Chapter 3 "The rambling, gambling priest"
"Wow, so this is Larpa?" asked Gatomon. "Yep, now all we have to do is find this Tai" said TK. TK scratched his head. "What is it?" asked Gatomon. "Where are were going to find this Tai guy?" Gatomon slapped her head. "Where else would you find a priest?" growled Gatomon. "Oh yeah, at a church" said TK. "How dumb can you be?" grumbled Gatomon. "Sorry Gato, I'm just too worried about Kari to think" said TK looking at Kari. Kari was still a little shakey. "C'mon Kari, lets find this Tai priest and lift this curse." said TK holding onto her so that she wont stumble or trip. The three walked around for a while looking for a church. Finally after 15 minutes of looking, they found the church of Larpa. After entering they heard the beautiful music that was being played for the blessing of the Goddess Althena. TK sat Kari down on a seat so that she could rest. "Gato, watch Kari for me, I'm going to go find this Tai priest, Okay?" said TK. "What, why cant I go with you?" growled Gatomon. "Just do it!" shouted TK. Everybody in the church then shushed at them. "Oopps, sorry, (Wispering) gato, just do it, this one" wispered TK. "Oh okay" sighed Gatomon. TK then left to find Tai.
Kari opened her eyes to the sound of music. She then got up and looked at a group of kids, playing music to a statue of the Goddess. "Kari, sit back down!" shouted Gatomon. "Sorry" she then sat back down on her seat. "Gato, what his this magical sound that I'm hearing?" asked Kari. Gato perked her ears up. "what sound?" "The sound that those little humans are making" said Kari. Gatomon then looked at the kids who were playing the music. "Oh, you mean music" said Gatomon. "Music?" asked Kari. "You mean you never heard music before?" asked Gatomon. "No, on the blue star, I was alone with no one and there was not even a sound" said Kari. "This chick must either be really retarded or she really is from the blue star" thought Gatomon. Gatomon then said. "What your hearing now is music, church music" Kari smiled. "It's very pleasant" she said. Meanwhile, TK walked up to a priest. "Um, excuse me father" said TK. The priest turned around. "Yes, my child?" he said. "Could you tell me were to find the priest named Tai?" asked TK. "Tai?, THAT DRUNK!!"growled the priest. TK froze. "Drunk?" he thought. "That scandrool, you'll never find him in this holy place, not in a million years!!" shouted the priest. "Please, My friend is cursed with an evil spell and I need help" said TK. The priest looked at TK's face. "Take me to your cursed friend" said the priest.
TK took the priest to Kari. He watched her and checked how she felt. "Hmm, she really is in bad condition, I'm sorry but none of us have the power to break this spell" said the priest. TK slumped and looked at Kari. The priest then looked at his sadness. "Well my son, their is only one priest that probably has the power to break this spell, and that is Tai, but you'll never find him here" said the priest. TK looked at him. "Do you have any idea where he could be?" asked TK. The priest then pulled out a map of Larpa. "Here, follow this street, then make a left and you'll find it" said the priest. TK grabbed the map. "Thank you father" said TK picking up Kari so that she could walk. TK, Kari, and Gatomon then walked out of the church. A while later, TK, Kari and Gatomon followed the priest's directions and then found out that it led to a bar. "A bar? since when do you find a priest in a bar?" said Gatomon. "That's where he told us to go" said TK. The three then entered the bar. "Yuck, it smells like a barn in here" whined Gatomon. TK looked around and saw nothing but a few drunken men, two guys having a drinking contest, a few who had too much and passed out and a few women dancing to amuse some customers. TK, Kari and Gatomon sat up on some seats. "What can I get ya, cutie" asked the female bartender. "Uh, two milks please" said TK. "And how bout a few fish steaks" said Gatomon. "Milk? Fish Steaks? all we have is ale, whiskey, wine and beer" said the bartender. TK and Gatomon looked at each other. "Uh, what we really came here for is to find a priest named Tai" said TK. "Tai, you mean the studliest, hunk of man of Larpa?" said the bartender. TK and Gatomon looked confused. "He's over there gambling with a pair of new comers, Oh, and watch out, He's very good with the dice" said the Bartender pointing to a man with very big hair rolling a pair of dice. TK, Gatomon, and Kari looked at him. "That's Tai, he does'nt look like a priest to me, he looks like a deadbeat" said Gatomon. "We Gato, here we go" said TK walking torwards the big haired man.
The two men that were playing with Tai then walked passed TK grumbling that they lost all their money to that cheater. TK and Gatomon then sat next to him. "Uh, Tai I presume?" said TK. "Whats it to you!" growled Tai. "Uh nothing, I'ts just that I heard that you were a priest with very powerful healing magic" said TK. "Who told you that?" shouted Tai. "My grampa, his name is Gennai" said TK. "That old fart, ha I'havent seen him in a long time" said Tai drinking up the rest of his beer. "Well, mister Tai, can you help my frie.." "Hey, I dont work with the chosen anymore, Boy, and I never will again" interupted Tai. "How did you know that I knew that you were with the chosen?" asked TK. "That old coot, Gennai met my father at the village of Raculi, he knew that my father and I were involved with the chosen, he never could keep a secret" grumbled Tai. TK started to get a little angry. "Listen, I dont care if you were with the chosen, all I want is for you to help my friend" shouted TK. Tai laughed. "Ha, I like your attitude, Boy, I'll help your little friend, only if you beat me in a game of dice" said Tai. TK stared into Tai's bloodshot eyes. "You got yourself a deal" growled TK. Tai then pulled out a couple of dice. "Odds or evens" asked Tai. TK replied."Evens" Tai then threw the dice across the table. "Ha, Looks like I won, Boy, its odds!" laughed Tai. Gatomon then looked at the dice suspiciously. "Wanna try again, Boy?" asked Tai. "Yes!" shouted TK. "Evens". Tai threw the dice across the table. "Ha Ha, looks like I win again" laughed Tai. TK was about to burst. "How bout one more time" asked TK. Tai looked at him. "Evens" said TK. Tai then threw the dice across the table but then Gatomon found that Tai was secretly switching the real dice with loaded dice. Gatomon then bit Tai on the hand. "OW, YOU STUPID LITTLE RAT" shouted Tai dropping the real dice and the fake dice onto the table. "You Cheater!" growled TK. Tai stared at TK's angry eyes.
Suddenly they heard Kari moan. TK turned around to see Kari falling off her seat and into a faint. "NO, KARI"shouted TK running up to her. Tai watched as TK grabbed Kari into his arms trying to wake her. He then walked up to her and looked at her. "Is this your friend that needs my help?" asked Tai looking at the girl in TK's arms. He then grabbed her out of TK's arms and looked at her. "Hey, leave her alone you cheater!" shouted Gatomon. "Hmm, she's cursed with an evil spell, is'nt she?" asked Tai. TK nodded. "Well, Then come with me to my house" said Tai walking out of the bar with Kari in his arms. TK and Gatomon then walked off after him. Soon they were at Tai's house. "Welcome to Casa de Taichi" said Tai pointing to his house. "Why is joking at a time like this" said Gatomon. They then entered the house. Tai then layed Kari on his bed to rest. TK and Gatomon then looked at her. "Can you help her?" asked TK. Tai looked at Kari again. "Hmm, I think so, but please answer me this, why are you helping her" asked Tai. "I'm helping her because she needs my help" said TK. Tai looked at Kari again. "She's not human, is'nt she" asked Tai. "How did you know?" asked TK. Suddenly they heard Tai's door slam open. "Taichi!" shouted a familiar voice. "Ah, another visitor to casa de taichi" said Tai walking out of the bedroom. TK then remembered the voice of the person. "Oh No, Lord Matt!" thought TK. He and Gatomon then peeked into the other room. "Yamato, its been a long time" said Tai. "Yes, it has, am I bothering you, do you have guests?" asked Lord Matt. "No, Why do you ask?" asked Tai. "Nevermind, I'm looking for a monster" said Lord Matt. " A monster?" asked Tai. "Yes, her name is Kari the destroyer, she was traveling with a boy named TK, Have you seen them" asked Lord Matt. "A girl?" asked Tai. "Yes, she looks like a girl and she is traveling with a blond boy with green tattoos on his cheek and a little flying pink cat" said Lord Matt. Tai looked surprised. "A girl, a blond boy, and a pink flying cat?" said Tai. "Yes, have you seen them?" asked Lord Matt with an evil look in his eye. "Please dont turn on us Tai" thought TK in the other room. Tai looked at Matt again. "Sorry, I havent seen them" lied Tai. "Oh, well then, can I ask you another thing?" asked Matt. "Sure" " Will you please come back to Raculi, dont you know that my sister Sora(I know that Sora and Matt are not related but Mauri and Leo are related and they are playing their roles, Okay) misses you dearly" said Matt. Tai then frowned a big frown. "Please dont say that name, Yamato, It still hurts me when I hear that name" wimpered Tai. Matt Patted Tai on the back. "Sorry, but she still really misses you" said Matt. "I know and I miss her, but I cant go back, not with that thing inside her" said Tai. The two then frowned. "Well, I'll be heading off to the town of dalton now, and please contact me if you encounter the destroyer with the boy and the flying pink cat, Okay" asked Matt. "Off course" said Tai. Matt then left the house.
Tai then took a deep breath. TK and Gatomon then entered the room. "Thank you so very much" said TK. Tai gave him a very angry stare. "A boy with blond hair and green tattoos on his face and a flying pink cat" growled Tai. "Hey, I am not a cat, I'm a baby red dragon" growled Gatomon. "Whatever red, so you must be TK" said Tai. "Uh, yeah, and this is my friend Gato, and the other girl is.." "Kari the destroyer" interupted Tai. "No, she is not a destroyer, she needs to meet with the Goddess Althena" shouted TK. "TK, I lied to my best friend right now just to save that girl, Matt is just like a brother to me, and I lied to him, for you" said Tai with an angry stare. TK stepped back. "If he finds out that I lied, I'm sure that he will never trust me again" said Tai. Tai then heard Kari moan in the room. "Well boy, lets break this curse" said Tai stretching his broad hands. "Thank you so very much, Tai" said TK. "I'm going to need a statue of the Goddess Althena to break this curse, so were going to need to get to the church" said Tai. "But how, I'm sure that the town is crawling with Lord Matt's gabu-guards." asked TK. "We'll go through via Taichi's way" said Tai pushing his dresser drore out of the way to reveil a secret door. "Go get Kari and we'll leave to the church" said Tai. "Got it" said TK. He then went back to the bedroom and picked up Kari. The four then entered the door. Soon they entered a secret cave. "What's a cave doing behind your house, Tai" asked TK. "I dont know, but it makes a good place to hide from the coppers or angry gamblers" said Tai. "Except for some minor problems" "What problems?" asked Gatomon. "The cave can be crawling with monsters" said Tai pointing to a giant bug-like monster.
"Dont worry, I'll take care of this" shouted TK. "FEROCIOUS WIND!" He then shot his squall attack at the monster. The monster took a little bit of damage but then it attacked. "Oh No, watch out TK!" shouted Gatomon. Suddenly Tai threw his lucky dice at the monster. "LADY LUCK, BE KIND!" shouted Tai. His dice then turned into fireballs and killed the bug-monster. TK and Gatomon then looked at Tai who then picked up his dice were the monster laid dead. "Nothing like a good anger dice attack to get things going" said Tai. "Wow, that was so cool" said Gatomon. "I'm glad you liked it red" said Tai. The three then went deeper into the cave. After a couple of fights with some monsters, they made to the back of the church. Tai, TK, Kari, and Gatomon then entered through the backdoor of the church. Tai then heard talking in another room. "Lord Matt, what brings you to our church" asked a priest. "I'm looking for a destroyer named Kari, she takes the form a young girl and she is traveling with a boy named TK" said the other familiar voice. "Dammit, Matt's here, we better hurry up and get outta here" said Tai. "If Lord Matt catches us, were all dead, especially Kari" said TK. They then walked quickly to the statue of Althena. Tai and TK then healed themselves with a blessing of the Goddess statue. "Okay, now its Kari's turn" said Tai. They placed Kari in front of the statue of the Goddess. "Almighty Goddess of Lunar, please lend me some of your power to cure this girl from her evil curse that is layed upon her" shouted Tai. Tai's hands then started to glow. He then shot a beam of golden light at Kari. Kari then started to moan like she was in pain. "What, I did'nt break it!" said Tai. "This only happend once, and I vowed that I'll never make that mistake again" thought Tai.
Tai then thought about when he was back in Raculi with his best friend and his love, Matt and Sora. *Flashback* Tai and Matt were sitting near a bed with a young girl screaming in pain. "Taichi, Yamato, Im in pain!!" cryed the girl. "Hold on Sora, I'll protect you, I'll break this curse!" shouted Tai holding his love's hand. "Fight Sora, FIGHT, I wont let you leave us, please dear sister, fight it!" shouted Matt. "Please heeelllpp mee, AHHHHHH" screamed Sora. "SOORRAAAAA!!!!!!!!" shouted Tai. *End of flashback* "I've played that scene over and over in my mind, I vowed that I'll never give up on breaking a curse, ever again" said Tai. "Wow, I never knew you had so much pain in your heart, was Sora, your girl?" asked TK. "Please dont say that name, C'mon, I'm going to try again to break this damn curse" said Tai looking at Kari again. TK and Gatomon stepped back. "Please Goddess, give me the power to break this curse on this poor angel, Please" shouted Tai staring into the eyes of the Goddess's statue. Tai's hands then glowed again. He then shot a blast of golden holy light at Kari. Kari glowed a bright blue color. Finally she fell onto the ground. Tai then got his breath. "Th..There, I did it" gasped Tai wiping the sweat off his forhead. TK picked up Kari and looked at her. "Why is she still unconscious?" asked TK. Tai looked at her. "She's not unconscious, she just sleeping, she must be exhausted, C'mon lets go to my house, You guys can crash there for the night" said Tai. TK then picked up Kari into his arms. "Thank you so very much" said TK. "Dont mention it" said Tai smiling at him and Gatomon. They then left and went back to Tai's house. At Tai's house they put Kari on the bed and let her sleep. Tai and Matt then sat down on the floor. "So were are you heading to know?" asked Tai. "Uh, well, Kari said that she has to meet with the Goddess Althena, so I guess were heading to" "Pentagulia" interupted Tai. "Huh, Pentagulia?" asked TK. "Yes, thats the holy city were the chosen meet with the Goddess" said Tai. "Oh, well, I guess thats were we'll be heading" said TK. "*yawn*, well, TK, you could probably get a boat to Pentagulia at Dalton, but well, *Yawn* nevermind, lets just get some sleep" said Tai sleepily. "Okay, Good night Tai, Good night Gato" said TK lying down to go to sleep. "Good night you guy" purred Gatomon as she cuddled into a ball and fell asleep. They all then fell asleep.
In the morning, TK woke up first. "*yawn* wow, what a day" thought TK. TK then walked up to Tai's bed to check on Kari. "WHAT, KARI'S GONE!!" shouted TK. Gatomon then woke up. "Huh? What?" grumbled Gatomon. She then flew to TK. "Kari's gone, where could she be?" said TK. "What if Lord Matt came in during the night and took her away" said Gatomon. TK gasped. "Dont think like that, she's gotta be here somewhere" said TK. He looked at Tai sleeping on the ground. "He must be still exhausted after all that healing last night" said Gatomon. "Your right, I'll write a note to him. He then wrote a note that said. "I've gone to find Kari, she diseappeared this morning and I'm going to find her, Thank you very much for all you've done. I hope that I could repay you somehow. Well I gotta go. Bye. your friend TK" He then left the note on Kari's bed. He and Gatomon then left to find Kari. The two went around asking other people if they saw Kari. "Yes, you mean the girl with the big red robe?" said an old womem. "Yes, have you seen her?" asked TK. "Yeah, almost everybody saw her this morning, the last place I heard she went was to the little house over there" said the old women pointing to a little house on a hill. "Thank you very much" said TK running to the house. At the house, A young women and her baby answered the door. "Yes, may I help you?" asked the lady. "Yes, have you saw a girl in a big red robe?" asked TK. "Oh, the young lady that visited me this morning, yes, please come in" said the lady. TK and Gatomon entered the house. The lady then placed her baby into a crib. "The young girl that came here, I asked her if she could watch my baby while I went to go get groceries, she watched him for a while, when I came back, I heard my baby crying, she was very confused" said the lady. *Flashback* "Why is your little one crying?" asked Kari. "Dont worry he's just crying because he's lonely" said the lady. Kari was confused. "lonely?" she asked. They lady then picked up her baby and started to sing a soft lullaby. Soon the baby stopped crying and then fell asleep. Kari was amazed. "What kind of magic did you use, A sleeping spell?" asked Kari. "I did'nt use any magic, I sang a lullaby" said the lady. "A lullaby?" asked Kari. "Yes my dear, you never heard a lullaby before?" asked the lady. Kari nodded. "Hmm, My mother always sang me lullabies when I was a child, your mother never sang to you?" asked the lady. Kari nodded again. "Hmm, how preculier" said the lady. *End of flashback* "She then asked me if I knew were to find the Goddess Althena, I said to go visit the mayor and he'll probably know were to find her" said the lady. "The mayor, can you please tell were to find him?" asked TK. "Yes just go up the street and you'll see a big house, that will be the mayors house" said the lady. "Thank you very much, goodbye" said TK. TK and Gatomon then left to the mayor's house. "Such a nice boy" thought the lady as she watched him and Gatomon exit the house.
Meanwhile, at Tai's house. Tai woke up. "Huh where is everybody" he said to himself. He then looked at his bed and found TK's note. After reading it. "If Matt finds them, then they'll all be in big trouble, They'll need my help to reach Pentagulia" thougth Tai as he ran out of his house. TK and Gatomon finally found the dock of Larpa. "This is were the mayor said that he told Kari to go to" said TK. The two then looked around. "Look TK, there she is!" shouted Gatomon pointing to Kari looking out into the desert. (this is a desert dock, people set said on dirt ships) "Kari, there you are!" shouted TK. Kari turned around to see TK and Gatomon running up to her. "TK, Gato" she said. "Why did you leave Kari?" asked TK. "I told you, I have to find Althena, the mayor of Larpa said that I'll be able to meet with her in the city of Pentagulia" said Kari. "I know, Tai told me that we could reach Pentagulia with a ship in Dalton" said TK. "We, This is my mission, TK, I dont want you to get involved with this" said Kari. TK looked confused. "Humans dont understand what's going to happen, If Myotismon is revived, then your world will suffer and be destroyed" said Kari. "Kari, I.." "Please TK, I have to do this, Goodbye, please say goodbye to Tai and Gennai for me" said Kari as she started to walk throught the desert. "Kari...no" said TK. Kari started walking farther, suddenly, she stopped. She then turned around and looked at TK. The two stared at each other for a while. "Why does it hurt me, when I leave without him, he did save my life, why does one part of me want to stay with him and one part wants me to finish my mission, I'm so confused" thought Kari. She then looked at TK again. "I'll never forget you TK, Thank you for everything" shouted Kari. She then diseappeared into the desert to Dalton. TK felt a tear fall from his face. "Goodbye Kari" he thought. Gatomon then looked at TK. "I cant believe that Kari just walked out of my life like that" said TK. "Dont worry TK, she'll be alright, C'mon, lets get back to grampa Gennai and tell him about everything" said Gatomon. TK looked into the desert again. "Alright, lets go home". The two then started to walk back.
Suddenly, they heard someone shout to them. "TK, RED, OVER HERE" shouted the voice. The two then turned to see Tai running torward them. "You were'nt going to leave without saying goodbye, hey, where's your girlfriend, Kari?" asked Tai. "Kari is not TK's girlfriend, she's just a girl and just a friend" growled Gatomon. "Sure, whatever you say red" said Tai. "She's gone Tai, she's left without us" said TK. "Huh, and you let her leave!?" shouted Tai. TK nodded. "Did she say were she was heading?" asked Tai. "She said that she was going to get a boat at Dalton so she could meet with Althena at Pentagulia" said Tai. Tai slapped his head. "YOU RETARD, DONT YOU KNOW THAT THE GARURU-SHIP DESTINY IS DOCKED AT DALTON!" shouted Tai. "WHAT!" shouted TK. "Matt is heading there right now and if he finds her, he'll kill her" shouted Tai. "No, Kari I'm coming to save you" shouted TK. "Not without me" said Gatomon sitting on TK's shoulder. "Hey, dont forget me" said Tai. TK and Gatomon looked at him. "Your coming with us?" asked TK. "Ofcourse, I'm not letting you get killed by Matt, Besides, I'm here to guide to the holy city of Pentagulia" said Tai. TK looked at Gatomon. "Well, It looks like we have a new traveling partner" said TK. They then looked out at the desert. "Kari, were coming to save you" said TK. They then entered the desert.

Chapter 3 "The rambling, gambling priest"
"Wow, so this is Larpa?" asked Gatomon. "Yep, now all we have to do is find this Tai" said TK. TK scratched his head. "What is it?" asked Gatomon. "Where are were going to find this Tai guy?" Gatomon slapped her head. "Where else would you find a priest?" growled Gatomon. "Oh yeah, at a church" said TK. "How dumb can you be?" grumbled Gatomon. "Sorry Gato, I'm just too worried about Kari to think" said TK looking at Kari. Kari was still a little shakey. "C'mon Kari, lets find this Tai priest and lift this curse." said TK holding onto her so that she wont stumble or trip. The three walked around for a while looking for a church. Finally after 15 minutes of looking, they found the church of Larpa. After entering they heard the beautiful music that was being played for the blessing of the Goddess Althena. TK sat Kari down on a seat so that she could rest. "Gato, watch Kari for me, I'm going to go find this Tai priest, Okay?" said TK. "What, why cant I go with you?" growled Gatomon. "Just do it!" shouted TK. Everybody in the church then shushed at them. "Oopps, sorry, (Wispering) gato, just do it, this one" wispered TK. "Oh okay" sighed Gatomon. TK then left to find Tai.
Kari opened her eyes to the sound of music. She then got up and looked at a group of kids, playing music to a statue of the Goddess. "Kari, sit back down!" shouted Gatomon. "Sorry" she then sat back down on her seat. "Gato, what his this magical sound that I'm hearing?" asked Kari. Gato perked her ears up. "what sound?" "The sound that those little humans are making" said Kari. Gatomon then looked at the kids who were playing the music. "Oh, you mean music" said Gatomon. "Music?" asked Kari. "You mean you never heard music before?" asked Gatomon. "No, on the blue star, I was alone with no one and there was not even a sound" said Kari. "This chick must either be really retarded or she really is from the blue star" thought Gatomon. Gatomon then said. "What your hearing now is music, church music" Kari smiled. "It's very pleasant" she said. Meanwhile, TK walked up to a priest. "Um, excuse me father" said TK. The priest turned around. "Yes, my child?" he said. "Could you tell me were to find the priest named Tai?" asked TK. "Tai?, THAT DRUNK!!"growled the priest. TK froze. "Drunk?" he thought. "That scandrool, you'll never find him in this holy place, not in a million years!!" shouted the priest. "Please, My friend is cursed with an evil spell and I need help" said TK. The priest looked at TK's face. "Take me to your cursed friend" said the priest.
TK took the priest to Kari. He watched her and checked how she felt. "Hmm, she really is in bad condition, I'm sorry but none of us have the power to break this spell" said the priest. TK slumped and looked at Kari. The priest then looked at his sadness. "Well my son, their is only one priest that probably has the power to break this spell, and that is Tai, but you'll never find him here" said the priest. TK looked at him. "Do you have any idea where he could be?" asked TK. The priest then pulled out a map of Larpa. "Here, follow this street, then make a left and you'll find it" said the priest. TK grabbed the map. "Thank you father" said TK picking up Kari so that she could walk. TK, Kari, and Gatomon then walked out of the church. A while later, TK, Kari and Gatomon followed the priest's directions and then found out that it led to a bar. "A bar? since when do you find a priest in a bar?" said Gatomon. "That's where he told us to go" said TK. The three then entered the bar. "Yuck, it smells like a barn in here" whined Gatomon. TK looked around and saw nothing but a few drunken men, two guys having a drinking contest, a few who had too much and passed out and a few women dancing to amuse some customers. TK, Kari and Gatomon sat up on some seats. "What can I get ya, cutie" asked the female bartender. "Uh, two milks please" said TK. "And how bout a few fish steaks" said Gatomon. "Milk? Fish Steaks? all we have is ale, whiskey, wine and beer" said the bartender. TK and Gatomon looked at each other. "Uh, what we really came here for is to find a priest named Tai" said TK. "Tai, you mean the studliest, hunk of man of Larpa?" said the bartender. TK and Gatomon looked confused. "He's over there gambling with a pair of new comers, Oh, and watch out, He's very good with the dice" said the Bartender pointing to a man with very big hair rolling a pair of dice. TK, Gatomon, and Kari looked at him. "That's Tai, he does'nt look like a priest to me, he looks like a deadbeat" said Gatomon. "We Gato, here we go" said TK walking torwards the big haired man.
The two men that were playing with Tai then walked passed TK grumbling that they lost all their money to that cheater. TK and Gatomon then sat next to him. "Uh, Tai I presume?" said TK. "Whats it to you!" growled Tai. "Uh nothing, I'ts just that I heard that you were a priest with very powerful healing magic" said TK. "Who told you that?" shouted Tai. "My grampa, his name is Gennai" said TK. "That old fart, ha I'havent seen him in a long time" said Tai drinking up the rest of his beer. "Well, mister Tai, can you help my frie.." "Hey, I dont work with the chosen anymore, Boy, and I never will again" interupted Tai. "How did you know that I knew that you were with the chosen?" asked TK. "That old coot, Gennai met my father at the village of Raculi, he knew that my father and I were involved with the chosen, he never could keep a secret" grumbled Tai. TK started to get a little angry. "Listen, I dont care if you were with the chosen, all I want is for you to help my friend" shouted TK. Tai laughed. "Ha, I like your attitude, Boy, I'll help your little friend, only if you beat me in a game of dice" said Tai. TK stared into Tai's bloodshot eyes. "You got yourself a deal" growled TK. Tai then pulled out a couple of dice. "Odds or evens" asked Tai. TK replied."Evens" Tai then threw the dice across the table. "Ha, Looks like I won, Boy, its odds!" laughed Tai. Gatomon then looked at the dice suspiciously. "Wanna try again, Boy?" asked Tai. "Yes!" shouted TK. "Evens". Tai threw the dice across the table. "Ha Ha, looks like I win again" laughed Tai. TK was about to burst. "How bout one more time" asked TK. Tai looked at him. "Evens" said TK. Tai then threw the dice across the table but then Gatomon found that Tai was secretly switching the real dice with loaded dice. Gatomon then bit Tai on the hand. "OW, YOU STUPID LITTLE RAT" shouted Tai dropping the real dice and the fake dice onto the table. "You Cheater!" growled TK. Tai stared at TK's angry eyes.
Suddenly they heard Kari moan. TK turned around to see Kari falling off her seat and into a faint. "NO, KARI"shouted TK running up to her. Tai watched as TK grabbed Kari into his arms trying to wake her. He then walked up to her and looked at her. "Is this your friend that needs my help?" asked Tai looking at the girl in TK's arms. He then grabbed her out of TK's arms and looked at her. "Hey, leave her alone you cheater!" shouted Gatomon. "Hmm, she's cursed with an evil spell, is'nt she?" asked Tai. TK nodded. "Well, Then come with me to my house" said Tai walking out of the bar with Kari in his arms. TK and Gatomon then walked off after him. Soon they were at Tai's house. "Welcome to Casa de Taichi" said Tai pointing to his house. "Why is joking at a time like this" said Gatomon. They then entered the house. Tai then layed Kari on his bed to rest. TK and Gatomon then looked at her. "Can you help her?" asked TK. Tai looked at Kari again. "Hmm, I think so, but please answer me this, why are you helping her" asked Tai. "I'm helping her because she needs my help" said TK. Tai looked at Kari again. "She's not human, is'nt she" asked Tai. "How did you know?" asked TK. Suddenly they heard Tai's door slam open. "Taichi!" shouted a familiar voice. "Ah, another visitor to casa de taichi" said Tai walking out of the bedroom. TK then remembered the voice of the person. "Oh No, Lord Matt!" thought TK. He and Gatomon then peeked into the other room. "Yamato, its been a long time" said Tai. "Yes, it has, am I bothering you, do you have guests?" asked Lord Matt. "No, Why do you ask?" asked Tai. "Nevermind, I'm looking for a monster" said Lord Matt. " A monster?" asked Tai. "Yes, her name is Kari the destroyer, she was traveling with a boy named TK, Have you seen them" asked Lord Matt. "A girl?" asked Tai. "Yes, she looks like a girl and she is traveling with a blond boy with green tattoos on his cheek and a little flying pink cat" said Lord Matt. Tai looked surprised. "A girl, a blond boy, and a pink flying cat?" said Tai. "Yes, have you seen them?" asked Lord Matt with an evil look in his eye. "Please dont turn on us Tai" thought TK in the other room. Tai looked at Matt again. "Sorry, I havent seen them" lied Tai. "Oh, well then, can I ask you another thing?" asked Matt. "Sure" " Will you please come back to Raculi, dont you know that my sister Sora(I know that Sora and Matt are not related but Mauri and Leo are related and they are playing their roles, Okay) misses you dearly" said Matt. Tai then frowned a big frown. "Please dont say that name, Yamato, It still hurts me when I hear that name" wimpered Tai. Matt Patted Tai on the back. "Sorry, but she still really misses you" said Matt. "I know and I miss her, but I cant go back, not with that thing inside her" said Tai. The two then frowned. "Well, I'll be heading off to the town of dalton now, and please contact me if you encounter the destroyer with the boy and the flying pink cat, Okay" asked Matt. "Off course" said Tai. Matt then left the house.
Tai then took a deep breath. TK and Gatomon then entered the room. "Thank you so very much" said TK. Tai gave him a very angry stare. "A boy with blond hair and green tattoos on his face and a flying pink cat" growled Tai. "Hey, I am not a cat, I'm a baby red dragon" growled Gatomon. "Whatever red, so you must be TK" said Tai. "Uh, yeah, and this is my friend Gato, and the other girl is.." "Kari the destroyer" interupted Tai. "No, she is not a destroyer, she needs to meet with the Goddess Althena" shouted TK. "TK, I lied to my best friend right now just to save that girl, Matt is just like a brother to me, and I lied to him, for you" said Tai with an angry stare. TK stepped back. "If he finds out that I lied, I'm sure that he will never trust me again" said Tai. Tai then heard Kari moan in the room. "Well boy, lets break this curse" said Tai stretching his broad hands. "Thank you so very much, Tai" said TK. "I'm going to need a statue of the Goddess Althena to break this curse, so were going to need to get to the church" said Tai. "But how, I'm sure that the town is crawling with Lord Matt's gabu-guards." asked TK. "We'll go through via Taichi's way" said Tai pushing his dresser drore out of the way to reveil a secret door. "Go get Kari and we'll leave to the church" said Tai. "Got it" said TK. He then went back to the bedroom and picked up Kari. The four then entered the door. Soon they entered a secret cave. "What's a cave doing behind your house, Tai" asked TK. "I dont know, but it makes a good place to hide from the coppers or angry gamblers" said Tai. "Except for some minor problems" "What problems?" asked Gatomon. "The cave can be crawling with monsters" said Tai pointing to a giant bug-like monster.
"Dont worry, I'll take care of this" shouted TK. "FEROCIOUS WIND!" He then shot his squall attack at the monster. The monster took a little bit of damage but then it attacked. "Oh No, watch out TK!" shouted Gatomon. Suddenly Tai threw his lucky dice at the monster. "LADY LUCK, BE KIND!" shouted Tai. His dice then turned into fireballs and killed the bug-monster. TK and Gatomon then looked at Tai who then picked up his dice were the monster laid dead. "Nothing like a good anger dice attack to get things going" said Tai. "Wow, that was so cool" said Gatomon. "I'm glad you liked it red" said Tai. The three then went deeper into the cave. After a couple of fights with some monsters, they made to the back of the church. Tai, TK, Kari, and Gatomon then entered through the backdoor of the church. Tai then heard talking in another room. "Lord Matt, what brings you to our church" asked a priest. "I'm looking for a destroyer named Kari, she takes the form a young girl and she is traveling with a boy named TK" said the other familiar voice. "Dammit, Matt's here, we better hurry up and get outta here" said Tai. "If Lord Matt catches us, were all dead, especially Kari" said TK. They then walked quickly to the statue of Althena. Tai and TK then healed themselves with a blessing of the Goddess statue. "Okay, now its Kari's turn" said Tai. They placed Kari in front of the statue of the Goddess. "Almighty Goddess of Lunar, please lend me some of your power to cure this girl from her evil curse that is layed upon her" shouted Tai. Tai's hands then started to glow. He then shot a beam of golden light at Kari. Kari then started to moan like she was in pain. "What, I did'nt break it!" said Tai. "This only happend once, and I vowed that I'll never make that mistake again" thought Tai.
Tai then thought about when he was back in Raculi with his best friend and his love, Matt and Sora. *Flashback* Tai and Matt were sitting near a bed with a young girl screaming in pain. "Taichi, Yamato, Im in pain!!" cryed the girl. "Hold on Sora, I'll protect you, I'll break this curse!" shouted Tai holding his love's hand. "Fight Sora, FIGHT, I wont let you leave us, please dear sister, fight it!" shouted Matt. "Please heeelllpp mee, AHHHHHH" screamed Sora. "SOORRAAAAA!!!!!!!!" shouted Tai. *End of flashback* "I've played that scene over and over in my mind, I vowed that I'll never give up on breaking a curse, ever again" said Tai. "Wow, I never knew you had so much pain in your heart, was Sora, your girl?" asked TK. "Please dont say that name, C'mon, I'm going to try again to break this damn curse" said Tai looking at Kari again. TK and Gatomon stepped back. "Please Goddess, give me the power to break this curse on this poor angel, Please" shouted Tai staring into the eyes of the Goddess's statue. Tai's hands then glowed again. He then shot a blast of golden holy light at Kari. Kari glowed a bright blue color. Finally she fell onto the ground. Tai then got his breath. "Th..There, I did it" gasped Tai wiping the sweat off his forhead. TK picked up Kari and looked at her. "Why is she still unconscious?" asked TK. Tai looked at her. "She's not unconscious, she just sleeping, she must be exhausted, C'mon lets go to my house, You guys can crash there for the night" said Tai. TK then picked up Kari into his arms. "Thank you so very much" said TK. "Dont mention it" said Tai smiling at him and Gatomon. They then left and went back to Tai's house. At Tai's house they put Kari on the bed and let her sleep. Tai and Matt then sat down on the floor. "So were are you heading to know?" asked Tai. "Uh, well, Kari said that she has to meet with the Goddess Althena, so I guess were heading to" "Pentagulia" interupted Tai. "Huh, Pentagulia?" asked TK. "Yes, thats the holy city were the chosen meet with the Goddess" said Tai. "Oh, well, I guess thats were we'll be heading" said TK. "*yawn*, well, TK, you could probably get a boat to Pentagulia at Dalton, but well, *Yawn* nevermind, lets just get some sleep" said Tai sleepily. "Okay, Good night Tai, Good night Gato" said TK lying down to go to sleep. "Good night you guy" purred Gatomon as she cuddled into a ball and fell asleep. They all then fell asleep.
In the morning, TK woke up first. "*yawn* wow, what a day" thought TK. TK then walked up to Tai's bed to check on Kari. "WHAT, KARI'S GONE!!" shouted TK. Gatomon then woke up. "Huh? What?" grumbled Gatomon. She then flew to TK. "Kari's gone, where could she be?" said TK. "What if Lord Matt came in during the night and took her away" said Gatomon. TK gasped. "Dont think like that, she's gotta be here somewhere" said TK. He looked at Tai sleeping on the ground. "He must be still exhausted after all that healing last night" said Gatomon. "Your right, I'll write a note to him. He then wrote a note that said. "I've gone to find Kari, she diseappeared this morning and I'm going to find her, Thank you very much for all you've done. I hope that I could repay you somehow. Well I gotta go. Bye. your friend TK" He then left the note on Kari's bed. He and Gatomon then left to find Kari. The two went around asking other people if they saw Kari. "Yes, you mean the girl with the big red robe?" said an old womem. "Yes, have you seen her?" asked TK. "Yeah, almost everybody saw her this morning, the last place I heard she went was to the little house over there" said the old women pointing to a little house on a hill. "Thank you very much" said TK running to the house. At the house, A young women and her baby answered the door. "Yes, may I help you?" asked the lady. "Yes, have you saw a girl in a big red robe?" asked TK. "Oh, the young lady that visited me this morning, yes, please come in" said the lady. TK and Gatomon entered the house. The lady then placed her baby into a crib. "The young girl that came here, I asked her if she could watch my baby while I went to go get groceries, she watched him for a while, when I came back, I heard my baby crying, she was very confused" said the lady. *Flashback* "Why is your little one crying?" asked Kari. "Dont worry he's just crying because he's lonely" said the lady. Kari was confused. "lonely?" she asked. They lady then picked up her baby and started to sing a soft lullaby. Soon the baby stopped crying and then fell asleep. Kari was amazed. "What kind of magic did you use, A sleeping spell?" asked Kari. "I did'nt use any magic, I sang a lullaby" said the lady. "A lullaby?" asked Kari. "Yes my dear, you never heard a lullaby before?" asked the lady. Kari nodded. "Hmm, My mother always sang me lullabies when I was a child, your mother never sang to you?" asked the lady. Kari nodded again. "Hmm, how preculier" said the lady. *End of flashback* "She then asked me if I knew were to find the Goddess Althena, I said to go visit the mayor and he'll probably know were to find her" said the lady. "The mayor, can you please tell were to find him?" asked TK. "Yes just go up the street and you'll see a big house, that will be the mayors house" said the lady. "Thank you very much, goodbye" said TK. TK and Gatomon then left to the mayor's house. "Such a nice boy" thought the lady as she watched him and Gatomon exit the house.
Meanwhile, at Tai's house. Tai woke up. "Huh where is everybody" he said to himself. He then looked at his bed and found TK's note. After reading it. "If Matt finds them, then they'll all be in big trouble, They'll need my help to reach Pentagulia" thougth Tai as he ran out of his house. TK and Gatomon finally found the dock of Larpa. "This is were the mayor said that he told Kari to go to" said TK. The two then looked around. "Look TK, there she is!" shouted Gatomon pointing to Kari looking out into the desert. (this is a desert dock, people set said on dirt ships) "Kari, there you are!" shouted TK. Kari turned around to see TK and Gatomon running up to her. "TK, Gato" she said. "Why did you leave Kari?" asked TK. "I told you, I have to find Althena, the mayor of Larpa said that I'll be able to meet with her in the city of Pentagulia" said Kari. "I know, Tai told me that we could reach Pentagulia with a ship in Dalton" said TK. "We, This is my mission, TK, I dont want you to get involved with this" said Kari. TK looked confused. "Humans dont understand what's going to happen, If Myotismon is revived, then your world will suffer and be destroyed" said Kari. "Kari, I.." "Please TK, I have to do this, Goodbye, please say goodbye to Tai and Gennai for me" said Kari as she started to walk throught the desert. "Kari...no" said TK. Kari started walking farther, suddenly, she stopped. She then turned around and looked at TK. The two stared at each other for a while. "Why does it hurt me, when I leave without him, he did save my life, why does one part of me want to stay with him and one part wants me to finish my mission, I'm so confused" thought Kari. She then looked at TK again. "I'll never forget you TK, Thank you for everything" shouted Kari. She then diseappeared into the desert to Dalton. TK felt a tear fall from his face. "Goodbye Kari" he thought. Gatomon then looked at TK. "I cant believe that Kari just walked out of my life like that" said TK. "Dont worry TK, she'll be alright, C'mon, lets get back to grampa Gennai and tell him about everything" said Gatomon. TK looked into the desert again. "Alright, lets go home". The two then started to walk back.
Suddenly, they heard someone shout to them. "TK, RED, OVER HERE" shouted the voice. The two then turned to see Tai running torward them. "You were'nt going to leave without saying goodbye, hey, where's your girlfriend, Kari?" asked Tai. "Kari is not TK's girlfriend, she's just a girl and just a friend" growled Gatomon. "Sure, whatever you say red" said Tai. "She's gone Tai, she's left without us" said TK. "Huh, and you let her leave!?" shouted Tai. TK nodded. "Did she say were she was heading?" asked Tai. "She said that she was going to get a boat at Dalton so she could meet with Althena at Pentagulia" said Tai. Tai slapped his head. "YOU RETARD, DONT YOU KNOW THAT THE GARURU-SHIP DESTINY IS DOCKED AT DALTON!" shouted Tai. "WHAT!" shouted TK. "Matt is heading there right now and if he finds her, he'll kill her" shouted Tai. "No, Kari I'm coming to save you" shouted TK. "Not without me" said Gatomon sitting on TK's shoulder. "Hey, dont forget me" said Tai. TK and Gatomon looked at him. "Your coming with us?" asked TK. "Ofcourse, I'm not letting you get killed by Matt, Besides, I'm here to guide to the holy city of Pentagulia" said Tai. TK looked at Gatomon. "Well, It looks like we have a new traveling partner" said TK. They then looked out at the desert. "Kari, were coming to save you" said TK. They then entered the desert.
