By then, Takato was staring at her. He moved over to Lee, and asked him, "Doesn't she have the most beautiful voice you've ever heard??"
Lee didn't answer. Ruki was giggling at her voice, until Kari tapped her on the shoulder. "um...Ruki...........Look at Takato real quick???"
Ruki looked at him and sure enough, she almost dropped her microphone. Takato was blushing, and had those twinkling eyes that meant it was the most wonderful voice he has ever heard!!! Juri just kept her eyes shut and continued singing.
"We know what I came here for
So I won't ask for more
I wanna be with you
If only for a night
To be the one whose in your arms
Who holds you tight
I wanna be with you
There's nothing more to say
There's nothing else I want more than to feel this way
I wanna be with you
So I`ll hold you tonight
Like I would if you were mine
To hold forever more
And I`ll saver each touch that I wanted
So much to feel before (To feel before)
How beautiful it is
Just to be like this
I wanna be with you
If only for a night
To be the one whose in your arms
Who holds you tight
I wanna be with you
There's nothing more to say
There's nothing else I want more than to feel this way
I wanna be with you
Oh baby
I can`t fight this feeling anymore
It drives me crazy when I try to
So call my name
Take my hand
Make my wish
Baby, your command?
Yeah
I wanna be with you
There's nothing more to say
There's nothing else I want more than to feel this way
(I wanna be) I wanna be with you (I wanna be with you)
I wanna be with you
Wanna be with you (Yeah)
(I wanna be with you) I wanna be
I wanna be with you
(I wanna be)
(I wanna be)
(I wanna be with you) Yeah
(I wanna be with you)
I wanna be, I wanna be baby
I wanna be
(I wanna be with you)
I wanna be with you, yeah
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you."
"Wonderful, Juri!!!" Yelled Mr. Fujiyama with amazement.
"Yeah!" Takato yelled out. Then he sat back down to watch Ruki and Kari preform.
Mr. Fujiyama looked at his list. "You girls are up, now."
Ruki and Kari went to the stage. "I can't do this," Ruki whispered to Kari. Tears were already filling her eyes as the song started. That's it!!! Ruki thought to herself. Juri won..... While Kari was singing her lines, when Ruki dropped her mic, and ran out of the school. While she dropped the mic, she saw Takato talking to Juri and he actually kissed her. She couldn't stand it anymore. She ran to her hiding spot in the school campus, sat there, and cried. I never should've asked mom if I could go to a public school!!!!!! I can't believe she took him away from me...........
"Ruki!!!!!!!! RUKI!!!!!!!!" The digidestined yelled. Lee and Kari walked away from the group and ran to a hiding spot no one knew. They thought she was there.
"We knew you were going to hide here," Lee said. "Huh????........What's wrong????"
Ruki lifted her face. "Nothing for you to know."
Kari thought for a moment. In her thoughts, she said, I DID see Takato kiss Juri while I was singing. Maybe that's why she ran out of the stage......... "I know!!!! I know why!!!!!"
Ruki was still crying. "You can't tell Lee. I never should've went to this school for the fifth grade!!!!!!!!!" She pounded her fist on the ground, but she accidentally hit Lee's hand.
"Ow!!!!!!" Lee yelled in pain. "What secret?????"
"I'll have to tell him, Ruki," Kari said.
She had no choice. "Fine. Tell him."
